Item 5. Other Events.
Medical Manager Corporation (the "Company") has received notice of a
lawsuit which was purportedly filed against the Company and certain of its
officers and directors, among other parties, on October 23, 1998 in the United
States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. The lawsuit, styled
George Ehlert, et al. vs. Michael A. Singer, et al., purports to bring an action
on behalf of the plaintiffs and others similarly situated to recover damages for
alleged violations of the federal securities laws arising out of the Company's
issuance of allegedly materially false and misleading statements concerning its
business operations, including the development and sale of its principal
product, The Medical Manager(R) practice management system, during the class
period. The class period is alleged to be between April 23, 1998 and August 5,
1998. The lawsuit seeks, among other things, compensatory damages in favor of
the plaintiffs and the other purported class members and reasonable costs and
expenses. The Company believes that this lawsuit is without merit and intends to
vigorously defend against it.
