The following message is being sent by e-mail to institutional shareholders of Quality Systems, Inc. on August 28, 2008:

 

I have nominated a slate for election as directors of Quality Systems who will be answerable only to the shareholders and will not be under my control or anyone else's. Shareholders can be assured that all of my nominees can stand up to Mr. Razin and will act independent of me and QSI management. I also am encouraged by the decision of RiskMetrics to support my bylaw proposal to tighten the definition of independent director. I believe that adoption of my proposal will enhance the independence of the Board.

 

I believe that the Company is missing the point with their message that neither I nor the individuals whom I have nominated have a strategy and business plan for the Company. Boards are responsible for overseeing management and requiring the management team to develop a viable business plan with input from the board, not vice versa.

 

The choice of the shareholders in next week's election is not between Mr. Plochocki and myself or even between Mr. Razin and myself. The choice is between a majority of the present board and the new slate of directors I propose. Shareholders should not allow management, which owns virtually no shares, to sway their choice of representatives to oversee management.

 

I urge you to give us your support to elect my nominees through the power of the cumulative voting process. I am confident that they will serve as a strong independent voice to protect your investment.

 

Best regards,

 

Ahmed Hussein
