state, local, and other governmental approvals as may be required (i)

reimbursements, and (iii) to obtain such approvals as may be necessary
in order that the MR services provided shall be reimbursable by third-

copies or summaries of such records. All information obtained shall
be kept confidential to the extent that it may involve records or
reports of any patient treatment; and
(d) to provide to each other certificates of all
insurance carried by them pertaining to the operations contemplated
herein.
7. Scheduling.
(a) Subject to the provisions of paragraph 7(b), the
Partnership shall provide service to the Hospital on the days set
forth in the service schedule attached hereto as Exhibit "A". Service
shall commence on the first scheduled day of service on or after the
Commencement Date.
(b) During each full day of service, the Mobile Unit
shall be available for the performance of scans from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m. The first patient during each day of service shall be scheduled
before 9:00 a.m. and patients shall be scheduled on a consecutive
basis thereafter. The Mobile Unit and the technician may be removed
from the Hospital at any time after the scan on the last scheduled
patient has been completed, even if it is before 6:00 p.m. The
Partnership shall not be obligated to commence any scans after 5:00
p.m. However, if all scheduled patients cannot be completed before
6:00 p.m., the Partnership may, in its discretion, make the Mobile
Unit available for scans after 6:00 p.m. In the event that any
scheduled day of service falls on any one of the following holidays,
the Hospital shall have the option of electing not to receive service
on that day: New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. In the event that
the Hospital elects not to receive service during any such holiday,
upon request of the Hospital, the Partnership will use its best
efforts to reschedule the Mobile Unit during the next available
unscheduled day, which may be a weekend or a holiday.
(c) The Hospital understands that the Imager is a complex
mechanical and electronic device, that there may be times that it will
break down and that it will break down and that it is impossible to
predict when that will occur. The Imager must also undergo periodic
maintenance. Anything to the contrary set forth herein
notwithstanding, in no event shall the Partnership be liable to the
Hospital as a result of the unavailability of the Mobile Unit for any
reason.
8. Charges for MR Service.
(a) The following definitions apply for purposes of this
paragraph 8:
(i) "Standard Charge" means $350
per MR scan completed utilizing the Mobile Unit while located at the
Hospital.
(ii) "Minimum Monthly Charge"
means the number of days during the month the Mobile Unit is scheduled
and available for service multiplied by seven (7) scans per day, and
further multiplied by the Standard Charge.
(iii) "Incomplete Scan Charge"
means $100 per MR scan that cannot be completed due to reasons such as
claustrophobia, etc., or whenever a radiologist requests the patient
return on a separate day from the day the original scan was performed
to scan additional sequences on the same anatomical area.
(iv) "Letter of Protection (LOP)
Patient" means a patient where legal counsel, pursuant to a lawsuit,
has issued a written request for immunity from payment of charges
until settlement of the lawsuit.
(b) The Partnership will provide the Hospital with an
invoice at the end of each month for the greater of: (i) the Standard
Charge for each MR patient scan completed plus any Incomplete Scan and
LOP charges; or, (ii) the Monthly Minimum Charge plus any Incomplete
Scan charges and LOP charges. Invoices shall be paid within thirty
(30) days.
(c) The Partnership shall mail a statement of account to
the Hospital as of the first day of each month. If any invoices are
past due as of the statement date, the Hospital shall pay late charges
in an amount equal to 1-1/2% per month of the amount of each past due
invoice. In addition to any and all remedies available to the
Partnership for defaults hereunder by the Hospital, in the event that
there are any invoices to the Hospital from the Partnership that are
15 days or more past due the Partnership may require the Hospital to
pay in cash not less than five days prior to a scheduled day of
service for each scan scheduled for that day.
(d) The Hospital's obligation to pay the charges set
forth herein to the Partnership is absolute and unconditional at the
time that MR scans are performed utilizing the Mobile Unit while
located at the Hospital. The obligation of the Hospital to pay the
charges set forth herein to the Partnership is distinct and
independent from the payment to the Hospital by or on account of the
patients scheduled by the Hospital for MR scans. The collection and
discharge of such patient accounts are the sole responsibility of the
Hospital and not of the Partnership.
(e) The Partnership shall be responsible for the billing
and collection for all services rendered to Letter of Protection
Patients. The Partnership shall issue a credit to the Hospital to
cover the cost of supplies used in the amount of $40 per Letter of
Protection Patient with an additional credit of $100 for each patient
utilizing contrast material. The credit will be issued monthly.
9. Indemnification.
(a) The Hospital shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Partnership, its partners (exclusive of the Hospital in the event that
the Hospital is a partner of the Partnership), its employees, and the
directors, officers, and employees of the general partner of the
Partnership (each of the foregoing is herein referred to as an
"Indemnitee") from and against any and all Loss arising in connection
with or as a result of (i) any breach hereof by the Hospital; (ii) the
presence of the Mobile Unit at the designated parking space, (iii) the
movement of any person to and from or within the Mobile Unit, (iv) any
failure to diagnose conditions in any patient, unless due to the
negligence of the Partnership or its employees, or (v) any other
matter involving professional malpractice or negligence on the part of
the Hospital or its employees.
(b) The Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Hospital and its directors and trustees, officers, and employees from
and against any and all Loss arising in connection with or as a result
of (i) any breach thereof by the Partnership; (ii) any matter
involving negligence on the part of the Partnership or its employees;
and (iii) any injury to any person or damage to property occurring
while the Mobile Unit is in transit.
(c) If any event shall give rise to an assertion by a
party hereto that the other party should indemnify it, the party
claiming indemnification shall promptly give written notice to the
other, setting forth the basis of the claim. The parties shall
cooperate to ensure that any lawsuit or claim is answered in a timely
fashion. The indemnifying party may appoint counsel to defend the
matter, although such counsel shall be acceptable to both parties.
The indemnified party may, however, at its discretion, participate in
the defense of such matter and may be represented by its own counsel,
and such shall not be deemed to waive its right to indemnification for
expenses of attorneys. The indemnified party may not settle,
compromise, or pay any matter without the express, prior consent of
the indemnifying party. The right to obtain indemnification hereunder
shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall not be
subject to any right of set-off or counterclaim.
(d) For the purposes of this paragraph 9, the term "Loss"
shall mean any loss, damage, liability, cost, and expense including,
without limitation, any interest, fine, court costs, reasonable
investigation costs, penalties, and attorneys' and expert witness fees
(including such fee in all trials, appeals, and administrative
proceedings), disbursements, and expenses.
(e) Each party's obligations to indemnify the other party
hereunder is independent of and not affected by the availability or
non-availability of any insurance coverage or payment under any policy
of insurance, from any trust fund, or otherwise nor shall the
obligation of the party to indemnify the other party hereunder be
affected by any change in insurance, reduction in coverage, change in
policy terms, creation of trust funds, or any other cause.
10. Managing Agent. The Hospital acknowledges that the
Partnership has contracted with Medcross to act as its management
agent. The Hospital agrees to cooperate fully with Medcross and its
employees and to accept the requests and directions of Medcross as
representing those of the Partnership.

(e) The termination of this Agreement under the provision
of paragraphs 11(b) and 11(d) shall not affect the rights of the
Hospital or the Partnership with respect to any damages they have
