Manager shall have authority and responsibility to manage, conduct and administer the day-to-day administrative and non-professional operations of the Medical Group’s Practice and shall perform those functions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as permitting the Manager to engage in the practice of medicine, and Medical Group shall have sole and exclusive authority over the professional operations of the Licensed Premises. The duties of Manager shall include, but not be limited to:

(i) Supplies. Manager shall provide Medical Group with such office and medical supplies as are necessary for patient care and treatment and the operation of the Licensed Premises by Medical Group as reasonably determined by Medical Group in consultation with Manager.

(vi) Financial Reports. Manager shall prepare and submit to Medical Group periodic financial reports reflecting the financial status and operations of the Medical Group.

(d) Prohibited Activities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Manager and Medical Group expressly acknowledge and agree that Manager is not being engaged by Medical Group to, nor at any time shall Manager:

(i) engage in the practice of medicine (including but not limited to determining what diagnostic tests are appropriate for a particular condition, determining the need for referrals to or consultations with another physician/specialist (or the identity of the physician for such referral or consultation) determining patient treatment options, or determining what is included in a particular patient’s medical records);

Both Manager and Medical Group acknowledge and agree that by entering into this Agreement, Medical Group does not delegate to Manager any powers, duties or responsibilities which it is prohibited by law from delegating. Medical Group retains all authority not expressly delegated to Manager under this Agreement. Manager shall provide all services hereunder directly or, at Manager’s option, through one or more third parties engaged by

Manager. Medical Group acknowledges that certain of Manager’s services may be so delegated and may also be provided offsite.
