ARTICLE VIII

TERM AND TERMINATION

8.1 Term. The initial term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for a period of twenty (20) years, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.2 of this Agreement. The initial term and any renewal term shall be referred to herein as the “Term.”

8.2 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated as follows:

8.2.1 By mutual written agreement of the parties.

8.2.2 By either party if the other party: (i) either admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, and such was not the result of action or inaction on the part of the other party; or (ii) a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator is appointed for the party, or to take possession of all or substantially all of that party’s property; or (iii) a petition for insolvency, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization, or order for relief in which that party is named as a debtor is filed and that party fails to secure a stay or discharge within 45 days after such appointment or filing and such was not the result of action or inaction by the other party.

8.2.3 In the event of a Fundamental Regulatory Change as defined in Section 8.4, to the extent permitted by Section 8.4.

8.2.4 SPRPA may terminate this Agreement if Support Services Company is in material breach of its obligations hereunder as a result of the grossly negligent, or deliberately wrongful, acts or omissions of Support Services Company, and such material breach has directly resulted in Substantial Harm to SPRPA (a “Qualifying Breach”); provided, however, that prior to any such termination (i) SPRPA must send a notice to Support Services Company which identifies with specificity (a) the nature of the alleged breach by Support Services Company, (b) SPRPA’s determination as to what Support Services Company must do to remedy such Qualifying Breach and (c) the damages being suffered by SPRPA as a result of such Qualifying Breach; and (ii) Support Services shall have one hundred twenty (120) days following receipt of such notice to cure the breach or, with respect to a breach that is not capable of being cured within such one hundred twenty (120) day period, have engaged in a good faith effort to cure such breach as soon as practicable and cured such breach no later than 1 year following receipt of such notice. If, at the end of such one hundred twenty day (or 1 year) period, SPRPA believes that Support Services Company has failed to cure such breach (or engage in good faith efforts to cure such breach, as applicable), SPRPA shall send to Support Services Company a final notice of termination, in which case the termination of this Agreement shall be effective 90 days following the receipt of such final notice by Support Services Company unless Support Services Company objects in writing to SPRPA within such 90 day period that SPRPA has the right to terminate under this Section 8.2.4. If such an objection notice is delivered, no such termination will be effective unless and until SPRPA is determined to have the right to so terminate this Agreement pursuant to the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 11.11. “Substantial Harm” means material harm to the financial condition of SPRPA.

In the event that SPRPA has sent Support Services Company a notice that it believes that there has occurred a Qualifying Breach and Support Services Company has not, within sixty (60) days of receipt of such notice, disputed in writing that a Qualifying Breach has occurred, SPRPA shall be entitled to retain a third party to provide such service(s) that Support Services Company is alleged to be failing to provide in the manner required hereunder (the “Deficient Services”)

10

and Support Services Company shall indemnify SPRPA for its out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in retaining such third party until such Qualifying Breach has been remedied (or until this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms). In the event that SPRPA has sent Support Services Company a notice that it believes that there has occurred a Qualifying Breach and Support Services Company, within sixty (60) days of receipt of such notice, disputes in writing that a Qualifying Breach has occurred, then SPRPA shall be entitled to retain a third party to provide the alleged Deficient Services, but Support Services Company shall not be obligated to indemnify SPRPA for its costs and expenses incurred in retaining such third party unless and until it is determined, in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.11, that a Qualifying Breach in fact occurred, in which case Support Services Company shall be responsible for indemnifying SPRPA for such out of pocket costs and expenses from the time the notice alleging the Qualifying Breach was received until the time when it is determined that such breach was remedied.

8.2.5 In the event of the termination of the Professional Services Agreement of even date herewith by and between SPRPA and Night Hawk Radiology Services LLC, then either party may terminate this Agreement by giving thirty (30) days written notice of termination to the other party; provided, however, that SPRPA may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.2.5 if such Professional Services Agreement was terminated under Section 13.2(a) of such agreement.

8.2.6 In the event that the Administrative Support Service Agreement of even date herewith by and between Support Services Company and Midwest Radiology, LLC terminates in accordance with Sections 8.2.1 – 8.2.4 thereto, then either party can terminate this Agreement by providing the other party with 30 days’ written notice.

Upon termination of this Agreement as herein provided, neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder except that: (i) obligations accruing prior to the date of termination under this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement (including SPRPA’s obligation to pay Support Services Company its Management Fee and all other amounts owing for past services performed); (ii) obligations, promises or covenants contained herein that are expressly or by operation of law made to extend beyond the term of this Agreement (e.g., indemnification, insurance, confidentiality, access to records) shall be so extended; and (iii) all books and records directly or indirectly related to the operations of SPRPA, and all patient and other records and documents relating to services provided by the Radiologists shall remain the property of SPRPA and any such records in the custody of Support Services Company shall be returned to SPRPA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, upon termination of this Agreement, Support Services Company shall continue to have a license to use all “de-identified” data and information that it has generated, directly or indirectly, in connection with services that it has rendered to SPRPA as and to the extent provided in the data license agreement between the parties of even date herewith.

of SPRPA to any third party other than any entity providing professional radiology services within fifty (50) miles of any hospital at which Radiologists provide professional radiology services (excluding teleradiology services) at the time of such assignment, and for purposes of clarity, no Change in Control of Support Services Company (or any affiliate of Support Services Agreement) shall require the consent of SPRPA. SPRPA shall not be permitted to assign or delegate any rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of Support Services Company, and any such assignment is strictly prohibited except with the written consent of the other parties hereto; provided, however, that such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any Change in Control of SPRPA shall be deemed to be an assignment by SPRPA of this Agreement. A “Change in Control” means, with respect to any entity, (i) the sale, lease, exchange or other transfer, directly or indirectly, of all or substantially all of the assets of such entity, in one transaction or in a series of related transactions, to any third party (which includes for purposes of this Section 11.6 any affiliate of the party); (ii) the sale or other transfer of securities in a single transaction or series of related transactions occurring within a 180 day period representing, (x) in the case of membership units or partnership interests, units or interests entitling the holder thereof to be allocated 50% or more of the net income, net loss or distributions of the party, or, (y) in the case of other securities, securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the party’s outstanding securities ordinarily having the right to vote at elections of directors; and/or (iii) the consummation of any transaction or series of transactions under which party is merged or consolidated with any other company, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the members or security holders of the party immediately prior thereto continuing to own (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation.

11.7 Terminology. All personal pronouns used in this Agreement, whether used in the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender, shall include all other genders; and the singular shall include the plural, and vice versa.

11.8 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended except by the mutual written agreement of the parties.

11.9 Parties in Interest. Each and all of the covenants, terms, provisions and agreements herein contained shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and, to the extent permitted by this Agreement, their respective legal representatives, successors, permitted transferees and assigns.

11.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

11.11 Dispute Resolution. Except as provided in Section 6.3, any controversy, disputes or disagreements arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be resolved pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 11.11. In the event of a dispute under this Agreement, the parties shall first attempt to resolve the dispute by submitting the matter in writing to their respective CEOs or their designees, collectively the Dispute Resolution Team (DRT). In the event that the DRT is unable to resolve the dispute within 30 days after submission of the matter to them, then the parties shall submit the matter in dispute to nonbinding mediation. The parties hereto shall mutually select the mediator and shall meet with the mediator at least twice within 30 days following such selection. If, through mediation, the parties are unable to resolve the matter at issue within 30 days after selecting a mediator, or if the parties are unable to agree upon a mediator, then the dispute shall be resolved through final and binding arbitration pursuant to the arbitration rules of the American Health Lawyers Association (“AHLA”), without submitting such dispute to be administered by the AHLA. A judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the controversy. The arbitration proceedings shall be held in Minneapolis or St. Xxxx, Minnesota at a location selected by Support Services Company. Minnesota law shall govern the resolution of the dispute pursuant to this Section 11.11. The parties may, if they are able to do so, agree upon one arbitrator; otherwise, there shall be three arbitrators, one named in writing by each party within 30 days after arbitration demand is served upon the other party, and the third arbitrator shall be selected by the two named arbitrators within 30 days after their appointment. If a party does not select an arbitrator within 30 days, the arbitrator selected by the other party shall select such arbitrator. The prevailing party (if reasonably ascertainable) shall be entitled to reimbursement of all of the prevailing party’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with the arbitration (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and payment of the expenses of the arbitrators). If the prevailing party is not reasonably ascertainable, then each party shall pay its own expenses of conducting the arbitration and one-half of the expenses of the arbitrators.

11.12 Access to Books and Records by Governmental Officials. Upon written request of the Secretary of Health and Human Services or the Comptroller General or any other duly authorized representatives thereof, Support Services Company shall make available to the Secretary those contracts, books, documents and records necessary to verify the nature and extent of the cost of providing its services to the Radiologists. Such inspection shall be available up to four years after such services are rendered. If Support Services Company carries out any of the duties of this Agreement through subcontract with a value of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) or more over a 12-month period with a related individual or organization, Support Services Company agrees to include this requirement in such subcontract. If a request from the Secretary or the Secretary’s representative is served on Support Services Company, Support Services Company will notify the SPRPA in writing as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter and in any event prior to responding to the request.

11.13 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements, understandings, representations or warranties between the parties, whether written or oral.

11.14 Waiver. No consent to, or waiver of, any breach or default on the part of any party to this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to be a consent to or waiver of any other breach or default in the performance by such party of the same or any other obligations of such party under this Agreement. Failure on the part of a non-breaching or non-defaulting party to complain of any act or failure to act on the part of a breaching or defaulting party, or to declare that party in breach or default, shall not constitute a consent by the non-breaching or non-defaulting party to such action or inaction or a waiver by the non-breaching or non-defaulting party of its rights under this Agreement.
