Item 1.  Business

General

         Magellan Health Services, Inc. (the "Company") (formerly Charter
Medical Corporation) ,  which was incorporated in 1969, is a behavioral
healthcare company. As of September 30, 1995, the Company operated 98 acute 
care psychiatric  hospitals  and four  residential  treatment centers with an 
aggregate  capacity of 8,939 licensed beds.  Ninety-three of the Company's 
hospitals operate partial  hospitalization  programs,  and the Company operates
144 outpatient centers, staffed by mental health professionals. In this report,
the Company uses the term  "psychiatric  hospitals" or  "hospitals"  to refer 
to the 98 facilities licensed as acute care psychiatric  hospitals and the four
facilities  licensed  as  residential  treatment  centers.  A  residential 
treatment  center offers less intensive and longer stay services than acute 
care psychiatric hospitals.

         The  Company's  business  strategy  is to  develop  and  operate  fully
integrated behavioral healthcare delivery systems in certain markets in which it
presently  operates one or more hospitals and in selected other markets in which
the Company does not presently operate a hospital. The fully integrated delivery
systems that the Company is developing offer a comprehensive range of behavioral
healthcare   services   including   inpatient   treatment,   day   and   partial
hospitalization services, group and individual outpatient treatment, residential
treatment programs and other less intensive behavioral healthcare services.  The
Company is  establishing  such  systems by using its  hospitals as a base and by
arranging for other services  through  acquisitions,  contracts or  affiliations
with physicians,  psychologists  and other mental health  professionals  and, in
some  markets,  with  general  acute  care  hospitals  and  other  institutional
healthcare providers.

Recent Developments

         Green Spring Health Services Acquisition

         On December 13, 1995, the Company acquired a 51% ownership  interest in
Green Spring Health  Services,  Inc. ("Green  Spring") for  approximately  $73.2
million  in cash  and  Common  Stock  and the  contribution  of  Group  Practice
Affiliates  ("GPA"),  a  wholly-owned Magellan   subsidiary,   which  became  a
wholly-owned  subsidiary of Green  Spring.  GPA was organized by the Company for
the purpose of  acquiring  and managing  professional  group  practices  and has
acquired five group  practices  through  September  30, 1995.  Green Spring is a
leading  provider of managed  behavioral  healthcare  services,  which  includes
utilization management, care management and employee assistance programs through
a 50-state provider network for approximately 12 million people nationwide.

         The  Green  Spring  acquisition  creates  the  first  fully  integrated
national  behavioral  healthcare  system and gives the Company the capability to
provide case management and delivery services to large private organizations and
a public sector marketplace seeking  increased  privatization of services.  The
Company changed its name to Magellan Health Services,  Inc. on December 21, 1995
to reflect  the  broader  range of services it expects to provide as a result of
the Green Spring acquisition.

         The Company will operate its integrated national behavioral  healthcare
system through three principal subsidiaries beginning in fiscal 1996 engaging in
(i) the  provider  business,  (ii) the managed  care  business and (iii) the
public sector business.  Each principal subsidiary will operate autonomously and
enter into contractual arrangements with the other subsidiaries as necessary.

         The  minority  shareholders  of  Green  Spring  consist  of  four  Blue
Cross/Blue  Shield  organizations  (the "Blues") that are key customers of Green
Spring. In addition, two other Blues organizations that formerly owned a portion
of Green  Spring will  continue  as  customers  of Green  Spring.  The  minority
shareholders of Green Spring will have the option, under certain  circumstances,
to exchange their ownership interests ("exchange option") in Green Spring for


<PAGE>



approximately  3.6 million  shares of Magellan Common Stock or $81.8  million in
subordinated  notes.  The  Company  may elect to pay cash in lieu of issuing the
subordinated notes. The exchange option expires December 13, 1998.

         On December 20, 1995, the Company  acquired an additional 10% ownership
interest in Green Spring for approximately  $16.7 million in cash as a result of
an exchange  option  exercised by certain of the minority  shareholders of Green
Spring.  The Company has a 61% ownership  interest in Green Spring subsequent to
the exercise of the aforementioned exchange option.

         Fiscal 1994 and Prior Developments

NME Acquisition

         During  fiscal  1994,  the  Company  agreed to acquire  40  psychiatric
hospitals (the "Acquired  Hospitals")  from National Medical  Enterprises,  Inc.
("NME").  The purchase price for the Acquired Hospitals was approximately $120.4
million in cash plus an  additional  cash amount of  approximately  $51 million,
subject to  adjustment,  for the net working  capital of the Acquired  Hospitals
(the "Hospital  Acquisition".)  The Acquired Hospitals had an aggregate capacity
of 2,873  licensed beds when  acquired and were located in 19 states.  For their
fiscal  year ended May 31,  1994,  the  Acquired  Hospitals  had net  revenue of
approximately $315.1 million.

         On June 30,  1994,  the  Company  completed  the  purchase of 27 of the
Acquired  Hospitals for a cash purchase price of  approximately  $129.6 million,
which included approximately $39.3 million,  subject to adjustment,  for the net
working  capital of the facilities.  On October 31, 1994, the Company  completed
the purchase of three additional Acquired Hospitals for a cash purchase price of
approximately $5 million,  which included  approximately $2.2 million related to
the net working  capital of the  facilities.  On November 30, 1994,  the Company
completed  the  purchase of the  remaining  ten  Acquired  Hospitals  for a cash
purchase price of  approximately  $36.8 million,  including  approximately  $9.5
million related to the net working capital of the ten Acquired Hospitals. During
the year ended September 30, 1995, the Company received approximately $3.5 
million from NME as a partial  payment  related to the settlement of the 
working capital portion of the purchase price. The Company accounted for the 
Hospital Acquisition using the purchase method of accounting.

Debt Refinancing

         In  order  to  finance  the  Hospital   Acquisition  and  to  refinance
substantially all of the Company's  outstanding  long-term debt, on May 2, 1994,
the Company  entered into a Second  Amended and Restated  Credit  Agreement with
certain  financial  institutions  for a  five-year  reducing,  revolving  credit
facility in an aggregate committed amount of $300 million (the "Revolving Credit
Agreement")  and issued  $375  million of 11 1/4%  Series A Senior  Subordinated
Notes which  mature on April 15, 2004 (the  "Notes")  and are general  unsecured
obligations of the Company. (See Note 6 of the Company's  Consolidated Financial
Statements.)

Sale of General Hospitals

         On September  30,  1993,  the Company  sold its general  hospitals  and
related  assets to Quorum,  Inc. for  approximately  $338  million.  The Company
retained the assets and liabilities relating to these hospitals for professional
liability  claims  incurred  and cost report  settlements  for periods  prior to
September 30, 1993.

         For fiscal 1993, the general hospitals had net revenue of approximately
$347  million,  a net loss of  approximately  $15 million,  and  admissions  and
patient days of 39,669 and 205,843,  respectively. In 1993, the Company restated
its  consolidated  financial  statements  to  reflect  the sales of the  general
hospitals  and  its  interest  in  a  non-hospital  subsidiary  as  discontinued
operations.




<PAGE>



Financial Restructuring

         In its 1992 fiscal year, the Company  completed a restructuring  of its
debt and equity capitalization (the  "Restructuring")  pursuant to a prepackaged
plan of  reorganization  filed under Chapter 11 of the United States  Bankruptcy
Code (the "Plan"),  which became  effective on July 21, 1992. As a result of the
Restructuring,  the Company's  long-term debt was reduced by approximately  $700
million and its redeemable  preferred stock of $233 million was eliminated.  The
holders of the debt and preferred stock that were reduced or eliminated received
approximately 97% of the Company's common stock outstanding on July 21, 1992.

Psychiatric Hospital Operations

         The Company's  psychiatric hospitals in operation on September 30, 1995
are located in well-populated  urban and suburban locations in 32 states and two
foreign countries.  Five of the Company's  hospitals are affiliated with medical
schools for residency and other post-graduate teaching programs.

         Most of the Company's  hospitals  offer a full  continuum of behavioral
care in their service area. The continuum  includes  inpatient  hospitalization,
partial  hospitalization,  intensive  outpatient  services and, in some markets,
residential treatment services.

         The Company's  hospitals  provide  structured  and intensive  treatment
programs  for  mental  health  and  alcohol  and drug  dependency  disorders  in
children,  adolescents and adults.  The  specialization  of programs enables the
clinical  staff to provide  care that is  specific  to the  patient's  needs and
facilitates  monitoring the patient's  progress.  A typical treatment program of
the Company  integrates  physicians and other  patient-care  professionals  with
structured  activities,  providing patients with testing,  adjunctive  therapies
(occupational,  recreational and other),  group therapy,  individual therapy and
educational  programs.  A treatment program includes one or more of the types of
treatment  settings  provided  by the  Company's  continuum  of care.  For those
patients  who do not  have a  personal  psychiatrist  or other  specialist,  the
hospital refers the patient to a member of its medical staff.

         A significant  portion of hospital admissions are provided by referrals
from former patients, local marketplace advertising,  managed care organizations
and physician referrals.  Professional  relationships are an important aspect of
the Company's ongoing business. Management believes the quality of the Company's
treatment  programs,  staff  employees  and physical  facilities  are  important
factors in maintaining good professional relationships.

         The Company's hospitals work closely with mental health  professionals,
non-psychiatric physicians,  emergency rooms and community agencies that come in
contact with  individuals who may need treatment for mental illness or substance
abuse. A portion of the Company's  marketing  efforts is directed at increasing
general  awareness  of mental  health and  addictive  disease  and the  services
offered by the Company's hospitals.

Seasonality

         The Company's business is seasonal in nature, with a reduced demand for
certain  services  generally  occurring in the first fiscal quarter around major
holidays,  such as Thanksgiving  and Christmas, and during the summer months 
comprising the fourth fiscal quarter.

Related Businesses

         As part of the Company's business strategy during the past three fiscal
years,  the Company (i) acquired a company  that  develops  information  systems
relating to the financing and delivery of behavioral  healthcare services,  (ii)
acquired  a  company  that  provides  outpatient   treatment  for  schizophrenia
patients, and (iii) acquired a company that provides specialized health services
in mentor homes.  To date,  the activities of these  subsidiaries  have not been
material to the Company.

         During fiscal 1995, the Company sold the following facilities:

Virginia Beach, VA        61-bed psychiatric hospital         December 1994
</TABLE>

         In  addition,  the  Company  leases,  with  options to  purchase by the
lessees, three facilities which it previously operated prior to fiscal 1991. The
Company  is also  attempting  to sell or  lease  11  other  previously  operated
hospitals  and related  medical  office  buildings and certain  unimproved  real
estate.

Competition

         Each of the Company's hospitals competes with other hospitals,  some of
which are larger and have greater financial resources.  Some competing hospitals
are  owned  and  operated  by   governmental   agencies,   others  by  nonprofit
organizations supported by endowments and charitable contributions and others by
proprietary hospital  corporations.  The hospitals frequently draw patients from
areas outside their immediate  locale and,  therefore,  the Company's  hospitals
may,  in certain  markets,  compete  with both local and distant  hospitals.  In
addition,  the  Company's  hospitals  compete  not only with  other  psychiatric
hospitals,  but also with psychiatric units in general hospitals, and outpatient
services  provided by the Company may compete  with  private  practicing  mental
health  professionals.   The  competitive  position  of  a  hospital  is,  to  a
significant  degree,  dependent  upon the number and quality of  physicians  who
practice at the hospital and who are members of its medical  staff.  The Company
has entered into joint venture  arrangements with other healthcare  providers in
certain markets to promote more efficiency in the local delivery system.

         In  recent  years,  the  competitive  position  of  hospitals  has been
affected by the ability of such  hospitals to obtain  contracts  with  Preferred
Provider Organizations ("PPO's"), Health Maintenance Organizations ("HMO's") and
other  managed  care  programs to provide  inpatient  and other  services.  Such
contracts normally involve a discount from the hospital's  established  charges,
but provide a base of patient referrals. These contracts also frequently provide
for pre-admission  certification and for concurrent length of stay reviews.  The
importance  of  obtaining  contracts  with HMO's,  PPO's and other  managed care
companies  varies  from market to market,  depending  on the  individual  market
strength of the managed  care  companies.  The  Company's  acquisition  of Green
Spring creates  opportunities to increase its revenues through managed
care  contracts  utilizing the continuum of care  described  above,  information
systems that support care management and at-risk pricing mechanisms.

         State  certificate of need laws place  limitations on the Company's and
its  competitors'  ability  to  build  new  hospitals  and  to  expand  existing
hospitals.  Protection  from new  competition  is reduced in those  states where
there is no  certificate  of need law.  The Company  operates 44 hospitals in 12
states (Arizona,  Arkansas,  California,  Colorado,  Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana,
Nevada, New Mexico,  South Dakota, Texas and Utah) which do not have certificate
of need


<PAGE>



laws  applicable to hospitals.  In most cases,  these state laws do not restrict
the ability of the Company or its competitors to offer new outpatient services.

Industry Trends

         The  Company's  hospitals  have  been  adversely  affected  by  factors
influencing the entire psychiatric  hospital industry.  Factors which affect the
Company  include  (i)  the  imposition  of more  stringent  length  of stay  and
admission  criteria by payors;  (ii) the failure of reimbursement rate increases
from certain  payors that reimburse on a per diem or other  discounted  basis to
offset  increases  in the cost of providing  services;  (iii) an increase in the
percentage of its business that the Company  derives from payors that  reimburse
on a per diem or other discounted  basis;  (iv) a trend toward higher deductible
and  co-insurance  for  individual  patients;  and (v) a trend  toward  limiting
employee  health  benefits,  such as reductions in annual and lifetime limits on
mental health  coverage.  In response to these  conditions,  the Company has (i)
strengthened  controls to reduce costs and capital  expenditures,  (ii) reviewed
its portfolio of hospitals and sold,  closed or leased hospitals or consolidated
operations  in  certain  locations,   (iii)  developed  strategies  to  increase
outpatient services and partial hospitalization  programs to meet the demands of
the  marketplace,  and (iv)  created a  national,  fully  integrated  behavioral
healthcare  system  upon  acquiring  Green  Spring  in  December  1995,  thereby
improving  the  Company's  ability to obtain  contracts  with large  private and
public payors.

Governmental Budgetary Constraints and Healthcare Reform

         In the  1995  session  of the  United  States  Congress,  the  focus of
healthcare  legislation  has been on  budgetary  and related  funding  mechanism
issues.  A number of reports,  including  the 1995 Annual Report of the Board of
Trustees of the Federal  Hospital  Insurance  Program  (Medicare) have projected
that the Medicare "trust fund" is likely to become insolvent by the year 2002 if
the current growth rate of approximately 10% per annum in Medicare  expenditures
continues.  Similarly, federal and state expenditures under the Medicaid program
are projected to increase  significantly  during the same seven-year  period. In
response to these projected expenditure  increases,  and as part of an effort to
balance the federal  budget,  both the Congress  and the Clinton  Administration
have made  proposals  to reduce the rate of increase in  projected  Medicare and
Medicaid expenditures and to change funding mechanisms and other aspects of both
programs.  Congress has passed legislation that would reduce projected 
expenditure  increases  substantially and would make significant  changes in the
Medicare  and the  Medicaid  programs.  The Clinton Administration  has 
proposed  alternate  measures to reduce, to a lesser extent, projected  
increases in Medicare and  Medicaid  expenditures.  As of the date of this 
filing, neither proposal has become law. 

         The  Medicare  legislation  that  has  been  adopted  by Congress 
would, with some  differences,  reduce projected expenditure  increases  by a
variety of means,  including  reduced  payments  to providers (including the 
Company),  increased beneficiary premiums for physician and  certain  other   
services,   and  creation  of   incentives   for  Medicare beneficiaries  to 
enroll in managed  care plans or to accept  Medicare  coverage with a 
substantially  increased deductible,  with the savings being available to the 
beneficiaries to pay non-covered  expenses.  Changes in the Medicaid program 
would  reduce the number and  extent of federal  mandates  concerning  how state
Medicaid  programs operate  (including levels of benefits provided and levels of
payments to  providers)  and would change the funding  mechanism  from a sharing
formula between the federal government and a state to "block grant" funding. The
Company cannot predict the effect of any such  legislation,  if adopted,  on its
operations;  but the Company  anticipates  that,  although  overall Medicare and
Medicaid  funding  may be reduced  from  projected  levels,  the changes in such
programs may provide  opportunities to the Company to obtain increased  Medicare
and Medicaid  business through  risk-sharing or partial  risk-sharing  contracts
with managed care plans and state Medicaid programs.

         Although  the  United  States  Congress,  in 1995,  has not  considered
healthcare reform proposals,  the Company  anticipates that numerous  healthcare
reform  proposals will continue to be introduced in future sessions of Congress.
The Company  cannot  predict  whether any such  proposal  will be adopted or the
effect on the Company of any proposal that does become law.


<PAGE>


         A number of states in which the  Company  has  operations  have  either
adopted or are  considering  the  adoption of  healthcare  reform  proposals  of
general  applicability  or  Medicaid  reform  proposals,  partly in  response to
possible  changes in Medicaid law. Where  adopted,  these state reform laws have
often not yet been fully  implemented.  The Company cannot predict the effect of
these state healthcare reform and Medicaid reform laws on its operations.


Sources of Revenue

         Payments are made to the Company's hospitals by patients,  by insurance
companies and self-insured employers, by the federal and state governments under
Medicare,  Medicaid,  CHAMPUS and other  programs and by HMO's,  PPO's and other
managed care programs.  Amounts received under government programs, HMO, PPO and
other  managed  health care  arrangements,  certain  self-insured  employers and
certain  Blue Cross plans are  generally  less than the  hospital's  established
charges. The approximate  percentages of gross patient revenue (which is revenue
before deducting  contractual  allowances and discounts from established billing
rates) derived by the Company's  hospitals from various  payment sources for the
last three fiscal years were as follows:

</TABLE>

         Most private insurance carriers  reimburse their  policyholders or make
direct  payments  to the  hospitals  for  charges  at rates  specified  in their
policies.  The patient  remains  responsible  to the hospital for any difference
between  the  insurance  proceeds  and the total  charges.  Certain  Blue  Cross
programs  have  negotiated  reimbursement  rates with  certain of the  Company's
hospitals which are less than the hospital's established charges.

         Most of the Company's hospitals have entered into contracts with HMO's,
PPO's, certain self-insured employers and other managed care plans which provide
for reimbursement at rates less than the hospital's normal charges.  In addition
to contracts entered into by individual  hospitals with such managed care plans,
the Company has entered into regional and national contracts with HMO's,  PPO's,
self-insured  employers  and other  managed  care plans that apply to all of the
Company's  hospitals in the geographic areas covered by a contract.  The Company
is seeking to obtain  additional  regional and national  contracts.  The Company
expects its  percentage  of revenue from these payor  sources to increase in the
future.

         Under  the   Medicare   provisions   of  the  Tax   Equity  and  Fiscal
Responsibility Act of 1982 ("TEFRA"), costs per Medicare case are determined for
each of the Company's hospitals.  A target cost per case is established for each
year  (the  "Target  Rate").  If a  hospital's  costs per case are less than the
Target Rate, the hospital receives a bonus of 50% of the difference  between its
actual  costs per case and the Target Rate  (limited to 5% of the Target  Rate).
Hospitals with costs which exceed the Target Rate are paid an additional  amount
equal to 50% of the excess,  up to 10% of the Target  Rate.  These  limits apply
only to  operating  costs and do not apply to  capital  costs,  including  lease
expense,  depreciation and interest  associated with capital  expenditures.  The
Target Rate for each  hospital is increased  annually by the  application  of an
"update factor."



<PAGE>



         Most of the Company's hospitals  participate in state operated Medicaid
programs.  Current federal law prohibits Medicaid funding for inpatient services
in freestanding  psychiatric  hospitals for patients  between the ages of 21 and
64; proposed  legislation would eliminate this prohibition if implemented.  Each
state is responsible  for  establishing  the Medicaid  eligibility  and coverage
criteria,  payment methodology and funding mechanisms which apply in that state,
subject to  federal  guidelines.  Accordingly,  the level of  Medicaid  payments
received by the Company's  hospitals  varies from state to state. In addition to
the basic  payment  level for patient care,  several  state  programs  include a
financial benefit for hospitals which treat a disproportionately large volume of
Medicaid  patients  as a  percentage  of the  total  patient  population.  These
"disproportionate  share"  benefits are subject to annual review and revision by
the related state  governments and could be substantially  reduced or eliminated
at any point in the future. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 ("OBRA
93")  prohibits  disproportionate  share  payments  to  hospitals  which  have a
Medicaid  utilization  rate of less than 1%  effective  for state  fiscal  years
ending in 1994.  For state fiscal years which began on or after January 1, 1995,
the amount of  disproportionate  share  payments  each  hospital  can receive is
limited  through the use of formulas  based  generally  on the cost of providing
services to Medicaid and uninsured patients.  The Company received approximately
$15  million,  $11  million and $9 million in  Medicaid  disproportionate  share
payments in fiscal 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.

         Within the statutory  framework of the Medicare and Medicaid  programs,
there  are   substantial   areas   subject   to   administrative   rulings   and
interpretations  which may affect  payments  made  under  either or both of such
programs.  In  addition,  federal or state  governments  could reduce the future
funds  available  under  such  programs  or  adopt  additional  restrictions  on
admissions and more stringent  requirements  for utilization of services.  These
types of  measures  could  adversely  affect  the  Company's  operations.  Final
determination  of amounts payable under Medicare and certain  Medicaid  programs
are subject to review and audit. The Company's management believes that adequate
provisions  have been  made for any  adjustments  that  might  result  from such
reviews or audits.

         Most of the  Company's  hospitals  receive  revenues  from the  CHAMPUS
program.  Under CHAMPUS,  psychiatric  hospitals are classified into two groups,
each with different payment methods. The first group,  classified as high volume
CHAMPUS hospitals, are those hospitals with 25 or more CHAMPUS discharges during
a federal fiscal year. The Company has 56 hospitals  included within this group.
These hospitals receive a per diem payment,  subject to a limitation of $645 per
day. The remainder of the Company's  psychiatric hospitals are classified as low
volume  CHAMPUS  hospitals  and  receive  a per diem  based  on a  wage-adjusted
regional rate.

         CHAMPUS  patients  are  subject  to  annual  limits  on the  number  of
psychiatric days covered by CHAMPUS.  Covered  inpatient  services are generally
limited to 30 days for adult acute  patients,  45 days for child and  adolescent
acute patients, and 150 days for residential treatment center patients.

Regulation and Other Factors

         Operations of psychiatric hospitals are subject to substantial federal,
state and local government  regulation.  Such  regulations  provide for periodic
inspections or other reviews by state agencies,  the United States Department of
Health and Human Services (the "Department") and CHAMPUS to determine compliance
with  their  respective  standards  of medical  care,  staffing,  equipment  and
cleanliness  necessary for continued licensing or participation in the Medicare,
Medicaid or CHAMPUS  programs.  The  admission  and treatment of patients at the
Company's hospitals are also subject to substantial state regulation relating to
involuntary  admissions,  confidentiality  and  patients'  rights and to federal
regulation  relating to  confidentiality  of medical  records of substance abuse
patients.

         The  obtaining of approvals for  construction  of new hospitals and for
renovation  of and  additions  to  existing  hospitals  is  subject  to  various
governmental  requirements,  such as approval of sites and findings of community
need for additional  hospital facilities and services.  In addition,  in certain
states,  as a practical  matter,  it is necessary  to pledge to provide  various
amounts  of  uncompensated  care to  indigent  persons  in  order  to  obtain  a
certificate  of  need.  



<PAGE>



         Federal  law  contains  numerous  provisions  designed  to insure  that
services  rendered by hospitals to Medicare and Medicaid  patients are medically
necessary and are of a quality which meets  professionally  recognized standards
and to insure that claims for  reimbursement  under the  Medicare  and  Medicaid
programs  are  properly  filed.  Among other  things,  services  provided at the
Company's hospitals are subject to periodic review by Peer Review  Organizations
("PRO's").  All hospitals which  participate in the Medicare program are subject
to review by PRO's.  PRO activities  include  reviews of certain  admissions and
services to determine medical necessity and to determine whether quality of care
meets professionally recognized standards. PRO's have the authority to recommend
to the Department that a provider who is in substantial  noncompliance  with the
medical  necessity and quality of care standards of a PRO or who has grossly and
flagrantly  violated an  obligation  to render  quality  care be  excluded  from
participation  in the Medicare  program or be required to reimburse  the federal
government  for  certain  payments  previously  made to the  provider  under the
Medicare program.

         The  Company's  hospitals  have been subject to and have  complied with
various forms of utilization  review since 1970.  The Company has  implemented a
quality  assurance program in each of its hospitals,  which includes  procedures
for utilization review and retrospective patient care evaluation.

         The Medicare and Medicaid  Patient and Program  Protection  Act of 1987
expanded the authority of the  Department to exclude from  participation  in the
Medicare  and  Medicaid   programs  those  hospitals  which  engage  in  defined
prohibited activities. The Department is required under this Act to exclude from
participation  in the Medicare and Medicaid  programs any  individual  or entity
that has been  convicted  of a criminal  offense  relating  to the  delivery  of
services under Medicare and Medicaid or to the neglect or abuse of patients.  In
addition,  the  Department  has authority to exclude from  participation  in the
Medicare  program  individuals or hospitals  under certain other  circumstances.
These include engaging in illegal remuneration  arrangements with physicians and
other  healthcare  providers,  license  revocation,  exclusion  from some  other
government  programs (such as CHAMPUS),  filing claims for excess charges or for
unnecessary  services,  failure to comply with conditions of  participation  and
failure to disclose  certain  required  information or to grant proper access to
hospital books and records.

         The Department has authority to impose civil monetary penalties against
any  participant  in the  Medicare  program  which makes  claims for payment for
services  which were not  rendered  or were  rendered  by a person or entity not
properly licensed under state law. The Department also has authority to impose a
penalty  of not more than  $2,000 for each  improperly  claimed  service  and an
assessment  equal to not more than twice the amount claimed for each service not
rendered.

         In 1989, Congress passed the Stark I legislation which prohibits
physicians who have a financial relationship with entities that furnish 
clinical laboratory services from referring to such entities for Medicare
reimbursed services.  Stark I, which contains a number of exceptions from its
general referral prohibition, became effective January 1, 1992.  Proposed
regulations implementing Stark I were first issued in March 1992, however, the
final Stark I regulations were not issued on August 14, 1995.

         Subsequent to Stark I in 1993, Congress passed Stark II which expanded
the prohibitions of Stark I to include referrals from physicians for a wide
variety of medical services, including inpatient/outpatient hospital services,
and extended the referral prohibition to include services reimbursed under
Medicaid in addition to Medicare.  The limitations on referrals outlined in
Stark II became effective January 1, 1995.  Although the regulations
implementing Stark II have not been issued it is anticipated that they will be
similar to the Stark I regulations.  The Company believes that its financial
relationships with physicians do not violate the applicable statutes.  There
can be no assurance however that (i) government enforcement agencies will not
contend that certain of these financial relationships are in violation of the
Stark legislation or (ii) that the Stark legislation will not ultimately be
interpreted by the courts in a matter of inconsistent with the Company's 
practices or (iii) regulations will be issued in the future that will result
in an interpretation by the courts in the manner inconsistent with the
Company's practices.

         Federal  law makes it a felony,  subject to certain  exceptions,  for a
hospital  to make false  statements  relating to claims for  payments  under the
Medicare program, to engage in illegal remuneration arrangements with physicians
and other healthcare providers,  to make false statements relating to compliance
with the  Medicare  conditions  of  participation,  or to make false  claims for
Medicare or Medicaid  payments.  A number of states have  adopted laws that also
make illegal under state law certain remuneration and referral arrangements with
physicians and other healthcare providers.

<PAGE>

         In order to provide  guidance to healthcare  providers  with respect to
the statute that makes certain  remuneration  arrangements between hospitals and
physicians and other  healthcare  providers  illegal,  the Department has issued
regulations   outlining  certain  "safe  harbor"  practices,   which,   although
potentially capable of inducing prohibited  referrals of business,  would not be
subject to  enforcement  action  under the  illegal  remuneration  statute.  The
practices covered by the regulations include,  among others,  certain investment
transactions,  lease of space and  equipment,  personal  services and management
contracts,  sales of physician  practices,  payments to employees and waivers of
beneficiary  deductibles and co-payments.  Additional proposed safe harbors were
published in 1993 by the Department.  Certain transactions and agreements of the
Company do not satisfy all the  applicable  criteria  contained in the final and
proposed  safe  harbor   regulations  that  relate  to  such   transactions  and
agreements.  However, the Company believes that such leases and contracts do not
violate the statute that makes certain remuneration  arrangements illegal. There
can be no assurance  that (i)  government  enforcement  agencies will not assert
that certain of these arrangements are in violation of the illegal  remuneration
statute or (ii) the statute will  ultimately be  interpreted  by the courts in a
manner consistent with the Company's practices.

         CHAMPUS  regulations  authorize  CHAMPUS  to exclude  from the  CHAMPUS
program any provider who has  committed  fraud or engaged in abusive  practices.
The  regulations  permit  CHAMPUS  to make  its  own  determination  of  abusive
practices  without reliance on any actions of the Department.  The term "abusive
practices" is defined broadly to include,  among other things,  the provision of
medically  unnecessary  services,  the provision of care of inferior quality and
the failure to maintain adequate medical or financial records.

         A number of states have adopted hospital rate review legislation, which
generally  provides for state  regulation of rates charged for various  hospital
services.  Such laws are in effect in the state of Florida in which the  Company
operates ten hospitals.  In Florida, the Health Care Board approves a budget for
each hospital, which establishes a permitted level of revenues per discharge. If
this level of permitted  revenues  per  discharge is exceeded by a hospital in a
particular year by more than a specified amount,  certain  penalties,  including
cash penalties, can be imposed.

         GPA, the Company's  subsidiary that owns or manages  professional group
practices  is subject to the federal  and state  illegal  remuneration  statutes
described above. In addition,  in some states,  practice of medicine and certain
other health professions' laws prohibit the subsidiary from owning, but not from
managing, professional practices.

Medical Staffs and Employees

         At September 30, 1995,  approximately  1,500 licensed  physicians  were
active members of the medical staffs of the Company's  hospitals.  Many of these
physicians  also serve on the  medical  staffs of other  hospitals.  A number of
these physicians serve in administrative  capacities in the Company's hospitals.
Most of these physicians are independent  contractors who have private practices
in addition to their duties for the Company,  while certain of these  physicians
are  employees  of the  Company.  The medical and  professional  affairs of each
hospital are supervised by the medical staff of the hospital,  under the control
of  its  board  of  trustees.  The  Company  recruits  physicians  to  serve  in
administrative  capacities at its hospitals and to engage in private practice in
communities where the Company's hospitals are located.  The Company's agreements
with recruited physicians generally provide for, among other things,  allowances
for  reimbursement of relocation and office start-up expenses and a guarantee of
a specified  level of physician  income during the recruited  physician's  first
year of practice.

         Registered nurses and certain other hospital  employees are required to
be licensed under the professional  licensing laws of most states. The Company's
hospital  subsidiaries  require  such  employees to maintain  such  professional
licenses as a condition of employment.

         At September 30, 1995, the Company had  approximately  9,200  full-time
and 3,700  part-time  employees.  The  Company's  hospitals  have had  generally
satisfactory labor relations.

Liability Insurance

         Effective June 1, 1995, Plymouth Insurance Company, Ltd.  ("Plymouth"),
a  wholly-owned  Bermuda  subsidiary  of the  Company,  provides $25 million per
occurrence  general  and  hospital  professional  liability  insurance  for  the
Company's hospitals.  All of the risk of losses from $1.5 million to $25 million
per occurrence has been reinsured with unaffiliated  insurers.  The Company also
insures  with an  unaffiliated  insurer  100% of the risk of losses  between $25
million and $100 million per occurrence.  The Company's general and professional
liability  coverage  is written  on a "claims  made or  circumstances  reported"
basis.

         For the six years from June 1, 1989 through May 31,  1995,  the Company
had a similar general and hospital professional liability insurance program. For
those years,  the per occurrence  deductible  (with respect to which the Company
was self-insured) was $2.5 million for the years ended May 31, 1990 and 1991, $2
million for the years ended May 31, 1992 and 1993 and $1.5 million  (relating to
the Company's  general  hospitals sold on September 30, 1993) for the year ended
May 31, 1994. For psychiatric  hospitals,  Plymouth's coverage did not contain a
per occurrence  deductible for the year ended May 31, 1994 and 1995. In December
1994,  the per  occurrence  deductible for the years ended May 31, 1989 and 1990
was eliminated.  Plymouth provides coverage with no per occurence deductible for
hospital system claims which had not been paid prior to December 31, 1994.

information  of the  Company  for each of the five  years  in the  period  ended

implementation  of fresh start  accounting  in fiscal 1992,  which  included the
revaluation of the Company's assets and liabilities and resulted in, among other
things,  significant  reductions  in  long-term  debt and  interest  expense and
elimination of preferred  stock and preferred  stock dividend  requirements.  In
1993, the Company restated its consolidated  financial statements to reflect the

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations

Overview

         For the fiscal  years ended  September  30,  1993,  1994 and 1995,  the
Company  derived  approximately  11%,  14% and 17%,  respectively,  of its gross
patient revenue from managed care payors  (primarily HMO's and PPO's);  45%, 35%
and 30%,  respectively,  from other private payor sources  (primarily Blue Cross
and commercial insurance); and 44%, 51% and 53%, respectively, from governmental
payors  (primarily  Medicare,  Medicaid and CHAMPUS).  The Company believes that
revenue from private payors, as a percentage of total gross patient revenue, has
declined  because of a shift by  purchasers  of health care  coverage to managed
care plans that generally  authorize  shorter  lengths of stay than  traditional
insurance  plans and authorize  more  outpatient  treatment  plans.  Services to
Medicare and Medicaid  patients have increased due to increased  recognition and
treatment  of  behavioral  illnesses  of the elderly and  disabled  and, in some
states,  improved coverage of behavioral  services in psychiatric  hospitals for
Medicaid beneficiaries. These shifts in the Company's payor mix and the Acquired
Hospitals,  who have  historically had lower net revenue per equivalent  patient
day than  other  Company  hospitals,  have  resulted  in lower net  revenue  per
equivalent  patient day. The  psychiatric  hospital  industry has been adversely
affected by the trends described under "Item 1. Business - Industry Trends."

         Because of the industry factors referred to previously and the Hospital
Acquisition,  the Company's  operating  margin  declined to 17.0% in fiscal 1995
from 19.1% in fiscal 1994. Operating income (net revenue less salaries, supplies
and other  operating  expenses  and bad debt  expenses)  was $195.5  million for
fiscal  1995,  compared  with  $172.5  million in fiscal  1994.  The Company may
continue to experience  reduced operating margins as a percentage of net revenue
when compared to prior periods. The Company intends to increase market share and
patient  volume through  contracting  activities,  to consolidate  markets where
practical to reduce  operating  costs,  and to enter joint venture  arrangements
with other healthcare providers in response to this trend. The Company continues
to broaden  the scope of  services  it  provides  by  offering  alternatives  to
traditional  inpatient  treatment  settings,  such as  partial  hospitalization,
intensive  outpatient and  residential  treatment  programs,  the utilization of
mentor homes and by entering the  behavioral  managed care business  through the
acquisition of Green Spring in December 1995.

         The  Company's  ability  to  increase  the rates it  charges  to offset
increased costs is limited because the Company derives a significant  portion of
its revenues from patients covered by governmental  and  managed-care  programs.
With respect to  governmental  programs,  the amount the Company is paid for its
services is  established  by law and  regulation.  With respect to  managed-care
programs,  the amount is established  by the  managed-care  contracts.  Although
inflation  has  not  been a  significant  factor  in the  Company's  results  of
operations in recent years, a resurgence of inflation could adversely affect the
Company's  results of operations  because of such  limitations  on the Company's
ability to increase its rates. It is unlikely that federal and state governments
will increase reimbursement rates under their programs in


<PAGE>



amounts  sufficient  to offset future price  increases  that result from general
inflationary pressures.

         The Company's business is seasonal in nature, with a reduced demand for
certain   services   generally   occurring  during  the  first  fiscal  quarter,
particularly  around major  holidays such as  Thanksgiving  and  Christmas,  and
during the summer months comprising the fourth fiscal quarter.

         Management  believes that the purchase of the Acquired  Hospitals  will
assist the Company in  implementing  its strategy by  increasing  the  Company's
size,  market  position and  geographical  coverage.  For example,  the Hospital
Acquisition permitted the Company to enter 16 new markets,  including markets in
the  mid-Atlantic  and  northeastern  United  States.  Management  believes  the
operating  results of the Acquired  Hospitals will provide  sufficient cash flow
for debt  service  and capital  expenditures  related to those  facilities.  The
aggregate  purchase price for the Acquired  Hospitals was  approximately  $120.4
million in cash plus  approximately  $51  million  for the  related  net working
capital.  Of this amount,  $106.3  million was obtained from the net proceeds of
the  Notes  issued in May 1994,  $39.1  million  was  borrowed  pursuant  to the
Revolving  Credit  Agreement and  approximately  $26 million of cash on hand was
used. Pro forma results of operations for fiscal 1994 and 1995 which include the
40  Acquired  Hospitals  are  included in Note 2 of the  Company's  Consolidated
Financial Statements.

         A summary of psychiatric hospitals in operation during each fiscal year
is as follows:

         The  Company  leases  one  general  hospital,  which is  managed  by an
unrelated third party. The lease and management agreement expire in 1997.

         For fiscal 1993, the general hospitals  operated by the Company had net
revenue  of  approximately  $347  million  and a net loss of  approximately  $15
million. In 1993, the Company restated its consolidated  financial statements to
reflect the sales of the general  hospitals  and its interest in a  non-hospital
subsidiary as discontinued  operations.  On September 30, 1993, the Company sold
its general  hospitals and related assets for  approximately  $338 million.  The
Company  retained the assets and  liabilities  relating to these  hospitals  for
professional  liability claims incurred and cost report  settlements for periods
prior to September 30, 1993.

         On September 15, 1993, the Company sold its interest in Beech Street of
California,  Inc. ("Beech  Street").  Beech Street operates  preferred  provider
networks and provides utilization review services to third parties.  Immediately
prior to the sale,  the Company owned 71.1% of the voting stock and 19.8% of the
equity  ownership  of  Beech  Street.   The  operations  of  Beech  Street  were
consolidated with the Company and have been reported as discontinued  operations
in the  Company's  financial  statements.  For  fiscal  1993,  Beech  Street had
revenues of approximately $26 million and net income of approximately $700,000.

         The  Company  recognized  after-tax  gains from the sale of the general
hospitals  and Beech Street of  approximately  $10.7  million  during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 1993.

         During fiscal 1992,  the Company filed a voluntary  petition for relief
pursuant to Chapter 11 of the U.S.  Bankruptcy  Code.  The  prepackaged  plan of
reorganization  effected  a  restructuring  of the  Company's  debt  and  equity
capitalization.  The  Restructuring,  which  became  effective on July 21, 1992,
resulted  in a reduction  of  approximately  $700  million  principal  amount of
long-term  debt and the  elimination  of  redeemable  preferred  stock having an
aggregate liquidation  preference of $233 million. The Company accounted for the
Restructuring  by using the principles of fresh start  accounting.  Accordingly,
the Company's total assets were recorded at their assumed  reorganization value,
with


<PAGE>



the reorganization value allocated to identified tangible assets on the basis of
their  estimated fair value at July 31, 1992.  The excess of the  reorganization
value over the value of identifiable assets is reported as "reorganization value
in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets."

selected operating indicators.

         Fiscal 1994  Compared to Fiscal  1995.  Patient  days at the  Company's
hospitals  increased 27% in fiscal 1995 as compared to fiscal 1994. The increase
resulted  primarily from patient days  attributable  to the Acquired  Hospitals.
Patient days at the same store  hospitals  decreased  3% due  primarily to a 10%
decrease  in the  average  length of stay from 13.6 days in fiscal  1994 to 12.2
days in fiscal 1995 for the same store hospitals. Total admissions increased 29%
in fiscal 1994 as compared to fiscal 1995.  The increase in admissions  resulted
primarily from  admissions  attributable  to the Acquired  Hospitals.  On a same
store  hospital  basis,  admissions  increased 6% for fiscal 1995 as compared to
fiscal 1994.

         The Company's net revenue  increased  $247.1  million,  or 27.3%,  from
$904.6  million in fiscal  1994 to $1.2  billion in fiscal  1995.  The  increase
resulted primarily from acquisitions. Net revenue for fiscal 1995 included $35.6
million from the normal  settlement of previous years  reimbursement  issues and
disproportionate  share payments,  which represented an increase of $3.5 million
from  fiscal  1994.  Net  revenue  at  the  Company's  non-psychiatric  hospital
operations  increased  $59.1  million,   including  $56.5  million  provided  by
companies acquired or developed in the Company's  expansion of services pursuant
to its business  strategy.  Net revenue at the  Company's  same store  hospitals
decreased  3.6% from $762.3  million in fiscal 1994 to $734.8  million in fiscal
1995. The Company  derived net revenue in fiscal 1995 of $249.2 million from the
Acquired  Hospitals as compared to $52.1 million in fiscal 1994. Net revenue per
equivalent patient day decreased 4.5% to $532 in fiscal 1995 from $557 in fiscal
1994.  The  decreases  were  primarily  due to lower net revenue per  equivalent
patient day for the Acquired Hospitals compared to the Company's other hospitals
and a continued  shift in payor mix from private  payor  sources to managed care
payors and governmental payors.




<PAGE>



         Following is a discussion  of changes in operating  expenses for fiscal
1994 compared to fiscal 1995.

         The Company's salaries, supplies and other operating expenses increased
$202.6  million or 30.6% in fiscal 1995 to $864.2 million from $661.5 million in
fiscal 1994. The increase was primarily due to expenses incurred by the Acquired
Hospitals  of $194.1  million as  compared  to $40.2  million in fiscal 1994 and
expenses of other acquired businesses offset by reductions in salaries, supplies
and other expenses at the same store psychiatric hospitals.  Cost savings at the
same store hospitals were achieved by reducing advertising  expenses,  purchased
services and medical professional fees.

         The Company's  bad debt  expenses  increased to $92.0 million in fiscal
1995 from $70.6  million in fiscal  1994.  The  increase  was  primarily  due to
additional  bad debt  expense at the  Acquired  Hospitals  of $12.9  million and
increased bad debt expense at the Company's other hospitals. Bad debt expense as
a  percentage  of net  revenue  increased  to 8.0% in fiscal  1995 from 7.8% for
fiscal 1994. The Company anticipates future increases in bad debt expense due to
increased   deductibles  and   co-insurance  and  reduced  annual  and  lifetime
psychiatric maximum payment limits for individual patients, which will result in
the Company not collecting full charges on an increasing number of patients.

         Depreciation  and  amortization  increased  34.3% to $38.1  million  in
fiscal 1995. The increase  resulted  primarily from the depreciation  related to
the  Acquired  Hospitals  and other  acquisitions  and the  amortization  of the
related covenant not to compete and goodwill.

         Reorganization  value in excess of amounts  allocable  to  identifiable
assets (the "Excess  Reorganization  Value") was amortized  over the  three-year
period ended July 31, 1995.  The related  amortization  expense  decreased  $5.2
million in fiscal 1995 as compared to fiscal 1994 due to the  completion  of the
amortization period in fiscal 1995.

         Net interest  expense for fiscal 1995 increased  40.2% to $55.2 million
from the  previous  fiscal  year due to the  issuance  of the  Notes  and due to
additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement for acquisitions.

         ESOP expense for fiscal 1995 increased 49.5% to $73.5 million in fiscal
1995 from $49.2 million for fiscal 1994. The increase resulted primarily from an
increase in shares allocated to the ESOP participants.  The Company has commited
to  allocate  all  existing  shares  held by the ESOP to the  participants  and,
accordingly, will not incur this expense in future years.

         Stock option expense for fiscal 1995  decreased  $11.1 million from the
previous  year due to a charge  during the first  quarter of fiscal 1994 of $3.9
million  related to the manner of exercise of certain  options  held by a former
employee  and  director  (see  Note 7 of the  Company's  Consolidated  Financial
Statements) and changes in the market price of the Company's common stock.

         During  fiscal  1995,  the  Company  recorded  unusual  items of $ 57.4
million.  Included in the unusual  charges was the  resolution  in March 1995 of
disputes  between the Company and a group of  insurance  carriers  that arose in
fiscal 1995 related to claims paid  predominantly in the 1980's.  As part of the
resolution, the Company agreed to pay the insurance carriers approximately $29.8
million in five  installments  over a  three-year  period.  The  Company and the
insurance  carriers will continue to do business at the same or similar  general
levels.  Furthermore,  the parties will seek additional  business  opportunities
that will serve to enhance their present relationships.

         During fiscal 1995,  the Company  consolidated,  closed or sold fifteen
psychiatric  facilities.  The Company  recorded a charge of  approximately  $3.6
million in the fourth  quarter of fiscal  1995  related to the five  psychiatric
hospitals closed in the fourth quarter.

         The  Company  also  recorded a charge of  approximately  $27.0  million
related to the adoption and implementation of Statement of Financial  Accounting
Standards  No. 121.  See "Recent  Accounting  Pronouncements"  on page 23 for
further detail.

         The Company also recorded an unusual item of approximately $3.0 million
for the gain on the sale of three psychiatric hospitals.

         As of September  30, 1995,  the Company had estimated tax net operating
loss (NOL)  carryforwards  of  approximately  $233  million  available to reduce
future federal taxable  income.  These NOL carry forwards expire in 2006 through
2009 and are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.  Due to the
ownership change which occurred as a result of the Reorganization, the Company's
utilization of NOLs generated prior to the consummation of the Reorganization is
significantly  limited.  The Internal Revenue Service is currently examining the
Company's income tax returns for fiscal 1989 through 1992.  Adjustments  arising
from such  examination  could  reduce or  eliminate  the NOL  carryforwards.  In
management's  opinion,  adequate  provisions  have been made for any adjustments
which may result from such examinations.

Outlook

         Management  continually  assesses  events and changes in  circumstances
that could affect its  business  strategy  and the  viability  of its  operating
facilities.  During  1995,  the  Company  consolidated,  closed or sold  fifteen
psychiatric hospitals.  Management may elect to consolidate services in selected
markets and to close or sell additional  facilities in future periods  depending
on market  conditions  and  evolving  business  strategies.  If the Company  
closes additional psychiatric hospitals in future periods, it could result in 
additional charges to income for the costs necessary to exit the hospital 
operations.

         On December  13,  1995,  the Company  acquired  51% of the  outstanding
common stock of Green Spring for approximately  $73.2 million in cash and Common
Stock and the  contribution of Group Practice  Affiliates,  Inc., a wholly owned
Magellan subsidiary that became a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Green Spring. 
Green Spring provides managed behavioral healthcare services. The Company will 
account for the acquisition of Green Spring using the purchase method of 
accounting.

         The minority  shareholders of Green Spring will have the option,  under
certain circumstances, to exchange their ownership interests in Green Spring for
approximately  3.6 million  shares of Magellan common stock or $81.8  million in
subordinated  notes.  The  Company  may elect to pay cash in lieu of issuing the
subordinated notes. The exchange option expires on December 13, 1998.

         On December 20, 1995, the Company  acquired an additional 10% ownership
interest in Green Spring for approximately  $16.7 million in cash as a result of
an exchange  option  exercised by certain of the minority  shareholders of Green
Spring.  The Company has a 61% ownership  interest in Green Spring subsequent to
the exercise of the aforementioned exchange option.

         The  acquisition  of Green Spring creates a fully  integrated  national
behavioral  healthcare  system.  The Company will now have the ability to obtain
direct  access  to  large  public  and  private   payors  who  are  seeking  one
organization to manage,  administer and deliver behavioral  healthcare services.
In addition, the strategic alliance with Green Spring should increase the number
of  patients  utilizing  inpatient  and  outpatient  services  at the  Company's
hospitals.  As a result of the Green  Spring  acquisition,  the Company  expects
increases in revenues and operating income in fiscal 1996. However, increases in
amortization expense,  interest expense and minority interest resulting from the
acquisition  of Green  Spring may exceed the  expected increase  in  operating 
income in fiscal 1996.

         Fiscal 1993  Compared to Fiscal  1994.  Patient  days at the  Company's
hospitals  increased 1% in fiscal 1994. The increase resulted primarily from the
Acquired  Hospitals.  Patient days at the same store hospitals  decreased 5% due
primarily  to a 15%  decrease in the  average  length of stay for the same store
hospitals  from  16.0 days in fiscal  1993 to 13.6  days in fiscal  1994.  Total
admissions increased 18% in fiscal 1993 as compared to fiscal 1994. The increase
resulted primarily from the Acquired Hospitals.

         The Company's net revenue increased $6.7 million,  or 0.8%, from $897.9
million in fiscal 1993 to $904.6 million in fiscal 1994.  The increase  resulted
primarily  from  acquisitions.  Net  revenue  at the  Company's  non-psychiatric
hospital  operations  increased  $9.6  million,  including  $3.4  million at the
Company's  general  hospital  which is managed by a third party and $1.9 million
provided by  companies  acquired or  developed  in the  Company's  expansion  of
services pursuant to its business  strategy.  Net revenue decreased $9.6 million
due to the disposal of hospitals  which were  considered  core hospitals  during
portions of fiscal  1993.  Net  revenue at the  Company's  same store  hospitals
decreased


<PAGE>



$34.7  million  from $797.0  million in fiscal 1993 to $762.3  million in fiscal
1994.  The Company  derived net revenue in fiscal 1994 of $52.1 million from the
Acquired  Hospitals.  Net revenue per  equivalent  patient day decreased 3.3% to
$557 in fiscal 1994 from $576 in fiscal 1993. The decreases  resulted  primarily
from a continued  shift in payor mix from private  payor sources to managed care
payors  and  governmental  payors.  

         Following  is a  discussion  of  changes  in operating expenses for 
fiscal 1993 compared to fiscal 1994.

         The Company's salaries, supplies and other operating expenses increased
3.2% to $661.5  million in fiscal 1994 from $640.8  million in fiscal 1993,  due
primarily to expenses incurred by the Acquired  Hospitals of $40.2 million.  The
same store  psychiatric  hospitals  of the  Company  decreased  their  salaries,
supplies  and  other  expenses  primarily  by  reducing  advertising   expenses,
purchased services, salaries and benefits and medical professional fees.

         The  Company's  bad debt  expenses  increased  4.9% to $70.6 million in
fiscal 1994 from $67.3 million in fiscal 1993. The Hospital Acquisition resulted
in  additional  bad debt expense of $3.7 million  during  fiscal 1994.  Bad debt
expense as a  percentage  of net revenue  increased to 7.8% for fiscal 1994 from
7.5% for fiscal 1993.

         Depreciation and amortization increased 7.5% to $28.4 million in fiscal
1994.  The  increase  resulted  primarily  from  depreciation  of  the  Acquired
Hospitals  and the  amortization  of the  related  covenant  not to compete  and
goodwill during 1994.

         Reorganization  value in excess of amounts  allocable  to  identifiable
assets (the "Excess  Reorganization  Value") was amortized  over the  three-year
period ended July 31, 1995. During fiscal 1993, Excess  Reorganization Value was
reduced by approximately  $21 million to reflect the recognition of tax benefits
related  to   pre-Reorganization   tax  loss  carry  forwards  and  accordingly,
amortization  expense for the Excess  Reorganization  Value  decreased  26.9% to
$31.2 million in fiscal 1994 from $42.7 million in fiscal 1993.

         Net interest  expense for fiscal 1994 decreased 46.9% from the previous
fiscal year due to the debt  reductions  resulting  from the sale of the general
hospitals on  September  30,  1993,  mandatory  and  voluntary  prepayments  and
scheduled  payments in fiscal 1993 and fiscal 1994.  Interest expense during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1994 increased over the first three quarters due to the
issuance of the Notes and to  borrowings  under the Revolving  Credit  Agreement
used in the Hospital Acquisition.

         Interest expense was  significantly  reduced by the consummation of the
Plan and as a result of the payments on debt made with proceeds from the sale of
the general hospitals.

         ESOP expense for fiscal 1994 increased 7.2% to $49.2 million from $45.9
million  for fiscal  1993.  The  increase  resulted  primarily  from  changes in
eligibility   requirements,   which   increased  the  number  of  employees  who
participate in the ESOP.

         Stock option expense for fiscal 1994  decreased  $27.8 million from the
previous year due to a one-time  charge during the second quarter of fiscal 1993
of $21.3  million  related to the  vesting of certain  options  held by a former
employee  and  director  (see  Note 7 of the  Company's  Consolidated  Financial
Statements) and changes in the market price of the Company's Common Stock.

         During fiscal 1994, the Company recorded unusual items of approximately
$71.3  million.  Included in the unusual  charges was the resolution in November
1994  between  the Company and a group of  insurance  carriers of disputes  that
arose in the fourth quarter related to claims paid  predominantly in the 1980's.
As part of the  resolution,  the Company  agreed to pay the  insurance  carriers
approximately  $31 million plus  interest,  for a total of $37.5 million in four
installments over a three-year  period.  The Company and the insurance  carriers
will continue to do business at the same or similar general levels. Furthermore,
the  parties  will seek  additional  business  opportunities  that will serve to
enhance their present relationships.

         As a result of the Hospital  Acquisition,  the Company  reassessed  its
business  strategy  in  certain  markets.  The  Company  established  a plan  to
consolidate  services in selected  markets and close or sell certain  facilities
owned prior to the Hospital  Acquisition.  Accordingly,  the Company  recorded a
charge of $23 million in fiscal 1994 primarily to write down


<PAGE>



the assets of those  facilities to their net realizable  value. The Company also
recorded as an unusual charge during fiscal 1994 of  approximately  $4.5 million
of expenses related to the relocation of the Company's executive offices.

         During  fiscal  1994,  the Company  recorded an  extraordinary  loss of
approximately  $12.6  million (net of income tax benefit of  approximately  $8.4
million)  related to the defeasance of the Company's 7 1/2% Senior  Subordinated
Debentures  due  2003 and the  pay-off  of  certain  subsidiary  mortgages.  The
extraordinary  loss includes the difference between the redemption price and the
carrying  value of the  debentures  and  prepayment  penalties  related  to such
subsidiary mortgages.

         See "Business -- Competition," "-- Sources of Revenues," "-- Regulation
and Other Factors," "-- Medical Staffs and Employees," "-- Industry Trends," and
"-- Liability  Insurance" for  additional  information on trends that may affect
operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Operational  Activities.  The  Company's net cash provided by operating
activities  was $98.3 million and $95.6 million for fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1995,
respectively.  The  decrease in net cash  provided by  operating  activities  is
primarily  attributable to the payments related to the insurance settlements ($0
in fiscal 1994 and $22.3 million in fiscal 1995) and increased interest payments
offset by the positive operating cash flows generated by acquired businesses. As
of  September  30, 1994 and 1995,  the  Company  had  working  capital of $109.6
million and $91.4 million, respectively,  including cash and cash equivalents of
$129.6  million  and $105.5  million.  The  decrease  in working  capital is due
primarily to the funding of certain acquisitions with cash on hand during fiscal
1995.  Management  believes  that the Company will have  adequate cash flow from
operations  to fund  its  operations,  capital  expenditures  and  debt  service
obligations over the next year.

         The number of days of gross patient  revenue in gross patient  accounts
receivable was 61 days at September 30, 1995 and 62 days at September 30, 1994.

         Investing  Activities.  During fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1995, the Company
incurred approximately $14.6 million and $20.2 million, respectively, in capital
expenditures,  primarily for routine capital replacement. During fiscal 1994 and
fiscal 1995,  the Company also incurred  expenditures  of  approximately  $130.6
million and $62.0 million,  respectively,  in connection with acquisitions.  The
capital  outlays  were  financed  from  borrowings  under the  Revolving  Credit
Agreement,  proceeds  from the  issuance of the Notes and from cash  provided by
operations.

         Management  believes  that its cash on hand,  future  cash  flows  from
operations,  borrowing  capacity  under the Revolving  Credit  Agreement and its
ability to issue debt and equity securities under current market conditions will
provide  adequate  capital  resources  to  support  the  Company's   anticipated
long-term investing strategies.

         Financing  Activities.  On May 2, 1994,  the Company  entered  into the
Revolving Credit Agreement and issued the 11 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes. The
net proceeds from the sale of the Notes,  together with  borrowings  pursuant to
the  Revolving  Credit  Agreement,  were  used  to  refinance  the  indebtedness
outstanding pursuant to the Company's previous credit agreement, to retire the 7
1/2% Senior  Subordinated  Debentures,  to refinance  certain existing  mortgage
indebtedness  of certain of the  subsidiaries  of the Company and to finance the
Hospital Acquisition and to pay related transaction expenses.  Commitments under
the Revolving Credit  Agreement will be  automatically  reduced by approximately
$23.8  million on March 31, 1996,  $47.5  million on March 31,  1997,  and $32.5
million on March 31,  1998 and $175.0  million on March 31,  1999.  The  Company
believes that its hospitals and other  businesses will generate  sufficient cash
flows from  operations to meet its future debt service  requirements.  The Notes
mature on April 15,  2004.  Interest  on the Notes is payable  each April 15 and
October 15.

         On December 22, 1995, the Company  entered into a definitive  agreement
to issue  approximately  four  million  shares of Common  Stock and two  million
warrants in a private  placement.  The expected  net  proceeds  from the private
placement of approximately $70 million will be used to service a portion of the
outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Company expects
to complete the private placement transaction, subject to certain regulatory 
approval, no later than January 31, 1996.


<PAGE>



         As of September 30, 1995, the Company had approximately $127 million of
availability   under  the  Revolving   Credit   Agreement.   In  December  1995,
approximately  $68 million of the Revolving  Credit  Agreement  availability was
utilized in connection with the acquisition of the 61% interest in Green Spring.
The Company obtained increased operational and financial flexibility as a result
of entering  into the Revolving  Credit  Agreement and issuing the Notes because
the covenants  contained in the Revolving Credit Agreement and the indenture for
the Notes are less  restrictive  than those  formerly  in effect.  However,  the
Revolving  Credit  Agreement and the indenture for the Notes contain a number of
restrictive  covenants,  which,  among  other  things,  limit the ability of the
Company to incur other  indebtedness,  engage in transactions  with  affiliates,
incur liens, make certain restricted  payments,  and enter into certain business
combination and asset sale  transactions.  The Revolving  Credit  Agreement also
limits the  Company's  ability to incur  capital  expenditures  and requires the
Company to maintain certain specified financial ratios. A failure by the Company
to maintain such financial ratios or to comply with the  restrictions  contained
in the  Revolving  Credit  Agreement,  the  indenture  for the  Notes  or  other
agreements  relating to the Company's debt could cause such indebtedness (and by
reason  of   cross-acceleration   provisions,   other  indebtedness)  to  become
immediately  due and  payable.  The  Company  was in  compliance  with  all debt
covenants at September 30, 1995.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 121 ("FAS 121") "Accounting for
the  Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed
Of", which becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995.
FAS  121  establishes  standards  for  determining  when  impairment  losses  on
long-lived  assets have occurred and how  impairment  losses should be measured.
The Company adopted FAS 121 effective  October 1, 1994. The financial  statement
impact  of  adopting  FAS 121  was  not  material.  The  application  of FAS 121
subsequent to the adoption date resulted in the Company recording  approximately
$27.0 million in impairment losses.

         In October  1995,  the FASB issued  Statement of  Financial  Accounting
Standards No. 123 ("FAS 123") "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation,"  which
becomes  effective for fiscal years  beginning  after December 15, 1995. FAS 123
establishes  new financial  accounting and reporting  standards for  stock-based
compensation plans. Entities will be allowed to measure compensation expense for
stock-based  compensation  under FAS 123 or APB Opinion No. 25,  "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees."  Entities  electing to remain with the accounting in
APB Opinion No. 25 will be required to make pro forma  disclosures of net income
and earnings per share as if the  provisions  of FAS 123 had been  applied.  The
Company is in the process of  evaluating  FAS 123. The  potential  impact on the
Company of adopting the new standard has not been  quantified at this time.  The
Company must adopt FAS 123 no later than October 1, 1996.

                                     REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Magellan Health Services, Inc.:

         We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of
Magellan  Health  Services,  Inc. (a  Delaware  corporation)  formerly  (Charter
Medical Corporation) and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1994 and 1995, and the
related consolidated  statements of operations,  changes in stockholders' equity
and cash flows for each of the three  years in the period  ended  September  30,
1995.  These  financial  statements  and the schedule  referred to below are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these  consolidated  financial  statements  and schedule based on our
audits.

         We conducted our audits in accordance with generally  accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   
         In our opinion,  the  financial  statements  referred to above  present
fairly,  in all material  respects,  the financial  position of Magellan  Health
Services,  Inc.  and  subsidiaries  as of September  30, 1994 and 1995,  and the
results of their  operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period  ended  September  30, 1995 in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

         Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial  statements  taken as a whole.  The  schedule  listed  in the index to
financial  statements is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities
and  Exchange  Commission's  rules  and  is not  part  of  the  basic  financial
statements.  This schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in the audits of the basic  financial  statements  and, in our  opinion,  fairly
states in all material  respects  the  financial  data  required to be set forth
therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                                                      ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP

                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 September 30, 1995


1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

         The consolidated financial statements of Magellan Health Services, Inc.
("the Company") (formerly Charter Medical  Corporation)  include the accounts of
the Company and its  subsidiaries.  All  significant  intercompany  accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

         On June 2, 1992,  the Company filed a voluntary  petition under Chapter
11 of the United States  Bankruptcy Code. The prepackaged plan of reorganization
(the  "Plan")  effected  a  restructuring  of  the  Company's  debt  and  equity
capitalization (the  "Restructuring").  The Company's Plan was confirmed on July
8, 1992, and became  effective on July 21, 1992  (effective on July 31, 1992 for
financial reporting  purposes).  The consolidated  financial  statements for the
three years in the period ended September 30, 1995 are presented for the Company
after the  consummation  of the Plan.  These  statements were prepared under the
principles of fresh start accounting. (See Note 3.)

         The  Company  provides  behavioral  healthcare  services  in the United
States,  the United Kingdom and Switzerland.  The Company's  principal  services
include inpatient treatment, day and partial hospitalization services, group and
individual outpatient treatment and residential services.

         The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amount of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Revenue

         Net  revenue is based on  established  billing  rates,  less  estimated
allowances for patients covered by Medicare and other contractual  reimbursement
programs and discounts from established  billing rates.  Amounts received by the
Company for  treatment  of patients  covered by Medicare  and other  contractual
reimbursement  programs,  which  may be based on cost of  services  provided  or
predetermined  rates,  are generally less than the established  billing rates of
the Company's hospitals. Final determination of amounts earned under contractual
reimbursement  programs  is  subject  to  review  and  audit  by the  applicable
agencies.  Management  believes  that  adequate  provision has been made for any
adjustments that may result from such reviews.

Advertising Costs

         The Company  adopted AICPA  Statement of Position  93-7,  "Reporting on
Advertising  Costs,"  ("SOP  93-7")  effective  October 1, 1994.  The  financial
statement impact of conforming to SOP 93-7 was not material.

         The  production   costs  of  advertising   are  expensed  as  incurred.
Direct-response  advertising  costs  are  capitalized  and  amortized  over  the
expected period of future  benefit.  Direct-response  advertising  costs consist
primarily of radio and television air time, which are amortized as utilized, and
printed media services. At September 30, 1994 and 1995, capitalized  advertising
costs were not material.  Advertising  expense was approximately  $39.4 million,
$35.6 million and $33.5 million for the years ended September 30, 1993, 1994 and
1995, respectively.



<PAGE>



Charity Care

         The Company  provides  care without  charge or at amounts less than its
established  rates to patients who meet certain  criteria under its charity care
policies.  Because the Company does not pursue collection of amounts  determined
to be charity  care,  they are not  reported  as  revenue.  For the years  ended
September 30, 1993,  1994 and 1995,  the Company  provided,  at its  established
billing rates,  approximately  $33.1  million,  $29.3 million and $41.2 million,
respectively, of such care.

Interest, Net

         The Company records  interest  expense net of capitalized  interest and
interest  income.  Interest income for the years ended September 30, 1993, 1994,
and 1995  was  approximately  $3.6  million,  $4.4  million  and  $3.7  million,
respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

         Cash  equivalents  are  short-term,   highly  liquid   interest-bearing
investments  with a maturity of three months or less when purchased,  consisting
primarily of money market instruments.

Concentration of Credit Risk

         Accounts  receivable  from  patient  revenue  subject  the Company to a
concentration  of credit risk with third party  payors  that  include  insurance
companies,  managed  healthcare  organizations  and governmental  entities.  The
Company  establishes  an  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts  based upon factors
surrounding  the credit risk of  specific  payors,  historical  trends and other
information. Management believes the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate
to provide for normal credit losses.

Assets Restricted for the Settlement of Unpaid Claims

         Assets   restricted   for  the  settlement  of  unpaid  claims  include
marketable  securities which are carried at fair market value.  Transfer of such
investments  from the insurance  subsidiaries to the Company or any of its other
subsidiaries is subject to meeting certain  criteria under the Revolving  Credit
Agreement (as defined herein) and approval by certain regulatory authorities.

         During  fiscal  1994,  the  Company  adopted   Statement  of  Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 115  "Accounting  for Certain  Investments in Debt and
Equity  Securities ("FAS 115").  Under FAS 115,  investments are classified into
three  categories:  (i) held to maturity;  (ii)  available  for sale;  and (iii)
trading.  Unrealized  holding  gains or losses  are  recorded  for  trading  and
available for sale  securities.  The  Company's  investments  are  classified as
available for sale and the adoption of FAS 115 did not have a material effect on
the Company's financial statements, financial condition and liquidity or results
of operations. The unrealized gain or loss on investments available for sale was
not material at September 30, 1994 and 1995.

Property and Equipment

         As a result of the  adoption of fresh start  accounting,  property  and
equipment  were adjusted to their  estimated  fair value as of July 31, 1992 and
historical  accumulated  depreciation was eliminated.  Expenditures for renewals
and  improvements  are  charged  to  the  property  accounts.  Replacements  and
maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the life of the respective
assets are  expensed  as  incurred.  The  Company  removes  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation from the accounts for property sold or retired, and any
resulting gain or loss is included in operations.  Amortization of capital lease
assets is  included  in  depreciation  expense.  Depreciation  is  provided on a
straight-line  basis  over  the  estimated  useful  lives of the  assets,  which
averaged  22 years for  buildings  and  improvements  and three to ten years for
equipment.  Depreciation  expense  was $25.9  million,  $27.4  million and $35.1
million for the years ended September 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.



<PAGE>



Excess Reorganization Value

         Excess  Reorganization  Value that resulted from fresh start accounting
was amortized on a straight-line basis over the three-year period ended July 31,
1995. The unamortized Excess  Reorganization Value of $58.6 million attributable
to the general  hospitals  sold on September  30, 1993 reduced the gain from the
disposal  of  such  hospitals.   Excess  Reorganization  Value  was  reduced  by
approximately  $21 million during fiscal 1993 to reflect the  recognition of tax
benefits related to pre-Plan tax loss carry forwards. (See Note 3.)

Intangible Assets

         Intangible   assets  are  composed   principally  of  goodwill,   which
represents the excess of the cost of businesses  acquired over the fair value of
the net identifiable  assets at the date of acquisition and related  non-compete
agreements.  Goodwill is generally amortized using the straight-line method over
25 to 35 years and related non-compete agreements are amortized over the term of
the agreements.

         The Company  continually  monitors events and changes in  circumstances
that  could  indicate   carrying  amounts  of  intangible   assets  may  not  be
recoverable.  When events or changes in circumstances  are present that indicate
the carrying  amount of intangible  assets may not be  recoverable,  the Company
assesses the  recoverability  of intangible  assets by  determining  whether the
carrying value of such  intangible  assets will be recovered  through the future
cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual  disposition.  No
impairment  losses on  intangible  assets were recorded by the Company in fiscal
1994 and 1993.  Impairment losses of approximately $4.0 million were recorded in
1995. (See Note 4)

Foreign Currency

         Changes in the cumulative  translation of foreign  currency  assets and
liabilities are presented as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Gains
and  losses  resulting  from  foreign  currency  transactions,  which  were  not
material, are included in operations as incurred.

Net Loss Per Common Share

         Net loss per common  share is computed  based on the  weighted  average
number of shares of common  stock  outstanding  during the period.  Common stock
equivalents  were  anti-dilutive  for the periods  presented and therefore  were
excluded from the calculation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In  March  1995,  the  Financial   Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 121 ("FAS 121") "Accounting for
the  Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed
Of," which becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995.
FAS  121  establishes  standards  for  determining  when  impairment  losses  on
long-lived  assets have occurred and how  impairment  losses should be measured.
The Company adopted FAS 121 effective  October 1, 1994. The financial  statement
impact  of  adopting  FAS 121  was  not  material.  The  application  of FAS 121
subsequent to the adoption date resulted in the Company recording  approximately
$27.0 million in impairment losses in fiscal 1995. (See Note 4.)

         In October  1995,  the FASB issued  Statement of  Financial  Accounting
Standards No. 123 ("FAS 123") "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation,"  which
becomes  effective for fiscal years  beginning  after December 15, 1995. FAS 123
establishes  new financial  accounting and reporting  standards for  stock-based
compensation  plans.  Entities will be allowed to measure  compensation cost for
stock-based  compensation  under FAS 123 or APB Opinion No. 25,  "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees."  Entities  electing to remain with the accounting in
APB Opinion No. 25 will be required to make pro forma  disclosures of net income
and earnings per share as if the  provisions  of FAS 123 had been  applied.  The
Company is in the process of  evaluating  FAS 123. The  potential  impact on the
Company of adopting the new standard has not been  quantified at this time.  The
Company must adopt FAS 123 no later than October 1, 1996.

2.  Acquisitions, Joint Ventures and Discontinued Operations

         During  fiscal  1994,  the  Company  agreed to acquire  40  psychiatric
hospitals (the "Acquired  Hospitals") from National Medical Enterprises ("NME").
The purchase price for the Acquired  Hospitals was approximately  $120.4 million
in cash plus an additional cash amount of approximately $51 million,  subject to
adjustment, for the net working capital of the Acquired Hospitals (the "Hospital
Acquisiton").  During the year ended  September 30, 1995,  the Company  received
approximately  $3.5  million  from  NME  as a  partial  payment  related  to the
settlement of the working capital portion of the purchase price.

         On June 30,  1994,  the  Company  completed  the  purchase of 27 of the
Acquired  Hospitals for a cash purchase price of  approximately  $129.6 million,
which included approximately $39.3 million,  subject to adjustment,  for the net
working  capital of the facilities.  On October 31, 1994, the Company  completed
the purchase of three additional Acquired Hospitals for a cash purchase price of
approximately $5 million,  which included  approximately $2.2 million related to
the net working  capital of the  facilities.  On November 30, 1994,  the Company
completed  the  purchase of the  remaining  ten  Acquired  Hospitals  for a cash
purchase price of  approximately  $36.8 million,  including  approximately  $9.5
million  related to the net  working  capital  of ten  Acquired  Hospitals.  The
Company  accounted  for the Hospital  Acquisition  using the purchase  method of
accounting.  The operating results of the Acquired Hospitals are included in the
Company's  Consolidated  Statements of Operations  from the respective  dates of
acquisition.

         The following  unaudited pro forma financial  information  presents the
results of operation for the Company for the years ended  September 30, 1994 and
1995 as if the Acquired Hospitals had been purchased on October 1, 1993. The pro
forma  information  does not purport to be indicative of the results which would
actually have been attained had the Hospital  Acquisition been completed on such
date or which may be attained in the future. (In thousands, except for per share
data.)

         In January 1995, the Company acquired National Mentor, Inc. ("Mentor")
by issuing 1,409,978 shares of Common Stock. Mentor provides specialized  
health services in mentor homes.  The acquisition was accounted for as a 
pooling of interests, effective January 1, 1995.  The consolidated  financial 
statements of the Company were not restated for periods  prior to January 1, 
1995,  as the effect of  restatement  would not have been material to such 
periods.

         In February 1995, the Company acquired Westwood Pembroke Health System,
which includes two psychiatric hospitals and a professional group practice.  The
Company accounted for the acquisition using the purchase method of accounting.

Joint Ventures

         The Company  entered into joint  ventures with Columbia in the Raleigh,
North  Carolina and  Albuquerque,  New Mexico  markets.  Effective May 31, 1995,
Charter Behavioral Health System of New Mexico, a subsidiary of the Company, and
New Mexico Psychiatric Company, a subsidiary of Columbia, formed Charter Heights
Behavioral Health System ("Heights"). The Company leased and contributed certain
assets of its Albuquerque Hospital to Heights in exchange for a 67% interest and
Columbia leased and contributed  certain assets of its Columbia Heights Hospital
to Heights in exchange for a 33% interest.

         Effective June 30, 1995, Charter Northridge Behavioral Health System, a
subsidiary  of the Company,  and Wake  Psychiatric  Hospital,  a  subsidiary  of
Columbia, formed the Holly Hill/Charter Behavioral Health System ("Holly Hill").
The Company leased and contributed  certain assets of its Northridge Hospital to
Holly Hill in exchange for a 50% interest  and Columbia  leased and  contributed
certain  assets of its Holly Hill  Hospital  to Holly Hill in  exchange  for the
remaining 50% interest.

Discontinued Operations

         On September 30, 1993,  the Company sold its general  hospitals and the
related assets for approximately  $338 million.  The Company retained the assets
and liabilities relating to these subsidiaries for professional liability claims
incurred and cost report settlements for periods prior to September 30, 1993. On
September 15, 1993, the Company sold its interest in Beech Street of California,
Inc. ("Beech Street").  (See Note 12) Beech Street operates  preferred  provider
networks and provides utilization review services to third parties.  Immediately
prior to the sale,  the Company owned 71.1% of the voting stock and 19.8% of the
equity  ownership  of  Beech  Street.  Summarized  results  of the  discontinued
operations were as follows (in thousands):

(1)      Included in these amounts are income taxes and interest expense related
         to  debt   specifically   identifiable  as  debt  of  the  discontinued
         operations. Such interest expense is not material.

         The net assets, results of operations and the gains on the sales of the
general  hospitals  and Beech  Street  have been  reported  in the  accompanying
financial  statements  as  discontinued  operations.  Therefore,  the  financial
statements  for the year  ended  September  30,  1993,  have been  presented  to
segregate these amounts from continuing operations.

3.  The Restructuring and Fresh Start Reporting

         The  consummation  of the Plan  discussed  in Note 1 resulted in, among
other things,  (i) a reduction of approximately  $700 million in long-term debt,
(ii)  elimination  of $233 million of preferred  stock and (iii) the issuance of
approximately  24.8 million  shares of Common  Stock to certain  holders of debt
securities, the preferred stockholders and common stockholders.

         As a result of the  consummation  of the Plan, the financing  under the
$880  Million  Credit  Agreement  between the  Company  and certain  banks dated
September 1, 1988 was replaced by new facilities  under the Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement,  dated July 21, 1992, among the Company and certain banks (the
"Credit Agreement").




<PAGE>



         Upon consummation of the Plan, the Company  recognized an extraordinary
gain  on  debt  discharge  of  approximately   $731  million  which  represented
forgiveness of debt, principal and interest, reduced by the estimated fair value
of Common Stock issued to certain  debtholders  of the  Company.  The  Company's
long-term  debt was stated at the present value of amounts to be paid,  based on
market  interest  rates on July 31,  1992.  This  adjustment  to  present  value
resulted in an aggregate carrying amount for the Company's  long-term debt which
was less than the  aggregate  principal  amount  thereof,  and  resulted  in the
amortization of the difference into interest  expense over the terms of the debt
instruments and, upon  extinguishment  of the debt prior to scheduled  maturity,
resulted in a loss on debt extinguishment.

         Under the  principles of fresh start  accounting,  the Company's  total
assets  were  recorded  at  their  assumed   reorganization   value,   with  the
reorganization  value allocated to identifiable  tangible assets on the basis of
their estimated fair value.  Accordingly,  the Company's  property and equipment
were  reduced and its  intangible  assets were  written  off. In  addition,  the
Company's  accumulated deficit,  common stock in treasury and cumulative foreign
currency  adjustments were eliminated.  The excess of the  reorganization  value
over the value of identifiable  assets was reported as "reorganization  value in
excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets" (the "Excess  Reorganization
Value").

         The total  reorganization  value  assigned to the Company's  assets was
estimated by calculating  projected cash flows before debt service requirements,
for a  five-year  period,  plus  an  estimated  terminal  value  of the  Company
(calculated  using a multiple of approximately six (6) on projected EBDIT (which
is net revenue less operating and bad debt  expenses)),  each discounted back to
its  present  value using a discount  rate of 12%  (representing  the  estimated
after-tax weighted cost of capital).  This amount was approximately $1.2 billion
and was increased by (i) the estimated net realizable value of assets to be sold
and (ii) estimated cash in excess of normal  operating  requirements.  The above
calculations resulted in an estimated reorganization value of approximately $1.3
billion,  of which the Excess  Reorganization  Value was $225 million,  of which
$129 million related to continuing  operations.  The Excess Reorganization Value
was amortized over the three-year period ended July 31, 1995.

4.  Unusual Items

Insurance Settlements

         Unusual items include resolutions of disputes between the Company and a
group of  insurance  carriers  that  arose in fiscal  1994 and 1995  related  to
medical claims paid predominantly in the 1980's. As part of the resolutions, the
Company  recorded  charges of  approximately  $37.5 million and $29.8 million in
1994 and  1995,  respectively.  The  Company  and the  insurance  carriers  will
continue to do business at the same or similar general levels. Furthermore,  the
parties will seek additional  business  opportunities that will serve to enhance
their present relationships.

         Amounts payable in future periods under the insurance settlements are 
as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>


Facility Closures

         As a result of the Hospital  Acquisition,  the Company  reassessed  its
business  strategy  in certain  markets at the end of fiscal  1994.  The Company
established a plan to consolidate services in selected markets and close or sell
certain facilities owned prior to the Hospital Acquisition. The Company recorded
a charge of $23 million in fiscal 1994  primarily to write down the property and
equipment at these facilities to their net realizable value.




<PAGE>



         During  1995,  the  Company   consolidated,   closed  or  sold  fifteen
psychiatric  facilities (the "Closed  Facilities").  The Closed  Facilities,  in
aggregate,  operated  at  unprofitable  levels  during  fiscal  1995 and, in the
opinion of management, would have continued to operate at unprofitable levels in
the  foreseeable  future.  The  Closed  Facilities  that are still  owned by the
Company will be sold, leased or used for alternative  purposes  depending on the
market conditions in each geographic area.

         The Company recorded  additional  charges of approximately $3.6 million
related to facility closures in the fourth fiscal quarter of 1995 as follows (in
thousands):

 </TABLE>

         Approximately 500 employees were terminated at the facilities closed in
the fiscal  fourth  quarter of 1995.  Severance  and related  benefits  paid and
charged  against the  resulting  liability  were  approximately  $1.3 million in
fiscal 1995.  Other exit costs paid and applied against the resulting  liability
were approximately $212,000 in fiscal 1995.

Asset Impairments

         As discussed in Note 1, the Company  adopted FAS 121 effective  October
1, 1994. During fiscal 1995, the Company recorded  impairment losses on property
and  equipment and  intangible  assets of  approximately  $23.0 million and $4.0
million, respectively. The impairment losses were primarily related to assets to
be held and used.  Such losses  resulted from changes in the manner that certain
of the  Company's  assets  will be used in future  periods  and  current  period
operating losses at certain of the Company's operating  facilities combined with
projected future  operating  losses.  Fair values of the long-lived  assets that
have been written down were determined  using the best available  information in
each individual  circumstance,  which included  quoted market price,  comparable
sales prices for similar assets or valuation  techniques utilizing present value
of estimated expected cash flows.

Other

         During fiscal 1994, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $4.5
million  related to the relocation of the Company's  executive  offices.  During
fiscal 1995, the Company  recorded a gain of approximately $3 million related to
the sale of three psychiatric hospitals.

5.  Benefit Plans

         The Company maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP"),  a
noncontributory  retirement plan that enables eligible  employees to participate
in the  ownership of the  Company.  At  September  30,  1995,  the ESOP owed the
Company approximately $38.1 million.



<PAGE>



         The Company had recorded  unearned  compensation to reflect the cost of
Common  Stock  purchased  by the ESOP  but not yet  allocated  to  participants'
accounts.  In the period that shares are  allocated or projected to be allocated
to participants,  ESOP expense is recorded and unearned compensation is reduced.
All shares have been  allocated to the  participants  as of September  30, 1995.
Interest  expense on the  remaining  portion of the debt incurred to finance the
ESOP transaction  amounted to approximately  $10.4 million,  $6.2 million and $0
for fiscal  1993,  1994 and 1995,  respectively,  and is  included  in  interest
expense in the statements of operations.

         The Internal  Revenue  Service has ruled that the ESOP qualifies  under
Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Such determination
allows the Company to deduct its  contributions  to the ESOP for federal  income
tax purposes.

         During fiscal 1992, the Company reinstated a defined  contribution plan
(the "401-K Plan"). Employee participants can elect to voluntarily contribute up
to 5% of their  compensation to the 401-K Plan.  Effective  October 1, 1992, the
Company  began  making  contributions  to  the  401-K  Plan  based  on  employee
compensation and contributions.  The Company makes a discretionary  contribution
of 2% of  each  employee's  compensation  and  matches  50% of  each  employee's
contribution  up to 3% of their  compensation.  During the years ended September
30, 1993, 1994 and 1995, the Company made  contributions of  approximately  $2.5
million, $4.9 million and $5.8 million, respectively, to the 401-K Plan.

Revolving Credit Agreement

         On May 2, 1994, the Company  entered into a Second Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement with certain financial  institutions for a five-year  reducing,
revolving credit facility in an aggregate  committed amount of $300 million (the
"Revolving Credit Agreement"). Proceeds from the Revolving Credit Agreement were
used (i) to refinance certain mortgage  indebtedness of certain  subsidiaries of
the Company in the principal amount of approximately $14.7 million and the loans
to certain subsidiaries of the Company outstanding under the Credit Agreement in
the principal amount of approximately  $46.8 million,  (ii) for continued credit
enhancement of certain currently  outstanding  variable rate demand notes issued
by or for the  benefit  of certain  subsidiaries  of the  Company  and (iii) for
working capital and other general corporate  purposes,  including to finance, in
part, the Hospital  Acquisition and to finance other permitted  acquisitions and
investments.

         The amounts  available  under the Revolving  Credit  Agreement  will be
reduced by the amounts and on the dates indicated below (in thousands):

                     175,000                 March 31, 1999
</TABLE>

         In addition to the scheduled  reductions  above,  the Revolving  Credit
Agreement  commitment  shall be reduced  (i) by an amount  equal to 70% (or if a
default  or an event of default  exists,  100%) of the net  proceeds  of certain
asset  sales,  (ii) by an amount  equal to 25% (or if a  default  or an event of
default exists,  100%) of the net proceeds of certain  issuances or sales of the
Company's capital stock or other equity interests, except that no such reduction
shall be required if the Company meets specified financial ratios and no default
or event of default has occurred and is continuing, and (iii) by an amount equal
to the  principal  amount of permitted  subordinated  indebtedness  subject to a
required  repurchase or repurchase offer by the Company as a result of any asset
sale. All such reductions  described in the foregoing  clauses (i) through (iii)
shall be applied  first on a pro rata basis to all  scheduled  reductions of the
Revolving  Credit  Agreement  other  than the last  scheduled  reduction  of the
Revolving Credit Agreement,  and thereafter to the last scheduled reduction.  On
September  29, 1995,  the Company  voluntarily  reduced the  commitment by $15.0
million.

         The  loans  outstanding  under  the  Revolving  Credit  Agreement  bear
interest (subject to certain potential adjustments) at a rate per annum equal to
(a) the sum of the Base Lending Rate plus 3/4 of 1%, or (b) at the option of the
Company,  the sum of the maximum  reserve-adjusted  one, two, three or six-month
LIBOR plus 1 3/4%. The Base Lending Rate is the higher of (x) the rate announced
from time to time as Bankers Trust Company's prime lending rate, (y) the Federal
Reserve's   reported   weekly  average  dealer  offering  rate  for  three-month
certificates of deposit,  adjusted for maximum reserves, plus 1/2 of 1%, and (z)

         Also on May 2, 1994,  the Company  issued $375 million of 11.25% Senior
Subordinated  Notes which mature on April 15, 2004 (the "Notes") and are general
unsecured  obligations  of  the  Company.  Interest  on  the  Notes  is  payable
semi-annually on each April 15 and October 15. The Notes were originally  issued
as  unregistered  securities  and later  exchanged  for  securities  which  were
registered  with the Securities and Exchange  Commission.  Due to a delay in the
registration of the notes to be exchanged,  the Company was required to increase
the  interest  rate on the Notes by 50 basis  points  per  annum for the  period
September 1, 1994 through October 21, 1994, the date of issuance of the notes to
be exchanged. Proceeds of $181.8 million from the sale of the Notes were used to
defease,  and, subsequently on June 9, 1994, to redeem the Company's outstanding
7.5%  Senior  Subordinated  Debentures  due  2003  (the  "Debentures").  Certain
remaining  proceeds were used,  along with  proceeds  from the Revolving  Credit
Agreement,  to finance the Hospital Acquisition.  The Notes are guaranteed on an
unsecured  senior  subordinated  basis  by  substantially  all of the  Company's
existing subsidiaries and certain subsidiaries created after the issuance of the
Notes.

     The Notes are not  redeemable  at the option of the Company  prior to April
15, 1999.  Thereafter,  the Notes will be subject to redemption at the option of
the Company,  in whole or in part,  at the  redemption  prices  (expressed  as a
percentage  of the  principal  amount) set forth below,  plus accrued and unpaid
interest  thereon to the  applicable  redemption  date,  if redeemed  during the

Covenants

         The Revolving  Credit Agreement and the indenture for the Notes contain
a number of restrictive covenants,  which, among other things, limit the ability
of the  Company  and certain of its  subsidiaries  to incur other  indebtedness,
engage in transactions  with affiliates,  incur liens,  make certain  restricted
payments,   and  enter  into  certain   business   combination  and  asset  sale
transactions.  The Revolving Credit Agreement also limits the Company's  ability
to incur  capital  expenditures  and  requires  the Company to maintain  certain
specified  financial  ratios.  The  Company  was in  compliance  with  all  debt
covenants at September 30, 1995.

Extraordinary Losses

         The consolidated statements of operations for the years ended September
30, 1993 and 1994 include  extraordinary  after-tax losses of approximately $8.6
and $12.6  million,  respectively,  resulting from the early  extinguishment  of
debt.  The loss during fiscal 1993 includes fees incurred upon the retirement of
the Senior Secured Notes,  certain debt under the Credit Agreement and mortgages
on the  general  hospitals  and the  write-off  of the  unamortized  discount or
premium  remaining on certain debt.  The  extraordinary  loss in fiscal 1994 was
related  to  the  defeasance  of the  Debentures  and  the  pay-off  of  certain
subsidiary  mortgages and includes the difference  between the redemption  price
and the carrying value of the Debentures and prepayment penalties related to the
subsidiary mortgages.

Leases

         The Company leases certain  hospital  facilities,  some of which may be
purchased  during the term or at  expiration  of the  leases.  The book value of
capital leased assets was approximately  $8.7 million at September 30, 1995. The
leases,  which  expire at various  dates  through  2069,  generally  require the
Company to pay all maintenance, property tax and insurance costs.

         At September 30, 1995,  aggregate  amounts of future  minimum  payments
under  operating  leases  were  as  follows:  1996 - $9.7  million;  1997 - $6.7
million;  1998  -  $5.2  million;  1999 -  $3.8  million;  2000 - $2.4  million;
subsequent to 2000 - $50.5 million.

         Rent  expense for the years  ended  September  1993,  1994 and 1995 was
$11.3 million, $11.4 million and $15.4 million, respectively.

7.  Stockholders' Equity

         Pursuant to the Company's  Restated  Certificate of Incorporation,  the
Company is authorized to issue 80 million shares of common stock, $.25 par value
per share,  and 10 million shares of preferred stock,  without par value.  Under
the terms of the Plan,  approximately  24.8 million  shares of common stock were
issued to certain holders of debt securities,  the preferred  stockholders,  and
common  stockholders.  No  shares of  preferred  stock  have  been  issued as of
September 30, 1995.

Common Stock

         The Company is prohibited from paying  dividends  (other than dividends
payable in shares of Common  Stock) on its Common  Stock  under the terms of the
Revolving Credit Agreement except under certain limited circumstances.

1992 Stock Option Plan

         The 1992 Stock Option Plan  provides for the issuance of  approximately
3.4 million  options to purchase shares of Common Stock. A summary of changes in
options outstanding and other related information is as follows:

</TABLE>

         The exercise price of certain options will be reduced upon  termination
of employment of certain optionees without cause.

         Options issued  pursuant to the 1992 Stock Option Plan are  exercisable
upon vesting and expire through  October 2000. As of September 30, 1995, 100% of
the options outstanding were vested.

         Upon the termination of the employment of the Company's former Chairman
of the Board on March 4, 1993, and under the provisions of the 1992 Stock Option
Plan,  all of the former  employee's  options  vested and the option prices were
reduced to $.25 per share. Such options totaled 2,220,336 at September 30, 1993.
As a result,  the Company recognized  approximately  $21.3 million in additional
stock option  expense  during  fiscal 1993. On December 3 and December 29, 1993,
all of the options under the 1992 Stock Option Plan held by the former  employee
were  exercised.  On December 3, 1993,  326,000  options were  exercised and the
option  exercise price was paid by reducing the number of shares issuable by the
number of shares having a fair market value equal to the option  exercise  price
(3,326 shares).  This exercise  triggered a new measurement date for the options
exercised  and,  since  the stock  price  had  increased  since  March 4,  1993,
additional  stock option  expense of $3.9 million was recognized in fiscal 1994.
The option  exercise price for the 1,894,336  options  exercised on December 29,
1993,  was paid in cash;  accordingly,  no additional  stock option  expense was
triggered.  For both of the exercises,  the former employee elected to surrender
optioned shares (approximately  570,000 shares) as consideration for the payment
of required withholding taxes of approximately $14.2 million. These withholdings
represent  the minimum  required tax  withholding  amounts  required in order to
avoid triggering a new measurement date and additional compensation expense. The
Company was  required to make  withholding  tax payments on behalf of the former
employee of  approximately  $14.2 million which was charged  against  additional
paid-in  capital.   This  charge  was  offset  by  a  tax  benefit  recorded  of
approximately  $9.4 million related to additional stock option expense allowable
for income tax purposes.

1994 Stock Option Plan

         The 1994 Stock Option Plan  provides for the issuance of  approximately
1.3 million options to purchase shares of Common Stock.  Options must be granted
on or before  December 31, 1996.  Officers and key  employees of the Company are
eligible to participate.  The options have an exercise price which  approximates
fair market value of the

</TABLE>


         Options granted under the 1994 Stock Option Plan are exercisable to the
extent  vested.  An option vests at the rate of 33-1/3% of the shares covered by
the  option on each of the  first  three  anniversary  dates of the grant of the
option if the optionee is an employee of the Company on such dates. Options must
be  exercised  no later than ten years after the date of grant.  As of September
30, 1995, 22.9% of the options outstanding were vested.

1994 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

         The 1994 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") covers 600,000 shares of
Common Stock that can be purchased by eligible employees of the Company.

         The initial offering period began on April 1, 1994 and expired on March
31, 1995. The second  offering  period began on April 1, 1995 and will end March
31, 1996. On the first date of these  offering  periods,  each  participant  was
granted an option to purchase  shares of common stock at a purchase  price equal
to 85% of the fair  value of the  Company's  common  stock on such  date.  Total
options  granted  on April 1, 1994 and April 1, 1995  were  85,115  and  41,565,
respectively,  with  option  prices of  $21.144  and  $15.831.  A total of 4,872
options were exercised at the end of the first offering period.

         Effective  August 1, 1995,  the Company  amended the ESPP to change the
option price in subsequent offering periods to the lesser of (i) 85% of the fair
value of Company  common stock on the first day of the  offering  period or (ii)
85% of the  fair  value  of the  Company's  common  stock on the last day of the
offering  period.  Holders of the options from the second  offering period as of
July 31, 1995 were given the choice of (i)  canceling  their options to purchase
shares of common stock,  (ii) exercising the option to purchase shares of common
stock at a purchase price of $15.831 or (iii) keeping their options.  A total of
11,870 options were exercised on July 31, 1995. The third offering  period began
August 1, 1995 and will end December 31, 1995. The number of options granted and
the option price of the third offering period will be determined on December 31,
1995 when the option price is known.

Directors' Stock Option Plan and Directors' Unit Award Plan

         The  Directors'  Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of options to
non-employee  members of the  Company's  Board of  Directors  to  purchase up to
175,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock,  subject to adjustments to reflect
certain  changes in  capitalization.  The options  have an exercise  price which
approximates  the fair  market  value of the Common  Stock on the date of grant.
During fiscal 1993,  100,000 options were granted at an exercise price of $14.56
per share.  During fiscal 1994,  25,000 of these  options were  exercised and an
additional  25,000  options  were  granted at an  exercise  price of $23.163 per
share.  During fiscal 1995,  25,000 options were granted at an exercise price of
$18.875 per share.




<PAGE>



         Options  granted  can be  exercised  from  the  date of  vesting  until
February 1, 2003. No options can be granted after February 4, 1998. Options vest
20% when  granted  and an  additional  20% on each  successive  February 1 for a
period of four  years,  if the  optionee  continues  to serve as a  non-employee
director on the applicable  February 1. Unvested options vest in full in certain
instances of termination.

         In addition,  during 1994,  the Company  approved the  Directors'  Unit
Award Plan (the "Unit Plan") which provides for the award of a maximum of 15,000
units (the "Units") that,  upon vesting under the terms of the Unit Plan,  would
result in the  issuance  of an  aggregate  of 15,000  shares of Common  Stock in
settlement of Units.

         The Unit Plan  provides  for the award to each  director  who is not an
employee of the Company of 2,500 Units.  Upon vesting of the Units  awarded to a
director, the Company will settle the Units by issuing to the director,  with no
exercise  price,  a number of shares of the Company's  Common Stock equal to the
number of vested Units.

Rights Plan

         Also  upon  consummation  of the  Plan,  the  Company  adopted  a Share
Purchase  Rights Plan (the "Rights  Plan").  Pursuant to the Rights  Plan,  each
share of Common Stock also  represents one Share  Purchase Right  (collectively,
the "Rights").  The Rights trade  automatically  with the  underlying  shares of
Common Stock. Upon becoming exercisable,  but prior to the occurrence of certain
events,  each  Right  initially  entitles  its holder to buy one share of Common
Stock  from the  Company at an  exercise  price of  $60.00.  The Rights  will be
distributed  and  become  exercisable  only if a person  or group  acquires,  or
announces its intention to acquire,  Common Stock exceeding  certain levels,  as
specified in the Rights Plan.  Upon the occurrence of such events,  the exercise
price of each Right reduces to one-half of the then current  market  price.  The
Rights also give the holder  certain  rights in an  acquiring  company's  Common
Stock. The Company is entitled to redeem the Rights at a price of $.01 per Right
at any time prior to the  distribution of the Rights.  The Rights have no voting
power until exercised.

Common Stock Warrants

         The Company has two series of warrants  outstanding,  the 2002 Warrants
and the 2006 Warrants.

         In connection  with the Plan,  the Company  issued  114,690 of the 2002
Warrants  to  purchase  one share  each of the  Company's  Common  Stock.  These
warrants,  which  expire on June 30, 2002,  have an exercise  price of $5.24 per
share.  During  fiscal  1994 and 1995,  37,395 and 47,392  shares  were  issued,
respectively, upon the exercise of these warrants.

     The 2006  Warrants,  which  expire on  September  1, 2006,  were subject to
certain  adjustments as a result of the Plan, and  accordingly,  146,791 of such
warrants are currently outstanding with an exercise price of $38.70 per share.

         As of September  30, 1995,  the Company has estimated tax net operating
loss ("NOL")  carryforwards  of approximately  $233 million  available to reduce
future federal taxable  income.  These NOL carry forwards expire in 2006 through
2009 and are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.  Due to the
ownership change which occurred as a result of the Restructuring,  the Company's
utilization  of NOLs  generated  prior to the  Effective  Date is  significantly
limited.  Based on these limitations and certain other factors,  the Company has
recorded a valuation allowance against the entire amount of the NOL deferred tax
asset and other  deferred  tax assets,  that in  management's  opinion,  are not
likely to be recovered.

         Effective  January 1, 1993,  the federal  statutory  corporate tax rate
increased  from 34% to 35%.  The effect of the  increase was not material to the
Company.

         The Internal  Revenue  Service is  currently  examining  the  Company's
income tax  returns for fiscal  1989  through  1992.  In  management's  opinion,
adequate  provisions  have been made for any  adjustments  which may result from
these examinations.

11.  Commitments and Contingencies

         The Company is  self-insured  for a substantial  portion of its general
and professional  liability  risks.  The reserves for  self-insured  general and
professional liability losses,  including loss adjustment expenses, are based on
actuarial  estimates  that  are  discounted  at an  average  rate of 6% to their
present value based on using the Company's historical claims experience adjusted
for current industry trends. The reserve for unpaid claims is adjusted,  as such
claims  mature,  to  reflect  revised   actuarial   estimates  based  on  actual
experience.  While management and its actuaries believe that the present reserve
is reasonable, ultimate settlement of losses may vary from the amount provided.

         In addition to general and professional  liability claims,  the Company
is subject to other claims, suits, surveys and investigations. In the opinion of
management, the ultimate resolution of such other pending legal proceedings will
not have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  financial  position  or
results of operations.




<PAGE>



         The Resolution Trust Corporation ("RTC"), for itself or in its capacity
as conservator or receivor for 12 financial institutions,  formerly held certain
debt  securities  that were issued by the Company in 1988.  RTC has indicated to
the  Company  that it  believes  that  certain  financial  statements  and other
disclosures  made  by the  Company  in  connection  with  such  debt  securities
contained materially  misleading  statements or material omissions and that such
misleading  statements or omissions  resulted in an  overvaluation  of such debt
securities.  The Company  has agreed to a tolling of the statute of  limitations
applicable  to RTC's  claims.  Based on a review of  relevant  law and the facts
known to the Company,  the Company  believes it has a  substantial  defense to a
potential  claim by RTC and that such potential  claim would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

12.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

         The Company owns 50% of the Charter Medical Building in Macon, Georgia,
and  leases  space in such  building  for  certain  corporate  offices.  Through
September 30, 1994,  the Company's  corporate  headquarters  were located in the
building  and the lease,  which  expired  September  30,  1994,  provided for an
average  annual rent of  approximately  $1.2  million.  Currently the Company is
paying approximately  $45,000 per month in rent on the building.  Mr. William A.
Fickling,  Jr., a former  Director and former Chairman of the Board of Directors
of the Company, and his father's estate own 25% of the building.  In the opinion
of  management,  such office  space was leased on terms as favorable as could be
obtained from an  unaffiliated  party.  The Company  received  distributions  of
approximately $280,000 in 1994.

         On September 15, 1993, the Company sold its ownership interest in Beech
Street to the children of Mr. Fickling for approximately $5.5 million,  plus the
right to receive  additional  consideration  if certain  events  (e.g.  a public
offering  of Beech  Street  stock or if Beech  Street  sells  50% or more of its
assets) occur within two years.  The Company  obtained a fairness  opinion by an
independent  appraisal firm stating that the financial  consideration  was fair.
The Company acquired its ownership interest in a series of related  transactions
beginning in May 1989,  for a total  purchase  price of  $2,956,000.  During the
period  of  its  ownership,   the  Company   received   $1,242,000  in  dividend
distributions from Beech Street.

         Beech Street was, prior to May 1989, a wholly owned subsidiary of Beech
Street,  Inc.,  in  which  Mr.  Fickling  beneficially  owns a  majority  of the
outstanding stock.

         The Company also has agreements with Beech Street where certain of the
Company's hospitals provide services to employers (and their related employee
and covered dependent groups) who have entered into agreements with Beech 
Street to utilize a Beech Street Preferred Provider Organization ("PPO") for
hospital and other healthcare services.  Such  agreements provide for covered 
services to be rendered under terms (including discounts from the hospital's 
normal charges) which management of the Company believes are customary for 
hospital PPO agreements.  The Beech Street PPO reviews claims and serves as an 
intermediary between the Company's hospitals and the contracting employers.  
The Company derived approximately $21.4 million, and $5.2 million in revenue 
from these agreements during fiscal 1993 and 1994,  respectively.  The 
aggregate discount from customary charges was 12% in fiscal 1993 and 19% in 
1994.

         Gerald L.  McManis,  who was elected  director on February 18, 1994, is
the President of McManis Associates,  Inc. ("MAI"), a healthcare development and
management consulting firm and a subsidiary of MMI Companies,  Inc. ("MMI"). Mr.
McManis also serves on the Board of Directors of MMI.  During fiscal 1993,  1994
and 1995,  MAI  provided  consulting  services  for the  Company  related to the
development of strategic plans and a review of the Company's business processes.
The Company incurred  approximately $1.0 million,  $1.3 million, and $158,000 in
fees for such services  during  fiscal 1993,  1994 and 1995,  respectively,  and
reimbursed MAI for approximately $128,000,  $244,000 and $21,000,  respectively,
for expenses.

13.  Subsequent Events

         On December  13,  1995,  the Company  acquired  51% of the  outstanding
Common  Stock of  Green  Spring  Health  Services,  Inc.  ("Green  Spring")  for
approximately  $73.2  million in cash and Common Stock and the  contribution  of
Group Practice Affiliates,  a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, which then
became a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Green Spring. Green Spring provides managed
behavioral healthcare services.  The Company will account for the acquisition of
Green Spring using the purchase method of accounting.


<PAGE>



         The minority  shareholders of Green Spring will have the option,  under
certain circumstances, to exchange their ownership interests in Green Spring for
approximately  3.6 million  shares of Magellan Common Stock or $81.8  million in
subordinated  notes.  The  Company  may elect to pay cash in lieu of issuing the
subordinated notes. The exchange option expires on December 13, 1998.

         On December 20, 1995, the Company  acquired an additional 10% ownership
interest in Green Spring for approximately  $16.7 million in cash as a result of
an exchange  option  exercised by certain of the minority  shareholders of Green
Spring.  The Company has a 61% ownership  interest in Green Spring subsequent to
the exercise of the aforementioned exchange option.

14.  Selected Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited)

         The following is a summary of the quarterly  results of operations  for
the years ended  September 30, 1994 and 1995.  The fourth quarter of fiscal 1994
contained  unusual charges of  approximately  $71.3 million.  The first quarter,
second  quarter and fourth  quarter of fiscal  1995  contained  unusual  charges
(income) of  approximately  ($3.0)  million,  $29.8  million and $30.6  million,
respectively. See Note 4 for an explanation of these charges.

15.  Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements

Notes to the Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements

         General - These condensed  consolidating  financial  statements reflect
the Guarantors under the Notes and the Revolving Credit Agreement consummated in
May 1994. The direct and indirect  Guarantors are wholly owned by the Company or
a Guarantor  Subsidiary  of the Company.  Separate  financial  statements of the
Guarantors are not presented  because the Guarantors are jointly,  severally and
unconditionally  liable  under  the  guarantee,  and the  Company  believes  the
condensed  consolidating  financial  statements presented are more meaningful in
understanding  the  financial  position of the Guarantor  Subsidiaries,  and the
separate financial statements are deemed not material to investors.

         Distributions  -  There  are  no  restrictions  on the  ability  of the
Guarantor Subsidiaries to make distributions to the Company.

         Transfers  from  Guarantors to  Nonguarantors  - The  Revolving  Credit
Agreement  permits the Company to contribute the assets of hospitals and related
medical  facilities  to joint  ventures  that  conduct  a  healthcare  business,
provided that certain  conditions  are  satisfied  and that the  aggregate  fair
market  value or book  value,  whichever  is  greater,  of all  such  facilities
contributed  to joint  ventures  with  respect  to  which  the  Company  and its
wholly-owned  subsidiaries do not have a majority of the equity interests or are
not  entitled  to elect or appoint  the  directors,  managers  or  trustees,  as
applicable,  does not exceed $100 million.  Furthermore,  the  Revolving  Credit
Agreement permits the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the
Revolving Credit Agreement),  subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions,
to invest up to $50 million  plus the lesser of $30 million and an amount  equal
to  "accumulated   excess  cash  flow"  (as  defined  in  the  Revolving  Credit
Agreement),  of cash and other assets (other than hospitals and related  medical
facilities)  in  subsidiaries   of  the  Company  formed  to  pursue   strategic
investments and joint ventures in managed care businesses, clinical services and
management  information  services and to invest up to $70 million through May 2,
1996 and $80 million  thereafter  in other types of  investments.  The indenture
related to the Notes also  contains  provisions  that permit the Company and its
Restricted  Subsidiaries  (as  defined in the  indenture  for the Notes) to make
investments in  non-guarantors.  The  provisions  contained in the indenture are
less restrictive than those contained in the Revolving Credit Agreement and are,
therefore,  not  relevant  to the  ability  of the  Company  and its  Restricted
Subsidiaries  to make  investments  in  non-guarantors  as long as the Revolving
Credit Agreement is in effect.

         The Company intends to make investments in Permitted Joint Ventures (as
defined in the Revolving  Credit  Agreement) and  Unrestricted  Subsidiaries (as
defined in the Revolving  Credit  Agreement) to the extent it believes  doing so
will be consistent with its business strategy.  To the extent the Company or its
Restricted Subsidiaries make investments of the type described above, the assets
available for debt payments and guarantee obligations could be diminished.

                             CMC/CORPORATE INCENTIVE PLAN
                                        FY 95

I.       PURPOSE

         The  purpose  of this  plan  is to  provide  an  incentive  to  certain
         executives  and key  employees  of the  Company who  contribute  to the
         success of the  enterprise by offering an opportunity to such person to
         earn compensation in addition to their salaries, based on the operating
         income of the Company.

II.      ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANTS

         Eligibility for participation in the Incentive Plan shall be determined
         by  management  from among those key employees who are in a position to
         materially  contribute  to the  success of the  Company.  Additionally,
         requirements for participation are outlined in Section III,  Conditions
         for Receiving Payment.

         If a person otherwise  eligible for participation in the Incentive Plan
         becomes  an  employee  of the  Company  during the  fiscal  year,  such
         employee  shall be eligible to receive a prorated  portion of an annual
         bonus  (number of  semi-monthly  pay periods of  employment  divided by
         twenty-four), subject to approval of such employee's vice president or,
         in the case of an officer, his superior's approval.

III.     CONDITIONS FOR RECEIVING PAYMENT

         Incentive compensation under the Incentive Plan is not an integral part
         of an  employee's  compensation  package.  An  employee's  base  salary
         compensates  the employee  for the  expected  results of any given job.
         Payment of incentive  compensation is at the discretion of the Board of
         Directors of CMC.

         NO INCENTIVE COMPENSATION WILL BE PAID TO ANY EMPLOYEE IF EMPLOYMENT IS
         TERMINATED, WHETHER VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY, PRIOR TO THE ACTUAL
         PAYMENT DATE. However,  the Board of Directors of CMC retains authority
         to make  exceptions to the foregoing  policy in unusual or  meritorious
         cases  including,  but not limited to, the death of an employee  during
         the fiscal year or  termination  of employment  due to total or partial
         disability or retirement with the consent of CMC.

IV.      METHOD OF ALLOCATION

         Each  participant  must meet the goals  established by  management.  In
         order to receive a bonus, each participant must be recommended for all,
         part or none of his bonus by his  superior,  with the  approval  of the
         Chairman.  Each  participant's  assigned  bonus  percentage of base pay
         corresponds to established  targets set by management.  The percentages
         are on a variable scale and  calculated on  performance to budget.  The
         various percentages of achievement are:

</TABLE>

V.       PLAN SEGMENTS

         For corporate  personnel,  the Incentive Plan consists of the following
two segments:

                  A.       Corporate budget achievement of operating income 
                           (EBITDA as defined in Section IX A)

                  B.       Department budget performance will be reviewed at the
                           end of the year by the  President of CMC.  Department
                           budget  performance review is subject up to 100% of a
                           "holdback"  review,  with such review to be conducted
                           and  performance  determined by such President in his
                           discretion.

VI.      DISTRIBUTION

         The  distribution of bonuses shall be made promptly after completion of
         unaudited  financial  statements  for the 1994 Fiscal Year or as may be
         otherwise  approved  by the  Board of  Directors.  Specific  provisions
         regarding  distribution  are  outlined in Section III,  Conditions  for
         Receiving Payment.

VII.     INTERPRETATION AND DURATION

         Any areas of question,  interpretation,  dispute,  etc., concerning any
         area of this plan shall be governed by the  Executive  Committee of the
         Company.  The  Executive  Committee  is  defined as the  Chairman,  the
         Executive  Vice  President and Chief  Financial  Officer,  and the Vice
         President of Administrative  Services. This plan shall be effective for
         the fiscal year beginning October 1, 1994. The Executive  Committee and
         the Board of Directors  each retain the authority to modify,  repeal or
         discontinue the plan.

IX.      DEFINITION OF TERMS

         A.       EBITDA

                  EBITDA is income of the Company  before (1) interest  expense,
                  (2) ESOP  expense,  (3)  depreciation  and  amortization,  (4)
                  provision  for state and federal  income  taxes,  (5) interest
                  income, (6) restructuring  charges,  (7) unusual items and (8)
                  stock option expense, subject to adjustment for the following:

                           A significant,  unexpected change in the operation of
                           the  company  as  a  result  of  condemnation,  major
                           physical  damage  from a fire or  other  catastrophe,
                           strike,  governmental  seizure,  or disruption due to
                           construction  will result in an adjustment to income.
                           This will avoid any  penalty or  windfall as a result
                           of  changes  in  capacity  to  contribute  to overall
                           parent  company  earnings which are not the result of
                           the  participant's  ability to manage the  operation.
                           This  does  not  include  changes  in Blue  Cross  or
                           governmental  reimbursement policies, loss of a prime
                           admitter,  expansion by another hospital, etc., which
                           are regarded as normal business risks.

         B.       Change in Accounting Policy or Practice

                  A material  change (from the prior year) in accounting  policy
                  or practice which has an effect on the Company's EBITDA (i.e.,
                  changes in the procedures for reserving for doubtful accounts,
                  asset sales or  acquisitions,  etc.) will be  considered as an
                  adjustment to EBITDA.  Year end  adjustments  to correct prior
                  errors or to adjust  previous  estimates and accruals will not
                  be regarded as changes in policy or practice.

"Term")  beginning on April 3, 1995 and ending , unless  earlier  terminated  in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, on April 3, 1998.

         2.       Employment of Officer.

                  (a)  Specific  Position.  Employer  and  Officer  agree  that,
subject to the  provisions of this  Agreement,  Employer will employ Officer and
Officer  will serve  Employer as Senior  Vice  President,  Clinical  Strategies.
Although  Employer may, with the consent of Officer  (which consent shall not be

level of assistants to the Chief Executive  Officer as duly determined from time

director,  agent or  employee  of any  direct or  indirect  subsidiary  or other
affiliate  of  Employer  but may not  serve as an  officer,  director,  agent or

related to such personal  business  investments)  and serve in any capacity with
any civic, educational or charitable organization, or any governmental entity or

the date of  termination)  shall  terminate upon the occurrence of (i) Officer's
resignation,  or (ii)  termination  by Employer for  "cause," as defined  below,
during  the Term.  Employer  shall  have the  right,  exercisable  upon 30 days'
written  notice,  to  terminate,  without  liability  except for base salary and
vacation days accrued through the date of termination,  Officer's employment for
"cause" if Officer (i) materially  breaches any material term of this Agreement,

business  of  the  Employer,  (iv)  engages  in  illegal  conduct  substantially
detrimental to the business or reputation of Employer.

                  (b)  Termination   Due  to  Death  or  Disability.   Officer's
employment and all of his rights to receive salary and other benefits under this
Agreement,  may be  terminated  by Employer upon  Officer's  death,  or 30 days'
written  notice from Employer to Officer,  if Officer has been unable to perform
substantially  all of his duties under this  Agreement for a period of 180 days,
or can  reasonably  be expected to be unable to do so for such period based on a
reasonable  medical  opinion,  as the result of physical  or mental  impairment;
provided that upon any  termination  pursuant to his Section 5 (b) , Officer (or
in the  event of his  death,  his  estate)  shall be  entitled  to  receive  the
Specified Amount (as defined below),  and such Specified Amount shall be payable
in a lump sum on the date of termination.  In addition to the Specified  Amount,
if Officer is terminated due to death or disability, Officer (or in the event of
his death,  his estate)  shall be entitled to receive the portion or portions of
any bonus or other  cash  incentive  compensation  that had been  accrued on the
books of Employer through the date of termination pursuant to this Section 5 (b)
with respect to Officer.

                  The term "Specified  Amount" shall mean the greater of (i) the
total of all salary  payments  pursuant to Section 3 that would  thereafter have
come due during the Term had there been no such  termination  or  resignation or
(ii) two years' salary pursuant to Section 3, (in each case as the Term may have
been extended and assuming a continuation  for the remainder of the Term of then
current salary levels).

                  (c) Termination Without Cause.  Subject to compliance with the
provisions of Section 5 (d), Employer shall have the right,  exercisable upon 30

terminated  by Employer  without  cause  pursuant to Section 5 (c),  Officer (i)
shall be entitled to receive the Specified Amount as defined in 5 (b) in cash on
the  date of such  termination;  (ii) any  stock  option  or  other  stock-based
compensation  plan shall be governed by the terms of such plans (and any related
stock  option or similar  agreements);  and (iii) the portion or portions of any
bonus or other cash incentive compensation that had been accrued on the books of
Employer through the

date of termination pursuant to this Section 5 (d) with respect to Officer shall
be paid to Officer in cash on the date of such termination.

                  (e)  Termination  Upon a Change of Control.  Officer  shall be
entitled  to  terminate  his  employment  upon a change of control  and shall be
entitled  to all of the  salary,  benefits  and other  rights  provided  in this
Agreement  (including those payments  provided under Section 5 (d) as though the
termination has been initiated by Employer  without cause upon the occurrence of
any of the following events: (a) the acquisition after the beginning of the Term
in one or more transactions, of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3  (a) (1)  under the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  as  amended  (the
"Exchange  Act")) by any  person  or  entity  (other  than  Officer  or Edwin M.
Crawford)  or any  group  of  persons  or  entities  (other  than  Officer)  who
constitute  a group  (within the  meaning of Section 13 (d) (3) of the  Exchange
Act) of any  securities  of Employer  such that as a result of such  acquisition
such  person or entity or group  beneficially  owns  (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3  (a) (1)  under  the  Exchange  Act)  more  than  50% of  Employer's  then
outstanding voting securities entitled to vote on a regular basis for a majority
of the  Board;  or (b) the sale of all or  substantially  all of the  assets  of
Employer (including, without limitation, by way of merger, consolidation,  lease
or transfer) in a transaction  (except for a sale-leaseback  transaction)  where
Employer  or the  holders of common  stock of Employer do not receive (i) voting
securities  representing  a majority of the voting  power  entitled to vote on a
regular  basis  for the  Board of  Directors  of the  acquiring  entity or of an
affiliate which controls the acquiring entity, or (ii) securities representing a
majority of the equity interest in the acquiring  entity or of an affiliate that
controls the acquiring  entity, if other than a corporation;  provided,  that if
Officer  becomes  entitled to any payments  (whether  hereunder or otherwise) by
reason of an event  described in Internal  Revenue Code Section  280G(b) (2) (A)
(i) (a "Parachute Event") that would constitute "parachute payments" (as defined
in Internal  Revenue Code Section  280G(b)  (G(2) (A)) if paid,  then  Officer's
entitlement  to such payments shall be reduced by such amount as will cause none
of such  payments  to  constitute  parachute  payments  if, and only if, the net
amount received by Officer by reason of the Parachute Event, after imposition of
all applicable taxes (including taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 4099),
would be greater after such reduction than if such reduction were not made.

                  6.       Confidentiality and Noncompetition.

                           (a)      Confidentiality.  Officer acknowledges that,
by reason of his employment  with  Employer,   he  may  learn  trade  secrets  
and  obtain  other confidential  information  concerning  the business and 
policies of Employer and its subsidiaries.  Officer agrees that, during and 
after the end of the Term, he will not voluntarily divulge or otherwise 
disclose,  directly or indirectly, any such trade secrets or other confidential
information concerning the business or policies of Employer or any of its 
subsidiaries that he may learn as a result of his employment  during the Term 
or may have learned prior to the Term, except to the extent such  information is
lawfully  obtainable from public sources or such use or disclosures is (i)
necessary to the  performance of this Agreement and in furtherance of Employer's
best interests,  (ii) required by applicable  laws, or (iii) authorized by 
Employer.

                           (b)      Noncompetition.  In order to protect any
confidential information that Officer may learn during the Term and in order to
protect any goodwill that Employer  has  earned and may earn  during the Term,
Officer  agrees  that,  if Officer voluntarily  terminates this Agreement 
during the Term, he shall not, at any  location  it the State of  Georgia,  for
a period of 12 months  after  such termination,  provide services, as employee,
officer,  director,  consultant or otherwise,  for any company,  firm or entity
that owns and operates (directly or through  subsidiaries)  more  than one  
behavioral  healthcare,  psychiatric  or substance  abuse  hospital or facility
(each,  a "Facility")  and that owns and operates  one or more  facilities  
located  in  Georgia  within  25  miles  of a generally  similar  facility 
(except for size of facility) owned and operated by Employer or a subsidiary 
and located within the State of Georgia.

                  7.       Employer Advance.  Employer agrees to advance Officer

                           (c)      Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains 
the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter of this 
Agreement, and it replaces and supersedes any prior agreements between the 
parties relating to said subject matter except for the Employment Offer dated

herein.

                           (d)      Waiver; Amendment.  No provision of this 
Agreement may be waived except by a written  agreement signed by the waiving
party. The waiver of any term or of any condition of this Agreement shall not 
be deemed to constitute the waiver of any other term or condition. This 
Agreement may be amended only by a written agreement signed by the parties.

                           (e)      Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be 
construed under and governed by the internal laws of the State of Georgia.

                           (f)      Arbitration.  Except for an action for 
injunctive relief, any disputes or controversies arising under this Agreement
shall be settled by arbitration in Atlanta,  Georgia  in  accordance  with the 
rules of the  American  Arbitration Association   relating  to  the   
arbitration   of  commercial   disputes.   The determination and findings of 
such arbitrators shall be final and binding on all parties  and may be

arbitration,  in addition to any other judgment or award,  he shall be

that the services he is obligated to render under the  provisions of this
Agreement are of a special, unique and intellectual character,  which gives
this Agreement peculiar value to Employer.  The  loss of  these  services 
cannot  be  reasonably  or  adequately compensated  in  damages in an action at
law and it would be  difficult  (if not impossible) to replace such services. 
Accordingly,  Officer agrees and consents that,  if he  materially  violates 
any  of  the  material  provisions  of  this Agreement,  including,  without 
limitation,  Section 6, Employer, in addition to any other rights and remedies 
available under this Agreement or under applicable law,  shall be entitled 
during the  remainder of the Term (and,  in the case of Section  6, after the 
Term to the extent  provided  in Section 6) to  injunctive relief,  from a  
court  of  competent  jurisdiction,  restraining  Officer  from committing  or
continuing  any  violation  of  this  Agreement,   or  from  the performance  
of  services  to any other  business  entity in  violation  of this Agreement,
or both.

                                               EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT


                    THIS  EMPLOYMENT  AGREEMENT  (this  "Agreement") is made and
entered into as of October 1, 1995 by and between Charter Medical Corporation, a
Delaware Corporation ("Employer"), and E. Mac Crawford
("Officer").

                    WHEREAS,  Employer desires to obtain the continued  services
of Officer and Officer desires to continue to render services to Employer; and

                    WHEREAS,  Employer and Officer desire to set forth the terms
and conditions of Officer's employment with Employer under this Agreement;

                    NOW,  THEREFORE,  in consideration of the foregoing recitals
and of the mutual  covenants and  agreements  contained in this  Agreement,  the
parties agree as follows:

                    1. Term.  Employer  agrees to employ  Officer,  and  Officer
agrees to serve Employer, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,  for a
term (the "Term")  beginning on the date of this  Agreement  and ending,  unless
earlier  terminated in accordance  with the  provisions  of this  Agreement,  on
December 31, 1997.

                    2.       Employment of Officer.

                             (a)     Specific Position.  Employer and Officer 
agree that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement,  Employer will employ 
Officer and Officer will serve Employer as Chairman of the Board of Directors,
President and Chief Executive  Officer.  Employer agrees that Officer's  duties
under this Agreement shall be the usual and customary  duties of a Chief
Executive  Officer and,  consistent with the foregoing,  as are determined from
time to time by the Board of Directors of Employer (the "Board"), and shall not
be inconsistent with the  provisions of the  Certificate of  Incorporation  of
Employer or applicable law.

                             (b)     Promotion of Employer's Business.  During
the Term, Officer shall devote his full business time and energy to the


                                                        -1-

business,  affairs and interests of Employer and related matters,  and shall use
his best efforts and abilities to promote Employer's  interests.  Officer agrees
that he will  diligently  endeavor  to  perform  services  contemplated  by this
Agreement in accordance with the policies  established by the Board,  subject to
the provisions of the second sentence of Section 2(a).

                             (c)     Permitted Activities.  Officer may serve 
as an officer,  director,  agent or employee of any direct or indirect  
subsidiary  or other affiliate of Employer but may not serve as an officer,  
director, agent or employee of any other business  enterprise  without the 
written  approval of the Board; provided,  that Officer may make and manage 
personal business investments of his choice (and,  in so doing,  may serve as
an officer,  director,  agent or employee of entities and business  enterprises
that are related to such personal business  investments) and serve in any
capacity with any civic,  educational or charitable  organization,  or any
governmental  entity  or  trade  association, without  seeking or  obtaining
such  written  approval  of the  Board,  if such activities  and services do
not  significantly  interfere  or conflict  with the performance of his duties
under this Agreement.

                             (d)     Principal Office.  Officer's principal 
office and normal place of work shall be at Employer's principal executive
offices.

                    3. Salary. Employer shall pay Officer a salary in the amount
of $600,000 per year (pro-rated for any partial year during the Term) payable in
equal  semi-monthly  installments,  less state and federal tax and other legally
required and  Officer-authorized  withholdings.  Such salary shall be subject to
review  and  adjustment  by the Board (or a Board  Committee)  from time to time
consistent with past practice;  provided, that, during the Term, such salary may
not be reduced below any previous level paid during the Term as a result of such
review.

                    4.       Contract Bonus Compensation.  On December 31, 1997,
Employer shall pay in cash to Officer $10 million minus the amount
determined under the next two  paragraphs, whichever is applicable.

                    If, on December 31, 1997, Officer has not exercised, between
the date of this Agreement and December 31, 1997, any options held by Officer on
the date of this Agreement  under  Employer's  1992 Stock Option Plan,  then the
amount shall be the result obtained by

                                                    Execution Copy


multiplying (i) 462,990 (the number of options held by Officer as of the date of
this Agreement  under  Employer's  1992 Stock Option Plan) by (ii) the excess of
the lesser of (A)  $18.00 and (B) the  arithmetic  average of the  closing  sale
price per share of Employer's Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange (or if
the Common Stock is not then traded on such  exchange,  on the largest  national
securities  exchange  on which the Common  Stock is then  traded or, if not then
traded on a national securities exchange,  on the NASD market in or on which the
Common Stock is then traded) for the ten trading days immediately  preceding the
date of payment, over (iii) $4.36.

                    If, on December 31, 1997, Officer has exercised, between the
date of this Agreement and December 31, 1997, any of such options held by him on
the date of this Agreement,  then the amount shall be the sum of (a) and (b), as
follows:

                             (a) the  result  obtained  by  multiplying  (i) the
           number of options held by Officer on the date of this Agreement under
           Employer's  1992  Stock  Option  Plan,  which  options  have not been
           exercised as of December  31, 1997,  by (ii) the excess of the lesser
           of (A) and (B) in the  immediately-preceding  paragraph,  over  (iii)
           $4.36.

                             (b) the  result  obtained  by  multiplying  (i) the
           number of options held by Officer on the date of this Agreement under
           Employer's  1992 Stock Option Plan,  which  options are  exercised by
           Officer  between the date of this Agreement and December 31, 1997, by
           (ii) the excess of $18 over $4.36, or $13.64.

                    If, prior to the date of payment pursuant to this Section 4,
Employer  effects a change in  capitalization,  as  described  in  Section 10 of
Employer's  1992 Stock Option Plan,  then the number and dollar  amounts in (i),
(ii)(A) and (iii) in the second  paragraph of this Section 4 and in (i) and (ii)
of the  third  paragraph  of this  Section  4 shall be  adjusted  in the  manner
provided  in Section 10 of  Employer's  1992 Stock  Option Plan (as such plan is
worded on the date of this Agreement).

                    A change in the per  share  exercise  price of such  options
pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Stock Option Agreement, dated as of

July 21, 1992,  between Employer and Officer shall not affect the amount payable
to Officer under this Section 4.

                    5.       Benefits.

                             (a)     Fringe Benefits.  In addition to the
compensation  provided for in Sections 3 and 4, Officer shall be entitled during
the Term of this Agreement to such other benefits of employment with Employer as
are now or may  hereafter be in effect for (i) salaried  officers of Employer or
(ii) senior executives of Employer,  including,  without limitation,  all bonus,
incentive  and deferred  compensation,  pension,  stock  option,  life and other
insurance,  disability  (insured  and  uninsured),  medical and dental and other
benefit plans or programs; provided, that bonuses, life insurance and disability
insurance  for  Officer  during the Term shall be in amounts  and on other terms
that are not less and no less  favorable  than those  provided,  on average,  by
comparable hospital management companies for a comparable officer position.

                             (b)     Expenses.  During the Term, Employer shall
reimburse Officer promptly for all reasonable  travel,  entertainment,  parking,
business  meeting and similar  expenditures  in  pursuance  and  furtherance  of
Employer's  business  upon receipt of  reasonable  supporting  documentation  as
required by Employer's policies applicable to its officers generally.


                    6.       Termination.

                             (a)  Termination Due to Resignation and Termination
For Cause.  (1) Officer's  employment  under this Agreement  shall be terminated
and,  except as provided in this Section 6, all of his rights to receive  salary
and other benefits (except for salary,  bonus and other benefits accrued through
the date of  termination)  shall  terminate upon the occurrence of (i) Officer's
resignation  other than for "good  reason," as defined in Section  6(e), or (ii)
termination by Employer for "cause," as defined below, during the Term. Employer
shall have the right,  exercisable  upon 30 days' written notice,  to terminate,
without  liability  except as provided  in the  parenthetical  in the  preceding
sentence,  Officer's  employment for "cause" if Officer (i) materially  breaches
any material term of this  Agreement,  (ii) is convicted by a court of competent

under this Agreement in a manner substantially detrimental to the business of

the Employer,  (iv) engages in illegal or other wrongful  conduct  substantially
detrimental  to the  business or  reputation  of  Employer,  or (v)  develops or
pursues interests  substantially adverse to Employer;  provided that in the case
of clauses (i),  (iii),  (iv),  or (v), no such  termination  shall be effective
unless (1) Employer  shall have given Officer 30 days' prior  written  notice of
any conduct or  deficiency  in  performance  by Officer that  Employer  believes
could, if not  discontinued or corrected,  lead to Officer's  termination  under
this Section 6(a) in order that Officer  shall have had an  opportunity  to cure
such noncomplying  conduct or performance,  and (2) Officer shall not have cured
such noncomplying conduct or performance during such notice period.

                             (2)  If this Agreement is terminated due to
Officer's resignation  other than for "good  reason" as  defined  in  Section 
6(e),  then Employer shall pay to Officer,  in addition to any amounts  payable
pursuant to Section  6(a)(1),  an amount equal to the result obtained by
multiplying (i) the number  of  options  held by  Officer  as of the date of
this  Agreement,  which options have not been  exercised by Officer  between 
the date of this  Agreement and the date of such  termination of this Agreement
by (ii) the excess,  if any, of (A) $18.00  over (B) the  arithmetic  average
of the  closing  sale price per share of  Employer's  Common  Stock on the  
American  Stock  Exchange  (or other exchange or market,  as described in the 
second  paragraph of Section 4) for the ten trading days immediately preceding
the date of termination.

                             (b)     Termination Due to Death or Disability.
Officer's  employment and all of his rights to receive salary and other benefits
under this Agreement may be terminated by Employer upon Officer's  death,  or on
30 days'  written  notice from Employer to Officer if Officer has been unable to
perform substantially all of his duties under this Agreement for a period of 180
days, or can  reasonably  be expected to be unable to do so for such period,  as
the result of physical or mental impairment;  provided that upon any termination
pursuant  to this  Section  6(b),  Officer  (or in the event of his  death,  his
estate)  shall be entitled to receive the Specified  Amount (as defined  below),
and  such  Specified  Amount  shall  be  payable  in a lump  sum on the  date of
termination.  In addition to the Specified  Amount, if Officer is terminated due
to death or disability, Officer (or in the event of his death, his estate) shall


                                                        -5-

be  entitled  to  receive  the  portion or  portions  of any bonus or other cash
incentive  compensation  that had been  accrued  with  respect to Officer on the
books of Employer through the date of termination  pursuant to this Section 6(b)
or otherwise.

                             The term "Specified Amount" shall mean the sum of
(x) the greater of (i) the total of all salary  payments  pursuant to Section 3
that would  thereafter  have  come  due  during  the  Term  had  there  been  no
such termination or  resignation  or (ii) three years' salary  pursuant to
Section 3, (in each case as the same may have been extended and assuming a
continuation for the  remainder  of the Term of then  current  salary  levels)
and (y) the amount payable to Officer on December 31, 1997,  pursuant to Section
4, except that the references in Section 4 to "December  31, 1997" shall be
changed to the date of termination of this Agreement.

                             (c)     Termination Without Cause.  Subject to
compliance  with the provisions of Section 6(d),  Employer shall have the right,
exercisable on 30 days' written notice, to terminate Officer's  employment under
this Agreement without cause at any time during the Term.

                             (d)     Payments Upon Termination Without Cause.  
If Officer is  terminated  by Employer  without  cause  pursuant  to Section  
6(c), Officer (i) shall be entitled  to receive  the  Specified  Amount in cash
on the date  of  such   termination;   (ii)  any  stock  option  or  other  
stock-based compensation  plan shall be governed by the terms of such plans 
(and any related stock  option or similar  agreements);  and (iii) the portion
or portions of any bonus or other cash incentive compensation that had been 
accrued with respect to Officer on the books of  Employer  through the date of
termination  pursuant to this Section  6(d) or otherwise  shall be paid to 
Officer in cash on the date of such termination.

                             (e)     Termination By Officer For Good Reason.  
Officer shall be entitled to  terminate  his  employment  for "good  reason" 
and in such event shall be entitled to all of the salary, benefits and other 
rights provided in this Agreement as though the  termination  was initiated by 
Employer  without "cause".  For purposes of this  Agreement,  "good  reason" 
shall mean any of the following  events,  which event shall  continue  for 30 
days after notice to the Employer, unless the event occurs with Officer's 
express prior written consent:

                              (i)   the assignment to Officer of any duties
         inconsistent  with his status as  Chairman  of the Board of  Directors,
         President  and Chief  Executive  Officer of Employer  or a  substantial
         alteration in the nature or status of his  responsibilities  from those
         in effect immediately prior to the date of this Agreement;

                              (ii)  a reduction by Employer in Officer's annual
         base salary as in effect from time to time during the Term;

                              (iii) the failure by Employer to comply with
         Section 3 or Section 5; or

                              (iv)  any other material breach of this Agreement
         by Employer.

                           (f)      Termination Upon a Change of Control.  
Officer shall be entitled to terminate his employment upon a change of control 
and shall be entitled to (i) all of the salary, benefits and other rights 
provided in this Agreement  (including those payments  provided under Section 
6(d)) as though the termination  has been initiated by Employer  without cause,
and (ii) a Gross-Up Payment (as  defined),  to the extent  provided by the 
second  paragraph of this Section  6(f),  upon the  occurrence  of any of the
following  events:  (a) the acquisition after the date of this Agreement,  in 
one or more  transactions,  of beneficial   ownership  (within  the  meaning  
of  Rule  13d-3(a)(1)  under  the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act")) by any person or entity (other than  Officer) or any 
group of persons or entities  (other than Officer) who  constitute a group 
(within the meaning of Section  13(d)(3) of the Exchange  Act) of any  
securities  of  Employer  such  that as a result  of such acquisition such 
person or entity or group beneficially owns (within the meaning of Rule  
13d-3(a)(1)  under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of  Employer's  then 
outstanding voting securities entitled to vote on a regular basis for a
majority of the  Board;  or (b) the sale of all or  substantially  all of the  
assets  of Employer (including, without limitation, by way of merger,
consolidation,  lease or transfer) in a transaction  where  Employer or the 
holders of common stock of Employer  do not receive (i) voting  securities  
representing  a majority of the voting power  entitled to vote on a regular  
basis for the Board of Directors of the acquiring entity or of an affiliate 
which controls

the acquiring entity,  or (ii) securities  representing a majority of the equity
interests in the acquiring entity or of an affiliate that controls the acquiring
entity, if other than a corporation.

                           A Gross-Up Payment (as defined) shall be payable upon
termination  of  employment  pursuant to this Section 6(f) on and subject to the
following terms and conditions:

                           (1)  If any payment or other benefit (a "Termination
Payment")  to Officer  under this  Section 6(f) is or will be subject to the tax
(the "Excise Tax") imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as  amended  (the  "Code"),  Employer  shall  pay to  Officer,  at the  time the
applicable  Termination  Payment is made,  an additional  amount (the  "Gross-Up
Payment") such that the net amount  retained by Officer,  after deduction of any
Excise Tax on such Termination  Payment and any federal,  state and local income
tax and  Excise  Tax on the  Gross-Up  Payment,  shall be equal to the amount or
value of such Termination  Payment. For purposes of determining whether any such
Termination  Payment  will be subject to the Excise Tax,  any other  payments or
benefits  received  or to be  received  by Officer in  connection  with an event
giving  rise to a  Termination  Payment  (whether  pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement or any other plan,  arrangement or agreement  with Employer,  with any
person whose actions result in a change in control or with any person affiliated
with Employer or such person) shall be treated as  "parachute  payments"  within
the  meaning  of  Section  280G(b)(2)  of the Code,  and all  "excess  parachute
payments" within the meaning of Section  280G(b)(1) of the Code shall be treated
as being subject to the Excise Tax. The amount of the  Termination  Payment that
shall be  treated  as  subject to the Excise Tax shall be equal to the lesser of
(i) the total  amount of the  Termination  Payment  or (ii) the amount of excess
parachute payments within the meaning of Sections 280G(b)(1) and (4) of the Code
(after  applying the  immediately  preceding  sentence).  The full amount of the
Gross-Up  Payment shall be treated as being subject to the Excise Tax. The value
of any non-cash  benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined
in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.

                           (2)  For purposes of determining the amount of any
Gross-Up  Payment,  Officer  shall be deemed to pay federal  income taxes at the
highest  marginal rate of federal income  taxation in the calendar year in which
the  applicable  Termination  Payment or Gross-Up  Payment is made, and shall be
deemed to pay state and local income

taxes at the highest marginal rates of taxation in the state and locality of his
residence on the date the applicable  Termination Payment or Gross-Up Payment is
made,  net of the  maximum  reduction  in  federal  income  taxes  that could be
obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes.

                           (3)  If the Excise Tax or income tax payable with
respect to a Gross-Up  Payment as finally  determined  exceeds the amount  taken
into account or paid to Officer at the time the applicable  Termination  Payment
or Gross-Up Payment is made (including by reason of any payment the existence or
amount of which  cannot be  determined  at the time of the  applicable  Gross-Up
Payment),  Employer shall make an additional Gross-Up Payment in respect of such
excess (plus any interest payable by Officer with respect to such excess) at the
time that the amount of such excess is finally determined.

                  7.       Confidentiality and Noncompetition.

                           (a)  Confidentiality.  Officer acknowledges that, by
reason of his employment  with  Employer,  he may learn trade secrets and obtain
other confidential  information concerning the business and policies of Employer
and its  subsidiaries.  Officer agrees that he will not  voluntarily  divulge or
otherwise  disclose,  directly or  indirectly,  any such trade  secrets or other
confidential  information concerning the business or policies of Employer or any
of its subsidiaries  that he may learn as a result of his employment  during the
Term  or may  have  learned  prior  to the  Term,  except  to  the  extent  such
information is lawfully obtainable from public sources or such use or disclosure
is (i) necessary to the  performance  of this  Agreement and in  furtherance  of
Employer's best interests, (ii) required by applicable laws, or (iii) authorized
by Employer.

                           (b)      Noncompetition.  In order to protect any
confidential  information that Officer may learn during the Term and in order to
protect  any  goodwill  that  Employer  has earned and may earn during the Term,
Officer agrees that, if Officer  voluntarily  terminates this Agreement  without
good  reason  during the Term,  he shall not,  at any  location  in the State of
Georgia, for a period of 12 months after such termination,  provide services, as
employee,  officer,  director,  consultant  or  otherwise,  which  services  are
substantially similar to the hospital management company chief

executive  officer services  performed by Officer under this Agreement,  for any
company,   firm  or  entity  that  owns  and   operates   (directly  or  through
subsidiaries)  more than one  hospital  and that owns and  operates  one or more
psychiatric   hospitals  located  in  Georgia  within  25  miles  of  a  similar
(psychiatric)  hospital  owned and operated by Employer  and located  within the
State of Georgia.

                  8.       Miscellaneous.

                           (a)      Succession.  This  Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of and shall be binding upon Employer,  its successors and assigns,
but Employer  shall not have the right to assign  this  Agreement  without the
prior written  consent of Officer.  The  obligations  and duties of Officer 
under this Agreement shall be personal and not assignable.

                           (b)      Notices.  Any notice, request, instruction 
or other document to be given under this Agreement by any party to the others 
shall be in writing and  delivered  in person or by courier,  telegraphed,  
telexed or sent by facsimile  transmission  or mailed by certified mail,  
postage  prepaid, return receipt requested (such mailed notice to be effective
on the date of such receipt is acknowledged), as follows:

or to such other place and with such other copies as either party may  designate
as to itself by written notice to the others.

                           (c)      Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains

supersedes any prior agreements between the parties relating to said
subject matter.

                           (d)      Waiver; Amendment.  No provision of this
Agreement  may be waived  except by a written  agreement  signed by the  waiving
party. The waiver of any term or of any condition of this Agreement shall not be
deemed to constitute  the waiver of any other term or condition.  This Agreement
may be amended only by a written agreement signed by the parties.

                           (e)      Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be
construed under and governed by the internal laws of the State of
Georgia.

                           (f)      Arbitration.  Except for an action for
injunctive  relief,  any disputes or controversies  arising under this Agreement
shall be settled by arbitration in Atlanta, Georgia in accordance with the rules
of  the  American  Arbitration   Association  relating  to  the  arbitration  of
commercial disputes. The determination and findings of such arbitrators shall be
final and binding on all  parties  and may be  enforced,  if  necessary,  in the
courts of the State of Georgia.

                           (g)      Attorneys' Fees in Action by Employee on
Contract. In the event of litigation or arbitration between Officer and Employer
arising  out of or as a result  of this  Agreement  or the  acts of the  parties
pursuant to this Agreement,  or seeking an interpretation of this Agreement,  if
Officer is the party in such litigation or arbitration, in addition to any other
judgment or award,  he shall be  entitled  to receive  such sums as the court or
panel hearing the matter shall find to be reasonable as and for attorneys' fees.

                           (h)      Remedies of Employer.  Officer acknowledges
that the services he is obligated to render under the  provisions  of this  
Agreement are of a special, unique and intellectual character,  which gives 
this Agreement peculiar value to Employer.  The loss of these services  cannot 
be reasonably or adequately  compensated in damages in an action at law and it 
would be difficult (if not  impossible) to replace such services.  Accordingly,
Officer agrees and consents that, if he materially violates any of the material
provisions of 


                                                       -11-

this Agreement,  including, without limitation, Section 7, Employer, in addition
to any other  rights  and  remedies  available  under  this  Agreement  or under
applicable  law, shall be entitled during the remainder of the Term (and, in the
case of Section 7, after the Term to the extent  provided  in Section 7) to seek
injunctive relief, from a court of competent  jurisdiction,  restraining Officer
from  committing or  continuing  any  violation of this  Agreement,  or from the
performance of services to any other business entity, or both.

                           (i)      Captions.  Captions have been inserted 
solely for the  convenience  of reference  and in no way define,  limit or
describe the scope or substance of any provisions of this Agreement.

                           (j)      Severability.  If this Agreement shall be 
any reason be or become  unenforceable by any party,  this Agreement shall 
thereupon terminate  and become  unenforceable  by the other  party as well.  
In all other respects,  if any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or  
unenforceable, the  remainder of this  Agreement  shall  nevertheless  remain 
in full force and effect and, if any  provision if held invalid or  
unenforceable  with respect to particular circumstances,  it shall nevertheless
remain in full force and effect in all other circumstances.

                           (k)      Prior Employment Agreement.  The July 21, 
1992, Employment Agreement,  if not previously  terminated,  shall terminate as
of the date of this Agreement.

                  IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the parties have executed this Agreement
as of the date first above written.

         WHEREAS,  Employer  and  Officer  desire  to set  forth  the  terms and
conditions of Officer's employment with Employer under this Agreement; and

         NOW,  THEREFORE,  in consideration of the foregoing recitals and of the
mutual covenants and agreements  contained in this Agreement,  the parties agree
as follows:

         1.        Term.  Employer  agrees to employ  Officer,  and Officer 
agrees to serve Employer,  in  accordance  with the  terms of this  Agreement,
for a term  (the "Term")  beginning on March 1, 1995 and ending , unless  
earlier  terminated  in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, on
February 28, , 2000.

         2.       Employment of Officer.

                  (a)  Specific  Position.  Employer  and  Officer  agree  that,
subject to the  provisions of this  Agreement,  Employer will employ Officer and
Officer will serve  Employer as Executive V.P.  Although  Employer may, with the
consent of Officer (which consent shall not be  unreasonably  withheld),  change
Officer's  title,  Employer agrees that Officer's  duties hereunder shall be the
usual and  customary  duties of the most senior level of assistants to the Chief
Executive Officer as duly determined from time to time by the Board of Directors
of Employer (the "Board") or the Chief Executive Officer.

                  (b) Promotion of Employer's Business. During the Term, Officer
shall  devote his full  business  time and energy to the  business,  affairs and
interests of Employer and related matters,  including those permitted in Section

interests.  Officer agrees that he will diligently  endeavor to perform services
contemplated  by this Agreement in accordance  with the policies  established by
the Chief Executive Officer and the Board.

director,  agent or  employee  of any  direct or  indirect  subsidiary  or other
affiliate  of  Employer  but may not  serve as an  officer,  director,  agent or
employee of any other business  enterprise  without the written  approval of the
Board or the Chief Executive Officer; provided, that Officer may make and

manage personal business  investments of his choice (and, in so doing, may serve
as an officer,  director, agent or employee of entities and business enterprises
that  are  related  to such  personal  business  investments)  and  serve in any
capacity  with  any  civic,  educational  or  charitable  organization,  or  any
governmental  entity or trade  association,  without  seeking or obtaining  such

willfully performs his duties hereunder in a manner substantially detrimental to
the business of the  Employer,  (iv)  intentionally  engages in illegal  conduct
substantially  detrimental  to the business or  reputation  of Employer,  or (v)
develops or pursues interests substantially adverse to Employer.

                  (b)  Termination   Due  to  Death  or  Disability.   Officer's
employment and all of his rights to receive salary and other benefits under this
Agreement,  may be  terminated  by Employer upon  Officer's  death,  or 30 days'
written  notice from Employer to Officer,  if Officer has been unable to perform
substantially  all of his duties under this  Agreement for a period of 180 days,
or can  reasonably  be  expected to be unable to do so for such  period,  as the
result of  physical or mental  impairment;  provided  that upon any  termination
pursuant  to his  Section 5 (b) ,  Officer  (or in the event of his  death,  his
estate)  shall be entitled to receive the Specified  Amount (as defined  below),
and  such  Specified  Amount  shall  be  payable  in a lump  sum on the  date of
termination.  In addition to the Specified  Amount, if Officer is terminated due
to death or disability, Officer (or in the event of his death, his estate) shall
be  entitled  to  receive  the  portion or  portions  of any bonus or other cash
incentive  compensation  that had been accrued on the books of Employer  through
the date of termination pursuant to this Section 5 (b) with respect to Officer.

                  The term "Specified  Amount" shall mean the greater of (i) the
total of all salary  payments  pursuant to Section 3 that would  thereafter have
come due during the Term had there been no such  termination  or  resignation or
(ii) two years' salary pursuant to Section 3, (in each case as the Term may have
been extended and assuming a continuation  for the remainder of the Term of then
current salary levels).

                  (c) Termination Without Cause.  Subject to compliance with the
provisions of Section 5 (d), Employer shall have the right,  exercisable upon 30
days' written notice,  to terminate  Officer's  employment  under this Agreement
without cause at any time during the Term.

                  (d) Payments Upon  Termination  Without  Cause.  If Officer is
terminated  by Employer  without  cause  pursuant to Section 5 (c),  Officer (i)
shall be entitled to receive the Specified Amount as defined in Section 5 (b) in
cash on the date of such termination subject to the provisions of Section 5 (f);
(ii) any stock option or other  stock-based  compensation plan shall be governed
by the terms of such plans (and any related stock option or similar agreements);
and  (iii)  the  portion  or  portions  of any  bonus  or other  cash  incentive
compensation  that had been accrued on the books of Employer through the date of
termination pursuant to this Section 5 (d) with respect to Officer shall be paid
to Officer in cash on the date of such termination.

                  (e)  Termination  Upon a Change of Control.  Officer  shall be
entitled  to  terminate  his  employment  upon a change of control  and shall be
entitled  to all of the  salary,  benefits  and other  rights  provided  in this

occurrence  of any of the  following  events:  (a)  the  acquisition  after  the
beginning  of the  Term in one or more  transactions,  of  beneficial  ownership
(within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 (a) (1) under the  Securities  Exchange Act of
1934,  as amended  (the  "Exchange  Act")) by any person or entity  (other  than
Officer or Edwin M.  Crawford)  or any group of persons or entities  (other than
Officer) who constitute a group (within the meaning of Section 13 (d) (3) of the
Exchange  Act) of any  securities  of  Employer  such  that as a result  of such
acquisition such person or entity or group beneficially owns (within the meaning
of Rule 13d-3 (a) (1) under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of  Employer's  then
outstanding voting securities entitled to vote on a regular basis for a majority
of the  Board;  or (b) the sale of all or  substantially  all of the  assets  of
Employer (including, without limitation, by way of merger, consolidation,  lease
or transfer) in a transaction  (except for a sale-leaseback  transaction)  where
Employer  or the  holders of common  stock of Employer do not receive (i) voting
securities  representing  a majority of the voting  power  entitled to vote on a
regular  basis  for the  Board of  Directors  of the  acquiring  entity or of an
affiliate which controls the acquiring entity, or (ii) securities representing a
majority of the equity interest in the acquiring  entity or of an affiliate that
controls the acquiring  entity, if other than a corporation;  provided,  that if
Officer  becomes  entitled to any payments  (whether  hereunder or otherwise) by
reason of an event  described in Internal  Revenue Code Section  280G(b) (2) (A)
(i) (a "Parachute Event") that would constitute "parachute payments" (as defined
in Internal  Revenue Code Section  280G(b)  (G(2) (A)) if paid,  then  Officer's
entitlement  to such payments shall be reduced by such amount as will cause none
of such  payments  to  constitute  parachute  payments  if, and only if, the net
amount received by Officer by reason of the Parachute Event, after imposition of
all applicable taxes (including taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 4099),
would be greater after such reduction than if such reduction were not made.

                  (f) In the event that Officer is terminated  without cause and
in the event  that  Officer's  salary has been  reduced  to an amount  less than
$350,000 per year,  the  calculation  of any amounts due under Section 5 (d) (i)
shall be calculated  using a base salary of $350,000 per year (pro-rated for any
partial year during the Term).

         6.       Confidentiality and Noncompetition.

                  (a)  Confidentiality.  Officer acknowledges that, by reason of
his  employment  with  Employer,  he may learn trade  secrets  and obtain  other
confidential  information  concerning  the business and policies of Employer and
its subsidiaries.  Officer agrees that, during and after the end of the Term, he
will not voluntarily divulge or otherwise disclose,  directly or indirectly, any
such trade secrets or other confidential  information concerning the business or
policies of Employer or any of its subsidiaries that he may learn as a result of
his employment  during the Term or may have learned prior to the Term, except to
the extent such  information is lawfully  obtainable from public sources or such
use or disclosures is (i) necessary to the  performance of this Agreement and in
furtherance of Employer's best interests,  (ii) required by applicable  laws, or
(iii) authorized by Employer.

                  (b)  Noncompetition.  In order  to  protect  any  confidential
information  that  Officer may learn during the Term and in order to protect any
goodwill that Employer has earned and may earn during the Term,  Officer  agrees
that, if Officer voluntarily terminates this Agreement during the Term, he shall
not, at any  location it the State of Georgia,  for a period of 12 months  after
such termination,  provide services, as employee, officer, director,  consultant
or otherwise,  for any company,  firm or entity that owns and operates (directly
or through  subsidiaries)  more than one behavioral  healthcare,  psychiatric or
substance  abuse  hospital or facility  (each,  a "Facility")  and that owns and
operates  one or more  facilities  located  in  Georgia  within  25  miles  of a
generally  similar  facility (except for size of facility) owned and operated by
Employer or a subsidiary and located within the State of Georgia.

         7.       Miscellaneous.

                  (a)  Succession.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of
and shall be binding upon Employer,  its  successors  and assigns,  but Employer
shall not have the right to assign  this  Agreement  without  the prior  written
consent of Officer.  The  obligations and duties of Officer under this Agreement
shall be personal and not assignable.

                  (b)  Notices.  Any  notice,  request,   instruction  or  other

                  (c)      Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the 
entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter of this 
Agreement, and it replaces and supersedes any prior agreements between the 
parties relating to said subject matter.

                  (d) Waiver;  Amendment.  No provision of this Agreement may be
waived except by a written  agreement signed by the waiving party. The waiver of
any term or of any condition of this Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute
the waiver of any other term or condition. This Agreement may be amended only by
a written agreement signed by the parties.


                  (e)      Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed 
under and governed by the internal laws of the State of Georgia.

                  (f) Arbitration.  Except for an action for injunctive  relief,
any disputes or  controversies  arising under this Agreement shall be settled by
arbitration  in Atlanta,  Georgia in  accordance  with the rules of the American
Arbitration  Association relating to the arbitration of commercial disputes. The
determination and findings of such arbitrators shall be final and binding on all
parties  and may be  enforced,  if  necessary,  in the  courts  of the  State of
Georgia.

                  (g) Attorneys' Fees in Action by Employee on Contract.  In the
event of litigation or arbitration  between Officer and Employer  arising out of
or as a result of this  Agreement  or the acts of the  parties  pursuant to this
Agreement,  or seeking an  interpretation  of this Agreement,  if Officer is the
prevailing  party in such  litigation or  arbitration,  in addition to any other
judgment or award,  he shall be  entitled  to receive  such sums as the court or
panel hearing the matter shall find to be reasonable as and for attorneys' fees.

                  (h)  Remedies  of  Employer.  Officer  acknowledges  that  the
services he is obligated to render under the provisions of this Agreement are of
a special,  unique  and  intellectual  character,  which  gives  this  Agreement
peculiar value to Employer.  The loss of these services  cannot be reasonably or
adequately  compensated in damages in an action at law and it would be difficult
(if not  impossible) to replace such services.  Accordingly,  Officer agrees and
consents that, if he materially  violates any of the material provisions of this
Agreement,  including,  without limitation,  Section 6, Employer, in addition to
any other rights and remedies available under this Agreement or under applicable
law,  shall be entitled  during the  remainder of the Term (and,  in the case of
Section  6, after the Term to the extent  provided  in Section 6) to  injunctive
relief,  from a  court  of  competent  jurisdiction,  restraining  Officer  from
committing  or  continuing  any  violation  of  this  Agreement,   or  from  the
performance  of  services  to any other  business  entity in  violation  of this
Agreement, or both.

                  (i)      Captions.  Captions have been inserted solely for 
the convenience of reference and in no way define, limit or describe the scope
or substance of any provisions of this Agreement.

                  (j) Severability.  If this Agreement shall be any reason be or
become  unenforceable by any party, this Agreement shall thereupon terminate and
become  unenforceable by the other party as well. In all other respects,  if any
provision of this Agreement is held invalid or  unenforceable,  the remainder of
this Agreement  shall  nevertheless  remain in full force and effect and, if any
provision  if  held  invalid  or   unenforceable   with  respect  to  particular
circumstances,  it shall  nevertheless  remain in full  force and  effect in all
other circumstances.




                  IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the parties have executed this Agreement
as of the date first above written.
