Agreements

the capital stock of EMZA, Inc., which interests are disclosed in Schedule 3.5,

3. Amendment of Section 8.3(a). The parenthetical phrase included in the
---------------------------
first sentence of Section 8.3(a) shall be deleted and replaced by a
parenthetical phrase reading as follows: "(which for purposes of the
indemnification referred to in subparagraph (iv) below, shall include Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Co., Health Care Capital Partners, L.P., Health Care
Executive Partners, L.P. and SunTrust Equitable Securities, Inc. and their
respective Affiliates, but shall not include NationsBank, N.A.)".
---------
4. Execution of Escrow Agreement. Simultaneously with the execution and
-----------------------------
delivery of this Agreement, (i) the Buyer, the Seller and NationsBank, N.A., as
Escrow Agent, are executing and delivering an Escrow Agreement, dated as of the
date hereof, in the form attached to this Amendment as Exhibit "A" and (ii) the
Buyer is depositing into the escrow fund created by such Escrow Agreement the
sum of $2,000,000 in cash in immediately available funds, such funds to be held
and disbursed pursuant to the terms of such Escrow Agreement. Seller shall be
responsible for all fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent in accordance with
Section 5.5 of the Escrow Agreement.
5. Post Closing Covenants. The Seller shall (i) use reasonable efforts to
----------------------
cause EMZA, Inc. to change its name to a name that is dissimilar to the name of

the escrow fund referred to in paragraph 4 above, Seller shall pay any amount of
the premium for the Medical Malpractice/Professional Liability Coverage in
excess of the amount of the escrow fund in order to obtain the coverage required
pursuant to Section 5.12 of the Agreement. Seller acknowledges and agrees that
a claim by the Buyer against Seller for non-performance of its obligation to pay
such portion of the insurance premium or to pay any amounts relating to
liability or expenses exceeding such coverage, if any, shall not be subject to
the limitations on the indemnification obligations of the Seller set forth in
Sections 8.2(a) and 8.2(b) of the Agreement.

listing of personal property owned by the Company or Subsidiaries and shall
agree to necessary additions or deletions to the Personal Property List.
7. Noncompetition, Nonsolicitation and Confidentiality. Buyer and Seller
---------------------------------------------------
acknowledge and agree that, as of the Closing, the noncompetition,
nonsolicitation and confidentiality provisions of Section 5.17 of the Agreement
supersede in its entirety that certain Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation and
Standstill Agreement dated as of February 25, 1998 and that such agreement shall
terminate on the Closing Date and be of no further force and effect.
