A majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock
entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, constitutes a quorum for

the seven nominees for the Board receiving the greatest number of

Management may seek an adjournment if a quorum is not present, although
Management has not determined whether to do so.
Abstentions will be treated as shares present or represented and entitled
to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, but will not be
considered as votes cast in determining whether a matter has been approved by
the shareholders. Any shares a broker indicates on its proxy that it does not
have the authority to vote on any particular matter because it has not received
direction from the beneficial owner thereof will not be counted as voting on a
particular matter.

statute, such indemnity shall be provided.

its directors for acting in their capacities as such.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
Transactions With Management and Others.
- ----------------------------------------
Medical Dynamics has engaged in certain transactions with members of its
Board of Directors. In each case, the Board determined in good faith that the
transaction was in the Company's best interests and the terms of the transaction
were at least as fair to Medical Dynamics as could have been obtained from an
independent person, and the transaction was approved by the disinterested
directors. Registrant will continue to follow this procedure in approving any
transactions with affiliated persons. No such transactions are contemplated at
this time.
Promissory Note Extension with Messrs. Richmond and Kim: Medical Dynamics
owes two of its officers and directors, Daniel L. Richmond and Chae U. Kim,
amounts derived from Medical Dynamics original acquisition of Computer Age
Dentist. Approximately $127,000 was outstanding under these notes which were
payable in full on August 1, 1999. Richmond and Kim agreed to extend the due
date on their respective notes for one additional year or, if earlier, upon the
sale by Medical Dynamics or Computer Age Dentist of all or substantially all of
its or their assets. These promissory notes bear interest at 12% per annum, with
interest being payable when the principal is due.
Promissory Note with Dr. and Mrs. Adair: On July 30, 1999, Medical Dynamics
issued a promissory note in the amount of $400,000 to Dr. And Mrs. Edwin Adair,
two officers and directors of Medical Dynamics. Dr. and Mrs. Adair advanced the

exclusive revocable license agreement with its chairman, Dr. Edwin Adair,
effective June 3, 1987, as amended, relating to use of certain technology
invented and developed by Dr. Adair. Before an amendment negotiated in September
1997, Medical Dynamics was obligated to pay Dr. Adair a minimum annual royalty
of $120,000. Additionally, Dr. Adair was obligated to give Medical Dynamics a
right of first refusal for his inventions. Actual royalties never exceeded the
minimum annual royalty. As a result of negotiations between the disinterested
directors and Dr. Adair, the parties agreed to amend the license agreement to
waive the minimum annual royalty due September 30, 1997 for the year then ended
and any future minimum annual royalty, and to waive Dr. Adair's obligation to
provide Medical Dynamics with a right of first refusal on future technology.
Distribution Agreement. Medical Dynamics entered into a distribution
agreement with Micro- Medical Devices, Inc. ("MMD"), a corporation wholly-owned
by Dr. Adair, during June of fiscal year 1995. The distribution agreement
includes all products developed by Dr. Adair related to his Universal Sterile
Endoscopy System(TM) ("USES"). No revenues have been received as a result of the
distribution agreement with MMD nor are any revenues expected.
