Revolving Facility shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the Facility Cap, and (b)
the Availability. The Revolving Facility is a revolving credit facility, which
may be drawn, repaid and redrawn, from time to time as permitted under this
Agreement. Any determination as to whether there is availability within the
Borrowing Base for Advances shall be made by Lender in its sole discretion and
is final and binding upon Borrower. Unless otherwise permitted by Lender, each
Advance shall be in an amount of at least $1,000. Subject to the provisions of
this Agreement, Borrower may request Advances under the Revolving Facility up to
and including the value, in Dollars, of (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the
Borrowing Base for Accounts Receivables, plus (ii) fifty-five percent (55%) of
the Borrowing Base for Eligible Inventory Costs, provided however, that the
advance rate for the Wise Eligible Inventory Costs shall be fifty percent (50%)
of the Borrowing Base relating to the Wise Eligible Inventory Costs, minus, if
applicable, amounts reserved pursuant to this Agreement (such calculated amount
being referred to herein as the "AVAILABILITY"). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
from November 14, 2003 through and including March 31, 2004, Borrower may
request Advances under the Revolving Facility up to and including the value, in
Dollars, of (i) fifty-five percent (55%) of the Borrowing Base for Eligible
Inventory Costs, including without limitation, Wise Eligible Inventory Costs.
From and after April 1, 2004, the Borrowing Base for Eligible Inventory Costs
shall automatically revert back to the formula specified in the fifth sentence
of this Section 2.1(a). Advances under the Revolving Facility automatically
shall be made for the payment of interest on the Revolving Note and other
Obligations on the date when due to the extent available and as provided for
herein.

                  (b) Lender has established the above-referenced advance rate
for Availability and, in its sole credit judgment, may further adjust the
Availability and such advance rate by applying percentages (known as "liquidity
factors") to Eligible Receivables by payor class based upon Borrower's actual
recent collection history for each such payor class (i.e., Medicare, Medicaid,
commercial insurance, etc.) in a manner consistent with Lender's underwriting
practices and procedures, including without limitation Lender's review and
analysis of, among other things, Borrower's historical returns, rebates,
discounts, credits and allowances (collectively, the "DILUTION ITEMS"). Such
liquidity factors and the advance rate for Availability may be adjusted by
Lender throughout the Term as warranted by Lender's underwriting practices and
procedures in its sole credit judgment. Also, Lender shall have the right to
establish from time to time in its sole credit judgment, reserves against the
Borrowing Base, which reserves shall have the effect of reducing the amounts
otherwise eligible to be disbursed to Borrower under the Revolving Facility
pursuant to this Agreement.

                  (c) Borrower shall be permitted to borrow, for the period of
time commencing on November 30, 2003 and expiring on February 29, 2004, in
addition to the Availability (the "OVERADVANCE") not to exceed, at any one time,
$700,000 (the "MAXIMUM OVERADVANCE AMOUNTS"). Each Overadvance shall be part of
the Revolving Facility, evidenced by the Revolving Note and, when aggregated
with all other Advances, subject at all times to the Facility Cap. The aggregate
balance of all Overadvances shall be due and payable in full in cash on February
29, 2004, and if the aggregate balance of all outstanding Overadvances exceeds
the Maximum Overadvance Amount, the Borrower shall immediately repay such
excess. No Overadvance shall be made at any time that a Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing past any cure period. Any
mandatory prepayment of the Overadvances pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof shall
permanently reduce the Overadvance.

         2.2      THE REVOLVING NOTE; MATURITY

                  (a) All Advances under the Revolving Facility shall be
evidenced by the Revolving Note, payable to the order of Lender, duly executed
and delivered by Borrower and dated the Closing Date, evidencing the aggregate
indebtedness of Borrower to Lender resulting from Advances under the Revolving
Facility, from time to time. Lender hereby is authorized, but is not obligated,
to enter the amount of each Advance under the Revolving Facility and the amount
of each payment or prepayment of principal or interest thereon in the
appropriate spaces on the reverse of or on an attachment to the Revolving Note.
Lender will account to Borrower monthly with a statement of Advances under the
Revolving Facility and charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement, and
in the absence of manifest error, such accounting rendered by Lender shall be
deemed presumptive and conclusive unless Lender is notified by Borrower in
writing to the contrary within thirty (30) calendar days of Receipt of each
accounting, which notice shall be deemed an objection only to items specifically
objected to therein.

                  (b) All amounts outstanding under the Revolving Note and other
Obligations shall be due and payable in full, if not earlier in accordance with
this Agreement, on the earlier of (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default if
required pursuant hereto or Lender's demand upon an Event of Default, and (ii)
the last day of the Revolver Term (such earlier date being the "MATURITY DATE").

         2.3      REVOLVING NOTE INTEREST

                  Interest on outstanding Advances under the Revolving Note
shall be payable monthly in

                                       3
<PAGE>

arrears on the first day of each calendar month at an annual rate of Prime Rate
plus 1.5%, provided, however, that, notwithstanding, any provision of any Loan
Document, (i) the interest on all outstanding Overadvances under the Revolving
Note shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month
at an annual rate of Prime Rate plus 5.5%, (ii) the interest on all outstanding
Advances (including all Overadvances) under the Revolving Note shall be not less
than 5.75%, and (iii) in each case shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day
year and for the actual number of calendar days elapsed in each interest
calculation period. Interest accrued on each Advance under the Revolving Note
shall be due and payable on the first day of each calendar month, in accordance
with the procedures provided for in Section 2.5 and Section 2.9, commencing
February 1, 2002, and continuing until the later of the expiration of the Term
and the full performance and irrevocable payment in full in cash of the
Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

         2.4      REVOLVING FACILITY DISBURSEMENTS; REQUIREMENT TO DELIVER
                  BORROWING CERTIFICATE

                  So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, Borrower may give Lender irrevocable written notice
requesting an Advance under the Revolving Facility by delivering to Lender not
later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City Time) at least one (1) (but not more than
four (4) Business Days before the proposed borrowing date of such requested
Advance (the "BORROWING DATE"), a completed Borrowing Certificate and relevant
supporting documentation satisfactory to Lender, which shall (i) specify the
proposed Borrowing Date of such Advance which shall be a Business Day, (ii)
specify the principal amount of such requested Advance, (iii) certify the
matters contained in Section 4.2, and (iv) specify the amount of any Medicare or
Medicaid recoupments and/or recoupments of any third-party payor being sought,
requested or claimed, or, to Borrower's knowledge, threatened against Borrower
or Borrower's affiliates. Each time a request for an Advance is made (and, in
any event and regardless of whether an Advance is being requested, once a month
as of the fifteenth (15th) day of each month for the month then ended during the
Term (and more frequently if Lender shall so request until the Obligations are
indefeasibly paid in cash in full and this Agreement is terminated), Borrower
shall deliver to Lender a Borrowing Certificate accompanied by a separate
detailed aging and categorizing of Borrower's accounts receivable and inventory
detail and such other supporting documentation with respect to the figures and
information in the Borrowing Certificate as Lender shall reasonably request from
a credit or security perspective or otherwise. On each Borrowing Date, Borrower
irrevocably authorizes Lender to disburse the proceeds of the requested Advance
to the appropriate Borrower's account(s) as set forth on Schedule 2.5, in all
cases for credit to the appropriate Borrower (or to such other account as to
which the appropriate Borrower shall instruct Lender) via Federal funds wire
transfer no later than 4:00 p.m. New York City Time.

         2.5      REVOLVING FACILITY COLLECTIONS; REPAYMENT; BORROWING
                  AVAILABILITY AND LOCKBOX

                  Each Borrower shall maintain one or more lockbox accounts
(individually and collectively, the "LOCKBOX ACCOUNT") with one or more banks
acceptable to Lender and to Borrower (each, a "LOCKBOX BANK"), and shall execute
with each Lockbox Bank one or more agreements acceptable to Lender (individually
and collectively, the "LOCKBOX AGREEMENT"), and such other agreements related
thereto as Lender may require. Each Borrower shall ensure that all collections
of their respective Accounts and all other cash payments received by any
Borrower are paid and delivered directly from Account Debtors and other Persons
into the appropriate Lockbox Account. The Lockbox Agreements shall provide that
the Lockbox Banks immediately will transfer all funds paid into the Lockbox
Accounts into a depository account or accounts maintained by Lender or an
affiliate of Lender at such bank as Lender may communicate to Borrower from time
to time (the "CONCENTRATION

                                       4
<PAGE>

ACCOUNT"), except, with respect only to Accounts payable by Medicaid/Medicare
Account Debtors, as instructed by the applicable Borrower to whom such Accounts
are payable as permitted pursuant to the applicable Lockbox Agreement.
Notwithstanding and without limiting any other provision of any Loan Document,
Lender shall apply, on a daily basis, all funds transferred into the
Concentration Account pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement and this Section 2.5 in
such order and manner as determined by Lender. To the extent that any Accounts
collections of any Borrower or any other cash payments received by any Borrower
are not sent directly to the appropriate Lockbox Account but are received by any
Borrower or any of such Borrower's affiliates, such collections and proceeds
shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lender and immediately remitted (and
in any event within two (2) Business Days), in the form received, to the
appropriate Lockbox Account for immediate transfer to the Concentration Account.
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that compliance with the terms of this Section
2.5 is an essential term of this Agreement, and that, in addition to and
notwithstanding any other rights Lender may have hereunder, under any other Loan
Document, under applicable law or at equity, upon each and every failure by any
Borrower or any of their affiliates to comply with any such terms Lender shall
be entitled to assess a non-compliance fee which shall operate to increase the
Applicable Rate by two percent (2.0%) per annum during any period of
non-compliance, whether or not a Default or an Event of Default occurs or is
declared, provided that nothing shall prevent Lender from considering any
failure to comply with the terms of this Section 2.5 to be a Default or an Event
of Default. All funds transferred to the Concentration Account for application
to the Obligations under the Revolving Facility shall be applied to reduce the
Obligations under the Revolving Facility, but, for purposes of calculating
interest hereunder, shall be subject to a five (5) Business Day clearance
period. If as the result of collections of Accounts and/or any other cash
payments received by any Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.5 a credit balance
exists with respect to the Concentration Account, such credit balance shall not
accrue interest in favor of a Borrower, but shall be available to the
appropriate Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If
applicable, at any time prior to the execution of all or any of the Lockbox
Agreements and operation of all or any of the Lockbox Accounts, each Borrower
and their affiliates shall direct all collections or proceeds it receives on
Accounts or from other Collateral to the accounts(s) and in the manner specified
by Lender in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the
five (5) Business Day clearance period, if no Default or Event of Default has
occurred, all funds transferred to the Concentration Account shall be applied by
Lender first to the remaining Overadvances until no amounts are outstanding with
respect thereto and then to the remaining Obligations under the Revolving
Facility; otherwise all funds transferred to the Concentration Account shall be
applied by Lender in such order as Lender may determine.

         2.6      REPAYMENT OF EXCESS ADVANCES

                  Any balance of Advances under the Revolving Facility
outstanding at any time in excess of the lesser of the Facility Cap or the
Availability shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower without the
necessity of any demand, at the Payment Office, whether or not a Default or
Event of Default has occurred or is continuing and shall be paid in the manner
specified in Section 2.9.

         2.7      TERM LOAN; REQUEST FOR INCREASE

                  (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, Lender agrees to loan to Borrower on the Closing Date the Term Loan
to be constituted of a single draw of not more than the Maximum Term Loan
Amount, to be disbursed to the appropriate Borrower's account(s) as set forth on
Schedule 2.6 or as otherwise directed by Borrower in writing, provided that, the
amount drawn under

                                       5
<PAGE>

the Term Loan shall not be greater than 40% of the value of Borrower's
Equipment, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion. The Term Loan is not
a revolving credit facility, and any repayments of principal shall be applied to
permanently reduce the Term Loan. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by the Term
Note.

                  (b) Lender acknowledges that Borrower may request an increase
in the Maximum Term Loan Amount based upon an increase in the volume of
Borrower's Equipment. Borrower acknowledges that any such increase is subject to
Lender's credit committee approval.

                  (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees to advance to
Borrower on November 14, 2003, an amount equal to $315,286 to be constituted of
a single draw, which shall be evidenced by Term Note B and for all purposes of
this Agreement be considered a portion of the Term Loan."

         2.8      TERM NOTE INTEREST

                  Interest on the outstanding balance of the Term Loan under the
Term Note shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar
month at an annual rate of the Prime Rate plus 3.5%, provided, however, that,
notwithstanding, any other provision of any Loan Document, the interest on the
outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan under the Term Note shall be not
less than 9%, in each case calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and for the
actual number of calendar days elapsed in each interest calculation period.
Interest accrued on the Term Loan shall be due and payable on the first day of
each calendar month commencing March 1, 2002, and continuing until the later of
the expiration of the Term Loan Term and the full performance and irrevocable
payment in full in cash of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.
Advances under the Revolving Facility shall be made automatically for the
payment of interest on the Term Loan and other Obligations on the date when due
to the extent available and as provided for herein.

         2.9      REPAYMENT OF TERM LOAN; MATURITY

                  Payment of principal and all other amounts outstanding under
the Term Loan and all other Obligations due hereunder shall be due and payable
monthly, on the basis of a 7-year amortization, with payment in full of the
balance due upon the earlier of termination or the Term Loan Maturity Date. The
Term Note shall mature, if not earlier in accordance with this Agreement, on the
Term Loan Maturity Date. The Term Loan shall be repaid, based upon a seven (7)
year amortization schedule until such time as Lender conducts an audit of the
Inventory relating to Wise, and to Lender's satisfaction, there is sufficient
value to support a fifteen (15) year amortization schedule as a basis for
repayment of the Term Loan, which such change may be affected by a writing
signed by Lender, without further formal amendment hereof.

         2.10     OTHER MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS ON TERM LOAN

                  In addition to and without limiting any provision of any Loan
Document:

                  (a) if a Change of Control occurs, on or prior to the first
Business Day following the date of such Change of Control, Borrower shall prepay
the Term Loan, including, without limitation, all outstanding Advances and all
other Obligations, in full in cash together with accrued interest thereon to

                                       6
<PAGE>

the date of prepayment and all other amounts owing to Lender under the Loan
Documents related to the Term Loan provided, however, that no prepayment
hereunder shall be required for any Change of Control caused by an equity
investment as long as Borrower is not otherwise in default under this Agreement;
and

                  (b) if Borrower sells or otherwise disposes any of its assets
or properties (other than in the ordinary course of Borrower's business),
receives any property damage insurance award which is not used to repair or
replace the property covered thereby, then it shall apply 100% of the proceeds
thereof first to the permanent repayment of any outstanding Overadvances,
together with accrued interest thereon and all other Obligations owing to Lender
under the Loan Documents related to such Overadvances, second to the prepayment
of the Term Loan, together with accrued interest thereon and all other
Obligations owing to Lender under the Loan Documents related to the Term Loan,
and third to all other Obligations owing to Lender under the Loan Documents,
such payment to be applied at such time and in such manner and order as Lender
shall decide in its sole discretion.

         2.12     INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

         2.13     INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

         2.14     PAYMENTS BY LENDER

                  Should any amount required to be paid under any Loan Document
be unpaid when due, such amount may be paid by Lender, which payment shall be
deemed a request for an Advance under the Revolving Facility as of the date such
payment is due, and Borrower irrevocably authorizes disbursement of any such
funds to Lender by way of direct payment of the relevant amount, interest or
Obligations. No payment or prepayment of any amount by Lender or any other
Person shall entitle any Person to be subrogated to the rights of Lender under
any Loan Document unless and until the Obligations have been fully performed and
paid irrevocably in cash and this Agreement has been terminated. Any sums
expended by Lender as a result of any Borrower's or any Guarantor's failure to
pay, perform or comply with any Loan Document or any of the Obligations may be
charged to Borrower's account as an Advance under the Revolving Facility and
added to the Obligations.

         2.15     GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST; COLLATERAL

                  (a) To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations,
each Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in and Lien
upon, and pledges to Lender, all of its right, title and interest in and to the
following (collectively and each individually, the "COLLATERAL"), which security
interest is intended to be a first priority security interest:

                           (i) all of such Borrower's tangible personal
property, including without limitation all present and future Inventory and
Equipment (including items of equipment which are or become Fixtures), now owned
or hereafter acquired;

                           (ii) all of such Borrower's intangible personal
property, including without limitation all present and future Accounts,
securities, contract rights, Permits, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper,
Documents, Instruments and Deposit Accounts, rights to the payment of money or
other

                                       7
<PAGE>

forms of consideration of any kind, tax refunds, insurance proceeds, now owned
or hereafter acquired, and all intangible and tangible personal property
relating to or arising out of any of the foregoing;

                           (iii) all of such Borrower's present and future
Government Contracts and rights thereunder and the related Government Accounts
and proceeds thereof, now or hereafter owned or acquired by such Borrower;
provided, however, that Lender shall not have a security interest in any rights
under any Government Contract of such Borrower or in the related Government
Account where the taking of such security interest would be a violation of an
express prohibition contained in the Government Contract (for purposes of this
limitation, the fact that a Government Contract is subject to, or otherwise
refers to, Title 31, ss. 203 or Title 41, ss. 15 of the United States Code shall
not be deemed an express prohibition against assignment thereof) or is
prohibited by applicable law; and

                           (iv) any and all additions to any of the foregoing,
and any and all replacements, products and proceeds (including insurance
proceeds) of any of the foregoing.

                  (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
2.15, such grant of a security interest shall not extend to, and the term
"Collateral" shall not include, any General Intangibles of Borrower to the
extent that (i) such General Intangibles are not assignable or capable of being
encumbered as a matter of law or under the terms of any license or other
agreement applicable thereto (but solely to the extent that any such restriction
shall be enforceable under applicable law) without the consent of the licensor
thereof or other applicable party thereto, and (ii) such consent has not been
obtained; provided, however, that the foregoing grant of a security interest
shall extend to, and the term "Collateral" shall include, each of the following:
(a) any General Intangible which is in the nature of an Account or a right to
the payment of money or a proceed of, or otherwise related to the enforcement or
collection of, any Account or right to the payment of money, or goods which are
the subject of any Account or right to the payment of money, (b) any and all
proceeds of any General Intangible that is otherwise excluded to the extent that
the assignment, pledge or encumbrance of such proceeds is not so restricted, and
(c) upon obtaining the consent of any such licensor or other applicable party
with respect to any such otherwise excluded General Intangible, such General
Intangible as well as any and all proceeds thereof that might theretofore have
been excluded from such grant of a security interest and from the term
"Collateral."

                  (c) In addition to the foregoing, to secure the payment and
performance of the Obligations, (i) Parent shall pledge to Lender all of the
securities it owns in Opticare and PVH, and (ii) PVH will pledge to Lender all
of the securities it owns in connection with its subsidiaries who are listed on
Schedule 2.15 hereto, in each case pursuant to the Stock Pledge Agreement.

                  (d) Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and
upon the proper filing of the necessary financing statements and proper delivery
of the necessary stock certificates, without any further action, Lender will
have a good, valid and perfected first priority Lien and security interest in
the Collateral, subject to no transfer or other restrictions or Liens of any
kind in favor of any other Person except for Permitted Liens. No financing
statement relating to any of the Collateral is on file in any public office
except those (i) on behalf of Lender, and/or (ii) in connection with Permitted
Liens.

         2.16     COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATION

                  (a) All Collateral (except Deposit Accounts) will at all times
be kept by Borrower at the locations set forth on Schedule 5.18 hereto and shall
not, without thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice to Lender, be moved
therefrom, and in any case shall not be moved outside the continental United
States.

                                       8
<PAGE>

                  (b) Borrower shall keep accurate and complete records of its
Accounts and all payments and collections thereon and shall submit such records
to Lender on such periodic bases as Lender may request. In addition, if Accounts
of Borrower in an aggregate face amount in excess of $250,000 become ineligible
because they fall within one of the specified categories of ineligibility set
forth in the definition of Eligible Receivables, Borrower shall notify Lender of
such occurrence on the report due on the fifteenth (15th) day of each month
unless an earlier Request for Advance is submitted following such occurrence and
the Borrowing Base shall thereupon be adjusted to reflect such occurrence. If
requested by Lender, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender formal written
assignments of all of its Accounts weekly or daily as Lender may request,
including all Accounts created since the date of the last assignment, together
with copies of claims, invoices and/or other information related thereto. To the
extent that collections from such assigned accounts exceed the amount of the
Obligations, such excess amount shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrower,
but shall be available to the Borrower upon Borrower's written request.

                  (c) Whether or not an Event of Default has occurred, any of
the Lender's officers, employees, representatives or agents shall have the
right, at any time during normal business hours, in the name of Lender, any
designee of Lender or Borrower, to verify the validity, amount or any other
matter relating to any Accounts of Borrower. Borrower shall cooperate fully with
Lender in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude such verification
process.

                  (d) To expedite collection, Borrower shall endeavor in the
first instance to make collection of its Accounts for Lender. Lender shall have
the right at all times after the occurrence of an Event of Default to notify (i)
Account Debtors owing Accounts to Borrower other than Medicaid/Medicare Account
Debtors that their Accounts have been assigned to Lender and to collect such
Accounts directly in its own name and to charge collection costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorney's fees, to Borrower, and (ii) Medicaid/Medicare
Account Debtors that Borrower has waived any and all defenses and counterclaims
it may have or could interpose in any such action or procedure brought by Lender
to obtain a court order recognizing the assignment or security interest and lien
of Lender in and to any Account or other Collateral and that Lender is seeking
or may seek to obtain a court order recognizing the assignment or security
interest and lien of Lender in and to all Accounts and other Collateral payable
by Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors.

                  (e) As and when determined by Lender in its reasonable
discretion, Lender will perform the searches described in clauses (i) and (ii)
below against Borrower and Guarantors (the results of which are to be consistent
with Borrower's representations and warranties under this Agreement), all at
Borrower's expense: (i) UCC searches with the Secretary of State of the
jurisdiction of organization of each Borrower and Guarantor and the Secretary of
State and local filing offices of each jurisdiction where Borrower and/or any
Guarantors maintains their respective executive offices, a place of business or
assets; and (ii) judgment, federal tax lien and corporate and partnership tax
lien searches, in each jurisdiction searched under clause (i) below.

                  (f) Borrower (i) shall provide prompt written notice to its
current bank to transfer all items, collections and remittances to the
Concentration Account, (ii) upon Lender's request after an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, shall provide prompt written notice to
each Account Debtor (other than Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors) that Lender
has been granted a lien and security interest in, upon and to all Accounts
applicable to such Account Debtor and shall direct each Account Debtor to make
payments to the appropriate Lockbox Account, and Borrower hereby authorizes
Lender, upon any failure to send such notices and directions within ten (10)
calendar days (or ten (10) calendar days after the Person becomes an Account
Debtor), to send any and all similar notices and directions to such Account
Debtors as set forth on Schedule 2.16 hereto, and (iii) shall do anything

                                       9
<PAGE>

further that may be lawfully required by Lender to secure Lender and effectuate
the intentions of the Loan Documents. At Lender's request, Borrower shall
immediately deliver to Lender all items for which Lender must receive possession
to obtain a perfected security interest and all notes, certificates, and
documents of title, chattel paper, warehouse receipts, instruments, and any
other similar instruments constituting Collateral.

         2.17     PROMISE TO PAY; MANNER OF PAYMENT

                  Borrower absolutely and unconditionally promises to pay
principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any other
Loan Document, without any right of rescission and without any deduction
whatsoever, including any deduction for any setoff, counterclaim or recoupment,
and notwithstanding any damage to, defects in or destruction of the Collateral
or any other event, including obsolescence of any property or improvements. Any
payments made by Borrower (other than payments automatically paid through
Advances under the Revolving Facility as provided herein), shall be made only by
wire transfer on the date when due, without offset or counterclaim, in Dollars,
in immediately available funds to such account as may be indicated in writing by
Lender to Borrower from time to time. Any such payment received after 3:00 p.m.
New York City Time on the date when due shall be deemed received on the
following Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due
or shall become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date
thereof shall be extended to, and such payment shall be made on, the next
succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time in such case shall be
included in the computation of payment of any interest (at the interest rate
then in effect during such extension) and/or fees, as the case may be.

         2.18     POWER OF ATTORNEY

         Lender is hereby irrevocably made, constituted and appointed the true
and lawful attorney for Borrower (without requiring any of them to act as such)
with full power of substitution to do the following: (i) endorse the name of any
such Person upon any and all checks, drafts, money orders, and other instruments
for the payment of money that are payable to such Person and constitute
collections on its or their Accounts; (ii) execute in the name of such Person
any financing statements, schedules, assignments, instruments, documents, and
statements that it is or they or are obligated to give Lender under any of the
Loan Documents; and (iii) do such other and further acts and deeds in the name
of such Person that Lender may deem necessary or desirable to enforce any
Account or other Collateral or to perfect Lender's security interest or lien in
any Collateral. In addition, if any such Person breaches its obligation
hereunder to direct payments of Accounts or the proceeds of any other Collateral
to the appropriate Lockbox Account, Lender, as the irrevocably made, constituted
and appointed true and lawful attorney for such Person pursuant to this
paragraph, may, by the signature or other act of any of Lender's officers or
authorized signatories (without requiring any of them to do so), direct any
federal, state or private payor or fiscal intermediary to pay proceeds of
Accounts or any other Collateral to the appropriate Lockbox Account.

III.     FEES AND OTHER CHARGES; ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PRICE

simultaneous with Opticare Acquisition becoming a Borrower hereunder pursuant to
the requirements of Section 7.6(b), Borrower paid to Lender an additional
nonrefundable commitment fee of $37,500 (equal to .75% of the $5,000,000
increase to the Facility Cap).

         3.2      UNUSED LINE FEE

                  Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly an unused line fee (the
"UNUSED LINE FEE") in an amount equal to .50 % (per annum) of the difference
derived by subtracting (i) the daily average amount of the balances under the
Revolving Facility outstanding during the preceding month, from (ii) the
Facility Cap. The Unused Line Fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the
first day of each successive calendar month (starting with the month in which
the Closing Date occurs).

         3.3      COLLATERAL MANAGEMENT FEE

                  Borrower shall pay Lender as additional interest a monthly
collateral management fee (the "COLLATERAL MANAGEMENT Fee") equal to 0.083% of

outstanding during the preceding month. The Collateral Management Fee shall be

         3.4      REVOLVER TERMINATION FEE; TERM LOAN FINANCE FEE

                  (a) Revolver Early Termination Fee. If (i) Borrower terminates
the Revolving Facility under Section 11.1 hereof, (ii) Borrower is required to
make payment in full of the Revolving Facility and/or Obligations relating to
the Revolving Facility upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, (iii) a
voluntary or involuntary Change of Control or payment pursuant to Section 2.11
occurs, (iv) any other voluntary or involuntary prepayment of the Revolving
Facility and/or Obligations relating to the Revolving Facility by Borrower or
any other Person occurs (other than reductions to zero of the outstanding
balance of the Revolving Facility resulting from the ordinary course operation
of the provisions of Section 2.5), whether by virtue of Lender's exercising its
right of set-off or otherwise, (v) Lender accelerates the Revolving Note or
makes any demand on the Revolving Note, or (vi) any payment or reduction of the
outstanding balance of the Revolving Note and/or the Revolving Facility is made
during a bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceeding or is made pursuant to
any plan of reorganization or liquidation or any Debtor Relief Law, (each, a
"REVOLVER TERMINATION"), then, at the effective date of any such termination,
Borrower shall pay Lender (in addition to the then outstanding principal,
accrued interest and other Obligations relating to the Revolving Facility
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document), as yield
maintenance for the loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an amount equal to (x)
if the revolver termination occurs prior to December 31, 2004, 2% of the
Facility Cap, or (y) if the revolver termination occurs on or after December 31,
2004, but prior to expiration of the Revolving Facility Term, 1% of the Facility
Cap; provided, however, that in the event the revolver termination arises

December 31, 2004, the greater of (1) 2% of the Facility Cap and (2) the Yield
Maintenance Amount, and (y) if the revolver termination occurs prior to
expiration of the Revolving Facility Term, the greater of (1) 1% of the Facility

                  (b) Term Loan Finance Fee. Upon (i) termination of the Term
Loan for any reason, (ii) acceleration of the Term Loan on account of any
bankruptcy proceeding, liquidation or Debtor Relief Law, or (iii) upon repayment
of the Term Loan in full (each, a "TERM LOAN TERMINATION"), then, at the
effective date of any such Term Loan Termination, Borrower shall pay Lender (in
addition to the then outstanding principal, accrued interest and other
Obligations relating to the Term Loan owing under the Term Loan pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document), as yield maintenance for
the loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an amount equal to two percent (2%) of
the Term Loan amount.

         3.5      COMPUTATION OF FEES; LAWFUL LIMITS

                  All fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of
360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed in each calculation period,
as applicable. In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
acceleration or otherwise, shall the interest and other charges paid or agreed
to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money hereunder
exceed the maximum rate permissible under applicable law which a court of
competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto.
If, due to any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, at
the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall exceed any such
limit, then, the obligation to be so fulfilled shall be reduced to such lawful
limit, and, if Lender shall have received interest or any other charges of any
kind which might be deemed to be interest under applicable law in excess of the
maximum lawful rate, then such excess shall be applied first to any unpaid fees
and charges hereunder, then to unpaid principal balance owed by Borrower
hereunder, and if the then remaining excess interest is greater than the
previously unpaid principal balance, Lender shall promptly refund such excess
amount to Borrower and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide
for such permissible rate. The terms and provisions of this Section 3.5 shall
control to the extent any other provision of any Loan Document is inconsistent
herewith.

         3.6      DEFAULT RATE OF INTEREST

                  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, the Applicable Rate of interest in effect at such time with respect to
the Obligations shall be increased by 3.0% per annum (the "DEFAULT RATE").

         3.7      ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY

                  Each Borrower acknowledges that it is jointly and severally
liable for all of the Obligations under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower
expressly understands, agrees and acknowledges that (i) it is affiliated by
common ownership, (ii) each Borrower desires to have the availability of one
common credit facility instead of separate credit facilities, (iii) each
Borrower has requested that Lender extend such a common credit facility on the
terms herein provided, (iv) Lender will be lending against, and relying on a
lien upon, all of the Borrowers' assets even though the proceeds of any
particular loan made hereunder may not be advanced directly to a particular
Borrower, (v) each Borrower will nonetheless benefit by the making of all such
loans by Lender and the availability of a single credit facility of a size
greater than each could independently warrant, and (vi) all of the
representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements and
other terms contained in the Loan Documents shall be applicable to and shall be
binding upon each Borrower.

                                       12

         3.8      WARRANTS

                  As additional consideration for the extensions of credit
hereunder and as more fully described in the Warrant Agreement, Systems shall
issue and deliver to CapitalSource Holdings LLC on the Closing Date, the
Warrant. The Warrant and number of securities purchasable upon exercise of the
Warrant shall be subject to adjustment and shall be subject to various rights in
favor of Lender as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

         3.9      ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PRICE

                  Under both GAAP consistently applied and the regulations of
the Internal Revenue Service, the issuance to Lender of the Term Note and the
Warrant for an aggregate purchase price equal to the aggregate principal amount
of the Term Note being so purchased results in the creation of "original issue
discount" on such Term Note (which original issue discount may also be deemed to
constitute the value of any Warrant issued in connection with the issuance of
such Term Note), and such regulations require the determination of the value of
any warrant so delivered. Pursuant to GAAP consistently applied and applicable
Treasury Regulations, Borrower and Lender agree to allocate $298,170 of the
purchase price to the Term Note and the remaining $18,300 of the purchase price
to the Warrant and that such allocation reflects the relative fair market values
of the Term Note and the Warrant as of their issue date. Borrower and Lender
agree to recognize and adhere to the determinations and allocations of original
issue discount and valuation of the Warrant set forth herein for all federal and
state income tax purposes. In the event of any proposed transfer of the Term
Note by Lender, Lender shall, prior to such transfer, mark the Term Note with a
legend pertaining to the original issue discount in the form required by
Treasury Regulation Section 1.1275-3(b)(1).

V.       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

                  Each Borrower, jointly and severally, represents and warrants
as of the date hereof, the Closing Date, each Borrowing Date and, if applicable,
the date of funding of the Term Loan as follows:

         5.1      ORGANIZATION AND AUTHORITY

                  Each Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of formation. Each
Borrower (i) has all requisite corporate power and authority to own its
properties and assets and to carry on its business as now being conducted and as
contemplated in the Loan Documents, (ii) is duly qualified to do business in
every jurisdiction in which failure so to qualify could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) has all requisite power and
authority (A) to execute, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is
a party, (B) to borrow hereunder, (C) to consummate the transactions
contemplated under the Loan Documents, and (D) to grant the Liens with regard to
the Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents to which it is a party. No
Borrower is an "investment company" registered or required to be registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or is controlled by such
an "investment company."

         5.2      LOAN DOCUMENTS

                  The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the
Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby, (i) have been duly authorized by all requisite action of
each such Person and have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of
each such Person; (ii) do not violate any provisions of (A) applicable law,
statute, rule, regulation, ordinance or tariff, (B) any order of any
Governmental Authority binding on any such Person or any of their respective
properties, or (C) the certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or any other
equivalent governing agreement or document) of any such Person, or any agreement
between any such Person and its respective shareholders, members, partners or
equity owners or among any such shareholders, members, partners or equity
owners; (iii) are not in conflict with, and do not result in a breach or default
of or constitute an event of default, or an event, fact, condition or
circumstance which, with notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute or
result in a conflict, material breach, material default or event of default
under, any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which any such Person is
a party, or by which the properties or assets of such Person are bound; (iv)
except as set forth therein, will not result in the creation or imposition of
any Lien of any nature upon any of the properties or assets of any such Person,
and (iv) except as set forth on Schedule 5.2, do not require the consent,
approval or authorization of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any
Governmental Authority or any other Person. When executed and delivered, each of
the Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party will constitute the legal, valid
and binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance
with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, moratorium,
insolvency, reorganization or other similar law affecting the enforceability of
creditors' rights generally and to the effect of general principles of equity
which may limit the availability of equitable remedies (whether in a proceeding
at law or in equity).

capitalization of each Borrower, the number and class of equity securities
and/or ownership, voting or partnership interests issued and outstanding of
Borrower and the record and beneficial owners thereof (including options,
warrants and other rights to acquire any of the foregoing). The outstanding
equity securities and/or ownership, voting or partnership interests of Borrower
have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable, and each Person listed on Schedule 5.3 owns beneficially and of
record all the equity securities and/or ownership, voting or partnership
interests it is listed as owning free and clear of any Liens other than Liens
created by the Security Documents. Schedule 5.3 also lists the directors,
members, managers and/or partners of Borrower. Except as listed on Schedule 5.3,
Borrower does not own an interest or participates or engages in any joint
venture, partnership or similar arrangements with any Person.

         5.4      TITLE TO PROPERTIES; ACQUISITIONS

                  (a) Each Borrower (i) is the sole owner and has good, valid
and marketable title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all of its properties
and assets, including the Collateral, whether personal or real, subject to no
transfer restrictions or Liens of any kind except for Permitted Liens, and (ii)
is in compliance in all material respects with each lease to which it is a party
or otherwise bound. Schedule 5.4 lists all real properties (and their locations)
owned or leased by or to, and all other assets or property that are leased or
licensed by, Borrower and all leases (including leases of leased real property)
covering or with respect to such properties and assets. Borrower enjoys peaceful
and undisturbed possession under all such leases and such leases are all the
leases necessary for the operation of such properties and assets, are valid and
subsisting and are in full force and effect.

                  (b) The Wise Asset Purchase Agreement has been executed and
delivered by each party thereto and the Wise Acquisition and other transactions
contemplated thereby have been consummated, and the terms and conditions of the
Wise Asset Purchase Agreement constitute the valid and binding obligations of
each party thereto, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws
affecting creditors' rights generally and to general principals of equity,
regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in law or in equity. Opticare
Acquisition owns the "Assets" (as defined in the Wise Asset Purchase Agreement)
free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens.

         5.5      OTHER AGREEMENTS

                  Borrower is not (i) a party to any judgment, order or decree
or any agreement, document or instrument, or subject to any restriction, which
would affect its ability to execute and deliver, or perform under, any Loan
Document or to pay the Obligations, (ii) in default in the performance,
observance or fulfillment of any obligation, covenant or condition contained in
any agreement, document or instrument to which it is a party or to which any of
its properties or assets are subject, which default, if not remedied within any
applicable grace or cure period could reasonably be likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect, nor is there any event, fact, condition or circumstance which,
with notice or passage of time or both, would constitute or result in a
conflict, breach, default or event of default under, any of the foregoing which,
if not remedied within any applicable grace or cure period could reasonably be
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) a party or subject to any
agreement, document or instrument with respect to, or obligation to pay any,
service or management fee with respect to, the ownership, operation, leasing or
performance of any of its business or any facility, nor is there any manager
with respect to any such facility.

         5.6      LITIGATION

                  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.6 hereto, there is no

threatened against Borrower that (i) questions or could prevent the validity of
any of the Loan Documents or the right of Borrower to enter into any Loan
Document or to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) could
reasonably be likely to be or have, either individually or in the aggregate, any

the extent imposed on Lender's net income. If Borrower shall be required by law
to deduct any such amounts from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan
Document to Lender, then the sum payable to Lender shall be increased as may be
necessary so that, after making all required deductions, Lender receives an

lender similar to Lender (A) subjects Lender to any tax, levy, impost,
deduction, assessment, charge or withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect

imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state or
local taxing authorities with respect to interest or commitment fees or other
fees payable hereunder or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income
of Lender), or (B) imposes on Lender any other condition or increased cost in
connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of
making or continuing any Loan hereunder or to reduce any amount receivable
hereunder, then, in any such case, Borrower shall pay to Lender within thirty
(30) days of notice upon Lender any additional amounts necessary to compensate
Lender, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount as
determined by Lender. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 6.14 it shall promptly notify Borrower of the event by
reason of which Lender has become so entitled, and each such notice of
additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 6.14 submitted by Lender to
Borrower shall, absent manifest error, be presumptive and conclusive for all
purposes. Without limiting or being limited by any other provision of any Loan
Document, Borrower at all times shall retain and use a Person acceptable to
Lender to process, manage and pay its payroll taxes and shall cause to be
delivered to Lender within fifteen (15) calendar days after the end of each
calendar quarter a report of its payroll taxes for the immediately preceding

consolidated tax return which was filed on behalf of Borrower, (ii) notices of
tax assessment or possible tax assessment, (iii) years that are designated open
pending tax examination or audit, and (iv) information that could give rise to

(iii) prohibit any action permitted to be taken under Article VII hereof.

IX.      RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AFTER DEFAULT

         9.1      RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

                  (a) In addition to the acceleration provisions set forth in
Article VIII above, upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default,
Lender shall have the right to exercise any and all rights, options and remedies
provided for in any Loan Document, under the UCC or at law or in equity,
including, without limitation, the right to (i) apply any property of any
Borrower held by Lender to reduce the Obligations, (ii) foreclose the Liens
created under the Security Documents, (iii) realize upon, take possession of
and/or sell any Collateral or securities pledged (other than Collateral
consisting of Accounts owed or owing by Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors absent
a court order or compliance with applicable law) with or without judicial
process, (iv) exercise all rights and powers with respect to the Collateral as
any Borrower, as applicable, might exercise (other than with respect to
Collateral consisting of Accounts owed or owing by Medicaid/Medicare Account
Debtors absent a court order or compliance with applicable law), (v) collect and
send notices regarding the Collateral (other than with respect to Collateral
consisting of Accounts owed or owing by Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors absent
a court order or compliance with applicable law), with or without judicial
process, (vi) by its own means or with judicial assistance, enter any premises
at which Collateral and/or pledged securities are located, or render any of the
foregoing unusable or dispose of the Collateral and/or pledged securities on
such premises without any liability for rent, storage, utilities, or other sums,
and no Borrower shall resist or interfere with such action, (vii) at Borrower's
expense, require that all or any part of the Collateral be assembled and made
available to Lender at any place designated by Lender, (viii) reduce or
otherwise change the Facility Cap and/or the Maximum Loan Amount, and/or (ix)
relinquish or abandon any Collateral or securities pledged or any Lien thereon.
Notwithstanding any provision of any Loan Document, Lender, in its sole
discretion, shall have the right, at any time that Borrower fails to do so, and
from time to time, with prior notice which need not be in writing, to: (i)
obtain insurance covering any of the Collateral to the extent required
hereunder; (ii) pay for the performance of any of Obligations; (iii) discharge
taxes or Liens on any of the Collateral that are in violation of any Loan
document unless the Borrower is in good faith with due diligence by appropriate
proceedings contesting those items; and (iv) pay for the maintenance and
preservation of the Collateral. Such expenses and advances shall be added to the
Obligations until reimbursed to Lender and shall be secured by the Collateral,
and such payments by Lender shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender of any
Event of Default or any other rights or remedies of Lender.

                  (b) Borrower agrees that notice received by it at least ten
(10) calendar days before the time of any intended public sale, or the time
after which any private sale or other disposition of Collateral is to be made,
shall be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. If
permitted by applicable law, any perishable Collateral which threatens to
speedily decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold
immediately by Lender without prior notice to Borrower. At any sale or
disposition of Collateral or securities pledged, Lender may (to the extent

                                       34
<PAGE>

permitted by applicable law) purchase all or any part thereof free from any
right of redemption by any Borrower which right is hereby waived and released.
Debtor covenants and agrees not to, and not to permit or cause any of its
Subsidiaries to, interfere with or impose any obstacle to Secured Party's
exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral. Secured
Party, in dealing with or disposing of the Collateral or any part thereof, shall
not be required to give priority or preference to any item of Collateral or
otherwise to marshal assets or to take possession or sell any Collateral with
judicial process.

         9.2      RIGHTS AND REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE

                  Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion to
determine which rights, Liens and/or remedies Lender may at any time pursue,
relinquish, subordinate or modify, and such determination will not in any way
modify or affect any of Lender's rights, Liens or remedies under any Loan
Document, applicable law or equity. The enumeration of any rights and remedies
in any Loan Document is not intended to be exhaustive, and all rights and
remedies of Lender described in any Loan Document are cumulative and are not
alternative to or exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Lender
otherwise may have. The partial or complete exercise of any right or remedy
shall not preclude any other further exercise of such or any other right or
remedy.

                  9.3      APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

                  In addition to any other rights, options and remedies Lender
has under the Loan Documents, the UCC, at law or in equity, all dividends,
interest, rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues, income and other proceeds
collected or received from collecting, holding, managing, renting, selling, or
otherwise disposing of all or any part of the Collateral or any proceeds thereof
upon exercise of its remedies hereunder shall be applied in the following order
of priority: (i) first, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses of
such collection, storage, lease, holding, operation, management, sale,
disposition or delivery and of conducting Borrower's business and of
maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements of
or to the Collateral, and to the payment of all sums which Lender may be
required or may elect to pay, if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance and
other charges upon the Collateral or any part thereof, and all other payments
that Lender may be required or authorized to make under any provision of this
Agreement (including, without limitation, in each such case, in-house
documentation and diligence fees and legal expenses, search, audit, recording,
professional and filing fees and expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees and all
expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred in connection therewith);
(ii) second, to the payment of all Obligations as provided herein; (iii) third,
to the satisfaction of Indebtedness secured by any subordinate security interest
of record in the Collateral if written notification of demand therefor is
received before distribution of the proceeds is completed, provided, that, if
requested by Lender, the holder of a subordinate security interest shall furnish
reasonable proof of its interest, and unless it does so, Lender need not address
its claims; and (iv) fourth, to the payment of any surplus then remaining to
Borrower, unless otherwise provided by law or directed by a court of competent
jurisdiction, provided that Borrower shall be liable for any deficiency if such
proceeds are insufficient to satisfy the Obligations or any of the other items
referred to in this section.

         9.4      RIGHTS OF LENDER TO APPOINT RECEIVER

                  Without limiting and in addition to any other rights, options
and remedies Lender has under the Loan Documents, the UCC, at law or in equity,
upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, Lender shall have
the right to apply for and have a receiver appointed by a court of

                                       35
<PAGE>

competent jurisdiction in any action taken by Lender to enforce its rights and
remedies in order to manage, protect and preserve the Collateral and continue
the operation of the business of Borrower and to collect all revenues and
profits thereof and apply the same to the payment of all expenses and other
charges of such receivership including the compensation of the receiver and to
the payments as aforesaid until a sale or other disposition of such Collateral
shall be finally made and consummated.

X.       WAIVERS AND JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS

         10.1     WAIVERS

                  Except as expressly provided for herein, Borrower hereby
waives demand, presentment, protest, all defenses with respect to any and all
instruments and all notices and demands of any description, and the pleading of
any statute of limitations as a defense to any demand under any Loan Document.
Borrower hereby waives any and all defenses and counterclaims it may have or
could interpose in any action or procedure brought by Lender to obtain an order
of court recognizing the assignment of, or Lien of Lender in and to, any
Collateral, whether or not payable by a Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtor. With
respect to any action hereunder, Lender conclusively may relay upon, and shall
incur no liability to Borrower in acting upon, any request or other
communication that Lender reasonably believes to have been given or made by a
Person authorized on Borrower's behalf, whether or not such Person is listed on
the incumbency certificate delivered pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof. In each
such case, Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute Lender's action based
upon such request or other communication, absent manifest error.

         10.2     DELAY; NO WAIVER OF DEFAULTS

                  No course of action or dealing, renewal, release or extension
of any provision of any Loan Document, or single or partial exercise of any such
provision, or delay, failure or omission on Lender's part in enforcing any such
provision shall affect the liability of any Borrower or Guarantor or operate as
a waiver of such provision or affect the liability of any Borrower or Guarantor
or preclude any other or further exercise of such provision. No waiver by any
party to any Loan Document of any one or more defaults by any other party in the
performance of any of the provisions of any Loan Document shall operate or be
construed as a waiver of any future default, whether of a like or different
nature, and each such waiver shall be limited solely to the express terms and
provisions of such waiver. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan
Document, by completing the Closing under this Agreement and/or by making
Advances or funding the Term Loan, Lender does not waive any breach of any
representation or warranty of under any Loan Document, and all of Lender's
claims and rights resulting from any such breach or misrepresentation are
specifically reserved.

         10.3     JURY WAIVER

                  EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE
PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
THEREBY, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN
CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH
CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND
THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS

                                       36
<PAGE>

AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY
COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR
RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.

         10.4     COOPERATION IN DISCOVERY AND LITIGATION

                  In any litigation, arbitration or other dispute resolution
proceeding relating to any Loan Document, Borrower waives any and all defenses,
objections and counterclaims it may have or could interpose with respect to (i)
any of its directors, officers, employees or agents being deemed to be employees
or managing agents of Borrower for purposes of all applicable law or court rules
regarding the production of witnesses by notice for testimony (whether in a
deposition, at trial or otherwise), (ii) Lender's counsel examining any such
individuals as if under cross-examination and using any discovery deposition of
any of them as if it were an evidence deposition, and/or (iii) using all
commercially reasonable efforts to produce in any such dispute resolution
proceeding, at the time and in the manner requested by Lender, all Persons,
documents (whether in tangible, electronic or other form) and/or other things
under its control and relating to the dispute.

XI.      EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION

         11.1     EFFECTIVENESS AND TERMINATION

                  Subject to Lender's right to terminate and cease making Loans
upon or after any Event of Default, this Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect until the full performance and indefeasible payment in cash of all
Obligations, unless terminated sooner as provided in this Section 11.1. Borrower
may terminate this Agreement at any time upon not less than ten (10) calendar
days' prior written notice to Lender and upon full performance and indefeasible
payment in full in cash of all Obligations on or prior to such 10th calendar day
after Receipt by Lender of such written notice; provided, however, that,
notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, Borrower shall have no
right to terminate the Revolving Loan, until after the first anniversary of the
Closing Date. All of the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable upon
any such termination on the termination date stated in any notice of termination
(the "TERMINATION DATE"); provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of
any Loan Document, the Termination Date shall be effective no earlier than the
first Business Day of the month following the expiration of the ten (10)
calendar days' prior written notice period. Notwithstanding any other provision
of any Loan Document, no termination of this Agreement shall affect Lender's
rights or any of the Obligations existing as of the effective date of such
termination, and the provisions of the Loan Documents shall continue to be fully
operative until the Obligations have been fully performed and indefeasibly paid
in cash in full. The Liens granted to Lender under the Security Documents and
the financing statements filed pursuant thereto and the rights and powers of
Lender shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the fact that
Borrower's borrowings hereunder may from time to time be in a zero or credit
position until all of the Obligations have been fully performed and indefeasibly
paid in full in cash.

         11.2     SURVIVAL

                  All obligations, covenants, agreements, representations,
warranties, waivers and indemnities made by Borrower in any Loan Document shall
survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the Closing, the
making of the Loans and any termination of this Agreement until all Obligations
are fully performed and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The obligations and
provisions of Sections 3.5, 3.6, 10.1, 10.3, 11.1, 11.2, 12.4, 12.7 and 12.9
shall survive termination of the Loan Documents and any payment, in full or in
part, of the Obligations.

                                       37
<PAGE>

XII.     MISCELLANEOUS

         12.1     GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS; VENUE

                  The Loan Documents shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect
to its choice of law provisions other than Section 5-1401 of the New York
General Obligation laws. Any judicial proceeding against Borrower with respect
to the Obligations, any Loan Document or any related agreement may be brought in
any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of New
York. By execution and delivery of each Loan Document to which it is a party,
Borrower and Lenders (i) accept the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid
courts and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby, (ii)
waive personal service of process, (iii) agree that service of process may be
made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, pursuant to
Section 12.5 hereof, and (iv) waive any objection to jurisdiction, venue of any
action instituted hereunder and agrees not to assert any defense based on lack
of jurisdiction or venue convenience. Nothing shall affect the right of Lender
to serve process in any manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of
Lender to bring proceedings against Borrower in any other courts having
jurisdiction. Any judicial proceedings against Lender involving, directly or
indirectly, the Obligations, any Loan Document or any related agreement shall be
brought only in a federal or state court located in the State of New York. All
parties acknowledge that they participated in the negotiation and drafting of
this Agreement and that, accordingly, no party shall move or petition a court
construing this Agreement to construe it more stringently against one party than
against any other.

         12.2     SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; PARTICIPATIONS; NEW LENDERS

                  The Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of Lender,
Transferees and all future holders of any Note, the Obligations and/or any of
the Collateral, and each of their respective successors and assigns. Each Loan
Document shall be binding upon the Persons' other than Lender that are parties
thereto and their respective successors and assigns, and no such Person may
assign, delegate or transfer any Loan Document or any of its rights or
obligations thereunder without the prior written consent of Lender. No rights
are intended to be created under any Loan Document for the benefit of any third
party creditor or incidental beneficiary of any Borrower or Guarantor. Nothing
contained in any Loan Document shall be construed as a delegation to Lender of
any other Person's duty of performance. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT
Lender at any time and from time to time may (I) DIVIDE AND RESTATE ANY NOTE,
AND/OR (II) sell, assign or GRANT PARTICIPATING INTERESTS IN OR transfer all or
any part of its rights or obligations under ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, Note, the
obligations AND/OR the collateral TO OTHER PERSONS (EACH SUCH TRANSFEREE,
ASSIGNEE OR PURCHASER, A "TRANSFEREE"). Each Transferee shall have all of the
rights and benefits with respect to the Obligations, Notes, Collateral and/or
Loan Documents held by it as fully as if the original holder thereof, and either
Lender or any Transferee may be designated as the sole agent to manage the
transactions and obligations contemplated therein; provided that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, Borrower shall
not be obligated to pay under this Agreement to any Transferee any sum in excess
of the sum which Borrower would have been obligated to pay to Lender had such
participation not been effected. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan
Document, Lender may disclose to any Transferee all information, reports,
financial statements, certificates and documents obtained under any provision of
any Loan Document.

                                       38
<PAGE>

         12.3     APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS

                  To the extent that any payment made or received with respect
to the Obligations is subsequently invalidated, determined to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in
possession, receiver, custodian or any other Person under any Debtor Relief Law,
common law or equitable cause or any other law, then the Obligations intended to
be satisfied by such payment shall be revived and shall continue as if such
payment had not been received by Lender. Any payments with respect to the
Obligations received shall be credited and applied in such manner and order as
Lender shall decide in its sole discretion.

         12.4     INDEMNITY

                  Each Borrower jointly and severally shall indemnify Lender,
its affiliates and its and their respective managers, members, officers,
employees, affiliates, agents, representatives, successors, assigns, accountants
and attorneys (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED PERSONS") from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and
in-house documentation and diligence fees and legal expenses) which may be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person with respect
to or arising out of, or in any litigation, proceeding or investigation
instituted or conducted by any Person with respect to any aspect of, or any
transaction contemplated by or referred to in, or any matter related to, any
Loan Document or any agreement, document or transaction contemplated thereby,
whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party thereto, except to the extent
that any of the foregoing arises out of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnified Person. If any Indemnified Person uses in-house
counsel for any purpose for which any Borrower is responsible to pay or
indemnify, each Borrower expressly agrees that its indemnification obligations
include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would
otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by such Indemnified
Person in its sole discretion for the work performed. Lender agrees to give
Borrower reasonable notice of any event of which Lender becomes aware for which
indemnification may be required under this Section 12.4, and Lender may elect
(but is not obligated) to direct the defense thereof, provided that the
selection of counsel shall be subject to Borrower's consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any Indemnified Person may, in its
reasonable discretion and with Borrower's consent, take such actions as it deems
necessary and appropriate to investigate, defend or settle any event or take
other remedial or corrective actions with respect thereto as may be necessary
for the protection of such Indemnified Person or the Collateral. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any insurer agrees to undertake the defense of an event (an
"INSURED EVENT"), Lender agrees not to exercise its right to select counsel to
defend the event if that would cause any Borrower's insurer to deny coverage;
provided, however, that Lender reserves the right to retain counsel to represent
any Indemnified Person with respect to an Insured Event at its sole cost and
expense. To the extent that Lender obtains recovery from a third party other
than an Indemnified Person of any of the amounts that any Borrower has paid to
Lender pursuant to the indemnity set forth in this Section 12.4, then Lender
shall promptly pay to such Borrower the amount of such recovery.

         12.5     NOTICE

                  Any notice or request under any Loan Document shall be given
to any party to this Agreement at such party's address set forth beneath its
signature on the signature page to this Agreement, or at such other address as
such party may hereafter specify in a notice given in the manner required under
this Section 12.5. Any notice or request hereunder shall be given only by, and
shall be deemed to have been received upon (each, a "RECEIPT"): (i) registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, on the date on which such received
as indicated in such return receipt, (ii) delivery by a nationally

                                       39
<PAGE>

recognized overnight courier, one (1) Business Day after deposit with such
courier, or (iii) facsimile or electronic transmission on a Business Day, in
each case upon telephone or further electronic communication from the recipient
acknowledging receipt (whether automatic or manual from recipient), as
applicable.

         12.6     SEVERABILITY; CAPTIONS; COUNTERPARTS; FACSIMILE SIGNATURES

                  If any provision of any Loan Document is adjudicated to be
invalid under applicable laws or regulations, such provision shall be
inapplicable to the extent of such invalidity without affecting the validity or
enforceability of the remainder of the Loan Documents which shall be given
effect so far as possible. The captions in the Loan Documents are intended for
convenience and reference only and shall not affect the meaning or
interpretation of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents may be executed in one
or more counterparts (which taken together, as applicable, shall constitute one
and the same instrument) and by facsimile transmission, which facsimile
signatures shall be considered original executed counterparts. Each party to
this Agreement agrees that it will be bound by its own facsimile signature and
that it accepts the facsimile signature of each other party.

         12.7     EXPENSES

                  Borrower shall pay, whether or not the Closing occurs, all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender and/or its affiliates,
including, without limitation, documentation and diligence fees and expenses,
all search, audit, appraisal, recording, professional and filing fees and
expenses and all other out-of-pocket charges and expenses (including, without
limitation, UCC and judgment and tax lien searches and UCC filings and fees for
post-Closing UCC and judgment and tax lien searches and wire transfer fees and
audit expenses), and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, (i) in any effort
to enforce, protect or collect payment of any Obligation or to enforce any Loan
Document or any related agreement, document or instrument, (ii) in connection
with entering into, negotiating, preparing, reviewing and executing the Loan
Documents and/or any related agreements, documents or instruments, (iii) in
connection with instituting, maintaining, preserving, enforcing and/or
foreclosing on Lender's Liens in any of the Collateral or securities pledged
under the Loan Documents, whether through judicial proceedings or otherwise,
(iv) in defending or prosecuting any actions, claims or proceedings arising out
of or relating to Lender's transactions with Borrower, (v) in seeking, obtaining
or receiving any advice with respect to its rights and obligations under any
Loan Document and any related agreement, document or instrument, and/or (vi) in
connection with any modification, restatement, supplement, amendment, waiver or
extension of any Loan Document and/or any related agreement, document or
instrument. All of the foregoing shall be charged to Borrower's account and
shall be part of the Obligations. If Lender or any of its affiliates uses
in-house counsel for any purpose under any Loan Document for which Borrower is
responsible to pay or indemnify, Borrower expressly agrees that its Obligations
include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would
otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by Lender or such
affiliate in its sole discretion for the work performed. Without limiting the
foregoing, Borrower shall pay all taxes (other than taxes based upon or measured
by Lender's income or revenues or any personal property tax), if any, in
connection with the issuance of any Note and the filing and/or recording of any
documents and/or financing statements.

         12.8     ENTIRE AGREEMENT

                  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrower
is a party constitute the entire agreement between Borrower and Lender with
respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof or

                                       40
<PAGE>

thereof. Any promises, representations, warranties or guarantees not herein
contained and hereinafter made shall have no force and effect unless in writing
signed by Borrower and Lender. No provision of this Agreement may be changed,
modified, amended, restated, waived, supplemented, discharged, canceled or
terminated orally or by any course of dealing or in any other manner other than
by an agreement in writing signed by Lender and Borrower. Each party hereto
acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in connection with the
negotiation and execution of this Agreement and is not relying upon oral
representations or statements inconsistent with the terms and provisions hereof.

         12.9     LENDER APPROVALS

                  Unless expressly provided herein to the contrary, any
approval, consent, waiver or satisfaction of Lender with respect to any matter
that is subject of any Loan Document may be granted or withheld by Lender in its
sole and absolute discretion.

         12.10    CONFIDENTIALITY AND PUBLICITY

                  Borrower agrees, and agrees to cause each of its affiliates,
(i) not to transmit or disclose provision of any Loan Document to any Person
(other than to Borrower's advisors and officers on a need-to-know basis) without
Lender's prior written consent, (ii) to inform all Persons of the confidential
nature of the Loan Documents and to direct them not to disclose the same to any
other Person and to require each of them to be bound by these provisions. Lender
reserves the right to review and approve all materials that Borrower or any of
its affiliates prepares that contain Lender's name or describe or refer to any
Loan Document, any of the terms thereof or any of the transactions contemplated
thereby. Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its affiliates to, use
Lender's name (or the name of any of Lender's affiliates) in connection with any
of its business operations. Nothing contained in any Loan Document is intended
to permit or authorize Borrower or any of its affiliates to contract on behalf
of Lender.

         12.11    RELEASE OF LENDER

                  Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document,
Borrower voluntarily, knowingly, unconditionally and irrevocably, with specific
and express intent, for and on behalf of itself, its managers, members,
directors, officers, employees, stockholders, Affiliates, agents,
representatives, accountants, attorneys, successors and assigns and their
respective Affiliates (collectively, the "RELEASING PARTIES"), hereby fully and
completely releases and forever discharges the Indemnified Parties and any other
Person or insurer which may be responsible or liable for the acts or omissions
of any of the Indemnified Parties, or who may be liable for the injury or damage
resulting therefrom (collectively, with the Indemnified Parties, the "RELEASED
PARTIES"), of and from any and all actions, causes of action, damages, claims,
obligations, liabilities, costs, expenses and demands of any kind whatsoever, at
law or in equity, matured or unmatured, vested or contingent, that any of the
Releasing Parties has against any of the Released Parties as of the date of the
Closing. Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing release is a material
inducement to Lender's decision to extend to Borrower the financial
accommodations hereunder and has been relied upon by Lender in agreeing to make
the Advances.
