For the three-month period ended March 31, 1999, the effect of the assumed exercise of options to purchase approximately 39,000 shares of Common Stock at exercise prices of $5.00 per share and warrants to purchase approximately 75,000 shares of Common Stock at exercise prices ranging from $4.94 to $8.54 per share were excluded in computing the diluted per share amount because the exercise prices of the options and warrants were greater than the average market price of the shares of Common Stock, therefore causing these options and warrants to be antidilutive. For the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, the effect of the assumed exercise of options to purchase approximately 253,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase approximately 92,000 shares of Common Stock at exercise prices ranging from $8.12 to $15.00 per share and from $36.08 to $41.36 per share, respectively, were excluded in computing the diluted per share amount because the exercise prices of the options and warrants were greater than the average market price of the shares of Common Stock, therefore causing these options and warrants to be antidilutive. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, approximately 133,000 and 127,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively, from the assumed conversion of Preferred Stock were excluded in computing the diluted per share amount as they were anti-dilutive. 7 INTEGRAMED AMERICA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 5 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS: In April 1999, the Company formed a new wholly owned subsidiary, IntegraMed Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. ("IPS"). IPS is based in Carrollton, Texas and will be licensed to distribute pharmaceutical products directly to patients in most of the United States and in all states where the Company's managed Reproductive Science Centers are currently located. IPS will be engaged in the retail distribution of drugs, pharmaceuticals and products related to the treatment of human fertility ("Pharmaceutical Products") to customers of the Reproductive Science Centers. IPS was formed in conjunction with IVP Pharmaceutical Care, Inc., a licensed pharmacy specializing in dispensing Pharmaceutical Products, which will provide certain management services to IPS. Effective April 1, 1999, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback transaction with Fleet Capital Corporation ("FCC") related to new computer equipment and billing software acquired by the Company primarily during the first quarter of 1999. Pursuant to this transaction, the Company sold approximately $532,000 of equipment and software to FCC and contemporaneously entered into a four-year capital lease of this equipment with FCC for the same amount. The Company did not recognize a gain on the sale of the equipment or software. Under the lease, rental payments of approximately $12,900 are due monthly for forty-eight months commencing on April 1, 1999. Effective May 1, 1999, the Company entered into a new management agreement (the "New Agreement") with the Medical Practice at the Reproductive Science Associates Network Site (the "RSA Medical Practice") located in Kansas City, Missouri. The New Agreement contemplates that the Company will offer other medical practices, via separate management agreements, use of the medical offices and clinical space which are currently provided by the Company and utilized by the RSA Medical Practice. The New Agreement also provides for certain changes in the financial arrangements between the Company and the RSA Medical Practice. 8 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this quarterly report and with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. Results of Operations The following table shows the percentage of revenues represented by various expense and other income items reflected in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations.
For the three-month period ended March 31, ------------------- 1999 1998 ---- ---- (unaudited) Revenues, net............................................ 100% 100% Costs of services incurred on behalf of Network Sites: Employee compensation and related expenses.......... 38.6% 42.7% Direct materials.................................... 10.4% 9.0% Occupancy costs..................................... 6.4% 8.1% Depreciation........................................ 2.9% 3.4% Other expenses...................................... 19.5% 14.0% ---- ---- Total costs of services............................. 77.8% 77.2% Network Sites' contribution.............................. 22.2% 22.8% General and administrative expenses...................... 13.1% 13.3% Amortization of intangible assets........................ 2.3% 2.2% Interest income..........................................

Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999 (the "first quarter of 1999") were approximately $10.5 million as compared to approximately $8.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 (the "first quarter of 1998"), an increase of 26.3%. The increase in revenues was attributable to same market growth and to there being a full quarter of revenues from the Shady Grove Network Site which was acquired in mid-March 1998. Same market growth in revenues was principally attributable to increases in patient volume. The aggregate increase in revenues was comprised of the following: (i) an approximate $1.8 million increase in reimbursed costs of services; and (ii) an approximate $433,000 increase in the Company's management fees derived from the managed Medical Practices' net revenue and/or earnings. Total costs of services as a percentage of revenues were 77.8% in the first quarter of 1999 as compared to 77.2% in the first quarter of 1998. Direct materials and other expenses increased primarily due to the increase in patient 9 volume at the managed Medical Practices. Employee compensation and related expenses, occupancy costs and depreciation as a percentage of revenues decreased primarily due to the significant increase in revenues. Network Sites' contribution was approximately $2.3 million in the first quarter of 1999 as compared to $1.9 million in the first quarter of 1998, an increase of approximately 22.8%. Such increase resulted from there being a full quarter of Network Site contribution from the Shady Grove Network Site, which was acquired late in the first quarter of 1998, and the increase in revenues at existing Network Sites. As a percentage of revenues, Network Sites' contribution decreased to 22.2% in the first quarter of 1999 as compared to 22.8% in the first quarter of 1998, primarily due to increases in contractual allowances related to lower reimbursements under managed care contracts. General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 1999 were approximately $1.4 million as compared to approximately $1.1 million in the first quarter of 1998, an increase of 24.0%. The increase was largely due to an increase in staffing, consulting and other costs attributable to the development, implementation and maintenance of the Company's proprietary ArtWorks(TM) suite of fertility care information systems, and to an increase in marketing costs. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses decreased to approximately 13.1% from approximately 13.3% due to the increase in revenues previously discussed. Amortization of intangible assets was $244,000 in the first quarter of 1999 as compared to $181,000 in the first quarter of 1998. This increase was attributable to the Company's acquisition of the Shady Grove Network Site late in the first quarter of 1998. This increase was partially offset by the elimination of amortization of exclusive management rights associated with two single-physician Network Site management agreements which were terminated and written off in 1998. Interest income for the first quarter of 1999 increased to $23,000 from $12,000 for the first quarter of 1998, due to a higher cash balance. Interest expense for the first quarter of 1999 increased to $135,000 from $72,000 in the first quarter of 1998, due to an increase in bank borrowings and in amounts payable to Medical Providers for exclusive management rights. The provision for income taxes primarily related to state taxes. The provision for income taxes increased to $80,000 in the first quarter of 1999 from $49,000 in the first quarter of 1998 due to the increase in Network Site contribution at existing sites and to the addition of the Shady Grove Network Site. Income from continuing operations was $518,000 in the first quarter of 1999 as compared to $498,000 in the first quarter of 1998. The increase was primarily due to the $433,000 increase in Network Sites' contribution, which was partially offset by increases in general and administrative expenses, amortization of intangible assets and interest expense. Net income increased to $518,000 in the first quarter of 1999 as compared to $210,000 in the first quarter of 1998 due to the increase in income from continuing operations and the elimination of losses from the AWM Division which is classified as discontinued operations and was sold in the third quarter of 1998. Liquidity and Capital Resources Historically, the Company has financed its operations primarily through sales of equity securities. More recently, the Company has commenced using bank financing for working capital and acquisition purposes. The Company anticipates that its acquisition strategy will continue to require substantial capital investment. Capital is needed not only for additional acquisitions, but also for the effective integration, operation and expansion of the Company's existing Network Sites. The Medical Practices may require capital for renovation and expansion and for the addition of medical equipment and technology. At March 31, 1999, the Company had working capital of approximately $7.4 million, approximately $2.3 million of which consisted of cash and cash equivalents, compared to working capital of approximately $7.7 million at 10 December 31, 1998, approximately $4.2 million of which consisted of cash and cash equivalents. The net decrease in working capital at March 31, 1999 was principally due to purchases of fixed assets and leasehold improvements of approximately $1.3 million and to the repurchase of 110,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $509,000, partially offset by decreases in patient deposits and accrued liabilities. Effective April 1, 1999, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback transaction with Fleet Capital Corporation ("FCC") related to new computer equipment and billing software acquired by the Company primarily during the first quarter of 1999. Pursuant to this transaction, the Company sold approximately $532,000 of equipment and software to FCC and contemporaneously entered into a four-year capital lease of this equipment with FCC for the same amount. The Company did not recognize a gain on the sale of the equipment or software. Under the lease, rental payments of approximately $12,900 are due monthly for forty-eight months commencing on April 1, 1999. Year 2000 Issue The Company's management has recognized the need to ensure that its operations and relationships with its vendors and other third parties will not be adversely impacted by software processing errors arising from calculations using the year 2000 and beyond ("Y2K"). As such, the Company has appointed a Y2K Task Force to identify and assess the risks associated with its information systems and operations, and its interactions with vendors and third-party insurance payors ("the Y2K Project"). The Y2K Project is comprised of five phases as follows: 1) identification of risks, 2) assessment of risks, 3) development of remediation and contingency plans, 4) implementation, and 5) testing. The Company has identified the Y2K risks and is approximately 75% complete in assessing these risks. The Company is currently working on the last three phases of the Y2K Project. The Company believes that the Y2K risks associated with its information systems and certain medical equipment may be potentially significant. In nearly all cases, the Company is relying on assurances from third party vendors that certain information systems and medical equipment will be Y2K compliant. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Company has made capital investments in certain vendor supplied software applications and hardware systems to address the financial and operational needs of its business. These systems, which will improve the efficiencies and productivity of the replaced systems, have been represented to be Y2K compliant by the vendors and have been or will be installed by November 1999. The Company has tested, is currently testing or will have tested such vendor supplied systems and equipment, but cannot be sure that its tests will be adequate or that, if problems are identified, they will be addressed in a timely and satisfactory manner. The Company is also highly dependent upon receiving payments from third party payors for insurance reimbursement for claims submitted by the managed Medical Practices, and as such, the ability of such payors to process claims submitted by Medical Practices accurately and timely, constitutes a significant risk to the Company's cash flow. Individual Network Sites have been or will be in communication with these payors throughout the country to insure that these payors will be Y2K compliant and will be able to process the Medical Practices' claims uninterrupted. In addition, the Company deals with numerous financial institutions, all of whom have indicated that the Y2K compliance issue is being addressed proactively and should not present a problem on or after January 1, 2000. 11 As the Company and its managed Medical Practices are primarily reliant on third party vendors and payors to be Y2K compliant, the Company does not anticipate that it will incur a material incremental cost associated with addressing Y2K problems. To date, all of the Company's capital projects regarding information systems were part of its long-term capital strategic plan. The timing of implementation of these capital projects was not accelerated as a result of the Y2K issue, with the exception of the timing of the installation of a new financial system at the FCI Network Site which was accelerated from the year 2000 to 1999. The Company estimates that it will incur an aggregate cost of $315,000 related to the Y2K Project as follows: (i) approximately $140,000 related to computer hardware and software and medical equipment replacements and upgrades, of which approximately 90% will be capitalizable due to the added value of such replacements and upgrades; (ii) approximately $130,000 of non-incremental employee opportunity costs for time spent by information systems and Y2K Task Force employees who would have ordinarily been spending their time elsewhere; and (iii) approximately $45,000 in incremental staffing costs. By accelerating the implementation of the new financial system at the FCI Network Site, approximately $110,000 of capitalizable equipment and software costs and approximately $50,000 of training costs will be incurred in 1999 instead of the year 2000. In the event any third parties cannot timely provide the Company with information systems, equipment or services that meet the Y2K requirements, the Company's ability and that of its managed Medical Practices to offer services and to process sales, and the Company's cash flows, could be disrupted. In addition, if the Company fails to satisfactorily resolve Y2K issues related to its operations in a timely manner, it could be exposed to liability, particularly to the managed Medical Practices and their patients. As developed to date, the Company's contingency plan provides for the following: (i) stockpiling higher than normal inventories of critical supplies; (ii) ensuring an adequate line of bank credit if third party payor payments are disrupted; and (iii) ensuring all critical staff are available or scheduled for work prior to, during and immediately after December 31, 1999. Management believes that the Company is taking reasonable and adequate measures to address Y2K issues. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's information systems, medical equipment and other non- information technology systems will be Y2K compliant on or before December 31, 1999, or that vendors and third-party insurance payors are, or will be, Y2K compliant, or that the costs required to address the Y2K issue will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. Like virtually every company, and indeed every aspect of contemporary society, the Company is at risk for the failure of major infrastructure providers to adequately address potential Y2K problems. The Company is highly dependent on a variety of public and private infrastructure providers to conduct its business in numerous jurisdictions throughout the country. Failures of the banking system, basic utility providers, telecommunication providers and other services, as a result of Y2K problems, could have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to conduct its business. While the Company is cognizant of these risks, a complete assessment of all such risks is beyond the scope of the Company's Y2K Project or ability of the Company to address. The Company has focused its resources and attention on the most immediate and controllable Y2K risks. Forward Looking Statements This Form 10-Q and discussions and/or announcements made by or on behalf of the Company, contain certain forward-looking statements regarding events and/or anticipated results within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the attainment of which involve various risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as, "may," "will," "expect," "believe," "estimate," "anticipate," "continue," or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms. The Company's actual results may differ materially from those described in these forward- looking statements due to the following factors: the Company's ability to acquire additional management agreements, including the Company's ability to raise additional debt and/or equity capital to finance future growth, the loss of significant management agreement(s), the profitability or lack thereof at Reproductive Science Centers managed by the Company, the Company's ability to transition sole practitioners to group practices, increases in overhead due to expansion, the exclusion of infertility and ART services from insurance coverage, government laws and regulations regarding health care, changes in managed care contracting, the timely development of and acceptance of new infertility, ART and/or genetic technologies and techniques and the risks relating to Y2K. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Not applicable. 12 Part II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. On October 9, 1998, W.F. Howard, M.D., P.A., filed a lawsuit against the Company in the District Court of Denton County, Texas, seeking to rescind the management agreement (the "Management Agreement") related to the Dallas Network Site, or collect damages, on the ground that its practice has not realized the degree of growth or increases as allegedly projected by the Company. The complaint asserts alleged breaches of contract, fiduciary duties and warranties, as well as a claim under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and claims lost profit damages as well as an exemplary award under statute. The Company believes that this complaint is without merit, denies the allegations, and intends to vigorously defend its position. Despite the filing of the suit, the Company continued to perform its obligations under the Management Agreement. On March 30, 1999, W.F. Howard, M.D., P.A., communicated its intent to terminate the Management Agreement and no longer allowed the Company to provide its management services to the Dallas Network Site. The Company immediately terminated the Management Agreement for cause, and interposed several counterclaims, against the P.A., Dr. W.F. Howard and two former Company employees of the Network Site. These counterclaims allege breach of fiduciary duties, interference with the Company's contractual relations and conversion of assets. The Company also sought, and was provided, return of its confidential and proprietary business documents and the P.A.'s cessation of use of the name "Reproductive Science Center". The Company intends to vigorously pursue all counterclaims, both as against the P.A. and the individuals named as parties to the lawsuit. Litigation counsel has advised the Company that it is too early in the litigation to meaningfully assess the likelihood of success of this lawsuit. Nonetheless, counsel believes that even an unfavorable result will not have a material adverse effect on the results of the Company's operations. On May 4, 1999, the Court of Appeals of New York, in a lawsuit encaptioned Karlin v. IVF America, et. al., determined that plaintiffs' claims could be heard under the New York consumer protection statute, General Business Law ss.ss. 349 and 350. The case was originally instituted in New York Supreme Court, Westchester County, in 1995. Plaintiffs originally denominated the case as a class action, and their request for certification as a class was denied by both the trial and appellate courts (Appellate Division, Second Department). The Court of Appeals refused to review the denial of class action status. The case now represents a single individual claim. The action seeks damages from the Company, United Hospital and Dr. John Stangel, for pecuniary loss and personal injuries, purportedly arising out of an alleged misstatement of success rates at the in vitro fertilization program at United Hospital which was managed by the Company at that time. The complaint originally asserted multiple causes of action; however, through motion practice, the defendants have achieved dismissal of all causes of action except the General Business Law claims which were reinstated by the Court Appeals in May 1999. The Company intends to vigorously defend the remaining cause. Litigation counsel has advised the Company that its position is supported on the merits and that the action, even if successful, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company. There are other minor legal proceedings to which the Company is a party. In the Company's view, the claims asserted and the outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or the cash flows of the Company.

If Providers are dissatisfied with the services of any person employed by Management Company and working at the Facilities, Providers will consult with Management Company. Management Company shall in good faith determine whether the employment of that employee warrants termination. The overriding principle and goal of facilitating the Providers' provision of high quality medical care and laboratory services will govern Management Company's obligations to personnel described herein. Personnel assignments shall be made to ensure consistent and continued rendering of quality support services in the Facilities and to ensure prompt availability and accessibility of individual medical support staff to Physician-Employees in order to develop constant, familiar, and routine working relationships between individual Physician-Employees and individual members of the support staff.

No other physician or medical practitioner shall be permitted to use or occupy the Facilities without the prior written consent of Management Company, except in the case of a medical emergency, in which event, notification shall be provided to Management Company as soon after such use or occupancy as possible. 4.3 EMPLOYMENT OF PHYSICIAN-EMPLOYEES AND OTHER PROFESSIONAL EMPLOYEES. In the event PA shall determine that additional physicians are necessary, PA shall undertake and use its best efforts to locate physicians who, in PA's judgment, possess the credentials and expertise necessary to enable such physician candidates to become affiliated with PA for the purpose of providing Infertility Services. PA shall cause each Physician-Employee to enter into an employment agreement in a form that is mutually acceptable to PA and Management Company ("Physician-Employment Agreement"), which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld by either party. As long as Elwyn M. Grimes, MD ("Dr. Grimes"), remains the sole shareholder and Physician-Employee of PA, Management Company shall not withhold acceptance of Dr. Grimes' Physician-Employment Agreement on the basis that it lacks a non-compete provision. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 4.6.4 and 5.2.8 of this Agreement, PA shall have complete control of and responsibility for the hiring, compensation, supervision, evaluation, and termination of its Physician-Employees, although at the request of PA, Management Company shall consult with PA respecting such matters. 4.4 CONTINUING MEDICAL EDUCATION. PA shall require its Physician-Employees to participate in such continuing medical education as PA deems to be reasonably necessary for such physicians to remain current in the provision of Infertility Services. 4.5 PROFESSIONAL INSURANCE ELIGIBILITY.PA shall cooperate in the obtaining and retaining of professional liability insurance by assuring that its Physician-Employees and Other Professional Employees, if applicable, are insurable and participating in an on-going Risk Management Program, under Management Company's directions. 4.6 DIRECTION OF PRACTICE. PA, as a continuing condition of Management Company's obligations under this Agreement, shall at all time during the Term be and remain legally organized and operated to provide Infertility Services in a manner consistent with state and federal laws. In furtherance of which: 4.6.1 PA shall operate and maintain at the Facilities, on a non-exclusive basis, a full-time practice of medicine specializing in the provision of Infertility Services and shall maintain and enforce the Physician-Employment Agreements. PA covenants that it shall not employ any physician, or have any physician as a shareholder, unless said physician shall sign a Physician Employment Agreement prior to assuming the status as employee and/or shareholder of PA. 4.6.2 PA shall not, except in accordance with the Physician-Employment Agreement or as otherwise stated herein, terminate any Physician-Employment Agreement, amend or modify any Physician-Employment Agreement in any material manner, waive any material rights of the PA thereunder without the prior written approval of Management Company, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. PA may amend or modify the Physician-Employment Agreements without Management Company's consent in order to comply with applicable law. In addition, in the exercise of Management Company's sole discretion, if PA fails to pursue the enforcement of its rights against a Physician-Employee, Management Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to direct, initiate, or join in a lawsuit to enforce the provisions of any Physician Employment Agreement and PA shall assign its rights and remedies against such Physician-Employee upon the request of Management Company. 4.6.3 Recognizing that Management Company would not have entered into this Agreement but for the PA's covenant to maintain and enforce the Physician-Employment Agreements, subject to the limitations stated in Section 4.6.2, and in reliance upon a Physician-Employee's observance and performance of all of the obligations under a Physician Employment Agreement, any damages, liquidated damages, compensation, payment, or settlement received by the PA from a physician whose employment is terminated, shall be paid to Management Company in proportion to Management Company's loss or damages. 4.6.4 PA shall retain that number of Physician-Employees as are reasonably necessary and appropriate for the provision of Infertility Services. However, PA agrees that it will not hire more physicians than consented to by the Joint Practice Management Board, which shall not be unreasonable in giving its consent. Each Physician-Employee shall hold and maintain a valid and unrestricted license to practice medicine in the applicable jurisdiction where such Physician-Employee provides Infertility Services on behalf of PA, and shall be board eligible in the practice of gynecology, with training in the subspecialty of infertility and assisted reproductive medicine. PA shall be responsible for paying the compensation and benefits, as applicable, for all Physician-Employees, and for withholding, as required by law, any sums for income tax, unemployment insurance, social security, or any other withholding required by applicable law. Management Company may, on behalf of the PA, and at PA's request, administer the compensation with respect to such Physician-Employees in accordance with the written agreement between the PA and each Physician-Employee. Management Company shall neither control nor direct any Physician in the performance of Infertility Services for patients, and Management Company will not unreasonably interfere with the employer-employee relationship between PA and its Physician-Employees. 4.6.5 PA shall insure that Physician-Employees provide patient care and clinical backup as required to insure the proper provision of Infertility Services to patients of the PA at the Facilities set forth in Exhibit 3.2, and/or such other location as shall be mutually agreed to by PA and Management Company. PA shall insure that its Physician-Employees devote substantially all of their professional time, effort and ability to PA's practice, including the provision of Infertility Services and the development of such practice. PA shall insure that Physician-Employees timely (within 24 hours of rendering services) note in all patient charts, any and all procedures performed and services rendered so that proper billing of patients and third-party payors can be performed by Management Company. 4.6.6 PA covenants to obtain necessary licenses and operate clinical laboratory and tissue bank services in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations. PA agrees that any Medical Director(s) or Tissue Bank Director(s) shall be Physician-Employees or Other Professional Employees, if applicable, of the PA who meet the qualifications required by applicable State law or regulation, and that should there be a vacancy in any such position, PA will cause another Physician-Employee or Other Professional Employee, if applicable, to fill such vacancy in accordance with applicable State law. 4.6.7 PA acknowledges that it bears all medical obligations to patients treated at the Facilities and PA and Midwest covenant that they are responsible for all tissue, specimens, embryos or biological material ("Biological Materials") kept at the Facilities on behalf of the patients (or former patients) of PA or Midwest. In the event of a termination or dissolution of PA or Midwest, or the termination of this Agreement for any reason, PA and Midwest will have the obligation to account to its patients and to arrange for the storage or disposal of such Biological Materials in accordance with patient consent and the ethical guidelines of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine ("Relocation Program"). Management Company, in such event, will, at the request of the PA, assist in the administrative details of such a Relocation Program. These obligations shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 4.6.8 Except for circumstances outside the control of PA or Shareholders of PA, PA covenants not to terminate or dissolve as a professional services corporation except on six months prior written notice to Management Company. In the event that such termination or dissolution occurs, for a reason other than the death or disability of all of the shareholders, or any successor entity fails to continue the medical practice of PA substantially in the form contemplated by this Agreement, PA and its individual shareholders, shall indemnify Management Company for: (a) the actual costs of maintaining the Facilities and any reasonably necessary Other Professional Employees during a Relocation Program (Section 4.6.7); and (b) any damages, costs, liabilities, including reasonable attorneys fees, arising from claims, suits, causes of action or proceedings, brought by a patient of the PA having an interest in any Biological Materials kept at the Facilities. These obligations shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 4.7 PHYSICIAN-EMPLOYEES, SUPERVISION OF OTHER PROFESSIONAL AND TECHNICAL EMPLOYEES. PA will ensure that each Physician-Employee: 4.7.1 Maintains a current, valid, unrestricted license or other applicable authorization to practice his or her profession in the State of Missouri, and maintains good and unrestricted standing with the authority responsible for such licensure or authorization; 4.7.2 Performs professional services at the Facilities in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and prevailing standards of care in the community; 4.7.3 Maintains his or her professional skills through continuing education and training; 4.7.4 Maintains eligibility for insurance; and 4.7.5 Does not ask or direct any Management Company employee to engage in any conduct that violates any federal, local or state law or regulation, or ask or direct any Management Company employee to engage in conduct for which said employee is not licensed to perform or engage. 4.8 PRACTICE DEVELOPMENT, COLLECTION EFFORTS AND NETWORK INVOLVEMENT. PA agrees that during the term of this Agreement, PA covenants for itself and will use its best efforts to cause its Physician-Employees to: 4.8.1 Execute such documents and take such steps reasonably necessary to assist billing and collecting for patient services rendered by PA, Midwest and Physician-Employees; 4.8.2 Promote PA's medical practice and Midwest's Infertility Services and participate in marketing efforts developed by Management Company, and approved by PA and the Joint Practices Management Board. 4.8.3 Participate in Management Company Reproductive Science Center Network activities and programs such as the Physician and Scientist Council. 4.9 PERSONNEL POLICIES. PA covenants for itself and will cause its Physician-Employees and any other employees to comply with reasonable personnel policies and guidelines developed for the PA and Midwest by Management Company and/or the Joint Practice Management Board, which shall include administrative protocols and policies designed to insure that the Facilities comply with all applicable laws and regulations, federal, state and local. 4.10 MIDWEST. Midwest shall provide clinical laboratory services to patients in compliance at all times with all applicable ethical standards, laws and regulations.

Beginning with the 13th month of this Agreement and on a quarterly basis thereafter, the Initial Monthly Cost of Services will be adjusted and, as adjusted, will equal the product of (i) Revenue for the previous 3 months divided by total revenue for all medical services provided at the Facilities for the previous 3 months, multiplied by (ii) Facilities Cost of Services for the previous 3 months ("Adjusted Monthly Cost of Services"). Notwithstanding the above, neither the Initial Monthly Cost of Services nor the Adjusted Monthly Cost of Services for the 36-month period beginning May 1, 1999 and ending April 30, 2002, shall exceed $75,000 per month. 7.1.1.1 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1.1, in the event that Co-Occupants begin utilizing the Facilities during the first 12 months of this Agreement, cost of services paid to Management Company by all occupants, including Providers, for the first 12 months of this Agreement, in excess of the Facilities Cost of Services for the first 12 months of this Agreement shall be remitted to Providers within 60 days after the first 12 months of this Agreement. 7.1.1.2 PA and Management Company recognize and agree that it is in their mutual best interests to cooperate in bringing Co-Occupants into the Facility. Accordingly, Providers agree to use their best efforts to assist Management Company in consummating management agreements with other Co-Occupants as soon as possible.

In the event of a Finding which causes the Alternate Management Fee to become operative, the parties shall, within sixty (60) days of the Finding, account for all payments made prior to the date of the Finding, and recalculate such amounts pursuant to the formula provided for in the Alternate Management Fee. Any overpayment to Management Company resulting from the prior application of Sections 7.1.2 and/or 7.1.3 shall be applied so as to satisfy 50% of each future monthly Alternate Management Fee until the aggregate of such overpayment is fully paid by Management Company. Any underpayment to Management Company resulting from the prior application of Sections 7.1.2 and/or 7.1.3 shall be paid to Management Company commencing on the first day of the next full month following the date of the Finding, in eighteen (18) equally monthly installments. 7.1.5 The right of termination provided for in Section 9.1.3 of this Agreement, if based on the fact that Section 7.1.2 and Section 7.1.3 of this Agreement have been found to be illegal, unenforceable, void, against public policy or forbidden by law, shall only be exercisable in the event that both (i) Sections 7.1.2 and 7.1.3 and (ii) the Alternate Management Fee have been so found by a local, state or federal agency or department, or a court of competent jurisdiction. 7.2 MONTHLY NET INCOME. 7.2.1 On or before the 15th business day of each month, Management Company shall calculate the Receivables arising during the previous calendar month.

If any party shall materially breach its obligations hereunder, then either of the other parties may terminate this Agreement by providing 30 days prior written notice to the breaching party detailing the nature of the breach, provided that the breaching party shall not have cured the breach within such 30-day period, or, with respect to breaches that are not curable within such 30-day period, shall not have commenced to cure such breach within such 30-day period and thereafter shall not have cured the breach with the exercise of due diligence.

In the event that, at any time following the date nine months from the Effective Date of this Agreement, IPSI does not have net income determined in accordance with GAAP for any period of six consecutive months, then any party may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days prior written notice to the other parties. 9.1.6 Terminations pursuant to Sections 9.1.1 through 9.1.3 and the second sentence of Section 9.1.4 inclusive shall be deemed termination for cause ("Termination for Cause"), and shall be made by delivering a termination notice, detailing the reasons therefor, to the non-terminating party, and providing the opportunity to cure under the provisions of Section 9.1.2 above.

IVP will pass along its utilization and market-share rebates to IPSI; however, IVP will not pass along its 2% Gonal F special rebate, its trade discounts received as incentive for timely payment, or its discounts on bulk purchases as defined below. These guidelines yield the following rebate structure as of the Effective Date of this Agreement: Qualifying Rebates (Passed along to IPSI): 1. The variable Serono market-share rebates and the Serono Gonal F Sales Force rebate. 2. The Organon utilization rebates. 3. The Ferring market-share rebates. Non-Qualifying Rebates (Kept by IVP): 1. All rebates given as incentive for timely payment (e.g., 2% 30/ Net 31). 2. The Serono 2% Gonal F special rebate. Other Issues: 1. A few manufacturers, e.g., TAP, do not offer any rebates, and IVP buys at Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC). These products will be billed at net invoice +2%. 2. From time to time, IVP may receive additional discounts from manufacturers for committing to bulk purchases. The quantities usually represent a three- to 12-month supply, and the value of the discounts is partially offset by IVP's cost of capital, storage costs, and property taxes. These discounts will not be passed along to IPSI. 3. WAC will be the basis by which all products are sold to IPSI. Qualifying rebates that are taken by IVP at time of payment will be passed to IPSI on IVP's invoice. Qualifying rebates that are received via check from the manufacture at a later time will be estimated and accrued in the IPSI monthly financials.

Borrower promises to pay to Lender, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($150,000.00) or so much as may be outstanding, together with interest on the unpaid outstanding principal balance, on December 31, 2009 (the "Maturity Date"), or earlier as provided herein. DESCRIPTION OF NOTE. This Note represents a Capitalization Loan, as defined in that certain Management Agreement dated April ___, 1999, by and among, inter alia, Borrower and Lender (the "Management Agreement"). CHOICE OF USUARY CEILING AND INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note has been implemented under the "Indicated Rate Ceiling" as referred to in Article 5069-1.04(a)(1) of Vernon's Texas Civil Statutes, as amended ("V.T.C.S."). The terms, including the rate, or index, formula, or provision of law used to compute the rate, on the Note, will be subject to revision as to current and future balances, from time to time, by notice from Lender in compliance with Article 5069-1.04(i) V.T.C.S. PAYMENT. Except as provided herein, Borrower shall pay this loan in one payment of all outstanding principal plus all accrued unpaid interest on the Maturity Date. Borrower shall make regular yearly payments of accrued but unpaid interest beginning December 31, 1999, and all subsequent interest payments are due on the same day of each year thereafter. Interest on this Note is computed on a 365/360 simple interest basis; i.e., by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding, unless such calculation would result in a usurious rate, in which case interest shall be calculated on a per diem basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing. MANDATORY PREPAYMENT. Borrower shall make mandatory prepayments from time to time equal to a portion of the "Net Profits" of Borrower, as defined in Section 7.1.3 of the Management Agreement, for such periods as Borrower and Lender may mutually agree from time to time, such portion to equal the percentage that the outstanding principal amount of the Capitalization Loan represented by this Note bears to the outstanding principal amount of all Capitalization Loans subject to the Management Agreement. This Note is also subject to acceleration, or this Note may be deemed paid in full, upon the occurrence of certain events described in Article 10 of the Management Agreement. OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT. Borrower may pay without penalty all or any portion of the amount owed prior to the Maturity Date. All prepayments will be applied first against accrued but unpaid interest and then against the outstanding principal balance. VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note may be subject to change from time to time based on changes in the coupon rate for new issuances of 30-Year U.S. Treasuries (the "Index"). Lender shall inform Borrower of the current Index rate upon Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more frequently than once in any three-month period. The Index currently is 5.25% per annum. The interest rate to be applied prior to the Maturity Date to the unpaid principal balance of this Note initially will be at a rate equal to the Index, resulting in an Initial Rate of 5.25% per annum, and shall thereafter be equal to the greater of the Initial Rate or the Index, adjusted if necessary for the maximum rate limitation described below. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. For purposes of this Note, the "maximum rate allowed by applicable law" means the lesser of (a) the maximum rate of interest permitted under federal or other law applicable to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note; or (b) the "Indicated Rate Ceiling" as referred to in Article 5069-1.04(a)(1) V.T.C.S. POST-MATURITY DATE RATE. The Post-Maturity Date Rate on this Note is the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Borrower shall pay interest on all sums due after the Maturity Date at the Post-Maturity Date Rate. DEFAULT. Borrower will be in default, unless waived or deferred by Lender in writing, upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Borrower fails to make any payment when due; (b) Borrower breaches any covenant, obligation, representation, or warranty Borrower has made to Lender, or Borrower fails to perform promptly at the time and strictly in the manner provided in this Note or any agreement related to this Note, or in any other agreement or loan Borrower has with Lender, including the Management Agreement; (c) any representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf is false or misleading in any material respect; or (d) Borrower becomes insolvent, a receiver is appointed for any part of Borrower's property, Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any proceeding is commenced either by Borrower or against Borrower under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws. If any default, other than a default in payment, is curable, it may be cured (and no event of default shall have occurred) if Borrower, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of such default: (a) cures the default within 15 days; or (b) if the cure requires more than 15 days, immediately initiates steps that Lender deems in Lender's reasonable discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical. LENDER=S OBLIGATIONS; THIRD-PARTY CURE AND SUBSTITUTION. In the event of a default in payment that is not waived by Lender, or any other default by Borrower that is not cured pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, Lender shall give written notice to the Company, attention Gerardo Canet, specifying the type and, in the case of a default in payment, amount of such default. The Company shall have the right, within 10 days following such written notice, to cure such default and succeed to all of the rights and obligations of Borrower under this Note. LENDER'S RIGHTS. Upon default by Borrower, Lender may, subject to the Management Agreement, declare the entire indebtedness, including the unpaid principal balance on this Note, all accrued unpaid interest, and all other amounts, costs, and expenses for which Borrower is responsible under this Note or any other agreement with Lender pertaining to this loan, immediately due, without notice, and Borrower must pay such amount. Lender may hire an attorney to help collect this Note if Borrower does not pay, and Borrower will pay Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees. Borrower also will pay Lender all other amounts actually incurred by Lender as court costs, lawful fees for filing, recording, or releasing to any public office any instrument securing this loan; the reasonable costs actually expended for repossessing, storing, preparing for sale, and selling any security; and fees for noting a lien on or transferring a certificate of title to any titled collateral offered as security for this loan, or premiums or identifiable charges received in connection with the sale of authorized insurance. This Note has been delivered to Lender and accepted by Lender in the State of Texas. If there is a lawsuit, and if the transaction evidenced by this Note occurred in Dallas County, Borrower agrees upon Lender's request to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Dallas County, the State of Texas. Lender and Borrower hereby waive the right to any jury trial in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim brought by either Lender or Borrower against the other. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas and applicable federal laws. GENERAL PROVISIONS. If any part of this Note cannot be enforced, this fact will not affect the enforceability of the rest of the Note. In particular, this provision means (among other things) that Borrower does not agree or intend to pay, and Lender does not agree or intend to contract for, charge, collect, take, reserve, or receive (collectively referred to herein as "charge or collect"), any amount in the nature of interest or in the nature of a fee for this loan, which would in any way or event (including demand, prepayment, or acceleration) cause Lender to charge or collect more for this loan than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Any such excess interest or unauthorized fee shall, instead of anything stated to the contrary, be applied first to reduce the principal balance of this loan, and when the principal has been paid in full, be refunded to Borrower. The right to accelerate all sums due under this Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest that has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Lender does not intend to charge or collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full term of the loan evidenced by this Note until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the loan evidence hereby does not exceed the applicable usuary ceiling. Lender may delay or forgo enforcing any of its rights or remedies under this Note without losing them. Borrower and any other person who signs, guarantees, or endorses this Note, to the extent allowed by law, waive presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate this Note, and notice of acceleration of this Note. Upon any change in the terms of this Note, and unless otherwise expressly stated in writing, no party who signs this Note, whether as maker, guarantor, accommodation maker, or endorser, shall be released from liability. All such parties agree that Lender may renew or extend (repeatedly and for any length of time) this loan, or release any party or guarantor or collateral; or impair, fail to realize upon, or perfect Lender's security interest in the collateral without the consent or notice to anyone. All such parties also agree that Lender may modify this loan without the consent of or notice to anyone other than the party with whom the modification is made. SECURITY. This Note is unsecured.
