RISK OF INVESTMENT. Each Holder understands that operation of the Issuer's business is subject to numerous risks. Each Holder is able to bear the economic risk of the investment (i.e., he can afford a complete loss of his investment). Each Holder is familiar with the nature of and risks incident to investment in securities, and has determined (either alone or if need be on the basis of consultation with his business and tax advisors) that the purchase of the Notes and Stock is consistent with his investment objectives and income prospects. SECURITIES ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT. The Notes and shares of Stock acquired by each Holder will be acquired for investment and not with a view to the resale or distribution of such securities; and such securities are being acquired by each Holder for his own account and with his own funds and no person, other than the Holder, has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in such securities. Each Holder further understands that holding the investment for any pre-defined period of time does not constitute holding for investment or an agreement to hold the securities for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution. Each Holder has adequate means of providing for his current needs and foreseeable personal contingencies, has no need for liquidity in this investment, and anticipates no need now or in the foreseeable future to sell any of the securities which he hereby purchases. ACCREDITED INVESTOR.

RECITALS WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Investors purchase certain notes and stock of Borrower for an Aggregate Purchase price of $2,500,000.00 on terms and conditions set forth in said Note Agreement. The Borrower would not be able to continue its business without receiving such financing. Borrower has requested that the Investors make such an investment pursuant to the terms of the Note Agreement. WHEREAS, the Borrower needed to obtain new financing of $2,500,000.00 on certain terms and conditions as is set forth in the Note Agreement. WHEREAS, each Investor has loaned moneys in the aggregate of $2,500,000.00 under the Note Agreement , and commits to convert such loan into the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock of the Borrow (the "Series D") at the closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement by and among the Borrower and American Care Source dated as of September 23, 2002, as further amended on April __, 2003 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), to the following extent: 53 INVESTORS DOLLARS LOANED PROPORTIONATE SHARE --------- ---------------- ----------------------- Pappajohn $ 900,000.00 36.00% Principal $1,500,000.00 60.00% Pappajohn Trust $ 50,000.00 2.00% Pappajohn Profit Sharing Plan $ 50,000.00 2.00% ---------------- -------- Total $2,500,000.00 100.0% Pursuant to individual Promissory Notes which are a part of the Note Agreement, and pursuant to the Series D funding plan for the Borrower; and WHEREAS, it is the Investors' desire to execute this Agreement for the purpose of defining the respective pro rata and proportionate share rights and in defining their respective rights with respect to the Borrower's assets; NOW, therefore in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. PROMISE TO CONVERT; SERIES D. Each Investor promises each of other Investor hereunder that he will convert his proportionate share of the Promissory Notes in the Series D financing at the closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement. Any investor who did convert his Promissory Notes into in the Series D shall have all rights under the provisions of this agreement to demand from the non converting Investor to perform under this Agreement. 2. PROMISE TO PAY; INDEMNIFICATION. Each Investor promises each other Investor that he will pay, on demand, his proportionate share to one or more of the other Investors who have not recovered in proportion under the Note, but in no event shall the proportionate share of any Investor exceed the percentage amount of the proportionate share described above. The demand for payment made 54 by any Investor to any other Investor shall be made in writing, accompanied by proof of the demanding party's disproportionate loss. 3. CONTRIBUTION. The Investors, as holders of the notes, agree that the priorities of the security interest which secure their respective notes and their rights in and to the collateral shall be equal and that each shall share and be equal in priority and rights with the other. The Investors further agree that if any of them shall, through the exercise of any right of counterclaim, set-off or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then due with respect to all of the Notes held by such Investor and other amounts then due to such Investor under the Note Agreement (collectively, the "Aggregate Amounts Due" to such Investor), which is greater than the proportion received by the other Investor in respect to the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Investor, then the Investor receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (y) notify the other Investor of such receipt and (z) purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from the seller simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Investor so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by the Investors in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due them; provided that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Investor is thereafter recovered from such Investor, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price paid for such participation shall be returned to that Investor to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 4. LEGAL FEES, COSTS AND EXPENSES. A defaulting party will, on demand, indemnify and hold harmless the other party for and against all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including legal fees incurred by such other party by reason of enforcement and protection of its rights under this agreement. 5. TERMINATION UPON CONVERSION TO EQUITY. Upon conversion by an Investor of his investment into Series D of the Borrower, or any other equity investment of the Borrower permitted by separate agreement of all of the undersigned, that converting Investors rights and obligations under this agreement shall terminate. The proportionate share of remaining Investors shall be readjusted to reflect the withdrawal of any such converting Investors. 55 6. MISCELLANEOUS. This agreement may be executed in counterpart.
