For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, CMFG and TMP (each of which may be individually referred to herein as a “Party” or, collectively, as “the Parties” and/or “Parties”), hereby agree as follows:

 

         1.         Amendments to Agreement. The Parties hereby agree that the Agreement shall be amended as follows:          

 

         (a)         Section 1.1 of the Agreement (Definitions) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“1.1         “Funded Receivables” means those accounts, accounts receivable and/or claims now existing or hereafter arising with dates of service between the year 2007 and December 31, 2012, which have already been generated by TMP through treatment to WC patients in accordance with California law, and are listed on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. TMP has represented that the underlying claim(s) that relate to these accounts receivable have not been previously paid by any insurance carrier or The State Fund and that the available claims benefits under any relevant policy have not been exhausted, and/or have not been closed. An associated assignment of benefits has been provided to TMP for each such receivable.”

 

         (b)         Section 1 of the Agreement (Definitions) is hereby amended by adding the following as new sections:

 

“1.6         “Non-Workers’ Compensation Receivable(s)” means any and all accounts and accounts receivable of, or generated or created by, TMP, whether now existing or hereafter created or arising, which are not Funded Receivables.”

 

“1.7         “TMP Obligations” means any and all obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising, of TMP under this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) TMP’s obligation to remit the proceeds of Funded Receivables to CMFG pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) TMP’s Obligation to make all Monthly Shortfall Payments to CMFG as and when the same shall be due.”

 

 
 

 

         (c)         Section 2.1 of the Agreement (Funding Amount) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“2.1         Funding Amount. In consideration for assignment of TMP’s rights in such Funded Receivables and the proceeds thereof now existing or hereafter arising to CMFG as provided in this Agreement, CMFG shall fund to TMP a sum of $3,280,000 (the “Funding Amount”). CMFG shall provide TMP with funding of $750,000 on or prior to June 30, 2013 with the balance of $2,530,000 to follow thereafter to TMP by September 30, 2013. A Closing Fee equal to 3% of the Funding Amount shall be deducted from the proceeds of the Funding Amount and retained by CMFG.”

 

         (d)         Section 2.2 of the Agreement (Escrow) and all references to the Escrow Amount or any escrow in the Agreement are hereby deleted in its entirety. The following shall be inserted in lieu of Section 2.2: “RESERVED.”

 

         (e)         Section 2.5 of the Agreement (Transfer of Rights in Funded Receivables) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“2.5         Transfer of Rights in Funded Receivables. Other than the payments set forth in Section 2.6 of this Agreement, TMP acknowledges and agrees that, any and all legal and equitable right, title and interest TMP may have had, has or will at any time have in the Funded Receivables are hereby forever transferred and assigned to CMFG (to the extent permitted by applicable law). TMP will not retain any right whatsoever to recover any payments from insurers, or from the proceeds of any settlement or judgment recovered by, or behalf of WC patients by their attorneys or otherwise arising out of, in connection with, or related to Funded Receivables, other than as set forth herein. TMP agrees to immediately remit any such payment it may receive relating to the Funded Receivables and proceeds thereof to CMFG and to provide unlimited access to accounting, reporting and database systems related to the Funded Receivables and proceeds thereof. CMFG’s interest in the Funded Receivables (and the proceeds thereof) and all TMP Obligations shall be secured by a first priority lien on and perfected security interest in all Funded Receivables, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and the proceeds of all Funded Receivables (which the parties herein agree that their estimated face value is forty-two million dollars ($42,000,000)), and by a first priority lien on and perfected security interest in all Non-Workers’ Compensation Receivables, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and the proceeds thereof, as more specifically set forth hereinafter. The lien on the Non-Workers’ Compensation Receivables shall be released upon CMFG’s receipt of $3,761,000.00 from collections of Funded Receivables. At all times up until CMFG has received $3,761,000.00 from collections of Funded Receivables, TMP represents, warrants and agrees that it shall maintain a reserve of Non-Workers’ Compensation Receivables with a face value of not less than twenty million dollar ($20,000,000.00) to secure the TMP Obligations. Upon the request from time to time of CMFG, TMP will deliver evidence to CMFG that it has so maintained such reserves of Non-Workers Compensation Receivables.

CMFG’s lien on and security interest in the Non-Workers’ Compensation Receivables shall be released upon payment to CMFG of $3,761,000.00 in good funds from collections of Funded Receivables. At all times up until CMFG has been paid $3,761,000.00 in good funds from collections of Funded Receivables, TMP shall maintain a reserve of Non-Workers’ Compensation Receivables in an amount of not less than Twenty Million Dollar ($20,000,000.00) to secure the TMP Obligations.”

LIMITED IRREVOCABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY

 

         TARGETED MEDICAL PHARMA, INC., a Delaware corporation (“TMP”), located at 2980 Beverly Glen Circle, Suite 301, Los Angeles, CA 90077, together with its successors and/or assigns pursuant to the terms of that certain Workers’ Compensation Receivables Funding, Assignment and Security Agreement (CA), dated June 27, 2013, by and between Raven Asset-Based Opportunity Fund I LP (“Raven”), as assignee of Cambridge Medical Funding Group, LLC, and TMP, as amended by that certain First Amendment, dated as of September 30, 2013 (as amended, the “Agreement”), does hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint Raven as its true and lawful attorney for it, and in its name, place and stead, only for the following purposes contemplated and authorized:

 

A.          To execute or endorse in the name of TMP or other names through which it does business: (i) any financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”), or other document required in order to perfect and/or record the security interests intended to be granted to Raven under the Agreement, (ii) any other document or instrument required in connection with the negotiation for its own account, or for the deposit to its own account of payments made to TMP;

 

B.          To receive and endorse any and all checks payable to TMP which represent payments of the accounts receivable referred to in the Agreement, and

 

C.          With full power of substitution and revocation, to ask for, collect, demand and receive; to prosecute and sue for, by proceedings or otherwise, in a court of law or equity; to give acquittance for said money or monies due or to become due, or any part thereof, and to withdraw any claims, suits or proceedings pertaining to, or out of the Agreement, or assignments or other instruments or agreements provided for thereunder.

 

In the event of TMP or Dr. David Silver’s unavailability or failure upon request to execute any instrument or document which Raven may reasonably require be executed for the purposes of effectuating the assignments contemplated in the Agreement, and/or the continuation or perfection of any security interest identified or provided for under the Agreement, including financing statements, termination statement, or other UCC forms, or instruments, or any amendments thereof within one business day of receipt, TMP hereby consents to, and authorizes Raven, as necessary, to execute such instruments on its behalf.

 

         TMP understands that by virtue of making this Power of Attorney, it no longer has the exclusive right or authority to take the acts reflected herein, except as otherwise authorized by Raven.

 

Except upon the express, written consent of Raven, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, this instrument may not be revoked or changed by TMP during the term of the Agreement, and for so long thereafter as Raven has failed to receive in full payments due it under the Agreement for all potential future proceeds related to the Funded receivables that have been assigned to Raven under the Agreement.
