BUSINESS. Foundation Health Corporation (the "Company") is an integrated managed care organization which administers the delivery of managed health care services. Through its subsidiaries, the Company offers group, Medicaid, individual and Medicare health maintenance organization ("HMO") and preferred provider organization ("PPO") plans; government sponsored managed care plans; and managed care products related to workers' compensation insurance, administration and cost-containment, behavioral health, dental, vision and pharmaceutical products and services. The Company has implemented managed care cost-containment programs, cost-effective medical delivery systems and medical information management to enable it to meet its business strategies. Over the past several years, the Company has developed a diversified product line, has established a full range of medical delivery systems and has achieved geographic expansion throughout the west, southwest and southeast areas of the United States and in the United Kingdom. The Company was incorporated in Delaware in 1984. The Company's executive offices are located at 3400 Data Drive, Rancho Cordova, California 95670, and its telephone number is (916) 631-5000. Unless the context otherwise requires, the term "Company" as used in this Report refers to Foundation Health Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries. BUSINESS STRATEGY The Company's business strategy is to develop, market and support the delivery of quality, cost-effective managed care products that address the health care needs of the Company's commercial, specialty services and government customers. The Company's business plan has the following primary objectives: (i) Achieve multi-state enrollment of covered medical risk lives (including Medicare, Medicaid and CHAMPUS lives); (ii) Achieve significant market share in commercial, government and specialty services managed care products in the markets the Company serves; (iii) Continue the Company's strategy to vertically integrate its health care delivery system; and (iv) Continue to improve administrative processes in order to provide quality services to its enrollees. Mergers and acquisitions have played an important role in the implementation of the Company's business strategy and are expected to continue to be important to the Company's growth and development. COMMERCIAL MANAGED CARE MEDICAL HMO AND PPO. The Company owns medical HMO subsidiaries which operate in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas and Utah and has commercial HMO license applications pending in Alabama and Nevada. The HMOs provide comprehensive health care coverage for a fixed fee or premium that does not vary with the extent or frequency of medical services actually received by the member. The Company's insurance subsidiaries have established preferred provider organization ("PPO") products. PPOs are generally a network of health care providers which offer their services to health care purchasers, such as insurers and self-funded employers. PPO enrollees choose their medical care from among the various contracting providers or choose a non-contracting provider and are reimbursed on a traditional indemnity plan basis after reaching an annual deductible. The Company assumes both underwriting and administrative expense risk in return for the premium revenue it receives from its medical HMO and PPO products. The HMOs and PPOs have contractual arrangements with health care providers, some of which are closely 1 affiliated with the Company, for the delivery of health care to the Company's enrollees. Cost-effective delivery of health care services by such providers is achieved through appropriate use of health care services, emphasizing preventive health care services and encouraging the reduction of unnecessary hospitalization and other services. The following chart describes the Company's commercial HMO and insured PPO membership by state and product: JUNE 30, 1995 COMMERCIAL HMO AND INSURED PPO

PROVIDER ARRANGEMENTS. The Company's medical HMOs arrange for the delivery of health care services to their enrollees by contracting with physicians, either directly or through independent practice associations ("IPAs") and medical groups, hospitals and other health care providers for a defined range of health services, including primary and specialty care and outpatient diagnostic services. Some of the IPAs and medical groups are affiliated with the Company, including Foundation Health Medical Group, Inc. ("FHMG") and Thomas-Davis Medical Centers, P.C., ("TDMC"), which are professional medical corporations owned by a Company-affiliated physician. Each enrollee's primary care physician plays a significant role in cost-control by practicing preventive medicine and managing the use of specialty physicians, hospitals and ancillary providers. The Company pays for health care services provided by IPAs and medical groups on a capitated basis or pursuant to discounted fee-for-service arrangements. Under capitation arrangements, the Company pays the IPA, medical group or hospital a fixed amount per enrollee per month to cover the payment of all or most medical services regardless of utilization, which transfers the risk of certain health care costs to the provider organization. The Company also uses various risk sharing and incentive arrangements to manage further the cost of providing health care. The Company contracts for hospital services under a variety of arrangements including capitation, per diem, discounted fee-for-service and flat fee arrangements. As a result of the increasing competition for health care providers (especially primary care physicians) and rising health care costs, the Company has implemented a strategy to construct and manage health care centers. FHMG and TDMC employ the physicians at the centers to provide medical services to the Company's enrollees. The Company provides facilities and support functions to the health care centers and is reimbursed in the form of a management fee by the affiliated professional corporations. CONTROL OF HEALTH CARE COSTS. The profitability of the Company depends on its ability to effectively control health care costs. Advances in medical technologies, inflation, hospital costs, major epidemics and numerous other external factors, including the aging of the population and other demographic characteristics affecting the delivery of health care, may affect the ability of HMOs, including the Company's HMOs, to predict and control health care costs. 2 The Company manages health care costs by entering into payment arrangements with health care providers and by sharing the risk of certain health care costs with certain of the Company's contracting providers. The Company continues to seek capitation arrangements with its physician providers. In addition, several of the Company's hospital providers are paid pursuant to capitation arrangements. Under the Company's utilization review system, certain routine hospital admissions and lengths of stay require prior authorization and concurrent review. Post-discharge utilization review procedures are performed to evaluate the quality and utilization of care. Health professionals also monitor and become involved in case management of catastrophic cases in an effort to assist enrollees in obtaining medical care and treatment options that may be more appropriate and cost-effective than a long-term hospital stay. RISK MANAGEMENT. In addition to the Company's cost control systems, the use of medical underwriting criteria is an integral part of its risk management efforts. In addition, the Company mitigates part of the risk of catastrophic losses by maintaining reinsurance coverage for annual hospital costs incurred in the treatment of an enrollee's illness. The Company believes that its reinsurance policies significantly limit, at a reasonable premium cost, the risk of catastrophic costs incurred by its enrollees. The Company also maintains general liability, property, fidelity, and managed care professional liability and directors and officers insurance coverage in amounts the Company believes to be adequate. The Company requires contracting physicians, physician groups, dentists, hospitals and ancillary providers to maintain malpractice insurance coverage in amounts customary in the industry. QUALITY MANAGEMENT. The Company's HMOs have programs to evaluate the quality and appropriateness of care provided to its enrollees. The providers participate in quality management programs through peer review procedures conducted with the Company's medical directors. These procedures involve reviews of the tests, types of treatment and procedures performed for specific diagnoses as well as reviews of aggregate data. When considering whether to contract with a provider, the Company's HMOs conduct a credentialling evaluation of the applicant, including licensure, board certification, residency program completion, malpractice claims history and ability to accommodate enrollment demands. The Company's HMOs have customer service departments that work directly with enrollees to respond to their concerns and have enrollee grievance procedures to investigate and resolve complaints. The Company's HMOs also conduct periodic surveys to assess enrollee satisfaction with the health care delivery system, health care received and responsiveness to enrollees' needs. MANAGED CARE INDEMNITY PRODUCTS. Through the Company's indemnity insurance subsidiaries, the Company expands the managed care options for enrollees by making available PPO, point-of-service and other insured managed care products. These companies also offer group term and dependent life, accidental death and dismemberment and long-term disability coverage, as well as dual choice and out-of-area medical coverage. SPECIALTY SERVICES MANAGED CARE The Company is utilizing its experience in managing HMOs to apply managed care concepts to areas such as dental, vision, prescription drugs, behavioral health, workers' compensation insurance and administration and ancillary services, in order to assist employers and other payers in meeting cost-containment and integration of benefits goals both on an insured and self-funded basis. The Company believes that offering a continuum of integrated managed care products and selling them across broad product lines will result in new sources of revenue, will increase membership in existing employer groups and will enable the Company to sell its integrated products to new employer groups. The Company's specialty services managed care operations consist of the following groups: DENTAL. DentiCare of California, Inc. ("DentiCare"), the Company's dental HMO, offers prepaid commercial and Medicaid dental care services. DentiCare served approximately 486,000 enrollees as of June 30, 1995. 3 VISION. Foundation Health Vision Services dba AVP Vision Plans, the Company's vision HMO, offers prepaid vision services in the major metropolitan areas of California. AVP served approximately 124,000 enrollees as of June 30, 1995. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH. Foundation Health PsychCare Services, Inc. (formerly Occupational Health Services, Inc.), the Company's behavioral health HMO, provides managed care mental health, employee assistance and substance abuse programs on both an insured and self-funded basis to employers, governmental entities and other payers throughout the United States through a network of contracted providers. Foundation Health PsychCare Services, Inc. provided services to approximately 2.2 million eligible beneficiaries as of June 30, 1995. WORKERS' COMPENSATION SERVICES. The Company applies its managed care concepts, such as use of specialized preferred provider networks and utilization review, to the operations of its workers' compensation subsidiaries, California Compensation Insurance Company ("CalComp"), Business Insurance Company and Combined Benefits Life Insurance Company, which had estimated aggregate annual premiums in force at June 30, 1995 of approximately $390 million. These subsidiaries expand the Company's workers' compensation products to include insured risk products, permit the Company to apply its managed care expertise to reduce the medical costs associated with workers' compensation claims and enable the Company to develop and market "24 hour" risk or "Combined Care" products covering employees for medical care both on and off the job. The Company provides third party administration of workers' compensation claims primarily to self-insured employers, and operates a medical review and cost-containment business for the workers' compensation industry primarily within California at the current time. PHARMACEUTICAL MANAGED CARE SERVICES. Integrated Pharmaceutical Services, the Company's pharmaceutical subsidiary, provides pharmaceutical managed care services, including a national pharmacy network and formulary, pharmacy adjudication and claims processing services, to reduce costs. This subsidiary also operates retail pharmacies at the Company's health care centers to manage pharmacy-related costs. SELF-FUNDED PRODUCTS. The Company has developed self-funded products for employers who desire the cost containment aspects of an HMO product but who want to self-insure the health care cost risk. The Company has developed a provider network for these self-funded products. The Company's third party administration subsidiaries provide administrative only arrangements, including utilization review, managed care and claims administrative services to employer groups and to medical groups and IPAs that are paid on a capitated, at-risk basis. GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS The Company, through Foundation Health Federal Services, Inc. ("FHFS"), its government contracts subsidiary, administers large, multi-year managed care government programs. FHFS subcontracts to affiliated and unrelated third parties the administration and health care risk of parts of these contracts. These programs include a CHAMPUS managed care contract in Washington and Oregon to provide health care services to approximately 227,000 CHAMPUS-eligible beneficiaries which commenced health care services in March, 1995 and a similar contract in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma to provide health care services to approximately 590,000 CHAMPUS-eligible beneficiaries with health care services scheduled to commence in November 1995. On August 31, 1995, FHFS was notified of award by the Department of Defense of the multi-year TRICARE managed care contract to provide health care services to approximately 720,000 CHAMPUS-eligible beneficiaries in California and Hawaii with health care services scheduled to commence in April 1996. FHFS had previously been the prime contractor under the predecessor contract to the TRICARE program from 1988 through January 31, 1994. The Company intends to compete for other managed care contracts as they are announced by federal and state agencies. There can be no assurance that the 4 Company will be successful in managing the implementation and delivery of services under several large, multi-year government managed care contracts or whether any such contracts will provide the Company with an adequate level of profitability. FHFS also administers contracts in Massachusetts and New Jersey to enroll Medicaid eligible individuals in managed care programs in those states. FHFS is not at risk for the provision of any health care services under either of these contracts. PATIENT SERVICES The Company owns and operates a 128-bed hospital located in Los Angeles, California, the East Los Angeles Doctors Hospital, and a 200-bed hospital located in Gardena, California, the Memorial Hospital of Gardena. Both of these hospitals are accredited by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations. The Company's strategy in maintaining ownership of these hospitals depends on the continued cost-efficiency of the hospitals, integration of the hospitals into the Company's Southern California HMO networks, particularly with respect to the Medicaid population, and development of subacute or related units which offer less costly care than acute hospitalization and which contribute to the hospitals' revenues. Through its wholly owned subsidiaries, American VitalCare, Inc. and Managed Alternative Care, Inc., the Company is also engaged in the management of hospital subacute care units serving chronically ill patients. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY The Company's information technology systems include several computer systems, each utilizing customized software and a network of on-line terminals. The Company's operations use its computer-based information technology systems for various purposes including claims processing, general accounting and health services reporting. These systems also include enrollment and billing functions, including membership verification capabilities, and analysis of transactions relating to providers and enrollees, such as claims status, hospital admissions and lengths of stay, outpatient care and utilization. The Company is heavily dependent on its information technology systems and is in the process of integrating the systems of its recently acquired operations. These systems will need to be further enhanced as the Company's business expands and it offers new products; there is no assurance the Company will not experience interruptions in service as a result of the enhancement and integration of its information technology systems. SALES AND MARKETING The Company's sales and marketing strategy and implementation for its managed care products is defined and coordinated by its corporate sales and marketing staff. Primary marketing responsibility for the Company's products resides with a marketing director and a direct sales force at both the corporate and subsidiary levels. In addition, these products are sold through independent insurance agents and brokers. The Company is emphasizing cross-marketing of its products to current and prospective customers through its corporate and subsidiary sales and marketing staff. Medicaid and Medicare risk products are primarily marketed by the HMOs' sales employees. Sales and marketing efforts are also supported by advertising programs that employ television, radio, newspapers, billboard and direct mail. COMPETITION The managed health care industry evolved primarily as a result of health care buyers' concerns regarding rising health care costs. The industry's goal is to infuse greater cost effectiveness and accountability into the health care system through the development of managed care products, including HMOs, PPOs, and specialized services such as mental health or pharmacy benefit programs, while increasing the accessibility and quality of health care services. The managed health care industry is highly competitive, both nationally and in the Company's various service areas. As HMO and PPO penetration of the health care market and the effects of health care reforms increase nationwide, the Company expects that competition for new contracts with large employer and government groups, small employer groups and individuals will intensify. In addition, employers 5 may choose to self-insure the health care risk while seeking benefit administration and utilization review services from third parties to assist them in controlling and reporting health care costs. In such an environment, the Company believes that having a broad line of health care programs and products available will be important in being selected by employers to manage the health care products or coverage offered to their employees. The Company's managed care products compete for group and individual membership with conventional health insurance plans, Blue Cross/Blue Shield plans, other HMOs, PPOs, third party administrators and health care companies, and employers or groups who elect to self-insure. The Company's ability to increase the number of persons covered by its products or services or to increase its premiums and fees can be affected by the Company's level of competition in any particular area. The Company believes that the principal competitive factors affecting the Company's business include price, the level and quality of service provided or arranged for, provider network capabilities, the offering of innovative products and marketplace reputation. The Company also faces competition from hospitals, health care facilities and other health care providers who have combined and formed their own networks to contract directly with employer groups and other prospective customers for the delivery of health care services. GOVERNMENT REGULATION Government regulation of the Company's business is a changing area of the law that varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from product to product and generally gives responsible administrative agencies broad discretion. The Company believes that it is currently in compliance in all material respects with the various federal and state licensing regulations and contract requirements applicable to its current operations. To maintain such compliance, it may be necessary for the Company to make changes from time to time in its services, products, structure or marketing methods. Additional government regulation, or future interpretation of existing regulations, could increase the cost of the Company's compliance or otherwise affect the Company's operations, products, profitability or business prospects. Non-compliance with government regulations could also subject the Company to fines, penalties, cease and desist orders, investigations, audits, reimbursement of funds previously received, lower reimbursement levels and contract termination. The Company is unable to predict what additional regulation, if any, affecting its business may be enacted in the future or how existing or future regulations may be interpreted. Increasingly states are considering various health care reform measures and are adopting laws or regulations which may limit the Company's HMOs and insurance operations' ability to control which providers are part of their networks and may hinder their ability to effectively manage utilization and cost. The Company is unable to predict what reforms, if any, may be enacted or how those reforms would affect the Company's operations. HMOS. All of the states in which the Company's HMOs offer products have enacted statutes regulating the activities of those HMOs. Regulatory authorities exercise extensive supervisory, investigatory and audit powers over HMOs. Most states require periodic financial reports from HMOs licensed to operate in their states and impose minimum capital or reserve requirements. Certain of the Company's subsidiaries are required to retain for their own use cash generated from their operations. In addition, certain of the Company's subsidiaries are required by state regulatory agencies to maintain restricted cash reserves represented by interest-bearing instruments which are held by trustees or state regulatory agencies to ensure that adequate financial reserves are maintained. Some state regulations enable agencies to review all contracts entered into by HMOs for reasonableness of fees charged and other provisions. The Company's HMOs which have Medicare risk contracts are subject to regulation by the Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA"), a branch of the United States Department of Health and Human Services. HCFA has the right to audit HMOs operating under Medicare risk contracts to determine each HMO's compliance with HCFA's contracts and regulations and the quality of care being rendered to the HMO's enrollees. 6 The Company's HMOs which have Medicaid contracts are subject to both federal and state regulation regarding services to be provided to Medicaid enrollees, payment for those services and other aspects of the Medicaid program. Both Medicare and Medicaid have in force and/or have proposed regulations relating to fraud and abuse, physician incentive plans and provider referrals which may affect the Company's operations. Several of the Company's HMOs have contracts with the Federal Employees Health Benefit Plan ("FEHBP"). These contracts are subject to extensive regulation, including complex rules relating to the premiums charged. FEHBP has the authority to retroactively audit the rates charged and frequently seeks premium refunds and other sanctions against health plans participating in the program. The Company's HMOs which have contracted with FEHBP are subject to such audits and may be requested to make such refunds. INSURANCE REGULATION. The Company's insurance subsidiaries are subject to regulation by the Department of Insurance (the "DOI") in each state in which the entity is licensed. Regulatory authorities exercise extensive supervisory power over insurance companies with regard to the licensing of insurance companies, including the nature of, and limitation on, an insurance company's investments, periodic examination of the operations of insurance companies, and the establishment of capital and surplus requirements for insurance companies. The Company's insurance company subsidiaries are required to file periodic statutory financial statements in each jurisdiction in which they are licensed, are subject to an annual audit by an independent public accounting firm, and are required to file on an annual basis an actuarial certification of the insurer's reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses. Additionally, such companies are periodically examined by the insurance departments of the jurisdictions in which they are licensed to do business. INSURANCE HOLDING COMPANY REGULATIONS. Certain of the Company's HMOs and each of the Company's insurance subsidiaries are subject to regulation under state insurance holding company regulations. Such insurance holding company laws and regulations generally require registration with the state DOI and the filing of certain reports describing capital structure, ownership, financial condition, certain intercompany transactions and general business activities. Various notice and reporting requirements generally apply to transactions between companies within an insurance holding company system, depending on the size and nature of the transactions. Certain state insurance holding company laws and regulations require prior regulatory approval or, in certain circumstances, prior notice of, certain material intercompany transactions as well as certain transactions between the regulated companies and their affiliates. TPAS. Certain subsidiaries of the Company are also licensed as third party administrators ("TPAs") in states where such licensing is required for their activities. TPA regulations differ greatly from state to state and there are not uniform or consistent applications of regulations from state to state. UTILIZATION REVIEW REGULATIONS. A number of states have enacted laws and/or adopted regulations governing the provision of utilization review activities. Generally, these laws and regulations require compliance with specific standards for the delivery of services, confidentiality, staffing, and policies and procedures of private review entities, including the credentials required of personnel. Some of these laws and regulations may affect certain operations of the Company's businesses. ERISA. The provision of goods and services to or through certain types of employee health benefit plans is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). ERISA is a complex set of laws and regulations that are subject to periodic interpretation by the United States Department of Labor. ERISA places certain controls on how certain of the Company's subsidiaries may do business with employers covered by ERISA, particularly employers that maintain self-funded plans. The Department of Labor is engaged in an ongoing ERISA enforcement program which may result in additional constraints on how ERISA-governed benefit plans conduct their activities. There recently have been legislative attempts to limit ERISA's preemptive effect on state laws. If such 7 limitations were to be enacted, they might increase the Company's liability exposure under state law-based suits relating to employee health benefits offered by the Company's HMOs and specialty businesses and may permit greater state regulation of other aspects of those businesses' operations. GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS. FHFS is subject to extensive federal regulation and cost accounting standards as a result of its government contracts, including federal affirmative action and labor requirements, and in the future may be subject to additional state regulations with respect to such contracts. FHFS is also subject to federal and state regulations as a result of the administration of Medicaid programs in various states. HOSPITAL REGULATION. The operation of the Company's hospitals is also subject to federal, state and local government regulation. These facilities are subject to periodic inspection by state licensing agencies to determine that standards of medical care and the physical plant necessary for continued licensure are maintained. The hospitals are subject to environmental legislation by virtue of the real property owned by the hospitals and by their operations, including regulation of the disposal of medical waste. Under the federal reimbursement program for inpatients, Medicare pays a predetermined rate for each covered hospitalization. Each hospitalization is classified into one of several hundred diagnosis related groups, which classification determines the rate paid for the hospitalization. Outpatient services are reimbursed on the basis of reasonable cost and/or per procedure price. The East Los Angeles Doctors Hospital and Memorial Hospital of Gardena have Medicaid contracts which are subject to cancellation by the state or the hospital on 120 days' prior notice without cause. If either hospital's Medicare contract was terminated, the hospital would also cease to participate in Medicaid. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, the hospitals received approximately 76.7% of their total revenues from the Medicare and Medicaid contracts. The termination of participation in these programs would threaten the hospitals' viability. GOVERNMENT AUDITS. The Company is subject to and currently is undergoing extensive governmental investigations and audits with respect to its government contracts and Medicaid and Medicare programs. The results of such audits, which may continue past the termination of the contracts, may result in reimbursement to the governmental agencies of amounts previously paid by such governmental agencies to the Company. The Company is also subject to regular and special medical and financial investigations and audits by various state and federal regulatory agencies with respect to the operations of its HMO and insurance subsidiaries. EMPLOYEES As of June 30, 1995, the Company and its subsidiaries employed approximately 8,896 people. None of the Company's employees is presently covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company believes its employee relations are good. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. As of June 30, 1995, the Company leased approximately 1.2 million aggregate square feet of space primarily for administrative offices, data processing facilities and claims processing in the states in which it is doing business. These leases expire at various dates through July 2002. The Company owns approximately 486,000 aggregate square feet of space for health care centers in California and Arizona and approximately 248,760 square feet of space for the two hospitals in Southern California. The Company also leases approximately 245,000 aggregate square feet of space for health care centers in Arizona, California and Florida, which leases expire at various dates through April 2003. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. The Company maintains general liability and managed care professional liability and directors and officers liability insurance and other insurance coverage it believes is typical in the industry. In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is subject to claims and legal actions by enrollees, 8 providers and others. See "Business -- Government Regulation." There can be no assurance that claims in excess of the Company's insurance coverage will not arise or that all claims would be covered by such insurance. The Company has been requested pursuant to two separate non-public Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") investigations, commencing in August 1992 in the case of Century MediCorp. Inc. ("CMC") and in August 1995 in the case of Intergroup Healthcare Corporation ("Intergroup"), to provide information regarding trading (i) in the common stock of CMC and the Company prior to the July 1992 announcement of the proposed merger between CMC and the Company and (ii) in the common stock of Intergroup prior to the July 1994 announcement of the proposed merger between Intergroup and the Company. The SEC has not brought charges in connection with either inquiry and has advised the Company that its inquiries are not to be construed as an adverse reflection on any person or as an indication that any violation of law has occurred. Two actions, as previously disclosed, filed in 1993 against the Company, its dental HMO subsidiary and certain present and former executive officers of the Company and such subsidiary, continue in discovery or pleading stages and as such, the Company cannot determine the liability, if any, that may be assessed or result in these matters. The Company is defending these matters vigorously. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. Not applicable.

11 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. The Company's financial position and results of operations changed significantly during fiscal year 1995 as a result of the following mergers and acquisitions which enhanced the Company's geographic and product diversity:
DATE OF ACQUISITION NATURE OF BUSINESS CONSIDERATION - ------------------------------ ----------------------------------- ----------------------------------- PURCHASE TRANSACTIONS July 1994 Workers compensation bill review $37 million cash plus common stock and third party administration November 1994 Colorado HMO $8.9 million common stock November 1994 Florida Medicaid HMO $32.9 million cash plus note November 1994 39.5% minority interest in Arizona $249.1 million common stock and Utah managed care company ("Intergroup") February 1995 Property and casualty insurance $13.2 million cash company POOLING TRANSACTIONS October 1994 Florida managed care company $226.4 million exchange of common ("CareFlorida") stock November 1994 Arizona professional corporation $438.9 million exchange of common ("TDMC") and its 60.5% interest in stock Intergroup
In addition to these mergers and acquisitions, in fiscal year 1995 the Company's government contracts subsidiary was awarded a large government managed care contract in Washington and Oregon to provide services to approximately 227,000 CHAMPUS-eligible beneficiaries (the "Washington/Oregon Contract"), which commenced health care delivery in March 1995 and was awarded a similar contract in April 1995 in Oklahoma, Arkansas and parts of Louisiana and Texas to provide services to approximately 590,000 CHAMPUS-eligible beneficiaries (the "Region 6 Contract"), with health care delivery scheduled to commence in November 1995. The financial information, enrollment data and related comparisons presented in this discussion have been restated to include the results of CareFlorida, TDMC and its majority interest in Intergroup for all periods presented. The acquisitions accounted for under the purchase method of accounting have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition. This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. CONSOLIDATED OPERATING RESULTS The Company achieved record revenues and earnings (before a $124.8 million acquisition and restructuring charge net of related tax effects recorded in the second quarter) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995. The growth in revenues during fiscal year 1995 was primarily driven by commercial enrollment gains, especially from the Company's individual and Medicare risk products, additional Medicaid enrollment as a result of the acquisition of the Florida Medicaid HMO, growth in net earned workers' compensation premium due to sales and recapture of ceded premium and commencement of health care delivery under the Washington/Oregon Contract during the third quarter. This growth was offset by the January 31, 1994 expiration of the CRI Contract. Fiscal year 1994 revenues included $431.3 million in revenues related to the CRI Contract. Revenues in fiscal year 1994 exceeded fiscal 12 year 1993 revenues of $2,006.7 million by 17.8%, primarily as a result of increased commercial enrollment and specialty services revenues, including revenues generated from CalComp which was acquired in August 1993. Investment and other income, included as a component of the Company's revenues, increased each year due primarily to the investment of excess surplus and reserves generated by operations, a significant part of which was generated by CalComp, acquired in August 1993, whose investments are primarily held in tax-exempt securities. Investment income also increased due to the general rise in interest rates during fiscal years 1993, 1994 and 1995. The Company's selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses in fiscal year 1995 increased due primarily to the implementation costs of the Washington/Oregon and Region 6 Contracts and start-up of the New Jersey Medicaid administrative services only contract. The increase in SG&A expenses in fiscal year 1994 over 1993 was due primarily to expenses related to the establishment and operation of government claims processing as an internal function and the inclusion of SG&A expenses related to Gem Insurance Company ("Gem"), the Utah insurance subsidiary which was acquired by Intergroup effective January 1, 1994. The ratio of SG&A expenses to total revenues (the "SG&A ratio") increased from 11.5% in fiscal year 1993 to 12.3% in fiscal year 1994 to 12.5% in fiscal year 1995. This increase was due primarily to the expiration of the CRI Contract which resulted in the cessation of contract revenues effective January 31, 1994 while various administrative costs related to claims processing and other activities continued during the wind-down period. Amortization and depreciation expense increased each year primarily due to increased depreciation as a result of the Company's ownership and construction of health care centers and increased amortization of goodwill incurred in connection with the purchase of the Intergroup minority interest and other business acquisitions during fiscal years 1993, 1994 and 1995. Interest expense increased in fiscal year 1994 from fiscal year 1993 due primarily to the issuance of $125 million of Senior Notes in June 1993. Interest expense decreased in fiscal year 1995 as a result of the prepayment of $11.4 million in bank debt by TDMC in November 1994. In connection with the mergers of CareFlorida, TDMC and Intergroup, the Company recorded a charge for integration, restructuring and pooling costs of $124.8 million. The acquisition and restructuring charge represents the costs of acquiring and consolidating the companies' management information systems and administrative functions and positioning the Company to take advantage of best practices in healthcare delivery systems and managed care techniques after the mergers. The components of this charge include (in millions): Professional fees....................................................... $ 21.5 Cancellation of certain contractual obligations and other settlement costs.................................................................. 27.1 Write-off of certain redundant hardware, software and other settlement costs.................................................................. 17.9 Elimination of duplicate facilities..................................... 13.0 Transition and severance related payments to employees.................. 36.5 Other integration and restructuring..................................... 8.8 ------ Total............................................................... $124.8 ------ ------
These costs satisfy the definition of "exit costs" as set forth in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an 13 Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)" that are directly related to the mergers. Management of the Company anticipates the integration and restructuring of the combined entities will be substantially complete by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1996. Full implementation of the restructuring plan will result in the termination of 638 employees (291 employees had been terminated as of June 30, 1995) by eliminating and consolidating duplicate administrative, information systems and sales functions. As of June 30, 1995, $62.8 million (primarily professional fees, transition and related severance payments and write-off of impaired assets) in merger, integration and restructuring costs have been paid or otherwise charged against the $124.8 million accrual. The remaining restructuring obligations are expected to be substantially paid as due through the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1996 utilizing existing cash resources of the Company. The amounts set forth above represent management's best estimate of the restructuring costs to be incurred and the timing of the restructuring and integration plan (the "Plan"). The progress of the Plan and the actual amounts incurred could vary from these estimates if future developments differ from the underlying assumptions used by management in developing the recorded accrual. The Company expects that this restructuring will result in operating cost savings in excess of the amount of the charge. As a result of the factors described above and despite expiration of the CRI Contract in January 1994, income before income taxes and minority interest grew from $149.4 million in fiscal year 1993 (before acquisition and restructuring costs) to $165.9 million in 1994. After acquisition and restructuring costs, income before income taxes and minority interest was $137.0 million in fiscal year 1993. In fiscal year 1995, income before income taxes and the minority interest grew to $203.3 million (before acquisition and restructuring costs). After acquisition and restructuring costs, income before income taxes and minority interest was $78.5 million in fiscal year 1995. The tax provision rate for fiscal year 1994 of 39.1% was 2.5% lower than for fiscal year 1993, because of acquisition expenditures in the earlier year which were not deductible for income tax purposes, and the acquisition in fiscal year 1994 of CalComp, which is not subject to state income or franchise taxes. The tax provision rate dropped further in fiscal year 1995 to 34.2% because of the combined effect of the acquisition and restructuring charge of $124.8 million and the resulting increased proportion of tax-exempt interest income as a percentage of pre-tax income. The rate was further reduced by the acquisition of Intergroup, which is not subject to state franchise or income taxes, and the elimination of a duplicate tax for undistributed income from Intergroup to its former parent company. These rate reductions were mitigated by the effects of non-deductible acquisition expenses. Minority interest represents the allocation of Intergroup's net income to the holders of the 39.5% shares of Intergroup common stock not held by TDMC (the "Intergroup Minority Interest"), for the periods prior to the Company's acquisition of the Intergroup Minority Interest. Through the combination of the factors described above, net income grew from $82.5 million or $1.72 per share in fiscal year 1993 (before the $12.4 million acquisition and restructuring costs net of related tax effects) to $93.6 million or $1.92 per share in fiscal year 1994. After the acquisition and restructuring costs net of related tax effects in fiscal year 1993, net income was $73.3 million or $1.53 per share. In fiscal year 1995, net income increased to $128.8 million or $2.35 per share (before the $124.8 million acquisition and restructuring costs net of related tax-effects). After such charge net of related tax effects, net income for fiscal year 1995 was $49.4 million or $.90 per share. The Company's ability to expand its business is dependent, in part, on competitive premium pricing and its ability to secure cost-effective contracts with providers. Achieving these objectives is becoming increasingly difficult due to the competitive environment. In addition, the Company's profitability is dependent, in part, on its ability to maintain effective control over health care costs while providing members with quality care. Factors such as health care reform, integration of acquired companies, regulatory changes, utilization, new technologies, hospital costs, major epidemics 14 and numerous other external influences may affect the Company's operating results. Accordingly, past financial performance is not necessarily a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical records to anticipate results or future period trends. LINE OF BUSINESS REPORTING The Company operates in a single industry segment, managed health care. The following table presents financial information reflecting the Company's operations by the three primary lines of business: (i) commercial operations; (ii) government contracts; and (iii) specialty services. This information is provided to facilitate a more meaningful discussion of the Company's results of operations. As patient services (the operations of the Company's two hospitals) represents less than 2.5% of the Company's total revenues for all lines of business, a detailed discussion is not presented. Commercial operations includes the Company's HMOs and life and health insurance subsidiaries. This line of business is characterized by operations in which the Company assumes underwriting risk in return for premium revenue. Government contracts consists of contractual services to state and federal government programs such as CHAMPUS and administrative-only Medicaid contracts in which the Company receives revenues for administrative and management services and, under the CHAMPUS contracts, also accepts financial responsibility for health care costs. Specialty services includes operations in which the Company assumes underwriting risk in return for premium revenue, including managed care workers' compensation insurance and behavioral health, dental and vision HMO products, and operations in which the Company provides administrative services only, including certain of the behavioral health and pharmacy benefits management programs, workers' compensation third party administration and bill review services and administrative-only products and services. 15 LINE OF BUSINESS FINANCIAL INFORMATION FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION

16 COMMERCIAL OPERATIONS Revenues generated by the Company's commercial operations increased in fiscal year 1995 over fiscal year 1994 due in part to inclusion of revenues from the January 1994 purchase of Gem and the November 1994 purchases of the Colorado HMO and the Florida Medicaid HMO as well as increased enrollment in existing lines of business. Revenues in fiscal year 1994 increased over fiscal year 1993, reflecting increased enrollment growth and as well as the inclusion of revenue from Gem for the last six months of fiscal year 1994. The Company anticipates revenues to increase during fiscal year 1996 primarily as a result of enrollment growth; however, the rate of increase is not expected to be at the same level as in prior years since, to some extent, prior year increases have resulted from businesses acquired and the Company anticipates continued pressure on its ability to increase premium rates. The Company expects continued pressure from employer groups and government agencies to reduce premiums. Effective July 1, 1995, Medicaid HMO rates in Florida were reduced by approximately 18%, which will affect commercial premium revenues. Employer groups continue to demand lower premium increases and in some cases, premium decreases. The Company has managed health care costs and decreased the rate at which its health care costs have grown, by a number of strategies, including greater controls on hospital utilization, the generation of cost savings through national health care purchasing contracts (including mental health, home health and pharmacy) and long-term hospital provider contracts, reduction in specialist reimbursement rates and utilization and development and management of health care centers. The Company is starting to realize the impact of implementing these strategies on its recent acquisitions. The Company's continued medical cost management efforts are reflected in the commercial loss ratio, which improved in fiscal year 1995 from fiscal year 1994. The slight increase in the ratio in fiscal year 1994 over that in fiscal year 1993 was due to the competitive pressures in California offset in part by the greater profitability of the Company's Florida and Arizona HMOs. The Company believes that the pressures on margins will continue, which may adversely affect the commercial loss ratio; however, the Company will seek to mitigate any increase in the loss ratio by the cost management efforts described above. In addition, as the Company's Medicare risk business increases, the loss ratio may increase as historically this product has a higher loss ratio than the Company's other HMO and indemnity insurance business. GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS Government contracts revenue decreased in each of the last two fiscal years primarily due to the expiration of the CRI Contract in January 1994. The CRI Contract contributed $682.1 million to revenues in fiscal year 1993 and $431.3 million in fiscal year 1994. The Company commenced health care delivery under its managed care contract in Louisiana and Texas in May 1993 and under the Washington/Oregon Contract in March 1995. Government contracts revenue is impacted by semi-annual bid price adjustments, annual price increases or decreases, risk sharing provisions and various other price adjustments attributable to change orders for additional services, inflation and other factors. On August 31, 1995, FHFS was notified of award by the Department of Defense of the multi-year TRICARE managed care contract to provide services to approximately 720,000 CHAMPUS-eligible beneficiaries in California and Hawaii. Health care services are scheduled to commence in April 1996. The contract is valued at approximately $2.5 billion in revenue over the projected five year term. The government contracts ratio improved in each of the last two fiscal years. The improvement from fiscal year 1993 to fiscal year 1994 was due primarily to lower health care costs under the CRI Contract attributable to effective managed care techniques, shifting of claims processing from an outside vendor to an internal function and increased change order revenue. The continued improvement in fiscal year 1995 was due to the continued phase-out of the CRI Contract. The government contracts ratio is expected to increase in fiscal year 1996 as a result of a full year of delivery of health care services under the Washington/Oregon Contract and delivery of health care services under the Region 6 Contract which are scheduled to commence in November 1995 and the TRICARE contract which are scheduled to comence in April 1996. 17 SPECIALTY SERVICES Specialty services revenues increased from $89.1 million in fiscal year 1993 to $380.7 million in fiscal year 1994 to $509.8 million in fiscal year 1995. A significant part of the increases was due to revenues related to CalComp which was acquired in August 1993 and to the Company's workers' compensation bill review and third party administration subsidiaries which were acquired in July 1994. In addition, during fiscal year 1995, several of the Company's specialty services subsidiaries recorded increased revenues related to start-up Medicaid contracts. The increase in the specialty services ratio in fiscal year 1994 over that of fiscal year 1993 was primarily a result of the purchase of CalComp, which generally has a higher operating ratio than the other specialty services businesses. The improvement in the ratio in fiscal year 1995 was primarily due to improvement in the workers' compensation operating ratios, discussed below, through the successful implementation of managed care programs, which has lowered workers' compensation medical costs and the addition of the workers' compensation bill review company, which was acquired in July 1994, which has a lower administrative component than most of the other specialty services companies. Commencing in 1993, several significant reforms to the California workers' compensation laws affected CalComp. The reforms address various aspects of the workers' compensation system, including limitations on certain types of claims, restrictions on vocational rehabilitation benefits, additional penalties for fraud and abuse, and reductions in state-mandated minimum premium rates which culminated in open rating in California effective January 1, 1995. Since the acquisition of CalComp, the Company has taken various actions to mitigate the effects of the reforms and the sharp premium declines as a result of the more competitive pricing environment under open rating. These actions include development and implementation of its managed care approach to workers' compensation, continued use of loss prevention and return to work programs, shifting of the risk profile of CalComp's business, increased use of the Company's PPO and blended case management systems (which have reduced the average severity per claim), and payment of lower average commissions to agents and brokers in California on new and renewal policies written in 1995. The Company believes this strategy should contribute to the continued growth of this part of the specialty services operations and may offset the impact from the changes in the California workers' compensation marketplace. Four ratios are traditionally used to measure underwriting performance of workers' compensation companies: the loss and loss adjustment expense ratio, the underwriting expense ratio and the policyholder dividend ratio, which when added together constitute the combined ratio. A combined ratio of greater than 100% reflects an underwriting loss, while a combined ratio of less than 100% indicates an underwriting profit. The following table sets forth CalComp's underwriting experience as measured by its combined ratio and its components (computed on a generally accepted accounting principles basis) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995 and the eleven months from August 1, 1993 (the date of acquisition) to June 30, 1994:
JUNE 30, ------------------------ 1995 1994 ----------- ----------- Loss and loss adjustment expense ratio............................................... 62.8% 62.8% Underwriting expense ratio........................................................... 22.7 24.0 Policyholder dividend ratio.......................................................... 1.4 7.4 --- --- Combined ratio....................................................................... 86.9% 94.2%
CalComp was able to maintain a consistent loss and loss adjustment expense ratio in fiscal year 1995 through the successful implementation of managed care programs, as described above, and the increased use of internal staff to support fair hearing representatives in the settlement of claims, despite the 16% decrease in the minimum rates in California effective October 1, 1994, and the abolishment of minimum rates and the commencement of open rating effective January 1, 1995. The 18 decrease in the combined ratio from fiscal year 1994 to fiscal year 1995 was primarily due to the 6.0% decrease in the policyholder dividend ratio and the 1.3% reduction in the underwriting expense ratio. The underwriting expense ratio decrease is primarily due to the decrease in employee salaries and benefits to 9.7% of premiums in fiscal year 1995 from 11.0% in fiscal year 1994. CalComp was able to achieve this decrease during a period when net premiums earned increased by 20%; however, approximately one-half of such increase was the result of cancellation of CalComp's quota share reinsurance arrangement effective July 1, 1994. Workers' compensation reforms and increased price competition have also resulted in lower policyholder dividends incurred as policyholders now receive the benefit of lower workers' compensation costs in the form of reduced premiums at the inception of the policy versus policyholder dividends paid after the policy expires. QUARTERLY RESULTS The following table presents unaudited consolidated operating results for the last eight fiscal quarters. The Company believes that all necessary adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, have been included in the amounts stated below to present fairly the following quarterly results when read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein. Results of operations for any particular quarter are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full fiscal year.
1ST 2ND 3RD 4TH QUARTER QUARTER QUARTER QUARTER --------- --------- --------- --------- (IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) FISCAL 1994 Total revenues.......................................................... $ 621.3 $ 637.5 $ 578.9 $ 525.2 Income before income taxes and minority interest........................ $ 39.9 $ 47.7 $ 40.0 $ 38.3 Net income.............................................................. $ 22.3 $ 27.3 $ 22.4 $ 21.7 Earnings per share...................................................... $ 0.47 $ 0.56 $ 0.46 $ 0.44 FISCAL 1995 Total revenues.......................................................... $ 594.4 $ 598.5 $ 615.6 $ 651.4 Income (loss) before income taxes and minority interest................. $ 39.3 $ (76.8) $ 57.8 $ 58.2 Net income (loss)....................................................... $ 23.7 $ (49.3) $ 36.3 $ 38.8 Earnings (loss) per share............................................... $ 0.48 $ (0.90) $ 0.63 $ 0.68
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash provided by operating activities was $201.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1995 as compared to $144.1 million for the prior year. The increase was due primarily to the Company's profitable operations, especially those of CalComp. The Company's cash and investments increased from $765.6 million at June 30, 1994 to $795.3 million at June 30, 1995. The Company invests its cash in investment grade securities. The total cash portion of the purchase price for acquisitions completed in fiscal year 1995 described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements is $61.1 million, $53.2 million of which has been paid to date with the remainder to be paid in November 1995. During fiscal year 1996, the Company expects capital expenditures to approximate $67.8 million, primarily consisting of $47.7 million for the purchase of computer hardware and software systems; $15.3 million for the purchase of furniture and equipment primarily for the health care centers and the hospitals; and $4.8 million for other requirements. The Company anticipates the net costs of operating and managing the health care centers for fiscal year 1996 will approximate $20 million, offset in part by health care cost savings anticipated to be realized by the Company's HMOs. Effective September 1, 1995, the Company purchased a medical practice and related facilities in Arizona for approximately $6.2 million, which was paid in cash. The anticipated level of capital expenditures in fiscal year 1996 for construction of health care centers and corporate facilities has been impacted as a result of the Company's $60 million tax-retention operating lease financing with NationsBank of Texas, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the 19 Lenders parties thereto and First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., as Owner Trustee (the "TROL" financing). The Company expects that up to $32 million of the TROL financing will be used during fiscal year 1996 for the construction of health care centers and corporate facilities. The Company's regulated subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum tangible net equity or capital and surplus. As of June 30, 1995, restricted net assets of the subsidiaries totaled approximately $34.3 million. Certain subsidiaries must also maintain current ratios of 1:1. During fiscal year 1995, the Company contributed $35 million to CalComp to meet rating agency requirements to maintain an A- rating and to support future premium growth. The Company also contributed $14 million to its United Kingdom subsidiary for required capital and surplus to support its operations. As the Company's businesses continue to grow, the Company expects to contribute additional cash to certain subsidiaries to support premium and revenue growth. In addition, the Company's regulated subsidiaries are required to keep securities on deposit in various states where they are licensed. At June 30, 1995, approximately $364.9 million in securities were restricted to satisfy various state regulatory and licensing requirements. In December 1994, the Company established a $300 million unsecured revolving credit agreement with Citicorp USA, Inc. as Administrative Agent (the "Credit Agreement") for the lenders parties thereto. As of August 31, 1995, the Company has drawn $60 million under the Credit Agreement. In June 1993, the Company issued $125 million of Senior Notes due June 1, 2003, which bear interest at 7 3/4% due semi-annually. See Notes 7 and 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a more detailed description of the TROL financing, the Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes. In April 1993, the Company established a stock repurchase program (as amended) to acquire from time to time up to 5.7 million shares of the Company's common stock in the open market at prices deemed appropriate by management and subject to market conditions and other relevant factors. As of June 30, 1995, the Company had repurchased 1,545,500 shares under the program, 100,000 of which were repurchased in fiscal year 1995. Management of the Company continually evaluates opportunities to expand the Company's commercial, government contracts and specialty services operations. The Company's expansion options may include additional acquisitions and internal development of new products and programs. ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

24 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1994 AND 1995 25 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Foundation Health Corporation We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Foundation Health Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 1994 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 1995. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the index at Item 14(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits. The consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to the merger of Foundation Health Corporation and CareFlorida Health Systems, Inc. on October 31, 1994, and to the merger of Foundation Health Corporation and Thomas-Davis Medical Centers, P.C. on November 1, 1994, both of which have been accounted for using the pooling of interests method of accounting as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. We did not audit the balance sheets of Thomas-Davis Medical Centers, P.C. as of December 31, 1992 and 1993, or the related statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1992 and December 31, 1993, which statements reflect total assets of $174,705,000 and $192,493,000 as of December 31, 1992 and 1993, respectively, and total revenues of $317,672,000 and $419,283,000 for the respective years then ended. We also did not audit the balance sheets of CareFlorida Health Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 1992 and 1993, or the related statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1992 and December 31, 1993, which statements reflect total assets of $33,765,000 and $51,451,000 as of December 31, 1992 and 1993, respectively, and total revenues of $112,474,000 and $154,122,000 for the respective years then ended. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Thomas-Davis Medical Centers, P.C. and CareFlorida Health Systems, Inc. for such periods, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, subsequent to the issuance of the reports of the other auditors, the financial statements of Thomas-Davis Medical Centers, P.C. and CareFlorida Health Systems, Inc. were restated to conform to the fiscal year of Foundation Health Corporation for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 1994. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Foundation Health Corporation and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 1994 and 1995, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the financial statement schedules referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein. We also audited the adjustments described in Note 1 that were applied to restate the 1992 and 1993 financial statements of Thomas-Davis Medical Centers, P.C. and CareFlorida Health Systems, Inc. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements 30 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Foundation Health Corporation (the "Company") operates an integrated multi-state managed care organization. The Company's operations are focused on its commercial Health Maintenance Organization ("HMO") and Preferred Provider Organization ("PPO") operations, government-sponsored managed care programs, and specialty services operations. The Company's commercial HMO subsidiaries contract to provide medical care services to a defined, enrolled population for a predetermined, prepaid monthly fee for group, Medicaid, individual and Medicare HMO plans throughout their respective service areas. All of the HMOs are state licensed and some are also federally qualified. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Foundation Health Federal Services, Inc. ("Federal Services"), administers large, multi-year managed care government contracts. Federal Services was the prime contractor pursuant to the CHAMPUS Reform Initiative ("CRI") under the CRI Contract which commenced on February 1, 1988 to implement a program to provide health care services to CHAMPUS beneficiaries in California and Hawaii. Federal Services subcontracted with the Company's California HMO in northern and central California and other health care providers in southern California and Hawaii for the delivery of health care services in their respective designated service areas. The contract expired January 31, 1994 with a wind-down and termination period after expiration. In June 1991, Federal Services entered into a five-year agreement with the Department of Defense ("DoD") to develop, implement and operate managed health care programs for CHAMPUS beneficiaries in New Orleans, Louisiana, which in May 1993 was expanded to cover additional beneficiaries in other parts of Louisiana and Texas. In September 1994, the Company was awarded a similar contract to cover beneficiaries in Oregon and Washington which commenced health care delivery on March 1, 1995 and, in April 1995, the Company was awarded an additional contract for beneficiaries in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas with health care delivery scheduled to commence in November 1995. In August 1995 Federal Services was awarded a five year contract to provide services to CHAMPUS beneficiaries in California and Hawaii. The Company's specialty services subsidiaries offer managed care products related to behavioral health, dental, vision, pharmaceutical products and services, and workers' compensation insurance, administration and cost containment. The Company's largest specialty services subsidiary, California Compensation Insurance Company ("CalComp"), acquired in August 1993, is primarily engaged in writing workers' compensation insurance in California. CalComp enables the Company to utilize its managed care capabilities and provider networks to reduce the medical costs associated with workers' compensation claims and provides the Company with the ability to market "24 hour" risk products covering employees for medical care both on and off the job. The Company operates and manages Company-owned and leased health care centers in California, Arizona and Florida which provide primary and multi-specialty care to enrolled members. Physicians employed by professional corporations which are owned by Company-affiliated physicians provide services to the Company's members at the health care centers. The Company provides facilities and support functions to the health care centers and is reimbursed in the form of a management fee by the affiliated professional corporations. The Company owns and operates two hospitals, the East Los Angeles Doctors Hospital, a 128-bed general hospital located in East Los Angeles, California and the Memorial Hospital of Gardena, a 200-bed general hospital located in Gardena, California (the "Hospitals"). The health care services provided by the Hospitals are general medical and surgical services, subacute, pediatrics, intensive 31 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED) and coronary care, physical therapy, respiratory care and emergency room services. The Hospitals received approximately 76.7% of their revenues from Medicare and Medicaid programs during the year ended June 30, 1995. CONSUMMATED BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS -- POOLING TRANSACTIONS In October 1992, 505,372 shares of the Company's common stock were issued in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of Occupational Health Services, Inc. ("OHS"). OHS provides employee assistance and other managed care behavioral health and substance abuse programs on both a prepaid and self-funded basis to employers, governmental entities and other payors. In October 1992, 5,041,376 shares of the Company's common stock were issued in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of Century MediCorp, Inc. ("CMC"). In addition, all outstanding CMC options were exchanged for options to purchase 303,520 shares of the Company's common stock. CMC owned three HMOs and the Hospitals in Southern California. In December 1992, CMC merged into the Company, and by March 1993, CMC's HMO subsidiaries had merged into one of the Company's HMO subsidiaries. In connection with the acquisitions of CMC and OHS, the Company charged $12,413,000 to operations during the year ended June 30, 1993 for acquisition and restructuring costs. These costs consist of $4,690,000 relating to the integration and restructuring of the combined entities, $4,533,000 in direct transaction costs (primarily professional fees) and $3,190,000 in contract terminations. The integration and restructuring costs consisted primarily of the disposition of duplicate computer hardware and software, costs of integrating membership and claims functions, personnel related costs and costs associated with closing or relocating duplicate facilities. These mergers have been accounted for as poolings of interests and accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been restated to include the accounts of CMC and OHS for all periods presented. On October 31, 1994, 6,862,051 shares of the Company's common stock were issued in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of CareFlorida Health Systems, Inc. ("CareFlorida"). At the time of acquisition, CareFlorida provided comprehensive health care services to approximately 143,000 members in Florida through its HMO and PPO subsidiaries. On November 1, 1994, 13,124,027 shares of the Company's common stock were issued in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of Thomas-Davis Medical Centers, P.C. ("TDMC"), including its majority interest of 60.5% of the outstanding common stock of Intergroup Healthcare Corporation ("Intergroup"). Additionally, 7,577,336 shares were issued for the purchase of the remaining 39.5% minority interest of Intergroup. All outstanding Intergroup options were exchanged for options to purchase 500,290 shares of the Company's common stock. TDMC employed approximately 190 physicians at the date of merger who provided health care services to patients in Arizona through 15 primary care centers, five urgent care centers, two behavioral health centers and one surgery center. At the time of merger, Intergroup provided comprehensive health care services to approximately 379,000 HMO and life and accident insurance members and 104,000 PPO members primarily in Arizona and Utah. In connection with the mergers of CareFlorida, TDMC and Intergroup, the Company recorded a charge for integration, restructuring and pooling costs of $124.8 million. 32 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED) The acquisition and restructuring charge represents the costs of acquiring and consolidating the companies' management information systems and administrative functions and positioning the Company to take advantage of best practices in healthcare delivery systems and managed care techniques after the mergers. The components of this charge include (in millions): Professional fees....................................................... $ 21.5 Cancellation of certain contractual obligations and other settlement costs.................................................................. 27.1 Write-off of certain redundant hardware, software and other settlement costs.................................................................. 17.9 Elimination of duplicate facilities..................................... 13.0 Transition and severance related payments to employees.................. 36.5 Other integration and restructuring..................................... 8.8 ------ Total............................................................... $124.8 ------ ------
These costs satisfy the definition of "exit costs" as set forth in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)," that are directly related to the mergers. Management of the Company anticipates the integration and restructuring of the combined entities will be substantially complete by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1996. Full implementation of the restructuring plan will result in the termination of 638 employees (291 employees had been terminated as of June 30, 1995) by eliminating and consolidating duplicate administrative, information systems and sales functions. As of June 30, 1995, $62.8 million (primarily professional fees, transition and related severance payments and write-off of impaired assets) in merger, integration and restructuring costs have been paid or otherwise charged against the $124.8 million accrual. The remaining restructuring obligations are expected to be substantially paid as due through the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1996 utilizing existing cash resources of the Company. The amounts set forth above represent management's best estimate of the restructuring costs to be incurred and the timing of the restructuring and integration plan (the "Plan"). The progress of the Plan and the actual amounts incurred could vary from these estimates if future developments differ from the underlying assumptions used by management in developing the recorded accrual. In accordance with the pooling of interests method of accounting the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been restated to include the accounts of TDMC (including its 60.5% interest in Intergroup) and CareFlorida for all periods presented. Prior to the mergers, CareFlorida and TDMC each reported on a calendar year basis. Accordingly, the consolidated financial 33 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED) statements include CareFlorida's and TDMC's financial statements restated to the Company's fiscal year basis. Separate and combined results of the Company, CareFlorida and TDMC for the periods prior to consummation of the mergers are as follows (in thousands):

CONSUMMATED BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS -- PURCHASE TRANSACTIONS In August 1992, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of American Citizens Life Insurance Company, now named Foundation Health National Life Insurance Company ("National Life"), a life and accident insurance company currently licensed in 16 states, for the purchase price of $2,171,000, paid in cash, which represented the fair market value of net assets of the acquired company as of the closing of the transaction, as well as intangible assets totaling $450,000. In October 1992, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of AVP Vision Plans, a vision HMO, for the purchase price of $1,020,000, paid in cash, which resulted in goodwill of $912,000. In July 1993, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Managed Alternative Care, a subacute care management company, for $6,000,000, paid in cash, which resulted in goodwill of $5,500,000.

In addition, all outstanding BICO options were exchanged for options to purchase 29,475 shares of the Company's common stock. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of $5,001,000. In April 1994, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Gem Holding Corporation ("Gem"), a holding company primarily engaged in writing health, individual life, annuities, group life, disability and dental insurance. At the date of acquisition, Gem provided services to approximately 83,000 individuals in six western states. The purchase price was $17,800,000 which was paid in cash. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of approximately $4,500,000. The effective date of the acquisition was January 1, 1994. 34 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED) In April 1994, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Premier Medical Network ("Premier"). Premier provides third party administrative services to approximately 98,000 individuals through a PPO network in Utah. The purchase price was $1,500,000, paid in cash. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of $1,200,000. In July 1994, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of The Noetics Group and all of the assets of Reviewco for consideration consisting of the issuance of 378,358 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $16 million, 118,236 shares of common stock valued at $5 million, which was placed in escrow and cash of $16 million. The release of the escrow shares is subject to the attainment of certain profitability targets by Reviewco. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of $27,773,000. The Noetics Group provides workers' compensation third party administration services for self-funded employers. Reviewco operates a medical bill review and cost-containment business for the workers' compensation industry. In November 1994, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Southern Colorado Health Plan, Inc. ("SCHP"), and its parent corporation for consideration consisting of 241,672 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $8,900,000. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of $6,755,000. At the date of acquisition, SCHP provided health care services to 7,100 members through its HMO based in Pueblo, Colorado. In November 1994, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Community Medical Plan, Inc. ("CMP") and certain affiliated health care centers for consideration of $32.9 million, consisting of $25 million in paid cash and at closing the issuance of promissory notes of $7.9 million due November 15, 1995. At the date of acquisition, CMP served approximately 25,000 Medicaid beneficiaries in Florida. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of $32,752,000. In November 1994, the Company issued 7,577,336 shares of its common stock for the purchase of 39.5% of the outstanding common stock of Intergroup (the "Intergroup Minority Interest"). The acquisition of the Intergroup Minority Interest, which was accounted for as a purchase, was valued at $249,109,000 and resulted in goodwill of $207,371,000. The unaudited pro forma combined total revenues, net income and earnings per share of the Company and the Intergroup Minority Interest, assuming the Company had acquired the Intergroup Minority Interest on July 1, 1993, are as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):
PRO FORMA YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, ---------------------- 1994 1995 ---------- ---------- Total revenues................................................................. $ 2,362.9 $ 2,459.9 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Net income..................................................................... $ 96.9 $ 50.6 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Earnings per share............................................................. $ 1.74 $ 0.89 ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
This unaudited pro forma information reflects the elimination of the Intergroup Minority Interest and the amortization of the goodwill related to the purchase of the Intergroup Minority Interest. The unaudited pro forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the combined results that would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on July 1, 1993, nor are they necessarily indicative of results that may occur in the future. Effective January 1, 1995, CalComp acquired a 50-state licensed property and casualty company for an aggregate purchase price of $13,201,000, consisting of the fair market value of investments and 35 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED) intangible assets which was paid in cash at closing. This company had no insurance business in force at closing and will enable CalComp to geographically expand its managed care workers' compensation products. No goodwill was recorded as a result of this transaction. The above acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and accordingly, the operations of these companies have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition. NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been restated for the mergers accounted for as poolings of interests as discussed in Note 1. REVENUE RECOGNITION Commercial premium revenue includes HMO and PPO premiums from employer groups and individuals and from Medicare recipients who have purchased supplemental benefit coverage, which premiums are based on a predetermined prepaid fee, Medicaid revenues based on multi-year contracts to provide care to Medicaid recipients, and revenue under Medicare risk contracts to provide care to enrolled Medicare recipients. Revenue is recognized in the month in which the related enrollees are entitled to health care services. Premiums collected in advance are recorded as unearned premium. Revenue under government contracts is recognized in the month in which the eligible beneficiaries are entitled to health care services. Certain government contracts also contain cost and performance incentive provisions which adjust the contract price based on actual performance, and revenue under certain contracts is subject to price adjustments attributable to inflation and other factors. The effects of these adjustments are recognized on a monthly basis. Amounts receivable under government contracts are comprised primarily of estimated amounts receivable under these cost and performance incentive provisions, price adjustments, and change orders for services not originally specified in the contracts. Specialty services revenue is recognized in the month in which the administrative services are performed or the period that coverage for service is provided. Workers' compensation premium revenue is recognized ratably over the period to which the premium relates. The insurance policies currently written by the Company are for a period of one year or less. Billed premium in excess of premiums earned represents the liability for unearned premium. Premiums earned include an estimate for earned but unbilled premiums. Patient service revenue is recorded on the accrual basis in the period in which services are provided at established rates regardless of whether collection in full is anticipated. Contractual and charitable allowances, the results of other arrangements for providing services at less than established rates and the provision for doubtful accounts are reported as deductions from patient service revenue. Contractual allowances include differences between established billing rates and amounts estimated by management as recoverable in accordance with reimbursement rates in effect. Differences between final settlements and amounts accrued in previous years are reported as adjustments to the current year's provision for contractual allowance. Unearned premiums related to commercial and specialty services lines of business totaled $31,778,000 and $64,930,000 at June 30, 1994 and 1995 and are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. 36 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) RESERVES FOR CLAIMS, LOSSES AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES AND HEALTH CARE SERVICES EXPENSES Except as discussed below, reserves for claims, losses and loss adjustment expenses and health care services expenses are based upon the accumulation of cost estimates for unpaid claims and losses reported prior to the close of the accounting period, together with a provision for the current estimate of the probable cost of claims, losses and loss adjustment expenses that have occurred but have not yet been reported. Such estimates are based on many variables including individual cases for reported losses, estimates of unreported losses using historical and statistical information and other factors. Workers' compensation claims, losses and loss adjustment expenses, and specialty health care services expenses are included in specialty services costs in the statements of operations. The methods for making the estimates and for establishing the resulting reserves are continually reviewed and updated, and any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current operations. Such estimates are subject to the impact of changes in the regulatory environment and economic conditions. Given the inherent variability of such estimates, the actual liability could differ significantly from the amounts provided. While the ultimate amount of claims and losses and the related expenses paid are dependent on future developments, management is of the opinion that the reserves for claims, losses and loss adjustment expenses is adequate to cover such claims, losses and expenses. These liabilities are reduced by estimated amounts recoverable from third parties for subrogation. The Company has capitation contracts with individual practice associations, medical groups and hospitals ("Capitated Providers") to provide medical care services to enrollees. The Capitated Providers are at risk for the cost of medical care services provided to the Company's enrollees in the relevant geographic areas; however, the Company is ultimately responsible for the provision of services to its enrollees should the Capitated Providers be unable to provide the contracted services. Certain Capitated Providers also provide claims processing and other administrative services. The Capitated Providers are either paid a fixed percentage of premiums collected in the geographic areas they service or a fixed amount per enrollee for enrollees in their respective service areas. Medical care expenses relating to these Capitated Providers are included in commercial health care services expense and amounted to $318,349,000, $398,700,000 and $467,735,000 for the years ended June 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995. The HMOs also contract with hospitals, physicians and other providers of health care, pursuant to discounted fee for service arrangements and hospital per diems under which providers bill the HMOs for each individual service provided to enrollees. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents include investments with original maturities of three months or less. INVESTMENTS Prior to July 1, 1994, the Company classified its securities as short-term investments and fixed maturities. Securities with an original maturity of one year or less at the date of acquisition were classified as short-term investments. Such investments were carried at cost, which approximated market value. Declines in market value which were determined by management to be other than temporary were recorded as charges to the statement of operations. Investments with fixed maturities primarily included long-term investment grade bonds and were carried at amortized cost. It is the Company's policy to invest in notes, bonds and money market securities, limited by certain restrictions. The cost of investments sold is determined using the specific identification method. 37 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Effective July 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." The adoption of SFAS No. 115 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In accordance with SFAS No. 115, the Company classifies investments held by trustees or agencies pursuant to state regulatory requirements as held to maturity based on the Company's ability and intent to hold these investments to maturity. Such investments are presented at amortized cost. All other investments are classified as available for sale and are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of income tax effects. For purposes of calculating realized gains and losses on the sale of investments available for sale, the amortized cost of each investment sold is used. The Company has no trading securities. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method for all assets over their estimated useful lives as follows: Buildings and improvements.............................................. 5-40 years Furniture and equipment................................................. 3-10 years
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major improvements which increase the estimated useful life of an asset are capitalized. Upon the sale or retirement of assets, recorded cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss on disposal is reflected in operations. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill and other intangible assets consists primarily of goodwill and other intangibles which arise as a result of various business acquisitions and the acquisition of the Company through a leveraged buy-out on December 30, 1986, at which time the assets and liabilities of the Company were recorded at their appraised values. In addition, the Company's policy is to defer direct and incremental preoperating costs related to its HMO subsidiaries' geographic expansion and the opening of health care centers. These costs are deferred prior to the commencement of significant operations at which time the Company begins amortizing such costs over a three-year period. Goodwill and other intangible assets are amortized using the methods listed below over appropriate periods not exceeding 40 years.

38 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Goodwill of $62,520,000 and $330,503,000 at June 30, 1994 and 1995, net of accumulated amortization of $33,226,000 and $49,138,000 at June 30, 1994 and 1995, is included in goodwill and other intangible assets. The Company intends to adopt Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of" ("FAS No. 121") during the year ending June 30, 1996. Adoption of FAS No. 121 will not have a significant effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities result from temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. The Company adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" effective July 1, 1993. The adoption of SFAS No. 109 did not have a significant effect on the Company's results of operations for the periods presented. No valuation allowance resulted from the adoption of SFAS No. 109. DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS Policy acquisition costs, including commissions, premium taxes and other acquisition costs related to the production or renewal of workers' compensation and indemnity business, are deferred. Such costs are amortized as the related premiums are earned. If it is determined that future policy revenues on existing insurance contracts are not adequate to cover related losses and expenses, deferred policy acquisition costs are written down. However, to date, no write-downs have been made. Earnings on invested funds between the time of premium receipts and related claim payments are considered in determining whether a premium deficiency exists. Deferred policy acquisition costs totaled $14,743,000 and $20,824,000 at June 30, 1994 and 1995 and are included in other assets. DIVIDENDS TO POLICYHOLDERS Dividends to workers' compensation policyholders are generally declared 18 months after expiration of the policies. A provision is made for estimated dividends to be paid related to premium revenue recognized. EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus common stock equivalent shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. Earnings per share has been restated for all periods presented to reflect the mergers of CMC, OHS, CareFlorida and TDMC accounted for as poolings of interests as discussed in Note 1. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. 39 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 3 -- INVESTMENTS The amortized cost and market value of fixed maturity investments as of June 30, 1994, were as follows (in thousands):

41 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 4 -- LOSSES AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES (CONTINUED) During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, the Company experienced favorable loss and loss adjustment expense reserve development of $7,614,000. This reduction of the estimated loss and loss adjustment expense is primarily related to the re-estimated liability for the 1993 and 1994 accident years. NOTE 5 -- EXCESS LIABILITY INSURANCE AND REINSURANCE Under reinsurance agreements, the Company reinsures certain workers' compensation risks to other insurance companies. Reinsurance contracts do not relieve the Company from its obligations to policyholders. Failure of reinsurers to honor their obligations could result in losses to the Company; consequently, allowances are established for amounts deemed uncollectible. The Company regularly evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers. Based on this evaluation, management believes the reinsurers are creditworthy and that any potential losses on these agreements will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company maintains letters of credit or trust agreements with each unauthorized reinsurer in the event that the unauthorized reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations. The Company maintains specific excess reinsurance on workers' compensation which provides coverage in excess of $500,000 per incident for policy years 1994 and forward, in excess of $350,000 per incident for policy years 1992 and 1993 and in excess of $250,000 per incident for policy years 1989 through 1991. The agreements provide coverage up to a maximum of $60 million per incident, including the Company's retention. In addition, the Company also maintained a pro rata reinsurance agreement wherein the reinsurer assumed a proportional amount of net premiums written and related losses. The quota share percentage ranged from 5% to 40% (5% at June 30, 1994) during the year ended June 30, 1994. As of July 1, 1994 the quota share agreement was terminated. The effect of reinsurance on workers' compensation premium written and earned, and losses incurred for the eleven months from August 1, 1993 (date of acquisition) to June 30, 1994 and the year ended June 30, 1995 is as follows (in thousands):

At June 30, 1995, the Company has an aggregate recoverable for workers' compensation losses, paid and unpaid, including incurred but not reported, loss adjustment expenses, and unearned premiums with a carrying value of $86,272,000 with a single reinsurer. 42 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 5 -- EXCESS LIABILITY INSURANCE AND REINSURANCE (CONTINUED) The Company's HMO subsidiaries purchase individual excess liability insurance for hospital costs in excess of deductible amounts.

In June 1993, the Company issued $125,000,000 of senior notes due June 1, 2003 ("Senior Notes"). The Senior Notes bear interest at 7 3/4% which is due semi-annually on December 1 and June 1. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company, will rank PARI PASSU with all future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company and are effectively subordinated to creditors of the Company's subsidiaries. The indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, (i) restrict the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined) to (a) pay dividends and make other distributions and certain investments, (b) grant liens on their assets, (c) enter into or permit certain sale and lease-back transactions or (d) engage in certain mergers, consolidations and sales of assets, and (ii) restrict the ability of the Company's Restricted Subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness or issue shares of preferred stock. 43 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 7 -- NOTES PAYABLE, CAPITAL LEASES AND OTHER FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS (CONTINUED) The Company has a $300 million unsecured revolving credit agreement with Citicorp USA, Inc., as Administrative Agent for the lenders thereto (the "Credit Agreement") which expires December 5, 1999. Principal amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company's option, at either Citibank's base rate or the Eurodollar rate plus a margin depending upon the Company's public debt rating or level of total debt to total capitalization. Any interest payments are due quarterly and principal is due at maturity. The agreement contains customary terms, events of default and covenants (including financial covenants related to net worth, fixed charge coverage and total debt to total capitalization) which, among other things, limit the incurring of additional debt. The Credit Agreement also limits the ability of the Company to make cash dividends and stock repurchases if the aggregate amount of such dividends and repurchases exceeds 50% of the cumulative consolidated net income of the Company beginning with the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, plus the after tax effect of up to $125 million of restructuring charges, to the extent deducted from earnings, plus $25 million after June 30, 1995. As of June 30, 1995, the amount available for cash dividends and stock repurchases under the Credit Agreement was approximately $108,189,000. Subsequent to June 30, 1995, the Company drew an additional $40 million under the Credit Agreement. The Company leases some of its data processing and telecommunications equipment under capital leases that provide for minimum annual rentals and purchase options. Equipment under capital leases was $25,127,000 and $36,898,000 at June 30, 1994 and 1995 and the related accumulated depreciation was $12,308,000, and $15,202,000 at June 30, 1994 and 1995.

NOTE 9 -- CAPITAL STOCK PREFERRED STOCK The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of $1 par value preferred stock. No preferred stock was outstanding as of June 30, 1994 or 1995. STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN The Company's Stockholder Rights Plan provides for distribution of Rights (as defined in the Stockholder Rights Plan) to holders of outstanding shares of common stock. Except as set forth below, each Right, when exercisable, entitles the stockholder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth share of a new series of the Company's preferred stock at a price of $105 per share, subject to adjustment. The Rights are not currently exercisable, but would become exercisable if certain events occurred related to a person or group ("Acquiring Person") acquiring or attempting to acquire 15% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock. In the event that the Rights become exercisable, each Right (except for Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person, which become null and void) would entitle the holder to purchase, for the exercise price then in effect, shares of the Company's common stock having a value of twice the exercise price. The Rights may be redeemed by the Board of Directors in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.01 per Right. The Rights have no voting or dividend privileges and are attached to, and do not trade separately from, the common stock. A total of 20,000 shares of preferred stock were reserved for future issuance under this Rights Agreement, which expire on October 10, 2001. AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK In October 1992, the Company's stockholders approved an increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 to 100,000,000. 46 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 9 -- CAPITAL STOCK (CONTINUED) STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM In April 1993, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the establishment of a stock repurchase program which, as amended, authorizes acquisition from time to time, of up to 5.7 million shares of its outstanding common stock in the open market.

DIVIDENDS PAID During the year ended June 30, 1994, CareFlorida paid cash dividends of $2 million on its common stock. As discussed in Note 1, the Company's consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the results of CareFlorida in accordance with the pooling of interest method of accounting. Other than the CareFlorida dividend described above, the Company has never paid cash dividends on its common stock. The Company presently intends to retain its earnings for the development of its business and does not anticipate paying cash dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future. STOCK OPTIONS Under the Company's Restated and Amended 1990 Stock Option Plan (the "1990 Plan"), options may be either incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options which expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant.

The related tax benefit is credited to common stock. The Company makes no charges against capital with respect to options granted. NOTE 10 -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN The Company has reserved 750,000 shares of common stock under an employee stock purchase plan which became effective October 1, 1990. Full-time employees of the Company and substantially all of its subsidiaries are eligible to participate in this Plan if they have been continuously employed by the Company for not less than six months. Employees electing to participate authorize payroll 48 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 10 -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED) deductions of up to 10% of their base compensation to purchase shares of common stock at 85% of the then fair market value of the stock on the date of purchase. During the years ended June 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995, 19,775, 30,413 and 39,389 shares of common stock were purchased under this plan. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS The Company sponsors several defined contribution retirement plans intended to be qualified under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Participation in the plans is available to substantially all employees. Generally, employees may contribute up to 10% of their annual compensation to the plans on a pre-tax basis and up to 10% on an after-tax basis. Under the plans, the Company makes matching contributions of up to 6% of each participating employee's base salary. The Company's contributions to the plans totaled $6,824,000, $5,961,000, and $4,173,000 for the years ended June 30, 1993, 1994, and 1995. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN Under the Company's deferred compensation plan certain members of management, highly compensated employees and non-employee Board members may defer payment of up to 90% of their compensation. The Company makes matching contributions subject to a vesting schedule, of up to 10% of an employee participant's compensation if the participant's base salary is at least $100,000. The deferred compensation, together with Company matching amounts and accumulated interest which is accrued but unfunded, is distributable in cash by lump sum or in monthly, quarterly or annual installments (not exceeding 20 years) upon the date of distribution elected by the participant, termination of employment or the earlier of the date of distribution elected or termination of employment. At June 30, 1994 and 1995, the liability under this deferred compensation plan amounted to $4,769,000 and $9,139,000. The Company's expense under the plan totaled $1,415,000, $1,664,000 and $1,955,000 for the years ended June 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995. During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company amended the plan by increasing the interest rate paid to participants to 140% of Moody's corporate bond rate and by allowing participants to receive 90% of vested funds before scheduled distributions by irrevocably forfeiting the remaining 10%. During 1993, TDMC established a deferred compensation plan which called for payment of deferred compensation to TDMC physicians with five years of service at termination of employment (the "TDMC Plan"); as part of the merger of TDMC with the Company the TDMC Plan was frozen in November 1994 and the present value of each participant's benefits was established. Under the terms of the TDMC Plan, interest accrues at the Citibank base rate plus 1/4%. The deferred compensation is distributable in annual installments (not to exceed 10) upon termination of employment. At June 30, 1994 and 1995, the liability under this deferred compensation plan amounted to $5,330,000 and $6,389,0000. The Company's expense under the plan totaled $2,281,000, $2,885,000 and $765,000 for the years ended June 30, 1993, 1994, and 1995. DEFINED BENEFIT RETIREMENT PLANS One of the Company's subsidiaries offers a non-contributory defined benefit retirement plan ("Retirement Plan") covering substantially all of its employees. The Retirement Plan is designed to meet the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The benefits are primarily based upon years of service and compensation. 49 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 10 -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED) During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, the Company adopted two unfunded non-qualified defined benefit pension plans, a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and a Directors' Retirement Plan (collectively the "SERP"), which cover key executives, as selected by the Board of Directors, and nonemployee directors. Currently there are sixteen participants in the plans. Benefits are based on years of service and compensation in the last five years of employment, or the highest three years within the last 10 years of service. The discount rate and rate of increase in future compensation levels used in determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligations were 7.5% and 6% respectively, in 1993, 1994, and 1995 for the Retirement Plan, and 8% and 4%, in 1995 for the SERP. The tables below sets forth the funded status and amounts recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the Retirement Plan and the SERP are as follows (in thousands):

During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company adopted an unfunded Executive Retiree Medical Plan, which covers key executives, as selected by the Board of Directors, and their spouses and dependents. The plan provides medical, dental, and vision benefits during retirement. At June 30, 1995, the projected benefit obligation was $343,000, the unrecognized net transition obligation was $194,000, the unrecognized net loss was $63,000, and the pension liability was $86,000. The components of postretirement benefit expense for the year ended June 30, 1995 included service cost of $45,000, interest cost of $19,000, and net amortization and deferral of $22,000 for total benefit expense of $86,000. The medical cost trend rate assumed was 14%, trending down to 6.5% over a ten year period. The weighted average discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at June 30, 1995 was 7.5%. The Company purchases company-owned life insurance policies to cover the cost of benefits under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, the Directors' Retirement Plan, the Executive Retiree Medical Plan, and the deferred compensation plan. The cash surrender value of these policies at June 30, 1995, included in other assets, was $13,090,000. 50 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 11 -- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In December 1992, April 1993 and August 1994, as part of the consolidation of health care delivery systems resulting from the acquisition of CMC, a senior officer of the Company acquired two independent practice associations ("IPAs") which contract with physicians to provide medical services to the Company's enrollees. During fiscal 1995, an additional IPA was formed by a senior officer of the Company. During the years ended June 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995, charges for medical services provided by these IPAs to the Company's enrollees totaled approximately $5,645,000, $20,562,000 and $40,070,000. In April 1993, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with one of the IPAs, the terms of which restrict the ability of the IPA and its sole shareholder to pay dividends, to incur additional indebtedness, to transfer shares, or to otherwise merge, sell or dispose of assets. The credit agreement bears interest at the rate of prime plus 2% which is payable quarterly. Principal is due on demand, or if no demand, no later than April 30, 1997. At June 30, 1994 and 1995, $3,900,000 and $5,300,000 was outstanding under the credit agreement. During 1994, the Company contracted with two affiliated professional corporations (professional medical corporations each owned by a Company-affiliated physician) to provide health care services to the Company's enrollees at Company-managed health care centers. During the years ended June 30, 1994 and 1995, charges for medical services provided by these affiliated professional corporations to the Company's enrollees totaled approximately $1,700,000 and $85,000,000. The Company provides facilities and support functions to the health care centers and is reimbursed in the form of a management fee by the affiliated professional corporations. The management fee totaled $4,307,000 and $55,271,000 for the years ended June 30, 1994 and 1995. The Company has revolving credit agreements with the affiliated professional corporations the terms of which restrict the ability of the professional medical corporations to pay dividends and bonuses, acquire assets, enter into liens, incur additional indebtedness or to otherwise merge, sell or dispose of assets. The credit agreements bear interest at 7.75% and prime plus 1%, respectively. Principal and interest is due January 22, 1996 subject to automatic one year extensions of the maturity date unless the Company provides written notice of intent to terminate the agreements. At June 30, 1994 and 1995, $7,158,000 and $35,425,000 was outstanding under these agreements. Management evaluates the collectibility of these loans and, if necessary, reserves are recorded to reduce carrying amounts to amounts deemed to be recoverable. No reserves have been deemed necessary as of the dates of these financial statements. NOTE 12 -- REGULATORY AND CONTRACTUAL CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS The Company's HMO subsidiaries are required to maintain a minimum level of tangible net equity or minimum capital and surplus. The required total tangible net equity and minimum capital and surplus for all HMOs is approximately $34,310,000 at June 30, 1995. Under certain government contracts, Federal Services is required to maintain a current ratio of 1:1 and certain HMO subsidiaries are required to maintain a current ratio of 1:1 under Medicaid contracts. The Company's life, accident and health insurance subsidiaries are required by the Departments of Insurance in the states in which they are licensed to maintain minimum capital and surplus aggregating $17,250,000. The Company's workers' compensation insurance subsidiaries are required by the Departments of Insurance in the states in which they are licensed to maintain minimum capital and surplus of $5,000,000. The Company and its subsidiaries are in compliance with the applicable minimum regulatory and capital requirements described above. As a result of the above requirements and certain other regulatory requirements, certain subsidiaries are subject to restrictions on their ability to make dividend payments, loans or other transfers of 51 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 12 -- REGULATORY AND CONTRACTUAL CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS (CONTINUED) cash to the Company. Such restrictions, unless amended or waived, limit the use of any cash generated by these subsidiaries to pay obligations of the Company. As of June 30, 1995, restricted net assets of these subsidiaries totaled approximately $59,785,000. NOTE 13 -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company entered into a $60 million tax retention operating lease with NationsBank of Texas, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders who are parties thereto and First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., as Owner Trustee (the "TROL" agreement) for the construction of health care centers and corporate facilities. Under the TROL agreement, rental payments commence upon completion of construction, with a guarantee of 87% to the lessor of the residual value of properties leased at the end of the lease term. After the initial five year noncancelable lease term, the lease may be extended by agreement of the parties or the Company must purchase or arrange for sale of the leased properties. The Company has committed to a guaranteed residual value of $4.7 million at June 30, 1995 under this agreement. The future minimum rental payments required under operating leases for all of the Company's office space and equipment and for properties under construction that have initial or remaining noncancelable lease terms in excess of one year are as follows (in thousands):

The Company maintains general liability and managed care professional liability and directors and officers insurance and other insurance coverage in amounts the Company believes to be adequate. The Company requires contracting health care providers to maintain malpractice insurance coverage in amounts customary in the industry. In the ordinary course of its business the Company is a party to claims and legal actions by enrollees, providers and others. The Company also undergoes governmental audits and investigations with regard to its government contracts and with respect to operations of its HMO, insurance, and third party administrator subsidiaries. After consulting with legal counsel, the Company is of the opinion that any liability that may ultimately be incurred as a result of these claims, legal actions, audits or investigations will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. 52 FOUNDATION HEALTH CORPORATION SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULE CONDENSED BALANCE SHEETS (IN THOUSANDS) ASSETS

SECTION VI. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. A. TERMS. 1. STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT. Each grant of an Option under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement between the Optionee and the Company. Such Option shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which the Committee deems appropriate for inclusion in a Stock Option Agreement.

Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the Exercise Price which shall be 100 percent of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. The Exercise Price shall be payable in a form described in Section VII. 4. EXERCISABILITY AND TERM. Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the date when all or any installment of the Option is to become exercisable. The vesting of any Option shall be determined by the Committee at its sole discretion. A Stock Option Agreement may provide for accelerated exercisability in the event of the Optionee's death, Total and Permanent Disability or retirement, a change in control with respect to FHC or other events. The Stock Option Agreement shall also specify the term of the Option. The term shall not exceed 10 years from the date of grant. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Committee at its sole discretion shall determine when an Option is to expire. B. WITHHOLDING TAXES. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Optionee shall make such arrangements as the Committee may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such exercise. C. NONTRANSFERABILITY. No Option shall be transferable by the Optionee other than by will, by a beneficiary designation executed by the Optionee and delivered to FHC or by the laws of descent and distribution. An Option may be exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee only by him or her or by his or her guardian or legal representative. No Option or interest therein may be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Optionee during his 3 or her lifetime, whether by operation of law or otherwise, or be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process. D. TERMINATION OF SERVICE (EXCEPT BY DEATH). If an Optionee's Service terminates for any reason other than his or her death, then his or her Option(s) shall expire on the earliest of the following occasions: 1. The expiration date determined pursuant to Subsection A(4) above; 2. The date 90 days after the termination of his or her Service for any reason other than Total and Permanent Disability; or 3. The date 12 months after the termination of his or her Service by reason of Total and Permanent Disability. The Optionee may exercise all or part of his or her Option(s) at any time before the expiration of such Option(s) under the preceding sentence, but only to the extent that such Option(s) had become exercisable before his or her Service terminated or became exercisable as a result of the termination. The balance of such Option(s) shall lapse when the Optionee's Service terminates. In the event that the Optionee dies after the termination of his or her Service but before the expiration of his or her Option(s), all or part of such Option(s) may be exercised (prior to expiration) by the executors or administrators of the Optionee's estate or by any person who has acquired such Option(s) directly from him or her by bequest, beneficiary designation or inheritance, but only to the extent that such Option(s) had become exercisable before his or her Service terminated or became exercisable as a result of the termination. E. LEAVES OF ABSENCE. For purposes of Subsection D above, Service shall be deemed to continue while the Optionee is on a military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence (as determined by the Committee) which has been approved by the Company in writing. F. DEATH OF OPTIONEE. If an Optionee dies while he or she is in Service, then his or her Option(s) shall expire on the earlier of the following dates: 1. The expiration date determined pursuant to Subsection A(4) above; or 2. The date 12 months after his or her death. All or part of the Optionee's Option(s) may be exercised at any time before the expiration of such Option(s) under the preceding sentence by the executors or administrators of his or her estate or by any person who has acquired such Option(s) directly from him or her by bequest, beneficiary designation or inheritance, but only to the extent that such Option(s) had become exercisable before his or her death or became exercisable as a result of his or her death. The balance of such Option(s) shall lapse when the Optionee dies. G. NO RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. An Optionee, or a transferee of an Optionee, shall have no rights as a stockholder of FHC with respect to any Shares covered by his or her Option until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate for such Shares. No adjustments shall be made, except as provided in Section VIII. H. MODIFICATION, EXTENSION AND ASSUMPTION OF OPTIONS. Within the limitations of the Plan, the Committee may modify, extend or arrange for the assumption of outstanding Options or may accept the cancellation of outstanding Options (whether granted by FHC or another issuer) in return for the grant of new Options for the same or a different number of Shares and at the same or a different price. The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of an Option shall, without the consent of the Optionee, impair his or her rights or increase his or her obligations under such Option. I. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF SHARES. Any Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be subject to such special forfeiture conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal and other transfer restrictions as the Committee may determine. Such restrictions shall be set forth in the applicable Stock Option Agreement and shall apply in addition to any general restrictions that may apply to all holders of Shares. SECTION VII. PAYMENT FOR SHARES. A. GENERAL RULE. The entire Exercise Price of Shares issued under the Plan shall 4 be payable in lawful money of the United States of America at the time when such Shares are purchased, except that FHC (at its sole discretion) may accept payment in one or more of the forms described below: 1. SURRENDER OF STOCK. To the extent that this Subsection (1) is applicable, payment may be made all or in part with Shares which have already been owned by the Optionee or his or her representative for more than 12 months and which are surrendered to FHC in good form for transfer. Such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date when the new Shares are purchased under the Plan. 2. EXERCISE/SALE. To the extent that this Subsection (2) is applicable, payment may be made by the delivery (on a form prescribed by FHC) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker approved by FHC to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to FHC in payment of all or part of the Exercise Price and any withholding taxes. 3. EXERCISE/PLEDGE. To the extent that this Subsection (3) is applicable, payment may be made by the delivery (on a form prescribed by FHC) of an irrevocable direction to pledge Shares to a securities broker or lender approved by FHC, as security for a loan and to deliver all or part of the loan proceeds to FHC in payment of all or part of the Exercise Price and any withholding taxes. 4. PROMISSORY NOTE. To the extent that this Subsection (4) is applicable, a portion of the Exercise Price of Shares issued under the Plan may be payable by a full-recourse promissory note, provided that (i) the par value of such Shares must be paid in lawful money of the United States of America at the time when such Shares are purchased, (ii) the Shares are security for payment of the principal amount of the promissory note and interest thereon, and (iii) the interest rate payable under the terms of the promissory note shall be no less than the minimum rate (if any) required to avoid the imputation of additional interest under the Code. Subject to the foregoing, the Committee (in its sole discretion) shall specify the term, interest rate, amortization requirements (if any), and other provisions of such note. SECTION VIII. ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES. A. GENERAL. In the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Stock, a declaration of a dividend payable in Shares, a declaration of a dividend payable in a form other than Shares in an amount that has a material effect on the value of Shares, a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of Shares, a recapitalization or a similar occurrence, the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments in one or more of (i) the number of Shares available for future grants under Section V, (ii) the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Option, or (iii) the Exercise Price under each outstanding Option. B. MERGER; CONSOLIDATION. In the event that FHC is a party to a merger or consolidation, outstanding Options shall be subject to the agreement of merger or consolidation. Such agreement may provide, without limitation, (i) for the assumption of outstanding Options by the surviving corporation or its parent, (ii) for their continuation by FHC, if FHC is a surviving corporation, (iii) for payment of a cash settlement equal to the difference between the amount to be paid for one Share under such agreement and the Exercise Price, or (iv) for the acceleration of their exercisability followed by the cancellation of Options not exercised. In the case of Options that have been outstanding for less than 12 months, a cancellation need not be preceded by an acceleration. C. RESERVATION OF RIGHTS. Except as provided in this Section VIII, an Optionee shall have no rights by reason of (i) any subdivision or consolidation of shares of Stock of any class, (ii) the payment of any dividend, or (iii) any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class.

Notwithstanding any transfer of all or a portion of the transferor's interest as provided in this Section 12, the transferor shall be entitled to all benefits accrued and all rights vested prior to such transfer including, without limitation, rights to indemnification under any such document. SECTION 13 INDEMNIFICATION. A. GENERAL INDEMNITY. Whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Indemnity Provider hereby assumes liability for and agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person on an After Tax Basis from and against any Claims, which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against an Indemnified Person (other than to the extent such Claims arise from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful breach of such Indemnified Person) in any way relating to or arising or alleged to arise out of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, the Lease or any other Operative Agreement or on or with respect to any Property or any component thereof, including, without limitation, Claims in any way relating to or arising or alleged to arise out of (a) the financing, refinancing, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, design, construction, development, delivery, acceptance, nondelivery, leasing, subleasing, possession, use, operation, repair, modification, transportation, condition, sale, return, repossession (whether by summary proceedings or otherwise), or any other disposition of a Property or any part thereof, including the acquisition, holding or disposition of any interest in any Property, lease or agreement comprising a portion of any thereof; (b) any latent or other defects in any property whether or not discoverable by an Indemnified Person or the Indemnity Provider; (c) a violation of Environmental Laws, Environmental Claims or other loss of or damage to any property or the environment relating to any Property, the Lease, the Agency Agreement or the Indemnity Provider; (d) the Operative Agreements, or any transaction contemplated thereby; (e) any breach by the Indemnity Provider of any of its representations or warranties under the Operative Agreements to which the Indemnity Provider is a party or failure by the Indemnity Provider to perform or observe any covenant or agreement to be performed by it under any of the Operative Agreement; (f) the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Operative Agreement, in respect of the application of Parts 4 and 5 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA; and (g) personal injury, death or property damage, including Claims based on strict or absolute liability in tort. If a written Claim is made against any Indemnified Person or if any proceeding shall be commenced against such Indemnified Person (including a written notice of such proceeding), for any Claim, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Indemnity Provider in writing and shall not take action with respect to such Claim without the consent of the Indemnity Provider for thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice by the Indemnity Provider; provided, however, that, in the case of any such Claim, if action shall be required by law or regulation to be taken prior to the end of such 30-day period, such Indemnified Person shall, in such notice to the Indemnity Provider, inform the Indemnity Provider of such shorter period, and no action shall be taken with respect to such Claim without the consent of the Indemnity Provider before 7 days before the end of such shorter period; provided, further, that the failure of such Indemnified Person to give the notices referred to in this sentence shall not diminish the Indemnity Provider's obligation hereunder except to the extent such failure materially precludes the Indemnity Provider from contesting such Claim. If, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Person (or such shorter period as the Indemnified Person has notified the Indemnity Provider is required by law or regulation for the Indemnified Person to respond to such Claim), the Indemnity Provider shall request in writing that such Indemnified Person respond to such Claim, the Indemnified Person shall, at the expense of the Indemnity Provider, in good faith conduct and control such action (including, without limitation, by pursuit of appeals) (provided, however, that (A) if such Claim can be pursued by the Indemnity Provider on behalf of such Indemnified Person, the Indemnified Person, at the Indemnity Provider's request, shall allow the Indemnity Provider to conduct and control the response to such Claim and (B) in the case of any Claim, the Indemnified Person may request the Indemnity Provider to conduct and control the response to such Claim (with counsel to be selected by the Indemnity Provider and consented to by such Indemnified Person, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that (i) any Indemnified Person may retain separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnity Provider in the event of a conflict that could have a materially adverse effect on the Indemnified Person and (ii) any such separate counsel shall be directed by the Indemnified Person to cooperate in good faith with the Indemnity Provider and its counsel)) by, in the sole discretion of the Person conducting and controlling the response to such Claim (1) resisting payment thereof, (2) not paying the same except under protest, if protest is necessary and proper, (3) if the payment be made, using reasonable efforts to obtain a refund thereof in appropriate administrative and judicial proceedings, or (4) taking such other action as is reasonably requested by the Indemnity Provider from time to time. The party controlling the response to any Claim shall consult in good faith with the non-controlling party and shall keep the non-controlling party reasonably informed as to the conduct of the response to such Claim; provided, that all decisions ultimately shall be made in the discretion of the controlling party. The parties agree that an Indemnified Person may at any time decline to take further action with respect to the response to such Claim and may settle such Claim if such settlement would not have a materially adverse effect on the Lessee or the Guarantor and if such Indemnified Person shall waive its rights to any indemnity from the Indemnity Provider that otherwise would be payable in respect of such Claim (and any future Claim, the pursuit of which is precluded by reason of such resolution of such Claim) and shall pay to the Indemnity Provider any amount previously paid or advanced by the Indemnity Provider pursuant to this Section 13.1 by way of indemnification or advance for the payment of an amount regarding such Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.1, an Indemnified Person shall not be required to take any action and no Indemnity Provider shall be permitted to respond to any Claim in its own name or that of the Indemnified Person unless (A) the Indemnity Provider shall have agreed to pay and shall pay to such Indemnified Person on demand and on an After Tax Basis all reasonable costs, losses and expenses that such Indemnified Person actually incurs in connection with such Claim, including, without limitation, all reasonable legal, accounting and investigatory fees and disbursements, (B) in the case of a Claim that must be pursued in the name of an Indemnified Person (or an Affiliate thereof), the amount of the potential indemnity (taking into account all similar or logically related Claims that have been or could be raised for which the Indemnity Provider may be liable to pay an indemnity under this Section 13.1) exceeds $75,000, (C) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably determined that the action to be taken will not result in any material danger of sale, forfeiture or loss of any Property, or any part thereof or interest therein, will not interfere with the payment of Rent, and will not result in risk of criminal liability, (D) if such Claim shall involve the payment of any amount prior to the resolution of such Claim, the Indemnity Provider shall provide to the Indemnified Person an interest-free advance in an amount equal to the amount that the Indemnified Person is required to pay (with no additional net after-tax cost to such Indemnified Person), and (E) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In addition, an Indemnified Person shall not be required to contest any Claim in its name (or that of an Affiliate) if the subject matter thereof shall be of a continuing nature and shall have previously been decided adversely by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to the contest provisions of this Section 13.1, unless there shall have been a change in law (or interpretation thereof) and the Indemnified Person shall have received, at the Indemnity Provider's expense, an opinion of independent counsel selected by the Indemnified Person and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnity Provider stating that as a result of such change in law (or interpretation thereof), it is more likely than not that the Indemnified Person will prevail in such contest. B. GENERAL TAX INDEMNITY. (a) The Indemnity Provider shall pay and assume liability for, and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect and defend each Property and all Indemnified Persons, and hold them harmless against, all Impositions on an After Tax Basis, and all payments pursuant to the Operative Agreements shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present and future Impositions. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13.2(a) hereof, franchise taxes or taxes imposed on the overall gross or net income of an Indemnified Person (other than taxes in the nature of sales, use, rental, transfer, property or similarly-based taxes) shall be excluded from the indemnity required by Section 13.2(a); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the provisions of this Section 13.2(b) shall not exclude from the indemnity described in Section 13.2(a) hereof (i) income taxes imposed on the Lessor to the extent that such taxes do not relieve an Indemnified Person other than Lessor from income taxes that would not have been subject to indemnification under Section 13.2(a), and (ii) franchise or income taxes to the extent that such taxes are imposed on an Indemnified Person by any state or local jurisdiction in which the Indemnified Person would not be subject to such taxes but for the location, possession or use of any Property in such jurisdiction (it being understood that any such indemnity would be payable only to the extent of the net harm incurred by such Indemnified Person from such taxes, taking into account any incremental tax benefit in another tax jurisdiction resulting from payment of such taxes). (c) (i) Subject to the terms of Section 13.2(f), the Indemnity Provider shall pay or cause to be paid all Impositions directly to the taxing authorities where feasible and otherwise to the Indemnified Person, as appropriate, and the Indemnity Provider shall at its own expense, upon such Indemnified Person's reasonable request, furnish to such Indemnified Person copies of official receipts or other satisfactory proof evidencing such payment. (ii) In the case of Impositions for which no contest is conducted pursuant to Section 13.2(f) and which the Indemnity Provider pays directly to the taxing authorities, the Indemnity Provider shall pay such Impositions prior to the latest time permitted by the relevant taxing authority for timely payment. In the case of Impositions for which the Indemnity Provider reimburses an Indemnified Person, the Indemnity Provider shall do so within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnity Provider of demand by such Indemnified Person describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Imposition and the basis for the demand (including the computation of the amount payable). In the case of Impositions for which a contest is conducted pursuant to Section 13.2(f), the Indemnity Provider shall pay such Impositions or reimburse such Indemnified Person for such Impositions, to the extent not previously paid or reimbursed pursuant to subsection (a), prior to the latest time permitted by the relevant taxing authority for timely payment after conclusion of all contests under Section 13.2(f). (d) The Indemnity Provider shall be responsible for preparing and filing any real and personal property or ad valorem tax returns in respect of each Property. In case any other report or tax return shall be required to be made with respect to any obligations of the Indemnity Provider under or arising out of subsection (a) and of which the Indemnity Provider has knowledge, the Indemnity Provider, at its sole cost and expense, shall notify the relevant Indemnified Person of such requirement and (except if such Indemnified Person notifies the Indemnity Provider that such Indemnified Person intends to file such report or return) (A) to the extent required or permitted by and consistent with Legal Requirements, make and file in Indemnity Provider's name such return, statement or report; and (B) in the case of any other such return, statement or report required to be made in the name of such Indemnified Person, advise such Indemnified Person of such fact and prepare such return, statement or report for filing by such Indemnified Person or, where such return, statement or report shall be required to reflect items in addition to any obligations of the Indemnity Provider under or arising out of subsection (a), provide such Indemnified Person at the Indemnity Provider's expense with information sufficient to permit such return, statement or report to be properly made with respect to any obligations of the Indemnity Provider under or arising out of subsection (a). Such Indemnified Person shall, upon the Indemnity Provider's request, provide any data maintained by such Indemnified Person (and not otherwise available to or within the control of the Indemnity Provider) with respect to each Property which the Indemnity Provider may reasonably require to prepare any required tax returns or reports, and the Indemnity Provider shall reimburse the Indemnified Person for any third party and out-of-pocket costs that the Indemnified Person may incur in providing such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (d), the Indemnity Provider shall not be required to prepare any income or franchise tax returns for any Indemnified Person. (e) If an Indemnified Person does not notify the Indemnity Provider in writing within thirty (30) days after its receipt of a written Claim for any Imposition against such Indemnified Person (or within such shorter period of time as may be necessary to notify the Indemnity Provider at least seven (7) days prior to the time that action is required by law or regulation to be taken with respect to such Claim, but in no event less than ten (10) days after the Indemnified Person's receipt of such Claim), then the Indemnity Provider shall have no obligation under Section 13.2(a) to indemnify such Indemnified Person for any interest, penalties or additions to tax attributable to the period during which notice is not provided as required by this subsection (e). (f) (i) If a written Claim is made against any Indemnified Person or if any proceeding shall be commenced against such Indemnified Person (including a written notice of such proceeding), for any Impositions, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Indemnity Provider in writing and shall not take action with respect to such Claim or proceeding without the consent of the Indemnity Provider for thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice by the Indemnity Provider; provided, however, that, in the case of any such Claim or proceeding, if action shall be required by law or regulation to be taken prior to the end of such 30-day period, such Indemnified Person shall, in such notice to the Indemnity Provider, inform the Indemnity Provider of such shorter period, and no action shall be taken with respect to such Claim or proceeding without the consent of the Indemnity Provider before 7 days before the end of such shorter period; provided, further, that the failure of such Indemnified Person to give the notices referred to this sentence shall not diminish the Indemnity Provider's obligation hereunder except to the extent such failure materially precludes the Indemnity Provider from contesting such Claim. (ii) If, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Person (or such shorter period as the Indemnified Person has notified the Indemnity Provider is required by law or regulation for the Indemnified Person to commence such contest), the Indemnity Provider shall request in writing that such Indemnified Person contest such Imposition, the Indemnified Person shall, at the expense of the Indemnity Provider, in good faith conduct and control such contest (including, without limitation, by pursuit of appeals) relating to the validity, applicability or amount of such Impositions (provided, however, that (A) if such contest involves a tax other than a tax on net income and can be pursued independently from any other proceeding involving a tax liability of such Indemnified Person, the Indemnified Person, at the Indemnity Provider's request, shall allow the Indemnity Provider to conduct and control such contest and (B) in the case of any contest, the Indemnified Person may request the Indemnity Provider to conduct and control such contest (with counsel to be selected by the Indemnity Provider and consented to by such Indemnified Person, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that any Indemnified Person may retain separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnity Provider in the event of a conflict)) by, in the sole discretion of the Person conducting and controlling such contest, (1) resisting payment thereof, (2) not paying the same except under protest, if protest is necessary and proper, (3) if the payment be made, using reasonable efforts to obtain a refund thereof in appropriate administrative and judicial proceedings, or (4) taking such other action as is reasonably requested by the Indemnity Provider from time to time. (iii) The party controlling any contest shall consult in good faith with the non-controlling party and shall keep the non- controlling party reasonably informed as to the conduct of such contest; provided, that all decisions ultimately shall be made in the sole discretion of the controlling party. The parties agree that an Indemnified Person may at any time decline to take further action with respect to the contest of any Imposition and may settle such contest if such Indemnified Person shall waive its rights to any indemnity from the Indemnity Provider that otherwise would be payable in respect of such Claim (and any future Claim by any taxing authority, the contest of which is precluded by reason of such resolution of such Claim) and shall pay to the Indemnity Provider any amount previously paid or advanced by the Indemnity Provider pursuant to this Section 13.2 by way of indemnification or advance for the payment of an Imposition other than expenses of such contest. (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.2, an Indemnified Person shall not be required to take any action and no Indemnity Provider shall be permitted to contest any Impositions in its own name or that of the Indemnified Person unless (A) the Indemnity Provider shall have agreed to pay and shall pay to such Indemnified Person on demand and on an After Tax Basis all reasonable third party and out-of-pocket costs, losses and expenses that such Indemnified Person actually incurs in connection with contesting such Impositions, including, without limitation, all reasonable legal, accounting and investigatory fees and disbursements, (B) in the case of a Claim that must be pursued in the name of an Indemnified Person (or an Affiliate thereof), the amount of the potential indemnity (taking into account all similar or logically related Claims that have been or could be raised in any audit involving such Indemnified Person for which the Indemnity Provider may be liable to pay an indemnity under this Section 13.2) exceeds $75,000, (C) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably determined that the action to be taken will not result in any material danger of sale, forfeiture or loss of any Property, or any part thereof or interest therein, will not interfere with the payment of Rent, and will not result in risk of criminal liability, (D) if such contest shall involve the payment of the Imposition prior to the contest, the Indemnity Provider shall provide to the Indemnified Person an interest-free advance in an amount equal to the Imposition that the Indemnified Person is required to pay (with no additional net after- tax cost to such Indemnified Person), and (E) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In no event shall an Indemnified Person be required to appeal an adverse judicial determination to the United States Supreme Court. In addition, an Indemnified Person shall not be required to contest any Claim in its name (or that of an Affiliate) if the subject matter thereof shall be of a continuing nature and shall have previously been decided adversely by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to the contest provisions of this Section 13.2, unless there shall have been a change in law (or interpretation thereof) and the Indemnified Person shall have received, at the Indemnity Provider's expense, an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by the Indemnified Person and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnity Provider stating that as a result of such change in law (or interpretation thereof), it is more likely than not that the Indemnified Person will prevail in such contest. (g) EXCEPTION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 13.2(a) or (b) hereof, an Indemnity Provider shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnified Person to the extent that any action taken or failed to be taken by any Indemnified Person causes or otherwise results in the amount of any tax-related Imposition or other tax-related indemnifiable liability to be greater than the amount such Imposition or liability would otherwise have been; PROVIDED THAT, this exception shall only apply to the extent that: (i) such action or inaction restricts, limits or otherwise expressly or impliedly modifies or amends one or more of the provision of the Operative Agreements without the consent of the Indemnity Provider and such restriction, limitation or modification results in an increase in the amount of a tax-related Imposition or other tax-related indemnifiable liability; or (ii) such action or inaction constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Indemnified Person, or constitutes a material breach of a covenant applicable to an Indemnified Person under the Operative Agreements. C. JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE INDEMNITY PROVIDER. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of any other Operative Agreement, Foundation Health Medical Services and Foundation Health Corporation hereby acknowledge and agree that such entities have jointly and severally assumed and undertaken the indemnity obligations and other obligations under this Section 13. SECTION 14 MISCELLANEOUS. A. SURVIVAL OF AGREEMENTS.

J. LIABILITY LIMITED. (a) The Agent, the Lessee, the Guarantor and the Holders each acknowledge and agree that the Owner Trustee is (except as otherwise expressly provided herein or therein) entering into this Agreement and the other Operative Agreements to which it is a party (other than the Trust Agreement and to the extent otherwise provided in Section 7.2 of this Agreement), solely in its capacity as trustee under the Trust Agreement and not in its individual capacity and that Trust Company shall not be liable or accountable under any circumstances whatsoever in its individual capacity for or on account of any statements, representations, warranties, covenants or obligations stated to be those of the Owner Trustee, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct and as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the other Operative Agreements. (b) Anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Notes or in any other Operative Agreement notwithstanding, neither the Lessor nor any Holder nor any officer, director, shareholder, or partner thereof, nor any of the successors or assigns of the foregoing (all such Persons being hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Exculpated Persons"), shall be personally liable in any respect for any liability or obligation relating to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Notes. The Agent (for itself and on behalf of the Lenders) agrees that, in the event the Agent or any Lender pursues any remedies available to them under the Credit Agreement, the Notes, this Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Mortgage Instruments or under any other Operative Agreement, neither the Lenders nor the Agent shall have any recourse against any Exculpated Person, for any deficiency, loss or Claim for monetary damages or otherwise resulting therefrom and recourse shall be had solely and exclusively against the Trust Estate and the Lessee; but nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse against or the enforcement of remedies against the Trust Estate in respect of any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained herein, in the Credit Agreement, in the Notes, in the Security Agreement, the Mortgage Instruments or in any other Operative Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, nothing in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Notes, the Security Agreement, the Mortgage Instruments or any other Operative Agreement shall: (i) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or arising under this Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Mortgage Instruments or the Credit Agreement or secured by the Security Agreement, the Mortgage Instruments or any other Operative Agreement, but the same shall continue until paid or discharged; (ii) relieve the Lessor from liability and responsibility for (but only to the extent of the damages arising by reason of): (a) active waste knowingly committed by the Lessor with respect to the Properties or (b) any fraud on the part of the Lessor or any such Exculpated Person; (iii) relieve the Lessor from liability and responsibility for (but only to the extent of the moneys misappropriated, misapplied or not turned over) misappropriation or misapplication by the Lessor (i.e., application in a manner contrary to any Operative Agreement) of any insurance proceeds or condemnation award paid or delivered to the Lessor by any Person other than the Agent, or any deposits or any escrows or amounts owed by the Lessee under the Agency Agreement held by the Lessor, or any rents or other income received by the Lessor from the Lessee that are not turned over to the Agent; or (iv) affect or in any way limit the Agent's rights and remedies under any Operative Agreement with respect to the Rents and its rights and powers thereunder or to obtain a judgment against the Lessor's interest in the Properties or to the extent the Lessor may be personally liable as otherwise contemplated in clauses (ii) and (iii) of this Section. K. RIGHTS OF LESSEE. Notwithstanding any provision of the Operative Agreements, if at any time all obligations (i) of the Owner Trustee under the Credit Agreement and the Security Documents and (ii) of the Lessee under the Operative Agreements have in each case been satisfied or discharged in full, then the Lessee shall be entitled to (a) terminate the Lease and (b) receive all amounts then held under the Operative Agreements and all proceeds with respect to any of the Properties. Upon the termination of the Lease pursuant to the foregoing clause (a), the Lessor shall transfer to the Lessee all of its right, title and interest in and to any Properties then subject to the Lease and any amounts or proceeds referred to in the foregoing clause (b) shall be paid over to the Lessee. L. FURTHER ASSURANCES. The parties hereto shall promptly cause to be taken, executed, acknowledged or delivered, at the sole expense of the Lessee and the Guarantor, all such further acts, conveyances, documents and assurances as the other parties may from time to time reasonably request in order to carry out and effectuate the intent and purposes of this Participation Agreement, the other Operative Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the preparation, execution and filing of any and all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and other filings or registrations which the parties hereto may from time to time request to be filed or effected). The Lessee and the Guarantor, at their own expense and without need of any prior request from any other party, shall take such action as may be necessary (including any action specified in the preceding sentence), or (if Owner Trustee shall so request) as so requested, in order to maintain and protect all security interests provided for hereunder or under any other Operative Agreement.

FOUNDATION HEALTH MEDICAL SERVICES By: --------------------- Name: ------------------- Title: ------------------ EXHIBIT A EXHIBIT C [Outside Counsel Opinion for Lessee and Guarantor] (Pursuant to Section 6.1(c) of the Participation Agreement) __________ ___, 1995 TO THOSE ON THE ATTACHED DISTRIBUTION LIST Re: Tax Retention Operating Lease Financing Provided in favor of Foundation Health Medical Services Dear Sirs: We have acted as special counsel to Foundation Health Medical Services, a California corporation (the "Lessee") and Foundation Health Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Guarantor"), in connection with certain transactions contemplated by the Participation Agreement dated as of __________ ___, 1995 (the "Participation Agreement"), among the Lessee, First Security Bank of Utah, N.A. (the "Owner Trustee"), the Guarantor, ____________________ and __________________, as Holders (the "Holders") and NationsBank of Texas, N.A., as the administrative agent for the Lenders (the "Administrative Agent"). This opinion is delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(c) of the Participation Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein, and not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned thereto in Appendix A to the Participation Agreement. In connection with the foregoing, we have examined originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of the Operative Agreements, and such other corporate documents and records of the Lessee and the Guarantor, certificates of public officials and representatives of the Lessee and the Guarantor as to certain factual matters, and such other instruments and documents which we have deemed necessary or advisable to examine for the purpose of this opinion. With respect to such examination, we have assumed (i) the statements of fact made in all such certificates, documents and instruments are true, accurate and complete; (ii) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Operative Agreements by the parties thereto other than the Lessee or the Guarantor; (iii) the genuineness of all signatures (other than the signatures of persons signing on behalf of the Lessee and the Guarantor), the authenticity and completeness of all documents, certificates, instruments, records and corporate records submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the original instruments of all documents submitted to us as copies, and the authenticity and completeness of the originals of such copies; (iv) that all parties other than the Lessee or the Guarantor have all requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Operative Agreements; and (v) the enforceability of the Operative Agreements against all parties thereto other than the Lessee or the Guarantor. Based on the foregoing, and having due regard for such legal considerations as we deem relevant, and subject to the limitations and assumptions set forth herein, including the matters set forth in the last two paragraphs hereof, we are of the opinion that: (a) The Lessee is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of California and has the corporate power and authority to conduct its business as presently conducted and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Operative Agreements to which it is a party. The Lessee is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in the States of ____________ and ____________ and all other jurisdictions in which its failure to so qualify would materially impair its ability to perform its obligations under the Operative Agreements to which it is a party or its financial position or its business as now and now proposed to be conducted. (b) The Guarantor is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the corporate power and authority to conduct its business as presently conducted and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Operative Agreements to which it is a party. The Guarantor is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which its failure to so qualify would materially impair its ability to perform its obligations under the Operative Agreements to which it is a party or its financial position or its business as now and now proposed to be conducted. (c) The execution, delivery and performance by the Lessee of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Lessee and the Operative Agreements to which the Lessee is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the Lessee. (d) The execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Guarantor and the Operative Agreements to which the Guarantor is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the Guarantor. (e) The Operative Agreements to which the Lessee is a party constitute valid and binding obligations of the Lessee enforceable against the Lessee in accordance with the terms thereof, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (f) The Operative Agreements to which the Guarantor is a party constitute valid and binding obligations of the Guarantor enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with the terms thereof, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing the Owner Trustee or the Agent, as applicable, shall have the right to proceed against the Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement and obtain and enforce a judgment thereunder following an Event of Default without first having to proceed against the Lessee or any other Person or against any security held by the Owner Trustee or the Agent at any time or having to pursue any other remedy available to the Owner Trustee or the Agent under any of the Operative Agreements, and without waiving any security, rights or remedies that the Owner Trustee or the Agent may have under any of the other Operative Agreements. (gP The execution and delivery by the Lessee of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party and compliance by the Lessee with all of the provisions thereof do not and will not (i) contravene the provisions of, or result in any breach of or constitute any default under, or result in the creation of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its property under, its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws or any indenture, mortgage, chattel mortgage, deed of trust, lease, conditional sales contract, bank loan or credit agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Lessee is a party or by which it or any of its property may be bound or affected, or (ii) contravene any Laws or any order of any Governmental Authority applicable to or binding on the Lessee. (h) The execution and delivery by the Guarantor of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party and compliance by the Guarantor with all of the provisions thereof do not and will not (i) contravene the provisions of, or result in any breach of or constitute any default under, or result in the creation of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its property under, its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws or any indenture, mortgage, chattel mortgage, deed of trust, lease, conditional sales contract, bank loan or credit agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of its property may be bound or affected, or (ii) contravene any Laws or any order of any Governmental Authority applicable to or binding on the Guarantor. (i) No Governmental Action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by the Lessee of any of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party. (j) No Governmental Action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by the Guarantor of any of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party. (k) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or to our knowledge, threatened against the Lessee in any court or before any Governmental Authority, that concern any Property or the Lessee's interest therein or that question the validity or enforceability of any Operative Agreement to which the Lessee is a party or the overall transaction described in the Operative Agreements to which the Lessee is a party. (l) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or to our knowledge, threatened against the Guarantor in any court or before any Governmental Authority or that question the validity or enforceability of any Operative Agreement to which the Guarantor is a party or the overall transaction described in the Operative Agreements to which the Guarantor is a party. (m) Neither the nature of the Properties, nor any relationship between the Lessee and any other Person, nor any circumstance in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Agreements to which the Lessee is a party is such as to require any approval of stockholders of, or approval or consent of any trustee or holders of indebtedness of, the Lessee, except for such approvals and consents which have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect. (n) Neither the nature of the Properties, nor any relationship between the Guarantor and any other Person, nor any circumstance in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Agreements to which the Guarantor is a party is such as to require any approval of stockholders of, or approval or consent of any trustee or holders of indebtedness of, the Guarantor, except for such approvals and consents which have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect. (o) The Credit Agreement creates, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, the security interest in the Trust Estate which by its terms it purports to create. (p) The issuance, sale and delivery of the Notes and the issuance and delivery of the Certificates under the circumstances contemplated by the Participation Agreement do not, under existing law, require registration of the Notes or the certificates being issued on the date hereof under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as amended, or the qualification of the Loan Agreement under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. (q) The Operative Agreements (other than the Trust Agreement) to which First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., individually or as Owner Trustee, as the case may be, is a party constitute valid and binding obligations of First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., individually or as Owner Trustee, as the case may be, enforceable against First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., individually or as Owner Trustee, in accordance with the terms thereof, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, and similar laws affecting creditors, rights generally, and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (r) The execution and delivery by First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., individually or as Owner Trustee, as the case may be, of the Operative Agreements (other than the Trust Agreement) to which it is a party and compliance by First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., individually or as Owner Trustee, with all of the provisions thereof do not and will not contravene any law, rule or regulation of the States of ____________ or ___________. (s) The amounts to be paid by the Lessee and the Borrower under the Operative Agreements do not violate the usury laws of the State of California. (t) The choice of law and choice of forum provisions in each of the Operative Agreements will be enforced by the courts of the State of California. (u) No intangibles tax, mortgage recording tax, documentary transfer tax or similar taxes or charges, other than nominal recordation or filing fees, are required to be paid as a condition of the legality or enforceability of the Operative Agreements. This opinion is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters stated herein. This opinion is based on and is limited to the laws of the States of ____________ and ____________ [STATES OF PROPERTY LOCATIONS] the federal laws of the United States of America and, as applicable, the General Corporation Law of the States of Delaware and California. Insofar as the foregoing opinion relates to matters of law other than the foregoing, no opinion is hereby given.

By: --------------------- Name: ------------------- Title: ------------------ EXHIBIT A BOARD RESOLUTIONS EXHIBIT B ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION EXHIBIT C BYLAWS EXHIBIT H [Owner Trustee's Outside Counsel Opinion] (Pursuant to Section 6.2(f) of the Participation Agreement) __________ __, 1995 TO THOSE ON THE ATTACHED DISTRIBUTION LIST RE: TRUST AGREEMENT DATED AS OF __________ ___, 1995 Dear Sirs: We have acted as special counsel for First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., a national banking association, in its individual capacity ("FSB") and in its capacity as trustee (the "Owner Trustee") under the Trust Agreement dated as of ___________ ___, 1995 (the "Trust Agreement") by and among it, NationsBank of Texas, N.A. (the "Beneficiary"), in connection with the execution and delivery by the Owner Trustee of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party. Except as otherwise defined herein, the terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in Appendix A to the Participation Agreement dated as of __________ ___, 1995 (the "Participation Agreement") by and among Foundation Health Medical Services, Foundation Health Corporation, __________________ and _____________________, as Holders, First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., in its individual capacity as expressly set forth therein and otherwise as Owner Trustee and NationsBank of Texas, N.A., as Administrative Agent. We have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of rendering this opinion. Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: 1. FSB is a national banking association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of United States of America and each of FSB and the Owner Trustee has under the laws of the State of Utah and federal banking law the power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Trust Agreement and each other Operative Agreement to which it is a party. 2. The Owner Trustee is the duly-appointed trustee under the Trust Agreement. 3. The Trust Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by one of the officers of FSB and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the beneficiary, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Owner Trustee (and to the extent set forth therein, against FSB), enforceable against the Owner Trustee (and to the extent set forth therein, against FSB) in accordance with its terms, and the Trust Agreement creates under the laws of the State of Utah for the Beneficiary the beneficial interest in the Trust Estate it purports to create and is a valid trust under the laws of the State of Utah. 4. The Operative Agreements to which it is party have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by FSB, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties thereto, are legal, valid and binding obligations of FSB, enforceable against FSB in accordance with their respective terms. 5. The Operative Agreements to which it is party have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Owner Trustee, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties thereto, are legal, valid and binding obligations of the Owner Trustee, enforceable against the Owner Trustee in accordance with their respective terms. The Notes and the Certificates have been duly issued, executed and delivered by the Owner Trustee, pursuant to authorization contained in the Trust Agreement, and the Certificates are entitled to the benefits and security afforded by the Trust Agreement in accordance with its terms and the terms of the Trust Agreement. 6. The execution and delivery by each of FSB and the Owner Trustee of the Trust Agreement and the Operative Agreements to which it is a party, and compliance by FSB or Owner Trustee, as the case may be, with all of the provisions thereof do not and will not contravene any Laws applicable to or binding on FSB, or as Owner Trustee, or contravene the provisions of, or constitute a default under, its charter documents or by-laws or, to our knowledge after due inquiry, any indenture, mortgage contract or other agreement or instrument to which FSB or Owner Trustee is a party or by which it or any of its property may be bound or affected. 7. The execution and delivery of the Operative Agreements by each of FSB and the Owner Trustee and the performance by each of FSB and the Owner Trustee of their respective obligations thereunder does not require on or prior to the date hereof the consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration or filing with, or the taking of any action in respect of any Governmental Authority or any court. 8. Assuming that the trust created by the Trust Agreement is treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposed within the contemplation of Section 671 through 678 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, there are no fees, taxes, or other charges (except taxes imposed on fees payable to the Owner Trustee) payable to the State of Utah or any political subdivision thereof in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by the Owner Trustee, the Agent, the Lenders, the Lessee or the Holder, as the case may be, of the Operative Agreements or in connection with the acquisition of any Property by the Owner Trustee or in connection with the making by the Holder of its investment in the Trust or its acquisition of the beneficial interest in the Trust Estate or in connection with the issuance and acquisition of the Certificate, or the Notes, and neither the Owner Trustee, the Trust Estate nor the trust created by the Trust Agreement will be subject to any fee, tax or other governmental charge (except taxes on fees payable to the Owner Trustee) under the laws of the State of Utah or any political subdivision thereof on, based on or measured by, directly or indirectly, the gross receipts, net income or value of the Trust Estate by reason of the creation or continued existence of the trust under the terms of the Trust Agreement pursuant to the laws of the State of Utah or the Owner Trustee's performance of its duties under the Trust Agreement. 9. There is no fee, tax or other governmental charge under the laws of the State of Utah or any political subdivision thereof in existence on the date hereof on, based on or measured by any payments under the Certificates, Notes or the beneficial interests in the Trust Estate, by reason of the creation of the trust under the Trust Agreement pursuant to the laws of the State of Utah or the Owner Trustee's performance of its duties under the Trust Agreement within the State of Utah. 10. Upon the filing of the financing statement on form UCC-1 in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A with the _____________, the Administrative Agent's security interest in the Trust Estate, for the benefit of the Lenders, will be perfected, to the extent that such perfection is governed by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Utah (the "Utah UCC"). Your attention is directed to the Utah UCC, which provides, in part, that a filed financing statement which does not state a maturity date or which states a maturity date of more than five years is effective only for a period of five years from the date of filing, unless within six months prior to the expiration of said period a continuation statement is filed in the same office or offices in which the original statement was filed. The continuation statement must be signed by the secured party, identify the original statement by file number and state that the original statement is still effective. Upon the timely filing of a continuation statement, the effectiveness of the original financing statement is continued for five years after the last date to which the original statement was effective. Succeeding continuation statements may be filed in the same manner to continue the effectiveness of the original statement. The opinions set forth in paragraphs 3 and 4 above are subject to the qualification that enforceability of the Trust Agreement and the other Operative Agreements to which the Owner Trustee is a party, in accordance with their respective terms, may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally. We are attorneys admitted to practice in the State of Utah and in rendering the foregoing opinions we have not passed upon, or purported to pass upon, the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Utah and the federal banking law governing the banking and trust powers of FSB.

WHEREAS, Lessor desires to lease to Lessee, and Lessee desires to lease from Lessor, each Property; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: ARTICLE I 1.1 DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Lease have the respective meanings specified in APPENDIX A to the Participation Agreement of even date herewith (as such may be amended, modified, supplemented, restated and/or replaced from time to time, the "PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT") among the Lessee, the Guarantor, First Security Bank of Utah, N.A., not individually, except as expressly stated therein, as Owner Trustee under the FH Trust 1995-1, the Holders, the Lenders and the Agent. ARTICLE II 2.1 PROPERTY. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and contained in the respective Lease Supplement relating to each Property, Lessor hereby leases to Lessee and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, each Property. 2.2 LEASE TERM. The term of this Lease with respect to each Property (the "BASIC TERM") shall begin upon the earlier to occur of (i) the Completion Date for such Property or (ii) if such Property is a Construction Period Property as of the date of any Agency Agreement Event of Default, the date of such Agency Agreement Event of Default (in each case the "BASIC TERM COMMENCEMENT DATE") and shall end on May 25, 2000 (the "BASIC TERM EXPIRATION DATE"), unless the Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. 2.3 TITLE. Each Property is leased to Lessee without any representation or warranty, express or implied, by Lessor and subject to the rights of parties in possession, the existing state of title (including, without limitation, the Permitted Exceptions) and all applicable Legal Requirements. Lessee shall in no event have any recourse against Lessor for any defect in title to any Property other than in connection with Lessor Liens. 2.4 LEASE SUPPLEMENTS. On or prior to each Basic Term Commencement Date, Lessee and Lessor shall each execute and deliver a Lease Supplement for the Property to be leased effective as of such Basic Term Commencement Date in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A hereto. Lessee hereby irrevocably appoints Lessor as Lessee's attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, in the name of Lessor or the name of Lessee or otherwise, to execute any Lease Supplement which Lessee fails or refuses to sign in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.4 (including specifically without limitation any Lease Supplement required in connection with any Construction Period Property upon the occurrence of an Agency Agreement Event of Default). ARTICLE III 3.1 RENT. (a) Lessee shall pay Basic Rent on each Payment Date, and on any date on which this Lease shall terminate with respect to any or all Properties during the Term; provided, however, with respect to each individual Property Lessee shall have no obligation to pay Basic Rent with respect to such Property until the Basic Term has commenced with respect to such Property. (b) Basic Rent shall be due and payable in lawful money of the United States and shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the due date therefor to such account or accounts at such bank or banks as Lessor shall from time to time direct. (c) Neither Lessee's inability or failure to take possession of all or any portion of any Property when delivered by Lessor, nor Lessor's inability or failure to deliver all or any portion of any Property to Lessee on or before the applicable Basic Term Commencement Date, whether or not attributable to any act or omission of Lessee or any act or omission of Lessor (other than an act or omission that constitutes gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Lessor), or for any other reason whatsoever, shall delay or otherwise affect Lessee's obligation to pay Rent for such Property in accordance with the terms of this Lease. 3.2 PAYMENT OF BASIC RENT. Basic Rent shall be paid absolutely net to Lessor or its designee, so that this Lease shall yield to Lessor the full amount thereof, without setoff, deduction or reduction. 3.3 SUPPLEMENTAL RENT. Lessee shall pay to Lessor or its designee or to the Person entitled thereto any and all Supplemental Rent promptly as the same shall become due and payable, and if Lessee fails to pay any Supplemental Rent, Lessor shall have all rights, powers and remedies provided for herein or by law or equity or otherwise in the case of nonpayment of Basic Rent. Lessee shall pay to Lessor, as Supplemental Rent, among other things, on demand, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, (a) any and all unpaid fees, charges, payments and other obligations (other than the obligations of Lessor to pay the principal amount of the Loans and the Holder Amount) due and owing by Lessor under the Credit Agreement, under the Trust Agreement and/or under any other Operative Agreement (including specifically without limitation any amounts owing to the Lenders under Section 2.10 or Section 2.11 of the Credit Agreement and any amounts owing to the Holders under Section 3.8 or Section 3.9 of the Trust Agreement) and (b) interest at the applicable Overdue Rate on any installment of Basic Rent not paid when due for the period for which the same shall be overdue and on any payment of Supplemental Rent not paid when due or demanded by Lessor for the period from the due date or the date of any such demand, as the case may be, until the same shall be paid. The expiration or other termination of Lessee's obligations to pay Basic Rent hereunder shall not limit or modify the obligations of Lessee with respect to Supplemental Rent. Unless expressly provided otherwise in this Lease, in the event of any failure on the part of Lessee to pay and discharge any Supplemental Rent as and when due, Lessee shall also promptly pay and discharge any fine, penalty, interest or cost which may be assessed or added for nonpayment or late payment of such Supplemental Rent, all of which shall also constitute Supplemental Rent. 3.4 PERFORMANCE ON A NON-BUSINESS DAY. If any payment is required hereunder on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day or, with respect to Basic Rent, the Scheduled Interest Payment Date to which such Basic Rent relates. 3.5 RENT PAYMENT PROVISIONS. Lessee shall make payment of all Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent when due regardless of whether any of the Operative Agreements pursuant to which same is calculated and is owing shall have been rejected, avoided or disavowed in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving any of the parties to any of the Operative Agreements. Such provisions of such Operative Agreements and their related definitions are incorporated herein by reference and shall survive any termination, amendment or rejection of any such Operative Agreements. ARTICLE IV 4.1 UTILITY CHARGES. Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water, telephone, sanitary sewer service and all other rents and utilities used in or on a Property and related real property during the Term. Lessee shall be entitled to receive any credit or refund with respect to any utility charge paid by Lessee. The amount of any credit or refund received by Lessor on account of any utility charges paid by Lessee, net of the costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in obtaining such credit or refund, shall be promptly paid over to Lessee. All charges for utilities imposed with respect to a Property for a billing period during which this Lease expires or terminates shall be adjusted and prorated on a daily basis between Lessor and Lessee, and each party shall pay or reimburse the other for such party's pro rata share thereof. ARTICLE V 5.1 QUIET ENJOYMENT. Subject to the rights of Lessor contained in Sections 17.2, 17.3 and 20.3 and the other terms of this Lease and so long as no Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessee shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy each Property for the applicable Term, free of any claim or other action by Lessor or anyone rightfully claiming by, through or under Lessor (other than Lessee) with respect to any matters arising from and after the applicable Basic Term Commencement Date. ARTICLE VI 6.1 NET LEASE. This Lease shall constitute a net lease. Any present or future law to the contrary notwithstanding, this Lease shall not terminate, nor shall Lessee be entitled to any abatement, suspension, deferment, reduction, setoff, counterclaim, or defense with respect to the Rent, nor shall the obligations of Lessee hereunder be affected (except as expressly herein permitted and by performance of the obligations in connection therewith) by reason of: (i) any damage to or destruction of any Property or any part thereof; (ii) any taking of any Property or any part thereof or interest therein by Condemnation or otherwise; (iii) any prohibition, limitation, restriction or prevention of Lessee's use, occupancy or enjoyment of any Property or any part thereof, or any interference with such use, occupancy or enjoyment by any Person or for any other reason; (iv) any title defect, Lien or any matter affecting title to any Property; (v) any eviction by paramount title or otherwise; (vi) any default by Lessor hereunder; (vii) any action for bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or other proceeding relating to or affecting Lessor or any Governmental Authority; (viii) the impossibility or illegality of performance by Lessor, Lessee or both; (ix) any action of any Governmental Authority; (x) Lessee's acquisition of ownership of all or part of any Property; (xi) breach of any warranty or representation with respect to any Property or any Operative Agreement; (xii) any defect in the condition, quality or fitness for use of any Property or any part thereof; or (xiii) any other cause or circumstance whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing and whether or not Lessee shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing. The parties intend that the obligations of Lessee hereunder shall be covenants, agreements and obligations that are separate and independent from any obligations of Lessor hereunder and shall continue unaffected unless such covenants, agreements and obligations shall have been modified or terminated in accordance with an express provision of this Lease. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Section 6.1 have been specifically reviewed and subject to negotiation. 6.2 NO TERMINATION OR ABATEMENT. Lessee shall remain obligated under this Lease in accordance with its terms and shall not take any action to terminate, rescind or avoid this Lease, notwithstanding any action for bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, or other proceeding affecting Lessor or any Governmental Authority, or any action with respect to this Lease or any Operative Agreement which may be taken by any trustee, receiver or liquidator of Lessor or any Governmental Authority or by any court with respect to Lessor or any Governmental Authority. Lessee hereby waives all right (i) to terminate or surrender this Lease or (ii) to avail itself of any abatement, suspension, deferment, reduction, setoff, counterclaim or defense with respect to any Rent. Lessee shall remain obligated under this Lease in accordance with its terms and Lessee hereby waives any and all rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise to modify or to avoid strict compliance with its obligations under this Lease. Notwithstanding any such statute or otherwise, Lessee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions contained in this Lease. ARTICLE VII 7.1 OWNERSHIP OF THE PROPERTY. (a) Lessor and Lessee intend that (i) for financial accounting purposes with respect to Lessee (A) this Lease will be treated as an "operating lease" pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, as amended, (B) Lessor will be treated as the owner and lessor of each Property and (C) Lessee will be treated as the lessee of each Property, but (ii) for federal and all state and local income tax purposes, for bankruptcy purposes and for all other purposes (A) this Lease will be treated as a financing arrangement and (B) Lessee will be treated as the owner of the Properties and will be entitled to all tax benefits ordinarily available to owners of property similar to the Properties for such tax purposes. (b) To the extent this Lease is hereafter deemed to constitute a finance lease and not a true lease, then and only in such event, Lessor and Lessee intend and agree that, for the purpose of securing Lessee's obligations hereunder, (i) this Lease shall be deemed to be a security agreement and financing statement within the meaning of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code respecting each of the Properties to the extent such is personal property and an irrevocable grant and conveyance of a lien and mortgage on each of the Properties to the extent such is real property; (ii) the conveyance provided for in Article II shall be deemed to be a grant by Lessee to Lessor of a lien on and security interest in all of Lessee's right, title and interest in and to the Property and all proceeds (including without limitation insurance proceeds) of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, investments, securities or other property, whether in the form of cash, investments, securities or other property, and an assignment of all rents, profits and income produced by the Property; and (iii) notifications to Persons holding such property, and acknowledgements, receipts or confirmations from financial intermediaries, bankers or agents (as applicable) of Lessee shall be deemed to have been given for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Lessor and Lessee shall, to the extent consistent with this Lease, take such actions as may be necessary (including without limitation the filing of Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statements, Uniform Commercial Code Fixture Filings and the Mortgage Instruments) to ensure that, if this Lease were deemed to create a lien and security interest in the Property in accordance with this Section, such lien and security interest would be deemed to be a perfected lien and security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the Term.

During the Term of each Property, Lessee shall procure and carry, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, commercial general liability insurance for claims for injuries or death sustained by persons or damage to property while on the Properties or the premises where the Equipment is located and such other public liability coverages as are then customarily carried by similarly situated companies conducting business similar to that conducted by Lessee.

The policies shall be endorsed to name Lessor, the Holders, the Agent and the Lenders as additional insureds. The policies shall also specifically provide that such policies shall be considered primary insurance which shall apply to any loss or claim before any contribution by any insurance which Lessor, the Holders, the Agent or the Lenders may have in force. Lessee shall, in the operation of the Properties, comply with the applicable workers' compensation laws and protect Lessor, the Holders, the Agent and the Lenders against any liability under such laws. 14.2 HAZARD AND OTHER INSURANCE. (a) During the Term for each Property, Lessee shall keep, or cause to be kept, such Property insured against loss or damage by fire and other risks and shall maintain builders' risk insurance during construction of any Improvements or Modifications on terms and in amounts that (a) are no less favorable than insurance covering other similar properties owned by Lessee and (b) are then carried by similarly situated companies conducting business similar to that conducted by Lessee. The policies shall be endorsed to name Lessor, the Holders, the Agent and the Lenders, to the extent of their respective interests, as additional loss payees; PROVIDED, so long as no Lease Event of Default exists, any loss payable under the insurance policies required by this Section will be paid to Lessee. (b) During the Term with respect to a Property the area in which such Property is located is designated a "flood-prone" area pursuant to the Flood Disaster Protection Act or 1973, or any amendments or supplements thereto, then Lessee shall comply with the National Flood Insurance Program as set forth in the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. In addition, Lessee will fully comply with the requirements of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as each may be amended from time to time, and with any other Legal Requirement, concerning flood insurance to the extent that it may apply to any such Property. 14.3 COVERAGE. (a) As of the date of this Lease and annually thereafter, Lessee shall furnish Lessor and the Agent with certificates showing the insurance required under Sections 14.1 and 14.2 to be in effect, naming Lessor, the Holders, the Agent and the Lenders as additional insureds and loss payees and evidencing the other requirements of this Article XIV. All such insurance shall be at the cost and expense of Lessee. Such certificates shall include a provision for thirty (30) days' advance written notice by the insurer to Lessor and the Agent in the event of cancellation or material alteration of such insurance. If a Lease Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Lessor so requests, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor copies of all insurance policies required by Sections 14.1 and 14.2. (b) Lessee agrees that the insurance policy or policies required by Sections 14.1, 14.2(a) and 14.2(b) shall include an appropriate clause pursuant to which any such policy shall provide that it will not be invalidated should Lessee waive, at any time, any or all rights of recovery against any party for losses covered by such policy. Lessee hereby waives any and all such rights against the Lessor, the Holders, the Agent and the Lenders to the extent of payments made to any such Person under any such policy. (c) Neither Lessor nor Lessee shall carry separate insurance concurrent in kind or form or contributing in the event of loss with any insurance required under this Article XIV, except that Lessor may carry separate liability insurance at Lessor's sole cost so long as (i) Lessee's insurance is designated as primary and in no event excess or contributory to any insurance Lessor may have in force which would apply to a loss covered under Lessee's policy and (ii) each such insurance policy will not cause Lessee's insurance required under this Article XIV to be subject to a coinsurance exception of any kind. (d) Lessee shall pay as they become due all premiums for the insurance required by Section 14.1 and Section 14.2, shall renew or replace each policy prior to the expiration date thereof or otherwise maintain the coverage required by such Sections without any lapse in coverage. (e) The insurance required to be maintained by Lessee under Sections 14.1 and 14.2 shall be maintained with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations having a rating of A or better from Best's. Lessee shall be deemed to be in compliance with requirements of this Section 14.3(e) if Lessee insures through a captive Insurance Subsidiary; provided, that each re-insurer to which coverage is ceded by such captive Insurance Subsidiary has the ratings specified in this Section 14.3(e) and the level of self-insurance retained by Lessee is substantially similar to the level Lessee would have maintained under Sections 14.1 and 14.2. Lessee may self-insure for workers' compensation liabilities if such self- insurance is approved by Lessee's board of directors and is conducted in accordance with applicable Law. ARTICLE XV 15.1 CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION. (a) Subject to the provisions of this Article XV and Article XVI (in the event Lessee delivers, or is obligated to deliver, a Termination Notice), and prior to the occurrence and continuation of a Lease Default or Lease Event of Default, Lessee shall be entitled to receive (and Lessor hereby irrevocably assigns to Lessee all of Lessor's right, title and interest in) any award, compensation or insurance proceeds under Sections 14.2(a) or (b) hereof to which Lessee or Lessor may become entitled by reason of their respective interests in a Property (i) if all or a portion of such Property is damaged or destroyed in whole or in part by a Casualty or (ii) if the use, access, occupancy, easement rights or title to such Property or any part thereof is the subject of a Condemnation; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if a Lease Default or Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing such award, compensation or insurance proceeds shall be paid directly to Lessor or, if received by Lessee, shall be held in trust for Lessor, and shall be paid over by Lessee to Lessor and held in accordance with the terms of this paragraph (a). All amounts held by Lessor hereunder on account of any award, compensation or insurance proceeds either paid directly to Lessor or turned over to Lessor shall be held as security for the performance of Lessee's obligations hereunder. (b) Lessee may appear in any proceeding or action to negotiate, prosecute, adjust or appeal any claim for any award, compensation or insurance payment on account of any such Casualty or Condemnation and shall pay all expenses thereof. At Lessee's reasonable request, and at Lessee's sole cost and expense, Lessor and the Agent shall participate in any such proceeding, action, negotiation, prosecution or adjustment. Lessor and Lessee agree that this Lease shall control the rights of Lessor and Lessee in and to any such award, compensation or insurance payment. (c) If Lessee shall receive notice of a Casualty or a possible Condemnation of a Property or any interest therein where damage to the affected Property is estimated to equal or exceed ten percent (10%) of the Property Cost of such Property, Lessee shall give notice thereof to the Lessor and to the Agent promptly after the receipt of such notice. (d) In the event of a Casualty or a Condemnation (regardless of whether notice thereof must be given pursuant to paragraph (c)), this Lease shall terminate with respect to the applicable Property in accordance with Section 16.1 if Lessee, within thirty (30) days after such occurrence, delivers to Lessor and the Agent a notice to such effect. (e) If pursuant to this Section 15.1 this Lease shall continue in full force and effect following a Casualty or Condemnation with respect to the affected Property, Lessee shall, at its sole cost and expense and using, if available, the proceeds of any award, compensation or insurance with respect to such Casualty or Condemnation (including, without limitation, any such award, compensation or insurance which has been received by the Agent and which should be turned over to Lessee pursuant to the terms of the Operative Agreements), promptly and diligently repair any damage to the applicable Property caused by such Casualty or Condemnation in conformity with the requirements of Sections 10.1 and 11.1, using the as-built plans and specifications or manufacturer's specifications for the applicable Improvements or Equipment (as modified to give effect to any subsequent Modifications, any Condemnation affecting the Property and all applicable Legal Requirements), so as to restore as nearly as practicable the applicable Property to the same condition, operation, function and value as existed immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation. In such event, title to the applicable Property shall remain with Lessor. (f) In no event shall a Casualty or Condemnation with respect to which this Lease remains in full force and effect under this Section 15.1 affect Lessee's obligations to pay Rent pursuant to Section 3.1. (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 15.1(a) or Section 15.1(e), if during the Term with respect to a Property a Casualty occurs with respect to such Property or Lessee receives notice of a Condemnation with respect to such Property, and following such Casualty or Condemnation, the applicable Property cannot reasonably be restored, repaired or replaced on or before the 180th day prior to the Expiration Date (if such Casualty or Condemnation occurs during the Term) to the same condition as existed immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation or on or before such day such Property is not in fact so re-stored, repaired or replaced, then Lessee shall be required to purchase such Property on the next Payment Date and pay Lessor the Termination Value for such Property and any and all Rent then due and owing and all other amounts then due and owing (including without limitation amounts described in clause FIRST of Section 22.2). 15.2 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. Promptly upon Lessee's actual knowledge of the presence of Hazardous Substances in any portion of any Property or Properties in concentrations and conditions that constitute an Environmental Violation and which, in the reasonable opinion of Lessee, the cost to undertake any legally required response, clean up, remedial or other action will result in a cost to Lessee of more than $100,000, Lessee shall notify Lessor in writing of such condition. In the event of any Environmental Violation (regardless of whether notice thereof must be given), Lessee shall, not later than thirty (30) days after Lessee has actual knowledge of such Environmental Violation, either deliver to Lessor a Termination Notice with respect to the applicable Property or Properties pursuant to Section 16.1, if applicable, or, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, promptly and diligently undertake any response, clean up, remedial or other action necessary to remove, cleanup or remediate the Environmental Violation in accordance with all Environmental Laws. If Lessee does not deliver a Termination Notice with respect to such Property pursuant to Section 16.1, Lessee shall, upon completion of remedial action by Lessee, cause to be prepared by a reputable environmental consultant acceptable to Lessor a report describing the Environmental Violation and the actions taken by Lessee (or its agents) in response to such Environmental Violation, and a statement by the consultant that the Environmental Violation has been remedied to the extent required by applicable Environmental Law. 15.3 NOTICE OF ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. Promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days from the date Lessee has actual knowledge thereof, Lessee shall provide to Lessor written notice of any material pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding involving any Environmental Law or any Release on or in connection with any Property or Properties. All such notices shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of the claim, action or proceeding and Lessee's proposed response thereto. In addition, Lessee shall provide to Lessor, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt, copies of all material written communications with any Governmental Authority relating to any Environmental Law in connection with any Property. Lessee shall also promptly provide such detailed reports of any such material environmental claims as may reasonably be requested by Lessor. ARTICLE XVI 16.1 TERMINATION UPON CERTAIN EVENTS. If any of the following occur: (i) Lessee has delivered a written notice to the Lessor (in the form described in Section 16.2(a) (a "TERMINATION NOTICE") pursuant to Section 15.1(d) that following the applicable Casualty or Condemnation this Lease shall terminate with respect to the affected Property, or (ii) Lessee has delivered a Termination Notice pursuant to the second sentence of Section 15.2 that, due to the occurrence of an Environmental Violation, this Lease shall terminate with respect to the affected Property, then this Lease shall terminate with respect to the applicable Property. 16.2 PROCEDURES. (a) A Termination Notice shall contain: (i) notice of termination of this Lease with respect to the affected Property on a Payment Date not more than sixty (60) days after Lessor's receipt of such Termination Notice but not later than the Expiration Date, (the "TERMINATION DATE"); and (ii) a binding and irrevocable agreement of Lessee to pay the Termination Value for the applicable Property, any and all Rent then due and owing and all other amounts then due and owing (including without limitation amounts described in clause FIRST of Section 22.2) and purchase such Property on such Termination Date. (b) On each Termination Date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the Termination Value for the applicable Property, any and all Rent then due and owing and all other amounts then due and owing (including without limitation amounts described in clause FIRST of Section 22.2) theretofore accruing, and Lessor shall convey such Property or the remaining portion thereof, if any, to Lessee (or Lessee's designee), all in accordance with Section 19.1. ARTICLE XVII 17.1 LEASE EVENTS OF DEFAULT. If any one or more of the following events (each a "LEASE EVENT OF DEFAULT") shall occur: (a) Lessee shall fail to make payment of (i) any Basic Rent (except as set forth in clause (ii)) within five (5) days after the same has become due and payable or (ii) any Termination Value, on the date any such payment is due, or any payment of Basic Rent or Supplemental Rent due on the due date of any such payment of Termination Value, or any amount due on the Expiration Date; (b) Lessee shall fail to make payment of any Supplemental Rent (other than Supplemental Rent referred to in Section 17(a)(ii)) due and payable within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice thereof (which notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 or any similar or successor law); (c) Lessee shall fail to maintain insurance as required by Article XIV of this Lease; (d) Lessee shall fail to observe or perform any term, covenant or condition of Lessee under this Lease or any other Operative Agreement to which Lessee is a party other than those set forth in Sections 17.1(a), (b) or (c) hereof, or any representation or warranty made by Lessee set forth in this Lease or in any other Operative Agreement or in any document entered into in connection herewith or therewith or in any document, certificate or financial or other statement delivered in connection herewith or therewith shall be false or inaccurate in any material way; provided, however, to the extent such failure or misrepresentation or breach of warranty is capable of being cured an Event of Default shall not occur under this Section 17.1(d) unless and until such failure or breach shall remain uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Lessor thereof (which notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 or any similar or successor law); (e) an Agency Agreement Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (f) a Guaranty Agreement Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (g) Lessee shall (i) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, (ii) file a petition under the United States bankruptcy laws or any other applicable insolvency law or statute of the United States of America or any State or Commonwealth thereof, (iii) make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (iv) consent to the appointment of a receiver of itself or the whole or any substantial part of its property, (v) fail to cause the discharge of any custodian, trustee or receiver appointed for Lessee or the whole or a substantial part of its property within ninety (90) days after such appointment, or (vi) file a petition or answer seeking or consenting to reorganization under the United States bankruptcy laws or any other applicable insolvency law or statute of the United States of America or any State or Commonwealth thereof; or (h) insolvency proceedings or a petition under the United States bankruptcy laws or any other applicable insolvency law or statute of the United States of America or any State or Commonwealth thereof shall be filed against Lessee and not dismissed within ninety (90) days from the date of its filing, or a court of competent jurisdiction shall enter an order or decree appointing, with the consent of Lessee, a receiver of Lessee or the whole or a substantial part of its property, and such order or decree shall not be vacated or set aside within ninety (90) days from the date of the entry thereof; then, in any such event, (i) all Construction Period Properties shall become Properties subject to the terms of this Lease as more specifically provided in Section 2.2 and thereafter all references hereunder to "Property" or "Properties" and all obligations of the Lessee with respect to the Properties (including specifically without limitation the obligations of the Lessee contained in this Article XVII) shall be deemed to include such Construction Period Properties, and (ii) Lessor may, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for in this Article XVII and in Section 18.1, terminate this Lease by giving Lessee five (5) days notice of such termination, and this Lease shall terminate, and all rights of Lessee under this Lease shall cease. Lessee shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, pay as Supplemental Rent all costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Lessor, including without limitation fees and expenses of counsel, as a result of any Lease Event of Default hereunder. 17.2 SURRENDER OF POSSESSION. If a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not this Lease shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 17.1, Lessee shall, upon thirty (30) days written notice, surrender to Lessor possession of the Properties. Lessor may enter upon and repossess the Properties by such means as are available at law or in equity, and may remove Lessee and all other Persons and any and all personal property and Lessee's equipment and personalty and severable Modifications from the Properties. Lessor shall have no liability by reason of any such entry, repossession or removal performed in accordance with applicable law. Upon the written demand of Lessor, Lessee shall return the Properties promptly to Lessor, in the manner and condition required by, and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of, Section 22.1(c) hereof. 17.3 RELETTING. If a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not this Lease shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 17.1, Lessor may, but shall be under no obligation to, relet any or all of the Properties, for the account of Lessee or otherwise, for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term) and on such conditions (which may include concessions or free rent) and for such purposes as Lessor may determine, and Lessor may collect, receive and retain the rents resulting from such reletting. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any failure to relet any Property or for any failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting. 17.4 DAMAGES. Neither (a) the termination of this Lease as to all or any of the Properties pursuant to Section 17.1; (b) the repossession of all or any of the Properties; nor (c) the failure of Lessor to relet all or any of the Properties, the reletting of all or any portion thereof, nor the failure of Lessor to collect or receive any rentals due upon any such reletting, shall relieve Lessee of its liabilities and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination, repossession or reletting. If any Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and notwithstanding any termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 17.1, Lessee shall forthwith pay to Lessor all Rent and other sums due and payable hereunder to and including the date of such termination (it being intended that Lessor have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4). Thereafter, on the days on which the Basic Rent or Supplemental Rent, as applicable, are payable under this Lease or would have been payable under this Lease if the same had not been terminated pursuant to Section 17.1 and until the end of the Term hereof or what would have been the Term in the absence of such termination, Lessee shall pay Lessor, as current liquidated damages (it being agreed that it would be impossible accurately to determine actual damages) an amount equal to the Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent that are payable under this Lease or would have been payable by Lessee hereunder if this Lease had not been terminated pursuant to Section 17.1, less the net proceeds, if any, which are actually received by Lessor with respect to the period in question of any reletting of any Property or any portion thereof; PROVIDED that Lessee's obligation to make payments of Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent under this Section 17.4 shall continue only so long as Lessor shall not have received the amounts specified in Section 17.6. In calculating the amount of such net proceeds from reletting, there shall be deducted all of Lessor's, any Holder's, the Agent's and any Lenders' reasonable expenses in connection therewith, including repossession costs, brokerage or sales commissions, fees and expenses for counsel and any necessary repair or alteration costs and expenses incurred in preparation for such reletting. To the extent Lessor receives any damages pursuant to this Section 17.4, such amounts shall be regarded as amounts paid on account of Rent. 17.5 [intentionally omitted] 17.6 FINAL LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. If a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, whether or not this Lease shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 17.1 and whether or not Lessor shall have collected any current liquidated damages pursuant to Section 17.4, Lessor shall have the right to recover, by demand to Lessee and at Lessor's election, and Lessee shall pay to Lessor, as and for final liquidated damages, but exclusive of the indemnities payable under Section 13 of the Participation Agreement, and in lieu of all current liquidated damages beyond the date of such demand (it being agreed that it would be impossible accurately to determine actual damages) the sum of (a) the Termination Value for all Properties remaining under this Lease, PLUS (b) all other amounts owing in respect of Rent and Supplemental Rent heretofore accruing under this Lease. Upon payment of the amount specified pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 17.6, Lessee shall be entitled to receive from Lessor, either at Lessee's request or upon Lessor's election, in either case at Lessee's cost, a grant and assignment of Lessor's entire right, title and interest in and to the Properties, the Improvements, Fixtures, Modifications and Equipment, in each case in recordable form and otherwise in conformity with local custom and free and clear of the Lien of this Lease and any Lessor Liens. The Properties shall be conveyed to Lessee (or Lessee's designee) "AS IS" and in their then present physical condition. If any statute or rule of law shall limit the amount of such final liquidated damages to less than the amount agreed upon, Lessor shall be entitled to the maximum amount allowable under such statute or rule of law; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Lessee shall not be entitled to receive Lessor's interest in the Properties, the Improvements, Fixtures, Modifications or Equipment or documents unless Lessee shall have paid in full the Termination Value and all other amounts due and owing hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements. 17.7 [Intentionally Omitted]. 17.8 WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS. If this Lease shall be terminated pursuant to Section 17.1, Lessee waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) any notice of re-entry or the institution of legal proceedings to obtain re-entry or possession; (b) any right of redemption, re-entry or possession; (c) the benefit of any laws now or hereafter in force exempting property from liability for rent or for debt; and (d) any other rights which might otherwise limit or modify any of Lessor's rights or remedies under this Article XVII. 17.9 ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS UNDER CONTRACTS. If a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not this Lease shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 17.1, Lessee shall upon Lessor's demand immediately assign, transfer and set over to Lessor all of Lessee's right, title and interest in and to each agreement executed by Lessee in connection with the purchase, construction, development, use or operation of the Properties (including, without limitation, all right, title and interest of Lessee with respect to all warranty, performance, service and indemnity provisions), as and to the extent that the same relate to the purchase, construction, use and operation of the Properties. 17.10 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. The remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and in addition to (and not in limitation of) any other remedies available at law, equity or otherwise, including, without limitation, any mortgage foreclosure remedies. ARTICLE XVIII 18.1 LESSOR'S RIGHT TO CURE LESSEE'S LEASE DEFAULTS. Lessor, without waiving or releasing any obligation or Lease Event of Default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) remedy any Lease Event of Default for the account and at the sole cost and expense of Lessee, including the failure by Lessee to maintain the insurance required by Article XIV, and may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and notwithstanding any right of quiet enjoyment in favor of Lessee, enter upon any Property, or real property owned or leased by Lessee and take all such action thereon as may be necessary or appropriate therefor. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of any lessee. All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses so incurred (including without limitation fees and expenses of counsel), together with interest thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date on which such sums or expenses are paid by Lessor, shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor on demand. ARTICLE XIX 19.1 PROVISIONS RELATING TO LESSEE'S EXERCISE OF ITS PURCHASE OPTION. Subject to Section 19.2, in connection with any termination of this Lease with respect to any Property pursuant to the terms of Section 16.2, or in connection with Lessee's exercise of its Purchase Option, upon the date on which this Lease is to terminate with respect to a Property or all of the Properties, and upon tender by Lessee of the amounts set forth in Sections 16.2(b) or 20.2, as applicable, Lessor shall execute and deliver to Lessee (or to Lessee's designee) at Lessee's cost and expense a grant and assignment of Lessor's entire interest in the applicable Property (which shall include an assignment of all of Lessor's right, title and interest in and to any Net Proceeds not previously received by Lessor), in each case in recordable form and otherwise in conformity with local custom and free and clear of the Lien of the Lease and any Lessor Liens attributable to Lessor but without any other warranties (of title or otherwise) from the Lessor. The applicable Property shall be conveyed to Lessee "AS IS" "WHERE IS" and in then present physical condition. 19.2 NO TERMINATION WITH RESPECT TO LESS THAN ALL OF A PROPERTY. Lessee shall not be entitled to exercise its Purchase Option separately with respect to Property consisting of Land, Equipment and Improvements but shall be required to exercise its Purchase Option with respect to an entire Property. ARTICLE XX 20.1 INDIVIDUAL PURCHASE OPTION. Provided that the Election Notice referred to in Section 20.2 has not been delivered, Lessee shall have the option, exercisable by giving Lessor no more than sixty (60) days and no less than thirty (30) days irrevocable written notice of Lessee's election to exercise such option, to either (a) purchase one or more (but not all) of the Properties on the Scheduled Interest Payment Date identified in such written notice, at a price equal to the Termination Value for such Property or Properties (which the parties do not intend to be a "bargain" purchase price), and Lessee at such time shall also pay any and all Rent then due and owing and all other amounts then due and owing with respect to the Properties to be purchased (including without limitation amounts, if any, described in clause FIRST of Section 22.2); provided, however, that the option referred to in this subclause (a) may not be exercised by the Lessee (i) if, after giving effect to such exercise, the aggregate Property Cost of all Properties then subject to the Lease would be less than $25,000,000 or there would be less than four (4) separate Properties subject to the terms of this Lease or (ii) if any Lease Default of the types specified in Sections 17.1(a), (b), (g) or (h) or any Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; or (b) purchase all of the Properties on any Scheduled Interest Payment Date occurring after the Construction Period Termination Date as identified in such written notice, at a price equal to the Termination Value for all of the Properties (which the parties do not intend to be a "bargain" purchase) and the Lessee at such time shall also pay all Rent and other amounts then due and payable under this Lease and under any other Operative Agreement (including without limitation the amounts described in clause FIRST of Section 22.2). If Lessee exercises its option to purchase a Property or Properties pursuant to this Section 20.1, Lessor shall transfer to Lessee all of Lessor's right, title and interest in and to such Property as of the Scheduled Interest Payment Date on which such purchase occurs. 20.2 ANNIVERSARY DATE PURCHASE OR SALE OPTION. Not less than 90 days and no more than 180 days prior to the third anniversary of the Initial Closing Date and any subsequent annual anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, Lessee may give Lessor and Agent irrevocable written notice (the "ELECTION NOTICE") that Lessee is electing to exercise either (a) the option to purchase all of the Properties on the next succeeding anniversary of the Initial Closing Date (the "Purchase Option") or (b) the option to remarket the Properties and cause a sale of the Properties to occur on the next succeeding anniversary of the Initial Closing Date pursuant to the terms of Section 22.1 (the "Sale Option"). If Lessee does not give an Election Notice indicating the Sale Option at least 90 days and not more than 180 days prior to the then current Expiration Date, then Lessee shall be deemed to have elected the Purchase Option for the Expiration Date. If Lessee shall either (i) elect (or be deemed to elect) to exercise the Purchase Option or (ii) elect to remarket the Properties pursuant to Section 22.1 and fail to cause all of the Properties to be sold in accordance with the terms of Section 22.1 on the applicable anniversary of the Initial Closing Date on which such a sale is required in connection with such election, then in either case, Lessee shall pay to Lessor on the applicable anniversary date of the Initial Closing Date an amount equal to the Termination Value for all the Properties (which the parties do not intend to be a "bargain" purchase) and, upon receipt of such amount plus all Rent and other amounts then due and payable under this Lease and under any other Operative Agreement (including without limitation the amounts described in clause FIRST of Section 22.2), Lessor shall grant and transfer to Lessee all of Lessor's right, title and interest in and to the Properties in accordance with Section 19.1. 20.3 LESSOR'S TRANSFER OPTION. If, on the Construction Period Termination Date, either the aggregate Property Cost for all Properties then subject to the terms of this Lease is less than $25,000,000 or there are less than four (4) separate Properties subject to the terms of this Lease, then Lessor shall have the option to give Lessee irrevocable written notice that Lessor, on a Scheduled Interest Payment Date that is not less than thirty (30) days after the date of such written notice and not more than sixty (60) days after the Construction Period Termination Date, shall transfer and convey all of its right, title and interest in and to any or all of the Properties to Lessee. On any transfer and conveyance date specified by Lessor pursuant to this Section 20.3, (i) Lessor shall transfer and convey all of its right, title and interest in and to any or all of the Properties previously specified to Lessee, (ii) Lessee shall accept such transfer and conveyance of right, title and interest in and to the respective Property or Properties and (iii) Lessee shall pay the Termination Value for such respective Property or Properties and all Rent and other amounts then due and payable under this Lease and under any other Operative Agreement (including without limitation all costs and expenses referred to in clause FIRST of Section 22.2), in accordance with Section 19.1. ARTICLE XXI 21.1 RENEWAL. Provided that no Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and provided that the Lenders have agreed to extend the Maturity Date to a date that is identical to the final day of the Extended Term, at the Basic Term Expiration Date or at the expiration of any Extended Term, Lessee may renew this Lease (the "RENEWAL OPTION") for an Extended Term. Each renewal of this Lease for an Extended Term shall be on the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease for the original Term (which the parties do not intend to be "bargain" renewals). ARTICLE XXII 22.1 SALE PROCEDURE. (a) During the Marketing Period, Lessee, on behalf of the Lessor, shall obtain bids for the cash purchase of all of the Properties in connection with a sale to one or more purchasers to be consummated on the Expiration Date for the highest price available, shall notify Lessor promptly of the name and address of each prospective purchaser and the cash price which each prospective purchaser shall have offered to pay for any Property and shall provide Lessor with such additional information about the bids and the bid solicitation procedure as Lessor may reasonably request from time to time. Lessor may reject any and all bids and may assume sole responsibility for obtaining bids by giving Lessee written notice to that effect; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor may not reject the bids for the Properties submitted by the Lessee if such bids, in the aggregate, are greater than or equal to the sum of the Limited Recourse Amount for all of the Properties, plus all costs and expenses referred to in clause FIRST of Section 22.2 and represent bona fide offers from one or more third party purchasers. If the price which a prospective purchaser or purchasers shall have offered to pay for the Properties is less than the sum of the Limited Recourse Amount plus all costs and expenses referred to in clause FIRST of Section 22.2, Lessor may elect to retain the Properties by giving Lessee prior written notice of Lessor's election to retain the Properties, and upon receipt of such notice, Lessee shall surrender the Properties to Lessor pursuant to Section 10.1. Unless Lessor shall have elected to retain the Properties pursuant to the preceding sentence, Lessee shall arrange for Lessor to sell the Properties free of any Lessor Liens attributable to it, without recourse or warranty (of title or otherwise), for cash on the last day of the Marketing Period (such date being hereafter referred to as the "Sale Date") to the purchaser or purchasers identified by Lessee or Lessor, as the case may be; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, solely as to Lessor or the Trust Company, in its individual capacity, any Lessor Lien shall not constitute a Lessor Lien so long as Lessor or the Trust Company, in its individual capacity, is diligently contesting such Lessor Lien by appropriate proceedings. Lessee shall surrender the Property so sold or subject to such documents to each purchaser in the condition specified in Section 10.1. Lessee shall not take or fail to take any action where the taking or failure to take such action would have the effect of discouraging bona fide third party bids for any Property. If the Properties are not either (i) sold on the Sale Date in accordance with the terms of this Section 22.1, or (ii) retained by the Lessor pursuant to an affirmative election made by the Lessor pursuant to the third sentence of this Section 22.1(a), then the Lessee shall be obligated to pay the Lessor on the Sale Date an amount equal to the Termination Value for all of the Properties (plus all Rent and other amounts then due and payable under this Lease and any other Operative Agreements) in accordance with the terms of Section 20.2. (b) If the Properties are sold on the Sale Date to one or more third party purchasers in accordance with the terms of Section 22.1(a) and the aggregate purchase price paid for the Properties minus the sum of all costs and expenses referred to in clause FIRST of Section 22.2 is less than the sum of the aggregate Termination Values for all of the Properties plus all Rent and other amounts then due and payable under this Lease and under any other Operative Agreements (hereinafter such difference shall be referred to as the "Deficiency Balance"), then the Lessee hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lessor on the Sale Date the lesser of (i) the Deficiency Balance, or (ii) the Maximum Residual Guarantee Amount for all of the Properties. If the Properties are retained by the Lessor pursuant to an affirmative election made by the Lessor pursuant to the third sentence of Section 22.1(a), then the Lessee hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lessor on the Sale Date an amount equal to the aggregate Maximum Residual Guaranty Amounts for all of the Properties. (c) In the event that the Properties are either sold to one or more third party purchasers on the Sale Date or retained by the Lessor in connection with an affirmative election made by the Lessor pursuant to the third sentence of Section 22.1(a), then in either case on the Sale Date the Lessee shall provide Lessor or such third party purchaser with (i) all permits, certificates of occupancy, governmental licenses and authorizations necessary to use and operate such Property for its intended purposes, and (ii) such easements, licenses, rights-of-way and other rights and privileges in the nature of an easement as are reasonably necessary or desirable in connection with the use, repair, access to or maintenance of such Property for its intended purpose or otherwise as the Lessor shall reasonably request. All assignments, licenses, easements, agreements and other deliveries required by clauses (i) and (ii) of this paragraph (c) shall be in form satisfactory to the Lessor or such third party purchaser, as applicable, and shall be fully assignable (including both primary assignments and assignments given in the nature of security) without payment of any fee, cost or other charge. 22.2 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS OF SALE. The Lessor shall apply the proceeds of sale of any Property in the following order of priority: (i) FIRST, to pay or to reimburse Lessor for the payment of all reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with the sale; (ii) SECOND, so long as the Credit Agreement is in effect and any Holder Advances or any amount is owing to the Holders under any Operative Agreement, to the Agent to be applied pursuant to inter-creditor provisions between the Lenders and the Holders contained in the Operative Agreements; and (iii) THIRD, to the Lessee. 22.3 INDEMNITY FOR EXCESSIVE WEAR. If the proceeds of the sale described in Section 22.1 with respect to the Properties, less all expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with such sale, shall be less than the Limited Recourse Amount with respect to the Properties, and at the time of such sale it shall have been determined (pursuant to the Appraisal Procedure) that the Fair Market Sales Value of the Properties, shall have been impaired by greater than reasonably expected wear and tear during the term of the Lease, Lessee shall pay to Lessor within ten (10) days after receipt of Lessor's written statement (i) the amount of such excess wear and tear determined by the Appraisal Procedure or (ii) the amount of the Net Sale Proceeds Shortfall, whichever amount is less. 22.4 APPRAISAL PROCEDURE. For determining the Fair Market Sales Value of any Property or any other amount which may, pursuant to any provision of any Operative Agreement, be determined by an appraisal procedure, Lessor and Lessee shall use the following procedure (the "APPRAISAL PROCEDURE"). Lessor and Lessee shall endeavor to reach a mutual agreement as to such amount for a period of ten (10) days from commencement of the Appraisal Procedure under the applicable section of the Lease, and if they cannot agree within ten (10) days, then two qualified appraisers, one chosen by Lessee and one chosen by Lessor, shall mutually agree thereupon, but if either party shall fail to choose an appraiser within twenty (20) days after notice from the other party of the selection of its appraiser, then the appraisal by such appointed appraiser shall be binding on Lessee and Lessor. If the two appraisers cannot agree within twenty (20) days after both shall have been appointed, then a third appraiser shall be selected by the two appraisers or, failing agreement as to such third appraiser within (30) days after both shall have been appointed, by the American Arbitration Association. The decisions of the three appraisers shall be given within twenty (20) days of the appointment of the third appraiser and the decision of the appraiser most different from the average of the other two shall be discarded and such average shall be binding on Lessor and Lessee; PROVIDED that if the highest appraisal and the lowest appraisal are equidistant from the third appraisal, the third appraisal shall be binding on Lessor and Lessee.

ARTICLE XXIII 23.1 HOLDING OVER. If Lessee shall for any reason remain in possession of a Property after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease as to such Property (unless such Property is conveyed to Lessee), such possession shall be as a tenancy at sufferance during which time Lessee shall continue to pay Supplemental Rent that would be payable by Lessee hereunder were the Lease then in full force and effect with respect to the Property and Lessee shall continue to pay Basic Rent at 110% of the Basic Rent that would otherwise be due and payable at such time.

During any period of tenancy at sufferance, Lessee shall, subject to the second preceding sentence, be obligated to perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, but shall have no rights hereunder other than the right, to the extent given by law to tenants at sufferance, to continue their occupancy and use of such Property. Nothing contained in this Article XXIII shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Lessor to the holding over of Lessee after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease as to any Property (unless such Property is conveyed to Lessee) and nothing contained herein shall be read or construed as preventing Lessor from maintaining a suit for possession of such Property or exercising any other remedy available to Lessor at law or in equity. ARTICLE XXIV 24.1 RISK OF LOSS. During the Term, unless Lessee shall not be in actual possession of the Property in question solely by reason of Lessor's exercise of its remedies of dispossession under Article XVII, the risk of loss or decrease in the enjoyment and beneficial use of such Property as a result of the damage or destruction thereof by fire, the elements, casualties, thefts, riots, wars or otherwise is assumed by Lessee, and Lessor shall in no event be answerable or accountable therefor. ARTICLE XXV 25.1 ASSIGNMENT. (a) Lessee may not assign this Lease or any of its rights or obligations hereunder in whole or in part to any Person unless either (i) the Lessee obtains the prior written consent of the Agent and the Lessor, with such consent to be given or withheld in the sole discretion of each such party or (ii) such transfer is to the Guarantor or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Guarantor and the Guarantor consents in writing to such assignment. (b) No such assignment or other relinquishment of possession to any Property shall in any way discharge or diminish any of the obligations of Lessee to Lessor hereunder and Lessee shall remain directly and primarily liable under this Lease as to any assignment regarding this Lease. 25.2 SUBLEASES. (a) Promptly following the execution and delivery of any sublease permitted by this Article XXV, Lessee shall notify Lessor and the Agent of the execution of such sublease. As of the date of each Lease Supplement, Lessee shall lease the respective Properties described in such Lease Supplement from Lessor, and any existing tenant respecting such Property shall automatically be deemed to be a subtenant of Lessee and not a tenant of Lessor. (b) Without the consent of the Lessor, Lessee may (i) sublet up to 100% of an undivided Property to any wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of the Guarantor, or (ii) sublet not more than 50% of an undivided Property to any other Person or Persons provided that, in each case, the term of such sublease or subleases does not extend beyond the Term. Lessee may not sublet any Property or portion thereof in addition to that referenced in the preceding sentence without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Lessor, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. (c) No such sublease or other relinquishment of possession to any Property shall in any way discharge or diminish any of Lessee's obligations to Lessor hereunder and Lessee shall remain directly and primarily liable under this Lease as to the Property, or portion thereof, so sublet. ARTICLE XXVI 26.1 NO WAIVER. No failure by Lessor or Lessee to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy upon a default hereunder, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any such default, shall constitute a waiver of any such default or of any such term. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no waiver of any default shall affect or alter this Lease, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent default. ARTICLE XXVII 27.1 ACCEPTANCE OF SURRENDER.

The Guarantor agrees that the obligations of the Guarantor under Section 2.01 hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Operative Agreements, or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the FHMS Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety, guarantor or co-obligor, it being the intent of this Section 2.02 that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above: (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the FHMS Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Operative Agreements or any other agreement or instrument referred therein shall be done or omitted; (iii) the maturity of any of the FHMS Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the FHMS Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under any of the Operative Agreements or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the FHMS Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; (iv) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Agent, the Lenders or the Holders as security for any of the FHMS Obligations (or as security for the guarantee thereof by the Guarantor) shall fail to attach or be perfected; or (v) any of the FHMS Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person. 2.03 REINSTATEMENT. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Section 2 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the FHMS Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the FHMS Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise. 2.04 WAIVERS BY THE GUARANTOR. (a) With respect to its obligations hereunder, the Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Owner Trustee exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Operative Agreements or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the FHMS Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or of any other provision of this Guaranty Agreement, and to the extent permitted by law, the Guarantor also hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of (as a defense or otherwise): (i) Any right to require the Owner Trustee to proceed against FHMS or any other Person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by the Owner Trustee at any time or to pursue any other remedy available to the Owner Trustee under any other agreement before proceeding against the Guarantor hereunder; (ii) The defense of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder; (iii) Any defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any other Person or Persons or the failure of the Owner Trustee to file or enforce a claim against the estate (in administration, bankruptcy or any other proceeding) of any other Person or Persons; (iv) Any failure on the part of the Owner Trustee to ascertain the extent or nature of the collateral subject to any of the Security Documents or any insurance or other rights with respect thereto, or the liability of any party liable with respect to the FHMS Obligations; (v) Any defense based upon an election of remedies by the Owner Trustee; (vi) Any right or claim to cause a marshaling of the assets of the Guarantor; (vii) Any principle or provision of law, statutory or otherwise, which is or might be in conflict with the terms and provisions of this Guaranty Agreement; (viii) Any duty on the part of the Owner Trustee to disclose to the Guarantor any facts that the Owner Trustee may now or hereafter know about FHMS or the Properties, regardless of whether the Owner Trustee has reason to believe that any such facts materially increase the risk beyond that which the Guarantor intends to assume or has reason to believe that such facts are unknown to the Guarantor or has a reasonable opportunity to communicate such facts to the Guarantor, it being understood and agreed that the Guarantor is fully responsible for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of FHMS, of the condition of the Properties, and of any and all circumstances bearing on the risk that liability may be incurred by the Guarantor hereunder; (ix) Any lack of notice of disposition or of manner of disposition of any collateral subject to any of the Security Documents; (x) Failure to properly record any document or any other lack of due diligence by the Owner Trustee in creating or perfecting a security interest in or collection, protection or realization upon any Property or in obtaining reimbursement or performance from any Person or entity now or hereafter liable for the FHMS Obligations; (xi) The inaccuracy of any representation or other provision contained in any Operative Agreement (other than a representation by the Owner Trustee); (xii) Any sale or assignment of the FHMS Obligations or the Operative Agreements, in whole or in part; (xiii) Any sale or assignment by FHMS of any Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein, whether or not consented to by the Owner Trustee and any release by the Owner Trustee of any Property; (xiv) Any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any one or more of the Operative Agreements; (xv) Any lack of commercial reasonableness in dealing with any Property; (xvi) Any deficiencies in any Property or any deficiency in the ability of the Owner Trustee to collect or to obtain performance from any Persons or entities now or hereafter liable for the payment and performance of any of the FHMS Obligations; (xvii) An assertion or claim that the automatic stay provided by 11 U.S.C. Section 362 (arising upon the voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding of FHMS) or any other stay provided under any other debtor relief law (whether statutory, common law, case law or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, which may be or become applicable, shall operate or be interpreted to stay, interdict, condition, reduce or inhibit the ability of the Owner Trustee, to enforce any of its rights, whether now or hereafter acquired, which the Owner Trustee may have against the Guarantor or the Property; (xviii) Any modification of the Operative Agreements or any obligation of FHMS relating to the FHMS Obligations by operation of law or by action of any court, whether pursuant to the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended, or any other debtor relief law (whether statutory, common law, case law or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, or otherwise; (xix) Any change in the composition of FHMS; (xx) The release of FHMS or of any other Person or entity from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any agreements, documents or instruments; and (xxi) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any rights and benefits which might otherwise be available to any guarantor under California Civil Code Sections 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2822, 2839, 2845 through 2847, 2848, 2849, 2850, 2899 and 3433, and California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, and any successor sections to such sections of the Civil Code and Code of Civil Procedures. The Guarantor expressly acknowledges and agrees to the foregoing waivers in subclause (xxi) and the Guarantor further understands (with respect to California law) that: (A) Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure generally prohibits a deficiency judgment against a borrower after a non- judicial foreclosure; (B) Guarantor's subrogation rights may be destroyed by a non-judicial foreclosure under the Mortgage Instrument (because the Guarantor may not be able to pursue FHMS for a deficiency judgment by reason of the application of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure); (C) under UNION BANK V. GRADSKY, 265 Cal. App. 2nd 40 (1968), a lender may be estopped from pursuing a guarantor for a deficiency judgment after a non- judicial foreclosure (on the theory that a guarantor should be exonerated if a lender elects a remedy that eliminates the guarantor's subrogation rights) absent an explicit waiver, and (D) GRADSKY, SUPRA PROVIDES THAT THE GUARANTOR MAY WAIVE THAT DEFENSE, THUS ALLOWING A LENDER TO PURSUE THE GUARANTOR ON ITS GUARANTEE EVEN THOUGH THE GUARANTOR WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PURSUE FHMS BECAUSE THE GUARANTOR'S SUBROGATION RIGHTS WILL HAVE BEEN DESTROYED. Without limitation on the generality of the other waivers contained in this Guaranty Agreement, the Guarantor hereby waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the creditor, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Guarantor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure of California or otherwise. (b) Without limitation to the provisions of the preceding subparagraph (a) or any other term or provision of this Guaranty Agreement, the Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees and consents to (i) the conveyance by the Owner Trustee from time to time of all or any part of the Property, as determined by Owner Trustee in its sole discretion, without notice to or consent of the Guarantor, and (ii) the non-recourse provisions of Section 14.10 of the Participation Agreement. 2.05 EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES.

or (viii) The Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate shall have been notified by the sponsor of a Multiemployer Plan that has incurred Withdrawal Liability to such Multiemployer Plan in an amount that, when aggregated with all other amounts required to be paid to Multiemployer Plans by the Guarantor and its ERISA Affiliates as Withdrawal Liability (determined as of the date of such notification), exceeds 5% of the Guarantor's Consolidated Net Worth; or (ix) The Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate shall have been notified by the sponsor of a Multiemployer Plan that such Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or is being terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA, if as a result of such reorganization or termination the aggregate annual contributions of the Guarantor and its ERISA Affiliates to all Multiemployer Plans that are then in reorganization or being terminated have been or will be increased over the amounts contributed to such Multiemployer Plans for the respective plan year of each such Multiemployer Plan immediately preceding the plan year in which the reorganization or termination occurs by an amount exceeding 5% of the Guarantor's Consolidated Net Worth;

it being understood that if the Guarantor reaches a written agreement with such HMO Regulator during such thirty-day (or shorter) period which cures (or provides a means for the cure of) such HMO Event to such HMO Regulator's satisfaction, then no Event of Default shall exist under this subsection (xii)); or (xiii) Any Existing Credit Agreement Event of Default; or (xiv) Any Lease Event of Default. (b) REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, then, and in any such event, the Owner Trustee may by notice to the Guarantor declare its obligations under the Operative Agreements to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and the Owner Trustee shall have the right to exercise its remedies in accordance with Article XVII of the Lease and the Owner Trustee may, without the necessity of further action, call upon the Guarantor for prompt payment and/or performance. The Guarantor agrees that, as between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Owner Trustee, on the other hand, the FHMS Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in the Lease (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in the Lease) for purposes of Section 2.01 hereof, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such FHMS Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or such FHMS Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such FHMS Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for purposes of said Section 2.01. 2.06 NO SUBROGATION; NO RECOURSE AGAINST OWNER TRUSTEE. Notwithstanding the satisfaction by the Guarantor of any liability of the Guarantor hereunder, the Guarantor shall not have any right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnity whatsoever or any right of recourse to or with respect to the assets or property of FHMS or to any Property. In connection with the foregoing, the Guarantor expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation to the Owner Trustee against FHMS, and the Guarantor hereby waives any rights to enforce any remedy which the Owner Trustee may have against FHMS and any right to participate in any Property. Further, the Guarantor shall have no right of recourse against the Owner Trustee by reason of any action that the Owner Trustee may take or omit to take under the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement or under the provisions of any of the Operative Agreements. 2.07 CONTINUING GUARANTEE.

In the event a waiver is granted under the Existing Credit Agreement or an amendment or modification is executed with respect to the Existing Credit Agreement, and such waiver, amendment and/or modification affects the Incorporated Representations and Warranties or the Incorporated Covenants, then such waiver, amendment or modification shall automatically be effective with respect to the Incorporated Representations and Warranties and the Incorporated Covenants as incorporated by reference into this Guaranty Agreement without further action. If any Lender is not a lender under the Existing Credit Agreement, Guarantor shall deliver to such Lender a copy of the waiver, amendment or modification affecting the Incorporated Representations or Warranties or the Incorporated Covenants.

The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Owner Trustee would otherwise have.

A common-law employee of the Company, or of any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, shall be eligible to participate in the Plan as an Eligible Employee if: (a) His or her total annualized Base Salary from the Company or a subsidiary for the calendar year in which the deferral election is made will not be less than $75,000 and, commencing with the 1996 calendar year, shall not be less than $120,000; or (b) He or she has expressly been designated as an Eligible Employee by the Committee. Furthermore, no individual shall participate if his or her participation would cause the Plan to fail to be a plan that is maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, within the meaning of sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(1) of ERISA. SECTION 4. ELECTION TO PARTICIPATE IN PLAN. (a) An Eligible Participant may elect to participate in the Plan by filing a written election of deferral of Compensation with the Company during any Election Period. Such election shall apply to all Compensation to be paid in payroll periods commencing after the close of such Election Period. The election shall specify the percentage of the Eligible Participant's Compensation to which it applies, separately as respect to Base Salary and bonus, which may be any whole percentage between 1% and 90% of such Base Salary and bonus (so long as the amount of Base Salary and bonus not deferred is sufficient to fund the Eligible Participant's tax and employee benefit obligations). An Eligible Participant may change his or her deferral percentage (or reduce it to zero) by filing a new deferral election with the Company during any Election Period. The change shall be effective with respect to all Compensation to be paid in payroll periods commencing after the close of such Election Period. (b) All deferral elections under this Section 4 shall be made on the form(s) prescribed for this purpose by the Company. SECTION 5. MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS. (a) The Company shall credit the Account of each participating Designated Eligible Employee with a matching contribution, as of the end of each calendar month to which an election to participate under Section 4(a) applies. A Designated Eligible Employee shall be an Eligible Employee whose Base Salary for the calendar year in which the deferral election is made will not be less than $100,000 and, commencing with the 1996 calendar year, shall not be less than $120,000. The amount of the matching contribution under this Plan shall be equal to the amount of Compensation deferred by the Designated Eligible Employee under Section 4 of this Plan for the calendar month, but only to the extent that such amount does not exceed 10% of the Designated Eligible Employee's Compensation for such month. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in no event will the aggregate matching contributions for the Year exceed 10% of the Designated Eligible Employee's Compensation for the Year. (b) Subsection (a) above notwithstanding, matching contributions credited under this Plan (and the interest credited thereon under Section 7(a)) shall be distributed to the Designated Eligible Employee under Section 8 only to the extent that such matching contributions (and interest) would be vested under the 401(k) Plan's vesting schedule. The balance, if any, of such matching contributions (and interest) shall be forfeited upon the termination of the Eligible Employee's employment. In the event that the Designated Eligible Employee is reemployed by the Company or one of its subsidiaries, the amount so forfeited shall be restored to his or her Account to the extent that such amount would be restored under the 401(k) Plan. SECTION 6. ESTABLISHMENT OF ACCOUNTS. (a) The Company shall establish an Account for each Eligible Participant who has duly filed a deferral election with respect to his or her Compensation. An Eligible Participant shall have only one Account. (b) An Eligible Participant's Account shall be credited with an amount equal to that percentage of each Compensation payment which would have been payable currently to the Eligible Participant but for the terms of the deferral election. Deferred Compensation shall be credited to the Eligible Participant's Account as soon as reasonably practicable after the applicable payment date. The Company's matching contributions under Section 5 to Designated Eligible Participants shall also be credited to the Accounts of the appropriate Designated Eligible Participants. SECTION 7. TREATMENT OF ACCOUNTS DURING DEFERRAL PERIOD. (a) Interest shall be credited on the ending balance in each Account as of the close of each calendar month. The interest shall become a part of the Account and shall be paid at the same time or times as the balance of the Account. The interest for each month during the deferral period shall be at a rate equal to (i) for the period prior to May 1, 1994, the weighted average of the reference rates announced from time to time during such month by Citibank N.A. plus 1/4 of 1% and (ii) for the period beginning July 1, 1994, 140% of Moody's Seasoned Corporate Bond Rate as of the last day of the month. The interest shall be compounded monthly. (b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the close of each calendar quarter (and after such other dates as the Committee may determine), the Company shall prepare and deliver to each Eligible Participant who has an Account a written statement showing the amount credited to such Account as of the applicable date. SECTION 8. FORM AND TIME OF PAYMENT OF ACCOUNTS. (a) Payment of an Account shall be made in such increments and commencing at such time as the Eligible Participant shall specify in writing on his or her deferral election form. The amount of any installment to be paid from an Account, unless otherwise permitted, shall be determined by dividing the balance remaining in such Account by the number of installments then remaining to be distributed from such Account. (b) Participants designated by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company from time to time shall have the ability to elect payment of an Account other than the standard payments (described in subsection (a) above), which permissible Account payments shall include payment in a lump sum or in monthly, quarterly or annual installments over such period of years (not exceeding 20 years) as specified in the election form. (c) Prior to the time of payment specified by the Eligible Participant on his or her deferral election form, the Eligible Participant may elect to change the terms of payment of his or her Account, provided that such change does not accelerate payments from such Account under any circumstances. Any such change shall be in writing and shall be effective upon receipt by the Company. (d) In the event of the Eligible Participant's Total Disability, the Committee may determine in its sole discretion that payment of the Eligible Participant's Account shall be made in a different form or at an earlier date than the time or times specified on his or her deferral election form. (e) In the event of an Eligible Participant's Unforeseeable Emergency, subject to the prior approval of the Committee, the Eligible Participant may elect to receive a distribution of the portion of his or her Account (up to 100%) that is necessary to meet the Eligible Participant's emergency need. (f) Subject to the prior approval of the Committee, an Eligible Participant may elect to receive a lump sum distribution from the Plan of 90% of his or her Account, at any time and for any reason; provided, however, that the remaining 10% of the Eligible Participant's Account shall be irrevocably forfeited. After making a withdrawal under this Section 8(f), the Eligible Participant shall cease participating, shall never be eligible to resume participation in the Plan and shall not be entitled to any further benefits under the Plan. SECTION 9. EFFECT OF DEATH OF PARTICIPANT. (a) Upon the death of an Eligible Participant, the amount (if any) remaining in his or her Account shall be distributed to his or her Beneficiary. The distribution(s) shall be made at the time when the distribution(s) to the Eligible Participant would have been made, unless the Committee determines in its sole discretion that payment(s) shall be made at an earlier date. (b) Upon commencement of participation, each Eligible Participant shall, by filing the prescribed form with the Company, name a person or persons as the Beneficiary who will receive any distribution payable under the Plan in the event of the Eligible Participant's death. If the Eligible Participant has not named a Beneficiary or if none of the named Beneficiaries is living when any payment is to be made, then (i) the spouse of the deceased Eligible Participant shall be the Beneficiary or (ii) if the Eligible Participant has no spouse living at the time of such payment, the then living children of the deceased Eligible Participant shall be the Beneficiaries in equal shares or (iii) if the Eligible Participant has neither spouse nor children living at the time of such payment, the estate of the Eligible Participant shall be the Beneficiary. The Eligible Participant may change the designation of a Beneficiary from time to time in accordance with procedures established by the Company. Any designation of a Beneficiary (or an amendment or revocation thereof) shall be effective only if it is made in writing on the prescribed form and is received by the Company prior to the Eligible Participant's death. SECTION 10. WITHHOLDING TAXES. All distributions under the Plan shall be subject to reduction to reflect any withholding tax obligations imposed by law. The Company shall withhold from the Eligible Participants Base Salary or bonus, as applicable, any FICA or other employment tax obligations as they become due. SECTION 11. PARTICIPANT'S RIGHTS UNSECURED. The interest under the Plan of any participating Eligible Participant, and such Eligible Participant's right to receive a distribution from his or her Account, shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company. The Accounts shall be unfunded bookkeeping entries only. No Eligible Participant shall have an interest in or claim against any specific asset of the Company pursuant to the Plan. SECTION 12. NONASSIGNABILITY OF INTERESTS. The interest and property rights of an Eligible Participant under the Plan shall not be subject to option nor be assignable either by voluntary or involuntary assignment or by operation of law, including (without limitation) bankruptcy, garnishment, attachment or other creditor's process, and any act in violation of this Section 12 shall be void. SECTION 13. LIMITATION OF RIGHTS. (a) Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to give any Eligible Employee any right to be granted a bonus award. (b) Neither the Plan nor the deferral of any Compensation, nor any other action taken pursuant to the Plan, shall constitute or be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express or implied, that the Company or any subsidiary of the Company will employ an Eligible Employee for any period of time, in any position or at any particular rate of compensation. The Company and its subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate an Eligible Employee's employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause, except as otherwise expressly provided in a written employment agreement. SECTION 14. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have full power, authority and discretion to administer and interpret the Plan, to establish procedures for administering the Plan, to prescribe forms and to take any and all necessary actions in connection with the Plan. The Committee's interpretation and construction of the Plan shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. For purposes of the Plan, "Change of Control" shall have the meaning set forth in the agreement governing the Trust. SECTION 15. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. The Committee may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, with the vote of 80% of the participants entitled to benefits hereunder, and expressly reserves the right to change the interest rate set forth in Section 7(a) on a prospective basis. In the event of a termination, the Accounts of Eligible Participants shall be paid at such time and in such form as shall be determined pursuant to Section 8, unless the Committee prescribes an earlier time or different form for the payment of such Accounts. SECTION 16. TRUST (a) The Company shall establish the Trust, and the Company shall transfer over to the Trust each year such assets as are necessary to provide for the Company's future liabilities created with respect to the Plan for such year, in accordance with the provisions of the Trust. (b) The provisions of the Plan shall govern the rights of a Eligible Participant to receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. The provisions of the Trust shall govern the rights of the Company, Eligible Participants and the creditors of the Company to the assets transferred to the Trust. The Company shall at all times remain liable to carry out its obligations under the Plan. The Company's obligations under the Plan may be satisfied with Trust assets distributed pursuant to the terms of the Trust, and any such distribution shall reduce the Company's obligations under this Plan. SECTION 17. LIMITATION ON PAYMENTS. (a) Any other provision of the Plan notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any payment or transfer any property to, or for the benefit of, the Eligible Participants (under this Plan or otherwise) that would be nondeductible by the Company by reason of section 280G of the Code or that would subject the Eligible Participants to the excise tax described in section 4999 of the Code. All calculations required by this section shall be performed by the Company's independent auditors selected by the Board of Directors prior to a Change of Control ("Auditors"), based on information supplied by the Company and the Eligible Participants and shall be binding on the Company and the Eligible Participants. All fees and expenses of the Auditors to determine such amounts shall be paid by the Company. (b) If the amount of the aggregate payments or property transfers to an Eligible Participant must be reduced under this section, then such Eligible Participant shall direct in which order the payments or transfers are to be reduced, but no change in the timing of any payment or transfer shall be made without the Company's consent. As a result of uncertainty in the application of sections 280G and 4999 of the Code at the time of an initial determination by the Auditors hereunder, it is possible that a payment will have been made by the Company that should not have been made (an "Overpayment") or that an additional payment will not have been made by the Company that could have been made (an "Underpayment"). In the event that the Auditors, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against the Company or the Eligible Participants that the Auditors believe has a high probability of success, determine that an Overpayment has been made, such Overpayment shall be treated for all purposes as a loan to the Eligible Participant that he shall repay to the Company, together with interest at the applicable federal rate specified in section 7872(f)(2) of the Code; provided, however, that no amount shall be payable by the Eligible Participant to the Company if and to the extent that such payment would not reduce the amount that is nondeductible under section 280G of the Code or is subject to an excise tax under section 4999 of the Code. In the event that the Auditors determine that an Underpayment has occurred, such Underpayment shall promptly be paid or transferred by the Company to, or for the benefit of, the Eligible Participant, together with interest at the applicable federal rate specified in section 7872(f)(2) of the Code. SECTION 18. CHOICE OF LAW AND CLAIMS PROCEDURE. (a) The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of the Plan shall be governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and, to the extent they are not preempted, by the laws of the State of California. (b) In accordance with the regulations of the U.S. Secretary of Labor, the Committee shall (i) provide adequate notice in writing to any Eligible Participant or Beneficiary whose claim for benefits under the Plan has been denied, setting forth the specific reasons for such denial and written in a manner calculated to be understood by such Eligible Participant or Beneficiary, and (ii) afford a reasonable opportunity to any Eligible Participant or Beneficiary whose claim for benefits has been denied for a full and fair review by the Board of the decision denying the claim. SECTION 19. MISCELLANEOUS (a) The interest in the benefits hereunder of a spouse of a Eligible Participant who has predeceased the Eligible Participant shall automatically pass to the Eligible Participant and shall not be transferable by such spouse in any manner, including but not limited to such spouse's will, nor shall such interest pass under the laws of intestate succession. (b) The Committee is authorized to make any payments directed by court order in any action in which the Plan or the Committee has been named as party. (c) The Company is aware that upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Board (which might then be composed of new members) or a stockholder of the Company, or of any successor corporation might then cause or attempt to cause the Company or such successor to refuse to comply with its obligations under the Plan and might cause or attempt to cause the Company to institute, or may institute, litigation seeking to deny Participants the benefits intended under the Plan. In these circumstances, the purpose of the Plan could be frustrated. Accordingly, if, following a Change of Control, it should appear to any Eligible Participant that the Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under the Plan or any agreement thereunder or, if the Company or any other person takes any action to declare the Plan void or unenforceable or institutes any litigation or other legal action designed to deny, diminish or to recover from any Eligible Participant the benefits intended to be provided hereunder, then the Company irrevocably authorizes such Eligible Participant to retain counsel of his or her choice at the expense of the Company to represent such Eligible Participant in connection with the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal action, whether by or against the Company or any director, officer, stockholder or other person affiliated with the Company or any successor thereto in any jurisdiction. SECTION 20. EXECUTION.

INTRODUCTION. The Foundation Health Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan was established effective July 1, 1994, and it was amended and restated effective April 25, 1995. The purpose of the Plan is to supplement retirement benefits provided to designated executives of the Company.

Except as otherwise provided, this limitation shall be applied to all distributions under this Plan. If the Company determines in good faith prior to a Change of Control that there is a reasonable likelihood that any compensation paid to a Participant for a taxable year of the Company would not be deductible by the Company solely by reason of the limitation under Code Section 162(m), then to the extent deemed necessary by the Company to ensure that the entire amount of any distribution to the Participant pursuant to this Plan prior to the Change of Control is deductible, the Company may defer all or any portion of a distribution under this Plan. The amounts so deferred shall be distributed to the Participant or his or her Beneficiary (in the event of the Participant's death) at the earliest possible date, as determined by the Company in good faith, on which the deductibility of compensation paid or payable to the Participant for the taxable year of the Company during which the distribution is made will not be limited by Section 162(m), or if earlier, the effective date of a Change of Control. (g) "ERISA" shall mean the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time.

(i) "HOUR OF SERVICE" means each hour for which an individual is directly or indirectly paid or entitled to payment for the performance of duties for the Company or a subsidiary of the Company; provided, however, that service with a subsidiary that was acquired by the Company shall be disregarded to the extent such service was performed prior to the date of such acquisition. For purposes of determining a Participant's vested percentage under Section 4, a Participant shall be credited with 190 Hours of Service for each month in which a Participant is totally and permanently disabled and not engaged in any employment. (j) "PARTICIPANT" means an executive of the Company listed in Appendix A, as amended from time to time. (k) "PLAN" means this Foundation Health Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, as amended from time to time. (l) "PLAN BENEFIT" means the annual Plan Benefit specified in Section 5. (m) "RETIREMENT BENEFIT" means a Normal Retirement Benefit under Section 7(a) or an Early Retirement Benefit under Section 7(b). (n) "TRUST" shall mean the trust established pursuant to that certain Trust Agreement, dated as of July 1, 1994, between the Company and the trustee named therein, as amended from time to time. (o) "YEAR OF SERVICE" means a calendar year after 1988 in which an individual completes 1,000 Hours of Service. SECTION 3. PARTICIPATION. All executives of the Company designated in Appendix A shall participate in the Plan; provided, however, that no executive shall participate until he or she elects to receive his or her Retirement Benefit in the form of either (i) annuity payments under either Subsection 7(c)(i) or 7(c)(ii), as applicable or (ii) a lump sum distribution under Subsection 7(c)(iii). Furthermore, no executive shall participate if his or her participation would cause the Plan to fail to be a plan that is maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, within the meaning of sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. SECTION 4. VESTING. A Participant's vested percentage shall be determined in accordance with the following schedule:

SECTION 5. AMOUNT OF PLAN BENEFITS. A Participant's annual Plan Benefit shall be equal to the Participant's Final Base Salary multiplied by (i) the Participant's vested percentage and (ii) 70% (as adjusted for distributions prior to age 60 in accordance with Section 7(b)). SECTION 6. PRE-RETIREMENT SURVIVOR BENEFITS. If a married Participant dies prior to the termination of his or her employment with the Company and its subsidiaries, the Participant's surviving spouse shall receive monthly payments from the Company for life, commencing on the date of the Participant's death, equal to 66-2/3 of the monthly Retirement Benefit that the Participant would have received had the Participant terminated employment on the date of his or her death and commenced a Retirement Benefit on the later of (i) the date of the Participant's death and (ii) the date the Participant would have attained age 55. In addition, if the surviving spouse dies before 180 of such monthly payments have been made, the Participant's contingent Beneficiary shall receive the balance of the 180 payments. If an unmarried Participant dies prior to the termination of his or her employment with the Company and its subsidiaries, his or her Beneficiary shall receive 180 monthly payments from the Company, commencing on the date of the Participant's death, equal to 66-2/3 of the monthly Retirement Benefit that the Participant would have received had the Participant terminated employment on the date of his or her death and commenced a Retirement Benefit on the later of (i) the date of the Participant's death and (ii) the date the Participant would have attained age 55. SECTION 7. DISTRIBUTIONS OF PLAN BENEFITS FOLLOWING TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. (a) NORMAL RETIREMENT. A Participant's monthly "Normal Retirement Benefit" is equal to his or her Plan Benefit divided by 12. A Participant who terminates employment with the Company and its subsidiaries on or after attaining age 60 and completing at least 5 Years of Service shall receive a Normal Retirement Benefit commencing as soon as practicable following termination of employment, in the form specified under Paragraph (c) below. (b) EARLY RETIREMENT. A Participant's monthly "Early Retirement Benefit" is equal to his or her Plan Benefit, calculated by reducing the 70% factor set forth in Section 5 by two percentage points for each year that distribution commences before the Participant has attained age 60, divided by 12. A Participant who terminates employment with the Company and its subsidiaries prior to attaining age 60 and after completing at least 5 Years of Service shall receive an Early Retirement Benefit commencing as soon as practicable following the later of the date the Participant attains age 55 or the date of the Participant's termination of employment, in the form specified under Paragraph (c) below. (c) FORMS OF DISTRIBUTION. 1. ANNUITY PAYMENTS TO UNMARRIED PARTICIPANTS. A Participant who is unmarried on the date as of which payment of his or her Retirement Benefit is to commence and who has elected annuity payments pursuant to Section 3 shall receive his or her Retirement Benefit in the form of a 15 year certain and life annuity under which the Participant shall receive monthly pay- ments from the Company equal to the Participant's Retirement Benefit for his or her life and, if the Participant dies before receiving 180 payments, the Participant's Beneficiary shall receive the balance of the 180 payments. 2. ANNUITY PAYMENTS TO MARRIED PARTICIPANTS. A Participant who is married on the date as of which payment of his or her Retirement Benefit is to commence and who has elected annuity payments pursuant to Section 3 shall receive his or her Retirement Benefit in the form of a 15 year certain joint and survivor annuity under which (A) the Participant shall receive monthly payments from the Company equal to the Participant's Retirement Benefit for his or her life, (B) if the Participant dies before receiving 180 payments and is not survived by his or her spouse, the Participant's Beneficiary shall receive monthly payments from the Company equal to 66-2/3 of the Participant's Retirement Benefit for the balance of the 180 payments, (C) if the Participant dies and is survived by his or her spouse, the Participant's surviving spouse shall receive monthly payments from the Company equal to 66-2/3 of the Participant's Retirement Benefit for his or her life and (D) if the Participant dies and is survived by his or her spouse, and if the surviving spouse dies before 180 payments have been made to the Participant and/or to the surviving spouse, the Participant's contingent Beneficiary shall receive monthly payments from the Company equal to 66-2/3 of the Participant's Retirement Benefit for the balance of the 180 payments. 3. LUMP SUM DISTRIBUTION. A Participant who has elected a lump sum distribution pursuant to Section 3 shall receive a single lump sum payment in cash equal to the actuarial equivalent of his or her Retirement Benefit (calculated as if such Participant were unmarried). If a lump sum distribution is elected, no benefits shall be payable from the Plan upon the Participant's death (other than a payment of the lump sum distribution to the Benefi- ciary of the Participant in the event that the Participant dies after electing a lump sum and before receiving payment). 4. CHANGE OF DISTRIBUTION OPTION. Subject to the prior approval of the Committee, a Participant may change the election of the form of distribution made pursuant to Section 3 at any time prior to the commencement of his or her Retirement Benefit under the Plan; however, in no event may such change of election be made less than one-year prior to commencement of benefits. SECTION 8. LUMP SUM WITHDRAWALS. A Participant (who has completed at least 5 Years of Service) who has not yet terminated employment with the Company and its subsidiaries, or a Participant who has terminated employment with the Company and its subsidiaries and elected to receive annuity payments pursuant to Section 3, may elect to receive a lump sum distribution from the Plan at any time and for any reason. The amount of the Participant's lump sum distribution shall be equal to 90% of the actuarial equivalent of his or her Retirement Benefit (determined as if the Participant were unmarried, and actuarially reduced to take into account any prior distributions of the Participant's Retirement Benefit under the Plan); provided, however, that the remaining 10% of the Participant's Retirement Benefit shall be irrevocably forfeited. After making a withdrawal under this Section 8, the Participant shall cease participating, shall never be eligible to resume participation in the Plan and shall receive no further benefits under the Plan. SECTION 9. WITHHOLDING TAXES. All distributions under the Plan shall be subject to reduction to reflect any withholding tax obligations imposed by law. As the Participant becomes vested in his Retirement Benefits, the Company shall pay on his behalf any FICA or other employment tax obligations then becoming due; provided, further the Company shall pay to the Participant additional compensation in the year in which such payments are made to equal the Participant's federal, state and local tax liability, if any, as a result of the payment of such FICA or other tax obligations at the highest marginal federal and state tax rate. SECTION 10. PARTICIPANT'S RIGHTS UNSECURED. The interest under the Plan of any Participant, surviving spouse or Beneficiary shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company. No Participant, surviving spouse or Beneficiary shall have an interest in or claim against any specific asset of the Company pursuant to the Plan. SECTION 11. NONASSIGNABILITY OF INTERESTS. The interest and property rights of a Participant, surviving spouse or Beneficiary under the Plan shall not be subject to option nor be assignable either by voluntary or involuntary assignment or by operation of law, including (without limitation) bankruptcy, garnishment, attachment or other creditor's process, and any act in violation of this Section 11 shall be void. SECTION 12. LIMITATION OF RIGHTS. Neither the Plan nor any other action taken pursuant to the Plan shall constitute or be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express or implied, that the Company or any subsidiary of the Company will employ a Participant for any period of time, in any position or at any particular rate of compensation. The Company and its subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate a Participant's employment at any time and for any reason, except as otherwise expressly provided in a written employment agreement. SECTION 13. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have full power, authority and discretion to administer and interpret the Plan, to establish procedures for administering the Plan, to prescribe forms and to take any and all necessary actions in connection with the Plan. The Committee's interpretation and construction of the Plan shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. Determinations of actuarial equivalence shall be made by an actuary employed by a nationally recognized actuarial firm selected either (i) prior to a Change of Control by the Company or (ii) after a Change of Control by the Board of Directors of the Company as constituted immediately prior to the Change of Control. For purposes of the Plan, "Change of Control" shall have the meaning set forth in the agreement governing the Trust. Determinations of actuarial equivalence shall be made using an interest rate no greater than the Moody's AAA Bond Rate and using a mortality table no less favorable than the UP-1984 mortality table. SECTION 14. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. The Committee may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, but only with the vote of 80% of the Participants entitled to benefits hereunder; provided that no amendment, suspension or termination shall reduce an individual's benefits under the Plan that were earned as of the date immediately prior to such amendment, suspension or termination. SECTION 15. TRUST. (a) ESTABLISHMENT OF THE TRUST. The Company shall establish the Trust, and the Company shall transfer over to the Trust each year such assets as are necessary to provide for the Company's future liabilities created with respect to the Plan for such year, in accordance with the provisions of the Trust. (b) INTERRELATIONSHIP OF THE PLAN AND THE TRUST. The provisions of the Plan shall govern the rights of a Participant or Beneficiary to receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. The provisions of the Trust shall govern the rights of the Company, Participants, Beneficiaries and the creditors of the Company to the assets in the Trust. The Company shall at all times remain liable to carry out its obligations under the Plan. The Company's obligations under the Plan may be satisfied with Trust assets distributed pursuant to the terms of the Trust, and any such distribution shall reduce the Company's obligations under this Plan. SECTION 16. CHANGE OF CONTROL. If during the term of this Agreement, a Change of Control occurs with respect to the Company, the vested percentage determined under Section 4 shall be 100% for all Participants who have completed the minimum vesting requirement of at least 5 Years of Service as of the date of the Change of Control. SECTION 17. LIMITATION ON PAYMENTS. (a) BASIC RULE. Any other provision of the Plan notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any payment or transfer any property to, or for the benefit of, the Participants (under this Plan or otherwise) that would be nondeductible by the Company by reason of section 280G of the Code or that would subject the Participants to the excise tax described in section 4999 of the Code. All calculations required by this section shall be performed by the Company's independent auditors selected by the Board of Directors prior to a Change of Control ("Auditors"), based on information supplied by the Company and the Participants and shall be binding on the Company and the Participants. All fees and expenses of the Auditors to determine such amounts shall be paid by the Company. (b) REDUCTIONS. If the amount of the aggregate payments or property transfers to the Participant must be reduced under this section, then the Participant shall direct in which order the payments or transfers are to be reduced, but no change in the timing of any payment or transfer shall be made without the Company's consent. As a result of uncertainty in the application of sections 280G and 4999 of the Code at the time of an initial determination by the Auditors hereunder, it is possible that a payment will have been made by the Company that should not have been made (an "Overpayment") or that an additional payment will not have been made by the Company that could have been made (an "Underpayment"). In the event that the Auditors, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against the Company or the Participants that the Auditors believe has a high probability of success, determine that an Overpayment has been made, such Overpayment shall be treated for all purposes as a loan to the Participant that he shall repay to the Company, together with interest at the applicable federal rate specified in section 7872(f)(2) of the Code; provided, however, that no amount shall be payable by the Participant to the Company if and to the extent that such payment would not reduce the amount that is nondeductible under section 280G of the Code or is subject to an excise tax under section 4999 of the Code. In the event that the Auditors determine that an Underpayment has occurred, such Underpayment shall promptly be paid or transferred by the Company to, or for the benefit of, the Participant, together with interest at the applicable federal rate specified in section 7872(f)(2) of the Code. SECTION 18. CHOICE OF LAW AND CLAIMS PROCEDURE; MISCELLANEOUS. (a) The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of the Plan shall be governed by ERISA and, to the extent they are not preempted, by the laws of the State of California (without regard to their choice-of-law provision). (b) In accordance with the regulations of the U.S. Secretary of Labor, the Committee shall 1. provide adequate notice in writing to any Participant, surviving spouse or Beneficiary whose claim for benefits under the Plan has been denied, setting forth the specific reasons for such denial and written in a manner calculated to be understood by such Participant, surviving spouse or Beneficiary, and 2. afford a reasonable opportunity to any Participant, surviving spouse or Beneficiary whose claim for benefits has been denied for a full and fair review by the Committee of the decision denying the claim. SECTION 19. MISCELLANEOUS (a) The interest in the benefits hereunder of a spouse of a Participant who has predeceased the Participant shall automatically pass to the Participant and shall not be transferable by such spouse in any manner, including but not limited to such spouse's will, nor shall such interest pass under the laws of intestate succession. (b) The Committee is authorized to make any payments directed by court order in any action in which the Plan or the Committee has been named as party. (c) The Company is aware that upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Board (which might then be composed of new members) or a stockholder of the Company, or of any successor corporation might then cause or attempt to cause the Company or such successor to refuse to comply with its obligations under the Plan and might cause or attempt to cause the Company to institute, or may institute, litigation seeking to deny Participants the benefits intended under the Plan. In these circumstances, the purpose of the Plan could be frustrated. Accordingly, if, following a Change of Control, it should appear to any Participant that the Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under the Plan or any agreement thereunder or, if the Company or any other person takes any action to declare the Plan void or unenforceable or institutes any litigation or other legal action designed to deny, diminish or to recover from any Participant the benefits intended to be provided hereunder, then the Company irrevocably authorizes such Participant to retain counsel of his or her choice at the expense of the Company to represent such Participant in connection with the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal action, whether by or against the Company or any director, officer, stockholder or other person affiliated with the Company or any successor thereto in any jurisdiction.

To record the adoption of the Amended and Restated Plan by the Committee, effective as of the date set forth above, the Company has caused its duly authorized officer to affix the corporate name hereto.

The expiration date determined pursuant to Subsection (A)(4) or (B)(4) above; or 1. The date 12 months after his or her death.

The balance of such Option(s) shall lapse when the Optionee dies. A. NO RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. An Optionee, or a transferee of an Optionee, shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by his or her Option until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate for such Shares. No adjustments shall be made, except as provided in Section IX. - 9 - A. MODIFICATION, EXTENSION AND ASSUMPTION OF OPTIONS.

The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of an Option shall, without the consent of the Optionee, impair his or her rights or increase his or her obligations under such Option. A. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF SHARES. Any Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be subject to such special forfeiture conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal and other transfer restrictions as the Committee may determine.

In the case of a Nonstatutory Option granted under the Plan to a Director, payment may be made in one or both of the forms described in Subsections (B) and (D) below. A. SURRENDER OF STOCK. To the extent that this Subsection (B) is applicable and to the extent that applicable law permits, payment may be made all or in part with Shares which have already been owned by the Optionee or his or her representative for more than six months and which are surrendered to the Company in good form for transfer. Such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date when the new Shares are purchased under the Plan. A. PROMISSORY NOTE. To the extent that this Subsection (C) is applicable, a portion of the Exercise Price of Shares issued under the Plan may be payable by a full-recourse - 10 - promissory note; provided that (i) the par value of such Shares must be paid in lawful money of the United States of America at the time when such Shares are purchased, (ii) the Shares are security for payment of the principal amount of the promissory note and interest thereon and (iii) the interest rate payable under the terms of the promissory note shall not be less than the minimum rate (if any) required to avoid the imputation of additional interest under the Code. Subject to the foregoing, the Committee (at its sole discretion) shall specify the term, interest rate, amortization requirements (if any) and other provisions of such note. A. EXERCISE/SALE. To the extent that this Subsection (D) is applicable, payment may be made by the delivery (on a form prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Company in payment of all or part of the Exercise Price and any withholding taxes. A. EXERCISE/PLEDGE. To the extent that this Subsection (E) is applicable, payment may be made by the delivery (on a form prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to pledge Shares to a securities broker or lender approved by the Company, as security for a loan, and to deliver all or part of the loan proceeds to the Company in payment of all or part of the Exercise Price and any withholding taxes. SECTION VIII. PAYMENT OF DIRECTOR'S FEES IN STOCK. A. ELECTION. A Director may elect to receive his or her director's fees from the Company in the form of Shares to be issued under the Plan. Such an election may be made with respect to: 1. All director's fees, including (without limitation) annual retainer fees, meeting fees and fees paid to committee chairpersons, but not including expense reimbursements and consulting fees; or 1. Annual retainer payments only. An election under this Section VIII shall be filed with the Company on the prescribed form. The election shall apply only to fees payable at least six months after such form has been received by the Company. The election may be amended or canceled by filing a new form with the Company, but the new form shall apply only to fees payable at least six months after it has been received by the Company. The number of Shares to be issued shall be determined by dividing the amount of the fee by the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date when such fee otherwise would be paid in cash. A. WITHHOLDING TAXES. The Director shall satisfy all of his or her federal, state or local withholding tax obligations (if any) by having the Company withhold a portion of the Shares that otherwise would be issued to him or her. Such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date when taxes otherwise would be withheld in cash. The - 11 - payment of taxes by assigning Shares to the Company shall be subject to any restrictions required by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. SECTION IX. ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES. A. GENERAL. In the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Stock, a declaration of a dividend payable in Shares, a declaration of a dividend payable in a form other than Shares in an amount that has a material effect on the value of Shares, a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of Shares, a recapitalization or a similar occurrence, the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments in one or more of (i) the number of Shares available for future grants under Section V, (ii) the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Option or (iii) the Exercise Price under each outstanding Option. A. MERGER; CONSOLIDATION. In the event that the Company is a party to a merger or consolidation, outstanding Options shall be subject to the agreement of merger or consolidation. Such agreement shall provide (i) for the assumption of outstanding Options by the surviving corporation or its parent, (ii) for their continuation by the Company, if the Company is a surviving corporation, (iii) for payment of a cash settlement equal to the difference between the amount to be paid for one Share under such agreement and the Exercise Price or (iv) for the acceleration of their exercisability followed by the cancellation of Options not exercised, in all cases other than clause (iii) without the Optionees' consent. (The Optionees' consent shall be required for a cash settlement.) Any cancellation shall not occur earlier than 30 days after such acceleration is effective and Optionees have been notified of such acceleration. In the case of Options that have been outstanding for less than 12 months, a cancellation need not be preceded by an acceleration. A. RESERVATION OF RIGHTS. Except as provided in this Section IX, an Optionee shall have no rights by reason of (i) any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, (ii) the payment of any dividend or (iii) any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class. Any issue by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or Exercise Price of Shares subject to an Option. The grant of an Option pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, to merge or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. - 12 - SECTION X. SECURITIES LAWS. Shares shall not be issued under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares complies with (or is exempt from) all applicable requirements of law, including (without limitation) the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws and regulations, and the regulations of any stock exchange on which the Company's securities may then be listed. SECTION XI. NO RIGHTS TO SERVICE. No provision of the Plan, nor any Option granted under the Plan, shall be construed to give any person any right to become, to be treated as, or to remain an Employee or Director of the Company, as the case may be. The Company and its Subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate any person's Service at any time and for any reason. SECTION XII. DURATION AND AMENDMENTS. A. TERM OF THE PLAN. The Plan, as amended and restated, is effective as of April 20, 1994, subject to stockholder approval. The Plan shall terminate automatically on March 31, 2000 and may be terminated on any earlier date pursuant to Subsection (B) below. A. RIGHT TO AMEND OR TERMINATE THE PLAN. The Committee may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time and for any reason; provided, however, that any amendment of the Plan which increases the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan (except as provided in Section IX), or which materially changes the class of persons who are eligible for the grant of ISOs, shall be subject to the approval of the Company's stockholders. Stockholder approval shall not be required for any other amendment of the Plan, except to the extent required by applicable law. A. EFFECT OF AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION. No Shares shall be issued under the Plan after the termination thereof, except upon exercise of an Option granted prior to such termination. The termination of the Plan, or any amendment thereof, shall not affect any Share previously issued or any Option previously granted under the Plan. SECTION XIII. EXECUTION. To record the amendment and restatement of the Plan by the Board of Directors on April 20, 1994, the Company has caused its authorized officer to execute the same.

Restated Effective January 1, 1994) ARTICLE 1 INTRODUCTION The Plan was most recently amended and restated, generally effective January 1, 1994, to read as set forth herein. The Plan was originally adopted effective April 1, 1989 as an amendment, restatement and continuation of the CPI Profit Sharing Plan sponsored by International Central Bank and Trust Corporation. The purpose of the Plan is to provide participating employees with retirement benefits by affording them the opportunity to elect to have a portion of their salary paid directly into the Plan on their behalf by the Company and the other Employers. This Plan is intended to qualify as a profit sharing plan under Section 401(a) of the Code and contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code. The Trust Agreement entered into in connection with this Plan shall continue in full force and effect pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Plan and is incorporated by reference and made part of this Plan. The Plan is subject to amendment or termination at any time pursuant to Article 14, including (without limitation) amendments to meet regulations and rules issued by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate or the Secretary of Labor. Certain capitalized terms used in the text of the Plan are defined in Article 2 in alphabetical order.

ARTICLE 4 DEFERRED SALARY CONTRIBUTIONS AND AFTER-TAX CONTRIBUTIONS 4.1 DEFERRED SALARY CONTRIBUTIONS (A) Subject to the limitations established by this Article and Article 5, each Participant who is not a Highly Compensated Employee may elect to have his Employer contribute from two percent (2%) to ten percent (10%) of the Participant's Compensation directly into the Plan instead of paying such amount to the Participant. Contributions made in this manner shall be called Deferred Salary Contributions. Subject to the limitations established by this Article and Article 5, each Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee may elect to have his or her Employer contribute from two percent (2%) to six percent (6%) of such Participant's Compensation directly into the Plan instead of paying such amount to the Participant. A Participant's Deferred Salary Contributions shall be credited to his Deferred Salary Account. (B) All Deferred Salary Contributions shall be forwarded by the Employer to the Trustee as soon as administratively practicable after the contributions have been withheld. In no event shall Deferred Salary Contributions be forwarded to the Trustee later than ninety (90) days from the date on which such amounts were withheld and would have otherwise been payable to the Participant as Compensation. (C) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Participant's Deferred Salary Contributions during any Plan Year (not including any Deferred Salary Contributions distributed to any Participant for the Plan Year ending with such calendar year pursuant to Section 12.1), together with any other elective deferrals (within the meaning of Section 402(g)(3) of the Code) under all plans, contracts or arrangements of the Affiliated Group, shall exceed $9,240 (or such larger amount as may be provided on account of cost-of-living adjustments pursuant to Sections 402(g)(5) and 415(d) of the Code.

(D) It shall be the responsibility of each Participant to coordinate his or her salary deferrals as needed to meet this limit in connection with any other plan or plans. The Company will not take account of deferrals made to any other plan and, except as required by law, no deferrals made under this Plan will be returned because the Participant's deferrals under another plan caused his total deferrals for a year to exceed the limit set forth in subsection (C), above. 4.2 DEFERRAL ELECTION Each Participant may deliver to the Administrator a Deferral Election in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Administrator, directing his Employer to reduce his Compensation within the limits set forth in Section 4.1. Such election shall become effective as of the date agreed upon between the Administrator and the Participant, provided that such date shall be subsequent to receipt of the Deferral Election by the Administrator. 4.3 SUSPENSION OF, OR CHANGE IN, DEFERRAL ELECTION (A) SUSPENSION. A Participant may elect to suspend all Deferred Salary Contributions at any time by giving notice to the Administrator in a manner prescribed for that purpose by the Administrator. Any such election shall be effective as soon as administratively practicable following the date such notice is received by the Administrator. By giving the Administrator such advance notice as may be prescribed by the Administrator, a Participant who has suspended all Deferred Salary Contributions may resume such contributions as of the first day of the calendar quarter next following receipt of such notice by the Administrator. (B) CHANGE OF DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE. A Participant may elect to change the amount of his Deferred Salary Contribution on any January 1, April 1, July 1 or October 1, provided the Participant gives such prior notice to the Administrator as may be required by the Administrator in accordance with procedures established by the Administrator. The new deferral amount shall become effective as of the January 1, April 1, July 1 or October 1 following the expiration of the notice period with respect to contributions made subsequent to that January 1, April 1, July 1 or October 1. 4.4 DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE LIMITATION Subject to the special rules of Section 4.5 and at such intervals as it shall deem proper, the Administrator shall review each Participant's Deferral Election in order to determine that the Deferred Salary Contributions with respect to all Participants satisfy one of the following tests: (A) The Average Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the Average Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or (B) The Average Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the Average Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 2, provided that the Average Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees does not exceed the Average Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees by more than 2 percentage points. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limit set forth in this subsection (B) shall be adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(m)-2 to avoid duplicate use of the limit for any Highly Compensated Employee. 4.5 SPECIAL RULES ON DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE LIMITATION (A) For purposes of this Article, the Actual Deferral Percentage for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have Deferred Salary Contributions allocated to his account under two or more plans or arrangements described in Section 401(k) of the Code that are maintained by the Employer or an affiliated Employer shall be determined as if all such Deferred Salary Contributions were made under a single arrangement. (B) For purposes of determining the Actual Deferral Percentage of an Employee who is a Highly Compensated Employee to the extent provided in Code Section 414(q)(6)(A), the Deferred Salary Contributions and Compensation of such Employee shall include the Deferred Salary Contributions and Compensation of Family Members; and such Family Members shall be disregarded in determining the Average Actual Deferral Percentage for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees. (C) The determination and treatment of the Deferred Salary Contributions and Actual Deferral Percentage of any Participant shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury. (D) In the event that this Plan is aggregated with one or more other plans in order to satisfy the requirements of Code Sections 401(a), 401(k) or 410(b), then all such aggregated plans, including the Plan, shall be treated as a single plan for all purposes under all such Code Sections (except for purposes of the average benefit percentage provisions in Code Section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii). 4.6 ADJUSTMENT OF DEFERRALS In the event the Administrator determines that one of the tests set forth in Section 4.4 is not satisfied at the time of its review hereunder, it may require that one or more Participants adjust their Deferral Election for the next and subsequent payroll periods, in order that the test set forth in Section 4.4(A) or (B) is thereafter satisfied. In addition, Article 12 shall apply if, at the end of the Plan Year, a test in Section 4.4(A) or (B) above is not satisfied. 4.7 AFTER-TAX CONTRIBUTIONS (A) Subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 5.3 and 5.5, each Participant who is not a Highly Compensated Employee may contribute from two percent (2%) to ten percent (10%) of the Participant's Compensation to the Plan as After-Tax Contributions. A Participant's After-Tax Contributions shall be credited to his After-Tax Contributions Account. Subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 5.3 and 5.5, each Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee may contribute from two percent (2%) to six percent (6%) of such Participant's Compensation to the Plan as After-Tax Contributions. (B) All After-Tax Contributions shall be forwarded by the Employer to the Trustee as soon as administratively practicable but in no even later than ninety (90) days from the date on which such amounts were withheld and would have otherwise been payable to the Participant as Compensation. 4.8 AFTER-TAX CONTRIBUTION ELECTION Each Participant may make an After-Tax Contribution Election in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Administrator directing his Employer to withhold After-Tax Contributions from the Participant's Compensation within the limits set forth in Section 4.7(A). Such election shall become effective as of a date agreed upon between the Administrator and the Participant, provided that such date shall be subsequent to the receipt of the election by the Administrator. 4.9 SUSPENSION OF, OR CHANGE IN, AFTER-TAX CONTRIBUTIONS (A) A Participant may elect to suspend After-Tax Contributions at any time by giving notice to the Administrator in accordance with the procedures established for that purpose by the Administrator.

By giving the Administrator such advance notice as the Administrator may require, a Participant who has suspended all After-Tax Contributions may resume After-Tax Contributions as of the first day of the calendar quarter next following receipt of such notice by the Administrator. (B) A Participant may elect to change the amount of his After-Tax Contributions on any January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1, provided the Participant gives such advance notice as the Administrator may require in accordance with procedures established by the Administrator. The new contribution amount shall become effective as of the January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1 following the expiration of the notice period with respect to contributions made subsequent to that January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1. ARTICLE 5 EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS 5.1 EMPLOYER DISCRETIONARY CONTRIBUTIONS (A) Employer Discretionary Contributions, if any, for each Plan Year shall be made in such amounts (or under such formula) as each Employer shall determine annually in its discretion; provided, however, that such Employer Discretionary Contributions shall not be made for any Plan Year in amounts which cannot be allocated to any Participant's Account by reason of the limitation described in Sections 5.5 and 5.6. (B) All Employer Discretionary Contributions shall be invested in accordance with the provisions of Article 6 and shall be made in cash or FHC Stock or a combination of cash and FHC Stock.

If Employer Discretionary Contributions are made in FHC Stock, FHC Stock shall be valued at the last-transaction price on the New York Stock Exchange (or such other national securities exchange on which the Company's stock is primarily trading) and reported by The Wall Street Journal with respect to the date as of which Employer Discretionary Contributions are allocated to Employer Accounts under this Section. If the Valuation Date falls on other than a trading day, FHC Stock shall be valued as of the most recent trading day preceding the Valuation Date. (D) Employer Discretionary Contributions made pursuant to this Section shall be allocated in the manner designated by the Employer at the time such contribution is made; provided, however, that such manner of allocation does not discriminate in favor of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees. It is the intention of the Company and the other Employers that Employer Discretionary Contributions be allocated either (i) to all Participants of the Employer in the proportion that the Compensation of each such Participant for the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of all of such Participants for such Plan Year, or (ii) as Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions to be allocated only to certain Nonhighly Compensated Employees as designated by the Employer for the purpose of ensuring that the Plan satisfies the deferral percentage and contribution percentage limitations described in Sections 4.4 and 5.3. If no allocation method is specified at the time of contribution, Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Qualified Matching Contributions will be allocated to Nonhighly Compensated Employees based upon Compensation in accordance with Section 5.1(D)(i) above. 5.2 EMPLOYER MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS (A) For each calendar month, each Employer may make an Employer Matching Contribution to the Plan. The amount of an Employer's Matching Contribution for a calendar month shall be equal to: (1) The Employer's Matching Rate multiplied by the aggregate of the Deferred Salary Contributions and/or After-Tax Contributions (as limited by Section 5.3) made for such month by all Participants employed by the Employer during such month; less (2) Any forfeiture from Employer Accounts attributable to former Employees of the Employer. Monthly Deferred Salary Contributions and/or After-Tax Contributions on behalf of each Participant in excess of 6% of his or her Compensation for such month shall be disregarded. For purposes of this Paragraph (A) of this Section 5.2, the 'Matching Rate' means a percentage from 0% to 100%, as determined by each Employer for a Plan Year or for the balance of a Plan Year. An Employer's Matching Rate shall remain in effect until changed by the Employer to another permissible rate. 5.3 PERCENTAGE LIMITATION ON EMPLOYER MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS AND AFTER-TAX CONTRIBUTIONS At such intervals as it shall deem proper, the Administrator shall review the Employer Matching Contributions made for Participants in order to determine that such Employer Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions, with respect to all Participants, satisfy one of the following tests: (A) The Average Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the Average Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or (B) The Average Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the Average Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 2, provided that the Average Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees does not exceed the Average Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees by more than 2 percentage points. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limit set forth in this subsection (B) shall be adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(m)-2 to avoid duplicate use of the limit for any Highly Compensated Employee. 5.4 SPECIAL RULES FOR CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE LIMIT TESTING (A) For purposes of this Article, the Contribution Percentage for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to make After-Tax Contributions or to receive Employer Matching Contributions allocated to his Account under two or more plans described in Section 401(a) of the Code that are maintained by the Employer shall be determined as if all such After-Tax Contributions and Employer Matching Contributions were made under a single plan. (B) In the event that this Plan satisfies the requirements of Section 410(b) of the Code only if aggregated with one or more other plans, or if one or more other plans satisfy the requirements of Section 410(b) of the Code only if aggregated with this Plan, then this Article shall be applied by determining the Contribution Percentages of Participants as if all such plans were a single plan. (C) For purposes of determining the Contribution Percentage of a Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee, After-Tax Contributions, Employer Matching Contributions and Compensation of such Participant shall include the After-Tax Contributions, Employer Matching Contribution and Compensation of Family Members, and such Family Members shall be disregarded in determining the Contribution Percentage for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees. (D) The determination and treatment of the Contribution Percentage of any Participant shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury. 5.5 OVERALL LIMITATION ON ANNUAL ADDITIONS Any other provision of this Plan notwithstanding, in no event shall the Annual Additions allocated to a Participant for any Limitation Year exceed the lesser of: (A) Twenty-five percent (25%) of the Participant's Total Compensation for the Limitation Year; or (B) Thirty thousand dollars ($30,000) (or, if greater, 1/4 of the amount in effect under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code for such Limitation Year.) The compensation limitation referred to in Paragraph (A) shall not apply to: (1) Any contribution for medical benefits (within the meaning of Section (A)(f)(2) of the Code) after separation from service which is otherwise treated as an Annual Addition, or (2) Any amount otherwise treated as an Annual Addition under Section 415(l)(1) of the Code. If a Participant's Annual Additions would exceed the foregoing limitation, then such Annual Additions shall be reduced in the order in which they are listed in Section 5.7(a). If a Participant's Annual Additions would exceed the foregoing limitation as a result of a reasonable error in estimating a Participant's Total Compensation or under other limited facts and circumstances which the Commissioner of Internal Revenue finds justifies this method of allocation, the excess amount shall be withheld or taken from a Participant's Account and held in a suspense account to be used to reduce future contributions for the Participant (or, if the Participant ceases to be an Employee, for remaining active Participants) in succeeding Limitation Years, as necessary. 5.6 SPECIAL RULES (A) PARTICIPATION IN OTHER DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN. The limitation of Section 5.5 and 5.6 with respect to any Participant who at any time has participated in any other qualified defined contribution plan (as defined in Section 3(34) of ERISA and Section 414(i) of the Code) maintained by the Company shall apply as if the total contributions allocated under all such defined contribution plans in which the Participant has participated were allocated under one plan. (B) PARTICIPATION IN THIS PLAN AND A DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN. If a Participant has at any time been a participant in a qualified defined benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA and Section 414(j) of the Code) and that is not part of a floor-offset arrangement (as defined in Section 414(k) of the Code) maintained by the Company, the sum of the Participant's Defined Benefit Plan Fraction and Defined Contribution Plan Fraction for any year shall not exceed one (1). In the event said sum of the Defined Benefit Plan Fraction and the Defined Contribution Plan Fraction would otherwise exceed 1.0 for any Plan Year, the projected annual retirement income benefit under the Company-sponsored defined benefit plan shall be limited, to the extent necessary, to reduce said Defined Benefit Plan Fraction so that the sum of the two fractions hereunder does not exceed the foregoing 1.0 limitation. For purposes of the foregoing paragraph only: (1) The "Defined Benefit Plan Fraction" for any Limitation Year is a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant's projected annual retirement income benefit under all defined benefit plans, maintained by the Company determined as of the end of the Limitation Year, and the denominator of which is the lesser of: (a) The product of 1.25 multiplied by the dollar limitation in effect under Code Section 415(b)(1)(A) for the Limitation Year; or (b) The product of 1.4 multiplied by one hundred percent (100%) of the Participant's average Total Compensation for the three (3) consecutive calendar years during which his Total Compensation was the highest. (2) The "Defined Contribution Plan Fraction" for any Limitation Year is a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the Annual Additions to the accounts of the Participant in all defined contribution plans maintained by the Company (as of the end of the Limitation Year) for the Limitation Year and all preceding Limitation Years, and the denominator of which is the sum of the lesser of the following amounts, determined for such Limitation Year and for each prior Limitation Year of service with the Company: (a) The product of 1.25 multiplied by $30,000 (as adjusted pursuant to Section 415(d)(1)(B)); or (b) The product of 1.4 multiplied by twenty-five percent (25%) of the Participant's Total Compensation for such Limitation Year. (C) ADJUSTMENT OF LIMITATION FOR YEARS OF SERVICE OR PARTICIPATION (1) In the case of a Participant who has completed less than ten years of participation in any Company-sponsored defined benefit plans, the limitation set forth in Section 5.6(B)(1)(a) shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant's number of years (or part thereof) of participation in Company-sponsored defined benefit plans and the denominator of which is ten. (2) If a Participant has completed less than ten years of service with the Company, the limitation set forth in Section 5.6(B)(1)(b) shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant's number of years of service (or part thereof) and the denominator of which is ten. 5.7 DEFINITIONS For purposes of Sections 5.5 and 5.6, the following definitions shall apply: (A) "Annual Addition" shall mean the amount allocated to a Participant's Account during the Limitation Year that constitutes: (1) Deferred Salary Contributions, (2) After-Tax Contributions, (3) Employer Contributions, (4) voluntary contributions (if any) (5) forfeitures, and (6) amounts described in Section 415(l)(1) and 419A(d)(2) of the Code. Rollover Contributions shall not be included in Annual Additions. (B) "Company" shall include any other employer or employers (whether or not incorporated) which together with the Employers adopting the Plan are under common control as members of the same controlled group of corporations or affiliated service group as determined under Sections 414(b), (c) or (m) of the Code, as modified by Section 415(h), but only for the period during which such relationship exits. (C) "Limitation Year" shall mean the Plan Year. 5.8 REVERSION OF EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS Except as provided in the following paragraphs (A), (B), and (C), the assets of the Plan shall never inure to the benefit of any Employer, and shall be held for the exclusive purposes of providing benefits to Participants and/or their Beneficiaries, and for defraying the expenses of administering the Plan. (A) In the case of an Employer Contribution which is made by virtue of a mistake of fact, such contribution shall be returned to the Employer within one (1) year after the payment of the contribution. (B) Employer Contributions are conditioned upon the deductibility of the contribution under Section 404 of the Code, or any successor provision thereto and to the extent the deduction of such Employer Contribution is disallowed such Employer Contribution (to the extent disallowed), shall be returned to the Employer within one (1) year after such disallowance of the deduction. 5.9 TIMING OF EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS The Employer shall forward Employer Discretionary Contributions and Employer Matching Contributions to the Trustee for investment in the Trust Fund at such times as the Employer shall determine, but not later than the time prescribed by law for filing the Employer's Federal income tax return for the Plan Year plus extensions. ARTICLE 6 PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS 6.1 SEPARATE ACCOUNTS The Administrator shall maintain or cause to be maintained separate Accounts for each Participant which shall consist of his Deferred Salary Account, After-Tax Contributions Account, Rollover Account and Employer Account. To the extent necessary or appropriate, the Administrator may also maintain, or cause to be maintained, on behalf of each Participant, a separate accounting as to Employer Discretionary Contributions and Employer Matching Contributions contributed to the Employer Account, the earnings and losses thereon and expenses attributable thereto. 6.2 VALUATION OF FUNDS There shall be determined as of each Valuation Date, but prior to crediting of contributions made by each Employer and Employee since the preceding Valuation Date, the fair market value of all assets of each of the Investment Funds maintained pursuant to Article 7. The fair market value of FHC Stock shall be the last transaction price on the New York Stock Exchange and reported by The Wall Street Journal with respect to the Valuation Date. If the Valuation Date falls on other than a trading day, FHC Stock shall be valued as of the most recent trading day preceding the Valuation Date. Such valuation shall be determined in accordance with the principles of Section 3(26) of ERISA and shall give effect to brokerage fees, transfer taxes, contributions, earnings, gains and losses, forfeitures, expenses, disbursements, and all other transactions during the valuation period since the preceding Valuation Date. In making such determinations and in crediting net appreciation or depreciation to the Participant's Accounts, the Administrator may employ such accounting methods as the Administrator may deem appropriate in order to fairly reflect the fair market values of the Investment Funds and each Participant's Account. For this purpose the Administrator may rely upon information provided by the Trustee, the investment manager, or other persons believed by the Administrator to be competent. 6.3 INVESTMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS A Participant shall make an investment election which shall cover his Deferred Salary Contributions, After-Tax Contributions, Rollover Contributions and Employer Contributions. The investment election shall be made in such minimum percentages as may be established by the Company from time to time to be invested in one or more of the Investment Funds available under the Plan. Any investment election made by a Participant shall be a continuing direction until changed in accordance with procedures established by the Company. Each Participant is solely responsible for the selection of his investment options. The Trustee, the Administrator, the Employer and the officers, supervisors and other employees of the Employer are not empowered to advise a Participant as to the manner in which his Account shall be invested. The fact that an Investment Fund is available to a Participant for investment under the Plan shall not be construed as a recommendation for investment in that Investment Fund. In the event no election is made by a Participant, amounts subject to his election will be invested by the Administrator in a money market fund or such other offered fund which shall provide the most safety for purposes of the protection of principal. 6.4 CHANGE OF INVESTMENT ELECTION A Participant may change his investment directions as to his Account Balances among and between the Investment Funds offered under the Plan in accordance with procedures established by the Company from time to time. 6.5 RESTRICTIONS ON INVESTMENT ELECTIONS OF CERTAIN PARTICIPANTS Any investment elections relating to FHC Stock that are made by Participants who are officers, directors or ten percent shareholders of the Company for purposes of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 shall be subject to such restrictions as the Company may establish to enable such Participants and the Plan to comply with, or qualify for an exemption from, the restrictions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 6.6 STATEMENTS At least once annually the Administrator shall cause to be furnished to each Participant a statement showing the status of his Accounts as of the most recent Valuation Date and containing such other information as the Administrator shall determine. ARTICLE 7 INVESTMENT OF FUNDS 7.1 TRUST AGREEMENT (A) The Company shall enter into a Trust Agreement which shall be a part of the Plan. All contributions made pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be paid into the Investment Funds maintained pursuant to the Plan and the Trust Agreement. All such payments and increments thereon shall be held and disbursed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and Trust Agreement, as each shall be applicable under the circumstances. No person shall have any interest in, or right to, any part of the funds so held in the Trust Fund, except as expressly provided in the Plan or Trust Agreement. (B) The Trustee shall have the exclusive authority and discretion to invest, manage and control the assets of the Plan, except to the extent that Participants have been given authority to direct the investment of their Accounts pursuant to Article 6 and Sections 15.11 and 15.12 and to the extent the Company has allocated the authority to manage Plan assets to one or more investment managers (within the meaning of Section 3(38) of ERISA). Any investment manager appointed by the Company shall have the exclusive authority to manage, including the power to direct the acquisition and disposition of, the Plan assets assigned to it by the Company. The Trustee may invest funds received in a temporary investment fund, or any other fund selected by the Trustee, until such time as he is directed to invest such funds by the investment manager(s), if any. (C) From time to time, the Company shall estimate the Plan benefits and administrative expenses to be paid out of the Trust Fund during the period for which the estimate is made and shall estimate the contributions to be made to the Plan during such period by Participants and by participating Employers. The Company shall inform the Trustee of the estimated cash needs of the Plan for each period with respect to which such estimates are made. Such estimates shall be made on an annual, quarterly, monthly or other basis, as the Company shall determine. 7.2 TRUST FUND The Trust Fund shall be comprised of one or more Investment Funds, as determined from time to time by the Company, including (without limitation), the FHC Stock Fund. Such Investment Funds may be evidenced by appropriate bookkeeping entries or by a physical segregation of assets. At its discretion, and in a nondiscriminatory manner, the Company may change or eliminate one or more of the Investment Funds offered under the Plan. 7.3 INDEPENDENT QUALIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT The Company shall engage an independent qualified public accountant to conduct such examinations and to render such opinions as may be required by Section 103(a)(3) of ERISA. The Company in its discretion may remove and discharge the person so engaged, but in such case it shall first appoint a successor independent qualified public accountant to perform such examinations and render such opinions. ARTICLE 8 BENEFIT ELECTION AND BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION PROCEDURES 8.1 ELECTIONS AS TO FORM OF DISTRIBUTION (A) The Participant's election of an optional form of distribution under Section 9.2 shall be made on the prescribed form and filed with the Administrator. Such election may be made only during an election period consisting of the 90 consecutive days ending on the Participant's Annuity Starting Date. A Participant may revoke any election of an optional form of distribution (without the consent of the Administrator) at any time prior to the end of such election period. If the Participant, having revoked a prior election, does not make another election within such election period, then his or her Account Balance shall be distributed in the form specified in Section 9.1. (B) Any election involving a waiver of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity form of benefit shall not take effect unless the Participant's Spouse consents in writing to the election during such election period. The Spouse's consent shall (i) acknowledge the effect of the Participant's election, (ii) designate a form of benefits or a Beneficiary which may not be changed without spousal consent (or the consent of the Spouse must expressly permit designations by the Participant without further requirement of consent by the Spouse), and (iii) shall be witnessed by a notary public or, if permitted by the Company, by a representative of the Plan. Any consent under this Section shall be valid only with respect to the Spouse who signs the consent. An election made by a Participant and consented to by the Spouse may be revoked by the Participant, in writing, without the consent of the Spouse, anytime prior to the Participant's Annuity Starting Date. Any new election must comply with the requirements of this Section. The Spouse's consent shall not be required if the Participant (a) establishes to the Company's satisfaction that the Spouse's consent cannot be obtained because the Spouse cannot be located or because of other reasons deemed acceptable under applicable regulations and (b) agrees in writing that if the Company is compelled by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to pay all or any portion of the Participant's Account Balance to or on behalf of such Spouse, the Participant will indemnify the Company by paying to the Company, upon written demand, an amount equal to such payment, together with reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. 8.2 INFORMATION ON FORM OF DISTRIBUTION (A) NOTICE OF DISTRIBUTION. The Administrator shall provide each Participant eligible to receive benefits under the Plan a general notice of distribution no less than thirty (30) and no more than ninety (90) days before the Participant's Annuity Starting Date. The notice must be in writing and contain an explanation of the eligibility requirements for, the material features of, and sufficient additional information to explain the relative values of, the optional forms of benefit available under the Plan. If the Participant is married at the time he receives the general notice, the notice shall also include a description in non-technical language of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, the circumstances in which it will be provided unless a contrary election is made, the availability of an election not to receive benefits in the form of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, the ability to revoke the election and the financial effect of an election (or revocation of an election) not to receive benefits in the form of the Joint and Survivor Annuity and the rights of the Participant's Spouse with respect to the Joint and Survivor Annuity. (B) ELECTION OF OPTIONAL BENEFIT FORM. Upon receipt of the general notice of distribution, a Participant may elect to receive his benefits in an optional form. The election shall be made only during an election period consisting of the 90 consecutive days ending on the Participant's Annuity Starting Date, or, if the Participant makes a timely request for additional information, at least sixty (60) days following the date such specific information is furnished to the Participant. Benefit payments shall be delayed if necessary to provide the full election period. Any election made under this paragraph may be revoked in writing during the election period, and after the election has been revoked, another election may be made during the election period. 8.3 DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY FOR DEATH BENEFIT (A) Each Participant may, at or after the time he becomes a Participant, designate one or more persons as a Beneficiary upon death. If more than one Beneficiary is named, the Participant may specify the sequence and/or proportion in which payments shall be made to each Beneficiary. The designation shall be made on the form and in a manner prescribed by the Administrator and shall become effective when filed with the Administrator. A Participant may, from time to time, change his Beneficiary by filing a new designation form with the Administrator. Any designation or change in designation shall be effective only if the Participant designates his current Spouse as the Beneficiary, or, if the Participant designates someone other than the Spouse, such Spouse consents in writing to the designation in a manner consistent with the spousal consent rules described in Section 8.1. Prior to the death of the Participant, no designated Beneficiary shall acquire any interest in any Participant's Account Balance and no designation shall be effective unless the Administrator receives such designation before the Participant's death. (B) Should the Participant designate a person other than (or in addition to) his Spouse as Beneficiary and not obtain the Spouse's consent to such designation, then any benefits payable under the Plan upon the Participant's death shall be paid to the Surviving Spouse unless the Surviving Spouse then consents to such other or additional designation in a manner consistent with Section 8.1. (C) Should the Participant die without having any effectively- designated surviving Beneficiary and if there is no surviving Spouse, then the Beneficiary shall be the Participant's then living children, if any, in equal shares. If the Participant has neither Spouse nor children living at the time payment is to be made, then the estate of the Participant shall be the Beneficiary. (D) If there is doubt as to the right of any Beneficiary to receive any amount, the Trustee, on instructions of the Administrator, may retain such amount until the rights thereto are determined, or it may pay such amount into any court of appropriate jurisdiction, in either of which events neither the Plan, Employer, Administrator or Trustee shall be under any other liability to any person in respect of such amount. (E) The death of any individual Beneficiary prior to the death of the Participant shall void the designation as to such Beneficiary, but in the event of the death of any Beneficiary, subsequent to the death of the Participant, the right to receive amounts included in the designation shall (unless the Participant shall otherwise have instructed the Administrator in writing) pass under such Beneficiary's will, or by the laws of descent and distribution applicable to such Beneficiary. (F) The marriage of a Participant shall void the designation of a Benefi- ciary, and any death benefits shall be subject to distribution in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6. If the Participant shall again become an unmarried Participant, through divorce or death of a Spouse, the Participant shall again be entitled to make a Beneficiary designation pursuant to this Section. 8.4 INFORMATION ON DEATH BENEFITS The Administrator shall provide to each Married Participant a written expla- nation of the Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity described in Section 9.6 comparable to the information on distribution options described in Section 8.2. Such explanation shall be provided within whichever of the following periods ends last: (A) The three-year period beginning with the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age 32; (B) The three-year period beginning with the first day of the first Plan Year for which the individual is a Participant; or (C) In the case of a Participant who ceases to be an Employee before attaining age 35, the two-year period beginning one year before the Participant ceases to be an Employee and ending one year after the Participant ceases to be an Employee provided, however, that if the individual again becomes an Employee, the explanation shall be provided in accordance with subsection (A) or (B), above. ARTICLE 9 DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS 9.1 TIME OF DISTRIBUTION: GENERAL RULE Subject to Sections 9.2 and 9.3, a Participant's vested Account Balance shall be distributed to him or her on or about the date that he or she has elected. Within the 60-day period commencing 90 days before the Annuity Starting Date, the Company shall provide to each Participant the written explanation of his or her distribution options (including his or her right to defer receipt of the distribution) described in Article 8. The distribution election shall be made in writing on the prescribed form, which shall be signed by the Participant and filed with the Company after he or she has received such explanation. Where applicable, the distribution election form shall include the written consent of the Participant to the distribution of his or her Plan Benefit before he or she attains age 65. 9.2 EARLIEST TIME OF DISTRIBUTION Except as required by Section 9.3, a Participant's vested Account Balance shall not be distributed to him or her prior to the later of: (A) The date when the Participant ceases to be an Employee; or (B) The date when the Company receives a completed distribution election form (as described in Section 9.1). 9.3 LATEST TIME OF DISTRIBUTION If a Participant's Severance From Service Date occurs prior to his Normal Retirement Date, he may elect to receive his vested Account Balance at any time following his Severance From Service Date but no later than sixty days following his attainment of the Normal Retirement Age under the Plan. If an Employee continues to provides services for an Employer beyond Normal Retirement Age, he may elect to defer the receipt of his vested Account Balance beyond his Normal Retirement Date, but in no event shall such a Participant's vested Account Balance be distributed to him or her after the April 1 next following the close of the calendar year in which the Participant attains age 70 (whether or not the Participant ceased to be an Employee). If a Participant's vested Account Balance is (or at the time of any prior distribution was) greater than $3,500, but such Participant (and the Spouse if the Participant is a Married Participant) fails to consent to a distribution, the Participant's Account Balance shall be retained in the Plan until distributed pursuant to this Article no later than sixty (60) days following the Participant's attainment of his Normal Retirement Age under the Plan. If the Participant fails to file a timely distribution election form, Article 15.5 (relating to unlocated Plan Participants) may apply. 9.4 NORMAL FORM OF BENEFIT Subject to Article 8 and Section 9.4, and unless a Participant has elected an alternate method of distribution pursuant to Section 9.2, distributions of a Participant's vested Account Balance shall be made in the form of an annuity to be purchased from an insurance company in accordance with specifications contained in the Participant's retirement or distribution request. In the case of a Married Participant the annuity shall be in the form of a fifty percent (50%) Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. The amount used to purchase such annuity shall be the Participant's vested Account Balance as of the most recent practicable Valuation Date preceding his Annuity Starting Date. 9.5 OPTIONAL FORMS OF BENEFIT In lieu of the method of payment described in Section 9.1, a Participant may (subject to the election procedures described in Article 8) elect, by written notice delivered to the Administrator and signed by the Participant prior to the date on which benefit payments would commence, to have his vested Account Balance distributed in one of the optional forms described in this Section. (A) Lump Sum Option: The Participant's vested Account Balance shall be determined as of the most recent practicable Valuation Date preceding the date the Participant's distribution is to be made in the form of a single lump sum in cash. (B) Installment Option: The Participant's vested Account Balance shall be distributed to the Participant in cash payments in quarterly, semiannual or annual installments of substantially nonincreasing designated amounts over a period of years certain. If a Participant elects the installment option, during the installment period, the remaining Account Balance shall be credited with a share of gains, losses, income and expenses of the Trust Fund in accordance with Articles 6 and 7, and the investment election procedure described in Section 6.3 shall remain available to Participants receiving installment distributions. 9.6 QUALIFIED PRE-RETIREMENT SURVIVOR ANNUITY If a Participant dies prior to the commencement of payment of benefits under the Plan, the Surviving Spouse shall receive a survivor annuity for the life of the Surviving Spouse that can be purchased with the Participant's Account Balance unless the Participant waives the Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity, with spousal consent. The Surviving Spouse may elect to receive a single lump sum payment equal to the Participant's Account Balance in lieu of the survivor annuity. A Participant may waive the Qualified Pre- Retirement Survivor Annuity with spousal consent on or after the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age 35. A Participant may waive the Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity prior to age 35, with spousal consent, provided that the Participant has received the information set forth in Section 8.4 prior to his waiver, and provided further that such waiver shall become invalid upon the beginning of the Plan Year in which the Participant's 35th birthday occurs. If there is no new waiver after such date, the Participant's Surviving Spouse must receive the Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity upon the Participant's death. Any Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity payable hereunder shall be provided by purchasing an annuity from a duly licensed insurance company. Upon purchase of such annuity in accordance with the terms of the Plan and transfer to the Participant or his Surviving Spouse, the Plan and the Trust Fund shall be discharged of all liability for benefits payable under the Plan, and the Participant and/or Surviving Spouse shall look solely to the insurance company for the payment of benefits. Except as provided in Section 9.7, the distribution of a Participant's vested Account Balance to his or her Surviving Spouse pursuant to this Section 9.6 may be made prior to the date that the Participant attained or would have attained his or her Normal Retirement Age only if such Surviving Spouse consents to such distribution in writing not more than 90 days before the Annuity Starting Date. 9.7 SMALL BENEFITS: IMMEDIATE LUMP SUM If a Participant's vested Account Balance (determined as of the Valuation Date coincident with or next following the date of termination of employment) is not greater than $3,500, and such vested Account Balance was not greater than $3,500 at the time of any prior distribution, then it will be paid to the Participant in a single lump sum in cash as soon as administratively practicable. In the event that a Participant who receives a distribution pursuant to this subsection, which is less than one hundred percent (100%) of the value of his Account Balance again becomes an Employee prior to incurring five (5) consecutive One-Year Periods of Severance, as described in Section 10.3, any forfeited amount shall be restored, as provided in Section 10.3. 9.8 INVESTMENT OF ACCOUNT BALANCE OF TERMINATED PARTICIPANT In the event a Participant's employment with the Employer is terminated and the Participant elects to leave his Account Balance in the Plan, such Account Balance shall continue to be invested pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. In the event any investment alternative ceases to be offered as an investment alternative under the Plan, the portion of the Participant's Account Balance invested in such discontinued investment fund shall be liquidated and reinvested in a money market fund or such other offered fund which shall provide the most safety for purposes of the protection of principal. 9.9 REQUIRED DISTRIBUTIONS In the event that a Participant dies after distribution of his or her Plan benefit has begun, then his or her remaining benefit shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under the distribution method in use at his or her death. In the event that a Participant dies before any distribution of his or her Plan benefit has begun, then distribution of any death benefit under the Plan must be made (A) to a Beneficiary who is not the Participant's Surviving Spouse, over the Beneficiary's life or life expectancy, beginning not later than one year after the Participant's death; (B) to the Participant's Surviving Spouse, over the Surviving Spouse's life or life expectancy, beginning not later than the later of one year after the Participant's death or the date that the Participant attained or would have attained age 70; or (C) in all other cases, within five years after the Participant's death. All distributions under the Plan shall be made in accordance with the Income Tax Regulations under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code, including Income Tax Regulations Section 1.401(a)(9)-2 or its successor. Such regulations are incorporated in the Plan by reference and shall override any inconsistent provisions of the Plan. 9.10 DIRECT ROLLOVERS (i) THE DIRECT ROLLOVER OPTION. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a Distributee's election under this Section 9.10, effective January 1, 1993, a Distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Administrator, to have any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee in a Direct Rollover. (ii) DEFINITION OF ELIGIBLE ROLLOVER DISTRIBUTION. An Eligible Rollover Distribution is any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Distributee, except that an Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include: any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee's designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of 10 years or more; any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code; and the portion of any distribution that is not includable in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer securities). (iii) DEFINITION OF ELIGIBLE RETIREMENT PLAN. An Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of the Code, or a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code, that accepts the Distributee's Eligible Rollover Distribution. However, in the case of an Eligible Rollover Distribution to the surviving spouse, an Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity. (iv) DEFINITION OF DISTRIBUTEE. A Distributee includes an Employee or former Employee. In addition, the Employee's or former Employee's surviving spouse or former spouse who is the Alternate Payee under a QDRO are Distributees with regard to the interest of the spouse or former spouse. (v) DEFINITION OF DIRECT ROLLOVER. A Direct Rollover is a payment by the Plan to the Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee. ARTICLE 10 VESTING, RETIREMENT, AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT 10.1 VESTING IN DEFERRED SALARY, AFTER-TAX AND ROLLOVER CONTRIBUTIONS A Participant shall at all times have a one hundred percent (100%) vested and nonforfeitable interest in the value of his Deferred Salary Account, After-Tax Contributions Account and Rollover Account, if any. 10.2 VESTING IN EMPLOYER ACCOUNT (A) A Participant shall at all times have a one hundred percent (100%) vested and nonforfeitable interest in the value of his Employer Contributions (and earnings thereon) made prior to the Effective Date. (B) A Participant shall have a one hundred percent (100%) vested and nonforfeitable interest in the value of all funds credited to his Employer Account at his Normal Retirement Age or if the Participant's employment is terminated due to death, becoming Disabled or retirement on a Normal, Early or Postponed Retirement Date. (C) A Participant whose employment is terminated prior to his Retirement Date (and for any reason other than death, becoming Disabled or termination on an Early, Normal or Postponed Retirement Date) shall have a vested and nonforfeitable right to any Employer Contributions (and earnings thereon) in his Employer Account in accordance with the following schedule: YEARS OF SERVICE PERCENTAGE VESTED ---------------- ----------------- less than 1 0% 1 but less than 2 33-1/3% 2 but less than 3 66-2/3% 3 or more 100% For all new Participants of the Plan whose employment commences on or after January 1, 1995, a Participant shall have a vested and nonforfeitable right to any Employer Contributions (and earnings thereon) in his Employer Account in accordance with the following schedule: YEARS OF SERVICE PERCENTAGE VESTED ---------------- ----------------- less than 1 0% 1 but less than 2 20% 2 but less than 3 40% 3 but less than 4 60% 4 but less than 5 80% 5 or more 100% 10.3 VESTING AFTER PRIOR DISTRIBUTIONS Section 10.2 shall be applied as set forth in this Section 10.3 in the case of any Participant who received one or more prior withdrawals or distributions from his Employer Account, who thereafter has not incurred five (5) consecutive One-Year Periods of Severance and who is not yet 100% vested in the Employer Account. The vested portion of such Participant's Employer Account shall be determined in two steps. First, the Participant's vested percentage under Section 10.2 shall be applied to the sum of (a) the value of the Employer Account plus (b) the aggregate amount of the Participant's prior withdrawals or distributions from such Account. Then, the aggregate amount of the Participant's prior withdrawals or distributions from such Account shall be subtracted. 10.4 FORFEITURES (A) If a Participant's employment is terminated, any portion of his Account Balance in which the Participant does not have a nonforfeitable interest shall be provisionally forfeited as of his Severance From Service Date. (B) If a Participant who has had a provisional forfeiture shall again become an Employee prior to incurring five (5) consecutive One-Year Periods of Severance, the Employer shall reinstate (as of the Participant's Reemployment Commencement Date) the dollar amount of his Account Balance forfeited, unadjusted for any gains or losses which occurred during said Periods of Severance. If such Participant received a distribution upon termination, reinstatement of the prior forfeited amount will be provided automatically without requiring repayment of the amount of any prior distribution. Thereafter, Section 10.3 may be applicable to the determination of the vested portion of the Participant's Employer Account. (C) If the Participant is not rehired before incurring five (5) consecutive One-Year Periods of Severance, the amount of his provisional forfeiture shall be forfeited permanently. (D) Any provisional forfeitures resulting from the operation of this Section shall be held until the last business day of the Plan Year and shall be used first to reinstate prior forfeitures pursuant to paragraph (B). Any amounts remaining after such reinstatement shall be used, as of the last business day of the Plan Year, to reduce Employer Contributions which are due or may become due under the Plan. To the extent the available forfeitures are insufficient to fully reinstate Participants' previously nonvested amounts, the Employer will make an additional contribution to the Plan sufficient to fully reinstate such amounts. ARTICLE 11 WITHDRAWALS 11.1 HARDSHIP WITHDRAWALS (A) The Administrator shall direct the Trustee to make a distribution to a Participant in accordance with this Section in the event of a Participant's Hardship and request for withdrawal. For purposes of this Section, a distribution will be on account of Hardship only if the distribution: (1) Is made on account of an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant; and (2) Is necessary to satisfy such immediate and heavy financial need and does not exceed the amount required to relieve such need and is not reasonably available from other resources of the Participant. (B) Immediate and heavy financial needs recognized by the Plan shall include and be limited to: (1) Medical expenses (as described in Section 213(d) of the Code) incurred by the Participant, the Participant's Spouse or any dependent of the Participant (as defined in Section 152 of the Code); (2) Purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a principal residence for the Participant; (3) Payment of tuition and related educational fees for the next 12 months of post-secondary education for the Participant or the Participant's Spouse, children or dependents; (4) The need to prevent eviction of the Participant from his principal residence or foreclosure on the mortgage of the Participant's principal residence; or (5) Such other immediate and heavy financial needs as determined by the Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service and announced by publication of revenue rulings, notices and other documents of general applicability. (C) A distribution will be deemed necessary to satisfy the immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant if: (1) The distribution is not in excess of the amount of the immediate and heavy financial need; (2) The Participant has obtained all distributions, other than hardship distributions, and all nontaxable loans currently available under all plans maintained by the Employer; (3) The Plan, and all other plans maintained by the Employer, other than health care plans, provide that the Participant's elective contributions and employee contributions, if any, will be suspended for at least 12 months after receipt of the hardship distribution; and (4) The Plan, and all other plans maintained by the Employer, provide that the Participant may not make elective contributions for the Participant's taxable year immediately following the taxable year of the hardship distribution in excess of the applicable limit under Section 402(g) of the Code for such next taxable year less the amount of such Participant's elective contributions for the taxable year of the Hardship distribution. (D) The Administrator may require the submission of such evidence as it may reasonably deem necessary to confirm the existence of such a Hardship. In the case of a married Participant, a requested Hardship withdrawal shall not be paid unless the Participant's Spouse has consented in writing to the payment of such withdrawal in the form of a lump sum (instead of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity). The Spouse's consent shall be given within the 90-day period preceding payment of the withdrawal. A request for distribution pursuant to this Section shall be approved or denied by written instrument given by the Administrator to the Participant at his address as provided to the Administrator, within sixty (60) days after the date the written request, complete with all evidence with respect thereto requested by the Administrator, is given to the Administrator by the Participant. In the event that such request is approved, the distribution shall be made within thirty (30) days after notice of approval is given by the Administrator to the Participant from such portions of the Participant's Account as he shall designate; provided, however, that under no circumstances may Employer Contributions and earnings thereon, or earnings on the Participant's Deferred Salary Contributions, be distributed pursuant to this Section. 11.2 WITHDRAWAL OF AFTER-TAX CONTRIBUTIONS Upon written request to the Plan Administrator, a Participant may withdraw all or any part of the amount credited to his After-Tax Contributions Account, provided, however, that the Participant may make such withdrawal only once each Plan Year. All such withdrawals shall be made within sixty (60) days of the receipt of the Participant's written request by the Administrator, or as soon thereafter as practicable. 11.3 LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS 11.3.1 AMOUNT OF LOANS. With the Company's prior written consent, a Participant who is an Employee (or who otherwise is a 'party in interest' as defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) may obtain a cash loan from the Participant's Accounts. The minimum amount of the loan shall be $1,000. Subject to Section 11.3.2, the maximum amount of the loan shall be 50% of the value of the vested portion of the Participant's Accounts. 11.3.2 AGGREGATE LOAN LIMITATION. No loan shall be granted under the Plan if it would cause the aggregate balance of all loans which a Participant thereafter has outstanding under this Plan or under any other qualified plan maintained by any member of the Affiliated Group to exceed $50,000, less the amount by which such aggregate balance has been reduced through repayments during the period of 12 consecutive months ending on the day before a new loan is made. 11.3.3 TERMS OF LOANS. A loan to a Participant shall be made on such terms and conditions as the Company may determine, provided that the loan shall: (a) Be evidenced by a promissory note signed by the Participant and secured by no more than 50% of the value of the vested portion of all of his or her Accounts (regardless of the amount of the loan or the source of the loan funds); (b) Bear interest at a fixed rate equal to the prime interest rate in effect at the New York main office of Citibank, N.A., plus 1% on the last business day of the month immediately preceding the date on which the Company receives the prescribed loan request form; (c) Provide for declining balance amortization over its term with payments at quarterly or more frequent intervals, as determined by the Company; (d) Provide for loan payments of not less than $10 per payment; (e) Provide for loan payments (i) to be withheld whenever possible through periodic payroll deductions from the Participant's compensation from the Company or (ii) to be paid by check or money order whenever payroll withholding is not possible; (f) Provide for repayment in full on or before the earlier of (i) the date when the Participant ceases to be an Employee or (ii) the date five years after the loan is made (or the date 15 years after the loan is made if the loan is used to acquire a dwelling which, within a reasonable period of time, is to be used as the principal residence of the Participant); and (g) Provide that a Participant's Accounts shall not be applied to the satisfaction of the Participant's loan obligations before the Accounts become distributable under Article 9, unless the Company determines that the loan obligations are in default and takes such actions as the Company deems necessary or appropriate to cause the Plan to realize on its security for the loan. Such actions may include (without limitation) an involuntary withdrawal from the Participant's vested Accounts, whether or not the withdrawal would be permitted under Section 11.5 on a voluntary basis; provided that an involuntary withdrawal from vested Company contributions paid within the most recent 24 months or from Deferred Salary Accounts shall be made only to the extent that the requirements of Section 11.5 are met. The Company may take such action as it deems necessary to recover the balance of a loan secured by such Company contributions or by Deferred Salary Accounts. If an involuntary withdrawal from Deferred Salary Accounts or Employer Account occurs, the Participant shall be subject to the consequences described in Article 9. If any involuntary withdrawal occurs, the Participant shall not be permitted to obtain a new loan under the Plan for a period of 12 months, commencing as of the last day of the payroll period in which the involuntary withdrawal occurs. The consent of the Participant's Spouse shall not be required at the time of any action taken by the Company under this Section 11.3.3(g). 11.3.4 COMPANY CONSENT. The Company, based on the borrower's creditworthiness and the criteria set forth in this Section 11.3, may withhold its consent to any loan or may consent only to the borrowing of a part of the amount requested by the Participant. The Company shall act upon requests for loans in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner, consistent with the requirements of Section 401(a), Section 401(k) and related provisions of the Code and Section 408(b)(1) of ERISA and the regulations thereunder. 11.3.5 RESTRICTIONS ON LOANS. No Participant shall have more than one loan under this Section 11.3 outstanding at the same time. A Participant shall not be permitted to obtain more than one loan under this Section 11.3 in any period of 12 consecutive months. A married Participant shall not be permitted to obtain any loan under this Section 11.3 unless his or her Spouse has consented in writing to the assignment of his or her Accounts as security and to any actions that the Company subsequently may take under Section 11.3.3(g), except to the extent the portion of the Participant's Accounts used as security for the loan does not exceed $3,500. 11.3.6 DISBURSEMENT AND SOURCE OF LOANS. A Participant may request a loan by filing a request with the Company in accordance with procedures established by the Company. A loan shall be disbursed as soon as reasonably practicable after the date on which the Company receives the loan request (subject to the Company's consent). For purposes of this Section 11.3, the value and vested percentage of a Participant's Accounts shall be determined on the last business day of the quarter immediately preceding the date when the Trustee effects the loan transaction or such other more current valuation date that the Company may determine. If a Participant requests and is granted a loan, the amount of the loan shall be transferred from the Participant's Accounts. If more than one Account is available to make a transfer, the transfer shall be made proportionately from each Account, subject to such other ordering rules as the Company may adopt. The promissory note executed by the Participant shall be held by the Trustee or its agent as part of the Trust Fund. 11.3.7 LOAN PAYMENTS AND DEFAULTS. Principal and interest payments on a Participant's loan shall be credited as soon as reasonably practicable to the Participant's Accounts proportionately, subject to the ordering rules, if any, adopted by the Company. Any loss caused by nonpayment or other default on a Participant's loan obligations shall be borne solely by that Participant's Accounts. 11.3.8 LOAN FEES. A Participant who obtains a loan under this Section 11.3 shall be required to pay such fees as the Trustee or its agent may impose in order to defray the cost of administering loans from the Plan. ARTICLE 12 DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS DEFERRALS, EXCESS CONTRIBUTIONS AND EXCESS AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTIONS 12.1 DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS CONTRIBUTIONS (A) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Excess Contributions (as hereinafter defined) and income allocable thereto, including income for periods after the close of the Plan Year to which the Excess Contributions applies, if appropriate, shall be distributed as soon as administratively possible, but in no event later than the last day of each Plan Year, to Participants on whose behalf such Excess Contributions were made for the preceding Plan Year. (B) For purposes of this Section, 'Excess Contributions' for any Plan Year means the aggregate amount of Deferred Salary Contributions of Highly Compensated Employees for any Plan Year (not including any such Deferred Salary Contributions that exceed the $9,240 limit of Section 402(g)(3) of the Code and are distributed to Participants for the calendar year ending with such Plan Year pursuant to Section 4.1(C)) that exceeds the limitations described in Section 4.4. (C) The amount of such Excess Contributions distributable to Highly Compensated Employees shall be determined by reducing the Actual Deferral Percentage of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest Actual Deferral Percentage to the extent required to (1) Enable the cash or deferred arrangement to satisfy the deferral percentage test limitation described in Section 4.4; or (2) Cause such Highly Compensated Employee's Actual Deferral Percentage to equal the Actual Deferral Percentage of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest Actual Deferral Percentage. This process must be repeated until the cash or deferred arrangement satisfies one of the deferral percentage tests described in Section 4.4. Any Excess Contributions of any of the 10 most highly compensated Highly Compensated Employees and any five percent (5%) owner affected by the family aggregation rules described in the definition of the term 'Highly Compensated Employee' in Section 2.35 above shall be allocated among the individuals in each family aggregation group in proportion to the Deferred Salary Contributions taken into account under Section 4.4 for each such individual. Any Excess Aggregate Contributions of any of the 10 most highly compensated Highly Compensated Employees and any five percent (5%) owner affected by the family aggregation rules described in the definition of the term 'Highly Compensated Employee' in Section 2.35 above shall be allocated among the individuals in each family aggregation group in proportion to the After-Tax Contributions and Employer Matching Contributions taken into account under Section 5.3 for each such individual. (D) The income allocable to Excess Contributions shall be determined by multiplying income allocable to the Participant's Deferred Salary Contributions and Employer Contributions for the Plan Year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Contribution on behalf of the Participant for the preceding Plan Year and the denominator of which is the sum of the Participant's account balances attributable to Deferred Salary Contributions and Employer Contributions on the last day of the preceding Plan Year. Income allocable to Excess Contributions for the Plan Year and for the "gap period" between the end of the Plan Year and the date of distribution shall be determined pursuant to Proposed Regulation Section 1.401(k)-1(f)(4). (E) The Excess Contributions which would otherwise be distributed to the Participant shall be adjusted for income in accordance with regulations and other official pronouncements from the Secretary of the Treasury. (F) Amounts distributed pursuant to this Section shall first be treated as distributions from the Participant's Deferred Salary Account and shall be treated as distributed from the Participant's Employer Contributions only to the extent such Excess Contributions exceed the balance in the Participant's Deferred Salary Account. 12.2 DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTIONS (A) Excess Aggregate Contributions and income allocable thereto shall be forfeited, pursuant to this Section, if otherwise forfeitable under the terms of this Plan, or if not forfeitable, distributed no later than the last day of each Plan Year to Participants who made After-Tax Contributions for the preceding Plan Year or who received an Employer Matching Contribution for the preceding Plan Year. (B) For purposes of this Section, 'Excess Aggregate Contributions' shall mean the amount described in Section 401(m)(6)(B) of the Code. (C) The Employer shall rank its Highly Compensated Employees by Contribution Percentage in descending order. The Employer shall then reduce the amount of Employer Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions taken into account in computing the Contribution Percentage which were made on the behalf of the Highly Compensated Employee with the Highest Contribution Percentage until the following occurs: (1) The Plan satisfies the limitations set forth in Section 5.3; or (2) The Contribution Percentage for such Highly Compensated Employee is reduced to a percentage which equals the Contribution Percentage of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest Contribution Percentage. In applying the reduction mechanism set forth in this Section, the After-Tax Contributions made by a Highly Compensated Employee shall be reduced before the Employer Matching Contributions made on behalf of such Highly Compensated Employee are reduced. (D) The income allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be determined by multiplying the income allocable to the Employer Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions for the Plan Year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Aggregate Contributions made on behalf of the Participant for the preceding Plan Year and the denominator of which is the sum of the Participant's account balance attributable to Employer Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions. Income allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Plan Year and for the "gap period" between the end of the Plan Year and the date of distribution (or forfeiture) shall be determined pursuant to Proposed Regulations Section 1.401(m)-1(e)(3). (E) The Excess Aggregate Contributions to be distributed to a Participant shall be adjusted for income, and, if there is a loss allocable to the Excess Aggregate Contributions, shall in no event be less than the lesser of the Participant's Account Balance under the Plan or the Participant's Employer Matching Contributions and After-Tax Contributions for the Plan Year. (F) Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be distributed from the Participant's After-Tax Contributions Account and forfeited, if otherwise forfeitable under the terms of the Plan (or, if not forfeitable, distributed), from the Participant's Matching Contribution Account in proportion to the Participant's Matching Contributions for the Plan Year. (G) Amounts forfeited by Highly Compensated Employees under this Section shall be: (1) Treated as Annual Additions under Sections 5.6 and 5.7 of the Plan; and (2) Allocated, after all other forfeitures under the Plan, to the same Participants and in the same manner as such other forfeitures of Employer Matching Contributions are allocated to Participants under the Plan; provided, however, that no such forfeitures arising under this Section shall be allocated to the account of any Highly Compensated Employee. ARTICLE 13 ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 13.1 PLAN ADMINISTRATOR Except as to those functions reserved within the Plan to the Board of Directors, there shall be an individual administrator or an administrative committee (hereafter referred to as the Administrator) appointed by the Board of Directors to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan. The Administrator shall be considered the "named fiduciary" and the "plan administrator" for purposes of ERISA and the Code. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to allocate or delegate among themselves, to the Administrator, or to any other person, any fiduciary responsibility with respect to the Plan. 13.2 SELECTION OF COMMITTEE If the Board of Directors appoints a committee to be the Administrator, then such committee shall consist of not fewer than three nor more than seven members to serve at its pleasure and without compensation for service as such. The committee shall select a secretary (who may, but need not, be a member of the committee) to keep its records or to assist it in the doing of any act or thing to be done or performed by the committee. A majority of the members of the committee at the time in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of the business at any meeting. Any determination or action of the committee may be made or taken by a majority of the members present at any meeting thereof, or without a meeting by a resolution or written memorandum concurred in by a majority of the members then in office. No member who is a Participant of this Plan, however, shall vote on any question relating solely to himself. 13.3 POWERS OF THE ADMINISTRATOR The Administrator, subject to the limitations herein contained and to such other restrictions as the Board of Directors may make, shall have the discretionary power and the duty to take all action and to make all decisions necessary or proper to carry out the provisions of Plan. The determination of the Administrator as to any question involving the general administration and interpretation of the Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding. Any discretionary actions to be taken under the Plan by the Administrator with respect to the classification of Employees, Participants, beneficiaries, contributions, or benefits shall be uniform in their nature and applicable to all persons similarly situated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator shall have the following powers and duties: (A) To require any person to furnish such information as it may request for the purpose of the proper administration of the Plan as a condition of receiving any benefits under the Plan; (B) To make and enforce such rules and regulations and prescribe the use of such forms as it shall deem necessary for the efficient administration of the Plan; (C) To interpret the Plan, and to resolve ambiguities, inconsistencies and omissions, which findings shall be binding, final and conclusive; (D) To decide on questions concerning the Plan and the eligibility of any Employee to participate in the Plan, in accordance with the provisions of the Plan; (E) To determine the amount of benefits which shall be payable to any person in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. The Administrator may require claims for benefits to be filed in writing, on such forms and containing such information as the Board may deem necessary. Adequate notice shall be provided in writing to any Participant or beneficiary thereof whose claim for benefits under the Plan has been wholly or partially denied. The Plan claim review procedure is more particularly described in Section 13.7 of the Plan. Notice of denial of a claim shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Participant or his Beneficiary and shall afford reasonable opportunity to the Participant or his Beneficiary whose claim for benefits has been denied for a full and fair review of the decision denying the claim; (F) To allocate any such powers and duties to or among individual members of any administrative committee serving as the Administrator; (G) To designate persons other than Administrator to carry out any duty or power which would otherwise be a fiduciary responsibility of the Administrator, under the terms of the Plan; and (H) To make such administrative or technical amendments to the Plan as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of the Board of Directors, including such amendments as may be required to satisfy the requirements of Section 401(a) and Section 401(k) of the Code, and of ERISA and any similar provisions or subsequent revenue or other laws, or the rules and regulations from time to time in effect under any of such laws or to conform with governmental regulations or other policies. 13.4 SELECTION AND REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE The Board of Directors shall appoint and they shall retain the power to discharge or replace the Trustee. However, the power to appoint, discharge or replace the Trustee shall not confer any responsibility or authority upon the Board of Directors with respect to the management or control of the assets of the Plan. 13.5 SELECTION OF OTHER PROFESSIONAL COUNSELORS (A) The Administrator may employ a counsel, a qualified public accountant, a qualified actuary, consultant and such clerical, medical and other accounting services as it may require in carrying out the provisions of the Plan or in complying with requirements imposed by ERISA and the Code. (B) The Administrator may appoint an investment manager or managers and delegate investment responsibilities to manage any assets of the Plan, including the power to acquire and dispose of fund assets and to perform such other services as the Administrator shall deem necessary or desirable in connection with the management of Plan assets. Such investment manager or managers shall (i) be registered as an investment advisor under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940; (ii) be a bank, as defined in the Investment Advisors Act of 1940; or (iii) be an insurance company qualified to manage, acquire or dispose of qualified plan assets under the laws of more than one State; and shall acknowledge in writing to the Administrator that he is (or they are) a fiduciary with respect to the Plan. Anything in this Article or elsewhere in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall be relieved of the authority and discretion to manage and solely control the assets of the Plan to the extent that authority to acquire, dispose of, or otherwise manage the assets of the Plan is delegated to one or more investment managers in accordance with this Section. 13.6 RELIANCE ON PROFESSIONAL COUNSELORS To the extent permitted by law, the Administrator and any person to whom it may delegate any duty or power in connection with administering the Plan, the Employer, and the officers and directors thereof, shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken or suffered by them in good faith in reliance upon, any counsel, accountant, other specialist, or other person selected by the Administrator, or in reliance upon any tables, valuations, certificates, opinions or reports which shall be furnished by any of them or by the Trustee. Further, to the extent permitted by law, no member of the Administrator, nor the Employer, nor the officers nor directors thereof, shall be liable for any neglect, omission or wrongdoing of the Trustee or any other member of the Administrator. 13.7 PLAN CLAIM PROCEDURE (A) Any claim for a Plan benefit hereunder shall be filed by a Participant or Beneficiary (claimant) of this Plan on the form prescribed for such purpose with the Administrator, or in lieu thereof, by written communication which is made by the claimant or the claimant's authorized representative which is reasonably calculated to bring the claim to the attention of the Administrator. (B) If a claim for a Plan benefit is wholly or partially denied, notice of the decision shall be furnished to the claimant by the Administrator within ninety (90) days after receipt of the claim by the Administrator. (C) Any claimant who is denied a claim for benefit shall be furnished written notice setting forth: (1) The specific reason or reasons for the denial; (2) Specific reference to the pertinent Plan provisions upon which the denial is based; (3) A description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary; and (4) An explanation of the Plan's claim review procedure. (D) In order that a claimant may appeal denial of a claim, a claimant or his duly authorized representative: (1) May request a review by written application to the Administrator not later than sixty (60) days after receipt by the claimant of written notification of denial of a claim; (2) May review pertinent documents; and (3) May submit issues and comments in writing. (E) A decision on review of a denied claim shall be made not later than sixty (60) days after the Plan's receipt of a request for review, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing, in which case a decision shall be rendered within a reasonable period of time, but not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of a request for review. The decision on review shall be in writing and shall include the specific reason(s) for the decision and the specific reference(s) to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision is based. 13.8 SOURCE OF PAYMENT OF EXPENSES All expenses prior to the termination of the Plan that shall arise in connection with the administration of the Plan, including but not limited to the compensation of the Trustee, administrative expenses and proper charges and disbursements of the Trustee and compensation and other expenses and charges of any counsel, accountant, specialist or other person who shall be employed by the Administrator in connection with the administration thereof, shall be paid from the Trust Fund to the extent not paid by the Employer. 13.9 COMPENSATION OF THE ADMINISTRATOR The Administrator shall serve without compensation for services as such (other than any compensation the Administrator may receive as an employee of the Employer), but all reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of their duties shall, to the extent not paid by the Employer, be paid from the Trust Fund. Unless otherwise determined by the Company or unless required by any Federal or State law, the Administrator shall not be required to give any bond or other security in any jurisdiction. 13.10 FIDUCIARY LIABILITY INSURANCE The Administrator may, to the extent permitted by law, procure and pay (from assets of the Plan or the Employer) insurance premiums for fiduciary liability insurance covering the Board of Directors, the Administrator and other such Employees of the Employer as the Administrator shall in their discretion determine. To the extent such insurance is not obtained and to the extent permitted by law, the Employer shall indemnify any fiduciary described in the preceding sentence for any loss arising out of any action in connection with the performance (or omission) of any duty imposed by the Plan. ARTICLE 14 AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION 14.1 RIGHT TO AMEND (A) The Board of Directors, a delegate of the Board of Directors or an authorized officer of the Company reserves the right at any time and from time to time and retroactively if deemed necessary or appropriate, to modify or amend, in whole or in part, any or all of the provisions of the Plan. (B) No such modification or amendment, however, shall make it possible for any part of the corpus or income of the Trust Fund to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and their beneficiaries under the Plan prior to the satisfaction of all liabilities with respect to Participants and their Beneficiaries under the Plan, prior to the satisfaction of all liabilities with respect thereto. Moreover, no amendment or modification shall make it possible to deprive any Participant of a previously accrued benefit (including an optional form of benefit), except to the extent permitted by Section 412(c)(8) of the Code. (C) The Administrator may adopt amendments which do not significantly affect the cost of the Plan and which may be necessary or appropriate to qualify or maintain the Plan, any trust and any contract with an insurance carrier which may form a part of the Plan as a plan and trust meeting the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code. 14.2 RIGHT TO DISCONTINUE PLAN The Board of Directors reserves the power to discontinue the Plan at any time with respect to any or all Employers. Unless the Plan be sooner terminated, a successor to the business or any portion thereof of an Employer, by whatever form or manner resulting, with the written consent of the Company, may continue the Plan and become a party to the Trust Agreement by executing appropriate supplemental agreements and other documents, and such successor shall, succeed to all applicable rights, powers and duties of such Employer with relation thereto. The employment of any Participant who is continued in the employ of such successor shall not be deemed to have been terminated or severed for any purpose under the Plan. 14.3 OBLIGATIONS UPON MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR TRANSFER In the event of any merger or consolidation with, or transfer of assets or liabilities to, any other plan, each Participant shall be entitled to receive a benefit if the Plan were to terminate immediately after the merger, consolidation, or transfer, which is not less than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive if the Plan had terminated immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer. 14.4 OBLIGATIONS UPON TERMINATION, PARTIAL TERMINATION OR DISCONTINUANCE (A) While each Employer intends to continue the Plan indefinitely, nevertheless it assumes no contractual obligation as to the Plan's continuance, and the Board of Directors may terminate the Plan as to any Employer. In the case of any termination, partial termination or complete discontinuance of contributions, each Participant who is then an Employee and who is affected by the termination, partial termination or complete discontinuance of contributions shall have a one hundred percent (100%) non-forfeitable interest in the Account Balance. (B) At the direction of the Administrator after any such discontinuance, and after payment of, or appropriate reserve for, the expenses of any such discontinuance each Participant's Account Balance shall be paid in cash to each Participant, or, if he is then deceased, to his designated beneficiary, if living, or, if such beneficiary is not living, to such deceased Participant's estate. (C) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant's Account Balance shall not be distributed pursuant to a termination, partial termination or complete discontinuance of contributions if the Employer or an affiliated Employer maintains a successor plan with respect to the Participant. 14.5 CONTINUED FUNDING AFTER PLAN TERMINATION Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no Employer, upon any termination or partial termination of the Plan, shall have any obligation or liability whatsoever to make any further payments for the benefit of Participants (including all or any part of any contributions payable prior to any termination of the Plan), to the Trustee for benefits under the Plan. Neither the Trustee, the Board of Directors, the Administrator, nor any Participant, Employee, nor beneficiary, shall have any right to compel an Employer to make any payment after the termination or partial termination of the Plan. 14.6 DISTRIBUTION UPON SALE OF ASSETS A Participant's Account Balance may be distributed to the Participant as soon as administratively feasible after the sale of substantially all of the assets used by the Employer in the trade or business in which the Participant is employed if the Participant is no longer employed by the Employer or an affiliated Employer who has adopted the Plan and the assets were not sold to a related employer. ARTICLE 15 GENERAL PROVISIONS 15.1 NO IMPLIED EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT This Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Employer and any Employee or other person whether or not in the employ of the Employer, nor shall anything herein contained be deemed to give any Employee or other person, whether or not in the employ of the Employer, any right to be retained in the employ of the Employer, or to interfere with the right of the Employer to discharge any Employee at any time and to treat him without any regard to the effect which such treatment might have upon him as a Participant in the Plan. 15.2 BENEFITS NOT ASSIGNABLE Except as may otherwise be provided by law, no distribution or payment under the Plan to any Participant or beneficiary shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, whether voluntary or involuntary, and any attempt to so anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge the same shall be void; nor shall any such distribution or payment be in any way liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagement or torts of any person entitled to such distribution or payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right to a benefit payable with respect to a Participant pursuant to a "qualified domestic relations order" (as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code) may be created, assigned or recognized. The Administrator shall establish reasonable procedures to determine the qualified status of domestic relations orders and to administer distributions under such qualified orders in a manner consistent with Section 414(p) of the Code. 15.3 FACILITY OF PAYMENT If the Administrator determines that any person entitled to payments under the Plan is an infant or incompetent by reason of physical or mental disability, the Administrator may cause all payments thereafter becoming due to such person to be made to any other person for his benefit, without responsibility to follow application of amounts so paid. Payments made pursuant to this provision shall completely discharge the Plan, Administrator and the Trustee. 15.4 SOURCE OF BENEFITS The Trust Fund shall be the sole source of benefits under this Plan, and each Employee, Participant, Beneficiary, or any other person who shall claim the right to any payment or benefit under this Plan shall be entitled to look only to the Trust Fund for payment of benefits. Except as may be otherwise provided by ERISA or other applicable law, the Employer shall have no liability to make or continue from its own funds the payment of any benefit under the Plan. 15.5 LOST PARTICIPANTS OR BENEFICIARIES If the Plan is unable to make payment to any Participant or Beneficiary who is entitled to receive a Plan Benefit, because it cannot ascertain the identity or whereabouts of such Participant or Beneficiary after reasonable efforts have been made to identify or locate such person (including a notice of the payment so due mailed to the last known address of such Participant or Beneficiary as shown on the records of the Employer), such payment and all subsequent payments otherwise due to such Participant or other person shall be forfeited and used to reduce Employer contributions to the Plan twenty-four (24) months after the date such payment first became due; provided, however, that such payment and any subsequent payments shall be reinstated retroactively, without interest, no later than sixty (60) days after the date on which the Participant or Beneficiary is identified or located. 15.6 SERVICE IN SEVERAL FIDUCIARY CAPACITIES Any person, group of persons, or entity, may serve in more than one fiduciary capacity with respect to the Plan. 15.7 CONSTRUCTION OF PLAN Headings to the articles, sections or subsections of the Plan have been supplied for convenience only and are not to be taken as limiting or extending the meanings of any of the provisions of the Plan. 15.8 GOVERNING LAW The provisions of the Plan shall be construed, administered and governed under ERISA and, to the extent not preempted, the laws of the State of California. 15.9 INTENT TO COMPLY WITH LEGAL REQUIREMENTS The Employer intends that the Plan shall be a qualified plan of deferred compensation established for the exclusive benefit of its Employees and their Beneficiaries as provided for in Section 401(a) of the Code or as provided for in any similar provisions of subsequent revenue laws and that the Plan assets held by the Trustee shall be exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code. 15.10 ANNUITY CONTRACTS Any annuity contract purchased by the Plan and distributed to a Participant shall provide that the benefits under the contract shall be provided in accordance with the applicable consent, present value and other requirements of Section 417(e) of the Code. 15.11 VOTING RIGHTS Before each annual or special meeting of the Company's stockholders, the Company shall cause to be sent to each Participant a copy of the proxy statement being sent to the registered stockholders of the Company. A Participant shall have the right to instruct the Trustee confidentially with respect to the voting of all shares of FHC Stock, whether or not vested, that were allocated to his or her Account on the applicable record date for such meeting. The Company shall conclusively determine the number of the whole and fractional shares of FHC Stock that are subject to each Participant's voting instructions and shall advise the Trustee accordingly. The voting instructions shall be on a form prescribed by the Company and shall be submitted to the Trustee not later than the date specified by the Company. Once received by the Trustee, the voting instructions shall be irrevocable. Under no circumstances shall the Trustee permit the Company or any representative thereof to see any voting instructions given by any Participant to the Trustee. The Trustee shall vote any shares of FHC Stock with respect to which it has not received (prior to the date specified by the Company) voting instructions on the prescribed form from the appropriate Participants, in direct proportion to the shares with respect to which it has received timely voting instructions from Participants. 15.12 OTHER INSTRUCTIONS BY PARTICIPANTS In the event that any person or group of persons makes a tender offer subject to Section 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to acquire all or part of the outstanding shares of FHC Stock, including the Stock held in the FHC Stock Fund ("Acquisition Offer"), each Participant shall be entitled to direct the Trustee confidentially (on a form to be prescribed by the Company) to tender all or part of those shares of FHC Stock which would then be subject to such Participant's voting instructions under Section 15.11. If the Trustee receives an instruction by the date communicated by the Company to Participants, the Trustee shall tender such shares in accordance with such instruction. Any shares of FHC Stock with respect to which the Trustee does not receive timely instructions shall be tendered or withheld by the Trustee in the same proportion as the shares with respect to which the Trustee has received timely instructions from Participants. The Company shall distribute to each Participant all appropriate materials pertaining to the Acquisition Offer, including the statement of the position of the Company with respect to such offer issued pursuant to Rule 14e-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as soon as practicable after such materials are issued; provided, however, that if the Company fails to issue such statement within five business days after the commencement of such offer, the Company shall distribute such materials to each Participant without the statement by the Company and shall separately distribute such statement as soon as practicable after it is issued. The Trustee shall follow the procedures regarding the confidentiality of instructions described in Section 15.11. ARTICLE 16 ROLLOVER CONTRIBUTIONS AND TRANSFERS 16.1 TRANSFERS FROM OTHER PLANS In the event that an individual (A) Becomes an Employee eligible to participate in the Plan, and (B) Was a participant in a plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, the trust of which is exempt from tax under Section 501(a) of the Code, and (C) Received from such trust a "qualified total distribution" (within the meaning of subsection 402(a)(5)(E) of the Code) which qualifies for rollover treatment in accordance with Section 402(a)(5), and (D) such "qualified total distribution" consists of money, then, with the consent of the Company, the eligible Employee may transfer any portion of the distribution, to the extent it exceeds the amount referred to in subsection 402(e)(4)(D)(i) of the Code, to this Plan on or before the sixtieth (60th) day after the day on which he received such distribution, and upon receipt by the Plan, such amount shall be credited to the Rollover Account established under the Plan, pursuant to Article 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there may be transferred directly from the trustee of another plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, the trust of which is exempt from tax under Section 501(a) of the Code, to the Trustee, subject to the approval of the Administrator and the Trustee that such transfer will not adversely affect the qualified status of the Plan, all or any of the assets, including voluntary contributions, if any (whether by Trustee, Custodian or otherwise) on behalf of the other plan which is maintained for the benefit of any Employees who are about to become Participants in this Plan. The eligible Employee shall have a one hundred percent (100%) vested and nonforfeitable right to all amounts credited to his Rollover Account as a result of any transfer pursuant to this Section. 16.2 ROLLOVER OF FUNDS FROM CONDUIT INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNT (IRA) In the event that an individual (A) Becomes an Employee eligible to participate in the Plan, and (B) Shall have established an Individual Retirement Account or Individual Retirement Annuity (hereinafter collectively referred to as "IRA") described in Sections 408(a) and 408(b), respectively, of the Code, which IRA is comprised solely of amounts constituting a rollover contribution of a qualified total distribution from an employer's trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code, which is exempt from tax under Section 501(a) of the Code, or an annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of the Code, and (C) Received from such IRA the entire amount of the account or the entire value of the annuity, including any earnings on such sums, pursuant to Section 408(d)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code, then, with the consent of the Company, the eligible Employee may transfer the entire amount received in such distribution to this Plan (for the benefit of such individual) on or before the sixtieth (60th) day after the day on which he received such payment or distribution, and upon receipt by the Plan, such amount shall be credited to the Rollover Account established hereunder. The Participant shall have a one hundred percent (100%) vested and nonforfeitable right to all amounts credited to his Rollover Account as a result of such IRA rollover. 16.3 MISTAKEN ROLLOVER If it is determined that a Participant's rollover contribution did not qualify under the Code for a tax free rollover, then as soon as reasonably possible the balance in the Participant's Rollover Account shall be: (A) Segregated from all other Plan assets; (B) Treated as a non-qualified trust established by and for the benefit of the Participant; and (C) Distributed to the Participant. Such a mistaken rollover contribution shall be deemed never to have been a part of the Plan and shall not adversely affect the tax qualification of the Plan under the Code. ARTICLE 17 TOP-HEAVY PROVISIONS 17.1 TOP-HEAVY PLAN DEFINED This Article shall apply if the Plan is a "Top-Heavy Plan" as hereinafter provided. The Plan shall be a "Top-Heavy Plan" in a Plan Year if, as of the Determination Date the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits (as calculated below) of all Key Employees exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the present value of the accumulative accrued benefits under the Plan of all Employees and Key Employees, but excluding the value of the accrued benefits of former Key Employees. In determining whether this Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, all employers that are aggregated under Sections 414(b), (c), (m) and (o) of the Code shall be treated as a single employer. In addition, all plans that are part of the Required Aggregation Group shall be treated as a single plan. The Plan shall apply the special rules of Code Sections 416(g)(4)(A), (B) and (E) to determine which Employees and which benefits are taken into account to determine whether the Plan (or any other plan included in a Required Aggregation Group of which the Plan is a part) is a Top-Heavy Plan. Solely for the purpose of determining if the Plan, or any other plan included in a Required Aggregation Group of which this Plan is a part, is Top- Heavy, the accrued benefit of an Employee other than a Key Employee shall be determined under (A) the method, if any, that uniformly applies for accrual purposes under all plans maintained by the affiliated employers, or (B) if there is no such method, as if such benefit accrued not more rapidly than the slowest accrual rate permitted under the fractional accrual rate of Section 411(b)(1)(C) of the Code. For this purpose, the present value of an Employee's accrued benefit is equal to the sum of (A) and (B) below: (A) The sum of (i) the present value of an Employee's accrued retirement income in each defined benefit plan which is included in the Required Aggregation Group determined as of the most recent valuation date within the twelve (12) month period ending on the Determination Date and as if the Employee had terminated service as of such valuation date and (ii) the aggregate distribution made with respect to such Employee during the five-year period ending on the Determination Date from all defined benefit plans included in the Required Aggregation Group and not reflected in the value of his accrued retirement income as of the most recent valuation date. In determining present value for all plans in the Required Aggregation Group, the actuarial assumptions set forth for this purpose in the Employer's defined benefit plan shall be utilized and the commencement date shall be determined taking any nonproportional subsidy into account; and (B) The sum of (i) the aggregate balance of his accounts in all defined contribution plans which are part of the Required Aggregation Group as of the most recent valuation date within the twelve (12) month period ending on the Determination Date, (ii) any contributions allocated to such an account after the valuation date and on or before the Determination Date, and (iii) the aggregate distributions made with respect to such Employee during the five-year period ending on the Determination Date from all defined contribution plans which are part of the Required Aggregation Group and not reflected in the value of his account(s) as of the most recent valuation date. 17.2 OTHER DEFINITIONS For the purposes of this Article, the following terms shall have the following meanings: (A) "Determination Date" means the last day of the preceding Plan Year except that in the case of the first Plan Year, the term "Determination Date" shall mean the last day of the Plan Year. (B) "Employee" means (i) a current employee or (ii) a former employee who performed services for the Employer during the Plan Year containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4) preceding Plan Years. (C) "Key Employee" means an Employee, a former Employee or the Beneficiary under the Plan of a former Employee who, in the Plan Year containing the Determination Date, or any of the four preceding Plan Years, is: (1) An officer of the Employer having an annual Total Compensation greater than fifty percent (50%) of the amount in effect under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code for any such Plan Year. Not more than fifty (50) Employees or, if lesser, the greater of three (3) Employees or ten percent (10%) of the Employees shall be considered as officers for purposes of this subparagraph. (2) One of the ten (10) Employees owning (or considered as owning within the meaning of Section 318 of the Code) the largest interest in the Employer, which is more than one-half percent (.5%) ownership interest in value, and whose Total Compensation equals or exceeds the maximum dollar limitation under Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code as in effect for the calendar year in which the Determination Date falls. (3) A five-percent (5%) owner of the Employer. (4) A one percent (1%) owner of the Employer having an annual Total Compensation from the Employer of more than $150,000. Whether an Employee is a five percent (5%) owner or a one percent (1%) owner shall be determined in accordance with Section 416(i) of the Code. (D) "Non-Key Employee" means an Employee who is not a Key Employee. (E) "Required Aggregation Group" means (1) Each stock bonus, pension, or profit sharing plan of the Employer in which a Key Employee participates and which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code; and (2) Each other such stock bonus, pension or profit sharing plan of an Employer which enables any plan in which a Key Employee participates to meet the requirements of Section 401(a)(4) or Section 410 of the Code. 17.3 TOP-HEAVY VESTING (A) If the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan in a Plan Year, the nonforfeitable percentage of the Account Balance of a Participant for such Plan Year who is credited with an Hour of Service in such Plan Year shall be determined in accordance with the vesting provisions described in Section 10.2 of the Plan. (B) A Participant's nonforfeitable benefit shall not be less than his vested Account Balance determined as of the last day of the last Plan Year in which the Plan was a Top-Heavy Plan. 17.4 TOP-HEAVY CONTRIBUTIONS (A) Solely in the event that any Participant who is a Non-Key Employee is not covered by a defined benefit plan of the Employer which provides the minimum benefit required by Section 416(c)(1) of the Code during a Plan Year in which this Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the Employer contributions and forfeitures allocated to each such Non-Key Employee who has not separated from service by the end of the Plan Year shall be equal to not less than the lesser of: (1) Three percent (3%) of such Participant's Total Compensation in the Plan Year, or (2) The greatest allocation, expressed as a percentage of Compensation, made to any Participant who is a Key Employee. (B) The percentage referred to in subparagraph (2) above shall be determined by dividing the contributions and forfeitures allocated to the Key Employee by such Employee's Compensation. The Employer shall make such additional contribution to the Plan as shall be necessary to make the allocation described above. The provisions of this Section apply without regard to contributions or benefits under Social Security or any other Federal or State law. An adjustment may be made to this Section, as permitted under Treasury Regulations, in the event an employee is also entitled to an increased benefit in any other Top-Heavy plan while it is in the Aggregation Group with this Plan. (C) A Non-Key Employee who is otherwise entitled to a minimum contribution under this Section shall not fail to receive the required minimum contribution because the Employee is excluded from participation because the Employee failed to make elective Deferred Salary Contributions under the Plan. 17.5 ADJUSTMENT TO LIMITATION ON ANNUAL ADDITIONS (A) If the Employer also maintains a qualified defined benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(35) ERISA and Section 414(j) of the Code) and which is not part of a floor-offset arrangement (as defined in Section 414(k) of the Code) the denominator of both the Defined Benefit Plan Fraction and Defined Contribution Plan Fraction, as set forth in Section 5.6, for the limitation year ending in such Plan Year will be adjusted by substituting one (1) for one and twenty-five one hundredths (1.25) in each place the figure occurs. (B) The adjustments referred to in paragraph (A) are not required if: (1) the Plan would not be Top-Heavy if ninety percent (90%) were substituted for sixty percent (60%) in Section 17.1, and (2) Section 17.4(A) is adjusted by substituting four percent (4%) for three percent (3%) where the figure occurs. (C) The adjustments referred to in paragraph (A) above do not apply to any Participant as long as no Employer contributions, forfeitures, salary deferrals, or nondeductible voluntary contributions are allocated to such Participant's Accounts and the Participant does not accrue any benefits under any defined benefit plan maintained by the Employer. EXECUTION PAGE The Company has caused this amended and restated Plan to be adopted effective January 1, 1994, by having the Plan executed by its duly authorized officer this 22nd day of December, 1994.
