Re:          Initial Public Offering

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

This letter is being delivered to you in accordance with the
Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by
and between Oracle Healthcare Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
and CRT Capital Group LLC (the “Underwriter”), relating to an
underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) of the Company’s units
(the “Units”), each comprised of one share of the Company’s common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and one warrant
exercisable for one share of Common Stock (the “Warrants”).  Certain capitalized terms used herein are
defined in paragraph 10 hereof.

 

In order to induce the Company and the Underwriter to enter into the
Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the IPO, and in recognition of the
benefit that such IPO will confer upon the undersigned as a stockholder of the
Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees
with the Company and the Underwriter as follows:

 

1.             If the Company solicits approval of its
stockholders of a Business Combination, the undersigned will vote all shares of
Common Stock, including Insider Shares and IPO Shares, owned by him in
accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the Public Stockholders.

 

2.             In the event that the Company fails to
consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the effective date (“Effective
Date”) of the registration statement relating to the IPO or 24 months under
the circumstances described in the prospectus relating to the IPO (the first to
occur of such dates, the “Transaction Failure Date”), the undersigned
will take all reasonable actions within his power to (i) cause the Trust
Fund to be liquidated and distributed to the holders of the IPO Shares as soon
as practicable but in no event later than 60 (sixty) calendar days after the
Transaction Failure Date and (ii) cause the Company to dissolve and
liquidate as soon as practicable (the earliest date on which the conditions in
clauses (i) and (ii) are both satisfied being the “Liquidation
Date”).  The undersigned hereby
waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any
distributions of the Trust Fund as a result of such distribution, or to any
other amounts distributed in connection with a liquidating distribution of the
Company with respect to his Insider Shares (“Claim”) and hereby waives
any Claim the undersigned may have in the future as a result of, or arising out
of, any contracts or agreements with the Company and will not seek

 

 

recourse against the Trust
Fund for any reason whatsoever.  The
undersigned hereby agrees that the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement
from the undersigned for any distribution of the Trust Fund, or any other amounts
distributed by the Company in connection with a liquidating distribution,
received by the undersigned in respect of such person’s Insider Shares.

 

3.             In order to minimize potential conflicts of
interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, the undersigned agrees to
present to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any
other person or entity, any suitable opportunity to acquire all or
substantially all of the outstanding equity securities of, or otherwise acquire
or acquire control of (through merger, capital stock exchange, asset
acquisition, stock purchase or other business combination), an operating
business in the health care industry, until the earlier of the consummation by
the Company of a Business Combination, the distribution of the Trust Fund or
until such time as the undersigned ceases to be an officer or director of the
Company; provided,  however, that the presentation of such opportunities to the Company
shall in each case be subject to any fiduciary or contractual obligation of the
undersigned arising from a fiduciary or contractual relationship established
prior to the undersigned’s fiduciary relationship with the Company.

 

4.             The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that
the Company will not consummate any Business Combination which involves a
company which is affiliated with any of the Insiders or their respective
affiliates unless the Company obtains an opinion from an independent investment
banking firm that the business combination is fair to the Company’s stockholders
from a financial perspective.

 

5.             Neither the undersigned, any member of the
family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be
entitled to receive and will not accept any compensation for services rendered
to the Company prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, provided
that commencing on the effective date of the IPO, Oracle Investment Management, Inc.
(“Related Party”) shall be allowed to charge the Company $7,500 per
month to compensate it for the Company’s use of Related Party’s offices,
utilities and personnel.  The undersigned
shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for his out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with seeking and consummating a Business
Combination.

 

6.             Neither the undersigned, any member of the
family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be
entitled to receive, or accept, a finder’s fee or any other compensation in the
event the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned or any
affiliate of the undersigned originates a Business Combination.

 

7.             The undersigned will escrow his Insider
Shares for the three year period commencing on the Effective Date subject to
the terms of a Stock Escrow Agreement which the Company will enter into with an
escrow agent acceptable to the Company.

 

8.             The
undersigned agrees to be a Director until the earlier of the consummation by
the Company of a Business Combination or the Liquidation Date.  The undersigned’s biographical information furnished to the Company and the underwriter
and attached hereto as Exhibit A is true and accurate in all
respects, does not omit any material information with respect to the
undersigned’s background and contains all of the information required to be
disclosed pursuant to Section 401 of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the

questionnaires furnished to the Company and the Underwriter and

respects.  The undersigned represents and
warrants that:

 

(a)           the undersigned is not subject to or a
respondent in any legal action for any injunction, cease-and-desist order or
order or stipulation to desist or refrain from any act or practice relating to
the offering of securities in any jurisdiction;

 

(b)           the undersigned has never been convicted of
or pleaded guilty to any crime (i) involving any fraud or (ii) relating
to any financial transaction or handling of funds of another person, or (iii) pertaining
to any dealings in any securities and the undersigned is not currently a
defendant in any such criminal proceeding; and

 

(c)           the undersigned has never been suspended or
expelled from membership in any securities or commodities exchange or
association or had a securities or commodities license or registrations denied,
suspended or revoked.

 

The
undersigned understands that the Underwriter may conduct a background check
with respect to the undersigned, and hereby authorizes any employer, financial
institution or consumer credit reporting agency to release to the Underwriter
and its legal representatives or agents (including any investigative search
firm retained by the Underwriter) any information they may have about the
undersigned’s background and finances (“Information”).  Neither the Underwriter nor its agents shall
be violating the undersigned’s right of privacy in any manner in requesting and
obtaining the Information or in otherwise performing a background check, and
the undersigned hereby releases them from liability for any damage whatsoever
in that connection.

 

9.             The undersigned has full right and power,
without violating any agreement by which he is bound (including, without
limitation, any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any employer
or former employer), to enter into this letter agreement and to serve as a
Director.

 

10.           As used herein, (i) a “Business
Combination” shall mean the initial acquisition by merger, capital stock
exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase or other similar business
combination transaction of an operating business in the healthcare industry

the IPO.  Nothing contained herein shall
be deemed to render the Underwriter a representative of, or a fiduciary with
respect to, the Company, its stockholders, or any creditor or vendor of the
Company with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

This letter agreement shall
be binding on the undersigned and such person’s respective successors, heirs,
personal representatives and assigns. 
This letter agreement shall terminate on the

 

 

earlier
of (i) the Business Combination Date and (ii) the Liquidation Date;
provided that such termination shall not relieve the undersigned from liability
for any breach of this agreement prior to its termination.

 

This letter agreement shall
be governed by and interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York applicable to contracts formed and to be performed entirely
within the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions
thereof to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the

THIS AGREEMENT dated for reference the 31st day of
December, 1996

BETWEEN:

HUNTER DICKINSON INC., a company
incorporated under the federal laws of Canada having a registered office at
Suite 1500, 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 4N7

(herein “HDI”)

OF THE FIRST PART 

AND:

FARALLON RESOURCES
LTD., a British Columbia company having a business office at
Suite 1020, 800 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2V6

(herein “Farallon”)

OF THE SECOND PART

WHEREAS:

	(A) 	
      HDI is a company established to provide geological,
      corporate development, administrative and management services for public
      companies involved in the acquisition and exploration of natural resource
      properties;

	 	 
	(B) 	
      Farallon and HDI have agreed that HDI will provide the
      services more particularly described herein on the terms and conditions of
      this Agreement and that Farallon will assist HDI by requiring one of
      Farallon’ s directors to serve on the board of directors of
  HDI.

NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the premises and
mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

ARTICLE I 

ADMINISTRATION SERVICES 

	1.1 	
      During the term of this Agreement HDI shall provide
      Farallon and/or Farallon’s affiliates with the following administration
      services:

	 	 	 
		(a) 	
      use of HDI’s business premises located at Suite 1020, 800
      West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, on a non-exclusive basis
      with access to the reception area, the boardroom and other offices as
      available and agreed to from time to time;

	 	 	 
		(b) 	
      use of HDI’s reception and telephone answering
      personnel;

	 	 	 
		(c) 	
      reasonable use of office equipment including telephone
      systems, photocopying, telecopier and computers, and other equipment as
      required;

	 	 	 
		(d) 	
      administration service personnel including accounting,
      purchasing, secretarial and like support staff on an “as needed” and “as
      available” basis.

	 	 	 
	1.2 	
      The administration fee payable by Farallon to HDI for the
      administration services shall be invoiced by HDI on a monthly basis based
      on a fee which represents a full cost-recovery basis to HDI and which fee
      will be reasonably described in the invoice. The fee shall represent a
      reasonable pro- rationing of HDI’s costs amongst all its client companies
      with regard to the level of service requirements of each such company. The
      fee will be reviewed from time to time and the basis may be changed on
      notice by HDI in the event Farallon’s use of the administration services
      is in excess of historical experience or HDI’s costs change or in the
      event a greater or lesser number of other public companies are using HDI’s
      services.

ARTICLE 3 

ADDITIONAL RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF HDI

	3.1 	
      Farallon agrees to indemnify and hold harmless HDI (and
      any subsidiary), their officers, directors, employees and agents, from any
      and all claims, suits or demands arising out of the performance of HDI
      hereunder. Without restricting the generality of the foregoing Farallon
      agrees to promptly pay HDI invoices and to advance funds against written
      cash calls wherever reasonably required by HDI to pay for or secure
      services, to secure equipment, contractors, deposits and the like and to
      honour all agreements which HDI enters into in good faith as agent on
      behalf of Farallon with third parties. The foregoing indemnity shall not
      apply to losses, claims or suits arising out of HDI’s negligence or
      willful misconduct.

	 	 
	3.2 	
      HDI agrees to carry out its advisory, administrative and
      operating activities hereunder in a competent and workmanlike manner, in
      good faith with a view to the best interests of Farallon.

	 	 
	3.3 	 HDI shall take reasonable precautions to ensure that
        only authorized personnel of HDI and Farallon are provided with information
        respecting the business affairs, exploration results and properties of
        Farallon. HDI shall limit access to information respecting exploration
        developments to its own staff on a need-to-know basis and shall ensure
        that its personnel acknowledge the need to protect confidentiality of
        information respecting Farallon which is developed by or comes into the
        possession of HDI and that they are in a “special relationship”
        with Farallon as contemplated by securities legislation. HDI shall generally
        maintain confidentiality of Farallon’s affairs and shall take reasonable
        precautions to protect the integrity and security of information developed
        for Farallon. 

	3.4 	 HDI shall not compete with Farallon and will not endeavour
        to acquire any interest in any property of Farallon or related to or which
        can reasonably be said to be derived from any property of Farallon, without
        the prior written consent of Farallon which consent shall be in Farallon’s
        sole discretion.

	 	 
	3.5 	 HDI shall not be obligated whatsoever to provide any
        information or advice to Farallon respecting resource property prospects
        and opportunities which come to the attention of HDI personnel unless
        such prospects and opportunities can be clearly demonstrated to be presented
        primarily as a result of the provision of services by HDI to Farallon
        under the terms of this Agreement. Farallon acknowledges that HDI is entering
        into substantially identical agreements with other resource companies
        and as a consequence HDI will be exposed to resources property opportunities
        in the ordinary course and may receive resource property prospects and
        opportunities as a consequence of services to such other resource companies
        in the ordinary course. As well, Farallon acknowledges that HDI may receive
        unsolicited proposals and opportunities from sources wholly unrelated
        to Farallon or any of the other client companies of HDI and those opportunities
        are acknowledged by Farallon to be the sole property of HDI.

	 	 
	3.6 	 HDI may be retained by other client companies or terminate
        its relationship with any client company in its sole discretion and without
        notice to any client company.

ARTICLE 4 

OTHER RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF FARALLON

	4.1 	
      So long as this Agreement is in effect Farallon shall
      require one of Farallon’s directors to be a director of HDI who shall by
      virtue of such appointment have the right to review all aspects of HDI’ s
      operations. Farallon shall obtain an agreement from such nominee director
      that he shall not seek confidential information respecting any other
      client company of HDI (unless such director is also a director of such
      other client company) and shall in any event maintain appropriate
      confidentiality with respect to any HDI information provided to or
      obtained by such director and particularly with respect to any other
      client company or where such information about another client company or
      its exploration prospects is inadvertently acquired by the director. Such
      nominee shall further agree to promptly resign from the board of HDI in
      the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason. Such nominee shall
      not use any information acquired by virtue of his directorship in MDI for
      the purpose of competing with HDI or competing with any other client
      company of HDI, Such nominee shall be in a “special relationship” with any
      other client company of which he is not already an “insider”.

	 	 
	4.2 	
      Any authorized representative of Farallon shall at all
      reasonable times have full access to all of the records or information of
      HDI pertaining to the affairs of Farallon. Such access shall be extended
      to the auditors and other professional advisors of Farallon.

	 	 
	4.3 	
      HDI shall indemnify and save harmless Farallon from any
      claim, suit or demand which may arise by virtue of any improper act or
      gross negligence of HDI occurring as a result of the performance by HDI of
      this Agreement.

	 	 
	4.4 	
      On execution hereof Farallon shall subscribe for a single
      common share of MDI for $1.00 and shall resell such share to HDI for $1.00
      on termination of this Agreement. Farallon shall in no event sell,
      transfer or otherwise dispose of or encumber such share during the
      currency of this Agreement. The

parties acknowledge that HDI shall be
owned by its client companies and that each client company shall own one common
share of HDI and that HDI shall not allow any other person to subscribe or be
issued shares in HDI nor will HDI otherwise authorize, create or issue any other
shares or any other securities in its capital stock without the consent of all
of its client companies. 

ARTICLE 5 

TERMINATION

	5.1 	
      This Agreement may be terminated by either party hereto
      on 30 days written notice to the other party. From the date of notice to
      the date of termination, HDI shall not enter into any new arrangements on
      behalf of Farallon (unless already legally committed to do so) without
      Farallon’s prior consent

	 	 
	5.2 	
      In the event of termination during the course of
      implementation of any exploration or other program the parties shall
      negotiate in good faith to minimize any interruption of such program and
      to ensure that the costs related thereto are properly accounted for and
      duly discharged by Farallon. Notwithstanding any termination of this
      Agreement Farallon shall continue to be bound by any agreements contracted
      for on its behalf by HDI prior to termination.

	 	 
	5.3 	
      The confidentiality and non-competition provisions of
      this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement and
      continue in full force and effect for three years thereafter.

	 	 
	5.4 	
      Upon termination hereof Farallon shall cease to use the
      HDI premises, phone number, etc. and shall make arrangements for the
      orderly transition of administrative and accounting responsibilities by
      advice letter to HDI. HDI shall turn over all business, technical, and
      like records pertaining to the affairs and properties of Farallon as may
      be in the possession of HDI although HDI may retain copies for its own
      records where reasonably required.
