Each prospective investor is urged to read this Prospectus in its entirety. The Company Medcross, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company") was formed in 1983. On February 23, 1996, the Company acquired I-Link Worldwide, Inc., a Utah corporation ("ILINK"). See "The Company." ILINK is in the business of delivering business communications services via the emerging worldwide data telecommunications networks (which includes the Internet). ILINK seeks to provide business communications solutions and enhanced capabilities to existing users of traditional telecommunications services, at substantial cost savings to its customers, through utilization of the Internet and other existing data communications networks. ILINK's business communication products will be marketed under the name "Fax4Less./TM/" Fax4Less is ILINK's core business communications product. It enables the user to utilize its existing fax machine to send a fax long distance to its ultimate destination, with significant savings on long distance charges. Transmission of the data takes place primarily via flat rate-based data lines such as those found on the Internet. No special fax equipment is required for the user, the person who receives the fax does not need to be a subscriber to Fax4Less and does not need to have any equipment other than a conventional fax machine to receive the fax. The fax arrives in the same form and in the same amount of time as a conventional fax transmission. The Company believes Fax4Less significantly reduces costs immediately, while in many cases, providing better fax service. ILINK will pursue a multi-tiered infrastructure strategy. In some cases, ILINK will establish its own Point of Presence ("POP"). In others, ILINK will partner with national and recognized telephone service resellers and Internet Service Providers ("ISPs"), incenting those organizations to provide the needed POP's engines consistent with ILINK service requirements. ILINK will establish its own POPs incrementally as business needs dictate. Installation of the POP's engines involves pre-configured Fax Engines (consisting of hardware, modems and proprietary software) and communications lines. ILINK will also establish Network Operating Centers ("NOCs") to monitor and maintain the ILINK network. Successful management of the network is critical to providing the highest level of support. See "Business of ILINK." Medcross, Inc. is also an owner and operator of medical diagnostic and therapeutic facilities and equipment including MRI, kidney lithotripsy, and ultrasound. The Company is also a joint venture partner with China National Equipment and Supplies Import and Export Shenyang Corporation, which exports medical equipment to China. See "Business of Medcross." The Company's corporate offices are located at 3227 Bennet Street North, St. Petersburg, FL 33713; telephone: (813) 521-1793. ILINK's corporate offices are located at 65 East Wadsworth Park Drive, Suite 202, Draper, Utah 84020; telephone: (801) 576-5000. 5 Securities Offered Each share of Common Stock of the Company comprising the JW Charles Shares, the Shares, the Conversion Shares, the Commonwealth Shares, the Babcock Shares, the Cook Shares, the E&M Shares and the Mandarino Shares has a par value of $.007 and entitles the holder thereof to equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefor when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, to share ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for distribution to holders of Common Stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company and to have one non-cumulative vote per share upon all matters which stockholders may vote at all meetings of stockholders.

See "Use of Proceeds." 8 RISK FACTORS THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN ARE SPECULATIVE IN NATURE AND INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. SUCH SECURITIES SHOULD BE PURCHASED ONLY BY PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS WHO CAN AFFORD TO LOSE THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT. THEREFORE, EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR SHOULD, PRIOR TO PURCHASE, CONSIDER VERY CAREFULLY THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS, AS WELL AS ALL OF THE OTHER INFORMATION SET FORTH ELSEWHERE HEREIN AND IN THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE NOTES THERETO. Consent of Commonwealth Substantially all of the Securities subject of the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part are subject to restrictions on sale or transfer without the prior written consent of Commonwealth for a period of one year through September 6, 1997. There can be no assurance as to which Securities Commonwealth, in the exercise of its sole discretion, may release from such restrictions or the timing of any such release. The release by Commonwealth of a substantial amount of such Securities may have an adverse affect on the market for the Company's Common Stock. Ongoing Capital Requirements; Need to Raise Additional Financing The conduct of the Company's business and the continued implementation of its business plans and operations (including those of ILINK) will require the availability of additional funds in the future. While the Company currently has no material commitments for capital or other expenditures, other than as set forth herein, it is the Company's intention to continue to implement the growth of its business and expand its operations (including those of ILINK). The Company will require additional financing in order to fund the cash flow operating deficit of ILINK, to expand its business and to discharge outstanding indebtedness. If needed, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully negotiate or obtain additional financing. Nor can there be any assurance that, if available, such financing will be on terms favorable or acceptable to the Company or its securityholders. The Company has a line of credit (the "Line of Credit") with First Union National Bank ("FUNB"). As of September 30, 1996, there was $310,000 outstanding thereunder. The Company had been for months in violation of certain financial covenants contained in the loan agreement governing the Line of Credit, including covenants relating to: (i) cash balances; (ii) consolidated equity; (iii) debt-to-equity ratios; and (iv) cash flow coverage ratios. However, FUNB waived such non-compliance through June 30, 1996. The Company agreed to secure alternative financing to repay amounts outstanding under the Line of Credit by June 30, 1996. The Company was unable to secure such financing, so that the Company is obligated to repay amounts outstanding under the Line of Credit in increments of $10,000 per month commencing July 1, 1996, pursuant to the Company's agreement with FUNB, subject to negotiation of the terms of a balloon payment. The Company is currently in violation of cash flow coverage ratios and past days sales on accounts receivable covenants. However, FUNB has waived such non-compliance through December 31, 1996. In the event that the Company needs additional financing, the absence thereof or the lack of availability thereof on favorable terms could have a material adverse impact on the Company. Acquisition of Development Stage Business; Continuing Losses ILINK is in the development stage and operating at a substantial cash deficit. ILINK has not achieved its planned level of operations or realized significant revenues and has incurred significant losses and is expected to continue to incur losses. A substantial portion of the Company's 9 consolidated operating loss during the 1996 fiscal year resulted from the operations of the Company's subsidiary, ILINK. The Company anticipates that ILINK and, consequently the Company on a consolidated basis, will incur significant continuing net operating losses for at least the remainder of the fiscal year and for a portion of the 1997 fiscal year. Negative Effect of Amortization Expense on Financial Results The excess of fair market value of the shares issued in the ILINK Acquisition over the book value of the assets purchased was recorded by the Company as intangible assets. In addition, certain amortization expense was also realized. Upon the release of 1.6 million shares of the Company's Common Stock held in escrow for the benefit of the former shareholders of ILINK, the Company recorded additional intangible assets in the amount of $9.8 million. The value of those intangible assets was determined by multiplying the market value of the Common Stock times 1.6 million. A substantial portion of the intangible assets are being amortized over the 24-month period commencing February 1996 and additional amortization expense of $576,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996, has been recorded. At September 30, 1996, the aggregate intangible assets recorded was $14.6 million, and $3.63 million was recorded as amortization expense. Additional intangible assets will similarly be recorded upon release of any additional shares from escrow. Reliance on Key Personnel The Company's operations including those of ILINK are dependent upon the continued efforts and employment of its senior management. The officers of the Company have the principal responsibility for management of the Company and are responsible for making recommendations to the Board of Directors which exercises final authority over business decisions. While the Company and ILINK have entered into employment agreements with senior management, the loss of the services of any of the officers or directors could be detrimental to the Company and ILINK. Furthermore, ILINK's future performance depends in significant part upon its ability to attract and retain key technical, systems and sales personnel, none of whom is bound by an employment agreement. Competition for such personnel is intense and there can be no assurance that ILINK will be able to retain its key technical, systems and sales personnel or that it will be able to attract highly qualified personnel in the future. Growth Strategy and Acquisition Activities The Company's ability to achieve planned levels of growth and the timing thereof will be materially impacted by its ability to acquire business communication companies and related businesses. The Company intends to acquire such additional companies with cash and equity securities such as common stock or preferred stock, and/or debt instruments. To the extent that the Company issues equity securities in connection with acquisitions, the equity interest of its then current stockholders will be diluted. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to acquire such additional companies or that it will be able to use its securities in connection with such purchases or that it will have the necessary capital resources to purchase such companies. Although the Company believes that its acquisition strategy will make it attractive to acquisition candidates, there can be no assurance that the Company will successfully implement its acquisition program. See "Business of ILINK." 10 Potential Liability in Connection with Acquisitions The Company could become subject to liabilities arising from any acquisition which it has effected or may hereafter effect in the event that the Company assumes unknown or contingent liabilities or in the event that such liabilities are imposed on the Company under theories of successor liability. If the Company becomes subject to such a liability of sufficient magnitude, such liability could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. See "Business of ILINK." Expectation of Growth The Company plans to expand ILINK's network, which expansion will require additional capital expenditures. There is no assurance that such capital will be available or that it will be available on terms beneficial to the Company. Moreover, the Company's ability to effectively achieve growth will require it to implement and improve operational, financial and management information systems and to train, motivate and manage employees, as well as to create new and expand the number of POPs and successfully market ILINK's product and services. These demands require the addition of new management personnel and the development of additional expertise by existing management. Failure to enhance customer support resources adequately to support increases in subscribers, or to adequately expand and enhance telecommunications infrastructure, may adversely affect the Company's ability to successfully conduct ILINK's business in the future. There can be no assurance that customer support or other resources will be sufficient to achieve future growth or that the Company will be able to implement in whole or in part the planned expansion. Any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company's future operating results. See "Business of ILINK." ILINK Business Competition The market for business communications services is extremely competitive. The Company believes that its ability to compete in ILINK's business successfully will depend upon a number of factors, including the pricing policies of competitors and suppliers; the capacity, reliability, availability and security of ILINK's network infrastructure; market presence and channel development; the timing of introductions of new products and services into the industry; ease of access to and navigation of the Internet or other such networks; the Company's ability in the future to support existing and emerging industry standards; the Company's ability to balance network demand with the fixed expenses associated with network capacity; and industry and general economic trends. While the Company believes there is currently no competitor in the North American market providing the same type of services in the same manner as the Company, there are many companies that offer business communications services, and therefore compete with the Company at some level. These range from large telecommunications companies and carriers such as AT&T, MCI, Sprint and LDDS, to smaller, regional resellers of telephone line access. These companies, as well as others, including manufacturers of hardware and software utilized in the business communications industry, could in the future develop products and services that could compete with those of the Company on a more direct basis. These entities are far better capitalized than the Company and control significant market share in their respective industry segments. In addition, there may be other businesses that are attempting to introduce products similar to the Company's for the transmission of business information over the Internet. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully compete with these market participants. See "Business of ILINK." 11 Dependence on Suppliers ILINK relies on other companies to provide data communications capacity via leased telecommunications lines. A significant portion of the leased telecommunications lines used by ILINK are currently provided by AT&T. As of September 30, 1996, the Company owed AT&T $370,000. If AT&T is unable or unwilling to provide or expand its current levels of service to the Company in the future, the Company's operations could be materially adversely affected. Although leased telecommunications lines are available from several alternative suppliers, there can be no assurance that the Company could obtain substitute services from other providers at reasonable or comparable prices or in a timely fashion. The Company is also subject to risks relating to potential disruptions in such telecommunications services. No assurance can be given that significant interruptions of telecommunications services to the Company will not occur in the future. See "Business of ILINK--ILINK's Contractual Obligations." ILINK is also dependent on certain third party suppliers of hardware components. Although ILINK currently attempts to maintain a minimum of two vendors for each required product, certain components used by ILINK in providing networking services are currently acquired from only one source. ILINK may from time to time experience delays in the receipt of certain hardware components. A failure by a supplier to deliver quality products on a timely basis, or the inability to develop alternative sources if and as required, could result in delays which could materially adversely affect the Company's ability to integrate, conduct and implement expansion of ILINK's business. Software and Service Development; Technological Change The Company's success in ILINK's business is highly dependent upon its ability to develop new software and services that meet changing customer requirements. The market for ILINK's services is characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, emerging competition and frequent new software and service introductions. There can be no assurance that the Company can successfully identify new service opportunities and develop and bring new software and services to the market in a timely manner, or that software, services or technologies developed by others will not render ILINK's software, services or technologies noncompetitive or obsolete in the future. The Company's pursuit of technological advances may require substantial time and expense, and there can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in adapting the services currently provided by ILINK to alternate access devices and conduits. Dependence on Network Infrastructure; Risk of System Failure; Security Risks Key to the quality of ILINK services and the future success of the Company is the capacity, reliability and security of its network infrastructure to support the services. The Company must expand and adapt network infrastructure as the number of users and the amount of information they wish to transfer increases and to meet changing customer requirements. The expansion and adaptation of the network infrastructure will require substantial financial, operational and management resources. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to expand or adapt the network infrastructure to meet additional demand or subscribers' changing requirements on a timely basis, at a commercially reasonable cost, or at all, or that the Company will be able to deploy successfully the contemplated network expansion. Any failure of the Company to expand the network infrastructure, as needed, on a timely basis or to adapt to changing subscriber requirements or evolving industry standards could have a material adverse effect on the Company's overall business, financial condition and results of operations in the future. 12 New and Uncertain Business ILINK is a young business enterprise that is subject to all of the risks that present themselves to early stage companies, including but not limited to limited infrastructure, managerial resources, capitalization and market share. There can be no assurance that ILINK will be able to successfully compete with larger, more mature, better capitalized enterprises. In order to realize subscriber growth, the Company must be able to replace terminating subscribers and attract additional subscribers. However, the sales and marketing expenses and subscriber acquisition costs associated with attracting new subscribers are substantial. Accordingly, the Company's ability to improve operating margins will depend in part on the ability to retain subscribers. The Company plans to invest significant resources in the telecommunications infrastructure, customer support resources, sales and marketing expenses and subscriber acquisition costs. There can be no assurance that the Company's future efforts in this area will improve subscriber retention. Since the market for the Company's services is new and the utility of available services is not well understood by new and potential subscribers, it is not possible to predict future subscriber retention rates. See "Business of ILINK." Government Regulation of Internet-Related Business ILINK's business is not currently subject to direct regulation by the Federal Communications Commission or any other agency, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally. Changes in the regulatory environment relating to the Internet access industry, including regulatory changes which directly or indirectly affect telecommunication costs or increase the likelihood or scope of competition from regional telephone companies or others, could have an adverse effect on the Company's business. The Company cannot predict the impact, if any, that future regulation or regulatory changes may have on its or ILINK's business. Certain Related Party Transactions During the first quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company received advances totalling $218,000 from Mortgage Network International ("MNI"). Henry Y.L. Toh, a director of the Company, has management control over ("MNI"). Such advances were previously payable upon demand. Subsequent to the extension of such advances, the Board of Directors approved delivery of a promissory note representing the aggregate amount of such advances, which promissory note matured by its terms on October 1, 1995 and bears interest at one percent over the prime rate of interest established by Southwest Bank of Texas, N.A. Subsequently, the Company and MNI modified the Note such that: (i) a principal payment in the amount of $88,000 is due and payable on December 31, 1996; (ii) interest thereon is payable monthly at the rate of 10.5%; and (iii) the remaining principal amount of $130,000 with interest thereon at the rate of 10.5% will be paid in 36 equal monthly payments of $4,225.32. The Company is a party to a consulting agreement for the period beginning January 1, 1996 and ending December 31, 1998 with Windy City, Inc. Joel Kanter, a director of the Company until July 30, 1996, is the President and a director of Windy City, Inc. Pursuant to such agreement, Windy City, Inc. was engaged to provide such consulting services as the Company may request in exchange for compensation at the rate of $6,250 per calendar quarter. ILINK was a party to a 12-month consulting agreement with Benchmark, dated August 10, 1995 pursuant to which ILINK was obligated to pay $6,000 per month to Benchmark for consulting services rendered. Benchmark is also party to certain options to purchase shares of Common Stock owned by Four M and to options to purchase shares of Common Stock owned by R. Huston Babcock. Commonwealth and certain affiliates and associates of Commonwealth purchased certain shares of Common Stock from an affiliate of the Company, purchased shares of Class C Preferred Stock from the Company and were granted certain options by Four M. T6-G Limited Partnership and ILINK entered into a consulting agreement for two years commencing upon the successful 13 completion of at least $4,000,000 in funding. The agreement required the payment of a total of $70,000 payable monthly over 24 months. In addition, ILINK discharged its promissory note to T6-G Limited Partnership by the payment of $300,000 from the proceeds of the Class C Offering, which sums were designated by T6-G Limited Partnership for the purchase of Class C Preferred Stock. In August 1996, John Edwards and William Flury loaned ILINK $125,000 and $100,000, respectively, which sums were repaid from the proceeds of the Class C Offering together with original issue discounts of $6,250 and $5,000, respectively. In addition, the Company agreed to issue warrants to purchase 25,000 and 5,000 shares to Mr. Edwards and to Mr. Flury exercisable at $4.87 and $2.50 per share, respectively. In September 1996, the Company advanced the sum of $685,000 to Family Telecommunications, Inc. ("FTI") to be utilized by FTI to acquire from Harris Corporation certain items of telecommunications switches known as "Harris switches." FTI is an authorized Harris reseller and was able to obtain favorable pricing for these switches than could the Company. These Harris switches are included in the equipment covered by the IBM operating lease, and IBM will pay FTI for the switches as a vendor. FTI will then return the funds to the Company. The majority owner of FTI is Robert W. Edwards, a brother of John Edwards, the Company's President and CEO. See "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions." Litigation The Company is a defendant in litigation brought by JW Charles, one of the Selling Securityholders, in connection with rights claimed under the JW Charles Warrants. JW Charles is seeking damages in excess of $2.7 million and other relief. While the Company believes it has meritorious defenses to such action, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully defend such action. See "Legal Proceedings" and "Description of Securities--JW Charles Warrants." Health Care Industry Competition It is common for hospitals, physicians, physician groups, and others in the health care field to form ventures to own and operate medical equipment. The Company is in competition with such groups. There are many companies offering general business consulting services. The companies that may compete with the Company in the future and that currently offer consulting services may be larger and have far greater financial resources than the Company. Also, if the cost of a particular medical device is reduced and the utilization by physicians increases, more hospitals will be able to afford to acquire their own equipment rather than receive service on a shared basis. See "Business of Medcross." New Medical Technology and Obsolescence The medical equipment field is generally characterized by rapidly changing technology. Early obsolescence of expensive equipment or technological change could have an adverse effect on the Company. Therefore, the cost of MRI systems and other medical equipment may be significantly lower in the future, allowing persons who purchase equipment in the future to charge less for similar services and therefore compete on a favorable basis. Government Regulation of Medical Business Various aspects of the Company's current medical business are subject to government regulations at the federal, state, and local level. Failure to comply with existing regulations or the enactment of restrictive laws or regulations could impair the Company's operations. While the Company believes that its operations comply with applicable regulations, the Company has not sought or received interpretive rulings to that effect. Additionally, there can be no assurance that subsequent 14 laws, subsequent changes in present laws or interpretations of such laws will not adversely affect the Company's operations. The Company employs radiologic technologists in its operations, each of whom must be licensed by the appropriate state authority. Many states have a requirement known as a Certificate of Need ("CON") requirement that impedes a company's ability to operate without governmental approval. To the extent that medical facilities rely on Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement for the services rendered by the Company to their patients, changes in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement regulations and policies affect the Company. During the past several years, there has been increasing pressure from federal and state regulatory and legislative bodies to prevent physicians from referring patients to diagnostic imaging facilities in which they have an ownership interest. Many prominent physicians, legislators, medical ethicists, and others feel that ownership of imaging facilities can impair a physician's judgment about the need for a diagnostic test. Studies have shown that physicians who have ownership interests in imaging facilities tend to refer more patients for diagnostic testing than physicians who have no ownership interest. The above-described regulations and dynamics may adversely affect the revenue per scan obtained by the Company as well as the number of scans performed. On the federal level, a physician self-referral bill passed Congress and was signed into law by President Clinton in 1993. The self-referral law bans physicians from referring Medicare patients to imaging and almost any other type of diagnostic or therapeutic outpatient medical facility in which they have ownership or financial interests, effective January 1, 1995. Many states, including Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, New York, and New Jersey, have passed laws regarding physician self referral. Some simply require disclosure of ownership, while others restrict physicians from referring to facilities in which they have any ownership interest. The legislature of the State of Florida enacted the Patient Self-Referral Act of 1992, effective April 8, 1992 (the "Florida SRA"). Such act prohibits physician self-referral to health care entities in which such physicians have financial interests, effective October 1, 1994. Management believes these legislative and regulatory actions have had no material adverse effect upon the Company's operations to date. However, the Florida SRA also imposes a fee cap, effective July 1, 1992, limiting the technical and professional fees of all providers of "clinical laboratory services, physical therapy services, comprehensive rehabilitative services, diagnostic imaging services, and radiation therapy services" to no more than 115% of the Medicare limiting charge for non-participating physicians. The statute specifically excludes hospitals and physician group practices from the fee cap provision and does not apply to patients eligible for Medicaid or Medicare reimbursement. Several lawsuits have been filed by various providers against the State of Florida in both federal and state court alleging, among other things, that the fee cap provision violates the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution and seeking to enjoin the State of Florida from enforcing the fee cap provision. In July 1992, the United States District Court for Northern District of Florida granted a permanent injunction in a case entitled Panama City Medical Center, Ltd., et. al vs. Robert B. Williams, et. al (File No. 92-40198-WS). See "Legal Proceedings." The ultrasound services provided by the Company are related specifically to urology. Approximately 80% of the Company's patients are covered by Medicare. Therefore, changes in Medicare reimbursement rules and regulations may have a significant impact on the profitability of the Company's ultrasound operations. Reimbursement rates for procedures are set annually. The 1996 reimbursement rates for the procedures primarily performed by the Company were increased from between 1.7% to 2.1% over 1995's reimbursement rates. 15 Exposure to Tort Liability in Medical Industry The Company operates medical equipment utilized to perform procedures on or diagnose disease in patients. The Company is exposed to tort liability in the event of harm to patients due to the negligence of the Company, its agents, and employees. The Company currently maintains professional liability insurance coverage in the amount of $1,000,000. The Company also maintains an umbrella policy covering, among other things, workers' compensation, general, and automobile liability in an amount of $9,000,000 in coverage. Although the Company has never had a liability claim filed against it, any claims could have a material adverse effect on the Company. In addition, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to maintain such insurance coverage in the future. The Company acts as general partner of a limited partnership controlled by the Company that directly owns, controls and operates the Company's medical facilities. As such, the Company is exposed to general liability for torts committed by such partnership and its agents and employees and for contracts entered into by those partnerships. In addition, to the extent that the Company is a general partner of limited partnerships that offer and sell limited partner interests, the Company is exposed to liability under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and various state securities laws. Dilution Holders of Common Stock of the Company will suffer dilution in the event that any of the Company's outstanding convertible securities, including outstanding shares of Class B Preferred Stock and Class C Preferred Stock are converted by the holders thereof. Additional dilution may result in the event of the exercise of warrants and options, including options granted pursuant to the Company's stock option and purchase plans, and employment agreements. Dividends The Company has not paid any dividends on any of its outstanding securities to date and, other than as set forth herein, does not anticipate paying any dividends on its securities in the foreseeable future. As of September 30, 1996, accrued and unpaid dividends on all shares of Preferred Stock totalled $17,452. The Company currently intends to retain all working capital and earnings, if any, to finance the operations of its businesses and to expand its businesses. Dividends on the Class C Preferred Stock will be payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, to the extent permissible under the Florida Business Corporation Act, to the holders of the Class C Preferred Stock in cash or, at the option of the Company as determined by the Board of Directors, in shares of Common Stock. Dividends may be paid in shares of Common Stock only if such shares have been registered under the Securities Act; however, the Dividend Shares will still be restricted from public sale for 12 months from September 6, 1996, without the prior written consent of Commonwealth. The Company's future cash flow and legal capital may be insufficient to enable the Company to pay dividends. See "Description of Securities--Preferred Stock." Future Issuances of Stock by the Company; Potential Anti-Takeover Effect The Company has authorized capital stock of 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.007 par value per share and 500,000 shares of preferred stock, $10.00 par value per share (the "Preferred Stock"). As of September 30, 1996, there were 11,466,312 shares of Common Stock and 7,500 shares of Class B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, 240,000 shares of Class C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and an additional 11,950 shares of Class C Preferred Stock are issuable upon the conversion of the Convertible Notes. On June 28, 1996, 160,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock were converted into 3,915,570 shares of Common Stock and on August 21, 1996, a portion 16 of the principal of the 10% Notes was converted into 350,000 shares of Common Stock. Although, other than as disclosed herein, there are no present plans, agreements or undertakings with respect to the Company's issuance of any shares of stock or related convertible securities, the issuance of any of such securities by the Company could have anti-takeover effects insofar as such securities could be used as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Such issuance could also dilute the public ownership of the Company. Inasmuch as the Company may, in the future, issue authorized shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock without prior stockholder approval, there may be substantial dilution to the interests of the Company's stockholders. However, given that the Company is authorized to issue more stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so. In addition, a stockholder's pro rata ownership interest in the Company may be reduced to the extent of the issuance and/or exercise of any options or warrants relating to the Common Stock or Preferred Stock. The issuance of additional shares of Common Stock may have the effect of rendering more difficult or discouraging an acquisition or change in control of the Company. See "Description of Securities." The Company proposes to increase its authorized number of shares of Common Stock to 50,000,000 and its number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock to 2,000,000 and expects to solicit shareholder approval of the same shortly. Officers and directors of the Company have agreed to vote an aggregate of 6,828,914 shares of Common Stock in favor of such proposal. Pending the solicitation of the necessary stockholder approval and as a condition to the first closing of the Class C Offering, securityholders, including officers and directors of the Company and ILINK, owning options to purchase an aggregate of 4,153,501 shares of Common Stock have agreed not to exercise any options owned by them unless and until the shareholders of the Company approve an increase in authorized capital stock. Future Sales of Stock by Stockholders As of September 30, 1996, 10,053,795 shares of Common Stock, all of the shares of Class B Preferred Stock, and all of the shares of Class C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding were "restricted securities" as that term is defined under the Securities Act and in the future may only be sold in compliance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or pursuant to an effective registration statement. Rule 144 provides, in essence, that a person (including a group of persons whose shares are aggregated) who has satisfied a two-year holding period for such restricted securities may sell within any three-month period, under certain circumstances, an amount of restricted securities which does not exceed the greater of 1% of that class of the Company's outstanding securities or the average weekly trading volume of that class of securities during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale. In addition, pursuant to Rule 144, persons who are not affiliated with the Company and who have held their restricted securities for at least three years are not subject to the quantity limitations or the manner of sale restrictions of the rule. As of September 30, 1996, substantially all of the Company's restricted securities are available for resale pursuant to Rule 144 or have registration rights and are included in the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part, which will allow such shares to be freely resold into the market. Certain of the officers, directors and affiliates of the Company, ILINK, Benchmark and Commonwealth have agreed with Commonwealth to lock up their shares of Common Stock for twelve months from August 21, 1996. These lock-up agreements relate to 5,048,891 shares (excluding shares issuable upon exercise of currently exercisable options). Commonwealth intends to allow certain 10% Noteholders who used their note repayments to purchase Class C Preferred Stock in the Class C Offering to sell a sufficient amount of Shares or Conversion Shares following registration thereof as will equal in value the principal amount of the note repayments used to purchase such Class C Preferred Stock. In the event that the shares of Common Stock which are not currently salable become salable by means of registration, eligibility for sale under Rule 144 or otherwise and the holders of such securities elect to sell such securities in the public market, there is likely to be a negative effect on 17 the market price of the Company's securities and on the ability of the Company to obtain additional equity financing. In addition, to the extent that such securities enter the market, the value of the Company's securities in the over- the counter market may be reduced. No predictions can be made as to the effect, if any, that sales of such securities (or the availability of such securities for sale) will have on the market price of any of such securities which may prevail from time to time. Nevertheless, the foregoing could adversely affect such prevailing market prices. Authorization of Preferred Stock The Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as further amended (the "Articles of Incorporation") authorize the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of Preferred Stock with such rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. Accordingly, the Board of Directors may, without stockholder approval, issue shares of Preferred Stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which are senior to the Shares or which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock. In addition, the issuance of additional shares of Preferred Stock may have the effect of rendering more difficult, or discouraging, an acquisition of the Company or changes in control of the Company. Although, other than as set forth herein, the Company does not currently intend to issue any additional shares of Preferred Stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future. See "Risk Factors--Future Issuances of Stock by the Company; Potential Anti-Takeover Effect," "Risk Factors--Certain Provisions of Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws" and "Description of Securities--Preferred Stock." The Company intends to increase its authorized number of shares of Common Stock to at least 50,000,000 shares and its authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock to at least 2,000,000 shares. The Company expects to solicit the necessary shareholder approval to effect such increases as soon as practicable. Officers and directors of the Company representing 6,828,914 shares (59.5%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock have agreed to vote or direct the vote for the approval of such increases. Immediately upon amendment of the Company's Articles of Incorporation and designation of additional shares of Class C Preferred Stock, the Convertible Notes will automatically convert to 11,950 shares of Class C Preferred Stock. Until such shareholders' meeting or a written consent to action can be effected in accordance with applicable law, the Company is without sufficient number of authorized shares to accommodate the adjustment of the Class C Preferred Stock Conversion Price below $2.06 so that no adjustment will be effected unless and until the Company's authorized shares is increased. See "Description of Securities." Continued Nasdaq Listing The Common Stock commenced quotation on Nasdaq on July 7, 1989, was subsequently delisted and then resumed listing on March 23, 1993 under the symbol "MDCR." The "MDCR" symbol was changed to "ILNK" effective March 8, 1996. While the Common Stock is currently listed for quotation on Nasdaq, there can be no assurance given that the Company will be able to continue to satisfy the requirements for maintaining quotation on Nasdaq or that such quotation will otherwise continue. If, for any reason, the Common Stock becomes ineligible for continued listing and quotation, holders of the Company's securities may have difficulty selling their securities should they desire to do so. Under the rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), in order to qualify for continued listing on Nasdaq, a company must have, among other things, $2,000,000 in total assets, $1,000,000 in total capital and surplus, $1,000,000 in market value of public float and a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. Although the Company was able initially to satisfy the requirements for listing of its securities on Nasdaq, the Company may be unable to continue to satisfy the requirements for maintaining quotation of its securities thereon, and trading, if any, in the 18 Company's securities would be conducted in the over-the-counter market in what are commonly referred to as the "pink sheets" of the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. or on the NASD OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. As a result, an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of or to obtain accurate quotations as to the price of such securities. Furthermore, Nasdaq has proposed more stringent continued maintenance criteria and there can be no assurance as to whether such proposal will be adopted or the timing thereof. "Penny Stock" Regulations The Commission has adopted regulations which define a "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities, and information on the limited market in penny stocks. In addition, the broker-dealer must obtain a written acknowledgement from the customer that such disclosure information was provided and must retain such acknowledgement for at least three years. Further, monthly statements must be sent to the customer disclosing current price information for the penny stock held in the account. While many Nasdaq-listed securities would otherwise be covered by the definition of penny stock, transactions in a Nasdaq-listed security would be exempt from all but the sole marketmaker provision for: (i) issuers who have $2,000,000 in tangible assets ($6,000,000 if the issuer has not been in continuous operation for three years); (ii) transactions in which the customer is an institutional accredited investor; and (iii) transactions that are not recommended by the broker-dealer. In addition, transactions in a Nasdaq-listed security directly with a Nasdaq marketmaker for such securities would be subject only to the disclosure with respect to commissions to be paid to the broker- dealer and the registered representative. The foregoing rules may materially adversely affect the liquidity for the market of the Company's securities. Such rules may also affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company's securities and may impede the ability of holders of the Company's securities to sell such securities in the secondary market. Certain Provisions of Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws As previously noted, pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation, the Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 500,000 shares of Preferred Stock without action by the stockholders in one or more series having such preferences, rights and other provisions as the Board of Directors may designate in providing for the issuance of such series. In addition, the Company intends to seek shareholder approval of the amendment of the Company's Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized Preferred Stock to at least 2,000,000 shares. The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws contain provisions which may discourage certain transactions which involve an actual or threatened change in control of the Company. See "Description of Securities--Anti-Takeover Measures." Classification of the Board of Directors The Board of Directors of the Company is classified into three (3) classes. Members of each class serve for staggered three (3) year terms, with members of one class coming up for election each year. The classification of the Board of Directors may make it difficult for shareholders to effect a change in management. See "Management." Voting Control Four M International, Inc. (previously defined as "Four M") owns 3,915,570 shares of Common Stock or approximately 34% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company. Four M has granted options to sell part or all of its holding in the Company to affiliates of ILINK and associated persons and/or customers of Commonwealth. Furthermore, ILINK, Ltd. owns an aggregate of 2,913,344 shares 19 of Common Stock or approximately 25% of the outstanding voting securities. G Net Enterprises, Inc. is the general partner of ILINK, Ltd. of which Clay Wilkes, an officer and director of the Company, is the sole shareholder. In addition, the officers and directors of the Company own an aggregate of 4,879,390 shares or approximately 35% of the outstanding voting securities. Therefore, by virtue of their ownership of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Stock, the officers and directors of the Company have the ability to substantially influence the election of directors and, consequently, influence the Company's business and affairs. See "Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management." Lack of Patent Protection The Company does not currently hold any patents, although ILINK has filed a patent application for its new product, Fax4Less, sometimes referred to as Fax- Link. It has also filed a patent application for another technology that allows for the transmission of voice communications over the Internet ("Phone4Less"). Fax4Less and Phone4Less are patent pending at this time. However, the Company is not in the position to commercialize Phone4Less technology at this time. To the extent any technology included in such products is patentable, if any, there can be no assurance that any patent will in fact be issued or that such patents will be effective to protect the Company's products from duplication by other developers. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to afford the expense of any litigation that may be necessary to enforce its right under any patent. New Products New products such as Fax4Less are subject to substantial risks, including high costs of introduction, market acceptance and duplication by other developers. However, Fax4Less will compete with other more traditional means of text transmission such as facsimile over traditional telephone lines, overnight delivery services and e-mail. Numerous extremely well-capitalized businesses will be competing with Fax4Less. See "Risk Factors--ILINK Business Competition" and "Business of ILINK." Contemplated Issuances of Stock and Options to Employees and Consultants The Company recently approved the grant to Clay Wilkes, Chairman of the Board, and Alex Radulovic, Vice President of Technology of ILINK, of options to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock, the vesting of which would occur on June 30, 2001; provided that the vesting shall accelerate in increments of 25% in the event that the average closing bid price per share of Common Stock for five (5) consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $10, $15, $20 and $25, respectively, upon the graduated achievement of Common Stock prices of $10, $15, $20 and $25, and exercisable to the extent vested commencing June 30, 1997 at a price of $7 per share. The options lapse on June 30, 2002. Previously, the Company agreed to issue options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock to John Edwards, President of the Company, and in consideration of Mr. Edwards' salary reduction from $175,000 to $96,000, the Company has agreed to grant to Mr. Edwards additional options to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $4.875. In addition, the Company has agreed to issue options to purchase 64,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.25 to Joseph Cohen, Commonwealth's designee as Director of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of their employment agreements with ILINK, Karl S. Ryser, Treasurer of the Company, and William Flury, Vice President, Sales and Marketing of ILINK, are each entitled to receive options to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to approval of the Board of Directors. The Company has also agreed to issue warrants to purchase 25,000 and 5,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.875 and $2.50, respectively, to Mr. Edwards and William Flury, Vice President of Sales and Marketing of ILINK, in connection with the loan by such persons to ILINK of $125,000 and $100,000, 20 respectively, in August 1996. See "Management," "Executive Compensation-- Employment Agreements," and "Certain Transactions." Limited Authorized Capital The number of shares of the Company's unissued and unreserved shares of Common Stock is negligible. Management intends to solicit the shareholder approval necessary to increase the number of the Company's authorized shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful. Failure to increase the Company's authorized capital could significantly impair the Company's ability to raise additional capital and could limit the effect of the Conversion Price adjustment or reset provisions of the Class C Preferred Stock insofar as the Company may not have sufficient shares of available Common Stock issuable upon conversion as a result of a reduction in the Conversion Price. In addition, certain officers and directors will be unable to exercise options or receive any value therefrom. Dilutive Impact of Outstanding Options, Warrants and Convertible Securities The holders of outstanding options, warrants and convertible securities have the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of the Common Stock, if any, without assuming the risk of ownership, with a resulting dilution in the interest of other shareholders. The Company may find it more difficult to raise additional equity capital if it should be needed for the business of the Company while such options and warrants are outstanding. At any time at which the holders thereof might be expected to exercise them, the Company would probably be able to obtain additional capital on terms more favorable than those provided by such options and warrants. The holders of such options and warrants have the right to require registration under the Securities Act of the shares of Common Stock that are issuable upon exercise of such options and warrants and have certain demand and/or "piggy-back" registration rights. The cost to the Company of effecting any such registration may be substantial. Restrictions on Commonwealth Market-Making Activities Commonwealth may be precluded in accordance with the Exchange Act from engaging in market making activities for up to nine days prior to and during the period in which it is engaged in the exercise of or sale of their warrants. As a result, Commonwealth may be unable to continue to provide a market for the Company's Common Stock. Current Prospectus Requirement; Blue Sky Restrictions on Exercise Options and Warrants The holder or holders of the JW Charles Warrants and/or the Commonwealth Warrants and/or the Cook Option and/or the E&M Warrants and/or the Mandarino Warrants will have the right to sell or exercise such warrants only if a current prospectus relating to such securities and/or the shares underlying such securities is then in effect and only if such securities are qualified for sale or exempt under applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws of the states in which the holder or holders of such Warrants reside. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to keep this Prospectus or any prospectus covering any such securities current, although the Company will use its best efforts to do so. Also, certain exemptions in the blue sky laws of certain states may permit the holders of such Warrants to transfer such Warrants or holders thereof may move to states in which the shares underlying such Warrants are not registered or qualified during the period such Warrants are exercisable. The Company may decide not to seek or may be unable to obtain qualification of the issuance of such Common Stock in all of the states in which the ultimate holders of the JW Charles Warrants, the Commonwealth Warrants, the Cook Options, the E&M Warrants or the Mandarino Warrants reside. In such event, the JW Charles Warrants, the Commonwealth 21 Warrants, the Cook Option, the E&M Warrants and/or the Mandarino Warrants may expire and have no value if they cannot be exercised. THE COMPANY Medcross, Inc. (previously defined as the "Company") was incorporated in Florida on April 21, 1983. On November 30, 1990, the Company closed on its limited partnership offering of Medcross Imaging, Ltd. ("Medcross Imaging"). Medcross Imaging was formed for the purpose of purchasing a Philips T-5 MRI mounted in a mobile van to provide services to health care facilities on the southwest coast of Florida and commenced operations in February 1991. During May and June 1992, in a series of individual transactions, the Company acquired an additional 26.75% ownership interest in Medcross Imaging. Prior to the acquisitions, the Company had ownership interests in Medcross Imaging of 41.5%, 80.75%, and 81.75%, respectively. In June 1993, the Company purchased Waters Edge Scanning Associates, Ltd. renamed "Tampa MRI" after the acquisition. In October 1994, the Company closed on an acquisition of a 75% ownership interest in Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay (UUSTB) from Urology Ultrasound, Inc. Prior to the acquisition, the Company owned the other 25% ownership interest in UUSTB. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. UUSTB was organized on September 9, 1987 and is in the business of providing mobile ultrasound services to urological patients in west central Florida. The Company immediately transferred all assets and liabilities of the partnership to Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, formed for the purpose of this acquisition. Prior to the acquisition, the Company recorded its share of income and loss on its 25% ownership interest in UUSTB using the equity method. On May 1, 1995, the Company transferred all of the assets and liabilities of Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay, Inc. to Tampa MRI. On February 23, 1996, the Company closed its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of I-Link Worldwide, Inc., a Utah corporation (previously defined as "ILINK") from ILINK, Ltd., a Utah limited partnership, in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Prior to the acquisition, the assets and liabilities of ILINK, Ltd. were transferred to ILINK (which had no prior activity) at their historical cost. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Pursuant to the terms of the ILINK Purchase Agreement, 1,400,000 of the 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company were issued upon closing of the ILINK Acquisition and 2,600,000 of such shares of Common Stock were issued and placed in escrow. Subsequently, 80,046 shares were released from escrow. An additional 1,519,954 were to be and have been released upon the receipt of the Company of at least $4 million in proceeds from a debt or equity offering. As a result of the Class C Offering, such shares were released and the Company recorded additional intangible assets in the amount of $9.8 million. A substantial portion of the intangible assets are being amortized over the 24-month period commencing February 1996 and additional amortization expense of $576,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 has been recorded. One million shares remain in escrow and will be released over a one-year period upon certain conditions being met, including, without limitation, an increase in the number of subscribers who use ILINK's services and certain revenue targets. See "Risk Factors--Negative Effect of Amortization Expense." 22 USE OF PROCEEDS The Securities subject hereto have been previously issued to or are issuable to the Selling Securityholders and are being offered for sale by the Selling Securityholders. Consequently, the Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sales of the JW Charles Shares, the Shares, the Conversion Shares, the Commonwealth Shares, the Babcock Shares, the Cook Shares, the E&M Shares or the Mandarino Shares. The Company will receive the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the JW Charles Warrants, the Commonwealth Warrants, the Cook Options, the E&M Warrants and the Mandarino Warrants, but will not receive any of the proceeds from the resale of the Commonwealth Warrants, the E&M Warrants or the Mandarino Warrants or the sale by the holders of the JW Charles Shares, the Commonwealth Shares, the Cook Shares, the E&M Shares or the Mandarino Shares by Selling Securityholders. Proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the JW Charles Warrants, the Commonwealth Warrants, the Cook Option, the E&M Warrants and/or the Mandarino Warrants will be used for working capital purposes.

Results of Operations Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 1995 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 1994. The following table represents the net operating revenue and operating profit of the Company for each category of service offered. The net operating revenue and operating profits shown are net of intercompany transactions that were eliminated in consolidation.
Year Ended December 31, ----------------------- 1995 1994 --------- --------- Net Operating Revenue: Diagnostic Imaging....................... $2,486,708 $2,761,458 Sales and Services of Medical Equipment.. 337,889 504,015 Management and Other..................... 298,356 507,452 ---------- ---------- $3,122,953 $3,772,925 ========== ========== Operating Profit (Loss): Diagnostic Imaging....................... $ 322,314 $ 531,581 Sales and Services of Medical Equipment..

Diagnostic Imaging. Net operating revenue from diagnostic imaging services decreased 10% in 1995 as compared to 1994. MRI revenue of Tampa MRI accounted for $116,575 of the decrease. This decrease is mainly related to an 8.7% decrease in the average revenue per procedure. Tampa MRI has been successful in obtaining several managed care contracts. Managed care contracts provide for fixed charges per patient, generally lower than the charges obtainable for other patients, which should be offset by an increase in the number of procedures performed. MRI revenue of Medcross Imaging, Ltd. decreased $367,101 in 1995 as compared to 1994. This decrease was caused by a decrease in the number of MRI procedures performed of 17% and a decrease in the average revenue per procedure of 8%. The decrease in the average revenue per procedure of Medcross Imaging, Ltd. is mainly due to the decrease of the per procedure charges to the hospital clients pursuant to service contracts placed into effect on October 1, 1995. These contracts extended the service period to the hospitals from February 29, 1996 24 to February 28, 1997. While the charge per procedure is reduced, each hospital must meet specific monthly minimum quotas. The decrease in the number of patients treated by Medcross Imaging, Ltd. was caused by increased competition in the area. A mobile MRI company began providing service to a local hospital in the first quarter of 1995. The hospital closed in June 1995 and the mobile company opened an MRI center in St. Petersburg, Florida which creates direct competition for Medcross Imaging, Ltd. The two client hospitals to which Medcross Imaging, Ltd. provides service have recently obtained a large managed care contract. Management believes that this contract will increase the number of patients treated in 1996. The decreases of Tampa MRI and Medcross Imaging, Ltd. were offset by the inclusion of Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay, Inc. ("UR") which was acquired and included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company effective October 1, 1994. On May 1, 1995 the Company transferred its ultrasound operations to Tampa MRI. The inclusion of the ultrasound operations resulted in an increase in diagnostic imaging revenue of $208,926 in 1995 as compared to 1994. The revenue from these operations, as a wholly owned subsidiary and a joint venture combined, declined 12% in 1995 as compared to 1994. This decline was due to a decrease in the average revenue per patient of 24%. This decrease was due to the direct billing by the physicians, to whom services are provided, of the professional portion of the procedures performed. In addition, guidelines issued by the American Medical Association have bundled two of the procedures, whereby in the event procedures are performed at the same time, reimbursement for only one of those procedures is made. Management believes that this will not have a material adverse effect on the operations of the ultrasound services. Net operating revenue from diagnostic imaging services increased 8% in the fourth quarter of 1995 as compared to the third quarter of 1995. MRI revenue of Tampa MRI and the ultrasound operations increased 29% and 27%, respectively, while MRI revenue of Medcross Imaging, Ltd. decreased 16%. The increase in the revenue of Tampa MRI and ultrasound operations is due to an increase of the number of procedures performed of 31% and 20%, respectively. The decrease in net operating revenue of Medcross Imaging, Ltd. is due to a 26% decrease in average revenue per procedure, offset by a 14% increase in the number of procedures performed. This decrease in average revenue per procedure is due to the renegotiated contract prices to the hospitals that are serviced by Medcross Imaging, Ltd. The operating profits from diagnostic imaging services decreased 51% in 1995 as compared to 1994. This decrease included a decline in operating profit from MRI services of $376,759, slightly offset by the operating profit from ultrasound services of $38,334. Total operating expenses for diagnostic imaging services increased $63,675 in 1995 as compared to 1994. Operating expenses from ultrasound services increased $170,592 in 1995 as a result of only having three months of operations in 1994. This was offset by a decrease of $106,917 in total operating expenses for MRI services. The provision for doubtful accounts for diagnostic imaging services increased $61,202 in 1995 as compared to 1994. $16,211 of this increase was due to the inclusion of ultrasound services in 1995. The operating profits from diagnostic imaging services increased from $21,339 in the third quarter of 1995 to $63,845 in the fourth quarter of 1995. Tampa MRI and the ultrasound operations showed increased operating profits of $25,132 and $13,954, respectively, while Medcross Imaging, Ltd. showed decreased operating profit of $23,238. The net increase in operating profit for diagnostic imaging services was due to an increase in number of procedures performed in the fourth quarter of 1995, offset by a decrease in the average revenue per procedure. During the past several years, there has been increasing pressure from federal and state regulatory and legislative bodies to prevent physicians from referring patients to diagnostic imaging facilities in which they have an ownership interest. Legislation passed in the State of Florida, where all of the Company's diagnostic imaging services operate, placed a fee cap on diagnostic imaging services. An injunction has been obtained preventing the State of Florida from enforcing the fee cap. See "Legal Proceedings." In addition, approximately 80% of the patients treated by the Company's ultrasound operations are Medicare beneficiaries. Medicare has issued final regulations eliminating reimbursement 25 to independent physiological laboratories for the procedures the Company performs. This will have a significant effect on the Company's ultrasound operations. See "Business of Medcross--Regulatory and Legislative Developments." Foreign Sales and Service of Medical Equipment. The Company sells and services used and refurbished computerized tomography ("CT") scanners in the People's Republic of China through its own office in Beijing and a joint venture company, Shenyang Medcross Huamei Medical Equipment Company, Ltd. ("SMHME"), of which it owns 51%. During the last four months of 1994, the Beijing office completed the installation of two CT scanners, and SMHME completed the installation of one CT scanner. In the first quarter of 1995, the Company's Beijing office completed the installation of two additional CT scanners. On May 31, 1995, the Beijing office was closed and the responsibilities for the parts depot and the remaining inventory have been transferred to SMHME. Various issues have been raised by the purchasers in China regarding maintenance of scanners, parts depot, etc. The Company has received $125,000 in payments through December 31, 1995. However, the Company has elected to fully reserve for all amounts due to the Beijing office for the four scanners installed. This resulted in an expense of $126,910 in 1995 and $188,842 in 1994 and an allowance for doubtful accounts of $315,753 as of December 31, 1995. In June 1995, the Company wrote down one of the CT scanners in inventory to what management believes is fair market value. This resulted in $49,122 of additional cost of goods sold. The Company has decided to sell its Beijing operations, and has held discussions regarding the sale of the China operations. No assurance can be given regarding the outcome of such negotiations. Management and Other. Net operating revenue from management and other activities decreased by $209,096 in 1995 as compared to 1994. A significant portion of the decrease, $106,406 was related to the management contract with Bay Area Renal Stone Center ("BARSC"). This contract accounted for $133,881 in management fees in 1994 and $27,475 in management fees in 1995. In 1992 BARSC sold a 65% ownership interest in its operations to CORAM, a publicly-held corporation. In August 1994, upon renewal of the Company's management contract, its responsibilities were reduced to providing financial services. In 1995, BARSC sold the remaining 35% ownership interest in its operations to CORAM. In August 1995, the Company's management contract with BARSC was terminated. UUSTB, the unconsolidated subsidiary, accounted for $81,222 of the decrease in 1995. These management fees were included in the consolidation because this partnership was recorded on an equity basis. In 1995, any management fees collected from UR were eliminated in consolidation. The management contract with International Prostate Partners accounted for $32,100 of the decrease. The patient case load of International Prostate Partners and its wholly owned foreign subsidiary was insufficient to support its operating expenditures. Therefore, in 1994, the operation was closed down and the equipment stored pending FDA approval of the technology. This resulted in the reduction of the Company's management fee revenue. In August 1994, upon the sale of the Company's interest in International Prostate Partners, the management contract was terminated. The annual management fee revenue based upon contracts currently in effect is $245,160. The net operating loss for management and other activities increased $34,522 in 1995 to $644,986. This increased loss is related to the reduced revenue described above offset by a decrease in corporate overhead expenses of $174,574. Salaries and benefits decreased $141,417 and other operating expenses decreased $28,156 in 1995 as compared to 1994. The operating loss from management and other activities decreased $138,519 in the fourth quarter of 1995 as compared to the third quarter of 1995. This fourth quarter decrease is due to a decrease in salaries and benefits of $22,389, a decrease in other operating expenses of $129,359, offset by a decrease in net operating revenue of $11,675. Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 1995 included consulting expenses that are not expected to recur in 1996. Consolidated Operating Results. Net operating revenue of the Company decreased 17% in 1995 as compared to 1994. This was a result of decreased revenue of diagnostic imaging services, foreign operations, and management fee revenue. Cost of goods sold was entirely related to the sale and service 26 of CT equipment in China. Salaries and benefits decreased by $130,459 in 1995 as compared to 1994. This decrease was in the area of management and other ($141,417) offset by an increase in salaries and benefits for diagnostic imaging services of $10,492. The decrease in repairs and maintenance expenses and depreciation and amortization was mainly related to diagnostic imaging services. The provision for doubtful accounts increased $61,202 for diagnostic imaging services, offset by a decrease in the provision for doubtful accounts for foreign operations of $61,932. Other operating expenses decreased $132,379, of which $126,173 was due to the reduction in expenses of the foreign operations. Net operating profit of the Company in the fourth quarter of 1995 was $111. This is an increase of $162,251 over the operating loss of $162,140 in the third quarter of 1995. This increase is due to increase in the operating profit of diagnostic imaging and management and other activities. Overall, net operating revenue increased 5% and total operating expenses decreased 17% in the fourth quarter of 1995 as compared to the third quarter of 1995. Management expects the increase in net operating revenue and the decrease in operating expenses to continue in the first quarter of 1996. The decrease in interest expense in 1995 as compared to 1994 was due to the reduction of the long-term debt. The decline in interest income was related to reduced cash balances. The difference between the decrease from unconsolidated subsidiaries in 1995 and the loss from unconsolidated subsidiaries in 1994 is primarily attributable to a $71,250 write down in 1994 of the Company's cost basis investment in International Prostate Partners, which ceased operations in 1994, and to the recognition of a gain in 1995 from the sale of the Company's ownership interest in the same partnership. Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995 The following table represents the net operating revenue and operating profit (loss) of the Company for each category of service offered. The historical results of operations for the Company include the acquired operations of ILINK from February 13, 1996 through September 30, 1996. The net operating revenue and operating profit (loss) shown are net of intercompany transactions that were eliminated in consolidation.

Diagnostic Imaging. Net operating revenue from diagnostic imaging services decreased by 16.7% and 21.5% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, as compared 27 to the same periods in 1995. Medcross Imaging, Ltd. accounted for $63,901 and $324,684 of the decrease for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the same periods in 1995. This decrease in revenue is primarily due to the decrease in the average revenue per patient, which was caused by a decrease in the per patient charge to the hospital clients pursuant to service contracts placed into effect on October 1, 1995. These contracts extended the service period to the hospitals from February 29, 1996 to February 28, 1997. While the charge per procedure is reduced, each hospital must meet specific monthly minimum quotas. The decrease in average revenue per patient was offset by an increase of 15% in the number of procedures performed for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to the same quarter in 1995. The number of procedures performed decreased 2% for the nine months ending September 30, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995. MRI revenue of Tampa MRI decreased $39,813 and $60,285 for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1996, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1995. This decrease is due to a decrease in the average revenue per patient of approximately 25%, offset by increases in the number of procedures performed of 11.2% for the three-month period ending September 30, 1996 and 21.3% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, compared to the same periods in the prior year. Tampa MRI has obtained and will continue its efforts to obtain managed care contracts. The participation in the managed care environment has caused a decrease in the charges per procedure, however, these decreases have been partially offset by increases in the number of procedures performed. The revenue of the ultrasound operations increased 29% for the three-month period ended September 30, 1996 and decreased 10.8% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the same periods in 1995. This is mainly due to an increase in the number of procedures performed of 8.7% for the third quarter of 1996 and a decrease in the number of procedures performed of 7.1% for the nine months ending September 30, 1996, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1995. Overall, revenue from diagnostic imaging services has decreased due to a decrease in average revenue per procedure of 25% and 20.7% for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1996 as compared to the corresponding periods of 1995. This decrease has been partially offset by an increase in the number of procedures performed of 11.1% for the three months and 1% for the nine months ending September 30, 1996, as compared to the same periods of 1995. The operating profit from diagnostic imaging services decreased by $52,992 for the three-month period ending September 30, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995. The decrease was caused by a decline in operating profit from Medcross Imaging, Ltd. of $53,046, a decrease in operating profit from Tampa MRI's MRI operations of $19,472, offset by an increase in the operating profit of the ultrasound operations of $19,526, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year. The operating profit from diagnostic imaging services decreased $197,189 for the nine-month period ending September 30, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995. The decrease was caused by a decline in operating profit from Medcross Imaging, Ltd. of $236,011, offset by increases in operating profit from Tampa MRI's MRI operations of $34,364, and an increase in the operating profit of the Tampa MRI's ultrasound operations of $2,458, compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. The decline in the diagnostic imaging operating profit for the three-month and nine-month periods ending September 30, 1996 was a result of the decrease in diagnostic imaging revenue, offset by a decrease in total operating expenses for diagnostic imaging of $36,248 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and $213,823 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. The Company is considering the sale of its diagnostic imaging business in light of the Company's focus on the business of ILINK; however, no final decision has been made with respect to any such sale and there can be no assurance that such business will be sold. During the past several years, there has been increasing pressure from federal and state regulatory and legislative bodies to prevent physicians from referring patients to diagnostic imaging facilities in which they have an ownership interest. Legislation passed in the State of Florida, where all of the Company's diagnostic imaging services operate, placed a fee cap on diagnostic imaging services. An 28 injunction has been obtained preventing the State of Florida from enforcing the fee cap. See "Legal Proceedings." Sales and Service of Medical Equipment. The Company sells and services used and refurbished computerized tomography (CT) scanners in the People's Republic of China through a joint venture company, Shenyang Medcross Huamei Medical Equipment Company, Ltd. (SMHME), of which it owns 51%. In the first quarter 1995, the Company's Beijing office, which was closed on May 31, 1995, completed the installation of two CT scanners. The responsibilities for the parts depot and the inventory of the Company's Beijing office were transferred to SMHME. The Company has elected to fully reserve for all amounts due from the sale of the CT scanners sold by its Beijing office. This resulted in an expense of $281,438 in the first quarter of 1995 and an allowance for doubtful accounts of $315,753 as of September 30, 1996. The Company has held discussions regarding the sale of its Beijing operations. No assurance can be given regarding the outcome of such discussions. Management and Other. Net operating revenue from management and other activities decreased by $11,675 in the third quarter of 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 and by $53,196 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. The decrease was primarily related to the management contracts with Bay Area Renal Stone Center ("BARSC"). The BARSC contract accounted for $11,775 and $27,475 in management fees for the three and nine month periods in 1995, respectively, and no management fees in 1996. The net operating loss from management and other activities decreased 33% and 34% in the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1995. Corporate overhead expenses decreased $87,082 and $242,902 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. Telecommunications Network and Related Services - ILINK. The operating revenue of network and related services from ILINK was $64,297 for the third quarter of 1996 and $136,661 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The net operating loss from network and related services was $2,245,133 and $6,174,533 for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1996. The expenses incurred by ILINK during the third quarter were primarily attributable to the build-out of the ILINK network. This network is utilized in delivering ILINK's products and services. The loss was primarily due to the write-off of research and development costs purchased of $2,034,103 in the first quarter of 1996 and the additional amortization of intangibles of $1,070,257 and $1,594,666 for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1996, respectively. These intangible assets were recorded pursuant to the purchase of the common stock of ILINK by the Company. Excluding the purchased research and development costs written-off and the additional amortization, the operating loss of network and related services was $1,174,876 and $2,545,764 for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1996, respectively. ILINK expenditures to date have been primarily related to the development of its communication product, Fax4Less, which is to be released in the near future. These expenditures include software research and development, network equipment, network buildout, operational facilities and infrastructure. Expenditures also include the formation of a sales and marketing team, personnel and plan. Consolidated Operating Results. Net operating revenue of the Company decreased 6% in the third quarter of 1996 compared to the same quarter of 1995 and 26.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was mainly due to the sale of CT scanners in China during the first quarter of 1995 and none in 1996 and the decrease in the net operating revenue of diagnostic imaging services in 1996 as compared to 1995. Salaries and benefits increased $407,737 and $562,402 for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1996, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995. This increase was due to the inclusion of salaries and benefits of $410,432 and $783,346 from network and related services during the third quarter 1996 and the nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, which was offset by a decrease in salaries and benefits for diagnostic imaging, sales and service of medical equipment and management and other of $2,695 and 29 $220,944 during such periods. Depreciation and amortization increased $1,144,519 in the third quarter of 1996 compared to the third quarter of 1995 and increased $1,707,452 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1995 due to the inclusion of ILINK, which consists mostly of the amortization of goodwill, offset by a decrease from diagnostic imaging. The provision for doubtful accounts increased $48,224 in the third quarter of 1996 compared to third quarter of 1995 and decreased $184,558 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1995. This change is due to the collection, in the second quarter of 1995 of amounts previously written-off, and the write-off of the receivables due from the foreign operations in the first quarter of 1995, none of which occurred in 1996. Other operating expenses increased $117,883 in the third quarter of 1996 compared to the third quarter of 1995. This increase is due to the inclusion of $269,475 from network and related services, offset by a decrease of operating expenses of $134,893 from diagnostic imaging, sales and service of medical equipment, and management and other activities. In the nine months ended September 30, 1996, other operating expenses increased $633,235 compared to nine months ended September 30, 1995. This increase is due to the inclusion of operating expenses from network and related services of $953,793 offset by a decrease in operating expenses of $303,559 from diagnostic imaging, sales and service of medical equipment, and management and other activities. Liquidity and Capital Resources As a consequence of the ILINK Acquisition and concurrent and subsequent financings, most of the Company's balance sheet items at September 30, 1996 have significantly increased from their respective levels at September 30, 1995. Concurrent with the Company's acquisition of the securities of ILINK in February 1996, the Company issued an aggregate of $1 million in 10% Notes and received net proceeds of $845,000. The proceeds of such offering were used to pay operating expenses and certain other indebtedness of ILINK. In the second quarter of 1996, three loans evidenced by promissory notes, totalling $500,000, were made to the Company. The proceeds of these notes were used to pay operating expenses and certain outstanding indebtedness of ILINK. Warrants to purchase up to 150,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Company were issued in conjunction with these promissory notes. In September 1996, the Company closed an offering of 240,000 shares of its Class C Preferred Stock, the gross proceeds of which were $14.4 million. The net proceeds were earmarked for furthering operations of ILINK and will be used to repay short-term debt, to pay for software licensing fees and current payables, to fund network operations, to pay for marketing and advertising programs, to expand ILINK's network infrastructure and marketing, and for general working capital purposes. Simultaneous with the closing of the private placement of the Class C Preferred Stock, the Company issued $717,000 in the aggregate of 8% Convertible Promissory Notes, the proceeds of which will be used to further the operations of ILINK and which are due April 1, 1997. During the first quarter of 1995, the Company received advances totaling $218,000 from Mortgage Network International, payable on demand. One of the Company's directors has management control over Mortgage Network International. The advances were subsequently formalized by the Company issuing a Promissory Note bearing interest at 1% over prime rate of Southwest Bank of Texas, N.A. with a maturity of October 1, 1995. Subsequent to October 1, 1995, the Company and Mortgage Network International modified the note such that: (i) a principal payment in the amount of $88,000 is due and payable on December 31, 1996; (ii) interest thereon is payable monthly at a rate of 10.5%; and (iii) the remaining principal amount of $130,000 with interest thereon at the rate of 10.5% will be paid in 36 equal monthly payments of $4,225.32 beginning December 10, 1995. Working capital used by operations was $1,170,855 for the third quarter of 1996 as compared to working capital used by operations of $99,141 in the third quarter of 1995. The working capital used by operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $2,428,489, compared to working capital provided by operations of $74,071 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The working 30 capital position of the Company was $4,325,256 at September 30, 1996 and a deficit of $315,573 at December 31, 1995. Cash flow used by operating activities was $2,149,923 and $3,016,238 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to cash flow provided by operations of $543 and $156,525 for the same periods in 1995. Cash flow used by operating activities includes $1,958,255 and $2,765,408 attributable to the inclusion of ILINK in 1996. Investing activities during the nine-months ending September 30, 1996 related to the purchase of additional computer equipment for ILINK. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company reduced a portion of its long term debt and capital lease obligations by $70,836 and $408,941, respectively. The Company increased its capital lease obligations by $84,936 and $744,824 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 due to the purchase of computer equipment for ILINK. Notes payable to related parties were reduced by $625,500 and $693,333, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively. Notes payable to others were reduced by $703,000 and were increased by $557,425, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively. These reductions include indebtedness of ILINK. The inclusion of ILINK in the first quarter of 1996 increased capital lease obligations by $99,001, notes payable to related parties by $693,333, and notes payable to others of $104,575. As of September 30, 1996, the balance outstanding under the FUNB line of credit was $310,000. The Company was in violation of loan covenants regarding cash flow coverage ratios and past days sales in accounts receivable under the line of credit at September 30, 1996. However, FUNB has waived such non-compliance through December 31, 1996. The Company and FUNB reached an agreement pursuant to which the Company has agreed to secure alternative financing to repay amounts outstanding under the Line of Credit by June 30, 1996; however, the Company was unable to secure such financing, so that the Company is obligated to repay amounts outstanding under the Line of Credit in increments of $10,000 per month which commenced July 1, 1996, pursuant to the Company's agreement with FUNB, subject to negotiation of the terms of a balloon payment thereafter. During the remainder of 1996 and 1997, the Company plans to utilize its cash to fund the cash flow deficit related to the business of ILINK and to market Fax4Less and subsequent product offerings. The Company anticipates that cash requirements in these areas will be at increasingly higher levels than those experienced in the first three quarters of 1996 in preparation for initial market penetration of Fax4Less. To a large extent, the Company's ability to develop and market Fax4Less and other products and the timing thereof is dependent on the working capital and financing alternatives available to the Company. The Company expects to fund a significant portion of its equipment purchases through its arrangement with IBM Credit Corporation or financing arrangements with other institutions. The Company's working capital may be derived from several sources, such as cash from operating activities, public or private financings and asset sales. The Company may sell certain operating or other assets which are underutilized or deemed not to be a part of its ongoing operations. There are, however, no definitive arrangements for any such asset sales. The Company has outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 331,126 shares of Common Stock at $1.51 per share (see "Legal Proceedings"), 750,000 shares of Common Stock at $2.50 per share, 80,000 shares of Common Stock at $4.00 per share and 40,000 shares of Common Stock at $4.00 per share, subject to adjustment. In addition, the Company has outstanding options to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock at $1.00 per share. The closing sale price of the Company's Common Stock was $5.50 on December 10, 1996. There can be no assurance, however, that any of such warrants or options will be exercised. The Company believes that its anticipated short-term needs for working capital will be adequately met by the utilization of existing cash balances and available credit from its arrangement with IBM Credit Corporation or other institutions. However, the Company anticipates that additional funds will be necessary from public or private financing markets to successfully integrate and expand the business of ILINK and to discharge outstanding indebtedness, including the 8% Notes, the Mortgage Network International advances and the outstanding balance of the FUNB line of credit. The availability of such capital sources will depend on prevailing market conditions, interest rates, and financial position and results of operations of the Company. Therefore, there can be no assurance that such financing will be 31 available, that the Company will receive any proceeds from the exercise of outstanding warrants or that the Company will not be required to issue significant debt or equity securities in order to obtain additional financing. BUSINESS OF ILINK Overview ILINK is in the business of delivering business communications services via the emerging worldwide data communication networks (which includes the Internet). ILINK seeks to provide business communications solutions and enhanced capabilities to existing users of traditional telecommunications services, at substantial cost savings to its customers through utilization of the Internet and other existing data communications networks. ILINK's first business communications product will be marketed under the name "Fax4Less/TM/." Fax4Less The Core Product. Fax4Less is ILINK's core business communications product. It enables the user to utilize its existing fax machine to send a fax long distance to its ultimate destination, with a significant savings on long distance telephone charges. Transmission of the data takes place primarily via flat rate-based data lines such as those found on the Internet. No special fax equipment is required for the user, the person who receives the fax does not need to be a subscriber to Fax4Less and does not need any equipment other than a conventional fax machine to receive the fax. The fax arrives in the same form and in the same amount of time as a conventional fax transmission. The Company believes there are approximately 3.5 million fax machines in use in the United States today, the users of which incur long-distance charges of an average of $500 or more per machine, per month, 3.5 million fax machines that average $200 per month in long distance charges and 11 million fax machines that average $100 or less per month. Those users represent ILINK's initial target market. The service is expected to be available at or about the end of 1996. The Company believes Fax4Less significantly reduces costs immediately, while in many cases, providing better fax service. ILINK will pursue a multi-tiered infrastructure strategy. In some cases, ILINK will establish its own POP. In others, ILINK will partner with national and recognized telephone service resellers and Internet Service Providers ("ISPs"), incenting those organizations to provide the needed POPs consistent with ILINK service requirements. ILINK will establish its own POPs incrementally as business needs dictate. Installation of the POPs is a simple process involving pre-configured Fax Engines and communications lines. ILINK will use NOCs to monitor and maintain the ILINK network. Successful management of the network is critical to providing the highest level of support. The Fax Engine/TM/ represents ILINK's method-patent pending technology. This technology enables a conventional fax machine to communicate with another conventional fax machine via a data communication network such as the Internet, that utilizes the TCP/IP communications protocol. TCP/IP is the communications protocol that allows a computer to access and communicate over data communication networks such as the Internet. Fax Engines are located at ILINK POPs which cover strategic local dialing areas and provide the service infrastructure. Thus, cost for the transmission is the cost of a local call plus access to the worldwide inter-network similar to current computer access to the Internet. 32 By way of illustration, a subscriber in New York wishing to send a fax from New York to Houston dials a local Fax Engine located at ILINK's New York POP, enters a personal identification number and a destination number, and sends the fax just as he or she normally would via facsimile. The New York Fax Engine receives the fax, then routes it for delivery by area code and local exchange prefix to the appropriate Fax Engine in Houston via the ILINK network. A local phone call to the recipient fax machine is placed by the Houston Fax Engine, and the fax is delivered. A report of the transaction, including notification of receipt and/or any error handling, is sent to the New York subscriber. The Fax4Less Methodology. ILINK services are founded on method-patent pending technology that allows conventional fax machines to communicate via TCP/IP driven networks. This means that devices such as fax machines can be used as they currently are used, but users will no longer need to access communications lines that charge distance-based rates. A subscriber can transmit faxes via ILINK outside local dialing areas for the cost of a local call. This technology is housed in an ILINK "fax engine" (consisting of computer and networking hardware and proprietary software) at an ILINK POP. In addition to connecting devices, the engine provides self-diagnostic software designed to prevent service failure. And, it stores data and statistics on account information and system usage, allowing ILINK to immediately monitor capacity and enhance functionality. Technological Advantages. ILINK's fax transmission method provides several technological advantages over traditional point-to-point transmission. Some of these advantages are discussed below. It maximizes fax machine capabilities. In point-to-point fax ------------------------------------- methodology, fax transmission speed is limited by the sometimes weak long-distance connection as well as the slower of the baud rates between the two fax machines. The Fax Engine allows the transmitting fax machine to operate at its maximum transmission speed irrespective of the capabilities of the fax machine receiving the transmission. It allows for reporting and archiving. Not all fax machines have ------------------------------------- reporting capabilities. Since the Fax Engine handles the transmission, it creates and sends reports. Also, it can archive electronic copies of faxes. If desired, faxes can be retrieved to provide a history of a fax communication. It provides a base for other services. Once stored, the electronic ------------------------------------- data can be sent to a variety of types of (and number of) recipients. These services are described below. Market Opportunities The Company believes there are an estimated 3.5 million fax machines in use in the United States today, the users of which incur long-distance charges of an average of $500 or more per machine per month, 3.5 million fax machines that average $200 per month in long distance charges and 11 million fax machines that average $100 or less per month. Those users represent ILINK's initial target market. The long distance fax market has been estimated to be a $30 billion market in the United States alone. Opportunity to Provide Substantial Savings to Fax User. Utilization of Fax4Less will afford the opportunity to substantially reduce the long distance data transmission charges presently borne by the current user of traditional fax machines. Charges for the use of land-line networks traditionally utilized by fax machines are generally based on time and distance, often resulting in substantial long distance charges. In contrast, the charges associated with the new data communications networks (such as the Internet) are generally fixed. 33 Integration of Distinct Networks. There are currently a number of distinct information-carrying networks. Telephone, cable, wireless, and private and public networks are primary examples. Technologies supporting these networks will continue to integrate and evolve, allowing for previously unavailable opportunities for information distribution and access. The current business infrastructure presents impediments to the easy use of those networks. For example, in the fax industry there is a proliferation of fax or fax-like communication technologies, including fax machines, fax servers, fax software and e-mail. But these technologies are not well integrated; a party wishing to send information to others may have to format and send the data several different ways depending on the messaging equipment and systems available to the recipients. Opportunity to Deliver Enhanced Capabilities. The TCP/IP networking protocol and new transmission media such as are often associated with the Internet offer the possibility of substantially improved data communication. However, as highlighted above, telephones and fax machines are not TCP/IP- enabled. In order to take full advantage of the TCP/IP protocol and the Internet, users first must own or have access to a computer, and then need access to the Internet. Therefore, telephones and fax machines utilize traditional land-line telecommunications networks to transmit their voice and data. Charges for the use of those traditional networks are generally based on time and distance, often resulting in high long distance charges. In contrast, the charges associated with the new data communications networks (such as the Internet) are generally fixed. Market Response. Many of the responses seen in the marketplace to the opportunities discussed above are problematic in that they are often computer- oriented. Solutions typically require that a user (i) own a personal computer; (ii) have access to the Internet or an intranet, and (iii) have software compatible with software other users own. This significantly limits the market for the solution. Moreover, the responses often follow a product approach rather than a service approach. The product approach, usually modeled after the same approach followed by computer software vendors, imposes further requirements on the user. The approach requires version management, with users required to ensure that their software is current; it requires training, and re-training as procedures change; and gives a customer an interface-driven product that often has more capacity than a user needs. Target Markets Management of ILINK categorizes its domestic and international target facsimile user markets as follows: (i) small and medium sized businesses (less than 500 employees); (ii) large businesses (500 or more employees); and (iii) vertical markets. ILINK's primary target market consists of small and medium sized businesses. Small and Medium-Sized Businesses. Small and medium-sized businesses often have a difficult time obtaining and using technology. Typically, they lack the resources and/or expertise needed to obtain strategic advantage from state-of- the-art technology. Although ILINK defines small and medium-sized businesses as businesses with less than 500 employees, it is also important to note that departments or offices within larger businesses may also be placed in this category. Larger businesses can dedicate resources and/or funds to technology customization or even technology development. Smaller businesses often must accept off-the-shelf solutions designed for general use. Ultimately, per-fax costs are typically higher for smaller businesses. ILINK believes that its services are of significant strategic advantage to small businesses. Without having to adopt new technology or procedures, small and medium-sized businesses can immediately save money crucial to their bottom line. Large Businesses and High-End National Accounts. Large businesses and high-end national accounts (Fortune 2000) have significant fax traffic. These businesses may utilize equipment and technologies that counter long-distance costs. However, ILINK expects to profit from targeting such businesses. For example, the Company believes many of these businesses presently incur monthly land- 34 line long distance telephone charges of $800 to $1,200 per fax machine. Management believes those businesses could realize substantial savings from ILINK's services. Distribution Plan ILINK will target the following distribution methods: (i) direct sales utilizing independent sales agents; (ii) reselling through independent telephone company, or "Telco", resellers; (iii) reselling through Internet service providers ("ISPs"); (iv) reselling through cable/broadcasting companies; (v) reselling through direct sales organizations; (vi) direct sales to top national accounts and vertical market resellers ("VMRs"); (vii) COMDEX channels; (viii) leveraging OEM channels; and (ix) telemarketing/telesales. Direct Sales. The Company intends to utilize independent sales agents for direct sales of the Company's products on a commission basis. Reselling. It is ILINK's intention to offer telephone service resellers, cable and broadcast companies, ISPs and direct sales organizations significant partnering opportunities, but as of the date hereof no formal relationships have been established. By adding ILINK services to their current list of services, these potential partners enhance their competitive position in highly competitive and increasingly fragmented markets. With ILINK incentives, they also stand to increase their revenue and profit margin by positioning Fax4Less as a value-added competitive service. COMDEX Channels. Suppliers of telecommunications equipment, such as office equipment stores, computer dealers, and office supply superstores represent a direct interface to many targeted ILINK customers. For example, over 20% of fax machines are purchased from office equipment dealers or supply superstores. This represents a significant, well-established channel for ILINK. ILINK can also create a fax driver that allows a customer to both subscribe to ILINK's service and interface with existing fax software. This gives ILINK a "fax service in a box" capability and a shelf presence. OEM Channel. Market building with OEMs also represents significant opportunity to ILINK. Sales incentives will motivate OEMs to provide a highly targeted marketing channel for ILINK campaigns. Telemarketing. ILINK will utilize the telemarketing and telesales channel employed by many service providers. As in the example of current business communications providers, ILINK will directly contact customers in strategic markets, stressing the significant cost benefits associated with ILINK services while fielding sales inquiries derived from advertising. Technology Issues ILINK intends to establish POPs at strategic locations in the United States and, eventually, worldwide, to allow subscribers to access ILINK's network locally. ILINK's fax network will be a high-speed interconnected network of POPs. ILINK will create its network by leasing high-speed data lines and/or partnering with existing communications and Internet service entities that currently provide access to such lines. Capacity. Capacity, or lack thereof, is a frequently discussed topic with regard to data transmission via the Internet or worldwide data communications networks. "Slow service" resulting from inadequate capacity is one of the common complaints among Internet users. Capacity is a function of "bandwidth" on the network or the ability of the infrastructure to carry potentially large amounts of data to and from large numbers of users. Bandwidth is a perceived threat to communication via non-traditional transportation modes. ILINK's network is owned and managed by ILINK. In some cases, parts of the network may be contractually provided by other entities in the future. However, management believes ILINK has the ability to monitor and manage all of its network capacity. ILINK Fax Engines 35 monitor and store statistical capacity-related data. Transmission locations, transmission size, and transmission times are easily stored and accessed by the ILINK system. An ILINK Network Operations Center ("NOC") monitors data and can immediately detect when utilization levels are high. ILINK can then add capacity as needed. Because ILINK data is associated with a specific service (e.g., faxes) and is transmitted between (and encoded and decoded by) ILINK Fax Engines, the type and purpose of the data is well understood and "overhead" bandwidth needs are better addressed. Data segmentation gives the Fax Engines additional ability to maximize capacity. As a result ILINK uses bandwidth up to four times as efficiently as traditional fax systems do over the same medium. Security. Security is a major concern associated with Internet data transmission. ILINK controls the routing of data from one POP to another. Management believes that ILINK's system provides a measure of security that actually makes fax transmission more secure than using traditional facsimile methods. Competition The market for business communications services is extremely competitive. The Company believes that its ability to compete in ILINK's business successfully will depend upon a number of factors, including the pricing policies of competitors and suppliers; the capacity, reliability, availability and security of ILINK's network infrastructure; market presence and channel development; the timing of introductions of new products and services into the industry; ease of access to and navigation of the Internet or other such networks; the Company's ability in the future to support existing and emerging industry standards; the Company's ability to balance network demand with the fixed expenses associated with network capacity; and industry and general economic trends. While the Company believes there is currently no competitor in the North American market providing the same type of services in the same manner as the Company, there are many companies that offer business communications services, and therefore compete with the Company at some level. These range from large telecommunications companies and carriers such as AT&T, MCI, Sprint and LDDS, to smaller, regional resellers of telephone line access. These companies, as well as others, including manufacturers of hardware and software utilized in the business communications industry could in the future develop products and services that could compete with those of the Company on a more direct basis. These entities are far better capitalized than the Company and control significant market share in their respective industry segments. In addition, there may be other businesses that are attempting to introduce products similar to the Company's for the transmission of business information over the Internet. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully compete with these market participants. ILINK's Material Contractual Arrangements RSA. ILINK is a party to a master license agreement dated January 9, 1995 with RSA pursuant to which ILINK received a non-exclusive right to develop and distribute software products that incorporate RSA's data encryption security software. The agreement requires ILINK to pay $150,000 for the right to incorporate RSA's software in software products developed and distributed by ILINK and licensed to up to 150,000 persons. ILINK is also required to pay an annual maintenance fee of $5,000. The RSA agreement is important to ILINK's business because RSA's technology allows ILINK to provide substantial security protection to the users of Fax4Less. However, management believes that data encryption software is available from other vendors. The loss of RSA as a vendor would have a material adverse effect on the Company. AT&T. ILINK leases such number of data network communication lines from AT&T as ILINK's business demands. Those telephone lines represent part of the infrastructure over which ILINK conducts its business. Generally, the Company is billed a fixed amount per circuit, the connection between two 36 geographic locations. ILINK is committed to make minimum monthly payments of $75,000 for such lines over a 5-year period commencing March 1995. The arrangements with AT&T are presently being renegotiated, and it is not clear what the outcome of those negotiations will be. As of September 30, 1996, ILINK owes AT&T $370,000. Data network communication lines are available from other vendors. The loss of AT&T as a vendor could have a material adverse effect on the Company. IBM Credit Corporation. Prior to June 30, 1996 ILINK financed approximately $672,285 of equipment through IBM Credit Corporation. Under the terms of those credit arrangements, ILINK is obligated to pay approximately $60,000 every quarter. As of September 30, 1996, the amount due and payable to IBM Credit Corporation was $652,012. The Company is current under this Agreement. In September 1996, ILINK entered into a 24-month operating lease with IBM Credit Corporation relating to the financing of an aggregate of $3.5 million worth of equipment purchases. As a condition of that lease financing arrangement, ILINK obtained from Zions First National Bank a letter of credit totaling $1.575 million. These monies are held in an escrow account at Zions Bank, bear interest which is payable to the Company, and will be released when the lease expires. At the end of the lease, at ILINK's option, the equipment secured by the lease can be purchased at its fair market value. MFS Telecom, Inc. On June 21, 1996, ILINK entered into an Agreement for Terminal Facility Collocation Space with MFS Telecom, Inc. ("MFS"). Under the agreement, ILINK has the right, but is not obligated, to elect to occupy certain office and storage space and utilize MFS co-location services within commercial buildings at one or more leasehold sites held by MFS for the placement and operation of ILINK's telecommunications equipment and cabling. The agreement provides that MFS will make facilities in 21 major cities throughout the U.S. available to ILINK and expects to have an additional 30 sites in the U.S. and 7 international sites available to ILINK by year end. ILINK may elect to occupy any of such sites on a location-by-location basis. Although minimum occupancy terms, rentals and service charges vary somewhat from site to site and will be set forth in schedules to the agreement, rentals presently range from $500 to $1,000 per month and an $800 one-time initial charge per site and certain other additional charges for power, cross-connection fees and the like to be agreed upon at the time of election to occupy an MFS site. Management of ILINK believes that the MFS agreement provides ILINK with the opportunity to avail itself of strategic locations for POPs at competitive rates together with co- location and administrative services provided by MFS without the burden of long- term leases. BUSINESS OF MEDCROSS Radiological Diagnostic Services The majority of the Company's revenue in 1995 and 1994 was derived from owning and operating outpatient diagnostic imaging facilities in Florida. This revenue was primarily generated from two subsidiaries operating magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI") facilities. The Company is considering the sale of such business in light of the Company's focus on the business of ILINK; however, no final decision has been made with respect to any such sale and there can be no assurance that such business will be sold. On November 30, 1990, the Company closed on its limited partnership offering of Medcross Imaging, Ltd. ("Partnership"). The Partnership was formed for the purpose of purchasing a Philips T-5 MRI mounted in a mobile van to provide services to health care facilities on the southwest coast of Florida. The Partnership commenced operations in February 1991. During May and June 1992, in a series of individual transactions, the Company acquired an additional 26.75% ownership interest in Medcross Imaging, Ltd. Prior to the acquisitions, the Company had a 41.5% ownership interest. The Company increased its ownership of Medcross Imaging, Ltd. to 80.75% on October 1, 1993 and 81.75% on October 1, 1994. The Partnership significantly upgraded the MRI to state-of- the-art performance in 37 August 1993 at a cost of over $250,000. The upgraded machine can now produce better images in less time, thereby increasing the profit potential of the mobile unit. In June 1993, the Company purchased Waters Edge Scanning Associates, Ltd., renamed "Tampa MRI" after the acquisition. Serving the Tampa, Florida market, the acquisition of this facility was consistent with Medcross's "cluster approach of operating multiple MRIs in a single market or adjacent markets. After the acquisition was complete, this MRI was upgraded for higher efficiency and better images and the facility was remodeled. In October 1994, the Company closed on the acquisition of a 75% ownership interest in Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay ("UUSTB") from Urology Ultrasound, Inc. Prior to the acquisition, the Company owned the other 25% ownership interest in UUSTB. The total consideration given for the 75% partnership interest was $168,162. The purchase price was determined by arms length negotiation and was paid in cash at the closing. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. UUSTB was organized on September 9, 1987 and is in the business of providing mobile ultrasound services to urologic patients in west central Florida. When the Company acquired the 75% partnership interest in UUSTB from Urology Ultrasound, Inc., the partnership cased to exist. The Company immediately transferred all assets and liabilities of the partnership, except cash of $115,603, to Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, formed for the purpose of this acquisition. Prior to the acquisition, the Company recorded its share of income and loss on its 25% ownership interest in UUSTB using the equity method. On May 1, 1995, the Company transferred all of the assets and certain liabilities of Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay, Inc. to Tampa MRI. Regulatory and Legislative Developments. The Company's medical diagnostic businesses are subject to federal law and various federal and state regulations. While the Company believes that its operations comply with applicable regulations, the Company has not sought or received interpretive rulings to that effect. Additionally, there can be no assurance that subsequent laws, subsequent changes in present laws or interpretation of laws will not adversely affect the Company's operations. During the past several years, there has been increasing pressure from federal and state regulatory and legislative bodies to prevent physicians from referring patients to diagnostic imaging facilities in which they have an ownership interest. Many prominent physicians, legislators, medical ethicists, and others feel that ownership of imaging facilities can impair a physician's judgment about the need for a diagnostic test. Studies have shown that physicians who have an ownership interest in imaging facilities tend to refer more patients for diagnostic testing than physicians who have no ownership interest. On the federal level, a physician self-referral bill, introduced by Representative Fortney "Pete" Stark, passed Congress and was signed by President Clinton in 1993. The bill bans physicians from referring Medicare patients to imaging and almost any other type of diagnostic or therapeutic outpatient medical facility in which they have an ownership or financial interest, effective January 1, 1995. Many states, including Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, New York, and New Jersey, have passed laws regarding physician self-referral. Some simply require disclosure of ownership, while others restrict physicians from referring to facilities in which they have an ownership interest. The Florida legislature enacted the Patient Self-Referral Act of 1992, effective April 8, 1992. This Act prohibits physician self-referral to health care entities in which such physicians have a financial interest, effective October 1, 1994. Management believes these legislative and regulatory actions should have no material adverse effect upon the Company's existing operations. However, the Self-Referral Act also imposed a fee cap, effective July 1, 1992, limiting the technical and professional fees of all providers of "clinical laboratory services, physical therapy services, comprehensive rehabilitative services, diagnostic imaging services, and radiation therapy services" to no more than 115% of the Medicare limiting charge for non-participating physicians. The statute specifically excludes hospitals and physician 38 group practices from the fee cap provision and does not apply to patients eligible for Medicaid or Medicare reimbursement. Several lawsuits have been filed by various providers against the State of Florida in both federal and state court alleging, among other things, that the fee cap provision violates the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution and seeking to enjoin the state from enforcing the fee cap provision. In July 1992, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida granted a permanent injunction in a case entitled Panama City Medical Center, Ltd., et al. vs. Robert B. Williams, et al. (File No. 92-40198-WS). State of Florida appealed the decision granting the federal court injunction and, on February 15, 1994, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit reversed the decision of the lower court, finding that the fee cap provision did not violate the Equal Protection Clause and ruling that the entry of the injunction was in error. A motion for rehearing filed in the action has been denied and a petition has been filed seeking appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. On June 30, 1992, the Florida Circuit Court, Second Judicial Circuit, enjoined the State of Florida from enforcing the fee cap provision. The Company intervened as a party plaintiff in the state court action. An injunction has been obtained preventing the State of Florida from enforcing the fee cap. The State of Florida appealed the issuance of that injunction. However, the Florida Supreme Court has dismissed the appeal and the Circuit Court action has been dismissed. The ultrasound services provided by the Company are related specifically to urology. Approximately 80% of the Company's patients are covered by Medicare. Therefore, changes in Medicare reimbursement rules and regulations may have a significant impact on the profitability of the Company's ultrasound operations. Reimbursement rates for procedures are set annually. The 1996 reimbursement rates for the procedures primarily performed by the Company were increased from between 1.7% to 2.1% over 1995's reimbursement rates. On March 20, 1995, the Florida Medicare Part B carrier issued a Final Local Medical Review Policy regarding procedures that can be billed by independent physiological laboratories ("IPL"), the classification of the Company's ultrasound operations. These changes do not allow the IPL's to receive reimbursement from Medicare for the procedures performed by the Company after April 30, 1995. On May 1, 1995, the Company transferred its ultrasound operations to Tampa MRI. Health Care Industry Competition. It is common for hospitals, physicians, physician groups, and others in the health care field to form ventures to own and operate medical equipment. The Company is in competition with such groups. There are many companies offering general business consulting services. The companies that may compete with the Company in the future and that currently offer consulting services may be larger and have far greater financial resources than the Company. Also, if the cost of a particular medical device is reduced and the utilization by physicians increases, more hospitals will be able to afford to acquire their own equipment rather than receive service on a shared basis. Magnetic Resonance Imaging. MRI is a multi-billion dollar industry that has rapidly gained acceptance by physicians throughout the nation. MRI is the imaging modality of choice for soft tissue in the head, neck and spine. Over 3,000 MRI units have been installed in hospitals, outpatient diagnostic imaging centers, physicians' offices, and in mobile vehicles. Over 7 million MRI procedures were performed in the U.S. in 1991. At an estimated average of $900 per procedure, the MRI market in the United States generates over $6 billion annually. New uses for MRI are continually being developed. MRI is being used to a greater degree than ever before to scan shoulders, knees, ankles, elbows, breasts, and even the cardiac system. Technological improvements should soon enable MRI to be used effectively in imaging the chest and abdominal areas. The revenue from MRI services accounted for 70% and 71% of total revenue of the Company in 1995 and 1994, respectively. Contracts with two hospitals that accounted for 40% and 46% of the 39 revenue from MRI services in 1995 and 1994, respectively, were due to expire on February 28, 1996. On December 5, 1995, the Company renewed the contracts with the two hospitals effective October 1, 1995. The agreements are substantially similar to the prior arrangements except with respect to a change in the minimum arrangement and a reduction in per patient charges. These contracts expire on February 28, 1997. Many of the MRI systems placed into operation in the market area of the Company's existing MRI centers were purchased and operated by physicians. For some physicians, it was the only way to gain access to this expensive technology. For others, it was an opportunity to invest in a technology that they use to help diagnose their patients' medical problems. The Company competes for patient referrals from physicians with the other MRI centers located in its immediate market area. Because physicians can no longer refer to entities in which they have an ownership interest, the physicians have no financial predisposition to refer to a given center. The Company's ability to obtain referrals will be based upon the quality of its service and its ability to obtain contracts to treat managed care patients. Three new MRI centers have recently begun operations in the market area of Medcross Imaging, Ltd., which has reduced the number of procedures performed by Medcross Imaging, Ltd. and has had a negative impact on revenue. In January 1996, the two hospitals to which Medcross Imaging, Ltd. provides service recently obtained a major managed care contract which management believes will significantly increase the number of patients treated at those two facilities. Tampa MRI has obtained over 40 managed care contracts during 1995. While this has reduced the average per- patient charges, it has increased the number of patients treated. Ultrasound. The Company's consolidated revenue did not reflect revenue from ultrasound services until the fourth quarter of 1994. Prior to that time, the Company's ultrasound operations were performed by a joint venture in which the Company had a 25% ownership interest. Income from the joint venture was reported on the equity method. Effective October 1, 1994, the Company purchased the other 75% ownership interest in the joint venture, which was primarily owned by the physicians receiving services from the joint venture. On May 1, 1995, the Company transferred all of its ultrasound operations to Tampa MRI. The ultrasound services are provided at each physician's office under the physician's direction. The Company is not looking to expand its operations outside of the current market area. There are two main competitors in the Company's market area. Management believes that it will maintain its referrals with the physicians offices and may even gain additional physician referrals through its marketing efforts. Therapeutic Services In the late 1980s, the Company was one of the industry leaders, providing mobile kidney lithotripsy service throughout the southeastern United States. The Company put the world's first mobile kidney lithotripter into operation in 1986. During the next two years, the Company developed four additional mobile kidney lithotripsy networks. In 1986, the Company coordinated the development of one of the leading outpatient lithotripsy centers in the nation which the Company managed under a management agreement. In 1992, 65% of the ownership in the facility was sold to CORAM, a publicly held corporation. In 1994, the Company's responsibilities under the management agreement were reduced to providing financial services. The annual revenue from this management contract was also reduced from an average of approximately $180,000 to $47,100 per year. In 1995, the remaining 35% of the ownership in the facility was sold to CORAM. In August 1995, the management agreement was terminated. The Company has management agreements with three other owners of mobile kidney lithotripters that operate in seven different states. The Company provides turn-key operations, management, and financial services under its agreements with the owning entities. The Company also provides the trained technicians who operate the lithotripters and, when requested, the drivers who transport the equipment between the using facilities. The Company does not expect any expansion or new development efforts in the lithotripsy area. 40 The Company had a 7 1/2% ownership interest in International Prostate Partners, formed in 1992. International Prostate Center - Cayman, Ltd., a wholly owned Cayman Island subsidiary of International Prostate Partners, provided transurethral microwave therapy ("TUMT") services in Georgetown, Grand Cayman, for patients with benign prostate hyperplasia ("BPH"). The Company contracted to provide a full range of management services, beginning in 1993, to International Prostate Partners and International Prostate Center - Cayman, Ltd. Operations began in January 1994. The patient case load was insufficient to support operating expenditures. Therefore, the operations were closed down and the equipment put in storage pending FDA approval. In August 1, 1995, the Company sold its interest in the partnership and its Management Agreement was terminated. In May 1996, the manufacturer received FDA approval. The Company has proposed this technology to its existing lithotripsy clients; however, any decisions to be made are pending Medicare reimbursement approval. No assurance can be given by the Company as to when, or if Medicare reimbursement approval will be received. Foreign Sales and Service of Diagnostic Imaging Equipment In January 1993, the Company formed Medcross Asia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary headquartered in Hong Kong. This subsidiary was formed to identify opportunities for the Company to enter the medical field in the Far East. China is a rapidly expanding market just beginning to be tapped by western companies, especially in the area of medical equipment. Medcross, Inc. is one of the few companies, and by far the smallest company, seeking to export computerized tomography ("CT") equipment to the area. The Company's competitors include the original equipment manufacturers such as Picker International, General Electric, Siemens, Toshiba, Hitachi, Elscint, and Shimadzu. In addition, several companies specializing in the sale and refurbishment of used CT equipment have entered the China market. These companies include Link Equipment Services International, Ltd., Medical Science and Technology International, Inc., Access International, Inc., AJK, Inc., Makers International, Inc., and U.S. Pacific International Medical Equipment Company, Ltd. China's hospitals and clinics are in need of virtually every type of medical imaging equipment, and even outdated American technology is in high demand. On January 7, 1994, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with China National Medical Equipment and Supplies Import & Export Shenyang Corporation ("CNMC"). The joint venture company, Shenyang Medcross Huamei Medical Equipment Company, Ltd. ("SMHME") is located in the People's Republic of China. SMHME is 51% owned by the Company and 49% owned by CNMC. SMHME imports used and refurbished CT scanners for resale to hospitals in the province of Shenyang. SMHME also provides warranty service, including parts and labor, for the machines it sells and intends to provide warranty service for other machines already existing in the province. The Company's responsibilities include locating, purchasing, refurbishing, and shipping used medical equipment to SMHME. CNMC was required to contribute $380,000 in cash to SMHME of which $260,417 has been contributed. Medcross contributed CT scanner equipment and parts with an agreed upon value of $390,000 and a cost basis of $251,972 to SMHME. The Company opened an office in Beijing to sell and service used CT scanning equipment in the People's Republic of China outside the province of Shenyang. In May 1995, the Company closed its Beijing office and is actively pursuing the sale of such operations. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY The Company currently occupies approximately 3,400 square feet for its corporate offices located at 3227 Bennet Street North, St. Petersburg, Florida on a month-to-month basis. The Company leases approximately 3,600 square feet for its outpatient MRI center located in Tampa, Florida under two leases. The lease for the business office expired July 31, 1996 and the Company occupies the space on a month-to-month basis. The lease for the medical facility expires May 31, 1998. The Company has the option to extend the medical facility lease an additional two years. 41 ILINK has entered into a ten-month lease for 5,000 square feet of space in Austin, Texas, which lease expires February 1, 1997. Pursuant to such lease, ILINK pays rent of $5,000 per month. ILINK also leases several other spaces to house its POPs throughout the United States. Such spaces vary in size and are rented on a month-to-month basis. ILINK currently leases and occupies approximately 6,500 square feet of office space in Draper, Utah, pursuant to a commercial lease dated May 21, 1996, with an unrelated third party. The initial lease term is five years commencing July 8, 1996 at a base rent of $5,451 per month. In addition, ILINK will be responsible for certain improvements to such facilities above $97,120. In September 1996, ILINK entered into a second lease for 14,000 square feet of space from the landlord in an adjacent building pursuant to a commercial lease dated September 11, 1996. The term of the lease is seven years commencing November 5, 1996, subject to the right to extend for an additional five years. The initial base rent is approximately $11,650 per month. ILINK has delivered $215,000 in certificates of deposit to the landlord as a security deposit under the lease. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Florida legislature enacted the Patient Self-Referral Act of 1992, effective April 8, 1992. The Self-Referral Act imposed a fee cap, effective July 1, 1992, limiting the technical and professional fees of all providers of "clinical laboratory services, physical therapy services, comprehensive rehabilitative services, diagnostic imaging services, and radiation therapy services" to no more than 115% of the Medicare limiting charge for non- participating physicians. The statute specifically excludes hospitals and physician group practices from the fee cap provision and does not apply to patients eligible for Medicaid or Medicare reimbursement. On June 30, 1992 in an action brought in the Florida Circuit, Second Judicial Circuit, in and for Leon County, entitled Physical Therapy Rehabilitation Center of Coral Springs, Inc. et al. vs. State of Florida, et al. (File Nos. 92-2736, 92-2751, 92-2785, and 92-2879) the Circuit Court enjoined the State of Florida from enforcing such fee cap provision. On June 24, 1994, the Company intervened as a party plaintiff in such state court action in accordance with an order entered on June 16, 1994. On July 7, 1994, the Circuit Court granted a motion for Summary Judgment filed by the plaintiffs (including the Company), ruling that the fee cap provision was unconstitutional insofar as it related to the business of the Company, due to a defect in the title of the bill that contains the fee cap provision. The Attorney General of the State of Florida filed an appeal to the June 16 and July 7 Circuit Court rulings. On November 1, 1994 the appeal court, namely, the District Court of Appeals, First District, on its own motion, quashed the July 7 order for lack of jurisdiction because the appeal of the June 16 order was still pending. An injunction has been obtained preventing the State of Florida from enforcing the fee cap. The State of Florida's appeal relating to the injunction has been dismissed by the Florida Supreme Court. The Circuit Court action has also been dismissed. A Complaint was filed on April 12, 1996, by JW Charles Financial Services, Inc. ("JW Charles") against the Company in Palm Beach County Florida Circuit Court, JW Charles Financial Services, Inc. v. Medcross, Inc., Case No: CL96- 3218. JW Charles was issued a Common Stock Purchase Warrant ("JW Charles Warrant") on or about November 3, 1994 by the Company. The alleged terms of the JW Charles Warrant granted JW Charles the right to purchase from the Company 250,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "JW Charles Shares") subject to adjustment. On or about February 12, 1996, JW Charles made written demand to the Company to invoke its rights to have the JW Charles Shares registered pursuant to the terms of the JW Charles Warrant. The Complaint alleges that the Company breached the terms of the JW Charles Warrant by failing to prepare and file with the Commission, a registration statement covering such shares. JW Charles alleges a breach of contract and 42 requests specific performance, i.e., registering the shares with the Commission, against the Company.

No trial date has been set as of the date hereof. 1996 OFFERINGS 10% Notes Offering Simultaneous with the closing of the ILINK Acquisition in February 1996, the Company completed a private placement of $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of convertible promissory notes (the "10% Notes"). The 10% Notes were payable upon the earlier of August 31, 1996 (subject to extension) or the Company's receipt of proceeds of at least $4,000,000 from subsequent debt or equity offerings. The 10% Notes bore interest payable semi-annually at the rate of 10%. Up to $1,250 of each $50,000 in principal amount of the 10% Note was convertible at any time at the option of the holder, into an aggregate of 350,000 shares of Common Stock at the rate of approximately $.0714 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments; and such principal amount was converted in August 1996. The proceeds of the 10% Notes Offering were used to pay outstanding accounts payable and other debts of ILINK. Commonwealth served as placement agent for the 10% Notes Offering and received a placement agent fee equal to 10% of the purchase price of the 10% Notes sold ($100,000) and a $20,000 expense reimbursement to cover legal fees. Class C Offering On September 6, 1996, the Company closed a private placement of 240,000 shares of Class C Preferred Stock, $10 par value per share, at $60 per share. Each share of Class C Preferred Stock entitles the holder to receive a quarterly dividend of $1.20 (8% per annum) payable in cash or, at the option of the Company, in shares of Common Stock of the Company. Unless previously redeemed, the Class C Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Conversion Shares"), at the option of the holder, commencing November 21, 1996, into such number of shares of the Company's Common Stock as shall equal $60 divided by the lower of (i) $2.50 or (ii) the closing bid price for any five consecutive trading days during the period commencing on September 6, 1996 and ending eighteen months thereafter (the "Conversion Price"). Unless previously redeemed, the shares of the Class C Preferred Stock are automatically converted into the Conversion Shares on September 6, 2002 at a Conversion Price equal to the lower of the then current Conversion Price or 50% of the average closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock for the 10 trading days immediately preceding September 6, 2002. In addition, the Company issued $717,000 of principal amount of Convertible Promissory Notes payable on April 1, 1997 (the "Maturity Date") and bearing interest at 8% per annum (previously defined as the "Convertible Notes"). The Convertible Notes provide for the accrual of interest at the simple annual rate of 8%, payable quarterly (18% following the Event of Default which remains uncured). The unpaid principal balance of the Convertible Notes may be prepaid by the Company without penalty upon 30 days' notice to the holder; provided, however, that certain conditions be met. The unpaid principal amount of a Convertible Note will be automatically converted into shares of Class C Preferred Stock at any time prior to the close of business on the Maturity Date at the rate of $60 per share of Class C Preferred Stock upon certain conditions being met. See "Description of Securities--Convertible Promissory Notes." 43 The Company received net proceeds of approximately $12.8 million from the Class C Offering, after commissions and other expenses related to the offering. As a result of the closing of the private placement, 1.6 million shares of the Company's restricted Common Stock held in escrow for the benefit of the former shareholders of ILINK have been released from escrow, in accordance with the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement between ILINK and the Company. Upon such release, the Company recorded additional intangible assets of $9.8 million, which is being expensed over the remaining life of the intangible assets. In addition, the Company recorded a $9.8 million increase in shareholders' equity. Commonwealth Associates (previously defined and hereinafter referred to as "Commonwealth"), acted as the placement agent for the Class C Offering. Commonwealth received a commission equal to seven percent (7%) of the aggregate purchase price of the shares of Class C Preferred Stock and Convertible Notes sold, a non-accountable expense allowance equal to three percent (3%) of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Class C Preferred Stock and Convertible Notes and certain other specified offering-related costs. In addition, the Company granted Commonwealth a right of first refusal to underwrite or place any future public or private sale of debt or equity securities or any such sale by certain principal shareholders of the Company, its subsidiaries and successors, for a period of five years after the closing of the Class C Offering. The Company issued to Commonwealth Warrants to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock and Consultant's Warrants to purchase up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock (together previously defined as the "Commonwealth Warrants"). The Commonwealth Warrants will be exercisable for five (5) years commencing March 1997 at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, subject to adjustment. See "Description of Securities--Commonwealth Warrants." The Company also entered into an Consulting Agreement with Commonwealth, pursuant to which: (i) the Company shall employ Commonwealth as its investment banker and financial consultant for a period of twelve (12) months; (ii) the Company paid Commonwealth a fee of $200,000, plus 2% of the gross proceeds of the Class C Offering in excess of $10,000,000, for such twelve (12) month period; and (iii) the Company agreed to pay Commonwealth a fee of five percent (5%) of the first $5,000,000 and two and one-half percent (2-1/2%) of the amount over $5,000,000 of the consideration paid or received by the Company (or by any affiliated entity of the Company) in any transaction (including mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures and other business transactions) consummated by the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company introduced to the Company by Commonwealth. Certain officers, directors and affiliated persons, including holders of the 10% Notes, the Four M Options, the Kanter Option Shares and the Babcock Option, have agreed with Commonwealth not to sell any shares of Common Stock or options to purchase Common Stock for a period of 12 months from September 6, 1996 without the prior written consent of Commonwealth. In addition, holders of the 10% Notes who converted a portion of such Notes to Common Stock and who acquired Class C Preferred Stock in the Class C Offering have agreed with Commonwealth not to sell any shares of Common Stock or the Conversion Shares for a period of twelve (12) months from September 6, 1996, without the prior written consent of Commonwealth; provided, however, Commonwealth has agreed that such persons will be permitted to sell a sufficient amount of the shares of Common Stock or Conversion Shares as will equal the principal amount of the 10% Note previously held by such shareholder. In addition, certain officers, directors and affiliated persons of the Company have agreed not to exercise any options owned by them (and to waive reservation of the shares of Common Stock underlying such options) until shareholders authorize such number of additional shares of Common Stock necessary to accommodate the lowest Conversion Price of the Class C Preferred Stock and, finally, all such persons have agreed to vote their shares of Common Stock for such increase in authorized capital. 44 Commonwealth designated Joseph Cohen for election to the Board of Directors of the Company, and designated Michael Falk as a non-voting advisor to the Board of Directors. In addition, Commonwealth was granted the right to approve the Company's selection of a second outside director to be nominated for election at the next annual or special meeting of stockholders. See "Management." Commonwealth also arranged bridge financings for the Company in the amount of $375,000 and was paid $37,500 in commissions from the proceeds of the Class C Offering. See "Certain Transactions," "Description of Securities" and "Selling Securityholders" for a description of the acquisition of certain securities by Commonwealth and associates and affiliates of Commonwealth.

Pollak, the initial term of one of which expired on January 31, 1996 and the second of such agreements commenced thereafter. The term of the second agreement was for a period of three years, subject to earlier termination by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the first of such agreements (collectively, the "Pollak Agreements"), Mr. Pollak received 50,000 shares of Common Stock. The second of the Pollak Agreements provided Mr. Pollak with an option to purchase up to 50,000 shares of Common Stock each year at prices of $1.50, $2.50 and $3.50, respectively. The second of the Pollak Agreements was terminated by the Company on March 5, 1996 (upon thirty days' advance notice which renders such termination effective April 4, 1996). The shares of Common Stock subject to the Barnes Agreement and Pollak Agreement have been included in registration statements on Form S-8 recently filed by the Company with the Commission (Registration Nos. 33-63751, 33-63749 and 33-01525, respectively). 51 Committees of the Board of Directors Audit Committee. The Company's audit committee (the "Audit Committee") is responsible for making recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning the selection and engagement of the Company's independent certified public accountants and for reviewing the scope of the annual audit, audit fees, and results of the audit. The Audit Committee also reviews and discusses with management and the Board of Directors such matters as accounting policies and internal accounting controls, and procedures for preparation of financial statements. Dr. Babcock, Chairman of the Audit Committee, Clay Wilkes and Joseph A. Cohen are members of the Audit Committee. Compensation Committee. The Company's compensation committee (the "Compensation Committee") approves the compensation for executive employees of the Company. Dr. Babcock, John Edwards, and Joseph A. Cohen are members of the Compensation Committee. Executive Committee. The Company's executive committee (the "Executive Committee") is vested with all the powers of the Board of Directors, subject to the limitations set forth in the Florida Business Corporation Act. Mr. Toh is a member of such committee and there are two vacancies. Director Stock Option Plan The Company's Director Stock Option Plan (the "DSOP") authorizes the grant of stock options to directors of the Company. Options granted under the DSOP are non-qualified stock options exercisable at a price equal to the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the date of any such grant. Options granted under the DSOP are exercisable not less than six (6) months nor more than ten (10) years after the date of grant. As of September 30, 1996, options for the purchase of 10,503 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $.875 to $3.875 per share were outstanding. As of September 30, 1996, options to purchase 8,169 shares of Common Stock have been exercised. In connection with adoption of the 1995 Director Plans (as hereinafter defined) the Board of Directors authorized the termination of future grants of options under the DSOP; however, outstanding options granted under the DSOP will continue to be governed by the terms thereof until exercise or expiration of such options. Stock Purchase Plan In accordance with the Employee Qualified Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan"), employees may contribute up to ten percent of their base wages toward the purchase of Common Stock. The exercise price of options granted under the Purchase Plan is the lesser of 85% of the market value on the first business day of the payment period (September 1) or the last business day of the payment period (August 31). As of September 30, 1996, the Company had 35,146 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance on exercise of the purchase rights granted under the Purchase Plan. 1995 Director Stock Option Plan In October 1995, the stockholders of the Company approved adoption of the Company's 1995 Director Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan, which plan provides for the issuance of incentive options, non-qualified options and stock appreciation rights (the "1995 Director Plan"). The 1995 Director Plan provides for automatic and discretionary grants of stock options which qualify as incentive stock options (the "Incentive Options") under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), as well as options which do not so qualify (the "Non-Qualified Options") to be issued to directors. In addition, stock appreciation rights (the "SARs") may be granted in conjunction with the grant of Incentive Options and Non-Qualified Options. No SARs have been granted to date. 52 The 1995 Director Plan provides for the grant of Incentive Options, Non- Qualified Options and SARs to purchase up to 250,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits and other similar events). To the extent that an Incentive Option or Non-Qualified Option is not exercised within the period of exercisability specified therein, it will expire as to the then-unexercised portion. If any Incentive Option, Non- Qualified Option or SAR terminates prior to exercise thereof and during the duration of the 1995 Director Plan, the shares of Common Stock as to which such option or right was not exercised will become available under the 1995 Director Plan for the grant of additional options or rights to any eligible employees. The shares of Common Stock subject to the 1995 Director Plan may be made available from either authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or both. The 1995 Director Plan also provides for the grant of Non-Qualified Options on a non-discretionary basis pursuant to the following formula: each member of the Board of Directors then serving shall receive a Non-Qualified Option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value per share of the Common Stock on that date. Pursuant to such formula, directors received options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock as of October 17, 1995, options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock on January 2, 1996, and will receive options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock on the first business day of each January. Each option is immediately exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of grant. The Company has 250,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1995 Director Plan. As of September 30, 1996, options exercisable to purchase 230,000 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $1.00 to $1.25 per share have been granted under the 1995 Director Plan. As of September 30, 1996, options to purchase 40,000 shares have been exercised under the 1995 Director Plan. 1995 Employee Stock Option Plan In October 1995, the stockholders of the Company approved adoption of the Company's 1995 Employee Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan (the "1995 Employee Plan"), which plan provides for the issuance of Incentive Options, Non- Qualified Options and SARs. Directors of the Company are not eligible to participate in the 1995 Employee Plan. The 1995 Employee Plan provides for the grant of stock options which qualify as Incentive Stock Options under Section 422 of the Code, to be issued to officers who are employees and other employees, as well as Non- Qualified Options to be issued to officers, employees and consultants. In addition, SARs may be granted in conjunction with the grant of Incentive Options and Non-Qualified Options. No SARs have been granted to date. The 1995 Employee Plan provides for the grant of Incentive Options, Non- Qualified Options and SARs of up to 400,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits and other similar events). To the event that an Incentive Option or Non-Qualified Option is not exercised within the period of exercisability specified therein, it will expire as to the then-unexercised portion. If any Incentive Option, Non-Qualified Option or SAR terminates prior to exercise thereof and during the duration of the 1995 Employee Plan, the shares of Common Stock as to which such option or right was not exercised will become available under the 1995 Employee Plan for the grant of additional options or rights to any eligible employee. The shares of Common Stock subject to the 1995 Employee Plan may be made available from either authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or both. The Company has 400,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1995 Employee Plan. As of September 30, 1996, options to purchase 75,000 shares of Common Stock with exercise prices of $1.125 per share have been granted under the 1995 Employee Plan. To date, no options have been exercised under the 1995 Employee Plan. 53 Other Options The Company has committed to issue an aggregate of 3,250,000 shares to certain officers and directors. Management intends to propose the adoption of a Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan providing for the issuance of Incentive Options, Non-Qualified Options and SARs, subject to approval of stockholders and an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, in order to make a plan available and provide for such further options as the Board of Directors may determine to issue. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS During the first quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company received advances totaling $218,000 from Mortgage Network International ("MNI"). Henry Y.L. Toh, a Director of the Company, has management control over MNI. Such advances were previously payable upon demand. Subsequent to the extension of such advances, the Board of Directors approved delivery of a promissory note representing the aggregate amount of such advances, which promissory note matured by its terms on October 1, 1995 and bears interest at one percent over the prime rate of interest established by Southwest Bank of Texas, N.A. Subsequently, the Company and MNI modified the note such that: (i) a principal payment in the amount of $88,000 is due and payable on December 31, 1996; (ii) interest thereon is payable monthly at the rate of 10.5%; and (iii) the remaining principal amount of $130,000 with interest thereon at the rate of 10.5% will be paid in 36 equal monthly payments of $4,225.32. ILINK was indebted to T6-G Limited Partnership ("T6-G") in the amount of $300,000, which sums were repaid in full from the proceeds of the Class C Offering. T6-G owns a 9.5% interest in ILINK, Ltd.

Culbreth (25,000 Options) and John Beardmore (25,000 Options). In August 1996, the Four M Options were amended to provide that in the event that $200,000 in principal amount (i.e., exercise proceeds) of the Four M Options have been exercised prior to December 31, 1996, the exercise period of the remaining Four M Options exercisable during 1996 (the "1996 Four M Options") will be extended to September 6, 1997 and the exercise price would be increased by four percent (4%) of the then current exercise price for each 30 day period or portion 54 thereof commencing January 1, 1997 in which the remainder of the 1996 Four M Options are not exercised.

The "MDCR" symbol was changed to "ILNK" effective March 8, 1996. Although the Common Stock is currently listed for quotation on Nasdaq, there can be no assurance given that the Company will be able to continue to satisfy the requirements for maintaining quotation of such securities on Nasdaq or that such quotation will otherwise continue. The Company has no current plans to apply for listing of any of the shares of Class B Preferred Stock, Class C Preferred Stock, the Commonwealth Warrants or any of its other securities for quotation on Nasdaq. See "Risk Factors--Continued Nasdaq Listing." The range of high and low bid information for the Common Stock for each full quarterly period during 1996 and within the two prior fiscal years is as follows:
Quarter Ended High Bid Low Bid ------------------ -------- ------- March 31, 1994 $5.00 $3.75 June 30, 1994 4.00 3.00 September 30, 1994 3.13 2.75 December 31, 1994 3.13 2.00 March 31, 1995 $2.13 $1.13 June 30, 1995 1.13 0.63 September 30, 1995 1.13 0.88 December 31, 1995 1.25 1.00 March 31, 1996 $7.63 $1.00 June 30, 1996 9.75 6.13 September 30, 1996 7.50 4.06
These quotations reflect interdealer prices, without retail markup, markdown, or commission and may not represent actual transactions. As of November 1, 1996, there were approximately 234 stockholders of record and approximately 1200 beneficial owners. In addition, as of the same date, there were approximately 68 individual participants in security position listings furnished by Cede & Co., New York, New York, registered clearing agency and depository. On December 10, 1996, the closing bid price for a share of Common Stock was $5.50. 74 DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES Common Stock The Company is currently authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock, having a par value of $.007 per share. The Company proposes to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to at least 50,000,000; and the Company expects to solicit shareholder approval for the same in the near future. As of September 30, 1996, there are 11,466,312 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and there are approximately 234 holders of record of the Common Stock, and approximately 1,200 beneficial owners. Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on each matter submitted to the stockholders of the Company for a vote thereon. The holders of Common Stock: (i) have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefor when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors; (ii) are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for distribution to holders of Common Stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company; (iii) do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights, or redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable thereto; and (iv) as noted above, are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters submitted to stockholders for a vote at any meeting of stockholders. Prior to any payment of dividends to the holders of Common Stock, all accrued and unpaid dividends on any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock must be paid. Other than as set forth herein, the Company anticipates that, for the foreseeable future, it will retain earnings, if any, to finance the operations of its businesses. The payment of dividends in the future will depend upon, among other things, the capital requirements and the operating and financial conditions of the Company. Preferred Stock The Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of preferred stock, $10.00 par value per share (previously defined as the "Preferred Stock"). The Company proposes to increase the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock to at least 2,000,000 and to solicit shareholder approval for the same in the near future. The Board of Directors is authorized to issue shares of Preferred Stock from time to time in one or more series and, subject to the limitations contained in the Articles of Incorporation and any limitations prescribed by law, to establish and designate any such series and to fix the number of shares and the relative conversion rights, voting rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions) and liquidation preferences. New issuances of shares of Preferred Stock with voting rights can affect the voting rights of the holders of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and Common Stock by increasing the number of outstanding shares having voting rights, and by the creation of class or series voting rights. Furthermore, additional issuances of shares of Preferred Stock with conversion rights can have the effect of increasing the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding up to the amount of Common Stock authorized by the Articles of Incorporation and can also, under certain circumstances, have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company and/or otherwise adversely affect the rights of holders of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and Common Stock. To the extent permitted by the Articles of Incorporation, such shares of Preferred Stock may have preferences over the Common Stock (and other series of Preferred Stock) with respect to dividends and liquidation rights. As of September 30, 1996, 22,500 shares of Preferred Stock had been designated Class B Preferred Stock (of which 7,500 shares are issued and outstanding), 240,000 shares of Preferred Stock had been designated Class C Preferred Stock (of which 240,000 are issued and outstanding), and 7,500 shares of Preferred Stock had been designated 12% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (no shares of which are issued and outstanding). 75 Class B Preferred Stock There are 22,500 shares of Class B Preferred Stock authorized to be issued, 7,500 of which are issued and outstanding. Each share of Class B Preferred Stock entitles the holder thereof to receive cumulative dividends. The initial dividend rate for the Class B Preferred Stock was 5.5%. Effective April 1, 1992, the rate has been adjusted monthly, to be equal to the published rate paid by Texas Commerce Bank, N.A., Houston, Texas, on 30-day certificates of deposit in effect on the first day of each such month, plus 2%. As of December 1, 1995, the Class B Preferred Stock dividend rate was 5.0%. Dividends are payable in cash quarterly on the first day of July, October, January and April of each year that any shares of Class B Preferred Stock are outstanding. Dividends accrue on each share of Class B Preferred Stock whether or not earned or declared and whether or not there are funds of the Company legally available for payment thereof. Each share of Class B Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder thereof into shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock into which shares of Class B Preferred Stock are convertible is derived by multiplying the number of shares of Class B Preferred Stock to be converted by a fraction, the numerator of which is $10.00 and the denominator of which is the conversion price ("Conversion Price"), which is adjustable. The initial Conversion Price was $0.058375. As of September 30, 1996, the Conversion Price was $0.408625; therefore the number of shares of Common Stock issuable if all 7,500 outstanding shares of Class B Preferred Stock were converted as of such date would be 183,542. Except as otherwise provided by law, shares of Class B Preferred Stock have no voting rights. The Class B Preferred Stock is subject to redemption by the Company at any time. If called for redemption, the right to convert Class B Preferred Stock to Common Stock shall terminate on the close of business on the day before the date fixed for actual payment of the redemption price. No shares of Class B Preferred Stock designated for redemption pursuant to any notice of redemption shall be entitled to any dividends after the applicable redemption date. On the redemption date, all rights of the holders of such shares as stockholders of the Company by reason of the ownership of such shares shall cease, except the right to receive the redemption price of such shares upon presentation and surrender of the certificate representing such shares. No Class B Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall be deemed to be outstanding after the redemption date. The redemption price is $10.00 per share of Class B Preferred Stock, plus the amount of any accrued and unpaid dividends on such share on the date payment of such redemption price is paid. In the event of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, the holders of the Class B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to liquidation rights identical to the holders of the Class A Preferred Stock; however, such liquidation rights are subordinate to the Class A Preferred Stock, but superior to any other series of Preferred Stock and to the Common Stock. Class C Preferred Stock There are 240,000 shares of Class C Preferred Stock designated and issued and outstanding. The holders of the Class C Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative preferential dividends, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, on a quarterly basis on November 15, February 15, May 15 and August 15 each year in an amount equal to 8% per annum of the liquidation preference per share of $60.00. Dividends will be paid, to the extent permissible under the Florida Business Corporation Act, to the holders of the Class C Preferred Stock in cash or, at the option of the Company, as determined by the Board of Directors, in shares of Common Stock (the "Dividend Shares") (based upon the last sale price of a share of Common Stock for the five trading days preceding the record date for a particular 76 dividend), provided that such Dividend Shares are covered by an effective registration statement. Except as otherwise provided by law, shares of Class C Preferred Stock have no voting rights. Conversion Rights. Unless previously redeemed, the Class C Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock, at any time commencing November 21, 1996, at the option of the holder, into such number of shares of the Company's Common Stock as shall equal $60 divided by the lower of (i) $2.50, or (ii) the closing bid price for any five consecutive trading days during the period commencing on September 6, 1996 and ending on March 5, 1998 (previously defined as the "Conversion Price"), subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments including adjustments for (a) the sale or issuance of Common Stock by the Company at a price less than the Conversion Price (except for shares issuable upon exercise or conversion of securities outstanding or issuable by the Company as of the date hereof), (b) the failure of the Company to register the Conversion Shares, as defined below, within twelve months from the date of the final closing of the Offering contemplated hereby and a readjustment in the Conversion Price in the event the closing bid price is less than $2.50 at any time during the period commencing on the Final Closing and ending eighteen (18) months thereafter (the "Adjustment Period") or (c) in the event the closing bid price is less than $2.50 for five consecutive trading days during the Adjustment Period, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to the lower of the then current Conversion Price or the lowest of the average closing bid price for five consecutive trading days during the Adjustment Period. In no event shall the Conversion Price be adjusted below $1.25 on account of the adjustments described in (a), (b) or (c); however, the Conversion Price is subject to adjustment under certain other circumstances. As of the date hereof, none of the shares of Class C Preferred Stock has been converted. Although the Company contemplates obtaining shareholder approval for the amendment of the Company's Articles of Incorporation to accommodate such adjustment provision, in the event that all 240,000 Shares are sold, the Company is without sufficient shares of Common Stock to accommodate an adjustment of the Conversion Price below $2.06. Therefore, no adjustment will be effected unless and until the Company's authorized shares is increased. See "Risk Factors--Authorization of Preferred Stock." Automatic Conversion. Unless previously redeemed, the Class C Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted into the Conversion Shares on September 6, 2001 at a Conversion Price equal to the lower of the then current Conversion Price or 50% of the average closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the fifth anniversary of the Final Closing. Redemption. The Class C Preferred Stock is redeemable at any time prior to September 6, 2000, at the option of the Company, as determined by the Board of Directors, on not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days written notice to registered holders at a redemption price equal to $60 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends, provided (i) the Conversion Shares are covered by an effective registration statement; and (ii) during the immediately preceding thirty (30) consecutive trading days ending within fifteen (15) days of the date of the notice of redemption, the closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock is not less than $8.00 per share. The Class C Preferred Stock is redeemable at any time after September 6, 2000, at the option of the Company, on not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days written notice to registered holders at a redemption price equal to $90 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, provided the Conversion Shares are covered by an effective registration statement or the Conversion Shares are otherwise exempt from registration. Registration Rights. Within 12 months of September 6, 1996, the Company shall file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Common Stock underlying the Class C 77 Preferred Stock (previously defined as the "Conversion Shares"). If the registration statement is not declared effective within such 12 month period, the Conversion Price shall be subject to an additional reduction of 10% for each 90 day delay in the effective date of the Registration Statement and the dividend rate shall be increased to 12%; provided, however, that in the event the Company files any registration statement prior to the expiration of 12 months from September 6, 1996, the Conversion Shares shall be likewise registered at such time; and further provided that the Conversion Price shall not be reduced below $1.25 per share. Lockup. The holders of the Conversion Shares and Dividend Shares may not publicly sell their Conversion Shares or Dividend Shares, if any, for a period of 12 months from September 6, 1996, without the prior written consent of Commonwealth. The 10% Notes The Company issued $1,000,000 in principal amount of 10% Notes on February 23, 1996. Commonwealth acted as the placement agent of the 10% Notes. Each 10% Note has a minimum face amount of $50,000 and provides for the accrual of interest at the simple annual rate of 10%, payable at maturity. The 10% Notes were due upon the earlier of August 31, 1996 (the "Maturity Date") or the Company's receipt of proceeds of at least $4 million from an equity or debt financing (the "Accelerated Maturity Date"). The Company had the right to extend the Maturity Date of some or all of the 10% Notes until February 28, 1997 upon payment to the holder(s) of the 10% Note(s) of a cash payment equal to two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the then outstanding principal amount of such 10% Note(s). In the event of extension by the Company, the interest rate with respect to the unpaid principal balance would have increased to the simple annual rate of thirteen percent (13%). The unpaid principal balance of the 10% Notes was prepayable by the Company without penalty upon 30 days notice to the holder. Up to $1,250 of each $50,000 (i.e., 2.5%) of unpaid principal amount of a 10% Note was convertible at the option of the holder into 17,500 shares of Common Stock (or $.0714 per share) (subject to adjustment) at any time after March 31, 1996 but prior to the Maturity Date or Accelerated Maturity Date. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the 10% Note), the conversion right in the 10% Note shall be amended such that the remaining unpaid principal balance shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at 40% of the fair market value (the average of the closing bid and ask prices on the last ten trading days of the prior calendar month) per share of Common Stock. Effective as of August 21, 1996, holders of an aggregate of $1,000,000 in principal of the 10% Notes elected to convert $25,000 in principal to 350,000 shares of Common Stock. The non-convertible portion of the principal of the 10% Notes was repaid from the proceeds of the Class C Offering. Simultaneous with the Company's repayment, holders of the 10% Notes instructed the Company to allocate an aggregate of $709,900 in the principal amount of the 10% Notes to purchase an aggregate of 11,018 shares of Class C Preferred Stock. The holders of the 10% Notes who converted a portion of such notes to purchase Common Stock and/or purchased Class C Preferred Stock have agreed with Commonwealth not to publicly sell their shares of Common Stock or Conversion Shares for a period of 12 months from September 6, 1996; however, Commonwealth has agreed with such stockholders who used a portion of the repayment of the 10% Notes to purchase Class C Preferred Stock in the Class C Offering to permit such person to sell a sufficient amount of Conversion Shares following registration thereof as will equal in value the principal amount of the note repayment used to purchase Class C Preferred Stock. 78 The 10% Notes provide for demand registration rights for the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the 10% Note on one occasion at any time after March 1, 1996 but prior to February 28, 1999, upon the written request from the holders of at least fifty percent (50%) of the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the 10% Notes. In addition the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the 10% Notes shall have piggy-back registration rights in the event that the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Act in connection with the public offering thereof solely for cash. (other than any registration statement on the Forms S-4, S-8 or a similar form); provided however, that the Company shall have no such obligation after three (3) years from the date of issuance of the 10% Notes or if the managing underwriter of the subject proposed offering expresses its objection thereto. Holders of an aggregate of $1,000,000 in the principal amount of the 10% Notes demanded registration of the shares of Common Stock on September 9, 1996. Convertible Promissory Notes The Company issued an aggregate of $717,000 in principal amount of Convertible Promissory Notes (previously defined as the "Convertible Notes") on September 6, 1996 in connection with the Class C Offering. Commonwealth acted as the placement agent for such notes. Each Convertible Note is due on April 1, 1997 with interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. The Convertible Notes are prepayable by the Company without penalty upon 30 days notice provided that the Company has effected an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to increase its authorized capital stock and designated sufficient Class C Preferred Stock to accommodate conversion of the Convertible Notes. The entirety of the unpaid principal amount of the Convertible Notes will be automatically converted into shares of Class C Preferred Stock at the rate of $60 per share of Class C Preferred Stock upon the amendment of the Company's Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of Preferred Stock to at least 2,000,000 and the authorized number of shares of Common Stock to at least 50,000,000 shares (the "Articles Amendment") and the designation of sufficient shares to accommodate conversion. The Convertible Notes are convertible into an aggregate of 11,950 shares of Class C Preferred Stock. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default (an "Event of Default") under the Convertible Notes: (i) the failure to pay when due any principal or interest thereunder; (ii) the failure of the Company to effect the Articles Amendment within seven (7) months of issuance of the Convertible Note; (iii) the violation by the Company of any covenant or agreement contained in the Convertible Note and the continuance of such violation for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice to the Company of such failure; (iv) any change in control of the Company which the Board of Directors of the Company deems to be hostile or unfriendly; (v) the assignment for the benefit of creditors by the Company; (vi) the application for the appointment of a receiver or liquidator for the Company or for property of the Company; (vii) the filing of a petition in bankruptcy by or against the Company; (viii) the issuance of an attachment or the entry of a judgment against the Company in excess of $500,000; (ix) a default by the Company with respect to any other material indebtedness or obligation; (x) the making or sending of a notice of an intended bulk sale by the Company; or (xi) the termination of existence, dissolution or insolvency of the Company. There is no sinking fund or other security for the payment of the Convertible Notes. JW Charles Common Stock Purchase Warrant As of November 3, 1994, the Company issued a Common Stock Purchase Warrant (previously defined as the "JW Charles Warrant") to J.W. Charles Financial Services, Inc. (previously defined as 79 "JW Charles") pursuant to the terms of a Financial Consulting Agreement dated as of November 1, 1994 between the Company and Corporate Management Group, Inc. The JW Charles Warrant entitled the holder to purchase an aggregate of 250,000 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $2.00 per share, subject to adjustment, at any time through November 3, 1999. Pursuant to the adjustment provisions, the JW Charles Warrant presently entitles the holder to purchase an aggregate of 331,126 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.51 per share. The JW Charles Warrant contains demand registration rights during the exercise period and piggyback registration rights for a period of five years. For a description of pending litigation commenced against the Company by JW Charles, see "Legal Proceedings." Commonwealth Warrants On August 21, 1996, in connection with the Company's Class C Offering, the Company entered into the Placement Agent's Common Stock Warrant Agreement and the Consultant's Common Stock Warrant Agreement with Commonwealth Associates (previously defined as "Commonwealth"). (Together, the Placement Agent's Common Stock Warrant Agreement and the Consultant's Common Stock Warrant Agreement are collectively referred to as the "Commonwealth Warrant Agreements"). The Commonwealth Warrant Agreements are substantially identical except that the Commonwealth Placement Agent's Common Stock Warrant Agreement and related Warrant Certificate entitle Commonwealth to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock and the Consultant's Warrant Agreement and related Warrant Certificate entitle Commonwealth to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock (previously defined as the "Commonwealth Warrants"). The Commonwealth Warrants entitle Commonwealth to purchase up to an aggregate of 750,000 shares of Common Stock at any time from March 1, 1997 until August 20, 2001 at any exercise price per share of $2.50, subject to adjustment. At its option, Commonwealth may effect a "cashless exercise" during the warrant exercise period by exchanging the Commonwealth Warrants for a specified number of shares of Common Stock (the "Total Share Number") less a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the produce of the Total Share Number and the then-applicable exercise price by (ii) the market price (as defined) of a share of Common Stock. The holders of the Commonwealth Warrants and/or shares issuable upon exercise of the Commonwealth Warrants (the "Commonwealth Shares") have piggyback registration rights through August 20, 2003 and demand registration rights from August 20, 1997 through August 1, 2003; provided, however, that in the event the Company does not file a registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the 10% Notes within ninety-five (95) days of a request of a majority of the 10% Noteholders, the demand registration rights accelerate from August 20, 1997 to the 96th day following such demand. In the event the Company has not used its best efforts to file a registration statement within ninety-five (95) days of receipt of demand therefor by the 10% Noteholders or within thirty (30) days after demand by Commonwealth upon acceleration of its demand registration rights, the Company will be required to repurchase any Commonwealth Shares at the higher of the market price (as defined) on the date of notice of demand for registration or the expiration of the period by which the Company must have filed the registration statement and must repurchase any outstanding Commonwealth Warrants at the market price of the Common Stock less the exercise price of the Commonwealth Warrants. 80 Four M Options On February 21, 1996, Four M International, Ltd. ("Four M"), a principal shareholder of the Company granted certain options exercisable commencing July 1, 1996 (subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions) to purchase 3,915,570 shares of Common Stock. Henry Toh, a director of the Company, is one of the two directors of Four M. The exercise price of $1.79 per share represents the lesser of 200% of the average of the closing bid and ask price per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) business days preceding July 1, 1996 or $1.79 per share. Commonwealth and affiliates or associates thereof received the right to purchase 545,285 shares of Common Stock prior to December 31, 1996 and 537,500 shares of Common Stock prior to December 31, 1997. Benchmark received the right to purchase 545,285 shares of Common Stock prior to December 31, 1996 and 537,500 shares prior to December 1997.

Culbreth (25,000 Options) and John Beardmore (25,000 options). In August 1996 the Four M Options were amended to provide that in the event that $200,000 in principal amount (i.e., exercise proceeds) of the Four M Options have been exercised prior to December 31, 1996, the exercise period of the remaining Four M Options exercisable during 1996 (the "1996 Four M Options") will be extended to September 6, 1997 and the exercise price would be increased by 4% of the then current exercise price for each 30 day period or portion thereof commencing January 1, 1997 in which the remainder of the 1996 Four M Options are not exercised. The shares of Common Stock owned by Four M are subject of a lockup agreement with Commonwealth from and after the termination of the option agreements and until 12 months from September 6, 1996; provided, however, that to the extent Commonwealth releases more than 300,000 shares in the aggregate on behalf of any affiliate or associated person of Commonwealth, any officer or director of the Company or its subsidiaries or Benchmark, Commonwealth shall release a number of Four M Shares equal to the same percentage as the number of shares owned by such person. In addition, each of the Four M Option holders has executed a lock-up agreement with Commonwealth for a period of twelve (12) months from September 6, 1996. Babcock Options On February 21, 1996 R.

The option became effective February 7, 1996 and continued through February 11, 1996, unless extended. The consideration for the purchase was $485,000. The Shareholders' Agreement between Four M, WCC, WCI and CIB was terminated concurrent with the sale by the Kanter Group by agreement among the parties to the Shareholders' Agreement. Holders of the Kanter Option Shares have entered into lock-up agreements with Commonwealth for a period of twelve (12) months from September 6, 1996. Cook Option On October 19, 1995, Scott Cook loaned the principal amount of $200,000 to ILINK, Ltd., one-half of which was guaranteed by the Company. The amount guaranteed by the Company was secured under a Security Agreement pursuant to which G Net Enterprises, Inc., the general partner of I-Link, Ltd. granted a security interest in certain assets of I-Link, Ltd. In addition, the Company issued to Mr. Cook a Common Stock Purchase Option to Purchase Common Stock for the purchase of 100,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share commencing January 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996. The Cook Option provides for piggyback registration rights for three years beginning January 1, 1996. On April 24, 1996, Mr. Cook transferred 25,000 of the Cook Options to R.C. Culbreth, 25,000 to John Beardmore and 25,000 to Watts Texas Limited Partners. Mr. Cook has agreed to refrain from exercising the options and waived the right to have the shares issuable on exercise of the Cook Option reserved until approved by stockholders of the Company of an increase in the number of authorized shares in an amount sufficient to accommodate an adjustment of the Conversion Price of the Class C Preferred Stock. E&M Warrants In connection with a loan to the Company in June 1996 of $250,000 by E&M RP Trust, the Company issued the E&M Warrants to purchase 80,000 shares of Common Stock to E&M.

Mr. Mandarino has entered into a lock-up agreement with Commonwealth for a period of twelve (12) months from September 6, 1996. Anti-Takeover Measures The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws contain provisions that could discourage potential takeover attempts and prevent shareholders from changing the Company's management. The Articles of Incorporation provide for a classified Board of Directors and that vacancies on the Board of Directors shall be filled only by a majority of the remaining directors then in office. In addition, the Bylaws provide, among other things, that no proposal by a stockholder shall be presented for vote at a special or annual meeting of stockholders unless such stockholder shall, not later than the close of business on the fifth day following the date on which notice of the meeting is first given to stockholders, provide the Board of Directors or the Secretary of the Company with written notice of intention to present a proposal for action at the forthcoming meeting of stockholders, which notice shall include the name and address of such stockholder, the number of voting securities he or she holds of record and which he or she holds beneficially, the text of the proposal to be presented at the meeting and a statement in support of the proposal. Any stockholder may make any other proposal at an annual meeting or special meeting of stockholders and the same may be discussed and considered, but unless stated in writing and filed with the Board of Directors or the Secretary prior to the date set forth above, such proposal shall be laid over for action at an adjourned, special, or annual meeting of the stockholders taking place sixty (60) days or more thereafter. This provision shall not prevent the consideration and approval or disapproval at the annual meeting of reports of officers, directors, and committees; but in connection with such reports, no new business proposed by a stockholder (acting in such capacity) shall be acted upon at such annual meeting unless stated and filed as described above.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 - Business Nature of business The Company is in two businesses. Domestically the Company is a provider of diagnostic and clinical services to healthcare facilities and directly to patients both with its own equipment and equipment of other entities under management contracts. In China, the Company sells and services used medical equipment. Note 2 - Accounting policies A summary of significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows: Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Medcross, Inc. (the Company) and the following subsidiaries: - Medcross Imaging, Ltd., a limited partnership, provides mobile magnetic resonance imaging services to healthcare facilities. The Company is the sole general partner of the partnership and had a 81.75% ownership interest as of December 31, 1995 and 1994. - Waters Edge Scanning Associates, Inc., a Florida corporation, provides magnetic resonance imaging services. This wholly owned subsidiary acquired the assets of Waters Edge Scanning Associates, Ltd. and its general partner, Florida Medical Enterprises, Inc. on June 1, 1993. - Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay, Inc., a Florida corporation, provides mobile ultrasound services. This wholly owned subsidiary began operations in October 1994 after completion of an acquisition of the 75% ownership interest not previously owned by the Company. Prior to that time, the Company recorded its share of income or loss from the 25% ownership interest on the equity method. On May 1, 1995, this subsidiary distributed all of its assets net of liabilities to the Company. All of the assets of this subsidiary, except cash, were contributed to Waters Edge Scanning Associates, Inc. - Medcross Asia, Ltd., a Hong Kong corporation, was formed by the Company as a wholly owned subsidiary in 1993. This corporation is seeking investment and equipment trading opportunities in the Far East. - Shenyang Medcross Huamei Medical Equipment Company, Ltd. (SMHME), a People's Republic of China (PRC) corporation formed in January 1994, sells and services used computerized tomography (CT) equipment in the Shenyang Province of the PRC. The Company has a 51% ownership interest in SMHME. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. F-7 MEDCROSS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 2 - Accounting policies - continued Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conforming with generally accepted accounting principals requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair value of financial instruments To meet the reporting requirements of FASB Statement No. 107 ("Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments"), the Company calculates the fair value of financial instruments and includes this additional information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the book value of those financial instruments. When the fair value is equal to the book value, no additional disclosure is made. The Company uses quoted market prices whenever available to calculate these fair values. When quoted market prices are not available, the Company uses standard pricing models for various types of financial instruments which takes into account the present value of future cash flows. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less. Inventory Inventories consist of used and refurbished computerized tomography scanners held for sale in China. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the specific identification method. Property and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the declining balance method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, four to nine years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gains or losses on disposals are credited or charged to operations. Investment in unconsolidated subsidiaries During 1995, the Company sold its interest in an unconsolidated subsidiary for $28,000, which was a $78,750 investment in a Florida partnership formed in February 1993. This investment was accounted for under the cost method of accounting. The Company had a 7.5% equity and profits interest in this partnership. The partnership's primary business was the sole shareholder of a Cayman Islands corporation which discontinued operations during the second quarter of 1994. As a result, the Company recorded a $71,250 writedown of the value of the investment during 1994. Until October 1, 1994, the Company had an interest in another unconsolidated subsidiary, Urological Ultrasound Services of Tampa Bay (UUSTB). This subsidiary was accounted for under the equity method of accounting, whereby the cost of the investment was adjusted for the allocable share of the undistributed income or losses of the subsidiary. The Company had a 25% equity and profits interest in UUSTB before it purchased the remaining ownership interest. At that time, the partnership was dissolved and a new company was formed (See Note 5). F-8 MEDCROSS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 2 - Accounting policies - continued During 1995, the Company invested $6,250 in a joint venture formed in October 1995. The Company has an 18.75% interest in this joint venture and it is accounted for under the cost method of accounting. The joint venture was formed to determine the feasibility of the commercialization of telemedicine. Intangible assets Organization cost is amortized on the straight-line basis over a period of sixty months. Loan costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the loans (36 months to 60 months). Syndication and other issuance costs incurred with respect to equity offerings of the Company and sale of limited partnerships interests are deferred and offset against the proceeds of the offerings at closing. Goodwill is amortized on the straight-line basis over a period of twenty to twenty-five years. Revenue recognition The Company recognizes revenue from health care services at the time services are performed net of contractual allowances based on agreements with third party payers. The Company records revenue from equipment sales when installation is completed. Advance deposits received prior to installation are recorded as a current liability. Warranty liability Equipment sales are generally accompanied by a service warranty. Expected future product warranty costs are recorded as an expense and liability when the product is sold. Foreign currency translation The functional currency for the Company's foreign operations is the applicable local currency. The translation from the applicable foreign currencies to U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for income statement items using a weighted average exchange rate for the period. The gains or losses, net of applicable deferred income taxes, resulting from such translations are included in stockholders' equity. Some transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries are made in currencies different from their own. Gains and losses from these transactions are generally included in income as they occur. Net foreign currency transaction gains or losses are not material for any of the periods presented. The effect of foreign currency translation on cash flows in 1994 is primarily the difference between the capital contribution exchange rate stipulated in the joint venture agreement and the exchange rate at the time of the contribution. Income taxes The Company records deferred taxes in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." The Statement requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and the amounts at which they are carried in the financial statements based upon the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. F-9 MEDCROSS, INC.

The proceeds of such offering were used to pay outstanding accounts payable and other debts of I-Link. In August 1996 $25,000 in the aggregate of these notes were converted into 350,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock and the remaining principal balances plus interest were paid. In addition, the Company assumed notes payable to limited partners of ILINK, Ltd. in the amount of $643,333 and to other parties in the amount of $104,575. In June 1996, the Company issued promissory notes in the amount of $375,000. These promissory notes were due on the earlier of December 31, 1996 or the receipt of at least $4.8 million from debt or equity financings, with interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The proceeds of the promissory notes were used for I-Link working capital purposes. These notes were paid in full in September 1996. Simultaneous with the closing of the Company's offering of Class C Preferred Stock, the Company issued an aggregate of $717,000 in principal amount of Convertible Promissory Notes. Each Convertible Note is due on April 1, 1997 with interest at the rate of 8% percent per annum. The entirety of the unpaid principal amount of the Convertible Notes will be automatically converted into shares of Class C Preferred Stock at the rate of $60 per share of Class C Preferred Stock. The Convertible Notes are convertible into an aggregate of 11,950 shares of Class C Preferred Stock. The proceeds of the promissory notes were used for I-Link working capital purposes. Note 6 - Commitments and Contingencies The remaining portion of the I-Link common stock purchase price placed in escrow will be released upon the satisfaction of the contingency described in Note 2 above. The fair market value of the Common Stock at the time of its release from escrow will be charged to goodwill and amortized over the remaining life of the goodwill. F-29 Note 7 - Earnings Per Common Share Earnings per common share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents consisting of stock options and warrants, convertible debt, and convertible preferred stock. Fully diluted earnings per share are not presented because it approximates earnings per common share. Note 8 - Lease Commitments I-Link leases approximately 1,500 square feet of space, which space housed its corporate offices in Austin, Texas. Such lease has a term of three years, which is scheduled to expire on November 30, 1997 but which I-Link is negotiating to terminate. Pursuant to the terms of such lease, I-Link pays rent on a monthly basis of $1,740. I-Link has recently entered into a ten-month lease for 5,000 square feet of space in Austin, Texas, which housed its corporate offices. Pursuant to such lease, I-Link will pay rent of $5,000 per month. I-Link also leases several other spaces to house its POPs throughout the United States. Such spaces vary in size and are rented on a month-to-month basis. I-Link currently leases and occupies approximately 6,500 square feet of office space, in Draper Utah, pursuant to a commercial lease dated May 21, 1996, with an unrelated third party. The initial lease term is five years commencing on July 8, 1996 at a base rent of $5,451 per month. In addition, I-Link will be responsible for certain improvements to such facilities above $97,120. In September 1996, I-Link entered into a second lease for approximately 14,000 square feet of space from the same landlord in an adjacent building pursuant to a commercial lease dated September 11, 1996. I-Link's offices and network operations facilities will be moved to this space upon its completion. The term of the lease is seven years commencing November 5, 1996, subject to the right to extend for an additional five years. The initial base rent is approximately $11,650 per month. In October 1996, I-Link delivered $214,000 in certificates of deposit to the landlord as a security deposit under the second lease. When the Company is able to occupy the new office space and commences lease payments under the second lease, it is management's intent to sublet the office space under the first lease. In September 1996, I-Link entered into a two year equipment lease with IBM Credit Corporation relating to the financing of an aggregate of $3.5 million worth of equipment purchases necessary to build the I-Link network. As a condition of that equipment lease, I-Link obtained from Zions First National Bank, a standby letter of credit totaling $1.575 million to the benefit of IBM Credit Corporation. In order to obtain this letter of credit, I-Link deposited $1.575 million into a certificate of deposit to be held at Zions First National Bank, until the IBM Credit Corporation obligation is satisfied. The certificate of deposit bears interest which is payable to the Company, and will be released to I-Link when the lease expires. At the end of the lease, at I-Link's option, the equipment secured by the lease can be repurchased at fair market value. I-Link is obligated to pay approximately $450,000 every quarter. Through September 1996, I-Link financed approximately $742,096 of equipment through IBM Credit Corporation. Under the terms of those credit arrangements, I-Link is obligated to pay approximately $60,000 every quarter.

Note 10 - Subsequent Events In October 1996, in conjunction with I-Link's Utah lease of office and network operations facilities, I-Link deposited in escrow with Zions First National Bank the sum of $214,000 in the form of four separate certificates of deposit. One CD has a four year maturity, the second a three year maturity, the third a two year maturity, and the fourth a one year maturity. As each CD reaches maturity, and provided I-Link is not in default under the lease, the money in the mature CD is released to I-Link. So long as these CD's are held in escrow, they earn interest at varying rates which is paid to I-Link.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party to a proceeding by reason of the fact that he was or is an officer, director, employee or agent of the corporation against liability incurred in connection with such proceeding. Such person must have acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. With respect to any criminal proceeding, such person must have had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Any such indemnification may only be made upon a determination by the corporation that such indemnification is proper because the person met the applicable standard of conduct. The Florida Business Corporation Act provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder is not exclusive; provided, however, indemnification is not permitted to be made on behalf of any such person if a judgment or final adjudication establishes (i) a violation of the criminal law unless such person had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; (ii) such person derived an improper personal benefit from the transaction; (iii) as to any director such proceeding arose from an unlawful distribution under Section 607.0834; or (iv) willful misconduct or a conscious disregard for the best interests of the corporation in a proceeding by the corporation or a shareholder. The Company's By-Laws provide that the Company shall indemnify any such person to the fullest extent provided by law and empowers the Company to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such person. The Company previously entered into indemnification agreements in 1988 with certain officers and directors of the Company for indemnification against expenses (including attorneys' fees, through all proceedings, trials, and appeals), judgments, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any threatened, pending, or contemplated action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, arising from any actual or alleged breach of duty, neglect, effort, or other action taken or omitted, solely in the capacity as an officer and/or a director of the Company; provided that no indemnification will be made in respect of any acts or omissions (a) involving gross negligence or willful misconduct, (b) involving libel or slander, or (c) based upon or attributable to gaining, directly or indirectly, any profit or advantage to which he was not legally entitled. INSOFAR AS INDEMNIFICATION FOR LIABILITIES ARISING UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT MAY BE PERMITTED TO DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR PERSONS CONTROLLING THE COMPANY PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS, THE COMPANY HAS BEEN INFORMED THAT IN THE OPINION OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, SUCH INDEMNIFICATION IS AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY AS EXPRESSED IN THE SECURITIES ACT AND IS THEREFORE UNENFORCEABLE. II-1 Other Arrangements - - ------------------ The Company maintains a "claims made" officers and directors liability insurance policy with coverage limits of $3,000,000 and a maximum $100,000 deductible amount for each claim. Item 25. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

The Registrant has issued the following securities during the past three years: In November 1994, the Company issued a Common Stock Purchase Warrant to J.W.

Pursuant to a Consulting Agreement dated as of August 6, 1995 between the Company and Timothy R.

The II-2 holders of the notes converted $5,000 of the principal amount of the notes to 70,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively, in June 1996. In February 1996, the Company completed a private placement of $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of convertible promissory notes (the "10% Notes"). Up to $1,250 of each $50,000 in principal amount of the 10% Note was convertible at any time at the option of the holder, into an aggregate of 350,000 shares of Common Stock at the rate of approximately $.0714 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments; and such principal amount was converted to Common Stock in August 1996. Commonwealth Associates served as the placement agent for the offering. On September 6, 1996, the Company closed a private placement of 240,000 shares of Class C Preferred Stock, $10 par value per share. In addition, the Company issued $717,000 of principal amount of Convertible Promissory Notes payable on April 1, 1997 (the "Maturity Date") and bearing interest at 8% per annum (previously defined as the "Convertible Notes"). The unpaid principal amount of a Convertible Note will be automatically converted into shares of Class C Preferred Stock at any time prior to the close of business on the Maturity Date at the rate of $60 per share of Class C Preferred Stock upon certain conditions being met. Commonwealth Associates (previously defined and hereinafter referred to as "Commonwealth"), acted as the placement agent for the Class C Offering. The Company issued to Commonwealth Placement Agent Warrants to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock and Consultant's Warrants to purchase up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock (together previously defined as the "Commonwealth Warrants"). The Commonwealth Warrants will be exercisable for five (5) years commencing March 1997 at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, subject to adjustment. In April 1996, pursuant to an employment agreement, the Company agreed to grant to John Edwards, President of the Company, an option to purchase 1 million shares of Common Stock of the Company. In consideration for the amendment of the employment agreement, effective August 21, 1996, the Company agreed to grant Mr. Edwards options to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock. In June 1996, the Company completed a private placement of $375,000 in principal amount of Non-Negotiable 8% Promissory Notes and Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase 120,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share.

In August 1996, the Company agreed to issue to William H. Flury and John W. Edwards, officers of the company and/or ILINK, warrants to purchase 5,000 shares and 25,000 shares, respectively, in connection with loans to ILINK. In October 1996, pursuant to an employment agreement, the Company agreed to grant to each of Karl S. Ryser, Jr. and William H. Flury, officers of ILINK, options to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The Company believes that the transactions set forth above were exempt from registration with the Commission pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. Except as disclosed above, no broker-dealer or underwriter was involved in the II-3 foregoing transactions. All certificates representing such securities have been appropriately legended. The February, June and September 1996 placements were made in reliance upon a claim of exemption pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D. Additionally, the participants in the February, June and September 1996 private placements were accredited investors. Item 27. Exhibits.

Item 28. Undertakings (a) Rule 415 Offering. ----------------- The undersigned Registrant will: (1) File, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post- effective amendment to this registration statement to: (i) Include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and (iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution. (2) For determining liability under the Securities Act treat each post- effective amendment as a new registration statement of the Securities offered, and the offering of the Securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering. (3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the Securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering. II-9 (e) Indemnification. --------------- Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions referred to in Item 22 of this Registration Statement, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the Securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. (f) Rule 430A. --------- The undersigned Registrant will: (1) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the small business issuer under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this Registration Statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective. (2) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each post- effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the Securities offered in the Registration Statement, and that offering of the Securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those Securities.

EX-4.M 2 FORMS OF CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES EXHIBIT 4(m) THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN THE SUBJECT OF REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND HAS BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE ON EXEMPTIONS FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT AND SUCH LAWS. THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER SUCH SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE --------------------------- $57,000 St. Petersburg, Florida September 6, 1996 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Medcross, Inc., a Florida corporation (hereinafter referred to as the "Maker"), hereby promises to pay to Jeffries International, Ltd. (the "Payee") at 46 New Broad Street, London EC2M 1JD or at such other place as the holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of Fifty-Seven Thousand Dollars ($57,000) in one installment due on April 1, 1997 (the "Maturity Date"), together with interest from and after the date hereof at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum computed on the unpaid principal balance. Interest shall be paid by Maker to the Payee quarterly on November 15, February 15, May 15 and August 15 until the principal amount of the Note is converted or paid by the Company. By acceptance of this 8% Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note"), the Payee represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that he, she or it will abide by and be bound by its terms. 1. Prepayment and Notices. The unpaid principal balance outstanding under this ---------------------- Note may be prepaid in part or in full by the Maker without penalty, upon thirty (30) days notice to the Payee stating the repayment amount and repayment date (the "Repayment Date"); provided, however, that as a condition precedent to prepayment hereunder, the Maker shall have effected an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized capital stock of the Maker and shall have designated a sufficient amount of Class C Preferred Stock (as hereinafter defined) so as to accommodate conversion as set forth in Section 2 hereof. Any such notice must specify that the Payee may exercise its conversion rights prior to the Repayment Date. 2. Conversion. ---------- (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2(b) hereof, the entirety of the unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be automatically converted at any time prior to the close of business on the Maturity Date in the manner and on the terms hereinafter set forth, into shares of Class C Convertible Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Class C Preferred Stock") of the Maker at the rate of Sixty Dollars ($60.00) per share of Class C Preferred Stock (the "Conversion Price"), subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4 hereof, upon the amendment of the Maker's Articles of Incorporation to increase its authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock, $10.00 par value, to at least 2,000,000 shares and the authorized number of shares of Common Stock, $.007 par value, to at least 50,000,000 shares (the "Articles Amendment") and the designation by the Maker of additional Class C Preferred Stock in an amount sufficient to accommodate conversion of this Note (the "Designation"). (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note to the contrary, upon receipt of notice of the Maker's intent to prepay part or all of the principal amount hereunder, the Payee may elect to exercise the Conversion Right and convert pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof all or a portion (as set forth in subsection (a) hereof) of the amount of unpaid principal which the Maker intends to prepay, up to the close of business on the last business day before the stated Repayment Date. 3. Conversion Procedure. Upon completion by the Maker of the Articles -------------------- Amendment and the Designation, the Maker shall promptly notify the holder of this Note that conversion of this Note has occurred and the date thereof (the "Automatic Conversion Date"). The holder shall thereupon surrender this Note to the Maker at the principal office of the Maker. The Conversion Right set forth in Section 2(b) of this Note may be exercised by the Payee by the surrender of this Note (along with the conversion form attached hereto duly executed) to the Maker at the principal office of the Maker. Risk of loss prior to surrender of this Note shall be borne by the Payee. Consequently, hand delivery with written acknowledgement of receipt by the Maker or registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, is the preferred mode of delivery. Conversion pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery of the conversion notice is actually made or, if earlier, at the expiration of five calendar days after being sent to the Maker by the Payee by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with postage thereon fully prepaid (the "Conversion Date"). As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Maker shall issue and deliver to the Payee certificates representing the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock to which the Payee is entitled together with a check for the accrued interest to the Automatic Conversion Date or the Conversion Date, as the case may be. The Maker shall not be obligated to issue certificates representing shares of Class C Preferred Stock in the name of any party other than the Payee. The person or entity in whose name the certificates representing the shares of Class C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion hereof shall be deemed to have become a holder of record on the next succeeding day on which the transfer books are open, but the Conversion Price shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date. The Maker covenants that all securities which may be issued upon exercise of the Conversion Right will, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable and free of all taxes, liens and charges caused or created by the Maker with respect to the issuance thereof. 4. Adjustments. The number and kind of securities which may be received upon ----------- the exercise of the Conversion Right and the Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events, as follows: (a) Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Maker shall at any time or ----------------------------- from time to time after the date hereof effect a subdivision of its outstanding shares of Class C Preferred Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion proportionately increase, and conversely, if the Maker shall at any time or from time to time after the date 2 hereof combine its outstanding shares of Class C Preferred Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this section shall become effective upon the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. (b) Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event that the Maker ----------------------------------- shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Class C Preferred Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Class C Preferred Stock, then and in each such event, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event that such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction: (i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of the total number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date and the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date shall have been -------- ------- fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this subsection as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions. (c) Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event that the Maker at --------------------------------- any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Class C Preferred Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Maker other than shares of Class C Preferred Stock, then and in each such event provisions shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall receive, upon conversion of this Note, in addition to the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Maker which such holder would have received had its Note been converted into shares of Class C Preferred Stock on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Conversion Date, retained such securities (together with any distributions payable thereon during such period) receivable by the holder as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this section with respect to the rights of the holder of the Note. (d) Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the shares of ------------------------------------------ Class C Preferred Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of capital stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend 3 provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for in subsection (e) below), then and in each such event, the holder of this Note shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of shares of capital stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change, as the holder of the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock into which this Note might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein. (e) Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets. If, at ------------------------------------------------------- any time or from time to time, there shall be a capital reorganization of the shares of Class C Preferred Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this section) or a merger or consolidation of the Maker with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Maker's properties and assets to any other person or entity, then as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of capital stock or other securities or property of the Maker, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or sale, to which the holder of shares of Class C Preferred Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this section with respect to the rights of the holder of this Note after the reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this section (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock receivable upon conversion of this Note) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent hereto as may be practicable. (f) Minimum Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set ------------------ forth herein, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made in an amount equal to less than one cent ($.01), but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to one cent ($.01) or more. (g) Certificate of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment ------------------------- or readjustment of the applicable Conversion Price pursuant to this section, the Maker shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to the holder of this Note a certificate, signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Chief Financial Officer, setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. (h) Notices of Record Date. If and in the event that: ---------------------- (i) the Maker shall set a record date for the purpose of entitling the holders of shares of Class C Preferred Stock to receive a dividend, or any other distribution, payable otherwise than in cash; 4 (ii) the Maker shall set a record date for the purpose of entitling the holders of shares of Class C Preferred Stock to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or to receive any other rights; (iii) there shall occur any capital reorganization of the Maker, reclassification of the shares of capital stock of the Maker (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding shares of Class C Preferred Stock), consolidation or merger of the Maker with or into another corporation, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Maker; or (iv) there shall occur a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Maker; then, and in any such case, the Maker shall cause to be mailed to the holder of record of this Note, at least thirty (30) days prior to the dates hereinafter specified, a notice stating the date: (A) which has been set as the record date for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, or rights; or (B) on which such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the record date as of which the holder of record shall be entitled to exchange this Note for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. 5. Reservation. The Maker covenants that the Maker will use its best efforts ----------- to cause the Articles Amendment and to designate a sufficient number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock prior to the period within which the Conversion Right may be exercised to provide for the exercise of the Conversion Right in full. 6. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Class C Preferred Stock shall be ----------------- issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional shares of Class C Preferred Stock to which the Payee would otherwise be entitled, the Maker shall pay an amount equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the fair value of one share of Class C Preferred Stock on the Conversion Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Maker. 7. Miscellaneous. ------------- (a) Restricted Securities. By acceptance hereof, the Payee --------------------- understands and agrees that this Note and the shares of Class C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion hereof are "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Maker in a transaction not involving a public offering and have not been the subject of registration under the Securities Act and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold in the absence of registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. The Payee hereby represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. 5 (b) Further Limitations on Disposition. Except as otherwise provided ---------------------------------- herein, this Note may not be negotiated, assigned or transferred by Payee. The Payee further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of this Note (or of the securities issuable upon conversion hereof) unless and until: (i) there is then in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; (ii) such disposition is made in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act; or (iii) the Payee shall have notified the Maker of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Maker with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and the Payee shall have furnished the Maker with an opinion of counsel, which opinion of counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Maker, that such disposition will not require registration under the Securities Act and will be in compliance with applicable state securities laws. (c) Legends. It is understood that this Note and each certificate ------- evidencing shares of Class C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion hereof (or evidencing any other securities issued with respect thereto pursuant to any stock split, stock dividend, merger or other form of reorganization or recapitalization) shall bear the legends (in addition to any legends which may be required in the opinion of the Maker's counsel by the securities laws of the state where the Payee is located) set forth on the first page of this Note. 8. Presentment. Except as set forth herein, Maker waives presentment, demand ----------- and presentation for payment, notice of nonpayment and dishonor, protest and notice of protest and expressly agrees that this Note or any payment hereunder may be extended from time to time by the Payee without in any way affecting the liability of Maker. 9.

All such communications shall be addressed to the Payee of record at its address appearing on the books of the Maker. Service of any such communication made only by mail shall be deemed complete on the date of actual delivery as shown by the addressee's registry or certification receipt or at the expiration of the third (3rd) business day after the date of mailing, whichever is earlier in time. (b) Notices to the Maker. Whenever any provision of this Note -------------------- requires a notice to be given or a request to be made to the Maker by the Payee or the holder of any other security of the Maker obtained in connection with a recapitalization, merger, dividend or other event 6 affecting this Note, then and in each such case, any such notice or request shall be in writing and shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested with postage thereon fully prepaid to the Maker at its principal place of business. No notice given or request made hereunder shall be valid unless signed by the Payee of this Note or other holder giving such notice or request (or, in the case of a notice or request by Holders of a specified percent in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes, unless signed by each Holder of a Note whose Note has been counted in constituting the requisite percentage of Notes required to give such notice or make such request). 10. Events of Default. ----------------- (a) Each of the following shall constitute an event of default (an "Event of Default") hereunder: (i) the failure to pay when due any principal or interest hereunder; (ii) the failure of the Maker to effect the Articles Amendment within seven (7) months of the date of issuance of this Note; (iii) the violation by the Maker of any covenant or agreement contained in this Note and the continuance of such violation for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice from the Payee to the Maker of such failure; (iv) any change in control of the Maker which the Board of Directors of the Maker deems to be hostile or unfriendly; (v) the assignment for the benefit of creditors by the Maker; (vi) the application for the appointment of a receiver or liquidator for the Maker or for property of the Maker; (vii) the filing of a petition in bankruptcy by or against the Maker; (viii) the issuance of an attachment or the entry of a judgment against the Maker in excess of $500,000; (ix) a default by the Maker with respect to any other material indebtedness or obligation; (x) the making or sending of a notice of an intended bulk sale by the Maker; or (xi) the termination of existence, dissolution or insolvency of the Maker. Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing Events of Default, this Note shall be considered to be in default and the entire unpaid principal sum hereof, together with accrued interest, shall at the option of the holder hereof become immediately due and payable in full. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which remains uncured as set forth herein and the placement of this Note in the hands of an attorney for collection, the Maker agrees to pay reasonable collection costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and interest from the date of the default at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum computed on the unpaid principal balance. (b) The Payee may waive any Event of Default hereunder. Such waiver shall be evidenced by written notice or other document specifying the Event or Events of Default being waived and shall be binding on all existing or subsequent Payees under this Note. 11.

The Conversion Right set forth in Section 2(b) of this Note may be exercised by the Payee by the surrender of this Note (along with the conversion form attached hereto duly executed) to the Maker at the principal office of the Maker. Risk of loss prior to surrender of this Note shall be borne by the Payee. Consequently, hand delivery with written acknowledgement of receipt by the Maker or registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, is the preferred mode of delivery. Conversion pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery of the conversion notice is actually made or, if earlier, at the expiration of five calendar days after being sent to the Maker by the Payee by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with postage thereon fully prepaid (the "Conversion Date"). As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Maker shall issue and deliver to the Payee certificates representing the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock to which the Payee is entitled together with a check for the accrued interest to the Automatic Conversion Date or the Conversion Date, as the case may be. The Maker shall not be obligated to issue certificates representing shares of Class C Preferred Stock in the name of any party other than the Payee. The person or entity in whose name the certificates representing the shares of Class C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion hereof shall be deemed to have become a holder of record on the next succeeding day on which the transfer books are open, but the Conversion Price shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date. The Maker covenants that all securities which may be issued upon exercise of the Conversion Right will, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable and free of all taxes, liens and charges caused or created by the Maker with respect to the issuance thereof. 4. Adjustments. The number and kind of securities which may be received upon ----------- the exercise of the Conversion Right and the Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events, as follows: (a) Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Maker shall at any time or ----------------------------- from time to time after the date hereof effect a subdivision of its outstanding shares of Class C Preferred Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion proportionately increase, and conversely, if the Maker shall at any time or from time to time after the date 2 hereof combine its outstanding shares of Class C Preferred Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this section shall become effective upon the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. (b) Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event that the Maker ----------------------------------- shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Class C Preferred Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Class C Preferred Stock, then and in each such event, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event that such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction: (i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of the total number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date and the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date shall have been -------- ------- fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this subsection as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions. (c) Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event that the Maker at --------------------------------- any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Class C Preferred Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Maker other than shares of Class C Preferred Stock, then and in each such event provisions shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall receive, upon conversion of this Note, in addition to the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Maker which such holder would have received had its Note been converted into shares of Class C Preferred Stock on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Conversion Date, retained such securities (together with any distributions payable thereon during such period) receivable by the holder as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this section with respect to the rights of the holder of the Note. (d) Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the shares of ------------------------------------------ Class C Preferred Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of capital stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend 3 provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for in subsection (e) below), then and in each such event, the holder of this Note shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of shares of capital stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change, as the holder of the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock into which this Note might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein. (e) Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets. If, at ------------------------------------------------------- any time or from time to time, there shall be a capital reorganization of the shares of Class C Preferred Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this section) or a merger or consolidation of the Maker with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Maker's properties and assets to any other person or entity, then as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of capital stock or other securities or property of the Maker, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or sale, to which the holder of shares of Class C Preferred Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this section with respect to the rights of the holder of this Note after the reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this section (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock receivable upon conversion of this Note) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent hereto as may be practicable. (f) Minimum Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set ------------------ forth herein, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made in an amount equal to less than one cent ($.01), but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to one cent ($.01) or more. (g) Certificate of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment ------------------------- or readjustment of the applicable Conversion Price pursuant to this section, the Maker shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to the holder of this Note a certificate, signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Chief Financial Officer, setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. (h) Notices of Record Date. If and in the event that: ---------------------- (i) the Maker shall set a record date for the purpose of entitling the holders of shares of Class C Preferred Stock to receive a dividend, or any other distribution, payable otherwise than in cash; 4 (ii) the Maker shall set a record date for the purpose of entitling the holders of shares of Class C Preferred Stock to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or to receive any other rights; (iii) there shall occur any capital reorganization of the Maker, reclassification of the shares of capital stock of the Maker (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding shares of Class C Preferred Stock), consolidation or merger of the Maker with or into another corporation, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Maker; or (iv) there shall occur a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Maker; then, and in any such case, the Maker shall cause to be mailed to the holder of record of this Note, at least thirty (30) days prior to the dates hereinafter specified, a notice stating the date: (A) which has been set as the record date for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, or rights; or (B) on which such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the record date as of which the holder of record shall be entitled to exchange this Note for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. 5. Reservation. The Maker covenants that the Maker will use its best efforts ----------- to cause the Articles Amendment and to designate a sufficient number of shares of Class C Preferred Stock prior to the period within which the Conversion Right may be exercised to provide for the exercise of the Conversion Right in full. 6. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Class C Preferred Stock shall be ----------------- issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional shares of Class C Preferred Stock to which the Payee would otherwise be entitled, the Maker shall pay an amount equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the fair value of one share of Class C Preferred Stock on the Conversion Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Maker. 7. Miscellaneous. ------------- (a) Restricted Securities. By acceptance hereof, the Payee --------------------- understands and agrees that this Note and the shares of Class C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion hereof are "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Maker in a transaction not involving a public offering and have not been the subject of registration under the Securities Act and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold in the absence of registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.

THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER SUCH SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. NON-NEGOTIABLE 10% CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE ---------------------------------------------- $50,000 St. Petersburg, Florida February 9, 1996 Series II FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Medcross, Inc., a Florida corporation (hereinafter referred to as the "Maker"), hereby promises to pay to Joseph Wong (the "Payee") at 3227 Bennett Street North, St. Petersburg, Florida 33713 or at such other place as the holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of Fifty-Thousand Dollars ($50,000) in one installment due upon the earlier of: (i) February 28, 1997 or such later date as extended by the Payee as set forth below (the "Maturity Date"); or (ii) the Maker's receipt of proceeds of at least Two Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,400,000) from one or more equity or debt financing conducted by the Maker (the "Accelerated Maturity Date"), together with interest from and after the date hereof at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum computed on the unpaid principal balance. Interest shall be paid by Maker to the Payee on the Maturity Date or the Accelerated Maturity Date, as applicable. By acceptance of this Non-Negotiable 10% Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note"), the Payee represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that he, she or it will abide by and be bound by its terms. 1. Prepayment and Notices. The unpaid principal balance outstanding under this ---------------------- Note may be prepaid in part or in full by the Maker without penalty, upon thirty (30) days notice to the Payee stating the repayment amount and repayment date (the "Repayment Date"). The Maker must provide notice five business days prior to an Accelerated Maturity Date to the Payee. 2. Conversion. ---------- (a) Up to $5,000 of each $50,000 (i.e., 10%) of unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be convertible at the option of the Payee (the "Conversion Right") at any time after March 31, 1996 but prior to the close of business on the Maturity Date or the Accelerated Maturity Date, as applicable, in the manner and on the terms hereinafter set forth, into 70,000 shares of common stock, par value $.007 per share (the "Common Stock") of the Maker (the "Conversion Price"), subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4 hereof. (b) The Payee may, at its option and upon notice given no later than December 31, 1996, elect to extend the Maturity Date to a date after February 28, 1997, but in no case may such extended date be later than December 31, 1998, provided that this Note has not previously been prepaid or converted. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note to the contrary, upon receipt of notice of the Maker's intent to prepay part or all of the principal amount hereunder or of an Accelerated Maturity Date, the Payee may elect to exercise the Conversion Right and convert pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof a portion (as set forth in subsection (a) hereof) of the amount of unpaid principal which the Maker intends to prepay, up to the close of business on the last business day before the stated Repayment Date. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Conversion Right may not be exercised at any time during which a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 is filed but not effective. 3. Conversion Procedure. The Conversion Right may be exercised by the -------------------- Payee by the surrender of this Note (along with the conversion form attached hereto, duly executed) to the Maker at the principal office of the Maker. Risk of loss prior to surrender of this Note shall be borne by the Payee. Consequently, hand delivery with written acknowledgement of receipt by the Maker or registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, is the preferred mode of delivery. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery of the conversion notice is actually made or, if earlier, at the expiration of five calendar days after being sent to the Maker by the Payee by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with postage thereon fully prepaid (the "Conversion Date"). As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Maker shall issue and deliver to the Payee: (a) a new note representing the difference between principal amount of this Note and the principal amount hereof which has been converted pursuant hereto; and (b) certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Payee is entitled. The Maker shall not be obligated to issue certificates representing shares of Common Stock in the name of any party other than the Payee. The person or entity in whose name the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion hereof shall be deemed to have become a holder of record on the next succeeding day on which the transfer books are open, but the Conversion Price shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date. The Maker covenants that all securities which may be issued upon exercise of the Conversion Right will, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable and free of all taxes, liens and charges caused or created by the Maker with respect to the issuance thereof. 4. Adjustments. The number and kind of securities which may be received ----------- upon the exercise of the Conversion Right and the Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events, as follows: (a) Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Maker shall at any time or ----------------------------- from time to time after the date hereof effect a subdivision of its outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased, and conversely, if the Maker shall at any time or from time to time after the date 2 hereof combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this section shall become effective upon the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. (b) Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event that the Maker ----------------------------------- shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event that such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction: (i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed -------- ------- and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this subsection as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions. (c) Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event that the Maker at --------------------------------- any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Maker other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event provisions shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall receive, upon conversion of this Note, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Maker which such holder would have received had its Note been converted into shares of Common Stock on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Conversion Date, retained such securities (together with any distributions payable thereon during such period) receivable by the holder as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this section with respect to the rights of the holder of the Note. (d) Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the shares of Common ------------------------------------------ Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of capital stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for 3 above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for in subsection (e) below), then and in each such event, the holder of this Note shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of shares of capital stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change, as the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein. (e) Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets. If, at any ------------------------------------------------------- time or from time to time, there shall be a capital reorganization of the shares of Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this section) or a merger or consolidation of the Maker with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Maker's properties and assets to any other person or entity, then as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of capital stock or other securities or property of the Maker, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or sale, to which the holder of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this section with respect to the rights of the holder of this Note after the reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this section (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion of this Note) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent hereto as may be practicable. (f) Minimum Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set ------------------ forth herein, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made in an amount equal to less than one cent ($.01), but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to one cent ($.01) or more. (g) Certificate of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment ------------------------- or readjustment of the applicable Conversion Price pursuant to this section, the Maker shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to the holder of this Note a certificate, signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Chief Financial Officer, setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. (h) Notices of Record Date. If and in the event that: ---------------------- (i) the Maker shall set a record date for the purpose of entitling the holders of shares of Common Stock to receive a dividend, or any other distribution, payable otherwise than in cash; 4 (ii) the Maker shall set a record date for the purpose of entitling the holders of shares of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or to receive any other rights; (iii) there shall occur any capital reorganization of the Maker, reclassification of the shares of capital stock of the Maker (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding shares of Common Stock), consolidation or merger of the Maker with or into another corporation, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Maker; or (iv) there shall occur a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Maker; then, and in any such case, the Maker shall cause to be mailed to the holder of record of this Note, at least thirty (30) days prior to the dates hereinafter specified, a notice stating the date: (A) which has been set as the record date for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, or rights; or (B) on which such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the record date as of which the holder of record shall be entitled to exchange this Note for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. (i) Exceptions. The Maker proposes to acquire all of the assets of ---------- ILINK, Ltd., a Utah limited partnership, in exchange for the issuance of securities of the Maker (the "ILINK Acquisition"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth elsewhere herein, the provisions hereof relating to adjustments shall not be operative and no adjustment which otherwise may have been required pursuant hereto shall be made as a result of the issuance of securities by the Company in connection with or related in any way to the ILINK Acquisition. 5. Reservation. The Maker covenants that, during the period within which ----------- the Conversion Right may be exercised, the Maker will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of the Conversion Right, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities subject to the Conversion Right) to provide for the exercise of the Conversion Right in full. 6. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued ----------------- upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock to which the Payee would otherwise be entitled, the Maker shall pay an amount equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the fair value of one share of Common Stock on the Conversion Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Maker. 5 7. Registration Rights. The Maker hereby covenants and agrees as follows: ------------------- (a) Definitions. For purposes of this section: ----------- (i) The terms "register," "registered" and "registration" refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or similar document in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the declaration of effectiveness of such registration statement or other document by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). (ii) The term "Registrable Securities" means: (A) the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of this Note; or (B) any other securities of the Maker issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, in exchange for or in replacement of the shares of Common Stock referenced in subsection (A) immediately above, excluding in all cases, however, any Registrable Securities sold to the public pursuant to a registration or an exemption from registration. (iii) The number of shares of "Registrable Securities then outstanding" shall be the number of securities outstanding which are Registrable Securities. (iv) The term "Holder" as used hereinafter in this Section 7 means any person or entity owning of record Registrable Securities. (b) Reserved. -------- (c) Piggy-Back Registration Rights. In the event that (but without ------------------------------ any obligation to do so) the Maker proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities), the Maker shall promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration (the "Piggy-Back Notice"); provided, however, that the Maker shall have no obligation to so notify Holders with respect to any registration subsequent to the first of such registrations to occur after the issuance of this Note and shall have no obligation if the managing underwriter of the subject proposed offering expresses its objection thereto to the Maker. Upon the written request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after receipt of such Piggy-Back Notice from the Maker, the Maker shall, subject to the provisions of Section 7(h) below, cause to be included in the registration statement filed by the Maker under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered; provided, -------- however, that the Maker shall have no such obligation if the managing - - ------- underwriter of the subject proposed offering has expressed its objection to the same to the Maker. To the extent that a Holder is offered the opportunity under this Section 7 to include all of its Registrable Securities in a registration 6 statement, such Holder will be deemed to have exercised its sole piggy-back registration right provided by this Section 7(c). (d) Obligations of the Maker. Whenever required under this section ------------------------ to file a registration statement to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Maker shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible: (i) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of at least fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for at least four (4) months. (ii) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus included therein as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. (iii) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them. (iv) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders for the distribution of the securities covered by the registration statement, provided that the Maker shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. (v) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement with terms generally satisfactory to the managing underwriter of such offering. (vi) Notify the Holders promptly after the Maker shall have received notice thereof, of the time when the registration statement becomes effective or any supplement to any prospectus forming a part of the registration statement has been filed. (vii) Notify the Holders of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement and use its reasonable best efforts to remove such stop order. (e) Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Maker to take any action pursuant hereto that any Holder seeking to include any of its Registrable Securities in a registration statement filed by the Maker pursuant hereto shall furnish 7 to the Maker such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of its Registrable Securities. In that connection, each such Holder shall be required to represent to the Maker that all such information which is given is both complete and accurate in all material respects. Each of such Holders shall deliver to the Maker a statement in writing from the beneficial owners of such securities that such beneficial owners bona fide intend to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of such securities. (f) Definition of Expenses. ---------------------- (i) "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred --------------------- by the Maker in complying with Sections 7(c) and 7(d) hereof, including without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Maker, blue sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the Maker which shall be paid in any event by the Maker). (ii) "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts, ---------------- selling commissions and underwriters' expense allowance applicable to the sale and all fees and disbursements of any special counsel (other than the Maker's regular counsel) for any Holder. (g) Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred ------------------------ in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance herewith, shall be borne by the Maker, and all Selling Expenses shall be borne by the Holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities so registered; provided, however, that the Maker shall not be required to pay any Registration Expenses if, as a result of the withdrawal of a request for registration by Initiating Holders, the registration statement does not become effective. In the case of such withdrawal and the failure of the Holders to agree so to forfeit, the Holders shall bear such Registration Expenses pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities so included in the registration request. (h) Underwriting Requirements. All Holders proposing to distribute ------------------------- their securities through an underwriting pursuant hereto shall (together with the Maker and any other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for underwriting by the Maker. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, at the request of the managing underwriter, the Holder shall delay the sale of Registrable Securities which such Holder has requested be registered under this section for the ninety (90) day period commencing with the effective date of the registration statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such delay shall be required with respect to securities offered by holders of securities who have requested the Maker to register such securities pursuant to a mandatory registration obligation of the Maker if other security holders of the Maker who have not made requests pursuant to such an obligation are not subject to a similar delay. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Maker and the 8 underwriter. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall not be withdrawn from such registration except at the election of the Holder. (i) Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to --------------------- obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this section. (j) Indemnification. In the event that any Registrable Securities --------------- are included in a registration statement pursuant hereto: (i) To the extent permitted by law, the Maker will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors and partners of each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person or entity, if any, that controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation"): (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto; (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (C) any violation or alleged violation by the Maker of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; and the Maker will reimburse each such Holder, officer, director or partner, underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Maker (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Maker be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person; and further provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the definitive prospectus, such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of the underwriter (or the benefit of any person or entity that controls such underwriter), if a copy of the definitive prospectus was not sent or given to such person or entity with or prior to the confirmation of the sale of such securities to such person or entity. 9 (ii) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Maker, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Maker within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any underwriter (within the meaning of the Securities Act) for the Maker, any person who (or entity that) controls such underwriter, and any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement or any of its directors or officers or any person who controls such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Maker or any such director, officer, controlling person (or entity), or underwriter or controlling person, or other such Holder or director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Maker or any such director, officer, controlling person (or entity), underwriter or controlling person (or entity), other Holder, officer, director or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. (iii) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7(j) of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 7(j), notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to notify an indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, to the extent prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 7(j), but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7(j). (k) Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view toward making available to Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Maker to the public without registration, the Maker agrees to: 10 (i) use its best efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times; (ii) use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Maker under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request such information as may be reasonably requested in order to allow any Holder to avail himself of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration. (l) Termination of the Maker's Obligations. -------------------------------------- (i) The Maker shall have no obligation pursuant to Section 7(c) with respect to any request made by any Holder after the second anniversary of the Maturity Date. (ii) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the Maker shall not be required to effect any registration under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws on behalf of any Holder or Holders if, in the opinion of counsel for the Maker, the offering or transfer by such Holder or Holders in the manner proposed (including, without limitation, the number of shares proposed to be offered or transferred and the method of offering or transfer) is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the securities laws of applicable states. 8. Miscellaneous. ------------- (a) Restricted Securities. By acceptance hereof, the Payee --------------------- understands and agrees that this Note and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion hereof are "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Maker in a transaction not involving a public offering and have not been the subject of registration under the Securities Act and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold in the absence of registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. The Payee hereby represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

(c) Legends. It is understood that this Note and each certificate ------- evidencing shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion hereof (or evidencing any other securities issued with respect thereto pursuant to any stock split, stock dividend, merger or other form of reorganization or recapitalization) shall bear the legends (in addition to any legends which may be required in the opinion of the Maker's counsel by the securities laws of the state where the Payee is located) set forth on the first page of this Note. 9. Presentment. Except as set forth herein, Maker waives presentment, ----------- demand and presentation for payment, notice of nonpayment and dishonor, protest and notice of protest and expressly agrees that this Note or any payment hereunder may be extended from time to time by the Payee without in any way affecting the liability of Maker. 10.

No notice given or request made hereunder shall be valid unless signed by the Payee of this Note or other holder giving such notice or request (or, in the case of a notice or request by Holders of a specified percent in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes, unless signed 12 by each Holder of a Note whose Note has been counted in constituting the requisite percentage of Notes required to give such notice or make such request). 11. Events of Default. ----------------- (a) Each of the following shall constitute an event of default (an "Event of Default") hereunder: (i) the failure to pay when due any principal or interest hereunder and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice from the Payee to the Maker of such failure; (ii) the violation by the Maker of any covenant or agreement contained in this Note and the continuance of such violation for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice from the Payee to the Maker of such failure; (iii) any change in control of the Maker which the Board of Directors of the Maker deems to be hostile or unfriendly; (iv) the assignment for the benefit of creditors by the Maker; (v) the application for the appointment of a receiver or liquidator for the Maker or for property of the Maker; (vi) the filing of a petition in bankruptcy by or against the Maker; (vii) the issuance of an attachment or the entry of a judgment against the Maker in excess of $50,000; (viii) a default by the Maker with respect to any other indebtedness due to the Payee; (ix) the making or sending of a notice of an intended bulk sale by the Maker; or (x) the termination of existence, dissolution or insolvency of the Maker.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which remains uncured as set forth herein and the placement of this Note in the hands of an attorney for collection, the Maker agrees to pay reasonable collection costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and interest from the date of the default at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum computed on the unpaid principal balance. (b) The Payee waives any Event of Default hereunder. Such waiver shall be evidenced by written notice or other document specifying the Event or Events of Default being waived and shall be binding on all existing or subsequent Payees under this Note. 12.

Interest shall be paid by Maker to the Payee on the Maturity Date or the Accelerated Maturity Date, as applicable. By acceptance of this Non- Negotiable 10% Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note"), the Payee represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that he, she or it will abide by and be bound by its terms. 1. Prepayment and Notices. The unpaid principal balance outstanding under ---------------------- this Note may be prepaid in part or in full by the Maker without penalty, upon thirty (30) days notice to the Payee stating the repayment amount and repayment date (the "Repayment Date"). The Maker must provide notice five business days prior to an Accelerated Maturity Date to the Payee. 2. Conversion. ---------- (a) Up to $5,000 of each $50,000 (i.e., 10%) of unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be convertible at the option of the Payee (the "Conversion Right") at any time after March 31, 1996 but prior to the close of business on the Maturity Date or the Accelerated Maturity Date, as applicable, in the manner and on the terms hereinafter set forth, into 70,000 shares of common stock, par value $.007 per share (the "Common Stock") of the Maker (the "Conversion Price"), subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4 hereof. (b) The Payee may, at its option and upon notice given no later than December 31, 1996, elect to extend the Maturity Date to a date after February 28, 1997, but in no case may such extended date be later than December 31, 1998, provided that this Note has not previously been prepaid or converted. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note to the contrary, upon receipt of notice of the Maker's intent to prepay part or all of the principal amount hereunder or of an Accelerated Maturity Date, the Payee may elect to exercise the Conversion Right and convert pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof a portion (as set forth in subsection (a) hereof) of the amount of unpaid principal which the Maker intends to prepay, up to the close of business on the last business day before the stated Repayment Date. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Conversion Right may not be exercised at any time during which a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 is filed but not effective. 3. Conversion Procedure. The Conversion Right may be exercised by the Payee -------------------- by the surrender of this Note (along with the conversion form attached hereto, duly executed) to the Maker at the principal office of the Maker. Risk of loss prior to surrender of this Note shall be borne by the Payee. Consequently, hand delivery with written acknowledgement of receipt by the Maker or registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, is the preferred mode of delivery. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery of the conversion notice is actually made or, if earlier, at the expiration of five calendar days after being sent to the Maker by the Payee by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with postage thereon fully prepaid (the "Conversion Date"). As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Maker shall issue and deliver to the Payee: (a) a new note representing the difference between principal amount of this Note and the principal amount hereof which has been converted pursuant hereto; and (b) certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Payee is entitled. The Maker shall not be obligated to issue certificates representing shares of Common Stock in the name of any party other than the Payee. The person or entity in whose name the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion hereof shall be deemed to have become a holder of record on the next succeeding day on which the transfer books are open, but the Conversion Price shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date. The Maker covenants that all securities which may be issued upon exercise of the Conversion Right will, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable and free of all taxes, liens and charges caused or created by the Maker with respect to the issuance thereof. 4. Adjustments. The number and kind of securities which may be received upon ----------- the exercise of the Conversion Right and the Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events, as follows: (a) Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Maker shall at any time or ----------------------------- from time to time after the date hereof effect a subdivision of its outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased, and conversely, if the Maker shall at any time or from time to time after the date 2 hereof combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this section shall become effective upon the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. (b) Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event that the Maker ----------------------------------- shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event that such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction: (i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this subsection as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions. (c) Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event that the Maker at --------------------------------- any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Maker other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event provisions shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall receive, upon conversion of this Note, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Maker which such holder would have received had its Note been converted into shares of Common Stock on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Conversion Date, retained such securities (together with any distributions payable thereon during such period) receivable by the holder as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this section with respect to the rights of the holder of the Note. (d) Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the shares of ------------------------------------------ Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of capital stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for 3 above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for in subsection (e) below), then and in each such event, the holder of this Note shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of shares of capital stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change, as the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein. (e) Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets. If, at any ------------------------------------------------------- time or from time to time, there shall be a capital reorganization of the shares of Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this section) or a merger or consolidation of the Maker with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Maker's properties and assets to any other person or entity, then as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of capital stock or other securities or property of the Maker, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or sale, to which the holder of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this section with respect to the rights of the holder of this Note after the reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this section (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion of this Note) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent hereto as may be practicable. (f) Minimum Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set ------------------ forth herein, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made in an amount equal to less than one cent ($.01), but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to one cent ($.01) or more. (g) Certificate of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or ------------------------- readjustment of the applicable Conversion Price pursuant to this section, the Maker shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to the holder of this Note a certificate, signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Chief Financial Officer, setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. (h) Notices of Record Date. If and in the event that: ---------------------- (i) the Maker shall set a record date for the purpose of entitling the holders of shares of Common Stock to receive a dividend, or any other distribution, payable otherwise than in cash; 4 (ii) the Maker shall set a record date for the purpose of entitling the holders of shares of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or to receive any other rights; (iii) there shall occur any capital reorganization of the Maker, reclassification of the shares of capital stock of the Maker (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding shares of Common Stock), consolidation or merger of the Maker with or into another corporation, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Maker; or (iv) there shall occur a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Maker; then, and in any such case, the Maker shall cause to be mailed to the holder of record of this Note, at least thirty (30) days prior to the dates hereinafter specified, a notice stating the date: (A) which has been set as the record date for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, or rights; or (B) on which such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the record date as of which the holder of record shall be entitled to exchange this Note for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. (i) Exceptions. The Maker proposes to acquire all of the assets of ILINK, ---------- Ltd., a Utah limited partnership, in exchange for the issuance of securities of the Maker (the "ILINK Acquisition"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth elsewhere herein, the provisions hereof relating to adjustments shall not be operative and no adjustment which otherwise may have been required pursuant hereto shall be made as a result of the issuance of securities by the Company in connection with or related in any way to the ILINK Acquisition. 5. Reservation. The Maker covenants that, during the period within which ----------- the Conversion Right may be exercised, the Maker will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of the Conversion Right, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities subject to the Conversion Right) to provide for the exercise of the Conversion Right in full. 6. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued ----------------- upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock to which the Payee would otherwise be entitled, the Maker shall pay an amount equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the fair value of one share of Common Stock on the Conversion Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Maker. 5 7. Registration Rights. The Maker hereby covenants and agrees as follows: ------------------- (a) Definitions. For purposes of this section: ----------- (i) The terms "register," "registered" and "registration" refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or similar document in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the declaration of effectiveness of such registration statement or other document by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). (ii) The term "Registrable Securities" means: (A) the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of this Note; or (B) any other securities of the Maker issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, in exchange for or in replacement of the shares of Common Stock referenced in subsection (A) immediately above, excluding in all cases, however, any Registrable Securities sold to the public pursuant to a registration or an exemption from registration. (iii) The number of shares of "Registrable Securities then outstanding" shall be the number of securities outstanding which are Registrable Securities. (iv) The term "Holder" as used hereinafter in this Section 7 means any person or entity owning of record Registrable Securities. (b) Reserved. -------- (c) Piggy-Back Registration Rights. In the event that (but without ------------------------------ any obligation to do so) the Maker proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities), the Maker shall promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration (the "Piggy-Back Notice"); provided, however, that -------- ------- the Maker shall have no obligation to so notify Holders with respect to any registration subsequent to the first of such registrations to occur after the issuance of this Note and shall have no obligation if the managing underwriter of the subject proposed offering expresses its objection thereto to the Maker. Upon the written request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after receipt of such Piggy-Back Notice from the Maker, the Maker shall, subject to the provisions of Section 7(h) below, cause to be included in the registration statement filed by the Maker under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered; provided, -------- however, that the Maker shall have no such obligation if the managing - - ------- underwriter of the subject proposed offering has expressed its objection to the same to the Maker. To the extent that a Holder is offered the opportunity under this Section 7 to include all of its Registrable Securities in a registration 6 statement, such Holder will be deemed to have exercised its sole piggy-back registration right provided by this Section 7(c). (d) Obligations of the Maker. Whenever required under this section to ------------------------ file a registration statement to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Maker shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible: (i) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of at least fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for at least four (4) months. (ii) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus included therein as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. (iii) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them. (iv) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders for the distribution of the securities covered by the registration statement, provided that the Maker shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. (v) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement with terms generally satisfactory to the managing underwriter of such offering. (vi) Notify the Holders promptly after the Maker shall have received notice thereof, of the time when the registration statement becomes effective or any supplement to any prospectus forming a part of the registration statement has been filed. (vii) Notify the Holders of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement and use its reasonable best efforts to remove such stop order. (e) Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the ------------------- obligations of the Maker to take any action pursuant hereto that any Holder seeking to include any of its Registrable Securities in a registration statement filed by the Maker pursuant hereto shall furnish 7 to the Maker such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of its Registrable Securities. In that connection, each such Holder shall be required to represent to the Maker that all such information which is given is both complete and accurate in all material respects. Each of such Holders shall deliver to the Maker a statement in writing from the beneficial owners of such securities that such beneficial owners bona fide intend to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of such securities. (f) Definition of Expenses. ---------------------- (i) "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred by the --------------------- Maker in complying with Sections 7(c) and 7(d) hereof, including without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Maker, blue sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the Maker which shall be paid in any event by the Maker). (ii) "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts, ---------------- selling commissions and underwriters' expense allowance applicable to the sale and all fees and disbursements of any special counsel (other than the Maker's regular counsel) for any Holder. (g) Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in ------------------------ connection with any registration, qualification or compliance herewith, shall be borne by the Maker, and all Selling Expenses shall be borne by the Holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities so registered; provided, however, that the Maker shall not be required to pay any Registration Expenses if, as a result of the withdrawal of a request for registration by Initiating Holders, the registration statement does not become effective. In the case of such withdrawal and the failure of the Holders to agree so to forfeit, the Holders shall bear such Registration Expenses pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities so included in the registration request. (h) Underwriting Requirements. All Holders proposing to distribute their ------------------------- securities through an underwriting pursuant hereto shall (together with the Maker and any other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for underwriting by the Maker. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, at the request of the managing underwriter, the Holder shall delay the sale of Registrable Securities which such Holder has requested be registered under this section for the ninety (90) day period commencing with the effective date of the registration statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such delay shall be required with respect to securities offered by holders of securities who have requested the Maker to register such securities pursuant to a mandatory registration obligation of the Maker if other security holders of the Maker who have not made requests pursuant to such an obligation are not subject to a similar delay. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Maker and the 8 underwriter. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall not be withdrawn from such registration except at the election of the Holder. (i) Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or --------------------- seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this section. (j) Indemnification. In the event that any Registrable Securities are --------------- included in a registration statement pursuant hereto: (i) To the extent permitted by law, the Maker will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors and partners of each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person or entity, if any, that controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation"): (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto; (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (C) any violation or alleged violation by the Maker of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; and the Maker will reimburse each such Holder, officer, director or partner, underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Maker (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Maker be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person; and further provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the definitive prospectus, such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of the underwriter (or the benefit of any person or entity that controls such underwriter), if a copy of the definitive prospectus was not sent or given to such person or entity with or prior to the confirmation of the sale of such securities to such person or entity. 9 (ii) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Maker, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Maker within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any underwriter (within the meaning of the Securities Act) for the Maker, any person who (or entity that) controls such underwriter, and any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement or any of its directors or officers or any person who controls such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Maker or any such director, officer, controlling person (or entity), or underwriter or controlling person, or other such Holder or director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Maker or any such director, officer, controlling person (or entity), underwriter or controlling person (or entity), other Holder, officer, director or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. (iii) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7(j) of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 7(j), notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to notify an indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, to the extent prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 7(j), but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7(j). (k) Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view toward --------------------------------------------- making available to Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Maker to the public without registration, the Maker agrees to: 10 (i) use its best efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times; (ii) use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Maker under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request such information as may be reasonably requested in order to allow any Holder to avail himself of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration. l. Termination of the Maker's Obligations. -------------------------------------- (i) The Maker shall have no obligation pursuant to Section 7(c) with respect to any request made by any Holder after the second anniversary of the Maturity Date. (ii) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the Maker shall not be required to effect any registration under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws on behalf of any Holder or Holders if, in the opinion of counsel for the Maker, the offering or transfer by such Holder or Holders in the manner proposed (including, without limitation, the number of shares proposed to be offered or transferred and the method of offering or transfer) is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the securities laws of applicable states. 8.

Lessor warrants that neither Lessor nor anyone acting or claiming through Lessor, by assignment or otherwise, will interfere with Lessee's quiet enjoyment of the use of the Equipment so long as no event of default shall have occurred and be continuing EXCEPT FOR LESSOR'S WARRANTY OF QUIET ENJOYMENT LESSOR MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. AS TO LESSOR, LESSEE LEASES THE EQUIPMENT AND TAKES ANY PROGRAMMING "AS IS." IN NO EVENT SHALL LESSOR HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR, NOR SHALL LESSEE HAVE ANY REMEDY AGAINST LESSOR FOR, CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL LOSS. 10. LESSEE AUTHORIZATION. So long as Lessee is not in default under the Lease (a) Lessee is authorized to act on Lessor's behalf concerning delivery and installation of the Equipment, any IBM warranty service for the Equipment, and any programming services for the Programming, and (b) Lessee shall have, solely for these purposes, all rights Lessor may have against IBM under the Purchase Agreement. The foregoing authorization shall not constitute any surrender of Lessor's interest in the Equipment. 11. DELIVERY AND INSTALLATION. Lessee shall arrange with IBM for the delivery of the Equipment and Programming and for installation of the Equipment at the Equipment Location. Lessee shall pay any delivery and installation charges. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any delay in, or failure of, delivery of the Equipment and Programming. Lessee shall examine the Equipment and Programming immediately upon delivery. If the Equipment is not in good condition or the Equipment or Programming does not correspond to IBM's specifications, Lessee shall promptly give IBM written notice and shall provide IBM reasonable assistance to cure the defect or discrepancy. 2 12. LATE DELIVERY. If the Equipment or licensed program materials are not delivered to the Equipment Location on or before the 15th day after the Estimated Shipment Date, Lessor may, upon written notice to Lessee, increase the Lease Rate. Lessee may terminate the Lease for the affected item by giving Lessor written notice prior to delivery. Otherwise, the Rent shall be adjusted to reflect such increase. 13. RENT COMMENCEMENT DATE. The Rent Commencement Date, unless otherwise specified in the Supplement, shall be the date payment is due IBM under the applicable referenced agreement. Lessee shall be notified of the Rent Commencement Date and the serial numbers of the Equipment. 14. LEASE TERM. The Lease shall be effective when signed by both parties. The initial Term of the Lease shall expire at the end of the number of Payment Periods, specified as "Term" in the Supplement, after the Rent Commencement Date. However, obligations under the Lease shall continue until they have been performed in full. 15. RATE PROTECTION. Unless modified pursuant to Paragraph 12, the Rent shall be based on the Lease Rate specified in the Supplement or such greater Lease Rate as may be specified by written notice to Lessee more than one month before the Estimated Shipment Date or Effective Date for Additional License. By notice to Lessor in writing prior to delivery, or Effective Date for Additional License, and within 15 days after receipt of such notice, Lessee may terminate the Lease for the affected item. Otherwise, the Rent shall be adjusted to reflect the increase. The Unit Purchase Price and LPM Charges are subject to change in accordance with the referenced agreements. 16. RENT. During the initial Term, Lessee shall pay Lessor, for each Payment Period, Rent as determined in Paragraph 15. Lessee's obligation to pay shall begin on the Rent Commencement Date. Rent will be invoiced in advance as of the first day of each Payment Period and will be due on the day following the last day of the Payment Period. When the Rent Commencement Date is not on the first day of a calendar month and/or when the initial Term does not expire on the last day of a calendar month, the applicable Rent will be prorated on the basis of 30-day months. Advance Rent, if any, will be applied to the initial invoice(s). 17. RENEWAL. If Lessee is not then in default under the Lease, Lessee may renew the Lease one or more times but not beyond six years from the expiration of the initial Term. Lessor shall offer renewal Terms of one year and may offer longer Terms if then generally available. For a renewal Term, upon request by Lessee, at least five months prior to Lease expiration, Lessor shall notify Lessee, at least four months prior to expiration, of the Rent, any changes to the Payment Period and due dates, and of any required Purchase Option or Renewal Option Percents not specified in the Supplement. The Rent shall be objectively determined by Lessor by using the projected fair market rental value of the Equipment as of the commencement of such renewal Term. However, for Option B, the Rent shall be as specified in the Supplement. Lessee may renew for any renewal Term only by so notifying Lessor in writing at least three months before expiration. 18. PURCHASE OF EQUIPMENT. If Lessee is not then in default under the Lease, Lessee may, upon three months prior written notice to Lessor, purchase Equipment upon expiration of the Lease. Under Option A or B, the purchase price shall be objectively determined by Lessor by using the projected fair market sales value of the Equipment as of such expiration date plus, for Equipment under Option A, any recapture of investment tax credit and any tax due thereon. Under Option B Prime (B) the purchase price shall be an amount determined by multiplying the Unit Purchase Price by the Purchase Option Percent for such Equipment. If Lessee purchases any Equipment, Lessee shall, on or before the date of purchase, pay to Lessor the purchase price, any applicable taxes, all Rent due through the day preceding the date of purchase, any other amounts due, and the prepayment of Financing (Paragraph 35). Lessor shall, on the date of purchase, transfer to Lessee by bill of sale, 3 without recourse or warranty of any kind, express or implied, all of Lessor's right, title and interest in and to such Equipment on an "As Is, Where Is" basis except that Lessor shall warrant title free and clear of all encumbrances. 19. OPTIONAL EXTENSION. If Lessee has not elected to renew or purchase, and as long as Lessee is not in default under the Lease, the Lease will be extended unless Lessee notifies Lessor in writing, not less than three months prior to Lease expiration that Lessee does not want the extension. The extension will be under the same terms and conditions then in effect, including Rent (but, for Options A or B, not less than fair market rental value) and will continue until the earlier of termination by either party upon three months' prior written notice or six years after expiration of the initial Term. 20. INSPECTION; MARKING; FINANCING STATEMENT. Upon request, Lessee shall make the Equipment and its maintenance records available for inspection by Lessor during Lessee's normal business hours. Lessee shall affix to the Equipment any labels indicating ownership supplied by Lessor. Lessee shall execute and deliver to Lessor for filing any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements or similar documents Lessor may reasonably request. 21. EQUIPMENT USE. Lessee agrees that Equipment will be operated by competent, qualified personnel, in accordance with applicable operating instructions, laws and government regulations and that Equipment under Option A will be used only for business purposes. 22. MAINTENANCE. Lessee, at its expense, shall keep the Equipment in a suitable environment as specified by IBM ad in good condition and working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted. 23. ALTERATIONS; MODIFICATIONS; PARTS. Lessee may alter or modify the Equipment only upon written notice to Lessor. Any non-IBM alteration is to be removed and the Equipment restored to its normal, unaltered condition at Lessee's expense prior to its return to Lessor. At Lessee's option, any IBM field installable upgrade, feature addition or accessory added to any item of Equipment (Modification) may be removed. If removed, the Equipment is to be restored at Lessee's expense to its normal, unmodified condition. If not removed, such Modification shall, upon return of the Equipment, become, without charge, the property of Lessor free of all encumbrances. Restoration will include replacement of any parts removed in connection with the installation of an alteration or Modification. Any part installed in connection with warranty or maintenance service shall be the property of Lessor. 24. LEASES FOR MODIFICATIONS AND ADDITIONS. Lessor will arrange for leasing of Modifications and Additions under terms and conditions then generally in effect, subject to satisfactory credit review. Additions shall be machines, or LPM Charges for licensed program materials, which are associated with the Equipment. These Modifications and Additions must be ordered by Lessee from IBM. Any lease for Modifications shall, and any lease for Additions may, expire at the same time as the Lease for the Equipment. The rent shall be determined by Lessor and specified in a Supplement. If Lessee purchases Equipment prior to Lease expiration, Lessee shall simultaneously purchase any Modifications under the Lease. 25. RETURN OF EQUIPMENT. Upon expiration or termination of the Lease for any item of Equipment, or upon demand by Lessor pursuant to Paragraph 38, Lessee shall promptly return the Equipment, freight prepaid, to a location in the continental United States specified by Lessor. Except for Casualty Loss, Lessee shall pay any costs and expenses incurred by Lessor to inspect and qualify the Equipment for IBM's maintenance agreement service. Any parts removed in connection therewith shall become Lessor's property. 4 26. CASUALTY INSURANCE; LOSS OR DAMAGE. Lessor will maintain, at its own expense, insurance covering loss of or damage to the Equipment (but excluding any Modifications not subject to a Lease and any non-IBM alterations) with a $5,000 deductible per incident. If any item of Equipment shall lost, stolen, destroyed or irreparably damaged by any cause whatsoever ("Casualty Loss") before the date of Installation as defined in the Purchase Agreement, the Lease for that item shall terminate. If any item of Equipment suffers Casualty Loss, or shall be otherwise damaged, on or after the Date of Installation, Lessee shall promptly inform Lessor. If Lessor determines that the item can be economically repaired, Lessee shall place the item in good condition and working order and Lessor will reimburse Lessee the reasonable cost of such repair, less the deductible. If not so repairable, Lessee shall pay Lessor the lesser of $5,000 or the fair market value of the Equipment immediately prior to the Casualty Loss. Upon Lessor's receipt of payment, the Lease for that item shall terminate. 27. TAXES. Lessee shall promptly reimburse Lessor for, or shall pay directly if so requested by Lessor, as additional Rent, all taxes, charges, and fees imposed or levied by any governmental body or agency upon or in connection with the purchase, ownership leasing, possession, use or relocation of the Equipment or Programming or in connection with the financing of LPM Charges or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Lease, excluding, however, all taxes on or measured by the net income of Lessor. Upon request, Lessee will provide proof of payment. Any other taxes, charges and fees relating to the licensing, possession or use of licensed program materials will be governed by the License Agreement. 28. LESSOR'S PAYMENT. If Lessee fails to perform its obligations under Paragraph 27 or 31 or to discharge any encumbrances created by Lessee, Lessor shall have the right to substitute performance, in which case, Lessee shall pay Lessor the cost thereof. 29. TAX INDEMNIFICATION (APPLIES ONLY FOR EQUIPMENT UNDER OPTIONS A OR B). The Lease is entered into on the basis that under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"), Lessor shall be entitled to (1) maximum Accelerated Cost Recovery System ("ACRS") deductions for 5-year property and (2) deductions for interest expense incurred to finance purchase of the Equipment. The Bulletin "Lessor's Tax Assumptions" will be given to Lessee on request. Lessee represents, warrants and covenants that at all times during the Lease: (a) no item of Equipment will constitute "public utility property" as defined in the Code; (b) Lessee will not make any election under the Code or take any action, or fail to take any action, if such election, action or failure to act would cause any item of Equipment to cease to be eligible for any ACRS deductions or interest deductions; (c) Lessee will keep and make available to Lessor the records required to establish the matters referred to in this Paragraph 29; and (d) for Equipment located in a United States possession, Lessee represents that Lessee is a tax exempt entity as defined in the Code. Furthermore, if Lessee is a tax exempt entity, Lessee covenants that it will not renew or extend the Lease if such action shall cause Lessor a Tax Loss as described below. 5 If, as a result of any act, failure to act, misrepresentation, inaccuracy, or breach of any warranty or covenant, or default under the Lease, by Lessee, an affiliate of Lessee, or any person who shall obtain the use of possession of any item of Equipment through Lessee, Lessor shall lose the right to claim or shall suffer any disallowance or recapture of all or any portion of any ACRS deductions or interest deductions ("Tax Loss") with respect to any item of Equipment, then, promptly upon written notice to Lessee that a Tax Loss has occurred, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor the amount determined below. The reimbursement shall be an amount that, in the reasonable opinion of Lessor, shall make Lessor's after-tax rate of return and cash flows ("Financial Returns"), over the term of the Lease for such item of Equipment, equal to the expected Financial Returns that would have been otherwise available. The reimbursement shall take into account the effects of any interest, penalties and additions to tax required to be paid by Lessor as a result of such Tax Loss and all taxes required to be paid by Lessor as a result of any payments pursuant to this paragraph. Financial Returns shall be based on economic and tax assumptions used by Lessor in entering into the Lease. All the rights and privileges of Lessor arising from this Paragraph 29 shall survive the expiration or termination of the Lease. For purposes of determining tax effects under Paragraphs 18, 27, 29 and 30, the term "Lessor" shall include, to the extent of interests, any partner in Lessor and any affiliated group of corporations and each member thereof, of which Lessor or any such partner is or shall become a member and with which Lessor or any such partner joins in the filing of consolidated or combined returns. 30. GENERAL INDEMNITY. This Lease is a net lease. Therefore, Lessee shall indemnify Lessor against, and hold Lessor harmless from, any and all claims, actions, damages, obligations, liabilities and liens; and all costs and expenses, including legal fees, incurred by Lessor in connection therewith; arising out of the Lease including, without limitation, the purchase, ownership lease, licensing, possession, maintenance, condition, use or return of the Equipment, Programming or licensed program materials; or arising by operation of law; excluding, however, any of the foregoing which result from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor. Lessee agrees that upon written notice by Lessor of the assertion of any claim, action, damage, obligation, liability or lien, Lessee shall assume full responsibility for the defense thereof. Any payment pursuant to this paragraph shall be of such amount as shall be necessary so that, after payment of any taxes required to be paid thereon by Lessor, including taxes on or measured by the net income of Lessor, the balance will equal the amount due hereunder. Lessee's obligations under this paragraph shall not constitute a guarantee of the residual value or useful life of any item of Equipment or a guarantee of any debt of Lessor. The provisions of this paragraph with regard to matters arising during the Lease shall survive the expiration or termination of the Lease. 31. LIABILITY INSURANCE. Lessee shall obtain and maintain comprehensive general liability insurance, in an amount of $1,000,000 or more for each occurrence, with an insurer having a "Best's Policyholders" rating of B+ or better. The policy shall name Lessor as an additional insured as Lessor's interests may appear and shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give Lessor at least one month's prior written notice of the cancellation, or any alteration in the terms, of the policy. Lessee shall furnish to Lessor, upon request, evidence that such insurance coverage is in effect. 32. SUBLEASE AND RELOCATION OF EQUIPMENT; ASSIGNMENT BY LESSEE. Upon Lessor's prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, Lessee may sublet the Equipment or relocate it from the Equipment Location. No sublease or relocation shall relieve Lessee of its obligations under the Lease. In no event shall Lessee remove the Equipment from the United States. Lessee shall not assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Lease 6 or Equipment, or any interest therein, or create or suffer any levy, lien or encumbrance thereof except those created by Lessor. 33. ASSIGNMENT BY LESSOR. Lessor acknowledges and understands that the terms and conditions of the Lease have been fixed to enable Lessor to sell and assign its interest or grant a security interest or interests in the Lease and the Equipment individually or together, in whole or in part, for the purpose of securing loans to Lessor or otherwise. If Lessee is given written notice of any assignment, it shall promptly acknowledge receipt thereof in writing. Each such assignee shall have all of the rights of Lessor under the Lease. Lessee shall not assert against any such assignee any set-off, defense or counterclaim that Lessee may have against Lessor or any other person. Lessor shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment unless Lessee expressly consents thereto. 34. FINANCING. If the Lease provides for financing of LPM Charges, Lessor will pay such Charges directly to IBM. Any other charges due IBM under the License Agreement shall be paid directly to IBM by Lessee. Lessee's obligation to pay Rent shall not be affected by any discontinuance, return or destruction of any license or licensed program materials under the License Agreement on or after the date LPM Charges are due. If Lessee discontinues any of the licensed program materials in accordance with the terms of the License Agreement prior to the date LPM Charges are due, the financing of affected LPM Charges shall be cancelled. 35. FINANCING PREPAYMENT (Does Not Apply For Items of Equipment). Lessee may terminate an item of Financing (but not an item of Equipment) by prepaying its remaining Rent. Lessee shall provide Lessor with notice of the intended prepayment date which shall be at least one month after the date of the notice. Lessor may, depending on market conditions at the time, make an adjustment in the remaining Rent to reflect such prepayment and shall advise Lessee of the balance to be paid. If, prior to Lease expiration, Lessee purchases the Equipment or if the Lease is terminated, Lessee shall at the same time prepay any related Financing including that for programs licensed to the Equipment. 36. DELINQUENT PAYMENTS. If any amount to be paid to Lessor is not paid on or before its due date, Lessee shall pay Lessor on demand 2% of such late payment for each month or part thereof from the due date until the date paid or, if less, the maximum allowed by law. 37. DEFAULT; NO WAIVER. Lessee shall be in default under the Lease upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Lessee fails to pay when due any amount required to be paid by Lessee under the Lease and such failure shall continue for a period of seven days after the due date; (b) Lessee fails to perform any other provisions under the Lease or violates any of the covenants or representations made by Lessee in the Lease, or Lessee fails to perform any of its obligations under any other Lease entered into pursuant to this Agreement, and such failure or breach shall continue unremedied for a period of 15 days after written notice is received by Lessee from Lessor; (c) Lessee violates any of the covenants or representations made by Lessee in any application for credit or in any agreement with IBM with respect to the Equipment or licensed program materials or fails to perform any provision in any such agreement (except the obligation to pay the purchase price or LPM Charges); (d) Lessee makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, whether voluntary or involuntary, or consents to the appointment of a trustee or receiver, or if either shall be appointed for Lessee or for a substantial part of its property without its consent; (e) any petition or proceeding if filed by or against Lessee under any Federal or State bankruptcy or insolvency code or similar law; or (f) if applicable, Lessee makes a bulk transfer subject to the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code. Any failure of Lessor to require strict performance by Lessee or any waiver by Lessor of any provision in the Lease shall not be construed as a consent or waiver of any breach of the same or of any other provision. 7 38. REMEDIES. If Lessee is in default under the Lease, Lessor shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to exercise any one or more of the following remedies in order to protect its interests, reasonably expected profits and economic benefits. Lessor may (a) declare any Lease entered into pursuant to this Agreement to be in default; (b) terminate in whole or in part any Lease; (c) recover from Lessee any and all amounts then due and to become due; (d) take possession of any or all items of Equipment, wherever located, without demand or notice, without any court order or other process of law; and (e) demand that Lessee return any or all such items of Equipment to Lessor in accordance with Paragraph 25 and, for each day that Lessee shall fail to return any or all such items of Equipment, Lessor may demand an amount equal to the Rent, prorated on the basis of a 30-day month, in effect immediately prior to such default. Upon repossession or return of such item or items of Equipment, Lessor shall sell, lease or otherwise dispose of such item or items in a commercially reasonable manner, with or without notice and on public or private bid, and apply the net proceeds thereof towards the amounts due under the Lease but only after deducting (i) in the case of sale, the estimated fair market value of such item or items as of the scheduled expiration of the Lease; or (ii) in the case of any replacement lease, the rent due for any period beyond the scheduled expiration of the Lease for such item or items; (iii) in either case, all expenses, including legal fees, incurred in connection therewith; and (iv) where appropriate, any amount in accordance with Paragraph 29. Any excess net proceeds are to be retained by Lessor. Lessor may pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, seeking damages, specific performance and an injunction. No right or remedy is exclusive of an other provided herein or permitted by law or equity. All such rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be enforced concurrently or individually from time to time. 39. LESSOR'S EXPENSE. Lessee shall pay Lessor on demand all costs and expense, including legal and collection fees incurred by Lessor in enforcing the terms, conditions or provisions of the Lease or in protecting Lessor's rights and interests in the Lease and the Equipment. 40. OWNERSHIP; PERSONAL PROPERTY; LICENSED PROGRAM MATERIALS. The Equipment under Lease is and shall be the property of Lessor. Lessee shall have no right, title or interest therein except as set forth in the Lease. The Equipment is and shall at all times be and remain, personal property and shall not become a fixture or realty. Licensed program materials are licensed and provided by IBM directly to Lessee under the terms and conditions of the License Agreement. 41. NOTICES; ADMINISTRATION. Service of all notices under the Lease shall be sufficient if delivered personally or mailed to Lessee at its address specified in the Supplement or to IBM Credit Corporation as Lessor in care of the IBM Branch Office specified in the Supplement. Notice by mail shall be effective when deposited in the United States mail, duly addressed and with postage prepaid. Notices, consents and approvals from or by Lessor shall be given by Lessor or on its behalf by IBM and all payments shall be made to IBM until Lessor shall notify Lessee otherwise. 42. LESSEE REPRESENTATION. If the Lease includes Financing, Lessee represents that it is (a) a corporation if any item of Equipment is located in Ohio, Mississippi, Virginia or West Virginia, and/or (b) a business corporation if any item of Equipment is located in Pennsylvania. 43. REVISIONS FOR PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED EQUIPMENT. Equipment installed with Lessee under an IBM lease or rental agreement may be purchased by Lessor, on the Effective Date of Purchase (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), for lease to Lessee under Option B or B prime. For such Equipment, the Lease shall be revised as follows: 8 Paragraphs 4 and 26 -- replace "Estimated Shipment Date" by "Intended Effective Date of Purchase;" replace "delivery" and "Date of Installation" by "Effective Date of Purchase;" Paragraph 7 -- add at the end of the first paragraph, "Assignment of the option to purchase installed Equipment at the net purchase option price under an IBM lease or rental agreement will be permitted only when Lessee submits the Supplement in sufficient time to achieve the intended Effective Date of Purchase. The Effective Date of Purchase under this assignment shall be the later of the first day of the Quotation Month or the day on which the applicable Supplement is accepted by Lessor. If the Quotation Month expires and the purchase of Equipment is not concluded, this assignment and Lease will be null and void regarding any such Equipment and all rights, duties and obligations of Lessee and IBM will remain in accordance with the provisions of the IBM agreement under which the Equipment is currently installed;" Paragraphs 11 and 12 -- delete both paragraphs; and Paragraph 15 -- replace the entire paragraph with the following: "The Rent shall be based on the Lease Rate specified in the Supplement or such greater Lease Rate as may be specified by written notice to Lessee more than one month before the Effective Date of Purchase. The Unit Purchase Price is subject to change in accordance with the referenced Purchase Agreement. Lessee may terminate the Lease for any item subject to an increase by giving Lessor written notice on or before the Effective Date of Purchase." 44. APPLICABLE LAW; SEVERABILITY. The Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State of Connecticut. If any provision shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired. THE ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS ON PAGES __ THROUGH __ ARE PART OF AGREEMENT. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LESSEE HAS READ THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS SUPPLEMENT, UNDERSTANDS THEM, AND AGREES TO BE BOUND BY THEIR TERMS AND CONDITIONS. FURTHER, LESSEE AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS SUPPLEMENT ARE THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, SUPERSEDING ALL PROPOSALS OR PRIOR AGREEMENTS, ORAL OR WRITTEN, AND ALL OTHER COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF.
