(2) The August 1994 Transaction and subsequent acquisitions had a significant impact on the Company's capitalization and equity securities and on the Company's results of operations. Consequently, the Balance Sheet Data as of May 31, 1995 and as of December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 and the Income Statement Data for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1995, for the seven months ended December 31, 1995, and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 are not directly comparable to corresponding information as of prior dates and for prior periods, respectively. (3) General and administrative expenses for the fiscal years ended May 31, 1993 and 1994 include overhead allocations by the Company's former parent of $235,000 and $1,458,000, respectively. The overhead allocations for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1993 were made using a different methodology than that used in the fiscal year ended May 31, 1994 and the substantial increase in that year reflects this change in methodology rather than a change in the level of services provided. No overhead allocation was made for the period from March 1, 1994 through the closing of the August 1994 Transaction, at which time the Company began to record general and administrative expenses as incurred on a stand-alone basis. General and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1994 also reflect $458,000 in expenses relating to a terminated equity offering. (4) In December 1995, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $2,555,000 or $0.04 per share, net of tax, on the early extinguishment of debt. In July and September 1996, the Company recorded a combined extraordinary loss of $7,700,000 or $0.10 per share net of tax, on the early extinguishment of debt. See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. (5) See additional income per share information in the Consolidated Statements of Income. No income per share information is presented for the years ended May 31, 1993 and 1994 as the Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary during those periods. (6) Mandatorily redeemable Common Stock represents shares of Common Stock issued in certain acquisitions subject to put options that terminated upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. (7) In connection with the August 1994 Transaction, the Company paid a special dividend to Tenet Healthcare Corporation ("Tenet") of $81.7 million, including $75.5 million in cash. (8) The consolidated income statement data combine the Company's results of operations for the years ended May 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, the seven months ended December 31, 1994 and 1995 and the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 with RTC's results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1992, 1993 and 1994, the six months ended December 31, 1994 and 1995 and the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997. (9) The consolidated balance sheet data combine the Company's balance sheet as of May 31, 1993, 1994, 1995 and December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 with RTC's balance sheet as of December 31, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1997. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. The following should be read in conjunction with the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K. BACKGROUND The Company's wholly owned subsidiary Total Renal Care, Inc., formerly Medical Ambulatory Care, Inc., was organized in 1979 by Tenet Healthcare Corporation ("Tenet," formerly National Medical Enterprises, Inc.), to own and operate Tenet's hospital-based dialysis services as freestanding dialysis facilities and to acquire and develop additional dialysis facilities in Tenet's markets. The Company was organized to facilitate the August 1994 Transaction which consisted of the sale by Tenet of approximately 75% of its ownership interest to DLJ Merchant Banking Partners, L.P. and certain of its affiliates ("DLJMB"), management of the Company and certain holders of debt securities of the Company. In connection with the August 1994 Transaction, the 2 Company, NME Properties Corporation (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tenet), Tenet and DLJMB entered into a number of agreements relating to, among other things, corporate governance, the provision of certain services to the Company by Tenet, and restrictions on stock transfers. In the August 1994 Transaction, the Company paid a special dividend of $81.7 million, including $75.5 million in cash, to Tenet out of the net proceeds from (i) the issuance of units consisting of $100 million in principal amount at maturity of 12% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes due 2004 (the "Discount Notes"), which were issued at approximately 70% of par, and 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock and (ii) borrowing under the Company's revolving credit facility with The Bank of New York (the "TRC Credit Facility"). The Company raised additional capital to fund the continuation of its growth strategy through an initial public offering ("IPO") on October 30, 1995 in which the Company issued and sold 11,500,000 shares of its Common Stock and raised gross proceeds of $107 million. Concurrent with the IPO, the Company listed its Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "TRL." Subsequent to the IPO, the Company changed its fiscal year end from May 31 to December 31. The Company raised additional capital to further fund its growth strategy with two secondary stock offerings in April and October of 1996 which raised gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $135 million. In October of 1996 the Company increased its credit facility with the Bank of New York from $130 million to $400 million (the "Credit Facility"). With the proceeds from the IPO, the April 1996 secondary offering and the Credit Facility, the Company was able to complete the early retirement of the Discount Notes. On October 24, 1997, the Company increased the Credit Facility to an aggregate of $1,050,000,000 in two bank facilities ("the Credit Facilities"). Following the August 1994 Transaction, the Company implemented a focused strategy to increase net operating revenues per treatment and improve operating income margins. The Company has significantly increased per- treatment revenues through the addition of in-house clinical laboratory and pharmacy services, improved pricing, and increased utilization of ancillary services. To improve operating income, the Company began a systematic review of the Company's vendor relations leading to the renegotiation of a number of supply contracts and insurance arrangements that reduced operating expenses. In addition the Company has focused on improving facility operating efficiencies and leveraging corporate and regional management. These improvements have been offset in part by increased amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets relating to the Company's acquisitions (all of which have been accounted for as purchase transactions, except the Merger) and start-up expenses related to de novo developments. The Company incurred approximately $70.4 million of indebtedness as a result of the August 1994 Transaction. The related interest expense had a significant impact on the Company's results of operations for subsequent periods. The Company's results of operations for these periods have also been materially affected by the implementation of the Company's growth strategy subsequent to the August 1994 Transaction. On February 27, 1998 the Company acquired Renal Treatment Centers, Inc. ("RTC"), with headquarters in Berwyn, Pennsylvania (the "Merger"). In connection with the Merger, the Company issued 34,565,729 shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of RTC common stock. The RTC merger transaction has been accounted for as a pooling of interests and as such, the consolidated financial statements have been restated to include RTC for all periods presented as described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. NET OPERATING REVENUES Net operating revenues are derived primarily from four sources: (i) outpatient facility hemodialysis services, (ii) ancillary services, including EPO administration, clinical laboratory services and intravenous and oral pharmaceutical products and services, (iii) home dialysis services and related products and (iv) inpatient hemodialysis services provided to hospitalized patients pursuant to arrangements with hospitals. Additional revenues are derived from the provision of dialysis facility management services to certain subsidiaries and affiliated and unaffiliated dialysis centers. The Company's dialysis and ancillary services are reimbursed primarily under the Medicare ESRD program in accordance with rates established by HCFA. Payments are also provided by other third party payors, generally at rates higher than those reimbursed by Medicare for up to the 3 first 21 months of treatment as mandated by law. Rates paid for services provided to hospitalized patients are negotiated with individual hospitals. For the year ended May 31, 1995, approximately 65% and 7% of the Company's net operating revenues were derived from reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid, respectively. For the seven months ended December 31, 1995, approximately 55% and 6% of the Company's net operating revenues were derived from reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1997, approximately 60% and 56%, respectively, and 5% and 5%, respectively of the Company's net operating revenues were derived from reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid, respectively. See "Item 1. Business--Operations--Sources of Revenue Reimbursement."

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth for the periods indicated selected information expressed as a percentage of net operating revenues for such periods: SEVEN MONTHS ENDED YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, MAY 31, -------------- ---------------------------- 1995 1994 1995 1995 1996 1997 ---------- ------ ------ -------- -------- -------- Net operating revenues.. 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Facility operating expenses............... 68.4 68.3 65.3 66.3 69.1 67.1 General and administrative expenses............... 8.3 8.3 6.9 7.0 6.5 6.6 Provision for doubtful accounts............... 2.6 2.9 2.6 2.5 3.2 2.7 Depreciation and amortization........... 5.8 5.8 6.1 6.2 6.5 7.2 Merger expenses......... .3 .7 .6 Operating income........ 15.0 14.8 18.9 17.2 14.2 16.4 Interest expense, net of interest income........ 3.6 3.1 3.9 3.9 1.9 3.3 Income taxes............ 3.7 3.9 5.6 4.6 4.6 5.3 Minority interests...... .7 .7 1.0 .8 .7 .6 Income before extraordinary item..... 7.0 7.0 8.3 7.8 6.9 7.2 4 Year Ended December 31, 1997 compared to Year Ended December 31, 1996 Net Operating Revenues. Net operating revenues increased $262,973,000 to $760,997,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 ("Year End 1997") from $498,024,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 ("Year End 1996") representing a 52.8% increase. Of this increase $257,113,000 was due to increased treatments from acquisitions, existing facility growth and from de novo developments. The remainder was due to an increase in net operating revenues per treatment which were $224.37 in Year End 1997 compared to $222.64 in Year End 1996. The increase in operating revenues per treatment was due to increases in ancillary services utilization and in affiliated and unaffiliated facility management fees. Facility Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses consist of costs and expenses specifically attributable to the operation of dialysis facilities, including operating and maintenance costs of such facilities, equipment, direct labor, and supply and service costs relating to patient care. Facility operating expenses increased $166,810,000 to $510,990,000 in Year End 1997 from $344,180,000 in Year End 1996 and as a percentage of net operating revenues, facility operating expenses decreased to 67.1% in Year End 1997 from 69.1% in Year End 1996. This decrease is mostly due to improvements in labor and pharmaceutical costs as a percentage of revenues partially offset by an increase in other facility expenses, consisting primarily of rent and medical director fees. In December 1996, the Company implemented its best demonstrated practices program which focuses primarily upon deriving efficiencies in labor and supply costs. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses include headquarters expense and administrative, legal, quality assurance, information systems and centralized accounting support functions. General and administrative expenses increased $17,749,000 to $50,099,000 in Year End 1997 from $32,350,000 in Year End 1996, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, general and administrative expenses increased to 6.6% for Year End 1997 from 6.5% in Year End 1996. The increase was due to additional corporate labor resources added to further the Company's growth via acquisitions proportionately in excess of revenue growth. Provision for Doubtful Accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts increased $4,788,000 to $20,525,000 in Year End 1997 from $15,737,000 in Year End 1996. As a percentage of net operating revenues, the provision for doubtful accounts decreased to 2.7% in Year End 1997 from 3.2% in Year End 1996, due to better management of the collection process for patient secondary balances remaining after Medicare, as the primary payor, has paid 80% of the claim. Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $22,158,000 to $54,603,000 in Year End 1997 from $32,445,000 in Year End 1996, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, depreciation and amortization increased to 7.2% in Year End 1997 from 6.5% in Year End 1996. This increase was attributable to increased amortization due to acquisition activity and increased depreciation from new center leaseholds and routine capital expenditures. Merger Expenses. There were no merger expenses for the year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to $2,808,000 for the same period in 1996. For the year ended December 31, 1996, merger expenses were incurred as a result of the mergers by RTC which were completed during 1996 and were accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting. Merger expenses include investment banking, legal, accounting and other fees and expenses. Operating Income. Operating income increased $54,276,000 to $124,780,000 in Year End 1997 from $70,504,000 in Year End 1996, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, operating income increased to 16.4% in Year End 1997 from 14.2% in Year End 1996. This increase in operating income as a percentage of net operating revenue reflects a decrease in facility operating costs and the provision for doubtful accounts offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization. Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, increased $15,480,000 to $25,039,000 in Year End 1997 from $9,559,000 in Year End 1996, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, interest expense, net of interest income, was 3.3% in Year End 1997 and 1.9% in Year End 1996. Cash interest expense during Year End 1997 was $28,214,000 and non-cash interest during the same period was $0 versus $9,021,000 and $4,396,000 in Year End 1996, respectively. Non-cash interest expense during Year End 1996 was related to the Company's Discount Notes which were completely retired through an early extinguishment during the third 5 quarter of 1996. The increase in cash interest expense was due primarily to an increase in borrowings made under the Company's credit facilities to fund the Company's acquisitions. Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes increased $17,252,000 to $40,212,000 in Year End 1997 from $22,960,000 in Year End 1996, and the effective income tax rate after minority interests increased to 42.2% in Year End 1997 from 40.0% in Year End 1996. The overall increase in the effective tax rate primarily reflects non-deductible goodwill associated with stock acquired, and to foreign net operating losses, for which no benefit was recognized during 1997, from businesses in Argentina. Minority Interests. Minority interests represent the pretax income earned by physicians who directly or indirectly own minority interests in the Company's partnership affiliates and the net income in two of the Company's corporate subsidiaries. Minority interests increased $924,000 to $4,502,000 in Year End 1997 from $3,578,000 in Year End 1996, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, minority interest decreased to 0.6% in Year End 1997 from 0.7% in Year End 1996. This decrease in minority interest as a percentage of net operating revenues is a result of a relative proportionate decrease in the formation of partnership affiliates and subsidiaries as a percentage of total new acquisitions. Year Ended December 31, 1996 compared to Year Ended December 31, 1995 Net Operating Revenues. Net operating revenues increased $198,613,000 to $498,024,000 for Year End 1996 from $299,411,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 ("Year End 1995") representing a 66.3% increase. Of this increase $191,811,000 was due to increased treatments from acquisitions, existing facility growth and from de novo developments. The remainder was due to an increase in net operating revenues per treatment which were $222.64 in Year End 1996 compared to $219.60 in Year End 1995. The increase in net operating revenues per treatment was due to the addition of the Company's ESRD laboratory in 1995 resulting in a full year of revenue in 1996, an overall increase in average reimbursement rates, increased ancillary services utilization primarily in the administration of EPO, the opening of the Company's oral pharmaceutical and IV therapy program, and an increase in affiliated and unaffiliated facility management fees. Facility Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses increased $145,526,000 to $344,180,000 in Year End 1996 from $198,654,000 in Year End 1995 and as a percentage of net operating revenues, facility operating expenses increased to 69.1% in Year End 1996 from 66.3% in Year End 1995. In Year End 1996 the increase in facility operating expenses as a percentage of revenue primarily was due to increased labor and benefits partially incurred as a result of utilizing existing employees of the acquired facilities during transition periods after the acquisitions. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $11,350,000 to $32,350,000 in Year End 1996 from $21,000,000 in Year End 1995, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, general and administrative expenses declined to 6.5% in Year End 1996 from 7.0% in Year End 1995. This decline as a percentage of net revenue is a result of revenue growth and economies of scale achieved through the leveraging of corporate staff across a higher revenue base. Provision for Doubtful Accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts increased $8,157,000 to $15,737,000 in Year End 1996 from $7,580,000 in Year End 1995, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, provision for doubtful accounts increased to 3.2% in Year End 1996 from 2.5% in Year End 1995. The increase is due to the recognition of an increase in uncollectible accounts, primarily patient secondary amounts remaining after Medicare, as the primary payor, paid 80% of the bill. The decrease in collectibility was caused by RTC's conversion to a new system in late 1995. Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $13,842,000 to $32,445,000 in Year End 1996 from $18,603,000 in Year End 1995, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, depreciation and amortization increased to 6.5% in Year End 1996 from 6.2% in Year End 1995. This increase was attributable to increased amortization due to acquisition activity and increased depreciation from new center leaseholds and routine capital expenditures. 6 Merger Expenses. Merger expenses increased 34.5% to $2,808,000 for the Year End December 31,1996 from $2,088,000 for Year End 1995. The merger expenses represented expenses incurred in connection with the completed mergers by RTC which were accounted for under the pooling-of-interest method of accounting. Merger expenses include investment banking, legal, accounting and other fees and expenses. Operating Income. Operating income increased $19,018,000 to $70,504,000 in Year End 1996 from $51,486,000 in Year End 1995, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, operating income decreased to 14.2% in Year End 1996 from 17.2% in Year End 1995. This decrease in operating income as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to an increase in facility operating expenses, provision for doubtful accounts and depreciation and amortization partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net operating revenues. Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $2,242,000 to $9,559,000 in Year End 1996 from $11,801,000 in Year End 1995, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, interest expense, net of interest income, was 1.9% in Year End 1996 and 3.9% in Year End 1995. Cash interest expense during Year End 1996 was $9,021,000 and non-cash interest during the same period was $4,396,000 versus $3,929,000 and $8,901,000 in Year End 1995, respectively. The decrease in Year End 1996 non-cash interest expense was due primarily to the early extinguishment of a portion of the Discount Notes in December of 1995 and the remainder in the third quarter of the year ended December 31, 1996 (as discussed in "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below), and short term investment income earned on excess proceeds from the public stock offerings in April and October, 1996. Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes increased $9,119,000 to $22,960,000 in Year End 1996 from $13,841,000 in Year End 1995, and the effective income tax rate before minority interests increased to 40.0% in Year End 1996 from 37.3% in Year End 1995. The overall increase in the effective tax rate reflects an increase in the blended state rates and additional non- deductible goodwill associated with certain acquisitions of stock. Minority Interests. Minority interests increased $1,034,000 to $3,578,000 in Year End 1996 from $2,544,000 in Year End 1995, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, minority interest decreased to 0.7% in Year End 1996 from 0.8% in Year End 1995. This decrease in minority interest as a percentage of net operating revenues is a result of a relative proportionate decrease in the formation of partnership affiliates and subsidiaries as a percentage of total new acquisitions. Extraordinary Loss. In December 1995 the Company redeemed 35% of the accreted value of the Discount Notes for a total redemption price of $31,912,000. In connection with this redemption, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $2,555,000 (net of income tax effect). In July and September 1996, the Company retired all remaining outstanding Notes for a total redemption price of $68,499,000. In connection with these redemptions, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $7,700,000 (net of income tax effect). Seven Months Ended December 31, 1995 compared to Seven Months Ended December 31, 1994 Net Operating Revenues. Net operating revenues increased $54,398,000 to $176,463,000 for the seven months ended December 31, 1995 ("1995 Seven Month Period") from $122,065,000 for the seven months ended December 31, 1994 ("1994 Seven Month Period") representing a 44.6% increase. The increase was due to increased treatments from acquisitions, existing facility growth and de novo developments. The remaining increase was attributable to an increase in affiliated and unaffiliated facility management fees, the addition of TRC's ESRD laboratory, an overall increase in reimbursement rates, increased ancillary services utilization primarily in the administration of EPO and the opening of the Company's oral pharmaceutical and IV therapy program. Facility Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses increased $31,849,000 to $115,219,000 in the 1995 Seven Month Period from $83,370,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period and as a percentage of net 7 operating revenues, facility operating expenses declined to 65.3% in the 1995 Seven Month Period from 68.3% in the 1994 Seven Month Period. In the 1995 Seven Month Period the decrease in facility operating expenses as a percentage of revenue was due to substantial reductions achieved in the costs of providing services, including medical and pharmaceutical supplies, and overall labor resource efficiencies. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $2,018,000 to $12,117,000 in the 1995 Seven Month Period from $10,099,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, general and administrative expenses declined to 6.9% in the 1995 Seven Month Period from 8.3% in the 1994 Seven Month Period. This decline as a percentage of net revenue is a result of revenue growth and economies of scale achieved through the leveraging of corporate staff across a higher revenue base. Provision for Doubtful Accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts increased $1,066,000 to $4,552,000 in the 1995 Seven Month Period from $3,486,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, provision for doubtful accounts decreased to 2.6% in the 1995 Seven Month Period from 2.9% in the 1994 Seven Month Period. The provision for doubtful accounts is influenced by the amount of net operating revenues generated from non-governmental payor sources. The decrease for the 1995 Seven Month Period reflects better management of accounts receivable, including increased collection efforts, billing accuracy and improved preauthorization procedures with payors. Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $3,710,000 to $10,808,000 in the 1995 Seven Month Period from $7,098,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, depreciation and amortization increased to 6.1% in the 1995 Seven Month Period from 5.8% in the 1994 Seven Month Period. This increase was attributable to increased amortization due to acquisition activity and increased depreciation from new center leaseholds and routine capital expenditures. Merger Expenses. Merger expenses in the 1995 Seven Month Period were the expenses incurred as a result of the RTC merger completed on August 1, 1995 which was accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting. These expenses included fees for the investment banker, attorneys, accountants, and various other expenses incurred as a result of combining the companies. Operating Income. Operating income increased $15,255,000 to $33,267,000 in the 1995 Seven Month Period from $18,012,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, operating income increased to 18.9% in the 1995 Seven Month Period from 14.8% in the 1994 Seven Month Period. This increase in operating income reflects a decrease in facility operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, and the provision for doubtful accounts, slightly offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization, all as a percentage of net operating revenues. Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, increased $2,993,000 to $6,831,000 in the 1995 Seven Month Period from $3,838,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, interest expense, net of interest income, was 3.9% in the 1995 Seven Month Period and 3.1% in the 1994 Seven Month Period. Cash interest expense during the 1995 Seven Month Period was $2,466,000 and non-cash interest during the same period was $5,228,000 versus $1,198,000 and $3,274,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period, respectively. The increase in the 1995 Seven Month Period cash interest expense was due primarily to increased borrowing under the TRC Credit Facility and the increase in non cash interest expense was due to the August 11, 1994 issuance of the Discount Notes, which resulted in four and a half months of interest expense recognized in the 1994 Seven Month Period as compared to a full seven months of interest expense recognized in the 1995 Seven Month Period. In addition, interest accrued in the 1995 Seven Month Period on a higher accreted principal amount through December 7, 1995, on which date the Company redeemed 35% of the principal amount of the Discount Notes at maturity. Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes increased $5,172,000 to $9,931,000 in the 1995 Seven Month Period from $4,759,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period, and the effective income tax rate after minority interests increased to 40.3% in the 1995 Seven Month Period from 35.8% in the 1994 Seven Month Period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the blended state tax rates. 8 Minority Interests. Minority interests increased $906,000 to $1,784,000 in the 1995 Seven Month Period from $878,000 in the 1994 Seven Month Period, and as a percentage of net operating revenues, minority interest increased to 1.0% in the 1995 Seven Month Period from 0.7% in the 1994 Seven Month Period. This increase in minority interest as a percentage of revenue is a result of increased profitability at these partnership affiliates and subsidiaries and an increase in the number of company facilities owned by such partnership affiliates. Extraordinary Loss. On December 7, 1995 the Company redeemed 35% of the accreted value of the Discount Notes at a redemption premium of 111% for a total redemption price of $31,912,000. In connection with this redemption, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $2,555,000 (net of income tax effect) in December 1995. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Sources and Uses of Cash. Net cash provided by operating activities of the Company was $21,279,000, $30,926,000, $14,393,000 and $19,305,000 for Year End 1997, Year End 1996, 1995 Seven Month Period and the fiscal year ended May 31, 1995, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities consists of the Company's net income, increased by an extraordinary item related to the early extinguishment of debt (for the 1995 Seven Month Period and Year End 1996) and non-cash expenses such as depreciation, amortization, accreted interest and the provision for doubtful accounts, and adjusted by changes in components of working capital, primarily accounts receivable. Net cash used in investing activities was $526,217,000, $273,069,000, $47,973,000 and $83,156,000 for Year End 1997, Year End 1996, 1995 Seven Month Period and the fiscal year ended May 31, 1995, respectively. The Company's principal uses of cash in investing activities have been related to acquisitions, purchases of new equipment and leasehold improvements for the Company's outpatient facilities, as well as the development of new outpatient facilities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $489,754,000 for Year End 1997 consisting primarily of proceeds from the Company's Credit Facilities, $225,058,000 for Year End 1996 consisting primarily of net proceeds from two public issuances of common stock, net proceeds from the Credit Facility and proceeds from issuance of the RTC Convertible Subordinated Notes, offset by amounts paid in connection with the remaining Discount Notes; $67,003,000 for the 1995 Seven Month Period consisting primarily of net proceeds from the IPO, less amounts paid in connection with the redemption of 35% of the outstanding Discount Notes and net payments of borrowings under the Credit Facility; and $66,571,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1995, consisting primarily of debt and equity offering proceeds, and borrowings under the Credit Facility, net of cash dividends paid to Tenet. Expansion. The Company anticipates aggregate capital requirements for purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements for outpatient facilities including the development costs of 30 de novo facilities after March 31, 1998 will be approximately $40,000,000. The Company's strategy is to continue to expand its operations both through development of de novo centers and through acquisitions. The development of a typical outpatient facility generally requires $800,000 to $1,200,000 for initial construction and equipment and $200,000 to $300,000 for working capital. Based on the Company's experience, a de novo facility typically achieves operating profitability, before depreciation and amortization, by the 12th to 15th month of operation. However, the period of time for a de novo facility to break even is dependent on many factors which can vary significantly from facility to facility, and, therefore, the Company's past experience may not be indicative of the performance of future de novo facilities. From January 1, 1998 through March 31, 1998 the Company has paid approximately $51 million in consideration for acquisitions of nine facilities and a pharmacy operation. Additionally, the Company has entered into letters of intent to acquire additional facilities for approximately $100 million. Credit Facilities. On October 24, 1997, the Company expanded its existing $400 million Credit Facility to an aggregate of $1,050,000,000 in two bank facilities. The Credit Facilities consist of a seven-year $800 million revolving credit facility and a ten-year $250 million term facility. Under the revolving credit 9 facility, up to $100,000,000 may be used in connection with letters of credit, and up to $15,000,000 in short-term funds may be borrowed the same day notice is given to the banks under a "Swing Line" facility. Up to $75,000,000 of the available letters of credit or borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be utilized for foreign financing. In general, borrowings under the Credit Facilities bear interest at one of two floating rates selected by the Company: (i) the Alternate Base Rate (defined as the higher of The Bank of New York's prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 0.5%); or (ii) Adjusted LIBOR (defined as the 30-, 60-, 90- or 180-day London Interbank Offered Rate, adjusted for statutory reserves) plus a margin that ranges from 0.45% to 1.75% depending on the Company's leverage ratio. Swing Line borrowings bear interest at either a rate negotiated by the Company and the banks at the time of borrowing or, if no rate is negotiated and agreed upon, the Alternate Base Rate. The Credit Facilities contain financial and operating covenants including, among other things, requirements that the Company maintain certain financial ratios and satisfy certain financial tests, and imposes limitations on the Company's ability to make capital expenditures, to incur other indebtedness and to pay dividends. As of the date hereof, the Company is in compliance with all such covenants. On November 25, 1996, the Company entered into a seven year interest rate swap agreement involving the exchange of fixed and floating interest payment obligations without the exchange of the underlying principal amounts. At December 31, 1997 the total notional principal amount of this interest rate swap agreement was $100,000,000 and the effective interest rate thereon was 7.57%. On July 24, 1997, the Company entered into a ten-year interest rate swap agreement. At December 31, 1997 the total notional principal amount of this interest rate swap agreement was $200,000,000 and the effective interest rate thereon was 7.77%. Stock Split. On September 30, 1997 the Company declared a five-for-three split of its Common Stock in the form of a stock dividend. Stockholders of record on October 7, 1997 received two additional shares of the Company's Common Stock for every three shares owned. The dividend shares were delivered to the record stockholders on October 20, 1997. The Company issued a cash dividend for all fractional shares of approximately $14,000 which was also paid on October 20, 1997. Year 2000 Risks. Certain of the Company's older computer software programs identify years with two digits instead of four. This is likely to cause problems because the programs may recognize the year 2000 as the year 1900. Plans are in the process to eliminate all Year 2000 software problems. The Company fully expects to complete the necessary conversions by the end of the second quarter of 1999. The Company believes that the cost of modifying those systems that were not already scheduled for replacement for business reasons prior to 2000 is immaterial. Although the Company does not expect Year 2000 to have a material adverse effect on its internal operations, it is possible that Year 2000 problems could have a significant adverse effect on (i) the Company's suppliers and their ability to service the Company and to accurately process payments received and (ii) the ability of certain third party insurance payors and governmental payors, such as Medicare and the individual state Medicaid programs, to accurately process remittance (payments) on patient accounts receivable due to the Company.

In our opinion, based upon our audits and the report of other auditors, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, of stockholders' equity, and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1996 and 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended May 31, 1995, the seven months ended December 31, 1995 and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of Renal Treatment Centers, Inc. (RTC) a wholly-owned subsidiary, which statements reflect total assets of $293,948,000 and $585,494,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively, and total revenues of $115,457,000; $86,752,000; $225,077,000 and $322,792,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994, the six months ended December 31, 1995, and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for RTC, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

The financial statements for the Companies reflect 22 percent of total consolidated net patient revenue for the year ended December 31, 1994. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it related to the amounts included for Wichita Dialysis Group and Healthcare Corporation and Affiliates, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information required to included therein.

F-8 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. (the Company) operates kidney dialysis facilities and provides related medical services in Medicare certified dialysis facilities in various geographic sectors of the United States and also in Argentina, Puerto Rico, Europe and Guam. The Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tenet Healthcare Corporation ("Tenet", formerly National Medical Enterprises, Inc.) until August 1994. In August 1994, the Company completed a public offering of senior subordinated notes and common stock, the proceeds of which were used to partially fund a dividend to Tenet. Immediately after payment of the dividend, Donaldson, Lufkin, Jenrette Merchant Banking Funding, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (DLJMB) and certain members of management acquired newly issued common stock of the Company to effect a change in control of the Company. Although there was a change in control, the Company's accounts were not adjusted from their historical bases due to the significant continuing ownership interest of Tenet. On February 27, 1998 the Company acquired Renal Treatment Centers, Inc. ("RTC"), with headquarters in Berwyn, Pennsylvania ("Merger"). In connection with the Merger, the Company issued 34,565,729 shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of RTC common stock. RTC shareholders received 1.335 shares of the Company's common stock for each share of RTC common stock that they owned. The Company also issued 2,156,424 options in substitution for previously outstanding RTC stock options, including 1,662,354 of the vested options that were exercised on the merger date or shortly thereafter. In addition, the Company guaranteed $125,000,000 of RTC's 5 5/8% subordinated convertible notes. In conjunction with this transaction, the Board and the Company's stockholders authorized an additional 140,000,000 share of common stock. The RTC merger transaction has been accounted for as a pooling of interests and as such, the consolidated financial statements have been restated to include RTC for all periods presented. RTC has always used a December 31 year end while the Company used a May 31 year end until May 31, 1995 after which it changed to a December 31 fiscal year end. Accordingly, the restated consolidated financial statements combine the Company's balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, the seven month period ended December 31, 1995 and the twelve months ended May 31, 1995 with RTC's balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, the six months ended December 31, 1995 and the twelve months ended December 31, 1994, respectively. Net revenue and net income of RTC for the six month period ended June 30, 1995 was $77,816,000 and $6,377,000, respectively, with the net income reflected as an adjustment to retained earnings effective July 1, 1995. See Note 17. There were no transactions between the Company and RTC prior to the combination and immaterial adjustments were recorded to conform RTC's accounting policies. Certain reclassifications were made to the RTC financial statements to conform to the Company's presentations. Basis of presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned and majority-owned corporate subsidiaries and partnership investments. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In February 1996, RTC acquired, through two separate transactions, Intercontinental Medical Services, Inc. ("IMS") and Midwest Dialysis Unit and its affiliates (collectively "MDU"). Each of the transactions was separately accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. The consolidated financial statements include the results of IMS and MDU as of January 1, 1996. Prior year financial statements have not been restated to reflect these transactions because the effect of such transactions is not material. F-9 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) In July 1996, RTC acquired Panama City Artificial Kidney Center, Inc. and North Florida Artificial Kidney Center, Inc. (collectively "the Group"). In July 1995, RTC acquired Wichita Dialysis Center, P.A., Southeast Kansas Dialysis Center, P.A., Garden City Dialysis Center, P.A. and Wichita Dialysis Center, East, P.A. (the "Wichita Companies"). In March 1995, RTC acquired Healthcare Corporation and its affiliates (collectively, "HCC"). These transactions were accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared to give retroactive effect to the mergers. Net operating revenues Revenues are recognized when services and related products are provided to patients in need of ongoing life sustaining kidney dialysis treatments. Operating revenues consist primarily of dialysis and ancillary fees from patient treatments. These amounts are reported at the amounts expected to be realized from governmental and third-party payors, patients and others for services provided. Appropriate allowances are established based upon credit risk of specific third-party payors, historical trends and other factors and are reflected in the provision for doubtful accounts as a component of operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income. During the years ended May 31, 1995, the seven months ended December 31, 1995 and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997, the Company received approximately 72%, 61%, 65% and 61%, respectively, of its dialysis revenues from Medicare and Medicaid programs. Accounts receivable from Medicare and Medicaid amounted to $119,611,000 and $205,564,000 as of December 31, 1996, and 1997, respectively. Medicare historically pays approximately 80% of government established rates for services provided by the Company. The remaining 20% is typically paid by state Medicaid programs, private insurance companies or directly by the patients receiving the services. Medicare and Medicaid programs funded by the U.S. government generally reimburse the Company under prospective payment systems at amounts different from the Company's established private rates. Revenues under these programs are generally recognized at prospective rates which are subject to periodic adjustment by federal and state agencies. The Company bills non-governmental third-party payors at established private rates. The Company has contracts for the provision of dialysis services to members of certain managed care organizations which generally include rate provisions at less than the established private rates. In August 1993, the provisions of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 ("OBRA 93") became effective. The OBRA 93 provisions were originally interpreted by the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) to modify the requirements that employer group health sponsored insurance plans (private payors) be the primary payor for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who subsequently become dually entitled to Medicare benefits because of ESRD following initial eligibility under age or disability provisions. In July 1994, HCFA instructed the Medicare fiscal intermediaries to retroactively apply the provisions of OBRA 93 to August 10, 1993. In April 1995, HCFA issued instructions of clarification to the fiscal intermediaries that it had misinterpreted the OBRA regulations and that Medicare would continue as the primary payor after dual eligibility was achieved under the ESRD provision. In January 1998, a permanent injunction was issued by a federal court preventing HCFA from retroactively applying its reinterpretation of the OBRA 93 regulations as unlawful retroactive rule-making. Accordingly, the Company has recognized as revenue payments from private payors in excess of the revenue previously recognized at lower rates which are attributable to such patients. As a Medicare and Medicaid provider, the Company is subject to extensive regulation by both the federal government and the states in which the Company conducts its business. Due to heightened awareness of federal and state budgets, scrutiny is being placed on the health care industry, potentially subjecting the Company to regulatory investigation and changes in billing procedures. The provisions of the Kennedy-Kassebaum legislation issued January 1, 1997 may limit the Company's ability to pay for policy premiums for patients even with proven financial hardship. However, the Company F-10 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) believes that the bill did not intend to limit the Company's ability to pay premiums for insurance coverage to third-party or governmental payors. In the Fall of 1997, the Office of Inspector General of the HHS issued an advisory opinion which would allow the Company to make grants to a foundation that may provide for such premium payments on behalf of ESRD patients. In addition, legislation is currently pending which would permit the Company to pay premiums for insurance coverage for patients with proven financial hardship. Cash and cash equivalents Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Investments Investments were comprised of investments in corporate bonds and government and government agency securities. Investment income is recognized when earned and realized gains and losses are recognized on a trade date basis, computed based on original cost. The investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair market value. All investments were managed by one financial institution. Subsequent to December 31, 1996, all investments were liquidated, resulting in an immaterial realized gain. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist principally of drugs and dialysis related supplies. Property and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization expense are computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets estimated as follows: buildings, 20 to 40 years; leaseholds and improvements, over the shorter of their estimated useful life or the lease term; and equipment, 3 to 15 years. Capitalized interest The Company capitalizes interest associated with the costs of significant facility expansion and construction. Interest is capitalized by using an interest rate which is equal to the weighted average borrowing rate on the Company's long-term debt. Approximately $685,000 in interest expense was capitalized for the year ended December 31, 1997. Intangible assets Business acquisition costs allocated to patient lists are amortized generally over five to eight years using the straight-line method. Business acquisition costs allocated to covenants not to compete are amortized over the terms of the agreements, typically three to eleven years, using the straight- line method. Deferred debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest method. Pre-opening and development costs, included in other intangible assets, are amortized over five years. The excess of aggregate purchase price over the fair value of net assets of businesses acquired is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is amortized over 15 to 40 years using the straight-line method. The carrying value of intangible assets is assessed for any permanent impairment by evaluating the operating performance and future undiscounted cash flows from operations of the underlying businesses. Adjustments are made if the sum of the expected future undiscounted net cash flows is less than book value. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of (SFAS 121), requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. F-11 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach, which requires recognition of deferred income taxes for all temporary differences between the tax and financial reporting bases of the Company's assets and liabilities based on enacted tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Following the change in control described above, the Company's results of operations were no longer included in Tenet's consolidated federal and applicable unitary state income tax returns. For financial reporting purposes, the provision for income taxes through August 11 of the first quarter of fiscal year 1995 was calculated as if the Company filed separate federal and state income tax returns. Minority interests Minority interests represent the proportionate equity interest of other partners and stockholders in the Company's consolidated entities which are not wholly owned. As of December 31, 1997, these included 29 active partnerships and corporations. Stock-based compensation During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123). This pronouncement requires the Company to elect to account for stock-based compensation on a fair value based model or an intrinsic value based model. The intrinsic value based model is currently used by the Company and is the accounting principle prescribed by Accounting Principles Board No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). Under this model, compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the date of grant or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The fair value based model prescribed by SFAS 123 requires the Company to value stock-based compensation using an accepted valuation model. Compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and would be recognized over the service period which is usually the vesting period. SFAS 123 requires the Company to either reflect the results of the valuation in the consolidated financial statements or alternatively continue to apply the provisions of APB 25 and make appropriate disclosure of the impact of such valuation in the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. The Company has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB 25 to their employee stock-based compensation plans and therefore has included the required disclosure of the pro forma impact on net income and earnings per share of the difference between compensation expense using the intrinsic value method and the fair value method (see Note 10). Earnings per share In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share ("SFAS 128"). The Company adopted SFAS 128 in the fourth quarter of 1997, as required by this pronouncement. SFAS 128 establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income before extraordinary item, and net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Accordingly, earnings per common share assuming dilution includes the dilutive effects of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method, in determining the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Not currently used in the calculation is the effect of the Company's convertible debt of $125,000,000. For the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997, the effect of the convertible debt is antidilutive and as such, is not to be included in the diluted EPS calculation. Earnings per share for all periods presented have been restated following the provisions of SFAS 128. F-12 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Interest rate swap agreements The Company has entered into two interest rate swap agreements (Note 8) as a means of managing its interest rate exposure. The Company has not entered these agreements for trading or speculative purposes. These agreements have the effect of converting the Company's line of credit obligation from a variable rate to a fixed rate. Net amounts paid or received are reflected as adjustments to interest expense. The counterparty to these agreements is a large international financial institution. These interest rate swap agreements subject the Company to financial risk that will vary during the life of the agreements in relation to the prevailing market interest rates. The Company is also exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by this counterparty. However, the Company does not anticipate non-performance by the other party, and no material loss would be expected from non-performance by the counterparty. Financial instruments The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash, investments, accounts receivable, notes receivable from related parties, accounts payable, employee compensation and benefits, and other accrued liabilities. These balances, as presented in the financial statements at December 31, 1996 and 1997, approximate their fair value. Borrowings under the Company's three credit facilities, of which $590,000,000 was outstanding as of December 31, 1997, reflect fair value as they are subject to fees and rates competitively determined in the marketplace. The fair value of the interest rate swap agreement is based on the present value of expected future cash flows from the agreement and was in a net payable position of $49,000 at December 31, 1997. The fair value of convertible subordinated notes was approximately $149,700,000 at December 31, 1997. Foreign currency translation The Company's principal operations outside of the United States are in Argentina. The currency in Argentina floats with the U.S. dollar, therefore, there are no significant foreign currency translation adjustments. The Company's operations in Europe were nominal through December 31, 1997. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Unaudited financial statements In December 1995, the Company changed its year-end to December 31 from May 31. The information presented for the seven months ended December 31, 1994 and the year ended December 31, 1995 has not been audited. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated statements of income and of cash flows include all adjustments consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the seven months ended December 31, 1994 and the year ended December 31, 1995. Reclassifications Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. F-13 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC.

In August 1994, the Company established the Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. 1994 Equity Compensation Plan (1994 Stock Plan) which provides for awards of nonqualified stock options to purchase common stock and other rights to purchase shares of common stock to certain employees, directors, consultants and facility medical directors of the Company. Under terms of the 1994 Stock Plan, the Company may grant awards for up to 8,474,078 shares of common stock. Original options granted generally vest on the ninth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to accelerated F-22 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) vesting in the event the Company meets certain performance criteria. In April 1996, the Company changed the vesting schedule for new options granted so that options vest over four years from the date of grant. The exercise price of each option equals the market price of the Company's stock on the date of grant, and an option's maximum term is ten years. Purchase rights to acquire 1,314,450 common shares for $.90-$3.60 per share have been awarded to certain employees under the 1994 Stock Plan, the majority of which were granted in connection with the change in control. All such rights were exercised and the Company received notes for the uncollected portion of the purchase proceeds. The notes bear interest at the lesser of The Bank of New York's prime rate or 8%, are full recourse to the employees, and are secured by the employees' stock. The notes are repayable four years from the date of issuance, subject to certain prepayment requirements. At December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 the outstanding notes plus accrued interest totaled $378,000, $227,000, and $212,000 respectively. During the year ended May 31, 1995, 1,477,778 of the options issued to purchase common stock were issued to the Company's President. These options originally vested 50% over four years and 50% in the same manner as other options granted under the 1994 Stock Plan. In September 1995, the Board of Directors and stockholders agreed to accelerate the President's vesting period and all of the options became 100% vested. Pursuant to this action, the President exercised all of the stock options through issuance of a full recourse note of $1,330,000 bearing interest at the lesser of prime or 8%. Additionally, the President executed a full recourse note for $1,349,000 bearing interest at the lesser of prime or 8% per annum to meet his tax liability in connection with the stock option exercise. In April 1996, this note was increased by an additional $173,000. These notes are secured by other shares of company stock and mature in September 1999 or upon disposition of the common stock by the President. 1995 Stock Plan. In November 1995, the Company established the Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. 1995 Equity Incentive Plan (1995 Stock Plan) which provides awards of stock options and the issuance of common shares subject to certain restrictions to certain employees, directors and other individuals providing services to the Company. There are 1,666,667 common shares reserved for issuance under the 1995 Stock Plan. Options granted generally vest over four years from the date of grant and an option's maximum term is ten years, subject to certain restrictions. The Company generally issues awards with the exercise prices equal to the market price of the Company's stock on the date of grant. 1997 Stock Plan. In July 1997, the Company established the Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. 1997 Equity Compensation Plan (1997 Stock Plan) which provides awards of stock options and the issuance of common shares subject to certain restrictions to certain employees, directors and other individuals providing services to the Company. There are 4,166,667 common shares reserved for issuance under the 1997 Stock Plan. Options granted generally vest over four years from the date of grant and an option's maximum term is ten years. The Company generally issues awards with the exercise prices equal to the market price of the Company's stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants for the seven months ended December 31, 1995, year ended December 31, 1996, and year ended December 31, 1997, respectively: dividend yield of 0 percent for all periods; weighted average expected volatility of 40.5%, 36.35% and 35.12%; risk-free interest rates of 5.92%, 6.56% and 6.40% and expected lives of six years for all periods.

In September 1990, RTC established a stock plan, which provided for awards of incentive and nonqualified stock options to certain directors, officers, employees and other individuals. In 1995 and 1996, the stock plan was amended to increase the number of RTC common shares available for grant to 3,253,395 and 4,321,395 respectively. In addition, in 1996, RTC established an option plan for outside directors pursuant to which nonqualified stock options to purchase up to 80,100 shares of RTC common stock were reserved for issuance. Options granted generally vest from three to five years and an option's maximum term is ten years, subject to certain restrictions. Incentive stock options were granted at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of RTC's common stock on the date of grant. Nonqualified stock options were permitted to be granted as low as 50% of market value, subject to certain floor restrictions. Accordingly, compensation expense for the difference between the fair market value and the exercise price for nonqualified stock options is recorded over the vesting period of such options. F-24 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) In May 1995, RTC granted 559,557 incentive stock options to certain directors, officers and employees of RTC. These options were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of RTC's common stock on the date of the grant. These options vest over three years. Certain options totaling 407,175 vest upon the earlier of attainment of predetermined earnings per share targets or nine years. In March 1996, RTC granted 821,495 incentive stock options to certain directors, officers and employees of RTC. These options were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of RTC's common stock on the date of the grant and vest over four years. Certain options aggregating 231,398 vest upon the earlier of attainment of predetermined earnings per share targets or nine years. In December 1996, RTC granted 133,500 incentive stock options to an officer of the Company. These options were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of RTC's common stock on the date of the grant and were fully vested on the grant date. Also in December 1996, RTC granted 40,050 non-qualified stock options in connection with the release of RTC from certain obligations. The options were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of RTC's common stock on the date of grant and were fully vested as of December 31, 1997. During 1997, RTC granted 1,182,543 incentive stock options to certain directors, officers and employees. These options were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of RTC's common stock on the dates of the grants and vest in two to five years. In 1997 RTC granted 26,700 options to acquisition consultants for covenants not to compete. These options were granted at a price equal to the fair market values of RTC's common stock on the date of the grant and were valued at $235,000. Upon consummation of the Merger, all outstanding options were converted to The Total Renal Care Holdings Inc. Special Purpose Plan (Special Purpose Plan) options. The Special Purpose Plan provides for awards of incentive and nonqualified stock options in exchange for outstanding RTC stock plan options. The Special Purpose Plan options have the same provisions and terms as the RTC stock plan, including acceleration provisions upon certain sale of assets, mergers and consolidations. On the Merger date, there was a conversion of 2,156,426 of the Company's options. Further, options for 1,305,738 shares became fully vested due to change in control accelerated vesting provisions which were contained in the original grants. Options for 1,662,356 shares were exercised subsequent to the Merger date. The Stock Plan Committee has the option of accelerating the remaining options upon certain sale of assets, mergers and consolidations. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for the six months ended December 31, 1995, the year ended December 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1997, respectively: dividend yield of 0 percent for all periods; weighted average expected volatility of 29.3%, 29.3% and 43%; risk free interest rates of 6.39%, 6.18% and 6.55%; and expected lives of 6.00, 5.63, 4.29 years.

In November 1995, the Company established the Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. Employees Stock Purchase Plan (the Stock Purchase Plan) which entitles qualifying employees to purchase up to $25,000 of common stock during each calendar year. The amounts used to purchase stock are typically accumulated through payroll withholdings and through an optional lump sum payment made in advance of the first day of the Plan. The Stock Purchase Plan allows employees to purchase stock for the lesser of 100% of the fair market value on the first day of the purchase right period or 85% of the fair market value on the last day of the purchase right period. Except for the initial purchase right period, which began on November 3, 1995 (the date of completion of the initial public offering, and ended on December 31, 1996), each purchase right period begins on January 1 or July 1, as selected by the employee and ends on December 31. Payroll withholdings related to the Stock Purchase Plan, included in accrued employee compensation and benefits, were $411,000, $1,790,000 and $1,120,307 at December 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997 respectively. Subsequent to December 31, 1996, and December 31, 1997, 174,775 and 49,060 shares, respectively were issued to satisfy the Company's obligations under the Plan. For the November 1995 and July 1996 purchase right periods the fair value of the employees' purchase rights were estimated on the beginning date of the purchase right period using the Black-Scholes model with the F-26 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) following assumptions for grants on November 3, 1995 and July 1, 1996, respectively: dividend yield of 0 percent for both periods; expected volatility of 36.6 percent for both periods; risk-free interest rate of 5.5 and 6.6 percent and expected lives of 1.2 and 0.5 years. Using these assumptions, the weighted-average fair value of purchase rights granted on November 3, 1995 and July 1, 1996 is $2.86 and $7.37, respectively. The fair value of the January 1, 1997 and July 1, 1997 purchase right period were not estimated at December 31, 1997 because of the employee's ability to withdraw from participation through December 31. Pro forma net income and earnings per share. The Company applied APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for all of its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its fixed stock option plans and its stock purchase plan. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock-based compensation plans been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below: SEVEN MONTHS YEAR ENDED YEAR ENDED ENDED DECEMBER 31, DECEMBER 31, DEC. 31, 1995 1996 1997 Income before extraordinary item.... $14,038,000 $28,830,000 $43,282,000 Extraordinary loss related to early extinguishment of debt, net of tax. 2,555,000 7,700,000 0 ----------- ----------- ----------- Net income........................ $11,483,000 $21,130,000 $43,282,000 =========== =========== =========== Earnings per common share Income before extraordinary item.. $ 0.25 $ 0.39 $ 0.56 Extraordinary loss................

These rights were awarded outside of the 1994 Stock Plan in connection with the respective employment agreements. All such purchase rights were made and the Company received notes totaling $935,000 for the uncollected portion of the purchase proceeds. The notes bear terms similar to those issued in connection with the 1994 Stock Plan. 11. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES The Company provides dialysis services to Tenet hospital patients under agreements with terms of one to three years. The contract terms are comparable to contracts with unrelated third parties. Included in the receivable from Tenet are amounts related to these services of $347,000 and $534,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1997, F-27 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) respectively. Net operating revenues received from Tenet for these services were $2,130,000, $1,332,000, $2,260,000 and $2,640,000 for the year ended May 31, 1995, the seven months ended December 31, 1995, and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. Prior to October 1994, company employees were eligible to participate in the Tenet Retirement Savings Plan, a defined contribution retirement plan, covering substantially all full-time employees, whereby employees' contributions to the plan were matched by the Company up to certain limits. Defined contributions made by the Company for the year ended May 31, 1995 amounted to $152,000. Prior to December 1994, the Company was insured for employee health coverage and a substantial portion of workers' compensation through self-insurance programs administered by Tenet. Additionally, all professional and general liability risks were insured by a wholly owned subsidiary of Tenet. The Company has no liability for employee health coverage claims incurred prior to December 31, 1994 or workers' compensation claims prior to August 11, 1994. Insurance expense under these programs amounted to $1,409,000 for year ended May 31, 1995. DLJMB An affiliate of DLJMB was the underwriter for public debt offering of units, comprising Senior Subordinated Discount Notes and common stock, and DLJMB participated in the change in control transaction in which DLJMB and certain employees acquired 74% of the Company. Fees for these transactions were $2,496,000 and $1,160,000, respectively. During the seven months ended December 31, 1995 and the year ended December 31, 1996 an affiliate of DLJMB also was one of several underwriters for the initial public offering of common stock as well as the two additional public stock offerings in which the Company issued 11,500,000, 11,666,667 and 833,334 shares, respectively. Fees for these transactions to DLJMB or its affiliates were $7,245,000, $5,075,000, and $780,000, respectively. Effective with the August 1997 public offering of common stock, DLJMB and it's affiliates are no longer considered a related party. 12. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN The Company has a savings plan (the Plan) for substantially all employees, which has been established pursuant to the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan provides for employees to contribute from 1% to 15% of their base annual salaries on a tax-deferred basis not to exceed IRC limitations. The Company, in its sole discretion, may make a contribution under the Plan each fiscal year as determined by the Board of Directors. This contribution was allocated for the year ended May 31, 1995 to each participant not eligible for participation in the 1994 Stock Plan (Note 9) in proportion to the compensation paid during the year and the length of employment for each of the participants. For the year ended May 31, 1995, the Company accrued contributions under the Plan in the amount of $200,000. The Company did not make any contributions subsequent to May 31, 1995. RTC has a defined contribution savings plan covering substantially all of their employees. RTC's contributions under the plan were approximately $231,002, $462,004, $548,471, and $1,069,283 for the six months ended December 31, 1995 and for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively. Effective July 1, 1998, the plan will be terminated and merged into the Company's plan. 13. CONTINGENCIES The Company's laboratory subsidiary is presently the subject of a Medicare carrier review. The carrier has requested certain medical and billing records for certain patients and the Company has provided the requested records. The carrier has not informed the Company of the reason for or the exact nature or scope of this review. F-28 TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) The Company is subject to various claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 14.

F-38 RENAL TREATMENT CENTERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS: Renal Treatment Centers, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware on August 11, 1988 for the purpose of providing dialysis services for End Stage Renal Disease ("ESRD") patients in an outpatient environment or in the patient's home. Additionally, the Company has acquired or entered into inpatient dialysis service agreements with hospitals to provide dialysis treatments on an inpatient basis. For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, 1997, approximately 68%, 62% and 68%, respectively, of the Company's net patient revenue was received from Medicare and Medicaid and other state administered programs. Accordingly, the Company's operations and cash flows are dependent upon the rate and manner of payment for patient services from third party payors, and, in particular, federal and state administered programs. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Basis of Presentation: In February 1996, the Company acquired, through two separate transactions, Intercontinental Medical Services, Inc. ("IMS") and Midwest Dialysis Unit and its affiliates (collectively "MDU"). Each of the transaction s was separately accounted for as a pooling-of-interest. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the results of IMS and MDU as of January 1, 1996. Prior year financial statements have not been restated to reflect these transactions because the impact on the Company's financial statements of such transactions is not material. In July 1996, the Company acquired Panama City Artificial Kidney Center, Inc. and North Florida Artificial Kidney Center, Inc. (collectively "the Group"). The transaction was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared to give retroactive effect to the merger with the Group, since this transactions, when combined with the MDU and IMS pooling transaction, was deemed to be a material transaction. Certain amounts included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related footnotes reflect the use of estimates based on assumptions made by management. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates. Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Patient Revenue and Allowances: Patient revenue is recorded at established rates on the accrual basis in the period during which the service is provided. Appropriate allowances to give recognition to third-party arrangements are also recorded on the accrual basis. Payments to the Company under Medicare and Medicaid and other state administered programs are based upon a predetermined specific fee per treatment. The Company does not believe there are any significant credit risks associated with receivables from Medicare and Medicaid and other state administered programs. The allowance for doubtful accounts consists of management's estimate of amounts that may prove uncollectible from secondary insurers or patients. F-39 RENAL TREATMENT CENTERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Facilities Costs: Facilities costs include medical supplies, including Erythropoietin ("EPO") supplies, salaries and benefits associated directly with the facility and all other costs incurred by the facilities. General and Administrative Costs: General and administrative costs include all costs generated by the Company's corporate offices (Berwyn and Argentina) and the regional office. These costs include, but are not limited to, corporate and regional salaries, rent for these office, accounting for legal fees and depreciation of major information systems items such as the Company's accounting package and billing systems. Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined using the first-in, first-out method) or market and consist of dialysis supplies and prescription drugs, such as EPO. Property, Equipment, Depreciation and Amortization: Property and equipment are stated at cost or respective fair market value at the time of acquisition. Equipment under capital lease is stated at the lower of the fair market value or net present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease. Depreciation and amortization are provided by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or lease terms for leasehold improvements and equipment under capital lease. The estimated useful life is five to seven years for furniture, fixtures and equipment, 39 years for buildings, and five to ten years for leasehold improvements. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Sales and retirements of depreciable assets are recorded by removing the related cost and accumulated depreciation from the accounts. Gains and losses on sales and retirements of assets are reflected in the results of operations. Goodwill: Goodwill, the excess of aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired, is amortized on a straight-line basis, principally over 25 to 40 years. Patient Lists: Patient lists, arising from the purchase of renal dialysis centers, are stated at cost and amortized over eight years using the straight-line method. Non-Compete Agreements Non-compete agreements, arising from acquisitions, are stated at cost and amortized over the terms of the agreements, on a straight-line basis, over periods from three to eleven years. Other Intangibles: Other intangibles consist of debt issuance costs, inpatient dialysis service agreements, deferred financing costs, start-up costs and organization costs and are stated at cost and amortized over one to eleven years using the straight-line method. Start up costs consist principally of rent and utility expenses incurred prior to the commencement of dialysis treatments , as well as costs relating to the development of the renal diagnostic lab. These costs are amortized over one year commencing with the start of operations. F-40 RENAL TREATMENT CENTERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Management evaluates intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. This evaluation is based on certain financial indicators, such as historical and future ability to generate income from operations. Income Taxes: The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal tax return and separate company state tax returns. Income taxes are provided for under the liability method in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109"). Under the liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of differences between amounts reported for financial reporting and income tax purposes by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to such differences. Deferred taxes results primarily from temporary differences arising from a difference between the book life and the tax life of certain assets. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Federal (and state, where applicable) income taxes for HCC and the Wichita Companies (which are later defined) and IMS, MDU and the Group prior to their acquisition by the Company were payable personally by the stockholders of IMS, MDU and the Group pursuant to S Corporation elections under the Internal Revenue Code. Prepaid Expenses: Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist primarily of prepaid insurance, rent, various taxes and other current assets. Merger Expenses: The Company's policy is to defer expenses incurred in connection with a pooling-of-interests transaction until the transaction is effective or terminated. The Company has deferred merger expenses consisting of severances and bonus payments, accounting and legal fees in connection with the merger with Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. Accrued Expenses: Accrued expenses consist principally of uninvoiced inventory, accrued insurance and other miscellaneous accruals. Estimated Medical Professional Liability Claims: The Company is insured for medical professional liability claims through a commercial insurance policy. It is the Company's policy that a provision for estimated premium adjustments to medical professional liability costs be made for asserted and unasserted claims and based upon the Company's experience. Provision for such professional liability claims includes estimates of the ultimate costs of such claims. To date, the Company's loss experience with such claims has not been significant. Accordingly, no such provision has been made. Cash Equivalents: For the purpose of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The cash of the Company is principally held by one financial institution. F-41 RENAL TREATMENT CENTERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Investments: Investments were comprised of investments in corporate bonds and government and government agency securities. Investment income is recognized when earned and realized gains and losses are recognized on a trade date basis, computed based on original cost. At December 31, 1996, the investments were stated at cost, which approximated fair market value. All investments were managed by one financial institution. Subsequent to December 31, 1996, all investments were liquidated, resulting in an immaterial realized gain. Earnings per Share: In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS No. 128"). This statement establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is calculated using the average shares of common stock outstanding, while diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and the earn out note were exercised. The Company adopted SFAS No. 128 in the fourth quarter of 1997. Prior period earnings per share amounts have been restated in accordance with SFAS No. 128. For the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997, the Notes are not used in the calculation as the affect is antidilutive and, as such, is not to be included in the diluted earnings per share calculation. 3.

Although the Company has elected not to adopt the cost recognition requirements under SFAS No. 123, pro-forma disclosures as of the Company had adopted the requirements beginning in 1995 are presented below: 1995 1996 1997 Net earnings--as reported............... $14,630,804 $10,682,399 $18,049,756 Net earnings--pro-forma................. 14,165,049 8,350,485 11,072,010 Earnings per share--as reported......... 0.67 0.44 0.73 Earnings per share--pro-forma........... 0.65 0.34 0.44 The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for options granted for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively, weighted average expect volatility of 29.3%, 29.3%, 39.75%, no dividend payments are made for the expected terms; average expected term of 5.5 years for options that vest over time and 3 years for options which vest immediately; risk free interest rate on the date of grant with the maturity equal to the expected term; exercise price equal to the fair market value on grant date. Options which have vesting provisions that accelerate upon a change in control either in the option grant or through employment agreements have been accelerated to 1997 due to the expected changes in control on February 27, 1998. Incentive stock options may be granted at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Non- qualified stock options may be granted at an exercise price not less than the lower of the book value of the Company's common stock or 50% of the fair market value per share of common stock on the date of grant. Accordingly, compensation expense for the difference between the fair market value and the exercise price for non-qualified stock options issued is recorded over the vesting period of such options. F-48 RENAL TREATMENT CENTERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) In 1995 and 1996, the stock plan was amended to increase the number of shares available for grant to 2,437,000 and 3,237,000 shares, respectively.

During 1997, the Company granted 885,800 incentive stock options to certain directors, officers and employees of the Company.

In 1997, the Company granted 20,000 options to acquisition consultants for covenants not to compete. These options were granted at price equal to the fair market values of the Company's common stock on the date of the grant. The Company value the options at $235,000. Approximately, $50,000 was recorded as compensation expense in 1995, in connection with incentive and non-qualified options to officers of the Company, which have been amortized over the remaining vesting period. Certain options outstanding at December 31, 1997, which were issued to certain officers and employees of the Company, become fully vested upon certain sales of assets, mergers and consolidations involving the Company, as set forth in the respective employee and stock option agreements. The remaining options outstanding at December 31, 1997, which are issued to certain officers and employees of the Company, become fully vested upon certain sales of assets, mergers and consolidations involving the Company, at the option of the Stock Plan Committee.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130") established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. It would require the Company to reclassify financial statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of and Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS No. 131") establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operation segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. This Statement is effective for financial statements for the period beginning after December 15, 1997. In the initial year of application, comparative information for earlier years is to be restated. The Company does not expect SFAS No. 130 and SFAS No. 131 to have a material impact on the financial statements. F-54 RENAL TREATMENT CENTERS, INC.

The Company expects to write-off approximately $6 million of start-up costs previously recorded. 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENT: On February 26, 1998, the Company's stockholders approved the merger with Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. ("TRCH") which became effective on February 27, 1998 (the "Merger").

The Merger constituted a "change in control" and resulted in certain executives terminating their employment for good reason. In connection with the Merger, these certain executives received severance payments and their 1997 bonuses totaling approximately $2,000,000; Merger bonuses of approximately $4,600,000 and $8,850,000 for covenants not to compete.
