4.19 Controlled Substances. Seller has not engaged in any activities which are prohibited under the Federal Controlled Substances Act, 21 U.S.C. § 801 et seq., or the regulations promulgated pursuant to such statute or any related state or local statutes or regulations concerning the dispensing and sale of controlled substances.

4.20 Customers and Suppliers. Schedule 4.20 hereto sets forth a list of Seller’s fifteen largest customer, referrers of customers and suppliers in order of dollar volume of sales, referrals and purchases, respectively, during its last three fiscal years.

4.21 Insurance. Seller has delivered to Buyer complete and correct copies of all policies of insurance of any kind or nature covering Seller, including, without limitation, policies of life, fire, theft, casualty, product liability, workmen’s compensation, business interruption, employee fidelity and other casualty and liability insurance, indicating the type of coverage, name of insured, the insurer, the premium, the expiration date of each policy and the amount of coverage. All such policies (a) are with insurance companies reasonably believed by Seller to be financially sound and reputable and are in full force and effect; (b) are sufficient for compliance with all requirements of law and of all applicable agreements; (c) are valid, outstanding and enforceable policies; and (d) provide full insurance coverage for the assets and operations of Seller for all risks normally insured against by persons carrying on the same business as Seller.

(a) Schedule 4.22 hereto sets forth a true and complete list of each Employee Benefit Plan.

(b) Each of the Employee Benefit Plans is and has been in compliance with all applicable laws, including without limitation ERISA and the Code in all material respects; each of the Employee Benefit Plans intended to be “qualified” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to Revenue Procedure 93-39 to the effect that such Employee Benefit Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code; no Employee Benefit Plan has or is expected to have an accumulated or waived funding deficiency within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code; neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or is expected to incur, directly or indirectly, any liability (including any contingent liability) to or on account of a Employee Benefit Plan pursuant to Title IV of ERISA; no proceedings have been instituted to terminate any Employee Benefit Plan that is subject to Title IV of ERISA; no “reportable event,” as such term is defined in Section 4043(b) of ERISA, has occurred or is expected to occur with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan; and no condition exists that presents a risk to Seller or any ERISA Affiliate of incurring a liability to or on account of an Employee Benefit Plan pursuant to Title IV of ERISA.

(c) The current value of the assets of each of the Employee Benefit Plans that are subject to Title IV of ERISA, based upon the actuarial assumptions (to the extent reasonable) presently used by the Employee Benefit Plans, exceeds the present value of the accrued benefits under each such Employee Benefit Plan calculated as the projected benefit obligation using the methodology under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 87; no Employee Benefit Plan is a multiemployer plan (within the meaning of Sections 3(37) or 4001(a)(3) of ERISA or Section 414(f) of the Code (“Multiemployer Plan”) and no Employee Benefit Plan is a multiple employer plan subject to Sections 4063 and 4064 of ERISA or as defined in Section 413 of the Code (“Multiple Employer Plan”); and all contributions or other amounts payable by Seller as of the Closing with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan in respect of current or prior plan years have been paid. Neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate is or was obligated to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan. There are no pending, threatened or, to the best knowledge of Seller, anticipated claims (other than routine claims for benefits) by, on behalf of or against any of the Employee Benefit Plans or any trusts related thereto.

(h) Prior to the Closing, Seller shall not amend or terminate any Assumed Contract.

(i) Prior to the Closing, each of Seller and the Shareholders shall use their best efforts to take any action where the failure or omission to take such action would cause (i) any representation or warranty in Article IV hereof to be untrue or incorrect as of the Closing or (ii) any of the conditions to the Closing not to be satisfied.

(j) After the Closing, Seller and the Shareholders shall, and agree to cause Seller’s accountant to, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, use their respective best efforts to produce and deliver to Buyer, as soon as practicable (and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date), accrual basis financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, and the three months ended March 31, 2006, that are in accordance with GAAP.

9.1 Non-Competition. Seller and Seller’s Shareholders hereby agree that as a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller and each of Seller’s Shareholders covenant and agree that it, and each of Seller’s officers, directors and Affiliates, and each of Seller’s Shareholder’s Affiliates and immediate family members, shall not, for the period from the date hereof until three (3) years following the Closing Date (the “Restricted

Period”), directly or indirectly, on its own behalf or in the service of or on the behalf of others, as a director, trustee, owner (except as the owner of less than two percent (2%) of the outstanding stock of a publicly held corporation), employee, consultant, advisor, independent contractor or in any other capacity, engage in the business of operating a pharmacy that in any way services or treats, or markets or sells AIDS/HIV products to, AIDS/HIV patients, within seventy-five (75) miles of Seller’s present pharmacy in Los Angeles, California (the “Restricted Territory”). The parties acknowledge that an Affiliate of Seller and/or Seller’s Shareholders presently operates the Olympic Pharmacy. Seller and Seller’s Shareholders represent, warrant, covenant and agree that the Olympic Pharmacy has not serviced or treated, or marketed or sold AIDS/HIV products to, AIDS/HIV patients, and will not service or treat, or market or sell AIDS/HIV products to, AIDS/HIV patients, or otherwise solicit any former customer of Seller.

9.2 Non-Interference.

In the event of a violation, Seller and each of Seller’s Shareholders agree that it would be virtually impossible for Buyer to calculate its monetary damages and that Buyer would be irreparably harmed. If Buyer seeks such temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction, Buyer shall not be required to post any bond with respect thereto, or, if a bond is required, it may be posted without surety thereon. If any restriction contained in this Article IX is held by any court to be unenforceable, or unreasonable, as to time, geographic area or business limitation, Buyer, Seller and each of Seller’s Shareholders agree that such provisions shall be and are hereby reformed to the maximum time, geographic area or business limitation permitted by applicable laws. The parties further agree that the remaining restrictions contained in this Article IX shall be severable and shall remain in effect and shall be enforceable independently of each other. Seller and each of Seller’s Shareholders specifically acknowledge, represent and warrant that the covenants set forth in this Article IX are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer, and that Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement or paid the Purchase Price in the absence of such covenants.

10.2 Indemnification by Seller and Seller’s Shareholders. Seller and each of Seller’s Shareholders shall indemnify and save Buyer and its Affiliates, their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives and all of their successors and assigns (collectively “Buyer Claimants” and individually a “Buyer Claimant”) harmless from and defend each of them from and against any and all demands, claims, actions, liabilities, losses, costs, damages or expenses whatsoever (including any reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”) asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by Buyer Claimants resulting from or arising out of (a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Seller and Seller’s Shareholders contained herein, other than any inaccuracy or breach of which Michael Moran or James Spencer has actual knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach prior to the date hereof; (b) any breach of any covenant or obligation of Seller contained herein; (c) any liability of Seller arising out of events occurring, conditions existing, products sold or activities of Seller; (d) noncompliance with any applicable bulk sales or similar laws (including laws which may impose transferee liability on Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer or create Encumbrances on the Acquired Assets relating to Seller’s liability for sales, use or other taxes or withholdings arising out of the operations of Seller); (e) any liability arising out of or related to Seller’s business prior to Closing, or the assertion against a Buyer Claimant of a claim which, if valid, would constitute a liability arising out of or related to Seller’s business prior to Closing; and (f) any liability to or claim by the Person identified on Schedule 4.12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) in no event shall the aggregate indemnification to be provided by Seller and Seller’s Shareholders solely in respect of matters referred to in clause (a) above exceed the amount of the Purchase Price and (y) Buyer Claimants shall not have a claim for indemnification in respect of matters referred to in clause (a) above unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses for all such claims exceeds $100,000, after which time Buyer Claimants shall be entitled to indemnification for all such claims from the first dollar.

10.3 Indemnification by Buyer. Buyer shall indemnify and save Seller and its respective Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (collectively “Seller Claimants” and individually a “Seller Claimant”) harmless from and defend each of them from and against any and all Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by Seller Claimants resulting from or arising out of (a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained herein; (b) any breach of any covenant or obligation of Buyer contained herein; and (c) except as described in Section 10.2 above, Buyer’s ownership of the Acquired Assets and operation of its business from and after the Closing Date.

(a) The rights and obligations of each party claiming a right to indemnification hereunder (“Indemnitee”) from the other party (“Indemnitor”) shall be governed by the following rules:

(i) The Indemnitee shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of any state of facts which Indemnitee determines will give rise to a claim by the Indemnitee against the Indemnitor based on the indemnity agreements contained herein, stating the nature and basis of said claims and the amount thereof, to the extent known. No failure to give such notice shall affect the indemnification obligations of Indemnitor hereunder, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices such Indemnitor’s ability successfully to defend the matter giving rise to the indemnification claim.

(ii) In the event any action, suit or proceeding is brought against the Indemnitee, with respect to which the Indemnitor may have liability under the indemnity agreements contained herein, then upon the written acknowledgment by the Indemnitor within thirty days of the bringing of such action, suit or proceeding that it is undertaking and will prosecute the defense of the claim under such indemnity agreements and confirming that the claim is one with respect to which the Indemnitor is obligated to indemnify and that it will be able to pay the full amount of potential liability in connection with any such claim, the action, suit or proceeding (including all proceedings on appeal or for review which counsel for the Indemnitee shall deem appropriate) may be defended by the Indemnitor. However, in the event the Indemnitor shall not offer reasonable assurances as to its financial capacity to satisfy any final judgment or settlement, the Indemnitee may assume the defense and dispose of the claim, after 30 days prior written notice to the Indemnitor. The Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the Indemnitee’s own expense unless (A) the employment of such counsel and the payment of such fees and expenses both shall have been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor in connection with the defense of such action, suit or proceeding or (B) the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded and specifically notified the Indemnitor that there may be specific defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnitor.

(iii) In addition, in any event specified in clause (B) of the second sentence of subparagraph (ii) above, the Indemnitor, to the extent made necessary by such different or additional defenses, shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the Indemnitee. If Indemnitor and Indemnitee cannot agree on a mechanism to separate the defense of matters extending beyond the scope of indemnification, such matters shall be defended on the basis of joint consultation.

(iv) The Indemnitee shall be kept fully informed by the Indemnitor of such action, suit or proceeding at all stages thereof, whether or not it is represented by counsel. The Indemnitor shall, at the Indemnitor’s expense, make available to the Indemnitee and its attorneys and accountants all books and records of the Indemnitor relating to such proceedings or litigation, and the parties hereto agree to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any such action, suit or proceeding.

(v) The Indemnitor shall make no settlement of any claims which Indemnitor has undertaken to defend, without Indemnitee’s consent, unless the Indemnitor fully indemnifies the Indemnitee for all losses, there is no finding or admission of violation of law by, or effect on any other claims that may be made against, the Indemnitee and the relief granted in connection therewith requires no action on the part of and has no effect on the Indemnitee.

11.1 Expenses.
