to the terms and conditions of LADARVision Placement Contract attached
hereto as Exhibit C, and * of Procedure fee paid to RH pursuant to Laser
Patent Software License Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D) for each
Procedure performed on a System obtained pursuant to this Agreement * . In
the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any of the Exhibits
attached hereto, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.
In lieu of NovaMed paying the aggregate per Procedure fees * on a quarterly
basis, the per Procedure fees will be payable by NovaMed to ALI and RH on a
monthly basis, with payment due net 30 days, as follows: during the first
three months of each calendar quarter, the per Procedure fee for Procedures
performed on Systems during such three months will equal the average per
Procedure fee * payable by NovaMed to ALI and RH for Procedures performed
during the preceding calendar quarter. All amounts due, but not paid on the
due date, will accrue interest at the rate of 1.5% per month or such other
maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is less. The foregoing terms are
payment terms only, and the ultimate per Procedure fees due and owing will
be reconciled per Sections 6-8 and Section 12 hereof.
As used herein, the term "Procedure" means any ophthalmic procedure, per
eye, performed on a System or any procedures performed on an APEX/Infinity
laser after March 1, 2001, the purpose or effect of which is to alter
refraction of the human eye, but does not include bona fide retreatments
(hereafter referred to as "Retreatments"). Further, the term "Procedure"
does not and will not include Custom Cornea(R) equipment, software and
procedures if, as and when approved. Retreatment procedures performed on
the Systems will be priced at * per Procedure. Retreatments include any

where the initial procedure was performed within eighteen (18) months of
the date of the Retreatment.
7. Minimum Procedures. NovaMed agrees to an annual minimum commitment volume
of * Procedures per System, based on the average number of Procedures for
all Systems obtained by NovaMed pursuant to this Agreement. Should the
average number of Procedures per System for all of the Systems fall
below * Procedures for a particular year, RH and ALI shall xxxx NovaMed for
the shortfall at a combined rate of * per Procedure. The average number of
Procedures per System will be computed pursuant to Section 12 below on a
calendar year basis, with estimated short fall xxxxxxxx, if any, billed on
a quarterly basis, and adjusted to actual at year end. Any short fall
payment will be

12. Calculation of Average Number of Procedures. For purposes of calculating
the average annual Procedures per System for sections 7 and 8, the
following methodology will be used. Calculations will be made on a calendar
year basis ending December 31 of each year (including 2001). *
* , the average number of Procedures per System is equal to the sum of
total Procedures performed during the calendar year divided by the sum of
the cumulative Systems in service for each full month of the year times 12.
For purposes of calculating the annual minimum commitment volume of *
Procedures per System under Section 7, the average number of Procedures per
System will be equal to the total Procedures performed during the calendar
year on all Systems obtained pursuant to this Agreement and including
Systems (and the Procedures performed thereon) obtained pursuant to
Sections 13 and 14 hereof, divided by the sum of the cumulative Systems in
service for each full month of the year times 12.
*
*
Procedures performed prior to the Effective Date on the Systems described
in Section 14 shall be added to the number of Procedures performed on such
Systems during the month of March 2001 for the purposes of making the
calculations under this Section 12.
A System will be included in the cumulative Systems number beginning in the
first full month after installation. See below for an example of such a
calculation where a total of 20 Systems are in operation at year-end.

21. Default and Termination.
a. In the event NovaMed commits a breach of any of its material
obligations under this Agreement, and shall fail to cure or diligently
pursue the cure of such breach within thirty (30) days after NovaMed
receives written notice from ALI specifying the nature of such breach
in reasonable detail, then ALI and RH, in their sole discretion, may
elect one of the following remedies: (i) increase the per Procedure
fees to * for each Procedure performed on a System, subject to the
minimum Procedures described in Section 7, and increase the Omnicard
fee to * per card for all APEX/Infinity lasers, without paying any *
otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) terminate this

Patent and Software Licenses executed pursuant to the terms hereof,
and, in the event of any such termination, NovaMed shall promptly
return to ALI all Systems and SKBM's; provided, that NovaMed shall only
be responsible for paying per Procedure fees for Procedures performed
on the Systems prior to NovaMed's return of the Systems. ALI's remedies
herein are cumulative in nature, not exclusive, and the exercise of any
particular remedy shall not be construed to be an election of remedies
by ALI nor shall a waiver or delay by ALI of any of its rights or
remedies under this Agreement be construed as a waiver of ALI's rights
to enforce any remedies hereunder in the future; provided, however,
that if ALI elects the remedy set forth in clause (a)(i) above, then
ALI shall not be able to subsequently elect the remedy set forth in
clause (a)(ii) for the same breach of the material obligation unless
ALI (A) provided NovaMed with written notice of its election of the
remedy in (a)(i), and (B) NovaMed did not cure the breach of the
material obligation within fifteen (15) days following the receipt of
such notice. In the event ALI elects the remedy described in clause

not terminated this Agreement, then NovaMed shall have the right to
once again participate * in this Agreement under the original terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
b. In the event (i) the FDA withdraws or materially restricts its approval
of the APEX/Infinity Laser and/or the System for use in the manner
currently permitted as of the date of this Agreement, or (ii) there is
a change to the Patents (as defined in Exhibit D) or NovaMed's use of
the Systems in accordance with this Agreement is determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction in an order from which no further appeal can
be taken to infringe on other patents, and such change or final finding
of infringement renders the Systems unusable by NovaMed or the NovaMed
Parties, then NovaMed will have the right to terminate immediately,
without penalty and any further cost to NovaMed, this Agreement and the
LADARVision(R) Placement Contracts and Laser Patent and Software
Licenses. In any event, NovaMed will pay to ALI all money owed as of
the date of termination.
