Wells Fargo Bank Iowa,
National Association

Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement


THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) dated as of March 28, 2001 (the “Effective Date”) is between Wells Fargo Bank Iowa, National Association (the “Bank”) and Patient Infosystems, Inc. (the “Borrower”).

BACKGROUND

The Borrower has asked the Bank to renew its existing $2,500,000.00 revolving line of credit, which the Borrower uses for general business purposes. Borrowings under the line are currently evidenced by a $2,500,000.00 promissory note dated December 23, 1999, as modified by a Note Modification Agreement dated March 21, 2000 (the “1999 Note”).

The Bank is agreeable to meeting the Borrower's request, provided that the Borrower agrees to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Revolving Note, this Agreement, and all "Security Documents" described in Exhibit A may collectively be referred to as the "Documents."

In consideration of the promises contained in this Agreement, the Borrower and the Bank agree as follows:

1.
LINE OF CREDIT
1.1
Line of Credit Amount. During the Line Availability Period defined below, the Bank agrees to provide a revolving line of credit (the "Line") to the Borrower. Outstanding amounts under the Line will not, at any one time, exceed TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00).
1.2
Line Availability Period. The "Line Availability Period" will mean the period of time from the Effective Date or the date on which all conditions precedent described in this Agreement have been met, whichever is earlier, through and including March 31, 2002 (the "Line Expiration Date").
1.3
Advances. The Borrower's obligation to repay advances made under the Line will be evidenced by a single promissory note (the "Revolving Note") dated as of the Effective Date and in form and content acceptable to the Bank. Reference is made to the Revolving Note for interest rate and repayment terms. The Revolving Note will replace, but not be deemed to satisfy, the 1999 Note.
2.
EXPENSES
2.1
Origination Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Bank an origination fee of $2,500.00, which shall be paid at closing, and which shall be deemed to be earned upon payment by the Borrower.
2.2
Commitment Fee. During the Line Availability Period the Borrower shall pay the Bank a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Line. This fee shall be calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed in a 360 day year and paid quarterly in arrears beginning June 30, 2001.
2.3
Documentation Expense. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Bank for its reasonable expenses relating to the preparation of the Documents and any possible future amendments to the Documents, which reimbursement may include, but shall not be limited to, reimbursement of reasonable attorneys' fees, including the allocated costs of the Bank's in-house counsel. Despite such reimbursement the Borrower acknowledges that the Bank's counsel is engaged solely to represent the Bank and does not represent the Borrower.
2.3
Collection Expenses. In the event the Borrower fails to pay the Bank any amounts due under this Agreement or under the Documents, the Borrower will pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses incurred by the Bank.
3.
DISBURSEMENTS AND PAYMENTS
3.1
Requests for Advances. Any Line advance permitted under this Agreement must be requested by telephone or in a writing delivered to the Bank (or transmitted via facsimile) by any person reasonably believed by the Bank to be an authorized officer of the Borrower. The Bank will not consider any such request if there is an event which is, or with notice or the lapse of time would be, an event of default under this Agreement. Proceeds will be deposited into the Borrower's account at the Bank or disbursed in such other manner as the parties agree.
3.2
Interest Rate Option Based on LIBOR. In addition to interest rates based on the Base Rate Option defined in the Revolving Note, the Borrower may elect to fix a rate of interest for an agreed upon period of time and principal amount agreeable to the Bank and Borrower based upon the margin stated in the Revolving Note and at an interest rate derived from the current LIBOR rate available to the Bank on national or international money markets for a similar time period and dollar amount.

In order to elect the LIBOR Rate Option, as defined in the Revolving Note, the Borrower must request a quote from the Bank two days prior to funding. This request must designate an amount (the "LIBOR Rate Portion") and a period (the "LIBOR Interest Period"). The LIBOR Rate Portion must be at least $100,000 and the LIBOR Interest Period will be for 30, 60 or 90 days or such other period to which the parties may agree. The Bank shall not be obligated to provide a LIBOR rate quote if it determines that no deposits with an amount and maturity equal to those for which a quotation has been requested are available to it in the London interbank market. The Borrower must orally accept a quote when received or it will be deemed rejected. If accepted, the LIBOR Rate Option will remain in effect for the LIBOR Interest Period specified in the quote. At the end of each LIBOR Interest Period the principal amount subject to the LIBOR Rate Option shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option (as defined in the Revolving Note).
3.3
Payments. All principal, interest and fees due under the Documents shall be paid in immediately available funds as contracted in this Agreement and no later than the payment due date set forth in the statement mailed to the Borrower by the Bank. Should a payment come due on a day other than a day on which the Bank is open for substantially all of its business (a "Banking Day", except as otherwise provided), then the payment shall be made no later than the next Banking Day. For amounts bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate (if any) a Banking Day is a day on which the Bank is open for substantially all of its business and on which dealings in U.S. dollar deposits are carried on in the London interbank market.
4.
SECURITY

All amounts due under this Agreement and the Documents will be secured as provided in Exhibit A. The Borrower also hereby grants the Bank a security interest (independent of the Bank's right of set-off) in its deposit accounts at the Bank and in any other debt obligations of the Bank to the Borrower.
5.
CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

The Borrower must deliver to the Bank the documents described in Exhibit A, properly executed and in form and content acceptable to the Bank, prior to the Bank's initial advance or disbursement under this Agreement.
6.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Bank to enter into this Agreement, the Borrower, to the best of its knowledge and upon due inquiry, makes the representations and warranties contained in Exhibit B. Each request for an advance under this Agreement constitutes a reaffirmation of these representations and warranties.
7.
COVENANTS

During the time period that credit is available under this Agreement, and thereafter until all amounts due under the Documents are paid in full, unless the Bank shall otherwise agree in writing, the Borrower agrees to:
7.1
Financial Information
(a)
Annual Financial Statements. Provide the Bank within 120 days of the Borrower's fiscal year end, the Borrower's annual audited financial statements.
(b)
Notices. Provide the Bank prompt written notice of (1) any event which has or might after the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, constitute an event of default under the Documents, or (2) any event that would cause the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement to be untrue.
(c)
Additional Information. Provide the Bank with such other information as it may reasonably request, and permit the Bank to visit and inspect its properties and examine its books and records.
7.2
Other Covenants
(a)
Nature of Business. Refrain from engaging in any line of business materially different from that presently engaged in by the Borrower.
(b)

These covenants were negotiated by the Bank and Borrower based on information provided to the Bank by the Borrower. A breach of a covenant is an indication that the risk of the transaction has increased. As consideration for any waiver or modification of these covenants, the Bank may require: additional collateral, guaranties or other credit support; higher fees or interest rates; and possible modifications to the Documents and the monitoring of the Agreement. The waiver or modification of any covenant that has been violated by the Borrower will be made in the sole discretion of the Bank. These options do not limit the Bank's right to exercise its rights under Section 8 of this Agreement.
8.

Default

Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events of default, or at any time afterward unless the default has been cured, the Bank may declare the Line to be terminated and in its discretion accelerate and declare the unpaid principal, accrued interest and all other amounts payable under the Revolving Note to be immediately due and payable:

(d)

(e)
Any representation or warranty made by the Borrower to the Bank in this Agreement, or in any financial statement or report submitted to the Bank by or on behalf of the Borrower or by or on behalf of the Guarantor before or after the Effective Date is untrue or misleading in any material respect.
(f)
Any litigation or governmental proceeding against the Borrower seeking an amount that would have a material adverse effect on the Borrower or the Borrower's operations and which is not insured or subject to indemnity by a solvent third party either 1) results in a judgment equal to or in excess of that amount against the Borrower or 2) remains unresolved on the 270th day following its filing.
(g)
A garnishment, levy or writ of attachment, or any local, state, or federal notice of tax lien or levy is served upon the Bank for the attachment of property of the Borrower in the Bank's possession or indebtedness owed to the Borrower by the Bank.
(h)
The Guarantor dies or becomes insolvent or is the subject of a voluntary or involuntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code, or the Guarantor is in default with respect to any liabilities or indebtedness owed to the Bank which would permit the Bank to accelerate his indebtedness.
