ARTICLE VIII.
INDEMNIFICATION
---------------
8.1. AGREEMENT BY EACH OF THE COMPANIES AND THE SHAREHOLDER FOR
INDEMNIFICATION Each of the Companies and the Shareholder jointly and severally
agree to indemnify and hold Medical Manager Northeast and its stockholders,
directors, officers, employees, attorneys and Affiliates harmless from and
against, and, at Medical Manager Northeast's election, in its sole discretion,
Medical Manager Northeast shall be entitled to recover by set off against the
Held Back Shares in accordance with SECTION 8.3, the aggregate of all expenses,
losses, costs, deficiencies, liabilities and damages (including, without
limitation, related counsel and paralegal fees and expenses) incurred or
suffered by Medical Manager Northeast arising out of or resulting from (i) any
breach of a representation or warranty made by each of the Companies or the
Shareholder in or pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) any breach of the covenants
or agreements made by each of the Companies or the Shareholder in or pursuant to
this Agreement or (iii) any inaccuracy in any certificate, instrument or other
document delivered by each of the Companies or the Shareholder as required by
this Agreement and (iv) any transfer taxes that may be due and owing to any
Governmental Authority (collectively, "Indemnifiable Damages"). Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, with respect to the measurement of
Indemnifiable Damages, Medical Manager Northeast shall have the right to be put
in the same pre-tax consolidated financial position as it would have been in had
each of the representations and warranties of each of the Companies and the
Shareholder hereunder been true and correct and had the agreements of each of
the Companies and the Shareholder hereunder been performed in full.
8.2. AGREEMENT BY MEDICAL MANAGER NORTHEAST FOR INDEMNIFICATION Medical
Manager Northeast agrees to indemnify and hold each of the Companies, and its
stockholders, directors, officers, employees, attorneys and affiliates harmless

<PAGE> 35
8.3. LIMITATIONS Anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement
notwithstanding, no indemnification under this Article 8 shall be made against
the Companies and/or the Shareholder in favor of Medical Manager Northeast or
Medical Manager Corporation unless all claims for such indemnification exceed in
the aggregate $25,000 and the obligation of Companies and/or Shareholder to
indemnify Medical Manager Northeast or Medical Manager Corporation under this
Article 8 shall be extinguished upon the payment of an amount in the aggregate
equal to the Purchase Price. The amount of any indemnification required to be
paid by the Companies and/or the Shareholder to Medical Manager Northeast or
Medical Manager Corporation hereunder shall be net of any insurance proceeds
received by Medical Manager Northeast or Medical Manager Corporation in
connection with the facts giving rise to the right to indemnification.
8.4. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES Each of the
representations and warranties made by each of the Companies, the Shareholder
and Medical Manager Northeast in this Agreement or pursuant hereto shall survive
for a period of one year after the Closing Date. No claim for the recovery of

and warranties shall thus expire; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that claims for
Indemnifiable Damages first asserted within the applicable period shall not
thereafter be barred. Notwithstanding any knowledge of facts determined or
determinable by any party by investigation, each party shall have the right to
fully rely on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the
other parties contained in this Agreement or in any other documents or papers
delivered in connection herewith. Each representation, warranty, covenant and
agreement of the parties contained in this Agreement is independent of each
other representation, warranty, covenant and agreement. Each of the
representations and warranties of Medical Manager Northeast shall expire on the
Closing Date.
8.5. SECURITY FOR INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION As security for the
indemnification obligations contained in this ARTICLE VIII, at the Closing,
Medical Manager Northeast shall set aside and hold, and each of the Companies
and the Shareholder hereby grant a security interest in the shares represented
by, the certificates representing the Held Back Shares issued pursuant to this
Agreement. Medical Manager Northeast may set off against the Held Back Shares
any loss, damage, cost or expense for which each of the Companies or the
Shareholder may be responsible pursuant to this Agreement (including without
limitation, any Indemnifiable Damages) whether or not indemnified pursuant to
this ARTICLE VIII, subject, however, to the following terms and conditions:
(a) Medical Manager Northeast shall give written notice to
each of the Companies of any claim for Indemnifiable Damages or any
other damages hereunder, which notice shall set forth (i) the amount of
Indemnifiable Damages or other loss, damage, cost or expense which
Medical Manager Northeast claims to have sustained by reason thereof,
and (ii) the basis of such claim;
(b) Such set off shall be effected on the later to occur on
the expiration of 10 days from the date of such notice (the "Notice of
Contest Period") or, if such claim is
39
<PAGE> 36
contested, the date the dispute is resolved, and such set off shall be
charged proportionally against the shares set aside;
(c) After any restrictions on sale of the Held Back Shares
imposed under the Securities Act or otherwise are terminated, each of
the Companies may, not more than once during any calendar year,
instruct Medical Manager Northeast to sell some or all of the Held Back
Shares and the net proceeds thereof shall be substituted for such Held
Back Shares in any set off to be made by Medical Manager Northeast
pursuant to any claim hereunder subject to continued compliance with
any applicable SEC and other regulations; and
(d) For purposes of any set off against the Held Back Shares
pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, the shares of Medical Manager Common
Stock not sold as provided in clause (c) of this Section shall be
valued at the Average Closing Sale Price.
8.6. VOTING OF AND DIVIDENDS ON THE HELD BACK SHARES Except with
respect to shares transferred pursuant to the foregoing right of set off (and in
the case of such shares, until the same are transferred), all Held Back Shares
shall be deemed to be owned by each of the Companies and each of the Companies
shall be entitled to vote the Held Back Shares; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, there
shall also be deposited with Medical Manager Northeast subject to the terms of
this ARTICLE VIII, all shares of Medical Manager Common Stock issued to each of
the Companies as a result of any stock dividend or stock split and all cash
issuable to each of the Companies as a result of any cash dividend, with respect
to the Held Back Shares. All stock and cash issued or paid upon Held Back Shares
shall be distributed to the person or entity entitled to receive such Held Back
Shares together with such Held Back Shares.
8.7. DELIVERY OF HELD BACK SHARES Medical Manager Northeast agrees to
deliver to each of the Companies no later than one year after the Closing Date
any Held Back Shares then held by it (or proceeds from the Held Back Shares)
unless there then remains unresolved any claim for Indemnifiable Damages or
other damages hereunder as to which notice has been given, in which event any
Held Back Shares remaining on deposit (or proceeds from the sale of Held Back
Shares) after such claim shall have been satisfied shall be returned to each of
the Companies promptly after the time of satisfaction.
8.8. ADJUSTMENT TO PURCHASE PRICE All payments for Indemnifiable
Damages made pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII shall be treated as adjustments to
the Purchase Price.
8.9. NO BAR If the Held Back Shares are insufficient to set off any
claim for Indemnifiable Damages made hereunder (or have been delivered to each
of the Companies prior to the making or resolution of such claim), then Medical
Manager Northeast may take any action or exercise any remedy available to it by
appropriate legal proceedings to collect the Indemnifiable Damages.
8.10. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE The remedies provided herein shall be
cumulative and shall not preclude Medical Manager Northeast from asserting any
other right, or seeking any other remedies against the Shareholder or each of
the Companies.
