Nothing in this Section shall be interpreted to limit the authority of VRC specifically set forth in Sections 2.1 and 3.1 and elsewhere throughout this Agreement. The parties agree and acknowledge that, notwithstanding the retention of authority discussed herein, unanimous approval of the Practice’s common stockholders is required by the Practice’s Certificate of Incorporation for the Practice to take certain corporate actions.

Section 4.5 Compliance with Laws.

The Practice and VRC agree and acknowledge that each Radiologist has entered into an Independent Physician Agreement with VRP, and that such Independent Physician Agreement contains a restrictive covenant in which each Radiologist has agreed during the term of his/her contractor agreement with VRP

and for a period of two years thereafter, not to establish, operate, or provide professional interstate teleradiology services at any office, practice, hospital, or other health care facility. For purposes thereof, “professional interstate teleradiology services” means the electronic transmission of radiographs originating in one state for review by a radiologist located in another state or country; provided, however, the restrictive covenant required hereby shall not extend to employment by a radiology practice of which [INFORMATION SUBJECT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] percent ( %) or less of its radiologic interpretation business involves interstate transportation of images or reports.

(b) Practice’s Covenant. During the term of this Agreement with VRC and for a period of two years thereafter, the Practice shall not directly, or indirectly, through an affiliate or otherwise, without the prior written consent of VRC, which consent may be withheld by VRC in its sole discretion, compete with VRC, in any manner or capacity (e.g., through any form of ownership or as an advisor, principal, agent, partner, officer, director, employee, employer, consultant, member of any association, lender or otherwise) in the provision of professional interstate teleradiology services within each of the states that VRC is allowed by the laws of such state to directly contract with customers for the provision of such services. Practice acknowledges that the geographic boundaries, scope of prohibited activities and the duration of this Section 4.7(b) are reasonable and are no broader than are necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of VRC. The parties agree and stipulate that the agreements and covenants not to compete contained in this Section 4.7(b) are fair and reasonable in light of all of the facts and circumstances of the relationship between VRC and the Practice. VRC and the Practice are aware, however, that in certain circumstances courts have refused to enforce certain agreements not to compete. Therefore, in furtherance of, and not in derogation of, the provisions of this Section 4.7(b), VRC and the Practice agree that, in the event a court should decline to enforce any of the provisions of this Section 4.7(b), this Section 4.7(b) shall be deemed to be modified or reformed to restrict the Practice’s competition with VRC to the maximum extent, as to time, geography and business scope, which the court shall find enforceable; provided, however, that in no event shall the provisions of this Section 4.7(b) be deemed to be more restrictive to the Practice than those contained herein.

Section 4.8 Inventions. The Practice shall disclose, and shall ensure that any Radiologist performing services for the Practice shall disclose, promptly and fully to VRC in writing all improvements, developments, useful modifications, discoveries, or inventions, conceived or reduced to practice, either alone or with others, relating to VRC’s teleradiology systems or infrastructure (“Inventions”). All Inventions are the exclusive property of VRC, and all right, title, and interest of the Practice in and to such Inventions are automatically assigned to, and shall belong exclusively to, VRC. The Practice shall, and ensure that all Radiologists performing services for the Practice: (i) execute any and all instruments of assignment or other documents necessary or reasonably requested by VRC to evidence the above ownership of VRC; and (ii) assist in the preparation, prosecution, and procurement of patents, copyrights, or other forms of protection in connection therewith, all at VRC’s request and expense.

The Grantor and the Secured Party agree that they intend the security interest hereby granted to attach upon the execution of this Agreement.

Section 3. Grantor Remains Liable. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding:

(i) the Grantor shall remain fully liable under any contracts and agreements included in the Collateral to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder; (ii) the exercise by the Secured Party of any of the rights hereunder shall not release the Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under any such Collateral; and (iii) the Secured Party is not obligated or liable under any such Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor is the Secured Party obligated to perform any obligations or duties of the Grantor thereunder or to take any action hereunder.

Section 4. Further Assurances. The Grantor agrees that from time to time, at Secured Party’s expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents to the Secured Party or its designated bailee, and take all further action, that may be necessary or appropriate, in the Secured Party’s commercially reasonable judgment, or that the Secured Party may request, in the Secured Party’s commercially reasonable judgment, in order to create, evidence, perfect or preserve any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral, including, without limitation, executing and filing financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, as the Secured Party may request, without the signature of the Grantor where permitted by law.

Section 5. Representations and Warranties: General. The Grantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that all the representations and warranties made by the Grantor in the Service Agreement and any related document to which it is a party are incorporated herein and made a part hereof as if fully set forth herein and shall be deemed to have been made by the Grantor to the Secured Party hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantor hereby represents and warrants that: (i) the Grantor has good and marketable title to the Collateral and it owns the Collateral free and clear of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance, except for the security interests in favor of the Secured Party created by this Agreement: (ii) this Agreement, together with actions heretofore taken, creates a valid and perfected first priority Lien in the Collateral, securing the payment of the Obligations, and all filings and other actions necessary to create, evidence, perfect and preserve such security interest (save for the timely filing of continuation statements or other statements required by applicable law) have been duly taken: and (iii) the correct corporate name of the Grantor is Virtual Radiologic Professionals of New York, P.A., and the Grantor has no other corporate name or fictitious name and has not, during the immediately preceding five (5) years, been known under or used any other corporate, trade or fictitious name.

If, in violation of this Agreement, in the Secured Party’s sole opinion exercised in a commercially reasonable manner, any lien or other encumbrance (other than liens in favor of the Secured Party created by this Agreement) may create an obligation having priority over the lien granted hereby, the Secured Party may make written demand to the Grantor to pay such lien or other encumbrance and if such lien or other encumbrance shall remain unpaid five days after any such demand by the Secured Party, the Secured Party may pay such lien

or other encumbrance and the amount of such payment shall be charged to the Grantor, be repaid within five business days of notice given by the Secured Party, and be secured by the lien granted hereby.
