the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Although the Company believes that its plans,
intentions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are
reasonable, it can give no assurance that such plans, intentions or expectations
will be achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from the Company's forward-looking statements are set forth in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1998 and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended June 30, 1999. All forward-looking statements
attributable to the Company or persons acting on behalf of the Company are
expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30,
1998 and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period
ended June 30, 1999.

ITEM 2. DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

    On September 10, 1999, the Company consummated the transfer of assets and
other interests pursuant to a Letter Agreement dated August 10, 1999 with
Crescent Real Estate Equities ("Crescent"), Crescent Operating, Inc. ("COI") and
Charter Behavioral Health Systems, LLC ("CBHS") that effects the Company's exit
from its healthcare provider and healthcare franchising businesses (the "CBHS
Transactions". The terms of the CBHS Transactions are summarized as follows:

HEALTHCARE PROVIDER INTERESTS

    - The Company redeemed 80% of its CBHS common interest and all of its CBHS
      preferred interest, leaving the Company with a 10% non-voting common
      interest in CBHS.

    - The Company has agreed to transfer to CBHS its interests in five of its
      six hospital-based joint ventures ("Provider JVs") and related real estate
      as soon as practicable, including net proceeds of approximately $9 million
      from the sale of Magellan's 75% ownership interest in Naperville
      Psychiatric Ventures on September 1, 1999.

    - The Company transferred to CBHS the right to receive approximately $7.1
      million from Crescent for the sale of two psychiatric hospitals that were
      acquired by the Company (and leased to CBHS) in connection with CBHS'
      acquisition of certain businesses from Ramsey Healthcare, Inc. in fiscal
      1998.

    - The Company forgave receivables due from CBHS of approximately $3.3
      million for payments received by CBHS for patient services prior to the
      formation of CBHS on June 17, 1997. The receivables related primarily to
      patient stays that "straddled" the formation date of CBHS.

    - The Company will pay $2.0 million to CBHS in 12 equal monthly installments
      beginning on the first anniversary of the closing date.

    - CBHS will indemnify the Company for 20% of up to the first $50 million
      (i.e., $10 million) for expenses, liabilities and settlements related to
      government investigations for events that occurred prior to June 17, 1997
      (the "CBHS Indemnification"). CBHS will be required to pay the Company a
      maximum of $500,000 per year under the CBHS Indemnification.

    - Crescent, COI, CBHS and Magellan have provided each other with mutual
      releases of claims among all of the parties with respect to the original
      transactions that effected the formation of CBHS and the operation of CBHS
      since June 17, 1997 with certain specified exceptions.

                                       1

    - CBHS will have the right to require the Company to transfer certain other
      real estate and interests related to the healthcare provider business to
      CBHS within 30 days of closing.

HEALTHCARE FRANCHISING INTERESTS

    - The Company transferred its healthcare franchising interests to CBHS,
      which includes Charter Advantage, LLC, the Charter call center operation,
      the Charter name and related intellectual property. The Company has been
      released from performing any franchise services or incurring future
      franchising expenses.

    - The Company forgave prepaid Charter call center management fees of
      approximately $2.7 million.

    - The Company forgave unpaid franchise fees of approximately $115 million.

    The CBHS Transactions, together with the formal plan of disposal authorized
by the Company's Board of Directors on September 2, 1999, represents the
disposal of the Company's healthcare provider and healthcare franchising
business segments under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting
the Results of Operations--Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a
Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and
Transactions" ("APB 30"). APB 30 requires that the results of continuing
operations be reported separately from those of discontinued operations for all
periods presented and that any gain or loss from disposal of a segment of a
business be reported in conjunction with the related results of discontinued
operations. Accordingly, the Company will be required to restate its results of
operations for all prior periods. The Company expects to record an after-tax
loss on disposal (primarily non-cash) of its healthcare provider and healthcare
franchising business segments of approximately $42.0 to $48.0 million, in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1999.

ITEM 7. PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS

PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

    The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information for the
Company is included herein:

1)  Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 1999;

2)  Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the fiscal
    years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998; and

3)  Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine
    months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999.

                                       2

             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 Services, Inc. and certain of
its affiliates ("Allied"), and Merit Behavioral Care Corporation ("Merit").
Certain reclassifications have been made to fiscal 1996, 1997 and 1998 amounts
to conform to fiscal 1999 presentation.

    The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 1999, gives
effect to the CBHS Transactions as if they occurred on June 30, 1999.

    The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1998, and for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 and
1999, give effect to the following events as if they had occurred on October 1,
1997:

    -  the HAI acquisition (as described below);

    -  the Allied acquisition (as described below);

    -  the Green Spring minority stockholder conversion (as described below);

    -  the Merit acquisition (as described below);

    -  The Europe sale (as described below); and

    -  the CBHS Transactions

    The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the fiscal
years ended September 30, 1996 and 1997 presents the impact of separately
reporting continuing operations and discontinued operations as a result of the
CBHS 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. Additionally,
due to the ongoing integration of the Company's managed healthcare businesses
and other factors, the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations
for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, are not necessarily
proportional to nor indicative of the pro forma results expected for a full
year.

    The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1998, excludes approximately $35.0 million to $40.0
million of annual cost savings that the Company has achieved as a result of the
Integration Plan (as defined). The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements
of Operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998, and for the nine
months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, also exclude managed care integration costs
of $17.0 million, $12.3 million and $4.4 million, respectively, that were
directly attributable to the HAI, Allied and Merit acquisitions. The Unaudited
Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1997 excludes the non-recurring loss on Crescent Transactions. The
Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 1998, and for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 excludes
the extraordinary loss on early extinguishments of debt that was a direct result
of the Merit acquisition. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of
Operations for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 excludes the non-recurring
gain attributable to the Europe sale.

    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 Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations that appear in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1998, filed on March 30, 1999, and in the Company's quarterly
report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 1999, filed on
August 16, 1999, which are incorporated herein by reference; the historical

                                       3

consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Merit, which appear in
the Company's current report on Form 8-K/A, filed on October 28, 1998; and the
historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of HAI, which
appear in the Company's current report on Form 8-K, filed on December 17, 1997.

    The following is a description of each of the transactions (other than the
CBHS Transactions which are described elsewhere herein) that are reflected in
the pro forma presentation:

    HAI ACQUISITION.  On December 4, 1997, the Company consummated the purchase
of HAI, formerly a unit of Aetna US Healthcare, Inc. ("Aetna"), for
approximately $122.1 million. At the time of the HAI acquisition, HAI managed
the care of approximately 16.3 million covered lives, primarily through employee
assistance programs 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 $60.0 million annually
to Aetna over the five-year period subsequent to closing. The maximum aggregate
amount of contingent payments is $300.0 million. 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 Company is obligated to make contingent
payments under two separate calculations. Under the first calculation, the
amount and timing of the contingent payments will be based on growth in the
number of lives covered by certain HAI products during the next five years. The
Company may be required to make contingent payments of up to $25.0 million per
year for each of the five years following the HAI acquisition depending on the
net annual growth in the number of lives covered by such products. The amount to
be paid per incremental covered life decreases during the five-year term of the
Company's contingent payment obligation. Under the second calculation, the
Company may be required to make contingent payments of up to $35.0 million per
year for each of five years based on the net cumulative growth in the number of
lives covered by certain other HAI products. Aetna will receive a specified
amount per net incremental life covered by such products. The amount to be paid
per incremental covered life increases with the number of incremental covered
lives. The Company would record additional consideration paid or payable to
Aetna under the above calculations as goodwill and identifiable intangible
assets.

    On March 26, 1999, the Company paid Aetna $60.0 million of additional
consideration for the purchase of HAI under the above calculations with respect
to the first contract year after closing. The amount was accounted for as
additional goodwill and identifiable intangible assets.

    ALLIED ACQUISITION.  On December 5, 1997, the Company purchased Allied for
approximately $70.0 million, excluding transaction costs, and accounted for the
Allied acquisition using the purchase method of accounting. The purchase price
the Company originally paid for Allied was funded from cash on hand and
consisted of a $50.0 million payment to the former owners of Allied and a $20.0
million deposit into an interest-bearing escrow account (the "Allied Escrow
Deposit"). The Company was required to pay up to $60.0 million, including the
Allied Escrow Deposit, during the three years following the closing of the
Allied acquisition if Allied's performance exceeded certain earnings targets.

    During the quarter ended December 31, 1998, the Company and the former
owners of Allied amended the Allied purchase agreement (the "Allied
Amendments"). The Allied Amendments resulted in the following changes to the
original terms of the Allied purchase agreement:

    -  The Allied Escrow Deposit and all interest accrued thereon was returned
       to the Company;

    -  The Company paid the former owners of Allied $4.5 million of additional
       consideration for the purchase of Allied. This additional consideration
       was accounted for as additional goodwill; and

    -  The Company capped future obligations with respect to additional
       contingent payments for the purchase of Allied at $3.0 million. The
       earnings targets which must be met by Allied for this amount to be paid
       were increased.

                                       4

    Allied provides specialty risk-based products and administrative services to
a variety of insurance companies and other customers. Allied's services cover
approximately three million aggregate lives through physician networks across
the eastern United States. Allied's networks include physicians specializing in
cardiology, oncology and diabetes.

    GREEN SPRING MINORITY STOCKHOLDER CONVERSION.  The minority stockholders of
Green Spring Health Services, Inc. ("Green Spring") converted their interests in
Green Spring into an aggregate of 2,831,516 shares of the Company's common stock
with an aggregate value of $63.5 million during January 1998. As a result of the
Green Spring minority stockholder conversion, the Company owns 100% of Green
Spring. The Company accounted for the Green Spring minority stockholder
conversion as a purchase of minority interest at the fair value of the
consideration paid.

    MERIT ACQUISITION.  On February 12, 1998, the Company acquired all of the
outstanding stock of Merit for approximately $448.9 million in cash plus the
repayment of Merit's debt. The Company accounted for the Merit acquisition using
the purchase method of accounting. At the time of the Merit acquisition, Merit
managed behavioral healthcare programs for approximately 21.6 million covered
lives across all segments of the healthcare industry, including HMO's, Blue
Cross/Blue Shield organizations and other insurance companies, employers and
labor unions, federal, state and local government agencies, and various state
Medicaid programs. In connection with the consummation of the Merit acquisition,
the Company consummated certain related transactions as follows: (i) the Company
terminated its existing credit agreement (the "Magellan Existing Credit
Agreement"); (ii) the Company repaid all loans outstanding pursuant to and
terminated Merit's existing credit agreement (the "Merit Existing Credit
Agreement"); (iii) the Company completed a tender offer for its 11 1/4% Series A
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2004 (the "Magellan Outstanding Notes"); (iv)
Merit completed a tender offer for its 11 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due
2005 (the "Merit Outstanding Notes"); (v) the Company entered into a new senior
secured bank credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") providing for credit
facilities of $700.0 million; and (vi) the Company issued its 9% Series A Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "Notes") pursuant to an indenture, dated
February 12, 1998, between the Company and Marine Midland Bank, as Trustee (the
"Indenture"). The Credit Agreement provides for (a) a term loan facility in an
aggregate principal amount of $550.0 million (the "Term Loan Facility"),
consisting of three separately maturing $183.3 million tranches with different
interest rates (London inter-bank offered rate ("LIBOR") plus 2.25%, 2.50% or
2.75%) and (b) a revolving credit facility providing for revolving loans to the
Company and the "Subsidiary Borrowers" (as defined therein) and the issuance of
letters of credit for the account of the Company and the Subsidiary Borrowers in
an aggregate principal amount (including the aggregate stated amount of letters
of credit) of $150.0 million (the "Revolving Facility").

- ------------------------

(1) The Revolving Facility provides for borrowings of up to $150.0 million. At
    February 12, 1998, the Company had approximately $112.5 million available
    for borrowing pursuant to the Revolving Facility, excluding approximately
    $17.5 million of availability reserved for certain letters of credit.

(2) Includes principal amount of $193.6 million and accrued interest of $2.7
    million.

(3) Includes principal amount of $375.0 million, tender premium of $43.4 million
    and accrued interest of $13.7 million.

(4) Includes principal amount of $100.0 million, tender premium of $18.9 million
    and accrued interest of $2.8 million.

(5) Transaction costs include, among other things, expenses associated with the
    tender offers for the Magellan Outstanding Notes and the Merit Outstanding
    Notes, the Notes offering, the Merit acquisition and the Credit Agreement

    By virtue of acquiring Merit, the Company may be required to make certain
contingent payments to the former shareholders of CMG Health, Inc. ("CMG"),
based on the performance of three CMG customer contracts. CMG was acquired by
Merit in September, 1997. Such contingent payments are subject to an aggregate
maximum of $23.5 million. The Company has initiated legal proceedings against
certain former owners of CMG with respect to representations made by such former
owners in conjunction with Merit's acquisition of CMG. Whether any contingent
payments will be made to the former shareholders of CMG and the amount and
timing of contingent payments, if any, are subject to the outcome of these
proceedings.

    EUROPE SALE.  On April 9, 1999, the Company sold its European psychiatric
provider operations to Investment AB Bure of Sweden for approximately $57.0
million (before transaction costs of approximately $2.5 million). The sale
resulted in a non-recurring gain of approximately $23.9 million before provision
for income taxes.

    The Company used approximately $38.2 million of the net sale proceeds to
make mandatory unscheduled principal payments on indebtedness outstanding under
the Term Loan Facility. The remaining proceeds were used to reduce borrowings
outstanding under the Revolving Facility.

    DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS.  The historical financial information for the
impact of the CBHS Transactions is presented under the column entitled
"Discontinued Operations" in the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial
Statements. The Unaudited Pro Forma Statements of Operations for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998 and the nine months ended June 30, 1998
and 1999 effects for the restatement necessary to separately report discontinued
operations as required by APB 30. The Unaudited Pro Forma Balance Sheet at June
30, 1999 assigns no value to the Company's remaining 10% common ownership
interest in CBHS and assumes that the Provider JVs and certain other real estate
and interests were transferred to CBHS, effective June 30, 1999.

(1) Adjustments to cash and cash equivalents and accumulated deficit represent
    estimated transaction costs (primarily investment banking fees, legal fees
    and accounting fees) directly related to the CBHS Transactions.

(2) Adjustments to cash and cash equivalents and accrued liabilities represents
    the settlement of amounts due to CBHS pursuant to the Provider JV services
    agreements and other working capital matters.

(3) Adjustments to cash and cash equivalents, property and equipment, investment
    in unconsolidated subsidiaries, accrued liabilities and long-term debt
    represent the impact of the probable disposal of the Heights joint venture
    and related real estate, which was excluded from the CBHS Transactions.

(4) Adjustment to accrued liabilities and accumulated deficit represents the
    estimated losses that will be incurred subsequent to the APB 30 measurement
    date. The estimated losses relate primarily to (i) legal costs that will be
    incurred through the disposal date of the Provider JVs and (ii) incremental
    legal costs that will be incurred as a direct result of the CBHS
    Transactions.

(5) Adjustments to deferred credits and other long-term liabilities and
    accumulated deficit represents the amount payable to CBHS pursuant to the
    terms of the CBHS Transactions.

(6) Adjustments to additional paid-in capital, deferred income taxes and
    accumulated deficit represent elimination of the additional paid-in capital
    of the discontinued operations and the impact of the net loss from the CBHS
    Transactions.

    The pro forma loss from the CBHS Transactions is computed as follows:

    The Company may be required to make additional contingent payments to Aetna
    of up to $60.0 million annually during the five years following the
    consummation of the HAI acquisition for aggregate potential contingent
    payments of $300.0 million. These contingent payments would be recorded as
    goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, which would result in estimated
    additional annual amortization of $11.0 million to $13.0 million in future
    periods if all the contingent payments are made. The Company made the first
    such payment of $60.0 million to Aetna on March 26, 1999.

    The Company paid $4.5 million of additional consideration to the former
    owners of Allied during the three months ended December 31, 1998, and may
    also be required to make additional contingent payments to the former owners
    of Allied of up to $3.0 million under certain circumstances. The $4.5
    million payment was recorded as goodwill, and the $3.0 million, if paid,
    would be recorded as goodwill as well. If both payments were made, estimated
    annual amortization would increase by approximately $0.2 million.

     (a) Amount represents the net amount of proceeds from the Europe Sale used
       to reduce the Company's indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility as
       required by the Credit Agreement.

     (b) Amount represents the net amount of proceeds from the Europe Sale
       remaining after the reduction of the Company's indebtedness under the
       Term Loan Facility. The pro forma presentation presumes this amount would
       have been used to reduce average amounts outstanding under the Revolving
       Facility.

(11)  Adjustments to managed care integration costs represent the elimination of
      the expenses incurred by the Company as a direct result of the Merit
      acquisition and the Allied acquisition. The Company's management has
      committed to a plan (the "Integration Plan") to combine and integrate the
      operations of its behavioral managed healthcare ("Behavioral") business
      segment, which was formed through acquisitions consummated in fiscal 1996
      (Green Spring) and fiscal 1998 (HAI and Merit), and its specialty managed
      healthcare ("Specialty") business segment, which was formed through
      acquisitions consummated in fiscal 1997 (Care Management Resources, Inc.)
      and fiscal 1998 (Allied). The Integration Plan was implemented to
      eliminate duplicative functions and to standardize business practices and
      information technology platforms.

     The Integration Plan will result in the elimination of approximately 1,000
     positions during fiscal 1998 and fiscal 1999. Approximately 510 employees
     had been involuntarily terminated pursuant to the Integration Plan as of
     June 30, 1999. The remaining positions have been or will be eliminated
     through normal attrition.

     The employee groups of the Behavioral Managed Healthcare segment that are
     primarily affected include executive management, finance, human resources,
     information systems and legal personnel at the various corporate
     headquarters and regional offices and credentialing, claims processing,
     contracting and marketing personnel at various operating locations.

     The Integration Plan has resulted in the closure and identified closure of
     approximately 20 leased facilities during fiscal 1998 and fiscal 1999. The
     Company expects the remaining office closures, if any, to be insignificant.

     The Company recorded approximately $21.3 million of liabilities related to
     the Integration Plan, of which $12.4 million was recorded as part of the
     Merit purchase price allocation and $8.9 million was recorded in the
     statement of operations under "Managed care integration costs" in fiscal
     1998. The Company may record adjustments to such liabilities in fiscal 1999
     depending upon the Company's ability to sublease closed offices and upon
     determination of the final amount of the Company's severance obligations.

     The Integration Plan will result in additional incremental costs that must
     be expensed as incurred in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force
     Consensus 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination
     Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs
     Incurred in a Restructuring)" that are not described above and certain
     other charges. Other integration costs include, but are not limited to,
     outside consultants, costs to relocate closed office

     contents and long-lived asset impairments. Other integration costs are
     reflected in the statement of operations under "Managed care integration
     costs."

     During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998, and the nine months ended
     June 30, 1999, the Company incurred approximately $8.1 million and $3.3
     million of other integration costs, respectively.

(12)  Adjustments to gain on Europe Sale and to special charges represent the
      elimination of non-recurring gains on the Europe Sale and the sale of
      assets formerly used in the Company's psychiatric hospital provider
      business, offset primarily by the elimination of Merit's transaction costs
      related to the Merit acquisition.

(13)  Adjustments to provision for income taxes represent the tax expense
      related to the pro forma adjustments at the Company's historical average
      statutory income tax rate of 40% and the imputed income tax expense on the
      pre-acquisition operating results of Allied, which was an S-corporation
      for income tax purposes and historically did not provide for income taxes
      prior to its acquisition by the Company.

(14)  Adjustments to minority interest and average number of common shares
      outstanding (basic and diluted) represent the effect of the Green Spring
      minority stockholder conversion.

(15)  Adjustment to average number of common shares outstanding-diluted
      represents the elimination of common stock equivalents which become
      anti-dilutive as a result of the pro forma net loss for fiscal 1996, 1997
      and 1998 and for the nine months ended June 30, 1998.
