          (a) AmSouth Accounts. Except as provided in Section 2.2(b) below, AmSouth and Lender agree that at all times, whether before, during or after the pendency of any bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding, and notwithstanding the priorities that ordinarily would result under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in each and every applicable jurisdiction, and as amended from time to time, and other applicable law for the order of granting or perfecting of any security interests referred to herein, AmSouth shall have a first and prior security interest in, upon and to the AmSouth Accounts, and if AmSouth has advanced funds pursuant to the terms of the AmSouth Note within ninety (90) days immediately preceding the Possession Date (collectively, the “Prepossession Advance”), AmSouth shall have a first and prior security interest in, upon and to any Accounts which accrue or arise after the Possession Date but only up the total amount of the Prepossession Advance, and Lender shall have a second priority security interest in such AmSouth Accounts or Accounts. AmSouth shall have no interest in any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan Documents or any tangible or intangible property of Borrower or Corporate Guarantor other than the Accounts and Common Collateral to the extent described herein, and the Stock.

Subject to Section 2.3(a), on and after the Possession Date, AmSouth shall have a second priority security interest in such Lender Accounts until such time as the AmSouth Obligations are paid in full or AmSouth’s rights are terminated in accordance with Section 2.3(c) herein. AmSouth and Borrower covenant and agree that, for so long as the AmSouth Obligations remain outstanding, the Availability shall not be increased and the Maturity Date of the AmSouth Note, which date is January 29, 2008, shall not be extended, without Lender’s prior written consent.
          (c) General Intangibles, Contract Rights and Agreements. Until such time as Lender has received payment in full of all Lender Obligations, Lender shall hold a first priority security interest in and to all of the General Intangibles and Contract Rights of the Borrower, including, but not limited to, all Patient Agreements, Permits and Provider Agreements, and the Proceeds and products thereof; provided; however, that to the extent any such Proceeds or products, or any other payments derived from such General Intangibles or Contract Rights are inextricably related to the collection of AmSouth Accounts, then the same shall be deemed to be AmSouth Accounts, and the relative interest of Lender and AmSouth shall be determined in accordance with Sections 2.2(a) and 2.2(b) hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, AmSouth Accounts shall not include any Permits related to the operation of the Facilities, and AmSouth shall have no right to transfer, sell, convey or otherwise affect the Permits related to the operation of the Facilities.
     Section 2.3. Release of Security Interest.
          (a) Upon receipt by AmSouth of payment in full of all AmSouth Obligations and termination of the AmSouth Loan Documents, AmSouth will notify Lender of such event in accordance with Section 3.1 below, and AmSouth, at Borrower’s expense, will execute any and all termination statements, UCC-3 amendments or releases (as applicable) to fully effectuate AmSouth’s release and extinguishment of its security interest in the AmSouth Accounts, Accounts, Lender Accounts, Common Collateral and the Stock.
          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any AmSouth Accounts are sold, transferred or conveyed or otherwise disposed of: (i) as permitted under the AmSouth Loan Documents, or (ii) as otherwise consented to by AmSouth and Borrower, or (iii) in conjunction with the exercise of AmSouth’s rights and remedies under the AmSouth Loan Documents, then, subject to the terms of this Agreement, Lender shall and hereby agrees to release any and all rights to and interests in such AmSouth Accounts (but not to the Proceeds thereof to the extent set forth in the last sentence of this Section 2.3(b)), and such AmSouth Accounts shall be transferred free and clear of all liens and security interests (including the lien of Lender). Lender shall execute such release documents as AmSouth may request, from time to time, to effectuate the terms hereof. To the extent that the Proceeds of any such sale of AmSouth Accounts exceed the AmSouth Obligations, then any such excess shall be delivered to Lender (to the extent that Lender is

 


 

otherwise entitled thereto in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Documents and/or applicable law).
     Section 2.4. Collection of Accounts.
          (a) Until such time as the AmSouth Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the AmSouth Loan Documents have been terminated, Lender shall immediately deliver to AmSouth any payment it receives with respect to the AmSouth Accounts in precisely the same form received (but with the endorsement of Lender receiving the same where necessary) for application in reduction of the AmSouth Obligations, and agrees that until so delivered, the payment shall be held in trust for AmSouth as the property of AmSouth. Until the AmSouth Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full, Lender agrees that it will not institute any legal proceeding against Borrower with respect to any AmSouth Accounts or otherwise enforcing or exercising rights in the AmSouth Accounts for all or part of any amount due under the Mortgage Loan Documents. Any Proceeds received by Lender in excess of an amount necessary to satisfy in full the Lender Obligations shall otherwise be held by Lender in trust for AmSouth and remitted to AmSouth (to the extent that AmSouth is otherwise entitled thereto in accordance with the AmSouth Loan Documents and applicable law). Until all of the Lender Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full, AmSouth agrees that it will not institute any legal proceeding against Borrower with respect to any Lender Accounts or otherwise enforcing or exercising rights in the Lender Accounts for all or part of any amount due under the AmSouth Loan Documents.
          (b) At Lender’s option, at any time subsequent to the Possession Date, Lender may pay or cause to be paid the AmSouth Obligations to AmSouth. If Lender pays the AmSouth Obligations, Lender shall have a first priority security interest in and lien on all of the AmSouth Accounts and the Common Collateral, and AmSouth will execute and deliver to Lender releases and satisfactions of its security interests in all Accounts, Common Collateral and the Stock. In the event AmSouth fails to file such release and satisfaction within thirty (30) days after Lender’s written demand therefor, Lender is hereby authorized to file in AmSouth’s name, any releases and satisfactions necessary to effectuate the release contemplated hereby, and Lender will provide to AmSouth a copy of such release. AmSouth hereby constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution in the premises, to exercise such rights. This power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Lender Obligations are outstanding. If Lender pays the AmSouth Obligations, Borrower agrees such payment, together with interest thereon at the interest rate set forth in the Mortgage Loan Documents, from the date paid, shall be a debt owing, jointly and severally, by Borrower to Lender and shall, together with all costs of collection, be secured by all of the Accounts and other Lender Collateral, and all such indebtedness, interest thereon and costs of collection, if any, shall be due and payable promptly on demand by Lender.
          (c) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, Lender agrees that it will not make any assertion or claim in any action, suit or proceeding of any nature whatsoever in any way challenging the priority, validity or effectiveness of the liens and security interests granted to AmSouth with respect to the AmSouth Accounts, the Accounts that accrue subsequent to the Possession Date up to the total amount of any Preposession Advance made by AmSouth,

 


 

and the Stock, or the validity or effectiveness of the subordinate liens and security interests of AmSouth with respect to the Lender Accounts, under and in connection with the AmSouth Loan Documents or related agreement between AmSouth and Borrower. Lender further agrees that AmSouth’s lien and security interest in the AmSouth Accounts, and the Accounts that accrue subsequent to the Possession Date up to the total amount of any Preposession Advance made by AmSouth, and the Stock, at all times while any AmSouth Obligations or the AmSouth Priority Amount are owing from Borrower to AmSouth shall be superior and prior to the liens and security interests granted to Lender pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents (which liens and security interests of Lender shall be subject and inferior to those of AmSouth) in such AmSouth Accounts, Accounts or Stock, irrespective of the time, order or method of attachment or perfection of AmSouth’s and Lender’s liens and security interests, or the filing of financing statements or the taking of possession of the AmSouth Accounts, or any portion thereof.
          (d) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, AmSouth agrees that it will not make any assertion or claim in any action, suit or proceeding of any nature whatsoever in any way challenging the priority, validity or effectiveness of the liens and security interests granted to Lender with respect to the Lender Accounts that accrue or arise from and after the Possession Date, or the validity or effectiveness of the subordinate liens and security interests granted to Lender with respect to the AmSouth Accounts that accrued before the Possession Date, under and in connection with the Mortgage Loan Documents, or any amendment, extension or replacement thereof or related agreements in favor of Lender. Borrower further agrees that Lender’s lien and security interest in the Lender Accounts which accrue or arise from and after the Possession Date, at all times while any indebtedness or other obligations are owing to Lender that are secured by such Lender Accounts, shall be superior and prior to the liens and security interests granted to AmSouth pursuant to the AmSouth Loan Documents (which liens and security interests of AmSouth shall be subject and inferior to those of Lender), in such Lender Accounts, irrespective of the time, order or method of attachment or perfection of AmSouth’s and Lender’s liens and security interests, or the filing of financing statements or the taking of possession of the AmSouth Accounts, or any portion thereof.
          (e) No sale or other disposition of AmSouth Accounts by or at the direction of AmSouth in an aggregate amount in excess of the AmSouth Priority Amount may be made at a discounted price (i.e., for less than the present value of the AmSouth Accounts using a discount rate of 10%) without first providing written notice to Lender accompanied by a term sheet or summary of written terms from a prospective third party purchaser of such AmSouth Accounts, and offering Lender a period of ten (10) business days within which to purchase such AmSouth Accounts on the same terms. In the event Lender purchases such AmSouth Accounts (which it shall have no obligation to purchase), AmSouth agrees that upon receipt of the purchase price (x) all such AmSouth Accounts, all liens or security interests therein, and all Proceeds thereof, shall be assigned by AmSouth to Lender.
     Section 2.5. Rights in the Collateral. AmSouth and Lender acknowledge that the books and records of Borrower relating to the Accounts (including but not limited to electronic records and related software and related computer equipment) may be included among the collateral for both the AmSouth Loan and the Mortgage Loan (the “Common Collateral”). As to the Common Collateral, Lender agrees that AmSouth’s security interest shall be prior to that of Lender prior to the Possession Date, but AmSouth agrees, in the exercise of Lender’s security

 


 

interest, to allow Lender to have reasonable access to the Common Collateral in AmSouth’s possession and will, upon Lender’s request and upon payment of AmSouth’s actual out-of-pocket costs, provide copies of all Common Collateral to Lender. Within five (5) Business Days after the Possession Date, AmSouth shall turn over to Lender all Common Collateral in AmSouth’s possession. After the Possession Date, Lender shall have a first priority security in and to the Common Collateral pursuant to the terms of Section 2.4 (b).
     Section 2.6. Access to the Facilities. AmSouth acknowledges that among other Security, Lender holds a first lien mortgage on the Facilities, including the premises upon which the Accounts and Common Collateral may be located. Lender agrees that if it or its nominee should acquire possession of the Facilities, it will allow AmSouth reasonable access to the Facilities, Accounts and Common Collateral, at AmSouth’s cost and expense, after Lender or its nominee attains possession thereof for the purpose of examining and copying the records relating to the Accounts and pursuing collection thereof, and no such possession of the Facilities shall affect the relative priorities of Secured Lenders as set forth herein with respect to Accounts and Common Collateral.
     Section 2.7. Agreement to Give Notice of Default.
          (a) AmSouth agrees to send Lender a copy of any notice of default given to Borrower under the AmSouth Loan Documents simultaneously with AmSouth giving of such notice to Borrower (provided that failure of AmSouth to provide such notice of default shall not create or result in any liability of AmSouth to Lender), and Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure such default within any grace or cure period provided to Borrower under the AmSouth Loan Documents. The giving of such notice of default shall not affect the relative rights of the parties under this Agreement.
          (b) Lender agrees to send AmSouth a copy of any Default Notice given to Borrower under the Mortgage Loan Documents simultaneously with Lender’s giving of such notice to Borrower (provided that failure of Lender to provide such notice of default shall not create or result in any liability of Lender to AmSouth), and AmSouth shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure such default within any grace or cure period provided to Borrower under the Mortgage Loan Documents. The giving of the Default Notice shall not affect the relative rights of the parties under this Agreement except as otherwise set forth herein.
