PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed
information and financial data appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. Unless
otherwise indicated, all information in this Prospectus assumes that the
Underwriters' over-allotment option is not exercised.
THE COMPANY
Quality Systems, Inc. ("QSI" or the "Company") develops and markets health care
information systems that automate medical and dental group practices, physician
hospital organizations ("PHOs"), management service organizations ("MSOs"),
health maintenance organizations ("HMOs") and community health centers. In
response to the growing need for more comprehensive, cost-effective information
solutions for physician and dental practice management, the Company's systems
provide clients with the ability to redesign patient care and other workflow
processes, to improve productivity and reduce information processing and
administrative costs and to provide multi-site access to patient information.
The Company's proprietary software systems include general patient information
and summary medical records, appointment scheduling, billing, insurance claims
submission and processing, managed care implementation and referral management,
treatment outcome studies, treatment planning, drug formularies, word processing
and accounting. In addition to providing fully integrated information solutions
to its clients, the Company provides comprehensive hardware and software
installation, maintenance and support services, system training services and
electronic claims submission services. The Company is also introducing patient
medical records automation for medical and dental practices utilizing
proprietary software developed by Clinitec International Inc. ("Clinitec"), a
developer of electronic medical records software systems.
The Company currently has an installed base of more than 475 operating health
care information systems serving PHOs, MSOs, HMOs and other health care
organizations, each of which consists of one to 120 physicians or dentists.
According to Medical Data International, it is estimated that the physician
practice management information systems market is currently $1.8 billion. The
Company believes that as health care providers are increasingly required to
reduce costs while maintaining the quality of health care, the Company will be
able to capitalize on its strategy of providing fully integrated information
systems and superior customer service.
The Company was founded in 1974, with an early focus on providing information
systems and services primarily for dental group practices. The Company's initial
"turnkey" systems were designed to improve productivity while reducing
information processing costs and personnel requirements. In the mid-1980's, the
Company capitalized on the opportunity presented by the increasing pressure of
cost containment on physicians and health care organizations and further
expanded its information processing systems into the broader medical market.
Today, the Company develops and provides integrated UNIX-based health care
information systems for both the medical and dental markets. These systems
operate on a stand-alone basis or in a networked environment and are expandable
to accommodate client needs.
Augmenting its practice management software, the Company added electronic
medical records software to its product line in 1995 through a strategic
relationship with Clinitec. The Company presently holds a 25% interest in
Clinitec and expects to increase its holdings to 51% by March 31, 1996. The
Clinitec product, NextGen, permits scanning, annotation, retrieval and analysis
of medical records in all formats, from documents to photographs and X-rays.
NextGen has been developed using a client/server platform, a graphical user
interface for compatibility with UNIX, Microsoft Windows, Windows NT and Windows
95 operating systems, and a relational database for flexibility in screen
customization and logic flow. The Company is also in the process of developing
an alternative client/server version of its "back office" products utilizing a
graphical user interface with screens and templates similar to those in the
NextGen product to enable a more seamless integration of the QSI and NextGen
applications. With the addition of NextGen, the Company is able to provide its
clients with a comprehensive information management solution. NextGen, in
conjunction with the Company's practice management software, was first installed
at a beta site in August 1995 and is currently being installed in two additional
sites. General release of the combined systems is expected to occur in the
quarter ending June 30, 1996.

RISK FACTORS
Prospective investors should consider carefully the following factors, in
addition to the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this
Prospectus. Unless the context otherwise requires, as used in these risk
factors, the term Company shall also include Clinitec after it becomes a
majority-owned subsidiary of QSI.
DEPENDENCE ON PRINCIPAL PRODUCT AND NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
The Company currently derives substantially all of its net revenues from sales
of its health care information systems and related services. The Company
believes that a primary factor in the market acceptance of its systems has been
its ability to meet the needs of users of health care information systems. The
Company's future financial performance will depend in large part on the
Company's ability to continue to meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of
its clients through the timely development and successful introduction of new
and enhanced versions of its systems and other complementary products. The
Company has historically expended a significant amount of its net revenues on
product development and believes that significant continuing product development
efforts will be required to sustain the Company's growth.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its product
development efforts, that the market will continue to accept the Company's
existing or new products, or that products or product enhancements will be
developed in a timely manner, meet the requirements of health care providers or
achieve market acceptance. If new products or product enhancements do not
achieve market acceptance, the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition could be adversely affected. At certain times in the past,
the Company has also experienced delays in purchases of its products by clients
anticipating the launch of new products by the Company. There can be no
assurance that material order deferrals in anticipation of new product
introductions will not occur. See "Business -- Products," "-- Relationship with
Clinitec" and "-- Product Enhancement and Development."
COMPETITION
The market for health care information systems is intensely competitive and the
Company faces significant competition from a number of different sources. In
addition, several of the Company's competitors have significantly greater
financial, technical, product development and marketing resources than the
Company. The industry is highly fragmented and includes numerous competitors,
none of which the Company believes dominates the overall market for group
practice management systems.
Among the Company's principal competitors are health care information systems
companies such as IDX Corporation, Medic Computer Systems, Physician Computer
Networks, Inc., and Cycare Systems, Inc. Furthermore, the Company also competes
indirectly and to varying degrees with other major health group information
companies, information management companies generally, and other software
developers which may more directly enter the markets in which the Company
competes. There can be no assurance that future competition will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations. Competitive pressures and other factors, such as new
product introductions by the Company or its competitors, may result in price
erosion that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.
The Company believes that once a health care provider has chosen a particular
health care information system vendor, the provider will, for a period of time,
be more likely to rely on that vendor for its future information system
requirements. As the health care industry undergoes further consolidation, each
sale of the Company's systems assumes even greater importance to the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company's inability
to make initial sales of its systems to health care providers that are replacing
or substantially modifying their health care information systems could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations. See "Business -- Industry Background," "-- Sales and
Marketing" and "-- Competition."
6
<PAGE> 9
TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE
The software market generally is characterized by rapid technological change,
changing customer needs, frequent new product introductions and evolving
industry standards. The introduction of products incorporating new technologies
and the emergence of new industry standards could render the Company's existing
products obsolete and unmarketable. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be successful in developing and marketing new products that respond to
technological changes or evolving industry standards. If the Company is unable,
for technological or other reasons, to develop and introduce new products in a
timely manner in response to changing market conditions or customer
requirements, the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition could be materially adversely affected.
The Company is currently developing a new generation of its software products
that will be designed for the client/server environment. There can be no
assurance that the Company will successfully develop these new software products
or that these products will operate successfully on the principal client/server
operating systems, which include UNIX, Microsoft Windows, Windows NT and Windows
95, or that any such development, even if successful, will be completed
concurrently with or prior to introductions by competitors of products designed
for the client/server environment. Any such failure or delay could adversely
affect the Company's competitive position or could make the Company's current
product line designed for the UNIX environment obsolete.
FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS
The Company's revenues and operating results have in the past fluctuated, and
may in the future fluctuate, from quarter to quarter and period to period as a
result of a number of factors including, without limitation, the size and timing
of orders from clients; the length of sales cycles and installation processes;
the ability of the Company's clients to obtain financing for the purchase of the
Company's products; changes in pricing policies or price reductions by the
Company or its competitors; the timing of new product announcements and product
introductions by the Company or its competitors; the availability and cost of
supplies; the financial stability of major clients; market acceptance of new
products, applications and product enhancements; the Company's ability to
develop, introduce and market new products, applications and product
enhancements and to control costs; the Company's success in expanding its sales
and marketing programs; deferrals of client orders in anticipation of new
products, applications or product enhancements; changes in Company strategy;
personnel changes; and general economic factors.
The Company's products are generally shipped as orders are received and
accordingly, the Company has historically operated with little backlog. As a
result, sales in any quarter are dependent on orders booked and shipped in that
quarter and are not predictable with any degree of certainty. In addition, the
Company's initial contact with a potential customer depends in significant part
on the customer's decision to replace, or substantially modify, its existing
information system. How and when to implement, replace or substantially modify
an information system are major decisions for health care providers.
Accordingly, the sales cycle for the Company's systems can vary significantly
and typically ranges from three to 12 months from initial contact to contract
execution and the installation cycle is typically two to three months from
contract execution to completion of installation. Because a significant
percentage of the Company's expenses are relatively fixed, a variation in the
timing of systems sales and installations can cause significant variations in
operating results from quarter to quarter. As a result, the Company believes
that interim period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not
necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future
performance.
Further, the Company's historical operating results are not necessarily
indicative of future performance for any particular period and there can be no
assurance that the Company's recent revenue growth or its profitability will
continue on a quarterly or annual basis. Due to all of the foregoing factors, it
is possible that in some future quarter the Company's operating results may be
below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In such event,
the price of the Company's Common Stock would likely be materially adversely
affected. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations."

<PAGE> 10
PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY
The Company is heavily dependent on the maintenance and protection of its
intellectual property and relies largely on license agreements, confidentiality
procedures and employee nondisclosure agreements to protect its intellectual
property. The Company's software is not patented and existing copyright laws
offer only limited practical protection. There can be no assurance that the
legal protections and precautions taken by the Company will be adequate to
prevent misappropriation of the Company's technology or that competitors will
not independently develop technologies equivalent or superior to the Company's.
Further, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect the Company's
proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States.
The Company does not believe that its operations or products infringe on the
intellectual property rights of others. However, there can be no assurance that
others will not assert infringement or trade secret claims against the Company
with respect to its current or future products or that any such assertion will
not require the Company to enter into a license agreement or royalty
arrangements with the party asserting the claim. As competing health care
information systems increase in complexity and overall capabilities and the
functionality of these systems further overlaps, providers of such systems may
become increasingly subject to infringement claims. Responding to and defending
any such claims may distract the attention of Company management and have an
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. In addition, claims may be brought against third parties from which
the Company purchases software, and such claims could adversely affect the
Company's ability to access third party software for its systems.
CLINITEC RELATIONSHIP
A principal component of the Company's business strategy is the acquisition of
shares resulting in a majority interest in Clinitec. The Company's future
financial results will depend in part on the Company's ability to successfully
integrate Clinitec's business with the Company's, including Clinitec's ability
to hire and retain high quality personnel for its operations. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to successfully coordinate its business
activities with those of Clinitec. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be successful in integrating Clinitec products with those of
the Company or that the acquisition of a majority interest in Clinitec will not
have an adverse effect upon the Company's operating results. In addition,
Clinitec has sold only a limited quantity of products to date and there can be
no assurance that its product will receive market acceptance. See "Use of
Proceeds" and "Business -- Relationship with Clinitec."
ABILITY TO MANAGE GROWTH
The Company has recently experienced a period of growth and increased personnel
which has placed, and will continue to place, a significant strain on the
Company's resources. The Company anticipates expanding its overall software
development, marketing, sales, client management and training capacity. In the
event the Company is unable to identify, hire, train and retain qualified
individuals in such capacities within a reasonable time frame, such failure
could have a material adverse effect on the Company. In addition, the Company's
ability to manage future increases, if any, in the scope of its operations or
personnel will depend on significant expansion of its research and development,
marketing and sales, management and financial and administrative capabilities.
The failure of the Company's management to effectively manage expansion in its
business could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results
of operations and financial condition. See "Business -- Relationship with
Clinitec."
PRODUCT LIABILITY
Certain of the Company's products provide applications that relate to patient
medical information. Any failure by the Company's products to provide accurate
and timely information could result in claims against the Company. The Company
maintains insurance to protect against claims associated with the use of its
products, but there can be no assurance that its insurance coverage would
adequately cover any claim asserted against the Company. A successful claim
brought against the Company in excess of its insurance coverage could have
8
<PAGE> 11
a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations. Even unsuccessful claims could result in the Company's
expenditure of funds in litigation and management time and resources. There can
be no assurance that the Company will not be subject to product liability
claims, that such claims will not result in liability in excess of its insurance
coverages, that the Company's insurance will cover such claims or that
appropriate insurance will continue to be available to the Company in the future
at commercially reasonable rates. Such claims could have a material adverse
affect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
UNCERTAINTY IN HEALTH CARE INDUSTRY; GOVERNMENT REGULATION
The health care industry is subject to changing political, economic and
regulatory influences that may affect the procurement practices and operation of
health care facilities. During the past several years, the health care industry
has been subject to an increase in governmental regulation of, among other
things, reimbursement rates and certain capital expenditures. Certain
legislators have announced that they intend to examine proposals to reform
certain aspects of the U.S. health care system including proposals which may
increase governmental involvement in health care, lower reimbursement rates and
otherwise change the operating environment for the Company's clients. Health
care providers may react to these proposals and the uncertainty surrounding such
proposals by curtailing or deferring investments, including those for the
Company's systems and related services. Cost containment measures instituted by
health care providers as a result of regulatory reform or otherwise could result
in greater selectivity in the allocation of capital funds. Such selectivity
could have an adverse effect on the Company's ability to sell its systems and
related services. The Company cannot predict what impact, if any, such proposals
or health care reforms might have on its business, financial condition and
results of operations.
The Company's software may be subject to regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (the "FDA") as a medical device. Such regulation could require
the registration of the applicable manufacturing facility and software/hardware
products, application of detailed recordkeeping and manufacturing standards, and
FDA approval or clearance prior to marketing. An approval or clearance could
create delays in marketing, and the FDA could require supplemental filings or
object to certain of these applications. See "Business -- Governmental
Regulation."
DEPENDENCE UPON KEY PERSONNEL
The Company's future performance also depends in significant part upon the
continued service of its key technical and senior management personnel, many of
whom have been with the Company for a significant period of time. Because the
Company has a relatively small number of employees when compared to other
leading companies in the same industry, its dependence on maintaining its
employees is particularly significant. The Company is also dependent on its
ability to attract and retain high quality personnel, particularly highly
skilled software engineers for applications development. The industry is
characterized by a high level of employee mobility and aggressive recruiting of
skilled personnel. There can be no assurance that the Company's current
employees will continue to work for the Company. Loss of services of key
employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
results of operations and financial condition. The Company does not maintain key
man life insurance on any of its employees. The Company may need to grant
additional options to key employees and provide other forms of incentive
compensation to attract and retain such key personnel. See "Business -- Product
Enhancement and Development" and "-- Employees."
STOCK OWNERSHIP OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
The Company's executive officers and directors will beneficially own
approximately 32.9% of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock
immediately following this offering, or 29.0% in the event the over-allotment
option is exercised. Accordingly, these shareholders will be able to
significantly influence the outcome of the election of the Company's directors
and of corporate actions requiring shareholder approval,
9
<PAGE> 12
such as mergers and acquisitions. Such a high level of ownership by such persons
may have a significant effect in delaying, deferring or preventing a change in
control of the Company and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of
other holders of Common Stock.
VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE; NO DIVIDENDS
The trading price of the Common Stock has been and is likely to continue to be
subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly
operating results, the gain or loss of significant contracts, changes in
management, announcements of technological innovations or new products by the
Company or its competitors, legislative or regulatory changes, general trends in
the industry and other events or factors. In addition, the stock market has
experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations which have particularly
affected the market price for many technology companies for reasons frequently
unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market
fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Company's Common
Stock. The Company currently intends to retain any future earnings for use in
its business and does not anticipate any cash dividends in the future. See
"Price Range for Common Stock and Dividends."
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock in the public market after this
offering could adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock. Upon the
completion of this offering, the Company will have 5,653,491 shares of Common
Stock outstanding. Of this amount, the 1,500,000 shares sold in this offering
(plus any additional shares sold upon the Underwriters' exercise of their
over-allotment option) and approximately 2,289,357 other shares (subject in
certain cases to the volume and other limitations of Rule 144 as promulgated
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Rule 144")) will be available for
immediate sale in the public market as of the date of this Prospectus. An
additional 1,864,134 shares will be available for sale in the public market
(subject to the volume and other restrictions of Rule 144) following the
expiration of the 90-day lock-up agreement with the Representatives of the
Underwriters. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders," "Shares Eligible for
Future Sale" and "Underwriting."
BROAD MANAGEMENT DISCRETION IN USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company has not yet identified specific uses for all of the net proceeds of
this offering. Accordingly, the Company's management will retain broad
discretion as to the allocation of the net proceeds of this offering. The
Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of Common
Stock offered by the Selling Shareholders. See "Use of Proceeds."

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
Since fiscal 1993, approximately one-half of the Company's revenues have been
derived from sales of computer systems, upgrades and supplies, with the balance
derived from systems maintenance agreements and other support services. On sales
of its systems, upgrades and supplies, the Company recognizes revenues upon
shipment of products. Revenues attributable to the Company's software products
included with the systems are also recognized upon shipment, unless the
Company's installation obligations after shipment are significant, in which case
revenues are recognized on a percentage of completion basis. Revenues from
systems maintenance are typically recognized ratably over the life of the
contract. In the last five years, more than 90% of the Company's clients have
elected to purchase the Company's maintenance and support services.
During the past five years, the Company's systems sales have been impacted by a
number of factors which have had the effect of reducing systems sales and
systems upgrade sales while at the same time increasing the relative
profitability of these sales. Historically, the costs for the hardware
components used in the Company's systems have consistently declined while the
performance and capacity of such components have continually increased.
Consistent with the marketplace, the Company has adjusted its systems pricing to
its clients to reflect these decreased hardware costs. In addition, the Company
increasingly encounters prospective clients that already own, or desire to
acquire from third parties, significant quantities of hardware which may be
utilized with the Company's software. In such instances, the sales generated
from such clients are lower than they otherwise would be.
As a result of these market changes, the Company has increasingly focused its
efforts on the sale of its software user licenses and services, resulting in
higher margins. Aiding these efforts has been the continuing increase in the
capacity of the hardware components which the Company markets. The Company has
had a growing market for the sale of additional software user licenses to its
existing clients as such clients can often add more software user capacity to
their system with minimal or no change to their current central processing unit.
Such clients frequently also purchase hardware peripherals from the Company for
use with the newly purchased software user licenses.
The first six months of fiscal 1996 have seen a marked increase in the Company's
system revenues. The Company attributes this increase to the dynamic changes
currently occurring in the health care industry and to growing acceptance of the
Company's products and services. Health care providers, faced with economic
pressures to reduce costs and increase productivity, are increasingly aligning
with HMOs, hospitals and other health care organizations as well as
consolidating with other health care providers into larger, more efficient
business entities. This trend results in an increase in the number of large and
complex health care organizations that are potential clients for the Company's
sophisticated systems. In addition, the continued growth of these organizations
after they become clients of the Company presents the potential for the Company
to increase sales of upgrades and additional software user licenses. The
Company's ability to address the complex software requirements of such newly
forming or growing business entities, in particular in the area of managed care,
is a key to success in this changing health care delivery environment.
The sales cycle for the Company's systems typically ranges from three to 12
months from initial contact to contract execution. The installation cycle is
typically two to three months from contract execution to completion of
installation. Because a significant percentage of the Company's expenses are
relatively fixed, a variation in the timing of systems sales and installations
can cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter.
The Company's products are generally shipped as orders are received and
accordingly, the Company has historically operated with little backlog. As a
result, sales in any quarter are dependent on orders booked and shipped in that
quarter and are not predictable with any degree of certainty. As a result, the
Company believes that interim period-to-period comparisons of its results of
operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as
indications of future performance.
14
<PAGE> 17
The Company's research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel
and equipment costs required to conduct the Company's product development
effort. The Company believes that significant investments in research and
development are required to remain competitive. As a consequence, in recent
years, the Company has increased the amount of its expenditures on research and
development, mainly through the employment of additional development personnel.
Development costs incurred in the research and development of new software
products and enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred
until technological feasibility has been established. After technological
feasibility is established, any additional development costs are capitalized and
amortized over periods ranging from three to five years.
In connection with the acquisition of a 51% interest in Clinitec, the Company
expects to take a writeoff for purchased in-process research and development of
$3.8 million in the quarter ending March 31, 1996. The exact amount of this
writeoff is subject to change pending the timing of this transaction and
ultimate purchase allocations to be made by the Company.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in
its entirety by, the Financial Statements and related notes thereto included
elsewhere in this Prospectus. Historical results of operations, percentage
margin fluctuations and any trends that may be inferred from the discussion
below are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future
period.

</TABLE>
FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994
NET REVENUES. Net revenues for the six months ended September 30, 1995
increased 36.1% to $8.0 million from $5.9 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1994. This increase was due primarily to sales of computer
systems, upgrades, including software user licenses, and supplies, which grew
70.4% to $4.6 million from $2.7 million. This growth resulted from an increase
in the number of larger systems and from increased sales of upgrades. Net
revenues from maintenance and other services grew 6.5% to $3.3 million from $3.1
million.
15
<PAGE> 18
COSTS OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. Cost of products and services for the six
months ended September 30, 1995 increased 21.8% to $3.8 million from $3.1
million for the six months ended September 30, 1994. This increase was due
primarily to the increase in systems sold and in net revenues. As a percentage
of net revenues, cost of products and services decreased to 47.4% from 53.0%.
This decrease was due to an increase in the proportion of revenue from lower
cost items.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 1995 increased
14.8% to $1.9 million from $1.7 million for the six months ended September 30,
1994. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in sales and
administrative personnel. These increases were more than offset by increased
sales during the same period, resulting in a decrease in selling, general and
administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, to 24.1% from 28.6%.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. Research and development expenses for the
six months ended September 30, 1995 decreased 8.4% to $656,000 from $716,000 for
the six months ended September 30, 1994. The decrease in research and
development expenses resulted from a higher proportion of capitalized software.
Total research and development expenditures and capitalized software increased
to $869,000 from $793,000. The Company anticipates increased expenditures in
capitalized software in connection with developing an alternate version of
certain of its products for the client/server environment to take advantage of
new more powerful technologies and to allow for a more seamless integration of
the Company's and Clinitec's NextGen applications.
INTEREST AND INVESTMENT INCOME. Interest and investment income for the six
months ended September 30, 1995 increased 69.4% to $205,000 from $121,000 for
the six months ended September 30, 1994. Current period investment results
represent an annualized yield of approximately 6.0% on the Company's combined
balances for cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Interest and
investment income for the six months ended September 30, 1994 included prior
year first quarter realized losses of $81,000 from sales of short-term
investments and first quarter unrealized losses of $10,000 from trading
securities.
INCOME TAX PROVISION. Income tax provision for the six months ended September
30, 1995 increased 656.1% to $741,000 from $98,000 for the six month ended
September 30, 1994. This increase was due to increased earnings before income
tax provision and an increase in effective tax rates. The effective tax rates
for the respective periods were 41.0% and 20.2%. The rate for the prior period
was lower due to utilization of a deferred tax valuation allowance related to
net operating loss carryforwards.
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1994.
NET REVENUES. Net revenues were relatively unchanged for the year ended March
31, 1995 increasing 2.5% to $12.0 million from $11.8 million for the year ended
March 31, 1994. Revenues derived from maintenance and other services increased
13.6% to $6.4 million from $5.6 million as a result of the Company's larger
installed base of systems and higher prices for services. Revenues attributable
to sales of computer systems, upgrades and supplies decreased 7.6% to $5.7
million from $6.1 million due to decreased systems sales during fiscal 1995.
COST OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. Cost of products and services for the year ended
March 31, 1995 decreased 7.2% to $6.1 million from $6.5 million for the year
ended March 31, 1994. This decrease was due to an increase in the proportion of
revenues from lower cost items comprising net revenues and also resulted in
these costs, as a percentage of net revenues, decreasing to 50.3% from 55.5%.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 1995 increased 15.9% to
$3.5 million from $3.1 million for the year ended March 31, 1994 as a result of
increases in selling efforts and sales personnel, thereby increasing these
expenses, as a percentage of net revenues, to 29.3% from 26.0%.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. The amount of expenditures charged to
research and development expense for the year ended March 31, 1995 increased
11.3% to $1.5 million from $1.3 million for the year ended March 31, 1994. Total
research and development expenditures, including the amount charged to
capitalized software, increased 10.4% to $1.7 million from $1.5 million, and as
a percentage of net revenues, to
16
<PAGE> 19
13.8% from 12.8%. This increase was primarily attributable to development of
enhancements and additions to the Company's systems.
INTEREST AND INVESTMENT INCOME. Interest and investment income for the year
ended March 31, 1995 increased 7.3% to $429,000 from $400,000 for the year ended
March 31, 1994. This increase was due to an increase in funds available for
investment.
INCOME TAX PROVISION. Income tax provision for the year ended March 31, 1995
increased 29.8% to $453,000 from $349,000 for the year ended March 31, 1994.
This was due to increased earnings before income tax provision and an increase
in effective tax rates. The effective tax rates for the respective periods were
32.0% and 27.8%. These lower than normal rates were due to utilization of a
deferred tax valuation allowance related to net operating loss carryforwards.
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 1994 AND 1993.
NET REVENUES. Net revenues were relatively unchanged for the year ended March
31, 1994, increasing 0.9% to $11.8 million from $11.7 million for the year ended
March 31, 1993. Revenues derived from maintenance and other services increased
4.3% to $5.6 million from $5.4 million. Revenues from sales of computer systems,
upgrades and supplies decreased 2.0% to $6.1 million from $6.3 million.
COST OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. Cost of products and services for the year ended
March 31, 1994 decreased 6.7% to $6.5 million from $7.0 million for the year
ended March 31, 1993. This decrease was due to an increase in the proportion of
revenues from lower cost items comprising net revenue and to successful results
from the Company's cost containment program, resulting in reducing costs, as a
percentage of revenues, to 55.5% from 60.0%.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were relatively unchanged in the year ended March 31,
1994, increasing 1.5% to $3.1 million from $3.0 million for the year ended March
31, 1993, and as a percentage of net revenues to 26.0% from 25.8%.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. The amount of expenditures charged to
research and development expense for the year ended March 31, 1994 increased
16.2% to $1.3 million from $1.1 million for the year ended March 31, 1993. Total
research and development expenditures, including the amount charged to
capitalized software, increased 17.1% to $1.5 million from $1.3 million, and as
a percentage of net revenues to 12.8% from 11.0%.
INTEREST AND INVESTMENT INCOME. Interest and investment income for the year
ended March 31, 1994 increased 108.3% to $400,000 from $192,000 for the year
ended March 31, 1993. This increase was due to an increase in funds available
for investment and a change in the investment mix in order to increase yields.
INCOME TAX PROVISION. Income tax provision for the year ended March 31, 1994,
increased 305.8% to $349,000 from $86,000 for the year ended March 31, 1993. The
income tax expense for the year ended March 31, 1994, resulted from an initial
tax expense of $331,000 which was offset by a $245,000 tax benefit from
utilization of tax loss carryforwards. The effective tax rates were 27.8% and
12.1%, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily through cash
generated from operations. Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.8
million, $1.2 million and $1.2 million for the years ended March 31, 1993, 1994
and 1995 and $563,000 and $128,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1994
and 1995, respectively. Net cash provided from operating activities consists
principally of net earnings plus increases in income taxes payable offset by
increases in accounts receivables. The amounts for the period ended September
30, 1995 were reduced principally by an increase in accounts receivable of $1.7
million.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $1.3 million, $(4.0)
million, and $3.6 million for the years ended March 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 and
$1.1 million and $(1.3) million for six months ended September 30, 1994 and
1995, respectively. Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities consists
principally of changes in short-term investments as well as additions to
equipment and improvements and
17
<PAGE> 20
capitalized software. The amounts for the period ended September 30, 1995 were
reduced by the Company's purchase of a 25% equity interest in Clinitec for $1.0
million.
At September 30, 1995, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5.0 million
and short-term investments of $1.3 million. Short-term investments include debt
securities issued by foreign governments of $314,000 and an investment in a
hedge fund which trades in special situation securities of $517,000. The Company
does not believe these investments have significant principal risk; however,
there can be no assurance that the markets for these securities will not change,
causing a loss of principal.
Except for the Company's intention to exercise its option to obtain a majority
interest of Clinitec, and to expend funds on capitalized software in connection
with alternative versions of certain of its products for the client/server
environment to take advantage of more powerful technologies and to enable a more
seamless integration of the Company's and Clinitec's NextGen applications, the
Company has no significant capital commitments and currently anticipates that
additions to property and equipment for the remainder of fiscal 1996 and fiscal
1997 will be comparable to recent past years. See "Use of Proceeds" and
"Business -- Relationship with Clinitec."
The Company believes that the net proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock
offered hereby, together with its current cash balances and cash flow from
operations, if any, will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital
expenditure requirements through fiscal 1997.
QUARTERLY RESULTS
The following tables set forth certain unaudited statement of operations data
for the six quarters ended September 30, 1995. These data have been derived from
unaudited financial statements that, in the opinion of management, include all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a
fair presentation of such information when read in conjunction with the
Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto.
The Company believes that results of operations for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.

The Company's revenues and operating results have fluctuated from quarter to
quarter as a result of a number of factors including, without limitation, the
size and timing of orders from major clients; the length of sales cycles and
installation processes; the ability of the Company's clients to obtain financing
for the purchase of the Company's products; changes in pricing policies or price
reductions by the Company or its competitors; the timing of new product
announcements and product introductions by the Company or its competitors; the
availability and cost of supplies; the financial stability of major clients;
market acceptance of new products, applications and product enhancements; the
Company's ability to develop, introduce and market new products, applications
and product enhancements and to control costs; the Company's success in
expanding its sales and marketing programs; deferrals of client orders in
anticipation of new products, applications or product enhancements; changes in
Company strategy; personnel changes; and general economic factors. Because a
significant percentage of the Company's expenses are relatively fixed, a
variation in the timing of systems sales and installations can cause significant
variations in operating results from quarter to quarter. As a result, the
Company believes that interim period-to-period comparisons of its results of
operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as
indications of future performance. Further, the Company's historical operating
results are not necessarily indicative of future performance for any particular
period and there can be no assurance that the Company's recent revenue growth or
its profitability will continue on a quarterly or annual basis. Due to all of
the foregoing factors, it is possible that in some future quarter the Company's
operating results may be below the expectations of public market analysts and
investors. In such event, the price of the Company's Common Stock would likely
be materially adversely affected.

BUSINESS
Quality Systems, Inc. ("QSI" or the "Company") develops and markets health care
information systems that automate medical and dental group practices, physician
hospital organizations ("PHOs"), management service organizations ("MSOs"),
health maintenance organizations ("HMOs") and community health centers. In
response to the growing need for more comprehensive, cost-effective information
solutions for physician and dental practice management, the Company's systems
provide clients with the ability to redesign patient care and other workflow
processes, to improve productivity and reduce information processing and
administrative costs and to provide multi-site access to patient information.
The Company's proprietary software systems include general patient information
and summary medical records, appointment scheduling, billing, insurance claims
submission and processing, managed care implementation and referral management,
treatment outcome studies, treatment planning, drug formularies, word processing
and accounting. In addition to providing fully integrated information solutions
to its clients, the Company provides comprehensive hardware and software
installation, maintenance and support services, system training services and
electronic claims submission services. The Company is also introducing patient
medical records automation for medical and dental practices utilizing
proprietary software developed by Clinitec International Inc. ("Clinitec"), a
developer of electronic medical records software systems.
The Company currently has an installed base of more than 475 operating health
care information systems serving PHOs, MSOs, HMOs and other health care
organizations, each of which consists of one to 120 physicians or dentists.
According to Medical Data International, it is estimated that the physician
practice management information systems market is currently $1.8 billion. The
Company believes that as health care providers are increasingly required to
reduce costs while maintaining the quality of health care, the Company will be
able to capitalize on its strategy of providing fully integrated information
systems and superior customer service.
The Company was founded in 1974, with an early focus on providing information
systems and services primarily for dental group practices. The Company's initial
"turnkey" systems were designed to improve productivity while reducing
information processing costs and personnel requirements. In the mid-1980's, the
Company capitalized on the opportunity presented by the increasing pressure of
cost containment on physicians and health care organizations and further
expanded its information processing systems into the broader medical market.
Today, the Company develops and provides integrated UNIX-based health care
information systems for both the medical and dental markets. These systems
operate on a stand-alone basis or in a networked environment and are expandable
to accommodate client needs.
Augmenting its practice management software, the Company added electronic
medical records software to its product line in 1995 through a strategic
relationship with Clinitec. The Company presently holds a 25% interest in
Clinitec and expects to increase its holdings to 51% by March 31, 1996. The
Clinitec product, NextGen, permits scanning, annotation, retrieval and analysis
of medical records in all formats, from documents to photographs and X-rays.
NextGen has been developed using a client/server platform, a graphical user
interface for compatibility with UNIX, Microsoft Windows, Windows NT and Windows
95 operating systems, and a relational database for flexibility in screen
customization and logic flow. The Company is also in the process of developing
an alternative client/server version of its "back office" products utilizing a
graphical user interface with screens and templates similar to those in the
NextGen product to enable a more seamless integration of the QSI and NextGen
applications. With the addition of NextGen, the Company is able to provide its
clients with a comprehensive information management solution. NextGen, in
conjunction with the Company's practice management software, was first installed
at a beta site in August 1995 and is currently being installed in two additional
sites. General release of the combined systems is expected to occur in the
quarter ending June 30, 1996.
INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
Health care costs in the United States have risen dramatically over the past two
decades relative to the overall rate of inflation. Consequently, broad pressures
to reduce costs without sacrificing the quality of care have caused significant
changes in the health care industry. While reimbursement for health care has
historically
20
<PAGE> 23
been based on a fee-for-service model of payment, managed care organizations and
other payors are increasingly utilizing alternative reimbursement models,
including fixed fee and capitation, that shift the financial risk of delivering
health care from payors to both physicians and institutional providers.
Pressures to control costs have also contributed to the movement of care from
more expensive inpatient settings, such as hospitals, to outpatient settings,
such as clinics and physician offices. Today, outpatient care providers,
particularly physician groups, deliver an increasing amount of health care
services, bear an increasing share of the financial risk and control a
substantial portion of total health care resources.
To compete in the changing health care environment, physicians and other
outpatient care providers are increasingly joining and affiliating with other
physicians, managed care organizations, hospitals and other enterprises to form
larger health care organizations such as PHOs, MSOs and HMOs. These
organizations are designed to take advantage of economies of scale associated
with managing health care services for large patient populations across
inpatient and outpatient settings, while achieving improved quality, reduced
costs and strengthened negotiating positions with managed care entities. In the
managed care environment, health care organizations are increasingly entering
into contracts which define the terms under which care is administered. The
expansion in the number of managed care and third-party payor organizations, as
well as additional government regulation and changes in reimbursement models,
has greatly increased the complexity of pricing practices, billing procedures
and reimbursement policies impacting medical practices. In addition, to operate
effectively, health care organizations must efficiently manage patient care and
other workflow processes which may extend across multiple care locations and
business entities.
To compete under the constraints of managed care while maintaining quality of
services, health care organizations have placed increasing demands on their
information systems. Initially, these information systems automated financial
and administrative functions. As it became necessary to manage patient flow
processes, the need arose to integrate all levels of "back-office" data with
clinical information such as patient test results and office visits.
Particularly for larger organizations and group practices, the Company believes
information systems must allow enterprise-wide exchange of patient information
incorporating administrative, financial and clinical information from multiple
entities, while focusing on the physician as the primary care giver. In
addition, large health care organizations increasingly require information
systems that can deliver high-performance in environments with multiple
concurrent computer users.
Many existing health care information systems, including systems designed for
physicians and small group practices, were designed for limited administrative
tasks such as billing and scheduling and can neither accommodate multiple
computing environments nor operate effectively across multiple locations and
entities. As the health care industry continues to evolve, physician groups and
health care organizations will increasingly require systems that compile
structured clinical information from multiple sources and enable measurement of
treatment outcomes and management of clinical processes. Such systems must be
integrated with financial and administrative information systems in order to
maintain patient flow while continuing to reduce costs and improve quality of
care. The Company believes that systems which integrate patient clinical data
with administrative, financial and other practice management data are best
positioned to succeed in the current managed care environment.
As health care organizations transition to new platforms and newer technologies,
they will be migrating toward the implementation of enterprise-wide,
patient-centered computing systems embedded with automated patient medical
records. These organizations cannot afford significant downtime or re-education,
nor can they risk choosing a system which has not proven its ability to handle
high volume processing with continuous dependability. The Company believes that
successful systems vendors in this market will have a sufficient installed base
and adequate resources to offer high quality, fully integrated products and the
value-added services needed to expand and support clients throughout this
evolution process.
THE QSI SOLUTION
In response to the growing need for more comprehensive, cost-effective health
care information solutions for physician and dental practice management, the
Company's systems provide clients with the ability to redesign patient care and
other workflow processes and improve productivity through multi-site and
multi-entry access
21
<PAGE> 24
to patient information. Utilizing proven third-party hardware solutions combined
with the Company's proprietary software configured to maximize the efficiency of
a health care organization's information processing requirements, the Company's
solutions enable a seamless integration of a variety of administrative and
patient information operations. In addition, as a result of its strategic
relationship with Clinitec, the Company provides clients with an integrated
medical records management system as part of a total information management
solution. Leveraging over 20 years of experience in the health care information
services industry, the Company believes that it continues to distinguish its
solutions by providing its clients with sophisticated, full-featured software
systems along with comprehensive systems implementation, maintenance and
support.
QSI's systems automate many aspects of group practice management, including the
retention of general patient information, appointment scheduling, billing,
insurance claims submission and processing, managed care implementation and
referral management, treatment outcome studies, treatment planning, drug
formularies, word processing and accounting. The Company primarily uses the IBM
RS6000 central processing unit and IBM'S AIX version of the UNIX operating
system as a platform for its application software, which enables the Company to
continue providing a wide range of flexible and functional systems to
accommodate clients from solo practitioners to large group practices.
STRATEGY
The Company provides its clients with health care information systems designed
to improve the quality and reduce the cost of health care delivery. The
Company's strategy is to build on its experience as a provider of information
systems solutions for health care organizations.
Key elements of the Company's strategy include:
Providing Increased Automation and Integration of Practice Management
Systems. The Company's strategy is to provide user-friendly, comprehensive
medical and dental practice management information systems that meet the
information processing requirements of physician specialties and practices
and are designed to manage the financial, administrative and practice
management requirements of these practices. These products enable a single
user to perform a larger number of tasks and operate more efficiently by
providing real-time access to comprehensive patient information.
Expanding Professional and Technical Service Offerings. The Company will
continue to expand its professional and technical services, including
information systems planning, process redesign, new product offerings,
project management, contract programming, client management, training
services and network design, to assist health care organizations. In
addition, the Company intends to expand its electronic data interchange
capabilities by increasing the number of insurance carriers and services
offered.
Leveraging Clinitec Relationship for Sale of NextGen Products. Leveraging
on its recent alliance with Clinitec, the Company's strategy includes
integration of a medical records management system into its product line.
The Company believes that the "front office" electronic medical records
solutions offered by Clinitec's NextGen software are a natural adjunct to
the "back office" applications of QSI's existing software solutions.
Targeting Large Health Care Provider Groups. The number of physicians and
dentists practicing in group settings or as a part of managed care
organizations has increased significantly in recent years. The Company
believes the number and size of such groups will continue to grow as
economic pressures drive health care providers to affiliate with or form
new larger group practices. The Company believes that the proven ability of
its integrated information solutions to meet the needs of physician and
dental groups, particularly those with eight or more affiliated physicians
and six or more affiliated dentists, will allow the Company to capitalize
on the continued growth of the group practice market. In addition, the
Company intends to aggressively pursue certain target markets including
large, federally funded community health centers and other opportunities
that arise due to the increase in managed care.
22
<PAGE> 25
Offering Comprehensive Services and Support. The Company believes its
success is attributable in part to its exceptional customer service and
support. The Company provides support to its clients seven days a week, 24
hours a day. In addition, the Company's policy is to respond to user
defined system-down emergencies with a response time of 15 minutes or less.
Further, the Company's employees have the ability to service clients by
remote access, allowing for quick response to client inquiries and quick
resolutions to system issues. The Company believes that its commitment to
provide extensive support has contributed significantly to the development
of its business.
PRODUCTS
The Company's health care information systems consist primarily of proprietary
software applications and third-party hardware and software. The systems range
in capacity from one to hundreds of users, allowing the Company to address the
needs of both small and large clients. The software configuration of a typical
system includes a basic medical or dental application and additional software
applications. A typical system also consists of third party hardware components,
including a UNIX-based central processing unit, disk drives, a magnetic tape
unit, video display terminals, PCs, one or more printers, and telecommunications
equipment. The systems are modular in design and may be expanded to grow with
changing client requirements.
The Company purchases all the hardware components of its systems as well as the
requisite operating system licenses from manufacturers or distributors of those
components. It assembles and tests the hardware components and incorporates
QSI's proprietary application software and other third party software into
completed systems. The Company provides systems tailored to accommodate
particular client requirements. The Company continually evaluates the hardware
components of its systems with a view to utilizing hardware that is functional,
reliable and cost-effective.

to provide increased functionality and flexibility to its clients. Recent
enhancements include additional interfaces for electronic claims submission and
insurance payments, increased ability to control managed care plans and fees,
electronic patient eligibility, extensions for community health centers, drug
formulary tracking, enhanced patient scheduling, and software to support
paperless collections. The Company has continued to take advantage of new
releases in the IBM RS6000 family, as well as new PC-based products utilizing
the SCO UNIX operating system. This introduction of a PC-based UNIX system for
physician and dental group practices allowed the Company increased pricing
flexibility and enabled the Company's systems to be used in smaller practice
settings. In addition, the Company has added enhanced telecommunications,
full-featured color terminals and more versatile printer options.

RELATIONSHIP WITH CLINITEC
On April 21, 1995, the Company entered into a strategic relationship with
Clinitec, a developer of electronic medical records software systems. As part of
this relationship, the Company acquired a 25% equity interest in Clinitec for $1
million. In addition to its 25% ownership position in Clinitec, the Company
holds an option, exercisable until August 1997, to purchase additional shares in
Clinitec for $3 million which will result in the Company holding a majority
interest in Clinitec. The Company will provide notice to Clinitec of its
exercise of this option concurrent with the closing of this offering. Clinitec's
software product, NextGen, has been developed using a graphical user interface
client/server platform for compatibility with the UNIX, Microsoft Windows,
Windows NT and Windows 95 operating systems and a relational database back end
to permit flexibility in screen customization and logic flow. As part of its
agreement with Clinitec, the Company received the non-exclusive right to market
NextGen for medical applications, and the world-wide exclusive right to market
NextGen for dental markets.
NextGen operates in a client/server environment, using a desktop, laptop or
pen-based PC configuration. Medical records data can include:
- User customized templates for data capture and automatic document
generation
- Scanned or electronically acquired images including X-rays and
photographs
- Other records, documents and notes, including electronically captured
handwriting and annotations
- Digital voice recordings embedded in documents
In addition, specific templates designed into the system will permit research
and analysis of particular conditions and diagnoses, including the interaction
between various prescribed pharmaceuticals, and will allow for extensive
outcomes reporting.
NextGen offers software applications that are complementary to those offered by
QSI. The key "back office" applications incorporated into QSI's solutions such
as practice management, eligibility, claims processing and accounting can be
augmented by the "front office" applications of the NextGen software. Because
the Company's products are UNIX-based, the Company is able to add NextGen as
part of an integrated system. To address the client/server marketplace, the
Company is in the process of developing an alternative version of its products
for the client/server environment. In addition to a graphical user interface,
these client/server versions will include screens and templates similar to those
in NextGen to enable a more seamless integration of the QSI and NextGen
applications. The Company intends to leverage its existing client base for sales
of NextGen.
SALES AND MARKETING
The Company sells and markets its products nationwide through a direct sales
force operating from sales offices in California, Florida, Georgia,
Massachusetts, New York and Texas. The Company's sales and marketing employees
identify and contact prospective clients by a variety of means, including
referrals from existing clients and contacts at professional society meetings
and seminars with persons involved in group practice as well as trade journal
advertising, direct mail advertising, and telemarketing. These employees are
knowledgeable about medical and dental group practice management, as well as
computer information systems and the Company's products. Typically, these
employees make presentations to potential clients by demonstrating the QSI
system and its capabilities on the prospective client's premises. In addition,
the Company performs remote demonstrations by utilizing a prospective client's
PC or by sending the prospective client a telecommunications kit including a
terminal.
The Company's sales cycle can vary significantly and typically ranges from three
to 12 months from initial contact to contract execution. Standard payment terms
include a 25% down payment with the balance due when the hardware is installed
and the installed system is ready for training. As part of the fees paid by its
clients, the Company receives up-front licensing fees, a monthly service fee
based on client configuration and the number of user ports and a nominal annual
license renewal fee based on the number of user ports.
26
<PAGE> 29
Several clients have purchased the Company's system and, in turn, are providing
time-share services to local single and group practice practitioners. Under the
time-share agreements, the client provides the use of its system for a fee to
one or more practitioners. Although the Company does not receive a fee directly
from the time-share client, implementation of time-share arrangements has
resulted in the purchase of additional system capacity by the client offering
the time-share services, as well as new system purchases made by the time-share
clients. The Company continues to concentrate its sales and marketing efforts on
medical and dental practices, dental schools, physician clinics, MSOs, PHOs and
community health centers. MSOs and PHOs to which the Company has sold systems
provide use of the Company's software to those group and single practices
associated with the organization or hospital on either a time-sharing basis or
by directing the Company to contract with those practices for the sale of
stand-alone turnkey systems.
The Company has entered into marketing assistance agreements with certain of its
clients pursuant to which the clients allow the Company to demonstrate to
potential clients the use of systems on the existing clients' premises. In
addition, the Company has established certain of its clients as dealers for its
systems. Through this arrangement, the dealer markets and sells QSI systems to
prospects in a local territory. These prospects are generally smaller health
care facilities than those actively pursued by the Company. The Company's
PC-based products are well suited to this dealer marketing. In addition, the
dealer typically provides a variety of ongoing services for its clients. Dealers
are compensated based on system size and profitability, and the services which
they perform in lieu of the Company.
The Company often assists prospective clients in identifying third party sources
for financing the purchase of QSI systems. The financing usually is obtained by
the client directly from institutional lenders and typically takes the form of a
loan from the institution secured by the system to be purchased. Most of the
clients purchasing QSI systems have been assisted by the Company in finding
sources of financing for such purchases.
The Company has numerous clients and does not believe that the loss of any
single client would have a material adverse effect on the Company. No client
accounted for ten percent or more of net revenues during fiscal years ended
March 31, 1995 or 1994.
CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SUPPORT
The Company believes its success is attributable in part to its exceptional
customer service and support. The Company provides support to its clients seven
days a week, 24 hours a day. In addition, the Company's policy is to respond to
user defined system-down emergencies with a response time of 15 minutes or less.
All Company systems have a dedicated port for dial-up remote access,
facilitating rapid diagnosis by QSI technicians of system inquiries. Most
inquiries can be resolved without the need to dispatch Company technicians.
These support services also provide the Company with the opportunity to monitor
changes in each client's information processing requirements and to recommend
the purchase of system hardware or software enhancements designed to satisfy
these additional requirements. The Company believes that its commitment to
provide extensive support has contributed significantly to the development of
its business.
The Company offers clients support services for all system components, including
hardware and software maintenance, for a fixed monthly fee. In the last five
years, more than 90% of the Company's clients have elected to purchase the
Company's maintenance and support services. Hardware maintenance services are
coordinated through the Company's headquarters in California, with support from
field service locations in Northern and Southern California, New Jersey, North
Carolina and Wisconsin. The Company also subcontracts with IBM to perform
specific hardware maintenance tasks under QSI's direction. This arrangement has
provided the Company with economies of scale associated with IBM's service
infrastructure while still maintaining service standards.
The Company's continuing system software support staff operates from the
Company's offices in California and a location in Virginia. The support staff is
comprised of specialists who are knowledgeable in the area of hardware and
software technology as well as in the day-to-day operations of a group practice.
The Company's on-line access to all client systems enables the support staff to
provide immediate assistance to clients. This assistance ranges from correcting
minor procedural problems in the client's system to performing complex
27
<PAGE> 30
data base reconstructions or software updates. The Company also utilizes an
automated on-line support system which assists clients in resolving minor
problems and facilitates automated electronic retrieval of problems along with
symptoms following a client's call to the Company's automated support system.
Additionally, the on-line support system maintains a complete call record at the
client's facility and the Company.
IMPLEMENTATION AND TRAINING
The Company provides implementation and training services from its headquarters
in California as well as remote locations in Florida, Kansas, Texas, and
Washington. The Company believes that its system delivery, implementation and
support services are key elements of its successful client relationships. When a
client signs a contract for the purchase of a system, a client manager, trained
in physician group practice procedures, is assigned to ensure that the client is
fully informed of system options and that the proper system configuration is
installed. This information is determined through discussions with the client
and observation of the client's practice. Once the set of software features is
established, the software configuration unique to a given client can be created
in an automated fashion.
Before activation of the client's system, Company personnel convert the relevant
client data into the system. Typically, the Company interfaces electronically to
convert the client's data from another computer system, allowing for a quick,
cost-effective and accurate conversion. The system is then subjected to
extensive testing which includes processing representative data using the
client's system configuration. In some situations, the data may be retained by
the client on ledger cards or other hard copy. In such situations, the Company
maintains a data entry staff to input the required data.
One or more trainers experienced in group practice procedures are assigned to
conduct an intensive training program for the client's employees. The program
includes a combination of computer assisted instruction ("CAI"), remote training
techniques and training classes conducted by QSI staff at the client's
office(s). CAI consists of workbooks, computer interaction and personal
instruction. CAI is also offered to clients, for an additional charge, after the
initial training program is completed for the purpose of training new and
additional employees. Remote training allows a trainer at the Company's office
to train one or more people at a client site via telephone and computer
connection, thus allowing an interactive and office-specific mode of training
without the expense and time required for travel. The Company also provides
ongoing training through electronic classrooms where employees at different
locations from the same or different companies can simultaneously interact
on-line with a trainer. In addition, the Company's on-line "help" documentation
feature facilitates client training as well as ongoing support.
COMPETITION
The market for health care information systems is intensely competitive and the
Company faces significant competition from a number of different sources. In
addition, several of the Company's competitors have significantly greater
financial, technical, product development and marketing resources than the
Company. The Company believes its principal competitive advantages are the
features and capabilities of its products and services, its high level of
customer support and its 20 year experience in the industry. The industry is
highly fragmented and includes numerous competitors, none of which the Company
believes dominates the overall market for group practice management systems. The
Company has not encountered substantial competition in the dental group
practices market of six or more dentists. The Company believes that numerous
firms sell computerized data processing systems to group dental practices
consisting of five or fewer dentists.
Among the Company's principal competitors for medical group practice clients are
health care information systems companies such as IDX Corporation, Medic
Computer Systems, Physician Computer Networks, Inc., and Cycare Systems, Inc.
Furthermore, the Company also competes indirectly and to varying degrees with
other major health care information companies, information management companies
generally, and other software developers which may more directly enter the
markets in which the Company competes. There can be no assurance that future
competition will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
28
<PAGE> 31
financial condition and results of operations. Competitive pressures and other
factors, such as new product introductions by the Company or its competitors,
may result in price erosion that could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
PRODUCT ENHANCEMENT AND DEVELOPMENT
The computer software and hardware and medical practice management industries
are characterized by rapid technological change requiring the Company to engage
in continuing efforts to improve its systems. During fiscal years 1995 and 1994,
and the six months ended September 30, 1995 the Company expended approximately
$1,467,200, $1,318,200 and $656,200 respectively, on research and development
activities. In addition, many of the Company's product enhancements have
resulted from software development work performed under contracts with QSI
clients. To the extent the Company fails to achieve technological advances
comparable to those made by others in the computer and medical practice
management industries, its products and services may become obsolete. See "Risk
Factors -- Technological Change."
GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION
The health care industry is subject to changing political, economic and
regulatory influences that may affect the procurement practices and operation of
health care facilities. During the past several years the health care industry
has been subject to an increase in governmental regulation of, among other
things, reimbursement rates and certain capital expenditures. Certain
legislators have announced that they intend to examine proposals to reform
certain aspects of the U.S. health care system including proposals which may
increase governmental involvement in health care, lower reimbursement rates and
otherwise change the operating environment for the Company's clients. Health
care providers may react to these proposals and the uncertainty surrounding such
proposals by curtailing or deferring investments, including those for the
Company's systems and related services. On the other hand, changes in the
regulatory environment have increased and may continue to increase the needs of
health care organizations for cost-effective data management and thereby enhance
the marketability of the Company's systems and related services. The Company
cannot predict what impact, if any, such proposals or health care reforms might
have on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company's software may be subject to regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (the "FDA") as a medical device. Such regulation could require
the registration of the applicable manufacturing facility and software/hardware
products, application of detailed recordkeeping and manufacturing standards, and
FDA approval or clearance prior to marketing. An approval or clearance could
create delays in marketing, and the FDA could require supplemental filings or
object to certain of these applications. See "Risk Factors -- Uncertainty in
Health Care Industry; Government Regulation."
EMPLOYEES
As of January 4, 1996, the Company employed 126 persons. Systems analysts,
programmers and qualified sales and marketing personnel are in short supply and,
consequently, competition for such individuals is intense. The Company believes
that its future success depends in part upon recruiting and retaining qualified
marketing and technical personnel as well as other employees. The Company
considers its employee relations to be good.
29
<PAGE> 32
PROPERTIES
The Company's principal administrative, data processing, marketing and
development operations are located in approximately 15,800 square feet of leased
space in Tustin, California under a lease which expires in October 1996. In
addition, the Company leases approximately 13,200 square feet of space in Santa
Ana, California to house its assembly and warehouse operations, and an aggregate
of approximately 1875 feet of space in Florida, Georgia, New York, Texas and
Washington to house field sales, training and service operations. These leases,
including options, have expiration dates ranging from month-to-month to October
31, 1996 and provide for aggregate annual rental payments of approximately
$379,000. The Company believes that its facilities are adequate for its current
needs and that suitable additional or substitute space is available, if needed.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is a party to various legal proceedings incidental to its business,
none of which are considered by the Company to be material.

(1) The value of unexercised in-the-money options is the market price of the
shares at fiscal year end ($3.25) less the exercise price of the option.
1989 STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Company's 1989 Stock Option Plan (the "1989 Plan") was adopted by the Board
of Directors on July 19, 1989 and approved by the shareholders on September 6,
1989. One million shares of Common Stock have been authorized for issuance under
the 1989 Plan. The number of shares issued to directors under the 1989 Plan when
added to the number of shares issuable to directors upon the exercise of stock
options granted under any other stock option plan maintained by the Company
shall not exceed 750,000.
The 1989 Plan provides that salaried officers or key employees, and non-employee
directors of the Company or its subsidiaries may, at the discretion of the Plan
Administrator, be granted options to purchase shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price not less than 85% of their fair market value on the option grant
date. However, any option granted to a person who owns stock possessing more
than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the
Company (or its parent or any subsidiary) must have a purchase price of at least
110% of the fair market value on the grant date, and a term not longer than five
years.
The plan may be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company ("Board")
or a Committee consisting of three or more directors who are appointed by, and
serve at the pleasure of, the Board (the "Committee"). A Committee has not been
appointed. The Board as Plan Administrator has complete discretion to determine
which eligible individuals are to receive option grants, the number of shares
subject to each such grant, the status of any granted option as either an
incentive stock option or a non-statutory stock option under the federal tax
laws, the vesting schedule to be in effect for the option grant, and the maximum
term for which any granted option is to remain outstanding. Option grants to
nonemployee directors must be approved by the Board. Upon an acquisition of the
Company by merger or asset sale, each outstanding option may be subject to
accelerated vesting under certain circumstances.
The Board may amend or modify the 1989 Plan at any time. The 1989 Plan will
terminate on May 30, 1999, unless sooner terminated by the Board.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
The Company does not have a compensation committee or any other committee of the
Board of Directors performing equivalent functions. Instead, the full Board of
Directors makes decisions regarding executive officer compensation. During the
Company's last complete fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, the members of the
Board of Directors were Sheldon Razin, Janet Razin, John Bowers, M.D., William
Bowers, George Bristol, Graeme Frehner and Gordon Setran.
EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS
The Company does not presently have any employment contracts in effect with the
President or any of the other Named Executive Officers other than the
arrangement referenced above in "Executive Compensation" regarding Robert Beck.
In connection with the Company's arrangement with Mr. Beck, Mr. Razin has agreed
that in the event he sells more than 20% of the Common Stock of the Company
beneficially owned by him at such time of sale, then Mr. Beck shall be entitled
to sell, in the same transaction as Mr. Razin and on the same terms and
conditions, a pro rata amount of the Common Stock held by Mr. Beck at such time
pursuant to stock options granted by the Company. On December 12, 1995, Mr. Beck
waived any and all rights under that agreement with respect to the offering
contemplated hereby.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Directors of the Company who are also employees of the Company are not
compensated for their services as directors or committee members. Directors of
the Company who are not also employees receive a fee of $2,500 per year for
serving on the Board of Directors. Directors who serve on a committee of the
Board of Directors receive an annual fee of $1,000 and a fee of $250 for each
committee meeting attended, together with reasonable expenses of attendance at
committee meetings.
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that the liability of the
Company's directors for monetary damages shall be eliminated to the fullest
extent permissible under California law. This is intended to eliminate the
personal liability of a director for monetary damages in an action brought by or
in the right of the Company for breach of a director's duties to the Company or
its shareholders except for liability: (1) for acts or omissions that involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law; (2) for acts
or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of
the Company or its shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the
part of the director; (3) for any transaction from which a director derived an
improper personal benefit; (4) for acts or omissions that show a reckless
disregard for the director's duty to the Company or its shareholders in
circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the
ordinary course of performing a director's duties, of a risk of serious injury
to the Company or its shareholders; (5) for acts or omissions that constitute an
unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director's
duty to the Company or its shareholders; (6) with respect to certain
transactions, or the approval of transactions in which a director has a material
financial interest; and (7) expressly imposed by statute, for approval of
certain improper distributions to shareholders or certain loans or guarantees.
This provision does not eliminate or limit liability of an officer for any act
or omission as an officer, notwithstanding that the officer is also a director
or that his actions, if negligent or improper, have been ratified by the Board
of Directors. Further, the provision has no effect on claims under federal or
state securities laws and does not affect the availability of injunctions and
other equitable remedies available to the Company's shareholders for any
violation of a director's fiduciary duty to the Company or its shareholders.
Although the validity and scope of the legislation underlying the provision have
not yet been interpreted to any significant extent by the California courts, the
provision may relieve directors of monetary liability to the Company for grossly
negligent conduct, including conduct in situations involving attempted takeovers
of the Company.
The Articles also provide that the Company is authorized to provide
indemnification to its agents (as defined in Section 317 of the California
Corporations Code), through the Company's Bylaws or through agreements
35
<PAGE> 38
with such agents or both, for breach of duty to the Company and its
shareholders, in excess of the indemnification otherwise permitted by Section
317 of the California Corporations Code, subject to the limits on such excess
indemnification set forth in Section 204 of the California Corporations Code.
The Bylaws of the Company provide that a person sued as an agent of the Company
may be indemnified by the Company for reasonable expenses incurred thereby, if
(a) in the case of other than derivative suits, such person has acted in good
faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests
of the Company (and in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful), and (b) in the case of a
derivative suit, such person has acted in good faith in a manner he or she
believed to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and
with such care, including reasonable inquiry, as an ordinarily prudent person,
in a like position would use under similar circumstances. The Bylaws further
provide that no indemnification shall be made in the case of a derivative suit
in respect of any claim as to which such person has been adjudged to be liable
to the corporation, except with court approval, nor shall indemnification be
made for amounts paid in settling or otherwise disposing of a threatened or
pending action, with or without court approval, or for expenses incurred in
defending a threatened or pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed
of without court approval. Indemnification under the Bylaws is mandatory in the
case of an agent of the Company (present or past) who is successful on the
merits in defense of a suit against him or her in such capacity. In all other
cases where indemnification is permitted by the Bylaws, a determination to
indemnify such person must be made by a majority of a quorum of disinterested
directors, a majority of disinterested shareholders, or the court in which the
suit is pending.
The Company has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors in addition
to the indemnification provided for in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.
Among other things, these agreements provide that the Company will indemnify,
subject to certain requirements, each of the Company's directors for certain
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts
incurred by such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or
in the right of the Company, on account of services by such person as a director
or officer of the Company, or as a director or officer of any other company or
enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of the Company.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 20,000,000 shares of Common
Stock, $.01 par value per share.
COMMON STOCK
As of January 4, 1996, there were 4,638,491 shares of Common Stock outstanding
and held of record by 203 shareholders. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled
to one vote for each share held. Following this offering, the holders of Common
Stock, voting as a single class, will be entitled to elect all of the directors
of the Company. Matters submitted for shareholder approval generally require a
majority vote.
The shareholders, upon giving the notice required by California law and the
Company's Bylaws, may cumulate votes for the election of directors. Under
cumulative voting, each shareholder may give one nominee, whose name is placed
in nomination prior to the commencement of voting, a number of votes equal to
the number of directors to be elected, multiplied by the number of votes to
which a shareholder's shares are normally entitled, or distribute such number of
votes among as many nominees as the shareholder sees fit. The effect of
cumulative voting is that the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock may not be able to elect all of the Company's directors.
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be
declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. See
"Price Range for Common Stock and Dividends." In the event of a liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of Common Stock would be
entitled to share ratably in the Company's assets remaining after the payment of
liabilities. Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive or other subscription
rights. The shares of Common Stock are not convertible into any other security.
The outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and the shares being offered hereby
will be, upon issuance and sale, fully paid and nonassessable.
TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR
The transfer agent and registrar for the Company's Common Stock is U.S. Stock
Transfer Corporation.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Upon completion of this offering, the Company will have 5,653,491 shares of
Common Stock outstanding, assuming only 15,000 of the 134,125 stock options
outstanding as of January 4, 1996 will be exercised before the offering. Of this
amount, the 1,500,000 shares sold in this offering (plus any additional shares
sold upon the Underwriters' exercise of their over-allotment option) and
approximately 2,289,357 other shares (subject in certain cases to the volume and
other limitations of Rule 144) will be available for immediate sale in the
public market as of the date of this Prospectus.
Upon the expiration of a 90-day Lockup Period (as defined below), approximately
1,864,134 shares of the Company's Common Stock will become available for sale in
the public market subject to compliance with Rule 144.
In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose
shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned shares for at least two years
is entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that does
not exceed the greater of (i) 1% of the then outstanding shares of the Common
Stock (approximately 56,535 shares immediately after this offering) or (ii) the
average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding such
sale, subject to the filing of a Form 144 with respect to such sale. A person
(or persons whose shares are aggregated) who is not deemed to have been an
affiliate of the Company at any time during the 90 days immediately preceding
the sale who has beneficially owned his or her shares for at least three years
is entitled to sell such shares pursuant to Rule 144(k) without regard to the
limitations described above. Persons deemed to be affiliates must always sell
pursuant to Rule 144, even after the applicable holding periods have been
satisfied.
38
<PAGE> 41
In addition, the Commission has published a notice of proposed rulemaking which,
if adopted as proposed, would shorten the applicable holding periods under Rule
144(d) and Rule 144(k) to one and two years, respectively (from the current two
and three-year periods). The Company cannot predict whether such amendments will
be adopted or the effect thereof on the trading market for its Common Stock. The
Company is unable to estimate the number of shares that will be sold under Rule
144, since this will depend on the market price for the Common Stock of the
Company, the personal circumstances of the sellers and other factors. There can
be no assurance that a significant public market for the Common Stock will be
sustained after the offering. Any future sale of substantial amounts of Common
Stock in the open market may adversely affect the market price of the Common
Stock offered hereby.
The Selling Shareholders of the Company, who in the aggregate will beneficially
own, following the offering, 1,805,774 shares of Common Stock, have agreed that
they will not, without the prior written consent of Pacific Growth Equities,
Inc. offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by them for a period of 90 days (the "Lockup Period")
after the date of this Prospectus. In addition, the Company has agreed pursuant
to the Underwriting Agreement that it will not sell any Common Stock without the
prior consent of the Representatives of the Underwriters for a period of 90 days
from the date of this Prospectus, except that the Company may, without such
consent, grant certain options to purchase stock pursuant to the Company's 1989
Plan.
On November 6, 1989, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-8
under the Securities Act to register shares of the Common Stock issued or
reserved for issuance under the 1989 Plan, thus permitting the resale of such
shares by nonaffiliates in the public market without restriction under the
Securities Act.

UNDERWRITING
The Underwriters named below, represented by Pacific Growth Equities, Inc. and
Cruttenden Roth Incorporated (the "Representatives"), have severally agreed,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement, to
purchase from the Company and the Selling Shareholders the number of shares of
Common Stock indicated below opposite their respective names at the public
offering price less underwriting discounts and commissions set forth on the
cover page of this Prospectus. The Underwriting Agreement provides that the
obligations of the Underwriters are subject to certain conditions precedent and
that the Underwriters are committed to purchase all of the shares if they
purchase any.

The Representatives have advised the Company and the Selling Shareholders that
the Underwriters propose initially to offer the Common Stock to the public on
the terms set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus. The Underwriters may
allow to selected dealers a concession of not more than $ per share,
and the Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession of
not more than $ per share to certain other dealers. After the public
offering, the offering price and the other selling terms may be changed by the
Representatives. The Common Stock is offered subject to receipt and acceptance
by the Underwriters and to certain other conditions, including the right to
reject orders in whole or in part.
Certain of the Selling Shareholders have granted an option to the Underwriters,
exercisable during the 30-day period after the date of this Prospectus, to
purchase up to a maximum 225,000 additional shares of Common Stock to cover
overallotments, if any, at the same price per share as the initial shares to be
purchased from the Company and the Selling Shareholders by the Underwriters. To
the extent that the Underwriters exercise this option, the Underwriters will be
committed, subject to certain conditions, to purchase such additional shares in
approximately the same proportion as set forth in the table shown above. The
Underwriters may purchase such shares only to cover over-allotments made in
connection with this offering. The Company will not receive any proceeds from
the sale of shares of Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders.
The Underwriting Agreement provides that the Company and the Selling
Shareholders will indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities,
including civil liabilities under the Securities Act, or will contribute to
payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.
All of the Company's officers and directors have agreed not to offer for sale,
sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of the Company's Common Stock for a
period of 90 days after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written
consent of Pacific Growth Equities, Inc. The Company has agreed that it will not
issue, sell or grant options to purchase or otherwise dispose of any shares of
its Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for its Common
Stock, except with respect to options or other rights outstanding on the date of
this Prospectus or pursuant to the 1989 Stock Option Plan, for a period of 90
days after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written consent of the
Representatives.
In connection with this offering, certain Underwriters and selling group members
(if any) who are qualifying registered market makers on Nasdaq may engage in
passive market making transactions in the Common Stock on Nasdaq in accordance
with Rule 10b-6A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), during the two business day period before commencement of sales
in this offering. The passive market making transactions must comply with
applicable price and volume limits and be identified as
40
<PAGE> 43
such. In general, a passive market maker may display its bid at a price not in
excess of the highest independent bid for the security. If all independent bids
are lowered below the passive market maker's bid, however, such bid must then be
lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded. Net purchases by a passive
market maker on each day are generally limited to a specified percentage of the
passive market maker's average daily trading volume in the Common Stock during a
price period and must be discontinued when such limit is reached. Passive market
making may stabilize the market price of the Common Stock at a level above that
which might otherwise prevail and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any
time.

Certain legal matters with respect to the issuance of the Common Stock offered
hereby will be passed upon for the Company and the Selling Shareholders by
Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison LLP, Newport Beach, California. Certain legal
matters relating to the offering will be passed upon for the Underwriters by

NOTES TO PRO FORMA
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations and balance
sheet give effect on a purchase accounting basis to the acquisition of an
additional 26% equity interest in Clinitec International, Inc. (Clinitec) for $3
million (the Acquisition) (resulting in a 51% majority ownership in Clinitec by
the Company). The pro forma consolidated balance sheet also gives effect to the
Offering and the application of the estimated net proceeds therefrom. The pro
forma consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31,
1995 is comprised of the results of Quality Systems, Inc. (QSI) for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 1995 and the results of Clinitec for the year ended
December 31, 1994. The pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the
six months ended September 30, 1995 is comprised of the results of QSI for the
six months ended September 30, 1995 and the results of Clinitec for the six
months ended June 30, 1995. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of
September 30, 1995 has been prepared by consolidating the balance sheet of QSI
as of September 30, 1995 with the balance sheet of Clinitec as of June 30, 1995.
The pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 1995 and the six months ended September 30, 1995 assume that the
Acquisition occurred at April 1, 1994. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet
as of September 30, 1995 assumes that the Acquisition of the majority interest
in Clinitec and the Offering occurred on September 30, 1995. The pro forma
consolidated statements of operations and balance sheet do not purport to
represent the results of operations or financial position of the Company had the
transactions and events assumed therein occurred on the dates specified, nor are
they necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved in
the future. The pro forma adjustments are based on management's preliminary
assumptions regarding purchase accounting adjustments. The actual allocation of
the purchase price will be adjusted to the extent that actual amounts differ
from management's estimates in accordance with FAS No. 38, "Accounting for
Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises."
The pro forma consolidated financial information is based upon certain
assumptions and adjustments described in the notes to the pro forma financial
statements. The pro forma consolidated financial information should be read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements, and related notes, of QSI
and Clinitec contained elsewhere herein.
2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
The following describe the pro forma adjustments made to reflect the
acquisition of an additional 26% interest in Clinitec:
a) To reflect the acquisition of an additional interest in Clinitec,
providing QSI with a 51% ownership interest through a purchase of
Clinitec convertible preferred stock for $3 million. Concurrent with
this acquisition, Clinitec is expected to distribute dividends to its
common stockholders of $1.5 million.
b) To reverse QSI's equity accounting entry to record its portion of
Clinitec's net loss.
F-5
<PAGE> 49
c) To record purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the acquisition
of the aggregate 51% ownership interest based on an appraisal of the
fair value of the net assets of Clinitec as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Net tangible assets................................................ $ 1,248
Intangible assets related to existing technology................... 357
In-process research and development................................ 3,846
Deferred tax liability ($143 related to intangible assets
consisting of existing technology acquired and $1,308 related to
in-process research and development)............................. (1,451)
-------
Total purchase price.......................................... $ 4,000
=======
</TABLE>
d) To eliminate Clinitec's equity accounts and QSI's investment account and
set up 49% minority interest.
e) To record amortization of the intangible assets related to existing
technology based on the straight line method and a three year useful
life and the corresponding tax benefit.
f) To reflect the cumulative effect of the above adjustments on retained
earnings.
In accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 4, the Company is required to
write-off the $3.8 million in-process research and development acquired in the
acquisition, net of tax benefit of $1.3 million. This write-off will be
reflected in the quarter ending March 31, 1996 and has not been reflected in the
Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements.
3. PRO FORMA AS ADJUSTED
Pro Forma As Adjusted amounts reflect the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of
QSI common stock for estimated net proceeds of $21.7 million.
4. PRO FORMA WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES OUTSTANDING
Pro forma weighted average shares assume as outstanding 128,000 of the
shares being offered by the Company in the Offering, which represent the
approximate number of shares that have to be sold to fund the incremental
$3,000,000 investment in Clinitec.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 1993, 1994 AND 1995
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business -- Quality Systems, Inc. (QSI or the Company)
develops and markets proprietary information systems for medical and dental
group practices, physician hospital organizations, management service
organizations, health maintenance organizations and community health centers.
The Company's proprietary software systems include summary medical records and
general patient information, appointment scheduling, billing, insurance claims
submission and processing, managed care implementation and referral management,
treatment outcome studies, treatment planning, drug formularies, word processing
and accounting. In addition to providing fully integrated solutions to its
client, the Company provides its clients with comprehensive hardware and
software maintenance and support services, system training services and
electronic claims submission services.
Revenue Recognition -- Licenses, sales of computer systems and system
upgrades are recognized at the time the basic software and hardware is shipped
and the estimated costs to complete the systems are not considered significant
in accordance with Statement of Position 91-1, Software Revenue Recognition.
Estimated costs to complete are normally insignificant and are charged to
expense in the period in which the sale is recognized. These costs typically
include labor and travel costs associated with training, installation and data
conversion. If estimated costs to complete are significant, revenue is
recognized on a percentage of completion basis.
Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the contract.
Advance maintenance revenue billings are included in deferred service revenue on
the accompanying balance sheets. Sales of supplies are recognized at the time of
shipment.
Cash equivalents -- The Company considers all highly liquid interest
earning deposits purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to
be cash equivalents.
Short-term investments -- The Company adopted Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities (SFAS No. 115), as of the end of the fiscal year ended March 31,
1994. The cumulative effect from the change in accounting principle was not
material in determining net earnings for the year ended March 31, 1994. In
accordance with SFAS No. 115, investments are classified into one of the
following categories:
- Held to maturity -- Debt securities for which the Company has the intent
and the ability to hold to maturity.
- Trading -- Debt securities that do not meet the "intent-to-hold"
criterion and equity securities, both of which are bought and held
principally for the purpose of being sold in the near term.
- Available-for-sale -- Debt securities that do not meet the
"intent-to-hold" criterion and equity securities that are not classified
as trading securities.
Held to maturity securities are carried in the balance sheet at cost
(unless there is a decline in the value of the individual securities that is not
due to temporary declines), and realized gains and losses are recorded in the
income statement in the period that they are earned or incurred. Trading
securities are carried in the balance sheet at fair market value and unrealized
gains and losses are recorded in the statement of operations. Available-for-sale
securities are carried in the balance sheet at fair market value. Realized gains
and losses are recorded in the income statement when they are earned or
incurred, and unrealized gains and losses, net of tax effect, are recognized as
a component of shareholders' equity.
Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are determined on a

Accounts Receivable -- A majority of the Company's system sales are
financed by third-party sources, while the Company provides credit for most
maintenance contract sales. The Company performs ongoing

credit evaluations of its customers and maintains reserves for potential credit
losses, which have been within management's expectations.
Inventories -- Inventories are valued at lower of cost (first-in,
first-out) or market. Certain inventories are maintained for customer support
pursuant to service agreements and are amortized over a five-year period using
the straight-line method.
Equipment and Improvements -- Equipment and improvements are stated at cost
less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of
equipment and improvements are provided over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, or the related lease terms if shorter, by the straight-line method.
Useful lives range from five to seven years.
Software Development Costs -- Development costs incurred in the research
and development of new software products and enhancements to existing software
products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been
established. After technological feasibility is established, any additional
development costs are capitalized and amortized over the economic life of the
related product in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or
Otherwise Marketed. Accumulated amortization of capitalized software costs
amounted to $750,000 (1994) and $582,400 (1995). The Company performs an annual
review of the recoverability of such capitalized software costs. At the time a
determination has been made that capitalized amounts are not recoverable based
on the estimated cash flows to be generated from the applicable software, any
remaining capitalized amounts would be written off.
Income Taxes -- Effective April 1, 1993, the Company adopted Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109).
Financial statements for prior years have not been restated, and there was no
material cumulative effect from the change in accounting principle.
In accordance with SFAS No. 109, income taxes are provided for the tax
effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of
taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between
the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The
deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences
of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets
and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes also are recognized for
operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income and tax
credits that are available to offset future income taxes. Valuation allowances
are established as a reduction of net deferred tax assets when management cannot
determine that the recoverability of such assets is probable.
Earnings per Share -- Primary and fully diluted earnings per share for the
year ending March 31, 1994 are based on the weighted average number of common
shares and common share equivalents outstanding of 4,342,000 and 4,461,000,
respectively. The difference between primary and fully diluted earnings per
share for the years ended March 31, 1993 and 1995 was not significant and
earnings per share was calculated based on the weighted average number of common
shares and common share equivalents outstanding of 4,187,000 and 4,606,000,
respectively. Common stock equivalents consist primarily of stock options and
are calculated using the treasury stock method.

5. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has a profit sharing and retirement plan (the Retirement Plan)
for the benefit of substantially all of its employees. The Retirement Plan was
amended during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1994 to add 401(k) features.
Participating employees may defer up to 15% of compensation per year. The
Company's annual contribution is determined by the Company's Board of Directors
and the Retirement Plan may be amended or discontinued at the discretion of the
Board of Directors. Contributions of $10,000, $19,000 and $21,000 were made to

key employees. Participating employees may defer all or a portion of their
compensation for a Deferral Plan year. In addition, the Company may, but is not
required to, make contributions into the Deferral Plan on behalf of
participating employees. Each participating employee's deferred compensation and
share of Company contributions have been invested in a life insurance policy
which has death benefit and mutual fund features. Investment decisions are made
by each participating employee from a family of mutual funds. The Company is the
owner and beneficiary of the life insurance policies and has an obligation to
pay the greater of the death benefit or the net cash surrender value upon each
employee's death or termination. The net cash surrender value of the life
insurance policies and the related

1989 Stock Option Plan -- During fiscal 1990, the Company's shareholders
approved a stock option plan (1989 Plan) under which 1,000,000 shares of common
stock have been reserved for the issuance of options.
The 1989 Plan provides that salaried officers or key employees, and
non-employee directors of the Company or its subsidiaries may, at the discretion
of the Plan Administrator, be granted options to purchase shares of Common Stock
at an exercise price not less than 85% of their fair market value on the option
grant date.
The Plan may be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company
(Board) or a Committee consisting of three or more directors who are appointed
by, and serve at the pleasure of, the Board (the Committee). A Committee has not
been appointed. The Board as Plan Administrator has complete discretion to
determine which eligible individuals are to receive option grants, the number of
shares subject to each such grant, the status of any granted option as either an
incentive stock option or a non-statutory stock option under federal tax laws,
the vesting schedule to be in effect for the option grant, and the option grant,
and the maximum term for which any granted option is to remain outstanding.

Option grants to non-employee directors must be approved by the Board. Upon
an acquisition of the Company by merger or asset sale, each outstanding option
will be subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances. The Board
may amend or modify the 1989 Plan at any time. The 1989 Plan will terminate on
May 30, 1999, unless sooner terminated by the Board.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company leases its facilities and office under noncancelable operating
lease agreements which contain lease renewal options through October 1996. The
Company has rental commitments in fiscal 1996 and 1997 of $345,000 and $196,000,
respectively. Total rental expense for all operating leases was $423,000,
$412,000 and $387,000 for the years ended March 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995,
respectively.
The Company is a party to various claims, legal actions and complaints
arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes such matters
are without merit, or involve such amounts that unfavorable disposition would
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements.
8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In May 1995, the Company entered into a strategic relationship with
Clinitec International, Inc. (Clinitec), a developer of electronic medical
records software systems marketed under the trade name "NextGen". As part of
this relationship, the Company acquired a 25% equity interest in Clinitec for $1
million, and acquired an option to purchase an aggregate 51% equity interest in
Clinitec for an additional $3 million, exercisable at any time through August
1997.
As part of the agreement with Clinitec, the Company received the
non-exclusive right to market NextGen for medical applications, and the
world-wide exclusive right to market NextGen for dental markets. The Company
anticipates being able to integrate its medical and dental practice management
systems with NextGen software in order to provide medical and dental group
practices with a state-of-the-art healthcare office of the future.
The investment will be accounted for using the equity method of accounting,
whereby the original investment is recorded at cost and is adjusted periodically
to recognize the Company's 25% share of Clinitec's earnings or losses after the
date of investment.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994 AND 1995 (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The information set forth in these financial statements of Quality Systems,
Inc. (the Company) as of September 30, 1995 and for the six months ended
September 30, 1994 and 1995 is unaudited. The information reflects all
adjustments consisting only of normal recurring entries that, in the opinion of
management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results
of operations of the Company for the periods indicated. Results of operations
for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations for the full fiscal year or for any future period.
Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements has been condensed or omitted, in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The information contained in these interim financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements contained
elsewhere in this Registration Statement.
2. NET EARNINGS PER SHARE
Net earnings per share for the six months ended September 30, 1994 and 1995
was computed based on the weighted average number of shares actually
outstanding, plus the shares that would be outstanding, using the treasury stock
method, assuming the exercise of all outstanding options which were considered
to be common stock equivalents.
3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has recently issued Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation, which
requires the determination and disclosure of compensation costs implicit in
stock option grants. The Company is required to adopt this standard beginning in
fiscal 1997. The Company does not plan to implement this standard until that
time and has not been able to quantify the effect of this standard.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM JANUARY 31, 1994 (INCEPTION) TO DECEMBER 31, 1994
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Clinitec International, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on January
31, 1994. The Company designs, assembles, markets, installs, maintains and
supports electronic medical records software systems using a client/server
platform, a graphical user interface and a relational database format to permit
flexibility in screen customization and logic flow.
Revenue Recognition -- In accordance with Statement of Position 91-1,
Software Revenue Recognition, sales of electronic medical records software
systems are recorded when the basic software and hardware is shipped if the
Company's future obligations are not considered significant and collection is
probable. Estimated costs to complete system installations and modifications are
charged to expense in the period in which the sale is recorded. If the Company's
future obligations are considered significant, revenue is recognized on the
percentage of completion basis. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over
the life of the contract.
Cash equivalents -- The Company considers all highly liquid interest
earning deposits purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to
be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable -- The Company provides credit terms for most sales.
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains
reserves for potential credit losses, which have been within management's
expectations.
Inventories -- Inventories are valued at lower of cost (first-in,
first-out) or market. The Company provides an allowance for excess and obsolete
inventories based on estimates using experience and projected sales.
Equipment and Improvements -- Equipment and improvements are stated at cost
less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of
equipment and improvements are provided over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, or the related lease terms if shorter, by the straight-line method.
Useful lives range from five to seven years.
Software Development Costs -- Development costs incurred in the research
and development of new software products and enhancements to existing software
products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been
established. After technological feasibility is established, any additional
development costs are capitalized and amortized over the economic life
(generally three years) of the related product in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed. Accumulated amortization of
capitalized software costs amounted to $9,000 for the period from January 31,
1994 (inception) to December 31, 1994. The Company performs an annual review of
the recoverability of such capitalized software costs. At the time a
determination has been made that capitalized amounts are not recoverable based
on the estimated cash flows to be generated from the applicable software, any
remaining capitalized amounts would be written off.
Income Taxes -- The Company had elected to be taxed as a S corporation
under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state statutes.
Accordingly, the Company's taxable income or loss is treated as if it were
distributed to the shareholders. In May 1995, concurrent with the sale of
preferred stock (Note 6), the Company terminated its S corporation status.
The Company accounts for income taxes under Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109). In accordance with SFAS No.
109, income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in
the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes
related primarily to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for
financial and tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent
the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be
taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.
Deferred taxes also

CLINITEC INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM JANUARY 31, 1994 (INCEPTION) TO DECEMBER 31,
1994 -- (CONTINUED)
are recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable
income and tax credits that are available to offset future income taxes.
Valuation allowances are established as a reduction of net deferred tax assets
when management cannot determine that it is more likely than not the assets are
recoverable.
Stock Split -- During 1995, the Company effected two stock splits
aggregating 4,075:1. All share amounts in the accompanying financial statements
have been restated to reflect the splits.
New Accounting Pronouncement -- The Financial Accounting Standards Board
has recently issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-based Compensation, which requires the determination and disclosure of
compensation costs implicit in stock option grants. The Company is required to
adopt this standard beginning fiscal 1996. The Company does not plan to
implement this standard until that time and has not been able to quantify the
effect of this standard at the present time.
2. EQUIPMENT AND IMPROVEMENTS
Equipment and improvements consisted of the following at December 31, 1994
(in thousands):

3. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
The Company has a Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) plan for the benefit of
substantially all of its employees. The SEP is a type of defined contribution
plan whereby participating employees may defer compensation up to certain annual
IRS limitations. The Company does not make any contributions to the plan.
4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Leases -- The Company leases its principal facility and office under a
noncancelable operating lease agreement which expires May 1997. The Company has
rental commitments in fiscal 1995, 1996 and 1997 of $26,200, $26,700 and 18,000,
respectively.
Total rental expense for the period from January 31, 1994 (Inception) to
December 31, 1994 was approximately $10,000.
Litigation -- The Company is a party to various claims, legal actions and
complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes such
matters are without merit, or involve such amounts that unfavorable disposition
would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements.
Employment Agreements -- The Company has entered into employment agreements
of three to five years with certain key employees. Such agreements may normally
be terminated by the Company if specified performance criteria are not met.
Under the term of the agreements, the Company is obligated to pay aggregate base
salaries of $256,000, $256,000, $228,000, $132,000 and $115,000 in fiscal 1995,
1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Certain agreements have provisions for
the payment of cash or stock bonus' based on specified performance criteria. The
aggregate maximum number of shares of common stock which may be issued pursuant
to employment agreements as of December 31, 1994 is 42,600 common shares.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
All significant sales in 1994 were to customers which are also shareholders
in Clinitec. As of December 31, 1994, all accounts receivable were from related
parties.
6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In May 1995, the Company entered into a strategic relationship with Quality
Systems, Inc. (QSI) to market the Company's product. As part of this
relationship, the Company sold convertible preferred stock representing a 25%
equity interest in Clinitec to QSI for $1 million and granted QSI an option to
acquire an aggregate 51% equity interest in Clinitec for an additional $3
million, exercisable at any time through August 1997.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The information set forth in these financial statements of Clinitec
International, Inc. (the Company) as of September 30, 1995 and for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994 and 1995 is unaudited. The information reflects
all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring entries that, in the opinion
of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and
results of operations of the Company for the periods indicated. Results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
of operations for the full fiscal year.
Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements has been condensed or omitted, in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The information contained in these interim financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements contained
elsewhere in this Registration Statement.
2. SALE OF CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
In May 1995, the Company entered into a strategic relationship with Quality
Systems, Inc. (QSI) to market the Company's product. As part of this
relationship, the Company sold convertible preferred stock representing a 25%
equity interest in Clinitec to QSI for $1 million and granted QSI an option to
acquire an aggregate 51% equity interest in Clinitec for an additional $3
million, exercisable at any time through August 1997. The preferred stock is
convertible to common stock on a 1:1 basis, which may be adjusted based on
certain provisions limiting dilution.
As a result of the above transaction, the Company terminated its S
Corporation election for tax purposes. The cumulative effect of such change in
tax status on the Company's financial position and results of operations was not
significant.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 317 of the California General Corporation Law provides generally that a
person sued as a director, officer or agent of a corporation may be indemnified
by the corporation for reasonable expenses, including counsel fees, if (a) in
the case of other than derivative suits, he has acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation
(and in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
that his conduct was unlawful), and (b) in the case of a derivative suit, he has
acted in good faith in a manner he believed to be in the best interests of the
corporation and its shareholders, and with such care, including reasonable
inquiry, as an ordinarily prudent person, in a like position would use under
similar circumstances. Section 317 provides that no indemnification shall be
made in the case of a derivative suit in respect of any claim as to which a
director, officer or agent has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation,
except with court approval, nor shall indemnification be made for costs of and
expenses in connection with settlement, with court approval. Indemnification is
mandatory in the case of a director, officer, or agent who is successful on the
merits in defense of a suit against him. The determination whether to indemnify
a director, officer or agent is made by a majority of disinterested directors, a
majority of disinterested shareholders, or the court in which the suit is
pending.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that the liability of the
Company's directors for monetary damages shall be eliminated to the fullest
extent permissible under California law. This is intended to eliminate the
personal liability of a director for monetary damages in an action brought by or
in the right of the Company for breach of a director's duties to the Company or
its shareholders except for liability: (1) for acts or omissions that involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law; (2) for acts
or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of
the Company or its shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the
part of the director; (3) for any transaction from which a director derived an
improper personal benefit; (4) for acts or omissions that show a reckless
disregard for the director's duty to the Company or its shareholders in
circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the
ordinary course of performing a director's duties, of a risk of serious injury
to the Company or its shareholders; (5) for acts or omissions that constitute an
unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts
II-1
<PAGE> 81
to an abdication of the director's duty to the Company or its shareholders; (6)
with respect to certain transactions, or the approval of transactions in which a
director has a material financial interest; and (7) expressly imposed by
statute, for approval of certain improper distributions to shareholders or
certain loans or guarantees. This provision does not eliminate or limit
liability of an officer for any act or omission as an officer, notwithstanding
that the officer is also a director or that his actions, if negligent or
improper, have been ratified by the Board of Directors. Further, the provision
has no effect on claims under federal or state securities laws and does not
affect the availability of injunctions and other equitable remedies available to
the Company's shareholders for any violation of a director's fiduciary duty to
the Company or its shareholders. Although the validity and scope of the
legislation underlying the provision have not yet been interpreted to any
significant extent by the California courts, the provision may relieve directors
or monetary liability to the Company for grossly negligent conduct, including
conduct in situations involving attempted takeovers of the Company.
The Articles also provide that the Company is authorized to provide
indemnification to its agents (as defined in Section 317 of the California
Corporations Code), through the Company's Bylaws or through agreements with such
agents or both, for breach of duty to the Company and its shareholders, in
excess of the indemnification otherwise permitted by Section 317 of the
California Corporations Code, subject to the limits on such excess
indemnification set forth in Section 204 of the California Corporations Code.
The Bylaws of the Company provide that a person sued as an agent of the Company
may be indemnified by the Company for reasonable expenses incurred thereby, if
(a) in the case of other than derivative suits, such person has acted in good
faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests
of the Company (and in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful), and (b) in the case of a
derivative suit, such person has acted in good faith in a manner he or she
believed to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and
with such care, including reasonable inquiry, as an ordinarily prudent person,
in a like position would use under similar circumstances. The Bylaws further
provide that no indemnification shall be made in the case of a derivative suit
in respect of any claim as to which such person has been adjudged to be liable
to the corporation, except with court approval, nor shall indemnification be
made for amounts paid in settling or otherwise disposing of a threatened or
pending action, with or without court approval, or for expenses incurred in
defending a threatened or pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed
of without court approval. Indemnification under the Bylaws is mandatory in the
case of an agent of the Company (present or past) who is successful on the
merits in defense of a suit against him or her in such capacity. In all other
cases where indemnification is permitted by the Bylaws, a determination to
indemnify such person must be made by a majority of a quorum of disinterested
directors, a majority of disinterested shareholders, or the court in which the
suit is pending.
The Company has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors in addition
to the indemnification provided for in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.
Among other things, these agreements provide that the Company will indemnify,
subject to certain requirements, each of the Company's directors for certain
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts
incurred by such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or
in the right of the Company, on account of services by such person as a director
or officer of the Company, or as a director or officer of any other company or
enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of the Company.
The Underwriting Agreement (Exhibit 1.1 hereto) provides for indemnification by
the Underwriters of the Company and its officers and directors and the Selling
Shareholders, and by the Company and the Selling Shareholders of the
Underwriters, for certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933
or otherwise.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
The Registrant hereby undertakes to provide the Underwriters at the closing
specified in the Underwriting Agreements certificates in such denominations and
registered in such names as required by the Underwriters to permit prompt
delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted as to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has
been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information
omitted from the form of prospectus as filed as part of this Registration
Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed
by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the
Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of
the time it was declared effective, and (2) for the purpose of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that
contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
--------------------------------
THIS INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT, dated this day of ,
between QUALITY SYSTEMS, INC., a California corporation (hereinafter referred
to as the "Company"), and , an employee of the Company, its parent or
one or more of its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as the "Optionee"), is
made with reference to the following facts:
The Company desires, by affording the Optionee an opportunity to purchase
shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value, in the Company (hereinafter called
"Common Stock"), as hereinafter provided, to carry out the purpose of the
Company's 1989 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").
NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto have agreed,
and do hereby agree, as follows:
1. GRANT OF OPTION.
The Company hereby irrevocably grants to the Optionee the right and option
(hereinafter called the "Option") to purchase all or any part of an aggregate
of shares (such number being subject to adjustment as provided in
Paragraph 7 hereof) on the terms and conditions herein set forth. The Option
granted herein is an "incentive option" within the meaning of the Plan and
Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
2. PURCHASE PRICE.
The purchase price of the Common Stock covered by the Option shall be $ per
share, representing percent ( %) of the fair market value of the shares
as determined pursuant to Section 5 of the Plan as of the date hereof. The
purchase price of the Common Stock as to which the Option shall be exercised
shall be paid in full at the time of exercise in cash or by certified check or
by bank draft; or, with the consent of the Company's Board of Directors or
Stock Option Committee for the Plan, (i) by delivery of shares of Common Stock
of the Company already owned by the Optionee which shall be deemed to have a
value per share equal to the fair market value per share of such shares
determined in accordance with Section 5 of the Plan; or (ii) any combination of
cash and shares of Common Stock as permitted by clause (i) of this sentence.
3. TERM OF OPTION.
The term of the Option shall commence on the date hereof and all rights to
purchase Shares hereunder shall cease at 11:59 P.M. on the day before the
anniversary of the date hereof, subject to earlier termination as provided
herein. Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, options granted
hereunder shall become exercisable in cumulative installments as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Date Installments First Percent of Option Shares
Become Exercisable Subject to Installment
----------------------- ------------------------
<S> <C>
</TABLE>
<PAGE> 2
Once an installment of the Option granted hereunder becomes exercisable for the
first time, the shares subject thereto will be purchasable thereafter by the
Optionee at any time in whole, or from time-to-time in part, prior to the
expiration or earlier termination of the Option granted hereunder. Except as
provided in Paragraph 5 hereof, the Option may not be exercised at any time
unless the Optionee shall have been continuously, from the date hereof to the
date of the exercise of the Option, an employee of the Company, its parent, if
any, or of one or more of its subsidiaries or a corporation or a parent or
subsidiary of a corporation issuing or assuming an option to which Section
425(a) of the Code applies. The holder of the Option shall not have any of the
rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares covered by the Option as to
any shares of Common Stock not actually issued and delivered to such holder.
4. NON-TRANSFERABILITY.
The Option shall not be transferable otherwise than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution, and the Option may be exercised, during the lifetime
of the Optionee, only by the Optionee. More particularly (but without limiting
the generality of the foregoing), the Option may not be assigned, transferred
(except as provided in Paragraph 5 hereof), pledged or hypothecated in any way,
shall not be assignable by operation of law and shall not be subject to
execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted assignment, transfer,
pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Option contrary to the
provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process
upon the Option, shall be null and void and without effect.
5. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
(A) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT EXCEPT UPON DEATH OR DISABILITY. In the
event that the Optionee shall cease to be employed by the Company or a parent
or subsidiary corporation of the Company (or a corporation or a parent or
subsidiary corporation of a corporation issuing or assuming an incentive option
to which Section 425(a) of the Code applies), for any reason other than death
or disability (within the meaning of Section 105(d)(4) of the code)
(hereinafter "disability"), this Option shall terminate immediately and become
void and of no effect; provided, however, that the Optionee shall have the
right to exercise this Option, but only with respect to the number of shares
which the Optionee was entitled to purchase under this Agreement immediately
prior to such cessation, at any time within one (1) month after such cessation,
but in no event later than the date of expiration of the option period set
forth in Paragraph 3 above, if the termination of his position as an employee
of the Company or any parent or subsidiary thereof was due to his or her
voluntary resignation or to the termination of such employment by the Company
for cause (which shall be determined in the Company's sole judgment).
Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing sentence, if the Optionee's
employment or position with the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation
is terminated by the Company or the parent or subsidiary without cause, this
Option shall terminate immediately and become void and of no effect; provided,
however, that the Optionee shall have the right to exercise this Option at any
time within three
-2-
<PAGE> 3
(3) months after such termination, but in no event later than the date of
expiration of the option period set forth in Paragraph 3 above, but the
number of shares purchasable upon such exercise of the Option shall not in any
case exceed the number which could have been purchased if the Optionee had
exercised the Option immediately prior to such termination of employment.
(B) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT UPON DEATH OR DISABILITY. In the
event that the Optionee shall cease to be employed by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries by reason of death or disability and shall not have fully
exercised his or her Option granted hereunder, such Option may be exercised,
but only with respect to the number of shares which the Optionee could have
purchased had the Optionee exercised this Option as of the date of his or her
cessation of employment, at any time within twelve (12) months after the
Optionee's cessation of employment as a result of such death or disability, but
in any event no later than the date or expiration of the Option period, by the
Optionee or, in the event of death, by the executors or administrators of the
Optionee's estate or by any person or persons who shall have acquired the
Option directly from the Optionee by bequest or inheritance. At the end of
such twelve (12) month period, the Option, to the extent it remains
unexercised, shall terminate and become void and of no effect.
6. OTHER EXPIRATIONS.
In addition to any other event causing an expiration or termination of this
Option, this Option shall expire and all rights to purchase the Common Stock
shall cease (to the extent not theretofore terminated or expired as herein
provided) upon the effective date of (i) the dissolution or liquidation of the
Company, or (ii) a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or shares,
separation or reorganization of the Company with one or more entities,
corporate or otherwise, as a result of which the Company is not the surviving
entity, or (iii) a "reverse merger" in which the Company is a surviving entity
but more than 50% of its voting shares are converted into cash, property or the
securities of another entity, or (iv) a sale of substantially all of the
property or shares of the Company to another entity, corporate or otherwise;
provided, however, that the Company may, in its discretion, and immediately
prior to any such transaction, cause a new option to be substituted for this
Option or cause this Option to be assumed by an employer entity or a parent or
subsidiary of such entity; and such new option shall apply to all shares issued
in addition to or substitution, replacement or modification of the shares
theretofore covered by such option; provided that,
(a) The excess of the aggregate fair market value of the
shares subject to the option immediately after the substitution or
assumption over the aggregate option price of such shares shall not be
more than the excess of the aggregate fair market value of all shares
subject to the option immediately before such substitution or
assumption over the aggregate option price of such shares, and
-3-
<PAGE> 4
(b) The new option or the assumption of the existing
option shall not give the Optionee additional benefits which he or she
did not have under the old option prior to such assumption, and
(c) An appropriate adjustment of the original option
price shall be made among original shares subject to the option and
any additional shares or shares issued in substitution, replacement or
modification thereof.
If no provision is made for the continuance of the option plan and the
assumption of this Option, or the substitution of new options for this Option
as hereinabove provided, then the Company shall cause written notice to be
given to the Optionee of the proposed transaction not less than thirty (30)
days prior to the anticipated effective date thereof, and at the sole option
and discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, this Option, if not already
fully exercisable, may thereupon become fully exercisable, in which event the
Optionee shall have the right to exercise this Option at any time prior to the
effective date of the proposed transaction. The failure of the Company to give
the written notice specified hereinabove shall not affect the validity, nor
shall it be a basis for delaying or restraining the consummation, of any such
transaction.
7. ADJUSTMENTS.
The number and class of shares subject to this Option, and the purchase price
per share (but not the total purchase price), and the minimum number of shares
as to which this Option may be exercised at any one time, shall all be
proportionately adjusted in the event of any change or increase or decrease in
the number of issued shares of Common Stock in the Company, without receipt of
consideration by the Company, which results from a split-up or consolidation of
shares, payment of a share divided (in excess of two percent), a
recapitalization, a combination of shares or other like capital adjustment, or
a reincorporation of the Company, so that, upon exercise of this Option, the
Optionee shall receive the number and class of shares he would have received
had he been the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock in the Company,
for which this Option is being exercised, on the date of such change or
increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock in the
Company. Subject to any required action by its shareholders, if the Company
shall be a surviving entity in any reorganization, merger or consolidation
(other than in a "reverse merger" in which more than 50% of the Company's
voting shares are converted into cash, property or the securities of another
entity), this Option shall be proportionately adjusted so as to apply to the
securities to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock in the
Company subject to this Option would have been entitled. Adjustments under
this paragraph shall be made by the Board of Directors whose determination with
respect thereto shall be final and conclusive. No fractional share shall be
issued under this Option or upon any such adjustment.
-4-
<PAGE> 5
8. METHOD OF EXERCISING OPTION.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Option Agreement, this Option may
be exercised by written notice to the Company, at its administrative office in
the State of California, which presently is located at 17822 East 17th Street,
Suite 210, Tustin, California 92680. Such notice shall state the election to
exercise the Option and the number of shares in respect of which it is being
exercised and shall be signed by the person so exercising the Option. Such
notice shall be accompanied by payment in cash, certified check or bank draft
in the amount of, or with the prior consent of the Board of Directors or the
Stock Option Committee, certificates for shares of Common Stock of the Company
having an aggregate fair market value (determined in the manner provided in
Section 5 of the Plan) equal to, the full purchase price of such shares, and
the Company shall deliver a certificate or certificates representing the shares
subject to such exercise as soon as practicable after the notice shall be
received. The certificate or certificates for the shares as to which the Option
shall have been so exercised shall be registered in the name of the person or
persons so exercising the Option and shall be delivered as provided above to or
upon the written order of the person or persons exercising the Option. In the
event the Option shall be exercised by any person or persons other than the
Optionee in accordance with the terms hereof, such notice shall be accompanied
by appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the
Option. All shares that shall be purchased upon the exercise of the Option as
provided herein shall be fully paid and non-assessable. The holder of this
Option shall not be entitled to the privileges of share ownership as to any
shares of Common Stock not actually issued and delivered to him.
9. GENERAL.
(a) The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option
reserve and keep available such number of shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this Option Agreement, shall pay all
original issue and transfer taxes with respect to the issue and transfer of
shares pursuant hereto and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by
the Company in connection therewith, and will from time to time use its best
efforts to comply with all laws and regulations, which, in the opinion of
counsel for the company, shall be applicable thereto.
(b) The granting of the Option hereunder shall not impose any
obligation on the Company to continue the employment of the Optionee; nor shall
it impose any obligation on the Optionee to exercise this Option.
(c) This Agreement embodies the entire agreement of the parties,
and supersedes any and all other prior or contemporaneous agreements, whether
written or oral, between the parties hereto, with respect to the subject matter
hereof.
(d) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of California.
-5-
<PAGE> 6
(e) The Company may require, as a condition precedent to the
Company's obligation to sell and issue, and the Optionee's right to purchase,
shares of common stock of the Company on exercise of this Option, that the
Optionee shall certify, in writing, that he or she is acquiring such shares for
investment and not with a view or the intent to sell or redistribute such
shares.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Option Agreement to be duly
executed by its officers thereunto duly authorized, and the Optionee has
hereunto set his or her hand, all as of the day and year first above written.

NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
-----------------------------------
THIS NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT, dated this day of ,
between QUALITY SYSTEMS, INC., a California corporation (hereinafter referred
to as the "Company"), and , an employee or non-employee director of the
Company, its parent or one or more of its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to
as the "Optionee"), is made with reference to the following facts:
The Company desires, by affording the Optionee an opportunity to purchase
shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value, in the Company (hereinafter called
"Common Stock"), as hereinafter provided, to carry out the purpose of the
Company's 1989 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").
NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto have agreed,
and do hereby agree, as follows:
1. GRANT OF OPTION.
The Company hereby irrevocably grants to the Optionee the right and option
(hereinafter called the "Option") to purchase all or any part of an aggregate
of shares (such number being subject to adjustment as provided in
Paragraph 7 hereof) on the terms and conditions herein set forth.
2. PURCHASE PRICE.
The purchase price of the Common Stock covered by the Option shall be $ per
share, representing percent ( %) of the fair market value of the shares
as determined pursuant to Section 5 of the Plan as of the date hereof. The
purchase price of the Common Stock as to which the Option shall be exercised
shall be paid in full at the time of exercise in cash or by certified check or
by bank draft; or, with the consent of the Company's Board of Directors or
Stock Option Committee for the Plan, (i) by delivery of shares of Common Stock
of the Company already owned by the Optionee which shall be deemed to have a
value per share equal to the fair market value per share of such shares
determined in accordance with Section 5 of the Plan, or (ii) any combination of
cash and shares of Common Stock as permitted by clause (i) of this sentence.
3. TERM OF OPTION.
The term of the Option shall commence on the date hereof and all rights to
purchase Shares hereunder shall cease at 11:59 P.M. on the day before the
anniversary of the date hereof, subject to earlier termination as provided
herein. Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, options granted
hereunder shall become exercisable in cumulative installments as follows:

Date Installments First Percent of Option Shares
Become Exercisable Subject to Installment
----------------------- ------------------------
<S> <C>
</TABLE>
<PAGE> 2
Once an installment of the Option granted hereunder becomes exercisable for the
first time, the shares subject thereto will be purchasable thereafter by the
Optionee at any time in whole or from time-to-time in part prior to the
expiration or earlier termination of the Option. Except as provided in
Paragraph 5 hereof, the Option may not be exercised at any time unless the
Optionee shall have been continuously, from the date hereof to the date of the
exercise of the Option, an employee or non-employee director of the Company,
its parent, if any, or of one or more of its subsidiaries or a corporation or a
parent or subsidiary of a corporation issuing or assuming an option to which
Section 425(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
applies. The holder of the Option shall not have any of the rights of a
shareholder with respect to the shares covered by the Option as to any shares
of Common Stock not actually issued and delivered to such holder.
4. NON-TRANSFERABILITY.
The Option shall not be transferable otherwise than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution, and the Option may be exercised, during the lifetime
of the Optionee, only by the Optionee. More particularly (but without limiting
the generality of the foregoing), the Option may not be assigned, transferred
(except as provided in Paragraph 5 hereof), pledged or hypothecated in any way,
shall not be assignable by operation of law and shall not be subject to
execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted assignment, transfer,
pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Option contrary to the
provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process
upon the Option, shall be null and void and without effect.
5. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
(A) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT EXCEPT UPON DEATH OR DISABILITY. In
the event that the Optionee shall cease to be employed by, or cease to be a
director of, the Company or a parent or subsidiary corporation of the Company
(or a corporation or a parent or subsidiary corporation of a corporation
issuing or assuming an incentive option to which Section 425(a) of the Code
applies), for any reason other than death or disability (within the meaning of
Section 105(d)(4) of the code) (hereinafter "disability"), this Option shall
terminate immediately and become void and of no effect; provided, however, that
the Optionee shall have the right to exercise this Option, but only with
respect to the number of shares which the Optionee was entitled to purchase
under this Agreement immediately prior to such cessation, at any time within
one (1) month after such cessation, but in no event later than the date of
expiration of the option period set forth in Paragraph 3 above, if the
termination of the Optionee's position as an employee or director, as the case
may be, was due to his or her voluntary resignation or to termination by the
Company for cause (as determined in the sole judgment of the Company).
Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing sentence, if the Optionee's
employment or position with the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation
is terminated by the Company or the parent or subsidiary without cause, this
Option shall terminate immediately and become void and of no effect; provided,
however, that the Optionee shall have the right to exercise
-2-
<PAGE> 3
this Option at any time within three (3) months after such termination,
but in no event later than the date of expiration of the option period set
forth in Paragraph 3 above, but the number of shares purchasable upon such
exercise of the Option shall not in any case exceed the number which could have
been purchased if the Optionee had exercised the Option immediately prior to
such termination.
(B) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT UPON DEATH OR DISABILITY. In the
event that the Optionee shall cease to be employed by, or to be a director of,
the Company or any of its subsidiaries by reason of death or disability and
shall not have fully exercised his or her Option granted hereunder, such Option
may be exercised, but only with respect to the number of shares which the
Optionee could have purchased had the Optionee exercised this Option as of the
date of his or her cessation of employment or his position as a director (as
the case may be), at any time within twelve (12) months after the Optionee's
cessation of employment or as a director as a result of such death or
disability, but in any event no later than the date or expiration of the Option
period, by the Optionee or, in the event of death, by the executors or
administrators of the Optionee's estate or by any person or persons who shall
have acquired the Option directly from the Optionee by bequest or inheritance.
At the end of such twelve (12) month period, the Option, to the extent it
remains unexercised, shall terminate and become void and of no effect.
6. OTHER EXPIRATIONS.
In addition to any other event causing an expiration or termination of this
Option, this Option shall expire and all rights to purchase the Common Stock
shall cease (to the extent not theretofore terminated or expired as herein
provided) upon the effective date of (i) the dissolution or liquidation of the
Company, or (ii) a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or shares,
separation or reorganization of the Company with one or more entities,
corporate or otherwise, as a result of which the Company is not the surviving
entity, or (iii) a "reverse merger" in which the Company is a surviving entity
but more than 50% of its voting shares are converted into cash, property or the
securities of another entity, or (iv) a sale of substantially all of the
property or shares of the Company to another entity, corporate or otherwise;
provided, however, that the Company may, in its discretion, and immediately
prior to any such transaction, cause a new option to be substituted for this
Option or cause this Option to be assumed by an employer entity or a parent or
subsidiary of such entity; and such new option shall apply to all shares issued
in addition to or substitution, replacement or modification of the shares
theretofore covered by such option; provided that,
(a) The excess of the aggregate fair market value of the
shares subject to the option immediately after the substitution or
assumption over the aggregate option price of such shares shall not be
more than the excess of the aggregate fair market value of all shares
subject to the option immediately before such substitution or
assumption over the aggregate option price of such shares, and
-3-
<PAGE> 4
(b) The new option or the assumption of the existing
option shall not give the Optionee additional benefits which he or she
did not have under the old option prior to such assumption, and
(c) An appropriate adjustment of the original option
price shall be made among original shares subject to the option and
any additional shares or shares issued in substitution, replacement or
modification thereof.
If no provision is made for the continuance of the Option Plan and the
assumption of this Option, or the substitution of new options for this Option
as hereinabove provided, then the Company shall cause written notice to be
given to the Optionee of the proposed transaction not less than thirty (30)
days prior to the anticipated effective date thereof, and at the sole option
and discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, this Option, if not already
fully exercisable, may thereupon become immediately and fully exercisable, in
which event the Optionee shall have the right to exercise this Option at any
time prior to the effective date of the proposed transaction. The failure of
the Company to give the written notice specified hereinabove shall not affect
the validity, nor shall it be a basis for delaying or restraining the
consummation, of any such transaction.
7. ADJUSTMENTS.
The number and class of shares subject to this Option, and the purchase price
per share (but not the total purchase price), and the minimum number of shares
as to which this Option may be exercised at any one time, shall all be
proportionately adjusted in the event of any change or increase or decrease in
the number of issued shares of Common Stock in the Company, without receipt of
consideration by the Company, which results from a split-up or consolidation of
shares, payment of a share divided (in excess of two percent), a
recapitalization, a combination of shares or other like capital adjustment, or
a reincorporation of the Company, so that, upon exercise of this Option, the
Optionee shall receive the number and class of shares he or she would have
received had he or she been the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock
in the Company, for which this Option is being exercised, on the date of such
change or increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock
in the Company. Subject to any required action by its shareholders, if the
Company shall be a surviving entity in any reorganization, merger or
consolidation (other than in a "reverse merger" in which more than 50% of the
Company's voting shares are converted into cash, property or the securities of
another entity), this Option shall be proportionately adjusted so as to apply
to the securities or other rights or property to which the holder of the number
of shares of Common Stock in the Company subject to this Option would have been
entitled. Adjustments under this paragraph shall be made by the Board of
Directors whose determination with respect thereto shall be final and
conclusive. No fractional share shall be issued under this Option or upon any
such adjustment.
-4-
<PAGE> 5
8. METHOD OF EXERCISING OPTION.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Option Agreement, this Option may
be exercised by written notice to the Company, at its administrative office in
the State of California, which presently is located at 17822 East 17th Street,
Suite 210, Tustin, California 92680. Such notice shall state the election to
exercise the Option and the number of shares in respect of which it is being
exercised and shall be signed by the person or persons so exercising the
Option. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in cash, certified check or
bank draft in the amount of, or with the prior consent of the Board of
Directors or the Stock Option Committee, certificates for shares of Common
Stock of the Company having an aggregate fair market value (determined in
accordance with Section 5 of the Plan) equal to, the full purchase price of
such shares, and the Company shall deliver a certificate or certificates
representing the shares subject to such exercise as soon as practicable after
the notice shall be received. The certificate or certificates for the shares as
to which the Option shall have been so exercised shall be registered in the
name of the person or persons so exercising the Option and shall be delivered
as provided above to or upon the written order of the person or persons
exercising the Option. In the event the Option shall be exercised by any person
or persons other than the Optionee in accordance with the terms hereof, such
notice shall be accompanied by appropriate proof of the right of such person or
persons to exercise the Option. All shares that shall be purchased upon the
exercise of the Option as provided herein shall be fully paid and
non-assessable. The holder of this Option shall not be entitled to the
privileges of share ownership as to any shares of Common Stock not actually
issued and delivered to him or her.
9. GENERAL.
(a) The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option
reserve and keep available such number of shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this Option Agreement, shall pay all
original issue and transfer taxes with respect to the issue and transfer of
shares pursuant hereto and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by
the Company in connection therewith, and will from time to time use its best
efforts to comply with all laws and regulations, which, in the opinion of
counsel for the company, shall be applicable thereto.
(b) The granting of the Option hereunder shall not impose any
obligation on the Company to continue the employment or directorship of the
Optionee; nor shall it impose any obligation on the Optionee to exercise this
Option.
(c) This Agreement embodies the entire agreement of the parties,
and supersedes any and all other prior or contemporaneous agreements, whether
written or oral, between the parties hereto, with respect to the subject matter
hereof.
(d) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of California.
-5-
<PAGE> 6
(e) The Company may require, as a condition precedent to the
Company's obligation to sell and issue, and the Optionee's right to purchase,
shares of common stock of the Company on exercise of this Option, that the
Optionee shall certify, in writing, that he or she is acquiring such shares for
investment and not with a view or the intent to sell or redistribute such
shares.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Option Agreement to be duly
executed by its officers thereunto duly authorized, and the Optionee has
hereunto set his or her hand, all as of the day and year first above written.

EXHIBIT 10.10
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
THIS INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made as of this day
of , by and between QUALITY SYSTEMS, INC., a California corporation
(the "Company"), and ("Indemnitee").
WHEREAS, the Company and Indemnitee recognize the increasing
difficulty in obtaining directors' and officers' liability insurance, the
significant increases in the cost of such insurance and the general reductions
in the coverage of such insurance;
WHEREAS, the Company and Indemnitee further recognize the substantial
increase in corporate litigation in general, subjecting officers and directors
to expensive litigation risks at the same time as the availability and
coverage of liability insurance has been severely limited;
WHEREAS, Indemnitee does not regard the current protection available
as adequate under the present circumstances, and Indemnitee and other officers
and directors of the Company may not be willing to continue to serve as
officers and directors without additional protection; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to attract and retain the services of
highly qualified individuals, such as Indemnitee, to serve as officers and
directors of the Company, and to indemnify such officers and directors so as to
provide them with the maximum protection permitted by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and Indemnitee hereby agree as follows:
1. Indemnification.
(a) Third Party Proceedings. The Company shall indemnify
Indemnitee if Indemnitee is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the
right of the Company) by reason of (i) the fact that Indemnitee is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any subsidiary of the
Company, or (ii) any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while an
officer or
-1-
<PAGE> 2
director, or (iii) the fact that Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of
the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses
(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
(if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in
connection with such action or proceeding, if Indemnitee acted in good faith
and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the best interests of
the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee's conduct was unlawful. The termination
of any action or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon
a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which
Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company, or,
with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe that Indemnitee's conduct was unlawful.
(b) Proceedings By or in the Right of the Company. The
Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
proceeding by or in the right of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company
to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of (i) the fact that Indemnitee is
or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any subsidiary
of the Company, or (ii) any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while
an officer or director, or (iii) the fact that Indemnitee is or was serving at
the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) and, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, amounts paid in settlement, in each case to the extent actually and
reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense or settlement
of such action or proceeding, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner
Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company and
its shareholders, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of
any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to
be liable to the Company in the performance of Indemnitee's duty to the Company
and its shareholders unless and only to the extent that the court in which such
action or proceeding is or was pending shall determine upon application that,
in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for expenses and then only to the extent that
the court shall determine.
-2-
<PAGE> 3
2. Agreement to Serve. In consideration of the protection
afforded by this Agreement, if Indemnitee is a director of the Company, he
agrees to serve at least for the balance of the current term as a director and
not to resign voluntarily during such period without the written consent or
approval of a majority of the Board of Directors. If Indemnitee is an officer
of the Company not serving under an employment contract, he agrees to serve in
such capacity at least for the balance of the current fiscal year of the
Company and not to resign voluntarily during such period without the written
consent or approval of a majority of the Board of Directors. Following the
applicable period set forth above, Indemnitee agrees to continue to serve in
such capacity at the will of the Company (or under separate agreement, if such
agreement exists) so long as he is duly appointed or elected and qualified in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bylaws of the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company or until such time as he tenders his resignation in
writing. This Agreement is not intended to create, and shall not create, in
Indemnitee any right to continued employment.
3. Expenses; Indemnification Procedure.
(a) Advancement of Expenses. The Company shall advance
all expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the investigation,
defense, settlement or appeal of any civil or criminal action or proceeding
referenced in Section 1(a) or (b) hereof (but not amounts actually paid in
settlement of any such action or proceeding). Indemnitee hereby undertakes to
repay such amounts advanced only if, and to the extent that, it shall
ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Company as authorized hereby. The advances to be made hereunder shall be
paid by the Company to Indemnitee within twenty (20) days following delivery of
a written request therefor by Indemnitee to the Company.
(b) Notice/Cooperation by Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall,
as a condition precedent to his right to be indemnified under this Agreement,
give the Company notice in writing as soon as practicable of any claim made
against Indemnitee for which indemnification will or could be sought under this
Agreement. Notice to the Company shall be directed to the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company at the address shown on the signature page of this
Agreement (or such other address as the Company shall designate in writing to
Indemnitee). Notice shall be deemed received three business days after the
date postmarked if sent by certified or registered mail, properly addressed;
otherwise notice shall be deemed received when such notice shall actually be
received by the Company. In addition, Indemnitee shall give the Company such
information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be within
Indemnitee's power.
-3-
<PAGE> 4
(c) Procedure. Any indemnification provided for in
Section 1 shall be made no later than forty-five (45) days after receipt of the
written request of Indemnitee. If a claim under this Agreement, under any
statute, or under any provision of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or
Bylaws providing for indemnification, is not paid in full by the Company within
forty-five (45) days after a written request for payment thereof has first
been received by the Company, Indemnitee may, but need not, at any time
thereafter bring an action against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of
the claim and, subject to Section 14 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall also
be entitled to be paid for the expenses (including attorneys' fees) of bringing
such action. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action
brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in connection with any action
or proceeding in advance of its final disposition) that Indemnitee has not met
the standards of conduct which make it permissible under applicable law for the
Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed, but the burden of
proving such defense shall be on the Company, and Indemnitee shall be entitled
to receive interim payments of expenses pursuant to Section 3(a) unless and
until such defense may be finally adjudicated by court order or judgment from
which no further right of appeal exists. It is the parties' intention that if
the Company contests Indemnitee's right to indemnification, the question of
Indemnitee's right to indemnification shall be for the court to decide, and
neither the failure of the Company (including its Board of Directors, any
committee or subgroup of the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or
its shareholders) to have made a determination that indemnification of
Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the
applicable standard of conduct required by applicable law, nor an actual
determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors, any committee
or subgroup of the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its
shareholders) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct,
shall create a presumption that Indemnitee has or has not met the applicable
standard of conduct.
(d) Notice to Insurers. If, at the time of the receipt
of a notice of a claim pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof, the Company has
director and/or officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give
prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in
accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The
Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such
insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result
of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
(e) Selection of Counsel. In the event the Company shall
be obligated under Section 3(a) hereof to pay the expenses of any proceeding
against Indemnitee, the Company, if
-4-
<PAGE> 5
appropriate, shall be entitled to assume the defense of such proceeding, with
counsel approved by Indemnitee, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of its election so
to do. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee
and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be
liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently
incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same proceeding, provided that (i)
Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his or her counsel in any such
proceeding at Indemnitee's expense; and (ii) if (A) the employment of counsel
by Indemnitee has been previously authorized by the Company, (B) Indemnitee
shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest
between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense or (C)
the Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume the defense of
such proceeding, then the fees and expenses of Indemnitee's counsel shall be at
the expense of the Company.
4. Additional Indemnification Rights; Non-Exclusivity.
(a) Scope. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Indemnitee to the fullest
extent permitted by law, notwithstanding that such indemnification is not
specifically authorized by the other provisions of this Agreement, the
Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Company's Bylaws or by statute. In
the event of any change, after the date of this Agreement, in any applicable
law, statute or rule which expands the right of a California corporation to
indemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, such changes shall
be, ipso facto, within the purview of Indemnitee's rights and Company's
obligations, under this Agreement. In the event of any change in applicable
law, statute or rule which narrows the right of a California corporation to
indemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, such changes, to
the extent not otherwise required by such law, statute or rule to be applied to
this Agreement shall have no effect on this Agreement or the parties' rights
and obligations hereunder.
(b) Non-Exclusivity. The indemnification provided by
this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any right to which Indemnitee
may be entitled under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, its Bylaws, any
agreement, any vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, the General
Corporation Law of the State of California, or otherwise, both as to action in
Indemnitee's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while
holding such office. The indemnification provided under this Agreement shall
continue as to Indemnitee for any action taken or not taken while serving in an
indemnified capacity even though he or she is not serving in such capacity or
in any capacity with the Company at the time of any action or other covered
proceeding.
-5-
<PAGE> 6
5. Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any
provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a
portion of the expenses, judgments, fines or penalties actually or reasonably
incurred by him in the investigation, defense, appeal or settlement of any
civil or criminal action or proceeding, but not, however, for the total amount
thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of
such expenses, judgments, fines or penalties to which Indemnitee is entitled.
6. Mutual Acknowledgment. Both the Company and Indemnitee
acknowledge that in certain instances, Federal law or applicable public policy
may prohibit the Company from indemnifying its directors and officers under
this Agreement or otherwise. Indemnitee understands and acknowledges that the
Company has undertaken or may be required in the future to undertake with the
Securities and Exchange Commission to submit the question of indemnification to
a court in certain circumstances for a determination of the Company's right
under public policy to indemnify Indemnitee and, in that event, the
Indemnitee's rights and the Company's obligations hereunder shall be subject to
that determination.
7. Directors' and Officers' Liability Insurance. The Company
shall, from time to time, make a good faith determination whether or not it is
practicable for the Company to obtain and maintain a policy or policies of
insurance with reputable insurance companies providing the officers and
directors of the Company with coverage for losses from wrongful acts, or to
ensure the Company's performance of its indemnification obligations under this
Agreement. Among other considerations, the Company will weigh the costs of
obtaining such insurance coverage against the protection afforded by such
coverage. In all policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance,
Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide
Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably
insured of the Company's directors, if Indemnitee is a director; or of the
Company's officers, if Indemnitee is not a director of the Company but is an
officer; or of the Company's key employees, if Indemnitee is not an officer or
director but is a key employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall have no obligation to obtain or maintain such insurance if the Company
determines in good faith that such insurance is not reasonably available, or
that the premium costs for such insurance are disproportionate to the amount of
coverage provided, or that the coverage provided by such insurance is limited
by exclusions so as to provide an insufficient benefit, or if Indemnitee is
covered by similar insurance maintained by a subsidiary or parent of the
Company.
-6-
<PAGE> 7
8. Severability. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to
require or shall be construed as requiring the Company to do or fail
to do any act in violation of applicable law. The Company's
inability, pursuant to court order, to perform its obligations under
this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. The
provisions of this Agreement shall be severable as provided in this
Section 8. If this Agreement or any portion hereof shall be
invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then
the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee to the full extent
permitted by any applicable portion of this Agreement that shall not
have been invalidated, and the balance of this Agreement not so
invalidated shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
9. Exceptions. Any other provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement:
(a) Excluded Acts. To indemnify Indemnitee for any acts
or omissions or transactions for which a director may not be relieved of
liability under the California General Corporation Law or the Federal
Securities Laws; or
(b) Claims Initiated by Indemnitee. To indemnify or
advance expenses to Indemnitee with respect to proceedings or claims initiated
or brought voluntarily by Indemnitee and not by way of defense, except with
respect to proceedings brought to establish or enforce a right to
indemnification under this Agreement or any other statute or law or otherwise
as required under Section 317 of the California General Corporation Law, but
such indemnification or advancement of expenses may be provided by the Company
in specific cases if the Board of Directors has approved the initiation or
bringing of such suit; or
(c) Lack of Good Faith. To indemnify Indemnitee for any
expenses incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to any proceeding instituted
by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, if a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by the
Indemnitee in such proceeding was not made in good faith or was frivolous; or

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any similar successor statute.
10. Effectiveness of Agreement. To the extent that the
indemnification permitted under the terms of certain provisions of this
Agreement exceeds the scope of the indemnification provided for in the
California General Corporation Law, such provisions shall not be effective
unless and until the Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize such
additional rights of indemnification. In all other respects, the balance of
this Agreement shall be effective as of the date set forth on the first page
and may apply to acts or omissions of Indemnitee which occurred prior to such
date if Indemnitee was an officer, director, employee or other agent of the

employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, at the time such act or omission occurred.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement, references to the
"Company" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any
constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed
in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued,
would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers,
employees or agents, so that if Indemnitee is or was a director, officer,
employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, Indemnitee shall stand in the same position under the provisions of
this Agreement with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as
Indemnitee would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its
separate existence had continued.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, references to "other
enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references to "fines" shall
include any excise taxes assessed on Indemnitee with respect to an employee
benefit plan; and' references to "serving at the request of the Company" shall
include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company
which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer,
employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants,
or beneficiaries.

counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original.

by Indemnitee under this Agreement to enforce or interpret any of the terms
hereof, Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid all court costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Indemnitee with respect to
such action, unless as a part of such action, the court of competent
jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee
as a basis for such action were not made in good faith or were frivolous. In
the event of an action instituted by or in the name of the Company under this
Agreement or to enforce or interpret any of the terms of this Agreement,
Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid all court costs and expenses, including
attorneys' fees, incurred by Indemnitee in defense of such action (including
with respect to Indemnitee's counterclaims and cross-claims made in such
action), unless as a part of such action the court determines that each of
Indemnitee's material defenses to such action were made in bad faith or were
frivolous.
15. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other
communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed
duly given (i) if delivered by hand and receipted for by the party addressee,
on the date of such receipt, or (ii) if mailed by certified or registered mail
with postage prepaid, on the third business day after the date postmarked.

Agreement, or as subsequently modified by written notice.
16. Consent to Jurisdiction. The Company and Indemnitee each
hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of
California for all purposes in connection with any action or proceeding which
arises out of or relates to this Agreement and agree that any action instituted
under this Agreement shall be brought only in the state courts of the State of
