Entity Account shall contain the name of the Orthodontic Entity, but USOC shall
make all disbursements therefrom. USOC shall account for all monies so disbursed
from the Orthodontic Entity Account. From the funds collected and deposited each
month by USOC in the Orthodontic Entity Account, USOC shall make the following

any time, be insufficient to cover current expenses, USOC shall notify the
Orthodontic Entity and USOC shall advance to the Orthodontic Entity the
necessary funds to pay current expenses for the benefit of the Orthodontic
Entity, which advances will be deemed to be loans to the Orthodontic Entity to
be repaid upon such terms as agreed to by the Orthodontic Entity and USOC, which
indebtedness shall be deemed a Center Expense for purposes of Article III
hereof; provided, however, that in any event the outstanding principal amount of
such indebtedness shall bear interest at an annual rate adjusted on the first

published by the Wall Street Journal as the prime rate, as of the last business
day of the immediately preceding month for which such prime rate was published
(the "Prime Rate"), plus one percent (1%).

Orthodontic Entity's facilities so that they are readily accessible for patient
care. The management of all files and records shall comply with applicable state
and federal statutes. USOC shall use its reasonable efforts to preserve the
confidentiality of patient medical records and use information contained in such
records only for the limited purpose necessary to perform the services set forth
herein; provided, however, in no event shall a breach of said confidentiality be
deemed a default under this Agreement.

II. OBLIGATIONS OF THE ORTHODONTIC ENTITY

2.1. Employment of Orthodontists and Rendering of Patient Care. The
Orthodontic Entity shall be responsible for the employment and professional
supervision of all Orthodontist(s) and dental hygienists affiliated with the
Orthodontic Entity and all orthodontic care rendered to patients shall be
rendered by such Orthodontist(s). Additionally, the Orthodontist shall be
responsible for the direct professional supervision of all hygienists and
technicians in their rendering of patient care.

2.2. Professional Services. The Orthodontic Entity shall use and occupy
the offices and facilities designated on Exhibit 1.2 exclusively for the
practice of orthodontic and general dentistry services, and shall comply with
all applicable local rules, ordinances and all standards of dental and
orthodontic care. It is expressly acknowledged by the parties that the
orthodontic practice conducted at the Center shall be conducted solely by the
Orthodontists associated with the Orthodontic Entity except those additional
orthodontists employed by the general dentists' offices from which the
Orthodontic Entity rents only space, and no other orthodontist shall be
permitted to use or occupy the Center, except as provided in Exhibit 2.2. The
Orthodontic Entity shall provide professional services to patients hereunder in
compliance at all times with ethical standards, and laws and regulations
applying to the dental profession. The Orthodontic Entity shall ensure that each
Orthodontist providing orthodontic or dental services to patients is licensed by
the state in which the Center is located. In the event that any disciplinary,
medical malpractice or other actions are initiated against any such
Orthodontist, the Orthodontic Entity shall immediately inform USOC of such
action and the underlying facts and circumstances. The Orthodontic Entity agrees
to cooperate with and participate in quality assurance/utilization review
programs established by USOC or mandated by accreditation and/or licensure
standards applicable to the practice of orthodontics and dentistry. Deficiencies
discovered in the performance of any personnel or in the quality of professional
services shall be reported immediately to USOC, and appropriate steps shall be
taken by the Orthodontic Entity at once to remedy such deficiencies. Any
termination of an Orthodontist other than for cause (as such term is defined in
the Employment Agreement between the Orthodontic Entity and the Orthodontist)
must be approved by a majority of the Board of Advisors of USOC.

2.3. Records. The Orthodontic Entity will keep or cause to be kept
accurate, complete and timely medical and other records of all patients. Such
records shall be

sufficient to enable USOC, on behalf of the Orthodontic Entity, to obtain
payment for the services provided by the Orthodontist.

2.4. Professional Expenses. Payments expended each fiscal year by the
Orthodontic Entity on behalf of the Orthodontist and other orthodontists or
dentists delivering patient care at the Center(s) for continuing education,
seminars, professional license fees and dues, professional memberships, expenses
related to a company automobile for the Orthodontist, and all other expenses of
the Orthodontist and other orthodontists and dentists delivering patient care at
the Center(s) that do not directly benefit the Orthodontic Entity (as determined
by the auditors for USOC), up to the amount of three percent (3%) of the
Orthodontic Entity's Adjusted Gross Revenue, shall be considered a Center
Expense. To the extent that such expenses exceed three percent (3%) of the
Orthodontic Entity's Adjusted Gross Revenue for such year, the Center Expenses
shall be reduced by such excess amount solely for the purpose of calculating the
Service Fee (as defined in the Service Agreement); provided, however, that the
Orthodontic Entity shall pay such excess expenses. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Orthodontic Entity shall be solely responsible for the cost of
professional licensure fees and board certification fees, membership in
professional associations, and continuing professional education incurred by the
Orthodontist. The Orthodontic Entity shall ensure that the Orthodontist
participates in such continuing education as is necessary for such Orthodontist
to remain current.

2.5. Professional Insurance Eligibility. The Orthodontic Entity shall
cooperate in the obtaining and retaining of professional liability insurance by
assuring that each of its Orthodontists is insurable, and participating in an
on-going risk management program.

2.6. Employment Agreement. The parties recognize that the services to
be provided by USOC are feasible only if the Orthodontic Entity operates an
active orthodontic practice to which it and each orthodontist associated with
the Orthodontic Entity devote their full time and attention. Simultaneously with
the execution of this Agreement, each Orthodontist who is or becomes an equity
owner of the Orthodontic Entity or delivers patient care at the Center(s) on
average more than ten (10) days each month, whether on the date hereof or at any
time during the term of this Agreement, shall enter into an employment agreement
with the Orthodontic Entity in substantially the form of that certain Employment
Agreement dated of even date herewith by and between the Orthodontic Entity and
the principal Orthodontist(s) of the Orthodontic Entity.

2.7. Confidentiality. The Orthodontic Entity agrees and acknowledges
that all materials provided by USOC or a USOC Affiliate (as hereinafter defined)
to the Orthodontic Entity, including all trade secrets, constitute "Confidential
Information" and are disclosed in confidence and with the understanding that it
constitutes valuable business information developed by USOC at great
expenditures of time, effort, and money. Trade secrets are property rights
protected by law and, for purposes of this letter, shall have the meaning
provided under applicable _______________ law. The Orthodontic Entity further
agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, without the express prior
written consent of USOC, use or

disclose such Confidential information for any purpose other than in connection
with the services to be rendered hereunder. The Orthodontic Entity further
agrees: (i) to keep strictly confidential and hold in trust all Confidential
Information and not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party
without the express prior written consent of USOC; and (ii) to impose this
obligation of confidentiality on its affiliates, co-owners, associates,
partners, employees, shareholders, members and independent contractors. The
Orthodontic Entity acknowledges that the disclosure of Confidential Information
to it by USOC is done in reliance upon its representations and covenants in this
Agreement. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement by either party for
any reason whatsoever, the Orthodontic Entity shall immediately return and shall
cause its affiliates, co-owners, associates, partners, employees, shareholders,
members and independent contractors to immediately return to USOC all
Confidential Information (only to the extent such Confidential Information does
not include patient information), and the Orthodontic Entity will not, and will
cause its affiliates, co-owners, associates, partners, employees, shareholders,
members and independent contractors not to, thereafter use, appropriate, or
reproduce such Confidential Information. The Orthodontic Entity further
expressly acknowledges and agrees that any such use, appropriation, or
reproduction of any such Confidential Information by any of the foregoing after
the expiration or termination of this Agreement will result in irreparable
injury to USOC, that the remedy at law for the foregoing would be inadequate,
and that in the event of any such use, appropriation, or reproduction of any
such Confidential Information after the termination or expiration of this
Agreement, USOC, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to it,
shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief. As used in this
Agreement, the term "USOC Affiliate" shall mean (i) each corporation or other
business entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under
common control with USOC and (ii) each orthodontic or dental practice to which
USOC provides management or consulting services, the employees and principals of
such practices, and each corporation or other business entity directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with each such
practice or the principals thereof.

2.8. Leases. The Orthodontic Entity agrees to sublease from USOC the
Center or Centers leased by USOC at which the Orthodontic Entity is practicing
pursuant to the form of Center Sublease Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit
2.8. All such Center Sublease Agreements shall include a provision whereby the
parties agree that the Orthodontic Entity maintains complete care, custody and
control over such office space. The lease expenses incurred by Orthodontic
Entity in connection with the Center Sublease Agreement will be deemed "Center
Expenses" for purposes of Article III of this Agreement.

2.9. Covenant Not to Compete. During the term of this Agreement, the
Orthodontic Entity, and any of its shareholders, agrees not to establish,
develop or open any offices for the provision of orthodontic services within a
ten (10) mile radius of any of the Centers covered by this Agreement (the "Area
of Dominant Influence") without the express written consent of USOC. For a
period of two (2) years following the termination of this Agreement, the
Orthodontic Entity and any of its shareholders shall be prohibited within the

Area of Dominant Influence (i) from advertising in print (except for yellow page
advertising and announcements for the opening of a practice) or electronic media
of any kind, (ii) from soliciting in any manner patients, orthodontists or staff
associated with the Centers, and (iii) from soliciting any referrals from any
dentist who referred one or more patients to the Center within the three (3)
years prior to the date of such termination. In the event the Orthodontic Entity
terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.2(b), then this Section 2.9
shall be void and of no further effect; provided, however, the remainder of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

Entity which is dismissed within thirty (30) days thereafter, USOC may give
written notice of the immediate termination of this Agreement.

(b) In the event the Orthodontic Entity shall materially default in
the performance of any duty or obligation imposed upon it by this Agreement, and
such default shall continue for a period of ninety (90) days after written
notice thereof has been given to the Orthodontic Entity by USOC, USOC may
terminate this Agreement.

5.4. Actions after Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement by
either party for any reason other than a default by the Orthodontic Entity or
upon expiration of this Agreement, the Orthodontic Entity may, and upon
termination of this Agreement by USOC due to the reasons set forth in Section
5.3(b) hereof, the Orthodontic Entity shall:

(a) Purchase all improvements, additions or leasehold improvements
which have been made by USOC and which relate solely to the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement at adjusted book value;

(b) Assume all debt and all contracts, payables and leases which are
obligations of USOC and which relate solely to the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement or the properties subleased by USOC; and

(c) Purchase from USOC at book value all of the equipment of the
Center, including all replacements and additions thereto made by USOC pursuant
to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, and all other
assets, including inventory and supplies, tangibles and intangibles (including
but not limited to accounts receivable), set forth on the balance sheet prepared
for the month most recently ended prior to the date of such termination in
accordance with GAAP to reflect operations of the Center, depreciation,
amortization and other adjustments of assets shown on such balance sheet.

5.5. Closing of Repurchase by the Orthodontic Entity and Effective Date
of Termination. Unless another form of payment is agreed to by USOC at such
time, the Orthodontic Entity shall pay cash to USOC for (i) the assets
repurchased pursuant to Section 5.4 and (ii) an amount equal to the Service Fee
that would have been payable hereunder for services rendered to patients by the
Orthodontic Entity prior to the termination of this Agreement; provided,
however, that such cash Service Fee payment shall only be made as

payment for such services as are actually collected by the Orthodontic Entity.
The amount of the purchase price shall be reduced by the amount of debt and
liabilities of USOC assumed by the Orthodontic Entity and shall also be reduced
by any payment USOC has failed to make under this Agreement. The Orthodontic
Entity and any Orthodontist associated with the Orthodontic Entity shall execute
such documents as may be required to assume the liabilities set forth in Section
5.4(c) and shall use its best efforts to remove USOC from any liability with
respect to such repurchased assets and with respect to any property leased or
subleased by USOC. The closing date for the repurchase shall be determined by
the Orthodontic Entity, but shall in no event occur later than 180 days from the
date of the notice of termination. The termination of this Agreement shall
become effective upon the closing of the sale of the assets and the Orthodontic
Entity and USOC shall be released from the restrictive covenants provided for in
Section 2.9 on the closing date. From and after any termination, each party
shall provide the other party with reasonable access to books and records then
owned by it to permit such requesting party to satisfy reporting and contractual
obligations which may be required of it.

5.6. Patient Records. Upon termination of this Agreement, the
Orthodontic Entity shall retain all patient medical records maintained by the
Orthodontic Entity or USOC in the name of the Orthodontic Entity. During the
term of this Agreement, and thereafter, the Orthodontic Entity or its designee
shall have reasonable access during normal business hours to the Orthodontic
Entity's and USOC's records, including, but not limited to, records of
collections, expenses and disbursements as kept by USOC in performing USOC's
obligations under this Agreement, and the Orthodontic Entity may copy any or all
such records.

VI. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR

6.1. Orthodontic Entity's Control Over Professional Services.
Notwithstanding the authority granted to USOC herein, USOC and the Orthodontic
Entity agree that the affiliated Orthodontist, personally or through any of his
professional employees or agents, shall have control or supervision over the
provision of all professional services, with the sole authority to direct the
professional, and ethical aspects of his orthodontic practice. USOC will have no
authority, directly or indirectly, to perform, and will not perform, any
orthodontic function. USOC may, however, advise the Orthodontic Entity as to the
relationship between its performance of orthodontic functions and the overall
administrative and business functions of its practice.

6.2. Independent Relationship. The Orthodontic Entity and USOC intend
to act and perform as independent contractors, and the provisions hereof are not
intended to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or employment
relationship between the parties. The Orthodontic Entity will not have any claim
under this Agreement, or otherwise, against USOC for vacation pay, sick leave,
unemployment insurance, worker's compensation, disability benefits or employee
benefits of any kind.

6.3. Other Professionals. No provision of this Agreement is intended to
limit USOC's right, authority, or ability under applicable law to contract with
other dentists or physicians, or to employ, contract with, or enter into any
partnership or joint venture with any healthcare professional; provided that the
exercise of such right, authority or ability does not contravene the terms of
this Agreement.

6.4 Patient Care. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to interfere,
or shall be construed as interfering, in any way with the Orthodontist(s)'s
ability to independently exercise professional and ethical judgment in the
performance of his patient care responsibilities.

Such Service Fee shall be adjusted annually at the beginning of each calendar
year; provided, however, that during the term of this Agreement, such Service
Fee percentage shall not be less than the initial Service Fee percentage charged
during the first year of the term of this Agreement.

Example
If the Orthodontic Entity grossed $100,000 (net of adjustments) in the first
month and the Profit Margin in 1996 was 50%, then the Service Fee for the first
month will be set at $100,000 * 15.75%, or $15,750. If during the next month,
the practice increased its Adjusted Gross Revenue to $110,000, the Service Fee
for the month would be $110,000 * 15.75%, or $17,325. All profit percentages
will be rounded up to the nearest category.
