(a) Accounts Receivable Adjustment. If the Subsidiary, within the twelve (12) month calendar period immediately following the Closing Date, does not collect a total of at least Six Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($600,000.00) from the accounts receivable purchased pursuant to this Agreement (the “Acquired Accounts Receivable”), then the Initial Transaction Consideration shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the A/R Adjustment. The “A/R Adjustment” shall equal the difference between Six Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($600,000.00) and the amount of the Acquired Accounts Receivable actually collected by the Subsidiary during such twelve (12) month period. Buyer shall receive payment for the A/R Adjustment through a lump sum cash payment from the Seller within seven (7) days after the end of the twelve (12) month period.

3.3 Earn-out Payment.

(a) General. Subject to the condition that the Subsidiary achieves Formula Period Profits (as defined in Subsection (f) below) of at least One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Earnings Threshold”) in each of the three (3) successive twelve (12) month calendar periods beginning on January 1, 2004 (each such twelve (12) month calendar period shall be referred to herein as a “Formula Period”), then Buyer shall pay to the Seller a total amount of additional consideration of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000), payable in three equal annual installments of Eight Hundred Thirty Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty Three and 33/100 Dollars ($833,333.33) (the “Intended Installment Payment”) as of the time and in the form of consideration provided in Section 3.3(d) below and subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.3(b) and (c) below.

(b) Installment Payment Discount. Notwithstanding Section 3.3(a) above, if the Subsidiary fails to achieve the Earnings Threshold in any Formula Period, the amount of the Intended Installment Payment for such Formula Period shall be recalculated to equal the product of the Intended Installment Payment, multiplied by the Installment Payment Discount (as defined below) (the “Adjusted Installment Payment”). The “Installment Payment Discount” shall equal

(i) the Formula Period Profits (as defined in Subsection (f) below) for such Formula Period divided by the Earnings Threshold; multiplied by (ii) ninety percent (90%).

(c) Installment Payment Premium. Notwithstanding Section 3.3(b), if (i) the Seller receives the Adjusted Installment Payment from Buyer in any Formula Period (including the last Formula Period) rather than the Intended Installment Payment as a result of the Formula Period Profits equaling less than the Earnings Threshold for such Formula Period, and (ii) the Subsidiary’s Formula Period Profits exceed the Earnings Threshold in the Formula Period immediately subsequent to the Formula Period (or, with respect to the last Formula Period if there is an Adjusted Installment Payment, the twelve (12) month period immediately following the last Formula Period) for which the Installment Payment Discount corresponded, then Buyer shall pay to the Seller the Installment Payment Premium (as defined below). The “Installment Payment Premium” shall equal the product of (A) the Formula Period Profits for the Formula Period (or, the twelve (12) month period immediately following the last Formula Period, as the case may be) in which the Installment Payment Premium is calculated minus the Earnings Threshold, multiplied by (B) Seventy-five percent (75%). The Installment Payment Premium shall be paid to the Seller in the same percentages, form and time as the Installment Payments (as defined in Subsection 3.3(d) below) are due for the Formula Period for which the Installment Payment Premium is calculated.

(d) Manner of Payment. Within sixty (60) days after the end of each Formula Period, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Seller a financial statement presenting the Formula Period Profits for the Subsidiary for the applicable Formula Period (the “Formula Period Profits Statement”). Ten (10) business days after delivery of the Formula Period Profits Statement, the Seller shall in a written notice to Buyer either accept or describe in reasonable detail any proposed adjustments to the Formula Period Profits Statement and the reasons therefore, and shall include pertinent calculations. If the Seller fails to deliver notice of acceptance or objection to the Formula Period Profits Statement within such ten (10) day period, the Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the Formula Period Profits Statement. If the Seller accepts or fails to object to the Formula Period Profits Statement within the ten (10) day period set forth above, then within ninety (90) days after the end of the Formula Period, Buyer shall pay to the Seller the Intended Installment Payment or the Adjusted Installment Payment (each an “Installment Payment”, and collectively, the “Installment Payments”) along with any Installment Payment Premium owed in accordance with Subsection 3.3(c) above as follows: (i) fifty percent (50%) of the Installment Payment shall be made in cash via wire transfer to a bank account designated by the Seller at least five (5) days prior to the end of the Formula Period; and (ii) fifty percent (50%) of the Installment Payment shall be made in Buyer’s common shares, $.0001 par value (hereinafter the “Earn-out Shares”), priced at Fair Market Value (as defined in Subsection 3.3(f) below) as of the last day of the subject Formula Period. In the event Buyer and the Seller are not able to agree on the Formula Period Profits Statement within thirty (30) days from and after the receipt by Buyer of any objections raised by the Seller, Buyer and the Seller shall each have the right to require that such disputed determinations be submitted to an independent certified public accountant or accounting firm that Buyer shall select, for computation or verification in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and the Installment Payment shall be paid by Buyer to the Seller within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the accountant’s computation or

verification. The foregoing provisions for certified public accounting firm review shall be final and binding upon the Parties and there shall be no right of appeal from such decision.

(e) Earn-out Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3, in no event whatsoever shall the aggregate amount of the Installment Payments and Installment Payment Premiums payable to the Seller from Buyer in cash, in the Earn-out Shares (as priced pursuant to this Agreement) or any other form of consideration exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000).

debentures, or preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the common stock of the Buyer or the rights thereof, or to effect the dissolution or liquidation of the Buyer, or any sale or transfer of all or part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

6. OTHER MATTERS

6.1 Noncompetition; Confidentiality. Subject to the Closing, and as an inducement to Buyer to execute this Agreement and complete the transactions contemplated hereby, and in order to preserve the goodwill associated with the Business, Seller hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

(a) Covenant Not to Compete. For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, Seller will not directly or indirectly, within the Territory (as hereinafter defined):

(1) be employed by, act as an agent, consultant or contractor of, engage in, continue in or carry on any business which competes with the Business of the Subsidiary or any business of PainCare or any of its subsidiaries that is substantially similar to the Business of the Subsidiary, including owning or controlling any financial interest in any corporation, partnership, firm or other form of business organization which is so engaged;

(2) be employed by, consult with, advise or assist in any way, whether or not for consideration, any corporation, partnership, firm or other business organization which is now or becomes a competitor of the Subsidiary or PainCare or its subsidiaries in any aspect with respect to the Business of the Subsidiary, including, but not limited to, advertising or otherwise endorsing the products of any such competitor; soliciting patients and customers or otherwise serving as an intermediary for any such competitor; loaning money or rendering any other form of financial assistance to or engaging in any form of business transaction on other than on an arm’s length basis with any such competitor;

(3) offer employment to an employee of the Subsidiary, PainCare or any of its subsidiaries, without the prior written consent of PainCare; or

(4) engage in any practice the purpose of which is to evade the provisions of this covenant not to compete or to commit any act which adversely affects the Subsidiary, the PainCare or its subsidiaries or their businesses, excluding Outside Activities provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit the ownership of securities of corporations which are listed on a national securities exchange or traded in the national over-the-counter market in an amount which shall not exceed 5% of the outstanding shares of any such corporation. The parties agree that the geographic scope of this covenant not to compete shall include the Parish of Terrebonne, Louisiana (the “Territory”). The parties agree that the Subsidiary or PainCare, as the case may be, may sell, assign or otherwise transfer this covenant not to compete, in whole or in part, to any person, corporation, firm or entity that purchases all or part of the Subsidiary’s, or PainCare’s, business upon obtaining the prior written consent of Seller which will not be unreasonably withheld. In the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the provisions of this covenant not to compete are excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope or activity, it is expressly agreed that this covenant not to compete shall be construed so that the remaining provisions shall not be affected, but shall remain in full force and effect, and any such over broad provisions shall be deemed, without further action on the part of any person, to be modified, amended and/or limited, but only to the extent necessary to render the same valid and enforceable in such jurisdiction.

6.2 Severability. If any covenant or provision contained in this Section is determined to be void or unenforceable in whole or in part, it shall not be deemed to affect or impair the validity of any other covenant or provision. If, in any arbitration or judicial proceeding, a tribunal shall refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants deemed included in this Section, then such unenforceable covenants shall be deemed eliminated from the provisions hereof for the purpose of such proceedings to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced in such proceedings.

(a) Covenant of Confidentiality. Seller shall not at any time subsequent to the Closing, except as explicitly requested by Buyer, (i) use for any purpose, (ii) disclose to any person, or (iii) keep or make copies of documents, tapes, discs or programs containing, any confidential information concerning the Business, the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.

(b) Equitable Relief for Violations. Seller agrees that the provisions and restrictions contained in this Section are necessary to protect the legitimate continuing interests of Buyer in acquiring the Business through the purchase of the Purchased Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, and that any violation or breach of these provisions will result in irreparable injury to Buyer for which a remedy at law would be inadequate and that, in addition to any relief at law which may be available to Buyer for such violation or breach and regardless of any other provision contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to

injunctive and other equitable relief as a court may grant after considering the intent of this Section.

6.3 Use of Name. Following the Effective Date, neither Seller nor any Affiliate shall, without the prior written consent of Buyer, make any use of the name “Bone & Joint Surgical Clinic” or any other name confusingly similar thereto, except as may be necessary for Seller to pay its liabilities, prepare tax returns and other reports, and to otherwise wind up and conclude its business.

6.4 After Closing. After the Closing, each party will afford the other party, its counsel, accountants and other representatives, during normal business hours, reasonable access to the books, records and other data in such party’s possession relating directly or indirectly to the properties, liabilities or operations of the Business, with respect to periods prior to the Closing, and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to the extent that such access may be reasonably required by the requesting party for any proper business purpose. Each party agrees for a period extending three years after the Closing not to destroy or otherwise dispose of any such records without first offering in writing to surrender such records to the other party, which party shall have ten (10) days after such offer to agree in writing to take possession thereof.

6.5 Bulk Sales Compliance. Following the execution of this Agreement, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in complying with all provisions of the bulk sales or bulk transfer statutes of all states having jurisdiction, in such a way as to provide Buyer the greatest measure of protection against the creditors of Seller allowable under all such statutes.

(d) cause the Subsidiary to become a party to or terminate any agreement which at the time such agreement is entered into or terminated could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Formula Period Profits or that is reasonably necessary in light of the Surviving Corporation’s results of operation;

(e) cause the Subsidiary to undertake actions outside the ordinary course of its business which at the time of such undertaking could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Formula Period Profits;

(f) sell a material portion of the Subsidiary or its assets, merge the Subsidiary with any other entity, sell a controlling interest in the Subsidiary, or make any fundamental change in the business of the Subsidiary unless such action(s) at the time of such undertaking could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Formula Period Profits or that is reasonably necessary in light of the Surviving Corporation’s results of operation;

The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the foregoing conditions shall become null and void and of no further force or effect if the Formula Profits of the Subsidiary in each of any two (2) consecutive calendar quarters are less than $200,000, or if the Formula Profits of the Subsidiary in one (1) calendar quarter is less than $100,000.

In the event that PainCare defaults in its performance of any of its obligations under this Section and fails to cure such default within thirty (30) days (or such other reasonable period if 30 days is not a sufficient amount of time to cure such default, provided that PainCare shall have commenced in good faith and is diligently pursuing its efforts to cure such default during such 30-day period) of receiving a written notice of default from the Seller, PainCare shall be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement.

12. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

13. SURVIVAL AND INDEMNIFICATION.

13.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All of the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements including but not limited to the restrictive covenants and the indemnification provisions contained in this Agreement are material and have been relied upon by the Parties hereto and shall survive the Closing. The representations and warranties contained herein shall not be affected by any investigation, verification or examination by any Party or by anyone on behalf of such Party.

13.2 Indemnification Provisions for the Benefit of PainCare and the Subsidiary. In the event of: (a) a misrepresentation (or in the event any third party alleges facts that, if true, would mean a misrepresentation) of any of the Seller’s representations and/or warranties contained in this Agreement; (b) a breach (or in the event any third party alleges facts that, if true, would mean a breach) of any of the Seller’ covenants contained in this Agreement or any other agreement executed in connection herewith; or (c) any Liability or Claim against the Seller, the Business or the Purchased Assets of any nature whatsoever accrued or existing as of the Closing Date or related to actions of the Seller or arising out of the Business which occurred prior to the Closing Date, which is not reflected on the Disclosure Schedules and accepted by the Buyer, then the Seller agrees to indemnify PainCare and Subsidiary from and against any Adverse Consequences PainCare and Subsidiary may suffer through and after the date of the claim for indemnification resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the misrepresentation or breach (or alleged breach) or non-disclosed or non-accepted Liability. No provision of this Agreement, including but not in any way limited to, any “Knowledge” qualifiers or materiality

standards in the representations and warranties of the Seller, shall have any effect on the Sellers’ indemnity for any Liability arising prior to the Closing Date.

13.3 Indemnification Provisions for the Benefit of the Seller. In the event of a misrepresentation or breach (or in the event any third party alleges facts that, if true, would mean a misrepresentation or breach) of any of PainCare’s or Subsidiary’s representations, warranties, and covenants contained in this Agreement, then PainCare and Subsidiary agree to indemnify the Seller from and against any Adverse Consequences the Seller may suffer through and after the date of the claim for indemnification resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the breach (or the alleged breach).

13.4 Matters Involving Third Parties.

13.4.1 Notification. If any third party shall notify any Party (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) pursuant to this Section, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced and then only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced.

13.4.2 Defense by Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as: (i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within ten (10) business days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim; (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder; (iii) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief; (iv) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnified Party; and (e) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently.

13.4.3 Satisfactory Defense. So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 10.4(b) above: (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim; (ii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be withheld or delayed unreasonably); and (iii) the

Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be withheld or delayed unreasonably) and any such settlement must include a complete release of the Indemnified Party.

13.4.4 Conditions. In the event any of the conditions in Section 13.4.2 above is or becomes unsatisfied, however: (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith); (ii) the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the Third Party Claim (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses); and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Section 13.

13.4.5 Right to Set-Off. If any such cost, loss, damage, expense, liability, claim, or obligation occurs or is incurred by PainCare or Subsidiary, PainCare or Subsidiary shall have the right, after written notice to the Seller, at PainCare’s or Subsidiary’s option and in addition to any other actions permitted by law, to offset the amount of any such cost, loss, damage, expense, liability, obligation or claim against amounts due from PainCare or Subsidiary to the Seller, including the right to offset any post-closing payment due from PainCare or Subsidiary to the Seller under this Agreement or any other agreement.

13.4.6 Materiality. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party in connection with a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement included in this Agreement, and the amount of damages to be indemnified, shall be determined without regard to any “material”, “materiality” (or correlative meanings”) or “material adverse effect” qualifications, provisions or exceptions set forth in such representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement, each of which shall be deemed to be given for the purposes of this Section 13 as though there were no such qualifications, provisions or exceptions.

13.4.7 Limitation. The indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 13 shall be limited to all claims in excess of Twenty Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($25,000) (the “Threshold”). Once a claim exceeds the Threshold, if a Party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 13, such party shall recover all appropriate funds from the first dollar of damages. Further, the indemnitors shall not be liable for any liabilities resulting from claims that are covered by any insurance policy or other indemnity or contribution agreement unless, and only to the extent that, the full limit of such insurance policy, indemnity or contribution agreement has been exceeded. The Party entitled to indemnification shall have a duty to mitigate its damages.

14.6 Intentionally Omitted.

14.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

14.9 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not constitute a part hereof.

14.10 Press Releases, and Public Announcements. No Party shall issue any press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other Parties.

14.11 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Attorney’s Fees. This Agreement, and all proceedings hereunder, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (either of the State of Florida or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Florida. In the event of any suit under this Agreement or otherwise between the parties hereto, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to all reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, including allocated costs of in-house counsel, to be included in any judgment recovered. In addition, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, including allocated costs of in-house counsel, incurred in enforcing any judgment arising from a suit under this Agreement. This post-judgment attorney’s fees and costs provision shall be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and shall survive any judgment on such suit and is not to be deemed merged into the judgment.

14.12 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Parties. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence and all waivers must be in writing, signed by the waiving Party, to be effective.

14.13 Severability.

The word “including” shall mean including without limitation. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein, unless the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from nor mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

14.17 Survival. All of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by the Parties in this Agreement or pursuant hereto in any certificate, instrument or document shall survive the consummation of the transactions described herein shall survive for all applicable statute of limitations, and may be fully and completely relied upon by Sellers and Purchasers, as the case may be, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by any of them or on behalf of any of them, and shall not be deemed merged into any instruments or agreements delivered at Closing or thereafter.
