ORGANIZATION Merit Behavioral Care Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Delaware in March 1993 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Medco Containment Services, Inc. ("Medco"). The Company manages behavioral healthcare programs for payors across all segments of the healthcare industry, including health maintenance organizations, Blue Cross/Blue Shield organizations and other insurance companies, corporations and labor unions, federal, state and local governmental agencies, and various state Medicaid programs. Behavioral healthcare involves the treatment of a variety of behavioral health conditions such as emotional and mental health problems, substance abuse and other personal concerns that require counseling, outpatient therapy or more intensive treatment services. On November 18, 1993, Merck & Co., Inc. ("Merck") acquired all of the outstanding shares of Medco (See Note 3). On October 6, 1995, the Company completed a merger (the "Merger") with MDC Acquisition Corp. ("MDC"), a company formed by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., L.P. ("KKR"), whereby MDC was merged with and into the Company. In connection with the Merger, the Company changed its name from Medco Behavioral Care Corporation to Merit Behavioral Care Corporation (See Note 2). 2. MERGER Prior to the Merger, the Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc. ("Merck"). As a result of the Merger, KKR and Company management and related entities obtained approximately 85% of the post-Merger common stock of the Company. In connection with the Merger, Merck received $326,016 in cash (which reflects various final purchase price adjustments) and retained approximately 15% of the common stock of the post-Merger Company. The Merger was accounted for as a recapitalization which resulted in a charge to equity of $258,138 to reflect the redemption of common stock. In conjunction with the Merger, the Company paid a stock dividend of approximately 49.6 shares for each share of the Company's stock then outstanding. The Merger was financed with $114,980 of new cash equity, consisting of $105,000 from affiliates of KKR and $9,980 from Company management and related entities ("Management"). Management acquired an additional $5,800 of equity which was funded by loans from the Company. The balance of the transaction was funded with a $75,000 bridge loan (the "Bridge Loan") provided by an affiliate of KKR and $155,000 of initial borrowings under a $205,000 senior credit facility among the Company, The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. and Bankers Trust Company (the "Senior Credit Facility"). The aforementioned proceeds were utilized to redeem common stock for $258,138, repay amounts due Merck of $67,878, and pay certain fees and expenses related to the Merger. Of the total fees and expenses, $5,500 was paid to KKR. 3. BASIS OF PRESENTATION On November 18, 1993, Merck acquired all the outstanding shares of Medco in a transaction accounted for by the purchase method. As a result of this acquisition, a new basis of accounting was established and as such, the appraised value of the Company's assets and liabilities was recognized as of November 18, 1993. 9 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 3. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED) The appraisal determined that identified intangible assets, consisting principally of customer contracts, had an appraised value of $112,000 and related deferred taxes of $47,800 at the acquisition date. These identified intangible assets are being amortized on a straight line basis over a weighted average life of 12 years. Based on the allocation of the purchase price to the net tangible and identified intangible assets and liabilities of the Company, an excess of the allocated purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired of approximately $47,988 was recorded as goodwill. Such goodwill is being amortized on a straight line basis over 40 years. The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 1997 and for the three-month periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, were prepared by the Company without audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) have been made to present fairly the consolidated financial position and results of operations and cash flows for these periods. The results of operations for the period ended December 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the expected results for the year ending September 30, 1998. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 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. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all liquid investment instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be the equivalent of cash for purposes of balance sheet presentation. Included in cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 1997 and 1996 is $11,020 and $11,713, respectively, of cash held under the terms of certain customer contracts that require a claims fund to be established and segregated for the purpose of paying customer behavioral healthcare claims. Under these arrangements, a reconciliation process is typically conducted annually between the customer and the Company to determine the amount of unexpended funds, if any, accruing to the Company. This cash is unavailable to the Company for purposes other than the payment of customer claims until such reconciliation process has been completed. The amount of cash held under such arrangements in excess of anticipated customer claims at September 30, 1997 and 1996 was $6,197 and $4,267, respectively. 10 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) The Company held surplus cash balances of $29,325 and $13,715 as of September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, as required by contracts with various state and local governmental entities. In addition, at September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company held surplus cash balances of $3,137 and $1,214, respectively, as required by various other contracts. These contracts require the segregation of such cash as financial assurance that the Company can meet its obligations thereunder. The Company has a subsidiary organized in the State of Missouri that is licensed to do business as a foreign corporation in the State of California and is subject to regulation by the Department of Corporations of the State of California. Pursuant to these regulatory requirements, certain amounts of cash are required to be retained for the use of this subsidiary. Included in cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 1997 and 1996 is $0 and $900, respectively, under such requirements. SHORT-TERM MARKETABLE SECURITIES Short-term marketable securities consist of treasury notes and certificates of deposit, carried at amortized cost which approximates fair value. All of the Company's short-term marketable securities are classified as held-to-maturity. The Company held short-term marketable securities in the amount of $4,011 at September 30, 1997 as required by the Company's contract with a governmental entity. RESTRICTED CASH At September 30, 1997 and 1996, $6,623 and $7,168, respectively, of cash and marketable securities were held by subsidiaries of the Company that are organized and regulated under state law as insurance companies. Such insurance companies are required to maintain certain minimum statutory deposits and reserves with respect to the payment of future claims. The amount of cash in excess of the liabilities of such subsidiaries and not available for dividend to the Company without prior regulatory approval was $3,559 and $5,510 at September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. As a result, such amounts of cash held by these subsidiaries have been classified as a long-term asset in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. All of the Company's long-term marketable investments are classified as held-to-maturity; in addition, such investments are carried at amortized cost which approximates fair value. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is provided principally on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: Machinery and equipment....................................... 5 Years Integrated managed care information system.................... 7 Years Furniture and fixtures........................................ 15 Years Life of Leasehold improvements........................................ lease Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and renewals of minor items are charged to operations as incurred. Major betterments are capitalized. The integrated managed care information system (the "System") represents costs incurred in the development and adaptation of AMISYS software for use in the Company's business. In addition to 11 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) purchased hardware and software costs, the payroll and related benefits of employees who are exclusively engaged in the development and deployment of the System are capitalized. The System was substantially complete in October 1995 at which time the Company began installing the System in various area and regional offices in the Company's service delivery system. As the System is installed in an office, the office is allocated a ratable portion of the total cost of the System, at which time the allocated cost is depreciated over an estimated useful life of 7 years. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES The Company amortizes costs in excess of the net assets of businesses acquired on a straight line basis over periods not to exceed 40 years. Contingent consideration is charged to goodwill when paid and is amortized over the remaining life of such goodwill, not to exceed 40 years. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of goodwill to assess recoverability and other than temporary impairments. Goodwill and intangible assets consisted of the following at September 30, 1997 and 1996: 1997 1996 ----------- ----------- Customer Contracts.................................................. $ 88,074 $ 80,000 Provider Network.................................................... 12,000 12,000 Trade Names and other............................................... 20,000 20,000 Goodwill............................................................ 157,755 110,630 ----------- ----------- $ 277,829 $ 222,630 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- DEFERRED CONTRACT START-UP COSTS The Company defers contract start-up costs related to new contracts or expansion of existing contracts that require the implementation of separate, dedicated service delivery teams, provider networks and delivery systems or the establishment of a local clinical organization in a new geographic area to service the new program. The Company defers only costs which (i) are separately identified, incremental and segregated from ordinary operating expenses; (ii) provide a direct, quantifiable benefit to future periods; and (iii) are fully recoverable from contract revenues directly attributable to such benefit. The incremental costs deferred by the Company include, among other things, consulting fees, salary costs, travel costs, office costs and network and reporting system development costs. Consulting fees deferred by the Company relate primarily to the recruitment, credentialling and contracting of the particular customer's provider network. The salary costs relate primarily to employees of the Company dedicated to clinical protocol design, network development activities and program reporting and information systems customization for the specific customer. These contract start-up costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight line basis over the initial term of the related contract. The amortization periods range from one to five years, with a weighted-average life at September 30, 1997 and 1996 of 4.3 and 3.3 years, respectively. Amortization of deferred contract start-up costs was $3,096, $2,848, and $1,315 for the periods ended September 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. During the periods ended September 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995, the Company deferred contract start-up costs of $6,067, $4,816, and $6,231, respectively. Other non-current assets include $9,036 and $6,077 of unamortized deferred contract start-up costs at September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. 12 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Effective October 1, 1995, the Company changed its method of accounting for deferred start-up costs related to new contracts or expansion of existing contracts (i) to expense costs relating to start-up activities incurred after commencement of services under the contract, and (ii) to limit the amortization period for deferred start-up costs to the initial contract period. Prior to October 1, 1995, the Company capitalized start-up costs related to the completion of the provider networks and reporting systems beyond commencement of contracts and, in limited instances, amortized the start-up costs over a period that included the initial renewal term associated with the contract. Under the new policy, the Company does not defer contract start-up costs after contract commencement, or amortize start-up costs beyond the initial contract period. The change was made to increase the focus on controlling costs associated with contract start-ups. The pro forma effect of the change, had the Company adopted this new accounting policy in prior years, is to decrease total assets by $1,769 and decrease total liabilities by $757 as of September 30, 1995, and to increase costs and expenses by $1,769 ($1,012 after taxes) for the year ended September 30, 1995. The effect of the change on fiscal 1996 and 1997 cannot be reasonably estimated. REVENUE RECOGNITION Typically, the Company charges each of its customers a flat monthly capitation fee for each beneficiary enrolled in such customer's behavioral health managed care plan or Employee Assistance Program ("EAP"). This capitation fee is generally paid to the Company in the current month. Contract revenue billed in advance of performing related services is deferred and recognized ratably over the period to which it applies. For a number of the Company's behavioral health managed care programs, the capitation fee is divided into outpatient and inpatient fees, which are recognized separately. Outpatient revenue is recognized monthly as it is received; inpatient revenue is recognized monthly and is in most cases (i) paid to the Company monthly (in cases where the Company is responsible for the payment of inpatient claims) or in certain cases (ii) retained by the customer for payment of inpatient claims. When the customer retains the inpatient revenue, actual inpatient costs are periodically reconciled to amounts retained and the Company receives the excess of the amounts retained over the cost of services, or reimburses the customer if the cost of services exceeds the amounts retained. In certain instances, such excess or deficiency is shared between the Company and the customer. A significant portion of the Company's revenue is derived from capitated contracts. DIRECT SERVICE COSTS Direct service costs are comprised principally of expenses associated with managing, supervising and providing the Company's services, including third-party network provider charges, various charges associated with the Company's staff offices, inpatient facility charges, costs associated with members of management principally engaged in the Company's clinical operations and their support staff, and rent for certain offices maintained by the Company in connection with the delivery of services. Direct service costs are recognized in the month in which services are expected to be rendered. Network provider and facility charges for authorized services that have not been reported and billed to the Company (known as incurred but not reported expenses, or "IBNR") are estimated and accrued based on historical experience, current enrollment statistics, patient census data, adjudication decisions and other information. Such costs are included in the caption "Claims payable" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. 13 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) INCOME TAXES Deferred taxes are provided for the expected future income tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF, in March 1995. The general requirements of this statement are applicable to the properties and intangible assets of the Company and require impairment to be considered whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized. The Company adopted this standard on October 1, 1996. No impairment losses have been identified by the Company. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS During fiscal 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION ("SFAS 123"). The new standard defines a fair value method of accounting for stock options and similar equity instruments. Under the fair value method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. As permitted by SFAS 123, however, the Company has elected to continue to recognize and measure compensation for its stock rights and stock option plans in accordance with the existing provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES ("APB 25"). See Note 16 for pro forma disclosures of net loss as if the fair value-based method prescribed by SFAS No. 123 had been applied. DISCLOSURE OF FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company's short-term marketable securities and long-term marketable investments are carried at amortized cost which approximates fair value. The carrying amount of loans made to certain joint ventures engaged in the development of Medicaid programs (Note 9) approximates fair value which was estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings. The carrying value for the variable rate debt outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility (as described in Note 6) approximates the fair value. The fair value of the Company's senior subordinated notes (see Note 6) is estimated to be $109,000 at September 30, 1997 (based on quoted market prices) which compares to the carrying value of $100,000. 14 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base and the dispersion of such customers across different businesses and geographic regions. 5. PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment consisted of the following at September 30: 1997 1996 ----------- ---------- Machinery and equipment............................................. $ 58,988 $ 44,896 Integrated managed care information system.......................... 38,914 28,349 Furniture and fixtures.............................................. 16,665 12,795 Leasehold improvements.............................................. 3,443 2,977 ----------- ---------- 118,010 89,017 Accumulated depreciation and amortization...........................

LONG TERM DEBT Long-term debt consisted of the following at September 30: 1997 1996 ----------- ----------- Revolving Loans..................................................... $ 30,000 $ 34,000 Senior Term Loan A.................................................. 70,000 70,000 Senior Term Loan B.................................................. 129,500 50,000 Notes............................................................... 100,000 100,000 ----------- ----------- 329,500 254,000 Less current portion................................................ (6,498) (500) ----------- ----------- $ 323,002 $ 253,500 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY--In October 1995, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which provided for secured borrowings from a syndicate of lenders. The Senior Credit Facility consisted initially of (i) a six and one-half year revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") providing for up to $85,000 in revolving loans, which includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit of up to $20,000, and (ii) a term loan facility providing for up to $120,000 in term loans, consisting of a $70,000 senior term loan with a maturity of six and one-half years ("Senior Term Loan A"), and a $50,000 senior term loan with a maturity of eight years ("Senior Term Loan B"). On September 12, 1997, the Senior Term Loan B was increased by $80,000 to $130,000 with the maturity extended one and one-half years. The additional borrowings from Senior Term Loan B were primarily obtained to fund the 15 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 6. LONG TERM DEBT (CONTINUED) acquisition of CMG Health, Inc. ("CMG"), as discussed in Note 8. At September 30, 1997, $30,000 of revolving loans and five letters of credit totaling $8,313 were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, and approximately $46,687 was available for future borrowing. At September 30, 1996, $34,000 of revolving loans and three letters of credit totaling $425 were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, and approximately $50,575 was available for future borrowings. In October 1996, a scheduled repayment of $500 was made on Senior Term Loan B. The annual amortization schedule of the Senior Term Loans is $6,498 in 1998, $10,000 in 1999, $12,500 in 2000, $20,000 in 2001, $25,000 in 2002 and $125,502 thereafter. The Senior Term Loans are subject to mandatory prepayment (i) with the proceeds of certain asset sales and (ii) on an annual basis with 50% of the Company's Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for so long as the ratio of the Company's Total Debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to annual Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA" as defined in the Credit Agreement) is greater than 3.5 to 1.0. Proceeds in the amount of $4,735 received in October 1997 as a result of the disposal of one of the Company's subsidiaries (See Note 17) have been classified as current in accordance with the mandatory prepayment loan provision. At September 30, 1997, approximately $662 has been classified as current in accordance with mandatory prepayment requirements for Excess Cash Flow. The Company is charged a commitment fee calculated at an EBITDA-dependent rate ranging from 0.250% to 0.500% per annum of the commitment under the Revolving Credit Facility in effect on each day. The Company is charged a letter of credit fee calculated at an EBITDA-dependent rate ranging from 0.375% to 1.750% per annum of the face amount of each letter of credit and a fronting fee calculated at a rate equal to 0.250% per annum of the face amount of each letter of credit. Loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at EBITDA-dependent floating rates, which are, at the Company's option, based upon (i) the higher of the Federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or bank prime rates, or (ii) Eurodollar rates. Rates on borrowing outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility averaged 8.1% and 8.3% for the years ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. NOTES--On November 22, 1995, the Company issued $100,000 aggregate principal amount of 11 1/2% senior subordinated notes due 2005 (the "Private Notes"), the net proceeds of which were applied to repay the Bridge Loan (including accrued interest) and a portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. On March 20, 1996, the Company exchanged the Private Notes for $100,000 aggregate principal amount of 11 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2005 that are registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Notes"). The Notes are senior subordinated, unsecured obligations of the Company. The Company may be obligated to purchase at the holders' option all or a portion of the Notes upon a change of control or asset sale, as defined in the indenture for the Notes (the "Notes Indenture"). The Notes are not redeemable at the Company's option prior to November 15, 2000, except that at any time on or prior to November 15, 1998, under certain conditions the Company may redeem up to 35% of the initial principal amount of the Notes originally issued with the net proceeds of a public offering of the common stock of the Company. The redemption price is equal to 111.50% of the principal amount if the redemption is on or prior to November 15, 1997, and 110.50% if the redemption is on or prior to November 15, 1998. From and after November 15, 2000, the Notes will be subject to redemption at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at various redemption prices, declining from 105.75% of the principal amount to par on and after November 15, 2004. The Notes mature on November 15, 2005. 16 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 6. LONG TERM DEBT (CONTINUED) The Credit Agreement and the Notes Indenture contain restrictive covenants that, among other things and under certain conditions, limit the ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness, to acquire (including a limitation on capital expenditures) or to dispose of assets or operations, to incur liens on its property or assets, to make advances, investments and loans, and to pay any dividends. The Company must also satisfy certain financial covenants and tests. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on the capital stock of certain of the Company's subsidiaries. 7. NOTES RECEIVABLE FROM OFFICERS In October 1995, the Company loaned several officers an aggregate of $5,800 for the purchase of common stock of the Company; subsequent to the Merger, additional loans totaling $1,615 were made to officers for the purchase of shares of common stock. Each loan is represented by a promissory note which bears interest at a rate of 6.5% per annum. These notes are full recourse obligations of the officers, are collateralized by the pledge of common stock of the Company held by such officers and may be prepaid in part or in full without notice or penalty. Notes receivable totaling $250 and $265 were repaid during the periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Also a note for $100 was canceled in January 1996 for receipt of shares of common stock. The remaining outstanding notes are due as follows: $20 in 1998 and $6,780 in 2001. The notes are shown as a reduction of stockholders' equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. 8. ACQUISITIONS On September 12, 1997, the Company paid an initial $48,740 and issued 739,358 shares of Company common stock to acquire all of the capital stock of CMG, a Maryland-based provider of managed behavioral healthcare services. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the operating results of CMG from the date of the acquisition. The purchase price for CMG was allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their estimated fair values. The Company common stock issued in the acquisition was assigned a value of $7.50 per share based on a valuation analysis performed by an independent third party. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible assets acquired amounted to $64,715 and is being amortized over periods up to 40 years using the straight-line method. The purchase price allocation was based on preliminary estimates and may be revised upon final valuation. The Company is obligated to make contingent payments to the former shareholders of CMG if the financial results of certain contracts exceed specified base-line amounts. Such contingent payments are subject to an aggregate maximum of $23,500. Any such additional payments will be recorded as goodwill. The following summary of the unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations of the Company for the years ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 assumes the CMG acquisition occurred as of the beginning of the respective periods. The pro forma results include the combined historical results of the Company and CMG, and pro forma adjustments to reflect (i) interest expense associated with the debt incurred to finance the acquisition, (ii) changes to depreciation and amortization related to the allocation of the cost of CMG to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and (iii) reductions of salaries, benefits and certain other costs included in the historical results of CMG which will be eliminated as a result of the acquisition. These pro forma results have been prepared for comparative 17 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 8. ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED) purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations which actually would have resulted had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the respective periods, or which may result in the future. UNAUDITED ------------------------ 1997 1996 ----------- ----------- Revenue............................................................. $ 653,477 $ 522,857 Net loss............................................................ (15,048) (16,939) In August 1996, the Company paid approximately $340 to acquire Orion Life Insurance Company ("Orion"), a Delaware life and health insurance company. Orion holds insurance licenses in 17 states and provides the Company with the ability to underwrite future business in those states should a customer require that a licensed insurance entity underwrite its behavioral health program. On December 19, 1995, the Company paid an initial $50 with a subsequent payment of $2,950 in January 1996 to acquire ProPsych, Inc. ("ProPsych"), a Florida-based behavioral health managed care company. As of September 30, 1996, the Company recorded additional goodwill in the amount of $400 for a final contingent payment made to the former shareholders of ProPsych in November 1996. On October 5, 1995, the Company paid an initial $8,730 to acquire Choate Health Management, Inc. and certain related entities ("Choate"), a Massachusetts-based integrated behavioral healthcare organization. The Company made a contingent consideration payment of $1,278 to the former shareholders of Choate in July 1996; such payment was recorded as goodwill. In June 1997, the Company and the former Choate shareholders signed an agreement which provided for the settlement of the contingent consideration related to Choate. Such agreement required no further payments by the Company. Choate was sold by the Company in September 1997 (See Note 17). In September 1995, a contingent payment of $8,550 was made to the former shareholders of BenesYs, a subsidiary of the Company, in full settlement of any and all contingent consideration due to such former shareholders. In April 1995, a final payment of $650 was made related to the acquisition of the clinical protocols of the Washton Institute. 9. JOINT VENTURES CMG, which was acquired on September 12, 1997, is a 50% partner in CHOICE Behavioral Health Partnership ("Choice"), a managed behavioral healthcare company. The Company reports its investment in Choice using the equity method. Although the Company reports its share of earnings from the joint venture, the financial statements of Choice are not consolidated with those of the Company. All revenue of the joint venture is from a contract for the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services ("CHAMPUS") with Humana, Inc. 18 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 9. JOINT VENTURES (CONTINUED) Summarized financial information of the joint venture, representing 100% of its business, as of September 30, 1997 and for the period from September 12, 1997 through September 30, 1997, is as follows: Current Assets............. $ 38,286 Net Revenues............... $ 3,333 Cost of Providing Non-Current Assets......... 700 Services................... 2,973 --------- --------- Total Assets........... $ 38,986 --------- --------- Gross Profit............... 360 Total Liabilities.......... $ 37,141 Partners' Capital.......... 1,845 Other Expenses............. 106 --------- --------- Total Liabilities & P.C.... $ 38,986 Net Income................. $ 254 --------- --------- --------- --------- In March 1994, the Company entered into a joint venture partnership with Community Sector Systems, Inc. ("CSS"), a software development company, to market a proprietary clinical information, communications and case documentation software package. The Company contributed $125 in capital, loaned $1,375 to CSS in 1994 and made an additional loan of $300 to CSS in 1995. In December 1996, the Company converted the $1,375 loan and the accrued interest receivable on the loan of $369 into an equity interest in CSS, and made an additional capital contribution of $500. Additionally, in February 1997 the Company contributed capital of $350 and loaned CSS $150. As of September 30, 1997, the Company has a net loan receivable from CSS of $450 and an equity investment in CSS of $2,719. In April 1995, the Company entered into a contractual arrangement with Community Health Network of Connecticut, Inc. ("CHN"), an organization consisting of 11 not-for-profit health centers in Connecticut, under which the Company has agreed to provide CHN with up to a total of $4,000 in unsecured debt to help finance CHN's Medicaid program development costs. As of September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company had net advances to CHN outstanding of $1,732 and $2,079, respectively. Also, in April 1995, the Company entered into a joint venture with Neighborhood Health Providers, LLC ("NHP"), an organization consisting of five hospitals located in Brooklyn and Queens, New York, under which the Company agreed to fund a portion of NHP's Medicaid program development costs in the form of $1,500 in unsecured debt. As of September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company had net advances of $1,500 to NHP. In September 1995, the Company paid $12,010 to Empire Blue Cross and Blue Shield ("Empire") for the right to provide behavioral health managed care services to approximately 750,000 Empire enrollees in the State of New York for a period of eight years. In connection therewith, the Company formed a limited liability company (the "Empire Joint Venture") with the Company and Empire receiving ownership interests of 80% and 20%, respectively. The payment was charged to goodwill and is being amortized over the life of the underlying contract. In January 1996, the Company formed a joint venture with the hospital sponsors of NHP under the name Royal Health Care LLC ("Royal"), in which the Company and NHP each holds a 50% equity interest. Royal has management services contracts with certain organizations including NHP and Empire Community Delivery Systems LLC ("ECDS"). During fiscal 1996, the Company made an equity contribution and an unsecured working capital loan to Royal in the amounts of $200 and $228, respectively. During fiscal 1997, the Company made an additional capital contribution of $100 to Royal. 19 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 9. JOINT VENTURES (CONTINUED) ECDS, which was formed in fiscal 1996, is a joint venture company in which the Company, NHP and Empire hold interests of approximately 16.7%, 16.7%, and 66.6%, respectively. The Company made capital contributions to ECDS in 1997 and 1996 of $667 and $458, respectively. Also, in 1997 and 1996 the Company provided loans to NHP, the proceeds of which were used to fund NHP's capital contributions to ECDS, of $667 and $458, respectively. The loans to NHP are secured by NHP's interest in ECDS. Empire and ECDS have entered into an agreement under which ECDS will exclusively manage and operate, on behalf of Empire, health care benefit programs (covering all services except behavioral healthcare and vision care) in the five New York City boroughs for Medicaid beneficiaries enrolled in Empire plans. Each of Empire and Royal will provide specified administrative and management services to ECDS to support its delivery of services to Empire under such agreement. Moreover, each of ECDS and Royal will hold specified equity interests in certain independent practice associations (IPAs) providing treatment services to the Empire Medicaid beneficiaries. In addition, Empire has entered into an agreement with the Empire Joint Venture to exclusively provide, on behalf of Empire, all behavioral healthcare services in New York City to such Empire Medicaid enrollees. The Royal and ECDS joint ventures and related agreements have five year terms, with up to three five-year renewals (subject to applicable regulatory approvals). Each such venture and agreement also contains customary termination provisions. The receivables from, and the investments in, CSS, NHP, CHN, Royal and ECDS are reflected in "other assets" in the accompanying balance sheets. 20 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 10. INCOME TAXES Prior to the Merger, the Company filed a consolidated federal income tax return with Merck. Though no formal tax sharing agreement existed between the Company and Merck, the Company computed federal income taxes on a separate return basis and recorded such taxes in the caption "Due to parent".

As a result, no valuation allowance has been provided. At September 30, 1997, the Company had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $76,630 for tax purposes. Approximately $5,920 of the carryforwards expire in 2010, $21,460 expire in 2011 and $49,250 expire in 2012. 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES A. LEASES The Company leases office facilities and equipment under various noncancelable operating leases. At September 30, 1997, the minimum aggregate rental commitments under noncancelable leases, excluding renewal options, are as follows: 1998.............................................................. $ 13,469 1999.............................................................. 11,606 2000.............................................................. 9,892 2001.............................................................. 8,699 2002.............................................................. 6,382 Thereafter........................................................ 18,219 --------- Minimum lease payments............................................ 68,267 Less amounts representing sublease income......................... (2,060) --------- $ 66,207 --------- --------- Several of the leases contain escalation provisions due to increased maintenance costs and taxes. Scheduled rent increases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Total rent expense for the periods ended September 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 amounted to $15,842, $13,059 and $10,115, respectively. 22 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) B. EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have employment agreements with various officers and certain other management personnel that provide for salary continuation for a specified number of months under certain circumstances. The aggregate commitment for future salaries at September 30, 1997, excluding bonuses, was approximately $2,735. C. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS In October 1996, a group of eight plaintiffs purporting to represent an uncertified class of psychiatrists and clinical social workers brought an action under the federal antitrust laws in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against nine behavioral health managed care organizations, including the Company (collectively, "Defendants"). The complaint alleges that Defendants violated section 1 of the Sherman Act by engaging in a conspiracy to fix the prices at which Defendants purchase services from mental healthcare providers such as plaintiffs. The complaint further alleges that Defendants engaged in a group boycott to exclude mental healthcare providers from Defendants' networks in order to further the goals of the alleged conspiracy. The complaint also challenges the propriety of Defendents' capitation arrangements with their respective customers, although it is unclear from the complaint whether plaintiffs allege that Defendants unlawfully conspired to enter into capitation arrangements with their respective customers. The complaint seeks treble damages against Defendants in an unspecified amount and a permanent injunction prohibiting Defendants from engaging in the alleged conduct which forms the basis of the complaint, plus costs and attorneys' fees. In January 1997, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On July 21, 1997, a court-appointed magistrate judge issued a report and recommendation to the District Court recommending that Defendants' motion to dismiss the complaint with prejudice be granted. On August 5, 1997, plaintiffs filed objections to the magistrate judge's report and recommendation; such objections have not yet been heard. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this litigation. No amounts are recorded on the books of the Company in anticipation of a loss as a result of this contingency. The Company is engaged in various other legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of such proceedings will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity or results of operations. D. INSURANCE Under the Company's professional liability insurance policy, coverage is limited to the period in which a claim is asserted, rather than when the incident giving rise to such claim occurred. The Company has obtained professional liability insurance through October 6, 1998; however, in the event the Company was unable to obtain professional liability insurance at the expiration of the current policy period, it is possible that the Company would be uninsured for claims asserted after the expiration of the current policy period. Historical experience of the Company does not indicate that losses, if any, arising from claims asserted after the expiration of the current professional liability policy period would have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity or results of operations. 23 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) E. CHAMPUS CONTRACT On April 1, 1997, the Company began providing mental health and substance abuse services, as a subcontractor, to beneficiaries of CHAMPUS in the Southwestern and Midwestern United States, designated as CHAMPUS Regions 7 and 8. The fixed monthly amounts that the Company receives for medical costs and records as revenue are subject to a one-time retroactive adjustment scheduled to be determined in August 1998 based upon actual healthcare utilization during the period known as the "data collection period". The data collection period is the year ended March 31, 1997. Because of the inherent uncertainty surrounding factors included in the determination of the final retroactive adjustment, management has not been able to quantify a range of potential adjustment, and accordingly no adjustments have been recorded as of September 30, 1997. As a result, the amount of recorded revenue and income from the CHAMPUS contract may differ significantly from the amount that would have been recorded had the actual factors been known. 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS During the period ended September 30, 1997, the Company paid consulting fees and board fees to KKR totaling approximately $500. During the period ended September 30, 1996, the Company paid consulting fees and board fees to KKR totaling approximately $5,900; of such amount, $5,500 related to the Merger and associated financing transactions. Prior to the merger, Medco disbursed funds on behalf of the Company for the payment of certain of the Company's U.S. federal, state and local income taxes and certain acquisition transactions described in Note 8. Included in expense for the periods ended September 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 are charges totaling $1,467, $1,218 and $703, respectively, related to a prescription drug benefit program administered by Medco. The average balance due to the parent (Medco) for fiscal 1995 was $40,996; such balance was repaid in full on October 6, 1995 in connection with the Merger. A summary of intercompany activity with the parent is as follows: Due to parent, October 1, 1994................................... $ 37,931 Allocation of costs from parent.................................. 379 Intercompany purchases........................................... 659 Income taxes paid by parent...................................... 3,795 Cash transfer from parent........................................ 28,049 --------- Due to parent, September 30,1995................................. 70,813 Adjustment to income taxes paid by parent........................

RESTRUCTURING CHARGE The Company recorded a pre-tax restructuring charge of $2,995 related to a plan, adopted and approved in the fourth quarter of 1996, to restructure its staff offices by exiting certain geographic 24 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 13. RESTRUCTURING CHARGE (CONTINUED) markets and streamlining the field and administrative management organization of Continuum Behavioral Healthcare Corporation, a subsidiary of the Company. This decision was in response to the results of underperforming locations affected by the lack of sufficient patient flow in the geographic areas serviced by these offices and the Company's ability to purchase healthcare services at lower rates from the network. In addition, it was determined that the Company would be able to expand beneficiary access to specialists and other providers, thereby achieving more cost-effective treatment, and to favorably shift a portion of the economic risk, in some cases, of providing outpatient healthcare to the provider through the use of case rates and other alternative reimbursement methods. The restructuring charge was comprised primarily of accruals for employee severance, real property lease terminations and write-off of certain assets in geographic markets which were being exited. The restructuring plan was substantially completed during fiscal 1997. 14. MAJOR CUSTOMERS For fiscal 1997, revenue derived from a state Medicaid contract accounted for approximately 12% of the Company's operating revenues. For fiscal 1996 and 1995, no customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's operating revenues. 15. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN The Company has a 401(k) savings plan covering substantially all employees who have completed one year of active employment during which 1,000 hours of service has been credited. Under the plan, an employee may elect to contribute on a pre-tax basis to a retirement account up to 15% of the employee's compensation up to the maximum annual contributions permitted by the Internal Revenue Code. The Company matches employee contributions at the rate of 50% (25% for periods prior to January 1, 1997) of the employee's contributions to the 401(k) savings plan, up to a maximum of 6% of an employee's annual compensation. The Company's 401(k) savings plan contribution recognized as expense for the periods ended September 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $1,289, $542 and $330, respectively. 16. STOCK OPTIONS AND AWARDS Effective October 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123. As permitted by the standard, the Company has elected to continue following the guidance of APB 25 for measurement and recognition of stock-based transactions with employees. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the Company's option plans. Had the determination of compensation cost for these plans been based on the fair value as of the grant dates for awards under these plans, the Company's net loss for the years ending September 30, 1997 and 1996 would have increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below: 1997 1996 ---------- ---------- Net loss: As reported........................................................ $ (13,872) $ (17,881) Pro forma (unaudited).............................................. (15,729) (19,428) The resulting compensation expense may not be representative of compensation expense to be incurred on a pro forma basis in future years. 25 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 16. STOCK OPTIONS AND AWARDS (CONTINUED) In October 1995, the Company adopted the 1995 Stock Purchase and Option Plan for Employees of Merit Behavioral Care Corporation and Subsidiaries (the "1995 Option Plan"). The 1995 Option Plan permits the issuance of common stock and the grant of up to 8,561,000 non-qualified stock options (the "1995 Options") to purchase shares of common stock to key employees of the Company. The exercise price of 1995 Options will not be less than 50% of the fair market value per share of common stock on the date of such grant. Such options vest at the rate of 20% per year over a period of five years. An option's maximum term is 10 years. In January 1996, the Company adopted a second stock option plan, the Merit Behavioral Care Corporation Employee Stock Option Plan ("1996 Employee Option Plan"). The 1996 Employee Option Plan covers all employees not included in the 1995 Option Plan whose employment commenced prior to January 1, 1997. The 1996 Employee Option Plan permits the grant of up to 1,000,000 non-qualified stock options (the "1996 Employee Options") to purchase shares of common stock. The 1996 Employee Options vest on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant, provided that the employee remains employed with the Company on such date. The 1996 Employee Options are exercisable after an initial public offering of common stock of the Company meeting certain requirements. An option's maximum term is 10 years. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following weighted-average assumptions were used for grants in the years ending September 30, 1997 and 1996: 1997 1996 --------- --------- Expected dividend yield..................................................... 0.00% 0.00% Expected volatility......................................................... 1.00% 1.00% Risk-free interest rates.................................................... 6.44% 6.08% Expected option lives (years)............................................... 7.0 7.0 Information regarding the Company's stock option plans is summarized below: 1995 OPTION PLAN 1996 EMPLOYEE OPTION PLAN -------------------------------- ------------------------------- WEIGHTED AVERAGE WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES EXERCISE PRICE SHARES EXERCISE PRICE ----------- ------------------- ---------- ------------------- Outstanding at October 1, 1995................. -- -- Granted........................................ 5,698,000 $ 5.00 835,175 $ 7.50 Canceled.......................................

The weighted-average fair values of options granted during fiscal 1997 and 1996 for the 1996 Employee Option Plan were $0.87 and $0.01, respectively. 26 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 16. STOCK OPTIONS AND AWARDS (CONTINUED) The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding as of September 30, 1997: 1995 OPTION PLAN 1996 EMPLOYEE OPTION PLAN ----------------- ----------------------------- Range of exercise price.......................................... $ 5.00-$7.50 $ 7.50 Weighted-average remaining contracted life (years)............... 8.38 8.51 As of September 30, 1997, 993,600 shares pertaining to the 1995 Option Plan were exercisable with an exercise price of $5.00. No shares were exercisable for the 1996 Employee Option Plan as of September 30, 1997. Prior to the Merger, employees of the Company participated in stock option plans administered by Merck. Pursuant to these plans, options were granted at the fair market value of Merck common stock on the date of grant and generally vest over a period of five years. The Company realizes an income tax benefit when Company employees exercise either (a) nonqualified Merck stock options; or (b) Merck incentive stock options, assuming the underlying common stock is sold within one year from the date that the incentive stock option was exercised. This benefit results in a decrease in tax liabilities and an increase in additional paid in capital. During 1997 and 1996, the Company recorded tax benefits of $11,630 and $1,505, respectively, from the exercise of Merck options. Information regarding the options outstanding under these plans held by employees of the Company at September 30, 1997 and 1996 is as follows: SHARES OPTION PRICE PER SHARE ---------------------- --------------------------------------- 1997 1996 1997 1996 --------- ----------- ------------------- ------------------ Vested........................................ 497,353 905,504 $ 3.78 to $25.87 $ 3.78 to $35.75 Unvested...................................... 127,472 391,169 $ 21.93 to $22.24 $ 3.78 to $35.75 --------- ----------- Total......................................... 624,825 1,296,673 --------- ----------- --------- ----------- Through September 30, 1995, employees of the Company participated in an Employee Stock Purchase Plan administered by Merck. The stock plan permitted employees of the Company to purchase Merck common stock at the end of each quarter at a price equal to 85% of the fair market value at that date. 17. DISPOSAL OF SUBSIDIARY In September 1997, the Company sold Choate for approximately $4,775 ($4,735 of which was received in October 1997). The Company recognized a loss of approximately $6,925 relating to the transaction. 18. MERGER COSTS AND SPECIAL CHARGES In fiscal 1997, the Company recognized approximately $733 of expenses associated with uncompleted acquisition transactions. Also, the Company incurred other special charges of approximately $581 related to nonrecurring employee benefit costs associated with the exercise of stock options by employees of the Company under plans administered by Merck. A significant number of these stock options, which were granted prior to the Merger, required exercise by September 30, 1997. 27 MERIT BEHAVIORAL CARE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 19.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 131, DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION, which will be effective for the Company beginning October 1, 1998. SFAS No. 131 redefines how operating segments are determined and requires disclosure of certain financial and descriptive information about a company's operating segments. The Company has not yet completed its analysis with respect to which operating segments of its business it will provide such information 21. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On February 12, 1998, the Company's outstanding stock was aquired by Magellan Health Services, Inc. for approximately $448.9 million in cash plus the repayment of the Company's existing debt. In addition, all options outstanding under the 1995 Option Plan and the 1996 Employee Option Plan vested upon closing of the transaction. 28 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information set forth below is based on the historical presentation of the consolidated financial statements of Magellan, and the historical operating results of Human Affairs International, Incorporated ("HAI"), Allied Health Group, Inc. ("Allied"), Merit and CMG Health, Inc. ("CMG") and the historical financial position of Merit. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended September 30, 1997 and the three months ended December 31, 1997 give effect to the Crescent Transactions (as defined), the HAI acquisition, the Allied acquisition, the Green Spring Minority Shareholder Conversion (as defined), Merit's acquisition of CMG and the Transactions as if they had been consummated on October 1, 1996. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 1997 gives effect to the Green Spring Minority Shareholder Conversion and the Transactions as if they had been consummated on December 31, 1997. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations do not give effect to hospital acquisitions and closures during the year ended September 30, 1997 as such transactions and events are not considered material to the pro forma presentation. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations presentation assumes that the net proceeds from the Crescent Transactions, after debt repayment of approximately $200 million, were fully utilized to fund the HAI acquisition and the Allied acquisition. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended September 30, 1997 excludes the non-recurring losses incurred by the Company as a result of the Crescent Transactions. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information does not purport to be indicative of the results that actually would have been obtained if the operations had been conducted as presented and they are not necessarily indicative of operating results to be expected in future periods. The business of the Company's 50% owned hospital business, Charter Behavioral Health Systems, LLC ("CBHS"), is seasonal in nature with a reduced demand for certain services generally occurring in the first fiscal quarter around major holidays, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas, and during the summer months comprising the fourth fiscal quarter. Accordingly, the Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Operations for the three months ended December 31, 1997 is not necessarily indicative of the pro forma results expected for a full year. The Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Operations excludes approximately $60.0 million of cost savings on an annual basis that the Company expects to achieve within eighteen months following consummation of the Merit acquisition. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Magellan and Merit, which appear elsewhere herein. The following is a description of each of the transactions (other than the Transactions, which are described elsewhere herein) reflected in the pro forma presentation: CRESCENT TRANSACTIONS. The Crescent Transactions, which were consummated on June 17, 1997, resulted in, among other things: (i) the sale of substantially all of the Company's domestic acute care psychiatric hospitals and residential treatment facilities (the "Psychiatric Hospital Facilities") to Crescent Real Estate Equities Limited Partnership ("Crescent") for $417.2 million (before costs of approximately $16.0 million); (ii) the creation of CBHS; (iii) the Company's entry into the healthcare franchising business; and (iv) the issuance by Magellan of 2,566,622 warrants to Crescent and Crescent Operating, Inc. ("COI") (1,283,311 warrants each) with an exercise price of $30 per share. CBHS leases the Psychiatric Hospital Facilities from Crescent under a twelve-year operating lease (the "Facilities Lease") (subject to renewal) for $41.7 million annually, subject to adjustment, with a 5% escalator, compounded annually plus certain additional rent. The warrants issued to Crescent and COI have been valued at $25.0 million in the Company's balance sheet. The Company accounts for its 50% investment in CBHS under the equity method of accounting, which significantly reduces the revenues and related operating expenses presented in the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations. "Divested 29 Operations--Crescent Transactions" in the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations represents the results of operations of the businesses that are operated by CBHS. The Company incurred a loss before income taxes, minority interest and extraordinary items of approximately $59.9 million as a result of the Crescent Transactions, which was recorded during fiscal 1997. HAI ACQUISITION. On December 4, 1997, the Company consummated the purchase of HAI, formerly a unit of Aetna U.S. Healthcare ("Aetna"), for approximately $122.1 million. HAI manages the care of over 16.0 million covered lives, primarily through EAPs and other managed behavioral healthcare plans. The Company funded the acquisition of HAI with cash on hand and accounted for the acquisition of HAI using the purchase method of accounting. The Company may be required to make additional contingent payments of up to $60 million annually to Aetna over the five-year period subsequent to closing. The amount and timing of the payments will be contingent upon net increases in the number of HAI's covered lives in specified products. The maximum contingent payments are $300.0 million. ALLIED ACQUISITION. On December 5, 1997, the Company purchased the assets of Allied and certain affiliates for approximately $70.0 million, of which $50.0 million was paid to the seller at closing with the remaining $20.0 million placed in escrow. Allied provides specialty risk-based products and administrative services to a variety of insurance companies and other customers, including Blue Cross of New Jersey, CIGNA and NYLCare, for its 3.4 million members. Allied has over 80 physician networks across the eastern United States. Allied's networks include physicians specializing in cardiology, oncology and diabetes. The Company funded the Allied acquisition with cash on hand. The Company accounted for the Allied acquisition using the purchase method of accounting. The escrowed amount of the purchase price is payable in one-third increments if Allied achieves specified earnings targets during each of the three years following the closing. Additionally, the purchase price may be increased during the three-year period by up to $40.0 million, if Allied's performance exceeds specified earnings targets. The maximum purchase price payable is $110.0 million. GREEN SPRING MINORITY SHAREHOLDER CONVERSION. The minority shareholders of Green Spring Health Services, Inc. ("Green Spring") converted their interests in Green Spring into an aggregate of 2,831,516 shares of Company Common Stock during January 1998 (the "Green Spring Minority Shareholder Conversion"). As a result of the Green Spring Minority Shareholder Conversion, the Company owns 100% of Green Spring. The Company accounted for the Green Spring Minority Shareholder Conversion as a purchase of minority interest at the fair value of the consideration paid. MERIT ACQUISITION OF CMG. On September 12, 1997, Merit acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of CMG for approximately $48.7 million in cash and approximately 739,000 shares of Merit common stock.

Adjustment to net revenue for the three months ended December 31, 1997 represents the effect of renegotiated contractual rates with Aetna for the two months prior to consummation of the HAI acquisition. The pro forma presentation assumes that all Franchise Fees due from CBHS were paid when due. Based on projections of fiscal 1998 operations prepared by management of CBHS, the Company believes that CBHS will be unable to pay the full amount of the Franchise Fees it is contractually obligated to pay during fiscal 1998. The Company currently estimates that CBHS will be able to pay approximately $58.0 million to $68.0 million of the Franchise Fees in fiscal 1998, a $10.0 million to $20.0 million shortfall relative to amounts payable under the Master Franchise Agreement. The Company may be required to record bad debt expense related to Franchise Fees receivable from CBHS, if any, in fiscal 1998 or future periods if CBHS's operating performance does not improve to levels achieved prior to the consummation of the Crescent Transactions. If CBHS defaults in payment of the Franchise Fees, the Company will pursue all remedies available to it under the Master Franchise Agreement. 33 NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) (2) Adjustments to salaries, cost of care and other operating expenses represent the following (in thousands): THREE MONTHS YEAR ENDED ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, DECEMBER 31, TRANSACTION DESCRIPTION 1997 1997 - ----------- ----------------------------------- -------------------- --------------------- Crescent Fees payable to CBHS by the Company for the management of less than wholly-owned hospital-based joint ventures controlled by the Company for the 259 days ended June 16, 1997............................... $ 7,564 $ -- Crescent Reduction of corporate overhead that was transferred to CBHS for the 259 days ended June 16, 1997...

(ii) Represents $50.7 million of goodwill amortized over an estimated useful life of 40 years and $16.9 million estimated fair value of other intangible assets (primarily client lists and treatment protocols) amortized over an estimated useful life of 15 years. The allocation of the HAI and Allied purchase prices to equipment, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets and estimated useful lives are based on the Company's preliminary valuations, which are subject to change upon receiving independent appraisals for such assets. Subsequent to the consummation of the HAI acquisition, the Company may be required to make additional contingent payments of up to $60 million annually during the five years following the consummation of the HAI acquisition to Aetna for aggregate potential contingent payments of $300 million. These contingent payments, if any, would be recorded as goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, which would result in estimated additional annual amortization of $11 million to $13 million in future periods if all the contingent payments are made. The Company may also be required to make contingent payments to the former owners of Allied of up to $60 million during the three years subsequent to consummation of the Allied acquisition, of which $20 million is in escrow. These contingent payments, if any, would be recorded as goodwill, which would result in estimated additional annual amortization of $1.5 million.

(ii) The impairment loss on intangible assets resulted from reducing the book value of the Company's investment in CBHS to its approximate fair value at the consummation date of the Crescent Transactions. The impairment losses represent the reductions in the carrying amount of goodwill and other intangible assets related to the divested or contributed CBHS operations. (iii) Represents approximately $5.0 million of incremental costs to perform finance and accounting functions transferred to CBHS and approximately $7.5 million for the Company's obligation to replace CBHS' Philadelphia hospital.
