PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Quality Care Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("QCP"), a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company, along with other entities, has been named as a defendant in
approximately forty-seven lawsuits, and expects to be named in additional
lawsuits, brought by numerous plaintiffs relating to personal injury claims
caused by the use of fen fluaramine, dexfen fluramine and/or phentormine,
collectively known as Phen Fen. The lawsuits have been brought in various
jurisdictions, including state courts in California, Nevada and West Virginia.
In California, case management has been consolidated in the Superior Court of
California, County of Los Angeles, Judicial Council Coordination Proceeding No.
4032. According to an internet web site maintained by the California Superior
Court, County of Los Angeles, QCP has been named as a defendant in approximately
forty-five lawsuits, but QCP has only been served in thirteen California
lawsuits to date. QCP has also been served as a defendant in lawsuits filed in
state court in the States of Nevada and West Virginia. The first lawsuit in
California was filed against the principal defendants, including manufacturers,
distributors and physicians, on May 27, 1998 and lawsuits have been filed on
various dates since that time. QCP has been added as a named defendant in
lawsuits at various times over the last few months. Plaintiffs in all of the
lawsuits are seeking monetary damages as well as injunctive relief. At this time
it is not possible for the Company to determine what, if any, liability to the
Company will result from such claims.

EXHIBIT 10.1
ALCO FINANCIAL SERVICES, LLC LOAN AGREEMENT
AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
This Agreement (the "Agreement") dated as of April 2nd, 1999 between the
undersigned Borrower and the undersigned Lender concerning loans and other
credit accommodations to be made by Lender to Borrower.
1. PARTIES
1.1. The "Borrower" is the person, firm, corporation or other entity,
identified as the Borrower in Section 10.7 and its successors and assigns. If
more than one Borrower is specified in Section 10.7, all references to Borrower
shall mean each of them, jointly and severally, individually and collectively,
and the successors and assigns of each.
1.2. The "Lender" is the person, firm, corporation or other entity, identified
as the Lender in Section 10.6 and its successors and assigns. If more than one
Lender is specified in Section 10.6, all references to Lender shall mean each of
them, jointly and severally, individually and collectively, and the successors
and assigns of each.
2. LOANS AND OTHER CREDIT ACCOMMODATIONS
2.1. Revolving Loans. Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions
contained herein, make revolving loans to Borrower ("Revolving Loans") in
amounts requested by Borrower from time to time, but, not in excess of the Net
Availability existing immediately prior to the making of the requested loan and
provided the requested loan would not cause the outstanding Obligations to
exceed the Maximum Credit. Amounts advanced as part of the Revolving Loans shall
be advanced based on Eligible Accounts (as defined below) and Inventory Advances
(as defined below) shall be advanced based on Eligible Inventory;
2.1.1 "Eligible Accounts" are accounts receivable created by Borrower in the
ordinary course of its business which are and remain acceptable to Lender for
lending purposes. Criteria for Eligible Accounts are set forth below but may be
revised from time to time by Lender, in its sole judgment reasonably exercised
on thirty (30) days prior written notice to Borrower. In the event Lender
changes the Criteria for determining which accounts are Eligible Accounts and
Borrower does not agree to such changes, Borrower may, within thirty (30) days
after any such change, terminate this agreement and repay in full, without
penalty, the termination fee provided in paragraph 9.2 hereof, the Obligations
due and owing to Lender. Unless Borrower terminates the agreement and makes
payment in full of the Obligations, the changes in the criteria for determining
Eligible Accounts shall without further notice become effective thirty (30)
days after said change. Accounts which are considered as Eligible Accounts shall
not thereafter be determined as ineligible solely due to a change in the
criteria for determining Eligible Accounts. Accounts will be considered to be
Eligible Accounts if:
<PAGE> 2
2.1.1.1 such accounts arise from bona fide completed transactions and have not
remained unpaid for more than the number of days after the invoice date set
forth in Section 10.2;
2.1.1.2 the amount of the accounts reported to Lender are absolutely owing to
Borrower and do not arise from sales on consignment, guaranteed sale or other
terms under which payment by the account debtors may be conditional or
contingent;
2.1.1.3 the account debtor's chief executive office or principal place of
business is located in the United States;
2.1.1.4 such accounts do not arise from progress billings or retainages or
bill and hold sales;
2.1.1.5 there are no contra relationships, setoffs, counterclaims or disputes
existing with respect thereto and there are no other facts existing or
threatened which would impair or delay the collectibility of all or any portion
thereof;
2.1.1.6 the goods giving rise thereto were not at the time of the sale subject
to any liens except those permitted in this Agreement;
2.1.1.7 such accounts are not accounts with respect to which the account debtor
or any officer or employee thereof is an officer, employee or agent of or is
affiliated with Borrower, directly or indirectly, whether by virtue of family
membership, ownership, control, management or otherwise;
2.1.1.8 such accounts are not accounts with respect to which the account debtor
is the United States or any State or political subdivision thereof or any
department, agency or instrumentality of the United States, any State or
political subdivision, unless there has been compliance with any law, rule or
regulation applicable to The Federal Assignment of Claims Act of 1940, to the
Lender's satisfaction;
2.1.1.9 Borrower shall, within ten (10) days after an Account Advance, or more
frequently, as lender in its discretion may reasonably require, deliver to
Lender or Lender's representative such documents or copies thereof as Borrower
may have in its possession in connection with such accounts and Lender shall
have received a verification of such account, satisfactory to it, if sent to the
account debtor or any other obligor or any bailee;
2.1.1.10 there are no facts known to Borrower, existing or threatened which
might result in any adverse change in the account debtor's financial condition;
2.1.1.11 such accounts owed by a single account debtor or its affiliates do not
represent more than twenty (20%) percent of all otherwise Eligible Accounts
unless Lender in its sole discretion agrees in writing to a greater percentage,
(accounts excluded from Eligible Accounts solely by reason of this subsection
shall nevertheless be considered Eligible Accounts to the extent of the amount
of such accounts which do not exceed fifty (50%) percent of all otherwise
Eligible Accounts);
2.1.1.12 such accounts are not owed by an account debtor who is or whose
affiliates are past due upon other accounts owed to Borrower comprising more
than twenty five (25%) percent of the
2
<PAGE> 3
accounts of such account debtor or its affiliates owed to Borrower;
2.1.1.13 such accounts are owed by account debtors whose total indebtedness to
Borrower does not exceed the amount of any customer credit limits as
established, and changed, from time to time by Lender on notice to Borrower
(accounts excluded from Eligible Accounts solely by reason of this subsection
shall nevertheless be considered Eligible Accounts to the extent the amount of
such accounts does not exceed such customer credit limit); and
2.1.1.14 such accounts are owed by account debtors deemed creditworthy at all
times in the reasonable judgment of Lender.
2.1.2 The "Gross Availability" shall be calculated at any time as the product
obtained by multiplying the outstanding amount of Eligible Accounts, net of all
taxes, discounts, allowances and credits given or claimed, by the Eligible
Accounts Percentage set forth in Section 10.2 and the Eligible Inventory by the
Eligible Inventory Percentage (as herein defined) minus any Reserves as set
forth in 2.15.
2.1.3 The "Maximum Credit" is set forth in Section 10.1.1 hereof.
2.1.4 The "Net Availability" shall be calculated at any time as an amount
equal to the Gross Availability minus the aggregate amount of all then
outstanding Obligations of Borrower to Lender.
2.1.5 Lender shall have a continuing right to deduct reserves in determining
the Gross Availability ("Reserves"), and to increase and decrease such Reserves
from time to time, if and to the extent that, in Lender's reasonable judgment,
such Reserves are necessary to protect Lender against any state of facts which
does, or would, with notice or passage of time or both, constitute an Event of
Default or have an adverse effect on any Collateral. Lender may, at its option,
implement Reserves by designating as ineligible a sufficient amount of accounts
which would otherwise be Eligible Accounts so as to reduce Gross Availability by
the amount of the intended Reserve.
2.1.6 Intentionally Omitted.
2.2 Intentionally Omitted.
2.3 Intentionally Omitted.
2.3.1 Intentionally Omitted.
2.3.2 In addition to the fees and costs of any issuer in connection with
issuing or administering Accommodations, Borrower shall pay monthly to Lender,
on the first day of each month, a charge on open Accommodations at the rate per
annum set forth in Section 10.3.
2.3.3 Intentionally Omitted.
2.4 Lender may, in its sole discretion, make or permit Revolving Loans, other
Obligations in excess of the Maximum Credit, Gross or Net Availability or
applicable formulas or sublimits on such terms and conditions as Lender may
determine. All or any portion
3
<PAGE> 4
of such excess(es) shall become due and payable, at such time that Lender may
determine. Borrower may, upon written notice to Lender, and provided no Event of
Default has occurred, require Lender to reduce the Maximum Credit. Borrower, at
any time, may pay the Obligations without penalty.
3 INTEREST AND FEES

and at the time as specified and detailed in the attachment to this Agreement as

Lender's account at such bank.
5.3 Lender shall render to Borrower, a monthly loan statement as soon as

and substance customarily provided by Lender to each of its Borrowers and shall

mailing of such statement, written notice from Borrower of any specific
exceptions by Borrower to that statement.

Collateral, but without any duty to do so, and Lender shall not be liable for
any failure to collect or enforce payment thereof. At Lender's written request,
all invoices and statements sent to any account debtor, other obligor or bailee,
shall state that the accounts and such other Collateral have been assigned to
Lender and are payable directly and only to Lender.

conditions, any and all accounts or other Collateral which includes a monetary
obligation and discharge or release the account debtor or other obligor, without
affecting any of the Obligations, and
5.5.7 execute in the name of Borrower and file against Borrower in favor of
Lender financing statements or amendments with respect to the Collateral.
5.6 Borrower hereby releases and exculpates Lender, its officers, employees and
designees, from any liability arising from any acts under this Agreement or in
furtherance thereof, whether as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, whether of
omission or commission, and whether based upon any error of judgment or mistake
of law or fact, except for willful misconduct. In no event will Lender have any
liability to Borrower for lost profits or other special or consequential
damages.

instance,

other Collateral which includes a monetary obligation,
5.7.2 compromise or settle any of the accounts or any such other Collateral for
less than the full amount thereof,
5.7.3 or release in whole or in part any account debtor or other person liable

Collateral.

<PAGE> 8
5.8 At such times as Lender may request and in the manner specified by Lender,
Borrower shall deliver to Lender or Lender's representative or designee original
invoices, agreements, proofs of rendition of services and delivery of goods and
other documents evidencing or relating to the transactions which gave rise to
accounts or other Collateral, together with customer statements, schedules
describing the accounts or other Collateral and/or statements of account and
confirmatory assignments to Lender of the accounts or other Collateral, in form
and substance satisfactory to Lender and duly executed by Borrower. Without
limiting the provisions of Section 5.7, Borrower's granting of credits,
discounts, allowances, deductions, return authorizations or the like will be
promptly reported to Lender in writing. In no event shall any such schedule or
confirmatory assignment (or the absence thereof or omission of any of the
accounts or other Collateral therefrom) limit or in any way be construed as a
waiver, limitation or modification of the security interests or rights of Lender
or the warranties, representations and covenants of Borrower under this
Agreement.
5.9 From time to time as requested by Lender, at the sole expense of Borrower,
Lender or its designee shall have access prior to an Event of Default during
reasonable business hours and on or after an Event of Default at any time, to
all of the premises where Collateral is located for the purposes of inspecting
the Collateral, including Borrower's books and records, and Borrower shall
permit Lender or its designee to make such copies of such books and records or
extracts therefrom as Lender may request. Without expense to Lender or its
designee, Lender or its designee may use such of Borrower's personnel,
equipment, including computer equipment, programs, printed output and computer
readable media, supplies and premises for the collection of accounts and
realization on other Collateral as Lender, in its discretion reasonably
exercised, deems appropriate. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes all
accountants and third parties to disclose and deliver to Lender or its designee
at Borrower's expense all financial information, books and records, work papers,
management reports and other information in their possession regarding Borrower.
Prior to an Event of Default, audits by Lender shall be limited to two (2) times
per year.
5.10 Lender shall have received a certificate from the relevant officer of
Borrower to the effect that Borrower knows of no facts which Borrower's computer
systems, software and applications would cause Borrower to reasonably believe
that the Year 2000 Problem would cause a material adverse effect.

fiscal year. Lender may require that annual financial statements be audited by

trade names set forth in Section 10.7 after Lender has received prior written

prior written notice to Lender. Prior to any change in location or opening of
any new place of business, Borrower shall execute and deliver or cause to be
executed and delivered to Lender such financing statements, financing documents
and security and other agreements as Lender may require, including, without
limitation, those described in Section 6.14.

Event of Default, to adjust or settle any claim or other matter under or arising
pursuant to such insurance or to amend or cancel such insurance. Borrower shall
deliver to Lender, in kind, all instruments representing proceeds of insurance
received by Borrower. Lender may apply any insurance proceeds received at any
time to the cost of repairs to or replacement of any portion of the Collateral

Lender and such default continues for ten (10) days after written notice thereof
to Borrower;
7.1.2 Any representation, warranty or statement of fact made by Borrower to

7.1.8 Any petition or application for any relief under the bankruptcy laws of

law or statute of any jurisdiction now or hereafter in effect (whether at law or
in equity) is filed by or against Borrower or any guarantor;
7.1.9 The indictment, which is not dismissed within thirty (30) days after said
filing, of Borrower or any guarantor under any criminal statute, or commencement
or threatened commencement of criminal or civil proceedings against Borrower or
any guarantor, pursuant to which statute or proceedings the penalties or

Borrower or such guarantor;
7.1.10 Any default or event of default under any financing, security or other

performance of the Obligations is impaired or (ii) the Collateral is not
sufficient to fully secure the Obligations.
7.2. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter,
Lender shall have all rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, any other
agreements between Borrower and Lender, the Uniform Commercial Code or other
applicable law, all of which rights and remedies may be exercised without notice
to Borrower, all such notices being hereby waived. All rights and remedies of
Lender are cumulative and not exclusive and are enforceable, in Lender's
discretion, alternatively, successively, concurrently or on any one or more
occasions and in any order Lender may determine. Without limiting the
indebtedness due Lender, Lender or its designee may:
7.2.1 accelerate the payment of all Obligations and demand immediate payment
thereof to Lender or its designee may;
7.2.2 with or without judicial process or the aid or assistance of others,
enter upon any premises on or in which any of the Collateral may be located and
take possession of the Collateral or complete processing, manufacturing and
repair of all or any portion of the Collateral;

any place and time designated by Lender;
7.2.4 collect, foreclose, receive, appropriate, setoff and realize of,
compromise or settle for cash, credit, return of merchandise, and upon any terms
or conditions, any and all
14
<PAGE> 15
accounts or other Collateral which includes a monetary obligation and discharge
or release the account debtor or other obligor, without affecting any of the
Obligations;
7.2.5 sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and
all Collateral (including, without limitation, entering into contracts with
respect thereto, by public or private sales at any exchange, broker's board, any
office of Lender or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as Lender may deem
reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with the Lender having
the right to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such
public sale, all of the foregoing being free from any right or equity of
redemption of Borrower, which right or equity of redemption is, to the extent
permitted by law, hereby expressly waived and released by Borrower. If any of
the Collateral is sold or leased by Lender upon credit terms or for future
delivery, the Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until payment
therefor is finally collected by Lender. If notice of disposition of Collateral
is required by law, seven (7) days prior notice by Lender to Borrower
designating the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any
private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be
deemed to be reasonable notice thereof and Borrower waives any other notice. In
the event Lender institutes any action to recover any Collateral or seeks
recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment remedy, Borrower waives the
posting of any bond which might otherwise be required.
7.3 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 any of the Obligations, in whole or in part (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and legal expenses incurred by Lender with respect thereto or
otherwise chargeable to Borrower) and in such order as Lender may elect, whether
or not then due. Borrower shall remain liable to Lender for the payment of any
deficiency together with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and
all costs and expenses of connection or enforcement, including reasonable
attorneys' fees and legal expenses.
7.4 Lender may, at its option, cure any default by Borrower under any agreement
with a third party or pay or bond on appeal any judgment entered against
Borrower, discharge taxes, liens, security interest or other encumbrances at any
time levied on or existing with respect to the Collateral and pay any amount,
incur any expense or perform any act which, in Lender's sole judgment is
necessary or appropriate to preserve, protect, insure, maintain, or realize upon
the Collateral. Lender may charge Borrower's loan account for any amounts so
expended, such amounts to be repayable by Borrower on demand. Lender shall be
under no obligation to effect such cure, payment, bonding or discharge, and
shall not, by doing so, be deemed to have assumed any obligation or liability of
Borrower.

class mail directed to Borrower at its chief executive office set forth herein
or other address thereof of which Lender has received notice as provided herein,
service to be deemed complete five (5) days after mailing, or as permitted under
the rules of either of said Courts. Any such action or proceeding commenced by
Borrower against Lender will be litigated only in a Federal Court located in the
district, or a State Court in the State and County, in which the office of
Lender designated in Section 10.6 is located and Borrower waive any objection
based on forum non convenes and any objection to venue in connection therewith.
8.4. Lender shall not, by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to
have expressly or impliedly waived any of its rights or remedies unless such
waiver shall be in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Lender. A
waiver by Lender of any right or remedy on any one occasion shall not be
construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right or remedy which Lender would
otherwise have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise.
8.5. In consideration of Lender's entering into this Agreement and making the
accommodations provided for herein, Borrower hereby agrees that Lender shall be

rights and remedies otherwise available to Lender as provided
16

herein, or in any documents related hereto, or as otherwise provided by law; in

reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation,
dissolution, or similar relief under any present or future federal or state act
or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or relief for debtors.

Agreement shall not be assignable nor inure to the successors and assigns of
Borrower.

in the amount set forth in 10.4 hereof which Commitment Fee is fully earned on

Mr. Charles R. Drummond
Chairman and CEO
Quality Care Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
3000 Warner Ave.
Santa Ana, CA 92704
Re: Sect. 6.13.2 - Payment of Dividends
Sect. 6.13.3 - Payment of Principal or Interest
Dear Mr. Drummond:
In reference to Section 6.13.2 of the Loan and Security Agreement dated
April 2, 1999 for Quality Care Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Golden
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., ALCO Financial Services, LLC, the Lender, hereby
grants permission to Borrower to pay the dividends on Convertible Preferred
Stock of the Borrower without separate consent. (The initial 6% per annum
quarterly payment on the $1,000,000.00 - currently outstanding is due May
31, 1999.)
This section is waived from the document with the provision that such
payment of such dividend or any future dividends for the Convertible
Preferred Stock of Borrower or any future Preferred Stock dividends does not
negatively impact the working capital of the Borrower to such a position
that any accounts payable, the Lender's interest or principal or any other
normal business expenses which would be handled by the company in a normal
course of business are impaired. The Lender does agree that approval under
this section would not be unreasonably withheld from the Borrower.
In reference to section 6.13.3, see above, the provision for waiver would
be the same as stated above with the exception that such payment would be
approved prior to such transaction by the Lender. The Lender does agree that
approval under this section would not be unreasonably withheld from the
Borrower.
The lender acknowledges Sale of other assets, section 6.7.1 with the
understanding that prior to completion of such sale Lender reserves right to
review such action and will not unreasonably withhold approval. The Lender
acknowledges the Borrower will be forming additional LLCs, with respect to
section 6.7.3. The Lender reserves right to review such action and will not
unreasonably withhold approval.
These waivers to each section are provisional that in no way such action
under each of these sections would impair the working capital position of
the company, decrease the value of any collateral pledge nor change the term
or conditions of the documentation for the loan for Quality Care
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Golden Pharmaceuticals, Inc. with ALCO Financial
Services LLC.
Sincerely yours,
/s/ JAMES D. KENDALL

Financing Agreements (the "Obligations"), including, without limitation, all
amounts owing under this Note, may, as provided in the Loan Agreement, be
declared or shall forthwith become due and payable, together with all
interest accrued thereon and with interest accruing thereafter at the then

evidenced by this Note is paid in full, plus the costs and expenses of
collection hereof, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees
and legal expenses.
Debtor (i) waives diligence, demand, presentment, protest and notice of
any kind, (ii) agrees that it will not be necessary to first institute suit

against any Debtor is expressly hereby waived by Debtor. Upon or after
maturity of this Note, or any Event of Default or termination of the Loan
Agreement, Payee, shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Loan
Agreement, but not the obligation, to set off against this Note all money
owed by Payee to Debtor.

OR OTHERWISE, AND DEBTOR HEREBY CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION
OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT
DEBTOR OR PAYEE MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH
WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO
THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
In the event any term or provision of this Note conflicts with any term
or provision of the Loan Agreement, such term or provision of the Loan
Agreement shall control.
