ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On July 1, 1999, HealthCore Medical Solutions, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("HealthCore"), and Adatom, Inc., a privately held California
corporation ("Adatom"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Merger Agreement"), under which Adatom will be merged with and into HealthCore
(the "Merger"), with HealthCore being the surviving corporation under the name
Adatom.com, Inc. (the "Surviving Corporation"). All existing Class A common
stock and warrants of HealthCore will remain outstanding. The Class B common
stock of HealthCore will be eliminated and the Class A common stock of
HealthCore will be retitled as common stock. Adatom stockholders will receive
common stock of the Surviving Corporation representing approximately 77.5% of
the Surviving Corporation subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The
Merger is expected to be a tax-free reorganization under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended.
Consummation of the Merger is subject to a number of conditions
including, without limitation, approval of the Merger by the stockholders of
HealthCore and Adatom, and sale or liquidation of the healthcare discount
benefits business operated by HealthCore.
To satisfy the condition to consummation of the Merger that HealthCore
liquidate or sell its healthcare discount benefits business, on July 28, 1999
HealthCore sold certain of its assets related to its discount healthcare
business to Randolph & Associates, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Randolph") and
discontinued the operation of its healthcare discount benefits business. The
assets sold included membership contracts, network access agreements, broker
contracts, a computer hardware lease, certain other miscellaneous contracts,
furniture and fixtures, software and trade names. Randolph agreed to assume
performance of HealthCore's obligations under the assigned contracts as of
August 1, 1999. The purchase price for the purchase of the assets was $4,090.64
in cash, the assumption of a computer hardware lease for $45,909.36 and the
assumption of HealthCore's obligations under the other assigned contracts
arising on or after August 1, 1999 together with all refund obligations due
Members requested on or after August 1, 1999 (regardless of the date(s) to which
such refunds relate). The sale was made pursuant to the terms and conditions of
an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of July 28, 1999 between HealthCore and
Randolph, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by
reference thereto. The press release issued by HealthCore with respect to the
sale is included as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.

Agreement and the Press Release are qualified in their entirety by reference to

standing under the laws of the State of Texas.

instruments of Buyer being delivered hereunder represent, legal, valid and
binding obligations of Buyer, enforceable against it in accordance with their
respective terms.
(c) Neither this Agreement nor any of agreements or instruments
referred to herein to be executed by Buyer will conflict with, result in a
material breach or constitute a material default of any contract to which Buyer

imposition of any mortgage, lien, charge or encumbrance on any of its assets.

net worth as of such date of greater than $500,000. Buyer has the business
capability and organizational infrastructure to fulfill the Seller's obligations

any covenant or agreement of the other party herein contained.

<PAGE>
(c) Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from
and against any and all demands, claims, causes of action, assessments, losses,
damages, liabilities, interest and penalties, costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees), resulting from, arising out of,

Buyer under Section 4.
(d) Within ten (10) days after receipt by either party of notice of
any demand, claim or circumstances which, with the lapse of time or notice,
would give rise to a claim or the commencement (or threatened commencement) of
any action, proceeding or investigation that may result in a loss or limitation
of any rights or benefits conveyed to either Buyer or Seller hereunder, such
party shall give notice thereof to the other party in the manner prescribed in
this Section 9(d). The notice shall describe the asserted liability in
reasonable detail, and shall indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary) or

obligations hereunder.
(e) The party from which indemnity is requested may elect to

against, such asserted liability. If the indemnifying party elects not to
compromise or defend the asserted liability, or fails to notify said party of
its election as herein provided or contests its obligation to indemnify under

defend such asserted liability. If the indemnifying party chooses to defend any
claim, the other party shall make available to the indemnifying party any
witnesses, books, records or other documents within its control that are
necessary, appropriate or desirable for such defense. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, without the express written consent of the party
requesting indemnification, the indemnifying party shall not compromise any
asserted liability that would include or constitute an admission of wrongdoing
by the party requesting indemnification or that would limit or restrict its
right to conduct or to continue to conduct any business or enterprise in any
part of the world.

HealthCore's Discount Card Business Sold to Randolph & Associates
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Grandview, Missouri...HealthCore Medical Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: HMSI)
announced that it has sold certain assets related to its discount healthcare
business to Randolph & Associates, Inc. based in Dallas, subject to the
assumption of certain liabilities including membership contracts, network access
agreements, broker contracts, computer hardware lease and obligations under
certain other assigned contracts, including all refunds, if any, to members
requested after August 1, 1999. Upon the sale of the assets, HealthCore has
discontinued the operation of its healthcare discount business. On July 1,
HealthCore had announced the execution of a definitive merger agreement with
Adatom, Inc., a California-based Internet superstore and e-commerce company
(www.adatom.com). Adatom is developing and implementing a business model that in
addition to its superstore includes backend fulfillment for other e-commerce
sites. Under the terms of the merger, Adatom stockholders will receive common
stock of HMSI representing approximately 77.5% of the company subject to
adjustment in certain circumstances, including a failure to meet cash assets (as
defined in the merger agreement) of at least $2,850,000. The sale of the assets
and the related discontinuance of the healthcare discount business are
conditions to closing of the merger with Adatom, Inc. The Adatom merger is
expected to close at the end of the third quarter of 1999.
The HealthCore Board of Directors has deemed the sale to be in the best
interests of the corporation as it will satisfy a condition to closing of the
merger with Adatom and will preserve cash assets of the corporation thereby
reducing the likelihood of an adjustment, which would result in an increase in
the number of shares issued to Adatom shareholders. Since 1997 HealthCore
developed and marketed discount cards entitling members to discounts on major
medical, ancillary healthcare services and retail consumer purchases. Randolph &
Associates has been in the insurance business for 10 years.
