INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
This Indemnification Agreement (the "AGREEMENT") is made as of November 15,
2005, by and between LXU Healthcare, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the
"COMPANY"), and Robert W. Fisher (the "INDEMNITEE").
RECITALS
The Company and Indemnitee recognize the increasing difficulty in obtaining
liability insurance for directors, non-voting observers on the Company's Board
of Directors ("non-voting observers"), officers and key employees, and the
significant increases in the cost of such insurance and the general reductions
in the coverage of such insurance. The Company and Indemnitee further recognize
the substantial increase in corporate litigation in general, subjecting
directors, non-voting observers, officers and key employees to expensive
litigation risks at the same time as the availability and coverage of liability
insurance has been severely limited. Indemnitee does not regard the current
protection available as adequate under the present circumstances, and Indemnitee
and agents of the Company may not be willing to continue to serve as agents of
the Company without additional protection. The Company desires to attract and
retain the services of highly qualified individuals, such as Indemnitee, and to
indemnify its directors, non-voting observers, officers and key employees so as
to provide them with the maximum protection permitted by law.
AGREEMENT
In consideration of the mutual promises made in this Agreement, and for
other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged,
the Company and Indemnitee hereby agree as follows:
1. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) THIRD PARTY PROCEEDINGS. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if
Indemnitee is or was a party or participant or is threatened to be made a party
to or participant in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that
Indemnitee is or was, or is or was alleged to be, a director, non-voting
observer, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any subsidiary of the
Company, by reason of any action or inaction, or alleged action or inaction, on
the part of Indemnitee while an officer, director or non-voting observer, or
while alleged to be an officer, director or non-voting observer, or by reason of
the fact that Indemnitee is or was, or is or was alleged to be, serving at the
request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement (if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) actually and reasonably incurred by
Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if Indemnitee
acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee's
conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by
judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or
its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did
not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be
in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe
that Indemnitee's conduct was unlawful.

(b) PROCEEDINGS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY. The Company shall
indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee was or is a party to or participant in, or is
threatened to be made a party to or participant in, any threatened, pending or
completed action or proceeding by or in the right of the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the
fact that Indemnitee is or was, or is or was alleged to be, a director,
non-voting observer, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any
subsidiary of the Company, by reason of any action or inaction, or alleged
action or inaction, on the part of Indemnitee while an officer, director or
non-voting observer, or while alleged to be an officer, director or non-voting
observer, or by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was, or is or was
alleged to be, serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
