14                    UNITED STATES v. COLKITT
                              OPINION

PER CURIAM:

   In this appeal, DVI Financial Services, Inc. challenges the district
court’s approval of a complex "global" settlement of several related
cases, essentially contending that the global settlement agreement
failed to recognize DVI’s security interests in assets that were dis-
posed of by the agreement.

   The cases covered by the global settlement agreement arose from
claims that Dr. Douglas Colkitt, Dr. Jerome Derdel, Colkitt’s wife,
and more than 80 healthcare entities (cancer centers and affiliated cor-
porations) owned, operated, or controlled by Colkitt engaged in a
fraudulent billing scheme, causing losses to the federal Medicare and
CHAMPUS programs in excess of $12 million. Drs. Colkitt and Der-
del were physicians specializing in radiation oncology.

   In one action involved in the settlement, the United States prose-
cuted claims against Colkitt, his partners, and his businesses, demand-
ing $86 million in treble damages and penalties.

   The principal business through which Colkitt operated, EquiMed,
Inc., was involuntarily placed into bankruptcy by its creditors, and a
trustee was appointed. The trustee commenced an adversary action
against many of the defendants named by the United States in its
action, seeking to recover for the EquiMed estate losses that were
allegedly caused by fraud, breach of contract, and other similar con-
duct.

   Following EquiMed’s bankruptcy, three subsidiaries of EquiMed
filed voluntary Chapter 11 proceedings, and those proceedings were
consolidated with the EquiMed bankruptcy.

   Contemporaneous with these proceedings, EquiMed and various
other related plaintiffs commenced actions against two insurance
companies, Steadfast Insurance Company and Reliance Insurance
Company, in State court in Pennsylvania, seeking coverage for some
of the losses sustained by EquiMed and other companies. Those cases
                      UNITED STATES v. COLKITT                       15
were removed to federal court and transferred to the District of Mary-
land for consideration in the bankruptcy of EquiMed.

   The parties to these various adversary actions negotiated a complex
settlement agreement that involved the creation of an estate in the
custody of the bankruptcy trustee, the sale of various properties of
EquiMed’s subsidiaries, the modification of related settlement agree-
ments entered into by some of the parties, and various releases.

   DVI, a creditor of EquiMed and some of its subsidiaries, objected
to the global settlement agreement, arguing that its security interest
in various of EquiMed’s assets were not recognized by the agreement.
DVI had provided equipment financing to EquiMed and its subsidia-
ries, and it secured its loans with a security agreement covering the
equipment and other assets of EquiMed including its accounts receiv-
able and contract rights. DVI asserted that its security agreement cov-
ered EquiMed’s interests in management services agreements under
which EquiMed operated the cancer centers in exchange for net prof-
its from those cancer centers. DVI also asserted that it had a security
interest in offset rights in promissory notes given by subsidiaries Key-
stone Oncology, LLC, Oaktree Cancer Care, Inc., and Rosewood
Cancer Care, Inc., all of which were surrendered as part of the settle-
ment agreement.

   The district court rejected DVI’s assertion of security interests in
both the management services agreements and the offset rights in the
surrendered notes. With respect to the management services agree-
ments, the court stated that the agreements could not be characterized
as "accounts receivable" or "contract rights," which were covered by
the security agreement. The court pointed to the fact that the Pennsyl-
vania Uniform Commercial Code, which governed the security agree-
ment, distinguishes "account" from "general intangible," defining
"account" (and "contract right") as "[a]ny right to payment for goods
sold or leased or for services rendered which is not evidenced by an
instrument or chattel paper, whether or not it has been earned by per-
formance," and defining "general intangible" as "[a]ny personal prop-
erty . . . other than goods, accounts, chattel paper, documents,
instruments, investment property and money." 13 Pa. Cons. Stat.
§ 9106; see also U.C.C. § 9-106 Official Comment (stating that the
term "contract right" is included in the definition of "account"). The
16                     UNITED STATES v. COLKITT
court determined that the relationship between EquiMed and the vari-
ous cancer centers to which it supplied management services was a
continuing undertaking rather than a simple contract between the par-
ties for the sale of services. On that basis, the court characterized the
agreements as general intangibles, and because Provident Bank, not
DVI, had the lien on EquiMed’s general intangibles, the court rejected
DVI’s claim to any value in the management service agreements and
any proceeds they contributed to the settlement.

   The district court also stated that even if DVI did hold an interest
in the management services agreements, that interest was likely extin-
guished prior to bankruptcy based on "convincing" evidence that the
agreements were terminated pre-petition. The court also recognized
that any valid interest of DVI in the agreements could not then attach
because, given the extensive network of relationships between the
various corporations owned and operated by Colkitt, settlement of the
adversary proceeding "cannot be characterized as being the recovery
of accounts receivable or contract rights" but rather "the bundle of
various intangible rights" related to the entire operating business of
the cancer centers. The court noted, as an example, that EquiMed’s
right to control the cancer centers derived not only from the manage-
ment services agreements but also from its option to purchase each
center for one dollar.

   With respect to DVI’s claimed interest in the proceeds contributed
to the settlement through the surrender by Keystone, Rosewood, and
Oaktree of their offset rights in the promissory notes, the district court
held that DVI had no lien on the proceeds because DVI had no secur-
ity interest in the rights themselves. The court also found that the
rights were surrendered in exchange for a release from Provident
Bank, the holder of the notes, rather than any release from the trustee
as to liability for fraudulent conveyance of assets subject to interests
claimed by DVI.

   DVI appealed the district court’s order approving the global settle-
ment agreement, asserting the same arguments that it did before the
district court.

  We have carefully reviewed the record and considered the argu-
ments of counsel made in their briefs and at oral argument. For the
                      UNITED STATES v. COLKITT                      17
reasons set forth in the district court’s opinion, see United States ex
rel. Rahman v. Oncology Associates, P.C., CA-95-2241-H, CA-00-
1216-H, BK-00-11147, AP-00-1180-8, CA-01-2676-H, BK-00-

AP-00-1430 (D. Md. Nov. 1, 2001), we affirm the judgment of the
district court.
