The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Board of

Board permits. Each class is elected for a term of three years. The Company's
Board of Directors presently consists of four members. Deborah A. Lau and

Officers are elected by the Board of Directors and may be removed at
any time by the Board. The officers of the Company are elected annually by the
Board of Directors at its meeting held immediately after the annual meeting of
the stockholders, and hold their respective offices until their successors are
duly elected and qualified.
Stockholders of the Company who, at April 25, 1997, owned an
aggregate of 733,392 shares of Common Stock (including 287,602 shares owned by a
partnership in which a limited partnership controlled by Dr. Elkins is a general
partner and is afforded sole voting power) are parties to a Voting Agreement
(the "Voting Agreement") with Dr. Elkins, in which such stockholders have agreed
that, during the ten-year term of the Voting Agreement (which was effective
January 26, 1996), at all meetings of stockholders and in all written consents
of stockholders, they will vote all Common Stock owned by them in the same
manner as Common Stock owned by Dr. Elkins (846,235 shares) is voted by him.
Each such stockholder has also irrevocably appointed Dr. Elkins as proxy to
represent and vote all shares of Common Stock of such stockholder at any meeting
of stockholders of the Company and in all actions taken by written consent of
stockholders. Common Stock owned by such stockholders will cease to be subject
to the Voting Agreement following any sale thereof in an underwritten public
offering pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or in a sale under
Rule 144 promulgated under such Act. In addition, Equity-Linked Investors, L.P.
("ELI-I") and Equity-Linked Investors II ("ELI-II") have entered into a
Stockholders' Agreement with Dr. Elkins and the Company (the "Stockholders'
Agreement"), pursuant to which ELI-I and ELI-II are collectively entitled to
designate two nominees to the Company's Board of Directors. Dr. Elkins has
agreed, pursuant to the Stockholders' Agreement, to vote all shares over which
he has voting control for the election of such nominees. If the collective
ownership of ELI-I and ELI-II falls below 665,907 shares, they will be entitled
to one board nominee so long as they own any shares of Common Stock. ELI-I and
ELI-II, which currently own an aggregate of 1,331,814 shares of the Company's
Common Stock, have had no designees sitting on the Board since June 1996. See
"Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management" in Item 12 of
this Report.
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
requires the Company's executive officers and directors, and persons who
beneficially own more than 10% of the Company's Common Stock, to timely file
initial statements of stock ownership and statements of changes of beneficial
ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and furnish copies of
those statements to the Company. Based solely on a review of the copies of the
statements furnished to the Company to date, or written representations that no
statements were required, the Company believes that all statements required to
be filed by such persons with respect to the Company's fiscal year ended
December 31, 1996 were timely filed, except that Messrs. Damon Ball, Rohit Desai
and Daniel Pine, former directors of the Company, were late in filing reports
covering the

automatic grant of options to them in 1996 under the Company's 1995 Non-Employee
Director Stock Option Plan.

(2) Except as otherwise indicated, bonuses are reflected in the year to which
they relate even if paid in a subsequent year.
(3) None of the Named Officers received prequisites or other personal benefits
in an amount large enough to require reporting, nor did any of them
receive any other compensation required to be reported, in this column
under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules.

(4) Represents a bonus paid to Mr. Singleton as an inducement to enter into an
employment agreement and join the Company ($70,000) and to reimburse Mr.
Singleton for vacation pay forfeited by reason of leaving his prior
employment ($6,110).
(5) In connection with the termination of Dr. Singleton's employment, options

coverage of $1,275 for Dr. Singleton, $1,615 for Ms. Lau, $404 for Mr.
Krystopowicz and $19,062 for Mr. Fater; and (b) the full amount ($125,000)
of vested and unvested Company contributions under the Company's
Supplemental Deferred Compensation Plan ("SDCP") allocated during 1996 to
each of Dr. Singleton, Ms. Lau, Mr. Krystopowic and Mr. Fater. In

Common Stock on the date Mr. Creasman paid for the 64,693 shares of Common
Stock purchased by him and the consideration paid by him for such shares.
Under federal income tax rules, these shares may be deemed to be
restricted stock awards. In 1995, Mr. Creasman's Employment Agreement was
amended in a manner so that the shares were no longer considered
restricted stock under those rules. The difference between the fair market
value of such shares on the date of the amendment and the amount paid by
Mr. Creasman for such shares was approximately $354,000, which amount is
taxable to Mr. Creasman. The Company loaned Mr. Creasman $141,600 to pay
the estimated income taxes, which loans were discharged in 1997 in
connection with the settlement of a lawsuit commenced by Mr. Creasman
against the Company. See "--Termination Agreements," below, and "Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions" in Item 13 of this Report.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
Directors of the Company receive no cash compensation for services
rendered as directors. The Company's 1995 Non-Employee Director Stock Option
Plan (the "Non-Employee Director Plan") provides for the automatic grant of
options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at the time a non-employee
director initially is elected to the Board and 5,000 shares to each non-employee
director in office immediately following the conclusion of each annual meeting
of stockholders at which directors are elected. Options granted under this plan
have a ten-year term and are exercisable in three equal semi-annual
installments, on a cumulative basis, commencing six months following the date of
grant, subject to early termination in certain instances, at an exercise price
equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant.
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
The Company is presently a party to Employment Agreements (the
"Employment Agreements") with each of Deborah A. Lau and William J.
Krystopowicz.
The Company's Employment Agreement with Ms. Lau provides for a term
of three years commencing October 2, 1995, with automatic one-year extensions on
each anniversary thereof unless either party elects not to so extend by giving
written notice at least 90 days prior to such anniversary date. Ms. Lau's
current base salary is $237,659 per annum, subject to increase annually by a
percentage equal to the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index and such
additional amounts as may be determined at the discretion of the Company's Chief
Executive Officer. In addition, Ms. Lau may also receive annual bonuses at the
discretion of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, subject to a maximum amount
equal to 35% of base salary per annum (and a minimum of $56,250 for the year
ended December 31, 1996). Since Ms. Lau has become Chief Executive Officer of
the Company, the Company intends to have determinations as to salary increases
and bonuses made by either the full Board of Directors or the Compensation and
Options Committee of the Board. Ms. Lau's Employment Agreement provides that the
Company may terminate her employment for, among other reasons, cause (as
defined) by continuing to pay Ms. Lau her then current base salary for a period
of 18 months provided that if, at the time, less than 18 months remains on the
term of her Employment Agreement, such base salary shall continue for the longer
of the remaining term of her Employment Agreement or 12 months.
-7-
<PAGE>
The Company's Employment Agreement with Mr. Krystopowicz provided for
an initial term extending through December 31, 1998, with automatic one-year
extensions on each January 1 (so that the term is then three years) unless
either party elects not to so extend by giving written notice prior to such
anniversary date. The current base salary under Mr. Krystopowicz's Employment
Agreement is $184,860, subject to increase annually by a percentage equal to the
percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index and such additional amounts as
may be determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Mr.
Krystopowicz's Employment Agreement provides that the Company may terminate his
employment for, among other things, cause (as defined) by continuing to pay Mr.
Krystopowicz his then current base salary for a period of 18 months. Either
party shall have the right, at any time upon 180 days' notice, to terminate the
Employment Agreement without cause. In the event of such termination, the
Company is to continue to pay Mr. Krystopowicz his then current base salary for
the remaining scheduled term of his Employment Agreement. In addition, in the
event that either party voluntarily terminates the Employment Agreement, the
Company may elect to continue the non-competition restrictions contained therein
for a period of up to 18 months by paying to Mr. Krystopowicz an amount equal to
100% of his then current base salary for each month the non-competition
restrictions are to be in effect.
In the event of a "change of control" of the Company (as defined),
Ms. Lau and Mr. Krystopowicz each have the right, upon giving 30 days' notice to
the Company within 180 days following such event (or, if terminated by the
Company during such 180 day period), to terminate his or her employment in which
event the executive shall be entitled to receive his or her then base salary for
a period of 36 months following the date of such termination and all stock
options then held by the executive shall become fully vested. A "change of
control" of the Company is deemed to occur under the Employment Agreements, in
general: (i) when a person, other than Robert N. Elkins or an institutional
investor, becomes the "beneficial owner" of 20% or more of the Company's Common
Stock, (ii) in the event of certain mergers or consolidations in which the
Company is not the surviving entity, (iii) in the event of the sale, lease or
transfer of substantially all of the Company's assets or the liquidation of the
Company or (iv) if Robert N. Elkins ceases to be a director of the Company.
Each executive is also entitled to participate in the Company's
employee benefit plans. Whenever the executive is entitled to receive a
continuation of salary following termination or nonrenewal of employment, he or
she is also entitled to receive a continuation of the executive's automobile
allowance and any hospital or major medical insurance during the period of
salary continuation.
Each of the Employment Agreements contains covenants by the employee
to, among other things, maintain the confidentiality of trade secrets of the
Company, as well as covenants not to solicit employees or customers of the
Company and, during specified periods, not to be employed or have certain other
relationships with entities which are directly in the business of owning,
operating or managing businesses which compete with certain aspects of the
Company's business.
TERMINATION AGREEMENTS
Effective April 19, 1996, Mr. Kenneth W. Creasman, who was then
serving as President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company,
resigned. By letter agreement dated April 23, 1996 between the Company and Mr.
Creasman, except for the provisions concerning confidentiality of trade secrets,
non-solicitation of employees and customers and non-competition, Mr. Creasman's
Employment Agreement, which extended through January 1, 1999 and under which Mr.
Creasman's annual salary was then $290,821, was terminated. In lieu thereof, Mr.
Creasman agreed to be available as a consultant to the Company by telephone
regarding proposed and recently completed acquisitions by the Company for a
period of 18 months at a monthly consulting fee of $24,136. The Company also
agreed to continue Mr. Creasman's employee health benefit package at the
-8-
<PAGE>
Company's expense for a period of 18 months or until he secures other employment
with comparable benefits, whichever is earlier. The letter agreement also
provided that, notwithstanding the provisions of his option agreements, options
to purchase 28,147 shares became vested and, together with options to purchase
30,183 shares which had already vested, remain exercisable for 180 days. The
remaining options held by Mr. Creasman (to purchase 28,157 shares of Common
Stock) were terminated. All options have now expired unexercised. On January 30,
1997, as part of a settlement of a lawsuit instituted by Mr. Creasman against
the Company, the consulting arrangement and the Company's agreement to continue
health care benefits was terminated. See also "Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions" in Item 13 of this Report.
Effective April 4, 1997, Dr. Gary W. Singleton, who replaced Mr.
Creasman as President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company,
resigned. By letter agreement dated that date, the Company and Dr. Singleton
agreed to terminate Dr. Singleton's Employment Agreement which had been entered
on April 19, 1996, except for the provisions concerning the confidentiality of
trade secrets, non-solicitation of employees and customers and non-competition.
Dr. Singleton's Employment Agreement provided for, among other things, an annual
salary of $300,000 (subject to annual increases) and extended through April
1999, subject to the Company's right to terminate the Employment Agreement
earlier by making certain future payments to Dr. Singleton. In lieu thereof, Dr.
Singleton is receiving severance pay of $154,500, payable in installments over
eleven months (and evidenced by a non-interest bearing promissory note), and
received $25,000 in satisfaction of his rights under the Company's Supplemental
Deferred Compensation Plan (evidenced by six-month promissory note bearing
interest at 7% per annum). All amounts due Dr. Singleton accelerate in the event
of a sale of the Company. The Company also agreed to continue Dr. Singleton's
employee health benefit package at the Company's expense for a period of six
months. The letter agreement also provides of the options to purchase shares of
the Company's Common Stock held by Dr. Singleton, options to purchase 25,000
shares (which were scheduled to vest in part on April 19, 1997 and in part on
May 31, 1997) would immediately vest. Unless exercised on or before July 3,
1997, the vested options will expire on that date. The remaining options held by
Dr. Singleton (to purchase 75,000 shares of Common Stock) terminated in
accordance with their terms.
Effective January 31, 1997, Mr. David H. Fater, Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, resigned. By letter
agreement dated that date, the Company and Mr. Fater agreed to terminate Mr.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
The Compensation and Options Committee, which currently consists of
Messrs. John L. Silverman and Dr. Robert N. Elkins, has power and authority with
respect to all matters pertaining to compensation payable by the Company and the
administration of employee benefits, deferred compensation and stock plans of
the Company.
Robert N. Elkins and John L. Silverman are directors of IHS. Dr.
Elkins is also the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of IHS.
Pursuant to a January 19, 1994 Consulting Agreement, during the
-9-
<PAGE>
year ended December 31, 1996, the Company paid Symphony Health Care Consulting,
Inc. ("SHCC"), a subsidiary of IHS, approximately $148,000 for services rendered
to the Company for consulting, training and cost reporting services with respect
to the Company's third party Medicare reimbursement operations. SHCC provides
similar services to a number of unrelated companies at similar rates. In 1996,
the Company paid Symphony Rehabilitation Services and Symphony Pharmacy
Services, wholly-owned subsidiaries of IHS, $162,000 for therapy and $98,000 for
pharmacy services, respectively. The Company believes that the terms on which
these services have been and are being provided are as favorable to the Company
as could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
On December 27, 1996, the Company and IHS entered into a Management
Agreement (the "Management Agreement") pursuant to which the Company is
employing IHS to supervise, manage and operate the financial, accounting, MIS,
reimbursement and ancillary services contracting functions for the Company until
December 31, 2001. The Management Agreement provides for the Company to pay to
IHS for its services, until December 31, 1997, an amount equal to the lesser of
2% of the Company's gross revenues (as defined) or the Company's annualized cost
of performing those services itself based on the period July 1, 1996 through
December 31, 1996. Thereafter, the management fee payable to IHS is to be the
lesser of 2% of the Company's gross revenues or a percentage of gross revenues
determined by comparing the Company's cost of performing such functions during
the period July 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996 to its gross revenues for that
period. The gross revenues percentage which is fixed may be increased from 2.0%
to 2.5% by mutual agreement of the parties following IHS's review of the
Company.
At that time, the Company and IHS Financial Holdings, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of IHS, also entered into a loan agreement which, as
amended on January 13, 1997, entitles the Company to borrow, until December 27,
1998, amounts on a revolving credit basis so that no more than $5.0 million is
outstanding at any time. Loan advances are subject to the consent of IHS to the
making of advances, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. This
revolving credit facility bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the annual
rate of interest set forth in IHS's revolving credit agreement with Citibank,
N.A., plus 2%. Repayment of amounts advanced under this line of credit are
subordinated to the payment of up to an aggregate of $30 million of principal
and interest on the Company's obligations to its two principal unaffiliated
third party lenders. At April 15, 1997, the Company had outstanding borrowings
aggregating $4.5 million under this facility which, at that date, was bearing
interest at the rate of 10.5% per annum.
In connection with entering into the revolving credit facility, the
Company issued to IHS warrants to purchase an aggregate of 752,182 shares of the
Company's Common Stock, one-half of which are exercisable until January 13, 1999
at $3.22 per share (the average of the high and low trading prices of the
Company's Common Stock on January 14 and 15, 1997) and the remaining one-half of
which are exercisable until January 13, 2002 at $6.44 per share.
On April 14, 1997, IHS agreed to guarantee certain obligations of the
Company to the Company's principal revolving credit lender and to the lender
which has financed the Company's major acquisitions. To induce IHS to issue such
guarantees, the Company agreed to reimburse IHS for such amounts paid by IHS on
behalf of the Company, including costs, fees and expenses, and to pay IHS
interest at the rate of 15% per annum on all amounts which become owing to IHS
from the Company with respect thereto. In connection therewith, the Company also
issued warrants to IHS to purchase an aggregate of 379,900 shares of the
Company's Common Stock until April 15, 2002 at $1.9375 per share (the closing
price of the Company's Common Stock on April 14, 1997).

<PAGE>
The number of shares subject to each of the above warrants and the
exercise prices are subject to adjustment in certain instances, including if the
Company issues shares of Common Stock (or securities convertible into Common
Stock) at less than the applicable exercise price. In connection therewith, the
Company has granted to IHS certain rights to cause the shares issuable upon
exercise of the warrants to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, at the Company's expense.

ITEM 13: CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
During the period from August 1993 through January 1994, Messrs.
Creasman and Krystopowicz purchased 64,693 and 32,346 shares of Common Stock,
respectively, at purchase prices of $4.64 per share. In connection with their
purchases, the Company loaned Mr. Creasman $220,000 ($70,000 of which was repaid
in February 1995 through the payment of a bonus to Mr. Creasman) and Mr.
Krystopowicz $75,000. Each outstanding loan is evidenced by a promissory note
(the "Stock Purchase Loans") bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum and
payable on February 1, 1997. The Company has tentatively agreed to extend the
date of this note to September 1, 1997. In addition, under the terms of the
arrangement pursuant to which Mr. Creasman's Employment Agreement was
terminated, the Company loaned to Mr. Creasman $141,600 to pay estimated income
taxes payable with respect to the shares purchased by him which may be deemed to
have been restricted stock under Federal income tax rules. Such loan which bore
interest at the rate of 9% per annum and was payable on the third anniversary of
its issuance. The Company also agreed, subject to obtaining approval of its
senior secured lender, to repurchase 34,193 of Mr. Creasman's Common Stock in
exchange for the cancellation of the remaining balance of his Stock Purchase
Loan, the Additional Loan and $33,233 of accrued interest. On January 30, 1997,
as part of a settlement of a lawsuit instituted by Creasman against the Company,
the Stock Purchase Loan and Additional Loan to Mr. Creasman (aggregating
$291,600) were cancelled. See "Executive Compensation -- Termination Agreements"
in Item 11 of this Report.
On June 14, 1996, the Company loaned $250,000 to Ms. Deborah A. Lau,
which loan bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum and is to be payable in
full, together with interest, on June 14, 2001. In the event of the termination
of Ms. Lau's employment following a change-in-control of the Company, any
severance payments payable to Ms. Lau under her Employment Agreement (see
"Executive Compensation -- Employment Agreements" in Item 11 of this Report)
will be applied as an offset against any principal or interest outstanding under
the note evidencing this loan.
The Company retained Blass & Driggs, of which law firm Michael S.
Blass, a director of the Company, is a member, as counsel during 1996 and is
retaining that law firm during 1997. Fees paid to Blass & Driggs during 1996
were $550,000.

2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT
2.1 MANNER OF EXERCISE. At any time and from time to time after the
earliest of (A) the date of the satisfaction by the Company of the principal
outstanding in excess of the Basic Borrowing Amount pursuant to the Loan and
Security Agreement, (B) the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan and
Security Agreement and (C) April 1, 1998 until 5:00 P.M., New York time, on the
Expiration Date (the "Exercise Period"), Holder may exercise this Warrant, on
any Business Day, for all or any part of the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable hereunder on such date.
In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, Holder shall
deliver to the Company at its principal office at 3050 North Horshoe Drive,
Suite 260, Naples, Florida 34104 or at the office or agency designated by the
Company pursuant to Section 12, (i) a written notice of Holder's election to
exercise this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of shares of Common
Stock to be purchased, (ii) payment of the Warrant Price and (iii) this Warrant;
provided, that any notice of exercise given hereunder may be made contingent
upon the happening of, and effective concurrently with the effectiveness of, any
event, including, without limitation, the participation of any Holder in or
closing of any public offering proposed to be effected by the Company, if such
contingency and such event are specified in such notice. Such notice shall be
substantially in the form of the subscription form appearing at the end of this
Warrant as Exhibit A, duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon
receipt thereof, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event
within five (5) Business Days thereafter, execute or cause to be executed and
deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the aggregate number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon
such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as
hereinafter provided. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall
be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as such Holder
shall request in the notice and shall be registered in the name of Holder or,
subject to Section 9, such other name as shall be designated in the notice. This
Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or
certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other Person
so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of
record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the notice, together with
the cash or check or checks and this Warrant, is received by the Company as
described above and all taxes required to be paid by Holder, if any, pursuant to
Section 2.3 prior to the issuance of such shares have been paid. If this Warrant
shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of
the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Stock, deliver to Holder a
new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares
of Common Stock called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other
respects be identical with this Warrant, or, at the request of Holder,
appropriate notation may be made on this Warrant and the same returned to
Holder. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall
not be required to register shares in the name of any Person who acquired this
Warrant (or part hereof) or any Warrant Stock otherwise than in accordance with
this Warrant. Payment of the Warrant Price shall be made at the option of the
Holder by certified or official bank check.

2.2 CASHLESS EXERCISE. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in
Section 2.1, if, at any time during the Exercise Period, the Current Market
Price of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Current Warrant Price (at
the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant
(or any portion thereof) for cash, the Holder may elect to convert such Warrant
(or portion thereof) into the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being
canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company
together with written notice of such election (pursuant to the Conversion Form
attached hereto as Exhibit C), in which event the Company shall issue to Holder
a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A-B)
A
where
X= the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder upon
conversion of this Warrant (or portion thereof) pursuant to this
Section 2.1
Y= the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under this Warrant,
or if only a portion of this Warrant is being exercised, the portion
of this Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation)
A= the Current Market Price of one share of Common Stock (at the date of
such calculation)
B= the Current Warrant Price (as adjusted to the date of such
calculation)
2.3 PAYMENT OF TAXES. All shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable and without any preemptive rights. The Company
shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental
charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issue or delivery thereof,
unless such tax or charge is imposed by law upon Holder, in which case such
taxes or charges shall be paid by Holder. The Company shall not be required,
however, to pay any tax or other charge imposed in connection with any transfer
involved in the issue of any certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant in any name other than that of Holder.
2.4 FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue a
fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrant. As to any
fraction of a share which the Holder of one or more Warrants, the rights under
which are exercised in the same transaction, would otherwise be entitled to
purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect
of such final fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Current
Market Price per share of Common Stock on the date of exercise.

2.5 CONTINUED VALIDITY. A holder of shares of Common Stock issued
upon the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part (other than a holder who
acquires such shares after the same have been publicly sold pursuant to a
Registration Statement under the Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144
thereunder), shall continue to be entitled with respect to such shares to all
rights to which it would have been entitled as Holder under Sections 9, 10 and
16 of this Warrant. The Company will, at the time of each exercise of this
Warrant, in whole or in part, upon the request of the holder of the shares of
Common Stock issued upon such exercise hereof, acknowledge in writing, in form
reasonably satisfactory to such holder, its continuing obligation to afford to
such holder all such rights; provided, however, that if such holder shall fail
to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing
obligation of the Company to afford to such holder all such rights.
3. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION
3.1 TRANSFER. Subject to compliance with Section 9, transfer of this
Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be registered on
the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of
this Warrant at the principal office of the Company referred to in Section 2.1
or the office or agency designated by the Company pursuant to Section 12,
together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form of
Exhibit B hereto duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney and funds
sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer.
Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall, subject
to Section 9, execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the
assignee or assignees and in the denomination specified in such instrument of
assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion
of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A
Warrant, if properly assigned in compliance with Section 9, may be exercised by
a new Holder for the purchase of shares of Common Stock without having a new
Warrant issued.
3.2 DIVISION AND COMBINATION. Subject to Section 9, this Warrant may
be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the
aforesaid office or agency of the Company, together with a written notice
specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued,
signed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section
3.1 and with Section 9, as to any transfer which may be involved in such
division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in
accordance with such notice.
3.3 EXPENSES. The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own

4. ADJUSTMENTS
The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable and the Current Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from
time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The Company shall give each Holder
notice of any event described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to
this Section 4 at the time of such event in accordance with Section 5.1.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4, no adjustment under
this Section 4 (other than subsection 4.1(c)) shall increase the Current Warrant
Price or decrease the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable except for (i) any rescission adjustment required to be made
pursuant to the first sentence of Section 4.6 and (ii) any adjustment required
to be made pursuant to Section 4.11.
4.1 STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATIONS. If any time the
Company shall:
(a) take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for
the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or
other distribution of, Additional Shares of Common Stock,
(b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into
a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or
(c) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares of Common Stock,
then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted
to equal the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to
receive after the happening of such event, and (ii) the Current Warrant Price
shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Current Warrant Price multiplied by the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares for
which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment.
4.2 CERTAIN OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. If at any time the Company shall
take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling
them to receive any dividend or other distribution of:
(a) cash (other than a cash distribution or dividend
payable out of earnings for the year in which such dividend was
declared or earned surplus legally available for the payment of
dividends under the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the
Company),
<PAGE>
9
(b) any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its
stock or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(other than cash, Convertible Securities or Additional Shares of
Common Stock), or
(c) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or
purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its stock
or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other
than cash, Convertible Securities or Additional Shares of Common
Stock),
then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable shall be increased to equal the product of the number of shares of
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
adjustment multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the
Current Market Price per share of Common Stock at the date of taking such record
and (B) the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price per share of
Common Stock minus the amount of cash and the amount (as determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and supported by an opinion from
an investment banking firm of recognized national standing acceptable to the
Majority Holders) of any and all such evidences of indebtedness, shares of
stock, other securities or property or warrants or other subscription or
purchase rights distributable to a holder of one share of Common Stock, and (ii)
the Current Warrant Price shall be reduced to equal (A) the Current Warrant
Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant
is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of
shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment;
provided, that if the event requiring adjustment by this Section 4.2 would cause
the Current Warrant Price to be equal to or less than $0, no such adjustment
shall be made and the Company shall distribute to each Holder such cash, any and
all evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or
warrants or other subscription or purchase rights that would be distributable to
such Holder had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such
distribution. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par
value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value) into
shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock shall be deemed a
distribution by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock of such shares of
such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 4.2 and, if the
outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or smaller
number of shares of Common Stock as a part of such reclassification, such change
shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of Section 4.1.
4.3 ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK. (a) If at any time
the Company shall (except as hereinafter provided) issue or sell any Additional
Shares of Common Stock, other than Permitted Issuances, in exchange for
consideration in an amount per Additional Share of Common Stock less than the
Current Warrant Price at the time the Additional Shares of Common Stock are
issued, then (i) the Current Warrant Price as to the number of shares for which
this Warrant is exercisable prior to such adjustment shall be reduced to a price
determined by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the number of
shares of Common Stock
<PAGE>
10
Outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale multiplied by the then
existing Current Warrant Price, and (y) the consideration, if any, received by
the Company upon such issue or sale, by (B) the total number of shares of Common
Stock Outstanding immediately after such issue or sale; and (ii) the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be increased
to equal the product obtained by multiplying the Current Warrant Price in effect
immediately prior to such issue or sale by the number of shares of Common Stock
for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such issue or sale
and dividing the product thereof by the Current Warrant Price resulting from the
adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) above.
(b) If at any time the Company shall (except as hereinafter provided)
issue or sell any Additional Shares of Common Stock, other than Permitted
Issuances, for consideration in an amount per Additional Share of Common Stock
less than the Current Market Price, then (i) the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be increased to equal the
product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such issue or sale by a
fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock Outstanding immediately after such issue or sale, and (B) the denominator
of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately
prior to such issue or sale plus the number of shares which the aggregate
offering price of the total number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock
would purchase at the then Current Market Price; and (ii) the Current Warrant
Price as to the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable prior to
such adjustment shall be reduced to a price determined by multiplying such
Current Warrant Price by a fraction (X) the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
issue or sale; and (Y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable immediately after such issue or sale.
(c) If at any time the Company (except as hereinafter provided) shall
issue or sell any Additional Shares of Common Stock, other than Permitted
Issuances, in exchange for consideration in an amount per Additional Shares of
Common Stock which is less than the Current Warrant Price and Current Market
Price at the time the Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued, the
adjustment required under this Section 4.3 shall be made in accordance with the
formula in paragraph (a) or (b) above which results in the lower Current Warrant
Price following such adjustment. The provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of
Section 4.3 shall not apply to any issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock
for which an adjustment is provided under Section 4.1 or 4.2. No adjustment of
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant shall be exercisable
shall be made under paragraph (a) or (b) of Section 4.3 upon the issuance of any
Additional Shares of Common Stock which are issued pursuant to the exercise of
any warrants or other subscription or purchase rights or pursuant to the
exercise of any conversion or exchange rights in any Convertible Securities, if
any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such
warrants or other rights or upon the issuance of such Convertible Securities (or
upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefor) pursuant to Section
4.4 or Section 4.5.
<PAGE>
11
(d) If any Additional Shares of Common Stock, other than Permitted
Issuances, are issued or sold in exchange for consideration in an amount per
Additional Share of Common Stock equal to or greater than the Current Warrant
Price and the Current Market Price at the time the Additional Shares are issued,
then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable shall be increased to equal the product obtained by multiplying the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (A) the numerator of which
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately after the
issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock, and (B) the denominator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately
prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the
Current Warrant Price as to the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable prior to such adjustment shall not change but the Current
Warrant Price for each of the incremental number of shares of Common Stock for
which this Warrant becomes exercisable after such adjustment shall be equal to
the amount of such consideration per Additional Share of Common Stock.
4.4 ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS OR OTHER RIGHTS. If at any time the Company
shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether
directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Company is the surviving
corporation) issue or sell, any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or
purchase any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities,
whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately
exercisable, then the Current Warrant Price and the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable shall be adjusted as provided
in Section 4.3 on the basis that the maximum number of Additional Shares of
Common Stock issuable pursuant to all such warrants or other rights or necessary
to effect the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be
deemed to have been issued and outstanding and the Company shall have received
all of the consideration payable therefor, if any, as of the date of the actual
issuance of such warrants or other rights. No further adjustments of the Current
Warrant Price or the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable
shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock or of such Convertible
Securities upon exercise of such warrants or other rights or upon the actual
issue of such Common Stock upon such conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities.
4.5 ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If at any time the Company
shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether
directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Company is the surviving
corporation) issue or sell, any Convertible Securities, whether or not the
rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, then the
Current Warrant Price and the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is then exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in Section 4.3 on the
basis that the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock necessary to
effect the conversions or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be
deemed to have been issued and outstanding and the Company shall have received
all of the consideration payable therefor, if any, as of the date of actual
issuance
<PAGE>
12
of such Convertible Securities. No adjustment of the Current Warrant Price or
the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made under
this Section 4.5 upon the issuance of any Convertible Securities which are
issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other subscription or
purchase rights therefor, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made
upon the issuance of such warrants or other rights pursuant to Section 4.4. No
further adjustments of the Current Warrant Price or the number of shares for
which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made upon the actual issue of such
Additional Shares of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon
exercise of such warrants or other rights or upon the actual issue of such
Additional Shares of Common Stock upon such conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities.
4.6 SUPERSEDING ADJUSTMENT. If, at any time after any adjustment of
the Current Warrant Price and the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is exercisable shall have been made pursuant to Section 4.4 or
Section 4.5 as the result of any issuance of warrants, rights or Convertible
Securities,
(a) such warrants or rights, or the right of conversion or
exchange in such other Convertible Securities, shall expire, and all
or a portion of such warrants or rights, or the right of conversion
or exchange with respect to all or a portion of such other
Convertible Securities, as the case may be, shall not have been
exercised, or
(b) the consideration per share for which shares of Common
Stock are issuable pursuant to such warrants or rights, or the terms
of such other Convertible Securities, shall be increased or decreased
solely by virtue of provisions therein contained for an automatic
increase or decrease in such consideration per share upon the
occurrence of a specified date or event,
then such previous adjustment shall be rescinded and annulled and the Additional
Shares of Common Stock which were deemed to have been issued by virtue of the
computation made in connection with the adjustment so rescinded and annulled
shall no longer be deemed to have been issued by virtue of such computation.
Thereupon, a recomputation shall be made of the effect of such warrants or
rights or other Convertible Securities on the basis of
(c) treating the number of Additional Shares of Common
Stock or other property, if any, theretofore actually issued or
issuable pursuant to the previous exercise of any such warrants or
rights or any such right of conversion or exchange, as having been
issued on the date or dates of any such exercise and for the
consideration actually received and receivable therefor, and
(d) treating any such warrants or rights or any such other
Convertible Securities which then remain outstanding as having been
granted or issued immediately after the time of such increase or
decrease, as the case may be, of the consideration per share for
which shares of Common Stock or other property are issuable under
such warrants or rights or
<PAGE>
13
other Convertible Securities; whereupon a new adjustment of the
Current Warrant Price and the number of shares of Common Stock for
which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made pursuant to Section
4.4 or Section 4.5, as appropriate, which new adjustment shall
supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and annulled;
provided, that no rescission or recomputation adjustment shall be made under
this Section 4.6 in respect of any portion of this Warrant which has been
exercised prior to the occurrence of any action otherwise requiring such
rescission or recomputation adjustment.
4.7 OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENTS UNDER THIS SECTION.
The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the
Current Warrant Price and the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable provided for in this Section 4:
(a) Computation of Consideration. To the extent that any
Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities or
any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any
Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities shall
be issued for cash consideration, the consideration received by the
Company therefor shall be the amount of the cash received by the
Company therefor, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or
Convertible Securities are offered by the Company for subscription,
the subscription price, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock
or Convertible Securities are sold to underwriters or dealers for
public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public
offering price (in any such case subtracting (x) any amounts paid or
receivable for accrued interest or accrued dividends and (y) any
compensation, discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Company
for and in the underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the
issuance thereof). To the extent that such issuance shall be for a
consideration other than cash, then, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, the amount of such consideration shall be deemed
to be the fair value of such consideration at the time of such
issuance as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Company. In case any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any
Convertible Securities or any warrants or other rights to subscribe
for or purchase such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible
Securities shall be issued in connection with any merger in which the
Company issues any securities, the amount of consideration therefor
shall be deemed to be the fair value, as determined in good faith by
the Board of Directors of the Company, of such portion of the assets
and business of the nonsurviving corporation as such Board in good
faith shall determine to be attributable to such Additional Shares of
Common Stock, Convertible Securities, warrants or other rights, as
the case may be. The consideration for any Additional Shares of
Common Stock issuable pursuant to any warrants or other rights to
subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the consideration
received by the Company for issuing such warrants or other rights
plus the lowest amount of additional consideration payable to the
Company upon exercise of such warrants or other rights. The
consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable
pursuant to the terms of any Convertible
<PAGE>
14
Securities shall be the consideration received by the Company for
issuing warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase such
Convertible Securities, plus the consideration paid or payable to the
Company in respect of the subscription for or purchase of such
Convertible Securities, plus the lowest amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of
the right of conversion or exchange in such Convertible Securities.
In case of the issuance at any time of any Additional Shares of
Common Stock or Convertible Securities in payment or satisfaction of
any dividends upon any class of stock other than Common Stock, the
Company shall be deemed to have issued such Additional Shares of
Common Stock or Convertible Securities for no consideration. Whenever
the Board of Directors of the Company shall be required to make a
determination in good faith of the fair value of any consideration,
such determination shall, if requested by the Majority Holders, be
supported by an opinion of an investment banking firm of recognized
national standing selected by the Company and acceptable to such
Holders, with all costs thereof borne by the Company.
(b) When Adjustments to Be Made. The adjustments required
by this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any
specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any
adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable that would otherwise be required may be
postponed (except in the case of a subdivision or combination of
shares of the Common Stock, as provided for in Section 4.1) up to,
but not beyond the date of exercise if such adjustment either by
itself or with other adjustments not previously made adds or
subtracts less than 0.1% of the shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the making of such
adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such
minimum amount (except as aforesaid) which is postponed shall be
carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with
other adjustments required by this Section 4 and not previously made,
would result in a minimum adjustment or on the date of exercise. For
the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to
have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.
(c) Fractional Interests. In computing adjustments under
this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken
into account to the nearest 1/10th of a share.
(d) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take
a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription
or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution
to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver
such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then
thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of
such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect
thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.
<PAGE>
15
(e) Escrow of Warrant Stock. If after any property becomes
distributable pursuant to this Section 4 by reason of the taking of
any record of the holders of Common Stock, but prior to the
occurrence of the event for which such record is taken, Holder
exercises this Warrant, then any additional shares of Common Stock
and other property issuable upon exercise solely by reason of such
adjustment shall be held in escrow for Holder by the Company to be
issued to Holder upon and to the extent that the event actually takes
place. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein, if
the event for which such record was taken fails to occur or is
rescinded, then such escrowed shares shall be cancelled by the
Company and escrowed property returned.
(f) Challenge to Good Faith Determination. Whenever the
Board of Directors of the Company shall be required to make a
determination in good faith of the fair value of any item under this
Section 4, such determination may be challenged in good faith by
Holder, and any dispute shall be resolved by an investment banking
firm of recognized national standing selected by the Company and
acceptable to such Holder, with all costs thereof borne by the
Company.
(g) Current Warrant Price Not Less than $.0025. If,
following any reduction of the Current Warrant Price and increase in
the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is
exercisable made pursuant to this Section 4, except any reduction
made pursuant to subsections 4.1(a) or 4.1(b), the Current Warrant
Price is reduced to an amount less than $.0025, the Current Warrant
Price shall be increased (without any further change in the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable) to
equal the lesser of (x) the Current Warrant Price immediately prior
to such adjustment and (y) $.01. However, for purposes of calculating
any subsequent adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 (except this
Section 4.7(g)) any increase in the Current Warrant Price pursuant to
this Section 4.7(g) shall be disregarded.
4.8 REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR
DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another
corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there
is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company),
or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property,
assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any
cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or
in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other
Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock
of the Company, then each Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive,
upon exercise of such Warrant, the number of shares of common stock of the
successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving
corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets
by a holder of the
<PAGE>
16
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor
or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the
due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and
condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all
the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may
be deemed appropriate (as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of
the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of shares of the Common Stock
for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. For purposes of
this Section 4.8 "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall
include (i) stock of such corporation of any class which does not provide for
(A) dividends at a fixed rate which does not vary based on the net income or
operating results of the Company and/or its subsidiaries, (B) a preference as to
liquidation which is limited to the consideration received by the Company for
such stock and (C) a right of redemption and (ii) any evidences of indebtedness,
shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable
for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date
or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to
subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this
Section 4.8 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassification, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
4.9 OTHER ACTION AFFECTING COMMON STOCK. If at any time or from time
to time the Company shall take any action in respect of its Common Stock, other
than the payment of dividends described in Section 4.2(a) or any other action
described in this Section 4, then, unless such action will not have a materially
adverse effect upon the rights of the Holders, the number of shares of Common
Stock or other stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and/or the purchase
price thereof shall be adjusted in such manner as may be equitable in the
circumstances.
4.10 CERTAIN LIMITATIONS. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Company agrees not to enter into any transaction which, by reason
of any adjustment hereunder, would cause the Current Warrant Price to be less
than the par value per share of Common Stock.
4.11 ADJUSTMENT TO NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK PURCHASABLE
HEREUNDER. In the event and on each occasion that, pursuant to the terms of the
Loan and Security Agreement, the Company reduces the amount of principal
outstanding in excess of the Basic Borrowing Amount (as defined in the Loan and
Security Agreement) by at least $300,000 (the amount of any such reduction, the
"Reduction Amount"), the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant
is exercisable shall be adjusted to a number of shares as follows. In the event
that the Current Market Price of one share of Common Stock on the date of such
event is equal to or less than such Current Market Price onApril 1, 1998, then
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall
be adjusted to a number of shares equal in value to the value of this Warrant on
April 1, 1998 minus the Reduction Amount. In the event that the Current Market
Price of one share of Common Stock on the date of such event is greater than
such Current Market Price on April 1, 1998, then the number of shares of
<PAGE>
17
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be decreased by a
number of shares equal in value to the Reduction Amount valued at the Current
Market Price of one share of Common Stock on the date of such event.
5. NOTICES TO WARRANT HOLDERS
5.1 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the Current Warrant Price or the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be
adjusted pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall forthwith prepare a
certificate to be executed by the chief financial officer of the Company setting
forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method
by which such adjustment was calculated (including a description of the basis on
which the Board of Directors of the Company determined the fair value of any
evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or
warrants or other subscription or purchase rights referred to in Section 4.2 or
4.7(a)), specifying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant
is exercisable and (if such adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.8 or 4.9)
describing the number and kind of any other shares of stock or Other Property
for which this Warrant is exercisable, and any change in the purchase price or
prices thereof, after giving effect to such adjustment or change. The Company
shall promptly cause an executed copy of such certificate to be delivered to
each Holder in accordance with Section 15.2. The Company shall keep at its
office or agency designated pursuant to Section 12 copies of all such
certificates and cause the same to be available for inspection at said office
during normal business hours by any Holder or any prospective purchaser of a
Warrant designated by a Holder thereof.
5.2 NOTICE OF CERTAIN CORPORATE ACTION. The Holder shall be entitled
to the same rights to receive notice of corporate action as any holder of Common
Stock.
6. NO IMPAIRMENT
The Company shall not by any action including, without limitation,
amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of
securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Company will (a) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor
upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all
such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use its best efforts to obtain all
such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body
having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform
its obligations under this Warrant.
<PAGE>

Upon the request of Holder, the Company will at any time during the
period this Warrant is outstanding acknowledge in writing, in form satisfactory
to Holder, the continuing validity of this Warrant and the obligations of the
Company hereunder.
7. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK;
REGISTRATION WITH OR APPROVAL OF ANY GOVERNMENTAL
AUTHORITY
From and after the date hereof, the Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available for issue upon the exercise of Warrants such number
of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be sufficient to
permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. All shares of Common
Stock which shall be so issuable, when issued upon exercise of any Warrant and
payment therefor in accordance with the terms of such Warrant, shall be duly and
validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive
rights.
Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the
Current Warrant Price below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall take any
corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of such Common Stock at
such adjusted Current Warrant Price.
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Current Warrant Price, the Company shall take all actions required, including,
without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation, to ensure that it
has a sufficient number of shares of authorized and unissued shares of Common
Stock in order to permit the exercise of the Warrants following such adjustment
and obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto,
as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having
jurisdiction thereof.
If any shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for issuance
upon exercise of Warrants require registration or qualification with any
governmental authority under any federal or state law (otherwise than as
provided in Section 9) before such shares may be so issued, the Company will in
good faith and as expeditiously as possible and at its expense endeavor to cause
such shares to be duly registered.
8. TAKING OF RECORD; STOCK AND WARRANT TRANSFER BOOKS
In the case of all dividends or other distributions by the Company to
the holders of its Common Stock with respect to which any provision of Section 4
refers to the taking of a record of such holders, the Company will in each such
case take such a record and will take such record as of the close of business on
a Business Day. The Company will not at any time, except upon dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company, close its stock transfer books or
Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or delaying the exercise or
transfer of any Warrant.

9. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY
The Warrants and the Warrant Stock shall not be transferred,
hypothecated or assigned before satisfaction of the conditions specified in this
Section 9, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Transfer of any Warrant or
any Warrant Stock. Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by
the provisions of this Section 9.
9.1 RESTRICTIVE LEGEND. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 9, each certificate for Warrant Stock initially issued upon the exercise
of this Warrant, and each certificate for Warrant Stock issued to any subsequent
transferee of any such certificate, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with
a legend in substantially the following form:
"The shares represented by this certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and are
subject to the conditions specified in a certain Warrant dated April
14,1997, originally issued by Community Care of America, Inc. No
transfer of the shares represented by this certificate shall be valid
or effective until such conditions have been fulfilled. A copy of the
form of said Warrant is on file with the Secretary of Community Care
of America, Inc. The holder of this certificate, by acceptance of
this certificate, agrees to be bound by the provisions of such
Warrant."
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, each
Warrant shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in
substantially the following form:
"This Warrant and the securities represented hereby have
not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
may not be transferred in violation of such Act, the rules and
regulations thereunder or the provisions of this Warrant."
9.2 NOTICE OF PROPOSED TRANSFERS; REQUEST FOR REGISTRATION. Prior to
any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Warrants or any shares of Restricted
Common Stock, the holder of such Warrants or Restricted Common Stock shall give
ten days' prior written notice (a "Transfer Notice") to the Company of such
holder's intention to effect such Transfer, describing the manner and
circumstances of the proposed Transfer, and obtain from counsel to such holder
who shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, an opinion that the
proposed Transfer of such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock may be
effected without registration under the Securities Act. After receipt of the
Transfer Notice and opinion, the Company shall, within five days thereof, so
notify the holder of such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock and such
holder shall thereupon be entitled to Transfer such Warrants or such Restricted
Common Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Transfer Notice. Each
certificate, if any, evidencing such shares of Restricted Common Stock issued
upon such Transfer shall bear the restrictive legend set forth in Section
9.1(a), and each Warrant issued upon such Transfer shall bear the restrictive
legend set forth in Section 9.1(b), unless in the opinion of such counsel such
legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act.
The holder of the Warrants or the
<PAGE>
20
Restricted Common Stock, as the case may be, giving the Transfer Notice shall
not be entitled to transfer such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock until
receipt of notice from the Company under this Section 9.2(a).
The holder of Warrants and Warrant Stock shall have the right to
request registration of such Warrant Stock pursuant to Sections 9.3 and 9.4.
9.3 REQUIRED REGISTRATION. After receipt of a written request from
the holders of Warrants and/or Warrant Stock representing at least an aggregate
of 30% of the total of (i) all shares of Warrant Stock then subject to purchase
upon exercise of all Warrants and (ii) all shares of Warrant Stock then
outstanding, requesting that the Company effect the registration of Warrant
Stock issuable upon the exercise of such holder's Warrants or of any of such
holder's Warrant Stock under the Securities Act and specifying the intended
method or methods of disposition thereof, the Company shall promptly notify all
holders of Warrants and Warrant Stock in writing of the receipt of such request
and each such holder, in lieu of exercising its rights under Section 9.4, may
elect (by written notice sent to the Company within ten Business Days from the
date of such holder's receipt of the aforementioned Company's notice) to have
its shares of Warrant Stock included in such registration thereof pursuant to
this Section 9.3. Thereupon the Company shall, as expeditiously as is possible,
use its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all
shares of Warrant Stock which the Company has been so requested to register by
such holders for sale, all to the extent required to permit the disposition (in
accordance with the intended method or methods thereof, as aforesaid) of the
Warrant Stock so registered; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to effect more than two registrations of any Warrant Stock pursuant to
this Section 9.3, unless the Company shall be eligible to file a registration
statement on Form S-3 (or other comparable short form) under the Securities Act,
in which event there shall be no limit on the number of such registrations
pursuant to this Section 9.3.
9.4 INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION. If the Company at any time proposes to
file on its behalf and/or on behalf of any of its security holders ("the
demanding security holders") a registration statement under the Securities Act
on any form (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any
successor form for securities to be offered in a transaction of the type
referred to in Rule 145 under the Securities Act or to employees of the Company
pursuant to any employee benefit plan, respectively) for the general
registration of securities to be sold for cash with respect to its Common Stock
or any other class of equity security (as defined in Section 3(a)(11) of the
Exchange Act) of the Company (a "Registration Statement"), it will give written
notice to all holders of Warrants or Warrant Stock at least 60 days before the
initial filing with the Commission of such Registration Statement, which notice
shall set forth the intended method of disposition of the securities proposed to
be registered by the Company. The notice shall offer to include in such filing
the aggregate number of shares of Warrant Stock, and the number of shares of
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, as such holders may request.
<PAGE>
21
Each holder of any such Warrants or any such Warrant Stock desiring
to have Warrant Stock registered under this Section 9.4 shall advise the Company
in writing within 30 days after the date of receipt of such offer from the
Company, setting forth the amount of such Warrant Stock for which registration
is requested. The Company shall thereupon include in such filing the number of
shares of Warrant Stock for which registration is so requested, subject to the
next sentence, and shall use its best efforts to effect registration under the
Securities Act of such shares. If the managing underwriter of a proposed public
offering shall advise the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the
distribution of the Warrant Stock requested to be included in the registration
concurrently with the securities being registered by the Company or such
demanding security holder would materially and adversely affect the distribution
of such securities by the Company or such demanding security holder, then all
selling security holders (other than any demanding security holder who initially
requested such registration) shall reduce the amount of securities each intended
to distribute through such offering on a pro rata basis. Except as otherwise
provided in Section 9.6, all expenses of such registration shall be borne by the
Company.
9.5 REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. If the Company is required by the
provisions of this Section 9 to use its best efforts to effect the registration
of any of its securities under the Securities Act, the Company will, as
expeditiously as possible:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a Registration
Statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to
cause such Registration Statement to become and remain effective for
a period of time required for the disposition of such securities by
the holders thereof;
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments
and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus
used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such
Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of
the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of
all securities covered by such Registration Statement until the
earlier of such time as all of such securities have been disposed of
in a public offering or the expiration of 180 days;
(c) furnish to such selling security holders such number of
copies of a summary prospectus or other prospectus, including a
preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents, as such selling security
holders may reasonably request;
(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the
securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other
securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United
States and Puerto Rico as each holder of such securities shall
request (provided, however, the Company shall not be obligated to
qualify as a foreign corporation to do business under the laws of any
jurisdiction in which it is not then qualified or to file any general
consent to service or process), and do such other reasonable acts and
things
<PAGE>
22
as may be required of it to enable such holder to consummate the
disposition in such jurisdiction of the securities covered by such
Registration Statement;
(e) furnish, at the request of any holder requesting
registration of Warrant Stock pursuant to Section 9.3, on the date
that such shares of Warrant Stock are delivered to the underwriters
for sale pursuant to such registration or, if such Warrant Stock is
not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the
Registration Statement with respect to such shares or Warrant Stock
becomes effective, (1) an opinion, dated such date, of the
independent counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such
registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if such
Warrant Stock is not being sold through underwriters, then to the
holders making such request, stating that such Registration Statement
has become effective under the Securities Act and that (i) to the
best knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the
effectiveness thereof has been issued and no proceedings for that
purpose have been instituted or are pending or contemplated under the
Securities Act, (ii) the Registration Statement, the related
prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto, comply as to
form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities
Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder (except that such counsel need express no opinion as to
financial statements contained therein), (iii) the descriptions in
the Registration Statement or the prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, of all legal matters and contracts and other
legal documents or instruments are accurate and fairly present the
information required to be shown, and (iv) such counsel does not know
of any legal or governmental proceedings, pending or contemplated,
required to be described in the Registration Statement or prospectus,
or any amendment or supplement thereto, which are not described as
required, nor of any contracts or documents or instruments of a
character required to be described in the Registration Statement or
prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or to be filed as
exhibits to the Registration Statement which are not described and
filed or incorporated by reference as required; such counsel shall
also confirm that he has no reason to believe that either the
Registration Statement or the prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto (other than financial material as to which such
counsel need make no statement) contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances in which made, not misleading; and (2) a letter dated
such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the
Company, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if such Warrant
Stock is not being sold through underwriters, then to the holder
making such request and, if such accountants refuse to deliver such
letter to such holder, then to the Company stating that they are
independent certified public accountants within the meaning of the
Securities Act and that, in the opinion of such accountants, the
financial statements and other financial data of the Company included
in the Registration Statement or the prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, comply as to form in all material respects with
the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act. Such
opinion of counsel shall additionally cover such other legal matters
with respect to the registration in respect of which such
<PAGE>
23
opinion is being given as such holders of Warrant Stock may
reasonably request. Such letter from the independent certified public
accountants shall additionally cover such other financial matters
(including information as to the period ending not more than 5
Business Days prior to the date of such letter) with respect to the
registration in respect of which such letter is being given as the
holders holding a majority of the Warrant Stock being so registered
may reasonably request;
(f) entered into customary agreements (including an
underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions
as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the
disposition of such Warrant Stock; and
(g) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make
available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable,
but not later than 18 months after the effective date of the
Registration Statement, an earnings statement covering the period of
at least 12 months beginning with the first full month after the
effective date of such Registration Statement, which earnings
statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
Securities Act.
It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Company to
take any action pursuant to this Section 9 in respect of the securities which
are to be registered at the request of any holder of Warrants or Warrant Stock
that such holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding the
securities held by such holder and the intended method of disposition thereof as
the Company shall reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with
the action taken by the Company.
9.6 EXPENSES. All expenses incurred in complying with Section 9,
including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees (including all
expenses incident to filing with the NASD), printing expenses, fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company, the reasonable fees and expenses of
one counsel for the selling security holders (selected by those holding a
majority of the shares being registered), expenses of any special audits
incident to or required by any such registration and expenses of complying with
the securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdictions pursuant to Section 9.5(d),
shall be paid by the Company, except that
(a) all such expenses in connection with any amendment or
supplement to the Registration Statement or prospectus filed more
than 12 months after the effective date of such Registration
Statement because any holder of Warrant Stock has not effected the
disposition of the securities requested to be registered shall be
paid by such holder; and
(b) the Company shall not be liable for any fees, discounts
or commissions to any underwriter or any fees or disbursements of
counsel for any underwriter in respect of the securities sold by such
holder of Warrant Stock.
<PAGE>
24
9.7 INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION. (a) In the event of any
registration of any of the Warrant Stock under the Securities Act pursuant to
this Section 9, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the holder of such
Warrant Stock, such holder's directors and officers, and each other Person
(including each underwriter) who participated in the offering of such Warrant
Stock and each other Person, if any, who controls such holder or such
participating Person within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such holder
or any such director or officer or participating Person or controlling Person
may become subject under the Securities Act or any other statute or at common
law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any alleged unsure statement
of any material fact contained, on the effective date thereof, in any
Registration Statement under which such securities were registered under the
Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) any alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse such holder or such
director, officer or participating Person or controlling Person for any legal or
any other expenses reasonably incurred by such holder or such director, officer
or participating Person or controlling Person in connection with investigating
or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon
any alleged untrue statement or alleged omission made in such Registration
Statement, preliminary prospectus, prospectus or amendment or supplement in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by such holder specifically for use therein or (in the case of any
registration pursuant to Section 9.3) so furnished for such purposes by any
underwriter. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of
any investigation made by or on behalf of such holder or such director, officer
or participating Person or controlling Person, and shall survive the transfer of
such securities by such holder.
(b) Each holder of any Warrant Stock, by acceptance thereof, agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each
other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Securities Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which the Company or any such director or officer or any such Person
may become subject under the Securities Act or any other statute or at common
law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon information in writing provided
to the Company by such holder of such Warrant Stock contained, on the effective
date thereof, in any Registration Statement under which securities were
registered under the Securities Act at the request of such holder, any
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment
or supplement thereto.
(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 from the
indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect
of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein,
then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such
proportion as is
<PAGE>
25
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and
indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and
indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has
been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or
indemnified parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid
or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other
fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any
investigation or proceeding.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 9(c) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
9.8 TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of Section 9, the restrictions imposed by this Section upon the
transferability of the Warrants, the Warrant Stock and the Restricted Common
Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) and the
legend requirements of Section 9.1 shall terminate as to any particular Warrant
or share of Warrant Stock or Restricted Common Stock (or Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of the Warrants) (i) when and so long as such security shall
have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of
pursuant thereto or (ii) when the Company shall have received an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to it that such legend is not required in order
to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. Whenever the restrictions imposed
by Section 9 shall terminate as to this Warrant, as hereinabove provided, the
Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, at the expense of
the Company, a new Warrant bearing the following legend in place of the
restrictive legend set forth hereon:
"THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF THE WITHIN WARRANT
CONTAINED IN SECTION 9 HEREOF TERMINATED ON ________________, 19__,
AND ARE OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT."
All Warrants issued upon registration of transfer, division or combination of,
or in substitution for, any Warrant or Warrants entitled to bear such legend
shall have a similar legend endorsed thereon. Wherever the restrictions imposed
by this Section shall terminate as to any share of Restricted Common Stock, as
hereinabove provided, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the
Company, at the Company's expense, a new certificate representing such Common
Stock not bearing the restrictive legend set forth in Section 9.1(a).
<PAGE>
26
9.9 LISTING ON SECURITIES EXCHANGE. If the Company shall list any
shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange, it will, at its expense, list
thereon, maintain and, when necessary, increase such listing of, all shares of
Common Stock issued or, to the extent permissible under the applicable
securities exchange rules, issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant so long as
any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed during any such Exercise Period.
9.10 CERTAIN LIMITATIONS ON REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Notwithstanding the
other provisions of Section 9:
(i) the Company shall not be obligated to register the Warrant
Stock of any holder if, in the opinion of counsel to the
Company reasonably satisfactory to the holder and its
counsel (or, if the holder has engaged an investment
banking firm, to such investment banking firm and its
counsel), the sale or other disposition of such holder's
Warrant Stock, in the manner proposed by such holder (or by
such investment banking firm), may be effected without
registering such Warrant Stock under the Securities Act;
and
(ii) the Company shall not be obligated to register the Warrant
Stock of any holder pursuant to Section 9.3, if the
Company has had a registration statement, under which such
holder had a right to have its Warrant Stock included
pursuant to Section 9.3 or 9.4, declared effective within
one year prior to the date of the request pursuant to
Section 9.3; provided, however, that if any holder elected
to have shares of its Warrant Stock included under such
registration statement but some or all of such shares were
excluded pursuant to the last sentence of Section 9.3 or
9.4, then such one-year period shall be reduced to six
months.
9.11 SELECTION OF MANAGING UNDERWRITERS. The managing underwriter or
underwriters for any offering of Warrant Stock to be registered pursuant to
Section 9.3 shall be selected by the holders of a majority of the shares being
so registered (other than any shares being registered pursuant to Section 9.4)
and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company.
10. SUPPLYING INFORMATION
The Company shall cooperate with each Holder of a Warrant and each
holder of Restricted Common Stock in supplying such information as may be
reasonably necessary for such holder to complete and file any information
reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the Commission as a condition
to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act for the sale of any
Warrant or Restricted Common Stock.
<PAGE>
27
11. LOSS OR MUTILATION
Upon receipt by the Company from any Holder of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and in
case of mutilation upon surrender and cancellation hereof, the Company will
execute and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor to such Holder;
provided, however, that in the case of mutilation, no indemnity shall be
required if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for
cancellation.
12. OFFICE OF THE COMPANY
As long as any of the Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall
maintain an office or agency (which may be the principal executive offices of
the Company) where the Warrants may be presented for exercise, registration of
transfer, division or combination as provided in this Warrant.
13. FINANCIAL AND BUSINESS INFORMATION
13.1 QUARTERLY INFORMATION. The Company will deliver to each Holder,
as soon as practicable after the end of each of the first three quarters of the
Company, and in any event within 45 days thereafter, one copy of an unaudited
consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its subsidiaries as at the close
of such quarter, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and
changes in financial position of the Company for such quarter and, in the case
of the second and third quarters, for the portion of the fiscal year ending with
such quarter, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the
corresponding periods in the previous fiscal year. Such financial statements
shall be prepared by the Company in accordance with GAAP and accompanied by the
certification of the Company's chief executive officer or chief financial
officer that such financial statements are complete and correct and present
fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and changes in
financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as at the end of such
quarter and for such year-to-date period, as the case may be.
13.2 ANNUAL INFORMATION. The Company will deliver to each Holder as

event within 90 days thereafter, one copy of:
(i) an audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company
and its subsidiaries as at the end of such year, and
(ii) audited consolidated statements of income, retained
earnings and changes in financial position of the Company and its
subsidiaries for such year;
<PAGE>

setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the corresponding

which audited financial statements shall be accompanied by (i) an opinion
thereon of the independent certified public accountants regularly retained by
the Company, or any other firm of independent certified public accountants of
recognized national standing selected by the Company and (ii) a report of such
independent certified public accountants confirming any adjustment made pursuant
to Section 4 during such year.
13.3 FILINGS. The Company will file on or before the required date
all regular or periodic reports (pursuant to the Exchange Act) with the
Commission and will deliver to Holder promptly upon their becoming available one
copy of each report, notice or proxy statement sent by the Company to its
stockholders generally, and of each regular or periodic report (pursuant to the
Exchange Act) and any Registration Statement, prospectus or written
communication (other than transmittal letters) (pursuant to the Securities Act),
filed by the Company with (i) the Commission or (ii) any securities exchange on
which shares of Common Stock are listed.
14. APPRAISAL
The determination of the Appraised Value per share of Common Stock
shall be made by an investment banking firm of nationally recognized standing
selected by the Company and acceptable to the Majority Holders. If the
investment banking firm selected by the Company is not acceptable to the
Majority Holders and the Company and the Majority Holders cannot agree on a
mutually acceptable investment banking firm, then the Majority Holders and the
Company shall each choose one such investment banking firm and the respective
chosen firms shall agree on another investment banking firm which shall make the
determination. The Company shall retain, at its sole cost, such investment
banking firm as may be necessary for the determination of Appraised Value
required by the terms of this Warrant.
15. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by Holder
to purchase shares of Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or
privileges of Holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of such Holder for
the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company,
whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
16. REPURCHASE BY THE COMPANY OF WARRANT
16.1 OBLIGATION TO REPURCHASE WARRANT.

Days' written notice prior to the consummation of an Event (the "Event Notice").
(c) The Company hereby agrees that the repurchase obligation
set forth in paragraph (a) hereof shall be a condition precedent to the
consummation of any Event.
16.2 DETERMINATION AND PAYMENT OF REPURCHASE PRICE.
(a) The purchase price for any repurchase pursuant to this
Section 16 (the "Repurchase Price") shall be determined as of 5 days prior to
the applicable Repurchase Date. On the Repurchase Date, each Holder shall assign
to the Company such Holder's Warrant or portion thereof being repurchased, as
the case may be, without any representation or warranty, by the surrender of
such Holder's Warrant at the principal office of the Company referred to in
Section 2.1 against payment therefor of the Repurchase Price by, at the option
of such Holder, (i) wire transfer to an account in a bank located in the United
States designated by such Holder for such purpose or (ii) a certified or
official bank check drawn on a member of the New York Clearing House payable to
the order of such Holder.
(b) Each Holder shall have the right at any time to object
to the determination of
Book Value, if relevant to the determination of the Repurchase Price by
specifying in writing to the Company the nature of its objection and, unless
such objection is resolved by agreement of the Company and such Holder, the
Company and such Holder shall each have the right to subject the disputed
determination to separate firms of independent accountants of recognized
national standing for a joint resolution of the objection of such Holder (which
firms of independent accountants may, in either case, be the firms of
accountants regularly retained by the Company or such Holder). If such firms
cannot jointly resolve the objection of such Holder, then, unless otherwise
directed by agreement of the Company and such Holder, such firms shall in their
sole discretion choose another firm of independent certified public accountants
of recognized national standing, which is not the regular auditor of such Holder
or the Company, which firm shall resolve such objection. In either case, for
purposes hereof the determination so made shall be conclusive and binding on the
Company, such Holder and all Persons claiming under or through any of them, and
any adjustment in the determination of Book Value and the Repurchase Price per
share of Common Stock resulting from such determination shall be made. The cost
of any
<PAGE>
30
such determination shall be borne by the Company if it results in an increase of
the aggregate Repurchase Price for all shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise hereof and by such Holder if it results in no adjustment or a decrease
of the aggregate Repurchase Price for all shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise hereof.
(c) In the event that the determination of the Repurchase
Price requires an opinion from an investment banking firm or accounting firm,
all costs and fees associated therewith shall be paid by the Company.
17. MISCELLANEOUS
17.1 NONWAIVER AND EXPENSES. No course of dealing or any delay or
failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a
waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder's rights, powers or remedies.
If the Company fails to make, when due, any payments provided for hereunder, or
fails to comply with any other provision of this Warrant, the Company shall pay
to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses
including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, including those of
appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant
hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies
hereunder.
17.2 NOTICE GENERALLY. Any notice, demand, request, consent,
approval, declaration, delivery or other communication hereunder to be made
pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant shall be sufficiently given or made
if in writing and either delivered in person with receipt acknowledged or sent

17.3 INDEMNIFICATION. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless Holder from and against any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, attorneys' fees, expenses
and disbursements of any kind which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted
against Holder in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) Holder's exercise
of this Warrant and/or ownership of any shares of Warrant Stock issued in
consequence thereof, or (ii) any litigation to which Holder is made a party in
its capacity as a stockholder of the Company; provided, however, that the
Company will not be liable hereunder to the extent that any liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims,
costs, attorneys' fees, expenses or disbursements are found in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court to have resulted from Holder's gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in its capacity as a stockholder or
warrantholder of the Company.

to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of
damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under Section 9
of this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate
compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions
of Section 9 of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any
action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
17.5 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to the provisions of Sections
3.1 and 9, this Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors
and assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the
benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant, and shall be
enforceable by any such Holder.
17.6 AMENDMENT. This Warrant and all other Warrants may be modified
or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the
Company and the Majority Holders, provided that no such Warrant may be modified
or amended to reduce the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant
is exercisable or to increase the price at which such shares may be purchased
upon exercise of such Warrant (before giving effect to any adjustment as
provided therein) without the prior written consent of the Holder thereof.

of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
17.8 HEADINGS. The headings used in this Warrant are for the
convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part
of this Warrant.

full amount thereof has been paid, notwithstanding the death or disability of
the Employee after the termination of this employment.

confidentiality agreement with or other contractual, legal or fiduciary
obligation of confidentiality to the Company or any of its affiliates with
respect to such material, (iii) becomes available to Employee on a
non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or its agents,

employee, client, or customer of the Company who was an employee of
the Company during the Employment Period, to alter, modify or
terminate their relationship with the Company as an employee as the
case may be.
4.4 Non-Competition. In consideration of the Employee's employment
hereunder, and as an inducement to the execution and performance of the
Employment Agreement by the Company, the Employee hereby agrees that, for a
period of three (3) years following the natural expiration or any termination of
this Agreement, the Employee will not, without the express written consent of
the Company, directly or indirectly, for the Employee or on behalf of any other
person, firm, entity or other enterprise, be employed by, be a director or
manager of, act as a consultant for, be a partner in, have a proprietary
interest in, give advice to, loan money to or otherwise associate with, any

day care, primary care clinic services or medical transportation services of any
type within a twenty-five (25) mile radius of any nursing home or other health

this Agreement shall have expired or terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event the Company terminates this Agreement other than pursuant to

- 10 -
<PAGE>
4.5 Necessary Restrictions. The Employee acknowledges that the
restrictions contained in Paragraphs 4.3 and 4.4 are reasonable and necessary to
protect the legitimate business interests of the Company and that any violation
thereof by him would result in irreparable harm to the Company. Accordingly, the
Employee agrees that upon the violation by his of any of the restrictions
contained in Paragraphs 4.3 or 4.4, the Company shall be entitled to obtain from
any court of competent jurisdiction a preliminary and permanent injunction as
well as any other relief provided at law, equity, under this Agreement or
otherwise. In the event any of the foregoing restrictions are adjudged

or the scope of such restrictions (or both) shall be adjusted to such a manner
or for such a time (or both) as is adjudged to be reasonable.

Company that (i) he is not bound by any agreement with any prior employer or
other party to refrain from using or disclosing any confidential information or
from competing with the business of such employer or other party, (ii) his
performance under this Agreement will not breach any other agreement by which he

days of the receipt of written notice of said condition from the Employee) shall
not be a defense to enforcement of the covenants contained in Article
- 11 -
<PAGE>
IV, including but not limited to a temporary or permanent injunction. The
Employee acknowledges that damages in the event of Employee's breach of this
Article IV will be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain and it is
therefore agreed that the Company, in addition to, and without limiting any
other remedy or right it may have, shall have the right to an injunction
enjoining the said breach. Employee agrees to reimburse Company for all costs
and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by Company because
of any breach of this Article.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE
COMMUNITY CARE OF AMERICA, INC.
SUPPLEMENTAL DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
---------------------------------------
WHEREAS, Community Care of America, Inc. (the "Corporation") maintains the
Community Care of America, Inc. Supplemental Deferred Compensation Plan (the
"Plan"); and
WHEREAS, the Corporation has the power to amend the Plan in a way which
reduces participants' accrued benefits under the Plan, provided the Corporation
obtains the affected participants' respective consents to any such amendment;
and
WHEREAS, the Corporation desires to amend the Plan and the affected
participants desire to consent to such amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan hereby is amended as follows, effective as of
August 1, 1996:
1. The second paragraph of Section 3.1 of the Plan hereby is amended in its
entirety to read as follows:
"No Employer Contribution Credits shall be allocated to
Participants' Employer Contribution Credit Accounts for the
Plan's first Plan Year (i.e., beginning January 1, 1995).
The aggregate Employer Contribution Credits credited to
Participants' Employer Contribution Credit Accounts for the
Plan's second Plan Year (i.e., beginning January 1, 1996)
shall be five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000). The
aggregate Employer Contribution Credits credited to
Participants' Employer Contribution Credit Accounts for
each Plan Year commencing on or after the first day of the
third Plan Year (i.e., January 1, 1997) shall be an amount,
if any, determined by the Employer, in its discretion. The
amount allocated to each Participant's Employer
Contribution Credit Account for each Plan Year for which
the Employer makes Employer Contribution Credits shall
equal the aggregate Employer Contribution Credits to the
Plan for the Plan Year multiplied by a fraction, the
numerator of which is one (1) and the denominator of which
is the total number of Participants as of the last day of
the Plan Year as of which the Employer Contribution Credit
is credited. Notwithstanding the preceding, in any Plan
Year in which a Change of Control occurs, the Employer
Contribution Credits credited to each Participant's
Employer Contribution Credit Account shall be an amount
that is not less than three (3) times the amount of the
Employer Contribution Credit credited to the Participant's
Employer Contribution Credit Account in the Plan Year among
the five (5) Plan Years ending with the Plan Year of the
<PAGE>
Change of Control in which the highest amount of Employer
Contribution Credits was credited to the Participant's
Employer Contribution Credit Account (without regard to
this sentence); provided, however, that, if the Plan Year
of the Change of Control is the Plan Year in which the
highest amount of Employer Contribution Credits is credited
to the Participant's Employer Contribution Credit Account
(without regard to this sentence), the amount credited to
the Participant's Employer Contribution Credit Account for
the Plan Year of the Change of Control shall be the amount
previously credited to the Participant's Employer
Contribution Credit Account during the Plan Year (without
regard to this sentence) plus two (2) times the amount
previously credited during the Plan Year. Employer
Contribution Credits for a Plan Year shall be credited to
each Participant who is actively employed (i) on the last
day of the Plan Year with respect to which the Employer
Contribution Credit is credited if no Change of Control
occurs during the Plan Year or (ii) the day before a Change
of Control occurs during the Plan Year if a Change of
Control occurs during the Plan Year."
2. Section 6.2(b) hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
"(b) Timing and Manner of Payment. An aggregate amount
equal to the Participant's vested Account will be paid by
the Trust or the Employer upon the Participant's
termination of employment with the Employer, as provided by
Section 6.1, in a lump sum."
3. The names "Kenneth Creasman" and "James K. Burkhart" hereby are removed
from Schedule I of the Plan and the name "Gary W. Singleton" hereby is added to
Schedule I of the Plan.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation hereby evidences its adoption of the
above Amendment and the Plan participants affected by the above Amendment hereby
consent to the above Amendment by setting forth their signatures below.

Individuals, for themselves and their successors and assigns, hereby forever
waive and relinquish all claims against CCA and CCA Maine asserted in the

obligations of CCA and CCA Maine undertaken, continued or modified pursuant to
this Agreement, CCA and CCA Maine, for themselves and their successors and

collateral for the same.

Individuals and Minority Holders.

<PAGE>
(a) With respect to the rights granted by CCA and CCA Maine to the
Individuals to acquire shares of common stock of CCA (the "Stock Options") in
and pursuant to those certain Stock Option Agreements between each of the
Individuals and CCA dated July 11, 1995, (collectively the "Stock Option
Agreements"), and notwithstanding any provisions in the Stock Option Agreements
to the contrary dealing with the vesting of the Stock Options, CCA and CCA Maine
agree that all of the shares of the common stock of CCA subject to the Stock
Options, for a total of twenty thousand (20,000) shares, are as of the date of
this Agreement fully vested with respect to the Stock Options, and, as to such
twenty thousand (20,000) shares, the Stock Options shall be nonforfeitable and
immediately exercisable, and, upon exercise thereof, all stock so acquired shall
be freely tradeable.
(b) With respect to the rights granted by CCA and CCA Maine under
Section 9(j) of the Option Agreement to require the purchase of common stock of
CCA previously issued to each of the Individuals and the Minority Holders in
connection with the payment of the deposit under Section 8(a) of the Option
Agreement (the "Put Option") covering the shares of CCA common stock held by the
Individuals, such Put Option shall continue in full force and effect, as
modified by this Section, and CCA hereby agrees that it is liable with respect
to the Put Option. Without regard to any limitations as to percentages of such
stock to be put or as to dates for such puts, all shares of stock under the Put
Option are hereby exercised and CCA acknowledges and agrees to such exercise.
The Individuals agree they shall not demand payment for the stock hereby put to
CCA until the earlier to occur of (i) February 28, 1997 or (ii) the sale of all
or substantially all of the assets of CCA or the sale of a majority of the
issued and outstanding shares of stock of CCA to a third party, or the merger of
CCA with or into another entity, or any similar type of transaction (each, a
"Sale Transaction"). If the sale of CCA is structured as a stock-for-stock
transaction, the Individuals and Minority Holders hereby agree to accept, in
lieu of cash, shares of stock in the acquiring entity in an amount that results
in the Individuals and Minority Holders receiving stock in the acquiring entity
of a market value on the date of closing equal to the value of the shares in CCA
held by the Individuals and Minority Holders at the price under the Put Option,
and provided that the stock of the acquiring entity is fully registered and
freely tradeable upon issuance to the Individuals and Minority Holders.
6. Continuation and Extension of Put Rights with Respect to Maine
Head Trauma Center. The put options granted to the Individuals in the Stock
Purchase Agreement (the "MHTC Agreement") among CCA, CCA Maine, Maine Head
Trauma Center, Inc. and the Individuals and others dated as of November 1, 1995
(the "MHTC Put Options") shall continue in full force and effect, and the dates
contained in Section 2.1(j) of the MHTC Agreement governing the period during
which the MHTC Put Options may be exercised are hereby changed as follows: The
shares subject to the First Put Period (as defined in the MHTC Agreement) and
the Second Put Period (as defined in the MHTC Agreement) are hereby exercised
and shall be paid at the same time as those Put Option rights set forth in
Section 5(b) above and the MHTC Agreement shall be deemed to be amended
accordingly. The Put Option price shall be as provided in the MHTC Agreement.
4
<PAGE>
7. Appointment of Agent with Respect to Put Option. The holders of
the rights described in Sections 5 and 6 above hereby irrevocably appoint James
N. Broder, Esquire, Curtis Thaxter Stevens Broder & Micoleau, One Canal Plaza,
Portland, Maine 04412 as agent to hold the shares of stock to be tendered under
Sections 5 and 6 and to deliver the certificates evidencing said shares upon
tender of payment as required hereunder. In the event CCA fails to make payment
of or to otherwise perform under this Agreement, CCA agrees that such holders
shall be entitled to recover from CCA their reasonable legal fees and expenses
in addition to any other damages incurred by reason of CCA's said failure. CCA
waives any conflict of interest arising from Mr. Broder's serving as escrow
agent under this Section and releases Mr. Broder from all liability except for
that arising from his intentional tortious acts.
8. Additional Consideration for Settlement. The consideration for the
Settlement described herein shall be the mutual offset described in Section 4
above. In addition, CCA and CCA Maine agree jointly and severally to pay to
SRHS, as agent for the SRG Entities and the Individuals, including, without
limitation, David L. Friedman, without offset or deduction, $50,000 in
immediately available funds, as follows: $25,000 on or before November 15, 1996,
and $25,000 on the earlier to occur of (i) February 28, 1997, or (ii) the
closing of a Sale Transaction, in payment of legal fees and expenses paid or
accrued by the SRG Entities and the Individuals, including David L. Friedman,
between September 15, 1996 and the closing of this Agreement.

and the Individuals that One Hundred Twenty Thousand Dollars ($120,000.00)
previously paid to CCA in July or August 1996 was applied on that date to the
account of Rehab Ambassadors, an affiliate of CCA. Provided the $120,000 payment
was made to Rehab Ambassadors, the SRG Entities agree that they shall continue
to use the services of Rehab Ambassadors, except that the SRG Entities shall
have the right to terminate Rehab Ambassadors severally on thirty (30) days
notice. In addition, Rehab Ambassadors will be treated the same as other trade
payables, i.e., shall be paid no sooner or later than any other accounts payable
of the SRG Entities. The amounts owing to Rehab Ambassadors as of August 31,
1996 are as shown on Exhibit D hereto and are hereby confirmed by CCA and Rehab
Ambassadors.

(a) an Election to Purchase in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A,
properly completed and executed by the Person (the "Purchaser")
exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this

(b) this Warrant;

case the Registered Holder shall have complied with the provisions
set forth in Section 7.1 hereof; and

by authorizing the Company to withhold from issuance a number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant
which when multiplied by the Market Price of Common Stock is equal to
the Aggregate Exercise Price (and such withheld shares of Common
Stock shall no longer be issuable under this Warrant), or (3) if the
Holder holds the Note, a written notice to the Company that the
Holder is exercising the Warrant (or a portion thereof) by
authorizing the Company to withhold and apply such amount of

(ii) Certificates for shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of

fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip representing fractional
shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon an exercise of this
Warrant. Unless this Warrant has expired or all of the purchase

day period deliver such new Warrant to the Purchaser.
(iii) The shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant

become the record holder of such Common Stock at such time.
(iv) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of this
Warrant or of any share of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the

exercised shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set
forth:
-4-
<PAGE>
4.1 EFFECT ON PURCHASE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES OF CERTAIN EVENTS.
If and whenever on or after the Commencement Date, the Company issues or sells,
or in accordance with this Section 4.1 is deemed to have issued or sold, any
share of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the Purchase Price
in effect immediately prior to such time, then immediately upon such issuance or
sale the Purchase Price shall be reduced pursuant to this Section 4.1 to a new
Purchase Price determined by dividing (A) the sum of (x) the product derived by
multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale
times the number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately prior
to such issue or sale, plus (y) the consideration, if any, received by the
Company upon such issue or sale, by (13) the number of shares of Common Stock
Deemed Outstanding immediately after such issue or sale. Upon each such
adjustment of the Purchase Price, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of this Warrant (to the extent not theretofore exercised)
shall be increased to a number determined by multiplying the number of such
shares so purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to
such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Purchase Price in
effect immediately after such adjustment. For purposes of determining the
Purchase Price as adjusted under this Section 4.1, the following shall be
applicable:
(i) ISSUANCE OF RIGHTS OR OPTIONS. If on or after the Commencement Date
the Company in any manner issues, grants or sells any Options and the
price per share for which a share of Common Stock is issuable upon
the exercise of any such Option, or upon conversion or exchange of
any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option, is
less than the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the time
of the granting or sale of such Option, then the total maximum number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options,
or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amounts of such
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options,
shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of determining the
Common Stock Deemed Outstanding and to have been issued and sold by
the Company at such time for such price per share. For purposes of
this Section 4. l(i), the "price per share for which a share of
Common Stock is issuable" shall be equal to the sum of the amount of
consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with
respect to the issuance, grant, or sale of the Option, plus the
amount of consideration (if any) that would be received by the
Company with respect to exercise of the Option in full plus the
amount of consideration (if any) that would be received by the
Company with respect to conversion or exchange in full of any
Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option, all
divided by the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Option and conversion or exchange of the Convertible
Security. No further adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made
upon the actual issue of such Common Stock or of such Convertible
Security upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issue
of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Security.
(ii) ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If on or after the Commencement
Date the Company in any manner issues, grants, or sells any
Convertible Security and the price per share for which a share of
Common Stock is issuable upon conversion or exchange thereof is less
than the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the time of
such issue or sale, then the maximum number
-5-
<PAGE>
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of
such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be outstanding for
purposes of determining the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding and to
have been issued and sold by the Company at such time for such price
per share. For the purposes of this Section 4. l(ii), the "price per
share for which a share of Common Stock is issuable" shall be equal
to the sum of the amount of consideration (if any) received or
receivable by the Company with respect to the issuance, grant or sale
of the Convertible Security plus the amount of consideration (if any)
that would be received by the Company with respect to the conversion
or exchange of such Convertible Security in full, all divided by the
total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or
exchange of the Convertible Security. No further adjustment of the
Purchase Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common
Stock upon conversion or exchange of any Convertible Security, and if
any such issue or sale of such Convertible Security is made upon
exercise of any Options for which adjustments of the Purchase Price
has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this
Section 4, no further adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made
under this Section 4. l(ii) by reason of such issue or sale.
(iii) CHANGE IN OPTION PRICE OR CONVERSION RATE. If the amount to be
received by the Company upon the exercise of any Options outstanding
as of the Commencement Date, the additional consideration, if any,
payable upon the issuance, conversion, or exchange of any Convertible
Securities outstanding as of the Commencement Date, or the rate at
which any Convertible Securities outstanding as of the Commencement
Date are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock changes at
any time after the Commencement Date, then such Option or Convertible
Security and the Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise,
conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed for purposes of this
Section 4.1 to have been issued, granted or sold as of the date of
such changes and the Purchase Price shall be adjusted as provided
herein; provided that no such change shall at any time cause the
Purchase Price hereunder to be increased.
(iv) TREATMENT OF EXPIRED OPTIONS AND UNEXERCISED CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES.
Upon the expiration of any Option described in Section 4. l(i) or the
termination of any right to convert or exchange any Convertible
Securities described in Section 4.1(ii) without the exercise or
conversion in whole or in part of such Option or Convertible
Security, the Purchase Price then in effect and the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable hereunder shall be adjusted immediately to
the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock which
would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or
termination had such Option or Convertible Securities, never been
issued, granted or sold; provided that if such expiration or
termination would result in an increase in the Purchase Price then in
effect, such increase shall not be effective until thirty (30) days
after written notice thereof has been given to the Registered Holder.
For purposes of this Section 4.1, the expiration or termination of
any Option or Convertible Security which was outstanding as of the
Commencement Date shall not cause the Purchase Price hereunder to be
adjusted unless, and only to the extent that, a change in the term of
such Option or Convertible Security caused it to be deemed to have
been issued after the Commencement Date pursuant to Section 4.1(iii).
(v) CALCULATION OF CONSIDERATION RECEIVED. If any Common Stock, Options
or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been
issued or sold for cash, the
-6-
<PAGE>
consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the net amount
received by the Company therefor. In case any Common Stock, Options
or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration
other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash
received by the Company shall be the fair value of such
consideration, except where such consideration consists of
securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the
Company shall be the Market Price thereof as of the date of receipt.
In case any Common Stock Options or Convertible Securities are issued
to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any
merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount
of consideration therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value of
such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving
entity as is attributable to such Common Stock Options or Convertible
Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration
other than cash or securities shall be determined jointly by the
Company and the Registered Holder. If such parties are unable to
reach agreement, such fair value shall be determined by appraisal
pursuant to Section 12.
(vi) INTEGRATED TRANSACTIONS. In case any Option is issued in connection
with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together
comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific
consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto,
the Options shall be deemed to have been issued without
consideration.
(vii) EACH SERIES A SEPARATE SECURITY. In case an agreement relating to
Options or Convertible Securities provides that more than one
Purchase Price, conversion or exchange provisions are applicable to
the securities issuable thereunder, then the securities subject to
each different exercise price, conversion or exchange provisions
shall be deemed to be subject to separate Options or Convertible
Securities for purposes of applying this Section 4.1.
(viii) TREASURY SHARES. The Common Stock outstanding at any given time does
not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company
or any Subsidiary, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held
shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.
(ix) RECORD DATE. If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common
Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or
other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or in Convertible
Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options
or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to
be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed
to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or
the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of
such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
4.2 SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF COMMON STOCK. If the Company at any
time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such
subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Common
Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant (to the extent not theretofore
exercised) shall be proportionally increased. If the Company at any time
combines (by reverse stock split or
-7-
<PAGE>
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, the Purchase Price shall be proportionately increased
and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
(to the extent not theretofore exercised) shall be proportionally decreased.
4.3 REORGANIZATION RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, OR SALE.
Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, spin-off, consolidation,
merger, sale, or distribution of the Company's assets or other transaction, in
each case which is effected in such a way that the holders of Common Stock are
entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock
securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred
to herein as "Organic Change." Prior to the consummation of any Organic Change,
the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance satisfactory
to the Registered Holders) to insure that each of the Registered Holders shall
thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or in addition to
(as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore
acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of such Warrant, such shares of
stock securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in
exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore
issuable upon exercise of the Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place.
In any such case, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Registered Holders) with respect to such Holders'
rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section 4, Section 5,
and Section 6 hereof shall thereafter be applicable to the Warrant (including,
in the case of any such consolidation, merger or sale in which the successor
entity or purchasing entity is other than the Company, an immediate reduction in
the Purchase Price to the value of the Common Stock reflected by the terms of
such consolidation, merger or sale, and a corresponding immediate adjustment in
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (to
the extent not theretofore exercised), if the value so reflected is less than
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or
sale). The Company shall not effect any such spin-off, consolidation, merger or
sale, unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if other
than the Company) resulting from spin-off, consolidation, or merger or the
entity purchasing such assets assumes by written instrument (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Registered Holders), the obligation to deliver to
each such holder such shares of stock securities or assets as, in accordance
with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to acquire.
4.4 CERTAIN EVENTS. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by
the provisions of this Section 4 but not expressly provided for by such
provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation
rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features or
equity-based valuation or any dividend or distribution of the capital stock
issued by any Person other than the Company), then the Company's Board of
Directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Purchase Price and the
number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (to the extent not
theretofore exercised) so as to protect the rights of the Registered Holders;
provided that no such adjustment shall increase the Purchase Price as otherwise
determined Pursuant to this Section 4.
-8-
<PAGE>
4.5 CALCULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE: NOTICES.
(i) All calculations of the Purchase Price under this Section 4 shall be
computed to the nearest One-Thousandth (1/l000th) of a cent.
(ii) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Purchase Price, the Company
shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holder, setting
forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such
adjustment, provided however, that such notice shall not be deemed to
be conclusive as to the Purchase Price calculation. At the request of
the Registered Holder, the Company shall certify the Purchase Price
of and the number of shares for which a Warrant at the time may be
exercised.
(iii) The Company shall give written notice to the Registered Holder at
least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the Company closes
its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any subdivision or
combination of the Common Stock that is subject to Section 4.2, or
any other dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with
respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock
or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic
Change, dissolution or liquidation.
(iv) The Company shall also give written notice to the Registered Holder
at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which any Organic
Change, dissolution or liquidation shall take place.
4.6 EXCLUDED TRANSACTIONS. The provisions of this Section 4 shall not
apply to the exercise of the IHS Warrants.
4.7 EXPRESSION OF PURCHASE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES. Irrespective
of any adjustments or change in the Purchase Price or the number of securities
actually purchasable under the Warrant, the Warrants theretofore and thereafter
issued may continue to express the purchase price and the number of securities
purchasable thereunder as the Purchase Price and the number of securities
purchasable were expressed in the Warrant when initially issued.
5. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES AS STOCKHOLDERS AND NOTICE TO REGISTERED
HOLDER.
Nothing contained herein shall be construed as conferring upon the
Registered Holder the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a
stockholder in respect of the meetings of stockholders for the election of
directors of the Company or any other matter, or any other rights whatsoever as
a stockholder of the Company; provided, however, that in the event that:
-9-
<PAGE>
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock or
other stock or securities for the purpose of entitling them to
receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe
for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other
securities or to receive any other right;
(b) the Company shall take action to accomplish any capital
reorganization, or reclassification of the capital stock of the
Company, or a consolidation or merger of the Company into, or a sale
of all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation;
(c) the Company shall take action to redeem or convert any or all of
outstanding Common Stock or other stock or securities of the Company;
or
(d) the Company shall take action looking to a voluntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company;
then, and in each such case, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed to the
Registered Holder of this Warrant a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i)
the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, or (ii) the date on which such reorganization,
reclassification, spin-off, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution,
liquidation, winding-up, redemption or conversion is to take place, and the
time, if any, is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock
or such other stock or securities shall be entitled to exchange their shares of
Common Stock or such other stock or securities for securities or other property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
conveyance, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, conversion or redemption. Such
notice shall be delivered at least thirty (30) days prior to the date therein
specified.
6. DUTY TO REGISTER COMMON STOCK.
The shares of Common Stock issuable under this Warrant shall be
subject to all of the terms and conditions of that certain Registration Rights

to in the legend endorsed hereon, this Warrant and all rights hereunder

-10-
<PAGE>
7.2 WARRANT EXCHANGEABLE FOR DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONS. This Warrant is
exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Registered Holder at the
principal office of the Company, for new Warrants of like teens representing in
the aggregate the purchase rights hereunder, and each of such new Warrants shall
represent such portion of such rights as is designated by the Registered Holder
at the time of such surrender. The date the Company initially issues this
Warrant shall be deemed to be the "Date of Issuance" hereof regardless of the
number of times new certificates representing the unexpired and unexercised
rights formerly represented by this Warrant shall be issued. All Warrants
representing portions of the rights hereunder are referred to herein as the
"Warrants."
8. VALID ISSUANCE AND PAYMENT OF TAXES.
All shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant
shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and the Company shall
pay all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of
the issue or delivery thereof. The Company shall not be required to pay any tax
or other charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issuance
of any certificate for shares of Common Stock in any name other than that of the
Registered Holder of this Warrant, and in such case the Company shall not be
required to issue or deliver any stock certificate or security until such tax or
other charge has been paid, or it has been established that no tax or other
charge is due.
9. MUTILATED OR MISSING WARRANTS.
In case any of the Warrants shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or
destroyed, the Company shall issue and deliver in exchange and substitution for,
and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of, and in
substitution for, the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like
tenor and representing an equivalent right or interest, but only upon receipt of
reasonable evidence of such loss, theft, or destruction of such Warrant.
10. RESERVE.
The Company hereby represents and covenants that it has reserved and
at all times there shall be reserved for issuance such number and type of
securities as the Registered Holders are entitled to receive upon exercise of
the IHS Warrants. Prior to the issuance of any equity securities (or any
instrument exercisable for or convertible into equity securities) and whenever
otherwise required to satisfy this Section 10, the Company will amend its
Certificate of Incorporation to the extent necessary to ensure that there is
reserved for issuance a sufficient number and type of securities as the
Registered Holders of the IHS Warrants are entitled to receive upon exercise
thereof.
11. NO IMPAIRMENT.
The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of
Incorporation or bylaws, or through reorganization, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities, sale of assets or any other voluntary
action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms
of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out
of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Registered Holders against
impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a)
shall not increase the par value of any shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant above the Purchase Price and (b) will take all such action as may be
necessary or appropriate in order that the
-11-
<PAGE>
Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant.
12. APPRAISAL.
In case of any dispute as to valuation of a security under this
Agreement, the fair value of such security shall be determined by an appraiser
without any discount for liquidity or restrictions under the Securities Act.
This appraisal process shall be instituted within fourteen (14) days after a
party to this Agreement notifies the other party of its desire to submit the
issue to an appraiser. In the event that, within seven (7) days after a party to
this Agreement notifies the other party of its desire to submit the issue to an
appraiser, the parties do not agree on a single appraiser to determine the fair
value of such security, the fair value of such security shall be determined,
without any discount for liquidity or restrictions under the Securities Act, by
the majority determination of a panel of three (3) appraisers who shall be
selected in the following manner: the Company shall select one (1) appraiser and
the Registered Holder entitled to exercise this Warrant for the greatest number
of shares of Common Stock (in the event there shall be more than one Registered
Holder), on behalf of all of the Registered Holders, shall select one (1)
appraiser and the two (2) appraisers selected by the Company and the Registered
Holder shall jointly select a third appraiser. The appraiser selected jointly by
the parties and, if applicable, each member of the appraisal panel shall be an
individual who personally and whose Affiliates shall not have a previous
business relationship with either party. The appraiser and, if applicable, the
appraisal panel shall endeavor to complete the appraisal as soon as practicable.
The determination of such appraiser and, if applicable, the appraisal panel
shall be final and binding on the Company and the Registered Holders, and the
fees and expenses of such appraisal shall be borne equally by the Company, on
the one hand, and the Registered Holders on the other.
13. NOTICES.

REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), dated as of April 14,
1997, by and between INTEGRATED HEALTH SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation
having an address at 10065 Red Run Boulevard, Owings Mills, Maryland 21117
("IHS"), and COMMUNITY CARE OF AMERICA, INC., a Delaware corporation having an
address at 3050 N. Horseshoe Drive, Naples, Florida 33942 ("CCA").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, CCA has entered into that certain Loan and Security
Agreement with Daiwa Healthco-2 LLC ("Daiwa") dated as of December 23, 1996 (the
"Loan Agreement");
WHEREAS, as a condition to extending to CCA certain accommodations
under the Loan Agreement, Daiwa has required that IHS provide a guaranty (the
"Daiwa Guaranty") securing the repayment of all amounts owing from CCA to Daiwa
under the Loan Agreement in excess of the Basic Borrowing Amount, as well as the
payment of any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees and expenses) paid or incurred by Daiwa in enforcing its rights
under the Daiwa Guaranty;
WHEREAS, CCA has entered into a letter agreement with Health and
Retirement Properties Trust ("HRPT") dated as of April 14, 1997 (the "Letter
Agreement");
WHEREAS, in accordance with the Letter Agreement, HRPT has required
that IHS provide a guaranty (the "HRPT Guaranty") securing certain obligations
owed by CCA to HRPT;
WHEREAS, as a condition to providing the Daiwa Guaranty and the HRPT
Guaranty, IHS requires that CCA agree to reimburse IHS for any amounts that
become payable by IHS in respect of the Daiwa Guaranty and the HRPT Guaranty.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises hereinafter
set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby
agree as follows:
1. Subject to any waiver by IHS of the right to subrogation or
reimbursement contained in the Daiwa Guaranty and/or the HRPT Guaranty, CCA
shall, on demand, reimburse IHS for any amounts paid by IHS on behalf of CCA in
accordance with the terms of the Daiwa Guaranty and/or the HRPT Guarantee,
including any costs, fees, charges and expenses (including reasonable legal fees
and expenses of counsel) arising out of the negotiation, preparation or issuance
of, or performance under, the Daiwa Guaranty and/or the HRPT Guarantee
(collectively, the "Reimbursement Obligations").
<PAGE>
2. Any and all amounts which become owing to IHS by CCA in respect of
the Reimbursement Obligations shall bear interest, from the date such amounts
are advanced by IHS under the applicable guaranty until paid in full, at the
rate of fifteen (15%) percent per annum.
3. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until all of
the Reimbursement Obligations shall have been fully, finally and irrevocably
satisfied and IHS has been fully, finally and irrevocably released from all
obligations with respect to the Daiwa Guaranty and the HRPT Guaranty.
4. All agreements between CCA and IHS herein are hereby expressly
limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, shall the amount paid or
agreed to be paid to IHS for the use, forbearance or detention of money
hereunder exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law. If, from any
circumstance whatsoever, the fulfillment of any provision hereof, at the time
performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit
of validity prescribed by law, then, IPSO FACTO, the obligation to be fulfilled
shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any circumstance IHS
should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful
rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the
reduction of the principal of the Reimbursement Obligations and not to the
payment of interest.
5. Any notice or other communication by either party to the other
shall be in writing and shall be given and be deemed to have been duly given,
upon the date delivered if delivered personally or upon the date received if
mailed postage pre-paid, registered, or certified mail, addressed as follows:

validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement and all
other documents and instruments referred to herein, unless otherwise specified
therein. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,

signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge
or termination is sought. This Agreement shall be binding upon CCA and its
successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
