shall give notice of any disposition of the Collateral as follows: 



          (i)  Manager
shall give Group and each holder of a security interest in the Collateral who has filed with Manager a written request for notice, a written notice stating the
time and place of a public sale, or, if the disposition is to be either a private sale or some other disposition that is not a public sale, the time on or after which the private sale or other
disposition is to be made; 


         (ii)  The
notice described in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be delivered to Group as provided in Section 8.3 of the Management Agreement at least five (5)

prior to the date of such notice; 


        (iii)  If
the disposition is to be a public sale, Manager shall also give notice of the time and place of said sale by publishing a notice at least five (5) calendar days
before the date of the sale in a newspaper of general circulation, if one exists, in the county in which the sale is to be held; 




        (e)   Manager
may, in its own name, or in the name of a designee or nominee, credit bid and purchase at any public sale;

portion of the Secured Obligations which remains unpaid after disposition of the Collateral as provided above shall be paid immediately by Group. Any excess which
exists after disposition of the Collateral and payment in full of the Secured Obligations shall be returned promptly, without interest and subject to the rights of third persons, to Group by Manager. 




        8.2    FURTHER DOCUMENTATION.    Upon the exercise by Manager of any power, right, privilege, or remedy pursuant to
this Security Agreement which requires any consent, approval, registration, qualification, or authorization of any Governmental Authority, Group agrees to execute and deliver, or will cause the
execution and delivery of, all applications, certificates, instruments, assignments, and other documents and papers that Manager or any purchaser of the Collateral may be required to obtain for such
governmental consent, approval, registration, qualification, or authorization. 


        8.3    CUMULATIVE REMEDIES; WAIVERS.    The rights and remedies of Manager under this Security Agreement, the
Management Agreement, and all other agreements contemplated hereby and thereby shall be cumulative. Manager shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the
Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Manager of any one right or remedy shall be deemed an election of remedies, and no waiver by Manager of any default on Group's part shall be deemed a
continuing waiver of any further defaults. No delay by Manager shall constitute a waiver, election or acquiescence with respect to any right or remedy. 




        9.    NOTICES.    All notices or demands by any party hereto to the other party and relating to this Security
Agreement shall be made in the manner set forth in Section 14.6 of the Management Agreement.

        10.1    SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.    This Security Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective
successors and assigns of Group and Manager; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Group may not assign this Security Agreement nor delegate any of its duties hereunder without Manager's prior written consent and
any prohibited assignment or delegation shall be absolutely void. No consent by Manager to an assignment by Group shall release Group

their counsel and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto. 


        10.3    AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.    Any provision of this Security Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to which
Group is a party may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to be bound thereby, and then such amendment or waiver shall be
effective only in the specific instance and specific purpose for which given. 


        10.4    COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION; EFFECTIVENESS.    This Security Agreement may be signed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Security Agreement constitutes the entire agreement

State of California. 


        12.    NO VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAW.    To the extent that any lien or security interest on any Asset(s) granted by
Group herein violates any applicable Health Care Law, the grant of such lien or security interest on such Asset(s) shall be automatically null and void; provided however, that to the extent such lien
or security interest at any time hereafter no longer violates any applicable Health Care
Law, then such lien or security interest shall automatically and without any further action attach and become fully effective at that time (giving effect to any retroactive effect to any change in
applicable law or regulation); and, provided further, that the liens or security interests on other Asset(s) granted by Group herein that do not violate any applicable Health Care Law shall remain at
all times in full force and effect.
