SECTION 4.03 Termination for Cause. If the Board determines that Cause (as defined below) exists, it may remove Executive for Cause and terminate this Agreement and the term of Executive’s employment hereunder on the date specified in written notice to Executive.

(f) any willful act or omission on Executive’s part which is injurious in any material respect to the business operations, financial condition or business reputation of Parent or Company or any of their subsidiaries.

SECTION 4.04 Termination in Discretion of Company. Company may, at any time, on 15 days’ written notice to Executive, terminate this Agreement and the term of Executive’s employment hereunder, and Executive thereafter shall receive all monetary compensation and benefits due through the termination date specified in the notice, as well as rights to receive monetary compensation or benefits hereunder in respect of any period after the effective date of termination as are specifically provided in Section 4.07 hereof.

SECTION 4.05 Voluntary Termination for Good Reason. During the period commencing upon the occurrence of Good Reason (as defined below) and continuing for 30 days thereafter, Executive shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment for Good Reason (as defined below), whereupon Executive shall become entitled to receive compensation as provided in Section 4.07 hereof. The failure of Executive to deliver such notice with the 30-day time period shall constitute agreement by Executive to such event and eliminate the ability of Executive to terminate this Agreement for such event. Termination by the Executive pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be effective upon 30 days written notice to Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means any of the following:

(a) the movement by Company, without Executive’s consent, of Executive’s principal place of employment to a site that is more than 80 miles from Executive’s principal residence in the State of California;

(d) The compensation rights provided for Executive in this Section 4.07 shall be Executive’s sole and exclusive remedies with respect to Section 4.01, 4.02, 4.04, 4.05, or 4.07(c) hereof, and Executive, the executors or administrators of Executive’s estate or Executive’s heirs or legatees (as the case may be) shall not be entitled to any other compensation, damages or relief in connection therewith.

(e) In exchange for, and as a condition to receiving, the compensation rights provided to Executive in this Section 4.07, Executive will be required to execute a waiver and release substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, and the failure to execute such waiver and

release shall be a basis for the Company not paying any amounts otherwise due to Executive hereunder.

V. CERTAIN COVENANTS OF EXECUTIVE

SECTION 5.01 Covenants Against Unfair Competition.

(a) Acknowledgments. Executive acknowledges that, as of the date hereof: (i) the principal business of Company and its affiliates is the provision of diagnostic imaging, treatment and related management services through a network of mobile magnetic resonance imaging (“MRI”), computed tomography (“CT”), positron emission tomography (“PET”) and PET/CT facilities, fixed-site MRI and PET and PET/CT facilities and multi-modality centers, at times, together with other healthcare providers, utilizing the related equipment and computer programs and “software” and various corporate investment structures (“Company Business”); (ii) Company Business is primarily national in scope; (iii) the industry is highly competitive; and (iv) Executive’s duties hereunder will cause Executive to have access to and be entrusted with various trade secrets not readily available to the public or competitors, consisting of business accounts, lists of customers and other business contacts, information concerning Company’s relationships with actual or potential clients or customers and the needs or requirements of such clients or customers, budgets, business and financial plans, employee lists, financial information, artwork, designs, graphics, marketing plans and techniques, business strategy and development, know-how or other matters connected with Company Business, computer software programs and specifications (some of which may be developed in part by Executive under this Agreement), which items are owned exclusively by Company and used in the operation of Company Business (“Trade Secrets”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that the term “Trade Secrets” shall not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public, without violation of any obligation of confidentiality by Executive, (ii) is or becomes available from a third party on a nonconfidential basis, provided that such third party is not bound by a confidentiality agreement concerning the Trade Secrets and (iii) is or has been independently acquired or developed by Executive without violating the provisions of this Section.

Executive further acknowledges that the Trade Secrets will be disclosed to Executive or obtained by Executive and received in confidence and trust for the sole purpose of using the same for the sole benefit of Company Business. Executive also acknowledges that such Trade Secrets are valuable to Company, of a unique and special nature, and important to Company in competing in the marketplace.

During and after the term of this Agreement (otherwise than in the performance of this Agreement), without Company’s prior written consent, Executive shall not divulge or use all or any of the Trade Secrets to or for any person or entity except (i) for the benefit of Company and as necessary to perform Executive’s services under this Agreement; and (ii) when required by law, and then only after consultation with Company. In the event that Executive, becomes or is legally compelled (whether by deposition, interrogatories, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Trade Secrets, Executive shall provide Company with prompt, prior written notice of such requirement so that Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this

Section. Executive agrees that Executive’s obligations under this Section 5.01 shall be absolute and unconditional.

(b) Breach. Executive understands and agrees that Executive’s employment with Company may be terminated if Executive breaches this Agreement or in any way divulges such Trade Secrets. Executive further understands and agrees that Company may be irreparably harmed by any violation or threatened violation of this Agreement and, therefore, Company may be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce any of the provisions contained herein, without the necessity to post bond.

(c) Non-Compete. During the period of Executive’s employment Executive will not directly or indirectly either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, corporate officer, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or participate in any activity or business which Company shall determine in good faith to be in competition in any substantial way with Company Business within any metropolitan area in the United States or elsewhere in which Company is then engaged in Company Business. The parties acknowledge that in California and some states post-employment non-compete clauses may be generally unenforceable, but that other states and jurisdictions permit such agreements. Executive hereby agrees that Executive will not directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, corporate officer, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or participate in any activity or business which Company shall determine in good faith to be in competition in any substantial way with Company Business as conducted at the effective date of termination of Executive’s employment by Company for or a period of twelve (12) months after the termination of Executive’s employment and that this Section will be enforceable to the greatest extent of the law.

(d) No Solicitation of Employees. During Executive’s employment and for a period of twelve (12) months after the termination of Executive’s employment, Executive will not, either directly or indirectly, either alone or in concert with others, solicit or entice or participate in the solicitation or attempt to solicit or in any manner encourage employees of Company to leave Company or work for anyone that is in competition in any substantial way with Company Business (which in the case of the period following Executive’s termination, shall mean Company Business as conducted as of the effective date of termination of Executive’s employment with Company); provided, however, that the public listing, advertising or posting of an available position shall not constitute solicitation or an attempt to solicit hereunder and this subsection (d) shall not preclude Executive from hiring an individual pursuant thereto.

(e) No Solicitation of Customers. Executive will not during the course of Executive’s employment, or for twelve (12) months thereafter, engage in any unfair competition with Company, or either directly or indirectly call on, solicit, or take away, or attempt to call on, solicit or take away any of Company’s customers on behalf of any business that is in competition in any substantial way with Company. During Executive’s employment, Executive agrees not to plan or otherwise take any preliminary steps, either alone or in concert with others, to set up or engage in any business enterprise that would be in competition with Company Business. In the event of the termination of Executive’s employment and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Executive will not accept any employment or engage in any activities which Company

shall determine in good faith to be competitive with Company, if the fulfillment of the duties of the competitive employment or activities would inherently require Executive to reveal Trade Secrets to which Executive has access or learned during Executive’s employment on behalf of any business that is in competition in any substantial way with Company.

(f) Return of Company Property. In the event of the termination of Executive’s employment, Executive will deliver to Company all devices, records, sketches, reports, proposals, files, customer lists, mailing or contact lists, correspondence, computer tapes, discs and design and other document and data storage and retrieval materials (and all copies, compilations and summaries thereof), equipment, documents, duplicates, notes, drawings, specifications, research tape or other electronic recordings, programs, data and other materials or property of any nature belonging to Company or relating to Company Business, and Executive will not take with Executive or allow a third party to take, any of the foregoing or any reproduction of any of the foregoing. Company property includes personal property, made or compiled by Executive, in whole or in part and alone or with others, or in any way coming into Executive’s possession concerning Company Business or other affairs of Company or any of its affiliates.

(g) Disclosure and Assignment of Rights. (i) Executive shall promptly disclose and assign to Company and its affiliates or its nominee(s), to the maximum extent permitted by Section 2870 of the California Labor Code, as it may be hereafter amended from time to time, all right, title and interest of Executive in and to any and all ideas, inventions, discoveries, secret processes and methods and improvements, together with any and all patents that may be issued thereon in the United States and in all foreign countries, which Executive may invent, develop or improve, or cause to be invented, developed or improved, during the term of this Agreement or which are (1) conceived and developed during normal working hours, and (2) related to the scope of Company Business. As used in this Agreement, the term “invent” includes “make”, “discover”, “develop”, “manufacture” or “produce”, or any of them; “invention” includes the phrase “any new or useful original art, machine, methods of manufacture, process, composition of matter, design, or configuration of any kind”; “improvement” includes “discovery” or “production”; and “patent” includes “Letters Patent” and “all the extensions, renewals, modifications, improvements and reissues of such patents”.

(ii) Executive shall disclose immediately to duly authorized representatives of Company any ideas, inventions, discoveries, secret processes and methods and improvements covered by the provisions of paragraph (i) above, and execute all documents reasonably required in connection with the application for an issuance of Letters Patent in the United States and in any foreign country and the assignment thereof to Company and its affiliates or its nominee(s).

SECTION 5.02 Rights and Remedies Upon Breach. If Executive breaches, or threatens to breach, in any material respect any of the provisions of Section 5.01 hereof (“Restrictive Covenants”), Company shall, in addition to all its other rights hereunder and under applicable law and in equity, have the right to seek specific enforcement of the Restrictive Covenants by any court having jurisdiction, including, without limitation, the granting of a preliminary injunction which may be granted without the necessity of proving damages or the posting of a bond or other security, it being acknowledged that any such breach or threatened breach may

cause irreparable injury to Company and that money damages may not provide an adequate remedy to Company. In addition to and not in lieu of any other remedy that Company may have pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, in the event of any breach of any provision of Section 5.01 during the period which Executive is entitled to receive payments and benefits pursuant to Section 4.07, such period shall terminate as of the date of such breach and Executive shall not thereafter be entitled to receive any salary or other payments or benefits under this Agreement.

SECTION 5.03 Severability and Modification of Covenants. Company and Executive agree and acknowledge that the duration, scope and geographic area of the Restrictive Covenants described in this Section 5.01 are fair, reasonable and necessary in order to protect the good will and other legitimate interests of Company, that adequate consideration has been received by Executive for such obligations, and that these obligations do not prevent Executive from earning a livelihood. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Restrictive Covenants shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions. If any court of competent jurisdiction construes any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, to be unenforceable because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision or otherwise, such provision shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent required to make it enforceable and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and enforced.

VI. CERTAIN AGREEMENTS

EXHIBIT A

Waiver and Release

In consideration of compensation rights and other benefits, Executive hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, waives and forever discharges the Company, its direct and indirect subsidiaries and affiliates, affiliated persons, partnerships and corporations, successors and assigns, and all of their past and present directors, members, partners, contractors, distributors, officers, stockholders, consultants, agents, representatives, attorneys, employees, employee benefit plans and plan fiduciaries (collectively, the “Company Releasees”), individually and collectively, from any and all actions, causes of action, claims, demands, damages, rights, remedies and liabilities of whatsoever kind or character, in law or equity, suspected or unsuspected, known or unknown, past or present, that Executive has ever had, may now have, or may later have or assert against any of the Company Releasees, concerning, arising out of or related to Executive’s employment by or the performance of any services to or on behalf of any of the InSight Companies, arising out of or related to the termination of Executive’s employment agreement with the InSight Companies, or arising out of any other agreement Executive has, may have or may have had with the InSight Companies, in all cases from the beginning of time to the effective date of termination (hereinafter referred to as “Executive’s Claims”), including without limitation: (i) any claims arising out of or related to any federal, state and/or local labor or civil rights laws, as amended, including, without limitation, the federal Civil Rights Acts of 1866,1964, and 1991 (including but not limited to Title VII), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the National Labor Relations Act, the Workers’ Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the California Industrial Welfare Commission Wage Orders, and the California Labor Code and/or any similar state antidiscrimination and employment statutes, and (ii) any and all other Executive’s Claims arising out of or related to any contract or employment agreement, any and all other federal, state or local constitutions, statutes, rules or regulations, or under the laws of any country or political subdivision, or under any common law right of any kind whatsoever. Executive also agree to waive all rights to xxx or obtain equitable, remedial or point relief from any or all Company Releasees of any kind whatsoever, including, without limitation, reinstatement, back pay, front pay, attorneys’ fees and any form of injunctive relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall not affect any of Executive’s rights or obligations under (a) the Company’s 401(k) Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”), (b) the Indemnification Agreement executed between Executive and the Company effective May 15, 2008 (c) Executive’s right to statutory indemnification pursuant to California Labor Code Section 2802, (d) the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”), (e) workers compensation or unemployment insurance benefit claims, or (f) the terms of this Agreement.

Executive and the Company hereby waive and relinquish all rights and benefits afforded by California Civil Code 1542. Executive and the Company understand and acknowledge the significance and consequences of this specific waiver of Section 1542. California Civil Code section 1542 states as follows:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affect his settlement with the debtor.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Executive represents, warrants and agrees not to lodge or assist anyone else in lodging any formal or informal complaint in court, with any federal, state or local agency or any other forum, in any jurisdiction, arising out of or related to Executive’s Claims. Executive hereby represents and warrants that Executive has not brought any complaint, claim, charge, action or proceeding against any of the Company Releasees in any jurisdiction or forum, nor assisted or encouraged any other person or persons in doing so. Executive further represents and warrants that Executive has not in the past and will not in the future assign any of Executive’s Claims to any person, corporation or other entity.

Executive’s execution of this Agreement operates as a complete bar and defense against any and all of the Executive’s Claims against the Company and each of the other Company Releasees to the maximum extent permitted by law. If Executive should hereafter make any of Executive’s Claims in any charge, complaint, action, claim or proceeding against the Company or any of the other Company Releasees, this Agreement may be raised as, and shall constitute a complete bar to, any such charge, complaint, action, claim or proceeding and Executive agrees to disclaim and waive any right to share or participate in any monetary award resulting from the prosecution of any administrative investigation or proceeding.
