RISK FACTORS
Before you invest in shares of our Common Stock, you should be aware that
there are various risks, including those described below. You should carefully consider carefully these riskthe following factors together with all of theand other
information included or incorporated by reference in this Prospectusprospectus before
you decidedeciding to purchaseinvest in shares of common stock.
We face substantial competition in our Common Stock. This section includes or refers to certain
forward-looking statements; you should refer to the explanation of the
qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements discussed
above.
Dependence on RxCare Relationship
RxCare of Tennessee, Inc. ("RxCare"), a pharmacy services administrative
organization owned by the Tennessee Pharmacists Association and representing
approximately 1,600 retail pharmacies, initially retained us in 1993 to assist
in obtaining health plan pharmaceutical benefit business for Tennessee
pharmacies and related services, including pharmacy benefit design and pricing.
In January 1994, the State of Tennessee instituted its TennCare(TM) state health
program ("TennCare") by contracting with plan sponsors to provide mandated
health services to Medicaid eligible Tennessee residents on a capitated basis.
In turn, certain of these plan sponsors contracted with RxCare to provide
TennCare-mandated pharmaceutical benefits to their TennCare beneficiaries
through RxCare's network of retail pharmacies, in most cases on a corresponding
capitated basis. Over time, substantially all of these contracts have been
restructured or renewed under fee-for-service pricing arrangements.
Since January 1994, we have been providing a broad range of pharmacy
benefit management services with respect to RxCare's TennCare and private
pharmaceutical benefit businesses under an agreement with RxCare formalized in
March 1994 and thereafter amended (the "RxCare Contract"). We assist RxCare in
designing and marketing its pharmacy benefit management services, and perform
essentially all of RxCare's obligations under its pharmacy benefit contracts
with health plan sponsors, pay certain amounts to RxCare and are compensated by
sharing with RxCare in the profit, if any, from activities under RxCare's
contracts with the sponsors.
As of December 31, 1997, we had contracts to service eight TennCare
sponsors with 1.2 million members under the RxCare Contract. RxCare's contracts
with Tennessee Primary Care Network, Inc., Tennessee Health Partnership,
Tennessee Behavioral Health, Inc. and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Tennessee
("BCBS-TN") accounted for approximately 21%, 13%, 10% and 10%, respectively, of
our revenues in 1997. While we believe that each of these contracts will be
renewed, we cannot assure you that all or any one of these contracts will be
renewed at all or on terms as favorable as those currently in effect. The
failure to so renew all or any of these contracts on terms at least as favorable
as those currently in effect could have a material adverse effect on our
business and results of operations.
4
The RxCare Contract expires on December 31, 1998. In total, this contract
accounted for 84% of our revenues in 1997. Failure to renew this contract in
total or on terms as favorable as those currently in effect could have a
material adverse affect on our business and results of operations. The BCBS - TN
risk-based contract was canceled effective March 31, 1997 and replaced with a
non-risk (fee-for-service) clinical services agreement between us and a BCBS -
TN affiliate.
Limited Term of Material Agreements
The RxCare Contract is scheduled to expire December 31, 1998 unless renewed
in accordance with its terms. RxCare's contracts with plan sponsors typically
have a one-year term and are subject to automatic renewal unless notice of
termination is given. Those contracts are subject to earlier termination upon
the occurrence of certain events, including a breach of the agreement which is
not cured within 30 days of notice, insolvency or termination of the TennCare
program or of a plan sponsor's contract with the State of Tennessee. RxCare's
contracts with Tennessee Primary Care Network, Inc., Tennessee Health
Partnership, Tennessee Behavioral Health, Inc. and BCBS - TN accounted for
approximately 21%, 13%, 10% and 10%, respectively, of our revenues in 1997. We
cannot guarantee that any of the foregoing contracts or the RxCare Contract will
be continued or renewed in accordance with their respective terms. The loss of
any of such contracts would have a material adverse effect on our business and
results of operations.
We Have Had Historical Accounting Losses; We May Experience Future Losses
We had losses of approximately $13.5 million, $31.8 million, $6.8 million
and $2.5 million in the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. These historical results are not indicative of future results, but
we cannot assure you that we will not incur net losses in the future.
Competitionindustries. The pharmacy
benefit management business isindustry, which we refer to as the PBM industry, the
prescription mail service and the specialty pharmaceutical businesses are highly
competitive and many of our current and potential competitors have considerably
greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources.resources than we do. The pharmacy benefit managementPBM
business includes a number of large, well capitalizedwell-capitalized companies with nationwide
operations and many smaller organizations typically operating on a local or
regional basis. SomeOne of the larger organizations areis owned by or otherwise related
to a brand name drug manufacturer and may have significant influence on the
distribution of pharmaceuticals.
Numerous insuranceWe also compete with several national and Blue Crossregional companies that
primarily provide therapeutic pharmaceutical services to the chronically ill and
Blue
Shield plans,genetically impaired, many of which also have substantial financial resources.
Some of these competitors have been in the specialty pharmaceutical industry
considerably longer than we have and have secured long-term supply or
distribution arrangements for prescription pharmaceuticals necessary to treat
certain chronic disease states on price terms substantially more favorable than
the terms currently available to us. As a result of such advantageous pricing,
we may be unable to compete with these companies on particular prescription
products or in particular disease states.
Any change in our relationship with managed care organizations
providing health and prescription benefits under Tennessee's state health
program could reduce our profitability. Historically, a majority of our revenues
have been derived from providing PBM services in the state of Tennessee to
managed care organizations, or MCOs, participating in Tennessee's TennCare (R)
program. The TennCare (R) program operates under a demonstration waiver from the
United States Health Care Financing Agency, which is due to expire on
3
December 31, 2001. We provide our ongoing service to those MCOs under this
demonstration waiver program. If the waiver is not renewed, or we are not chosen
to continue to provide pharmacy benefits to enrollees of a successor program,
then the failure to provide such services would have a material adverse effect
on our financial position and results of operations. The ongoing funding for the
TennCare (R) program has been the subject of significant discussion at various
governmental levels since its inception. Should the funding sources for the
TennCare (R) program change significantly, our ability to serve those customers
could be impacted and would have a material adverse effect on our financial
position and results of operations.
Increases in the price of pharmaceuticals may reduce our revenues.
Under capitated arrangements, we are responsible for increases in prescription
costs, which adversely affects our gross profits. In such instances, we may be
required to increase capitated contract rates on new contracts and upon renewal
of existing capitated contracts. However, there can be no assurance that we will
be successful in obtaining these rate increases.
If we lose relationships with one or more key pharmaceutical
manufacturers or if the payments we receive from pharmaceutical manufacturers
decline, our business, profitability and growth prospects could suffer. We have
contractual relationships with numerous pharmaceutical manufacturers that pay us
rebate payments based on use of selected drugs by health plan members, as well
as fees for other programs and services. We believe our business, profitability
and growth prospects could suffer if:
o we lose relationships with one or more key pharmaceutical
manufacturers;
o rebates decline due to our failure to meet market share or other
thresholds;
o legal restrictions are imposed on the ability of pharmaceutical
manufacturers to offer formulary rebates or purchase our programs or
services; or
o pharmaceutical manufacturers choose not to offer formulary rebates or
purchase our programs or services.
Over the next few years, as patents expire covering many brand name
drugs that currently have substantial market share, generic products will be
introduced that may substantially reduce the market share of the brand name
drugs. Historically, manufacturers of generic drugs have not offered formulary
rebates on their drugs. If the use of newly-approved, brand name drugs added to
our formulary, which is the list of preferred prescription drugs covered by a
health plan, does not offset any decline in use of brand name drugs whose
patents expire, our profitability could be reduced.
If we lose pharmacy network affiliations, our business,
profitability and growth prospects could suffer. Our contracts with retail
pharmacies, which are non-exclusive, are generally terminable by either party on
short notice. If one or more of the top pharmacy chains elects to terminate its
relationship with us or if we are only able to continue our relationship on
terms less favorable to us, our members' access to retail pharmacies and our
business could suffer. In addition, some large retail pharmacy chains either own
or have strategic alliances with PBMs or could attempt to acquire or enter into
4
these kinds of relationships with PBMs in the future. Ownership of, or alliances
with, PBMs by retail pharmacy chains could have a material adverse effect on our
relationships with these retail pharmacy chains and on our business,
profitability and growth prospects.
We are subject to heightened federal regulatory scrutiny, which
could result in sanctions or penalties. As a participant in the healthcare
industry, our operations and relationships are subject to extensive federal and
state laws and regulations and enforcement by federal and state governmental
agencies. There are significant uncertainties regarding the application of many
of these legal requirements to our business, and we cannot provide any assurance
that a regulatory agency charged with enforcement of any of these laws or
regulations will not interpret them differently or, if there is an enforcement
action brought against us, that our interpretation would prevail. In addition,
there are numerous proposed health care laws and regulations at the federal and
state levels, many of which could materially affect our ability to conduct our
business or adversely affect our results of operations. We are unable to predict
what additional federal or state legislation or regulatory initiatives may be
enacted in the future relating to our business or the health care industry in
general, or what effect any such legislation or regulations might have on us.
Under a corporate integrity agreement we entered into with the
Office of Inspector General or OIG, within the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services or HHS, we are subject to increased oversight by the OIG. Should
the oversight procedures reveal credible evidence of any violation of federal
law, we are required to report such potential violations to the OIG and the U.S.
Department of Justice. We are therefore subject to increased regulatory scrutiny
and, if we commit legal or regulatory violations, we may be subject to an
increased risk of sanctions or penalties, including exclusion from participation
in the Medicare or Medicaid programs.
Subject to certain statutory and regulatory exceptions (including
exceptions relating to certain managed care, discount, group purchasing and
personal services arrangements), Federal law prohibits the payment or receipt of
remuneration to induce, arrange for or recommend the purchase of health care
items or services paid for in whole or in part by Medicare or state health care
programs (including Medicaid programs or Medicaid waiver programs, such as
TennCare (R)). Certain state laws may extend the prohibition to items or
services that are paid for by private insurance and self-pay patients. Our
arrangements with RxCare of Tennessee, Inc., a pharmacy services administrative
organization owned by the Tennessee Pharmacists Association, and other pharmacy
network administrators, drug chainsmanufacturers, marketing agents, brokers, health
plan sponsors, pharmacies and others parties routinely involve payments to or
from persons who provide or purchase, or recommend or arrange for the purchase
of, items or services paid in part by the TennCare (R) program or by other
programs covered by such laws. We carefully consider the importance of such
"anti-kickback" laws when structuring our operations, and believe that we are in
compliance with such laws. Violation of the Federal anti-kickback statute could
subject us to criminal and/or civil penalties, including exclusion from Medicare
and Medicaid (including TennCare (R)) programs or state-funded programs in the
case of state enforcement.
The federal anti-kickback law has been interpreted broadly by
courts, the OIG and administrative bodies. Because of the federal statutes,
broad scope, federal regulations establish certain safe harbors from liability.

Safe harbors exist for certain properly reported discounts received from
vendors, certain investment interest, and certain properly disclosed payments
made by vendors to group purchasing organizations, as well as for other
transactions or relationships. In late 1999, HHS adopted final rules revising
the discount safe harbor to protect certain rebates. Because this revision is
fairly recent, the guidance on how the safe harbor revision will be interpreted
is not fully developed. Nonetheless, a practice that does not fall within a safe
harbor is not necessarily unlawful, but may be subject to scrutiny and
challenge. In the absence of an applicable exception or safe harbor, a violation
of the statute may occur even if only one purpose of a payment arrangement is to
induce patient referrals or purchases. Among the practices that have been
identified by the OIG as potentially improper under the statute are certain
"product conversion programs" in which benefits are given by drug manufacturers
to pharmacists or physicians for changing a prescription (or recommending or
requesting such a change) from one drug to another. Anti-kickback laws have been
cited as a partial basis, along with state consumer protection laws, for
investigations and multi-state settlements relating to financial incentives
provided by drug manufacturers to retail pharmacies in connection with such
programs.
Certain governmental entities have commenced investigations of PBM
companies and other companies having dealings with the PBM industry and have
identified issues concerning selection of drug formularies, therapeutic
substitution programs and discounts or rebates from prescription drug
manufacturers. Additionally, at least one state has filed a lawsuit concerning
similar issues against a health plan. To date, we have not been the subject of
any such investigation or suit and have not received subpoenas or been requested
to produce documents for any such investigation or suit. However, there can be
no assurance that we will not receive subpoenas or be requested to produce
documents in pending investigations or litigations in the future.
We believe that we are in compliance with the legal requirements
imposed by the anti-remuneration laws and regulations, and we believe that there
are material and substantial differences between drug switching programs that
have been challenged under these laws and the therapeutic interchange practices
and formulary management programs offered by us to our customers. However, there
can be no assurance that we will not be subject to scrutiny or challenge under
such laws or regulations, or that any such challenge would not have a material
adverse effect upon us.
Pending and future litigation could materially affect our
relationships with pharmaceutical manufacturers or subject us to significant
monetary damages. Since 1993, retail pharmacies have filed over 100 separate
lawsuits against pharmaceutical manufacturers, wholesalers and certain PBMs,
challenging brand name drug pricing practices under various state and federal
antitrust laws. The plaintiffs alleged, among other things, that the
manufacturers had offered, and certain PBMs had knowingly accepted, discounts
and rebates on purchases of brand name prescription drugs that violated the
Federal Sherman Act and the Federal Robinson-Patman Act. Some manufacturers
settled certain of these actions, including a Sherman Act case brought on behalf
of a nationwide class of retail pharmacies. The class action settlements
generally provided for commitments by the manufacturers in their discounting
practices to retail pharmacies. The defendants who did not settle won the
6
Sherman Act class action on a directed verdict. With respect to the cases filed
by plaintiffs who opted out of the class action, some drug manufacturers have
settled certain of these actions, but such settlements are not part of the
public record. The Robinson-Patman Act cases are still pending.
We are not currently a party to any of these proceedings. To date,
we do not believe any of these settlements have had a material adverse effect on
our business. However, we cannot provide any assurance that the terms of the
settlements will not materially adversely affect us in the future or that we
will not be made a party to any separate lawsuit. In addition, we cannot predict
the outcome or possible ramifications to our business of the Robinson-Patman Act
cases.
If legislative or regulatory initiatives restrict our ability to use
patient identifiable medical information, our clinical programs and our business
growth strategy based on these services could suffer. Through our health
improvement programs, we help our health plan sponsor customers identify
individuals who will most benefit from the programs. Governmental restrictions
on the use of patient identifiable information may adversely affect our ability
to conduct health improvement programs and medical outcome studies and could
adversely affect our growth strategy based on these programs. Federal and state
legislation has been proposed, and some state laws have been enacted, to
restrict the use and disclosure of patient identifiable medical information.
Legislation could be enacted in the future that severely restricts or prohibits
our use of patient identifiable information, which could harm our business,
profitability and growth prospects.
In December 2000, HHS issued final regulations regarding the privacy
of individually-identifiable health information pursuant to the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA. This final rule on privacy
applies to both electronic and paper records and imposes extensive requirements
on the way in which health care providers, health plan sponsors and their
business associates use and disclose protected information. The final rule gives
patients significant rights to understand and control how their protected health
information is used and disclosed. Direct providers, such as pharmacies, are
required to obtain patient consents for treatment, payment and health care
operations. For all uses or disclosures of protected information that do not
involve treatment, payment or health care operations, the rule requires that all
covered entities obtain a valid patient authorization. In most cases, use or
disclosure of protected health information must be limited to the minimum amount
necessary to achieve the purpose of the use or disclosure. Organizations subject
to the rule will have approximately two years to comply with its provisions. In
addition, HHS has proposed, but not yet finalized, regulations pursuant to HIPAA
that govern the security of individually-identifiable health information.
Sanctions for failing to comply with standards issued pursuant to HIPAA include
criminal penalties and civil sanctions. Due to the complex and controversial
nature of the privacy regulations, they may be subject to court challenge, as
well as further legislative and regulatory actions that could alter their
effect. We cannot at this time predict with specificity what impact the recently
adopted final rule on the privacy of individually-identifiable health
information, or the proposed rule on security of individually-identifiable
health information may have on us. However, they will likely increase our burden
of regulatory compliance with respect to our health improvement programs and
other information-based products, and may reduce the amount of information we
may use if patients do not consent to such use. There can be no assurance that
the restrictions and duties imposed by the recently adopted final rule on the
privacy of individually-identifiable health information, or the proposed rule on
security of individually-identifiable health information, will not have a
material adverse effect on our business, profitability and growth prospects.
7
Even without new legislation and beyond the final federal
regulations, individual health plan sponsor customers could prohibit us from
including their patients' medical information in our various databases of
medical data. They could also have their
own pharmacy benefit management capabilities.
Dependence on Key Managementprohibit us from offering services that involve
the compilation of such information.
The loss of a key employee could cause our business to suffer. Our
success is largely dependent on the services of Richard H. Friedman, our
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and to a lesser extent, other key
management personnel. We have an employment agreement with Mr. Friedman which
provides for his continued employment. However, we cannot assure you that we
will be able to retain his services or the services of any other key management
personnel. The loss of the services of one or more of our senior management
could have a
material adverse effect uponcause our business, operating resultsprofitability and financial
condition.
Riskgrowth prospects to suffer.
We have anti-takeover provisions that could delay or prevent a
change in control, even if it would benefit stockholders. We have adopted
anti-takeover provisions that could delay or prevent a third party from gaining
control of Managing Growth
Since we went publicus in Augusta transaction that our board of 1996, we have been attemptingdirectors has not negotiated
and approved, even if such change in control would be beneficial to grow at
a rapid pace. Rapid growth may strain our
financial resources. Our ability to
manage growth effectively will require that we continue to hire, train and
manage additional employees. We cannot assure you that we will be able to
continue to expand ourstockholders. These anti-takeover provisions could depress the market presence in current locations or successfully
enter other markets. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our
business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Risk Associated with Expansion
Our current strategy contemplates the continued growthprice of
our company
through mergerscommon stock. These anti-takeover provisions include:
o change in control provisions in employment agreements with various
executive officers;
o restrictions on who may call a special meeting of stockholders; and
acquisitions of other companies and business entities which
engage in pharmaceutical benefit management services. However, any business
acquisition involves inherent uncertainties, such as the effect on the acquired
business of integration intoo a larger organization and the availability of
management resources to oversee the operation of the acquired business.
Potential obstacles to the successful integration of the acquired business
include, among others, consolidating financial, accounting and managerial
functions and eliminating operational overlaps between our businesses, and
adding and integrating key personnel. Even though the acquired businesses may
have been successful as independent companies prior to the merger or
acquisition, we cannot assure you that their success will continue after the
merger or acquisition.

issuance of 3,912,448 shares of Common Stock in the merger with Continental

due to a scheduled change in management, our executive officers and directors
will own approximately 11.5% (assuming no sales of shares by such persons
subsequent to such date) after the merger. Together, after the merger, our
executive officers and directors will have the power to influence the outcome of
virtually all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, including the
election of directors. In addition, after the merger, John H. Klein (formerly
Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors) and E. David

independently or together, will have the power to influence the outcome of
virtually all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, including the

Government Regulation
Our current and planned businesses are subject to extensive federal and
state laws and regulations. Subject to certain exceptions, federal law (the
"Federal Anti-Kickback Statute") prohibits the payment or receipt of any
remuneration, directly or indirectly, to induce, arrange for or recommend the
purchase of health care items or services paid for in whole or in part by
Medicare or state health care programs (including Medicaid and TennCare). In
addition, certain state laws (including professional licensing laws prohibiting
fee-splitting) contain similar provisions that may extend the prohibition to
cover items or services that are paid for by private insurance and self-pay
patients. We cannot assure you that our practices will be found to be protected
by certain so-called "safe harbor" regulations, which provide insulation from
prosecution under the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, and in some instances it is
clear that they are not so protected. We are also subject to various false
claim, drug distribution, antitrust and consumer protection laws and maycommon stock could be subject to certainwide fluctuations in response to
quarter-to-quarter variations in our operating results, government regulatory
action, general conditions in the pharmaceutical industry, increased price
competition, changes in earnings estimates by analysts or other laws,events or
factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the stock market has
experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations.

USE OF PROCEEDS
The selling stockholder will receive all net proceeds from the operation of pharmacies and the dispensing of prescription drugs.
In many cases, these laws include provisions which regulate out-of-state mail
service pharmacies that mail drugs into the state. The regulations are
administered by a state regulatory body (typically, a pharmacy board) which is
empowered to impose sanctions, which may include license suspension or
revocation for noncompliance. In those states where they exist, state laws
regulating out-of-state pharmacies essentially are disclosure laws. Disclosure
laws generally require that out-of-state pharmacies register with the local
board of pharmacy, follow certain procedures and make certain disclosures, but
generally permit the mail order pharmacy to operate in accordance with the lawssale of
the state in which the pharmacy operations are located. We believe that we
are in material compliance with all of these disclosure laws. To date, there
have been no formal administrative or judicial efforts to enforce any such laws
against us.
In addition to the above-described laws and regulations, there are federal
statutes and regulations which establish standards for all pharmacies concerning
the labeling, packaging, advertising and adulteration of prescription drugs and
the dispensing of "controlled" substances and prescription drugs. Federal Trade
Commission and United States Postal Service regulations require mail order
sellers to engage in truthful advertising, to stock a reasonable supply of
drugs, fill mail orders within thirty (30) days and, if impossible, to inform
the consumer of his or her right to a refund. We believe that we are in
substantial compliance with all such requirements.
Risk-Based ("Capitated") Agreements
Approximately 53% of our revenue during 1997 and approximately 37% of our
revenue for the first half of 1998 was derived from agreements through which we
receive a pre-determined fee each month for each member enrolled in a particular
health plan in return for providing certain covered pharmacy services to plan
members; these agreements are known as "capitated" agreements. We generally
negotiate the capitation fee for a particular plan (or subset of individuals
within a plan) based upon a number of factors, including competitive conditions
within a particular market and the expected costs of providing the covered
pharmacy services. Expected costs are generally based on prior experience with
similar groups and demographic data based on the population at large. Data with
respect to prior experience may not be available and, if available, may not be a
reliable indicator of the actual results for a particular plan. The cost of
providing pharmacy services varies among plan participants and groups and is
affected by many factors, including formulary design and compliance, generic
substitution rate, drug utilization by persons covered under such arrangements,
the effect of inflation on drug costs and the co-payment structure. During the
early stages of a contract, the cost of providing pharmacy services typically
exceeds the capitation fee, primarily due to the lag between the commencement of
the contract and the full implementation of the formulary and our other cost and
clinical management containment measures. We cannot assure you that the cost of
providing pharmacy services will not exceed the capitation fee, either per
member or per plan, throughout the entire contract term.
7
Professional Liability Risk
The services provided by us may subject us to litigation and liability for
damages. We believe that our insurance protection is adequate for our present
and contemplated business operations. However, we cannot assure you that we will
be able to obtain and maintain insurance coverage in the future or that such
insurance coverage will be available on acceptable terms or will be adequate to
cover any or all potential professional liability, product liability or other
claims. A successful claim in excess of our insurance coverage could have a
material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Dependence on Information Systems
We believe that our on-line claims processing (or adjudication) systems are
an integral part of our business. We own our claims processing software and have
an agreement to acquire all software upgrades to such software to ensure that we
maintain a state-of-the-art claims processing system. Any significant
interruption in service of our computer or telephone systems could adversely
affect our ability to operate our business on a timely basis, and could
adversely affect our relations with pharmacies and health plan sponsors. Under a
contract with a third party, the third party guarantees that any disruption in
our computer or telephone systems will be rectified within 48 hours of us
notifying the third party. Although no assurance can be given, we believe that
this disaster recovery arrangement is sufficient to prevent any disruption from
having a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or
long-term operations.
Effect of Certain Legal Proceedings
On March 5, 1996, Pro-Mark Holdings, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, was
added as a third-party defendant in a proceeding in the Superior Court of the
State of Rhode Island, and on September 16, 1996 the third-party complaint was
amended to add MIM Corporation as a third-party defendant. The third-party
plaintiffs, Medical Marketing Group, Inc. ("MMG"), PPI Holding, Inc. ("PPI
Holding") and Payer Prescribing Information, Inc. ("PPI"), allege in the amended
third-party complaint: (i) that we employed E. David Corvese (our former Vice
Chairman) with knowledge of covenants not to compete in effect between Mr.
Corvese and PPI, PPI Holding and MMG that prevented Mr. Corvese from competing
in the area of the collection, analysis or marketing of data for the
pharmaceutical or health care industries relating to physician practice
demographics and the influence of managed care plans; (ii) that Mr. Corvese
breached his employment agreement with PPI and his fiduciary duties to PPI by
not devoting his full business time and attention to PPI from June 1993 through
November 1993 (when his employment was terminated by PPI), and (iii) that we
interfered with the contractual relationship between the parties and
misappropriated MMG's and PPI's confidential information through our employment
of Mr. Corvese. The amended third-party complaint seeks to enjoin us from using
confidential information allegedly misappropriated from MMG and PPI and seeks an
unspecified amount of compensatory and consequential damages, interest and
attorneys' fees. We believe that the third-party plaintiff's allegations are
without merit; however, loss of this litigation could have a material adverse
effect on our business and results of operations.
Possible Negative Effects of Preferred Stock
We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferredcommon stock. Our Board
of Directors may from time to time fix the designation, rights and preferences
of preferred stock (including voting, dividend, redemption and liquidation
rights) without further stockholder action. Shares of preferred stock could be
issued in the future with rights and preferences that could make the possible
takeover of us or the removal of our management more difficult or could
otherwise adversely impact the rights of holders of our Common Stock.
8
No Intention to Pay Dividends
We presently intend to retain all earnings, if any, to support the
operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying cash
dividends in the foreseeable future.
THE COMPANY
We are a pharmacy benefit management organization that provides a broad
range of services to the pharmaceutical health care industry and employers. We
promote the cost-effective delivery of pharmacy benefits to plan members and the
public. We target organizations involved in three key industry segments:
o sponsors of public and private health plans (such as HMOs and other
managed care organizations, long-term care facilities such as nursing
homes and assisted living facilities, and employers);
o retail pharmacies; and
o pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors.
We offer services providing financial benefits to each of them. We
specifically target small to medium sized HMOs, self-funded groups and third
party administrators (who in turn market to self-funded groups on our behalf).
We work with plan sponsors and local health care professionals on both a risk
(e.g., fixed cost per plan participant or "capitated") and non-risk (e.g., a
price per prescription submitted or "fee-for-service") basis to design,
implement and manage innovative pharmacy benefit management programs to control
pharmacy costs under the plans. Our programs promote the clinically appropriate
substitution of generic drugs and less expensive bio-equivalent brand name drugs
for equivalent but more expensive brand name drugs.
Our principal executive offices are located at One Blue Hill Plaza, Pearl
River, New York 10965 (Telephone Number: (914) 735-3555). Unless the context
otherwise requires, all references to "we," "us" or "our company" refers to MIM
Corporation and its predecessors and subsidiaries.

stockholders, may call a special meeting of stockholders; (iii) establish an
advance notice procedure regarding stockholder proposals to be brought before an
annual or special meeting; and (iv) authorize our Board of Directors to issue
preferred stock without further stockholder approval. These provisions are
designed to encourage any person who desires to take control of and/or acquire
our company to enter into negotiations with our Board of Directors, thereby
making more difficult a change in control of our company by means of a tender
offer, a proxy contest or other non-negotiated means. In addition to encouraging
any person intending to attempt a takeover of our company to negotiate with our
Board of Directors, these provisions also curtail such person's
11
use of a dominant equity interest to control any negotiations with our Board of
Directors. Under such circumstances, our Board of Directors may be better able
to make and implement reasoned business decisions and protect the interest of
all of our stockholders.
