CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2008 and for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and therefore do not include all information and footnotes which would be presented were such consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. Amounts related to disclosures of March 31, 2008 balances within these interim consolidated financial statements were derived from the aforementioned Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations to be expected for the full year.

References to dollar amounts in this financial statement section are in thousands, except share and per share data, unless otherwise specified.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. On May 20, 2008, the Company acquired Lackland Acquisition II, LLC dba Healthcare Strategic Initiatives (HSI), a full-service healthcare revenue management company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with fiscal year 2009 presentation.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes system sales revenue pursuant to Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (SOP 97-2), as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9 “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition” (SOP 98-9). The Company generates revenue from the sale of licensing rights to its software products directly to end-users and value-added resellers (VARs). The Company also generates revenue from sales of hardware and third party software, implementation, training, EDI, post-contract support (maintenance) and other services performed for customers who license its products.

A typical system contract contains multiple elements of the above items. SOP 98-9 requires revenue earned on software arrangements involving multiple elements to be allocated to each element based on the relative fair values of those elements. The fair value of an element must be based on vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE). The Company limits its assessment of VSOE for each element to either the price charged when the same element is sold separately or the price established by management having the relevant authority to do so, for an element not yet sold separately. VSOE calculations are updated and reviewed quarterly or annually depending on the nature of the product or service.

When evidence of fair value exists for the delivered and undelivered elements of a transaction, then discounts for individual elements are aggregated and the total discount is allocated to the individual elements in proportion to the elements’ fair value relative to the total contract fair value.

When evidence of fair value exists for the undelivered elements only, the residual method, provided for under SOP 98-9, is used. Under the residual method, the Company defers revenue related to the undelivered elements in a system sale based on VSOE of fair value of each of the undelivered elements, and allocates the remainder of the contract price net of all discounts to revenue recognized from the delivered elements. If VSOE of fair value of any undelivered element does not exist, all revenue is deferred until VSOE of fair value of the undelivered element is established or the element has been delivered.

The Company bills for the entire system sales contract amount upon contract execution except for maintenance which is billed separately. Amounts billed in excess of the amounts contractually due are recorded in accounts receivable as advance billings. Amounts are contractually due when services are performed or in accordance with contractually specified

5

payment dates. Provided the fees are fixed and determinable and collection is considered probable, revenue from licensing rights and sales of hardware and third party software is generally recognized upon shipment and transfer of title. In certain transactions where collections risk is high, the cash basis method is used to recognize revenue. If the fee is not fixed or determinable, then the revenue recognized in each period (subject to application of other revenue recognition criteria) will be the lesser of the aggregate of amounts due and payable or the amount of the arrangement fee that would have been recognized if the fees were being recognized using the residual method. Fees which are considered fixed or determinable at the inception of the Company’s arrangements must include the following characteristics:

§	The fee must be negotiated at the outset of an arrangement, and generally be based on the specific volume of products to be delivered without being subject to change based on variable pricing mechanisms such as the number of units copied or distributed or the expected number of users.
§	Payment terms must not be considered extended. If a significant portion of the fee is due more than 12 months after delivery or after the expiration of the license, the fee is presumed not fixed and determinable.

Revenue from implementation and training services is recognized as the corresponding services are performed. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the contractual maintenance period.

Contract accounting is applied where services include significant software modification, development or customization. In such instances, the arrangement fee is accounted for in accordance with Statement of Position No. 81-1 “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts” (SOP 81-1). Pursuant to SOP 81-1, the Company uses the percentage of completion method provided all of the following conditions exist:

§	the contract includes provisions that clearly specify the enforceable rights regarding goods or services to be provided and received by the parties, the consideration to be exchanged, and the manner and terms of settlement;
§	the customer can be expected to satisfy its obligations under the contract;
§	the Company can be expected to perform its contractual obligations; and
§	reliable estimates of progress towards completion can be made.

The Company measures completion using labor input hours. Costs of providing services, including services accounted for in accordance with SOP 81-1, are expensed as incurred.

If a situation occurs in which a contract is so short term that the financial statements would not vary materially from using the percentage-of-completion method or in which the Company is unable to make reliable estimates of progress of completion of the contract, the completed contract method is utilized.

Individual product returns are estimated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 48, “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists” (SFAS 48). The Company also ensures that the other criteria in SFAS 48 have been met prior to recognition of revenue:

§	the price is fixed or determinable;
§	the customer is obligated to pay and there are no contingencies surrounding the obligation or the payment;
§	the customer’s obligation would not change in the event of theft or damage to the product;
§	the customer has economic substance;
§	the amount of returns can be reasonably estimated; and
§	the Company does not have significant obligations for future performance in order to bring about resale of the product by the customer.

The Company has historically offered short-term rights of return in certain sales arrangements. If the Company is able to estimate returns for these types of arrangements, revenue is recognized and these arrangements are recorded in the consolidated financial statements. If the Company is unable to estimate returns for these types of arrangements, revenue is not recognized in the consolidated financial statements until the rights of return expire.

Revenue related to sales arrangements which include the right to use software stored on the Company’s hardware is accounted for under the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (EITF) No. 00-3 “Application of AICPA Statement of Position 97-2 to arrangements that include the right to use software stored on another entity’s hardware”. EITF No. 00-3 requires that for software licenses and related implementation services to continue to fall under SOP No. 97-2, the customer must have the contractual right to take possession of the software without incurring a significant penalty and it must be feasible for the customer to either host the software themselves or through another third party. If an arrangement is not deemed to be accounted

6

for under SOP 97-2, the entire arrangement is accounted for as a service contract in accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-21 “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables”. In that instance, the entire arrangement would be recognized as the hosting services are being performed.

From time to time, the Company offers future purchase discounts on its products and services as part of its sales arrangements. Pursuant to AICPA TPA 5100.50, such discounts which are incremental to the range of discounts reflected in the pricing of the other elements of the arrangement, which are incremental to the range of discounts typically given in comparable transactions, and which are significant, are treated as an additional element of the contract to be deferred. Amounts deferred related to future purchase options are not recognized until either the customer exercises the discount offer or the offer expires.

Revenue cycle management service revenue is derived from services fees, which include amounts charged for ongoing billing and other related services, and are generally billed to the customer as a percentage of total collections. The Company does not recognize revenue for services fees until these collections are made, as the services fees are not fixed and determinable until such time.

Revenue is divided into two categories, “system sales” and “maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services”. Revenue in the system sales category includes software license fees, third party hardware and software, and implementation and training services related to purchase of the Company’s software systems. The majority of the revenue in the system sales category is related to the sale of software. Revenue in the maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services category includes maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management services, follow on training and implementation services, annual third party license fees, hosting services and other revenue.

Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents generally consist of cash, money market funds and short-term U.S. Treasury securities with original maturities of less than 90 days. The money market fund in which the Company holds a portion of its cash invests in only investment grade money market instruments from a variety of industries, and therefore bears relatively low market risk. The average maturity of the investments owned by the money market fund is approximately two months.

Restricted cash. Restricted cash consists of cash which is being held by HSI acting as agent for the disbursement of certain state social services programs. The Company records an offsetting “Care Services liability” (see also Note 5) when it initially receives such cash from the government social service programs and relieves both restricted cash and the Care Services liability when amounts are disbursed. HSI earns an administrative fee which is based on a percentage of funds disbursed on behalf of certain government social service programs.

Marketable securities. Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and accordingly are recorded at fair value, based on quoted market rates or valuation analysis when appropriate, with unrealized gains and losses reflected as a separate component of shareholders’ equity titled accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, until realized or until a determination is made that an other-than-temporary decline in market value has occurred. Factors considered in assessing whether an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred include: the nature of the investment; whether the decline in fair value is attributable to specific adverse conditions affecting the investment; the financial condition of the investee; the severity and the duration of the impairment; and whether the Company has the ability to hold the investment to maturity. If it is determined that an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, the investment is written down to its market value at the end of the period in which it is determined that an other-than-temporary decline has occurred. In addition, the Company classifies marketable securities as current or non-current based upon whether such assets are reasonably expected to be realized in cash or sold or consumed during the normal operating cycle of the business.

The Company’s investments at September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008 are in tax exempt municipal Auction Rate Securities (ARS) which are classified as either current or non-current marketable securities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, depending on the liquidity and timing of expected realization of such securities. A small portion of the Company’s portfolio is invested in closed-end funds which invest in tax exempt municipal auction rate securities. These instruments are known as Auction Rate Preferred Securities (ARPS). The ARS are rated by one or more national rating agencies and have contractual terms of up to 30 years, but generally have interest rate reset dates that occur every 7, 28 or 35 days. Despite the underlying long-term maturity of ARS, such securities were priced and subsequently traded as short-term investments because of the interest rate reset feature. If there are insufficient buyers, the auction is said to “fail” and the holders are unable to liquidate the investments through auction. A failed auction does not result in a default of the debt instrument. The securities will continue to accrue interest and be auctioned until the auction succeeds, the issuer calls the securities or the securities mature.

7

In February 2008, the Company began to experience failed auctions on its ARS and ARPS. To determine their estimated fair values at September 30, 2008, factors including credit quality, assumptions about the likelihood of redemption, observable market data such as yields or spreads of fixed rate municipal bonds or other trading instruments issued by the same or comparable issuers were considered. Based on this analysis, a temporary impairment loss of $798, net of income tax benefit, which represents the approximate midpoint between various impairment values based on the analysis above, was recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2008. If the Company sells any of the ARS or ARPS, prior to maturity, at an amount below original purchase value, or if it becomes probable that the Company will not receive 100% of the principal and interest from the issuer of any ARS or ARPS, the Company will be required to recognize an other-than-temporary impairment charge against net income.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The Company provides credit terms typically ranging from thirty days to less than twelve months for most system and maintenance contract sales and generally does not require collateral. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers and maintains reserves for estimated credit losses. Reserves for potential credit losses are determined by establishing both specific and general reserves. Specific reserves are based on management’s estimate of the probability of collection for certain troubled accounts. General reserves are established based on the Company’s historical experience of bad debt expense and the aging of the Company’s accounts receivable balances net of deferred revenues and specifically reserved accounts. Accounts are written off as uncollectible only after the Company has expended extensive collection efforts.

Included in accounts receivable are amounts related to maintenance and services which were billed, but which had not yet been rendered as of the end of the period. Undelivered maintenance and services are included on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets in deferred revenue (see also Note 5).

Inventories. Inventories consist of hardware for specific customer orders and spare parts, and are valued at lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Management provides a reserve to reduce inventory to its net realizable value.

Equipment and Improvements. Equipment and improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of equipment and improvements are provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets, or the related lease terms if shorter, by the straight-line method. Useful lives range as follows:

§	Computers and electronic test equipment	3-5 years
§	Furniture and fixtures	5-7 years
§	Leasehold improvements	lesser of lease term or estimated useful life of asset

Software Development Costs. Development costs incurred in the research and development of new software products and enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established. After technological feasibility is established, any additional development costs are capitalized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed” (SFAS 86). Such capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic life of the related product of three years. The Company provides support services on the current and prior two versions of its software. Management performs an annual review of the estimated economic life and the recoverability of such capitalized software costs. If a determination is made that capitalized amounts are not recoverable based on the estimated cash flows to be generated from the applicable software, any remaining capitalized amounts are written off.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets. The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS 142). Goodwill is related to the NextGen Division and the HSI acquisition, which closed on May 20, 2008 (see also Note 6). Under SFAS 142, management is required to perform an annual assessment of the implied fair value of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment. Relating to NextGen Division’s goodwill, the Company compared the fair value of the NextGen Division with the carrying amount of its assets and determined that none of the goodwill recorded was impaired as of June 30, 2008 (the date of the Company’s last annual impairment test). The fair value of the NextGen Division was determined using an estimate of future cash flows for the NextGen Division over ten years and risk adjusted discount rates of between 15 and 25 percent to compute a net present value of future cash flows. The Company will perform its impairment test on HSI as of June 30, 2009 or earlier if deemed necessary.

Long-Lived Assets. The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (SFAS 144). Management periodically reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets, including identifiable

8

intangible assets with definite lives, to determine whether or not impairment to such value has occurred and has determined that there was no impairment at September 30, 2008.

Income Taxes. Income taxes are provided based on current taxable income and the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred income tax assets and liabilities represent the future state and federal tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred income taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income and tax credits that are available to offset future income taxes. At each reporting period, management assesses the realizable value of deferred tax assets based on, among other things, estimates of future taxable income, and adjusts the related valuation allowance as necessary. In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of SFAS No. 109.” FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in an enterprise’s tax return. Management makes a number of assumptions and estimates in determining the appropriate amount of expense to record for income taxes. These assumptions and estimates consider the taxing jurisdiction in which the Company operates as well as current tax regulations. Accruals are established for estimates of tax effects for certain transactions and future projected profitability of the Company’s businesses based on management’s interpretation of existing facts and circumstances. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective April 1, 2007. See Note 11.

Share-Based Compensation

Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R), requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. Expected term is estimated using historical exercise experience. Volatility is estimated by using the weighted average historical volatility of our common stock, which approximates expected volatility. The risk free rate is the implied yield available on the U.S Treasury zero-coupon issues with remaining terms equal to the expected term. The expected dividend yield is the average dividend rate during a period equal to the expected term of the option. Those inputs are then entered into the Black Scholes model to determine the estimated fair value. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized ratably as expense over the requisite service period in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table shows total stock-based employee compensation expense included in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	September 30, 2008			September 30, 2007			September 30, 2008			September 30, 2007

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2008 the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When The Market for That Asset Is Not Active”, or FSP 157-3, to clarify the application of the provisions of SFAS 157 in an inactive market and how an entity would determine fair value in an inactive market. FSP 157-3 is effective immediately and applies to the Company’s September 30, 2008 consolidated financial statements.

9

In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP Emerging Issue Task Force (“EITF”) 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities”. FSP EITF 03-6-1 concluded that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) pursuant to the two-class method. This FSP becomes effective on April 1, 2009. Early adoption of the FSP is not permitted; however, it will apply retrospectively to EPS data for all periods presented in the financial statements or in financial data. The company does not currently anticipate that this FSP will have a material impact on our EPS data in fiscal year 2010 or on EPS for any prior periods presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (SFAS 162).SFAS 162 defines the order in which accounting principles that are generally accepted should be followed. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 162 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB finalized Staff Position (FSP) 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”. The position amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142. The position applies to intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets and both intangible assets acquired in business combinations and asset acquisitions. FSP 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of FSP 142-3 on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (Revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements of the original pronouncement requiring that the purchase method be used for all business combinations. SFAS 141(R) defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination, establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control and requires the acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest at their fair values as of the acquisition date. In addition, SFAS 141(R) requires expensing of acquisition-related and restructure-related costs, remeasurement of earn out provisions at fair value, measurement of equity securities issued for purchase at the date of close of the transaction and non-expensing of in-process research and development related intangibles. SFAS 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. An entity may not apply it before that date. This pronouncement will be applied by the Company when it becomes effective and when or if the Company effectuates a business combination post adoption, otherwise there is no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4. Fair Value Measurement

Effective April 1, 2008, the Company implemented the requirements of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157) for its financial assets and liabilities. SFAS 157 refines the definition of fair value, expands disclosure requirements about fair value measurements and establishes specific requirements as well as guidelines for a consistent framework to measure fair value. SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. Further, SFAS 157 requires the Company to maximize the use of observable market inputs, minimize the use of unobservable market inputs and disclose in the form of an outlined hierarchy the details of such fair value measurements. SFAS 157 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to a fair value measurement are considered to be observable or unobservable in a marketplace. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets in inactive markets; and

10

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in estimating the value of the asset.

The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

On February 12, 2008, the FASB amended the implementation of SFAS 157 related to non-financial assets and liabilities until fiscal periods beginning after November 15, 2008. As a result, the Company has not applied the above fair value procedures to its goodwill and long-lived asset impairment analyses during the current period. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS 157 for non-financial assets and liabilities will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with SFAS 157 as of September 30, 2008:

	Balance as of September 30, 2008		Quoted Prices in Active Markets For Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	67,880	$	67,880	$	—	$	—
Restricted cash		2,002		2,002		—		—
Marketable securities(1)		12,702		—		—		12,702
	$	82,584	$	69,882	$	—	$	12,702

(1) Marketable securities consist of ARS.

The fair value of the Company’s ARS has been estimated by management based on its assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset in a current transaction, or level 3 - unobservable inputs in accordance with SFAS 157, and represents $12,702 or 15.4% of total financial assets measured at fair value in accordance with SFAS 157. Management used a model to estimate the fair value of these securities that included certain level 2 inputs as well as assumptions, including a liquidity discount, based on management’s judgment, which are highly subjective and therefore considered level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. The estimate of the fair value of the ARS could change based on market conditions. For additional information on cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash or marketable securities, see Note 2.

The following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as defined by SFAS 157 at September 30, 2008:

	Investment in Marketable Securities
Balance at March 31, 2008	$	22,624
Transfers to/out of Level 3		—
Proceeds from sale		(8,600	)
Unrealized losses recorded to other comprehensive income, before income tax benefit		(1,322	)

6. Business Combinations

On May 16, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Lackland Acquisition II, LLC dba Healthcare Strategic Initiatives (HSI), a full-service healthcare revenue management company. The acquisition was made under the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger resulting in HSI becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of QSI. The closing of the HSI acquisition occurred on May 20, 2008. HSI’s results of operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition.

The purchase price totaled approximately $15,571 plus up to approximately $1,650 in incentives tied to future performance. The purchase price consisted of approximately equal parts of cash and restricted QSI common stock, subject to restrictions on resale lapsing over a two year period, and transaction related costs. The value of the 232,081 shares of common stock issued was determined based on a formula which took the average of the closing price of QSI’s common shares during the 45 day trading period ending on May 19, 2008. The total purchase price for HSI is as follows:

Cash	$	8,000
Common stock		7,350
Direct transaction costs		221
Total purchase price	$	15,571

The acquisition of HSI is accounted for as a purchase business combination as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141). Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price was allocated to HSI’s tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of May 20, 2008. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed represent management’s estimate of fair value. The Company is amortizing the customer relationships intangible asset over six years and the trade name over four years. The $10,819 assigned to goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. See Note 6 and 7 for a discussion of goodwill and intangibles acquired. As stated above, the Company has agreed to pay additional consideration in future periods, based upon the attainment by the acquired entity of defined operating objectives. In accordance with SFAS 141, the Company does not accrue contingent consideration obligations prior to attainment of these objectives. At September 30, 2008, the maximum potential future consideration pursuant to such arrangements, to be resolved over the following two years, is $1,650. Any such payments would result in increases in goodwill.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price:

Current assets (including restricted cash of $1,470 and accounts receivable of $2,176)	$	3,808
Equipment and improvements and other long-term assets		342
Total tangible assets acquired		4,150
Customer relationships		5,241
Trade name		379
Goodwill		10,819
Current liabilties, including long-term debt due within one year		(4,369	)
Long-term debt		(649	)
Net assets acquired	$	15,571

The pro forma effects of this acquisition would not have been material to our results of

13

operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008 or 2007 and therefore are not presented.

10. Employee Stock Option Plans

In September 1998, the Company’s shareholders approved a stock option plan (the “1998 Plan”) under which 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock were reserved for the issuance of options. The 1998 Plan provides that employees, directors and consultants of the Company, at the discretion of the Board of Directors or a duly designated compensation committee, be granted options to purchase shares of Common Stock. The exercise price of each option granted shall be determined by the Board of Directors at the date of grant, and options under the 1998 Plan expire no later than ten years from the grant date. Options granted will generally become exercisable in accordance with the terms of the agreement pursuant to which they were granted. Certain option grants to directors became exercisable three months from the date of grant. Upon an acquisition of the Company by merger or asset sale, each outstanding option may be subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances. The 1998 Plan terminated on December 31, 2007. As of September 30, 2008, there were 584,091 outstanding options related to this Plan.

In October 2005, the Company’s shareholders approved a stock option and incentive plan (the “2005 Plan”) under which 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for the issuance of awards, including stock options, incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units (including performance options) and other share-based awards. The 2005 Plan provides that employees, directors and consultants of the Company, at the discretion of the Board of Directors or a duly designated compensation committee, be granted awards to purchase shares of Common Stock. The exercise price of each award granted shall be determined by the Board of Directors at the date of grant in accordance with the terms of the 2005 Plan, and under the 2005 Plan awards expire no later than ten years from the grant date. Options granted will generally become exercisable in accordance with the terms of the agreement pursuant to which they were granted. Upon an acquisition of the Company by merger or asset sale, each outstanding award may be subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances. The 2005 Plan terminates on May 25, 2015, unless sooner terminated by the Board. At September 30, 2008, 956,810 shares were available for future grant under the 2005 Plan. As of September 30, 2008, there were 243,190 outstanding options related to this Plan.

A summary of stock option transactions during the six months ended September 30, 2008 is as follows:

15

	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Outstanding, April 1, 2008	1,303,734		$	22.81	3.40
Granted	218,190		$	37.42	4.80
Exercised	(609,743	)	$	17.71	2.25	$	14,969
Forfeited/Canceled	(84,900	)	$	25.93	3.44
Outstanding, September 30, 2008	827,281		$	30.10	3.91	$	10,199
Vested and expected to vest, September 30, 2008	816,254		$	30.07	3.90	$	10,087

The Company continues to utilize the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of stock-based compensation after the adoption of SFAS 123R. The following assumptions were utilized for options granted during the period:

	Six Months Ended
	September 30, 2008	September 30, 2007
Expected life	4.01 years	3.75 years
Expected volatility	42.0% - 43.4%	43.17% - 44.81%
Expected dividends	2.9% - 3.5%	2.67% - 2.99%
Risk-free rate	3.0% - 3.4%	4.06% - 5.09%

During the six months ended September 30, 2008, 218,190 options were granted under the 2005 Plan. During the six months ended September 30, 2007, 159,500 options were granted under the 1998 Plan. The Company issues new shares to satisfy option exercises. Based on historical experience of option cancellations, the Company has estimated an annualized forfeiture rate of 2.0% for employee options and 0.0% for director options. Forfeiture rates will be adjusted over the requisite service period when actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from the estimate. The weighted average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $10.76 per share and $12.86 per share, respectively.

On September 9, 2008, the Board of Directors granted a total of 35,000 options under the Company’s 2005 Plan to non-management directors pursuant to the Company’s previously announced compensation plan for non-management directors, at an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant ($45.61 per share). The options vest in four equal annual installments beginning September 9, 2009 and expire on August 9, 2015.

On August 18, 2008, the Board of Directors granted a total of 50,000 options under the Company’s 2005 Plan to an employee at an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant ($40.08 per share). The options vest in four equal annual installments beginning August 18, 2009 and expire on August 18, 2013.

On August 11, 2008, the Board of Directors granted a total of 25,000 options under the Company’s 2005 Plan to selected employees at an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant ($40.71 per share). The options vest in four equal annual installments beginning August 11, 2009 and expire on August 11, 2013.

On June 13, 2008, the Board of Directors granted a total of 108,190 options under the Company’s 2005 Plan to selected employees at an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant ($32.79 per share). The options vest in four equal annual installments beginning June 13, 2009 and expire on June 13, 2013.

On May 31, 2008, the Board of Directors approved a performance-based equity incentive program for employees to be awarded options to purchase the Company’s common stock based on meeting certain target increases in earnings per share performance and revenue growth during fiscal year 2009. Under the program, options may also be granted as an incentive to prospective employees to join the Company. If earned, the options shall be issued pursuant to one of the Company’s shareholder approved option plans, have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s shares on the date of grant, a term of five years, vesting in four equal installments commencing one year following the date of grant. The maximum number of options available under the performance-based equity incentive program plan is 285,000, of which 20,000 is reserved for new employees. Based on performance versus established plan targets, $29 related to the performance plan was recorded for the six months ended September 30, 2008.

16

Non-vested stock option award activity, including awards for the six month period ended September 30, 2008, is summarized as follows:

	Non-vested Number of Shares		Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share
Non-vested, April 1, 2008	649,436		$	9.57
Granted	218,190		$	10.76
Vested	(225,772	)	$	7.69
Forfeited/Canceled	(84,900	)	$	10.17
Non-vested, September 30, 2008	556,954		$	10.70

As of September 30, 2008, $5,670 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 4.27 years. This amount does not include the cost of new options that may be granted in future periods or any changes in the Company’s forfeiture percentage. The total fair value of shares vested during the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $1,736 and $1,132, respectively.

11. Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was approximately $12,861 as compared to approximately $10,314 for the year ago period. The effective tax rates for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were 36.3% and 36.1%, respectively. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended September 30, 2008 differ from the combined statutory rates primarily due to the impact of varying state income tax rates, tax-exempt interest income, and the qualified production activities deduction. The effective rate for the six months ended September 30, 2008 increased from the prior year primarily due to the expiration of the Federal research and development tax credit statute which occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 and therefore was not included in the current quarter provision.

Uncertain tax positions

As of September 30, 2008, the Company has provided a liability of $628 for unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters. If recognized, there would be no material impact to the Company’s effective tax rate. The reserve has not materially changed for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.

The Company is under routine examination by two states. The Company does not anticipate that total unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change due to the settlement of audits or the expiration of statute of limitations within the next twelve months. The Company has filed three applications to change tax accounting methods. It is reasonably possible that the Company will receive consent to change these accounting methods within the next twelve months which would reduce the unrecognized tax benefit balance as of September 30, 2008 by approximately $561 with no impact on the tax provision.

12. Net Income Per Share

The following table reconciles the weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net income per share for the periods indicated. Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share is based on the assumption that the Company’s outstanding options are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, except when their effect would be anti-dilutive. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

The computation of diluted net income per share does not include 394,148 and 328,049 options for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, because their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on net income per share.
The computation of diluted net income per share does not include 245,000 options for the three and six months ended September 30, 2007, because their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on net income per share.
13. Other Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income includes all changes in Shareholders’ Equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The components of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of income tax, consist of unrealized losses on marketable securities of $264 and $798 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. There were no other comprehensive income items for the three and six months ended ended September 30, 2007.

14.    Operating Segment Information

The Company has prepared operating segment information in accordance with SFAS 131 “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” to report components that are evaluated regularly by its chief operating decision maker, or decision making group in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Reportable operating segments include the NextGen Division and the QSI Division.

The two divisions operate largely as stand-alone operations, with each division maintaining its own distinct product lines, product platforms, development, implementation and support teams, sales staffing, and branding. The two divisions share the resources of the Company’s “corporate office” which includes a variety of accounting and other administrative functions. Additionally, there are a small number of clients who are simultaneously utilizing software from each of the Company’s two divisions.

The QSI Division, co-located with the Company’s Corporate Headquarters in Irvine, California, currently focuses on developing, marketing and supporting software suites sold to dental and

18

certain niche medical practices. In addition, the division supports a number of medical clients that utilize the division’s UNIX^a based medical practice management software product. The NextGen Division, with headquarters in Horsham, Pennsylvania, and significant locations in Atlanta, Georgia and St. Louis, Missouri, focuses principally on developing and marketing products and services for medical practices.

The accounting policies of the Company’s operating segments are the same as those described in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, except that the disaggregated financial results of the segments reflect allocation of certain functional expense categories consistent with the basis and manner in which Company management internally disaggregates financial information for the purpose of assisting in making internal operating decisions. Certain corporate overhead costs, such as executive and accounting department personnel-related expenses, are not allocated to the individual segments by management. Management evaluates performance based on stand-alone segment operating income. Because the Company does not evaluate performance based on return on assets at the operating segment level, assets are not tracked internally by segment. Therefore, segment asset information is not presented. All of the recorded goodwill at September 30, 2008 relates to the Company’s NextGen division.

Operating segment data is as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,						Six Months Ended September 30,

15.     Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company had cash deposits at U.S. banks and financial institutions which exceeded federally insured limits at September 30, 2008. The Company is exposed to credit loss for amounts in excess of insured limits in the event of non-performance by the institutions; however, the Company does not anticipate non-performance by these institutions.

16.     Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies

Commitments and Guarantees

Software license agreements in both the QSI and NextGen Divisions include a performance guarantee that the Company’s software products will substantially operate as described in the applicable program documentation for a period of 365 days after delivery. To date, the Company has not incurred any significant costs associated with these warranties and does not expect to incur significant warranty costs in the future. Therefore, no accrual has been made for potential costs associated with these warranties. Certain arrangements also include performance guarantees related to response time, availability for operational use, and other performance-related guarantees. Certain arrangements also include penalties in the form of maintenance credits should the performance of the software fail to meet the performance guarantees. To date, the Company has not incurred any significant costs associated with these warranties and does not expect to incur significant warranty costs in the future. Therefore, no accrual has been made for potential costs associated with these warranties.

The Company has historically offered short-term rights of return in certain sales arrangements. If the Company is able to estimate returns for these types of arrangements and all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met, revenue is recognized and these arrangements are recorded in the consolidated financial statements. If the Company is unable to estimate returns for these types of arrangements, revenue is not recognized in the

^a       UNIX is a registered trademark of the AT&T Corporation.

19

consolidated financial statements until the rights of return expire, provided also, that all other criteria of revenue recognition have been met.

The Company’s standard sales agreements in the NextGen Division contain an indemnification provision pursuant to which it shall indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party in connection with any United States patent, any copyright or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect to its software. The QSI Division arrangements occasionally utilize this type of language as well. As the Company has not incurred any significant costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements, the Company believes that its estimated exposure on these agreements is currently minimal. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these indemnification obligations.

From time to time, the Company offers future purchase discounts on its products and services as part of its sales arrangements. Discounts which are incremental to the range of discounts reflected in the pricing of the other elements of the arrangement, which are incremental to the range of discounts typically given in comparable transactions, and which are significant, are treated as an additional element of the contract to be deferred. Amounts deferred related to future purchase options are not recognized until either the customer exercises the discount offer or the offer expires.

The Company has entered into marketing assistance agreements with existing users of the Company’s products which provide the opportunity for those users to earn commissions if and only if they host specific site visits upon the Company’s request for prospective customers which directly result in a purchase of the Company’s software by the visiting prospects. Amounts earned by existing users under this program are treated as a selling expense in the period when earned.

Contingencies

The Company has experienced certain legal claims by parties asserting that it infringed certain intellectual property rights. Management believes that these claims are without merit and have defended against them vigorously; however, in order to avoid the further legal costs and diversion of management resources it is reasonably possible that a settlement may be reached which could result in a liability to the Company. However, at this time it is not possible to estimate with reasonable certainty what amount, if any may be incurred as a result of a settlement. Litigation is inherently uncertain and always difficult to predict.

17.     Subsequent Events

On October 30, 2008, the Board of Directors approved a regular quarterly dividend of thirty cents ($0.30) per share payable on its outstanding shares of common stock. The cash dividend record date is December 15, 2008 and the cash dividend is expected to be distributed to shareholders on or about January 5, 2009.

On October 15, 2008, the Company and NextGen entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Agreement) to acquire Practice Management Partners, Inc. (PMP), which closed on October 28, 2008. As a result of the Agreement, PMP became a wholly owned subsidiary of NextGen. The purchase price consisted of approximately $19,000 at closing plus up to $3,000 tied to the future performance of PMP. The $19,000 consists of approximately $16,250 in cash and $2,750 in the Company’s unregistered common stock.

Item 2.     Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this quarterly report may include forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ from those anticipated by us as a result of various factors, both foreseen and unforeseen, including, but not limited to, our ability to continue to develop new products and increase systems sales in markets characterized by rapid technological evolution, consolidation, and competition from larger, better capitalized competitors. Many other economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors could impact our ability to achieve our goals, and interested persons are urged to review any new risks which may be described in “Risk Factors” set forth herein and other risk factors appearing in our most recent filing on Form 10-K, as supplemented by additional risk factors, if any, in our interim filings on Form 10-Q, as well as in our other public disclosures and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. Historical results of operations, percentage profit fluctuations and any trends that may be inferred from the discussion below are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future period.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates. The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate estimates, including but not limited to those related to revenue recognition, valuation of marketable securities, uncollectible accounts receivable, intangible assets, software development cost, and income taxes for reasonableness. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe revenue recognition, valuation of marketable securities, the allowance for doubtful accounts, capitalized software costs, share-based compensation, income taxes and intangible assets are among the most critical accounting policies and estimates that impact our consolidated financial statements. We believe that our significant accounting policies, as described in Note 2 of our Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Revenue Recognition. We currently recognize system sales revenue pursuant to SOP 97-2, as amended by SOP 98-9. We generate revenue from the sale of licensing rights to use our software products sold directly to end-users and value-added resellers (VARs). We also generate revenue from sales of hardware and third party software, and implementation, training, software customization, EDI, post-contract support (maintenance) and other services performed for customers who license our products.

A typical system contract contains multiple elements of the above items. SOP 97-2, as amended, requires revenue earned on software arrangements involving multiple elements to be allocated to each element based on the relative fair values of those elements. The fair value of an element must be based on vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE). We limit our assessment of VSOE for each element to either the price charged when the same element is sold separately or the price established by management having the relevant authority to do so, for an element not yet sold separately. VSOE calculations are updated and reviewed at the end of each quarter or annually depending on the nature of the product or service.

When evidence of fair value exists for the delivered and undelivered elements of a transaction, then discounts for individual elements are aggregated and the total discount is allocated to the individual elements in proportion to the elements’ fair value relative to the total contract fair value.

When evidence of fair value exists for the undelivered elements only, the residual method, provided for under SOP 98-9, is used. Under the residual method, we defer revenue related to the undelivered elements in a system sale based on VSOE of fair value of each of the undelivered elements, and allocate the remainder of the contract price net of all discounts to revenue recognized from the delivered elements. Undelivered elements of a system sale may include implementation and training services, hardware and third party software, maintenance, future purchase discounts, or other services. If VSOE of fair value of any undelivered element does not exist, all revenue is deferred until VSOE of fair value of the undelivered element is established or the element has been delivered.

We bill for the entire system sales contract amount upon contract execution except for maintenance which is billed separately. Amounts billed in excess of the amounts contractually due are recorded in accounts receivable as advance billings. Amounts are contractually due when services are performed or in accordance with contractually specified payment dates. Provided the fees are fixed and determinable and collection is considered probable, revenue from licensing rights and sales of hardware and third party software is generally recognized upon shipment and transfer of title. In certain transactions whose collections risk is high, the cash basis method is used to recognize revenue. If the fee is not fixed or determinable, then the revenue recognized in each period (subject to application of other revenue recognition criteria) will be the lesser of the aggregate of amounts due and payable or the amount of the arrangement fee that would have been recognized if the fees were being recognized using the residual method. Fees which are considered fixed or determinable at the inception of our arrangements must include the following characteristics:

§ The fee must be negotiated at the outset of an arrangement, and generally be based on the specific volume of products to be delivered without being subject to change based on variable pricing mechanisms such as the number of units copied or distributed or the expected number of users.

21

§ Payment terms must not be considered extended. If a significant portion of the fee is due more than 12 months after delivery or after the expiration of the license, the fee is presumed not fixed and determinable.

Revenue from implementation and training services is recognized as the corresponding services are performed. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the contractual maintenance period.

Contract accounting is applied where services include significant software modification, development or customization. In such instances, the arrangement fee is accounted for in accordance with Statement of Position No. 81-1 “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts” (SOP 81-1).

Pursuant to SOP 81-1, we use the percentage of completion method provided all of the following conditions exist:

• The contract includes provisions that clearly specify the enforceable rights regarding goods or services to be provided and received by the parties, the consideration to be exchanged, and the manner and terms of settlement;

• The customer can be expected to satisfy its obligations under the contract;

• We can be expected to perform our contractual obligations; and

• Reliable estimates of progress towards completion can be made.

We measure completion using labor input hours. Costs of providing services, including services accounted for in accordance with SOP 81-1, are expensed as incurred.

If a situation occurs in which a contract is so short term that the consolidated financial statements would not vary materially from using the percentage-of-completion method or in which we are unable to make reliable estimates of progress of completion of the contract, the completed contract method is utilized.

Product returns are estimated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 48, “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists” (SFAS 48). The Company also ensures that the other criteria in SFAS 48 have been met prior to recognition of revenue:

§	The price is fixed or determinable;
§	The customer is obligated to pay and there are no contingencies surrounding the obligation or the payment;
§	The customer’s obligation would not change in the event of theft or damage to the product;
§	The customer has economic substance;
§	The amount of returns can be reasonably estimated; and
§	We do not have significant obligations for future performance in order to bring about resale of the product by the customer.

We have historically offered short-term rights of return of less than 30 days in certain sales arrangements. If we are able to estimate returns for these types of arrangements, revenue is recognized and these arrangements are recorded in the consolidated financial statements. If we are unable to estimate returns for these types of arrangements, revenue is not recognized in our consolidated financial statements until the rights of return expire.

Revenue related to sales arrangements which include the right to use software stored on the Company’s hardware are accounted for under the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-3 “Application of AICPA Statement of Position 97-2 to arrangements that include the right to use software stored on another entity’s hardware”. EITF No. 00-3 requires that for software licenses and related implementation services to continue to fall under SOP No. 97-2, the customer must have the contractual right to take possession of the software without incurring a significant penalty and it must be feasible for the customer to either host the software themselves or through another third party. If an arrangement is not deemed to be accounted for under SOP 97-2, the entire arrangement is accounted for as a service contract in accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-21 “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables”. In that instance, the entire arrangement would be recognized as the hosting services are being performed.

Revenue cycle management service revenue is derived from services fees, which include amounts charged for ongoing billing and other related services and are generally billed to the customer as a percentage of total collections. The Company does not recognize revenue for services fees until these collections are made as the services fees are not fixed and determinable until such time.

22

From time to time, we offer future purchase discounts on our products and services as part of our sales arrangements. Pursuant to AICPA TPA 5100.51, discounts which are incremental to the range of discounts reflected in the pricing of the other elements of the arrangement, which are incremental to the range of discounts typically given in comparable transactions, and which are significant, are treated as an additional element of the contract to be deferred. Amounts deferred related to future purchase options are not recognized until either the customer exercises the discount offer or the offer expires.

Revenue is divided into two categories, “system sales” and “maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services”. Revenue in the system sales category includes software license fees, third party hardware and software, and implementation and training services related to purchase of the Company’s software systems. The majority of the revenue in the system sales category is related to the sale of software. Revenue in the maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services category includes, maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management, follow on training and implementation services, annual third party license fees, hosting services and other revenue.

Valuation of marketable securities. Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and accordingly are recorded at fair value, based on quoted market rates or on valuation analysis when appropriate, with unrealized gains and losses reflected as a separate component of shareholders’ equity titled accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, until realized or until a determination is made that an other-than-temporary decline in market value has occurred. Factors considered in assessing whether an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred include: the nature of the investment; whether the decline in fair value is attributable to specific adverse conditions affecting the investment; the financial condition of the investee; the severity and the duration of the impairment; and whether the Company has the ability to hold the investment to maturity. When it is determined that an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, the investment is written down to its market value at the end of the period in which it is determined that an other-than-temporary decline has occurred. The cost of marketable securities sold is based upon the specific identification method. In addition, the Company classifies marketable securities as current or non-current based upon whether such assets are reasonably expected to be realized in cash or sold or consumed during the normal operating cycle of the business. Realized gains or losses and other-than-temporary declines in the fair value of marketable securities are determined on a specific identification basis and reported in interest and other income, net, as incurred.

The fair value of our marketable securities has been estimated by management based on certain assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset in a current transaction, or level 3 - unobservable inputs in accordance with SFAS 157. Management used a model to estimate the fair value of these securities that included certain level 2 inputs as well as assumptions, including a liquidity discount, based on management’s judgment, which are highly subjective and therefore considered level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. The estimate of the fair value of the marketable securities could change based on market conditions.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We perform credit evaluations of our customers and maintain reserves for estimated credit losses. Reserves for potential credit losses are determined by establishing both specific and general reserves. Specific reserves are based on management’s estimate of the probability of collection for certain troubled accounts. General reserves are established based on our historical experience of bad debt expense and the aging of our accounts receivable balances net of deferred revenue and specifically reserved accounts. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required.

Software Development Costs. Development costs incurred in the research and development of new software products and enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established. After technological feasibility is established with the completion of a working model of the enhancement or product, any additional development costs are capitalized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed” (SFAS 86). Such capitalized costs are amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated economic life of the related product, which is generally three years. We perform an annual review of the recoverability of such capitalized software costs. At the time a determination is made that capitalized amounts are not recoverable based on the estimated cash flows to be generated from the applicable software, any remaining capitalized amounts are written off.

Share-Based Compensation. We apply the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and

23

directors based on estimated fair values. SFAS 123R requires us to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. During fiscal year 2009, we estimate the expected term of the option using historical exercise experience. Prior to using the simplified method, we estimated the expected term of an option. We estimate volatility by using the weighted average historical volatility of our common stock, which we believe approximates expected volatility. The risk free rate is the implied yield available on the U.S Treasury zero-coupon issues with remaining terms equal to the expected term. The expected dividend yield is the average dividend rate during a period equal to the expected term of the option. Those inputs are then entered into the Black Scholes model to determine the estimated fair value. The value of the portion of the award that is expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service period in our consolidated statement of income.

Qualified Production Activities Deduction. Management’s treatment of this deduction represented an estimate that affected the effective income tax rate for the Company for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. The deduction taken by the Company involved certain assumptions and judgments regarding the allocation of indirect expenses as prescribed under Internal Revenue Code Section 199.

Business Combinations. In accordance with business combination accounting under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations”, we allocate the purchase price of acquired businesses to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values. Such allocations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets acquired. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable. These estimates are based on information obtained from management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets include, but are not limited to, (i) future expected cash flows from acquired businesses and (ii) the acquired company’s brand and market position. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur which may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.

Company Overview

Quality Systems Inc., comprised of the QSI Division (QSI Division) and wholly-owned subsidiaries, NextGen Healthcare Information Systems, Inc. (NextGen Division) and Lackland Acquisition II, LLC dba Healthcare Strategic Initiatives (HSI) (collectively, the Company, we, our, or us) develops and markets healthcare information systems that automate certain aspects of medical and dental practices, networks of practices such as physician hospital organizations (PHO’s) and management service organizations (MSO’s), ambulatory care centers, community health centers, and medical and dental schools.

The Company, a California corporation formed in 1974, was founded with an early focus on providing information systems to dental group practices. In the mid-1980’s, we capitalized on the increasing focus on medical cost containment and further expanded our information processing systems to serve the medical market. In the mid-1990’s we made two acquisitions that accelerated our penetration of the medical market. These two acquisitions formed the basis for what is today the NextGen Division. Today, we serve the medical and dental markets through our two divisions.

The two divisions operate largely as stand-alone operations with each division maintaining its own distinct product lines, product platforms, development, implementation and support teams, sales staffing, and branding. The two divisions share the resources of the “corporate office” which includes a variety of accounting and other administrative functions. Additionally, there are a small number of clients who are simultaneously utilizing software from each of our two divisions.

The QSI Division, co-located with our corporate headquarters in Irvine, California, currently focuses on developing, marketing and supporting software suites sold to dental and certain niche medical practices. In addition, the Division supports a number of medical clients that utilize the Division’s UNIX¹ based medical practice management software product.

The NextGen Division, with headquarters in Horsham, Pennsylvania, and significant locations in Atlanta, Georgia and St. Louis, Missouri, focuses principally on developing and marketing products and services for medical practices.

Both divisions develop and market practice management software which is designed to automate and streamline a number of the administrative functions required for operating a medical or dental practice. Examples of practice management software functions include scheduling and billing capabilities. It is important to note that in both the medical and dental

¹        UNIX is a registered trademark of the AT&T Corporation.

24

environments, practice management software systems have already been implemented by the vast majority of practices. Therefore, we actively compete for the replacement market.

In addition, both divisions develop and market software that automates the patient record. Adoption of this software, commonly referred to as clinical software, is in its relatively early stages. Therefore, we are typically competing to replace paper-based patient record alternatives as opposed to replacing previously purchased systems.

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)/connectivity products are intended to automate a number of manual, often paper-based or telephony intensive communications between patients and/or providers and/or payors. Two of the more common EDI services are forwarding insurance claims electronically from providers to payors and assisting practices with issuing statements to patients. Most practices utilize at least some of these services from us or one of our competitors. Other EDI/connectivity services are used more sporadically by client practices. We typically compete to displace incumbent vendors for claims and statements accounts, and attempt to increase usage of other elements in our EDI/connectivity product line. In general, EDI services are only sold to those accounts utilizing software from one of our divisions.

The QSI Division’s practice management software suite utilizes a UNIX operating system. Its Clinical Product Suite (CPS) utilizes a Windows NT² operating system and can be fully integrated with the practice management software from each division. CPS incorporates a wide range of clinical tools including, but not limited to, periodontal charting and digital imaging of X-ray and inter-oral camera images as part of the electronic patient record. The Division develops, markets, and manages our EDI/connectivity applications. The QSInet Application Service Provider (ASP/Internet) offering is also developed and marketed by this Division.

Our NextGen Division develops and sells proprietary electronic medical records software and practice management systems under the NextGen®³ product name. Major product categories of the NextGen suite include Electronic Medical Records (NextGen^emr), Enterprise Practice Management (NextGen^epm), Enterprise Appointment Scheduling (NextGen^eas), Enterprise Master Patient Index (NextGen^epi), NextGen Image Control System (NextGen^ics), Managed Care Server (NextGen^mcs), Electronic Data Interchange, System Interfaces, Internet Operability (NextGen^web), a Patient-centric and Provider-centric Web Portal solution (NextMD⁴.com), NextGen Express, a version of NextGen^emr designed for small practices and NextGen Community Health Solution (NextGen^chs). Beginning in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, the NextGen Division began offering optional NextGen Hosting Solutions to new and existing customers. NextGen also introduced a formal rollout of a new revenue cycle management service in fiscal year 2008. NextGen products utilize Microsoft Windows technology and can operate in a client-server environment as well as via private intranet, the Internet, or in an ASP environment.

We continue to pursue product enhancement initiatives within each division. The majority of such expenditures are currently targeted to the NextGen Division product line and client base.

Inclusive of divisional EDI and revenue cycle management revenue, the NextGen Division accounted for approximately 93.0% of our revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 compared to 91.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. The QSI Division accounted for 7.0% and 8.9% of revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 and 2008, respectively. The NextGen Division’s year over year revenue grew at 33.4% and 22.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 and 2008, respectively, while the QSI Division’s year over year revenue remained unchanged in the second quarter of fiscal years 2009 and 2008, respectively.

In addition to the aforementioned software solutions which we offer through our two divisions, we also offer comprehensive hardware and software installation services, maintenance and support services, revenue cycle management and system training services.

On December 11, 2007, the Company announced the formal public launch of NextGen Practice Solutions, a business division devoted to providing physician practices with cost effective revenue cycle management services. This division combines a web-delivered Software as a Service (SaaS) model and the NextGen EPM software platform to execute its service offerings.

Results of Operations

Overview of results

§	Consolidated revenue grew 31.0% in the six months ended September 30, 2008 versus the same period in 2007 and 18.6% in the six months ended September 30, 2007 versus the same period in 2006. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, revenue was positively impacted by the HSI acquisition, which generated $5.9 million for the period May 21, 2008 to September 30, 2008.
§	Consolidated income from operations grew 27.2% in the six months ended September 30, 2008 versus the same period in 2007 and grew 5.6% in the six months ended September 30, 2007 versus 2006. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, operating income was positively impacted by an increase in revenue offset by shift in revenue mix with increased hardware, maintenance and revenue cycle management revenue resulting in a decline in our gross profit margin; we also experienced higher selling, general and administrative expenses. Higher selling, general and administrative expenses were impacted negatively by $1.2 million of proxy related expenses incurred in conjunction with the 2008 Annual Shareholder’s Meeting and higher than usual legal expenses, primarily as a result of our contested proxy election and certain legal matters related to intellectual property infringement claims in the NextGen division.
§	We have benefited and hope to continue to benefit from the increased demands on healthcare providers for greater efficiency and lower costs, as well as increased adoption rates for electronic medical records and other technology in the healthcare arena.
NextGen Division
§	Our NextGen Division’s revenue grew 33.9% in the six months ended September 30, 2008 versus 2007 and 20.6% in the six months ended September 30, 2007 versus 2006. Divisional operating income (which excludes unallocated corporate expenses) grew 32.7% in the six months ended September 30, 2008 versus 2007 and 7.8% in the six months ended September 30, 2007 versus 2006. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, operating income was positively impacted by our revenue growth.
§	HSI contributed $5.9 million to NextGen’s revenue during from May 20, 2008, the close date, to September 30, 2008. HSI’s operating income had minimal impact to NextGen’s operating income the same period.
§	During the six months ended September 30, 2008, we added staffing resources to most of our client-interfacing departments, and intend to continue doing so in future quarters.
§	Our goals include continuing to further enhance and expand the marketing and sales of our existing products, developing new products for targeted markets, continuing to add new customers, selling additional software and services to existing customers and expanding penetration of connectivity and other services to new and existing customers, and capitalizing on growth and cross selling opportunities within the Practice Solutions arena.
QSI Division
§	Our QSI Division revenue increased 2.4% in the six months ended September 30, 2008 versus the same period in 2007 and grew 1.6% in the six months ended September 30, 2007 versus the same period in 2006. The Division experienced 17.8% decrease in operating income (excluding unallocated corporate expenses) in the six months ended September 30, 2008 versus the same period in 2007 as compared to a 8.0% increase in operating income in the six months ended September 30, 2007 versus the same period in 2006. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, operating income was negatively impacted by an increase in selling, general and administrative expense.
§	Our goals for the QSI Division include maximizing profit performance given the constraints represented by a relatively weak purchasing environment in the dental group practice market.

For the Three-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2008 versus 2007

Net Income. The Company’s net income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $10.5 million or $0.38 per share on a basic and $0.37 per share on a fully diluted basis. In comparison, we earned $ 9.7 million or $0.35 per share on a basic and fully diluted basis for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in net income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was a result of the following:

• a 30.7% increase in consolidated revenue;

• a 33.9% increase in NextGen Division revenue which accounted for 93.0% of consolidated revenue;

• offset by a shift in revenue mix with increased hardware, maintenance and revenue cycle management revenue resulting in a decline in our gross profit margin; and

• an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue. Approximately $1.2 million in expenses related to the contested proxy election which occurred in conjunction with the 2008 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting.

27

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased 30.7% to $59.0 million from $45.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007. NextGen Division revenue increased 33.4% from $41.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $54.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2008, and the QSI Division revenue increased by 2.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2008 over the prior year period. NextGen revenue is inclusive of approximately $4.2 million in revenue from HSI.

We divide revenue into two categories, “system sales” and “maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services”. Revenue in the system sales category includes software license fees, third party hardware and software, and implementation and training services related to purchase of the Company’s software systems. The majority of the revenue in the system sales category is related to the sale of software. Revenue in the maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services category includes maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management follow-on training and implementation services, annual third party license fees, hosting and other revenue. Maintenance revenue includes amounts initially deferred in conjunction with new customer arrangements and subsequently amortized and billings to existing customers.

System Sales. Revenue earned from company-wide sales of systems for the three months ended September 30, 2008, increased 14.2% to $24.8 million from $21.7 million in the prior year period.

Our increase in revenue from sales of systems was principally the result of a 13.7% increase in category revenue at our NextGen Division. Divisional sales in this category grew from $21.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $23.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2008. This increase was driven by higher sales of NextGen^emr and NextGen^epm software to both new and existing clients, as well as increases in sales of hardware, third party software and supplies and implementation and training services.

The following table breaks down our reported system sales into software, hardware, third party software, supplies, and implementation and training services components by division:

	Software		Hardware, Third Party Software and Supplies		Implementation and Training Services		Total System Sales
Three months ended September 30, 2008
QSI Division	$	235	$	404	$	278	$	917
NextGen Division		18,673		1,985		3,208		23,866
Consolidated	$	18,908	$	2,389	$	3,486	$	24,783
Three months ended September 30, 2007
QSI Division	$	217	$	258	$	225	$	700
NextGen Division		16,713		1,326		2,957		20,996
Consolidated	$	16,930	$	1,584	$	3,182	$	21,696

NextGen Division software license revenue increased 11.7% between the three months ended September 30, 2008 and the prior year period. The Division’s software revenue accounted for 78.2% of divisional system sales revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2008. For the three month period ended September 30, 2007, divisional software revenue as a percentage of divisional system sales revenue was 79.6%. Software license revenue growth continues to be an area of primary emphasis for the NextGen Division.

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, 8.3% of NextGen’s system sales revenue was represented by hardware and third party software compared to 6.3% in the prior year period. During the three months ended September 30, 2008, there was a shift in the revenue mix with increased revenue coming from hardware revenue. The number of customers who purchase hardware and third party software and the dollar amount of hardware and third party software revenue fluctuates each quarter depending on the needs of customers. The inclusion of hardware and third party software in the Division’s sales arrangements is typically at the request of the customer and is not a priority focus for us.

Implementation and training revenue related to system sales at the NextGen Division grew 8.5% in the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2007 and increased 10.5% in the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the period year period 2006. The amount of implementation and training services revenue in any given quarter is dependent on several factors, including timing of customer implementations, the availability of qualified staff, and the mix of services being rendered. The number of

28

implementation and training staff increased during the three months ended September 30, 2008 versus 2007 in order to accommodate the increased amount of implementation services sold in conjunction with increased software sales. In order to achieve growth in this area, additional staffing increases and additional training facilities are anticipated, though actual future increases in revenue and staff will depend upon the availability of qualified staff, business mix and conditions, and our ability to retain current staff members.

The NextGen Division’s growth has come in part from investments in sales and marketing activities including hiring additional sales representatives, trade show attendance, and advertising expenditures. We have also benefited from winning numerous industry awards for the NextGen Division’s flagship NextGen^emr and NextGen^epm software products and the apparent increasing acceptance of electronic medical records technology in the healthcare industry.

For the QSI Division, total system sales increased $0.2 million or 31.0% in the three months ended September 30, 2008 versus the same period ended September 30, 2007. We do not presently foresee any material changes in the business environment for the Division with respect to the weak purchasing environment in the dental group practice market that has existed for the past several years.

Maintenance, EDI, Revenue Cycle Management and Other Services. For the three months ended September 30, 2008, company-wide revenue from maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services grew 45.8% to $34.2 million from $23.5 million in the prior year period. The increase in this category resulted from an increase in maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services revenue from the NextGen Division. Total NextGen Division maintenance revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2008 grew 33.2% to $15.5 million from $11.6 million in the prior year period, while EDI revenue grew 38.7% to $5.9 million compared to $4.2 million during the prior year period. Revenue cycle management grew $4.3 million primarily as a result of the HSI acquisition. Other services revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased 26.0% to $5.1 million from $4.1 million in the prior year period, primarily due to increases in consulting services, annual licenses and hosting services revenue. QSI Division maintenance, EDI and other revenue remained approximately unchanged in the three months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the prior year period

The following table details revenue included in the maintenance, EDI and other category for the three month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

	Maintenance		EDI		Revenue Cycle Management		Other		Total
Three months ended September 30, 2008
QSI Division	$	1,759	$	1,121	$	—	$	316	$	3,196
NextGen Division		15,475		5,864		4,527		5,136		31,002
Consolidated	$	17,234	$	6,985	$	4,527	$	5,452	$	34,198
Three months ended September 30, 2007
QSI Division	$	1,824	$	1,179	$	—	$	303	$	3,306
NextGen Division		11,618		4,227		222		4,077		20,144
Consolidated	$	13,442	$	5,406	$	222	$	4,380	$	23,450

The growth in maintenance revenue for the NextGen Division has come from new customers that have been added each quarter, existing customers who have purchased additional licenses, and our relative success in retaining existing maintenance customers. NextGen’s EDI revenue growth has come from new customers and from further penetration of the Division’s existing customer base. We intend to continue to promote maintenance and EDI services to both new and existing customers.

The following table provides the number of billing sites which were receiving maintenance services as of the last business day of the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 respectively, as well as the number of billing sites receiving EDI services during the last month of each respective period at each division of the Company. The table presents summary information only and includes billing entities added and removed for any reason. Note also that a single client may include one or multiple billing sites, and changes in billing protocols for certain clients can cause period to period changes in the number of billing sites.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased 43.6% to $21.2 million from $14.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and the cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue increased to 36.0% from 32.7% due to the fact that the rate of growth in cost of revenue grew faster than the aggregate revenue growth rate for the Company.

The increase in our consolidated cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue between the three months ended September 30, 2008 and the three months ended September 30, 2007 is primarily attributable to an increase in the level of hardware and third party software in the NextGen division, increase in payroll and related benefits and EDI costs in both divisions, offset by a decrease in other expense as a percentage of revenue. Other expense, which consists of outside service costs, amortization of software development costs and other costs, decreased to 7.0% of total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2008 from 9.8% of total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2007.

The following table details the individual components of cost of revenue and gross profit as a percentage of total revenue for our Company and our two divisions.

	Hardware, Third Party Software			Payroll and related Benefits			EDI			Other			Total Cost of Revenue			Gross Profit
Three months ended September 30, 2008
QSI Division		9.2	%		19.2	%		16.3	%		2.6	%		47.3	%		52.7	%
NextGen Division		4.5	%		14.5	%		8.7	%		7.4	%		35.1	%		64.9	%
Consolidated		4.8	%		14.9	%		9.3	%		7.0	%		36.0	%		64.0	%
Three months ended September 30, 2007
QSI Division		4.0	%		18.6	%		14.9	%		4.4	%		41.9	%		58.1	%
NextGen Division		3.2	%		11.0	%		7.3	%		10.3	%		31.8	%		68.2	%
Consolidated		3.3	%		11.7	%		8.0	%		9.8	%		32.8	%		67.3	%

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, hardware and third party software constituted a larger portion of consolidated cost of revenue compared to the prior year period in the NextGen Division. The number of customers who purchase hardware and third party software and the dollar amount of hardware and third party software purchased fluctuates each quarter depending on the needs of the customers and is not a priority focus for us.

Our payroll and benefits expense associated with delivering our products and services increased to 14.9% of consolidated revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to 11.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2007 primarily due to the acquisition of HSI which as a service business has an inherently higher percentage of payroll costs as a percentage of revenue. The absolute level of consolidated payroll and benefit expenses grew from $5.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $8.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of 67% or approximately $3.5 million. Of the $3.5 million increase, approximately $2.0 million was a result of the HSI acquisition. In addition, related headcount, payroll and benefits expense associated with delivering products and services in the NextGen Division increased to $8.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2008 from $4.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007. Payroll and benefits expense associated with delivering products and services in the QSI Division increased to $0.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2008 from $0.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007. The application of SFAS 123R added approximately $0.1 million in compensation expense to cost of revenue for both the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

We anticipate continued additions to headcount in the NextGen Division in areas related to delivering products and services in future periods but due to the uncertainties in the timing of our sales arrangements, our sales mix, the acquisition and training of qualified personnel,

30

and other issues, we cannot accurately predict if related headcount expense as a percentage of revenue will increase or decrease in the future.

We do not currently intend to make any significant additions to related headcount at the QSI Division.

As a result of the foregoing events and activities, the gross profit percentage for the Company and both our divisions decreased for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 versus the prior year period.

The following table details revenue and cost of revenue on a consolidated and divisional basis for the three month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

	Three months ended September 30,
	2008		%			2007		%
QSI Division
Revenue	$	4,113		100.0	%	$	4,006		100.0	%
Cost of revenue		1,946		47.3	%		1,680		41.9	%
Gross profit	$	2,167		52.7	%	$	2,326		58.1	%
NextGen Division

Gross profit	$	37,758		64.0	%	$	30,371		67.3	%

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased 38.6% to $18.3 million as compared to $13.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in these expenses resulted from a $0.2 million increase in compensation expense in the NextGen Division, a $1.0 million increase in legal expenses in the NextGen Division, a $2.3 million in other general and administrative expenses in the NextGen Division and a $1.6 million increase in corporate related expenses. Approximately $1.2 million of the year over year corporate related expense was related to expenses associated with the contested proxy election which occurred in conjunction with the 2008 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting. The application of SFAS 123R added approximately $0.3 million and $0.6 million in compensation expense to selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and is included in the aforementioned amounts. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased from 29.2% in the three months ended September 30, 2007 to 31.0% in the three months ended September 30, 2008, primarily due to the proxy and legal expenses mentioned above.

We anticipate increased expenditures for trade shows, advertising and the employment of additional sales and administrative staff at the NextGen Division. We also anticipate future increases in corporate expenditures being made in a wide range of areas including professional services. While we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase on an absolute basis, we cannot accurately predict the impact these additional expenditures will have on selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue.

Research and Development Costs. Research and development costs for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were $3.3 million and $ 2.7 million, respectively. The increases in research and development expenses were due in part to increased investment in the NextGen product line. Additionally, the application of SFAS 123R added approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million in compensation expense to research and development costs for both the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Additions to capitalized software costs offset research and development costs. For the three months ended September 30, 2008, $1.5 million was added to capitalized software costs while $1.6 million was capitalized during the three months ended September 30, 2007. Research and development costs as a percentage of revenue decreased to 5.7% during the three months ended June 30, 2008 from 6.0% for the same period in 2007. Research and development expenses are expected to continue at or above current dollar levels.

Interest Income. Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 decreased to $0.3 million compared to $0.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007 primarily

31

due a greater proportion of funds invested in short-term U.S Treasuries and money market accounts which earned lower interest rates as compared to the prior year.

Our investment policy is determined by our Board of Directors. We currently maintain our cash in very liquid short term assets including money market funds, short-term U.S. Treasuries and auction rate securities with maturities or interest reset dates of 35 days or less. We owned approximately $12.7 million in ARS as of September 30 2008, which are illiquid due to the failure in the ARS market. Our Board of Directors continues to review alternate uses for our cash including, but not limited to, payment of a special dividend, initiation of a stock buy back program, an expansion of our investment policy to include investments with longer maturities of greater than 90 days, or other items. Additionally, it is possible that we will utilize some or all of our cash to fund  acquisitions or other similar business activities. Any or all of these programs could significantly impact our investment income in future periods.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was approximately $6.0 million as compared to approximately $5.5 million for the year ago period. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was 36.3% and for the three months ended September 30 2007 was 36.1%. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was impacted by the expiration of the Federal research and development tax credit statute which occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 and not extended until October 3, 2008, so therefore was not included in the current quarter provision.

For the Six-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2008 versus 2007

Net Income. The Company’s net income for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was $21.6 million or $0.78 per share on a basic and $0.77 per share on a fully diluted basis. In comparison, we earned $17.6 million or $0.65 per share on a basic and fully diluted basis for the six months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in net income for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was a result of the following:

• a 31.0% increase in consolidated revenue;

• a 33.9% increase in NextGen Division revenue which accounted for 92.8% of consolidated revenue;

• offset by a decrease in gross margin percentage due to a shift in revenue mix with increased hardware, maintenance and revenue cycle management revenue resulting in a decline in our gross profit margin; and

• Higher selling, general and administrative expenses were impacted negatively by $1.2 million of proxy related expenses incurred in conjunction with the 2008 Annual Shareholder’s Meeting and higher than usual legal expenses.

• a decrease in interest income for the six months ended September 30, 2008 due to a greater proportion of funds invested in tax favored auction rate securities which offer lower interest rates but higher after-tax yields compared to money market or short term U.S. Treasuries, as well as well as lower overall interest rates.

Revenue. Revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2008 increased 31.0% to $114.2 million from $87.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2007. NextGen Division revenue increased 33.9% from $79.2 million in the six months ended September 30, 2007 to $106.0 million in the six months ended September 30, 2008, and the QSI Division revenue increased by 2.4% during the six months ended September 30, 2008 over the prior year period. NextGen revenue is inclusive of approximately $5.9 million in revenue from HSI.

We divide revenue into two categories, “system sales” and “maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services”. Revenue in the system sales category includes software license fees, third party hardware and software, and implementation and training services related to purchase of the Company’s software systems. The majority of the revenue in the system sales category is related to the sale of software. Revenue in the maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services category includes maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management follow-on training and implementation services, annual third party license fees, hosting services and other revenue. Maintenance revenue includes amounts initially deferred in conjunction with new customer arrangements and subsequently amortized and billings to existing customers.

System Sales. Revenue earned from company-wide sales of systems for the six months ended September 30, 2008 increased 19.3% to $49.7 million from $ 41.7 million in the prior year period.

Our increase in revenue from sales of systems was principally the result of a 18.2% increase in category revenue at our NextGen Division. Divisional sales in this category grew from $40.5 million during the six months ended September 30, 2007 to $47.9 million during the six months ended September 30, 2008. This increase was driven by higher sales of NextGen^emr and

32

NextGen^epm software to both new and existing clients, as well as increases in sales of hardware, third party software and supplies and implementation and training services.

The following table breaks down our reported system sales into software, hardware, third party software and supplies, and implementation and training services components by division:

	Software		Hardware, Third Party Software and Supplies		Implementation and Training Services		Total System Sales
Six months ended September 30, 2008
QSI Division	$	652	$	710	$	502	$	1,864
NextGen Division		37,065		4,239		6,569		47,873
Consolidated	$	37,717	$	4,949	$	7,071	$	49,737
Six months ended September 30, 2007
QSI Division	$	315	$	336	$	540	$	1,191
NextGen Division		32,245		2,357		5,890		40,492
Consolidated	$	32,560	$	2,693	$	6,430	$	41,683

NextGen Division software license revenue increased 14.9% between the six months ended September 30, 2008 and the prior year period. The Division’s software revenue accounted for 77.4% of divisional system sales revenue during the six months ended September 30, 2008. For the six month period ended September 30, 2007, divisional software revenue as a percentage of divisional system sales revenue was 79.6%. Software license revenue growth continues to be an area of primary emphasis for the NextGen Division.

During the six months ended September 30, 2008, 8.9% of NextGen’s system sales revenue was represented by hardware and third party software compared to 5.8% in the prior year period. During the six months ended September 30, 2008, there was a shift in the revenue mix with increased revenue coming from hardware revenue. The number of customers who purchase hardware and third party software and the dollar amount of hardware and third party software revenue fluctuates each quarter depending on the needs of customers. The inclusion of hardware and third party software in the Division’s sales arrangements is typically at the request of the customer and is not a priority focus for us.

Implementation and training revenue related to system sales at the NextGen Division grew 11.5% in the six months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2007 and increased 7.0% in the six months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the period year period 2006. The amount of implementation and training services revenue in any given quarter is dependent on several factors, including timing of customer implementations, the availability of qualified staff, and the mix of services being rendered. The number of implementation and training staff increased during the six months ended September 30, 2008 versus 2007 in order to accommodate the increased amount of implementation services sold in conjunction with increased software sales. In order to achieve growth in this area, additional staffing increases and additional training facilities are anticipated, though actual future increases in revenue and staff will depend upon the availability of qualified staff, business mix and conditions, and our ability to retain current staff members.

The NextGen Division’s growth has come in part from investments in sales and marketing activities including hiring additional sales representatives, trade show attendance, and advertising expenditures. We have also benefited from winning numerous industry awards for the NextGen Division’s flagship NextGen^emr and NextGen^epm software products and the apparent increasing acceptance of electronic medical records technology in the healthcare industry.

For the QSI Division, total system sales increased $0.7 million or 56.5% in the six months ended September 30, 2008 versus the same period ended September 30, 2007. We do not presently foresee any material changes in the business environment for the Division with respect to the weak purchasing environment in the dental group practice market that has existed for the past several years.

Maintenance, EDI, Revenue Cycle Management and Other Services. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, company-wide revenue from maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services grew 41.7% to $64.5 million from $45.5 million in the prior year period. The increase in this category resulted from an increase in maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management and other services revenue from the NextGen Division. Total NextGen Division maintenance revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2008 grew 37.4% to $30.8 million

33

from $22.4 million in the prior year period, while EDI revenue grew 40.1% to $11.4 million compared to $8.1 million during the prior year period. Revenue cycle management grew $6.1 million primarily as a result of the HSI acquisition. Other services revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2008 increased 21.5% to $9.5 million from $7.8 million in the prior year period, primarily due to increases in consulting services, annual licenses and hosting services revenue. QSI Division maintenance and EDI revenue remained fairly unchanged in the six months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the prior year period while QSI divisional other revenue decreased by $0.4 million in the six months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the prior year period.

The following table details revenue included in the maintenance, EDI, revenue cycle management, and other category for the six month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

	Maintenance		EDI		Revenue Cycle Management		Other		Total
Six months ended September 30, 2008
QSI Division	$	3,557	$	2,257	$	—	$	502	$	6,316
NextGen Division		30,813		11,398		6,484		9,457		58,152
Consolidated	$	34,370	$	13,655	$	6,484	$	9,959	$	64,468
Six months ended September 30, 2007
QSI Division	$	3,576	$	2,294	$	—	$	927	$	6,797
NextGen Division		22,425		8,136		356		7,781		38,698
Consolidated	$	26,001	$	10,430	$	356	$	8,708	$	45,495

The growth in maintenance revenue for the NextGen Division has come from new customers that have been added each quarter, existing customers who have purchased additional licenses, and our relative success in retaining existing maintenance customers. NextGen’s EDI revenue growth has come from new customers and from further penetration of the Division’s existing customer base. We intend to continue to promote maintenance and EDI services to both new and existing customers.

The following table provides the number of billing sites which were receiving maintenance services as of the last business day of the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, as well as the number of billing sites receiving EDI services during the last month of each respective period at each operating division of the Company. The table presents summary information only and includes billing entities added and removed for any reason. Note also that a single client may include one or multiple billing sites, and changes in billing protocols for certain clients can cause period to period changes in the number of billing sites.

	NextGen				QSI				Consolidated
	Maintenance		EDI		Maintenance		EDI		Maintenance		EDI
September 30, 2007	1,035		890		257		178		1,292		1,068
Billing sites added	206		270		10		40		216		310
Billing sites removed	(42	)	(97	)	(18	)	(45	)	(60	)	(142	)

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2008 increased 38.0% to $40.4 million from $ 29.3 million in the six months ended September 30, 2007 and the cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue increased to 35.4% from 33.6% due to the fact that the rate of growth in cost of revenue grew faster than the aggregate revenue growth rate for the Company.

The increase in our consolidated cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue between the six months ended September 30, 2008 and the six months ended September 30, 2007 is primarily attributable to an increase in the level of hardware and third party software in the NextGen division, increase in payroll and related benefits, and EDI costs in both divisions, offset by a decrease in other expense as a percentage of revenue. Other expense, which consists of outside service costs, amortization of software development costs and other costs, decreased to 7.9% of total revenue during the six months ended September 30, 2008 from 9.9% of total revenue during the six months ended September 30, 2007.

34

The following table details the individual components of cost of revenue and gross profit as a percentage of total revenue for our Company and our two operating divisions.

	Hardware, Third Party Software		Payroll and related Benefits		EDI		Other		Total Cost of Revenue		Gross Profit
Six months ended September 30, 2008
QSI Division	7.9	%	19.6	%	15.7	%	3.1	%	46.3	%	53.7	%
NextGen Division	4.4	%	12.8	%	8.5	%	8.9	%	34.6	%	65.4	%
Consolidated	4.7	%	13.8	%	9.0	%	7.9	%	35.4	%	64.6	%
Six months ended September 30, 2007
QSI Division	6.2	%	18.7	%	15.1	%	4.5	%	44.5	%	55.5	%
NextGen Division	3.5	%	11.2	%	7.4	%	10.4	%	32.5	%	67.5	%
Consolidated	3.7	%	11.9	%	8.1	%	9.9	%	33.6	%	66.4	%

During the six months ended September 30, 2008, hardware and third party software constituted a larger portion of consolidated cost of revenue compared to the prior year period in the NextGen Division. The number of customers who purchase hardware and third party software and the dollar amount of hardware and third party software purchased fluctuates each quarter depending on the needs of the customers and is not a priority focus for us.

Our payroll and benefits expense associated with delivering our products and services increased to 13.8% of consolidated revenue in the six months ended September 30, 2008 compared to 11.9% during the six months ended September 30, 2007 primarily due to the acquisition of HSI which as a service business has an inherently higher percentage of payroll costs as a percentage of revenue. The absolute level of consolidated payroll and benefit expenses grew from $10.4 million in the six months ended September 30, 2007 to $15.9 million in the six months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of 54% or approximately $5.5 million. Of the $5.5 million increase, approximately $2.7 million was a result of the HSI acquisition, which closed on May 20, 2008. In addition, related headcount, payroll and benefits expense associated with delivering products and services in the NextGen Division increased to $14.0 million in the six months ended September 30, 2008 from $8.9 million in the six months ended September 30, 2007. Payroll and benefits expense associated with delivering products and services in the QSI Division increased to 19.6% during the six months ended September 30, 2008 from 18.7% in the six months ended September 30, 2007. The application of SFAS 123R added approximately $0.2 million and $0.3 million in compensation expense to cost of revenue for both the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

We anticipate continued additions to headcount in the NextGen Division in areas related to delivering products and services in future periods but due to the uncertainties in the timing of our sales arrangements, our sales mix, the acquisition and training of qualified personnel, and other issues, we cannot accurately predict if related headcount expense as a percentage of revenue will increase or decrease in the future.

We do not currently intend to make any significant additions to related headcount at the QSI Division.

As a result of the foregoing events and activities, the gross profit percentage for the Company and our NextGen Division decreased for the six month period ended September 30, 2008 versus the prior year period.

The following table details revenue and cost of revenue on a consolidated and divisional basis for the six month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

35

	Six months ended September 30,
	2008		%		2007		%
QSI Division
Revenue	$	8,180	100.0	%	$	7,988	100.0	%
Cost of revenue		3,787	46.3	%		3,556	44.5	%
Gross profit	$	4,393	53.7	%	$	4,432	55.5	%
NextGen Division
Revenue	$	106,025	100.0	%	$	79,190	100.0	%
Cost of revenue		36,662	34.6	%		25,761	32.5	%
Gross profit	$	69,363	65.4	%	$	53,429	67.5	%
Consolidated
Revenue	$	114,205	100.0	%	$	87,178	100.0	%
Cost of revenue		40,449	35.4	%		29,317	33.6	%
Gross profit	$	73,756	64.6	%	$	57,861	66.4	%

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2008 increased 29.8% to $33.5 million as compared to $25.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in these expenses resulted from:

o a $0.5 million increase in compensation expense in the NextGen Division,

o a $0.4 million in selling related expenses in the NextGen Division,

o a $1.5 million increase in legal expenses in the NextGen Division,

o a $0.6 million increase in outside services in the NextGen division,

o a $2.7 million increase in other selling, general and administrative expenses in the NextGen Division; and

o a $2.0 million increase in corporate related expenses.

Approximately $1.2 million of the year over year corporate related expense was related to expenses associated with the proxy contest which occurred in conjunction with the 2008 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting. Increase corporate salaries and related benefits of $0.4 million also contributed to the year over year corporate increase.

The application of SFAS 123R added approximately $0.8 million and $1.3 million in compensation expense to selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and is included in the aforementioned amounts. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased slightly from 29.6% in the six months ended September 30, 2007 to 29.4% in the six months ended September 30, 2008.

We anticipate increased expenditures for trade shows, advertising and the employment of additional sales and administrative staff at the NextGen Division. We also anticipate future increases in corporate expenditures being made in a wide range of areas including expenses related to the proxy contest. While we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase on an absolute basis, we cannot accurately predict the impact these additional expenditures will have on selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue.

Research and Development Costs. Research and development costs for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were $6.5 million and $5.5 million, respectively. The increases in research and development expenses were due in part to increased investment in the NextGen product line. Additionally, the application of SFAS 123R added approximately $0.2 million and $0.5 million in compensation expense to research and development costs for both the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Additions to capitalized software costs offset research and development costs. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, $3.2 million was added to capitalized software costs while $3.0 million was capitalized during the three months ended September 30, 2007. Research and development costs as a percentage of revenue decreased to 5.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2008 from 6.3% for the same period in 2007. Research and development expenses are expected to continue at or above current dollar levels.

Interest Income. Interest income for the six months ended September 30, 2008 decreased to $0.7 million compared to $1.4 million in the six months ended September 30, 2007. Interest income decreased in the six months ended September 30, 2008 primarily due a greater proportion of funds invested in short-term U.S Treasuries and money market accounts which earned lower interest rates as compared to the prior year.

36

Our investment policy is determined by our Board of Directors. We currently maintain our cash in liquid short term assets including money market funds and auction rate securities with maturities or interest reset dates of 35 days or less. Our Board of Directors continues to review alternate uses for our cash including, but not limited to, payment of a special dividend, initiation of a stock buy back program, an expansion of our investment policy to include investments with longer maturities of greater than 90 days, or other items. Additionally, it is possible that we will utilize some or all of our cash to fund acquisitions or other similar business activities. Any or all of these programs could significantly impact our investment income in future periods.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was approximately $12.9 million as compared to approximately $10.3 million for the year ago period. The effective tax rates for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was 37.3% and for the six months ended September 30 2007 was 36.9%. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was impacted by the expiration of the Federal research and development tax credit statute which occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 and not extended until October 2, 2008 so therefore, was not included in the current quarter provision.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table presents selected financial statistics and information as of and for each of the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

	Six months ended September 30,
	2008		2007
Cash and cash equivalents	$	67,880	$	26,920
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents during the six month period	$	8,834	$	(33,108	)
Net income during the six month period	$	21,613	$	17,612
Net cash provided by operations during the six month period	$	15,403	$	19,227
Number of days of sales outstanding at start of the period		136		129
Number of days of sales outstanding at the end of the period		140		138

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Cash provided by operations has historically been our primary source of cash and has primarily been driven by our net income and secondarily by non-cash expenses including depreciation, amortization of capitalized software and other intangible assets, provisions for bad debts, net deferred income taxes and stock option expenses.

The following table summarizes our statement of cash flows for the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

	Six months ended September 30,
	2008			2007
Net income	$	21,613		$	17,612
Non-cash expenses		7,171			4,805
Change in deferred revenue		1,210			488
Change in accounts receivable		(12,403	)		(4,649	)
Change in other assets and liabilities		(2,187	)		971
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	15,404		$	19,227

Net Income

As referenced in the above table, net income makes up the majority of our cash generated from operations for the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. Our NextGen Division’s

37

contribution to net income has increased each year due to that division’s operating income increasing more quickly than operating income of the Company as a whole.

Non-Cash expenses

For the six months ended September 30, 2008, non-cash expenses primarily include $1.3 million of depreciation, $2.5 million of amortization of capitalized software and $1.1 million of stock option compensation expenses. Total non-cash expense was approximately $7.2 million and $4.8 million for the six month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Deferred Revenue

Cash from operations benefited from increases in deferred revenue primarily due to an increase in the volume of implementation and maintenance services invoiced by the NextGen Division which had not yet been rendered or recognized as revenue, but for which cash was received. Deferred revenue grew by approximately $1.2 million in the six month period ending September 30, 2008 versus $0.5 million in the prior year period.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable grew by approximately $12.4 million and $4.6 million in the six month periods ending September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase in accounts receivable is due to the following factors:

§	NextGen Division revenue grew 33.9% and 20.6% on a year-over-year basis, in the six month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively;
§	The NextGen Division constituted a larger percentage of our receivables at September 30, 2008 compared to March, 2007. Turnover of accounts receivable in the NextGen Division is slower than the QSI Division due to the fact that the majority of the QSI Division’s revenue is derived from maintenance and EDI services which typically have shorter payment terms than systems sales related revenue which historically have accounted for a major portion of NextGen Division sales;
§	The HSI acquisition added approximately $2.5 million of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2008; and
§	We experienced an increase in the volume of undelivered services billed in advance by the NextGen Division which were unpaid as of the end of each period and included in accounts receivable. This resulted in an increase in both deferred revenue and accounts receivable of approximately $4.6 and $0.2 million in the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The turnover of accounts receivable measured in terms of days sales outstanding (DSO) increased from 138 days to 140 days during the six month period ended September 30, 2008, due, in part, to the above mentioned factors. If amounts included in both accounts receivable and deferred revenue were netted, the Company’s turnover of accounts receivable expressed as DSO would be 93 days as of September 30, 2008 and 90 days as of September 30, 2007, respectively. Provided turnover of accounts receivable, deferred revenue, and profitability remain consistent with the six months ended September 30, 2008, we anticipate being able to continue to generate cash from operations during fiscal 2009 primarily from the net income of the Company.

Cash flows from investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $4.3 million and $50.2 million, respectively. The increase in cash used in investing activities is a result of the Company’s acquisition of HSI which included a payment of $8.2 million. This use of cash was offset by sales of short-term investments in ARS of approximately $8.6 million. As discussed above, these ARS are classified as short-term or long-term investments on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition to acquisition and sales of marketable securities, net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended September 30, 2008 consisted of additions to equipment and improvements and capitalized software. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended September 30, 2007 consisted of additions to equipment and improvements and capitalized software and purchases of marketable securities of $46.0 million.

Cash flows from financing activities

During the six months ended September 30, 2008, we received proceeds of $10.8 million from the exercise of stock options, recorded a reduction in income tax liability of $3.0 million and paid dividends totaling $13.9 million. In addition, we made loan payments of $2.3 million related to the debt assumed in the HSI acquisition.

Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities

At September 30, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of $67.9 million and marketable securities of $12.7 million. We intend to expend some of these funds for the development of

38

products complementary to our existing product line as well as new versions of certain of our products. These developments are intended to take advantage of more powerful technologies and to increase the integration of our products. We have no additional significant current capital commitments.

On May 29, 2008, the Board approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share on our outstanding shares of common stock, payable to shareholders of record as of March 15, 2008 with a distribution date on or about July 1, 2008.

On August 4, 2008, the Board approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share on our outstanding shares of common stock, payable to shareholders of record as of September 15, 2008 with an expected distribution date on or about October 1, 2008.

On October 30, 2008, the Board approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share on our outstanding shares of common stock, payable to shareholders of record as of December 15, 2008 with an expected distribution date on or about January 5, 2009.

Management believes that its cash and cash equivalents on hand at September 30, 2008, together with its marketable securities and cash flows from operations, if any, will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements as well as any dividends paid in the ordinary course of business for the balance of fiscal 2009.

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes our significant contractual obligations at September 30, 2008, and the effect that such obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash in future periods:

Contractual Obligations – Non-cancelable lease obligations	(in thousands)
Year Ending March 31,
2009	$	3,674
2010	$	3,744
2011	$	3,561
2012	$	1,716

New Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When The Market for That Asset Is Not Active”, or FSP 157-3, to clarify the application of the provisions of SFAS 157 in an inactive market and how an entity would determine fair value in an inactive market. FSP 157-3 is effective immediately and applies to the Company’s September 30, 2008 consolidated financial statements.

In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. Emerging Issue Task Force (“EITF”) 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities”. FSP No. EITF 03-6-1 concluded that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) pursuant to the two-class method. This FSP becomes effective on April 1, 2009. Early adoption of the FSP is not permitted; however, it will apply retrospectively to EPS data for all periods presented in the financial statements or in financial data. We do not currently anticipate that this FSP will have a material impact on our EPS data in fiscal year 2010 or on EPS for any prior periods presented in the financial data upon adoption.

In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (SFAS 162)”.SFAS 162 defines the order in which accounting principles that are generally accepted should be followed. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB finalized Staff Position (FSP) No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”. The position amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The position applies to intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets

39

and both intangible assets acquired in business combinations and asset acquisitions. FSP 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of FSP 142-3 on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements of the original pronouncement requiring that the purchase method be used for all business combinations. SFAS 141(R) defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination, establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control and requires the acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest at their fair values as of the acquisition date. In addition, SFAS 141(R) requires expensing of acquisition-related and restructure-related costs, remeasurement of earn out provisions at fair value, measurement of equity securities issued for purchase at the date of close of the transaction and non-expensing of in-process research and development related intangibles. SFAS 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. An entity may not apply it before that date. This pronouncement will be applied by the Company when it becomes effective and when or if the Company effectuates a business combination post adoption, otherwise there is no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risks

We maintain investments in tax exempt municipal Auction Rate Securities (ARS) which are classified as current and non-current marketable securities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. A small portion of the Company’s portfolio is invested in closed-end funds which invest in tax exempt municipal auction rate securities. These instruments are known as Auction Rate Preferred Securities (ARPS). At September 30, 2008, we had approximately $12.7 million of ARS and ARPS on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The ARS and ARPS are rated by one or more national rating agencies and have contractual terms of up to 30 years, but generally have interest rate reset dates that occur every 7, 28 or 35 days.

Despite the underlying long-term maturity of ARS, such securities were priced and subsequently traded as short-term investments because of the interest rate reset feature. If there are insufficient buyers, the auction is said to “fail” and the holders are unable to liquidate the investments through auction. A failed auction does not result in a default of the debt instrument. The securities will continue to accrue interest and be auctioned until the auction succeeds, the issuer calls the securities, or the securities mature. In February 2008, the Company began to experience failed auctions on its ARS and ARPS. To determine their estimated fair values at September 30, 2008, factors including credit quality, the likelihood of redemption, and yields or spreads of fixed rate municipal bonds or other trading instruments issued by the same or comparable issuers were considered. Based on these factors, a temporary impairment, net of tax, of $994 was recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2008. If the Company sells any of the ARS, prior to maturity, at an amount below original purchase value, or if it becomes probable that the Company will not receive 100% of the principal and interest from the issuer as to any of the ARS, the Company will be required to recognize an other-than-temporary impairment charge against net income. Based on our ability to access our cash and other short-term investments, our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not anticipate the current lack of liquidity on these investments to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operation.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively) conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)). Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2008, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures result in the effective recordation, processing, summarization and reporting of information that is required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2008, no significant changes have occurred in our “internal controls over financial reporting” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our financial reporting function. We are performing ongoing evaluations and enhancements to our internal controls system.

Item 5. Other Information.

We have experienced legal claims by parties asserting that we have infringed their intellectual property rights. We believe that these claims are without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously; however, we could incur substantial costs and diversion of management resources defending any infringement claim – even if we are ultimately successful in the defense of such matter.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

This Agreement and Plan of Merger (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of October 15, 2008 by and among (i) QUALITY SYSTEMS, INC., a California corporation (the “Parent”), (ii) NEXTGEN HEALTHCARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC., a California corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent (“NextGen”) (iii) RUTH MERGER SUB, INC., a Maryland corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NextGen (the “Merger Sub”), (iv) PRACTICE MANAGEMENT PARTNERS, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and (v) PERRY SNYDER and DONALD GOOD (each an “Indemnifying Stockholder” and collectively, the “Indemnifying Stockholders”).

This Agreement contemplates a merger of the Merger Sub with and into the Company. In such merger, the Constituents will receive cash and shares of Parent’s common stock in exchange for their capital stock or options to purchase capital stock of the Company. Unless otherwise defined herein or the context clearly requires otherwise, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in Article X hereof.

Now, therefore, in consideration of the representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows.

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

1.1The Merger. Upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Merger Sub shall merge with and into the Company at the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of the Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the Surviving Corporation. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 3-114 of the Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”).

1.2       The Closing. The Closing shall take place at the offices of Whiteford, Taylor & Preston L.L.P. in Baltimore, Maryland, or at such other place as the Parties may mutually agree in writing, commencing at 10:00 a.m. local time on the second Business Day following the date on which the last of the conditions set forth in Article VI have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions that may only be satisfied on the Closing date, but subject to satisfaction of such conditions) or on such other date as the Parent and the Company may mutually agree in writing (the “Closing Date”).

1.3 Actions at the Closing.

(a) At the Closing:

(i)        the Company shall deliver to the Parent the various certificates, instruments and documents referred to in Section 6.1 of this Agreement;

(iii)     the Surviving Corporation and the Merger Sub shall file with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation the Maryland Articles of Merger; and

(iv)      the Parent, the Stockholder Representatives and the Escrow Agent shall execute and deliver the Escrow Agreement.

(b)       Upon confirmation from the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation that the Maryland Articles of Merger have been filed and accepted:

(i)        each Company Stockholder, other than holders of Dissenting Shares, shall deliver to the Parent for cancellation the certificate(s) representing their Company Shares together with an appropriate letter of transmittal (each, a “Stockholder Transmittal Letter”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A;

(ii)       each holder of Options shall deliver to the Parent for cancellation the agreements and/or instruments evidencing his/her Options, together with an acknowledgment of termination thereof, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (collectively the “Option Termination Agreements”);

(iii)      the Parent shall pay by wire transfer the cash portion of the Closing Amount to each Constituent into which such Constituent’s Company Shares or Options, as the case may be, are converted or exchanged pursuant to Section 1.5(a);

(iv)      the Parent shall submit to its transfer agent an order for the issuance of the Parent Shares portion of the Closing Amount to each Constituent into which such Constituent’s Company Shares or Options, as the case may be, are converted or exchanged pursuant to Section 1.5(a);

(v)       the Parent shall deposit the Escrow Amount with the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 1.9; and

(vi)      the Parent shall pay in full the Company debt listed in Section 1.3(b)(vi) of the Disclosure Schedule pursuant to the payoff letters (or other similar authorizations or demands) from such lenders.

1.4       Additional Action. The Surviving Corporation may, at any time after the Effective Time, take any action, including executing and delivering any document, in the name and on behalf of the Company or the Merger Sub, in order to consummate the series of transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

1.5       Conversion of Shares and Options. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and the Option Termination Agreements without any further action on the part of any Party or the holder of any of the Company Shares or the holder of any Option:

(a)       Each Company Share (other than Dissenting Shares) and Option shall be converted, in accordance with the formula set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto, into the right to receive a portion (which may, in the case of some Options, be zero) of the Aggregate Transaction Consideration which shall be payable at any time in which a portion of the Aggregate

-2-

Transaction Consideration is distributed to the Constituents in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement (each a “Payment Date”) as follows:

(i)        to each Company Stockholder for each Company Share held by him, her or it as of the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares), an amount of cash or Parent Shares, as the case may be, equal to the Final Revised Cumulative Price minus any amounts previously paid to such Company Stockholder for such Company Share pursuant to this Section 1.5(a); provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 1.5(a)(i), Parent Shares shall be valued using the Share Valuation Method; and

(ii)       to each holder of an In-the-Money-Option, for each In-the-Money-Option held by such holder, an amount of cash or Parent Shares, as the case may be, equal to the product of (a) the Final Revised Cumulative Price, and (b) the number of Company Shares issuable upon exercise of the In-the-Money-Option held by such holder, minus (y) the aggregate exercise price for such In-the-Money Options, minus (z) any amounts previously paid for such In-the-Money-Options pursuant to this Section 1.5(a) (ignoring any reductions required for tax withholding); provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 1.5(a)(ii), Parent Shares shall be valued using the Share Valuation Method;

(b)       Whenever cash payments are due by the Parent under this Agreement, Parent shall pay, or such funds shall be released from the Escrow Account and transferred, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Constituents, the amount determined in accordance with the preceding provisions of Section 1.5(a).

(c)       Each share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share of the Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and thereafter evidence one share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(d)       No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Shares shall be issued as part of any amount of the Aggregate Transaction Consideration that a Constituent has a right to receive. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event a Constituent would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Shares such fraction shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole share.

(e)       For illustrative purposes only, a spreadsheet prepared by Indemnifying Stockholders showing the calculations for the assumed distributions to each Constituent is set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto.

1.6 Closing Amount Adjustments.

(a) Estimated Net Debt Adjustment.

(i)        The cash portion of the Closing Amount will be adjusted by the amount, if any, by which the Net Debt as of the Closing is lesser or greater than One Million Eight Hundred Thirty-Four Thousand Four Hundred Nineteen Dollars ($1,834,419) (the “Target Net Debt”).

-3-

(ii)       Two Business Days before the Closing Date, the Stockholder Representatives will deliver to Parent a certificate setting forth, as of the date thereof, an estimate of the amount of Cash and Debt expected as of the Closing Date (on a pro forma basis giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). The amount of Debt will be itemized by creditor, with supporting detail, and the amount of Cash will specify cash on hand and each cash equivalent, with supporting detail. If the amount of estimated Net Debt as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Net Debt”) is less than the Target Net Debt, the cash portion of the Closing Amount will be increased by an amount equal to such shortfall, and if the Estimated Net Debt is greater than the Target Net Debt, the cash portion of the Closing Amount will be reduced by an amount equal to such excess (the amount of such increase or decrease shall be referred to as the “Estimated Net Debt Adjustment”).

(b) Estimated Working Capital Adjustment  

(i)        The cash portion of the Closing Amount will be adjusted by the amount by which Closing Date Working Capital is greater or less than One Million Three Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Four Hundred Fifty-Four ($1,375,454) (the “Target Working Capital”).

(ii)       Two Business Days before the Closing Date, the Stockholder Representatives will deliver to Parent a certificate setting forth, as of the date thereof, an estimate of the Closing Date Working Capital (the “Estimated Working Capital”), with supporting detail. If the Closing Date Working Capital set forth in such certificate is greater than the Target Working Capital, the cash portion of the Closing Amount will be increased by such excess and if the Closing Date Working Capital set forth in such certificate is less than the Target Working Capital, the cash portion of the Closing Amount will be decreased by such shortfall (the amount of such increase or decrease shall be referred to as the “Estimated Working Capital Adjustment”).

(c)       Closing Amount Adjustment. Within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of the Final Balance Sheet pursuant to Section 1.6(d) of this Agreement, the cash portion of the Closing Amount will be adjusted (the amount of any such adjustment, the “Closing Amount Adjustment”) and the Parent or the Constituents, as the case may be, will make whatever payments to each other as are necessary, if any, such that the Closing Amount is what it would have been had (i) the Estimated Net Debt equaled the Net Debt reflected on such Final Balance Sheet; and (ii) the Estimated Working Capital equaled the Closing Date Working Capital reflected on such Final Balance Sheet. Parent will pay any amount due to the Constituents by wire transfer in immediately available funds to each of the Constituents in an amount equal to the portion of the Closing Amount into which his or her Company Shares or Options, as the case may be, are converted or exchanged pursuant to Section 1.5(a). In the event a Closing Amount Adjustment is due to the Parent hereunder, the amount shall be disbursed (i) from the Escrow Amount, (ii) to the extent the Escrow Amount is insufficient to pay in full such Closing Amount Adjustment, then from any other amounts of the Aggregate Transaction Consideration payable to the Constituents hereunder, whether by right of setoff or otherwise, or (iii) if amounts payable hereunder are not sufficient, upon demand by Parent, from the Indemnifying Stockholders on a several basis based on their respective Pro Rata Share.

-4-

(d)       Adjustment Procedures. The adjustments described in Section 1.6(c) will be determined as follows:

(i)        Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Parent shall prepare, in accordance with GAAP, and deliver to the Stockholder Representatives a balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (the “Final Balance Sheet”). The Parties acknowledge and agree that for purposes of determining the Closing Amount Adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.6(d)(i) the Final Balance Sheet shall be prepared on a basis consistent with and utilizing the same principles, practices and policies of the Company, as those used in preparing the Most Recent Balance Sheet, subject to the Accounting Policies. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the items listed on Section 1.6(d)(i) of the Disclosure Schedule shall be taken into account in calculating Net Debt and Closing Date Working Capital for the pre-closing estimates and on the Final Balance Sheet.

(ii)       The Stockholder Representatives and any professionals chosen by them shall have the right to review the Surviving Corporation’s books and records relating to, and the work papers of the Parent and its advisors utilized in, preparing the Final Balance Sheet. The Final Balance Sheet shall be binding for purposes of the Closing Amount Adjustment unless the Stockholder Representatives present to the Parent within 15 Business Days after receipt of the Final Balance Sheet from the Parent written notice of disagreement specifying in reasonable detail the nature and extent of the disagreement.

(iii)      If the Stockholder Representatives deliver a timely notice of disagreement, the Parent and the Stockholder Representatives shall attempt in good faith during the thirty (30) days immediately following the Parent’s receipt of timely notice of disagreement to resolve any disagreement with respect to the Final Balance Sheet. If, at the conclusion of such 30-day period, the Parent and the Stockholder Representatives have not resolved their disagreements regarding the Final Balance Sheet, the Parent and the Stockholder Representatives shall refer the items of disagreement for final determination to the Philadelphia office of a regional accounting firm which is mutually acceptable to the Parent and the Stockholder Representatives (the “Accountants”). However, if the Parent and Stockholder Representatives are unable to agree on such a firm which is willing to so serve, the Parent shall deliver to the Stockholder Representatives a list of two independent regional accounting firms that are not auditors, tax advisors or other consultants to the Parent, the Company or the Stockholder Representatives, and the Stockholder Representatives shall select one of such two firms to be the Accountants within five (5) Business Days. The parties will be reasonably available for such firm, and shall instruct such firm to render a final determination within the 20 days immediately following the referral to the Accountants. The Final Balance Sheet shall be deemed to be conclusive and binding on the Parent and the Constituents upon (A) the failure of the Stockholder Representatives to deliver to the Parent a notice of disagreement within 15 Business Days of their receipt of the Final Balance Sheet prepared by the Parent, (B) resolution of any disagreement by mutual agreement of the Parent and the Stockholder Representatives after a timely notice of disagreement has been delivered to the Parent, or (C) notification by the Accountants of their final determination of the items of disagreement submitted to them.

(e)       The fees and disbursements of the Accountants under Section 1.6(d) shall be borne exclusively by the Constituents unless the adjustments to the Final Balance Sheet

-5-

resulting from the Stockholder Representatives’ notice of disagreement caused an increase in the Closing Amount Adjustment in favor of the Constituents in excess of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), in which case such fees and disbursements shall be borne exclusively by the Parent. In the event the Constituents are obligated to pay the fees and disbursements of the Accountants hereunder, such amounts shall be disbursed (i) from the Escrow Amount, (ii) to the extent the Escrow Amount is insufficient to pay in full such fees and disbursements, then from any other amounts of the Aggregate Transaction Consideration payable to the Constituents hereunder, whether by right of setoff or otherwise, or (iii) if amounts payable hereunder are not sufficient, upon demand by Parent, from the Indemnifying Stockholders.

1.7 Earnout Payments.

(a)       The Constituents shall be eligible to receive earnout consideration up to a maximum of three million dollars ($3,000,000) for all such earnout payments, based on the performance of the Surviving Corporation following the Closing as set forth in this Section 1.7.

(i)        For the period beginning immediately after the Closing and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing (the “First Earnout Period”), the Constituents shall receive $3 for every $1 of Post-Closing Net Income in excess of one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Adjusted Forecast for such First Earnout Period (the “First Earnout Period Payment”).

(ii)        For the period beginning on the day after the first anniversary of the Closing and ending on the second anniversary of the Closing (the “Second Earnout Period”), the Constituents shall receive $3 for every $1 of Post-Closing Net Income in excess of one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Adjusted Forecast for such Second Earnout Period until the Post-Closing Net Income results in an aggregate of $1.5 million of earnout consideration being earned during the Second Earnout Period (such amount of Post-Closing Net Income, the “Second Earnout Threshold”), at which point the amount earned thereafter shall change to $1.50 for every $1 of Post-Closing Net Income in excess of the Second Earnout Threshold for such Second Earnout Period (collectively, the “Second Earnout Period Payment”).

(b)       Earnout amounts shall be calculated promtly after the preparation of the Parent’s financial statements following the accounting period in which the end of such earnout period occurs. The First Earnout Period Payment, if any, shall be deposited with Escrow Agent and made part of the Escrow Amount. The calculation of the amount earned in the First Earnout Period Payment or Second Earnout Period Payment, as the case may be, may be referred to as the “Earnout Payment” for such period. Such Earnout Payments shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent or paid to the Constituents in accordance with Section 1.5(a), as the case may be, within the later of (i) ninety (90) days after the Parent’s delivery to the Stockholder Representatives of the applicable Earnout Certificate, or (ii) if disputed pursuant to Section 1.7(f) below, ten (10) Business Days after final determination of the applicable Earnout Payment pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.7(f).

(c) [intentionally omitted]

(d)       In no case shall the aggregate amounts paid pursuant to this Section 1.7 exceed $3 million.

(e)       As soon as reasonably practicable following Parent’s determination of the Earnout Payment for each of the First Earnout Period and Second Earnout Period (but in no event prior to the date the Parent’s financial statements for the periods to which such Earnout Payments relate have been publicly disclosed by Parent), Parent will deliver to the Stockholder Representatives (i) a statement that includes each element of the calculation of the Earnout Payment; and (ii) a certificate of the Parent’s Chief Financial Officer certifying on behalf of the Parent that the calculation of the Earnout Payment was made in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.7 (such statement and certificate being referred to as the “Earnout Certificate”). The Stockholder Representatives and their professional advisors will be given reasonable access to only those books and records of the Surviving Corporation that are necessary to confirm the calculation of the Earnout Payment. All information obtained by the Stockholder Representatives shall be deemed to be confidential information of the Parent subject to the restrictions of the Confidentiality Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit I.

 

(f) Dispute Resolution.

(i)        The amount of the Earnout Payment for each of the First Earnout Period and Second Earnout Period set forth in the Earnout Certificate shall be binding on the Constituents unless the Stockholder Representatives present to the Parent within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Earnout Certificate written notice of disagreement specifying in reasonable detail the nature and extent of the disagreement. The Parent and the Stockholder Representatives shall attempt in good faith during the thirty (30) days immediately following the Parent’s receipt of the Stockholder Representatives’ timely notice of disagreement to resolve any disagreement with respect to such Earnout Payment.

(ii)       If, at the end of the 30-day period referenced in Section 1.7(f)(i) above, Parent and the Stockholder Representatives have not resolved all disagreements with respect to whether the calculation of the Earnout Payment is in accordance with the terms of Section 1.7 of this Agreement, Parent and the Stockholder Representatives will refer the items of disagreement to the Accountants (selected in accordance with Section 1.6(d)(iii)) for non-binding mediation. The parties will be reasonably available and work diligently to facilitate the mediation of all disputes between the parties within the 30-day period immediately following the referral to the Accountants. The Accountants, Parent and the Stockholder Representatives will enter into such engagement letters as required by the Accountants to perform under this Section 1.7(f)(ii). The fees and disbursements of the Accountants under this Section 1.7(f)(ii) will be deducted from the Earnout Payments (and borne by the Stockholder Representatives if there are no Earnout Payments), unless it is determined that (A) the Earnout Certificate understated the applicable Earnout Payment for the period in question by $100,000 or more or (B) Parent acted in bad faith with respect to such understatement, in either which case such fees and disbursements will be borne exclusively by Parent.

(iii)      If, at the end of the second 30-day period referenced in subsection (ii) above, Parent and the Stockholder Representatives have not resolved all disagreements submitted to the Accountants for mediation with respect to whether the calculation of the Earnout Payment is in accordance with the terms of Section 1.7 of this Agreement, any such remaining disagreement, regardless of the legal theory upon which it is based, will be settled by final, binding arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9

-7-

U.S.C. § 1 et seq., in accordance with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in effect at such time, which will be the sole and exclusive procedures for any such disagreement. The arbitration will be heard before a sole neutral arbitrator mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Stockholder Representatives. If Parent and the Stockholder Representatives cannot agree upon such an arbitrator within ten (10) Business Days after the date referenced in the first sentence of this subsection (iii), AAA will appoint an arbitrator with expertise in the general industry of the business engaged in by the Surviving Corporation. All arbitration proceedings will take place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. If the arbitrator finds in favor of the Constituents, the arbitrator will have no authority to award amounts to the Constituents in excess of the amounts the Constituents would have been entitled to receive for any Earnout Payment in the absence of the actions taken by Parent and determined by the arbitrator to be in violation of Section 1.7. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the arbitrator will have no authority to award any special, punitive, exemplary, consequential, incidental or indirect losses or damages. Judgment upon any award granted in a proceeding brought pursuant to this subsection (iii) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Should it become necessary to resort or respond to court proceedings to enforce a Party’s compliance with this Section 1.7(f)(iii), such proceedings will be brought only in the federal or state courts located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which will have exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any disputes with respect to this Section 1.7(f)(iii), with each Party irrevocably consenting to the jurisdiction thereof.

(g) Conduct of Business.

(i)        The Constituents understand, acknowledge and agree (as evidenced by, in the case of the Company Stockholders, the adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger by such Company Stockholders and, in the case of the holders of Options, the execution and delivery of the Option Termination Agreements by such holders of Options) that, except as specifically restricted by subsections (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) of this Section 1.7(g), the Parent is entitled to manage and operate the Surviving Corporation and its businesses in its sole and absolute discretion.

(ii)       Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by each of Parent and the Stockholder Representatives in its and their sole discretion, to the extent Parent or an Affiliate of Parent, except through the Surviving Corporation, during the Earnout Periods in the states of Virginia, Maryland, Delaware and the District of Columbia (the “Target Region”): (A) conducts outsourced billing and collections services business, then any increase in net income of the Parent or an Affiliate of Parent attributable to new business generated in the Target Region shall be credited to the Surviving Corporation for purposes of Section 1.7(a) hereof; or (B) acquires or combines with any Acquired Person that conducts outsourced billing and collections services business, then any increase in net income of the Acquired Person attributable to new business generated in the Target Region after the closing of such acquisition or combination over the net income of the Acquired Person in the Target Region prior to such closing shall be credited to the Surviving Corporation for purposes of Section 1.7(a) hereof. To the extent that Parent or an Affiliate of Parent requires the Surviving Corporation to manage or operate (A) a business or (B) another Affiliate that operates outside of the Target Region, any increase in net income of the Parent or such Affiliate of Parent attributable to such managed or operated business or other Affiliate shall be credited to the Surviving Corporation for purposes of Section 1.7(a) hereof.

-8-

Net income generated from business in the Target Region or from the acquisition or combination with any Acquired Person shall be determined in accordance with the principles outlined in this Agreement, where applicable.

(iii)      Notwithstanding any other provision herein, (A) without the Surviving Corporation’s prior written consent, Parent will not and will not permit an Acquired Person or any other of Parent’s Affiliates (other than the Surviving Corporation) to solicit any active customers, or identified prospects, of the Surviving Corporation for the provision of services that fall within the scope of the definition of “Business,” and (B) without Parent’s prior written consent, Surviving Corporation will not and will not permit its employees, agents or representatives to solicit any active customers, or identified prospects, of Parent or Parent’s Affiliates (other than the Surviving Corporation) for the provision of services. An “identified prospect” of the Surviving Corporation or of Parent is a potential customer of the Company (pre-Closing) or Surviving Corporation (post-Closing), on the one hand, or Parent or Parent’s Affiliates (other than the Surviving Corporation), on the other hand, to which such party has made a written proposal or solicitation and had face to face contact, in each case within the immediately preceding 120 days from the time in question and (X) as to the Surviving Corporation, has been disclosed by the Company in Section 1.7(g)(iii)(X) of the Disclosure Schedule and, (Y) as to Parent or Parent’s Affiliates (other than the Surviving Corporation), has been disclosed by Parent in Section 1.7(g)(iii)(Y) of the Disclosure Schedule, each of which respective schedules shall be updated by the Surviving Corporation and Parent on a calendar quarter basis until the end of the Second Earnout Period and delivered to the other party (Surviving Corporation or Parent, respectively) in writing within ten (10) business days of the end of each calendar quarter. An “active customer” is a customer to which the Company (pre-Closing) or Surviving Corporation (post-Closing), on the one hand, or Parent or Parent’s Affiliates (other than the Surviving Corporation), on the other hand, has actually provided services within the immediately preceding six (6) months from the time in question.

(iv)      The Parties acknowledge and agree that, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by each of Parent and the Stockholder Representatives, in its and their sole discretion, during the Earnout Periods, Parent will not cause to be operated through the Surviving Corporation any business other than the Business and such other activities, if any, conducted by the Surviving Corporation as of the Closing Date.

(v)       Parent will maintain or cause to be maintained separate or otherwise identifiable (e.g., in the case of a shared general ledger) books and records for the Surviving Corporation at all times during the Earnout Periods in a manner reasonably necessary for the financial statements of the Surviving Corporation to be prepared in accordance with GAAP (and in a manner consistent with the Accounting Policies).

(h)       Acceleration of Earnout Payments. Upon the occurrence of an Acceleration Event at any time prior to the end of the Second Earnout Period, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, automatically and without any further action on the part of Parent, Stockholders Representatives, or any Company Stockholder, the maximum aggregate $3 million amount of Earnout Payments, less any Earnout Payments already paid, will immediately become due and payable to the Constituents. For purposes of illustration only, if an Acceleration Event occurs in the First Earnout Period, then the $3 million

-9-

maximum earnout amount, less any amounts already paid in the First Earnout Period will be accelerated and payable by the Parent to the Constituents. Parent will give Stockholder Representatives written notice of the occurrence (i) of an Acceleration Event within 48 hours of the occurrence of such Acceleration Event and (ii) of the execution of a definitive agreement for a transaction described in the definition of Acceleration Event within 48 hours of the execution of such definitive agreement. Such accelerated Earnout Payments shall be paid to the Constituents within fifteen (15) days after the Acceleration Event, and as contemplated under Section 1.5.

(i)        Loss of Right to Earnout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the subsequently referenced employment agreements, the First Earnout Period Payment and Second Earnout Period Payment otherwise payable to each Constituents that is also a party to an employment agreement pursuant to Article VI hereof shall be permanently forfeited, and the total amount of such earnouts permanently reduced, as follows:

(i)        In the event any Constituent that is a party to an employment agreement pursuant to Article VI hereof shall be terminated for cause or resign without good reason (as such terms are defined in the respective employment agreement to which such Constituent is a party) prior to or on the last day of the First Earnout Period, the entire First Earnout Period Payment that would otherwise be payable to such Constituent shall be permanently forfeited in full and the total First Earnout Period Payment payable to all Constituents shall be reduced by such amount.

(ii)       In the event any Constituent that is a party to an employment agreement pursuant to Article VI hereof shall be terminated for cause or resign without good reason (as such terms are defined in the respective employment agreement to which such Constituent is a party) prior to or on the last day of the Second Earnout Period, the entire Second Earnout Period Payment that would otherwise be payable to such Constituent shall be permanently forfeited in full and the total Second Earnout Period Payment payable to all Constituents shall be reduced by such amount.

1.8 Dissenting Shares.

(a)       Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive any portion of the Aggregate Transaction Consideration unless such Company Stockholder shall have forfeited his, her or its right to appraisal under the MGCL or properly withdrawn his, her or its demand for appraisal. Until such time, any portion of the Aggregate Transaction Consideration that would have otherwise been payable to such Company Stockholder shall be held in a separate bank account maintained by the Parent (the “Dissenting Share Consideration”). If such Company Stockholder has so forfeited or withdrawn his, her or its right to appraisal of Dissenting Shares, then, (i) as of the occurrence of such event, such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall cease to be Dissenting Shares and shall be converted into and represent the right to receive the Aggregate Transaction Consideration payable in respect of such Company Shares pursuant to Section 1.5, and (ii) promptly following the occurrence of such event, the Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall deliver to such Company Stockholder, a payment representing the Closing Amount to which such holder is entitled pursuant to

-10-

Section 1.5. Unless otherwise paid to a dissenting Company Stockholder as set forth herein, the Dissenting Share Consideration shall remain the property of the Parent.

(b)       The Company shall give the Parent (i) prompt notice, but in no event later than two (2) days, of any written demands for appraisal of any Company Shares, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments that relate to such demands received by the Company and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the MGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of Company Shares or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

(c)       In the event the Parent becomes obligated to make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of Company Shares, such payment shall be satisfied first by payment of the Dissenting Share Consideration to the dissenting Company Stockholders. For amounts payable to such Dissenting Company Stockholders in excess of the Dissenting Share Consideration, the Parent shall seek such payment (i) from any amounts of the Aggregate Transaction Consideration payable to the Constituents hereunder (including, but not limited to, the Escrow Amount), whether by right of setoff or otherwise, or (ii) if amounts payable hereunder are not sufficient, upon demand by the Parent, from the Indemnifying Stockholders.

1.9 Escrow.

(a)       Escrow Amount to Secure Obligations. On the Closing Date, the Parent or the Merger Sub shall deposit with the Escrow Agent the Escrow Amount. The Escrow Amount shall represent a source of funds to secure the Constituents’ and the Indemnifying Stockholders’ obligations hereunder to the extent the Escrow Amount has not been reduced by operation of Section 1.6, Section 1.8, this Section 1.9 and Articles VII and VIII hereof or in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Amount shall be held by the Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof. Subject to the release provisions of this Section 1.9, the Escrow Amount shall be held as a trust fund and shall not be subject to any lien, attachment trustee process or any other judicial process of any creditor of any party, and shall be held and disbursed solely for the purposes and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(b) Release of Escrow Amount to Constituents.

(i)        $1,500,000, or such lesser balance of the Escrow Amount as may then exist, shall be released to the Constituents upon the Company or Surviving Corporation obtaining all of the consents, releases and waivers set forth in Section 1.9(b)(i) of the Disclosure Schedule.

(ii)       Within thirty (30) days after each AR Measuring Date, a portion of the Escrow Amount shall be released in accordance with the following formula:

X = (A / B) * Y

Where:

-11-

X = the amount of the Escrow Amount to be released.

A = the Closing Accounts Receivable collected during the period beginning on the first day after the previous AR Measuring Date and ending on the AR Measuring Date (or, with respect to the first AR Measuring Date, the period beginning on the first day after the Closing Date and ending on the first AR Measuring Date).

B = the total Closing Accounts Receivable.

Y = the lesser of $1,500,000 or the Escrow Amount then remaining in the Escrow Account.

“AR Measuring Date” means the last Business Day of each calendar month after the Closing.

(c)       A portion of the Escrow Amount may be released to the Parent in accordance with Section 1.9(c) of the Disclosure Schedule.

(d)       In accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, a portion of the Escrow Amount equal to the amount of any fees, costs or expenses to Parent or its Affiliates in connection with Parent’s performance under the Registration Rights Agreement shall be released to Parent if and when such fees, costs or expenses are incurred.

(e)       The remaining balance of the Escrow Amount will be released to the Constituents promptly after January 1, 2011 and after any remaining releases of the Escrow Amount that may be due to the Parent are calculated pursuant to Section 1.9(c), 1.9(d), Article VII and Article VIII.

(f)        Any amounts released from the Escrow Account shall be paid to the Constituents in accordance with Section 1.5.

(g)       The adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger by the Company Stockholders shall constitute approval of the Escrow Agreement and of all of the arrangements relating thereto, including the placement of the Escrow Amount in escrow and the appointment of the Stockholder Representatives to act on behalf of the Constituents.

(h)       Whenever any portion of the Escrow Amount is to be released to one or more Constituents, the Stockholder Representatives shall provide to Parent, certified in writing by each of the Stockholder Representatives (“Payment Information Certificate”), a schedule specifying the name, address and taxpayer identification number for each such Constituent and the exact amount and type of Escrow Amount to be disbursed to each such Constituent (“Payment Information”). The preparation of the Payment Information Certificate and the accuracy of the Payment Information set forth thereon shall be the sole and exclusive responsibility of the Stockholder Representatives; provided, however, that Parent shall have the right to review and approve such Payment Information Certificate and Payment Information, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

-12-

1.10 Articles of Incorporation and By-laws.

(a)       The Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time shall be the same as the Articles of Incorporation of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b)       The By-laws of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time shall be the same as the By-laws of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time.

1.11     No Further Rights. From and after the Effective Time, no Company Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding, and holders of certificates formerly representing Company Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto except as provided herein or by law.

1.12 Stockholder Releases.

(a)       Except as set forth in Section 1.12 of the Disclosure Schedule, effective as of the Closing, each Indemnifying Stockholder agrees not to sue and fully releases and discharges the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Parent and their respective stockholders, directors, officers, assigns and successors, past and present (collectively, “Releasees”), with respect to and from any and all claims, issuances of the Company’s stock, notes or other securities, any demands, rights, liens, contracts, covenants, proceedings, causes of action, obligations, debts, and losses of whatever kind or nature in law, equity or otherwise, whether now known or unknown, and whether or not concealed or hidden, all of which each Indemnifying Stockholder now owns or holds or has at any time owned or held against Releasees connected with or relating to any matter occurring on or prior to the Closing Date. Nothing in this Section 1.12 will be deemed to constitute a release by any Indemnifying Stockholder of any right of such Indemnifying Stockholder under this Agreement or any right to receive compensation or benefits under employee benefit plans attributable to the periods prior to the Closing Date.

(b)       It is the intention of each Indemnifying Stockholder that such release be effective as a bar to each and every claim, demand and cause of action hereinabove specified.

1.13     Company Closing Expenses. At the Closing, subject to Section 5.7, Parent shall cause the payment of the Company Closing Expenses directly to those Persons designated in writing on Section 1.13 of the Disclosure Schedule as being entitled thereto. As soon as reasonably practicable prior to the Closing, the Stockholder Representatives shall designate in writing the amounts payable to such Persons as Company Closing Expenses. The Company and the Stockholder Representatives hereby represent and warrant that there will be no other Company Closing Expenses.

1.14 Appointment of Stockholder Representatives.

(a)       Upon the approval of the Merger by the Company Stockholders in accordance with the MGCL, the Company Stockholders will irrevocably make, constitute and appoint up to two representatives to act as the Company Stockholders’ representatives and agents for all purposes under this Agreement (collectively, the “Stockholder Representatives”). In

-13-

addition, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall obtain an Option Termination Agreement from each holder of an Option which shall designate and appoint the duly elected Stockholder Representatives (or their successors) as each such holder’s duly appointed Stockholder Representative for all purposes under this Agreement. Upon election of the Stockholder Representatives and upon receipt of the Option Termination Agreement, the Stockholder Representatives will be authorized to execute on behalf of each Constituent any and all documents and agreements referred to herein upon the Closing.

(b)       Should either Stockholder Representative or both Stockholder Representatives resign or be unable to serve, the Constituents having received a majority of the Aggregate Transaction Consideration distributed as of the latest Payment Date shall appoint a single substitute agent to take on the responsibilities of such Stockholder Representative or Stockholder Representatives, whose appointment shall be effective on the date of the prior Stockholders Representative’s resignation or incapacity.

(c)       By way of illustration only, and without limitation, the Stockholder Representatives shall have the authority to (i) execute on behalf of each Constituent, as fully as if the Constituents were acting on their own behalf, any and all documents and agreements referred to herein, including executing this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement as the Constituents’ representative, (ii) give and receive notice or instructions permitted or required under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, (iii) authorize the release of the amounts held in the Escrow Fund to pay any Claimed Amount, Closing Amount Adjustment or any other amounts payable out of the Escrow Fund in accordance with this Agreement or (iv) to undertake any actions with respect to the resolution of a Dispute or any disagreement with respect to the amount of any Earnout Payment, including partaking in any dispute resolution process.

(d)       Any notice, direction or communication received by Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation from the Stockholder Representatives, or delivered to the Stockholder Representatives by Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation, shall be binding upon the Constituents, and each of them. The Stockholder Representatives shall act in all matters on behalf of the Constituents and Parent and Merger Sub and, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to rely on the actions of the Stockholder Representatives hereunder acting in concert or alone as the actions of the Constituents. Any single Stockholder Representative shall have the authority to bind the Stockholder Representatives as a group and the Parent and its Affiliates shall be entitled to rely on any and all documents signed by any one or more Stockholder Representatives. Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation may deliver notices and communications to the Constituents hereunder through the Stockholder Representatives at the address set forth in this Agreement for notices, and such delivery shall be deemed to have been made to any or all of the Constituents. None of Parent, Merger Sub nor the Surviving Company shall pay any costs or expenses incurred by the Stockholder Representatives in carrying out their obligations hereunder. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation consents to the appointment of the Stockholder Representatives to act as described hereunder.

For purposes of clarity, “severally, and not jointly” as used in the immediately preceding sentence shall relate only to the respective liability of the Indemnifying Stockholders and shall in no way prohibit Parent from joining all Indemnifying Stockholders in a single proceeding to seek indemnification hereunder. In addition to the foregoing, and not by way of limitation, the Parent’s right to indemnification hereunder shall not be affected by (i) any investigation conducted by Parent or any of its Affiliates; or (ii) any disclosures in the Disclosure Schedule that are referenced in Section 7.1 to the Disclosure Schedule.

7.3 Indemnification Claims.

-49-

(a)       Notice of Third Party Actions. An Indemnified Party shall give written notification to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any Third Party Action. Such notification shall be given within twenty (20) days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third Party Action, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Action and the amount of the claimed Damages; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure.

(b)       Indemnification by the Constituents of Third Party Actions. The obligations and liabilities of the Constituents with respect to a Third Party Action for which the Parent is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII will be subject to the following terms and conditions. The Parent will have the right (including the selection of counsel) to defend against, direct the defense of, or settle any such Third Party Action and any related Legal Proceeding, but the Stockholder Representatives must reasonably cooperate in the defense thereof. In connection therewith, the Parent agrees (i) to keep the Stockholder Representatives reasonably informed of its defense and resolution of the Third Party Action, (ii) to report to the Stockholder Representatives in writing, at least quarterly, as to the amount of Damages (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred as of the date of such report, and (iii) that it will make reasonable judgments with respect to incurring costs and expenses (including the selection of outside counsel) in a similar matter and based on similar factors as it does for similar third party claims for which it has no claim against the Constituents for indemnification. No compromise, discharge or settlement of, or admission of liability in connection with, such claims may be effected by the Parent without the written consent of the Stockholder Representatives (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless the Parent has waived any right to indemnification therefor by the Constituents. So long as the Parent is conducting the defense of the Third Party Action in accordance with clause (ii) of this Section 7.3(b), the Stockholder Representatives may retain separate co-counsel at their sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Action.

(c)       Indemnification by the Parent of Third Party Actions. The obligations and liabilities of Parent hereunder with respect to a Third Party Action for which the Constituents are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII will be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i)        The Parent will have the right, but not the obligation, to defend against and to direct the defense of any such Third Party Action and any related Legal Proceeding at the Parent’s sole cost and expense and with counsel of Parent’s choosing (subject to the approval of the Stockholder Representatives, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Stockholder Representatives will reasonably cooperate in the defense thereof. The Stockholder Representatives may participate in such defense with counsel of their own choosing, provided that the Parent will not, following written notice of its election to defend against and direct the defense of any such Third Party Action, be liable to the Constituents under this Article VII for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Legal Proceeding incurred by the Constituents in connection with the defense of such Legal Proceeding unless the Constituents are also a party to such Third Party Action and the

-50-

Stockholder Representatives determine in good faith that Constituents have available to them one or more defenses or counterclaims that are inconsistent with those of the Parent. If the Parent assumes the defense of a Third Party Action, no compromise, discharge or settlement of, or admission of liability in connection with, such claims may be effected by the Parent without the written consent of the Stockholder Representatives (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless (x) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Constituents, and (y) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Parent. The Parent will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii)       Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.3(c)(i) of this Agreement, if the Parent fails or refuses to undertake the defense of such Third Party Action within fourteen (14) days after delivery of written notification to the Parent of the commencement of such Third Party Action or if the Parent later withdraws from such defense, the Stockholder Representatives will have the right to undertake the defense of such claim with counsel of their own choosing, with the Parent responsible for the costs and expenses of such defense and bound by any determination made in such Third Party Action or any compromise or settlement effected by the Constituents.

(d)       In order to seek indemnification under this Article VII, an Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party is the Parent and is seeking to enforce such claim pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver a copy of the Claim Notice to the Escrow Agent.

(e)       Within 20 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a Response, in which the Indemnifying Party shall either: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount (in which case the Response shall be accompanied by a payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Claimed Amount, by check or by wire transfer, provided that if the Indemnified Party is the Parent and is seeking to enforce such claim pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, within three (3) days following the delivery of the Response, a written notice executed by both parties instructing the Escrow Agent to release the Claimed Amount to the Parent from the Escrow Amount); (ii) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive the Agreed Amount (in which case the Response shall be accompanied by a payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Agreed Amount, by check or by wire transfer, provided that if the Indemnified Party is the Parent and is seeking to enforce such claim pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, within three (3) days following the delivery of the Response, a written notice executed by both parties instructing the Escrow Agent to release the Claimed Amount to the Parent from the Escrow Amount); or (iii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount.

(f)        During the 30-day period following the delivery of a Response that reflects a Dispute, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use good faith efforts

-51-

to resolve the Dispute. If the Dispute is not resolved within such 30-day period, such Dispute shall be settled by final, binding arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., in accordance with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in effect at such time, which will be the sole and exclusive procedures for any such disagreement. The arbitration will be heard before a sole neutral arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party. If such Parties cannot agree upon such an arbitrator within ten (10) Business Days after the date referenced in the first sentence of this subsection (iii), AAA will appoint an arbitrator with expertise in the general industry of the business engaged in by the Surviving Corporation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the arbitrator will have no authority to award any special, punitive, exemplary, consequential, incidental or indirect losses or Damages. Judgment upon any award granted in a proceeding brought pursuant to this subsection (f) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the Indemnified Party is the Parent and is seeking to enforce the claim that is the subject of the Dispute pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, promptly following resolution of the Dispute (whether by mutual agreement, arbitral decision or otherwise), a written notice executed by both parties instructing the Escrow Agent as to what (if any) portion of the Escrow Amount shall be released to the Parent and/or the Indemnifying Stockholders (which notice shall be consistent with the terms of the resolution of the Dispute). All arbitration proceedings will take place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, unless the Dispute or a portion thereof relates to or involves (i) a contract or agreement to which consents, releases and/or waivers are required to be obtained pursuant to Section 1.9(b)(i) of this Agreement, or (ii) the Parent’s right to indemnification pursuant to the last sentence of Section 7.1(g), in which case the arbitration proceedings will take place in Orange County, California. Should it become necessary to resort or respond to court proceedings to enforce a Party’s compliance with Article VII, such proceedings will be brought only in the federal or state courts located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania or Orange County, California, as applicable (determined based on the nature of and corresponding location for arbitration of the Dispute in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence), which will have exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any disputes with respect to Article VII, with each Party irrevocably consenting to the jurisdiction thereof.

Each Indemnified Party (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) agrees to make good faith, commercially reasonably efforts to obtain all such insurance proceeds available to it; provided, however, that no claim for indemnification shall be conditioned upon the final resolution of such insurance claim – the proceeds of such claim to be paid back to the Indemnifying Party if collected after the payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party concerning such claim.

(d)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no claim for indemnity under this Agreement may be made to the extent such claim relates to amounts that are accrued for as current liabilities on the Final Balance Sheet as determined by the parties pursuant to Section 1.6.

(e)       In no event shall Parent’s aggregate indemnity obligation for a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.7 exceed $2,750,000.

(f)        The remedies set forth in this Article VII shall be the exclusive remedy of the Parties with respect to the matters set forth in this Article VII.

-54-

the part of any Indemnifying Stockholder, with respect to which claims the Parent and its Affiliates reserve any and all rights and remedies to which they may be entitled at law or in equity; provided, however, that Parent’s right to recovery under this Section 7.6(g) shall be limited to (i) recovery from the Escrow Amount, (ii) a right to set off against any amounts payable to the Constituents hereunder, including, without limitation, any additional consideration payable under Sections 1.6 and 1.7 of this Agreement and (iii) recovery directly from the Indemnifying Stockholders up to an amount equal to the final Adjusted Aggregate Payment Amount received and to be received by the Indemnifying Stockholders hereunder, but, as to each individual Indemnifying Stockholder in no event shall such amount be more than such Indemnifying Stockholder’s Total Share of such damages. For purposes of the immediately preceding subsection (iii), any Parent Shares received by the Indemnifying Stockholders hereunder, whether or not then held by such Indemnifying Stockholder, shall be valued using the Share Valuation Method.
