(S)1. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE CREDIT.
-------------------------------------
(S)1.1 Recitals; Credit Commitments. The Company wishes to (a) establish

in favor of the Company a revolving credit with the Bank in an aggregate

Expiration Date"), and (b) establish in favor of each of the Subsidiaries of the
--------------- -
Company now or hereafter organized as a joint venture between the Company and a

-------------
collectively the "JV Subsidiaries") a revolving credit with the Bank in an
---------------
aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not in excess of $4,500,000
(the "JV Credit Commitment"), each to expire on the Credit Expiration Date. The
--------------------
Bank hereby establishes such revolving credit facility in favor of the Company
and agrees to make the Company Revolving Credit Loans subject to the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth, and the Bank hereby establishes such revolving
credit facility in favor of the JV Subsidiaries in the maximum principal amount
of the JV Credit Commitment and agrees to make JV Revolving Credit Loans,
subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and as set forth in
the Revolving Credit Agreements substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A or in such other form as the subject JV Subsidiary and the Bank shall
---------
approve (each a "JV Revolving Credit Agreement" and collectively the "JV
Revolving Credit Agreements").
(S)1.2 Company Revolving Credit Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and
--------------------------------------
conditions hereof, the Bank hereby establishes a secured revolving credit
facility (the "Company Credit") in favor of the Company in the maximum principal
--------------
amount of the Company Credit Commitment. Under the Company Credit, subject to
the terms and conditions hereof, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow from
time to time prior to the Credit Expiration Date an aggregate principal amount
at any time outstanding not in excess of the Available Company Credit Commitment
in effect on such date. As used herein, the term "Available Company Credit
------------------------
Commitment" shall mean, as of any date of determination, an amount equal to the
----------
Company Credit Commitment minus the aggregate principal amount outstanding under
the Company Revolving Credit Note. Each such borrowing pursuant to the Company
Credit is herein called a "Company Revolving Credit Loan" and such borrowings
-----------------------------
are collectively called the "Company Revolving Credit Loans".
------------------------------
(b) Each Company Revolving Credit Loan shall be made by the Bank in such
amount (not in excess of the then unused portion of the Available Company Credit
Commitment) as the Company shall request; provided that each Company Revolving
-------- ----
Credit Loan shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000 or such lesser amount as may
be equal to the then unused portion of the Available Company Credit Commitment.
All Company Revolving Credit Loans shall be effected at the principal banking
office of the Bank in Boston, Massachusetts, and shall be made at such times
before the Credit Expiration Date as the Company may specify by delivering to
the Bank, not later than 12:00 noon, Boston, Massachusetts time on the Business
Day on which such Company Revolving Credit Loan is proposed to be made, a
request therefor. Such Company Revolving Credit Loan requests may be delivered
by mail, courier, telex, telecopy or other facsimile transmission. The Bank
shall make each Company Revolving Credit Loan hereunder on the proposed date
thereof by crediting the amount thereof in immediately available funds to the
Company's regular deposit account with the Bank.

-------------------------------------
to be made by the Bank pursuant to this (S)1 shall be evidenced by a promissory
----
note of the Company in a principal amount equal to the Company Credit Commitment

--------- -------
Revolving Credit Note"). The outstanding principal balance of the Company
---------------------
Revolving Credit Note and all other amounts outstanding under or with respect to
the Company Revolving Credit Note shall be due and payable on the Credit
Expiration Date. The Company Revolving Credit Note shall bear interest at the
applicable rate or rates set forth in (S)1.4.
(S)1.4 Interest.

the Company Revolving Credit Note shall be equal to the Base Rate plus the
Applicable Interest Rate Premium;

increased by the amount set forth below, beginning on the Interest Rate
Adjustment Date next following such fiscal year end and until the next following

Less than 1.00 to 1.00 as of 12/31/97 .55%
--------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------

(S)1.5 Fees; Changes in Law and Increased Fees.

----------------------
commencing on the date hereof to and including the Credit Expiration Date, or
the earlier date of the termination of the Company Credit Commitment hereunder,
equal to three-eighths percent (3/8%) per annum (computed on the basis of the
actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year) of the average daily unused
portion of the Company Credit Commitment. The Company Commitment Fee shall be
payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of April, July, October and
January in each year, commencing on the first such date next succeeding the date
hereof, and on the date of any reduction or termination of the Company Credit
Commitment in accordance with (S)1.6.

-3-
in each year, commencing on the first such date next succeeding the date hereof,
and on the date of any reduction or termination of the JV Credit Commitment in
accordance with (S)1.6.
(d) If any change in any requirement imposed upon the Bank by any law of
the United States of America or by any regulation, order, interpretation, ruling
or official directive (whether or not having the force of law) of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or any other board or governmental or administrative agency of the
United States of America, in each case after the date hereof, shall impose,
increase, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or
other requirement against the Company Credit Commitment or the JV Credit
Commitment, as the case may be, and the result of the foregoing, in the
reasonable determination of the Bank, is to impose a cost on the Bank that is
attributable to the maintaining of the Company Credit Commitment or the JV
Credit Commitment, as the case may be, then the Bank shall notify the Company in
writing of such fact. Thereupon, the Company Commitment Fee or the JV
Commitment Fee, as the case may be, payable to the Bank shall be increased, for
so long as the increased cost is imposed on the Bank, to the extent determined
by the Bank to be necessary to compensate the Bank for such increased cost. The
determination by the Bank of the amount of such cost, if done on the basis of
any reasonable averaging and attribution methods, shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive, and at the Company's request the Bank shall
demonstrate the basis for such determination.
(S)1.6 Reduction or Termination of Commitments. At any time prior to the
--------------------------------------------
Credit Expiration Date, on at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to
the Bank and subject to approval of the Bank, the Company may in whole
permanently terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Company
Credit Commitment and/or the JV Credit Commitment without penalty or premium.
Any such reduction hereunder shall be in an amount not less than $25,000.
Simultaneously with any termination or reduction of the Company Credit
Commitment and/or the JV Credit Commitment hereunder, the Company shall pay the
Bank the Company Commitment Fee or the JV Credit Commitment, as the case may be,
on the terminated or reduced portion of the Company Credit Commitment or the JV
Credit Commitment, as the case may be, accrued to the date of such termination
or reduction.

-------------------
Agreement, if at any time the outstanding balance of Company Revolving Credit
Loans exceeds the then effective Company Credit Commitment the Company will
immediately repay the Company Revolving Credit Loans without penalty or premium
in an amount sufficient to cause the outstanding balance thereof not to exceed
the then effective Available Company Credit Commitment.
(S)1.8 Security; Subordination, etc. The Company Revolving Credit Note
------------------------------------
and the other obligations of the Company hereunder and under the other Company
Loan Documents from time to time executed in connection herewith shall be
secured by and
-4-
entitled to the benefits of the following (except to the extent that any thereof
may be expressly waived in writing by the Bank):
(i) a perfected security interest subject only to Permitted Liens in
all presently owned and after-acquired tangible and intangible personal property
and fixtures of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries pursuant to a security
agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C;

each Subsidiary of the Company to the Bank pursuant to a guaranty agreement in

(vi) a subordination agreement or agreements signed by each Affiliate

satisfactory to the Bank.
All of the agreements and instruments described in this (S)1.8, together with
------
any and all other agreements and instruments heretofore or hereafter securing
the Company Revolving Credit Note and the other obligations of the Company
hereunder and under the other Company Loan Documents, are sometimes hereinafter
referred to collectively as the "Company Security Documents" and individually as
--------------------------
a "Company Security Document". All of the personal property, fixtures, real
-------------------------
estate, leasehold interests and Shares described in this (S)1.8, together with
------
any additions thereto or replacements or proceeds thereof, are sometimes
hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Company Collateral". The Company
------------------
agrees to take such actions as may be reasonably deemed necessary or advisable
by the Bank from time to time to cause the Bank to be secured by and entitled to
the benefits of the Company Security Documents as described in this (S)1.8,
------
including, without limitation, using its commercially reasonable best efforts to
obtain consents of any third parties. Without limiting the foregoing, the

-5-
leased by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company Security Documents
shall be satisfactory in form to the Bank and its counsel. The Bank acknowledges
that medical services rendered to Patients at centers managed by the Company are
rendered by the Friendly PCs and not by the Company. In certain cases, the
resulting professional fees and accounts receivable are assigned to the Company,
except that in the case of services rendered to Patients covered by Medicare and
Medicaid, the income received by the Friendly PC on account of such services
(rather than the professional fee or account receivable) is assigned to the
Company. For purposes of this Agreement and the Company Security Documents,
including for purposes of the definitions of the terms "Account Receivable" and
"Account Debtor", (1) such assigned accounts receivable shall be considered the
accounts receivable of the Company and the related Patient or third party payor
shall be deemed the Account Debtor, and (2) the Medicare and Medicaid accounts
receivable of the Friendly PC shall be deemed accounts receivable of the
Company, and the Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtor shall be deemed the Account
Debtor.
(S)1.9 Overdue Payments. If the Company shall fail to make any payment of
------------------------
principal of or interest on the Company Revolving Credit Note when due, whether
at maturity or at a date fixed for the payment of any installment or prepayment
thereof or by demand, declaration, acceleration or otherwise, then, during the
continuance of any such Company Event of Default and commencing five (5) days
after the due date for such payment, interest on the unpaid principal and (to
the extent permitted by law) on the unpaid interest on the Company Revolving
Credit Note shall thereafter be payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to
four percent (4%) above the rate otherwise applicable to the Company Revolving
Credit Note hereunder.
(S)1.10 Notations. Prior to any sale or other disposition of the Company
------------------
Revolving Credit Note by the Bank, the Bank shall make a notation on the Company
Revolving Credit Note (or on a paper annexed thereto) of the unpaid principal
amount thereof at the time outstanding, the last date to which interest has been
paid thereon and the amount of unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date of
such sale or disposition. Upon payment in full of the principal of and interest
on the Company Revolving Credit Note, the Company Revolving Credit Note shall be
cancelled and returned to the Company, provided that the Company Revolving
-------- ----
Credit Note shall not be cancelled or returned so long as the Bank shall be
obligated (subject to the terms and conditions hereof) to make Company Revolving
Credit Loans evidenced thereby.
(S)1.11 Form and Terms of Payment. All payments by the Company of
----------------------------------
principal of or interest on the Company Revolving Credit Note and of any fee or
other amount due hereunder shall be made at the address of the Bank set forth in
(S)13.1 (or at such other address as the Bank shall have furnished to the
-------
Company in writing) and shall be made in immediately available funds, without
any set-off, charge or deduction. The Company hereby irrevocably requests and
authorizes the Bank to charge the Company's deposit account(s) with the Bank for
the purpose of effecting such payments. If any payment of principal of or
interest on the Company Revolving Credit Note shall become due on a
-6-
day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding
Business Day and such extension shall be included in computing interest in
connection with such payment.
(S)1.12 Capital Adequacy. If the Bank shall have determined that the
-------------------------
adoption or implementation of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding
capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies, or any change therein
(including, without limitation, any change according to a prescribed schedule of
increasing requirements, whether or not known on the date of this Agreement), or
any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive
of such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of
law), in each case after the date hereof, has the effect of reducing the return
on the Bank's capital to a level below that which the Bank could have achieved
(taking into consideration the Bank's policies with respect to capital adequacy
immediately before such adoption, implementation, change or compliance and
assuming that the Bank's capital was fully utilized prior to such adoption,
implementation, change or compliance) but for such adoption, implementation,
change or compliance as a consequence of its commitments to make Company
Revolving Credit Loans or JV Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be,
hereunder by any amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then the Bank shall
notify the Company in writing of such fact. Thereupon, the Company shall pay to
the Bank as an additional fee from time to time on demand such amount as the
Bank shall have determined to be necessary to compensate it for such reduction.
The determination by the Bank of such amount, if done on the basis of any
reasonable averaging and attribution methods, shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be conclusive, and at the Company's request the Bank shall demonstrate
the basis of such determination.
(S)2. USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company will use the proceeds of the Company
----------------------
Revolving Credit Loans (a)for corporate purposes, including general working
-
capital purposes of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including, without
limitation, to finance Capital Expenditures of the Company and its Subsidiaries
and to finance Eligible Acquisitions, and (b) to pay transaction fees incurred
-
in connection with the Closing Events. The Company will not, and will not
permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, use any part of such proceeds
(i) for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock within the
-
meaning of Regulation U (12 CFR Part 221) or Regulation X (12 CFR Part 224) of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or (ii) for any other
--
purpose which would violate any provision of any other applicable statute,
regulation, order or restriction.
(S)3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. In order to induce the Bank to enter
-------------------------------------
into this Agreement and to make the Company Revolving Credit Loans provided for
hereunder, the Company makes the following representations and warranties, which
shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and of the Company Revolving
Credit Note (it being agreed that all such representations and warranties are
made by the Company after
-7-
giving effect to the transactions referred to in (S)4 below (including, without
----
limitation, the making of the initial Company Revolving Credit Loans and the
payment of the fees and expenses payable on the Closing Date) certain of which
are to occur prior to, or simultaneously with, the first Company Revolving
Credit Loan hereunder (collectively, the "Closing Events")):
------- ------
(S)3.1 Organization, Standing, etc. The Company and each of its
------------------------------------
Subsidiaries is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of jurisdiction of its organization and has all requisite
corporate (or equivalent) power and authority to own and operate its properties,
to carry on its business as now conducted and proposed to be conducted, to enter
into this Agreement, the other Company Loan Documents to which it is a party and
all other documents to be executed by it in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, to issue the Company Revolving Credit Note to
be issued by it and to carry out the terms hereof and thereof.
(S)3.2 Subsidiaries and Qualification. Except as listed on Schedule 3.2
-------------------------------------- ------------
hereto, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any Subsidiaries or
investments in the equity or debt securities of any other Person. The Company
and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed and in good standing
as a foreign entity duly authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which
the character of the properties owned or the nature of the activities conducted
makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure to so
qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the rights of the Bank under
the Company Loan Documents.
(S)3.3 Financial Information; Disclosure, etc. (a) The Company has
-----------------------------------------------
furnished the Bank with the financial statements of the Company and its
Subsidiaries and other reports listed on Schedule 3.3 hereto, including, without
------------
limitation, the audited financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996. Such financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
applied on a consistent basis (except as otherwise indicated in the notes
thereto) and fairly present the financial position and results of operations of
the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the dates and for the periods indicated
(subject, in the case of unaudited financial statements, to normal year-end and
audit adjustments and the omission of footnotes). Since June 30, 1997, there
has been no material adverse change in the business, operations, properties or
financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries except as disclosed on
Schedule 3.3 hereto.
------------
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any of the financial statements or reports
listed on Schedule 3.3 hereto or other documents or certificates furnished to
------------
the Bank by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby,
taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein
contained not misleading in light of the then existing facts and circumstances.
-8-
(c) None of the Company Revolving Credit Loans will render the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries unable to pay its or their debts as they become due.
Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is contemplating either the
liquidation of all or a major portion of its property or the filing of a
petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws
subsequent to date of this Agreement. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has any actual knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of
a petition against it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws
(within the meaning of any applicable fraudulent transfer or fraudulent
conveyance act or the federal Bankruptcy Code). The Company and its
Subsidiaries (both before and after the making of the Company Revolving Credit
Loans, the granting of security interests in favor of the Bank and the
consummation of the Closing Events) are not insolvent on a going concern basis
and the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has assets having a fair value on a
going concern basis in excess of the amount required to pay its probable
liabilities on its existing debts (including contingent debts) as they become
absolute and matured, and has, and will have for the reasonably foreseeable
future, access to adequate capital for the conduct of its business and the
ability to pay its debts from time to time incurred therewith as such debts
mature.
(S)3.4 Licenses; Franchises, etc. Schedule 3.4 hereto sets forth a true
---------------------------------- ------------
and correct list of all material authorizations, licenses, permits, franchises
and approvals of any public or governmental body issued to the Company or any
Subsidiary (collectively, the "Licenses"). The Licenses were properly granted
--------
and/or issued, and are in full force and effect and the Company and its
Subsidiaries have fulfilled and performed in all material respects all of their
obligations under such Licenses and no termination, non-renewal or material
amendment to any License is pending or threatened. Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries is required to obtain any additional authorizations,
licenses, permits or franchises of any public or governmental regulatory body
for the conduct of the business of the Company as now conducted, the failure of
which to obtain could have a Material Adverse Effect.
(S)3.5 Material Agreements. Schedule 3.5 hereto accurately and completely
--------------------------- ------------
lists each agreement and instrument to which the Company and/or a Subsidiary is
a party and/or which is presently in effect in connection with the conduct of
the business of the Company and/or such Subsidiary and which have been or will
be required to be included as exhibits to any report, schedule, form, statement
or other document required to be filed with the Securities Exchange Commission
(or any analogous foreign governmental authority) or any securities exchange.
Neither the Company or any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the best of the Company's
knowledge, any third party is in breach or in default under any such agreement
or instrument which breach or default could have a Material Adverse Effect.
(S)3.6 Tax Returns and Payments. The Company and its Subsidiaries have
--------------------------------
filed all tax returns required by law to be filed (taking into account the
effectiveness of properly filed requests for filing extensions) and have paid
all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges levied upon any of their
respective properties, assets, income
-9-
or franchises, other than (a) those not yet delinquent and (b) those being
----- ---- - -
diligently contested in good faith the non-payment of which could not have a
Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the
Company and each of its Subsidiaries in respect of its taxes are adequate in the
opinion of the Company, and the Company does not know of any unpaid assessment
for additional taxes or of any basis therefor.
(S)3.7 Indebtedness, Liens and Investments, etc. Schedule 3.7 hereto
------------------------------------------------- ------------
correctly describes, as of the date of this Agreement (other than trade debt due
in accordance with normal payment terms and such Indebtedness as shall be
incurred under the Company Loan Documents (as in effect on the date hereof)),
(a) all outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect
-
of borrowed money, Capital Leases and the deferred purchase price of property;
(b) all existing mortgages, liens and security interests in respect of any
--
property or assets of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries; (c) all outstanding
-
investments, loans and advances made by the Company and its Subsidiaries (other
than advances to employees made in the ordinary course of business); and (d) all
-
existing guarantees by the Company and/or its Subsidiaries (other than
endorsements of checks in the ordinary course of business).
(S)3.8 Title to Properties; Liens; Real Property; Leases. The Company and
---------------------------------------------------------
its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to all of their respective
properties and assets, and none of such properties or assets is subject to any
mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance except those
granted pursuant to the Company Security Documents, Permitted Liens, those liens
referred to in Schedule 3.7 hereto and other minor liens and encumbrances which
------------
(a) in the aggregate relate to Indebtedness of less than $100,000, (b) do not in
- -
any case materially detract from the value of the property subject thereto or
materially impair the operations of the Company and (c) have not arisen
-
otherwise than in the ordinary course of business. The real property owned by
the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and the real property leased by the Company
and/or its Subsidiaries (the "Real Estate Leases") are listed on Schedule 3.8
------------------ ------------
hereto. True, correct and complete copies of the Real Estate Leases, together
with all amendments and supplements thereto, have been furnished to the Bank.
The Company and its Subsidiaries enjoy quiet possession under all leases to
which they are a party as lessee, and all of such leases are valid, subsisting
and in full force and effect as to the Company or any such Subsidiary. None of
such leases contains any provision restricting the incurrence of Indebtedness by
the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries or any other unusual and burdensome
provision which has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
(S)3.9 Litigation, etc. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.9 hereto, there
------------------------ ------------
is no action, proceeding, litigation or investigation pending or, to the best of
the Company's knowledge, overtly threatened (or any basis therefor known to the
Company) by or against the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries or affecting
any of the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries' properties or assets which, if
adversely determined, could have a Material Adverse Effect.
-10-
(S)3.10 Authorization; Enforceability; Compliance with Other Instruments.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Company Revolving
Credit Note, the Security Documents and the other Company Loan Documents have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on the part of
the Company and its Subsidiaries, will not result in any violation of or be in
conflict with or constitute a default under any term of the charter or by-laws
of the Company or any Subsidiary, or of any agreement, instrument, judgment,
decree, order, statute, rule or governmental regulation applicable to the
Company or any Subsidiary (the result of which has or could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), or result in the creation of any
mortgage, lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of
the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to any such term (except those in favor
of the Bank pursuant to the Security Documents). This Agreement and the other
Company Loan Documents to which the Company and/or its Subsidiaries is a party
are legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and/or such Subsidiary,
enforceable against the Company and its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in
accordance with their respective terms, subject to the qualifications and
limitations that enforceability may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, equitable subordination or
other similar laws or doctrines now or hereafter in effect relating to
creditors' rights generally, and (ii) application of principles of equity
(regardless of whether considered at a proceeding in equity or at law),
including without limitation the principle that equitable remedies, such as the
remedy of specific performance, are subject to the discretion of the court
before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. Neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any term of its charter or by-laws,
or of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or of any judgment,
decree, order, statute, rule or governmental regulation applicable to it
(excluding any Environmental Law or any law referred to in (S)3.6, (S)3.13,
(S)3.14 or (S)3.19), which violation has or could reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has at all
times operated its business in substantial compliance with all applicable
provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (29 U.S.C. (S)106 and 207),
except where the failure to so comply could not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(S)3.11 Patents, Trademarks, Intellectual Property. Schedule 3.11 hereto
--------------------------------------------------- -------------
is a true, correct and complete list of all material Proprietary Rights of the
Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company and its Subsidiaries own or have
adequate rights to use all such Proprietary Rights and such Proprietary Rights
are adequate for the conduct of their respective businesses as now conducted,
without any known conflict with the rights or claimed rights of others.
(S)3.12 Consents. Except for such filings and notices as have already
-----------------
been made or are being made as at the Closing Date pursuant to the Company
Security Documents, and except for such filings as are contemplated by this
Agreement or the Company Security Documents, neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is required to obtain any order, consent, approval or authorization
of, or required to make any declaration or
-11-
filing with, any governmental authority in connection with (a) the execution,
-
delivery and performance of this Agreement, (b) the issuance and delivery of
-
the Company Revolving Credit Note pursuant hereto, (c) the execution, delivery
-
and performance of the Company Security Documents and the granting of the
security interests in the Company Collateral pursuant thereto, (d) the
-
the consummation of the Closing Events or (e) the exercise by the Bank of any of
-
its rights and remedies following a Company Event of Default (except in each
case for certain consents, the failure of which to obtain, individually and/or
in the aggregate, has not had and will not have a Material Adverse Effect).
(S)3.13 Regulation U, etc. Neither the Company nor any of its
---------------------------
Subsidiaries owns or has any intention of acquiring any "margin stock" within
the meaning of Regulation U (12 CFR Part 221) of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System (herein called "margin stock"). None of the proceeds of
------------
the Company Revolving Credit Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries for the purpose of purchasing or carrying,
or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally
incurred to purchase or carry, any margin stock or for any other purpose which
might constitute the transactions contemplated hereby a "purpose credit" within
the meaning of said Regulation U, or cause this Agreement to violate Regulation
U, Regulation T, Regulation X, or any other regulation of the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If
requested by the Bank, the Company and its Subsidiaries will promptly furnish
the Bank with a statement in conformity with the requirements of Federal Reserve
Form U-1.
(S)3.14 ERISA. Schedule 3.14 hereto sets forth a true and complete list
-------------- -------------
of all employee benefit plans and arrangements of the Company and its
Subsidiaries subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). The terms used in this (S)3.14 and
----- -------
in (S)5.1 and (S)6.10 of this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned thereto
------ -------
in the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, and the term "Affiliated
----------
Company" shall mean the Company and all corporations, partnerships, trades or
-------
businesses (whether or not incorporated) which constitute a controlled group of
corporations with the Company or are under common control with the Company
within the meaning of Section 414(b) or Section 414(c) of the Code, or Section
4001 of ERISA. Each employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company and, to the
best of the Company's knowledge, each multiemployer plan to which the Company
makes contributions is in material compliance with applicable provisions of
ERISA and the Code. No Affiliated Company has incurred any material liability
that would have a Material Adverse Effect to the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation ("PBGC") or any employee benefit plan on account of any failure to
----
meet the contribution requirements of any such plan, minimum funding
requirements or prohibited transactions under ERISA or the Code or termination
of a single employer plan and no event has occurred or conditions exist which
present a material risk that any Affiliated Company will incur any material
liability on account of any of the foregoing circumstances. No Affiliated
Company has received any notice that such Affiliated Company has incurred any
material liability that would have a Material Adverse Effect on account of a
partial or
-12-
complete withdrawal from a multiemployer plan to which any Affiliated Company
make contributions, or the insolvency, reorganization or termination of any such
multiemployer plan. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement will not result in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code
for which an administrative or statutory exemption is not available.

assignment, pledge, lien, security interest, charge, option or other encumbrance
known to the Company except the pledges in favor of the Bank and those set forth
on Schedule 3.15 hereto. There are no outstanding rights, options, warrants or
-------------
agreements for the purchase from, or sale or issuance by, any Subsidiary of any

officers, by any other Person) as (a) a disposal site or permanent storage site
-

Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.16 hereto, all Hazardous Materials
-------------
used or generated by the Company or any Subsidiary or any business merged into
or otherwise acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary have been generated,
accumulated, stored, transported, treated, recycled and/or disposed of in
compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, except for such non-
compliance as has not and could not have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as
set forth on Schedule 3.16 hereto,
-------------
-13-
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any material liabilities
with respect to Hazardous Materials, and, to the best of the Company's
knowledge, no facts or circumstances exist which could give rise to material
liabilities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the
violation (whether by the Company or any Subsidiary or any other Person) of any
Environmental Law and/or Hazardous Materials.

-------------
and discharge promptly as they become due and payable all taxes, assessments and

its property; provided that neither the Company nor such Subsidiary shall be
-------- ----
required to pay any such tax or claim if the amount, applicability or validity
thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
promptly initiated and diligently conducted and if the Company shall have set

purposes of implementing or effectuating the provisions of this Agreement, the
Company Security Documents or the Company Revolving Credit Note, or of more
fully perfecting or renewing the Bank's rights with respect to the Company
Collateral pursuant hereto or thereto. Upon the exercise by the Bank of any
power, right, privilege or remedy pursuant to this Agreement or the Company
Security Documents which requires any consent, approval, registration,
qualification or authorization of any other Person, including, without
limitation, any governmental authority or instrumentality, the Company, at its
expense, will execute and deliver, or will cause the execution and delivery of,
all applications, certifications, instruments and other documents and papers
that the Bank may be required to obtain for such consent, approval,
registration, qualification or authorization and will take such other action, or
will cause such other action to be taken, as the Bank may reasonably request in
connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the

----------------------------------------------
cause each Subsidiary to, upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times, permit
any representative designated by the Bank, at the Company's expense, to visit
and inspect its and their properties, to examine and audit its and their books
and records (and to make copies thereof or, if the Company does not supply
copying facilities, to remove any of the same temporarily for the purpose of
making copies thereof) and to discuss its and their affairs, finances and
accounts with, and to be advised as to the same by, its and their employees,
officers and independent certified public accountants, provided, however, that
-------- -------
unless a Company Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Bank shall not be permitted to conduct more than two (2) general inspections
and/or
-20-
audits during any fiscal year of the Company, and provided, further, that the
Bank shall charge the Company for each inspection and/or audit an amount not in
excess of the amount generally charged for such inspections and/or audits by
other commercial banks within the Bank's market area. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, representatives of the Bank shall be allowed (a) to
-
the extent the Bank has knowledge of any potential environmental problem which
could have a Material Adverse Effect and after consultation with the Company, to
perform tests to determine compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws,
and (b) to verify the Accounts Receivables of the Company and its Subsidiaries
-
and to confirm with Account Debtors the validity and amount of all of the
Accounts Receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to notify such
Account Debtors that the Company Collateral has been assigned to the Bank and
that payments are to be made directly to the Bank (in each case on not more than
two (2) occasions during each fiscal year of the Company, unless a Company
Default or a Company Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing).
The Bank agrees that unless a Company Default or a Company Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Bank shall consult with the Company
regarding the timing and content of each communication with Account Debtors
contemplated by this (S)5.8.
------

against and from all damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties,
claims, litigation, demands, defenses, judgments, suits, proceedings, costs,
disbursements or expenses of any kind whatsoever, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and experts' fees and disbursements, which may at any
time (including, without limitation, before or after discharge or foreclosure of
the Bank's mortgages or leasehold mortgages or deeds of trust or any other
instrument now or hereafter constituting a Company Security Document) be imposed
upon, incurred by or asserted or awarded against an Indemnified Party and
arising from or out of: (a) any liability for damage to person or property
-
arising out of any Hazardous Materials released on, upon, under, into or about
any property at any time owned, leased or operated by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, with respect to any condition or
circumstance which existed on any such property prior to or as of the time the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries first acquired, leased or occupied the same)
or (b) any violation of any Environmental Laws by the Company or any of its
-
Affiliates (in the case of any Affiliate of the Company, to the extent any such
liability is in any way related to the Company), or any contractor, sub-
contractor, tenant, occupant or invitee thereof. Notwithstanding any limitation
which otherwise might be imposed by any applicable statute of limitations, any
cause of action which an Indemnified Party may have against the Company under
this (S)5.9 may be brought against the Company at any time within two (2) years
------
following assertion of the claim against the Indemnified Party for which
indemnification or exoneration is sought (it being understood that the foregoing
shall not require the Bank to bring any claim or action within such two (2) year
period if a longer statute applies).
