Section 2. The Loans.

2.1. Loan and Payment Terms.

(a) Revolving Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender agrees to make Advances to Borrowers (jointly and severally) under the Revolving Credit from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount equal to the lesser of (A)(i) the Revolving Credit Borrowing Base minus (ii) the sum of the Revolving Credit Balance then outstanding plus the principal balance of the Term Loan then outstanding, or (B) the Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the limits of Loan Availability, Borrowers may borrow, make repayments and re-borrow pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If at any time the sum of the Revolving Credit Balance then outstanding and the principal balance of the Term Loan then outstanding exceeds the amount equal to the lesser of (A) the Revolving Credit Borrowing Base or (B) the sum of the Revolving Credit Commitment plus the principal balance of the Term Loan then outstanding, then Borrowers shall immediately pay to Lender a sum sufficient to eliminate such excess. Each Borrower shall jointly and severally pay to Lender the entire unpaid Revolving Credit Balance on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Each Borrower shall jointly execute and deliver to Lender the Revolving Credit Note to evidence the Revolving Credit Loan Commitment on the Closing Date.

(b) Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender agrees to make a loan on the Closing Date in respect of Term Loan to each Borrower (jointly and severally) in the amount of the Term Loan Commitment. Lender shall not be obligated to make any further loan to Borrowers under the Term Loan after the Closing Date and no portion of the Term Loan which has been repaid may be reborrowed. Each Borrower shall jointly and severally pay to Lender the principal balance of the Term Loan in monthly installments payable commencing on November 1, 2004 and continuing by the first day of each succeeding month thereafter in the amount of each such installment of $166,666.67 until the earlier of: (i) the date that the Term Loan is paid in full or (ii) the Term Loan Maturity Date. The entire unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall be due in payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date. In addition, Credit Parties shall make certain mandatory prepayments in respect of the Term Loan as provided in Section 3.2.2 hereof. The Term Loan shall

be evidenced by the Term Note, and the Borrowers to which Term Loan is made shall jointly execute and deliver the Term Note to Lender on the Closing Date.

(c) Other Payment Terms. Borrowers shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all Loans with interest and applicable Fees and Expenses in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in this Section 2.1, Exhibit A attached hereto, and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. The amount of each Loan and all payments of principal, interest and Fees and Expenses due to be received by Lender shall be recorded in the books and records of Lender, which books and records shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding balance and/or other information related to the Loans. Upon the Termination Date, Lender's obligations to make Advances under the Revolving Credit shall terminate, and Credit Parties shall pay to Lender all Obligations then owed, including, without limitation, all outstanding principal, accrued but unpaid interest, and any and all other Fees and Expenses and other amounts then owing in respect of the Revolving Loans and Term Loan.

2.2. Submission of Receivables Information. No less often than once each calendar month (no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day of such month) in respect of the immediately preceding month, Borrower Agent shall submit to Lender receivables and collection information ("Receivables Information") on all Capitated Contract Rights of the Credit Parties and AMVI/Prospect as of the last day of the immediately preceding month. In addition, no less often than once each four-month period (no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day of the first month immediately following such four-month period) in respect of the immediately preceding four-month period, Borrower Agent shall submit the Receivables Information on all Fee-For-Service Receivables of the Credit Parties as of the last day of the immediately preceding four-month period. Submissions of Receivable Information shall be in the format, contain the information and be transmitted to Lender in the manner specified by Lender. Lender may require submissions to be accompanied by a certification of Credit Parties as to the accuracy of the information in a format substantially similar to that shown in Exhibit B.

2.3. Requests For Advances. Each request by Borrowers for an Advance under the Revolving Credit (each an "Advance Request") must be in writing in a form and format substantially similar to Exhibit B and signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower Agent. Each Advance Request shall be received by Lender no later than 10:30 a.m. applicable Pacific Time at least one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed funding date. Each Advance Request shall specify, the amount of the requested Advance and the proposed funding date (which shall be a Business Day). Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Advance Request, each Advance will be made by wire transfer to Borrower Agent's Operating Account for distribution by Borrower Agent to the applicable Borrower. Any change in the Borrower Agent's wire transfer instructions or designation of a Person to receive proceeds of any Advance shall be in writing and delivered to Lender at least five (5) Business Days prior to the change's proposed effective date.

2.4. Revolving Credit Borrowing Base Certificate. No less often than once each calendar month (no later than the thirtieth (30th) day of such month), Borrower Agent shall give to Lender an executed Revolving Credit Borrowing Base Certificate in a format substantially similar to Exhibit C ("Revolving Credit Borrowing Base Certificate").

2.5. Excess Collections. If (i) no Revolving Credit Balance is then outstanding, (ii) no other Obligations are then due and owing by Borrowers and (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, Lender agrees to promptly (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after the receipt thereof) cause to be transferred to the Operating Account, or such other deposit account of the Credit Parties as Borrower Agent may designate in writing to Lender, all proceeds of Collections and other cash proceeds of Collateral received by Lender.

2.6. Availability Reserves. The amount of the Revolving Credit available to Borrowers pursuant to the lending formula established herein, subject to the Revolving Credit Commitment amount and other

applicable limits hereunder, shall be further subject to Lender's continuing right to establish and revise Availability Reserves in Lender's reasonable discretion.

2.7. Interest on Loans. All Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made until paid in full at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to the rate applicable to such Loan as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. Interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month for the preceding month. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days, and for the actual number of days elapsed. At least once each calendar month, Lender shall cause a report (the "Interest Statement") to be delivered to Borrower Agent in a format substantially similar to the sample attached hereto as Exhibit E, setting forth a calculation of interest accrued with respect to the Loans for the prior period. Absent manifest error, the calculations set forth on the Interest Statement shall be conclusively deemed correct.

2.8. Fees and Expenses. In consideration of Lender making the credit facilities described herein available to Borrowers, Credit Parties shall pay to Lender the additional Fees and Expenses described in Section 12, Exhibit A and any other provisions herein and in the other Loan Documents. Such Fees and Expenses shall be payable in the amounts and at the times described in Exhibit A and the other provisions of the Loan Documents.

2.9. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans on the Closing Date shall be used solely to fund the Refinancing and pay costs and expenses associated with the Related Transactions that are approved by Lender. The proceeds of Loans after the Closing Date may be used solely for Borrowers' ordinary working capital and general corporate needs, in each case, to the extent not otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no portion of the Loans shall be used for personal, private, consumer or any other non-business use. Further, Credit Parties agree not to use proceeds of the Loans: (i) for any Acquisition; (ii) to redeem, retire or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any shares of its Stock or other equity interests; (iii) to declare or pay any cash dividend, except as authorized in Section 9.9; or (iv) to make any other distribution of any property or cash to owners of an equity interest in their capacity as such, without the prior written consent of Lender.

2.10. Appointment of Borrower Agent. Each of Borrowers and Credit Parties hereby irrevocably designates and authorizes PMG to act as its agent generally for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (PMG, in such capacity, is referred to herein as the "Borrower Agent"). PMG hereby accepts such appointment. Each Borrower and Credit Party, as applicable, agrees (a) that Borrower Agent may exercise any right, or perform any obligation, specified by this Agreement on such Borrower's or Credit Party's behalf, (b) that all documents and instruments executed by the Borrower Agent on such Borrower's or Credit Party's behalf will jointly and severally bind such Borrower and/or Credit Party, as applicable, and (c) to be bound by any communication or request delivered by the Borrower Agent to Lender or its agents. Each Borrower and Credit Party, as applicable, grants to Borrower Agent a power of attorney to act on its behalf as provided herein, including without limitation, with respect to executing lockbox agreements and other documents and instruments, requesting Loans hereunder, and providing notices, reports, certificates and statements to, and receiving the same from, Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. This appointment as attorney-in-fact is durable and irrevocable as long as any Obligations are outstanding, and will not be affected by any disability or incapacity of any Borrower or Credit Party or any of its employees, agent or representatives, or the lapse of time. The Lender shall be entitled to rely on any such communication or request delivered by the Borrower Agent. All Loan proceeds received by the Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower shall be deemed received by such Borrower. At the option of each Borrower, Borrower Agent shall be authorized to disburse all or any portion of such Loan proceeds on behalf of such Borrower and each such disbursement or payment shall be deemed to be a disbursement or payment of such funds by or on behalf of such Borrower.

Section 3. Repayment of the Loans.

3.1. Payment of Interest, Fees and Expenses, etc. Lender may, in its sole discretion, effect payment by Borrowers of any and all interest, Fees and Expenses, and other Obligations due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents by making an Advance in the amount due on and as of the date any such payment is due, and by sending Borrower Agent and/or Borrowers prior written advice thereof. At Lender's option, Lender may notify Borrower Agent and/or Borrowers that Lender will not treat a required payment or other amount as an Advance as provided above, in which case (i) Lender shall deliver to Borrower Agent and/or Borrowers an invoice for such amounts due, and (ii) the entire amount due as set forth in the applicable invoice shall be due and payable, in cash, within two (2) Business Days from the date of invoice. The amount of any interest, Fees and Expenses or other Obligations reflected in any advice or invoice delivered by Lender to Borrower Agent and/or Borrowers pursuant hereto shall be considered correct and binding on Borrowers unless within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by Borrower Agent and/or Borrowers of any such advice or invoice from Lender, Borrower Agent and/or Borrowers shall notify Lender of any discrepancy in writing, setting forth a calculation of the amount Borrower Agent and/or Borrowers assert is in error. Lender shall be under no obligation to make an Advance pursuant to this Section 3.1 if, as of the date of such Advance, all of the conditions stated in Section 4 hereof have not been satisfied. Lender's election to make an Advance under this Section 3.1 at a time when all such conditions have not been satisfied shall not be deemed a waiver of Lender's rights hereunder to refuse to make any such Advance in the future under the same or similar circumstances.

3.2. Prepayments.

3.2.1 Voluntary Prepayments. Borrowers may at any time on at least five (5) days' prior written notice by Borrower Agent to Lender voluntarily prepay all or part of the Term Loan; provided that any such prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $250,000 in excess of such amount. In addition, Borrowers may at any time on at least ninety (90) days' prior written notice by Borrower Agent to Lender terminate the Revolving Loan Commitment; provided that upon such termination, all Loans and other Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full. Any voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan in full and any such termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment must be accompanied by the payment of any applicable Early Termination Fee required by Exhibit A. Upon any such prepayment and termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment, each Borrower's right to request Advances shall simultaneously be terminated. Any partial prepayments of the Term Loan shall be ratably applied to prepay the scheduled installments of the Term Loan in inverse order of maturity except in connection with the payment in full of all Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

3.2.2 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) If at any time the sum of the Revolving Credit Balance and the principal balance of the Term Loan exceeds the amount equal to the lesser of (A) the Revolving Credit Borrowing Base or (B) the sum of the Revolving Credit Commitment plus the principal balance of the Term Loan then outstanding, Credit Parties shall immediately pay such excess to Lender for application as follows: first, to payment of principal in respect of the Revolving Credit until all Obligations in respect of the Revolving Credit have been repaid in full; and second to the ratable payment of principal in respect of the Term Loan in inverse order of maturity until all Obligations in respect of Term Loan have been repaid in full; provided that if any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time any payment shall be due or payable pursuant to this section, all proceeds of any such payment shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof.

(b) If any Credit Party issues Stock, no later than the Business Day following the date of receipt of the proceeds thereof, the Credit Parties shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal

to all such proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs paid to non-Affiliates in connection therewith. Any prepayments required to be paid pursuant to this section shall be applied first, to the ratable payment of principal in respect of the Term Loan in inverse order of maturity until all Obligations in respect of Term Loan have been repaid in full and second to payment of principal in respect of the Revolving Credit until all Obligations in respect of the Revolving Credit have been repaid in full; provided that if any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time any payment shall be due or payable pursuant to this section, all proceeds of any such payment shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, proceeds of (i) Stock issuances to employees, contractors, consultants, or directors of Holdings and its Subsidiaries pursuant to (A) options issued to such employees, contractors, consultants, or directors pursuant to the Prospect Medical Holdings, Inc. 1998 Stock Option Plan, as the Prospect Medical Holdings, Inc. 1998 Stock Option Plan may be amended from time to time to increase the number of options for such employees, contractors, consultants or directors or to comply with tax laws, securities laws or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange to which Holdings may be listed, (B) options issued to such employees, contractors, consultants, or directors outside of the Prospect Medical Holdings, Inc. 1998 Stock Option Plan on or before the Closing Date, as such options are described in paragraph 1 of Schedule 3.3.2(b) hereto or (C) Stock issuances to employees or directors of Holdings and its Subsidiaries pursuant to any other restricted stock, stock option, or stock appreciation plan or agreement entered into after the Closing Date disclosed in writing to, and deemed acceptable by Lender in its reasonable discretion and (ii) Stock issuances pursuant to any conversion or exchange or exercise of similar right with respect to any previously issued Stock described in paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 on Schedule 3.2.2(b) hereto, shall not be subject to mandatory prepayment under this section.

(c) Not later than the Business Day following the receipt of any net cash proceeds of any Asset Sale by a Credit Party (other than net cash proceeds of any Asset Sale in an aggregate amount not in excess of $100,000 during any fiscal year), such Credit Party shall apply an amount equal to 100% of such net cash proceeds to make prepayments in respect of the Loans. Any prepayments required to be paid pursuant to this section shall be applied first, to payment of principal in respect of the Term Loan in inverse order of maturity until all Obligations in respect of Term Loan have been repaid in full; and second, to payment in respect of the Revolving Credit until all Obligations in respect of the Revolving Credit have been repaid in full; provided that if any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time any payment shall be due or payable hereunder, all proceeds of any such payment shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof.

(d) Subject to the terms of Section 9.4 hereof not later than three (3) Business Days following the receipt of any net cash proceeds from a Casualty Event, the Credit Parties shall apply an amount equal to 100% of such net cash proceeds not otherwise permitted by Section 9.4 to be used to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral to make prepayments in respect of the Loans. Any prepayments required to be paid pursuant to this section shall be applied first, to payment of principal in respect of the Term Loan in inverse order of maturity until all Obligations in respect of the Term Loan have been repaid in full; and second, to payment in respect of the Revolving Credit until all Obligations in respect of the Revolving Credit have been repaid in full; provided that if any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time any payment shall be due or payable hereunder, all proceeds of any such payment shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof.

3.3. Application of Payments. Subject to Section 2.5, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Termination Date shall not have occurred and except for

voluntary prepayments permitted pursuant to Section 3.2.1 which shall be applied in accordance with such section and mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 3.2.2 which shall be applied in accordance with such section, all Collections and other payments (including all monetary proceeds of Collateral) received shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order:

(a) to the payment of, or the reimbursement of the Lender for or in respect of all Fees and Expenses, costs, disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or sustained by the Lender and are then due and owing in connection with the collection of such monies, or for the administration, exercise, protection or enforcement by the Lender of any of the rights, remedies, duties or powers of the Lender hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents;

(b) to the payment of any and all other accrued Fees and Expenses then due and owing hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents;

(c) to interest on the Revolving Loans and Term Loan then due and owing, ratably in proportion to the interest accrued as to each such Loan;

(d) to principal payments on the Term Loan then due and owing;

(e) to payment of the Revolving Loans then outstanding; and

(f) to all other Obligations which may be then due and owing.

While any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and remain continuing or at all times from and after the Termination Date, all Collections and other payments (including monetary proceeds of Collateral or of realizations upon any Collateral) received shall be applied to the Obligations in such order as Lender may elect in its sole discretion.

3.4. Termination of the Revolving Credit. Borrowers may prepay the Revolving Credit Balance in full and terminate the Revolving Credit prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date upon ninety (90) days' prior written notice by Borrower Agent to Lender, provided, that all Obligations have been fully performed and paid in full, in cash simultaneously with such termination. The Borrowers acknowledge that any termination of the Revolving Credit prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the simultaneous full performance and repayment of all Obligations would result in loss by Lender of benefits under this Agreement and that damages incurred as a result of such credit facility termination would be difficult and impracticable to ascertain. Therefore, in the event that the Revolving Credit is terminated on account of any action or inaction by Borrowers or actions and inactions constituting Events of Default, Borrowers shall pay to Lender the Early Termination Fee as set forth in Exhibit A.

3.5. No Offset, Taxes, etc. All payments by Credit Parties hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim. In addition, any and payments by Credit Parties hereunder (including any payments made pursuant to Section 12 or 15) or under the Notes shall be made, in accordance with this section, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any Credit Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder (including any sum payable pursuant to Section 12 or 15) or under the Notes, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as much as shall be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this section) Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Credit Party shall make such deductions, and (iii) such Credit Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, Credit Party Agent shall furnish to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. Each Credit Party shall jointly and severally indemnify and, within ten (10) days of demand therefor, pay Lender for the full amount of Taxes (including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this

section) paid by Lender, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.

In addition, on the Closing Date, Credit Parties shall deliver to Lender a master Obligor Notice, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, in respect of all of their Obligors obligated under Fee-For-Service Receivables which are Governmental Receivables and a master Obligor Notice, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, in respect of all of their Obligors obligated under Fee-For-Service Receivables which are not Governmental Receivables, a copy of which Obligor Notice specifying the applicable Obligor's information, Lender may deliver to the applicable Obligors on or after an Event of Default has occurred, and each of which master Obligor Notice, among other things, shall direct such Obligor to make payments of Collections directly to an applicable Lockbox (or in the case of payments by wire transfer, the applicable Lockbox Account), and mail all RA/EOBs directly to the applicable Lockbox, and each of which master Obligor Notice shall attach a schedule listing all of the applicable Obligors as of the date reasonably proximate to the Closing Date, which schedules shall be updated pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.5(b)(xvi). No such direction given by Credit Parties to any Obligor shall be changed, modified or superceded without the express prior written consent of Lender. Credit Parties shall cause all billing and claim forms sent to Obligors (and return envelopes, if any, furnished by Credit Parties) to set forth only the applicable Lockbox as the address for payment of Receivables and, in the case of Fee-For-Services Receivables, delivery of the related RA/EOBs, and only the applicable Lockbox Account as the bank account for receipt of wire transfers for payment of Receivables; provided that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and Lender shall have

requested Credit Parties to do so, the Credit Parties not be required to direct Obligors of Fee-For-Service Receivables to remit payments and RA/EOBs only to a Lockbox or Lockbox Account. If a payment on a Receivable is made by an Obligor other than to the appropriate Lockbox and Lockbox Account, Credit Parties shall (x) remit such payment to the Lockbox Account on the same day of the receipt thereof, if possible, but in any event no later than the Business Day immediately following the day of the receipt thereof, and (y) promptly take all necessary actions to effect collection of such proceeds from the Person having possession thereof, if other than a Credit Party.

(b) The Credit Parties shall cooperate with Lender in the identification of items received in the Lockboxes and amounts deposited in the Lockbox Accounts and reconciliation thereof.

5.3. No Liability. Lender shall not be liable to Credit Parties or any other Person for any error or mistake in an Interest Statement, Revolving Credit Borrowing Base Certificate, or in any other report or information provided hereunder, caused directly or indirectly, by failure of any Credit Party, its officers, agents or employees, or (if applicable) any Servicing Agent, to perform its or their duties and obligations under this Agreement.

The appointment of a Servicing Agent by Lender shall be effective fifteen (15) days after (i) delivery by Lender to Borrower Agent and/or the Credit Parties of written notice of Lender's election to exercise such right and detailing the specific matters relating to Credit Parties' administration of Receivables giving rise to Lender's election so to appoint a Servicing Agent, and (ii) Credit Parties' opportunity during such fifteen (15) day period to cure or address to Lender's satisfaction all such matters.

Servicing costs shall include the allocable costs and expenses of the employees of Lender incurred in connection with acting as Servicing Agent hereunder.

7.6. Special Representations and Covenants Regarding Receivables. Upon (i) each submission of Receivables Information to Lender, and (ii) the making of each Advance, Credit Parties shall conclusively be deemed to have represented and warranted to, and covenanted with, Lender that, except as specifically disclosed in writing to the Lender:

(a) No amount included as part of any Receivable represents or constitutes an amount as to which the related Obligor has made a payment in whole or in part or which is or was included in or represented by any other Receivables reported to Lender by Credit Parties.

(b) Each Fee-For-Service Receivable has been billed to the applicable Obligor, and all documentation and information necessary or required for payment thereof has been submitted to the applicable Obligor, and each Credit Party has fulfilled, and will continue to fulfill, all of its other obligations in respect thereof, including verification of the eligibility of such Fee-For-Service Receivable for payment by such Obligor. The documentation submitted by each Credit Party is sufficient such that each Fee-For-Service Receivable constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor, enforceable against such Obligor, except as enforceability may be limited pursuant to an Insolvency Proceeding or equitable principles affecting the rights of creditors generally, and except for statutory or contractual rights of Offset in favor of such Obligor. The applicable Credit Party or Credit Parties have not committed any breach or default, by either action or inaction, that would permit an Obligor to decline to pay any Fee-For-Service Receivable.

(c) Each Credit Party has made or caused to be made, and will make and cause to be made, all payments to each Obligor necessary to prevent such Obligor from exercising rights of Offset with respect to any prior overpayment to Credit Parties any Affiliate. Except as previously disclosed in writing to Lender, no Credit Party is a party to any unresolved disputes with any Obligor with respect to any Receivables the resolution of which dispute may result in the applicable Obligor reducing the amount payable on account of any Receivables on which it is the Obligor. No Receivables have been or will be compromised, adjusted, extended, satisfied, subordinated, rescinded, set off or modified, and no Receivables are or will be subject to compromise, adjustment, extension, satisfaction, subordination, rescission, set off, counterclaim, defense or modification, whether arising out of transactions concerning the contract or otherwise except as provided in Section 7.6(h). Credit Parties shall immediately notify Lender of any action, proceeding, dispute, Offset, deduction, defense or counterclaim that is or may be asserted by any Obligor relating to any Receivables in an amount exceeding $25,000 in the aggregate (other than adjustments, offsets and deductions in respect of Capitated Contract Rights occurring in the ordinary course of Credit Parties' and AMVI/Prospect's business for retroactive additions and/or

deletions of patients covered by Capitated Contracts which are made within two months of the date the corresponding additions and/or deletions have occurred).

(d) [Intentionally omitted].

(e) All Receivables and underlying contracts (including, without limitation, Capitation Contracts) and all transactions underlying all Receivables, including those involving the rendering services or the sale of goods, comply with all Requirements of Law, and all submissions of claims to Obligors regarding Receivables are and shall be genuine and in all respects what they purport to be. Each Receivable is (i) based on an actual and bona fide rendition of healthcare services, or the furnishing of healthcare goods or medical equipment, to a patient or customer by a Credit Party or an Affiliate in the ordinary course of business, or is due under an effective Capitation Contract, (ii) denominated and payable only in lawful currency of the United States, and (iii) an "account" or an interest or claim in or under a policy of insurance, and is not evidenced by any "instrument" or "chattel paper" within the meaning of the UCC, except to the extent that causing such Receivable to be evidenced by such an instrument is required for the collection of such Receivable or for the enforcement of any rights therein and, in such case, only one counterpart of any such instrument will be manually signed and such manually signed counterpart will be promptly delivered to Lender and endorsed to Lender or its designee if so requested by Lender.

(f) The goods and services provided and reflected by each Fee-For-Services Receivables, or the medical equipment provided in conjunction therewith, were medically necessary, and the patient has received such goods, services or medical equipment.

(g) (i) No credit, discount, or extension, or agreement therefor has been or will be granted on any Fee-For-Service Receivable, except for such items reported to Lender in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) any copy of an invoice delivered to Lender by Credit Parties will be a genuine copy of the original invoice sent to the Obligor named therein; and (iii) if the fees charged for the services constituting the basis for any Fee-For-Service Receivable were subject to limitations imposed by contracts for reimbursement from the related Obligor, each such Fee-For-Service Receivable for which the fees are so restricted has been clearly identified to Lender as being subject to such restriction.

(h) Credit Parties have not and shall not re-date any invoice or render services on extended dating beyond that customary in Credit Parties' business, or extend or modify the payment terms of any Fee-For-Service Receivable. If any Credit Party obtains Knowledge of any matter that, in such Credit Party's commercially reasonable judgment, may materially affect the collectibility of any Fee-For-Service Receivable, including information regarding the applicable Obligor's creditworthiness, Credit Parties will promptly so advise Lender in writing. Credit Parties shall notify Lender promptly of all material disputes and claims with the Obligor of any Fee-For-Service Receivable and settle or adjust the same in a commercially reasonable manner, or contest such disputes or claims at no expense to Lender; but no material discount, credit or allowance shall be granted to any Obligor in respect of any such dispute or claim without Lender's consent, except, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, for discounts, credits and allowances made or given in the ordinary course of Credit Parties' business.

(i) Credit Parties shall not accept any note or other instrument (except a check or other instrument for the immediate payment of money) with respect to any Receivable, other than with respect to a Receivable on which the Obligor is a natural person, without Lender's prior written consent. If Lender consents to the acceptance of any such instrument, it shall be considered as evidence of the Receivable and not payment thereof and Credit Parties will promptly deliver such instrument to Lender appropriately endorsed, regardless of the form of presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest with respect thereto.

9.4. Insurance.

(a) Credit Parties shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, keep the Collateral insured with financially sound and reputable insurers against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, and all other hazards and risks, and in such amounts, as are ordinarily insured against by other owners in similar businesses. Credit Parties shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, maintain business interruption, professional liability, workers' compensation, public liability, and other property damage insurance relating to Credit Parties' ownership and use of the Collateral, as well as insurance against larceny, embezzlement, and criminal misappropriation. All policies or insurance shall be in such form, with such companies, and in such amounts as may be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, and within fifteen (15) days of any date when any additional or replacement insurance coverage is obtained or any such policy is renewed (and in any event no less frequently than annually), Credit Parties shall deliver to Lender true copies of certificates of insurance with respect to such policies or additional insurance or replacement policies, which certificates (i) in the case of property and casualty policies, shall contain an endorsement or rider satisfactory to Lender showing Lender as loss payee and additional insured thereof, and (ii) in the case of general liability policies, shall contain an endorsement or rider showing the Lender as an additional insured. Every policy of insurance referred to in this Section 9.4 shall contain an

agreement by the insurer that it will not cancel such policy except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lender and Credit Parties will use their best efforts to obtain an undertaking from the insurer that any loss payable thereunder shall be payable notwithstanding any act or negligence of any Credit Party or Lender that might, absent such agreement, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such insurance payment and notwithstanding occupancy or use of the real property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of such policy. Credit Parties shall deliver to Lender, within five (5) Business Days of any request by Lender, certified copies of such policies of insurance and evidence of the payment of all premiums therefor.

All insurance proceeds that are to be made available to any Credit Party to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral shall be applied by Lender to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan (which application shall not result in a permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment) and upon such application, Lender shall establish a Availability Reserve against the Revolving Credit Borrowing Base in an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds so applied.

To the extent not used to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral, such insurance proceeds shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.2.2(d); provided that the Lender, in the sole option of the Lender, may establish and maintain a permanent Availability Reserve in respect of such insurance proceeds so applied less any decrease in the Revolving Credit Borrowing Base occasioned by such loss.

Lender may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. If Lender sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Credit Parties will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Lender and applied to the Obligations. In the event that a purchaser fails to pay for any item of Collateral, Lender may resell such item, and Credit Parties will be credited with the proceeds of the sale. Lender will have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Credit Parties, or against or in payment of any of the Obligations. Lender may apply the cash proceeds of Collateral actually received by Lender from any sale, lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations, in whole or in part and in such order as Lender may elect, whether or not then due. Credit Parties shall remain liable to Lender for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of collection or enforcement, including attorneys' fees and legal expenses. Credit Parties shall pay immediately any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral by Lender. Any excess, after payment of all of the Obligations (including any foreclosure costs and other costs of collection), will be returned, without interest and subject to the rights of third Persons, by Lender to the applicable Credit Party or any other person as required by law. The sending of notice by facsimile transmission or by ordinary mail, postage prepaid, to Credit Parties' address set forth herein of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made, shall be deemed reasonable notice thereof if such notice is sent ten (10) days before the date of such sale or other disposition may occur, provided, that Lender may provide Credit Parties shorter notice of no notice, to the extent permitted by applicable laws.

11.4. Remedies Cumulative. Credit Parties irrevocably agree that the Lender's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements and under applicable law shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, successively or concurrently on any one or more occasions with such other rights as Lender may have. Lender shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, by other applicable law, or in equity. All rights and remedies of Lender may be exercised from time to time as to all or any part of the Collateral as Lender may, in its discretion, determine. No exercise by Lender of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Lender of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. If any Credit Party fails to perform any of its Obligations under this Agreement, Lender may, but shall not be required to,

cause the performance of such Obligations, and all costs and expenses of Lender in connection therewith shall be paid promptly by Credit Parties as Fees and Expenses hereunder or, in Lender's discretion, charged to the Revolving Credit Balance hereunder.

11.5. Waivers. No waiver by Lender of its rights and remedies shall be effective unless the waiver is in writing and signed by Lender. A waiver by Lender of any right or remedy on one occasion shall not be deemed a waiver of such right or remedy on any subsequent occasion. An Advance to any Borrower during the continuation of an Event of Default shall not obligate Lender to make any subsequent Advances during the continuation of such or any other Event of Default. Lender will have no obligation to make any Advance after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date regardless of whether any Event of Default has occurred.

Section 12. Costs and Expenses.

12.1. Payment of Fees and Expenses. Credit Parties agree to pay to Lender upon demand:

(a) the reasonable costs and expenses of Lender incurred in connection with the administration of the credit facilities provided by this agreement, including in connection with electronic interfacing, periodic auditing, Collateral monitoring, and modifying and amending this Agreement and any other Loan Documents;

(b) any taxes (including interest and penalties in respect thereto) payable by the Lender (other than taxes based upon Lender's net income or profits) on or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(c) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the Lender's counsel and any local counsel to the Lender incurred in connection with the preparation, administration or interpretation of the Loan Documents and other instruments mentioned herein, the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby, and amendments, modifications, approvals, consents or waivers hereto or hereunder;

(f) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, which attorneys may be employees of the Lender, and reasonable consulting, accounting, appraisal, investment banking and similar professional fees and charges) incurred by the Lender in connection with (i) the enforcement of or preservation of rights under any of the Loan Documents against Credit Parties or the administration thereof after the occurrence of an Event of Default or Default, and (ii) any litigation, proceeding or dispute whether arising hereunder or otherwise, in any way related to the Lender's relationship with Credit Parties or any of its Affiliates except for any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Lender, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final order no longer subject to appeal; and

(g) all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the Lender incurred in connection with UCC or title searches, UCC filings or mortgage recordings. All such costs and expenses shall constitute Obligations hereunder secured by the Lender's Liens in the Collateral. The covenants of this Section 12.1 shall survive payment and satisfaction of the Obligations.

12.2. Deposit on Termination of Credit Facilities. In the event of the payment in full of the Obligations and termination by Credit Parties of the credit facilities established hereunder, Lender may,

in its discretion, require any Credit Party to deposit with Lender a reasonable amount in order to cover any and all reasonable costs and expenses which may be incurred by Lender in connection with terminating the credit facilities and Lender's security interests in the Collateral. Upon the final payment in full of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification obligations) and termination of the credit facilities hereunder, Lender shall take all actions and execute all documents reasonably required to terminate this Agreement and any and all Liens of Lender in the Collateral, and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender may be deducted from such deposit, with any remaining balance to be returned by Lender to Credit Parties no later than thirty (30) days after the final payment in full of the Obligations.

Section 13. Indemnification. Each Credit Party shall indemnify and hold Lender and its agents, attorneys, employees, officers, directors, Affiliates, successors and assigns (the Indemnified Parties) harmless from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses of every nature and character arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby including, without limitation:

(a) actual or proposed use by Credit Parties of the proceeds of any of the Loans;

(b) reliance on any representation or warranty made by Credit Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or any Loan Document, any information or report delivered by or on behalf of Credit Parties, their actions or failures to act which shall have been false or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made;

(c) the failure by any Credit Party to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to any Receivables or the related contracts, or the nonconformity of any Receivables or the related contracts with any such applicable law, rule or regulation;

(d) the failure to vest and maintain vested in Lender or its assigns a valid first priority security interest in the Receivables together with all Collections related thereto or any equipment or real property;

(e) any and all disputes, claims, Offsets or defenses of any Obligor to the payment of any Receivables;

(f) any claims, costs or expenses incurred by Lender or any Lockbox Bank as a result of any Person asserting that this Agreement or any Loan Document, or the performance by any Credit Party of its or their respective duties and obligations hereunder or thereunder, including but not limited to the grants of security pursuant hereto, violate or contravene the terms, provisions or conditions of any agreement by and between any Credit Party and such Person or any provisions of law;

(g) any violation with respect to any Credit Party or any Affiliate or any of their respective properties of any Environmental Law, or the presence, disposal, escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, discharge, emission, release or threatened release of any Hazardous Substances (including, but not limited to, claims with respect to wrongful death, personal injury or damage to property); or

(h) failure of any Credit Party to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents;

in each case, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other professionals and allocated costs of internal counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding or matter; provided, however, that Credit Parties shall have no obligation to the Indemnified Parties with respect to amounts resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Indemnified Parties to which such indemnified amounts would otherwise be due. Any indemnified amounts due hereunder may be added to the other Obligations owed to Lender by Credit Parties and if not otherwise paid, shall be payable upon demand therefore, together

with interest at the rate of 18% APR, or the highest rate allowed by law if less than 18%, from the date of such demand to the date of payment of the indemnified amounts. The provisions of this Section 13 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Credit Parties agree that Lender or any transferee may enforce all rights of Lender and all Obligations, and that Lender or any such transferee shall have the right to institute proceedings against any Credit Party in the name of Lender. If any Credit Party fails to perform any of its Obligations under this Agreement, Lender may, but shall not be required to, cause the performance of such Obligations, and all costs and expenses of Lender in connection therewith shall be paid promptly by Credit Parties as Fees and Expenses hereunder or, in Lender's discretion, charged to the Revolving Credit Balance hereunder. Each Credit Party waives and will not assert against any assignee or other transferee of Lender any claims, defenses, or setoffs that such Credit Party could assert against Lender except defenses that cannot be waived.

14.3. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall, as to such jurisdiction, affect only such clause or provision without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

14.4. Choice of Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of California without regard to principles of conflicts of laws, except to the extent that the perfection or the effect of perfection or nonperfection of Lender's security interest in each item of Collateral are governed by laws of a jurisdiction other than the State of California.

14.5. Waiver of Jury Trial; Consent to Jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE COURTS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND OF THE FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CITY OF LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN ANY SUCH LITIGATION, EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS AND AGREES THAT SERVICE THEREOF MAY BE MADE ON SUCH PARTY BY CERTIFIED U.S. FIRST CLASS MAIL, AND OTHERWISE IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS, POSTAGE PREPAID, ADDRESSED TO THE PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN SECTION 14.1.

14.6. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of copies on the same or separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original instrument and each of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.

14.7. Entire Agreement. This Agreement evidences the entire understanding and agreement of the parties concerning the subject matter contained herein and with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. No modifications to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be valid or effective unless the same is in writing and signed by the party against whom or which enforcement is sought.

14.8. Press Releases. Lender may make press releases or other public disclosures or statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with Credit Parties' prior written consent as to the content of such press release, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Each Credit Party and Affiliates knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waive the right that any of them may have to seek punitive, consequential, special, or indirect damages from Lender and any of Lender's Affiliates, officers, directors, or employees or any of their successors or assigns with respect to any action, proceeding, or claim with respect to any matter arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, other than for any acts or omissions which constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct by Lender and any of Lender's Affiliates.

14.10. Headings. All of the Appendices, Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference. Any headings and captions used in this Agreement and the Appendices, Schedules, Addendums and Exhibits hereto are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation thereof.

14.11. Confidentiality. Lender agrees to keep confidential any non-public information delivered pursuant to the Loan Documents and identified as such by Credit Parties (such information, other than that expressly excluded below, herein "Confidential Information") and not to disclose such information to Persons other than to potential assignees or participants or to any Affiliate of, or Persons employed by or engaged, by Lender or any of its respective Affiliates or Lender's assignees or participants including attorneys, auditors, professional consultants, rating agencies, insurance industry associations and portfolio management services (collectively, "Lender Representatives") and only if such Lender Representatives have either a duty to maintain the confidentiality of such information or have executed a confidentiality agreement obligating them by contract to keep the information confidential. The scope of information deemed included in Confidential Information and the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section shall not apply to disclosures (i) consisting of information (a) in possession of Lender or its Representatives prior to disclosure by the Credit Parties, (b) made available to Lender from a source that, to the knowledge of Lender, is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with any Credit Party prohibiting such disclosure or (c) developed or derived by Lender or its Representatives without the aid, application or use of non-public confidential information provided by Credit Parties, (ii) in connection with the exercise of any remedy from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default or (iii) consisting of general portfolio information that does not specifically identify the Credit Parties. Lender may provide to industry trade organizations information with respect to the credit facility provided by this Agreement that is necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements provided that Confidential Information may not be provided to any industry trade organization unless such information does not specifically identify the Credit Parties. Lender may also disclose Confidential Information to the extent required to be made by Lender to any regulatory or governmental agency or pursuant to law, rule, regulations or legal proceeding; provided that if in the context of any legal proceeding, Lender becomes legally compelled to disclose any of the Confidential Information, Lender will provide to the Borrower Agent prompt written notice so that the applicable Credit Parties may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement; provided that, pending the actions of such Credit Party, nothing shall prevent Lender from disclosing the Confidential Information if it is required to do so by the legal proceedings. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or that the Credit Parties waive compliance with the terms of this Section, Lender will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which, upon the advice of its counsel, is legally required to be disclosed by law or legal process. The obligations of Lender under this Section shall supersede and replace the obligations of Lender under any confidentiality agreement in respect of this financing executed and delivered by Lender prior to the date hereof.

Section 15. CROSS-GUARANTY

15.1. Cross-Guaranty. Each Credit Party hereby agrees that such Credit Party is jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Lender and its successors and assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Lender by each other Credit Party. Each Credit Party agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that its obligations under this Section 15 shall not be discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations has occurred, and that its obligations under this Section 15 shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by,

(a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Credit Party is or may become a party;

(b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 15) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Lender with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

(c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its Lien against, any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);

(d) the insolvency of any Credit Party; or

(e) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

Each Credit Party shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Obligations guaranteed hereunder.

15.2. Waivers by Credit Parties

(a) Each Credit Party expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Lender to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Credit Party, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Credit Party.

(b) To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Credit Party, in its capacity as a Guarantor hereunder or a surety as a result of joint and several obligations hereunder, hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of: (i) any defense now existing or hereafter arising based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Credit Party or any other Person, or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any other Credit Party or any other Person from any cause other than full payment and performance of all obligations due under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any other Credit Party or any other Person, or any defect in the formation of any other Credit Party or any other Person; (iii) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security or guaranty or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection, or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations; (iv) any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for an Obligation, has destroyed such Credit Party's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise; (v) any defense based upon any failure to disclose to such Credit Party any information concerning the financial condition of any other Credit Party or any other Person or any other circumstances bearing on the ability of any other Credit Party or any other Person to pay and perform all obligations due under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (vi) any failure by Lender to give notice to any Credit Party or any other Person of the sale or other disposition of security, and any defect in notice given by Lender in connection with any such sale or disposition of security; (vii) any failure of Lender to comply with applicable laws in connection with the sale or disposition of security, including, without limitation, any failure by the Lender to conduct a commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of such security; (viii) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal, or that reduces a surety's or guarantor's obligations in proportion to the principal's obligation; (ix) any use of cash

collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code; (x) any defense based upon an election by Lender, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute; (xi) any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; (xii) any right of subrogation, any right to enforce any remedy which Lender may have against any other Credit Party or any other Person and any right to participate in, or benefit from, any security now or hereafter held by Lender for the Obligations; (xiii) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind, including notice of acceptance of this Agreement and of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Obligations; (xiv) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of any other Credit Party or other Person, enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, the liability of any Credit Party hereunder or the enforcement hereof; (xv) all notices of intention to accelerate and/or notice of acceleration of the Obligations; (xvi) relief from any applicable valuation or appraisement laws; (xvii) any other action by Lender, whether authorized by this Agreement or otherwise, or any omission by Lender or other failure of Lender to pursue, or delay in pursuing, any other remedy in its power; (xviii) any and all claims and/or rights of counterclaim, recoupment, setoff or offset; and (xix) any defense based upon the application of the proceeds of a Loan for purposes other than the purposes represented by the Credit Parties or intended or understood by Lender or any Credit Party. Each Credit Party agrees that the payment and performance of all Obligations or any part thereof or other act which tolls any statute of limitations applicable to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall similarly operate to toll the statute of limitations applicable to such Credit Party's liability hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, each Credit Party further waives any and all rights and defenses that such Credit Party may have because the debt of the Credit Parties is secured by real property of other Credit Parties; this means, among other things, that: (1) the Lender may collect from such Credit Party without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any other Credit Party, (2) if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any other Credit Party, then (A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Lender may collect from such Credit Party even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right such Credit Party may have to collect from any other Credit Party. The foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each Credit Party may have because the Obligations are secured by real property of any other Credit Party. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that California Civil Code Section 2856 authorizes and validates waivers of a guarantor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement and waivers of certain other rights and defenses available to a guarantor under California law. Based on the preceding sentence and without limiting the generality of the foregoing waivers contained in this subparagraph or any other provision hereof, each Credit Party expressly waives to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses (except the defense of indefeasible final payment in full), including without limitation any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution (except contribution pursuant to this Agreement), which might otherwise be available to such Credit Party under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433 and under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726 (or any of such sections), or any other jurisdiction to the extent the same are applicable to this Agreement or the agreements, covenants or obligations of any Credit Party hereunder.

It is agreed among each Credit Party and Lender that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Section 15 and such waivers, Lender would decline to enter into this Agreement.

15.3. Benefit of Guaranty. Each Credit Party agrees that the provisions of this Section 15 are for the benefit of Lender and its successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein

contained shall impair, as between any other Credit Party and Lender, the obligations of such other Credit Party under the Loan Documents.

15.4. Waiver of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, and except as set forth in Section 15.7, each Credit Party hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Credit Party's liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Section 15, and that Lender and its successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 15.4.

15.5. Election of Remedies. If Lender may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Credit Party or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Section 15. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to "election of remedies" or the like, each Credit Party hereby consents to such action by Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that each Credit Party might otherwise have had but for such action by Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party shall not impair any other Credit Party's obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee's sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the Loan Documents, Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Lender but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 15, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

15.6. Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each Credit Party's liability under this Section 15 (which liability is in any event in addition to amounts for which such Credit Party is primarily liable under Section 2) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of:

(a) the net amount of all Loans advanced to any other Credit Party under this Agreement and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Credit Party; and

(b) the amount that could be claimed by Lender from such Credit Party under this Section 15 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Credit Party's right of contribution and indemnification from each other Credit Party under Section 15.7.

15.7. Contribution with Respect to Guaranty Obligations.

(a) To the extent that any Credit Party shall make a payment under this Section 15 of all or any of the Obligations (other than Loans made to that Credit Party for which it is primarily liable)

(a "Guarantor Payment") that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Credit Party, exceeds the amount that such Credit Party would otherwise have paid if each Credit Party had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Credit Party's "Allocable Amount" (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Credit Parties as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments, such Credit Party shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Credit Party for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

(b) As of any date of determination, the "Allocable Amount" of any Credit Party shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such Credit Party under this Section 15 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.
