the Closing or by indicating such fact on a Schedule to the Agreement. With
respect to any such required consent not obtained prior to the Closing, this
Agreement and the related instruments of transfer shall not constitute an

      1.7 PURCHASE PRICE.

            (a) Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Purchaser

Price in cash and in accordance with Section 2.3(a) hereof and (ii) deposit into

uses a Test Kit performed for any individual, regardless of the
Medicare/Medicaid status of such individual (the "Laboratory Tests"). For
purposes of the preceding sentence, "Scientific Knowledge and Underlying

shall submit to ChoicePoint a detailed statement consisting of the number of
Test Kits distributed, the number of Laboratory Tests performed and a

representatives shall have the right, during regular business hours, for the
duration of the Royalty Term and for three years thereafter, to audit
Purchaser's books of account and records (including, without limitation,
invoices, credits and shipping documents) in the possession or under the control
of Purchaser solely to the extent necessary to verify the accuracy of the
quarterly statements and Sales Royalty payments. Purchaser shall keep all such
books of account, records and documents available for at least three years after
the end of the calendar period to which they relate. ChoicePoint and its
affiliates covenant and agree to maintain the confidentiality of any and all
information obtained during the Royalty Term and not to use such information for
any purposes other than as set forth in this paragraph; provided, further, that
such covenants shall survive the Royalty Term indefinitely with respect to
information qualifying as a trade secret under applicable law or Individually
Identifiable Health Information (as such term is defined and used in the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and all regulations
promulgated pursuant thereto) and for a period of three years after the
expiration or termination of the Royalty Term with respect to all other
information.

      1.8 CLOSING DATE ADJUSTMENTS. No later than the close of business on March
31, 2002, ChoicePoint and Seller shall provide to Purchaser an unaudited balance
sheet that indicates the net current assets of the Seller as of the Closing Date
(i.e., the current assets excluding the Excluded Assets of the Seller on the
Closing Date less the current liabilities excluding the Excluded Liabilities of
the Seller on the Closing Date, minus any applicable allowance for bad debts
related to accounts receivable outstanding as of the Closing Date that are not
Excluded Assets) (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet"). Within five business days
following the receipt by Purchaser of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, Purchaser
shall review such documentation and determine the amount of Seller's net current
assets as of the Closing Date ("Seller's Closing Net Current Assets").
ChoicePoint and Seller shall give Purchaser access to all records and
information reasonably requested by Purchaser to facilitate Purchaser's review
of the Closing Date Balance Sheet. If Seller's Closing Net Current Assets are
less than $475,000, the Initial Purchase Price shall be adjusted in accordance
with Section 1.10 below.

      1.9 POST-CLOSING DATE ADJUSTMENTS. Seller guarantees that Purchaser will
collect one hundred percent (100%) of Seller's accounts receivable (other than
accounts receivable that are Excluded Assets), minus any applicable allowance
for bad debts related to such accounts receivable (the "Accounts Receivable"),
outstanding as of the Closing Date (the "Guarantee") all as reflected in the
Closing Date Balance Sheet, within 120 calendar days after the Closing Date (the
"Due Date"). Within five business days after the Due Date, Purchaser shall
calculate the amount of Accounts Receivable that remain uncollected as of the
Due Date (the "Accounts Receivable Shortfall"). Purchaser shall furnish such
calculations to Seller along with the Closing Date Balance Sheet and an
itemization that includes: (i) the amounts, by customer name, that remain
uncollected as of the Due Date; and (ii) the amount of those Accounts Receivable
re-billed to such customers but uncollected as of the Due Date. Purchaser shall
make a reasonable good faith effort to collect the Accounts Receivable in a
commercially reasonable and diligent manner. In the event the Guarantee is not
satisfied in full by the Due Date, the Initial Purchase Price shall be adjusted
in accordance with Section 1.10 below.

      1.10 INITIAL PURCHASE PRICE ADJUSTMENTS, ESCROW AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

            (a) If Seller's Closing Net Current Assets are less than $475,000 or
the Guarantee is not satisfied in full by the Due Date (collectively, the
"Trigger Events"), or upon the occurrence of both Trigger Events, the Escrow
Agent shall be instructed to pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the lesser of
(i) $100,000 and (ii) the sum of (x) the amount by which $475,000 exceeds
Seller's Closing Net Current Assets and (y) the Accounts Receivable Shortfall
(the "Purchase Price Adjustment"). The remainder of the Escrow Funds shall be
paid to Seller and, to the extent applicable, Purchaser shall assign to Seller
all uncollected Accounts Receivable for which a Purchase Price Adjustment was
made. If Seller's Closing Net Current Assets are equal to or greater than
$475,000 but the Guarantee is not satisfied in full by the Due Date, the Escrow
Agent shall be instructed to pay to Seller an amount equal to $100,000 minus the
Accounts Receivable Shortfall and pay to the Purchaser the amount of the
Accounts Receivable Shortfall. If the Purchase Price Adjustment exceeds
$100,000, ChoicePoint and/or the Seller shall remit the balance of the Purchase
Price Adjustment to Purchaser by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
such bank accounts as Purchaser has instructed ChoicePoint and Seller in writing
within five days of Purchaser's request. If Seller's Closing Net Current Assets
are equal to or greater than $475,000 and Purchaser has collected one hundred
percent (100%) of the Accounts Receivable by the Due Date, the Escrow Agent
shall be instructed to pay all of the Escrow Funds to Seller.

            (b) In the event of a dispute or disagreement between Purchaser and
Seller as to any portion of either the Closing Date Balance Sheet or Seller's
Closing Net Assets that Purchaser and Seller are unable to resolve, either
Purchaser or Seller may elect that the items remaining in dispute be submitted
for resolution to a national independent certified public accounting firm
selected by mutual agreement of Purchaser and Seller (the "Accountants"). The
determination of the Accountants as to the issue(s) in dispute shall be final,
binding and conclusive on the parties hereto. The fees and disbursements of the
Accountants will be paid by the non-prevailing party or proportionally if the
award is divided among the Purchaser and Seller. Purchaser and Seller hereby
agree to cooperate and work in good faith and as expeditiously as reasonably
possible to resolve any and all disputes and disagreements.

<PAGE>

      3.1 ORGANIZATION AND QUALIFICATION. ChoicePoint and Seller are
corporations duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Georgia and Kansas, respectively, and have the full
corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate their properties as they
now do and to carry on their businesses as they are presently being conducted.
Seller's failure to be duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business,
and to be in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of its
properties owned or leased or the nature of its activities makes such
qualification necessary, will not and could not have a "Material Adverse
Effect." As used in this Agreement, the term "Material Adverse Effect" shall
mean a material adverse effect on the Business, financial condition, results of
operations, properties, assets or liabilities of the Seller taken as a whole, or
on the ability of the Seller to enter into this Agreement and perform its
obligations hereunder.

      3.2 AUTHORITY RELATIVE TO THIS AGREEMENT. Each of ChoicePoint and Seller
has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement,
the Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, and the
Lease Agreement (collectively, and together with any certificates, exhibits and
schedules herein and therein, the certificates, exhibits and schedules herein
and therein, the "Transaction Documents") and to perform its obligations
hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary
action on the part of each of ChoicePoint and the Seller, and no other corporate
proceedings on the part of ChoicePoint or Seller are necessary to authorize this
Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been
duly executed and delivered by each of ChoicePoint and the Seller and constitute
the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of such entities, enforceable in
accordance with their terms. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Letter,
neither ChoicePoint nor the Seller is subject to or obligated under any
provision of (a) its respective Certificates of Incorporation or Bylaws, (b) any
contract to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (c) any license,
franchise or permit, or (d) any law, regulation, order, judgment or decree,
which would be breached, violated or defaulted (with or without due notice or
lapse of time or both) or in respect of which a right of termination or
acceleration or a loss of a material benefit or agreement or any encumbrance on
any of its assets would be created or suffered by its execution and performance
of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, except (as to clauses (b),
(c) or (d) above) where such breach, violation, right of termination or
acceleration, or encumbrance, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a
Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Letter, neither
the execution of the Transaction Documents nor the consummation of the
transactions contemplated herein and therein will require the consent or
approval of or registration or filing with any federal, state or local
government or any court, administrative or regulatory agency or commission or
other governmental authority or agency, domestic or foreign, other than where

other governmental authority or agency, domestic or foreign, other than where
the failure to obtain such consents or approvals or to make any such
registration or filing would not have individually or in the aggregate a
Material Adverse Effect on or prevent or materially delay Purchaser from
performing its obligations under this Agreement.

      5. ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS.

      5.1 EXPENSES. All fees and expenses incurred in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party
incurring such fees or expenses.

      5.2 EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS.

            (a) Prior to or at the Closing, Purchaser may offer employment to
some or all Seller Employees, in the Purchaser's sole discretion, upon such
terms and conditions as shall be determined by Purchaser in its sole discretion.
ChoicePoint and Seller shall use all reasonable business efforts to assist and
support Purchaser in hiring all Seller Employees that Purchaser shall seek to
hire as of the Closing Date. The Seller will retain all of the Benefit Plans
currently maintained by the Seller as of the date of this Agreement, and
Purchaser will not assume any obligations under any such plans. ChoicePoint and
Seller will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser (and its directors,
officers, employees and affiliates) with respect to such Benefit Plans for and
against any and all claims, actions, judgments or causes of action based


                                       20
<PAGE>

upon or arising out of or otherwise in respect of any such plan. Unless
prohibited by law, the Seller shall provide to Purchaser all personnel records
for the employees of the Seller hired by Purchaser on the date following the
Closing (the "Hired Employees"), including, without limitation, names, social
security numbers, dates of hire, dates of birth, number of hours worked each
year, and salary history. ChoicePoint and Seller hereby agree not to employ,
directly or indirectly, for a period of 12 months after the Closing Date, any
Seller Employee to whom Purchaser has offered employment prior to or on the
Closing Date and who decides not to accept employment with Purchaser. At the
Closing, Purchaser shall provide ChoicePoint and Seller with a list of Hired
Employees. All Hired Employees covered under Seller's health insurance plans who
elect coverage under Purchaser's health insurance plan shall be covered
effective 12:01 a.m. on the date following the Closing.

            (b) Without limiting any of the provisions herein, Purchaser will
not assume any of the Benefit Plans, or any rights, duties, obligations or
liabilities thereunder, nor shall it become a successor employer or be
responsible in any way for Seller's or a common control entity's (as such term
is defined under section 4.14(a) or (b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
such term may be amended from time to time) participation in or obligations or
responsibilities with respect to any Benefit Plan, nor shall it be obligated by
this Agreement to make any provision with respect to employee benefits after the
Closing Date, except as required by this Section 5.3 and by Section 1.4(b) other
than pursuant to rollover to Purchaser's 401k plan as elected by individual
Hired Employees. No assets of any Benefit Plan shall be transferred to Purchaser
or to any plan of Purchaser other than pursuant to rollover to Purchaser's 401k
plan as elected by individual Hired Employees. Seller shall, after the Closing
Date, comply with the continuation coverage requirements of Section 601 through
609 of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code with respect to the Hired Employees;
provided, however, that any such continuing coverage obligations resulting from
a qualifying event that occurs after such Hired Employees are enrolled in
Purchaser's health plan shall be the responsibility of Purchaser.

            (c) To the extent permitted by law, Purchaser will be permitted
reasonable access to records of employees of Seller and ChoicePoint prior to
Closing for the purpose of setting up Purchaser's benefit plans for Hired
Employees.

            5.3 RIGHTS TO USE NAME. After the Closing, Purchaser may use the
names "ChoicePoint Health Systems, Inc." and "ChoicePoint Health Systems" for
purposes limited solely to the use of such names in conjunction with the
collection of Accounts Receivable and exhausting the existing inventory and
supplies of the Appraise(TM) test kits and related marketing materials where
such names are pre-printed on such inventory and supplies. In connection
therewith and for such purposes, Seller grants Purchaser a temporary,
non-exclusive, non-assignable, fully-paid, no-fee license to use those names for
a period of two years after the Closing or until the inventory is exhausted,
whichever period is shorter.

      5.4 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Upon the reasonable request of any party to this
Agreement, each party agrees to take any and all actions, including, without
limitation, the execution of certificates, documents, or instruments necessary
or appropriate to give effect to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement.


                                       21
<PAGE>

      5.5 BULK SALES LAW. As an inducement to Purchaser to waive compliance with
the provisions of any applicable bulk sales or transfer laws, Seller hereby
agrees that all of its debts, obligations and liabilities which are not
expressly assumed by Purchaser under this Agreement will be paid and discharged
by Seller as and when they become due and payable in the ordinary course of the
Business. ChoicePoint and the Seller, jointly and severally, further agree to
indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from any and all liabilities incurred by
Purchaser by reason of or arising out of claims made by creditors with respect
to any non-compliance with any applicable bulk sales or transfer laws (except to
the extent such claims constitute Assumed Liabilities).

      5.6 NOTICE OF EMPLOYEE'S TERMINATION. If Seller so requests in writing and
identifies therein the employees of the Seller hired by Purchaser pursuant to
this Agreement which have balances in their 401(k) accounts maintained by Seller
as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall inform Seller of any termination of any
such employee's employment with Purchaser within a reasonable period of time
after such termination.

      5.7 FURTHER ACTION. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this
Agreement, each of ChoicePoint and the Seller shall use all commercially
reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions and to do or cause
to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and
regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. Without derogating from the above, ChoicePoint shall cause
Seller to take all actions and meet all obligations under this Agreement.

      5.8 ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION. If and to the extent Purchaser shall
decide to create audited financials for CHS, Inc. for any period prior to the
Closing, Seller and ChoicePoint shall provide any relevant information and, at
Purchaser's expense, assist Purchaser in creating such financials.

      5.9 ACCESS TO INFORMATION AFTER CLOSING.

            (a) At any time after the Closing Date, Seller and ChoicePoint shall
give to Purchaser and to its counsel, accountants and other representatives
reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice to all
books, commitments, agreements, records and files of Seller retained by Seller
and/or ChoicePoint relating to the Business and the Assets.

            (b) At any time after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall give to
ChoicePoint and Seller and to its counsel, accountants and other representatives
reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice to all
books, commitments, agreements, records and files of CHS, Inc. assigned or
transferred to Purchaser and relating to the operation of Seller before the
Closing and after the Closing as described in Section 5.5 herein.

      5.10 SUPPLEMENTAL NOTICES. ChoicePoint and Seller shall promptly notify
Purchaser in writing of, and furnish any information that Purchaser may
reasonably request with respect to any claim, litigation, proceeding or
governmental investigation threatened or asserted by or against Seller relating
to the Business or the Assets or any material development with respect to


                                       22
<PAGE>

any such claim, litigation, proceeding or investigation or any other material
event affecting the Business. Each party shall notify the other party in writing
of any event or condition that would cause any of the conditions to such party's
obligation to consummate the transaction not to be fulfilled or that would have
been required to have been disclosed to the other party under this Agreement if
such event or situation would have occurred or existed prior to the execution of
this Agreement.

      5.11 REFERRALS; COMMUNICATIONS. From the date of the Closing, ChoicePoint
or Seller will promptly refer to Purchaser any clients, suppliers or any other
person who may contact Seller with respect to the Business by person, telephone,
faxes, e-mails, Seller's Web site or otherwise and send to Purchaser any assets
or any other materials or communications received from customers or users of any
of the Assets or otherwise in connection with the Business (other than with
respect to any Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities). In addition, to the
extent Seller's telephone and facsimile numbers are not assignable to Purchaser,
ChoicePoint and Seller shall allow Purchaser exclusive use of such telephone and
facsimile numbers (and Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for such use) for as
long as Purchaser remains in the premises in which Seller has operated the
Business prior to Closing.

      5.12 UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE MATTERS. The parties agree that during
the time that it takes for the United States Postal Service to assign, transfer,
change or otherwise re-establish the names and titling of the business reply and
out-bound business permits related to such postal services, Seller will maintain
its existing debit bank account for the United States Postal Service CAPS
account until a new debit account can be appropriately established by Purchaser
with the United States Postal Service. Purchaser will reimburse Seller for all
postal expenses charged to Seller's account during such time for deductions that
are attributable to Purchaser's operation of the Business after the Closing
Date.

      5.13. COOPERATION AS TO COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. Seller agrees
that, with respect to checks and other commercial paper received by or made
payable to Seller as of and subsequent to the Closing Date that comprise payment
for accounts receivable (the "Interim Funds"), Seller shall either (i) provide a
limited Power of Attorney to Purchaser in order to enable Purchaser to deposit
such Interim Funds into Purchaser's account or (ii) endorse such Interim Funds
directly over to Purchaser. In either event, Seller shall forward such Interim
Funds to Purchaser within five business days of their receipt.

<PAGE>

      7.4 LIMITATION ON LIABILITY.

            (a) Notwithstanding anything else contained herein to the contrary,
but subject to Section 7.4(c) hereof, no party hereto shall be entitled to
indemnification under the provisions of this Article 7, unless and until the

indemnification under this Article 7 exceeds $25,000, in which event all Losses
shall be recoverable (the "Indemnity Threshold").

            (b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
maximum aggregate liability of the Seller and ChoicePoint on the one hand and
Purchaser on the other hand pursuant to this Article 7 shall be an amount equal
to the amounts paid or payable by Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.7 hereof. (the

      7.5 ADMINISTRATION OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.

            (a) Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification under this
Article 7, the party entitled to indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") shall
promptly notify the other party or parties obligated to provide indemnification
under this Agreement (each an "Indemnifying Party") of the claim and, when
known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim. In the event of any
claim for indemnification hereunder resulting from or in connection with any
claim or legal proceeding by a person who is not a party to this Agreement (a
"Third Party Claim"), such notice shall also specify, if known, the amount or a
good faith estimate of the amount of the Losses arising therefrom and shall
identify with reasonable specificity the basis for the Third Party Claim, the
facts giving rise to the Third Party Claim, and the amount of the Third Party
Claim (or, if such amount is not yet known, a reasonable estimate of the amount
of the Third Party Claim). The Indemnified Party shall make available to the
Indemnifying Party copies of all relevant documents and records in its
possession. Failure to give prompt or accurate notice shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligation to indemnify except to the extent that the
Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the delay in giving notice.

            (b) The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise or
voluntarily enter into any binding agreement to settle or compromise, or consent
to entry of any judgment arising from, any such claim or proceeding except in
accordance with this Section 7.5. With respect to any Third Party Claim, if the
Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the
Indemnified Party against any Losses that may result from such Third Party
Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall undertake the defense thereof by
representatives of its own choosing reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified
Party. The Indemnified Party or any other


                                       26
<PAGE>

Party shall have the right to participate in any such defense of a Third Party
Claim with advisory counsel of its own choosing at its own expense. Assuming
they have received reasonably adequate advance notice of a covered claim, in the
event the Indemnifying Party, within 15 days of receiving notice of any Third
Party Claim, fails to assume the defense as described in Section 7.5(a) above,
the Indemnified Party will have the right to undertake the defense, compromise
or settlement of such Third Party Claim on behalf of, and for the account of,
the Indemnifying Party, at the expense and risk of the Indemnifying Party.

representatives, successors and assigns. This Bill of Sale may be executed in

                  NONCOMPETITION AND NONSOLICITATION AGREEMENT

         THIS NONCOMPETITION AND NONSOLICITATION AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is
made and entered into this 6th day of February, 2002 by and among MATRIA
HEALTHCARE, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Purchaser" or "Matria"), CHOICEPOINT
SERVICES, INC., a Georgia corporation ("ChoicePoint"), and CHOICEPOINT HEALTH
SYSTEMS, INC., a Kansas corporation ("CHS, Inc."). ChoicePoint and CHS, Inc. are
sometimes referred to collectively as the "Companies" and individually as a
"Company."

                                   BACKGROUND:

         A. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Purchaser is
acquiring substantially all of the assets of CHS, Inc. pursuant to the terms of
that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), dated as of
February 6, 2002, among Matria, ChoicePoint and CHS, Inc. Terms used and not
otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the
Purchase Agreement.

         B. As a material inducement for Purchaser to enter into the Purchase
Agreement, each Company has agreed to enter into this Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION of the premises, the mutual
promises covenants and agreements contained herein, Ten Dollars ("$10.00) in
hand paid, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

         1. DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms
shall have the following respective meanings:

         (a) "Competing Business" shall mean a business that, wholly or partly,
directly or indirectly, is engaged in providing, selling, or marketing
direct-to-consumer laboratory A1c, MicroAlbumin and lipids testing and related
services pertaining to the diabetes, cardiovascular and hypertension patient
populations.

         (b) "Competitive Position" shall mean: (i) a Company's direct or
indirect equity ownership (excluding ownership of less than 5% of the
outstanding common stock of any publicly held corporation) management or control
of any portion of any Competing Business; or (ii) any Company, directly or
indirectly, managing, operating or serving as a consultant, lender, joint
venturer, partner, agent, advisor or independent contractor of or to any
Competing Business.


<PAGE>

         (c) "Confidential Information" shall mean all information belonging to
CHS, Inc., used by CHS, Inc. in the Business or disclosed to CHS, Inc. by any
third party that does not constitute a Trade Secret and that is not publicly
available.

         (d) "Covenant Period" shall mean the period of time commencing on the
date hereof and continuing for a period of four (4) years hereafter.

         (e) "Restricted Territory" shall mean the United States of America.

         (f) "Trade Secrets" shall mean the trade secrets of CHS, Inc. as
defined under applicable law.

         2. CONFIDENTIALITY. Each Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that
the Trade Secrets and Confidential Information represent a substantial
investment of Purchaser and that any unauthorized disclosure or use of any the
Trade Secrets or Confidential Information or any other violation of the
confidentiality provisions of this Section 2, would be wrongful and could cause
immediate and irreparable injury to Purchaser. Accordingly, each Company hereby
agrees that it will not, without the express prior written consent of Purchaser,
distribute, sell, market, publish, disclose, transfer, assign, disseminate or
otherwise communicate to any other person or entity, or use, copy or appropriate
for or on behalf of itself or any other person or entity: (a) any Confidential
Information during the Covenant Period; or (b) any Trade Secret at any time
during which such information constitutes a trade secret under applicable law.
Each Company agrees that it will adhere to all reasonable confidentiality
requirements that Purchaser may establish from time to time and immediately
notify Matria of any unauthorized disclosure or use of any Trade Secret or
Confidential Information by it. Each Company also agrees to assist Purchaser, at
the expense of Purchaser and to the extent necessary, in the procurement or any
protection of the rights of Purchaser in or to any Trade Secrets or Confidential
Information.

         3. NONCOMPETITION. During the Covenant Period, each Company agrees that
it will not, without the prior written consent of Matria, either directly or
indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other person or entity, accept,
enter into or take any action in furtherance of a Competitive Position in the
Restricted Territory.

         4. NONSOLICITATION OF CUSTOMERS, SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS. During the
Covenant Period, each Company agrees that it will not, without the prior written
consent of Matria, either directly or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with
any other person or entity, solicit, entice or induce any customer, supplier or
distributor of Purchaser or any of its affiliates (or any actively sought
prospective customer, supplier or distributor of Purchaser or any of its
respective affiliates) for or on behalf of any Competing Business.

         5. NONSOLICITATION OF PERSONNEL. During the Covenant Period, each
Company agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Matria,
either directly or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other person or
entity, solicit or attempt to solicit any "key or material" employee,
consultant, contractor or other personnel of Matria or any of its affiliates
(including, without limitation, any employees previously employed by CHS, Inc.)
to terminate, alter or lessen that party's affiliation with Matria or any of its
affiliates or to violate the terms of any agreement


<PAGE>

or understanding between such employee, consultant, contractor or other person
and Matria or any of its affiliates, as the case may be. Each Company also
agrees that, for eighteen (18) months hereafter, it will not, without the prior
written consent of Matria, either directly or indirectly, alone or in
conjunction with any other person or entity, employ or contract with any "key or
material" employee, consultant, contractor or other personnel of Matria or any
of its affiliates (including, without limitation, any employees previously
employed by CHS, Inc.). For purposes of this Section 5, "key or material"
employees, consultants, contractors or other personnel shall mean such persons
or entities who have direct access to or have had substantial exposure to
Confidential Information or Trade Secrets.

         6. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. Each Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that
the covenants contained in Sections 2, 3, 4 and 5 hereof (the "Protective
Covenants") are made by it (and shall be treated) as "ancillary to the sale of
the Business" under the Purchase Agreement. Each Company further acknowledges
and agrees that the Protective Covenants are reasonable as to time, scope and
territory given the need of Purchaser to protect the Trade Secrets and
Confidential Information and given the substantial benefits which the Companies
shall receive, directly or indirectly, as a result of the transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. In the event any covenant or agreement
in this Agreement shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to
be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or
over too great a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive in
any other respect, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum
period of time for which it may be enforceable and/or over the maximum
geographical area as to which it may be enforceable and/or to the maximum extent
in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, as all determined by
such court in such action.

         7. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Each Company hereby acknowledges and agrees
that any breach of a Protective Covenant by it will cause irreparable damage to
Purchaser, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and that
the remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, each
Company agrees that, in addition to any other remedy that may be available at
law, in equity, or hereunder, Purchaser shall be entitled to seek specific
performance and injunctive relief, without posting bond or other security to
enforce or prevent any violation of any of the Protective Covenants by it.

         8. MISCELLANEOUS.

the lien or written request by Landlord. Tenant shall give Landlord written
notice of Tenant's intention to perform work on the Premises which might result
in any claim of lien, at least ten (10) days prior to the commencement of such
work to enable Landlord to post and record a notice of nonresponsibility or
other notice deemed proper before commencement of any such work. If Tenant fails
to remove any lien within the prescribed ten (10) day period, then Landlord may
do so at Tenant's expense and Tenant's reimbursement to Landlord for such
amount, including attorneys' fees and costs, shall be deemed Additional Rent.

contractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees, guests, invitees, or
visitors in or about the Building or Premises or arising from any breach or
default under this Lease by Tenant, or arising from any accident, injury, or
damage, howsoever and by whomsoever caused, to any person or property, occurring
in or about the Building or Premises. This indemnification shall survive
termination or expiration of this Lease. This provision shall not be construed
to make Tenant responsible for loss, damage, liability or expense resulting from
injuries to third parties caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of
Landlord, or its officers, contractors, licensees, agents, employees, or
invitees.

                                  ARTICLE VII.

         SECTION 7.1 CONDEMNATION.

         (a) Total Taking. In the event of a taking or damage related to the
exercise of the power of eminent domain, by any agency, authority, public
utility, person, corporation or entity empowered to condemn property (including
without limitation a voluntary conveyance by Landlord in lieu of such taking or
condemnation) (individually, a "Taking") of (i) the entire Premises, or (ii) so
much of the Premises as to prevent or substantially impair its use by Tenant
during the Term of this Lease in Landlord's reasonable judgment (individually, a
"Total Taking"), the rights of Tenant under this Lease and the leasehold estate
of Tenant in and to the Premises shall cease and terminate as of the date upon
which title to the property taken passes to and vests in the condemnor or the
effective date of any order for possession if issued prior to the date title
vests in the condemnor ("Date of Taking").

         (b) Partial Taking. In the event of a Taking of only a part of the
Premises or of a part of the Land which does not constitute a Total Taking
during the Term of this Lease (individually, a "Partial Taking"), the rights of
Tenant under this Lease and the leasehold estate of Tenant in and to the portion
of the property taken shall cease and terminate as of the Date of Taking, and an
adjustment to the Rent shall be made based upon the reduced area of the
Premises.

         (c) Termination by Landlord. In the event of a Taking of the Building
such that, in Landlord's reasonable opinion, the Building cannot be restored in
a manner that makes its continued operation practically or economically
feasible, Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within
ninety (90) days after the date notice of such Taking is received by Landlord.

         (d) Rent Adjustment. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to this
Section 7.1, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any prepaid unaccrued Rent and any
other sums due and owing to Tenant (less any sums then due and owing Landlord by
Tenant), and Tenant shall pay to Landlord any remaining sums due and owing
Landlord under this Lease, each prorated as of the Date of Taking where
applicable.

         (e) Repair If this Lease is not terminated as provided for in this
Section 7.1, then Landlord at its expense shall repair and restore the Building,
and/or the Premises to approximately the same condition that existed at the time
Tenant entered into possession of the Premises, wear and tear excepted (and
Landlord shall have no obligation to repair or restore Tenant's improvements to
the Premises or Tenant's Property), except for the part taken, so as to render
the Building as complete an architectural unit as practical, but only to the
extent of the condemnation award received by Landlord for the damage.

         SECTION 7.2 FORCE MAJEURE. Landlord shall not be required to perform
any term, provision, agreement, condition or covenant in this Lease so long as
such performance is delayed or prevented by "Force Majeure", which shall mean
acts of God, strikes, injunctions, lockouts, material or labor restrictions by
any governmental authority, civil riots, floods, fire, theft, public enemy,
insurrection, war, court order, and requisition or order of governmental body or
authority. Neither Landlord nor any mortgagee shall be liable or responsible to
Tenant for any loss or damage to any property or person occasioned by any Force
Majeure, or for any damage or inconvenience which may arise through repair or
alteration of any part of the Building or the Premises as a result of any Force
Majeure.

         SECTION 7.3 FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY DAMAGE. (a) Damage. If any portion
of the Premises shall be destroyed or damaged by fire or any other casualty,
Tenant shall immediately give notice thereof to Landlord. If any portion of the
Premises shall be destroyed or damaged by fire or any other casualty then, (i)
at the option of Landlord, Landlord may restore and repair the portion of the
Premises damaged and, if the Premises are rendered untenantable in whole or in
part by reason of such casualty as determined by Landlord, Tenant shall be
entitled to an equitable abatement of the Rent hereunder until such time as the
damaged portion of the Premises (exclusive of any of Tenant's Property or
Tenant's improvements) are repaired or restored by Landlord to the extent
required


<PAGE>

hereby or Landlord may terminate this Lease whereupon all Rent accrued up to the
time of such termination and any other sums due and owing shall be paid by
Tenant to Landlord (less any sums then due and owing Tenant by Landlord) and any
remaining sums due and owing by Landlord to Tenant shall be paid to Tenant. In
no event shall Landlord have any obligation to repair or restore any such
destruction or damage.

         (b) Repair. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to give Tenant
written notice of its decisions, estimates or elections under this Section 7.3
within sixty (60) days after any such damage or destruction. If Landlord has
elected to repair and restore the Premises, this Lease shall continue in full
force and effect, and the repairs will be made within a reasonable time
thereafter (not to exceed one (1) year), subject to the provisions of Section
7.2 of this Lease. Should the repairs not be completed within that period, both
Landlord and Tenant shall each have the option of terminating this Lease by
written letter of termination delivered within thirty (30) days of the
expiration of such repair period. If this Lease is terminated as herein
permitted, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any prepaid Rent (unaccrued as of the
date of damage or destruction) and any other sums due and owing by Landlord to
Tenant (less any sums then due and owing Landlord by Tenant) and any remaining
sums due and owing by Tenant to Landlord shall be paid to Landlord. If Landlord
has elected to repair and reconstruct the Premises to the extent stated above,
the Initial Term will be extended for a time equal to the period from the
occurrence of such damage to the completion of such repair and reconstruction.
If Landlord elects to rebuild the Premises, Landlord shall only be obligated to
restore or rebuild the Premises to approximately the same condition as existed
at the time Tenant entered into possession of the Premises, wear and tear
excepted and not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of Tenant's
Property or Tenant's leasehold improvements. Notwithstanding anything contained
in this Lease to the contrary, if Landlord shall elect to repair and restore the
Premises pursuant to this Section 7.3, in no event shall Landlord be required to
expend under this Article VII any amount in excess of the proceeds actually
received from the insurance carried by Landlord pursuant to Section 7.4(a) of
this Lease. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to
Tenant or injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from such damage
or destruction or the disregard of the repair thereof.

         SECTION 7.4 INSURANCE.

         (a) Tenant's Comprehensive General Liability Insurance. Tenant shall,
at its sole cost and expense, procure and maintain during the Term of this Lease
commercial general liability insurance (including personal injury liability,
premises/operation, property damage, independent contractors and broad form
contractual coverage in support of the indemnifications of Landlord by Tenant
under this Lease) in amounts of not less than a combined single limit of
$3,000,000. A certificate evidencing each such policy shall be deposited with
Landlord by Tenant upon request.

         (b) Tenant's Property Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and keep in force
during the term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance covering loss or
damage to the Premises, in the amount of the full replacement value thereof,
against all perils included within the classification of fire, extended
coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, flood (if available), and special
extended perils ("all risk" as such term is used in the insurance industry).
Said insurance shall provide for payment of loss thereunder to Landlord. If the
Tenant shall fail to procure and maintain said insurance Landlord may, but shall
not be required to, procure and maintain the same, but at the expense of Tenant.

         (c) Insurance Policies. Insurance required hereunder shall be in
companies holding a "General Policyholders Rating" of at least A VIII or better,
or such other rating as maybe required by a lender having a lien on this
Premises, as set forth in the most current issue of "A.M. Best's Insurance
Guide." Tenant shall deliver to the other party copies of policies of such
insurance or certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of such insurance
with loss payable clauses as required by this Article 7. No such policy shall be
cancellable or subject to reduction of coverage or other modification except
after thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant shall, at least
thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of such policies, furnish Landlord with
renewals or "binders" thereof, or Landlord may order such insurance and charge
the cost thereof to Tenant, which amount shall be payable by Tenant upon demand.
Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which invalidate the insurance
policies referred to in Section 7.4. If Tenant does or permits to be done
anything which shall increase the cost of


<PAGE>

the insurance policies referred to in Section 7.4, then Tenant shall forthwith
upon Landlord's demand reimburse Landlord for any additional premiums
attributable to any act or omission or operation of Tenant causing such increase
in the cost of insurance if Landlord actually paid such additional cost.

         SECTION 7.5 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS. Each party hereto waives all
rights of recovery, claims, actions or causes of actions arising in any manner
in its (the "Injured Party's") favor and against the other party for loss or
damage to the Injured Party's property located within or constituting a part or
all of the Land or the Premises, to the extent the loss or damage: (a) is
covered by the Injured Party's insurance; or (b) would have been covered by the
insurance the Injured Party is required to carry under this Lease, whichever is
greater, regardless of the cause or origin, including the sole, contributory,
partial, joint, comparative or concurrent negligence of the other party. This
waiver also applies to each party's directors, officers, employees,
shareholders, partners, representatives and agents. All insurance carried by
either Landlord or Tenant covering the losses and damages described in this
Section 7.5 shall provide for such waiver of rights of subrogation by the
Injured Party's insurance carrier to the maximum extent that the same is
permitted under the laws and regulations governing the writing of insurance
within the state in which the Building is located. Both parties hereto are
obligated to obtain such a waiver and provide evidence to the other party of
such waiver. The waiver set forth in this Section 7.5 shall be in addition to,
and not in substitution for, any other waivers, indemnities or exclusions of
liability set forth in this Lease.

                                  ARTICLE VIII.

         SECTION 8.1 DEFAULT BY TENANT. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events shall constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease:

         (a) Tenant shall fail to pay to Landlord any Rent or any other monetary
charge due from Tenant hereunder as and when due and payable;

         (b) Tenant breaches or fails to comply with any term, provisions,
conditions or covenant of this Lease, other than as described in Section 8.1(a);

         (c) A petition in bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding or petition
for receivership is filed by or against Tenant; or

         (d) If Tenant should remain in the Premises beyond May 31, 2002 without
the prior written consent of Landlord.

         SECTION 8.2 LANDLORD'S REMEDIES. Upon occurrence of any default by
Tenant under this Lease and (i) immediately, if the event of default is that
described in Section 8.l(a); or (ii) if the events described in Section 8.1 (b)
(to the extent no separate cure or grace period is provided to Tenant under this
Lease) are not cured within fifteen (15) days after written notice from Landlord
of such default, the Landlord shall have the option to do and perform any one or
more of the following in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedy
or right permitted it by law or in equity by this Lease:

         (a) Continue this Lease in full force and effect, and this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect as long as Landlord does not terminate this
Lease, and Landlord shall have the right to collect Rent, Additional Rent and
other charges when due. Landlord may also reenter and repossess the Premises by
forcible entry, detainer suit or otherwise without terminating this Lease with
or without process of law without being liable for damages or trespass.

         (b) Terminate this Lease;

         (c) Enter upon the Premises and do whatever Tenant is obligated to do
under the terms of this Lease; and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord on demand
for any expenses which Landlord may incur in


<PAGE>

effecting compliance with Tenant's obligations under this Lease plus fifteen

to the terms of this Agreement, shall be discharged from any further obligation
hereunder.

         7.13. LEGAL ACTIONS, INDEMNIFICATION. Escrow Agent shall have no
obligation to take any legal action in connection with this Agreement or towards
its enforcement, or to appear in, prosecute or defend any action or legal
proceeding which would or might involve it in any cost, expense, loss or
liability unless security and indemnity, as provided in this paragraph, shall be
furnished. Purchaser and the Companies jointly and severally agree to indemnify
Escrow Agent and it officers, directors, employees and agents and save Escrow
Agent and its officers, directors, employees and agents harmless from and
against any and all Claims (as hereinafter defined) and Losses (as hereinafter
defined) which may be incurred by Escrow Agent or any of such officers,
directors, employees or agents as a result of Claims asserted against Escrow
Agent or any of such officers, directors, employees or agents as a result of or
in connection with Escrow Agent's capacity as such under this Agreement by any
person or entity. For the purposes hereof, the term "Claims" shall mean all
claims, lawsuits, causes of action or other legal actions and proceedings of
whatever nature brought against (whether by way of direct action, counterclaim,
cross action or impleader) Escrow Agent or any such officer, director, employee
or agent, even if groundless, false or fraudulent, so long as the claim,
lawsuit, cause of action or other legal action or proceeding is alleged or
determined, directly or indirectly, to arise out of, result from, relate to or
be based upon, in whole or in part: (a) the acts or omissions of Purchaser or
the Companies, (b) the appointment of Escrow Agent as escrow agent under this
Agreement, or (c) the performance by Escrow Agent of its powers and duties under
this Agreement; and the term "Losses" shall mean losses, costs, damages,
expenses, judgments and liabilities of whatever nature (including but not
limited to attorneys', accountants' and other professionals' fees, litigation
and court costs and expenses and amounts paid in settlement), directly or
indirectly resulting from, arising out of or relating to one or more Claims.
Upon the written request of Escrow Agent or any such officer, director, employee
or agent (each referred to hereinafter as an "Indemnified Party"), Purchaser and
the Companies jointly and severally agree to assume


                                                                               6
<PAGE>

the investigation and defense of any Claim, including the employment of counsel
acceptable to the applicable Indemnified Party and the payment of all expenses
related thereto and, notwithstanding any such assumption, the Indemnified Party
shall have the right, and Purchaser and the Companies jointly and severally
agree to pay the cost and expense thereof, to employ separate counsel with
respect to any such Claim and participate in the investigation and defense
thereof in the event that such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by
counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such
Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to
either Purchaser or the Companies. Purchaser and the Companies hereby agree that
the indemnifications and protections afforded Escrow Agent in this section shall
survive the termination of the Agreement.

         8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

         8.1. COUNTERPARTS. Whenever in this Agreement Purchaser and the
Companies are to deliver a jointly signed writing to Escrow Agent or jointly
advise Escrow Agent in writing, such writing may in each and all cases be signed
jointly or in counterparts by Purchaser and the Companies and such counterparts
shall be deemed to be one instrument. Further, this Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed an
original; such counterparts shall together constitute but one agreement.

         8.2. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives,
successors and assigns; provided, however, that no assignment, transfer,
conveyance or hypothecation of any right, title or interest in and to the
subject matter of this Agreement shall be binding upon any party, including
Escrow Agent, unless all fees, costs and expenses incident thereto shall have
been paid and then only upon the assent thereto by all parties in writing.

         8.3. MEANING OF TERMS. When necessary herein, all terms used in the
singular shall apply to the plural, and vice versa, and all terms used in the
masculine shall apply to the neuter and feminine genders, and vice versa.

         8.4. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This Agreement is to be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia. Any suit brought
hereon shall be brought in the state or federal courts sitting in Atlanta,
Georgia, the parties hereto hereby waiving any claim or defense that such forum
is not convenient or proper. Each party hereby agrees that any such court shall
have in-personam jurisdiction over it and consents to service of process in any
manner authorized by Georgia law.

         8.5. PARAGRAPH HEADINGS. The headings of the several paragraphs of this
Agreement are inserted solely for convenience of reference and are not a part of
and are not intended to govern, limit or aid in the construction of any term or
provision hereof.

         8.6. ATTORNEY'S FEES. If Escrow Agent, the Companies or Purchaser shall
bring an action against the other by reason of any alleged breach of any
covenant,


                                                                               7
<PAGE>

provision or condition hereof, or otherwise arising out of this Agreement, the
unsuccessful party or parties shall pay to the prevailing party or parties all
attorneys' fees and costs actually incurred by the prevailing party or parties,
in addition to any other relief to which it or they may be entitled. As used in
this Section 8.6, "actual attorneys' fees" or "attorneys' fees actually
incurred" means the full and actual cost of any legal services actually
performed in connection with the matter for which such fees are sought,
calculated on the basis of the usual fees charged by the attorneys performing
such services, and shall not be limited to "reasonable attorneys' fees" as that
term may be defined in statutory or decisional authority.

         8.7. FURTHER ASSURANCES ON OR AFTER CLOSING. Notwithstanding anything
herein or in the Asset Purchase Agreement to the contrary, each party hereto
shall perform such acts and things and make, execute and deliver such written
instruments as shall be reasonably necessary to carry out the terms and
provisions of this Agreement.

         8.8. OTHER PARTIES. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as
giving any person, firm, corporation or other entity, other than the parties
hereto, their successors and permitted assigns, any right, remedy or claim under
or in respect of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

         8.9. TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance of
each of the duties and obligations of the parties hereunder and the satisfaction
of each of the conditions precedent set forth herein.

                              ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT


         THIS ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into
this 6th day of February, 2002 by and among MATRIA HEALTHCARE, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("Purchaser" or "Matria"), CHOICEPOINT SERVICES, INC., a Georgia
corporation ("ChoicePoint"), and CHOICEPOINT HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC., a Kansas
corporation ("CHS, Inc.").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

         WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the
"Purchase Agreement"), dated February 6, 2002, by and among Purchaser,
ChoicePoint and CHS, Inc., Purchaser has agreed to assume and observe, perform
and discharge, as the case may be, as of the Closing Date, certain debts,
liabilities and obligations of CHS, Inc. as set forth more specifically in
Section 1.4 of the Purchase Agreement (collectively, the "Assumed Liabilities");
and

         WHEREAS, Purchaser wishes to enter into this Assumption to carry out
the intent and purpose of the Purchase Agreement to assume from CHS, Inc. the
Assumed Liabilities;

         NOW, THEREFORE, FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION of the premises, the mutual
promises, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. DEFINED TERMS. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms
used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

         2. ASSUMPTION. Purchaser hereby assumes and shall perform or discharge,
on or after the Closing Date, subject to Section 3 hereof, the Assumed
Liabilities.

         3. EXCLUDED LIABILITIES. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein
to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be deemed to have assumed, nor shall
Purchaser assume any of the Excluded Liabilities, as set forth more specifically
in Section 1.5 of the Purchase Agreement.

         4. THIRD PARTIES. The assumption by Purchaser of the Assumed
Liabilities herein provided is not intended by the parties to expand the rights
and remedies of any third party against Purchaser in respect of such Assumed
Liabilities as compared to the rights and remedies which such third party would
have had against either ChoicePoint or CHS, Inc. in respect of such Assumed
Liabilities had Purchaser not consummated the transactions contemplated by the
Purchase Agreement. Purchaser shall have all rights which either ChoicePoint or
CHS, Inc. may have or have had to defend or contest any such claim or demand.


<PAGE>

         5. SUBJECT TO PURCHASE AGREEMENT. The scope, nature and extent of the
Assumed Liabilities are expressly set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Nothing
contained herein shall itself change, amend, extend or alter (nor shall it be
deemed or construed as changing, amending, extending or altering) the terms or
conditions of the Purchase Agreement in any manner whatsoever. This instrument
does not create or establish liabilities or obligations not otherwise created or
existing under or pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In the event of any
conflict or other difference between the Purchase Agreement and this instrument,
the provisions of the Purchase Agreement shall control.

         6. BINDING EFFECT. This Assumption shall be binding upon and shall
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective legal
representatives, successors and assigns.

         7. GOVERNING LAW. The validity and effect of this Assumption and the
rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia,
without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

         8. ASSIGNMENT. No party hereto may assign this Assumption, in whole or
in part, without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any
attempted assignment not in accordance herewith shall be null and void and of no
force and effect. Provided, however, that Matria may assign this Assumption, in
whole or in part, to an affiliate of Matria, without the consent of the other
parties hereto, in which case Matria shall nonetheless remain liable for the
performance of all of its obligations hereunder.

         9. WAIVER; AMENDMENT. No waiver, termination or discharge of this
Assumption, or any of the terms or provisions hereof, shall be binding upon any
party hereto unless confirmed in writing. No waiver by any party hereto of any
term or provision of this Assumption or any default hereunder shall affect such
party's rights thereafter to enforce such term or provision or to exercise any
right or remedy in the event of any other default, whether or not similar. This
Assumption may not be modified or amended except by a writing executed by all
parties hereto.

         10. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each party hereto agrees to take any and all
actions, including the execution of certificates, documents or instruments,
necessary or appropriate to give effect to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Assumption.

         11. COUNTERPARTS; FAX SIGNATURES. This Assumption may be executed in
one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but
all of which together shall constitute the same Assumption. Any signature page
of any such counterpart, or any electronic facsimile thereof, may be attached or
appended to any other counterpart to complete a fully executed counterpart of
this Assumption, and any telecopy or other facsimile transmission of any
signature shall be deemed an original and shall bind such party.
