and without any action on the part of CTI, Merger Corp., P.E.T.Net or any
shareholder of P.E.T.Net, each then issued and outstanding share of stock of
P.E.T.Net will be canceled and retired and converted into common stock of CTI as
follows:

                           (i)      The current shareholders of P.E.T.Net and
their P.E.T.Net shares are as set forth on SCHEDULE 3(A)(I) attached hereto. The
issued and outstanding shares of stock of P.E.T.Net, except for the P.E.T.Net
shares held by CTI, CTI Services, Inc. and Dissenting Shareholders (as defined
in SECTION 4), shall be converted into shares of common stock of CTI on the
basis of 3.6875 shares of P.E.T.Net common stock for one (1) share of CTI common
stock.

                           (ii)     The current participants under the P.E.T.Net
Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan who have the right to receive

officers and directors (the "Employee Stock Options") under the P.E.T.Net

Options shall equal $5.63 per share of


                                       3

CTI common stock. The CTI Stock Options shall be exercisable into whole shares
of CTI common stock only. No fractional shares of CTI common stock shall be
issued upon the exercise of a CTI Stock Option, and no credit will be given to a
fractional share that may result from the conversion ratio between Employee
Stock Options and CTI Stock Options. Following the Effective Date and completion

Options as set forth on SCHEDULE 3(B) a CTI Stock Option pursuant to the CTI
Stock Option Plan on terms and conditions consistent with this Agreement.

deliver to each shareholder of P.E.T.Net and each holder of Capital Event Stock
entitled thereto one or more certificates representing the shares of common
stock of CTI to which such shareholder and holder of Capital Event Stock is
entitled. The CTI common stock certificates shall be promptly delivered after
the P.E.T.Net shareholder or holder of Capital Event Stock has delivered his
certificates of P.E.T.Net stock or Grant Agreements to Capital Event Stock to
Merger Corp for cancellation. Pending the delivery of the P.E.T.Net stock
certificates by a P.E.T.Net shareholder or the Grant Agreement by a holder of
Capital Event Stock after the Effective Date, such P.E.T.Net stock and Capital
Event Stock shall represent shares of common stock in CTI, in which it has been
converted as a part of the Merger.

                  (d)      Following the Merger, CTI shall hold all issued and
outstanding shares of stock of Merger Corp.

                  (e)      Fractional shares of CTI common stock will not be
issued. Each holder of P.E.T.Net and each holder of Capital Event Stock eligible
to receive a fractional interest in a share of CTI common stock shall receive a
cash distribution in lieu of such fractional share in the amount obtained by
multiplying such fraction by $5.63. No interest shall be payable with respect to
payment of such cash distribution.

                  (f)      The shares of CTI common stock received by the
P.E.T.Net shareholders and holders of Capital Event Stock pursuant to the Merger
and the shares of CTI common stock received by holders of Employee Stock Options
upon the exercise of CTI Stock Options after the Merger shall be subject to the
transfer restrictions set forth on EXHIBIT C, and the holders of shares of CTI
common stock received pursuant to the Merger or upon the exercise of CTI Stock
Options after the Merger shall be subject to the non-competition restrictions
set forth on EXHIBIT C. The CTI shares of common stock received by the P.E.T.Net
shareholders and holders of Capital Event Stock pursuant to the Merger and the
shares of CTI common stock received by holders of Employee Stock Options upon
the exercise of CTI Stock Options after the Merger shall bear a legend
reflecting the transfer restrictions set forth on EXHIBIT C. Said transfer and
non-competition restrictions shall, at CTI's option, be reflected in either or
both (i) the Bylaws of CTI to be in effect as of the Effective Date and (ii) in
an agreement executed by the P.E.T.Net shareholders and holders of Capital Event
Stock as a condition to receiving their shares of CTI common stock pursuant to
the Merger and in an agreement executed by the holder of Employee

contrary contained in this Agreement, holders of shares of P.E..T.Net stock with
respect to which dissenters' rights, if any, are granted by reason of the Merger
under the Tennessee Corporation Act and who do not vote in favor of the Merger

payment provided for pursuant to the Tennessee Corporation Act. If any such
Dissenting Shareholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively
withdrawn or lost his dissenters' rights under the Tennessee Corporation Act,
such Dissenting Shareholder's P.E.T.Net stock shall thereupon be deemed to have
been automatically converted into, as of the Effective Date, CTI common stock
pursuant to SECTION 3.

         5.       THE SURVIVING ENTITY. None of the issued and outstanding
shares of stock of Merger Corp shall be converted as a result of the Merger. All
