InterDent, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("InterDent"), and InterDent Service Corporation, Inc., a Washington Corporation ("ISC") (collectively the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") on May 9, 2003. Since this date both corporations have continued to operate their businesses in the ordinary course as debtors-in-possession. On May 9, 2003, the United States Bankruptcy Court (the "Bankruptcy Court") entered an order authorizing the joint administration of the Debtors' Chapter 11 cases. Chapter 11 allows a debtor, and under some circumstances, creditors and others parties in interest, to propose a plan of reorganization. The Debtors in the instant Chapter 11 proceedings are the parties proposing the Debtors' Plan sent to you in the same envelope as this document. The Plan being proposed by the Debtors is a reorganizing Plan. Through this Plan, the Debtors seek to continue operating their business and to satisfy and discharge the claims of their creditors, on the terms provided for in the Plan. Although the Plan is being proposed jointly by the Debtors, the Debtors' respective Chapter 11 Estates remain legally separate under the Plan. Each Debtor is assuming liability under the Plan only for the claims properly chargeable to such Debtor, and for no others. THE DOCUMENT YOU ARE READING IS THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT FOR THE ENCLOSED PLAN. DDJCM and the LL Entities (each as defined below) are co-sponsors of the Plan (the "Co-Sponsors"). This means that these creditors have participated in the development of the Plan, and they have agreed to perform certain obligations in connection with the Plan, if the Plan is confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and certain other conditions are satisfied. The Co-Sponsors are not liable for any obligations being incurred under the Plan by the Debtors or for any other obligations of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors. This Disclosure Statement summarizes what is in the Plan, and tells you certain information relating to the Plan and the process the Bankruptcy Court follows in determining whether or not to confirm the Plan. READ THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT CAREFULLY IF YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT: ------------------------------------------------------------------ WHO CAN VOTE OR OBJECT TO THE PLAN HOW YOUR CLAIM IS TREATED HOW THIS TREATMENT COMPARES TO WHAT YOUR CLAIM WOULD RECEIVE IN LIQUIDATION THE HISTORY OF THE DEBTORS AND SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE BANKRUPTCY WHAT FACTORS THE BANKRUPTCY COURT WILL CONSIDER TO DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT TO CONFIRM THE PLAN WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF CONFIRMATION, AND WHETHER THE PLAN IS FEASIBLE. This Disclosure Statement cannot tell you everything about your rights. You should consider consulting your own lawyer to obtain more specific advice on how this Plan will affect you and your best course of action. Be sure to read the Plan as well as the Disclosure Statement. If there are any inconsistencies between the Plan and the Disclosure Statement, the Plan provisions will govern. The Bankruptcy Code requires a Disclosure Statement to contain "adequate information" concerning the Plan. On or about July 22, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Disclosure Statement, based upon a finding that this document contained "adequate information" to enable parties affected by the Plan to make an informed judgment regarding the Plan. Any party can now solicit votes for or against the Plan. II DEFINITIONS AND RULES OF INTERPRETATION 2.1 Definitions. The following defined terms are used in this document.

Excess Cash shall be subject to changes in working capital. The Reorganized Debtors shall continue to pay their vendors in their usual and customary manner, and shall not accelerate vendor payments as a means to reduce available cash on hand or Excess Cash. Given the Debtors' financial difficulties during the past several years, the Debtors have not had funds sufficient to make capital expenditures at customary levels. By reason thereof, there is a significant amount of deferred maintenance, and the Debtors anticipate that they will need to spend, after the Effective Date, substantially higher amounts for capital expenditures than in the recent past. Over the next several years, the Debtors expect to spend each year approximately 2% to 3% of their revenues for capital expenditures in part due to the limited expenditures made in prior years (.64% of revenues in 2002 and 1.31% of revenues in 2001), and then to continue to track the industry average of 2% of annual revenues for capital expenditures from that point forward.

IV BACKGROUND OF THE DEBTORS 4.1 Corporate Structure. ISC, a Washington corporation, is one of five affiliated corporations. In addition to ISC, this group includes InterDent, a Delaware corporation, Capitol Dental Care, Inc., an Oregon corporation ("Capitol Dental"), Managed Dental Care of Oregon, Inc., an Oregon corporation ("Managed Dental"), and Dedicated Dental Systems, Inc., a California corporation ("Dedicated Dental") (collectively, the "InterDent Group"). The only members of the InterDent Group that are Debtors in these Chapter 11 Cases are InterDent and ISC. In summary, InterDent serves as the overall holding company. InterDent owns all of the common stock of ISC. ISC is the primary operating entity. Pursuant to a number of dental group management agreements ("Management Agreements"), ISC provides substantially all of the management and administrative services needed by affiliated professional corporations ("Professional Corporations") which operate dental practices located in nine (9) states. ISC owns all of the common stock of Capitol Dental, Managed Dental and Dedicated Dental (collectively, "Affiliated Corporations"). InterDent's common stock is publicly traded on the OTC Bulletin Board (symbol: "Dent.ob"). Capitol Dental and Managed Dental are dental organizations that contract with the State of Oregon Office of Medical Assistance Program to provide care under the Oregon Health Plan. Capitol Dental and Managed Dental have no employees, and contract with dental care providers for the provision of dental care service to their members. ISC provides to Capitol Dental and Managed Dental all of the management and administrative services needed by them. Essentially, the only creditors of Capitol Dental and Managed Dental are the dental care providers with which they contract. Revenues for the year ending December 31, 2002 for Capitol Dental and Managed Dental were approximately $21.0 million and $11.0 million, respectively. Dedicated Dental was formed in 1985 as a licensed health maintenance organization under the California Knox-Keene Health Care Service Plan Act of 1975. Dedicated Dental delivers managed dental care services, through its dental practice offices, to private-pay individuals, subscriber groups, individuals covered by the State of California Denti-Cal program, and individuals covered under fee for service plans. Dedicated Dental has its own employees, and its own creditors. ISC provides to Dedicated Dental substantially all of the management and administrative services needed by Dedicated Dental. Revenues for the year ending December 31, 2002 for Dedicated Dental were approximately $17.0 million. InterDent and ISC each filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on May 9, 2003. InterDent and ISC continue to operate in the ordinary course as debtors-in-possession. The Affiliated Corporations are not in Chapter 11 proceedings. 4.2 Summary of Business Services. The InterDent Group provides comprehensive administrative, financial and operational management services to its affiliated dental practices. Through economies of scale, the InterDent Group is able to provide these services at a lower cost than could otherwise be obtained by any of the affiliated dental practices individually. The benefits to the InterDent Group's affiliated dentists are significant. The services provided by the InterDent Group enable dentists to substantially reduce the amount of time they would otherwise be required to devote to administrative matters, and consequently they are afforded more time to focus on patient care and the growth of their professional practices. 4.3 Overview of Operating Data; Related Facts. The InterDent Group is a leading provider of dental practice management services to multi-specialty dental practices in the United States. On a consolidated basis, the InterDent Group generated during 2002 approximately $250,000,000 in revenues, and it employs approximately two thousand one hundred (2,100) persons. InterDent's corporate headquarters are located in El Segundo, California, and its primary administrative facility in Southern California is located in Santa Ana, California. As of December 31, 2002, ISC provided management services to one hundred and thirty-seven (137) dental offices that collectively employ approximately five hundred and eighty-four (584) dentists, including one hundred and forty-four specialists (144), in nine (9) states. The InterDent Group's affiliated network of dental groups provides comprehensive, convenient and high quality general dentistry services and specialty services such as orthodontics, periodontics, endodontics, pedodontics, prosthodontics and oral surgery. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2002, revenues from capitated insurance plans and private pay sources accounted for 23% and 77%, respectively, of total revenues payable to the Professional Corporations. The business relationship between InterDent Group and the Professional Corporations is based upon the following model. The InterDent Group typically acquires the nonprofessional assets of the Professional Corporation's dental practice, including equipment and facilities, and enters into a long-term (typically 40 years) Management Agreement with the Professional Corporation. Under the terms of the Management Agreement, ISC is the exclusive administrator of all non-clinical aspects of the affiliated dental practice, such as billing, purchasing, accounting, staffing, patient scheduling and marketing for the dental practice, and ISC collects all revenues of the dental practice and uses such funds to pay the obligations of the dental practice. Under this business model, each Professional Corporation retains exclusive control over all professional aspects of the dental practice itself, including delivery of dental services to the Professional Corporation's patients. Dentists employed by the Professional Corporation typically enter into "evergreen" employment agreements which contain non-competition and non-solicitation provisions that survive the termination of the Management Agreement. As and for ISC's compensation for services provided under the Management Agreement, ISC receives a management fee typically equal to: (i) the reimbursement of ISC's expenses incurred in managing the dental practice; and (ii) a percentage of the dental practice's net revenues, as well as a potential performance bonus. Typically, the fee payable under this formula is approximately equal to the net profit of the affiliated dental practice. ISC's affiliation structure with the Professional Corporations allows dentists to: (i) focus on practicing dentistry by avoiding the burden of non-clinical administrative and management responsibilities; (ii) potentially improve their income by obtaining the increased efficiencies and other benefits provided by ISC's management services; and (iii) gain access to educational services and training programs provided by ISC. ISC's business relationship with Capitol Dental and Managed Dental is as follows. ISC employees provide to Capitol Dental and to Managed Dental all of the management and administrative services needed by Capitol Dental and Managed Dental in their operations. Capitol Dental and Managed Dental pay over to ISC, on a daily basis, all of their revenues. In turn, ISC pays to Capitol Dental and Managed Dental funds sufficient for them to pay their creditors, the dental care providers with which they contract to provide services to patients covered by the Oregon Health Plan. ISC's business relationship with Dedicated Dental is comparable to ISC's business relationship with the Professional Corporations. ISC provides to Dedicated Dental management and administrative services needed by Dedicated Dental in its operations. Pursuant to the administrative services agreement between ISC and Dedicated Dental, ISC maintains separate bank accounts for Dedicated Dental, it deposits into these accounts all of Dedicated Dental's revenues, and it pays Dedicated Dental's accrued operating expenses, including payroll, from these separate accounts. 4.4 Industry Overview. The U.S. dental industry is large and growing. The market for dental services was approximately $60 billion in 2000 and, according to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, is projected to reach $109 billion by the year 2010, representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 6.1%. The dental industry is also highly fragmented, with 75% of the industry comprised of dentists practicing in either one or two dentist offices, and only 6% of dentists practicing in groups of 10 or more. Because of their size and attendant limitations, most dental practices are run inefficiently without the benefit of professional management, economies of scale, adequate information systems and specialization of functions. In contrast to the physician practice management industry, the dental practice management industry offers several key differentiating factors: primarily fee-for-service revenue source; ability to manage exposure to capitation; absence of catastrophic risk; and ability to enhance revenue through advertising and brand management 4.5 Strategy. From 1996 - 2000, the InterDent Group's primary focus was expansion of its network through acquisitions, completing 45 transactions in 15 markets. While this strategy enabled the InterDent Group to become one of the largest dental practice management companies in the country, it resulted in a lack of focus on the implementation of the business model and an over-leveraged balance sheet. The Debtors' management believes that the InterDent Group's current focus on business model implementation and debt reduction will enable both the InterDent Group and its affiliated practices to generate even stronger growth in both revenue and profitability in the near future. The InterDent Group's long-term objective is to expand its leadership position in the dental practice management industry, primarily by building new "de novo" affiliated offices, achieving same store growth, and by continuing to improve the profitability of its operations. The InterDent Group will seek to achieve this objective by focusing its growth in its most promising existing geographic markets, the markets where it already has established locally prominent, multi-specialty dental delivery networks that provide high quality, cost-effective dental care. The key elements of the Debtors' business strategy and corresponding tactics are as follows:

During the past year, the Debtors believe they have made significant progress implementing the foregoing strategy and that this progress will materially improve operating results in the long term. 4.6 Summary of Selected Consolidated Financial Data. The following tables set forth selected historical financial data and other operating information for each of the fiscal years in the five-year period ended December 31, 2002.

The table below summarizes the InterDent Group's operating results for the first three months of calendar year 2003. ======================================================== Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 Total Revenue $59,037,000 Operating Expenses ($56,260,000) Operating Income3 $2,777,000 Non Operating Expenses Interest ($6,327,000) Other ($24,000) ($6,351,000) Net Loss ($3,574,000) ========================================================= Copies of the InterDent Group's consolidated income statement for the first quarter of 2003 are attached hereto as Exhibit "2" and are incorporated herein by this reference. 4.7 Summary of Overall Debt Structure. The following table summarizes the InterDent Group's capital structure as of March 31, 2002: ============================================================ March 31, 2003 Capital Structure Senior Credit Facility $81,831,000 Capital Leases $1,083,000 Total Secured Debt $82,914,000 Senior Subordinated Notes $43,467,000 Convertible Subordinated Notes $38,811,000 Seller Notes & Other Debt $18,184,000 Total Subordinated & Other Debt $100,462,000 Total Debt $183,376,000 ============================================================ As evidenced in the table above, the InterDent Group's (and prior management's) principal focus on acquisitions from 1996 - 2000 has resulted in an over-leveraged balance sheet (Total Debt / LTM EBITDA = 7.5x). 4.8 Description of Primary Debt Positions. The InterDent Group has three major debt arrangements. Each of these arrangements is discussed in the following subparagraphs. 4.8.1 Senior Secured Debt. InterDent and ISC are parties to two secured credit agreements which are collectively referred to herein as the Senior Credit Facility: That certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement Dated as of June 15, 1999 (the "1999 Credit Agreement") and that certain Credit Agreement Dated as of March 31, 2000 (the "2000 Credit Agreement"). ISC is the obligor under both of these loan agreements and InterDent is the guarantor. The proceeds of the 1999 Credit Agreement were used primarily to finance acquisitions. The proceeds of the 2000 Credit Agreement were used primarily for operations. As of the Petition Date, the outstanding balance on the 1999 Credit Agreement was approximately $75,000,000, and a balance of approximately $9,000,000 was outstanding under the terms of the 2000 Credit Agreement, for a total of approximately $84,000,000. Principal amounts owed under the Senior Secured Credit Agreements bear interest at LIBOR plus 7.50% or the prime rate plus 5.75%, at ISC's option. In addition to the cash interest charges outlined above, the Debtors are required to pay an incremental payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest on the outstanding principal balance of 1.0% from April 15, 2002 though March 31, 2003, increasing to 2.0% from April 1, 2003, through maturity. The incremental PIK interest is payable upon maturity. The Debtors also paid a PIK fee equal to 1.0% of the outstanding principal balance on April 15, 2002, 2.0% on October 1, 2002, and 3.0% on April 1, 2003. PIK fees are payable upon maturity. All of the obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreements are secured by a first priority lien against all personal property of ISC, including accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents. In April 2001, the Debtors entered into amendments to the Senior Secured Credit Agreements. These amendments modified certain covenants. In connection with the execution of the amendments, the Senior Secured Lenders waived the defaults under the Senior Secured Credit Agreements that existed at December 31, 2000 due to failure to meet certain financial ratio covenants and reset all covenants for 2001 and subsequent years. Additionally, the Senior Secured Lenders agreed to certain other changes including a revised term and provisions regarding asset sales and new financing. As consideration for these modifications, the Debtors agreed to an amendment fee of $1,000,000 which was paid during the three months ended June 30, 2001, and an additional fee of $1,000,000 payable at maturity of the term loan if certain conditions were not met. The additional fee was paid in connection with an additional amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Agreements consummated in April 2002, as discussed below. InterDent also issued warrants to the Senior Secured Lenders to purchase an aggregate of 166,667 shares of the InterDent's common stock at a strike price of $3.66 per share. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the InterDent Group recorded a charge of $3,886,000 for the write-off of certain prepaid debt costs related to previously entered into credit facility agreements, loan amendment fees, warrant issuance and associated professional fees incurred in connection with the execution of the amended Senior Secured Credit Agreements. On October 1, 2001, the indebtedness under the Senior Secured Credit Agreements was converted into a term loan, with required quarterly payments. On April 15, 2002, the Debtors entered into an amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Agreements. In connection with the execution of the amendment, the Senior Secured Lenders agreed, among other things, to reset certain covenants and reduce the required future quarterly principal payments of $7,214,000 which were to begin on October 1, 2001. In connection with these modifications, the Debtors accrued as principal the remaining $1,000,000 due as a result of the amendment in 2001 as discussed above, which is payable upon maturity. The Debtors also agreed to an additional amendment fee of $1,000,000 paid in cash of $500,000 and the remaining $500,000 accrued as principal, payable upon final maturity of the Senior Secured Credit Agreements on September 30, 2003. The entire outstanding Senior Secured Claims balance at March 31, 2003 of approximately $81,800,000 was included in the current portion of long-term debt and capital leases in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Debtors were obligated to make principal installments of $6,775,000 on April 1, 2003, and $7,214,000 on July 1, 2003. However, pursuant to the terms of an amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Agreements, the parties agreed that the April 1, 2003, payment obligation would be deferred in consideration for a payment of $500,000. The remaining balance is due at maturity on September 30, 2003. The Senior Secured Credit Agreements also have mandatory prepayment provisions for certain asset sale transactions and excess cash flows, as defined. These prepayment provisions are applied to future required quarterly installments. 4.8.2 Senior Subordinated Notes. In June 2000, the Debtors raised $36.5 million from the sale of debt and equity to LLCP, an LL Entity, under a securities purchase agreement. Through this transaction LLCP received, among other things, the Senior Subordinated Note, with an initial face value of $25.5 million, the right to appoint a person to the Board under specified conditions4, the right to observe the Board meetings, 458,333 shares of common stock, and a warrant allowing an LL Entity to purchase 354,167 shares of InterDent common stock at an initial price of $41.04 per share (which was subsequently reduced to $20.88 per share). The warrant, initially valued at $2.7 million, subsequently was written off. The entire principal of the Senior Subordinated Note is due September 2005, and the approximate balance owing under Senior Subordinated Note as of the Petition Date was $44,249,000. 4.8.3 Convertible Subordinated Notes. In 1998, InterDent issued $30.0 million of Convertible Subordinated Notes to various purchasers. The Convertible Subordinated Notes mature June 2006 and bear interest at 7.0%, payable semi-annually with an option to pay the interest in a PIK (paid-in-kind) note, which InterDent has exercised for payment of current interest amounts due. As a result of InterDent's election to pay the current interest due in a PIK note, the interest rate on the Convertible Notes has increased to 8.0%. In April 2001, InterDent entered into an amendment to the Convertible Subordinated Notes and the lenders waived the cross-default provision that existed at December 31, 2000, due to the covenant violations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreements and agreed to reset all covenants for 2001 and subsequent years, in addition to certain other modifications. As consideration for the amendment, the Debtors agreed to reduce the conversion price of the notes. The Convertible Subordinated Notes are convertible into shares of InterDent common stock at $39.00 for each share of common stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding principal and accrued, but unpaid interest on such Convertible Subordinated Notes and are automatically converted into common stock if the rolling 21-day average closing market price of the common stock on 20 out of any 30 consecutive trading days is more than $107.40. 4.9 Seller Notes and Other Unsecured Debt. Seller Notes and Other Unsecured Claims against the Debtors, excluding amounts that may be owed under contracts or leases to be assumed either prior to the Confirmation Date or under the Plan, but inclusive of known Disputed Claims, are estimated at between approximately $9.33 million and approximately $10.68 million dollars, in the aggregate. The four primary categories of Unsecured Claims (other than the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Convertible Subordinated Notes) are summarized as follows: A. Seller Note Claims. There are approximately $5.55 million in Unsecured Claims that are based upon Seller Notes. These Claims are treated as Class 4.1 Claims under the Plan. In summary, the facts relative to this category of Claims are as follows. The Debtors have preexisting contractual arrangements with a number of sellers of Dental Practices, and, in some instances, with individual dental practitioners ("Dental Practitioners") associated with the sellers of the Dental Practices to the Debtors. In each of these contractual arrangements, the Debtors acquired substantially all of the nonprofessional assets of the Dental Practices pursuant to an asset purchase agreement ("APA"). The purchase price for these assets was typically paid partially in cash and partially in the form of a Seller Note issued in favor of the seller of the Dental Practice, or based upon an "earn-out" payment arrangement. Concurrently with the execution of the APA, ISC and the seller of the Dental Practices entered into a long-term management agreement (the "Management Agreement"). Under the terms of the Management Agreement, ISC became the exclusive administrator of all non-clinical aspects of the Dental Practice, such as billing, purchasing, accounting, staffing, patient scheduling and marketing for the Dental Practice, and ISC was responsible for collecting all revenues of the Dental Practice and using such funds to pay the obligations of the Dental Practice. Under this model, each seller of the Dental Practice retained exclusive control over all professional aspects of the Dental Practice, including delivery of dental services to the patients of the Dental Practice. In some instances, the contractual arrangements entered into by and between the Debtors and the seller of the Dental Practice and the Dental Practitioner were more involved. In these latter transactions, the Debtors and the Dental Practitioner entered into an employment agreement and a non-compete agreement. The employment agreement and non-compete agreement were executed at the same time as the APA and the Management Agreement, and they include interrelated and mutually dependent performance provisions. For example, the employment agreements and the non-compete agreements typically provide that, if the Debtors fail to perform their obligations under the APA, including making all payments due on a Seller Note, the seller of the Dental Practice and the Dental Practitioner are released from performing their ongoing obligations under the terms of the employment agreement and the non-compete agreement. Of the approximately $5.55 million in Seller Note Claims, approximately $1.75 million will be removed from Class 4.1 when the Debtors assume the larger contractual arrangements of which the Seller Notes are an integral part. This will leave a total of approximately $3.8 million in Seller Note Claims within Class 4.1. The Debtors will not assume any contractual arrangements with respect to these $3.8 million in Seller Note Claims, and these Claims will obtain the treatment, as Class 4.1 Claims, set forth in Section 6.4 of the Plan. The Seller Note Claims in Class 4.1 are identified in Exhibits "5" and "6" hereto. The Debtors are also parties to employment and noncompetition agreements with two other dental groups: (i) Pacific Dental Services and Stephen E. Thorne, IV ("Pacific Dental") and (ii) Arthur G. Kaiser, DDS and Robert J. Newman, DDS ("Kaiser'). These contracts are executory and they are being assumed under the Plan. Accordingly the potential claims associated with these contractual agreements with Kaiser and Pacific Dental ($1.25 million and $1.8 million dollars respectively) will not participate in Class 4.1. B. Settled Amerident Claim. Prior to the Petition Date, Amerident filed various actions against the Debtors and their predecessor entities in the California Superior Court, County of Los Angeles. These actions are more fully discussed in Section 4.12 hereof. In June 2003, the Debtors and Amerident reached a preliminary agreement to settle their disputes by which the Debtors have agreed that Amerident will have an Allowed Unsecured Claim in the Cases in the amount of $5.0 million. This settlement remains subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors intend to file in July 2003 a motion to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval of this settlement. If this settlement is approved as the Debtors anticipate, this $5.0 million Unsecured Claim in favor of Amerident will be treated as a Class 4.2 Claim. C. Other Litigation Claims. As of the Petition Date, there were a number of actions pending against the Debtors in various forums, other than the Amerident litigation referenced above. All of these pending actions are currently stayed. Since these actions are still pending, it is impossible to quantify exactly the Debtors' exposure with respect thereto. However, based upon input from counsel and a careful analysis of the claims stated in these actions the Debtors have concluded that their exposure to adverse judgments in these actions ranges from a low of zero to a high, in the aggregate, of approximately $1.35 million. All of these Claims will be included within Class 4.1 to the extent that they are Allowed. D. Lease And Executory Contract Rejection Claims. The Debtors are in the process of finalizing their determination regarding which leases and executory contracts will be rejected by the Debtors. Based upon the Debtors' most up to date analysis, lease and executory contract rejection Claims will total approximately $530,000. This figure assumes that each landlord will file a Claim for 12 months' rent pursuant to Section 502(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code (or if less than 12 months is remaining on the lease then for the rent due for the remainder of the term), and does not provide for any reduction in these damage Claims based upon the landlords' mitigating their damages by seeking replacement tenants. These Claims will be included within Class 4.1 to the extent that they are Allowed. 4.10 Equity Ownership. InterDent is a public company. As of April 24, 2003 there were 3,963,331 common shares outstanding. Dr. Steven Matzkin, a former officer and Director of InterDent, through shares held either directly or through affiliated entities, is InterDent's largest shareholder with 863,817 common shares, or 21.5% of the total common shares outstanding. The LL Entities, a Co-Sponsor of the Plan, obtained approximately 19.9% of InterDent common stock and certain warrants in connection with the transaction pursuant to which they were issued the Senior Subordinated Notes. In addition to common stock, InterDent is authorized to issue 30,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. Presently authorized series of InterDent Preferred Stock include the following series: o Series A--100 shares authorized, issued and outstanding; o Series B--70,000 shares authorized, zero issued or outstanding; o Series C--100 shares authorized, zero shares issued or outstanding; and o Series D--2,000,000 shares authorized, 1,574,608 shares are issued and outstanding. InterDent's presently authorized Preferred Stock ranks senior to its outstanding common stock. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock were authorized in connection with issuance of the Convertible Subordinated Notes. The Series B Preferred Stock conversion provision of the Convertible Notes has expired. Accordingly, although the Series B Preferred Stock is authorized, InterDent does not expect any such shares ever to be issued. Similarly, 100 shares of Series C Preferred Stock were authorized and issued in connection with the Convertible Subordinated Note issuance, but then converted into 10 shares of common stock. InterDent does not expect any shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be issued. The shares of Series D Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of InterDent Common Stock at the rate of one-sixth of a share of Common Stock for each share of Series D Preferred Stock (assuming there are no declared but unpaid dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock), in each case subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and similar anti-dilution provisions. The Series D Preferred Stock holders are entitled to vote on all matters as to which the common shareholders are entitled to vote, based upon the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series D Preferred Stock are convertible. The Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible. The holder is entitled to elect a director, but the stock is otherwise non-voting. 4.11 Management of The Debtors.

In addition to serving on Gruma's management committee, Mr. Hill was responsible for numerous financial and planning functions including managing the company's external relationships with the financial community. Prior to Gruma, Mr. Hill held various positions at ARCO and AmSouth Bank. 4.11.4 Paul Keckley, Ph.D. Dr. Keckley has been a director of InterDent since March 12, 1999. Prior to that time, Dr. Keckley was a director of Gentle Dental Service Corporation beginning in December 1996. Since 1999, Dr. Keckley has been President and CEO of EBM Solutions, Inc., a clinical decision support company based in Nashville, Tennessee. From 1994 to 1999, Dr. Keckley was Vice President Strategic Development at PhyCor, Inc. Dr. Keckley previously served as a director of PhyCor, Inc., and from 1985 to 1994 he was President of The Keckley Group, a market research and strategic planning firm for hospitals, health systems, medical practices and health maintenance organizations. 4.11.5 Gerald Aaron, D.D.S. Dr. Aaron is a Board certified Pediatric Dentist. Dr. Aaron has been employed by one of InterDent's affiliated dental practices, Gentle Dental of Oregon, P.C. since 1991. Dr. Aaron was appointed a member of the Board of Directors of InterDent in October 2001 and is Chair of the InterDent Dental Advisory Board. Prior to joining Gentle Dental, Dr. Aaron achieved the rank of Colonel in the United States Army and was the consultant to the Office of the Surgeon General of the Army on Pediatric Dentistry from 1987-1991. In accordance with the requirements of the Office of the United States Trustee, in May 2003, the Debtors served their Notices of Setting Insider Compensation, pursuant to which the Debtors sought approval for the payment of compensation to the Debtors' insiders. Based thereon since the Petition Date, the Debtors have paid to their insiders compensation in accordance with the following table:

The foregoing compensation structure is currently in place for such officers and, as of the date of the filing of this Disclosure Statement, and this structure will remain in place as of the Effective Date except as noted below. The Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to modify the terms of the compensation payable to its officers and directors based upon performance and other factors, and subject to any applicable employment agreements with these officers and directors. The Debtors' officers will participate in a new retention bonus program after the Effective Date (this program will supersede the retention bonus program now in place for Mr. Chhina and Mr. Hill that is referenced above). This new retention bonus program was developed to compensate these officers and other senior managers for their effort and support during the Debtors' Cases, and to induce them to continue working toward the implementation of the Debtors' overall business reorganization plan. In addition, the Debtors' entire senior management team, including the individuals referenced hereinabove, will have options to purchase approximately 5% in the aggregate of Reorganized InterDent's New Class C Common Stock on a fully diluted basis. 4.12..... Pre-Petition Legal Proceedings. In October 2000, Amerident filed an action in California Superior Court, County of Los Angeles (Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. BC238706) against InterDent, and Gentle Dental Management Inc. ("GDMI").5 In this action, Amerident alleged claims for breach of contract and promissory fraud arising from Amerident's July 21, 1999 sale to InterDent and GDMI of substantially all of the assets of ten dental practices in California and Nevada. In this action, Amerident seeks compensatory damages in excess of $7,500,000, plus punitive damages and attorneys' fees/costs. This action has since been consolidated with an action filed in September 2000 (Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. BC237600), wherein InterDent alleged claims against Amerident for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, intentional misrepresentation, and negligent misrepresentation. In January 2001, Amerident filed a second action against InterDent and GDMI for breach of a promissory note and related common counts (Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. 243664). This action was similarly consolidated with Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. BC237600 (collectively, the "Amerident Actions"). The Amerident Actions present exposure to compensatory damages, pre-judgment interest and recoverable litigation expenses in the $10 million to $12 million dollar range excluding any punitive damages. An attempted pre-discovery mediation failed. Discovery in both actions has been completed. The three consolidated actions proceeded to a five week jury trial, which ended in a mistrial in July 2002. A second mediation was held in March 2003, but this effort also failed. A retrial was set to commence on May 19, 2003, but this was stayed by reason of the Debtors' Chapter 11 filings. The Debtors deny Amerident's allegations. In October 2001, Amerident filed a third action against InterDent, GDMI, Gentle Dental Service Corporation in California Superior Court, County of Los Angeles (Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. BC260811) and seven individual defendants (all present or former directors and/or officers of the Debtors or their predecessor-in-interest) alleging several claims arising from the individuals' receipt of certain loans from GDMI, including a fraudulent transfer claim. Only the fraudulent transfer claim survived two demurrers. This action is referred to herein as the "Amerident Fraudulent Transfer Action." In this complaint, Amerident seeks damages exceeding $11 million dollars plus punitive damages. The Amerident Fraudulent Transfer Action has been deemed related to the Amerident Actions, but it has not been consolidated with them. No trial date has been set in the Amerident Fraudulent Transfer Action. The Debtors, as well as the individual defendants, have denied Amerident's allegations. Since the Petition Date, the Debtors' representatives and Amerident's representatives have engaged in negotiations to settle the Amerident Actions and the Amerident Fraudulent Transfer Action. The Debtors and Amerident have reached preliminary agreement regarding the terms for the settlement of these actions. Pursuant to such settlement, Amerident will be given an allowed Class 4.2 Claim in the amount of $5.0 million, and will obtain certain recoveries from insurance coverage applicable to these actions. The Debtors anticipate that they will file, in July 2003, a motion to obtain approval of such settlement pursuant to Rule 9019 of the Bankruptcy Rules. The Debtors believe that the proposed settlement of Amerident's claims against the Debtors will not have a material adverse effect on the Debtors' ability to make the distributions to Creditors required by the Plan, and will facilitate the Debtors' reorganization by eliminating a very substantial Disputed Claim, the litigation of which would be both expensive and time-consuming. The InterDent Group has also been named as a defendant in a number of pending lawsuits in the normal course of business, primarily for malpractice claims. All or substantially all of these actions are covered by insurance. The Claims in six (6) actions are covered, in part, by insurance but are subject to significant deductibles. All of these pending actions are currently stayed. Based upon input from counsel and a careful analysis of the merits of the Claims stated in these actions, the Debtors have concluded that their exposure to adverse judgments in these actions ranges from a low of zero in the aggregate to a high of approximately $1.350 million in the aggregate. The Debtors' management believes that these Claims will have no materially adverse effect on the InterDent Group's ability to implement the Plan, because, once these Claims are liquidated, they will either be converted to equity or will be paid through the cash dividend option provided for in Section 6.4.1 of the Plan. V THE CHAPTER 11 CASES 5.1 Events Leading to Chapter 11 Filing. The Debtors' primary focus during the period 1996 through 2000 was the expansion of their network through acquisitions. During this time frame, the Debtors completed forty-five transactions in fifteen markets. While this strategy enabled the Debtors to become one of the largest dental practice management firms in the country within an abbreviated time frame, there were two adverse side effects of such strategy. First, the acquisition effort consumed substantial management time and financial resources. This allocation of resources delayed the implementation of the Debtors' business model, and, more importantly, the anticipated development of efficiencies through this model and the consequent improvement of margins. Second, the acquisitions resulted in an over-leveraged balance sheet. The Debtors have joint obligations to their Senior Secured Lenders in amounts that they cannot feasibly service on a going-forward basis or retire when such obligations become due. In an effort to address these problems, the Debtors refocused their efforts on the implementation of their business model and on the reduction of their debt. Over the past year and a half, these efforts have been successful. Despite a very challenging economic climate, the InterDent Group's consolidated operating performance improved from an operating loss of approximately $4.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, to operating income of over $17.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002.6 This turnaround was the result of an intense focus on improving operational efficiency, more fully integrating the Debtors' many acquisitions, and developing a culture of communication, teamwork and accountability throughout the Debtors' organization. In May 2001, the Debtors engaged the national turnaround consulting firm, Alix Partners (formerly Jay Alix and Associates) to identify several areas of needed improvement in the Debtors' operations. In September 2001, InterDent replaced its then CEO with Wayne Posey, an individual with more than 30 years experience in managing businesses in the medical field, to lead the turnaround of the Debtors and to financially restructure the Debtors. In October 2001, InterDent hired Ivar Chhina, as Special Assistant to the CEO (Mr. Chhina now serves as the COO of InterDent), in order to lead the various performance improvement efforts. Since about October 2001, the Debtors have divested or closed twelve (12) unprofitable offices, significantly reduced overhead staff count, consolidated central business offices, reduced purchasing costs by standardizing supplies across the company into an online formulary, significantly consolidated the number of vendors, renegotiated higher reimbursement rates from payors, and made solid progress improving almost all of its previously underperforming regions. The Debtors have also strengthened considerably its management team, replacing two of the three Operations Vice Presidents, one-third of the fifteen (15) Regional Managers, and approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of the Debtors' 137 Office Managers. The Debtors have also succeeded in reversing what was a key negative trend, by reducing annual turnover of affiliated dentists from a high of almost fifty percent (50%) in 2001 to only thirty-four percent (34%) in 2002. Additionally, in early 2002, the Debtors engaged the national financial restructuring investment banking firm, Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin, to assist them in either attracting new equity investment, or negotiating an internal financial restructuring agreement with the Debtors' existing debt holders. These efforts have been successful. Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors reached agreements with their Senior Secured Lenders and the Holders of their Senior Subordinated Notes regarding the restructure of the Debtors' secured and major unsecured obligations. The Debtors' Chapter 11 Cases were filed to provide the Debtors the necessary breathing spell and the legal means to implement the agreed upon debt recapitalization, and to enable the Debtors to reach accommodations with their other creditors, and to move forward with the implementation of their business plan. The overall objective of this effort is to maximize the value of the InterDent Group business enterprise as a payment source for creditors. 5.2 Debtor-in Possession Status. Since the Petition Date, the Debtors have continued to operate as debtors-in-possession subject to the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors are authorized to operate their business in the ordinary course of business. Transactions outside the ordinary course of business must be approved by the Bankruptcy Court. 5.3 The Automatic Stay. Upon the filing of the petition, an automatic stay was imposed pursuant to section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code. Subject to certain statutorily defined exceptions, this stay enjoins the commencement or continuation of all collection efforts by creditors, the enforcement of Liens against property of the Debtors, and the continuation of litigation against the Debtors. The automatic stay will remain in effect until the earliest of the entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court lifting or modifying the stay, the Effective Date of the Plan, or the closing of the Cases. 5.4 Entry of First Day Orders. On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed several motions seeking the relief provided by what are commonly referred to as "first day orders." The relief granted in the first day orders enabled the Debtors to transition into their Chapter 11 Cases without any material disruption of their business operations. These orders generally grant relief that falls outside the ordinary course of business, or that otherwise requires a court order. The more important first day orders in this case granted the following relief: A. Authorization to use cash collateral (cash and cash equivalents of the Debtors that are subject to liens in favor of third parties) to pay ordinary course business expenses ; B. Interim approval of $3,000,000 of the $7,500,000 loan amount provided for in the DIP Facility to provide additional operating capital during the Cases, and authority to secure this new financing with a first priority lien against all assets of the Estates (on July 10, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court granted final approval for the $7,500,000 DIP Facility); C. Authorization to pay the pre-petition wages and benefits of the Debtors' employees; D. Authorization to operate and pay trade pre-petition vendor claims in the ordinary course, as deemed necessary by ISC ("Ordinary Course Expenses Motion"); E. Authorization to retain certain pre-petition bank accounts that would otherwise have to be closed immediately after the Petition Date. The use of cash collateral and the DIP Facility were approved on an interim basis at the initial hearings on these motions held on May 12, 2003. The Bankruptcy Court granted final approval for such relief at final hearings thereon held on July 10, 2003. On May 16, 2003, the Debtors filed that certain Motion For Order Approving Plan Sponsor Protections And Fees (the "Protections Motion"). By the Protections Motion, the Debtors sought an order granting certain protections and fees to the Co-Sponsors, including the following: 1. Authorization to pay DDJCM the sum of $500,000, and to pay the LL Entities the sum of $333,333, as a transaction fee, upon the confirmation of the Plan in exchange for their sponsorship of the Plan and DIP Facility, and to reimburse these parties for their reasonable out of pocket costs, including, without limitation, the reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in this process; and 2. Authorization to pay to each of the Co-Sponsors a "break-up fee" of $1,000,000 (a total of $2,000,000), plus their reasonable out of pocket costs, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, upon (a) the confirmation of any other plan of reorganization than the Plan, or (b) the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Debtors under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. The hearing on the Protections Motion was held on July 8, 2003. At that hearing, the Bankruptcy Court denied the Protections Motion, without prejudice to the Debtors' and the Co-Sponsors' seeking approval of the transaction fees requested by the Protections Motion (i.e., an aggregate of $833,000) in connection with the confirmation of the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, the Debtors and the Co-Sponsors seek approval of such transaction fees. 5.5 Actual and Projected Recovery of Preferential or Fraudulent Transfers. The Debtors have analyzed their books and records and have determined that no payment made to insiders within the one-year period prior to the Petition Date constitutes a preferential transfer pursuant to section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code, and that no payment made to insiders constitutes a fraudulence transfer pursuant to section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors have not analyzed their books and records in sufficient detail to determine whether transfers made by the Debtors are avoidable as fraudulent transfers under sections 544(b) or 548 of the Bankruptcy Code. Similarly, the Debtors have not conducted an analysis of payments made to non-insider creditors within the ninety-day period preceding the Petition Date to determine whether or not any of these payments constitute preferential transfers under section 547. The Debtors anticipate that they will conduct this analysis within the next sixty days. To the extent that any payments to creditors (whether insiders or non-insiders) appear to be legally recoverable under these sections or any other section of the Bankruptcy Code, and the recovery effort would be cost-effective, the Debtors reserve the right pursuant to the Plan to take whatever actions are necessary to recover such transfers. It should be noted that, with regard to preferential transfer claims, approximately 99% of the Allowed Claims asserted against the Debtors' Estates, including the Allowed Amount of Unsecured Claims asserted by trade creditors, will be paid in full pursuant to the Ordinary Course Expenses Motion or the Plan, or otherwise paid on terms satisfactory to the holders of the Allowed Claims. Accordingly, the Debtors believe that few, if any, claims to avoid preferential transfers will be pursued by the Debtors. Moreover, pursuant to Section 6.4.1.A of the Plan, any and all preferential transfer claims against Class 4.1 claimants will be released, provided that Class 4.1 accepts the Plan. With regard to fraudulent transfer claims, pursuant to section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have standing to file actions to set aside "fraudulent transfers" made within one year of the Petition Date. Pursuant to section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have standing to file such actions on the basis of similar statutes under state law. Under most state law fraudulent transfer statutes, the Debtors have the right to avoid fraudulent transfers made within four years of the transfer date. In summary, a fraudulent transfer is a transfer of property that was made for less than reasonably equivalent value, and either that was made while the transferor was insolvent or that rendered the transferor insolvent. JPMorgan Partners LLC ("JPMP"), a Convertible Subordinated Noteholder, asserts that there may exist potential fraudulent transfer claims arising from the Debtors' acquisition of dental practices ("Dental Practices"). JPMP asserts that, the Debtors may not have received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the purchase payments that the Debtors made to the sellers of the Dental Practices, and that, at the time when the Debtors made such payments, the Debtors may have been insolvent, or rendered insolvent or left with unreasonably small capital as a result of such payments. Based thereon, JPMP asserts that the Debtors' payments to the sellers of Dental Practices may be subject to challenge as fraudulent conveyances under Sections 544(b) and 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and are recoverable under Section 550 of the Bankruptcy Code. JPMP has stated that may make demand upon the Debtors and/or the Committee to pursue any such fraudulent transfer claims against the sellers of Dental Practices, and that, if the Debtors and the Committee decline to do so, JPMP may seek from the Bankruptcy Court authority to pursue such claims on behalf of the Estates.7 The Debtors do not believe that any of these acquisition transactions is a potentially avoidable fraudulent transfer. Each of these acquisition transactions was based upon a comprehensive due diligence effort regarding the assets being acquired and relationships being entered into, the potential for upside growth in the particular community where the practice was located, and the individual characteristics of the dentists that would be servicing over an extended time period the patients of the Dental Practices. The terms of each deal were the result of a bargained for exchange between two parties seeking the most favorable pricing. In summary, each transaction was a market driven exchange, and the purchase price paid in each instance was the Debtors' best estimate of what the assets being acquired were worth to the Debtors at that particular point in time, Moreover, at the time when the Debtors entered into these acquisition transactions, they believed they had the financial means to pay the debt service associated with the obligations being incurred to complete the acquisitions. Given these facts, the Debtors do not believe that any of the acquisition transactions entered into with the sellers of the Dental Practices within the past four years are avoidable based upon either state or federal law. Accordingly, the Debtors will not be taking any action to set aside these transactions or any payments made pursuant thereto. During the period from May 8, 1999 through August 31, 2000, the last date on which the Debtors acquired a Dental Practice, the Debtors acquired sixty-four (64) Dental Practices, paying for such Dental Practices a total of approximately $35.8 million in cash, and an aggregate of $30.8 million in earn-out payments and payments on Seller Notes. Therefore, the Debtors paid within, the four-year "reach back" period, a total sum of approximately $66.6 million on account of the Debtors' acquisitions of Dental Practices. The Debtors believe strongly that pursuing fraudulent transfer claims against the sellers of the Dental Practices is not in the best interests of the Debtors or the Debtors' creditors. The Debtors' position in this regard is based, in part, upon the following: A. The Debtors question the merits of any fraudulent transfer claims against the sellers of the Dental Practices. First, the Debtors believe that the Debtors were solvent at the time when each acquisition of a Dental Practice was consummated by the Debtors. Second, as set forth hereinabove, based upon the best information available to the Debtors at the time when such acquisition transactions were consummated, the Debtors believe that they paid reasonably equivalent value for the Dental Practices. The Debtors believe, therefore, that the chance for success in any such fraudulent transfer litigation is unlikely, since there would have to be established both insolvency and a lack of reasonable equivalency in the acquisitions. B. Pursuing fraudulent transfer claims to avoid 64 acquisitions of Dental Practices would undoubtedly prove to be extraordinarily expensive. It is not unreasonable to believe that the Debtors would incur several millions of dollars in legal fees and other professional fees in pursuing such claims. The Debtors believe that expending such sums, with the chance of success in such litigation being unlikely, is not cost effective. C. Pursuing fraudulent transfer claims to avoid 64 acquisitions of Dental Practices would require substantial involvement of the Debtors' management and would divert the Debtors' management from implementing the Debtors' reorganization, to the detriment of the Debtors and the Debtors' creditors. D. Pursuing fraudulent transfer claims against the sellers of the Dental Practices, eleven (11) of whom are dentists still actively involved in the operations of the Debtors' business, would prove to be highly disruptive to the Debtors' operations. The Debtors' management believes strongly that pursuing such claims would lead to defections by key dentists, a tremendous loss in revenues, and would cause substantial and perhaps irreparable damage to the Debtors' business. The Debtors believe that, if such litigation were pursued, the Debtors' viability as an ongoing enterprise would be imperiled and that a liquidation would likely ensue, to the detriment of the Debtors and the Debtors' creditors. Based thereon, the Debtors believe that pursuing fraudulent transfer claims against sellers of Dental Practices is not in the best interests of Creditors, and, accordingly, the Debtors do not intend to pursue such claims. 5.6 Projected Objections to Claims Filed Against the Estates. The Debtors have conducted a preliminary review of the Claims filed in the Cases. Based upon this preliminary review, the Debtors anticipate that they will file objections to a number of Claims. However, since this review process is not complete and management resources are being focused primarily upon the reorganization of the Debtors, the Debtors anticipate that some of these objections will not be filed for at least another sixty days. Pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Plan, if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, the Committee will have standing from and after the Confirmation Date to object to Disputed Class 4.1 Claims. VI SUMMARY OF THE PLAN OF REORGANIZATION 6.1 What Creditors and Interest Holders Will Receive Under The Proposed Plan. As required by the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan places Claims and Interests into various Classes according to their respective legal rights and priorities. The Plan states whether each Class of Claims or Interests is impaired or unimpaired. Most importantly, the Plan specifies the treatment each Class will receive thereunder. 6.2 Unclassified Claims. Certain types of claims are not placed into Classes by the Plan. They remain unclassified under the Plan. They are not considered impaired and they do not vote on the Plan, because they are automatically entitled to receive certain treatment specified in the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, the Debtors have not placed the following claims in a Class. 6.2.1 Administrative Claims. Administrative Claims are Claims for the expenses of administering the Debtors' Chapter 11 Cases that are allowed under Bankruptcy Code section 507(a)(1). The Bankruptcy Code requires that all Administrative Claims be paid on the Effective Date of the Plan, unless a particular claimant agrees to a different treatment. With the exception of professional fee claims, the Debtors are paying, within thirty (30) to forty-five (45) days of invoice, all of the Administrative Claims of vendors providing goods and services to the Debtors. Accordingly, no significant arrearage will be owed to the vendors providing goods and services to the Debtors after the Petition Date and the Administrative Claims of these Creditors will continue to be paid in the ordinary course, within stated credit terms. Payment of fees and costs incurred by Professionals employed by the Estates (attorneys, accountants, real estate brokers, etc.) is subject to certain requirements imposed by the Bankruptcy Code. Such fees and costs can be paid only pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court, after notice and a hearing. In these Cases, the Professionals have applied to the Bankruptcy Court for authority for the Debtors to pay monthly, on an interim basis, the Administrative Claims for fees and costs incurred by the Professionals, subject to review in connection with final fee applications. The Debtors intend to pay any final Allowed Administrative Claims of Professionals promptly after approval of such Claims. A. DIP Facility Claims. On the Effective Date, the DIP Facility Claims shall be paid in full out of the proceeds of the Exit Facility or cash on hand. B. Other Administrative Claims. a. Payment Generally. Except to the extent that the Holder of an Allowed Administrative Claim agrees to a different treatment, and subject to the bar dates for Administrative Claims described in Sections 6.2.1(B)(b)(i) and 6.2.1(B)(b)(ii) hereof, the Distribution Agent shall pay each Allowed Administrative Claim in full, in Cash, on the latest of the following dates: (i) the Effective Date, (ii) within ten (10) Business Days after the date such Administrative Claim becomes an Allowed Administrative Claim, or (iii) the date such Allowed Administrative Claim becomes due according to its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Allowed Administrative Claim representing obligations incurred in the ordinary course of post-petition business by the Debtors-in-Possession (including without limitation post-petition trade obligations and routine post-petition payroll obligations) shall be paid in full or performed by the Reorganized Debtors in the ordinary course of business, in accordance with the terms of the particular obligation. b. Administrative Claims Bar Date. (i) General Administrative Claims Bar Date. All applications for final compensation of Professionals for services rendered or reimbursement of expenses incurred on or before the Effective Date and all other requests for payment of Administrative Claims incurred before the Effective Date under sections 507(a)(1) or 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (except only for (i) post-petition, ordinary course trade obligations and routine post-petition payroll obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the Debtors' post-petition business, for which no bar date shall apply, and (ii) post-petition tax obligations, for which the bar date described in Section 6.2.1(B)(b)(ii) hereof shall apply) shall be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon the Reorganized Debtors and the Co-Sponsors no later than sixty (60) days after the Effective Date (the "General Administrative Claims Bar Date"), unless such date is extended by the Bankruptcy Court after notice to the Reorganized Debtors and the Co-Sponsors. Any such request for payment of an Administrative Claim that is subject to the General Administrative Claims Bar Date and that is not filed and served on or before the Administrative Claims Bar Date shall be forever barred; any party that seeks payment of Administrative Claims that (y) is required to file a request for payment of such Administrative Claims and (z) does not file such a request by the deadline established in the Plan therefor shall be forever barred from asserting such Administrative Claims against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their Estates, or any of their property. (ii) Administrative Tax Claims Bar Date. All requests for payment of Administrative Claims by a governmental unit for Taxes (and for interest and/or penalties related to such Taxes) for any tax year or period, all or any portion of which occurs or falls within the period from and including the Petition Date through and including the Effective Date ("Tax Administrative Claims") for which no bar date has otherwise previously been established, must be filed and served on the Reorganized Debtors and the Co-Sponsors on or before the later of (i) sixty (60) days following the Effective Date; and (ii) 180 days following the filing of the tax return for such Taxes for such tax year or period with the applicable governmental unit. Any Holder of any Tax Administrative Claims that is required to file a request for payment of such taxes and does not file and properly serve such a request by the applicable bar date shall be forever barred from asserting any such Tax Administrative Claims against the Debtors, Reorganized Debtors, their Estates, or their property. The Debtors project that, as of the Effective Date, the Debtors will owe approximately $5.1 million in Administrative Claims, exclusive of Administrative Claims of vendors which the Debtors will pay in the ordinary course of business in accordance with stated credit terms applicable thereto. The Debtors project that, as of the Effective Date, they will have approximately $2.8 million in cash and approximately $7.5 million in availability on their Exit Facility to pay such Claims. 6.2.2 Tax Claims. Tax claims are certain unsecured income, employment and other taxes described by Bankruptcy Code Section 507(a)(8). The Bankruptcy Code requires that each holder of such a Section 507(a)(8) Tax Claim receive the present value of such Tax Claim in deferred cash payments, over a period not exceeding six (6) years from the date of the assessment of such tax. At the election of the Debtors, the holder of each Allowed Tax Claim shall be entitled to receive on account of such Claim, (i) equal cash payments on the last Business Day of each three-month period following the Effective Date, during a period not to exceed six years after the assessment of the Tax on which such Claim is based, totaling the principal amount of such Claim plus simple interest on any outstanding balance from the Effective Date calculated at the interest rate available on ninety (90) day United States Treasuries on the Effective Date, (ii) such other treatment agreed to by the holder of the Allowed Tax Claim and the Debtors (or the Reorganized Debtors), provided such treatment is on more favorable terms to the Debtors (or the Reorganized Debtors after the Effective Date) than the treatment set forth in clause (i) hereof, or (iii) payment of the full Allowed Priority Tax Claim in Cash. The Debtors believe that there will be no material amount of Allowed Tax Claims in the Cases. 6.3 Classification of Claims And Interests. The Plan classifies the Claims of Creditors and Interest Holders into nine (9) separate Classes (some of which include subclasses) based upon their particular legal characteristics, rights and priorities. Secured Claims are Claims secured by Liens on property of the Estates. The table below lists each Class of Secured Claim(s), and claimants within each Class and whether or not each class is impaired or unimpaired under the terms of the Plan:

Certain Priority Claims that are referred to in Bankruptcy Code Sections 507(a)(3), (4), (5), (6), and (7) (which exclude Tax Claims) are required to be placed in Classes and are classified in Class 3. These types of Claims are entitled to priority treatment. The Bankruptcy Code requires that each holder of such a Claim receive cash on the Effective Date equal to the allowed amount of such Claim. However, a Class of unsecured Priority Claim Holders may vote to accept deferred cash payments of a value, as of the Effective Date, equal to the allowed amount of such Claims. Allowed Priority Claims have been placed in Class 3 by the Plan. All Allowed Priority Claims shall be paid in full on the Effective Date pursuant to the Plan. Unsecured Claims are unsecured, non-administrative Claims that are not entitled to priority under Bankruptcy Code section 507(a). The Plan places the Unsecured Claims against the Estates in one of four Classes. The table below lists each class of Unsecured Claims, describes the Claims in the Class and specifies whether the Class is impaired or unimpaired under the Plan:

The Plan classifies Interests in the Debtors in one of three Classes based upon their different rights and priorities. The table below lists each Class, describes the Interests in each Class, and specifies whether the Class is impaired or unimpaired under the terms of the Plan:

6.4 Summary Of Treatment Of Claims And Interests Under The Plan. The following is a summary of the classification and treatment of the principal pre-petition Claims and Interests under the Plan. In this summary, the Debtors have also estimated the amount of Claims that will ultimately become Allowed Claims in each Class of Claims, based upon a review by the Debtors of all Claims scheduled by the Debtors, consideration of the provisions of the Plan that affect the allowance of certain Claims, and a general estimate of the amount by which Allowed Claims may ultimately exceed the amount of Claims scheduled by the Debtors. 6.4.1 Treatment of Class 1.1 -- Bank Lenders (including DDJCM Post-Petition Senior Secured Claims). As of the Effective Date, the Allowed Amount of the Bank Lenders' Senior Secured Claims (including, without limitation, the DDJCM Post-Petition Senior Secured Claims), in the aggregate, will be approximately $38,000,000. In accordance with the provisions of Section 6.1.1 of the Plan, the Allowed Secured Claim of each Class 1.1 claimant shall be paid in full over a period of three (3) years from the Effective Date subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the New Credit Agreement, which shall include, among other things, terms substantially similar to the following: A. Interest Rate. From and after the Effective Date, the Restructured Senior Secured Claims (exclusive of post-Effective Date interest, fees and charges not yet due) shall bear interest at two and one-half percentage points (2.5%) over the prime rate of interest announced from time to time by the agent bank under the New Credit Agreement, as such may be reported by The Wall Street Journal, or, at the option of the Reorganized Debtors, four percentage points (4%) in excess of the sixth-month LIBOR rate announced from time to time by the agent bank under the New Credit Agreement, as such may be reported by The Wall Street Journal; B. Application of Proceeds of Exercise of Class 6 Warrants. If, and to the extent that, any Holder of Convertible Subordinated Notes in Class 6 exercises its right(s) under the Class 6 Warrants to acquire shares of New Class C Common Stock (as provided for in Section 6.6 of the Plan), the Reorganized Debtors shall pay the cash proceeds from any such exercise to the Holders of the Restructured Senior Secured Claims; and, in the event that any Class 6 Warrants are exercised, the Reorganized Debtors shall also make a one-time payment of $500,000 to the Holders of the Restructured Senior Secured Claims.

In accordance with the provisions of Section 6.1.1.F of the Plan, the Class 1.1 claimants shall receive Excess Cash Payments on the Excess Cash Payment Dates, and these additional payments shall be applied against the principal balances owed on the Restructured Senior Secured Claims; F. Discount of PIK Fee for Early Payment of Restructured Senior Secured Claims. If the Restructured Senior Secured Claims are paid in full on or before certain payoff dates, the accrued PIK Fees that are included in the Restructured Senior Secured Claims shall be discounted and waived based upon the percentages set forth in Section 6.1.1.G of the Plan; G. Maturity Date. The Restructured Senior Secured Claims shall be paid in full, subject to the PIK Fee discounts for earlier payment, on or before the third anniversary date of the Effective Date; and H. Lien Rights. The Restructured Senior Secured Claims shall continue to be secured by a first priority Lien on all assets of the Reorganized Debtors after the Effective Date, which shall rank pari passu with the first priority Lien granted to secure the Exit Facility. 6.4.2 Treatment of Class 1.2 -- Senior Secured Claim of DDJCM Entities (Other Than DDJCM Post-Petition Senior Secured Claims. As of the Effective Date, the Allowed Amount of the Class 1.2 claimant's Senior Secured Claim will be approximately $38,000,000. Under the Plan, DDJCM shall receive shares of New Class A Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference equal to the sum of: (a) the principal amount of the Senior Secured Claims held by the DDJCM Entities as of the Petition Date (which excludes the DDJCM Post-Petition Senior Secured Claims) and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon as of the Petition Date; (b) all accrued and unpaid interest on the Senior Secured Claims held by the DDJCM Entities as of the Petition Date, from the Petition Date through the Effective Date, at the non-default contract rate; (c) all accrued and unpaid PIK Fees on or included in the Senior Secured Claims held by the DDJCM Entities as of the Petition Date; and (d) accumulated and unpaid dividends on the New Preferred Stock issued to DDJCM.

B. New Warrants. All of the New Warrants. 6.4.4 Treatment of Classes 2.1 - 2.18 -- Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claims and Other Allowed Secured Claims. As of the Effective Date, Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claims will total approximately $1,100,000. Each Holder of an Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claim and of any Allowed Secured Claims not otherwise classified ("Other Allowed Secured Claim") shall be treated as follows under the terms of the Plan, at the election of the Debtors: A. Option 1. The Allowed Secured Claim shall be paid in full through forty eight (48) equal monthly installments of principal equal to the claimant's Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claim or Other Allowed Secured Claim, plus interest, calculated at the rate of two and one half percentage points (2.5%) over the prime rate of interest as published in the Wall Street Journal on the Effective Date, in full satisfaction of such Claim, but may be prepaid at any time without penalty or other charge. The claimant's Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claim or Other Allowed Secured Claim shall continue to be secured by the claimant's existing Lien on its collateral. Upon full satisfaction of the claimant's Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claim or Other Allowed Secured Claim, the claimant's Lien on the associated collateral shall be released and the applicable Debtor shall retain title to such collateral free and clear of all Liens, claims and encumbrances. Any Allowed Deficiency Claim of the claimant shall be treated as an Allowed Class 4 Claim. B. Option 2. The claimant's collateral shall be returned to the claimant on the Effective Date in full satisfaction of such claimant's Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claim or Other Allowed Secured Claim. Any Allowed Deficiency Claim of the claimant shall be treated as an Allowed Class 4 Claim. C. Option 3. The legal, equitable and contractual rights to which the Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claim or Other Allowed Secured Claim entitles the Holder shall be left unaltered. D. Option 4. Notwithstanding any contractual provision or applicable law that entitles the Holder of the Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claim or Allowed Other Secured Claim to demand or receive accelerated payment of such Claim after the occurrence of a default: (i) any such default shall be cured, other than a default of a kind specified in section 365(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) the maturity of such claim shall be reinstated as such maturity existed before such default; (iii) the Holder of such Claim shall be compensated for any damages incurred as a result of any reasonable reliance by such Holder on such contractual provision or such applicable law; and (iv) the legal, equitable or contractual rights to which such Claim entitles the Holder of such Claim shall not otherwise be altered. E. Option 5. The Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claim or Other Allowed Secured Claim shall be paid in Cash on the Effective Date. The foregoing treatment shall be in full satisfaction of the Class 2 claimants' Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claims and any Other Allowed Secured Claims. 6.4.5 Treatment of Class 3 Claims -- Allowed Priority Claims. The Debtors estimate that the Allowed Priority Claims will total less than $100,000 as of the Effective Date. Under the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Priority Claim in Class 3 shall be paid (a) the full amount of such Allowed Priority Claim in Cash on the latest of (i) the Effective Date, (ii) the date on which such Claim becomes an Allowed Priority Claim, or (iii) the date on which such Allowed Priority Claim becomes payable in accordance with the terms governing such Allowed Priority Claim, or (b) upon such other less favorable terms as may be agreed to by such Holder and the Reorganized Debtors. 6.4.6 Treatment of Class 4 -- Allowed Unsecured Claims Other than Senior Subordinated Notes and Convertible Subordinated Notes. A. Class 4.1 - Allowed Unsecured Claims Not Classified in Class 5 or Class 6 Other Than The Claim of Amerident. Class 4.1 consists of all Allowed Unsecured Claims which are not classified in Class 5 or Class 6, other than the Claim of Amerident. The Debtors estimate that Allowed Class 4.1 Claims will total between approximately $4.33 million and approximately $5.68 million dollars on the Effective Date. A summary of the anticipated Claims that will be encompassed within Class 4.1 appears in Exhibit "5" attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. The treatment of Class 4.1 Claims under the Plan is as follows. Under the Plan, if and only if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Class 4.1 Claim shall receive, on account of and in full satisfaction of such Holder's Allowed Class 4.1 Claim, Cash in an amount equal to such Holder's Pro Rata share of the Class 4.1 Distribution Amount. Such distribution shall be paid to Class 4.1 claimants on the later of: (i) thirty (30) days following the Effective Date; and (ii) with respect to Disputed Class 4.1 Claims, the Distribution Date provided by Section 10.2 of the Plan. The Debtors estimate that this payment constitutes an approximately 16% to 21% distribution on account of each Allowed Class 4.1 Claim. Since the Plan is a "pot plan," the recovery by Class 4.1 claimants will be affected by the amount of Class 4.1 Claims ultimately Allowed against the Debtors. If the amount of Class 4.1 Claims Allowed by the Bankruptcy Court exceeds the Debtors' estimate of such Claims set forth hereinabove, the percentage recovery by Class 4.1 claimants will be less than the estimated percentage recovery set forth herein (i.e., there is no guaranteed percentage recovery by Class 4.1 claimants). In addition to the foregoing, pursuant to Section 6.4.1.A of the Plan, if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, the Debtors will release each Holder of an Allowed Class 4.1 Claim from any and all claims under section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code, effective as of the Effective Date. If and only if Class 4.1 rejects the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Class 4.1 Claim shall receive shares of New Class C Common Stock in lieu of the Cash payment described hereinabove. The Holders of Class 4.1 Claims shall share, Pro Rata, in the Initial New Common Stock Issuance with the Holders of the Allowed Class 5 Claims. The New Class C Common Stock which will be distributed to the Class 4.1 claimants shall be subject to certain transfer restrictions contained in the New Shareholders' Agreement and the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation. B. Class 4.2 - Allowed Unsecured Claims of Amerident. Class 4.2 consists of all Allowed Unsecured Claims of Amerident. The Holder of the Class 4.2 Claim shall receive Cash in the amount of $500,000 within five (5) Business Days following the Effective Date on account of and in full satisfaction of such Holder's Class 4.2 Claim. 6.4.7 Treatment of Class 5 Claim -- Senior Subordinated Notes. As of the Effective Date, the Allowed Amount of the claims held by the Senior Subordinated Note Holders will be approximately $44,200,000. Under the Plan, if and only if Class 4.1 rejects the Plan, the Holder of the Allowed Class 5 Claim shall receive that number of shares of New Class C Common Stock which remains after deducting the number of shares of New Class C Common Stock issued to the Holders of Allowed Class 4.1 Claims from the Initial New Common Stock Issuance under Section 6.4.1.A of the Plan. If and only if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, the Holder of the Allowed Class 5 Claim shall receive 100% of the Initial New Common Stock Issuance. 6.4.8. Treatment of Class 6 Claim -- Convertible Subordinated Notes. As of the Effective Date, the Allowed Amount of the Claims held by the Convertible Subordinated Note Holders will be approximately $39,000,000. If Class 6 votes to accept the Plan, then the Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims who are Qualified Holders shall receive, on a Pro Rata basis among them, Class 6 Warrants enabling them to purchase, in the aggregate, such number of shares of New Class C Common Stock as would constitute, when added to the Initial New Common Stock Issuance, three percent of the sum of the New Class C Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all Class 6 Warrants and the Initial New Common Stock Issuance. Each Class 6 Warrant may be exercised immediately following the Effective Date and must be exercised (and shall expire) no later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Date and shall entitle the holder to purchase one share of New Class C Common Stock at a strike price equal to the Warrant Exercise Price. The foregoing treatment shall be in full satisfaction of all Allowed Class 6 claims. If Class 6 does not accept the Plan, the Holders of Class 6 claims shall receive nothing under the Plan. Except for the distribution of any Class 6 Warrants as provided herein, the Convertible Subordinated Note Holders shall receive no distribution on account of their Claims by reason of their contractual subordination provided, in part, to the Holders of the Class 1 Claims and Class 5 Claims. 6.4.9. Treatment of Class 7 Interests -- Existing Preferred Stock. The Interests of the Class 7 Interest Holders shall be extinguished under the Plan, and the Holders of Class 7 Interests shall not receive or retain any property on account of such Interests. 6.4.10. Treatment of Class 8 Interests -- Existing InterDent Common Stock. The Interests of the Class 8 Interest Holders shall be extinguished under the Plan, and the Holders of Class 8 Interests shall not receive or retain any property on account of such Interests. 6.4.11. Treatment of Class 9 Interest -- ISC Common Stock. Class 9 is comprised of the Interests of InterDent as the holder of all of the common stock of ISC. Although the Holders of Class 9 Interests shall not receive or retain any property on account of such Interests, Reorganized InterDent shall retain all of the common stock of ISC under the Plan, in part, in consideration for the consent of the DDJCM Entities and the LL Entities to the termination under the Plan of the Claims and Liens which they hold against ISC under the Senior Secured Credit Agreements, in their capacities as the Holders of Senior Secured Claims. (DDJCM and the LL Entities also shall receive additional consideration under the Plan for their Liens, Claims, the DIP Facility, the Exit Facility and their participation in the formulation of the Plan, as more fully set forth in various Sections of this Plan, including, without limitation, Sections 4.1.1, 6.1.2, 6.1.3, 6.5 and 8.12, 9.2.2 and Article XIII. of the Plan.) VII MEANS OF IMPLEMENTATION 7.1 Introduction. This section is intended to explain the means through which the Debtors intend to effectuate the recapitalization and reorganization provided for under the Plan, and it addresses how the Debtors intend to fund the obligations to Creditors undertaken in the Plan. It provides information regarding prospective corporate governance, funding sources for Plan obligations, the new equity interests being issued pursuant to the Plan, and other material issues bearing upon the performance of the Plan. 7.2 The Reorganized Debtors. Each of the Debtors shall, as Reorganized Debtor, continue to exist after the Effective Date of a Plan as a separate legal entity, with all of the powers of a corporation under the laws of their respective states of incorporation, and without prejudice to any right to alter or terminate such existence (whether by merger, acquisition, or otherwise) under such applicable state law. Each Reorganized Debtor shall continue to have all corporate powers and rights accorded to the same under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, its Amended and Restated Articles or Certificate of Incorporation and its Amended and Restated By-Laws. 7.3 Issuance of New Plan Securities. On the Effective Date, Reorganized InterDent shall be deemed to have authorized the issuance of the New Common Stock, the New Preferred Stock, the New Warrants and the Class 6 Warrants, each in accordance with the Plan, consistent with the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation for Reorganized InterDent and the other Plan Documents. All shares of New Common Stock and New Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Plan, and all New Class C Common Stock issued upon the exercise of the New Warrants and the Class 6 Warrants, will be, upon such issuance, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The charts below summarize the ownership structure of the Reorganized Debtors after the issuance of all stock provided for in the Plan: Class 4.1 ACCEPTS (No Stock):

Class 4.1 REJECTS (Stock Only):

7.4 Amended and Restated Articles or Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. As of the Effective Date, the Articles of Incorporation of Reorganized ISC shall be the Amended and Restated ISC Articles of Incorporation, and the Certificate of Incorporation of Reorganized InterDent shall be the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation, substantially in the form of the Exhibits to the Plan Documentary Supplement. The Amended and Restated Articles or Certificate of Incorporation of each Reorganized Debtor will, among other provisions, prohibit the issuance of non-voting equity securities to the extent required by section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code. As of the Effective Date, the bylaws of each of the Reorganized Debtors shall be the Amended and Restated Bylaws substantially in the form of the exemplary documents included as an Exhibit to the Plan Documentary Supplement. The Amended and Restated Articles or Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws of each Reorganized Debtor shall be deemed effective as of the Effective Date by virtue of the Confirmation Order, without the need for any corporate, director or stockholder action. 7.5 Management/Board of Directors. On the Effective Date, the operation of the Reorganized Debtors shall become the general responsibility of the Reorganized Debtors' newly constituted Boards of Directors (the "New Boards"), who shall thereafter have the responsibility for the management and control of the Reorganized Debtors. As of the Effective Date, the New Boards shall consist of five (5) members. Three (3) of these members shall be appointed by DDJCM and two (2) of these members shall be appointed by an LL Entity, each of whom will be identified in the Plan Documentary Supplement. After the Effective Date, subject to any applicable employment agreements with officers of the Reorganized Debtors, the New Boards of the Reorganized Debtors will have the right to determine, in their sole and absolute discretion, all issues pertaining to the retention, hiring and compensation of the Reorganized Debtors' management. The Co-Sponsors have agreed that, after payment of the Allowed Claims of the Class 4 claimants as of the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors will pay to nine (9) members of the Reorganized Debtors' management team an aggregate of approximately $1.09 million in retention bonuses, in part, as and for compensation for management's commitment to remain with the Reorganized Debtors after the Petition Date and to direct the Reorganized Debtors' successful reorganization. A recipient of such retention bonus will have the option to obtain stock in the Reorganized Debtors in lieu of receiving all or a portion of his retention bonus in Cash, as follows: The option must be exercised with five (5) days after the Effective Date. The option exercise price per share will be 90% of the implied per share price derived from using a total enterprise value for the Reorganized Debtors of $110 million, making appropriate reductions for indebtedness of the Reorganized Debtors of the type deducted in determining the Strike Price Value. Any recipient of the retention bonus who elects to exercise the option to receive stock in the Reorganized Debtors in lieu of receiving all or a potion of the retention bonus in Cash, will receive an income tax gross up as to that portion of the retention bonus not received in Cash and used instead to exercise the option, and as to cover any income taxes to be paid by the executive on such income tax gross up. As of the Effective Date, the Debtors' employment agreements with H. Wayne Posey and Ivar Chhina will be rejected. The Co-Sponsors and Mr. Posey and Mr. Chhina have agreed upon the terms of employment agreements which will become effective as of the Effective Date. 7.6 Election of Future Directors. With respect to future elections of directors to the Board of Directors of Reorganized InterDent, the holders of the New Class A Preferred Stock and the holders of the New Class A Common Stock, voting together as a class, will be entitled to nominate three members of the Board of Directors to stand for election and the holders of the New Class B Preferred Stock and the holders of the New Class B Common Stock, voting together as a class, will be entitled to nominate two members of the Board of Directors to stand for election. No other nominees will be accepted. Holders of New Preferred Stock and New Common Stock will vote together as one class with respect to the election of directors for the Board of Directors of Reorganized Interdent; provided, that holders of New Preferred Stock, New Class A Common Stock and New Class B Common Stock will be entitled to the additional per share voting rights set forth in the Plan and the Amended and Restated Interdent Certificate of Incorporation. Election of directors to the Board of Directors of Reorganized ISC will be by majority vote of the entire Board of Directors of Reorganized InterDent. A director may be removed from office only by the persons or holders of the class(s) of shares that nominated such director, and any vacancy, however created, in the Board of Directors may be filled only by the persons or holders of the class(s) of shares that nominated the previous incumbent of such vacancy. 7.7 Initial Senior Officers. The initial senior officers of each of the Reorganized Debtors as of the Effective Date shall include Wayne Posey, Chief Executive Officer, and Ivar Chhina, Chief Operating Officer. These officers will be employed after the Effective Date pursuant to new employment agreements the terms of which have been agreed upon by the Co-Sponsors and these officers. A summary of the material compensation terms of Mr. Posey and Mr. Chhina is set forth in Section 4.11 hereof. 7.8 Revesting of Assets. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, on the Effective Date, all property of the Estates of the Debtors (including all rights of action held by such Estates, but excluding property that has been abandoned pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court) will revest in each of the Debtors whose Estates owned such property or interest in property immediately prior to the Effective Date. 7.9 Cancellation of Existing Securities and Agreements. On the Effective Date, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan, (a) all existing Interests and any note, bond, indenture, or other instrument or document evidencing or creating any indebtedness or obligation of or ownership interest in the Debtors, including, without limitation, the Existing InterDent Common Stock, the Existing Preferred Stock, the Senior Secured Credit Agreements, the Senior Subordinated Note Agreement, the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Convertible Subordinated Note Agreement, and the Convertible Subordinated Notes, will be cancelled, and (b) the obligations of, Claims against, and/or Interests in the Debtors under, relating, or pertaining to any agreements, indentures, certificates of designation, bylaws, or certificate or articles of incorporation or similar documents governing existing Interests and any note, bond, indenture, or other instrument or document evidencing or creating any indebtedness or obligation of the Debtors, as the case may be, including, without limitation, the Existing InterDent Common Stock, the Existing Preferred Stock, the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, the Senior Subordinated Note Agreements, the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Convertible Subordinated Note Agreement, and the Convertible Subordinated Notes, will be released and discharged. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.9 to the contrary, any subordination provisions contained in any note, bond, indenture, agreement, instrument or other document that is subject to cancellation under Section 8.8 of the Plan shall remain in full force and effect to the extent (and only to the extent) provided in Section 6.1.1.N of the Plan, as if the subject note, bond, indenture, agreement, instrument or document had not been cancelled under Section 8.8 of the Plan. 7.10 Issuance of New Class A Preferred Stock And The Issuance of The New Class B Preferred Stock. On the Effective Date, the New Class A Preferred Stock shall be issued to DDJCM, and the New Class B Preferred Stock shall be issued to an LL Entity as provided in the Plan. 7.11 Issuance of New Common Stock/Transfer Restriction/Forced Sale. On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable, New Class C Common Stock comprising the Initial New Common Stock Issuance will be issued to the Holders of Allowed Class 5 Claims and, if Class 4.1 rejects the Plan, to the Holders of Allowed Class 4.1 Claims, in accordance with the provisions, of Section 6.4.1.B and 6.5 of the Plan, subject to an appropriate reserve for Disputed Claims in Class 4.1. The holders of New Class C Common Stock, the New Warrants, the Class 6 Warrants, and any other warrants, options or other securities exercisable or convertible into shares of New Class C Common Stock (collectively, "New Class C Equity Securities"), shall be automatically bound, without the need of any further action by such holders, the Reorganized Debtors or any other party, by the terms, provisions and conditions of the New Shareholders' Agreement. As more specifically set forth in the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation and the New Shareholders' Agreement, subject to certain exceptions, holders of New Class C Equity Securities may not, without the consent of Reorganized InterDent, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, lien, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of in any other manner (collectively, a "Transfer," and any holder of New Class C Equity Securities who proposes to make a Transfer being a "Transferor") all or any part of or any interest in such securities now or hereafter owned or held by a Transferor to any person ("Transferee") unless (i) the Transferee is an Affiliate of such holder and the Transferor Transfers all of the New Class C Equity Securities held by the Transferor to the Affiliate and the Affiliate agrees in writing to by bound by the provisions of the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation and the New Shareholders' Agreement or (ii) the Transfer is in the nature of a bona fide pledge, lien, or encumbrance of or against all of the shares of New Class C Equity Securities owned by such holder in favor of a Transferee if the Transferee is a federally insured banking institution or other national financial institution and such Transferee in writing agrees to by bound by the provisions of the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation and the New Shareholders' Agreement. Any other Transfer by a Transferor will require the written consent of Reorganized InterDent, and such consent may not be given if, as reflected on the books of Reorganized InterDent, at the time of the proposed Transfer, and after giving effect to the proposed Transfer, the number of existing record holders of New Interdent Securities is more than the number of record holders of New Interdent Securities that existed on the Effective Date; provided that any proposed Transfer will be subject, as more specifically set forth in the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation and the New Shareholders' Agreement, to rights of first offer and first refusal in favor of the holders of the New Preferred Stock on a pro rata basis. As more specifically set forth in the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation and the New Shareholders' Agreement, holders of New Class C Common Stock and New Warrants are required to sell their shares in certain circumstances. In the event that the holders of the New Class A Preferred Stock and New Class A Common Stock elect ("Proposing Shareholders") to sell all of their shares to an unrelated, third party on an arms-length basis, then all holders of New Class C Common Stock and New Warrants (the "Remaining Shareholders") shall be required, if so demanded by the Proposing Shareholders, to sell all of their shares and warrants in Reorganized InterDent to such third party at the same price and upon the same terms and conditions as the Proposing Shareholders. 7.12 Issuance of New Warrants and Class 6 Warrants. On the Effective Date: (i) the New Warrants will be issued to an LL Entity in accordance with the Plan; and (ii) if Class 6 accepts the Plan, the Class 6 Warrants will be deemed to have been issued to the Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims who are Qualified Investors in accordance with the Plan. The Class 6 Warrants that are issued under the Plan must be exercised, if at all, within five (5) Business Days following the Effective Date. 7.13 Management Stock Options. The Debtors will be issuing stock options to various members of management as part of their compensation packages. These stock options will enable these individuals to acquire up to a total of five percent (5%) of the fully diluted New Common Stock, after the Effective Date, on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 7.5 hereof. 7.14 Section 1145 Exemption For New Common Stock And Warrants. The New Articles of Incorporation will contain restrictions on the transfer of New InterDent Securities even if such transfer is not restricted by applicable securities laws. Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code exempts the offer and sale of securities under a plan of reorganization from registration under section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") and state laws if three principal requirements are satisfied: (i) the securities must be offered and sold under a plan of reorganization and must be securities of the debtor, of an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or of a successor to the debtor under the plan; (ii) the recipients of the securities must hold pre-petition or administrative expense claims against the debtor or interests in the debtor; and (iii) the securities must be issued entirely in exchange for the recipient's claim against or interest in the debtor, or principally in exchange for such claims or interests and partly for cash or property. Except as noted below, the Debtors believe that the issuance of the New Preferred Stock, the New Common Stock, the New Warrants and the Class 6 Warrants in exchange for the claims of the Creditors receiving these securities, satisfies the requirements of section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code and therefore should be exempt from registration under the Securities Act and state securities laws, but will be subject to certain transfer restrictions. The New InterDent Securities should be exempt from registration under federal and state securities laws, unless the holder is an "underwriter" with respect to such securities. Section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code defines four types of "underwriters": A. Persons who purchase a claim against, an interest in, or a claim for an administrative expense against the debtor with a view to distributing any security received in exchange for such claim or interest; B. Persons who offer to sell securities offered under a plan for the holders of such securities; C. Persons who offer to buy such securities from the holders of such securities, if the offer to buy is: (1) with a view to distributing such securities; and (2) under an agreement made in connection with the plan, the consummation of the plan, or with the offer or sale of securities under the plan; or D. A person who is an "issuer" with respect to the securities as the term "issuer" is defined in section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Under section 2(11) of the Securities Act, an "issuer" includes any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by the issuer, or any person under direct or indirect common control of the issuer. To the extent that Persons who receive New Common Stock pursuant to the Plan are deemed to be "underwriters," resale by such persons would not be exempted by section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code from registration under the Securities Act or other applicable law. Persons deemed to be underwriters would, however, be permitted to sell such New Common Stock or other securities without registration pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, subject to the transfer restrictions in the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation and/or New Shareholders' Agreement. These rules permit the public sale of securities received by "underwriters" if current information regarding the issuer is publicly available and if volume limitations and certain other conditions are met, but such sales will be restricted in this case by the Amended and Restated InterDent Certificate of Incorporation and/or New Shareholders' Agreement. Moreover the Debtors do not presently intend to make the necessary current financial information needed to satisfy Rule 144 publicly available. Whether or not any particular person would be deemed to be an "underwriter" with respect to the New Common Stock or other security to be issued pursuant to the Plan would depend upon various facts and circumstances applicable to that person. Accordingly, the Debtors express no view as to whether any particular Person receiving New Common Stock or other securities under the Plan would be an "underwriter" with respect to such New Common Stock or other securities. Given the complex and subjective nature of the question of whether a particular Holder may be an underwriter, the Debtors make no representation concerning the right of any person to trade in the New Common Stock or other securities. The Debtors recommend that potential recipients of the New Common Stock or other securities consult their own counsel concerning whether they may freely trade New Common Stock or other securities without compliance with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. 7.15 Illiquidity of New Common Stock, New Warrants And Class 6 Warrants. All Creditors receiving New Common Stock, New Warrants or Class 6 Warrants under the Plan are advised that the Debtors have not agreed to register any of these securities with the Securities And Exchange Commission, or to otherwise take any action that would create a public market for these securities, or that would enable the holders to sell these securities on any recognized securities market. Moreover, all Creditors receiving New Common Stock or the right to acquire New Common Stock are advised that these securities are inherently illiquid, because of the conversion rights accorded the holders of New Class A Preferred Stock and the New Class B Preferred Stock. In particular, the holders of New Class A Preferred Stock have the right to convert their shares into New Class A Common Stock and the holders of the New Class B Preferred Stock have the right to convert their shares into New Class B Common Stock. If all these conversions rights are exercised the holders of the New Class A Preferred Stock and the New Class B Preferred Stock will hold shares equal to 73.8% of all New Common Stock (New Class A Common Stock, New Class B Common Stock and New Class C Common Stock together), prior to the exercise of any New Warrants or management options. Moreover, even prior to the exercise of these conversion rights, the holders of New Class A Preferred Stock and the New Class B Preferred Stock shall have the same voting rights as if they owned 73.8% of the New Common Stock giving them effective control of the Debtors. 7.16 Exit Facility. On the Effective Date, the DIP Facility will be replaced by the Exit Facility under which the Reorganized Debtors will be the borrowers, the salient terms of which are as follows: A. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the financial terms of the Exit Facility (including covenants) will be similar to those applicable to the Restructured Senior Secured Claims under the New Credit Agreement. B. Except as may be permitted under Section 8.12.I of the Plan (in the event the Bank Lenders fund the Exit Facility and use a fee as part of their "all in" pricing of 12%), there are to be no fees charged with respect to the Exit Facility other than the termination fee of 2.5% of the commitment amount as provided for in the DIP Facility. C. The commitment under the Exit Facility shall be $7.5 million, and any amounts drawn under the DIP Facility as of the Confirmation Date shall be repaid from, and deemed drawn under, the Exit Facility, with the balance of the $7.5 million commitment available for borrowing under the Exit Facility, subject to a borrowing base. D. The maturity date of the Exit Facility shall be a date later than the maturity date for the repayment of the Restructured Senior Secured Claims under the New Credit Agreement; however, during its term, the Exit Facility will function as a revolving credit facility, which will be repaid from time-to-time and re-borrowed as needed by the Reorganized Debtors. E. The indebtedness under the Exit Facility shall be secured by, and share pari passu in, the collateral which secures the repayment of the Restructured Senior Secured Claims under the New Credit Agreement. F. Mandatory repayment of the obligations under the Exit Facility and New Credit Agreement shall be required under each in amounts equal to a pro rata share, based on the amount then outstanding under the Exit Facility and the New Credit Agreement, respectively, of an amount equal to the amount by which the sum of the following amounts exceeds $3 million in any calendar year: (i) the net sale proceeds from all asset sales other than sales in the ordinary course of business, (ii) insurance and condemnation proceeds received by the Reorganized Debtors, and (iii) other proceeds of or from collateral not received in the ordinary course of business. Such repayments will permanently reduce the commitment under the Exit Facility. With respect to the New Credit Agreement, such repayments will be applied in the inverse order of maturity such that proceeds are applied against the back end of the loan payments. G. There will be no prepayment penalties or other like terms which would hinder the refinancing of the Exit Facility. H. The interest rate under the Exit Facility shall not exceed 12% per annum. I. The DIP Lenders shall provide and be the lenders under the Exit Facility; provided, however, that the Bank Lenders shall have the option to fund the Exit Facility (an option exercisable in the Bank Lenders' sole and absolute discretion) with pricing at 12% per annum "all in," and in the event the Bank Lenders agree to fund the Exit Facility on terms no more onerous than those set forth herein, the DIP Lenders will waive the termination fee equal to 2.5% of the commitment under the DIP Facility. By giving written notice to the Debtors and the DIP Lenders, the Bank Lenders shall exercise their option to fund the Exit Facility no less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of the confirmation hearing, provided that the Debtors have delivered to the Bank Lenders the necessary information for the Bank Lenders to make an informed decision in a reasonable amount of time prior to the date of the confirmation hearing. 7.17 New Shareholder Agreement. On the Effective Date, Reorganized InterDent, and the holders of all of the New InterDent Securities, will be required to execute and deliver the New Shareholders Agreement, and will be, or will be deemed to be, bound by the terms, provisions and conditions thereof. 7.18 Committee. If Class 4.1 accepts the Plan and is to receive Cash pursuant to Section 6.4.1.A of the Plan, the Committee shall continue in existence following the Effective Date for the sole and limited purpose of objecting to, and otherwise resolving, Disputed Class 4.1 Claims, and shall have the right to settle and compromise the Allowed Amount of Disputed Class 4.1 Claims without further order of the Bankruptcy Court. The fees and expenses incurred by the Committee in resolving Disputed Class 4.1 Claims shall be paid exclusively from the sources described in Section 10.2.3 of the Plan. At such time as the Allowed Amount of all Allowed Class 4.1 Claims has been determined, and there are no Disputed Class 4.1 Claims that could become Allowed Class 4.1 Claims, the Committee shall dissolve automatically. If Class 4.1 rejects the Plan, and will not receive any Cash under the Plan, then effective on the Effective Date, the Committee shall dissolve automatically. Upon the dissolution of the Committee in accordance with any of the preceding provisions, its members, Professionals and agents shall be released from any further duties and responsibilities in the Chapter 11 Cases and under the Bankruptcy Code, except with respect to the obligation of its Professionals to file final fee applications. 7.19 Risks. The Debtors' ability to successfully perform their obligations under the terms of the Plan is dependent upon the success of future operations. As with any business enterprise, the Debtors' business faces an array of risks including, but not limited to, competition, potentially adverse changes in economic conditions, and potentially adverse changes in the regulatory environment. ALTHOUGH THE DEBTORS HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE MERITS OF THE PLAN AND THEIR ABILITY TO ACHIEVE THE RESULTS PROJECTED IN THE PROJECTIONS WHICH ACCOMPANY THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT, THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT THE DEBTORS WILL IN FACT ACHIEVE THESE OBJECTIVES. ACCORDINGLY, ALL CREDITORS SHOULD CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISKS: A. The Debtors receive fees for services provided to affiliated dental practices under management agreements and, except as permitted by applicable law, the Debtors do not generally directly employ dentists or control the professional dental aspects of the practices which require a license to practice dentistry. The Debtors' profitability is dependent on the revenue and expenses of the affiliated dental practices. Any material loss of revenue or increase in the expenses of the affiliated dental practices could have a material adverse effect on the revenues projected in the accompanying financial projections. B. The Debtors' operating strategy is to increase profitability by maximizing each patient's use of the Debtors' affiliated dental practices through extended hours of operation and the addition of general dentists, specialists, hygienists and dental assistants. Accordingly, the Debtors' financial success is dependent, in part, upon their ability to continue to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified dentists, specialists, hygienists and dental assistants. No assurance can be given that the Debtors will be able to continue to attract qualified dentists, specialists and clinical staff at acceptable compensation levels, or at all. Failure to appropriately staff affiliated dental practices could have an adverse effect on the Debtors' business, financial condition and results of operations. C. The Debtors believe that their future success is dependent in part upon their ability to attract and retain qualified management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense and the Debtors will compete with numerous other employers, some of which may have greater financial and other resources. There can be no assurance that the Debtors will be successful in continuing to attract and retain such personnel. D. The Debtors compete with other dental practice management companies seeking to affiliate with dental practices in the highly competitive dental industry. The Debtors are aware of a number of competitors specializing in the business of providing comprehensive management services to dental practices and there are other companies with substantial resources that may decide to enter the industry. There can be no assurance that the Debtors will be able to continue to successfully retain existing dental practices or to add additional practices to their network. E. The market for general and specialty dental services is highly fragmented and is characterized by large numbers of individual practitioners and small group practices competing for individual patients. Competition for the provision of dental services is highly competitive in the markets in which the Debtors' combined network of affiliated dental practices operate and often includes practitioners who have established practices and reputations. There can be no assurance that the Debtors' combined network of affiliated dental practices will continue to be able to compete effectively in the markets they serve, and an inability to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Debtors' business, financial condition and results of operations. F. A significant portion of the payment for services rendered by the Debtors' affiliated Dental Practices is paid by private insurance programs. There is, and has been in recent years, an ongoing effort by third-party and governmental payors to contain and reduce health care and dental care costs, and impose lower reimbursement rates on health care providers. Such initiatives may result in a reduction in per-patient and per-procedure revenue from historic levels. In the event that third-party payors are successful in obtaining lower rates for specified services, the Debtors' results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Additionally, contracts between third-party and governmental payors and the Debtors' affiliated dental practices typically are short-term arrangements, having terms of one year or less. Substantially all of these agreements also allow the third-party or governmental payor to cancel the agreement prior to expiration of its term. Cancellation or failure to renew or extend one or more material payor agreements could materially and adversely affect the Debtors' business, financial condition and results of operations. G. Managed care arrangements typically shift some of the economic risk of providing patient care from the person who pays for the care to the provider of the care by capping fees, requiring reduced fees, or paying a set fee per patient irrespective of the amount of care delivered. There can be no assurance that managed care arrangements will not become more prevalent in the dental care field in the future, that the downward pressures on fees associated with managed care will not increase, or that the Debtors will not be adversely affected by growth in managed dental care. There can be no assurance that the Debtors' affiliated dental practices will be able to negotiate satisfactory arrangements on a capitated or other risk-sharing basis in the future. H. The dental industry is regulated extensively at both the state and federal levels. Regulatory oversight includes, but is not limited to, considerations of fee-splitting, corporate practice of dentistry, anti-kickback and anti-referral legislation and state insurance regulation. Although the Debtors believe that their operations fully comply with all applicable laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that a review of the Debtors' business relationships by courts or other regulatory authorities would not result in determinations that could prohibit or otherwise adversely affect operations or that the regulatory environment will not change, requiring the Debtors to reorganize, change the Debtors' methods of reporting revenues and other financial results or restrict existing or future operations. Any such change could have a materially adverse effect on the Debtors' business, financial condition and results of operations. I. Future health care legislation at the federal or state level could have a material adverse effect on the Debtors' business, financial condition and results of operations. The foregoing discussion of risks is nonexclusive. The risk factors discussed above, as well as other risk factors, could have an adverse impact on the Debtors' future business operations and impair their ability to perform their obligations under the Plan. However, the Debtors believe that the Plan proposed herewith takes fairly into account potential risks, and that they will be able to perform the obligations undertaken therein. VIII DISTRIBUTIONS 8.1 Distribution Agent. Reorganized InterDent shall serve as the Distribution Agent for distributions to be made to Holders of Allowed Claims. The Distribution Agent may employ one or more sub agents on such terms and conditions as it may agree in its discretion. The Distribution Agent shall not be required to provide any bond in connection with the making of any distributions pursuant to the Plan. 8.2 Distributions. 8.2.1 Dates of Distributions. Except as provided in Section 9.2.3 of the Plan, any distribution required to be made on the Effective Date shall be deemed timely if made as soon as practicable after such date and, in any event, within thirty (30) days after such date. Any distribution required to be made upon a Disputed Claim becoming an Allowed Claim shall be deemed timely if made as soon as practicable after the Claim has become Allowed. Distributions of Cash (if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan) or of New Class C Common Stock (if Class 4.1 rejects the Plan) to Holders of Class 4.1 Claims shall be made on Distribution Dates which shall occur at least quarterly, beginning within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, until the distribution of Cash or New Class C Common Stock to such Holders, as applicable, is completed. 8.2.2 Limitation on Liability. Neither the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Co-Sponsors, or their affiliates, nor any of their respective shareholders, general partners, limited partners, employees, members, officers, directors, agents, or professionals shall be liable for (i) any acts or omissions (except for gross negligence or willful misconduct) in connection with implementing the distribution provisions of the Plan and the making or withholding of distributions pursuant to the Plan, or (ii) any change in the value of distributions made pursuant to the Plan resulting from any delays in making such distributions in accordance with the Plan's terms (including but not limited to any delays caused by the resolution of Disputed Claims). 8.2.3 Distributions to DDJCM and LL Entities. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the distributions of New Preferred Stock, New Warrants and New Class A Common Stock and New Class B Common Stock to be made to DDJCM and the LL Entities pursuant to the Plan, shall be delivered on or before the second Business Day after the Effective Date, by the Reorganized Debtors directly to DDJCM and the LL Entities. 8.3 Treatment of Disputed Claims. 8.3.1 No Distribution Pending Allowance. If any portion of a Claim is a Disputed Claim, no payment or distribution provided for under the Plan shall be made on account of such Claim unless and until such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim and is no longer a Disputed Claim. 8.3.2 Distribution After Allowance. On the next Distribution Date following the date on which a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim and is no longer a Disputed Claim, the Distribution Agent shall distribute to the Person holding such Claim any Cash or New Common Stock that would have been distributable to such Person if on the Effective Date such Claim had been an Allowed Claim and not a Disputed Claim. 8.3.3 Reserves for Disputed Claims and Costs of Resolving Disputed Claims. The Distribution Agent shall establish reasonable reserves for Disputed Class 4.1 Claims and the aggregate Cash to be distributed to Holders of Allowed Class 4.1 Claims (if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan) or New Class C Common Stock to be distributed to Holders of Allowed Class 4.1 Claims and Allowed Class 5 Claims (if Class 4.1 rejects the Plan) on any Distribution Date shall be adjusted to reflect such reserves. If Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, the Distribution Agent shall also establish an appropriate reserve for the fees and expenses of the Committee and its counsel in connection with the resolution of Disputed Class 4.1 Claims, which reserve, plus twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) from the Debtors, shall be the sole and exclusive source of payment of any fees and expenses incurred by the Committee and its counsel in connection with the review, investigation, analysis, litigation and resolution of Disputed Class 4.1 Claims, whether incurred before or after the Effective Date, except from any available insurance coverage, and the Debtors, the Estates and the Reorganized Debtors shall have no other liability, and there shall be no other recourse against any of them, for any such fees and expenses. The Distribution Agent may move the Bankruptcy Court for approval of its determination to reserve certain amounts. Upon the determination of the Allowed Amount (if any) of a Disputed Class 4.1 Claim by Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, the following shall occur: (a) if Class 4.1. rejects the Plan, then any New Class C Common Stock that was reserved for such Disputed Class 4.1 Claim that (i) is not then distributable to the Holder of such Claim (to the extent that it has become an Allowed Class 4.1 Claim) and (ii) is not required to be reserved for other Disputed Class 4.1 Claims (based on the potential ratable share of New Class C Common Stock that would be received by the Holders of such Disputed Class 4.1 Claims if they became Allowed Class 4.1 Claims) shall be distributed ratably to the Holders of what are then Allowed Class 4.1 Claims and the Holder of the Allowed Class 5 Claims on the first quarterly Distribution Date following such determination; and (b) if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, then any Cash that was reserved for such Disputed Class 4.1 Claim that (i) is not then distributable to the Holder of such Class 4.1 Claim (to the extent that it has become an Allowed Class 4.1 Claim) and (ii) is not required to be reserved for other Disputed Class 4.1 Claims (based on the potential ratable share of the Cash to be distributed to Class 4.1 that would be received by the holders of such Disputed Class 4.1 Claims if they became Allowed Class 4.1 Claims) shall be distributed ratably among the Holders of what are then Allowed Class 4.1 Claims on the first quarterly Distribution Date following such determination. At such time as all Disputed Class 4.1 Claims have been resolved by Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, and there are no Class 4.1 Disputed Claims that could become Allowed Claims, then (i) if Class 4.1 rejects the Plan, all New Class C Common Stock, if any, that remains reserved for Disputed Class 4.1 Claims shall be distributed on a ratable basis to the Holders of Allowed Class 4.1 Claims and Allowed Class 5 Claims; and (ii) if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, all Cash, if any, that remains reserved for Disputed Class 4.1 Claims and all Cash, if any, that remains in the reserve for the fees and expenses of the Committee and its counsel in connection with the resolution of Disputed Class 4.1 Claims following the final resolution and payment of all amounts due and owing to the Committee and its counsel from such fee and expense reserve shall be distributed on a ratable basis to the Holders of Allowed Class 4.1 Claims, in either case, within ten (10) Business Days days following such final resolution of Disputed Class 4.1 Claims (and, if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, such fees and expenses). IX EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES 9.1 Executory Contracts Being Assumed. Effective as of, and conditioned on, the occurrence of the Effective Date: (A) InterDent shall assume all of the executory contracts and unexpired leases listed on Exhibit "11.1 A-1" to the Plan Documentary Supplement; (B) ISC shall assume all of the executory contracts and unexpired leases listed on Exhibit "11.1 A-2" to the Plan Documentary Supplement; and (C) InterDent or ISC, as applicable, shall assume any executory contract or unexpired lease, to the extent that such executory contract or unexpired lease is not listed on any of Exhibits "11.1A-1," "11.1A-2," "11.2R-1," or "11.2R-2" to the Plan on or before the Confirmation Date, other than (i) any Seller Note which may be deemed an executory contract or unexpired lease or part of an executory contract or unexpired lease or is part of a larger contract or lease arrangement or transaction and (ii) any other executory contract or unexpired lease which is part of a contract arrangement or transaction that includes or included the issuance of any Seller Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Seller Note (to the extent that such Seller Note constitutes or is part of an executory contract or unexpired lease or is part of a contract or lease arrangement or transaction) and all related agreements that are part of a contract or lease arrangement or transaction that includes or included the issuance of a Seller Note, that is not listed on any of the foregoing exhibits prior to the Confirmation Date shall be rejected. The Debtors may add any executory contract or unexpired lease to these exhibits, or delete any contract or lease therefrom through and including August 11, 2003. To the extent that an executory contract or unexpired lease has previously been assumed by a Debtor pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court, such assumption shall not be affected by the Plan. The assumption of any contracts or leases pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.1 of the Plan shall be only to the extent that such assumed contracts or leases constitute executory contracts and unexpired leases within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. Inclusion of an agreement in Exhibits "11.1 A-1" or "11.1 A-2" does not constitute an admission that (i) such agreement is an executory contract or unexpired lease within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) the Debtors must assume such agreement in order to continue to receive or retain rights, benefits, or performance thereunder or that any Claim under such matter must be paid or default cured, if it is not an executory contract or unexpired lease, or (iii) such agreement is a valid contract or lease. Any contract or lease assumed pursuant to the Plan shall be assumed as previously amended or otherwise modified by the parties thereto, whether before or after the Petition Date. 9.2 Executory Contracts Being Rejected. InterDent shall reject all of its executory contracts and unexpired leases listed on Exhibit "11.2 R-1" and ISC shall reject all of its executory contracts and unexpired leases listed on Exhibit "11.2 R-2." In addition, and without limiting the foregoing, the Debtors hereby reject all Seller Notes (to the extent that any Seller Note constitutes or is part of an executory contract or unexpired lease or is part of a larger contract or lease transaction or arrangement) and all related agreements that are part of a contract or lease arrangement or transaction that includes or included the issuance of a Senior Note, to the extent that such Seller Notes and related agreements are not listed on any of Exhibits "11.1A-1", "11.1A-2", "11.2R-1", "11.2R-2" prior to the Confirmation Date. A list of rejected Seller Notes is set forth in Exhibit "6" hereto. The Debtors reserve the right to amend Exhibits "11.2 R-1" and "11.2 R-2" to include additional leases and contracts on those Exhibits, or to delete leases and contracts from those Exhibits, through and including August 11, 2003. To the extent that an executory contract or unexpired lease has previously been rejected by the Debtors pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court, such rejection shall not be affected by the Plan. 9.3 Retention of Property Rights By Reorganized Debtors. To the extent that an agreement that provides the Debtors with property rights does not constitute an executory contract or unexpired lease, or the Debtors have obtained property rights under the executed portion of an executory contract or unexpired lease, rejection shall not constitute an abandonment by the Debtors of any such property rights. 9.4 Bar Date for Rejection Damages. Any Claim arising out of the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their Affiliates, their successors or Estates, or their properties, and shall not be entitled to any distribution under the Plan, unless a proof of claim for such Claim is filed and served on the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors within forty-five (45) days after the earlier of (a) the date of entry of the order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the rejection of the executory contract or unexpired lease, or (b) the Confirmation Date. 9.5 Cure Statements. Any party whose executory contract or unexpired lease is assumed under the terms of the Plan must File and serve on the Reorganized Debtors a statement within forty-five (45) days after the Confirmation Date itemizing all charges and other costs that the party contends must be paid in order to cure any defaults upon the assumption of the contract or lease (the "Cure Statement"). Failure to timely file a Cure Statement shall constitute a waiver of any cure claim and of any defaults occurring prior to the Confirmation Date. If the Reorganized Debtors do not object to the Cure Statement, the applicable Reorganized Debtor will pay the amount reflected on the Cure Statement within the later of thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, and thirty (30) days after the Reorganized Debtors' receipt of the Cure Statement. If the Debtors object to the Cure Statement, and cannot resolve their objections with the claimant, the Debtors may either 1) elect to reject the contract within thirty (30) days after the Cure Statement is Filed, or 2) file an objection to the Cure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court. If such an objection is filed, any cure amount payable upon the assumption of the executory contract or unexpired lease shall be due and payable on or before the fifteenth (15th) day after the entry of a Final Order fixing the cure amount and then only in the amount fixed by such order. 9.6 Changes in Rates Subject to Regulatory Commission Approval. The Debtors are not subject to governmental regulatory commission approval of their rates. X TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PLAN 10.1 Introduction.....The implementation of the Plan may have federal, state and local tax consequences to the Debtors and the Debtors' Creditors and Interest Holders. No tax opinion has been sought or will be obtained with respect to any tax consequences of the Plan. This Disclosure Statement does not constitute and is not intended to constitute either a tax opinion or tax advice to any person, and the summary contained herein is provided for informational purposes only. The discussion below summarizes only certain of the federal income tax consequences associated with the Plan's implementation. This discussion does not attempt to comment on all aspects of the federal income tax consequences associated with the Plan, nor does it attempt to consider various facts or limitations applicable to any particular Creditor or Interest Holder which may modify or alter the consequences described herein. A Creditor or Interest Holder may find that the tax consequences of the Plan to such Creditor or Interest Holder differ materially from the tax consequences discussed below because of such Creditor's or Interest Holder's facts and circumstances. This discussion does not address state, local or foreign tax consequences or the consequences of any federal tax other than the federal income tax. The following discussion is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code"), the regulations promulgated thereunder, existing judicial decisions and administrative rulings. In light of the rapidly-changing nature of tax law, no assurance can be given that legislative, judicial or administrative changes will not be forthcoming that would affect the accuracy of the discussion below. Any such changes could be material and could be retroactive with respect to the transactions entered into or completed prior to the enactment or promulgation thereof. The tax consequences of certain aspects of the Plan are uncertain due to the lack of applicable legal authority and may be subject to judicial or administrative interpretations that differ from the discussion below. CREDITORS AND INTEREST HOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM AND TO THE DEBTORS OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THE PLAN, INCLUDING FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES. 10.2 Federal Income Tax Consequences to the Debtors. 10.2.1 Tax Reorganization. Internal Revenue Code section 368 defines certain tax reorganizations under the Internal Revenue Code, including reorganizations under the Bankruptcy Code. Tax reorganizations usually involve exchanges of stock and tax securities in which the issuing corporation (or another corporation that is a party to the reorganization) and the holders of stock and tax securities participate. The Debtors believe that the transactions contemplated by the Plan constitute a recapitalization qualifying as a tax reorganization pursuant to Internal Revenue Code section 368(a)(1)(E). However, this conclusion is not free from doubt in light of the uncertain scope of the definition of "recapitalization." No assurances can be given that a court will uphold the Debtors' contention that the Plan transactions constitute a recapitalization if such contention is challenged. 10.2.2 Carryover And Availability Of The Debtor Consolidated Group's Net Operating Losses. A. General. InterDent, ISC and the other 80 percent or more controlled subsidiaries of InterDent (collectively, the "Debtor Consolidated Group") comprise an affiliated group that files a consolidated federal income tax return. Based on preliminary estimates, the Debtor Consolidated Group will have approximately $109 million of consolidated net operating losses ("NOLs") carrying forward from the tax year ending December 31, 2002 into the tax year ending December 31, 2003. The Debtors are uncertain whether the Debtor Consolidated Group will have a consolidated net operating loss in the tax year ending December 31, 2003. The NOL amounts of the Debtor Consolidated Group are subject to review and significant adjustment upon audit by the IRS. In addition, the foregoing estimates of the Debtor Consolidated Group's NOLs are subject to legal and factual uncertainty. The tax attribute reduction rules of Internal Revenue Code section 108 may have the effect of severely reducing the Debtor Consolidated Group's NOLs. The extent to which the Debtor Consolidated Group's NOLs will be available to shelter post-Effective Date income from federal income tax currently is unclear. Creditors and other parties in interest are cautioned against assuming that such NOLs will be available to any extent for such purpose. B. Section 382. Internal Revenue Code section 382 places potentially severe limitations upon the use of a corporation's NOLs and certain other tax attributes if an "ownership change" occurs with respect to such corporation's stock. Based upon the anticipated stock ownership of Reorganized InterDent, the Debtors believe that an "ownership change" will occur with respect to InterDent's stock as a result of the cancellation of all Existing InterDent Common Stock and Existing Preferred Stock and the issuance of New Common Stock and New Preferred Stock pursuant to the Plan. Accordingly, the limitations and restrictions of section 382 should apply if the Plan is consummated. When a corporation in bankruptcy issues stock to creditors in exchange for debt -- as will occur here, if the Plan is consummated -- the annual limitation imposed by section 382 generally is equal to the product of (1) the fair market value of the stock of such corporation (or, in the case of a consolidated group, the common parent) multiplied by (2) the long-term tax-exempt rate (4.58 percent in the case of ownership changes occurring in May 2003). If the ownership change occurs pursuant to a confirmed chapter 11 plan of reorganization, the stock's fair market value for this purpose generally is deemed to be equal to the lesser of (a) the fair market value of the stock immediately after the ownership change, or (b) the fair market value of all the corporation's assets immediately before the ownership change, determined without regard to any liabilities of the corporation. Any unused limitation may be carried forward, thereby increasing the annual limitation in the subsequent taxable year. However, if a corporation (or consolidated group) does not continue its historic business or use a significant portion of its assets in a new business for a period of two years after the ownership change, the annual limitation resulting from the ownership change is zero. The Debtors presently intend to continue their historic business. Special rules may reduce or increase the annual NOL limitation described above if a net unrealized built-in loss ("NUBIL") or a net unrealized built-in gain ("NUBIG") is present on the date of the ownership change. The Debtors have not yet determined whether a NUBIG or NUBIL exists now or is likely to exist as of the ownership change date. An exception to the general annual limitation (including NUBIG and NUBIL rules) applies where the stockholders and/or qualified creditors of the debtor-corporation retain or receive (other than for new value), pursuant to a confirmed chapter 11 plan of reorganization, 50 percent or more of the stock of the reorganized debtor, determined both on the basis of voting power and fair market value. This rule is stated in Internal Revenue Code section 382(l)(5). The Debtors are uncertain whether the special bankruptcy rule of section 382(l)(5) will apply to them or, if it applies, whether such application will be beneficial. Any shift (deemed or actual) in the ownership of stock of the Debtors, directly or by attribution, outside the scope of the Plan may trigger the application of section 382 and other provisions of the Internal Revenue Code which may affect the availability of the Debtor Consolidated Group's NOLs. Because the federal income tax consequences of any such shift would depend on the particular facts and circumstances at such time and the application of complex legislation and regulations, the Debtors express no views as to the effect of any transactions outside the scope of the Plan or the survival of any NOL or other carryovers. C. Reduction Of The Debtors' Indebtedness. Consummation of the Plan will substantially reduce the amount of the Debtors' aggregate outstanding indebtedness (any amount of potential discharged indebtedness for federal income tax purposes will be referred to herein as a "Debt Discharge Amount"). In general, the Internal Revenue Code provides that a taxpayer who realizes a discharge of indebtedness must include the Debt Discharge Amount in its gross income in the taxable year of discharge to the extent that the Debt Discharge Amount exceeds any consideration given for such discharge. No income from the discharge of indebtedness is realized to the extent that payment of the liability being discharged would have given rise to a deduction. If a taxpayer is in a title 11 case and the discharge of indebtedness occurs pursuant to a plan approved by the court, such discharge of indebtedness is specifically excluded from gross income. Accordingly, the Debtors will not be required to include in income any Debt Discharge Amount as a result of Plan transactions. The Internal Revenue Code requires certain tax attributes of a debtor to be reduced by the Debt Discharge Amount excluded from income. Tax attributes are reduced in the following order of priority: net operating losses and net operating loss carryovers; general business credits; minimum tax credits; capital loss carryovers; basis of property of the taxpayer; passive activity loss or credit carryovers; and foreign tax credit carryovers. Tax attributes are generally reduced by one dollar for each dollar excluded from gross income, except that general tax credits, minimum tax credits and foreign tax credits are reduced by 33.3 cents for each dollar excluded from gross income. As discussed above, the tax attribute reduction rules may eliminate a large portion of the Debtor Consolidated Group's NOLs and other tax attributes. An election can be made to alter the order of priority of attribute reduction by first applying the reduction against depreciable property held by the taxpayer in an amount not to exceed the aggregate adjusted basis of such property. The Debtors have not yet decided whether to make such election. The deadline for making such election is the due date (including extensions) of the Debtors' federal income tax return for the taxable year in which such debt is discharged pursuant to the Plan. Any claim against a debtor (except a claim that would give rise to a deduction if paid) that is discharged by payment to a creditor of Cash and/or property will result in the creation of a Debt Discharge Amount reducing tax attributes to the extent that the adjusted issue price of the debt discharged (plus accrued interest) exceeds the fair market value of the payment made in cancellation thereof. A debtor's Debt Discharge Amount may be increased to the extent that unsecured creditors holding unscheduled claims fail to timely file a proof of Claim and have their claims discharged on the Confirmation Date pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 1141. 10.3 Tax Consequences To Creditors. The tax consequences of the Plan's implementation to a Creditor will depend on whether the Creditor's present Claim constitutes a "security" of a Debtor for federal income tax purposes and the type of consideration received by the Creditor in exchange for its Claim, whether the Creditor reports income on the cash or accrual method, whether the Creditor receives consideration in more than one tax year of the Creditor, and whether all the consideration received by the Creditor is deemed to be received by that Creditor in an integrated transaction. The tax consequences upon the receipt of Cash, debt instruments or other property allocable to interest are discussed below under "Receipt of Interest." 10.3.1 Claims Constituting Tax Securities. A. Definition Of "Security" For Tax Purposes. The determination whether a Claim of any particular Creditor constitutes a "security" for federal income tax purposes is based upon the facts and circumstances surrounding the origin and nature of the Claim and its maturity date. Generally, Claims arising out of the extension of trade credit have been held not to be "securities" for federal income tax purposes (collectively, "Tax Securities" or individually, a "Tax Security"). Instruments with a term of five years or less rarely qualify as Tax Securities. On the other hand, bonds or debentures with an original term in excess of ten years have generally been held to be Tax Securities. The Debtors express no view with respect to whether a Claim based on any pre-Effective Date obligation of the Debtors constitutes a Tax Security. EACH CREDITOR IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR IN THIS REGARD. B. Receipt Of Tax Securities. Section 354 of the Internal Revenue Code provides for nonrecognition of gain or loss by holders of Tax Securities of a corporation who exchange these Claims solely for stock or Tax Securities, pursuant to certain tax reorganizations, including a recapitalization pursuant to section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Tax Code. In the context of the Plan, such section would apply where a holder of Tax Securities of InterDent exchanges such items for New InterDent Securities. The nonrecognition rule of Section 354 is not applicable by its terms if: (i) the principal amount of Tax Securities received exceeds the principal amount of Tax Securities surrendered; or (ii) Tax Securities are received, but none are surrendered; or (iii) stock or Tax Securities are received for accrued interest. If solely New InterDent Securities are received, but clause (i) or (ii) applies, gain (but not loss) will be recognized to the extent of the fair market value of the amounts described in clauses (i) or (ii), as applicable. The treatment of Tax Securities received for accrued interest is described in "Receipt of Interest" below. C. Receipt Of Cash Or Debt Not Constituting Tax Securities For Tax Securities. A Creditor whose existing Claims constitute Tax Securities may recognize gain (but not loss) if, in addition to New InterDent Securities or Tax Securities of Reorganized InterDent, such Creditor receives: cash, debt of Reorganized InterDent not constituting Tax Securities, or other property ("Boot"). The amount of such gain, if any, to a cash basis taxpayer will equal the lesser of (i) the excess, if any, of the sum of cash and fair market value of all other consideration received over the basis of the Creditor in such Creditor's existing Claims (other than any Claims in respect of accrued interest); or (ii) the amount of cash and the fair market value of other Boot items. D. Determination Of Character Of Gain. In the case of a Creditor whose existing Claims constitute capital assets in such Creditor's hands, the gain required to be recognized will be classified as a capital gain, except to the extent of interest (including accrued market discount, if any). Any gain recognized will be treated as ordinary income to the extent of accrued market discount. To the extent gain at least equal to any accrued market discount is not recognized by the holder, such unrecognized accrued market discount will be attributed to the Tax Securities and New InterDent Securities received. Any gain recognized by the Creditor upon a subsequent sale or exchange of such Tax Securities or New InterDent Securities will be ordinary income to the extent of such accrued market discount. In this regard, it should be noted that section 582(c) of the Internal Revenue Code provides that the sale or exchange of a bond, debenture, note or certificate, or other evidence of indebtedness by a bank or certain other financial institutions shall not be considered the sale or exchange of a capital asset. Accordingly, any gain recognized by such Creditors as a result of the Plan's implementation will be ordinary income, notwithstanding the nature of their Claims. Any capital gain recognized by a creditor will be long-term capital gain with respect to those Claims for which the Creditor's holding period is more than one year, and short-term capital gain with respect to such Claims for which the Creditor's holding period is one year or less. E. Tax Basis And Holding Period Of Items Received. The aggregate tax basis of any New InterDent Securities or Tax Securities of InterDent received by a cash basis Creditor of InterDent, other than amounts received on account of interest, will be a substituted basis equal to the Creditor's basis in the Claim surrendered (other than any Claims in respect of accrued interest), increased by any gain recognized on the exchange, and decreased by the amount of any cash and the fair market value of any other Boot items received. If a Creditor subsequently recognizes any gain on the sale or exchange of stock received, the gain recognized by such Creditor on such sale or exchange will be treated as ordinary income to the extent of any bad debt deduction attributable to such Creditor's Claim or ordinary loss deduction previously claimed by such creditor, provided that the stock constitutes a capital asset in the Creditor's hands. A Creditor's holding period for any New InterDent Securities or Tax Securities of Reorganized InterDent (other than New InterDent Securities or Tax Securities of InterDent received on account of interest) received pursuant to the Plan will include the period during which such Creditor held the exchanged Tax Security of InterDent. F. Receipt Solely Of Boot. A Creditor holding Tax Securities of InterDent who receives solely cash and/or other Boot items in full satisfaction of such Creditor's Claim will be required to recognize gain or loss on the exchange. The Creditor will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized in respect of such Claim and the Creditor's tax basis in the Claim, and the tax treatment will parallel the tax treatment set forth below in "Claims Not Constituting Tax Securities." 10.3.2 Claims Not Constituting Tax Securities. A. Gain/Loss On Exchange. A Creditor whose existing Claims do not constitute Tax Securities of InterDent (such as most or all trade Claims) will recognize gain or loss on the actual or constructive exchange of such Creditor's existing Claims (other than Claims for accrued interest) for Cash and any other consideration received (including a new debt instrument) equal to the difference between (i) the "amount realized" in respect of such Claims and (ii) the creditor's tax basis in such Claims. The "amount realized" will be equal to the sum of the Cash and (i) as to a cash-basis taxpayer, the fair market value of all other consideration received, and (ii) as to an accrual-basis taxpayer, the face amount of any new debt instruments and fair market value of the other consideration received, less any amounts allocable to interest, unstated interest or original issue discount. B. Tax Basis And Holding Period Of Items Received. The aggregate tax basis in the items received by a Creditor will equal the amount realized in respect of such items (other than amounts allocable to any accrued interest). The holding period for items received in the exchange will begin on the day following the exchange. C. Bad Debt Deduction on Discharge of Claim. A Creditor whose existing Claim does not constitute a Tax Security and who receives no consideration under the Plan with respect to such Claim may be entitled to a bad debt deduction equal in amount to such Creditor's adjusted basis in such Claim. A bad debt deduction is allowed in the taxable year of the Creditor in which a debt becomes wholly worthless. The discharge of a Claim pursuant to the Plan establishes that such Claim is wholly worthless as of the date of discharge (assuming the holder of the Claim receives no consideration under the Plan with respect to such Claim). It is possible, however, that such Claim may have become wholly worthless on an earlier date, depending upon all the facts and circumstances. The Debtors express no opinion regarding the date or dates on which Claims discharged under the Plan became worthless. D. Receipt Of Interest. Income attributable to accrued but unpaid interest will be treated as ordinary income, regardless of whether the Creditor's existing Claims are capital assets in its hands. A Creditor who, under its accounting method, was not previously required to include in income accrued but unpaid interest attributable to existing Claims, and who exchanges its interest Claim for Cash, or other property pursuant to the Plan, will be treated as receiving ordinary interest income to the extent of any consideration so received allocable to such interest, regardless of whether that Creditor realizes an overall gain or loss as a result of the exchange of its existing Claims. A Creditor who had previously included in income accrued but unpaid interest attributable to its existing Claims will recognize a loss to the extent such accrued but unpaid interest is not satisfied in full. For purposes of the above discussion, "accrued" interest means interest which was accrued while the underlying Claim was held by the Creditor. The extent to which consideration distributable under the Plan is allocable to such interest is uncertain. 10.3.4 Other Tax Considerations. A. Market Discount. If a Creditor has a lower tax basis in a Debtor obligation than its face amount, the difference may constitute market discount under section 1276 of the Internal Revenue Code. (Certain Debtor obligations are excluded from the operation of this rule, such as obligations with a fixed maturity date not exceeding one year from the date of issue, installment obligations to which Internal Revenue Code section 453B applies and, in all likelihood, demand instruments). Holders in whose hands Debtors' obligations are market discount bonds will be required to treat as ordinary income any gain recognized upon the exchange of such obligations to the extent of the market discount accrued during the holder's period of ownership, unless the holder has elected to include such market discount in income as it accrued. B. Original Issue Discount. The actual or constructive exchange of a Reorganized InterDent debt instrument for an existing Debtor debt instrument (including certain constructive exchanges that occur when an existing debt instrument is significantly or materially modified) may result in the creation of original issue discount ("OID") to the extent that the issue price of the new debt instrument is less than its stated redemption price at maturity (generally, its face amount). The holder of an OID instrument must include in income the sum of the daily portion of the OID accretion during the taxable year for each year it holds the instrument even in the absence of payments during such year. The daily portion of the OID accretion on an instrument is determined by allocating to each day in the period the ratable portion of the increase in the adjusted issue price of the instrument during that period. C. Withholding. The Reorganized Debtors will withhold any amounts required by law from payments made to Creditors. This may require payments by certain Creditors of the required withholding tax on the non-Cash consideration issuable under the Plan. In addition, Creditors may be required to provide general tax information to the Reorganized Debtors. D. Taxation Of Certain Reserves. Section 468B(g) of the Internal Revenue Code provides that escrow accounts, settlement funds or similar funds are subject to current taxation. It also provides that the IRS will prescribe regulations for the taxation of any such account or fund, whether as a grantor trust or otherwise. The IRS issued final regulations regarding settlement funds on December 18, 1992. However, such regulations specifically reserve the tax treatment of settlement funds in bankruptcy and the treatment of stock of the issuer to satisfy such obligations. It is thus uncertain as to who is responsible for reporting income generated by the funds in any unclaimed property or disputed claims reserve formed pursuant to the Plan. It is possible that the reserves could be treated as a grantor trust for which the creditor beneficiaries are treated as grantors. As such, the creditor beneficiaries would be subject to current taxation on the income generated by such reserves. If the reserves are not treated as such a grantor trust, they will likely be treated as a partnership (under the default rule of the "check the box" Treasury Regulations) or a trust taxable currently as a separate entity on its income. Pursuant to the Plan and related documents, any party responsible for administering such reserves will also be required to file appropriate income tax returns and pay any tax due out of such reserves as a result of any income earned in such reserves. 10.4 Tax Consequences To Shareholders. The cancellation of Existing InterDent Common Stock and Existing Preferred Stock pursuant to the Plan may entitle holders of such stock to a worthless stock deduction under Internal Revenue Code section 165(g) for the taxable year of such holders in which the cancellation occurs. It is possible, however, that Existing InterDent Common Stock and Existing Preferred Stock became worthless at an earlier date. The Debtors express no opinion regarding the date on which Existing InterDent Common Stock or Existing Preferred Stock became wholly worthless. XI CONFIRMATION REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES 11.1 Introduction. PERSONS OR ENTITIES CONCERNED WITH CONFIRMATION OR THE PLAN SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN ATTORNEYS BECAUSE THE LAW ON CONFIRMING A PLAN OF REORGANIZATION IS VERY COMPLEX. The following discussion is intended solely for the purpose of alerting readers about basic confirmation issues, which they may wish to consider, as well as certain deadlines for filing claims. The Debtors CANNOT and DO NOT represent that the discussion contained below is a complete summary of the law on this topic and are not providing any legal opinions. Many requirements must be met before a bankruptcy court can confirm a Chapter 11 plan. Some of the requirements include that the plan must be proposed in good faith, the distributions to nonaccepting creditors and impaired classes must be at least as much as such creditors would receive in a Chapter 7 liquidation, and the plan must be feasible. These requirements are not the only requirements for confirmation. 11.2 Who May Object to Confirmation of the Plan. Any party in interest may object to the confirmation of the Plan, but as explained below, not every party in interest is entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. 11.3 Who May Vote to Accept/Reject the Plan. A Creditor or Interest Holder has a right to vote for or against the Plan if that Creditor or Interest Holder has a Claim which is both (1) allowed or allowed for voting purposes and (2) classified in an impaired Class. 11.3.1 What Is an Allowed Claim/Interest. As noted above, a Creditor or Interest Holder must first have an Allowed Claim or Interest to have the right to vote. Generally, any proof of claim or interest will be allowed, unless a party-in-interest brings a motion objecting to the claim. When an objection to a claim or interest is filed, the creditor or interest holder holding the claim or interest cannot vote unless the bankruptcy court, after notice and a hearing, either overrules the objection or allows the claim or interest for voting purposes. THE BAR DATE FOR FILING A PROOF OF CLAIM IN THIS CASE IS JULY 28, 2003. A creditor or interest holder may have an allowed claim or interest even if a proof of claim or interest was not timely filed. A claim is deemed allowed if (1) it is scheduled on the Debtor's schedules and such claim is not scheduled as disputed, contingent, or unliquidated, and (2) no party in interest has objected to the claim. An interest is deemed allowed if it is scheduled and no party in interest has objected to the interest. 11.3.2 What Is an Impaired Class of Claim(s)/Interest(s). As noted above, an allowed claim or interest only has the right to vote if it is in a class that is impaired under a Chapter 11 plan. A class is impaired if the plan alters the legal, equitable, or contractual rights of the holders of claims or interests in that class, with certain exceptions. For example, a class comprised of general unsecured claims is impaired if the plan fails to pay the holders of claims in that class 100% of what they are owed. In this case, the Debtors believe that Classes 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 are impaired and that Class 3 is unimpaired under the Plan. Parties who dispute the Debtors' characterization of their Claim or Interest as being in an impaired or unimpaired Class may file an objection to the Plan contending that the Debtors have incorrectly characterized the Class. 11.4 Who is Not Entitled to Vote. The following four types of claims are not entitled to vote: (1) claims that have been disallowed; (2) claims in unimpaired classes; (3) claims entitled to priority pursuant to Bankruptcy Code sections 507(a)(1), (a)(2), and (a)(8); and (4) claims in classes that do not receive or retain any property under a Chapter 11 plan. Claims in unimpaired classes are not entitled to vote because such classes are deemed to have accepted the plan. Claims entitled to priority pursuant to Bankruptcy Code sections 507(a)(1), (a)(2), and (a)(8) are not entitled to vote because such claims are not placed in classes and they are required to receive certain treatment specified by the Bankruptcy Code. Claims in classes that do not receive or retain any property under the plan do not vote because such classes are deemed to have rejected the plan. EVEN IF YOUR CLAIM IS OF THE TYPE DESCRIBED ABOVE, YOU MAY STILL HAVE A RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE CONFIRMATION OF THE PLAN. 11.5 Who Can Vote in More Than One Class. A creditor whose claim has been allowed in part as a secured claim and in part as an unsecured claim is entitled to accept or reject a plan in both capacities by casting one ballot for the secured part of the claim and another ballot for the unsecured claim. Also, any party who holds allowed claims or interests in more than one class may vote the claim or interest in each class. 11.6 Votes Necessary to Confirm the Plan. If impaired classes exist, the bankruptcy court cannot confirm a Chapter 11 plan unless (1) all impaired classes have voted to accept the plan, or (2) at least one impaired class has accepted the plan without counting the votes of any insiders within that class and the plan is eligible to be confirmed by "cramdown" on non-accepting classes, as discussed in Section 11.8 below. 11.7 Votes Necessary for a Class to Accept the Plan. A class of claims is deemed to have accepted a Chapter 11 plan when more than one-half (1/2) in number and at least two-thirds (2/3) in dollar amount of the claims that actually vote, vote in favor of the plan. A class of interests is deemed to have accepted the plan when at least two-thirds (2/3) in amount of the interest holders of such class which actually vote, vote to accept the plan. 11.8 Treatment of Nonaccepting Classes. As noted above, even if there are impaired classes that do not accept a Chapter 11 plan, the bankruptcy court may nonetheless confirm the plan if the nonaccepting classes are treated in the manner required by the Bankruptcy Code and there is at least one impaired class that accepts the plan. The process by which a plan can be confirmed and becomes binding on non-accepting classes notwithstanding rejection by one or more classes is commonly referred to as "cramdown." The Bankruptcy Code allows a plan to be "crammed down" on nonaccepting classes of claims or interests if it meets all requirements for confirmation except the voting requirements of 1129(a)(8) and if the plan does not "discriminate unfairly" and is "fair and equitable" with respect to each impaired class that has not voted to accept the plan, as provided in 11 U.S.C. ss. 1129(b) and applicable case law. 11.9 Request for Confirmation Despite Nonacceptance by Impaired Class(es). The parties proposing the Plan will ask the Bankruptcy Court to confirm the Plan by cramdown on any impaired Class if such Class does not vote to accept the Plan. 11.10 Liquidation Analysis. Pursuant to section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code a plan cannot be confirmed unless the bankruptcy court determines that distributions under the plan to all holders of claims and interests who have not accepted the plan and whose claims and interests are classified in classes that are impaired under the plan, are no less than those which they would receive in a liquidation under Chapter 7. This test must be satisfied even if a plan is accepted by each impaired class of claims and interests. This test, which is often referred to as the "best interests" test, requires the bankruptcy court to find either that (i) all holders of claims and interests in an impaired class of claims or interests have accepted the plan or (ii) the plan will provide each holder of claims and interests in an impaired class who has not accepted the plan with a recovery of property of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, that is not less than the amount that such holder would receive if the debtor were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. To satisfy the "best interest" test, the bankruptcy court must reach a conclusion regarding the probable distribution to the holders in each impaired class of claims and interests if the debtor were liquidated in a Chapter 7 proceeding. The first step in this process is to determine the "liquidation value" that would be generated from a forced sale of the debtor's assets by a Chapter 7 trustee. The second step requires the application of the projected liquidation proceeds in accordance with the various rights of creditors holding liens on the property. For example, if Creditor A holds a lien on corporate equipment but not inventory, the proceeds of the liquidation derived from this asset would have to be applied against this claimant's debt. If the proceeds were sufficient to retire the associated secured claim, then the claim would be paid in full. However, if the liquidation proceeds are not sufficient, then that portion of the claim which is not satisfied from the sale proceeds is treated as an unsecured claim and shares pro rata at this distribution level. This process must then be repeated as to each collateral category to ensure that the associated claims secured by collateral are paid from their collateral and only from their collateral. Once all of the claims secured by liens on the estates' assets are deducted from the projected liquidation proceeds of the sale of the associated collateral, then the costs and expenses associated with the liquidation of the estate incurred by the Chapter 7 trustee must be paid, as well as other costs associated with the Chapter 7 process, which are entitled to priority. These costs would include the compensation of a trustee, as well as of counsel and other professionals retained by the trustee, asset disposition expenses, all unpaid administrative expenses incurred by the debtor in its Chapter 11 case (such as compensation of attorneys, financial advisors, and restructuring consultants) that are allowed in the Chapter 7 case, litigation costs, and unpaid claims arising from the operations of the debtor during the pendency of the Chapter 11 case. Thereafter, the administrative costs and expenses incurred in the Chapter 11 case must be paid from the net proceeds. After the payment of administrative expenses, the remaining liquidation proceeds would be used to pay priority claims, such as tax and wage claims that are entitled to priority under the Bankruptcy Code. Thereafter the remaining liquidation proceeds would be made available to pay general unsecured claims. Finally, to the extent that any proceeds remained after paying all allowed claims, they would be distributed to equity holders in accordance with their liquidation priorities. Attached hereto as Exhibit "3" is a liquidation analysis prepared by the Debtors that estimates the probable liquidation value of the Debtors, and applies the foregoing liquidation methodology to the estimated Claims against the Estates in a Chapter 7 liquidation in an effort to quantify what each Class of Creditors and Interest Holders would receive in a Chapter 7 liquidation. Any liquidation analysis of this nature entails a significant degree of estimation, approximation, prognostication and projection regarding both probable asset value and probable Allowed Claim totals. For example, in preparing Exhibit "3," the Debtors have necessarily quantified what they believe will be the Allowed Claims within each Class. Although this quantification was based upon figures and information in the Debtors' books and records, as of this writing, not all Claims have been filed, there will be Disputed Claims filed, and judicial determinations will have to be made in the future regarding the merits of these Disputed Claims. These and other factors may significantly increase or reduce the Allowed Claims total within each Class. On the valuation side, the Debtors have estimated the liquidation value of the Debtors' assets utilizing their best estimate of the value of the Debtors' assets under two distinct methodologies. In the Asset Sale scenario presented in Exhibit "3," the Debtors' assets are sold through a true asset sale, with each category of assets, and in some instances individual assets, being sold, or collected in the case of accounts receivable and cash, with the proceeds then aggregated for distribution. In the Practice Sale scenario, the Debtors have assumed that they will have the time and opportunity to sell their interests in the various practices to competitors, dental practitioners, and in some instance to the owners of the underlying practices. As Exhibit "3" indicates, this is the preferable liquidation scenario, because it would yield the largest return on the business. The following is a summary of the projected results of the most favorable estimated liquidation analysis presented in Exhibit "3":

Although liquidation values are typically substantially lower than going concern values, the Debtors believe that the value differential in this case would be particularly pronounced for the following reasons. Unlike a manufacturing concern, or another business that employs a larger concentration of hard assets or intellectual property in its business model, the Debtors' core product is the delivery of high quality management services to dental practices. These services are delivered through a core of highly skilled employees, working with supportive accounting, financial and management systems. The core value in the Debtors is the net income stream generated from the delivery of these services. Unfortunately, the Debtors' ability to deliver this core "product" evaporates once they cease to be going concerns, and consequently the net income stream would stop immediately. The Debtors believe that the result would necessarily be a massive and precipitous collapse in values, since the remaining assets have little value in comparison with the associated secured debt. Although there are inherent difficulties in quantifying with exactitude the potential recoveries that Creditors would receive in a Chapter 7 liquidation scenario, the Debtors believe that the comprehensive liquidation analysis attached hereto as Exhibit "3" provides a fair estimate of the results that would occur in a Chapter 7 liquidation. As this analysis indicates, all of the Debtors' assets are currently encumbered by first priority liens in favor of the holders of Senior Secured Claims, and the Senior Secured Claims total in excess of $84,300,000. Based upon the foregoing valuation assumptions, and given the amount of the existing Senior Secured Claims, the Debtors believe that the Senior Secured Claims, which comprise Class 1 under the Plan, would receive a liquidating distribution equal to between a low of approximately 22% and a high of 30% of their claims in a Chapter 7 liquidation. The lessors under capital leases would receive their equipment in exchange for their Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claims. The Debtors estimate that all other Creditors would receive no distribution in a Chapter 7 liquidation. In contrast, the Debtors believe that substantially more value will be available for Creditors under the terms of the Plan. Consider the following class by class comparative analysis: A. Class 1.1. Under the Plan, Senior Secured Claims held by the Bank Lenders, who comprise Class 1.1 under the Plan, will be paid in full over time. In contrast, this Class of claimants would receive only 22% to 30% of their Allowed Claims in a Chapter 7 liquidation. B. Class 1.2. Under the Plan, the Senior Secured Claims held by the Class 1.2 claimants are being converted, by agreement, into equity interests in InterDent. Since this treatment is consensual, the "best interests" of creditors test is satisfied. C. Class 2.1 - 2.17. In a Chapter 7 liquidation, the holders of Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claims would, in all likelihood, have their equipment returned in full satisfaction of their Allowed Secured Claims. They would not receive any distribution on the resulting unsecured Deficiency Claims. In contrast, under the Plan, the holders of Allowed Secured Capital Lease Claims may receive their equipment in satisfaction of their claims as in the Chapter 7 liquidation. However, the Plan also provides that in some instances these Claims will be paid in full over time, or paid in cash. Since the Debtors will be continuing as going concerns under the Plan, at least some of the claimants within this Class will receive payments in cash, and in all instances any resulting unsecured Deficiency Claim would receive a distribution of at least 10% under the Plan if it were allowed as a Class 4 Claim. In summary, the claimants within this Class would receive at least as much under the Plan as they would receive in a Chapter 7 liquidation, and they could well receive more. D. Class 3. Under a Chapter 7 liquidation, this Class of claimants would not receive anything. In contrast, under the Plan, they will be paid in full. E. Class 4.1 and 4.2. Under a Chapter 7 liquidation, this Class of claimants would receive nothing. In contrast, if Class 4.1 accepts the Plan, Class 4.1 will receive a Cash payment of $900,000 (less any costs of resolving Disputed 4.1 Claims in excess of the $25,000 to be provided by the Debtors therefor), to be distributed, Pro Rata to the Holders of Allowed Class 4.1 Claims (an estimated recovery of approximately 16% to 21% on account of Allowed Class 4.1 Claims), or, if Class 4.1 rejects the Plan, Class 4.1 claimants will receive the distribution of New Class C Common Stock provided by Section 6.4.1.B of the Plan. The Holders of the Class 4.2 Claim will receive a distribution of $500,000 Cash in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.4.2 of the Plan. F. Class 5. The claimants in this Class are consenting to the treatment accorded their Claims under the Plan. Accordingly, the "best interests" test is satisfied as to this Class of claimants. G. Class 6. Under a Chapter 7 liquidation, this Class of claimants would receive nothing. In contrast under the Plan, this Class will receive the Class 6 Warrants. H. Classes 7, 8 & 9. The Interest Holders within these Classes would receive nothing in a Chapter 7 liquidation. Similarly, they will receive nothing under the Plan. Accordingly, the treatment accorded their Interests, being at least equal to what they would receive in a Chapter 7 proceeding, satisfies the "best interests" test. In summary, the Debtors believe that the Creditors of the Estates should receive substantially more under the Plan than they would receive in a Chapter 7 liquidation. Accordingly, the Plan fully satisfies the "best interests" of creditors test. 11.11 Feasibility. In order to confirm the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court must find that confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of the Debtors. This requirement is imposed by Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code and is generally referred to as the "feasibility" requirement. Based upon the cash flow and pro forma income projections attached hereto as Exhibit "4," and the financing being made available through the DIP Facility and Exit Facility, the Debtors believe that they will have sufficient cash on hand as of the Effective Date to meet their Effective Date cash needs, and will be able to satisfy all going forward obligations in the Plan. Accordingly, they believe that the Plan fully satisfies the feasibility requirement. XII EFFECT OF CONFIRMATION OF PLAN 12.1 Discharge.

Within 180 days following the entry of the Confirmation Order, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors shall file a status report with the Bankruptcy Court explaining what progress has been made toward consummation of the confirmed Plan.

If the Bankruptcy Court orders a Case converted to Chapter 7 after the Plan is confirmed, then all property that had been property of such Reorganized Debtor's Estate, and that has not been disbursed pursuant to the Plan, will revest in such Reorganized Debtor's Estate. The automatic stay will be reimposed upon the revested property, but only to the extent that relief from stay was not previously authorized by the Bankruptcy Court during the Case. 17.17 Final Decree. Once an Estate has been fully administered, as referred to in Bankruptcy Rule 3022, the applicable Reorganized Debtor, or other party as the Bankruptcy Court shall designate in the Confirmation Order, shall file a motion with the Court to obtain a final decree to close the Case of such Reorganized Debtor.

Hill, Vice President of Finance and Secretary Date: July 22, 2003 InterDent Service Corporation, a Washington Corporation By: /s/ Robert Hill --------------- Robert W. Hill, President and Vice President of Finance SUBMITTED BY: ------------ Winthrop Couchot, P.C. By: /s/ Robert E. Opera ------------------- Robert E. Opera Marc J. Winthrop Attorneys for InterDent, Inc., and InterDent Service Corporation, debtors-in-possession -------- 1 The reduction in valuation of the Debtors' assets from the 12/31/01 to 12/31/02 balance sheets is attributable to the Debtors' adoption of SFAS 142 during 2002, which requires companies to stop amortizing goodwill and certain intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. Instead, SFAS 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite useful life be reviewed for impairment on an annual basis. The impairment test is to be performed more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change such that it is reasonably possible that an impairment may exist. The Debtors intend to perform their annual impairment review during the fourth quarter of each year. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and certain intangible asset impairment are deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. This methodology differs from the Debtors' previous policy, as permitted under accounting standards existing at that time, of using undiscounted cash flows to determine if goodwill and certain intangible assets are recoverable. Upon adoption of SFAS 142 in the first quarter of 2002, the Debtors recorded a non-cash charge of $89 million to reduce the carrying value of its goodwill and certain intangible assets associated with Dental Practice acquisitions. Such impairment is reflected as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the Debtors' Consolidated Statements of Operations. In calculating the impairment charge, the fair value of the impaired reporting units was estimated using recent industry transactions, industry valuations, or a combination thereof. 2 The reduction in redeemable preferred stock from 12/31/01 to 12/31/02 reflects a conversion of preferred stock to common stock during that time period. 3 For the three months ended March 31, 2003, the InterDent Group had Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted for certain non-recurring items) of $5.5 million. 4 The LL Entities have exercised their right to appoint a member to the Board on several occasions. Most recently, Steven Hartman, currently a Vice President of an LL Entity, was appointed a director of InterDent on October 8, 2002. Mr. Hartman resigned his position on the Board on May 21, 2003. 5 GDMI has been merged into ISC. 6 After adding back depreciation and amortization and adjusting for unusual/nonrecurring items such as restructuring costs and extraordinary professional fees, the Debtors' 2002 adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before Depreciation and Amortization) was approximately $25.0 million. 7 All material facts regarding each acquisition of a Dental Practice were presented to the Debtors' Board of Directors for approval, and each transaction was in fact approved by the Board. Any suggestion by JPMP that the approval process was flawed or driven by something other than legitimate market considerations would seem improvident in light of the fact that a director appointed by JPMP, along with a second director appointed by another holder of Convertible Subordinated Notes, Sprout Capital, and its affiliated entities, not only sat on the Debtors' Board during a substantial part of the 4-year reach back period applicable under state law, but approved each acquisition. JPMP's view on this subject matter, therefore, is inconsistent with JPMP's prior positions on these very acquisitions.
