W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and Agreement,
dated as of October 24, 1996 (the "Reorganization Agreement"), by
and among JMED, Abana, and the Principal Holders, Abana is to be
merged (the "Merger") with and into Abana Acquisition Corporation
("AAC," a wholly-owned subsidiary of JMED); and
WHEREAS, the Reorganization Agreement provides that the
obligations of JMED to the transactions contemplated thereby are
subject to the execution and delivery as of the Closing Date (as
defined in the Reorganization Agreement) of this Agreement
providing (i) for indemnification of JMED (and of AAC as the
surviving corporation in the Merger) by the Principal Holders in
respect of certain matters and (ii) for the delivery of certain
shares of the Common Stock of JMED into Escrow to secure such
indemnification and provide for pro-rata participation by the
Principal Holders in accordance with their respective deposits of
such shares; and
WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent is willing to act as escrow agent hereunder;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises,
covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be
legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE ONE: INDEMNIFICATION
Section 1.1 Indemnification
1.1.1 Each Principal Holder jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and
hold JMED harmless from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or
expense (hereinafter, collectively "Claims") suffered by JMED, or by AAC as the
Surviving Corporation under the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization
Agreement, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by JMED
or AAC in the defense of such claims, and arising from:
2
(i) any failure of Abana to observe, perform and discharge its
covenants, agreements and undertakings set forth in the
Reorganization Agreement, including without limitation, those set
forth in Sections 3.4 and 3.5 of the Reorganization Agreement;
(ii) any breach, failure, omission or untruth of the
representations and warranties of Abana and the Principal Holders
with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in
Article VII of the Reorganization Agreement; and
(iii) the amounts, if any, (A) of any claims to entitlement to
business, financial advisory fees or other brokerage fees or
commissions arising in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement on behalf of Abana or
any Principal Holder or (B) by which expenses incurred by or on
behalf of Abana for consulting, legal and accounting fees and cost
reimbursements in connection with the Reorganization Agreement and
the transactions contemplated thereby exceed $75,000, or (C) by
which bonuses paid or payable by Abana to the Principal Holders or
to any other employee exceed the bonus amounts disclosed on
Schedule 3.4 to the Reorganization Agreement;
provided, however, that such indemnification shall be limited as hereinafter
provided.
1.1.2 JMED and each Principal Holder further agree that except as
otherwise agreed in writing between JMED and Abana at or prior to the Closing
Date, any waiver given by JMED to any breach or failure of any covenant or
representation which is a condition to JMED's obligations to the transactions
contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement shall not prevent JMED from
asserting a Claim if such breach or failure is otherwise entitled to
indemnification under the provisions of this Agreement; however, in the event
of a Claim based upon any such breach or failure disclosed in writing to JMED
at or prior to the Closing Date, then in the event that JMED elects to proceed
with Closing, the indemnification to JMED provided for herein shall be limited
to sixty percent (60%) of the aggregate loss, claim, damage or expense
resulting from such breach or failure.
Section 1.2 Limitation as to Maximum Amount of Claim.
The indemnification pursuant to Section 1.1 shall be provided solely from
the assets deposited into and held as the Escrow Fund pursuant to Article Two
of this Agreement and except for the pro-rata beneficial interest of each
Principal Holder in the assets comprising the Escrow Fund, no Principal Holder
shall be directly liable to JMED or AAC as a result of the indemnification
provided herein.
Section 1.3 Limitation as to Minimum Amounts of Certain Claims.
JMED agrees with each Principal Holder that it shall not be entitled to
indemnification in respect of Claims unless the amount of any Claim or Claims
asserted equals or exceeds the following threshold amounts:
2
3
(i) as to Claims arising under clause (i) or clause (iii) of Section
1.1 above and with respect to Claims, if any, from a breach,
failure, omission or misrepresentation of or in the representations
contained in paragraph 7.6 of the Reorganization Agreement, no
minimum or threshold shall be required and JMED shall be entitled
to assert, establish and collect with respect to all such Claims;
and
(ii) as to Claims arising under clause (ii) of Section 1.1 above
other than with respect to Claims arising pursuant to paragraph 7.6
of the Reorganization Agreement, no indemnification shall be
required until the aggregate of all Claims equals $50,000 but if
such aggregate is reached, JMED shall be entitled to
indemnification in respect of all such Claims.
In determining whether the $50,000 threshold established in clause (ii) above
is reached, there shall be excluded Claims under clause (i) above as to which
no threshold applies.
Section 1.4 Limitation in Respect of Time to assert Certain Claims.
1.4.1 Except with respect to Claims arising under paragraph 7.5 of the
Reorganization Agreement, JMED shall not assert Claims for indemnification
hereunder after March 31, 1998. JMED may assert Claims arising under paragraph
7.5 of the Reorganization Agreement until the earlier of (i) thirty (30) days
following the completion of any and all audits of the federal and state tax
returns of Abana for periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date or (ii)
September 15, 1999. Notwithstanding the foregoing, JMED acknowledges that (i)
the preparation, filing and final payment with respect to federal and state
income tax returns of Abana for periods subsequent to December 31, 1995
(collectively, the "Final Returns") will be the responsibility of AAC as the
Surviving Corporation and, therefore, subject to control by JMED and (ii) that
JMED's entitlement to assert any Claim for taxes due in such Final Returns
shall be limited to the amount, if any by which payments or accruals in respect
of such taxes, as reflected on the Abana Interim Statements, are less than the
amount of such payments or accruals which should have been made or reflected as
of September 30, 1996.
1.4.2 JMED agrees that it will not, without the written consent of the
Principal Holders, consent or agree or permit AAC to consent or agree to any
extension or waiver of the statute of limitations with respect to the federal
income tax returns of Abana.
Section 1.5 Notice of All Claims to the Principal Holders.
In addition to notices to the Escrow Agent and to the Principal Holders in
respect of Claims by JMED for indemnification from the Escrow Fund as
hereinafter provided, JMED shall give notice to the Principal Holders in
respect of Claims as to which it is not currently entitled to indemnification
as a result of the thresholds applicable under Section 1.3 above. The amount of
such Claims shall be recorded and applied against the applicable threshold
unless either Principal Holder objects in writing to such Claims within thirty
(30) days, in which event the Claims will be resolved as set forth in Section
2.2 hereof.

Section 1.6 Third-Party Claims; Participation in Defense.
In the case of any Claim which arises as the result of an assertion of a
claim against JMED or AAC by a third party, including without limitation any
government or regulatory body, JMED agrees that the Principal Holders may, at
their expense (subject to reimbursement as provided in Article Two below),
participate in the defense of such third party claim, provided, however, that
unless JMED shall otherwise consent in writing JMED shall have the sole right
to defend, settle or compromise as to any such third party claim which (a)
affects either the reputation or future operations of JMED or AAC or (b) has an
aggregate value exceeding the then value of the Escrow Fund in excess of any
pending asserted Claims. Notwithstanding the right of the Principal Holders to
participate in the defense of certain third party claims, the right to settle
or compromise such claims shall rest solely with the party or parties of record
against whom such claim is asserted by the third party; provided, however, that
(i) no Claim for indemnification hereunder shall exist with respect to the
amount, if any, by which the ultimate cost of such claim (including the defense
thereof) exceeds the sum of the amount of any settlement or compromise thereof
rejected by JMED but accepted by both Principal Holders and by the third party
claimant(s) plus the cost of defense in respect thereof as of the date of such
consent and (ii) in the event that JMED or AAC shall elect to settle or
compromise such third party claim over the objection of the Principal Holders,
JMED shall have the burden in any Claim asserted by it hereunder against the
Principal Holders in establishing that the amount of such settlement was fair
and reasonable in the circumstances.
Section 1.7 JMED Claim to Include Certain Costs and to Reflect Certain
Recoveries.
1.7.1 Subject only to the limitation in Section 1.2 above, the amount of
any indemnification to which JMED is otherwise entitled under this Agreement
shall include, without limitation, its reasonable costs and expenses in
enforcing its rights under this Agreement but only to the extent that it is
entitled to an award or payment in respect of the matter as to which its Claim
relates.
1.7.2 The amount of any loss, claim, damage or liability included by JMED
in any Claim for indemnification hereunder shall be computed net of any net
benefit or recovery (other than the benefit or recovery due from the Principal
Holders hereunder) received or receivable by JMED. Accordingly and without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) any claim arising from the
assertion of additional tax liabilities due from Abana shall be offset to the
extent of any current or future tax deduction or benefit due JMED, adjusted to
reflect, if appropriate, the loss of use of funds pending the realization of
any such future benefit and (ii) any claim or loss which is partially or wholly
offset by insurance recovery shall be reduced by such recover, net of any
increase in future insurance costs arising directly therefrom.

ARTICLE TWO: THE ESCROW
Section 2.1. Establishment of Escrow Fund.
Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, JMED and the
Principal Holders are delivering to the Escrow Agent stock certificates
evidencing 60,000 shares of the Common Stock, par value $0.04 per share of JMED
(the "Xxxxx Stock"), to be registered in the name of Escrow Agent. The Xxxxx
Stock is delivered equally on behalf of the Principal Holders and each
Principal Holder shall have a pro-rata interest in the assets comprising the
Escrow Fund in accordance with such Principal Holder's percentage of the
aggregate shares of the Xxxxx Stock initially deposited to constitute the
Escrow Fund, as the same may be modified due to any "non-pro rata"
distributions to the Principal Holders in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement. The Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges receipt of the
certificate evidencing the Xxxxx Stock.
Section 2.2. Claims Against the Escrow Fund.
2.2.1 Purpose of Escrow. The Escrow Fund shall secure the obligations of
the Principal Holders pursuant to Article One of this Agreement subject to the
release or distribution of the shares constituting the Escrow Fund as provided
in this Agreement.
2.2.2 Notices. If at any time on or before the expiration of the Escrow
Fund as hereinafter provided, JMED shall claim a right to payment pursuant to
Article One of this Agreement, JMED shall notify the Escrow Agent and the
Principal Holders in writing. Such notice shall specify the basis of such
Claim. If such Claim is liquidated in amount, the notice shall so state, and
such amount shall be deemed the amount of the Claim of JMED against the Escrow
Fund. If the amount is not liquidated, then (i) the notice shall so state and
shall state JMED's good faith estimate of the amount of such Claim, and a claim
shall be deemed asserted against the Escrow Fund on behalf of JMED, but no
payment shall be made on account thereof until the amount of such Claim is
liquidated and (ii) promptly after the amount of such unliquidated Claim shall
have become liquidated, JMED shall notify the Escrow Agent and the Principal
Holders in writing of the liquidated amount of such Claim, and such amount
shall be deemed the amount of the claim of JMED against the Escrow Fund. Any
notice of a Claim pursuant to this Section 2.2.2 that states the liquidated
amount of such Claim of JMED against the Escrow Fund shall be referred to
herein as a "Liquidated Claim Notice."
2.2.3 Consent to Validity of Claim. If neither Principal Holder, within
thirty (30) days after the mailing of a Liquidated Claim Notice, advises the
Escrow Agent in writing that he disputes JMED's rights asserted in such notice,
then the Escrow Agent shall pay to JMED, in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.3 of Article Two hereof, the amount of JMED's Claim stated in such
notice. Such payment shall be made promptly after the end of the thirty-day
period mentioned above.
2.2.4 Dispute. If either or both of the Principal Holders shall, within
the thirty-day period referred to in Section 2.2.3 hereof, notify the Escrow
Agent in writing that he or they, as the case may be, dispute JMED's rights
asserted in any Liquidated Claim Notice, then said Principal Holder(s) shall
give written notice to JMED of such dispute. As promptly thereafter as
possible, JMED and the
5
6
Principal Holder(s) shall endeavor to settle and compromise the subject Claim,
or may agree to submit the same to arbitration, and, if unable to agree on any
settlement or compromise or on submission to arbitration, such Claim shall be
settled by litigation or by any other means chosen by the parties jointly or
individually. Upon final determination of the merits of such Claim, JMED and
the Principal Holder(s) shall notify the Escrow Agent (either by means of a
written instrument executed by JMED and the Principal Holder(s), a certified
copy of the arbitration decision, or a certified copy of any court judgment) of
the terms of such determination. Upon receipt of such document (the
"Settlement Document"), the Escrow Agent shall thereupon pay the amount (if
any) indicated in such Settlement Document to JMED in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2.3 of Article Two hereof. Nothing set forth in this
Agreement shall prevent a Principal Holder (without the consent of any other
Principal Holder) from settling all or part of a Claim with respect to his pro
rata share of the Escrow Fund.
2.2.5 No Payment on Claims Unless Threshold Met. Anything to the contrary
in this Agreement notwithstanding, no payment in respect of a Claim shall be
made unless such Claim meets or exceeds the applicable minimum set forth in
Section 1.3 above.
Section 2.3. Payments by Escrow Agent.
2.3.1 Transfer of Cash to JMED. If the Escrow Agent is required to make
any payment to JMED pursuant to this Agreement, then to the extent any cash is
available in the Escrow Fund, any and all payments made to JMED shall first be
made from said cash in the Escrow Fund. If the cash available in the Escrow
Fund shall be insufficient to make such payment in full, then Escrow Shares or
other property shall be transferred to JMED as set forth in Section 2.3.2.
2.3.2 Transfer of Escrow Shares or Other Property to JMED. If there is
insufficient cash in the Escrow Fund to satisfy any payments to JMED required
by Sections 2.2.3 or 2.2.4 hereof, then the Escrow Agent shall make such
payment, or any unpaid balance thereof, by transferring to JMED a portion of
the shares or other securities or property in the Escrow Fund, or any
combination thereof, having a value (determined in accordance with Section
2.3.3 hereof) equal to the dollar amount of such required payment or unpaid
balance thereof.
2.3.3 Valuation of Escrow Shares or Other Property. For purposes of any
transfer pursuant to Section 2.3.2, the value of such shares of the Xxxxx
Stock held in the Escrow Fund shall be an amount equal to the average closing
price per share for the JMED Common Stock as reported by the Nasdaq National
Market quotation system for the ten trading days preceding the date of the
Escrow Agent's payment to JMED. In the event of any exchange listing for JMED
Common Stock, such exchange closing price shall replace the Nasdaq National
Market quotation system.
2.3.4 No Fractional Shares. The number of the shares of the Xxxxx Stock
to be transferred pursuant to Section 2.3 at any time shall not include a
fractional share; JMED may, at its sole option, elect either to waive such
fractional share interest or to purchase the balance of such fractional share
interest based on the value of the JMED Common Stock used in Section 2.3.3
above.

Section 2.4. Rights as to Escrow Shares During Term of This Agreement.
2.4.1 Voting. The Escrow Agent shall exercise all rights and privileges
of election, voting and consent with respect to the shares of Xxxxx Stock and
other securities in the Escrow Fund in accordance with the written instruments,
if any, received by the Escrow Agent from the respective Principal Holders.
2.4.2 Dividends. Any cash dividends paid with respect to the shares the
Xxxxx Stock, and any cash dividends or interest paid with respect to other
securities in the Escrow Fund, shall be paid to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow
Agent shall promptly pay the amount of any such dividends or interest to the
Principal Holders in accordance with their pro-rata interests in the Escrow
Fund as of the date such income is received.
2.4.3 Other Distributions. All other securities or property distributed
from time to time with respect to the assets comprising the Escrow Fund,
including without limitation, any JMED securities issued as a result of any
stock dividend, stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, or
other reorganization, any noncash dividends, and any distributions (either cash
or noncash) in complete or partial liquidation of JMED, shall be deemed to be a
part of the Escrow Fund and shall be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement.
Section 2.5. Distributions from Escrow Fund
2.5.1. First Distribution to Principal Holders. On March 31, 1998, there
shall be released from escrow such portion of the assets then comprising the
Escrow Fund as shall exceed (i) 10,000 shares of Xxxxx Stock plus (ii) such
additional assets as are necessary to satisfy in full any pending asserted
Claims, whether or not then liquidated in amount, as to which JMED or AAC may
be entitled to indemnification under the provisions of Article One of this
Agreement. In the event that the time for asserting Claims arising under
paragraph 7.5 of the Reorganization Agreement shall have expired as of March
31, 1998, the retention of shares of pursuant to clause (i) of this Section
2.5.1 shall not be required. In the event of any stock dividends or stock
splits applicable to the Xxxxx Stock subsequent to the date of this Agreement,
the 10,000 share figure used herein shall be adjusted to include the additional
shares of Xxxxx Stock arising from such stock dividends or stock splits.
2.5.2 Final Distribution to Principal Holders. Unless all assets
comprising the Escrow Fund shall have been distributed in accordance with
Section 2.5.1 above, the remaining assets comprising the Escrow Fund shall,
unless JMED shall consent to an earlier distribution in whole or in part, be
distributed and released from escrow at the later of (i) the date upon which
all pending Claims by JMED or AAC for indemnification have been resolved or
(ii) the earlier of (a) thirty (30) days following the completion of any and
all audits of the federal and state tax returns of Abana for periods ending on
or prior to the Closing Date or (b) September 15, 1999.
2.5.3 Method of Distribution. In connection with any distribution to the
Principal Holders pursuant to this Section 2.5, distribution shall be made

8
