PROMISSORY NOTE 
  

					
	$2,474,074	 		 	Date: January 1, 2007

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, U.S. Lithotripsy, L.P. (hereinafter “Debtor”) hereby promises to pay to the order of Dr. Paul Thompson (“Payee”) at such place as
Payee or its assigns may designate, the principal sum of $2,474,074 or so much thereof as may be advanced in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, plus accrued interest thereon as described below. 

This promissory note is and shall be payable at the times and in the amounts set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto: provided that upon
a Change in Control of U.S. Lithotripsy, L.P., this promissory note shall be immediately due and payable in its entirety on the date the Change in Control occurs. For purposes of this provision, a “Change in Control” shall be
deemed to have occurred if (A) a person or group of affiliated persons collectively owning less than 50% of all of U.S. Lithotripsy, L.P.’s outstanding partnership interests as of the date of this promissory note is or becomes the
beneficial owner(s), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the combined partnership interests of U.S. Lithotripsy, L.P. then outstanding; (B) U.S. Lithotripsy merges or consolidates with any entity other than USMD Inc. in a manner in
which U.S. Lithotripsy is not the surviving entity; or (C) the partners of U.S. Lithotripsy, L.P. approve a plan of complete liquidation of U.S. Lithotripsy, L.P. or execute an agreement for the sale or disposition by the partnership of all or
substantially all its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions. Debtor and Payee understand and agree that for so long as USL has any indebtedness payable to Bank of Texas, N.A. this note shall be due and payable in its entirety
only with the express written consent of Bank of Texas, N.A. 
 Interest on the outstanding balance due under this promissory
note shall accrue at a rate of interest equal to the lesser of (i) nine percent per annum (9%), or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Interest Rate”). In the event any payment required under
Exhibit A is not received by the Payee on or before the day on which such payment is due, interest (calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed but computed as if each year consisted of 360 days) shall thereafter accrue on the
unpaid principal balance from time to time owing hereon computed from such date until paid in full, at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (y) the Interest Rate plus one percent (1%) or (z) the maximum rate permitted by applicable
law. Thereafter, payments, whether full or partial, will be applied first to accrued interest and then to the reduction of principal. This promissory note may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty, and interest shall
immediately cease on any amount so prepaid. 
 It is expressly provided and stipulated that notwithstanding any provision of
this promissory note or any other instrument evidencing or securing the loan herein set forth, in no event shall the aggregate of all interest paid or contracted to be paid to Payee by the undersigned (or any guarantors or endorsers) ever exceed the
maximum amount of interest that may lawfully 

  
 1 









 
be charged the undersigned by Payee on the principal balance of this promissory note from time to time advanced and remaining unpaid.

demands or notices of any kind as to this promissory note, diligence in collection hereof and in brining suit hereon, and any notice of, or defense on account of, the extension of time of payment or change in the method of payments, and without
further notice hereby consent to any and all renewals and extensions in the time of payment hereof either before or after maturity and the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon. The undersigned agrees that Payee’s
acceptance of partial or delinquent payments or failure of Payee to exercise any right or remedy contained herein or in any instrument given as security for the payment of this promissory note shall not be a waiver of any obligation of the
undersigned to Payee or constitute waiver of any similar default subsequently occurring. 
 The undersigned Debtor expressly
agrees that in the event of default in the payment of this promissory note, Payee, or the holder hereof may, at is option, without notice of nonpayment, demand for payment, presentment of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, declare
the principal of this promissory note and all interest then accrued at once due and payable, and Payee or any other holder hereof may immediately exercise its rights hereunder and under any security documents executed in connection herewith. In the
event there is a default under this promissory note, or the same is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or suit is brought on same, or the same is collected through any judicial proceeding whatsoever, or if any action of foreclosure
be had hereon, then the undersigned agrees and promises to pay to the owner and holder, in addition to the other amounts due hereunder, all costs of court and other collection expenses including an additional sum as a reasonable attorney’s fee
of not less than twenty percent (20%) of the unpaid principal and interest then due on the promissory note. Except to the extent that federal law may apply to this transaction, this promissory note shall be governed by Texas law. This
promissory note is made and performable in Tarrant County, Texas and the undersigned agrees that venue for any dispute involving this promissory note shall be in a court of competent jurisdiction in Tarrant County, Texas.
