SERVICES becomes insolvent by reason of its inability to pay its debts as they
mature; is adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent; files a petition in bankruptcy,

SERVICES fails to comply with any material provision of this Agreement, or any
other agreement with the PC, and does not correct such failure within sixty
(60) days after written notice of such failure to comply is delivered by the PC
specifying the nature of the breach in reasonable detail.

 

(b)                                 Termination by
MANAGEMENT SERVICES. MANAGEMENT SERVICES may immediately terminate this
Agreement at its discretion, upon written notice as follows:

(c)                                  Termination by

(d)                                 Legislative,
Regulatory or Administrative Change. In the event there shall
be a change in the Medicare or Medicaid statutes, federal statutes, state
statutes, case laws, administrative interpretations, regulations or general
instructions, the adoption of new federal or state legislation, or a change in
any third-party reimbursement system, any of which are reasonably likely to
materially and adversely affect the manner in which either party may perform or
be compensated for its services under this Agreement or which shall make this
Agreement or any related agreements unlawful or unenforceable, or which would
be reasonably likely to subject either party to this Agreement, or any member,
shareholder, officer, director, employee, agent or affiliated organization to
any civil or criminal penalties or administrative sanctions, the parties shall
immediately use their best efforts to enter into a new service arrangement or
basis for compensation for the services furnished pursuant to this Agreement
that complies with the law, regulation, or policy, or which minimizes the
possibility of such penalties, sanctions or unenforceability, and that
approximates as closely as possible the economic position of the parties prior
to the change. If the parties are unable to reach a new agreement within a
reasonable time, then either party may submit the issue to arbitration pursuant
to Section 3.3 for

 

12

 

the purpose of reaching an
alternative arrangement that is equitable under the circumstances.

 

5.3                                 Effects of
Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, as provided in
this Article V, neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder
except for (i) obligations accruing prior to the date of termination,
including, without limitation, payment of the Service Fee relating to services
provided prior to the termination of this Agreement, (ii) obligations,
promises, or covenants set forth herein that are expressly made to extend
beyond the Term, including, without limitation, insurance, indemnities and
non-competition provisions, which provisions shall survive the expiration or
termination of this Agreement. In effectuating the provisions of this Section 5.3,
the PC specifically acknowledges and agrees that if this Agreement terminates
pursuant to Sections 5.2(b) or (d), MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall continue for
a period not to exceed ninety (90) days to collect and receive on behalf of the

cash collections may be used to compensate MANAGEMENT SERVICES for services
rendered prior to the termination of this Agreement, (b) MANAGEMENT
SERVICES shall not be entitled to collect accounts receivable after the
termination date of this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5.2(a),
and (c) the MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall deduct for such cash collections any
other amounts owed to MANAGEMENT SERVICES under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, any reasonable costs incurred by MANAGEMENT SERVICES in carrying
out the post-termination procedures and transactions contemplated herein.
MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall remit remaining amounts from such collection
activities, if any, to the PC. Upon the expiration or termination of this
Agreement for any reason or cause whatsoever, MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall
surrender to the PC all books and records pertaining to the PC’s Patient
medical records and PC Records (as defined in Section 7.2).

VI. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS

 

6.1.                              Covenant
Regarding Proprietary Information. In the course of the
relationship created pursuant to this Agreement, the PC will have access to
certain methods, trade secrets, processes, ideas, systems, procedures,
inventions, discoveries, concepts, software in various stages of development,
designs, drawings, specifications, models, data, documents, diagrams, flow
charts, research, economic and financial analysis, developments, procedures,
know-how, policy manuals, financial data, form contracts, marketing ad other
techniques, plans, materials, forms, copyrightable materials and trade
information regarding the operations of MANAGEMENT SERVICES and/or of its
Affiliates (collectively, the “Protected Parties”). The foregoing, together
with the existence and terms of this Agreement, are referred to in this
Agreement as “Proprietary Information”. The PC shall maintain all such
Proprietary Information in strict secrecy and shall not divulge such
information to any third parties, except as may be necessary for the discharge
of its obligations under this Agreement. The PC shall take all necessary and
proper precautions against disclosure of any Proprietary Information to
unauthorized persons by any of its officers, directors, employees or agents.
All officers, directors, employees and agents of the PC who will have access to
all or any part of the Proprietary Information may be required to execute an
agreement, at the reasonable request of MANAGEMENT SERVICES, valid under the
law of the jurisdiction in which such agreement is executed, and in a form
acceptable to MANAGEMENT SERVICES and its counsel, committing themselves to
maintain the Proprietary Information in strict confidence and not to disclose
it to any unauthorized person or entity. The Protected Parties not party to
this Agreement are hereby specifically made third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.1,
with the power to enforce the provisions hereof. Upon termination of this
Agreement for any reason, the PC and each of its Employed Providers and
Contracting Providers shall cease all use of any of the Proprietary Information
and, at the request of MANAGEMENT SERVICES, shall execute such documents as may
be necessary to evidence the PC’s abandonment of any claim thereto. The parties
recognize that a breach of this Section 6.1 cannot be adequately
compensated in money damages and therefore agree that injunctive relief shall
be available to the Protected Parties as their respective interests may appear.

 

The obligations of the PC
under this Section 6.1 shall not apply to information: (i) which is a
matter of public knowledge on or becomes a matter of public knowledge after the
Effective Date of this Agreement, other than as a breach of the confidentiality
terms of this Agreement or as a breach of the confidentiality terms of any
other agreement between the PC and MANAGEMENT SERVICES or its Affiliates; or (ii) was
lawfully obtained by the PC on a nonconfidential basis other than in the course
of performance under this Agreement and from some entity other than MANAGEMENT
SERVICES or its Affiliates or from some person other than one employed or
engaged by MANAGEMENT SERVICES or its Affiliates, which entity or person has no
obligation of confidentiality to MANAGEMENT SERVICES or its Affiliates.

 

6.2.                              Covenants Not
to Compete During the Term. The parties recognize that
the services to be provided by MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall be feasible only if
the PC operates an active medical practice to which the PC and Employed
Providers devote full time

 

14

 

and attention. To that end:

 

(a)                                  Restrictive
Covenants by the PC. During the term of this Agreement, the PC shall
not establish, operate or provide physician or other health care services at
any medical office, clinic or other health care facility providing services
substantially similar to those provided by the PC pursuant to this Agreement
anywhere other than at the Offices and as may be approved in writing by
MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The PC shall also not enter into any management or
administrative services agreement or arrangement with any person or entity
other than MANAGEMENT SERVICES without MANAGEMENT SERVICES’s prior written
approval.

 

(b)                                 Restrictive
Covenants by Employed Providers. All employment contracts
between the PC and its Employed Providers shall name MANAGEMENT SERVICES as a
third-party beneficiary to the contract and shall not be revised without the
prior written consent of MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The contracts shall include
noncompetition agreements with its Employed Providers who are physicians, the
substance and form of which is set forth as Exhibit A hereto, and
which the PC will enforce.

 

6.3.                              Covenant Not to
Compete Following Termination. For three (3) years
following the termination of this Agreement by MANAGEMENT SERVICES pursuant to Section 5.2,
the PC shall not enter into any management or administrative services agreement
or any similar arrangement with any person or entity for the provision of the
same or similar services as MANAGEMENT SERVICES provides to the PC under this
Agreement.

 

6.4.                              Covenant Not to
Solicit. During the term of this Agreement and for three (3) years
following the termination of this Agreement, the PC shall not:

 

(a)                                  Directly or
indirectly solicit, recruit or hire, or induce any party to solicit, recruit or
hire any person who is an employee of, or who has entered into an independent
contractor arrangement with, MANAGEMENT SERVICES or any Affiliate of MANAGEMENT
SERVICES (excluding any person who performs patient services);

 

(b)                                 Directly or
indirectly, whether for itself or for any other person or entity, call upon,
solicit, divert or take away, or attempt to solicit, call upon, divert or take
away any of MANAGEMENT SERVICES’s customers, business, or clients; or

 

(c)                                  Disrupt,
damage, impair or interfere with the business of MANAGEMENT SERVICES.

 

6.5.                              Enforcement. MANAGEMENT
SERVICES and the PC acknowledge and agree that since a remedy at law for any
breach or attempted breach of the provisions of this Article VI or of Article VII
shall be inadequate, either party shall be entitled to specific performance and
injunctive or other equitable relief in case of any such breach or attempted
breach, in addition to whatever other remedies may exist by law. All parties
hereto also waive

 

15

 

any requirement for the
securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such
injunctive or other equitable relief. If any provision of Article VI or Article VII
relating to the restrictive period, scope of activity restricted and/or other
provisions described therein shall be declared by a court of competent
jurisdiction to exceed the maximum time period, scope of activity restricted or
geographical area such court deems reasonable and enforceable under applicable
law, the time period, scope of activity restricted and/or area of restriction
held reasonable and enforceable by the court shall thereafter be the
restrictive period, scope of activity restricted and/or the territory
applicable to the restrictive covenant provisions in this Article VI or Article VII.
The invalidity or non-enforceability of this Article VI or Article VII
in any respect shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder
of this Article VI or Article VII or of any other provisions of this
Agreement.

 

VII. INFORMATION AND RECORDS

 

7.1.                              Ownership of
Records. At all times during and after the term of this Agreement, including
any extensions or renewals hereof, all business records, including but not
limited to, business agreements, books of account, general administrative
records and all information generated under or contained in the management
information system pertaining to MANAGEMENT SERVICES’s obligations hereunder,
and other business information of any kind or nature, except for Patient
medical records and the PC’s Records (as defined in Section 7.2), shall be
and remain the sole property of MANAGEMENT SERVICES; provided that after
termination of this Agreement the PC shall be entitled to reasonable access to
such records and information, including the right to obtain copies thereof, for
any purpose related to patient care or the defense of any claim relating to
patient care or the business of MANAGEMENT SERVICES or the PC.

 

7.2.                              The PC’s
Business and Financial Records. At all times during and
after the term of this Agreement, the financial, corporate and personnel
records and information relating exclusively to the business and activities of
the PC, as distinguished from the business and activity of MANAGEMENT SERVICES,
hereinafter referred to as “the PC’s Records,” shall be and remain the sole
property of the PC.

 

7.3.                              Access to
Records. Each party shall be entitled, upon request and with reasonable
advance notice, to obtain access to all records of the other party directly
related to the performance of such party’s obligations pursuant to this
Agreement; provided, however, that such right shall not allow for access to
records that must necessarily be kept confidential. Either party, at its
expense, shall have the right to make copies of any records to which it has
access pursuant to this Section.

 

7.4.                              Confidentiality
of Records. MANAGEMENT SERVICES and the PC shall adopt
procedures for maintaining the confidentiality of the records relating to the
operations of MANAGEMENT SERVICES and the PC which do not constitute
Proprietary Information, which information is not otherwise available to third
parties publicly or by law, and shall comply with all applicable federal and
state statutes and regulations relating to such records. Patient

 

16

 

medical records and other
privileged Patient information shall not be disclosed or utilized by the PC or
MANAGEMENT SERVICES or their agents or employees except as required or
permitted by applicable laws and regulations.

 

VIII. MISCELLANEOUS

 

8.1.                              Independent
Contractor Status of Parties. In the performance of the
work, duties and obligations under this Agreement, it is mutually understood
and agreed that each party is at all times acting and performing as an
independent contractor with respect to the other and that no relationship of
partnership joint venture or employment is created by this Agreement. Neither
party, nor any other person performing services on behalf of such party
pursuant to this Agreement, shall have any right or claim against the other
party for Social Security benefits, workers’ compensation benefits, disability
benefits, unemployment insurance benefits, health benefits, vacation pay, sick
leave or any other employee benefits of any kind.

 

8.2.                              No Waiver. The waiver by
any party to this Agreement of any breach of any term or condition of this
Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of subsequent breaches. No waiver by
any party of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a
waiver of any other provision.

 

8.3.                              Notices. If, at any
time after the execution of this Agreement, it shall become necessary or
convenient for one of the parties to serve any notice, demand or communication
upon the other party, such notice, demand, or communication shall be in writing
and shall be served personally, by nationally recognized overnight courier
which provides confirmation of delivery, or by depositing the same in the
United States mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage
prepaid and to such address as either party may have furnished to the other
party in writing as the place for the service of notice. Any notice so mailed
shall be deemed to have been given three (3) days after the same has been
deposited in the United States mall; when delivered if the same has been given
personally; or the next business day if the same has been delivered to a
nationally recognized overnight courier service.

 

8.4.                              Assignment. Neither party
may sell, transfer, assign, or otherwise convey its rights or obligations under
this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MANAGEMENT
SERVICES shall have the right to (a) assign its rights and/or delegate all
or any of its obligations to any of its Affiliates; and/or (b) subcontract
some portion of its obligations hereunder to a third party which is not an
Affiliate of MANAGEMENT SERVICES, in each case without the consent of the PC.

 

8.5.                              Successors and
Assigns. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement respecting assignment,
the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties
hereto.

 

8.6.                              Severability. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be construed to require

 

17

 

the commission of an act
contrary to law, and whenever there is any conflict between any provision of
this Agreement and any statute, law, ordinance or regulation, the latter shall
prevail. In such event, and in any case in which any provision of this
Agreement is determined to be in violation of a statute, law, ordinance or regulation,
the affected provision(s) shall be limited only to the extent necessary to
bring it within the requirements of the law and, insofar as possible under the
circumstances, to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. The other
provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and the
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not affect the
validity and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement, nor the
availability of all remedies in law or equity to the parties with respect to
such other provisions.

 

8.7.                              Third Parties. Except as
provided in Article VII, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to
create any duty to, any standard of care with reference to or any liability to
anyone not a party to this Agreement.

 

8.8.                              Headings. The headings
used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall have no
force or effect in the construction or interpretation of the provisions of this
Agreement.

 

8.9.                              Time of the
Essence. Time is of the very essence of each and all of the agreements,
covenants and conditions of this Agreement.

be construed, in all cases, according to its fair meaning, and not for or
against either party hereto. The parties acknowledge that each party and its counsel
have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.

 

8.12.                        Indemnification. The PC shall
indemnify, hold harmless and defend MANAGEMENT SERVICES, its officers,
directors, shareholders, employees, agents and independent contractors (the “MANAGEMENT
SERVICES Group”) from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages,
claims, causes of action, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees
and disbursements (a “MANAGEMENT SERVICES Loss”)), caused or asserted to have
been caused, directly or indirectly, by or as a result of the performance of
medical services or any other acts or omissions by MANAGEMENT SERVICES and/or
its partners, agents, employees and/or subcontractors (other than MANAGEMENT
SERVICES) during the term hereof except with respect to any MANAGEMENT SERVICES
Loss which is the result of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by a
member of the MANAGEMENT SERVICES Group. MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall indemnify,
hold harmless and defend the PC, its

 

18

or indirectly, by or as a result of the performance of any acts of omissions by
MANAGEMENT SERVICES and/or its shareholders, agents, employees and/or

which is the result of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by a member
of the PC Group.

Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes

failure to perform its obligations hereunder where such failure results from
any cause beyond that party’s reasonable control, including, for example, an

storm, accident, government regulation or interference, or mechanical,
electronic or communications failure.

Remedies. The respective rights of the parties to this
Agreement shall be cumulative. Each party shall have all other rights and
remedies consistent with this Agreement as law and equity may provide. No
exercise by any party of one right or remedy shall be deemed to be an exclusive
election of rights or remedies.

 

8.19.                        Survival. The
provisions of Articles III, IV, V, VI, VII and VIII shall survive any

NONCOMPETITION
AGREEMENT

 

NON-COMPETITIVE
AND RESTRICTIVE AGREEMENTS.

 

A.                                   During the term
of this Agreement and any renewal period, Physician shall not undertake any
professional service except as directed and authorized by [Employer] and shall
not engage in any profession other than the rendition of the professional
services as directed by [Employer].

 

B.                                     In the event of
the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Physician agrees not to
directly or indirectly engage in the practice of radiation therapy or oncology,
or otherwise compete with [Employer], or any of its physician providers, by
practicing as a radiation therapist or oncologist (i) at any hospital in
which physician providers of [Employer] regularly admit patients, or (ii) within
any county in which [Employer] or any of its Affiliates operate an Office for a
period of two (2) years after the date of such actual termination of this
Agreement. The purpose of this covenant is to protect [Employer] from the
irreparable harm it will suffer if Physician competes with [Employer] after
having been introduced to [Employer]’s personnel and patients and after
learning special medical procedures used by [Employer]’s physician providers,
[Employer]’s business procedures, office and practice policies, and the special
and confidential professional procedures developed by [Employer].

 

C.                                     The parties
agree that in the event of any breach or attempted breach of any of the
covenants set out in section B (the “Covenant Not to Compete”), [Employer] will
be entitled to equitable relief by way of injunction or otherwise, in addition
to any remedy at law which may be available. The parties agree that any
violation or threatened violation by Physician of the Covenant Not to Compete
will cause [Employer] to suffer irreparable harm. The parties agree that
[Employer]’s remedy of an injunction is not the exclusive remedy for breach of
the Covenant Not to Compete and that a court may grant such additional relief
as is reasonable.

 

D.                                    In the event
Physician breaches the Covenant Not to Compete, in addition to the injunctive
relief to which [Employer] shall be entitled under the law, Physician shall
immediately repay to [Employer] any amounts paid by [Employer] pursuant to
section 3.B hereof after the termination of this Agreement, and all severance
or termination pay, if any, paid pursuant to this Agreement. [Employer] may
offset against any amounts owed Physician pursuant to this Agreement any amounts
Physician owes [Employer] pursuant to paragraph E below for breach of the
Covenant Not to Compete.

 

E.                                      In addition to
the injunctive relief to which [Employer] is entitled under the law and in
addition to the payments provided for in paragraph D above and in order to
compensate [Employer] for the damages it will incur in recruiting and
compensating a

 

22

 

replacement radiation
oncologist and for the lost business it will suffer, in the event of a breach
by Physician of the Covenant Not to Compete, Physician shall also pay to
[Employer], as liquidated damages, a sum equal to a percentage of the gross
billings of [Employer] for the twelve month period immediately preceding the
termination of this Agreement. The percentage shall be that formed by dividing
the number one by the number equal to the total number of physician providers
of [E mployer], including Physician, on the date of termination of this
Agreement. The parties agree that, in the event of the breach by Physician of
the Covenant Not to Compete, the actual amount of damages which would be
incurred by [Employer] would be difficult to ascertain and prove, and that
therefore the liquidated damages sum set forth herein would be reasonable and
appropriate.

 

F.                                      In the event
the Covenant Not to Compete shall be determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its geographic or temporal
restrictions being too great, or by reason that the range of activities covered
is too great, or for any other reason, section B shall be interpreted to extend
over the maximum geographic area, period of time, range of activities or other
restrictions as to which it may be enforceable.

D.                                                 The PC desires

by MANAGEMENT SERVICES, on an exclusive basis, of administrative services to
the PC with respect to the Practice, and for the provision of space,

and continuous basis to the rendering of medical services to its Patients.

 

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

connection with its delivery of health care services to Patients. Such fees,

consistent with the fees, charges, premiums and other amounts due to health
care providers for similar services within the community under the type of reimbursement
program involved. MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall provide input relating to the
foregoing but shall not conclude the level of fees, charges, premiums, or other
amounts the PC should establish.

contingent upon the admission, referral or any other arrangements for the
provision of any item or service offered by MANAGEMENT SERVICES or any
Affiliate, as defined in Section 8.21 of this Agreement, of MANAGEMENT
SERVICES to any of the PC’s Patients in any facility or laboratory controlled,
managed or operated by MANAGEMENT SERVICES or any Affiliate of MANAGEMENT

who are unrelated to the PC or MANAGEMENT SERVICES, or to any Affiliate of the
PC or MANAGEMENT SERVICES, which has expertise in such areas, and which has
been approved in advance by the PC. Such review shall include a random sampling
of medical records (consistent with laws regarding the confidentiality of

3.2.                              Security
Agreement; the PC Expenses. To secure the PC’s payment
obligations hereunder, the PC is concurrently herewith entering into a security
agreement, in form acceptable to MANAGEMENT SERVICES, to grant to MANAGEMENT
SERVICES a security interest in the accounts receivable of the PC and all of
the PC’s rights to receive payments under managed care contracts. The PC shall
cooperate with MANAGEMENT SERVICES and execute all reasonably necessary
documents in connection with the granting of such security interest.

 

All
payments on behalf of the PC from Patients and Payors shall be deposited into
one or more Collection Accounts. To the extent the PC receives any such
payments, the PC shall direct such payments to MANAGEMENT SERVICES for deposit
in one or more Collection Accounts.

 

3.3.                              Arbitration. Any
controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby, including any controversy or claim arising
out of or relating to the parties’ decision to enter into this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby, shall be settled by binding arbitration. Each
party shall select an arbitrator who has at least three (3) years
experience in health care or medical practice management or in health care or
medical practice dispute resolution. The arbitration proceedings shall be
confidential and the arbitrators may issue appropriate protective orders to
safeguard each party’s confidential information. Such protective orders shall
be enforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction. Except as specifically
provided in this section, the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with
the rules of conciliation and arbitration of the American Arbitration
Association. The two arbitrators shall agree upon any issue no later than
thirty (30) days after the date the second arbitrator has been engaged, and
shall take into account the principles and objectives set forth in paragraph (b) below.
If the two arbitrators cannot agree on a determination, then within five (5) days
thereafter the two arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator, who shall have
the same qualifications required for the first two arbitrators. No later than
thirty (30) days after the date the third arbitrator is engaged, he or she
shall determine which of the two positions best satisfies the provisions of the
contract and the intent of the parties, taking into account the principles and
objectives set forth in paragraph (b) below. The third arbitrator shall
have no right to propose a middle ground between the two or to make any
modification of the proposals of either party. The third arbitrator’s
determination shall be final and binding on all parties. The cost and expense
of the third arbitrator shall be shared equally between the parties. If either
party fails to engage an arbitrator as required hereunder, the arbitrator
selected by the other party shall conduct the arbitration and make the final
decision in accordance with this Section 3.4.

 

(b)                                 The arbitration
shall be conducted at the offices of MANAGEMENT SERVICES or such other mutually
acceptable site. In conducting the arbitration, the arbitrator(s) shall
consider the following principles and objectives of the parties in entering
into this Agreement:

 

(i)                                     The parties
contemplate that the PC shall pay MANAGEMENT SERVICES a flat fee for the fair
market value of MANAGEMENT SERVICES’ hereunder.

 

9

 

(ii)                                  The parties
agree that MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall in no way provide medical services to
Patients.

 

(iii)                               The parties
contemplate an expansion of the Practice by acquisition or purchase of other
Offices and by expansion of the variety of specialty medical services provided
and/or ancillary services provided.

period of twenty-five (25) years after the Effective Date, and shall be
automatically renewed for successive five (5) year periods thereafter
(collectively, the “Term”), provided that neither MANAGEMENT SERVICES nor the

hundred twenty (120) days before the end of the initial term or any renewal

the PC. The PC may immediately terminate this Agreement at its discretion,
upon written notice as follows:

 

(i)                                     If MANAGEMENT
SERVICES becomes insolvent by reason of its inability to pay its debts as they
mature; is adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent; files a petition in bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding under the bankruptcy laws of the United
States or shall have such a petition filed against it which is not discharged
within thirty (30) days; has a receiver or other custodian, permanent or
temporary, appointed for its business, assets or property; makes a general
assignment for the benefit of creditors; has its bank accounts, property or
accounts attached; has execution levied against its business or property; or

dissolution and such petition is not dismissed within thirty (30) days;

 

(ii)                                  If the MANAGEMENT
SERVICES fails to comply with any material provision of this Agreement, or any
other agreement with the PC, and does not

 

11

 

correct
such failure within sixty (60) days after written notice of such failure to
comply is delivered by the PC specifying the nature of the breach in reasonable
detail.

 

(b)                                 Termination by
MANAGEMENT SERVICES. MANAGEMENT SERVICES may immediately terminate this
Agreement at its discretion, upon written notice as follows:

 

(i)                                     If the PC
becomes insolvent by reason of its inability to pay its debts as they mature;

(c)                                  Termination by

specified in such written agreement.

 

(d)                                 Legislative,
Regulatory or Administrative Change. In the event there shall
be a change in the Medicare or Medicaid statutes, federal statutes, state
statutes, case laws, administrative interpretations, regulations or general
instructions, the adoption of new federal or state legislation, or a change in
any third-party reimbursement system, any of which are reasonably likely to
materially and adversely affect the manner in which either party may perform or
be compensated for its services under this Agreement or which shall make this
Agreement or any related agreements unlawful or unenforceable, or which would
be reasonably likely to subject either party to this Agreement, or any member,
shareholder, officer, director, employee, agent or affiliated organization to
any civil or criminal penalties or administrative sanctions, the parties shall
immediately use their best efforts to enter into a new service arrangement or
basis for compensation for the services furnished pursuant to this Agreement
that complies with the law, regulation, or policy, or which minimizes the
possibility of such penalties, sanctions or unenforceability, and that
approximates as closely as possible the economic position of the parties prior
to the change. If the parties are unable to reach a new agreement within a
reasonable time, then either party may submit the issue to arbitration pursuant
to Section 3.3 for the purpose of reaching an alternative arrangement that
is equitable under the circumstances.

 

5.3                                 Effects of
Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, as provided in
this Article V, neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder

 

12

 

except
for (i) obligations accruing prior to the date of termination, including,
without limitation, payment of the Service Fee relating to services provided
prior to the termination of this Agreement, (ii) obligations, promises, or
covenants set forth herein that are expressly made to extend beyond the Term,
including, without limitation, insurance, indemnities and non-competition
provisions, which provisions shall survive the expiration or termination of
this Agreement. In effectuating the provisions of this Section 5.3, the PC
specifically acknowledges and agrees that if this Agreement terminates pursuant
to Sections 5.2(b) or (d), MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall continue for a period
not to exceed ninety (90) days to collect and receive on behalf of the PC on an
exclusive basis all cash collections from accounts receivable in existence at
the time this Agreement is terminated, it being understood that (a) such
cash collections may be used to compensate MANAGEMENT SERVICES for services
rendered prior to the termination of this Agreement, (b) MANAGEMENT
SERVICES shall not be entitled to collect accounts receivable after the
termination date of this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5.2(a),
and (c) the MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall deduct for such cash collections any
other amounts owed to MANAGEMENT SERVICES under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, any reasonable costs incurred by MANAGEMENT SERVICES in
carrying out the post-termination procedures and transactions contemplated
herein. MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall remit remaining amounts from such collection
activities, if any, to the PC. Upon the expiration or termination of this
Agreement for any reason or cause whatsoever, MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall
surrender to the PC all books and records pertaining to the PC’s Patient
medical records and PC Records (as defined in Section 7.2).

 

VI. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS

 

6.1.                              Covenant
Regarding Proprietary Information. In the course of the
relationship created pursuant to this Agreement, the PC will have access to
certain methods, trade secrets, processes, ideas, systems, procedures,
inventions, discoveries, concepts, software in various stages of development,
designs, drawings, specifications, models, data, documents, diagrams, flow
charts, research, economic and financial analysis, developments, procedures,
know-how, policy manuals, financial data, form contracts, marketing ad other
techniques, plans, materials, forms, copyrightable materials and trade
information regarding the operations of MANAGEMENT SERVICES and/or of its
Affiliates (collectively, the “Protected Parties”). The foregoing, together
with the existence and terms of this Agreement, are referred to in this
Agreement as “Proprietary Information”. The PC shall maintain all such
Proprietary Information in strict secrecy and shall not divulge such
information to any third parties, except as may be necessary for the discharge
of its obligations under this Agreement. The PC shall take all necessary and
proper precautions against disclosure of any Proprietary Information to
unauthorized persons by any of its officers, directors, employees or agents.
All officers, directors, employees and agents of the PC who will have access to
all or any part of the Proprietary Information may be required to execute an
agreement, at the reasonable request of MANAGEMENT SERVICES, valid under the
law of the jurisdiction in which such agreement is executed, and in a form
acceptable to MANAGEMENT SERVICES and its counsel, committing themselves to
maintain the Proprietary Information in strict confidence and not to disclose
it to any unauthorized person or entity. The Protected Parties not party to
this Agreement are hereby specifically made third party beneficiaries

 

13

 

of
this Section 6.1, with the power to enforce the provisions hereof. Upon
termination of this Agreement for any reason, the PC and each of its Employed
Providers and Contracting Providers shall cease all use of any of the
Proprietary Information and, at the request of MANAGEMENT SERVICES, shall
execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the PC’s abandonment of
any claim thereto. The parties recognize that a breach of this Section 6.1
cannot be adequately compensated in money damages and therefore agree that
injunctive relief shall be available to the Protected Parties as their
respective interests may appear.

 

The
obligations of the PC under this Section 6.1 shall not apply to
information: (i) which is a matter of public knowledge on or becomes a
matter of public knowledge after the Effective Date of this Agreement, other
than as a breach of the confidentiality terms of this Agreement or as a breach
of the confidentiality terms of any other agreement between the PC and
MANAGEMENT SERVICES or its Affiliates; or (ii) was lawfully obtained by
the PC on a nonconfidential basis other than in the course of performance under
this Agreement and from some entity other than MANAGEMENT SERVICES or its
Affiliates or from some person other than one employed or engaged by MANAGEMENT
SERVICES or its Affiliates, which entity or person has no obligation of
confidentiality to MANAGEMENT SERVICES or its Affiliates.

 

6.2.                              Covenants Not
to Compete During the Term. The parties recognize that
the services to be provided by MANAGEMENT SERVICES shall be feasible only if
the PC operates an active medical practice to which the PC and Employed
Providers devote full time and attention. To that end:

 

(a)                                  Restrictive
Covenants by the PC. During the term of this Agreement, the PC shall
not establish, operate or provide physician or other health care services at
any medical office, clinic or other health care facility providing services
substantially similar to those provided by the PC pursuant to this Agreement
anywhere other than at the Offices and as may be approved in writing by
MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The PC shall also not enter into any management or
administrative services agreement or arrangement with any person or entity
other than MANAGEMENT SERVICES without MANAGEMENT SERVICES’ prior written
approval.

 

(b)                                 Restrictive
Covenants by Employed Providers. All employment contracts
between the PC and its Employed Providers shall name MANAGEMENT SERVICES as a
third-party beneficiary to the contract and shall not be revised without the
prior written consent of MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The contracts shall include
noncompetition agreements with its Employed Providers who are physicians, the
substance and form of which is set forth as Exhibit A hereto, and
which the PC will enforce.

 

6.3.                              Covenant Not to
Compete Following Termination. For three (3) years
following the termination of this Agreement by MANAGEMENT SERVICES pursuant to Section 5.2,
the PC shall not enter into any management or administrative services agreement
or any similar arrangement with any person or entity for the provision of the
same or similar services as MANAGEMENT SERVICES provides to the PC under this
Agreement.

 

14

 

6.4.                              Covenant Not to
Solicit. During the term of this Agreement and for three (3) years
following the termination of this Agreement, the PC shall not:

 

(a)                                  Directly or
indirectly solicit, recruit or hire, or induce any party to solicit, recruit or
hire any person who is an employee of, or who has entered into an independent
contractor arrangement with, MANAGEMENT SERVICES or any Affiliate of MANAGEMENT
SERVICES (excluding any person who performs patient services);

 

(b)                                 Directly or
indirectly, whether for itself or for any other person or entity, call upon,
solicit, divert or take away, or attempt to solicit, call upon, divert or take
away any of MANAGEMENT SERVICES’ customers, business, or clients; or

 

(c)                                  Disrupt,
damage, impair or interfere with the business of MANAGEMENT SERVICES.

 

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

 

VII. INFORMATION AND RECORDS

 

7.1.                              Ownership of
Records. At all times during and after the term of this Agreement, including
any extensions or renewals hereof, all business records, including but not
limited to, business agreements, books of account, general administrative
records and all information generated under or contained in the management
information system pertaining to MANAGEMENT SERVICES’ obligations hereunder,
and other business information of any kind or nature, except for Patient
medical records and the PC’s Records (as defined in Section 7.2), shall be
and remain the sole property of MANAGEMENT SERVICES; provided that after
termination of this Agreement the PC shall be entitled to reasonable access to
such records and information, including the right to obtain copies thereof, for
any purpose related to patient care or the defense of any claim relating to
patient care or the business of MANAGEMENT SERVICES or the PC.

 

15

 

7.2.                              The PC’s
Business and Financial Records. At all times during and
after the term of this Agreement, the financial, corporate and personnel
records and information relating exclusively to the business and activities of
the PC, as distinguished from the business and activity of MANAGEMENT SERVICES,
hereinafter referred to as “the PC’s Records,” shall be and remain the sole
property of the PC.

 

7.3.                              Access to
Records. Each party shall be entitled, upon request and with reasonable
advance notice, to obtain access to all records of the other party directly
related to the performance of such party’s obligations pursuant to this
Agreement; provided, however, that such right shall not allow for access to
records that must necessarily be kept confidential. Either party, at its
expense, shall have the right to make copies of any records to which it has
access pursuant to this Section.

 

7.4.                              Confidentiality
of Records. MANAGEMENT SERVICES and the PC shall adopt
procedures for maintaining the confidentiality of the records relating to the
operations of MANAGEMENT SERVICES and the PC which do not constitute
Proprietary Information, which information is not otherwise available to third
parties publicly or by law, and shall comply with all applicable federal and
state statutes and regulations relating to such records. Patient medical
records and other privileged Patient information shall not be disclosed or
utilized by the PC or MANAGEMENT SERVICES or their agents or employees except
as required or permitted by applicable laws and regulations.

 

VIII. MISCELLANEOUS

 

8.1.                              Independent
Contractor Status of Parties. In the performance of the
work, duties and obligations under this Agreement, it is mutually understood
and agreed that each party is at all times acting and performing as an
independent contractor with respect to the other and that no relationship of
partnership joint venture or employment is created by this Agreement. Neither
party, nor any other person performing services on behalf of such party pursuant
to this Agreement, shall have any right or claim against the other party for
Social Security benefits, workers’ compensation benefits, disability benefits,
unemployment insurance benefits, health benefits, vacation pay, sick leave or
any other employee benefits of any kind.

 

8.2.                              No Waiver. The waiver by
any party to this Agreement of any breach of any term or condition of this
Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of subsequent breaches. No waiver by
any party of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a
waiver of any other provision.

 

8.3.                              Notices. If, at any
time after the execution of this Agreement, it shall become necessary or
convenient for one of the parties to serve any notice, demand or communication
upon the other party, such notice, demand, or communication shall be in writing
and shall be served personally, by nationally recognized overnight courier
which provides confirmation of delivery, or by depositing the same in the
United States mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage
prepaid and to such address as either party may have furnished to the other
party in writing as the place for the service of notice. Any notice so mailed
shall be deemed to have been given three (3) days after

 

16

 

the
same has been deposited in the United States mail; when delivered if the same
has been given personally; or the next business day if the same has been
delivered to a nationally recognized overnight courier service.

 

8.4.                              Assignment. Neither party
may sell, transfer, assign, or otherwise convey its rights or obligations under
this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MANAGEMENT
SERVICES shall have the right to (a) assign its rights and/or delegate all
or any of its obligations to any of its Affiliates; and/or (b) subcontract
some portion of its obligations hereunder to a third party which is not an
Affiliate of MANAGEMENT SERVICES, in each case without the consent of the PC.

 

8.5.                              Successors and
Assigns. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement respecting assignment,
the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties
hereto.

 

8.6.                              Severability. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be construed to require the commission of an
act contrary to law, and whenever there is any conflict between any provision
of this Agreement and any statute, law, ordinance or regulation, the latter
shall prevail. In such event, and in any case in which any provision of this
Agreement is determined to be in violation of a statute, law, ordinance or
regulation, the affected provision(s) shall be limited only to the extent
necessary to bring it within the requirements of the law and, insofar as
possible under the circumstances, to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.
The other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect,
and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not affect
the validity and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement, nor
the availability of all remedies in law or equity to the parties with respect
to such other provisions.

 

8.7.                              Third Parties. Except as
provided in Article VII, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to
create any duty to, any standard of care with reference to or any liability to
anyone not a party to this Agreement.

 

8.8.                              Headings. The headings
used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall have no
force or effect in the construction or interpretation of the provisions of this
Agreement.

 

8.9.                              Time of the
Essence. Time is of the very essence of each and all of the agreements,
covenants and conditions of this Agreement.

 

8.10.                        Governing Law. This
Agreement shall be deemed made, executed and entered into and shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida.

 

8.11.                        Language
Construction. The language in all parts of this Agreement shall
be construed, in all cases, according to its fair meaning, and not for or
against either

 

17

 

party
hereto. The parties acknowledge that each party and its counsel have reviewed
and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the
effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall
not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.

 

8.12.                        Indemnification. The PC shall
indemnify, hold harmless and defend MANAGEMENT SERVICES, its officers,

EXHIBIT A

 

NONCOMPETITION AGREEMENT

 

NON-COMPETITIVE AND RESTRICTIVE AGREEMENTS.

 

A.                                   During the term
of this Agreement and any renewal period, Physician shall not undertake any
professional service except as directed and authorized by [Employer] and shall
not engage in any profession other than the rendition of the professional
services as directed by [Employer].

 

B.                                     In the event of
the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Physician agrees not to
directly or indirectly engage in the practice of radiation therapy or oncology,
or otherwise compete with [Employer], or any of its physician providers, by
practicing as a radiation therapist or oncologist (i) at any hospital in
which physician providers of [Employer] regularly admit patients, or (ii) within
any county in which [Employer] or any of its Affiliates operate an Office, for
a period of two (2) years after the date of such actual termination of this
Agreement. The purpose of this covenant is to protect [Employer] from the
irreparable harm it will suffer if Physician competes with [Employer] after
having been introduced to [Employer]’s personnel and patients and after
learning special medical procedures used by [Employer]’s physician providers,
[Employer]’s business procedures, office and practice policies, and the special
and confidential professional procedures developed by [Employer].

 

C.                                     The parties
agree that in the event of any breach or attempted breach of any of the
covenants set out in section B (the “Covenant Not to Compete”), [Employer] will
be entitled to equitable relief by way of injunction or otherwise, in addition
to any remedy at law which may be available. The parties agree that any
violation or threatened violation by Physician of the Covenant Not to Compete
will cause [Employer] to suffer irreparable harm. The parties agree that
[Employer]’s remedy of an injunction is not the exclusive remedy for breach of
the Covenant Not to Compete and that a court may grant such additional relief
as is reasonable.

 

D.                                    In the event
Physician breaches the Covenant Not to Compete, in addition to the injunctive
relief to which [Employer] shall be entitled under the law, Physician shall
immediately repay to [Employer] any amounts paid by [Employer] pursuant to
section 3.B hereof after the termination of this Agreement, and all severance
or termination pay, if any, paid pursuant to this Agreement. [Employer] may
offset against any amounts owed Physician pursuant to this Agreement any
amounts Physician owes [Employer] pursuant to paragraph E below for breach of
the Covenant Not to Compete.

 

E.                                      In addition to
the injunctive relief to which [Employer] is entitled under the law and in
addition to the payments provided for in paragraph D above and in order to
compensate [Employer] for the damages it will incur in recruiting and
compensating a replacement radiation oncologist and for the lost business it
will suffer, in the event of a breach by Physician of the Covenant Not to
Compete, Physician

 

21

 

shall
also pay to [Employer], as liquidated damages, a sum equal to a percentage of
the gross billings of [Employer] for the twelve month period immediately
preceding the termination of this Agreement. The percentage shall be that
formed by dividing the number one by the number equal to the total number of
physician providers of [Employer], including Physician, on the date of
termination of this Agreement. The parties agree that, in the event of the
breach by Physician of the Covenant Not to Compete, the actual amount of
damages which would be incurred by [Employer] would be difficult to ascertain
and prove, and that therefore the liquidated damages sum set forth herein would
be reasonable and appropriate.

 

F.                                      In the event
the Covenant Not to Compete shall be determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its geographic or temporal
restrictions being too great, or by reason that the range of activities covered
is too great, or for any other reason, section B shall be interpreted to extend
over the maximum geographic area, period of time, range of activities or other
restrictions as to which it may be enforceable.
