    5. Representations and Warranties By
Holder.  The Holder represents and warrants to the Company as of the
date of this Debenture as follows:

    

    (a)  Investment Intent
Authority.  This Debenture is executed and delivered to the Holder in
reliance upon the Holder's representation to Company that:  (i) the
Holder is acquiring this Debenture and the Warrant for investment for the
Holder's own account, not as nominee or agent, for investment and not with a
view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution or public offering
thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the
"SECURITIES ACT"); and (ii) the Holder has the full right, power, authority and
capacity to make the loan evidenced by this Debenture.

or in equity.

    

    8.  Waivers.  The
Company hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind
to the extent permitted by applicable law.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    9.  Controlling Law;
Attorneys’ Fees.  This Debenture, the Warrant and all matters related
hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws
of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to its principles of conflicts of
laws.  In the event an action is brought to enforce this Debenture,
the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover a reasonable attorney’s fee
and costs to be set by the court.

    

    10.  Purpose of Loan. The
Company represents and warrants that this Debenture evidences an investment made
in the Company made for the purpose of carrying on a business or commercial
enterprise.  There are no restrictions on the use of the loan
proceeds, as long as the same are used for the Company’s business.

    

    11.  No
Usury.  This Debenture is subject to the express condition that at no
time shall the Company be obligated or required to pay interest hereunder at a
rate that could subject the Holder to either civil or criminal liability as a
result of being in excess of the maximum rate that the Company is permitted by
law to contract or agree to pay.  If, by the terms of this Debenture,
the Company is at any time required or obligated to pay interest at a rate in
excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under this Debenture shall be
deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and interest payable
hereunder shall be computed at such maximum rate and the portion of all prior
interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be
deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of this
Debenture.

    

               12.  Waiver
of Trial by Jury.  The Company and the Holder agree that any suit,
action or proceeding, whether claim or counterclaim, brought or instituted by
the Company or the Holder on or with respect to this Debenture, the Warrant or
any event, transaction or occurrence arising out of or in any way connected
therewith or dealing with the parties hereto, shall be tried only by a court and
not by a jury.  THE
COMPANY AND THE HOLDER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

    

    13.  Severability.  In the
event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Debenture shall for
any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision
of this Debenture, but this Debenture shall be construed as if such invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or
therein.

    

    

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
undersigned has caused this Debenture to be executed on the day and year first
above written.

entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock or
any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the
exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall any provision contained herein be
construed to confer upon the holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights
of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of
directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof,
or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights
or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the Shares
purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided
herein.

     

    6.  Mergers.  The
Company shall provide the holder of this Warrant with at least thirty (30) days’
notice of the terms and conditions of any of the following potential
transactions: (i) the sale, lease, exchange, conveyance or other disposition of
all or substantially all of the Company’s property or business, or (ii) its
merger into or consolidation with any other corporation (other than a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), or any transaction (including a merger
or other reorganization) or series of related transactions, in which more than
50% of the voting power of the Company is transferred.

     

    7.  Modification and
Waiver.  This Warrant and any provision hereof may be changed,
waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the
party against which enforcement of the same is sought.

     

    8.  Notices.  Any
notice, request, communication or other document required or permitted to be
given or delivered to the holder hereof or the Company shall be delivered, or
shall be sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each such

Warrant.

of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part
of this Warrant.

Law.  This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the laws of
the State of Oklahoma without regard to its conflicts of law
principles.

case any one or more of the covenants and agreements contained in this Warrant
shall have been breached, the holders hereof (in the case of a breach by the
Company), or the Company (in the case of a breach by a holder), may proceed to
protect and enforce their or its rights either by suit in equity and/or by
action at law, including, but not limited to, an action for damages as a result
of any such breach and/or an action for specific performance of any such
covenant or agreement contained in this Warrant.  In the event an
action or proceeding is brought to enforce any provision of this Warrant, the
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorney’s fees and
costs from the other party.

    12.  Severability.  The
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Warrant in any
jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision
in any other jurisdiction, or affect any other provision of this Warrant, which
shall remain in full force and effect.

     

    13.  Entire
Agreement.  This Warrant constitutes the entire agreement

    FINANCIAL
ARRANGEMENTS AND DISBURSEMENTS

     

    5.1.                     Accounts Receivable.
WellQuest shall purchase the accounts receivable of Practice on a monthly
basis.  The consideration for the purchase shall be the actual
collections from the accounts receivable, but WellQuest shall make a monthly
deposit toward the purchase of the accounts receivable by depositing, by the
10th
day of each month, an amount equal to the expected Practice Revenues for the
previous month’s services into the Practice Account.  All collections
in respect of such accounts receivable shall be deposited in the Practice’s
Lockbox Account, which will be subject to a lockbox agreement, in form and
substance as that required by the Medicare reassignment rules, instructing that
the accounts be swept daily into WellQuest’s bank account with a qualified bank
in Arkansas. To the extent Practice comes into possession of any payments in
respect of such accounts receivable, Practice shall direct such payments to
WellQuest for deposit in WellQuest’s bank account.

    5.2.                     Flow of
Funds.

     

    
      (a)  There
shall be three (3) bank accounts set up for the Practice: the Practice Account,
the Practice Payroll Account, and the Practice Lockbox
Account.

    

     

    
      (b)  In order
to ensure a sufficient flow of revenue into the Practice and to minimize the lag
time between the Practice’s provision of medical services and its payment for
those services, WellQuest agrees to purchase the Practice’s accounts receivable
on a monthly basis, as set forth above in Section 5.1.  WellQuest’s
purchase price deposit for the previous month’s accounts receivable shall be
made into the Practice Account.  Since WellQuest will have already
made the purchase price deposit into the Practice Account, any monies collected
for the Practice from patients and third party payors shall be deposited into
the Practice Lockbox Account, which shall be subject to a “sweep” order
instructing that all funds be swept daily into WellQuest’s bank
account.  Actual collections shall be reconciled against WellQuest’s
purchase price deposit on an on-going monthly basis.

    

     

    
      (c)
The
Practice Account, which shall be funded by the purchase by WellQuest of the
Practice’s accounts receivable, shall be in the Practice’s name, but WellQuest
shall have signatory authority and shall make all disbursements
therefrom.  WellQuest shall account for all monies so disbursed from
the Practice Account.  From the funds in the Practice Account,
WellQuest shall pay the following:

    

     

    
      (i)
$30,000
by the 15th day of
each month following the month of services into the Practice Payroll Account;
and

    

     

    (ii) the
Practice Expenses.

     

    
      (d)
In
the event that WellQuest shall determine that the balance in the Practice
Account will, at any time, be insufficient to fund the $30,000 monthly deposit
into the Practice Payroll Account or to cover current Practice Expenses, then in
such event:

    

     

    (i)
WellQuest shall fund the shortfall for the $30,000 Practice Payroll Account
monthly deposit and/or shall pay such Practice Expenses (the “Physician
Advances”). Physician Advances shall accrue interest until repaid at the rate of
one percent (1%) in excess of the “U.S. Prime Rate” published in the “Money
Rates” section of the Wall Street Journal as determined on the first business
day of each calendar month during the time of the indebtedness; and

     

    
      
         

      

      
        10

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (ii) WellQuest’s
management fee, bonuses, and expenses paid by WellQuest shall accrue, and
Practice shall pay such accrued but unpaid management fees, bonuses and expenses
as the Practice’s cash flow improves.

     

    
      (e)
Physician
Advances, any interest thereon, and accrued management fees and Practice
Operating Expenses paid by WellQuest shall be repaid in succeeding months by an
amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of Practice Operating Profit for each such
month until repaid in full.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Practice
remains obligated to repay all such Physician Advances and to reimburse all
amounts owed to WellQuest regardless of whether there is a Practice Operating
Profit.

    

     

    5.3.                      Management
Fees:  WellQuest shall be compensated for its services as
follows:

     

    
      (a)
a
base management fee equal to 7.5% of the Practice Net Revenues;
and

    

     

    
      (b)
a
performance bonus for efficient management to be calculated as
follows:

    

     

    (i) a
performance ratio (the “Performance Ratio”) will be calculated by dividing the
Practice Operating Profit by the remainder of the Practice Net Revenue less
Physician Advances and base management fee.

     

    (ii)
Practice shall receive all proceeds of the Practice Operating Profit up to a
Performance Ratio of 1%.

     

    (iii)
WellQuest shall receive a performance bonus equal to $15,000 for each 1%
increase in the Performance Ratio above the initial 1%, prorated for any partial

    RESTRICTIVE
COVENANTS

     

    The
parties recognize that the services to be provided by WellQuest shall be
feasible only if Practice operates an active medical practice to which the
physicians associated with Practice devote their full time and attention. To
that end:

     

    6.1.                      Restrictive Covenants by
Practice. During the term of this Agreement and for a period up to twelve
(12) months thereafter, neither Practice nor Physician Shareholder shall
establish, operate or provide physician services at any medical office, practice
or other health care facility providing services substantially similar to those
provided by Practice pursuant to this Agreement anywhere within 25 miles of a
WellQuest Center in northwestern Arkansas at which Practice provided services
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (wherever located at such
time).  Practice and Physician Shareholder jointly and severally agree
that in the event of a breach of this Section 6.1, among any and all other
remedies that WellQuest may pursue as a result of such breach, Practice shall
pay WellQuest an amount equal to the sum of the prior twelve (12) months’
compensation and benefits paid to its employees, as compensation for the
investment of time and capital that WellQuest has made in connection with the
provision of exclusive management services to the Practice and in recognition of
the value of the trade secrets, confidential business information, and patient
contacts provided by WellQuest to Practice and Physician Shareholder pursuant to
the relationship created by this Agreement.  Physician Shareholder
joins this Agreement for purpose of agreeing to this Section 6.1.

     

    6.2.                      Restrictive Covenants By
Current Physician Shareholder and Physician Employees. Practice shall
obtain and enforce formal agreements from its current Physician Shareholder and
any current or future physician employees, other than Allied Health
Professionals, pursuant to which the Physician Shareholder and physician
employees agree not to establish, operate or provide physician services at any
medical office, practice or outpatient and/or ambulatory treatment or diagnostic
facility providing services substantially similar to those provided by Practice
within 25 miles of the any WellQuest Center in northwestern Arkansas at which
Practice provided services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (wherever
located at such time) during the term of their employment and for a period of 12
months after any termination of employment with Practice.  In the
event of a breach of this Section 6.2, among any and all other remedies that
WellQuest may pursue as a result of such breach, the Physician Shareholder or
the breaching physician employee, as the case may be, shall pay to WellQuest an
amount equal to the prior twelve (12) months’ compensation and benefits paid to
such Physician Shareholder or physician employees, as applicable, as
compensation for the investment of time and capital that WellQuest has made in
connection with the provision of exclusive management services to the Practice,
and in recognition of the value of the trade secrets, confidential business
information, and patient contacts provided by WellQuest to Practice and the
Physician Employees pursuant to the relationship created by this
Agreement.  WellQuest shall be a third party beneficiary of any
restrictive covenants contained in the employment contracts between Practice and
Physician Employees.

    6.4.                      Enforcement.
WellQuest and Practice acknowledge and agree that since a remedy at law for any
breach or attempted breach of the provisions of this Article VI shall be
inadequate, either party shall be entitled to specific performance and
injunctive or other equitable relief in case of any such breach or attempted
breach, in addition to whatever other remedies may exist by law. All parties
hereto also waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in
connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.
If any provision of Article VI relating to the restrictive period, scope of
activity restricted and/or the territory described therein shall be declared by
a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum time period, scope of
activity restricted or geographical area such court deems reasonable and
enforceable under applicable law, the time period, scope of activity restricted
and/or area of restriction held reasonable and enforceable by the court shall
thereafter be the restrictive period, scope of activity restricted and/or the
territory applicable to the restrictive covenant provisions in this Article VI.
The invalidity or non-enforceability of this Article VI in any respect shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Article VI or of
any other provisions of this Agreement.

    INSURANCE
AND INDEMNITY

     

    7.1.                      Insurance to be Maintained
by Practice. Throughout the term of this Agreement, subject to the
provisions of Article IV providing for malpractice premiums and deductibles to
be a Practice Operating Expense, Practice shall maintain comprehensive
professional liability insurance with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per
claim and with aggregate policy limits of not less than $3,000,000 per physician
and a separate limit for Practice. Practice shall be responsible for all such
liabilities in excess of the limits of such policies. WellQuest shall have the
option of providing such professional liability insurance through an alternative
program, provided such program meets the requirements of the Insurance
Commissioner of the State of Arkansas. WellQuest shall reimburse Practice for
any unearned professional liability insurance premiums paid by Practice to the
extent not reimbursed or reimbursable by Practice’s insurance carrier if
Practice’s existing professional liability insurance program is cancelled and
replaced by a comparable professional liability insurance program initiated by
WellQuest.

    7.2.                      Insurance to be Maintained
by WellQuest. Throughout the term of this Agreement, WellQuest will use
reasonable efforts to provide and maintain, as a Practice Operating Expense, (a)
comprehensive professional liability insurance for all professional employees of
WellQuest with limits as determined reasonable by WellQuest in its national
program and (b) comprehensive general liability and property insurance covering
the Practice premises and operations.

     

    7.3.                      Tail Insurance
Coverage. Practice will cause each individual physician who associates
with Practice after the date hereof to enter into an agreement with Practice
that upon termination of such physician’s relationship with Practice, for any
reason, tail insurance coverage will be purchased by the individual physician.
Such provisions may be contained in employment agreements, restrictive covenant
agreements or other agreements entered into by Practice and the individual
physicians, and Practice hereby covenants with WellQuest to enforce such
provisions relating to the tail insurance coverage or to provide such coverage
at the expense of Practice. The cost of tail insurance coverage for physicians
who are currently associated with Practice shall be a Practice Operating
Expense; provided, that the cost of tail insurance coverage for any physician
who is an employee of Practice and is serving as a Medical Director under a
written contract with WellQuest at the time of termination of this Agreement
shall be shared equally by WellQuest and the physician if such termination was
pursuant to Section 8.3(c) of this Agreement.

     

    7.4.                      Indemnification.
Practice shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend WellQuest, its officers,
directors, shareholders and employees, from and against any and all liability,
loss, damage, claim, causes of action, and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees), whether or not covered by insurance, caused or asserted to
have been caused, directly or indirectly, by or as a result of the performance
of medical services or any other acts or omissions by Practice and/or its
shareholders, agents, employees and/or subcontractors (other than WellQuest)
during the term hereof. WellQuest shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend
Practice, its officers, directors, shareholders and employees, from and against
any and all liability, loss, damage, claim, causes of action, and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees), caused or asserted to have been caused,
directly or indirectly, by or as a result of the performance of any intentional
acts, negligent acts or omissions by WellQuest and/or its shareholders, agents,
employees and/or subcontractors (other than Practice) during the term of this
Agreement.

Agreement.

     

    (b)               In
the event WellQuest shall materially default in the performance of any duty or

WellQuest by Practice; provided, that a material default by Well Quest in
respect to an obligation to make a payment to Practice (including, but not
limited to, WellQuest’s obligation to fund the Practice Payroll Account) shall
be grounds for termination of this Agreement if the default is not cured by Well
Quest after fifteen (15) days written notice thereof has been given to WellQuest
by Practice.

     

    8.3.                      Termination by

    (d)               At
WellQuest’s option, WellQuest may terminate this Agreement immediately in the
event the Physician Shareholder or the Practice are investigated, sanctioned or

safety of patients or other HealthQuest Center employees, and, if the conduct is
that of an individual Physician Employee other than Physician Shareholder, if
the Practice fails to immediately remove and replace such Physician Employee
with another Physician Employee acceptable to WellQuest;

Confidentiality.
Except for disclosure to its bankers, underwriters or lenders, or as necessary
or desirable for conduct of business, including negotiations with other
acquisition candidates, neither party hereto shall disseminate or release to any
third party any information regarding any provision of this Agreement, or any
financial information regarding the other (past, present or future) that was
obtained by the other in the course of the negotiation of this Agreement or in
the course of the performance of this Agreement, without the other party’s
written approval; provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to
information which (i) is generally available to the public other than as a
result of a breach of confidentiality provisions; (ii) becomes available on a
non-confidential basis from a source other than the other party or its
affiliates or agents, which source was not itself bound by a confidentiality
agreement, or (iii) which is required to be disclosed by law including
securities laws, or pursuant to court order.

     

    9.11.                    Contract Modifications for
Prospective Legal Events. In the event any state or federal laws or
regulations, now existing or enacted or promulgated after the effective date of
this Agreement, are interpreted by judicial decision, a regulatory agency or
legal counsel in such a manner as to indicate that the structure of this
Agreement may be in violation of such laws or regulations, Practice and
WellQuest shall amend this Agreement as necessary. To the maximum extent
possible, any such amendment shall preserve the underlying economic and
financial arrangements between Practice and WellQuest.

     

    9.12.                    Remedies Cumulative.
No remedy set forth in this Agreement or otherwise conferred upon or reserved to
any party shall be considered exclusive of any other remedy available to any
party, but the same shall be distinct, separate and cumulative and may be
exercised from time to time as often as occasion may arise or as may be deemed
expedient.

     

    9.13.                    Language
Construction. The language in all parts of this Agreement shall be
construed, in all cases, according to its fair meaning. The parties acknowledge
that each party and its counsel have reviewed and revised this
Agreement.

     

    9.14.                    No Obligation to Third
Parties. None of the obligations and duties of WellQuest or Practice
under this Agreement shall in any way or in any manner be deemed to create any
obligation of WellQuest or of Practice to, or any rights in, any person or
entity not a party to this Agreement.

    9.15.                    Communications.
Practice and WellQuest agree that good communication between the parties is
essential to the successful performance of this Agreement, and each pledges to
communicate fully and clearly with the other on matters relating to the
successful operation of Practice’s practice.

     

    9.16.                    Survival.  Any
provisions of this Agreement creating obligations extending beyond the term of
this Agreement will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement,
regardless of the reason for such termination.

     

    9.17                      Arbitration.

     

    (a)       Any
dispute or controversy arising among the parties hereto regarding any term,
covenant or condition of this Agreement or the breach thereof (other than a
dispute arising from Practice’s failure to pay indebtedness owed to WellQuest)
shall, upon written demand of any party hereto, be submitted to and determined
by arbitration before the American Health Lawyers Association Alternative
Dispute Resolution Service or the American Arbitration Association, in Tulsa,
Oklahoma, by a single arbitrator qualified and experienced in healthcare law, in
accordance with the rules of the Association then in effect in respect to the
arbitration of commercial healthcare disputes; provided, that any party hereto
may seek injunctive relief from a court and the proceeding for such equitable
relief shall not be subject to dismissal or stay as a result of a request for
arbitration under this section.  The arbitrator shall have the
authority to grand injunctive relief, but the seeking or obtaining of injunctive
relief from a court by any party shall not be deemed a waiver by that party of
the right to demand arbitration of any dispute arising hereunder.

     

    (b)      The

shall maintain, at its sole cost and expense, the following types of insurance
in the amounts specified and in the form hereinafter provided for:

     

    1. General
Liability.  Commercial
general liability insurance covering Practice and all physicians who use the
Premises, against claims for personal injury, death or property damage occurring
upon, in or about the Premises, Land or Building. Such insurance shall have
limits of not less than $1,000,000 per person and
$1,000,000 per occurrence for personal injury to or death of any number
of persons arising out of any one occurrence, and $1,000,000 (for physicians,

occurrence.  Practice’s insurance coverage required under this
Subsection shall include coverage for liability hazards as defined in the policy
forms and endorsements for premises and operations liability, personal injury
liability, terrorism, products and completed operations liability, broad
property damage liability and contractual liability, which shall extend to any
liability of Practice arising out of the indemnities granted under this
Lease.  

     

    2. Casualty.  Throughout the
entire Term, Practice shall maintain “All Risk” or “Fire and Extended Coverage”
property insurance covering Practice’s trade fixtures and personal property, and
the trade fixtures and personal property of all physicians that are located on
or about the Premises, and all leasehold improvements to the Premises which
Practice is required to maintain or repair.  Such insurance shall be
carried at the replacement cost of the insured property, and shall provide
protection against perils that are covered under standard insurance industry
practices within the classification of “All Risk” or “Fire and Extended
Coverage” property insurance, including but not limited to, loss or damage from
fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, civil commotion, aircraft,
vehicles, smoke, water damage, collapse, sprinkler leakage, vandalism, malicious
mischief, terrorism, earthquake and flood.

     

    3. Worker
Compensation.  If Practice has
employees or leased employees, worker compensation insurance.

     

    b. All such insurance policies shall be
maintained on an “Occurrence,” not “Claims Made,” basis with financially
responsible insurance companies that are acceptable to WellQuest and that are
authorized to insure risks in the State of Arkansas.  Such
insurance shall be issued in the name of Practice or the applicable physician,
with WellQuest and Owner named as additional insureds on all such
policies.  Practice shall promptly deliver to WellQuest a certificate
or certificates (i) listing the insurers and policy numbers, for all of the
insurance required to be maintained under this Sublease, (ii) warranting that
said insurance is in full force and effect and that such insurance and the
policies evidencing the same comply with the requirements of this Sublease; and
(iii) containing an endorsement that the insurer will not cancel, amend or fail
to renew the policy without notifying WellQuest and Practice by certified or
registered mail at least thirty (30) days in advance of such cancellation or
amendment.  If Practice fails to procure any insurance required
hereunder, or fails to maintain the insurance in force continuously during the
term, WellQuest has the option, but not the obligation, to procure such
insurance for Practice, and Practice shall immediately reimburse WellQuest for
the cost of such insurance on written demand. 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        36

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    22. Untenantability.  If the Premises
or the Building are, in whole or in part, made untenantable by fire or other
casualty, WellQuest may elect: 

     

    a. To terminate this Sublease as of the
date of the fire or casualty by notice to Practice within 60 days after the
occurrence; or

     

    b. To commence repair or reconstruction
of the Building or the Premises at WellQuest's expense within 90 days after
WellQuest is enabled to take possession of and to commence such repairs or
reconstruction of the damaged Building or Premises, in which case the Lease
shall not terminate but rent shall be abated on a per diem basis while a
substantial part of the Premises is untenantable.  If, however,
Practice occupies part of the Premises during such repairs or reconstruction,
Practice shall pay rent for the part of the Premises that it
occupies.  If WellQuest elects so to repair or reconstruct the
Building or the Premises and does not substantially complete the work within 180
days after such repairs or reconstruction is commenced, either party may
terminate this Sublease as of the date of the fire or casualty by notice to the
other party not later than 210 days after such repairs or reconstruction
begins.

     

    In the
event of termination of the Sublease pursuant to this Section, Rent shall be
apportioned on a per diem basis and paid to the date of the fire or
casualty.  In no event shall WellQuest be liable any damages to
any  Practice Person resulting from any fire or casualty to the
Building or the Premises, or from any repair or reconstruction of the
Premises.

     

    23. Eminent
Domain.  If the whole or any substantial part of the Premises
is taken or condemned for any public use or purpose, the Term shall end when,
and not before, the possession of the part so taken is taken by the authority
that takes the property.  Rent for the month in which the taking
occurs shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination.  If
part but not all of the Premises is taken or condemned, so that Practice may
continue to occupy the Premises not taken, the Base Rent and Practice’s Share
shall be reduced pro rata based on the net rentable area of the Premises so
taken.  The entire condemnation award shall be the property of
WellQuest without apportionment to Practice.  Practice shall not claim
or have any right to compensation for the condemnation of Practice’s leasehold,
but may claim a right to compensation for the condemnation of Practice’s movable
tangible personal property.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        37

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    24. Surrender
of Premises.  At the end of the
Term, Practice immediately shall surrender peaceable possession of the Premises
and deliver the Premises to WellQuest in as good repair and condition as at the
commencement of Practice's occupancy, reasonable wear and tear and damage or
destruction by fire or other casualty (that is not caused by a Practice Person)
excepted.  Practice shall deliver all keys and access cards to the
Premises to WellQuest.  If possession is not immediately surrendered,
WellQuest may take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Practice and
any other person occupying all or a portion of the Premises by force if
necessary, without having civil or criminal liability.

     

    25. Brokers.  Neither
party was represented by a broker in connection with this
transaction.  Each party shall indemnify and defend the other party
against all claims for a commission arising out of this Sublease.

     

    26. Right to
Enforce.  To the extent
that any of WellQuest’s obligations are required to be performed by Owner,
Practice shall rely on and look solely to Owner for the performance
thereof.  WellQuest may, in its option and sole discretion (but shall
not have any liability for failing to do so):

     

    a. Perform any duty of
Owner.  In such event, WellQuest shall have the full right to receive
the performance of such duty, or payment therefor, either from Owner or (if
permitted by the Base Lease) Practice;

     

    b. Perform any duty of Practice under
this Sublease or under the Base Lease and for that purpose WellQuest or its
contractors may enter the Premises at any time.  If WellQuest performs
any Practice duty, Practice shall pay to WellQuest as Additional Rent (i) the
entire direct cost of such performance, (ii) WellQuest’s reasonable attorney and
management fees and (iii) interest on the sum of (i and ii) at 15% per
annum.  Neither WellQuest nor Owner shall be liable for any damage to
the Premises or to any property, or for any loss of use of Premises, relating to
any action described in this Subsection (b); or

     

    c. Assign any right described in this
Sublease to Owner, and in such event WellQuest shall have no liability for any
action or inaction of Owner.

as Additional Rent, all damages owing to Owner as a direct or indirect result of
Practice’s breach.

     

    i. WellQuest may exercise any or all
other rights or remedies which it may have for possession, rent, arrearages in
rent, damages, other remedies under this Sublease or under the Base Lease, in
law, by statute or at equity.

     

    All
remedies are cumulative and may be taken in any order selected by
WellQuest.  If WellQuest elects to re-enter or take possession of the
Premises, Practice waives notice of such re-entry or repossession and of
WellQuest’s intent to re-enter or retake possession.  The pursuit of
any remedy shall not constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any Rent due to
WellQuest or of any damages accruing to WellQuest by reason of any breach of any
of this Sublease.  WellQuest’s waiver of or forbearance to enforce one
or more of its remedies for an Event of Default shall not constitute a waiver of
such Event of Default or of a waiver or forbearance with respect to any other
remedy.  The loss or damage which WellQuest may suffer by reason of
termination of this Sublease or the deficiency arising by reason of any
reletting by WellQuest shall include the expense of repossession and any repairs
or remodeling undertaken by WellQuest following repossession and until the end
of the Regular Term.  No reentry of the Premises by WellQuest shall
constitute an election by WellQuest to terminate this Sublease unless WellQuest
specifically notifies Practice in writing that the Sublease has been
terminated.  Practice, for the purposes of this Sublease, waives any
and all stay and homestead laws of the State of Arkansas.

    29. WellQuest’s
Security Interest.  

     

    a. Grant.  In addition to
the statutory Landlord’s lien, but subject to the lien of any source of purchase
money financing procured at any time by Practice for the acquisition of
equipment, fixtures, inventory or supplies, (which purchase money security
interest must be properly and timely perfected to be superior to WellQuest’s
lien), Practice grants to WellQuest a continuing security interest in all of
Practice’s Accounts, Inventory, Equipment, Supplies, Contract Rights, General
Intangibles, Contract Rights, Tenant Improvements, Fixtures, proceeds and
products of any such collateral, and all such collateral now existing or
hereafter acquired.  All of such items of property (including, without
limitation, proceeds and products) are referenced as the “Collateral.”

     

    b. Secured
Indebtedness.  The Collateral secures payment of all Rent and
secures payment of all damages or losses that WellQuest may suffer by reason of
any breach by Practice of this Sublease.  None of the Collateral shall
be removed from the Premises without WellQuest’s consent until Practice has paid
all arrearages in Rent and has performed all the terms of this
Sublease.

     

    c. Remedies.  After
any Event of Default, in addition to any other remedies that either party has,
WellQuest may, at its option:

     

    1. Have and exercise all of the rights
of a secured party under the Arkansas Uniform
Commercial Code;

     

    2. Enter upon the Premises and take
possession of all Collateral without liability for trespass or conversion;
and

     

    
      
         

      

      
        42

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    3. Sell the Collateral at one or more
commercially reasonable public sales, in one or several lots, with or without
having such property at the sale, after giving Practice reasonable notice of the
time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale is
to be made. At any such sale, WellQuest or its assigns may purchase Collateral
unless otherwise prohibited by law.  Unless otherwise required by law,
and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Practice reasonable
notice, the requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is
given in the manner prescribed in this Sublease for other notices at least 10
days before the time of sale.

     

    d. Proceeds
of Sale.  The proceeds from any such sale, less all expenses
connected with the taking of possession of, holding and selling the Collateral
(including reasonable attorney fees and other expenses), shall be applied as a
credit against the secured indebtedness.  Any surplus shall be paid to
Practice or as otherwise required by law.  Practice shall pay all
deficiencies immediately as Additional Rent. 

     

    e. Financing
Statement.  Upon request by WellQuest, Practice shall execute
and deliver to WellQuest financing statements in a form sufficient to perfect
WellQuest’s security interests under the provisions of the Arkansas Uniform
Commercial Code.  A photocopy of this Sublease may be filed as a
financing statement.  

     

    f. Statutory
Lien.  WellQuest's
statutory lien for rent is not waived.  The security interest granted
in this Section is in addition to such statutory lien.

     

    30. Estoppel
Certificate.  Within ten (10)
days after WellQuest requests a statement described in this Section, Practice
shall execute and deliver to WellQuest a statement, in writing and in form and
substance satisfactory to WellQuest, certifying (a) that this Sublease is in
full force and effect, (b) the ending date of the Term, (c) that all Rent is
paid currently without any offset or defense, except as noted therein (d) the
amount of Rent, if any, paid in advance, (e) any amendments to this Sublease,
(f) that there are no uncured defaults by Owner or WellQuest or stating in
reasonable detail those defaults claimed by Practice, and (g) such other matters
as may be reasonably requested by WellQuest.  

     

    31. No
Required Referrals.  This Lease is not
based on the value or volume of referrals, or the promise or anticipation of any
referrals, from one party to the other.  Neither Party is required to
make any referral to the other party at any time.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        43

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    

    32. Notices.  All notices
required under this Sublease shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be
properly served if delivered personally or if sent by Certified Mail with Return
Receipt Requested to WellQuest at the address stated below in the signature
section of this Sublease with a simultaneous copy to the last address where rent
was paid, or to Practice at the address of the Premises, until such time as
either Party shall advise the other in writing as to a different mailing
address.  The effective date of mailed notices shall be the date
stamped on the envelope by the United States Post Office
Department.  The Parties shall not refuse to accept delivery of said
notices.

     

    33. Holding
Over Does Not Extend Sublease.

     

    a. Holding
Over.  If Practice
remains in possession of any part of the Premises after the end of the Term
without the execution of a new Lease by WellQuest, Practice shall be deemed to
be occupying the Premises as a holdover tenant subject to all of the conditions,
provisions and obligations of this Sublease, EXCEPT that the amount of monthly
rental to be paid during each month or partial month of the holdover shall be
two times the amount of the monthly Rent installment payable for the last full
calendar month immediately preceding the expiration of the Term and Practice
hereby indemnifies WellQuest and HQ from any and all losses, liabilities, costs,
fees (including attorney’s fees), damages, judgments or expenses WellQuest or HQ
may incur as a consequence of the holdover.  In no event shall this
Subsection be deemed to authorize any holding over by
Practice.  WellQuest may require Practice to leave the Premises
immediately upon the end of the Term or at any time thereafter.

     

    b. Money
Received After Termination.  No receipt of money by WellQuest
from Practice after the termination of this Lease (however such termination may
occur), service of any notice, commencement of any suit or final judgment for
possession, shall reinstate, continue or extend the term of this Lease, affect
any such notice, demand, suit or judgment, or extend Practice's right of
possession to any part of the Premises.

     

    34. Time of
Essence.  Time is of the essence in the performance by the
parties of each term, covenant and condition of this Sublease.

     

    35. Binding
Effect.  This Sublease shall inure to the benefit of and shall
bind the successors and assigns of the parties.  Practice shall,
however, not have any right to assign, mortgage or otherwise encumber the
Premises or this Sublease or to further sublease the Premises except as
expressly permitted in advance in writing by WellQuest.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        44

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    36. Severability.
Should any clause or provision of this Sublease be held invalid or void for any
reason, such invalid or void clause or provision shall be enforced to maximum
extent allowed by law and the deletion of the invalid or void portion of this
Sublease shall not affect the remaining terms of this Sublease, but the balance
of the provisions of this Sublease shall remain in full force and
effect.

     

    37. Interpretation.  This
Sublease shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, Arkansas law. Captions
are inserted for ease of reference and are not to be used to interpret the
text.  

     

    38. Entire
Agreement.  This Sublease
states the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the all elements of
the sublease by Practice of the Premises.  There are no “side deals,”
and there are no terms or conditions relative to the sublease which are not
stated in this document.  All attached Exhibits are incorporated into
this Sublease by reference.

     

    Wherefore, the parties have
executed this Sublease on the day and year first above written.

    EMPLOYEE
LEASE

     

     

    THIS
EMPLOYEE LEASE made as of the ____ day of __________, 2005, by and between Northwest Arkansas Primary Care
Physicians, P.A. , an Arkansas professional association (the “Practice”)
and WellQuest Medical &
Wellness Centers of Northwest Arkansas, Inc. d/b/a WellQuest, an Arkansas
corporation (“WellQuest”).

     

     

    BACKGROUND:

     

     

    WellQuest
intends to operate centers (the “WellQuest Centers”) throughout northwestern
Arkansas that provide one-stop primary healthcare and wellness
services.  WellQuest plans to establish the initial WellQuest Center
in Bentonville, Arkansas. Each WellQuest Center will consist of a medical spa, a
retail health and wellness shop, and related health and wellness services as
WellQuest determines are necessary or desirable.

     

    The
parties hereto have entered into that certain Management and Medical Services
Agreement as of the date hereof pursuant to which, among other matters, the
parties agreed to enter into this Agreement, because Practice desires to
contract with WellQuest, and WellQuest wishes to contract with Practice, for the
provision of employees and services incidental to employee payroll, benefits,
supervision and management;

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties
agree as follows:

     

    1.           Provision of
Employees.  WellQuest agrees to employ and provide all
non-physician medical personnel to Practice in order to allow Practice to have
sufficient personnel to carry on its medical activities at the WellQuest
Center.  Practice agrees to outline the job requirements of the
positions to be filled and to keep WellQuest informed of subsequent personnel
needs or changes.

     

    2.           Fees.  Practice
agrees to remit to WellQuest monthly an amount equal to the cost of employing
the personnel consisting of the following items:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (i)

            	
              Wages
      and salary per the schedule submitted by WellQuest to the Practice from
      time to time (if Practice does not object to such schedule within 48 hours
      of receipt, such schedule shall be deemed
  accepted).

            

    

     

    
      
         

      

      
        49

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (ii)           Payroll
taxes; and

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (iii)

            	
              Fringe
      benefits, including all reasonable fringe benefits which are or may become
      standard for personnel at the WellQuest Center (such as health insurance,
      disability insurance, life insurance, retirement plans, seminar and
      related travel expenses and professional
dues).

            

    

     

    3.           Supervision of
Personnel.  WellQuest shall be responsible for hiring, firing,
supervising, payroll and all other administrative functions usually performed by
an employer; provided, however, Practice and WellQuest shall cooperate in making
personnel decisions to the extent feasible.  WellQuest and Practice
shall agree on an established schedule for holidays, vacations and sick leave
policies for WellQuest’s employees employed to work with
Practice.  WellQuest shall be responsible for maintaining written
records of hours worked by all salaried and hourly personnel, including regular
and overtime hours.

     

    4.           Payroll
Taxes.  WellQuest acknowledges that it is responsible for
payment of all payroll taxes for its employees and agrees to furnish proof of
such payments to Practice upon written request.

     

    5.           Employee
Review.  WellQuest shall periodically, but not less than
annually, review and evaluate the performance of all personnel leased to
Practice. Moreover, Practice shall provide to WellQuest its own review and
evaluation of the performance of all personnel.

     

    6.           Conduct of
Practice.  Practice covenants and agrees to obey all federal,
state and local statutes regarding treatment of employees in a business
situation.  While the parties hereto recognize and affirm that the
employees leased to Practice are the employees of WellQuest, Practice covenants
and agrees not to conduct itself in any manner such as to make WellQuest liable
for, or subject to any racial or sexual discrimination charges, wage and hour
violations or any such other offenses for which WellQuest may be liable for
damages or fines, or subject to criminal prosecution, without WellQuest’s
knowledge or consent.

     

    7.           Indemnification by
Practice.  Practice agrees to indemnify and hold WellQuest
harmless for any and all expenses, including all reasonable attorney's fees and
the costs of defense of any actions brought against WellQuest by any party as a
result of any actions, whether intentional or negligent, or any failure to act
on the part of Practice, or for any actions, whether intentional or negligent,
or any failure to act on the part of any or all employees of WellQuest if such
actions or failures to act result in legal or regulatory action being brought
against WellQuest.  Practice hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
WellQuest harmless for all of the above related expenses, and also for any
judgment or fine which might be levied or adjudged against WellQuest as a result
of Practice's actions or failures to act, or as a result of WellQuest’s
employees' actions or failures to act.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        50

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    8.           Term.  This
Agreement shall terminate when the Management and Medical Services Agreement
terminates or expires.

     

    9.           Entire
Agreement.  This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and no
modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement or any provision thereof
shall be binding upon either party unless confirmed by written instrument signed
by each party.

     

    10.           Governing
Law.  The validity, construction and effect of this Agreement,
and all extensions and modifications thereof, shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Oklahoma.

     

    11.           Breach.  In
the event that Practice fails to make any payments due to be paid to WellQuest
hereunder or fails to comply with any other terms of this Agreement, and it
becomes necessary for WellQuest to retain the services of any attorney to
enforce the terms of this Agreement, then Practice shall be liable to WellQuest
for all reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in enforcing the terms of this
Agreement together with all costs incident thereto.

     

    12.           Binding
Effect.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the successors, heirs and assigns of the parties hereto.

     

    13.           Assignment.  Neither
party may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other
party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that
WellQuest may assign this Agreement to any of its affiliates without the prior
written consent of Practice.

     

    14.           Notices. The notice
provisions in the Management and Medical Services Agreement are incorporated
herein by reference.

    Section
6.                                Term and
Termination

     

    a.           Term.  The
Term of this Agreement shall be effective as of the date of the Management
Agreement and shall terminate when all of the PHI provided by Covered Entity to
Business Associate, or created or received by Business Associate on behalf of
Covered Entity, is destroyed or returned to Covered Entity, or, if it is
infeasible to return or destroy PHI, protections are extended to such
information, in accordance with the termination provisions in this
Section.

     

    b.           Termination for
Cause. Upon Covered Entity’s knowledge of a material breach by Business
Associate, Covered Entity shall either:

     

    i.           Provide
an opportunity for Business Associate to cure the breach or end the violation
and terminate this Agreement and the Management Agreement if Business Associate
does not cure the breach or end the violation within the time specified by
Covered Entity;

     

    ii.           Immediately
terminate this Agreement and the Management Agreement if Business Associate has
breached a material term of this Agreement and cure is not possible;
or

     

    
      
         

      

      
        56

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    iii.           If
neither termination nor cure is feasible, Covered Entity shall report the
violation to the Secretary.

     

    c.           Effect of
Termination.

     

    i.           Except
as provided in paragraph c.ii. of this section, upon termination of this
Agreement, for any reason, Business Associate shall return or destroy all PHI
received from Covered Entity, or created or received by Business Associate on
behalf of Covered Entity. This provision shall apply to PHI that is in the
possession of subcontractors or agents of Business
Associate.  Business Associate shall retain no copies of the
PHI.

     

    ii.           In
the event that Business Associate determines that returning or destroying the
PHI is infeasible, Business Associate shall provide to Covered Entity
notification of the conditions that make return or destruction infeasible. Upon
that return or destruction of PHI is infeasible, Business Associate shall extend
the protections of this Agreement to such PHI and limit further uses and
disclosures of such PHI to those purposes that make the return or destruction
infeasible, for so long as Business Associate maintains such PHI.
