(b) The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and duly authorized agents, and each Person or entity, if any, who controls the Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, together with its controlling persons from and against any Damages, joint or several, and any action in respect thereof to which the Company, its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and duly authorized agents, and any such controlling person becomes subject to, resulting from, arising out of or relating to any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of the Investor contained in this Agreement, as such Damages are incurred, unless such Damages result primarily from the Company's gross negligence, recklessness or bad faith in performing its obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the maximum aggregate liability of the Investor shall be limited to the amount by which the total price at which the Registrable Securities of the Investor were sold to the public exceeds the amount actually paid by the Investor under this Agreement for such Registrable Securities sold to the public, and provided, further, that in no event shall this provision be deemed to limit any rights to indemnification arising under the Registration Rights Agreement. 25 26 Section 9.2. Method of Asserting Indemnification Claims. All claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party (as defined below) under Section 9.1 shall be asserted and resolved as follows: (a) In the event any claim or demand in respect of which any person claiming indemnification under any provision of Section 9.1 (an "Indemnified Party") might seek indemnity under Section 9.1 is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a person other than the Company, the Investor or any Affiliate of the Company (a "Third Party Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notification, enclosing a copy of all papers served, if any, and specifying the nature of and basis for such Third Party Claim and for the Indemnified Party's claim for indemnification that is being asserted under any provision of Section 9.1 against any person (the "Indemnifying Party"), together with the amount or, if not then reasonably ascertainable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such Third Party Claim (a "Claim Notice") with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Claim Notice with reasonable promptness after the Indemnified Party receives notice of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim to the extent that the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend has been irreparably prejudiced by such failure of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable within the period ending 30 calendar days following receipt by the Indemnifying Party of either a Claim Notice or an Indemnity Notice (as defined below) (the "Dispute Period") whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party under Section 9.1 and whether the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim. (i) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 9.2(a), then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be vigorously prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party (but only with the consent of the Indemnified Party, in the case of any settlement that provides for any relief other than the payment of monetary damages or that provides for the payment of monetary damages as to which the Indemnified Party shall not be indemnified in full pursuant to Section 9.1). The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified Party, at any time prior to the Indemnifying Party's delivery of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this clause (i), file 26 27 any motion, answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate to protect its interests; and provided further, that if requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying Party in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest. The Indemnified Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this clause (i), and except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may take over the control of the defense or settlement of a Third Party Claim at any time if it irrevocably waives its right to indemnity under Section 9.1 with respect to such Third Party Claim. (ii) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9.2(a), or if the Indemnifying Party gives such notice but fails to prosecute vigorously and diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to give any other notice required to be given within the Dispute Period, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted by the Indemnified Party in a reasonable manner and in good faith or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party (with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (ii), if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability hereunder to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party in the manner provided in clause (iii) below, the Indemnifying Party will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party's defense pursuant to this clause (ii) or of the Indemnifying Party's participation therein at the Indemnified Party's request, and the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party in full for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in connection with such litigation. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the 27 28 Indemnified Party pursuant to this clause (ii), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation. (iii) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim under Section 9.1 or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, the Damages in the amount specified in the Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 9.1 and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability or the amount of its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute, and if not resolved through negotiations within the period of 30 calendar days immediately following the Dispute Period, such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with Section 9.3. (b) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim under Section 9.1 against the Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notification of a claim for indemnity under Section 9.1 specifying the nature of and basis for such claim, together with the amount or, if not then reasonably ascertainable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such claim (an "Indemnity Notice") with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by any Indemnified Party to give the Indemnity Notice shall not impair such party's rights hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it has been irreparably prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim or the amount of the claim described in such Indemnity Notice or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim or the amount of the claim described in such Indemnity Notice, the Damages in the amount specified in the Indemnity Notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 9.1 and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability or the amount of its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute, and if not resolved through negotiations within the period of 30 calendar days immediately following the Dispute Period, such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with Section 9.3. Section 9.3. Arbitration. Any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Warrants, including any question regarding its existence, validity, interpretation, breach, or termination, shall be 28 29 referred to and finally resolved in accordance with the International Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitral tribunal may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over any party or any party's assets. (a) The tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators, two of whom shall be appointed by the respective parties and the third, who shall be the chairperson of the tribunal, by the two party-appointed arbitrators within 30 days of the last of their appointments. Save that, if either party should fail to appoint an arbitrator within 30 days of receiving written notice of the appointment of an arbitrator by the other party, the second arbitrator shall, at the written request of the party which has already made an appointment, be appointed forthwith by the American Arbitration Association. Likewise, if the party-appointed arbitrators fail to make an agreed appointment for the chairperson within 30 days of the last of their appointments, the chairperson shall, at the written request of either party, be appointed forthwith by the American Arbitration Association. (b) The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York. (c) This arbitration clause and the conduct of the arbitral proceedings shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C.A. sec. 1 et seq. (d) The language of the arbitration shall be English. (e) Nothing in these dispute resolution provisions shall be construed as preventing either party from seeking conservatory or similar interim relief in any court of competent jurisdiction. (f) To the extent practicable, the arbitral tribunal shall render its award no more than 60 calendar days from the date that the three member tribunal is constituted. The arbitral tribunal shall not lose jurisdiction over the matter based on a failure to render an award within this time period. ARTICLE X MISCELLANEOUS Section 10.1. Fees and Transaction Costs.

PRACTICEWORKS, INC. By: -------------------------------------- Name: Title: AGREED: STOCKTRANS, INC. By: ------------------------------- Name: Title: 42 43 EXHIBIT F FORM OF OPINION OF THE COMPANY'S INDEPENDENT COUNSEL [Date] Crescent International Ltd. c/o GreenLight (Switzerland) SA 84, av Louis-Casai, P.O. Box 42 1216 Geneva, Cointrin Switzerland Re: Stock Purchase Agreement Between Crescent International Ltd. and PracticeWorks, Inc. Ladies and Gentlemen: This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section [6.11] [7.2(g)] of the Stock Purchase Agreement by and between Crescent International Ltd., a Bermuda entity (the "Investor") and PracticeWorks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), dated [DATE] (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), which provides for the issuance and sale by the Company of shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Commitment Shares"), a warrant to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock of the Company to be determined in accordance with the terms of such warrant (the "Incentive Warrant") and warrants to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock of the Company to be determined in accordance with the terms of such warrants (the "Protective Warrants", and together with the Incentive Warrant, the "Warrants") (the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to exercise of the Warrants are referred to herein as the "Warrant Shares"). All terms used herein have the meanings defined for them in the Stock Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein. We have acted as counsel for the Company in connection with the negotiation of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Warrants, and the Registration Rights Agreement between the Investor and the Company, dated [DATE] (the "Registration Rights Agreement" and together with the Stock Purchase Agreement, the "Agreements"). As counsel, we have made such legal and factual examinations and inquires as we have deemed advisable or necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion. In addition, we have examined, among other things, originals or copies of such corporate records of the Company, certificates of public officials and such other documents and questions of law that we consider necessary or advisable for the purpose of rendering this opinion. In such examination we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on original documents, the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all copies submitted to us as copies thereof, the legal capacity of natural persons, and the due execution and delivery of all documents (except as to due execution and delivery by the Company) where due execution and delivery are a prerequisite to the effectiveness thereof. As used in this opinion, the expression "to our knowledge" refers to the current actual knowledge of the attorneys of this firm who have worked on matters for the Company solely in connection with the Agreements and the Warrants and the transactions contemplated thereby. 43 44 For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed that you have all requisite power and authority, and have taken any and all necessary corporate action, to execute and deliver the Agreements, and we are assuming that the representations and warranties made by the Investor in the Agreements and pursuant thereto are true and correct. Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: 1. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite power and authority (corporate and other) to carry on its business and to own, lease and operate its properties and assets as described in the Company's SEC Documents. To our knowledge, the Company does not own more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding capital stock of or control any other business entity. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the Company owns or leases property, other than those in which the failure so to qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 2.
