STATEMENTS" UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT (THE "REFORM
ACT"). SEE "RISK FACTORS -- FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS."
THE COMPANY
Paracelsus is a leading healthcare company that owns and operates acute care
and specialty hospitals and related healthcare businesses serving selected
markets in the United States. Paracelsus currently owns and operates 18 acute
care hospitals with a total of 1,685 licensed beds in California, Utah,
Tennessee, Texas, Florida, Georgia and Mississippi. Paracelsus' acute care
hospitals provide a broad array of general medical and surgical services on an
inpatient, outpatient and emergency basis. In addition, certain hospitals and
their related facilities offer rehabilitative medicine, substance abuse
treatment, psychiatric care and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome ("AIDS")
care. In California, Paracelsus also owns and operates three psychiatric
hospitals with 218 licensed beds, four skilled nursing facilities with 232
licensed beds and a 60-bed rehabilitative hospital. In addition, Paracelsus owns
and operates 11 home health agencies and 16 medical office buildings adjacent to
certain of its hospitals. For the 12 months ended March 31, 1996 on a pro forma
basis after giving effect to acquisitions and dispositions, Paracelsus would
have had total operating revenues of $516.9 million, Adjusted EBITDA (as defined
below) of $55.8 million and a net loss of $3.1 million. The net loss includes an
unusual charge recorded in March 1996 of $22.4 million related to the settlement
of two lawsuits ($13.2 million, net of income tax benefit).
On April 12, 1996, Paracelsus entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger,
as amended and restated on May 29, 1996 (the "Merger Agreement"), with Champion
pursuant to which Champion will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Champion currently owns and operates five acute care hospitals with a total of
722 licensed beds in Utah, Texas and Virginia and owns a 50% interest in, and
operates, a partnership that owns two additional acute care hospitals with a
total of 341 licensed beds in North Dakota under the name "Dakota Heartland
Health System" ("DHHS"). Champion's acute care hospitals generally offer the
same types of services provided by Paracelsus' acute care hospitals. Champion
also owns and operates two psychiatric hospitals with a total of 219 licensed
beds in Missouri and Louisiana. For the 12 months ended March 31, 1996 on a pro
forma basis after giving effect to acquisitions and dispositions, Champion would
have had net revenue of $198.2 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $32.2 million and net
income of $3.9 million.
Following the Merger, the Company will operate 31 hospitals in 11 states,
including 25 acute care hospitals with 2,748 licensed beds, five psychiatric
hospitals with 437 licensed beds and a rehabilitative hospital with 60 licensed
beds. On a pro forma combined basis for the 12 months ended March 31, 1996,
after giving effect to the Offerings, the Company would have had total operating
revenues of $714.8 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $88.1 million and a net loss of
$6.7 million. The net loss includes the unusual charge related to the settlement
of two lawsuits. These pro forma combined results do not give effect to any cost
savings that management believes will be realized as a result of the Merger due
to the combination of the corporate operations of Paracelsus and Champion and
the elimination of certain corporate consulting contracts of Paracelsus. In
addition, the combined entity should benefit
3
<PAGE>
from economies of scale in such areas as purchasing, marketing, information
systems, risk management, acquisitions and development, accounting,
reimbursement, corporate finance and quality assurance.
The Company believes that the Merger represents a unique opportunity to
integrate the operations of two companies that have a complementary portfolio of
hospitals. Upon completion of the Merger, 22 of the 31 hospitals owned or
operated by the Company will be located in markets where a hospital or hospital
network operated by the Company is a preeminent provider. On a pro forma
combined basis (excluding the PHC Salt Lake Hospital (as defined below) and the
two hospitals owned by DHHS), the remaining 19 hospitals would have accounted
for approximately 71% and 89% of the 28 remaining hospitals' operating revenues
and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, for the 12 months ended March 31, 1996.
Following the Merger, the Company believes that it will be better positioned
to implement its business strategy due to its greater scale and diversity of
operations, expanded geographic presence and enhanced access to the public
capital markets and other financing sources. The Company also believes that it
will benefit from the addition to Paracelsus' management team of three key
Champion executives who, following the Merger, will have primary responsibility
for day to day management of the Company. These Champion executives have an
average of 29 years of hospital industry experience and a proven track record in
operating and growing publicly held hospital companies. Over the past five
years, these executives grew Champion's net revenue at a compounded annual
growth rate of 62.0%, from $24.3 million in 1991 to $167.5 million in 1995,
while improving its Adjusted EBITDA margins from 9.4% in 1991 to 15.8% in 1995
and 19.2% for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
After the Merger, the Company's principal executive offices will be located
at 515 West Greens Road, Suite 800, Houston, Texas 77067. Its telephone number
will be (713) 873-6623.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company's strategic objective is to establish each of its hospitals or
hospital networks as the provider of choice in its market. To accomplish this,
the Company first seeks to establish a presence in geographic locations that are
best suited to developing a preeminent market position. These locations
primarily include small to mid-sized markets with more favorable demographics
and lower levels of penetration by managed care plans and alternative niche
competitors than larger metropolitan areas. Moreover, the competing hospitals in
the Company's target markets frequently will be not-for-profit facilities that
the Company believes have higher cost structures than its hospitals. Second, the
Company focuses on implementing operating strategies developed by the Company
for positioning each of its hospitals or hospital networks as providers of
measurably higher quality and lower cost healthcare services than competing
providers. The key elements of the Company's operating strategies are as
follows:
EXPAND STRATEGICALLY THROUGH SELECTED ACQUISITIONS
The Company plans to continue to pursue expansion opportunities through the
strategic acquisition of hospitals and complementary healthcare businesses in
existing or new markets. The Company has demonstrated this strategy most
recently by successfully acquiring four hospitals and a home health agency in
the Salt Lake City market. The Company believes that its primary sources of
acquisitions will be unaffiliated not-for-profit hospitals and facilities being
divested by hospital systems for strategic, regulatory or performance reasons.
INCREASE MARKET PENETRATION
The Company seeks to increase the market penetration of its hospitals by
offering a full range of hospital and related healthcare services and by gaining
market share from local competitors by providing measurably higher quality and
lower cost services. For example, this strategy has been successfully
demonstrated by the addition of obstetrics programs at each of The Medical
Center of
4
<PAGE>
Mesquite and Westwood Medical Center during the past 12 months. In addition,
over the past 24 months the Company has acquired or established five home health
agencies that cover 26 counties in Tennessee, providing a large referral base
for the Company's four hospitals in that market.
ESTABLISH A COMPETITIVE COST ADVANTAGE
The Company seeks to position each of its hospitals as the low cost provider
in its market by monitoring and controlling fixed and variable operating
expenses. Champion's executives have demonstrated an ability to reduce costs as
indicated by the improvement in Champion's Adjusted EBITDA margins from 9.4% in
1991 to 15.8% in 1995 and 19.2% for the three months ended March 31, 1996. Labor
costs are a primary focus of such efforts, and Champion's executives have
reduced salaries, wages and benefits as a percentage of net revenue at
Champion's hospitals (including DHHS) from 38.2% in 1994 to 37.9% in 1995 and
35.4% for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The Company believes that a low
cost provider is better able to succeed in the current healthcare environment by
aggressively pricing its managed care contracts and direct employer arrangements
and by maintaining profitability under fixed payment systems.
IMPLEMENT A COMPETITIVE QUALITY ADVANTAGE
The Company believes that preventing errors in the treatment process can
improve quality and lower the cost of care by reducing the risk of adverse
events to patients and the consequential costs of such events. For the past two
years, the Company has piloted a proprietary program in four of its hospitals
designed to identify and measure the incidence of patient treatment errors in
225 separate clinical categories. The Company believes the capability to
quantify data regarding the quality of care in its hospitals will enable the
Company to reduce the cost of care and will enhance the ability of its hospitals
to win and profit from managed care contracts.
DEVELOP A COMPETITIVE SERVICE ADVANTAGE
The Company believes that bureaucratic and impersonalized customer service
is a historical structural deficiency within the hospital industry caused by
service systems, policies and procedures that are designed for the convenience
of physicians and hospitals rather than patients, payors and employers. The
Company is developing a proprietary customer service system that it believes
will differentiate its hospitals and facilities from those of its competitors
and provide a competitive advantage.
REQUIRE LOCAL MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTABILITY
The provision of high quality healthcare services is primarily a local
business, and the Company's business strategy and operating programs emphasize
local management initiative, responsibility and accountability combined with
corporate support and oversight.
REFINANCINGS IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER
The Company has filed a registration statement with respect to $250,000,000
aggregate principal amount of % Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 (the
"Notes") (plus an aggregate of $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes
subject to an underwriters' over-allotment option) that it plans to offer (the
"Notes Offering") concurrently with the offering (the "Equity Offering" and,
together with the Notes Offering, the "Offerings") of the shares of the
Company's common stock, no stated value per share (the "Common Stock"), made
hereby.
The Company currently intends that a portion of the estimated aggregate net
proceeds to the Company from the Offerings of $297.2 million (consisting of
$55.9 million from the Equity Offering and $241.3 million from the Notes
Offering) will be used by Champion to prepay an estimated $159.2 million of
outstanding Champion indebtedness (plus $6.6 million of prepayment premiums) as
of May 31, 1996. The remaining net proceeds to the Company from the Offerings
will be used to reduce outstanding indebtedness under either the existing
Paracelsus credit facility (the "Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility") or the
new credit facility (the "New Credit Facility") that the Company intends to
establish as soon as practicable at or after the effective time of the Merger
(the "Effective
5
<PAGE>
Time"), as applicable. Neither the Equity Offering nor the Notes Offering is
contingent upon the consummation of the other. See "Risk Factors -- Significant
Leverage," "The Merger and Financing" and "Use of Proceeds."
The Company currently intends to refinance as soon as practicable at or
after the Effective Time, through borrowings under the New Credit Facility, all
amounts outstanding under the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility (the "Credit
Facility Refinancing"). The New Credit Facility will provide for borrowings of
up to $400.0 million, of which $104.0 million is expected to be outstanding
after giving effect to the Offerings and the Credit Facility Refinancing and the
application of the net proceeds therefrom.

RISK FACTORS
PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING FACTORS IN
ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION SET FORTH IN THIS PROSPECTUS BEFORE MAKING AN
INVESTMENT IN THE COMMON STOCK OFFERED HEREBY. CERTAIN STATEMENTS UNDER THIS
CAPTION "RISK FACTORS" CONSTITUTE "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" UNDER THE REFORM
ACT. SEE "-- FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS."
COMPETITION
The healthcare industry has been characterized in recent years by increased
competition for patients and quality staff physicians, excess inpatient capacity
at hospitals, a shift from inpatient to outpatient settings and increased
consolidation. The principal factors contributing to these trends are advances
in medical technology, cost-containment efforts by managed care plans, employers
and traditional health insurers, changes in regulations and reimbursement
policies, increases in the number and type of physicians and competing
healthcare providers and changes in physician practice patterns.
The Company's future success will depend, in part, on the ability of the
Company's hospitals to continue to attract quality physicians, to enter into
managed care contracts and to organize and structure integrated healthcare
delivery systems with other healthcare providers and physician practice groups.
Most of the Company's hospitals compete with other hospitals which provide
comparable services. Some of these hospitals may have significantly greater
financial resources than the Company and some offer a wider range of services
than those offered by the Company's hospitals. Some of these hospitals are owned
by governmental agencies that may be supported by Federal and/or state funding
and others by tax-exempt entities supported by endowments and charitable
contributions, which support is not available to the Company's hospitals. The
competitive position of the Company is also affected by the growth of managed
care organizations, including health maintenance organizations ("HMOs"),
preferred provider organizations ("PPOs") and other purchasers of group
healthcare services. Such managed care organizations negotiate with hospitals
and other healthcare providers to obtain discounts from established charges. The
Company's ability to compete for managed care business in the future will
depend, in part, on its ability to operate profitably in a capitated payment or
negotiated price environment. There can be no assurance that the Company's
hospitals will be able, on terms favorable to the Company, to attract quality
physicians to their staffs, to enter into managed care contracts or to organize
and structure integrated healthcare delivery systems for which other healthcare
companies (including those with greater financial resources or a wider range of
services) may be competing.
Payor organizations have changed their payment methodologies and have
increased their monitoring of the utilization of services, which has resulted
in, among other things, a significant shift from inpatient to outpatient care.
This shift from inpatient to outpatient care, which typically results in more
cost effective care, has also resulted in substantial unused inpatient hospital
capacity and a concurrent increase in the utilization of outpatient services and
outpatient revenues. Partially as a result of these changes in the industry,
there has been significant consolidation in the hospital industry over the past
decade and many hospitals have closed, merged with a competitor or reduced their
services. While the Company has added to its outpatient services, there can be
no assurance that such additions will adequately compensate for the shift away
from inpatient services. Although the occupancy rates and facility utilization
for the Company's acute care facilities have remained fairly stable over the
last three fiscal years, a number of the foregoing factors could cause the
Company to experience a decrease in occupancy rates or overall facility
utilization. The Company cannot predict with any degree of certainty the effect
such changes or reforms or further changes or reforms might have on the business
of the Company, and no assurance can be given that such changes or reforms will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.
BUSINESS EXPANSION
The Company's ability to compete successfully for managed care contracts or
to form or participate in integrated healthcare delivery systems may depend
upon, among other things, the Company's
9
<PAGE>
ability to increase the number of its facilities and services offered. Part of
the Company's business strategy is to expand its facilities and services through
the acquisition of hospitals, other healthcare businesses and ancillary
healthcare providers and recruitment of additional physicians. There can be no
assurance that suitable acquisitions, for which other healthcare companies
(including those with greater financial resources than the Company) may be
competing, can be accomplished on terms favorable to the Company or that
financing, if necessary, can be obtained for such acquisitions. See "--
Significant Leverage." In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to operate profitably any hospital facility, business or other
asset it may acquire, effectively integrate the operations of such acquisitions
or otherwise achieve the intended benefits of such acquisitions.
LIMITS ON REIMBURSEMENT
The Company's hospitals are licensed under applicable state law and
certified as providers under the Federal Medicare program and state Medicaid
programs, from which the Company derived in total approximately 58% and 60% of
its combined historical gross operating revenues for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1995, and the six months ended March 31, 1996, respectively. Such
programs are highly regulated and subject to frequent and substantial changes.
In recent years, basic changes in Medicare reimbursement programs have resulted,
and are expected to continue to result, in reduced levels of reimbursement for a
substantial portion of hospital procedures and costs. In addition, further
changes are anticipated that are likely to result in further limitations on
reimbursement levels. There can be no assurance that reimbursement will continue
to be available for those procedures and costs of the Company currently
reimbursed by Medicare and Medicaid. See "Business -- Medicare, Medicaid and
Other Revenue."
In addition, private payors, including managed care payors, increasingly are
demanding discounted fee structures or the assumption by healthcare providers of
all or a portion of the financial risk of delivering healthcare to their members
through prepaid capitation arrangements. Inpatient utilization, admissions and
occupancy rates continue to be negatively affected by payor-required pre-
admission authorization and utilization review and by payor pressure to
substitute less expensive outpatient and alternative healthcare services for
inpatient procedures for less acutely ill patients. See "-- Competition." In
addition, efforts to impose reduced allowances, greater discounts and more
stringent cost controls by government and other payors are expected to continue.
These changes could adversely affect the Company's financial condition and
results of operations. In particular, as the number of patients covered by
managed care payors increases, significant limits on the scope of services
reimbursed and on reimbursement rates and fees could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
EXTENSIVE REGULATION
The healthcare industry is subject to extensive Federal, state and local
regulation relating to licensing, conduct of operations, ownership of
facilities, addition of facilities and services and prices for services. In
particular, Medicare and Medicaid antifraud and abuse amendments codified under
Section 1128B(b) of the Social Security Act (the "Antifraud Amendments")
prohibit certain business practices and relationships that might affect the
provision and cost of healthcare services reimbursable under Medicare and
Medicaid. Sanctions for violating the Antifraud Amendments include criminal
penalties and civil sanctions, including fines and possible exclusion from the
Medicare and Medicaid programs. Pursuant to the Medicare and Medicaid Patient
and Program Protection Act of 1987, the Department of Health and Human Services
("HHS") has issued regulations that describe some of the conduct and business
relationships permissible under the Antifraud Amendments (the "Safe Harbors").
The fact that a given business arrangement does not fall within a Safe Harbor
does not render the arrangement PER SE illegal. Business arrangements of
healthcare service providers that fail to satisfy the applicable Safe Harbor
criteria, however, risk increased scrutiny by enforcement authorities.
The Company has joint ventures with physician investors that are subject to
regulation under the Antifraud Amendments. None of such joint ventures falls
within any of the Safe Harbors. Under the
10
<PAGE>
Company's joint venture arrangements, physician investors are not and will not
be under any obligation to refer or admit their patients, including Medicare or
Medicaid beneficiaries, to receive services at the Company's facilities, nor are
distributions to those physician investors contingent upon or calculated with
reference to referrals by the investors. On the basis thereof, the Company does
not believe the ownership of interests in or receipt of distributions from the
Company's joint ventures would be construed to be knowing and willful payments
to the physician investors to induce them to refer patients in violation of the
Antifraud Amendments. There can be no assurance, however, that government
officials charged with responsibility for enforcing the prohibitions of the
Antifraud Amendments will not assert that one or more of the Company's joint
ventures is in violation of such provisions. To date, none of the Company's
current joint ventures has been reviewed by any governmental authority for
compliance with the Antifraud Amendments. See "Business -- Regulation and Other
Factors -- Other Federal Statutes and Regulations."
In addition, Section 1877 of the Social Security Act was amended effective
January 1, 1995 (such amendments being hereinafter referred to as "Stark II") to
broaden significantly the scope of prohibited physician referrals under the
Medicare and Medicaid programs to providers with which they have financial
arrangements. Many states have adopted or are considering legislative proposals
similar to Stark II, some of which extend beyond the Medicaid program to all
healthcare services. The Company's participation in and development of joint
ventures and other financial arrangements with physicians could be adversely
affected by these amendments and similar state enactments. See "Business --
Regulation and Other Factors -- Other Federal Statutes and Regulations" and "--
State Statutes and Regulations."
Certificates of need ("CONs"), which are issued by certain state
governmental agencies with jurisdiction over healthcare facilities, are at times
required for the construction of new facilities, the expansion of old
facilities, capital expenditures exceeding a prescribed amount, changes in bed
capacity or services and certain other matters. The Company operates facilities
in seven states that require state approval under CON programs. No assurance can
be given that the Company will be able to obtain additional CONs in any
jurisdiction where such CONs are required. See "Business -- Regulation and Other
Factors -- Certificate of Need Requirements."
The Company is unable to predict the future course of Federal, state and
local regulation or legislation, including Medicare and Medicaid statutes and
regulations. Changes in the regulatory framework could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
HEALTHCARE REFORM LEGISLATION
In recent years, an increasing number of legislative initiatives have been
introduced or proposed in Congress and in state legislatures that would effect
major changes in the healthcare system, either nationally or at the state level.
Among the proposals under consideration are price controls on hospitals,
insurance market reforms to increase the availability of group health insurance
to small businesses, requirements that all businesses offer health insurance
coverage to their employees and the creation of a government health insurance
plan or plans that would cover all citizens. There continue to be efforts at the
Federal level to introduce various insurance market reforms, expanded fraud and
abuse and anti-referral legislation and further reductions in Medicare and
Medicaid reimbursement. A broad range of both similar and more comprehensive
healthcare reform initiatives is likely to be considered at the state level. In
an effort to reduce the Federal budget deficit, Congress is considering
reductions to Medicaid spending that could reduce payments to the Company's
hospitals for services provided to Medicaid recipients, including, among others,
payments to teaching hospitals and hospitals providing a disproportionate amount
of care to indigent patients. A reduction in these payments could adversely
affect the Company's total operating revenues and operating margins. It is
uncertain what action Congress or state legislatures may take or if any such
action would become law.
11
<PAGE>
The Company cannot predict whether any of the above proposals or any other
proposals will be adopted, and, if adopted, no assurance can be given that the
implementation of such legislation will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL AND PHYSICIANS
The Company's operations are dependent on the efforts, ability and
experience of its key executive officers. In addition, the Company's continued
growth depends on its ability to attract and retain skilled employees, on the
ability of its officers and key employees to manage growth successfully and on
the Company's ability to attract and retain quality physicians and management
teams at its facilities. Further, since physicians generally control the
majority of hospital admissions, the success of the Company is, in part,
dependent upon the number, specialties and quality of physicians on its
hospitals' medical staffs, most of whom have no long-term contractual
relationship with the Company and may terminate their association with the
Company's hospitals at any time. No assurance can be given that the loss of some
or all of these key executive officers or an inability to attract or retain
sufficient numbers of qualified physicians or hospital management teams will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results
of operations.
CONCENTRATION OF OPERATIONS
Of the 31 hospital facilities to be operated by the Company after
consummation of the Merger, five will be located in the Salt Lake City
metropolitan area. On a pro forma combined basis, excluding the effect of the
Company's acquisition of assets relating to FHP Hospital, a 125-bed acute care
hospital, and its surrounding campus, in Salt Lake City (the "PHC Salt Lake
Hospital"), these hospitals would have accounted for 25% and 34% of the
Company's total hospital operating revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively,
for the 12 months ended March 31, 1996. The Company expects that total hospital
operating revenues and Adjusted EBITDA anticipated to be received by the Company
in connection with the operation of PHC Salt Lake Hospital will further increase
the contribution of the Utah operations to the Company's total hospital
operating revenues and Adjusted EBITDA. See "Business -- Recent Transactions."
The Company's management believes that its strategy of acquiring hospitals in
the Salt Lake City area will enhance its ability to compete for managed care
contracts and organize and structure an integrated healthcare delivery system in
that market, although there can be no assurance that such strategy will be
successful. In addition, the Company has eight hospitals in the Los Angeles
metropolitan area, a competitive and overbedded environment. On a pro forma
combined basis, these hospitals would have accounted for 23% and 9% of the
Company's total hospital operating revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively,
for the 12 months ended March 31, 1996. The Company may be particularly
sensitive to economic, competitive and regulatory conditions in these
metropolitan areas, and the future success of the Company may be substantially
affected by its ability to compete effectively in these markets.
PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER
Following consummation of the Equity Offering, Dr. Manfred George Krukemeyer
("Dr. Krukemeyer") will, through his ownership of Park Hospital GmbH, a German
corporation (the "Paracelsus Shareholder"), beneficially own approximately 54%
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Upon the consummation of the Merger,
the Paracelsus Shareholder will enter into a shareholder agreement (the
"Shareholder Agreement") pursuant to which the Paracelsus Shareholder will
agree, among other things: (i) to certain "standstill" provisions; (ii) to
certain transfer restrictions with respect to the Company's voting securities;
(iii) not to acquire additional voting securities of the Company if, after
giving effect to such acquisition, such shareholder would beneficially own more
than 66 2/3% of the total voting power of the Company, except under certain
circumstances; and (iv) to sell in, tender into and vote in favor of, as the
case may be, certain acquisition proposals involving the Company. The
Shareholder Agreement will also provide the Paracelsus Shareholder with the
right to designate four nominees to the Company's Board of Directors (the
"Board") and a right of first refusal in connection with certain acquisition
proposals for the Company.
12
<PAGE>
Dr. Krukemeyer also has a right of first refusal to acquire the Common Stock of
the four most senior officers of the Company. See "Certain Relationships and
Related Transactions -- Shareholder Agreement" and "-- Right of First Refusal
Agreement."
Given Dr. Krukemeyer's level of beneficial ownership of the Common Stock and
his right to designate four nominees to the Board, Dr. Krukemeyer will have the
ability to influence the policies and affairs of the Company to a greater extent
than other shareholders of the Company. In addition, Dr. Krukemeyer's level of
beneficial ownership, as well as his right of first refusal in connection with
certain acquisition proposals for the Company, could have the effect of delaying
or making more difficult a change of control of the Company.
CERTAIN ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS
Certain provisions of the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation (the "Articles") and the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws
(the "Bylaws") may have the effect of making an unsolicited acquisition of
control of the Company more difficult or expensive. Furthermore, it is
anticipated that prior to the Effective Time, the Board will adopt a Shareholder
Protection Rights Agreement (the "Rights Agreement"), which could have the
effect of making an unsolicited acquisition of the Company more difficult or
more expensive. Dr. Krukemeyer's level of beneficial ownership, as well as his
right of first refusal in connection with certain acquisition proposals for the
Company, could also have the effect of delaying or making more difficult a
change of control of the Company.
SIGNIFICANT LEVERAGE
As of May 31, 1996, as adjusted on a pro forma basis to give effect to the
Merger and the Offerings, the Company's total indebtedness, including the
current portion of long-term indebtedness and capital lease obligations, would
have been $452.8 million, which represents 63% of its total capitalization. See
"Capitalization." In addition, upon consummation of the Offerings and the Credit
Facility Refinancing, the Company expects to have $296.0 million available
credit under the New Credit Facility (before reduction of $9.7 million for
commitments outstanding under letters of credit), all of which will be permitted
to be borrowed under the New Credit Facility and the Indenture governing the
Notes (the "New Indenture") in accordance with their terms. On a pro forma
basis, after giving effect to the Merger and the Offerings and the application
of the net proceeds therefrom, the Company's earnings would have been
insufficient to cover fixed charges by $9.3 million for the six months ended
March 31, 1996. The pro forma earnings deficiency is primarily the result of an
unusual charge recorded in March 1996 of $22.4 million related to the settlement
of two lawsuits. See "Company Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Financial
Statements." The Company believes that cash flows from operations will be
sufficient to meet debt service requirements for interest and scheduled payments
of principal under the Company's indebtedness, including the New Credit Facility
and the Notes. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to generate the cash flows necessary to permit the Company to meet such debt
service requirements.
The Company expects that the New Credit Facility will include covenants that
prohibit or limit, among other things, the sale of assets, the making of
acquisitions and other investments, the incurrence of additional debt and liens
and the payment of dividends, and that require the Company to maintain a minimum
consolidated net worth and to comply with certain financial ratio tests. In
addition, the New Indenture will include covenants that limit, among other
things, the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional
indebtedness, make prepayment of certain indebtedness, pay dividends or redeem
capital stock, create certain liens, sell certain assets, engage in certain
transactions with affiliates, engage in certain mergers and enter a new line of
business. The Company's failure to comply with any of these covenants could
result in an event of default, thereby permitting acceleration of such
indebtedness
13
<PAGE>
as well as indebtedness under other instruments that contain cross-acceleration,
or cross-default provisions, including the New Credit Facility, the indenture
pursuant to which $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 9 7/8%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2003 of Paracelsus (the "Existing Senior
Subordinated Notes") was issued (the "Existing Indenture") and the New
Indenture, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition and results of operations.
The degree to which the Company is leveraged and the covenants described
above may adversely affect the Company's ability to finance its future
operations and could limit its ability to pursue business opportunities that may
be in the interest of the Company and its security holders. In particular,
changes in medical technology, existing, proposed and future legislation,
regulations and the interpretation thereof, and the increasing importance of
managed care contracts and integrated healthcare delivery systems may require
significant investment in facilities, equipment, personnel or services. Although
the Company expects that cash generated from operations and amounts available
under the New Credit Facility will be sufficient to allow it to make such
investments, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain
the funds necessary to make such investments. Furthermore, tax-exempt or
government-owned competitors have certain financial advantages such as
endowments, charitable contributions, tax-exempt financing and exemption from
sales, property and income taxes not available to the Company, providing them
with a potential competitive advantage in making such investments.
PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE
As is typical in the healthcare industry, the Company is subject to claims
and legal actions by patients and others in the ordinary course of business. In
the past, the Company established self-insurance programs and related trust
funds for the settlement of claims not covered by third-party insurance. In
October 1992, the Company established an insurance subsidiary to insure the
Company and its other subsidiaries against liability for future general
liability and malpractice claims. Such subsidiary insures the Company's
hospitals for the first $500,000 per occurrence of general and professional
liability risks occurring after October 1, 1987 and the first $250,000 per
occurrence of workers' compensation liability risks occurring after October 1,
1992. Although management expects that the Company's self-insurance and
related-party insurance, together with its third-party insurance coverage, will
be adequate to provide for liability claims, there can be no assurance that such
insurance will prove to be adequate.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE ISSUANCE AND SALE
Sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock in the open market or the
availability of such shares for sale could adversely affect prevailing market
prices for the Common Stock. See "Shares Eligible for Future Issuance and Sale."
Upon consummation of the Merger (without giving effect to the Equity
Offering), 49,447,167 shares of Common Stock will be outstanding. In addition,
7,515,740 shares of Common Stock are currently expected to be reserved for
issuance to holders of outstanding options (the "Options") and warrants (the
"Warrants") to purchase shares of Common Stock, securities convertible into
Common Stock and other rights to acquire shares of Common Stock. Following the
Merger, certain holders of shares of Common Stock and of Warrants will have
certain rights to require the Company to register Common Stock under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), under registration
rights agreements with the Company. After giving effect to the Equity Offering,
and assuming all Selling Shareholders sell the shares of Common Stock as
indicated in "Selling Shareholders," the shares of Common Stock covered by these
registration rights will include 29,771,742 shares beneficially owned by the
Paracelsus Shareholder and approximately 9,061,000 (7,876,750 if the
Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised) shares beneficially owned by
certain Champion stockholders and warrant holders prior to the Merger (the
"Champion Investors"). In addition, the Company currently intends to register up
to 10,087,137 shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with certain
employee benefit programs. The Company, the Selling Shareholders, the Company's
executive officers and directors and certain other shareholders of the Company
have agreed that for a period of
14
<PAGE>
120 days from the date of this Prospectus, they will not, without the prior
written consent of Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities Corporation, offer,
sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or
transfer any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock or in any other manner transfer all or a portion
of the economic consequences associated with the ownership of any such Common
Stock (other than the granting by the Company of stock options pursuant to the
Company's existing stock option plans and the issuing by the Company of shares
of Common Stock upon the exercise of an Option, Warrant or subscription right
outstanding on the date of this Prospectus) except for the shares of Common
Stock offered and sold in connection with the Equity Offering. See "Shares
Eligible for Future Issuance and Sale."
LACK OF PUBLIC MARKET
Prior to the Merger, the Company has been wholly owned by the Paracelsus
Shareholder and there has been no public trading market for the Common Stock.
The public offering price of the Common Stock will be determined by negotiations
between the Company and the Representatives (as defined below) and may not be
indicative of the market price for shares of the Common Stock after the Equity
Offering. For a description of factors to be considered in determining the
public offering price, see "Underwriting." The Common Stock has been approved
for listing on the NYSE upon consummation of the Merger under the symbol "PLS,"
subject to official notice of issuance. However, there can be no assurance as to
the liquidity of any market that may develop for the Common Stock, the ability
of holders to sell their Common Stock or the price at which holders would be
able to sell their Common Stock.
DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS
The terms of the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility and the New Credit
Facility, as applicable, the New Indenture and the Existing Indenture restrict
the ability of the Company to pay dividends on the Common Stock. The Company
does not expect to pay dividends on the Common Stock in the foreseeable future,
other than the Dividend (as defined below) payable to the Paracelsus
Shareholder. See "The Merger and Financing -- Paracelsus Dividend Prior to
Effective Time" and "Dividend Policy."

THE MERGER AND FINANCING
THE MERGER; PARACELSUS STOCK SPLIT
On April 12, 1996, Paracelsus, PC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Paracelsus, and Champion entered
into the Merger Agreement pursuant to which Champion will become a wholly owned
subsidiary of Paracelsus. Prior to the Effective Time, each of the 450 issued
and outstanding shares of Common Stock will be split into, and each share will
become and thereafter represent, 66,159.426 shares of Common Stock (the
"Paracelsus Stock Split"). At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger, (i)
each share of Champion common stock (the "Champion Common Stock") will
automatically be converted into the right to receive one share of Common Stock
and (ii) each share of Champion preferred stock (the "Champion Preferred Stock"
and, together with the Champion Common Stock, the "Champion Capital Stock") will
automatically be converted into the right to receive two shares of Common Stock.
Approval of the Merger requires (i) the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the total voting power represented by the outstanding shares of
Champion Capital Stock, voting together as a single class, (ii) the affirmative
vote of the holders of at least 90% of the outstanding shares of Champion Series
C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class and (iii)
the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 90% of the outstanding shares of
Champion Series D Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, voting together as a
separate class. The holders of all of the outstanding shares of Champion
Preferred Stock, which in the aggregate represent approximately 26% of the total
voting power of the outstanding shares of Champion Capital Stock, have entered
into an agreement with Champion to vote all shares of Champion Preferred Stock
beneficially owned by them in favor of the Merger.
PARACELSUS DIVIDEND PRIOR TO EFFECTIVE TIME
Prior to the Effective Time, Paracelsus will declare a dividend (the
"Dividend") in the amount of $21.1 million, plus $3,574 for each day from and
including July 31, 1996 to the date the Dividend is paid, payable to the
Paracelsus Shareholder, to be paid on a date not later than 60 days after the
Effective Time.
Pursuant to the dividend and note agreement between the Paracelsus
Shareholder and Paracelsus (the "Dividend and Note Agreement") to be entered
into immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Paracelsus Shareholder will
agree to purchase promptly after receipt of the Dividend a 6.51% subordinated
note due 2006 of Paracelsus (the "Shareholder Subordinated Note") for $7.2
million. The Shareholder Subordinated Note will have a term of ten years, will
bear interest at the rate of 6.51% per year and will provide for payments of
principal and accrued interest in an aggregate annual amount of $1.0 million.
The Shareholder Subordinated Note will be generally subordinated in right of
payment to: (i) all "senior indebtedness" as defined in the Existing Indenture
(including without limitation the New Credit Facility); (ii) the Existing Senior
Subordinated Notes; (iii) the Notes and any other indebtedness ranking PARI
PASSU with the Notes and/or refinancing indebtedness; and (iv) any other
indebtedness for borrowed money with an initial principal amount in excess of
$50.0 million that is designated by the Company as ranking senior to the
Shareholder Subordinated Note.
CREDIT FACILITY REFINANCING
In connection with the Merger and the Credit Facility Refinancing, the
Company currently intends to arrange for the New Credit Facility with Bank of
America National Trust and Savings Association ("Bank of America NT&SA"), as
Administrative Agent, Banque Paribas, as Documentation Agent, and NationsBank of
Texas, N.A., as Managing Agent, and a syndicate of other lenders at or as soon
as practicable after the Effective Time. The New Credit Facility will provide
for borrowings of up to $400.0 million. The Company currently intends to
refinance, through borrowings under the New Credit Facility, all amounts
outstanding under the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility. At May 31, 1996, the
balance outstanding under the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility was
approximately $189.0 million. Although the Merger is not conditioned upon the
closing of the Credit Facility Refinancing, if the Credit Facility Refinancing
is not consummated Champion and Paracelsus may be
16
<PAGE>
required to obtain certain consents and waivers under their respective existing
credit facilities in order to consummate the Merger. The failure to obtain such
consents and waivers may be deemed to give rise to a default thereunder and
perhaps cause other defaults under the outstanding obligations of Champion and
Paracelsus. There can be no assurance that such consents and waivers, if
required, would be obtained. Although the Company currently intends to
consummate the Credit Facility Refinancing concurrently with or promptly
following the consummation of the Notes Offering, all references in this
Prospectus to the Company's indebtedness, unless the context otherwise requires,
assume that the Credit Facility Refinancing has not occurred and that the
Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility is in effect. See "Risk Factors --
Significant Leverage."
FINANCING PLAN
The following sets forth as of May 31, 1996 the pro forma sources and uses
of funds raised by the Company in the Offerings, assuming (i) 5,200,000 newly
issued shares of Common Stock are offered and sold by the Company in the Equity
Offering at a public offering price of $11.50 per share and (ii) $250,000,000
aggregate principal amount of Notes are sold by the Company in the Notes
Offering at 100% of their principal amount.

(1) After giving effect to the Offerings and the application of net proceeds
therefrom, $100.0 million would have been outstanding under the Existing
Paracelsus Credit Facility on a pro forma basis. After giving effect to the
consummation of the Credit Facility Refinancing, this amount would be $104.0
million (assuming fees and expenses to effect the Credit Facility
Refinancing of $4.0 million).
(2) Includes estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and other
estimated expenses of the Company in connection with the Offerings.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company intends that a portion of the estimated aggregate net proceeds
to the Company of $55.9 million from the Equity Offering and $241.3 million from
the Notes Offering, in each case after deducting estimated expenses and
underwriting discounts and commissions, will be loaned or contributed to
Champion to be used to prepay the following Champion indebtedness as of May 31,
1996: (i) $54.2 million outstanding under Champion's existing credit facility
(the "Champion Credit Facility") (which currently bears interest at the weighted
average rate of 8.6% per annum and matures on March 31, 1999); (ii) $59.3
million outstanding principal amount of Champion's 11% Series D Subordinated
Notes due December 31, 2003 (the "Champion Series D Notes"), plus prepayment
premiums
17
<PAGE>
equal to 6% of the face value of such notes; (iii) $35.0 million outstanding
principal amount of Champion's 11% Series E Senior Subordinated Notes due
December 31, 2003 (which currently bears interest at the rate of 11.5% per
annum) (the "Champion Series E Notes" and, together with the Champion Series D
Notes, the "Champion Notes"), plus prepayment premiums equal to 6% of the face
value of such notes; and (iv) $10.7 million principal amount of certain other
outstanding Champion indebtedness (which currently bears interest at the rate of
13.05% per annum and matures on November 1, 2008), plus aggregate prepayment
premiums equal to approximately $900,000. The estimated remaining aggregate net
proceeds to the Company of $131.4 million from the Offerings will be used to
reduce outstanding indebtedness under the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility or
the New Credit Facility, as applicable. Consummation of the Equity Offering is
not contingent upon the Notes Offering, and there can be no assurance as to
whether or when the Notes Offering will be consummated.
DIVIDEND POLICY
After the Merger, the Company currently intends to retain any earnings to
fund future growth and the operation of its business and therefore does not
anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Certain debt
instruments, including the New Credit Facility, the Existing Paracelsus Credit
Facility, the Existing Indenture and the New Indenture, contain covenants which
restrict the ability of the Company to pay cash dividends on the Common Stock.
The payment of future dividends on the Common Stock will be a business decision
to be made by the Board from time to time based upon the results of operations
and financial condition of the Company, restrictions under debt agreements,
capital requirements and such other factors as the Board considers relevant.
Prior to the Effective Time, Paracelsus will declare the Dividend payable to the
Paracelsus Shareholder on a date not later than 60 days after the consummation
of the Merger. See "The Merger and Financing -- Paracelsus Dividend Prior to
Effective Time."

NOTES TO COMPANY UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED COMBINING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) To record the pro forma increase in amortization of deferred financing
costs as a result of the $250,000,000 Notes Offering. The Notes are assumed
to have a term of 10 years, with deferred financing costs equal to
approximately 3.5% of the principal amount, or $8,750,000. Deferred
financing costs are assumed capitalized in long-term assets and amortized
over the term of the Notes. See "Risk Factors -- Significant Leverage" and
"The Merger and Financing."
(2) To record a pro forma net increase in interest expense in connection with
the Notes Offering. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statements
of Income assume that the Notes have an annual interest rate of 10% and
that net proceeds from the Notes Offering are used to pay the following:
(i) the Champion Notes, including prepayment premiums equal to 6% of the
face value of the Champion Notes; (ii) amounts outstanding under the
Champion Credit Facility; (iii) the pro forma increases in the Champion
Credit Facility as reflected in Champion Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Combining Statements of Income included elsewhere herein; (iv) amounts
outstanding under certain other Champion indebtedness; and (v) to the
extent funds are available, actual and pro forma amounts outstanding under
the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility as reflected in the Paracelsus
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Financial Statements and the
Paracelsus and Champion Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Financial
Statements included elsewhere herein (items (i) through (v), the "Old Debt
Amounts"). The Old Debt Amounts averaged approximately $248,074,000 for the
fiscal year ended September 30, 1995, and approximately $229,428,000 and
$303,144,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996,
respectively. If the assumed interest rates increased by 0.25%, interest
expense would increase by $625,000 for the fiscal year ended September 30,
1995 and $312,500 for the six months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996.
(3) To reflect the pro forma provision for income taxes at the effective rate
of 41%.
(4) To reflect the consummation of the Equity Offering and the application of
the estimated net proceeds of $55,913,000 therefrom to reduce outstanding
indebtedness under the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility. On a pro forma
basis, after application of estimated net proceeds of $241,250,000 from the
issuance of the Notes, amounts outstanding under the Existing Paracelsus
Credit Facility averaged approximately $6,824,000 and $61,894,000 for the
fiscal year ended September 30, 1995 and the six months ended March 31,
1996, respectively. No amounts were assumed outstanding for the six months
ended March 31, 1995 on a pro forma basis.

PARACELSUS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CERTAIN STATEMENTS UNDER THIS CAPTION "PARACELSUS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS" CONSTITUTE
"FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" UNDER THE REFORM ACT. SEE "RISK FACTORS --
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS."
The following should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
Statements of Paracelsus and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in
this Prospectus.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
The results of operations discussed below compare the operating results for
the six months ended March 31, 1996 to the operating results for the six months
ended March 31, 1995. Paracelsus closed Bellwood Health Center on April 24, 1995
(the "Closed Facility"). All Paracelsus healthcare facilities outside California
are referred to as the "Eastern Region Facilities."
Operating revenues increased 3.3% to $260,590,000 for the six months ended
March 31, 1996 from $252,356,000 for the comparable period in the prior year.
After excluding operating revenues of the Closed Facility, operating revenues on
a same-hospital basis increased $13,574,000, or 5.5%. This increase was
principally due to an increase of $7,856,000 in the home health agency operating
revenues generated by the Eastern Region Facilities, resulting from an increase
of 125,953, or 52.2%, in home health agency visits. The remaining increase in
operating revenues is attributed to the increase in outpatient visits,
principally in the Eastern Region Facilities.
Salaries and benefits increased 4.2% to $113,162,000 for the six months
ended March 31, 1996 from $108,575,000 for the comparable period in the prior
year. After excluding salaries and benefits of the Closed Facility, salaries and
benefits increased $6,289,000, or 5.9%, offset by decreased salaries and
benefits relating to the subcontracting of pharmacy purchases and management
activities described below. This increase was principally due to an 11.1%
increase in the employee workforce at the Eastern Region Facilities to service
the expansion of the home health agency programs. In addition, the employee
workforce was increased at the Eastern Region Facilities to service the
increased volume of outpatient services. As a percentage of operating revenues,
salaries and benefits increased to 43.4% for the six months ended March 31, 1996
from 43.0% for the comparable period in the prior year.
Supplies decreased 9.7% to $19,363,000 for the six months ended March 31,
1996 from $21,432,000 for the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease
was principally due to a reduction in pharmacy supplies expense for the six
months ended March 31, 1996 of $2,835,000 as a result of the subcontracting in
June 1995 of Paracelsus' pharmacy purchases and management activities to a
pharmacy management company. Paracelsus also reduced its non-pharmacy supplies
expense due to improved purchasing terms and price reductions received under its
group purchasing contract. As a percentage of operating revenues, supplies
decreased to 7.4% for the six months ended March 31, 1996 from 8.5% for the
comparable period in the prior year.
Purchased services increased 21.5% to $34,174,000 for the six months ended
March 31, 1996 from $28,118,000 for the comparable period in the prior year due
to the pharmacy management company contract, which increased purchased services
by $3,665,000, and an increase in the home health agency programs' purchased
services of $927,000 in the Eastern Region Facilities. As a percentage of
operating revenues, purchased services increased to 13.1% for the six months
ended March 31, 1996 from 11.1% for the comparable period in the prior year.
Provision for bad debts increased 4.7% to $20,191,000 for the six months
ended March 31, 1996 from $19,283,000 for the comparable period in the prior
year, due primarily to an increase in provision for bad debts at two of the
psychiatric facilities as a result of reductions in payments received for
psychiatric services. As a percentage of operating revenues, provision for bad
debts increased to 7.7% for the six months ended March 31, 1996 from 7.6% for
the comparable period in the prior year.
29
<PAGE>
During March 1996, Paracelsus recognized a charge for the settlement of two
lawsuits totaling $22,356,000. The charge included the settlement payments, the
payment of legal fees associated with the lawsuits and the write-off of certain
psychiatric accounts receivable.
FISCAL YEAR 1995 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 1994
The results of operations discussed below compare the operating results for
the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995 to the operating results for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1994. Paracelsus sold Womans Hospital on September 30,
1995 and Advanced Healthcare Diagnostics Services, a mobile diagnostics
business, in August 1995 (collectively, the "Sold Facilities"), and acquired
Jackson County Hospital on September 5, 1995 and Keith Medical Group on August
1, 1995 (collectively, the "Acquired Facilities").
Operating revenues increased to $509,729,000 in 1995 from $507,864,000 in
1994, an increase of $1,865,000, or 0.4%. Included in the $509,729,000 operating
revenues in 1995 is a net gain from the sale of the Sold Facilities of
$9,026,000. After excluding the operating revenues of the Acquired Facilities,
the Closed Facility and the Sold Facilities, and the net gain from the sale of
the Sold Facilities, operating revenues on a same-hospital basis increased to
$478,659,000 in 1995 from $471,808,000 in 1994, an increase of $6,851,000 or
1.5%. This increase in operating revenues was caused by growth in same-hospital
outpatient volume. On a same-hospital basis, outpatient visits increased by 7.6%
in 1995, while inpatient admissions decreased by 1.0% in 1995. The significant
increase in outpatient visits in 1995 was primarily a result of Paracelsus'
expansion into the home health services business, especially in its Eastern
Region Facilities, and also the further introduction of additional outpatient
services at several of Paracelsus' facilities. The decrease in admissions was
primarily a result of the effect of managed care contracts and the shifting of
inpatient care to outpatient services, especially at the California hospitals,
where admissions, on a same-hospital basis, decreased by 4.9%.
Total costs and expenses as a percentage of operating revenues, after
excluding the net gain from the sale of the Sold Facilities from operating
revenues, increased to 97.0% in 1995 from 95.4% in 1994. The primary reasons for
this increase were the effect of the 1995 restructuring and an unusual charge of
$5,150,000, which included severance benefits and contract termination costs of
$973,000 for the closure of the Closed Facility and certain executives' special
bonuses of $4,177,000 for services provided to Paracelsus. The closure costs and
special bonuses increased operating costs and expenses as a percentage of
operating revenues by 1.0%.
Salaries and benefits decreased to $209,672,000 in 1995 from $209,772,000 in
1994, a decrease of $100,000. As a percentage of operating revenues, after
excluding the net gain from the sale of the Sold Facilities, salaries and
benefits increased to 41.9% in 1995 from 41.3% in 1994. This increase was mainly
a result of annual merit pay increases, offset in part by reductions in staffing
at several of the facilities.
Supplies decreased to $40,780,000 in 1995 from $42,890,000 in 1994, a
decrease of $2,110,000, or 4.9%. The decrease in supplies is mainly a result of
Paracelsus' emphasis on reducing inventory levels, more favorable terms
resulting from Paracelsus' group purchasing contract and price reductions
negotiated directly with vendors.
Purchased services increased to $58,113,000 in 1995 from $55,078,000 in
1994, an increase of $3,035,000, or 5.5%, and as a percentage of operating
revenues, after excluding the net gain from the sale of the Sold Facilities,
increased to 11.6% in 1995 from 10.9% in 1994. Of the $3,035,000 increase,
$2,349,000, or 77.4%, was caused by increases in purchased medical services
mainly resulting from the increase in outpatient volume.
The provision for bad debts increased to $39,277,000 in 1995 from
$33,110,000 in 1994, an increase of $6,167,000, or 18.6%, and increased as a
percentage of operating revenues, after excluding the net gain from the sale of
the Sold Facilities, to 7.8% in 1995 from 6.5% in 1994. Of the $6,167,000
30
<PAGE>
increase in 1995, $5,037,000, or 81.7%, was attributed to the three psychiatric
facilities. The increase in the provision for bad debts at the three psychiatric
facilities is attributed to the reductions in payments received for psychiatric
services.
Other operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenues decreased to
19.9% in 1995 from 22.5% in 1994. This reduction is mainly a result of lower
medical malpractice liability costs and reductions in non-medical supplies,
property insurance, rental/lease expense and consulting expenses.
Depreciation and amortization increased to $17,276,000 in 1995 from
$16,565,000 in 1994, an increase of $711,000, or 4.3%. This increase is mainly
the result of capital expenditures made during 1995. Interest expense increased
to $15,746,000 in 1995 from $12,966,000 in 1994, an increase of $2,780,000, or
21.4%. This increase was mainly caused by an increase in Paracelsus' average
outstanding borrowings under the then existing credit facility and an increase
in interest rates on the then existing credit facility and the commercial paper
program.
Minority interests decreased to $1,927,000 in 1995 from $2,517,000 in 1994,
a decrease of $590,000, or 23.4%. This decrease was caused mainly by a decrease
in the volume of business at two of Paracelsus' podiatry joint ventures, one of
which was terminated during 1995, and an obesity surgery joint venture that was
also terminated during 1995.
FISCAL YEAR 1994 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 1993
The results of operations discussed below compare the operating results for
the fiscal year ended September 30, 1994 to the operating results for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1993. Paracelsus acquired Desert Palms Community
Hospital on August 31, 1993, Halstead Hospital on June 30, 1993 and Elmwood
Medical Center on March 1, 1993 (collectively, the "1993 Acquisitions").
Operating revenues increased to $507,864,000 in 1994 from $435,102,000 in
1993, an increase of $72,762,000, or 16.7%. Of this increase, $57,694,000 or
79.3% was attributable to the 1993 Acquisitions for which there was a full 12
months of operations in 1994. Excluding the 1993 Acquisitions, operating
revenues on a same-hospital basis increased $15,068,000, or 3.7%. This increase
in operating revenues was due primarily to an increase in gross outpatient
revenues to $209,849,000 in 1994 from $187,646,000 in 1993, an increase of
$22,203,000, or 11.8%. The growth in outpatient services continues to result in
part from the introduction of additional outpatient services at several of
Paracelsus' facilities. Paracelsus' management believes the decline in inpatient
occupancy rates to 42.6% in 1994 from 42.9% in 1993 resulted primarily from
increased efforts by payors to reduce inpatient hospitalization, and to shift
medical services to lower cost outpatient settings whenever possible. However,
the reduction in occupancy rates between 1994 and 1993 is not as significant as
was experienced between 1993 and 1992.
Total costs and expenses as a percentage of operating revenues increased to
95.4% in 1994 from 94.2% in 1993. Through a continued effort to reduce other
operating expenses, Paracelsus made reductions during 1994 in its insurance
costs, including malpractice and workers' compensation. As a percentage of
operating revenues, other operating expenses decreased to 22.5% in 1994 from
23.1% in 1993. Purchased services increased to $55,078,000 in 1994 from
$48,951,000 in 1993, an increase of $6,127,000, or 12.5%. However, as a
percentage of operating revenues, purchased services decreased to 10.9% in 1994
from 11.3% in 1993. The provision for bad debts increased to $33,110,000 in 1994
from $26,629,000 in 1993, an increase of $6,481,000, or 24.3%. After excluding
the 1993 Acquisitions, the provision for bad debts increased by $2,574,000, or
10.1%. The increase was due primarily to higher provisions for bad debts at the
three psychiatric facilities. As a percentage of operating revenues, the
provision for bad debts increased to 6.5% in 1994 from 6.1% in 1993.
Salaries and benefits increased to $209,772,000 in 1994 from $174,849,000 in
1993, an increase of $34,923,000, or 20.0%. Salaries and benefits as a
percentage of operating revenues increased to 41.3% in 1994 from 40.2% in 1993.
This increase was due primarily to additional staffing requirements at
31
<PAGE>
certain existing facilities and increases in Paracelsus' self-insured health
insurance program. Effective October 1, 1994, Paracelsus replaced the
self-insurance program at its California facilities, where health insurance
costs are the highest, with an outside HMO/PPO program.
Depreciation and amortization increased to $16,565,000 in 1994 from
$14,587,000 in 1993, an increase of $1,978,000, or 13.6%. This increase is due
primarily to having a full year of depreciation in 1994 for the 1993
Acquisitions and capital expenditures Paracelsus made in 1994. Interest expense
increased to $12,966,000 in 1994 from $10,213,000 in 1993, an increase of
$2,753,000, or 27.0%. This increase was attributable to interest on the Existing
Senior Subordinated Notes issued in October 1993, and increases in interest
rates applicable to Paracelsus' borrowings under its then existing credit
facility and the commercial paper program.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Paracelsus' working capital as of March 31, 1996 was $73,415,000, an
increase of $13,034,000 from September 30, 1995. The increase in working capital
is primarily attributable to decreases in current maturities of long-term debt
obligations and capital lease obligations, and an increase in accounts
receivable. The increase in accounts receivable is attributable mainly to an
increase in psychiatric and home healthcare services, which take longer to
collect than Paracelsus' acute care receivables. The decrease in current
maturities of long-term debt and capital lease obligations is attributable to
the refinancing of mortgage debt on one of Paracelsus' partnerships. Other
significant changes in working capital included an increase in deferred tax
assets and accrued expenses related to the settlement of two lawsuits.
On December 8, 1995, Paracelsus entered into the Existing Paracelsus Credit
Facility, which provides up to $230,000,000 of revolving credit. The Existing
Paracelsus Credit Facility has been used to finance acquisitions, to refinance
existing credit facility borrowings and for general corporate purposes,
including working capital and capital expenditures. Credit facility borrowings
were increased from $27,500,000 at September 30, 1995 to $51,000,000 at March
31, 1996. The additional borrowings were used to refinance mortgage debt on one
of Paracelsus' partnerships, to finance acquisitions of property and equipment
and for working capital purposes. Paracelsus anticipates that existing capital
resources and internally generated cash flows will be sufficient to fund capital
expenditures, debt service and working capital requirements.
The accounts receivable financing program (the "Accounts Receivable
Program") implemented in 1993 provides Paracelsus with up to $65,000,000 in
accounts receivable financing. Pursuant to the Accounts Receivable Program,
Paracelsus' hospitals sell accounts receivable that meet certain requirements
specified under the Accounts Receivable Program ("Eligible Receivables") to a
special purpose subsidiary of Paracelsus, which in turn resells the Eligible
Receivables to an unaffiliated trust (the "Trust") at a discount to reflect
reserves for uncollectible receivables and interest expense. A special purpose
subsidiary of a major lending institution provides the Trust with up to
$65,000,000 in commercial paper financing to purchase the Eligible Receivables,
secured by an interest in certain of the Eligible Receivables held by the Trust.
Interest expense related to commercial paper and investment participations
issued under the Accounts Receivable Program is passed through to Paracelsus and
included as interest expense on Paracelsus' consolidated financial statements.
At March 31, 1996, the maximum financing of $65,000,000 available under the
program was outstanding.
RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS 121"), "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,"
which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in
operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets'
carrying amount. SFAS 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived assets
that are expected to be disposed of. Paracelsus will adopt SFAS 121 on October
1, 1996, and, based on current circumstances, does not believe the effect of the
adoption will be material.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
A significant portion of Paracelsus' operating expenses is subject to
inflationary increases, the impact of which Paracelsus has historically been
able to substantially offset through price increases, by expanding services and
by increasing operating efficiencies. However, price increases alone have not
kept up with increases in costs. To the extent that inflation occurs in the
future, Paracelsus may not be able to pass on the increased costs associated
with providing healthcare services to patients with government or managed care
payors unless such payors correspondingly increase reimbursement rates.
EFFECT OF PROPOSED LEGISLATION
Federal and state legislators continue to consider legislation that could
significantly impact Medicare, Medicaid and other government funding of
healthcare costs. Initiatives currently before Congress, if enacted, would
significantly reduce payments under various government programs, including,
among others, payments to teaching hospitals and hospitals providing a
disproportionate amount of care to indigent patients. A reduction in these
payments would adversely affect operating revenues and operating margins at
certain of Paracelsus' hospitals. Paracelsus is unable to predict what
legislation, if any, will be enacted at the Federal and state level in the
future or what effect such legislation might have on Paracelsus' financial
position, results of operations or liquidity.

(1) Net revenue was comprised of patient revenue (net of contractual
adjustments) and other revenue.
(2) In 1992, Champion expensed approximately $1,300 in fees and other costs
related to its unsuccessful attempt to acquire twelve hospitals from Humana,
Inc.
(3) On September 1, 1992, Champion acquired Gulf Coast Hospital ("GCH"), a
competing hospital located approximately three miles from Champion's
Baytown, Texas facility. Subsequent to the purchase, Champion consolidated
the operations of GCH onto the campus of its existing Baytown hospital and,
in June 1994, sold the former GCH property with restrictions limiting its
use to non-competitive activities without Champion's permission. As a result
of the consolidation, Champion incurred a charge of approximately $15,456
against earnings in 1993.
(4) In 1994, Champion incurred approximately $300 in fees and other costs
related to its efforts to acquire Methodist Medical Center ("MMC") in
Jacksonville, Florida. On March 6, 1995, Champion notified MMC's management
that it would cease all actions related to this transaction; accordingly,
such amounts were expensed in the fourth quarter of 1994.
(5) The extraordinary gain in 1991 relates to the utilization of net income tax
benefits arising from the carryforward of net operating losses. Champion
recognized extraordinary losses of $1,230 and $1,118 in 1993 and 1995,
respectively, on early extinguishment of debt. The extraordinary loss for
1993 was net of a tax benefit of $634, and no tax benefit was allocated to
the extraordinary losses in 1995.
(6) Adjusted EBITDA represents income before income taxes, depreciation and
amortization, interest, cumulative effect of accounting change,
restructuring and unusual charges, settlement costs, gains (losses) from
disposal of facilities and extraordinary items. While Adjusted EBITDA is not
a substitute for operating cash flows determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, it is a commonly used tool for
measuring a company's ability to service debt.
(7) Effective December 31, 1995, Champion entered into a recapitalization
agreement which provided for the conversion of certain redeemable preferred
stock to Champion Common Stock and eliminated the accrual of future
dividends on its remaining Champion Preferred Stock. See "Champion
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations."

CHAMPION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CERTAIN STATEMENTS UNDER THIS CAPTION "CHAMPION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS" CONSTITUTE
"FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" UNDER THE REFORM ACT. SEE "RISK FACTORS --
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS."
The following should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
Statements of Champion and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this
Prospectus.
IMPACT OF ACQUISITIONS
Champion was formed to acquire and operate acute care and specialty
hospitals. At March 31, 1996, Champion owned seven hospitals and a 50% interest
in DHHS, a partnership that is operated by Champion and that owns and operates
two acute care hospitals with a total of 341 beds in North Dakota under the name
"Dakota Heartland Health System."
Because of the financial impact of Champion's recent acquisitions and the
formation of DHHS, it is difficult to make meaningful comparisons between
Champion's financial statements for the fiscal periods presented. Furthermore,
each additional hospital acquisition can have a significant impact on Champion's
overall financial performance. After acquiring a hospital, Champion attempts to
implement various operating efficiencies and cost-cutting strategies, including
staffing adjustments. Champion may also incur significant additional costs to
expand the hospital's services and improve its market position. Champion can
give no assurance that these investments and other activities will result in
increases in net revenue or reductions in costs at the acquired facility.
Consequently, an acquired hospital may adversely affect Champion's operating
results in the near term. Champion believes this effect will be mitigated as
more hospitals are acquired.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH
31, 1995
Champion had net revenue of $50,681,000 for the quarter ended March 31,
1996, compared to $28,727,000 for same period in 1995, an increase of
$21,954,000, or 76.4%. The increase was due primarily to Champion's acquisition
of the 200-bed Salt Lake Regional Medical Center ("SLRMC") in April 1995, the
acquisition of home healthcare operations in June 1995 and in January 1996, and
the commencement of operations at the 101-bed Westwood Medical Center ("WMC") in
October 1995. WMC replaced the 60-bed Physicians and Surgeons Hospital located
in Midland, Texas ("P&S"), which Champion had acquired in 1993.
Champion's operations are labor intensive with salaries and benefits
comprising the single largest item in operating expenses. Salaries and benefits
increased 72.4% to $22,006,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, compared to
$12,762,000 in 1995, primarily as a result of Champion's acquisition of SLRMC
and the acquisition of home healthcare operations. As a percentage of net
revenue, salaries and benefits were 43.4% and 44.4% for the quarters ended March
31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The decline in salaries and benefits as a
percentage of net revenue reflects Champion's ongoing efforts to implement
various operating efficiencies and cost-cutting measures at its hospitals.
The major components of other operating and administrative expenses were
professional fees, taxes (other than income), insurance, utilities and other
services. In absolute terms, other operating and administrative expenses
increased by 76.2% to $19,232,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, compared
to $10,913,000 in 1995, due to Champion's acquisition of SLRMC and the start-up
of WMC. However, overall other operating and administrative expenses were
substantially unchanged at 37.9% and 38.0% of net revenue for the quarters ended
March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Provision for bad debts was $3,670,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996,
or 7.4% of net patient service revenue, compared to $2,073,000, or 7.5%, for the
same period in 1995.
36
<PAGE>
Interest expense increased to $4,587,000 in the first quarter of 1996,
compared to $2,630,000 for the comparable period in 1995, due principally to (i)
the increase in amounts outstanding under the Champion Credit Facility as a
result of its acquisition of SLRMC and Jordan Valley Hospital ("Jordan Valley")
and (ii) the issuance of the Champion Series E Notes on June 12, 1995. The
increase in interest expense was offset, in part, by a decline in the interest
rate applicable to the Champion Credit Facility (a weighted average of
approximately 8.71% and 9.12% for the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively).
Depreciation and amortization expense was $3,016,000 in 1996, compared to
$1,532,000 in 1995, an increase of $1,484,000, or 96.9%. This increase is due
primarily to Champion's acquisition of SLRMC and the completion of construction
at WMC as well as Champion's ongoing capital improvement programs at its
existing hospitals.
Income before income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 includes
approximately $3,973,000 attributable to Champion's equity in the earnings of
DHHS, compared to approximately $1,478,000 for the same period a year earlier,
or an increase of 168.8%. The increase was due to (i) a $1,535,000, or 5.9%,
increase in DHHS net revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, compared to
the same period a year earlier, primarily as a result of an expanded and
improved service mix, and (ii) a $3,175,000, or 14.1%, decrease in current
period operating expenses, compared to the prior period. The reduction in
operating expenses is due primarily to the elimination of duplicative services
and overhead costs and reflects Champion's ongoing efforts to integrate the
operations of the two hospitals that comprise DHHS.
1995 COMPARED TO 1994
Champion's net revenue was $167,520,000 for the year ended December 31,
1995, compared to $104,193,000 for 1994, an increase of $63,327,000, or 60.8%.
The increase was due primarily to hospital acquisitions in the fourth quarter of
1994 and the second quarter of 1995 (collectively referred to as the "Champion
Acquisitions"), and was offset, in part, by the contribution of Heartland
Medical Center ("Heartland") to DHHS. Net revenue for 1994 included
approximately $40,061,000 attributable to Heartland.
The occupancy rate of Champion's consolidated hospitals was substantially
unchanged at 38% in 1995 and 1994, due primarily to the acquisition of two
psychiatric hospitals in the fourth quarter of 1994. In general, psychiatric
hospitals derive a greater percentage of their revenue from inpatient services
than do acute care hospitals. The occupancy rate at Champion's general acute
care hospitals declined to 33% in 1995 compared to 35% in 1994, due primarily to
Champion's contribution of Heartland to DHHS effective December 31, 1994, and
due to an industry-wide trend of decreased inpatient utilization at acute care
hospitals. Champion expects this trend to continue as Medicare, Medicaid, HMOs,
PPOs and other third-party payors continue to exert pressure on healthcare
providers to reduce hospital stays and to provide services, when appropriate, on
a less expensive outpatient basis. Heartland had an occupancy rate of 41% in
1994.
Gross outpatient revenue increased 45.8% from $63,387,000 in 1994 to
$92,392,000 in 1995. Outpatient revenue as a percentage of gross patient service
revenue declined from 38.1% in 1994 to 33.9% in 1995, due to Champion's
acquisition of two psychiatric hospitals in the fourth quarter of 1994.
Excluding these two facilities, outpatient revenue comprised 39.5% of gross
patient revenue in 1995.
Gross patient revenue attributable to Medicare increased to 42% in 1995,
compared to 39% in 1994, due to the inclusion of certain of Champion's
acquisitions for the full 12-month period ended December 31, 1995. These
facilities generally derived a greater portion of their gross patient revenue
from the Medicare program than did the hospitals owned and consolidated by
Champion for the 12 months ended December 31, 1994. Gross revenue attributable
to Medicaid increased to 19% in 1995
37
<PAGE>
compared to 18% in 1994, due primarily to Champion's acquisition of two
psychiatric hospitals in the fourth quarter of 1994. Approximately 50% of gross
patient revenue at these facilities is attributable to the Medicaid program.
Net patient service revenue is presented in the Consolidated Statement of
Operations net of the provision for contractual allowances. Such provision was
40% in 1995 and 1994. The provision for contractual allowances as a percentage
of gross patient service revenue is likely to increase in the future (i) as rate
increases at Champion's hospitals exceed increases, if any, in fixed
reimbursement rates, (ii) from increased discounts on standard rates due to
pressure from third-party payors, such as HMOs, PPOs and private insurance
companies and (iii) from increased inpatient utilization by Medicare and
Medicaid patients. Payments received under these programs are generally less
than established billing rates. The trend toward managed care may affect
hospitals' ability to maintain their current rate of net revenue growth and
operating margins.
Net revenue for 1995 and 1994 included approximately $744,000 and
$2,196,000, respectively, in interest income earned on cash balances during the
year.
Champion's operations are labor intensive with salaries and benefits
comprising the single largest item in operating expenses. Salaries and benefits
increased 75.9% to $72,188,000 in 1995, compared to $41,042,000 in 1994, as a
result primarily of the Champion Acquisitions. In addition, corporate salaries
increased due to the increase in hospitals, new public reporting requirements
and preparation for additional acquisitions. As a percentage of net revenue,
salary and benefits increased to 43.1% in 1995, compared to 39.4% in 1994. This
trend is largely a result of Champion's strategy of acquiring underperforming
hospitals that often incur labor and other operating costs in excess of what
Champion believes is necessary for the efficient operation of a facility.
Champion attempts to reduce these costs over time by implementing various
operating efficiencies and cost-cutting strategies. However, Champion can give
no assurance that its efforts will ultimately result in significant cost
reductions at these facilities.
The major components of other operating expenses were professional fees,
taxes (other than income), insurance, utilities and other services. In absolute
terms, other operating and supplies expense increased by 54.6% to $65,707,000 in
1995, compared to $42,511,000 in 1994, as a result of the Champion Acquisitions.
However, overall other operating and supplies expense declined to 39.2% of net
revenue in 1995, compared to 40.8% in 1994.
Provision for bad debts was $12,016,000 in 1995, or 7.3% of net patient
service revenue, compared to $7,812,000, or 7.8%, in 1994. The prior year
included approximately $700,000 in charges due to problems resulting from the
installation of an information management system at one facility. Excluding this
charge, provision for bad debts was approximately 7.1% of net patient service
revenue in 1994.
Interest expense increased from $6,375,000 in 1994 to $13,618,000 in 1995,
due principally to (i) the increase in amounts outstanding under the Champion
Credit Facility as a result of its acquisition of SLRMC and funding of ongoing
construction projects; (ii) the issuance of the Champion Series D Notes on
December 30, 1994 and the Champion Series E Notes on June 12, 1995 and (iii)
debt assumed and/or issued in connection with Champion's acquisition of
AmeriHealth, Inc. ("AmeriHealth") on December 6, 1994, through a merger (the
"AmeriHealth Merger") and the acquisition of Psychiatric Healthcare Corporation
("Psychiatric Healthcare") in the fourth quarter of 1994. Interest expense also
increased due to an increase in the interest rate applicable to its senior bank
credit facility (a weighted average of approximately 9.3% and 7.7% for the years
ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively).
Depreciation and amortization expense was $9,290,000 in 1995, compared to
$4,010,000 in 1994, an increase of $5,280,000, or 131.7%. This increase is due
primarily to the Champion Acquisitions, the completion of a hospital and medical
office building in Midland, Texas and an ambulatory care center in Baytown,
Texas, as well as Champion's ongoing capital improvement programs at its
existing hospitals.
38
<PAGE>
Champion capitalized approximately $1,462,000 and $294,000 in interest costs
associated with the construction of a hospital and other medical-related
facilities at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. With the completion of
the hospital and medical office building in Midland, Texas and the ambulatory
care center in Baytown, Texas, Champion expects capitalized interest to be
minimal in 1996.
Operating income for 1995 included approximately $8,881,000 attributable to
Champion's equity in the earnings of DHHS. Champion contributed Heartland to
DHHS effective December 31, 1994 and accounts for its investment in DHHS under
the equity method. Previously, Champion had consolidated Heartland for financial
reporting purposes. Operating income for 1994 included approximately $6,201,000
attributable to Heartland.
1994 COMPARED TO 1993
Champion's net revenue was $104,193,000 for the year ended December 31,
1994, compared to $89,832,000 for 1993, an increase of $14,361,000, or 16.0%.
This increase was due primarily to the inclusion of P&S for a full year in 1994,
compared to eight months in 1993 (the year P&S was acquired) and Champion's
acquisition of Psychiatric Healthcare and the AmeriHealth Merger in the fourth
quarter of 1994. On a same hospital basis, net revenue decreased approximately
$2,550,000, or 3.2%, in 1994 due to the elimination of a psychiatric program at
Baycoast Medical Center ("BMC") and a decline in outpatient surgery cases due to
capacity constraints following the consolidation of the operations of GCH onto
the BMC campus in December 1993.
The average occupancy rates at Champion's hospitals declined from 40.1% in
1993 to 38.3% in 1994. This decline is consistent with the industry trend of
decreased inpatient utilization at acute care hospitals and is due primarily to
increased pressure from Medicare, Medicaid, HMOs, PPOs and other third-party
payors to reduce hospital stays and to provide services, where possible, on a
less expensive outpatient basis. Gross outpatient revenue increased 6.1% from
$59,738,000 in 1993 to $63,387,000 in 1994. Outpatient revenue as a percent of
gross patient service revenue declined from 41.9% in 1993 to 38.1% in 1994, due
primarily to Champion's acquisition of Psychiatric Healthcare effective October
1, 1994. In general, psychiatric hospitals derive a greater percentage of their
gross revenue from inpatient services than do acute care hospitals. Exclusive of
acquisitions, outpatient revenue comprised 41.3% of gross patient revenue in
1994.
Provision for contractual allowances was 40.2% of gross patient service
revenue for 1994, compared to 39.2% in 1993. This increase is consistent with
industry expectations as discussed above.
Approximately 39% of gross patient revenue was attributable to Medicare in
1994 and 1993. Gross revenue attributable to Medicaid increased to 18% in 1994
compared to 12% in 1993, due primarily to Champion's acquisition of Psychiatric
Healthcare, which derives approximately 53% of its gross patient revenue from
the Medicaid program, and due to a decline in revenue attributable to private
and other payor sources at hospitals owned by Champion for the year ended
December 31, 1994.
Salaries and benefits increased 11.8% to $41,042,000 in 1994, compared to
$36,698,000 in 1993, due primarily to the inclusion of P&S for a full year in
1994 and Champion's acquisition of Psychiatric Healthcare and the AmeriHealth
Merger in the fourth quarter of 1994. As a percentage of net revenue, salary and
benefits decreased to 39.4% in 1994, compared to 40.9% in 1993, as a result of
Champion's ongoing efforts to improve staffing efficiencies in its acquired
hospitals. For hospitals owned for the year ended December 31, 1994, salary and
benefits were 37.7% of net revenues in 1994, compared to 39.4% in 1993.
The major components of other operating expenses were professional fees,
taxes (other than income), insurance, utilities and other services. Other
operating and supplies expense increased by 19.2% to $42,511,000 in 1994,
compared to $35,674,000 in 1993. Other operating and supplies expense
39
<PAGE>
increased to 40.8% of net revenue in 1994, compared to 39.7% in 1993. The
increase in the percentage of net revenue is due primarily to non-capitalizable
costs associated with Champion's acquisition activity.
Provision for bad debts was $7,812,000 in 1994, or 7.8% of net patient
service revenue, compared to $5,669,000, or 6.5%, in 1993. This 37.8% increase
is due in part to the installation of a new computer system at one of Champion's
hospitals that disrupted the hospital's billing procedures and accounts
receivable detail. The hospital determined that approximately $700,000 in
accounts receivable produced by the new system should have been charged to
allowance for uncollectible accounts. Excluding this charge, provision for bad
debts was approximately 7.1% of net patient service revenue in 1994.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $4,010,000 in 1994, compared to $
3,524,000 in 1993, an increase of $486,000, or 13.8%. The increase in
depreciation and amortization expense was due primarily to Champion's
acquisitions in 1994, Champion's ongoing capital improvement programs at its
existing hospitals and the amortization of costs associated with Champion's
issuance of the Champion Series D Notes.
Interest expense increased from $2,725,000 in 1993 to $6,375,000 in 1994,
due principally to Champion's issuance of $37,833,000 of the Champion Series D
Notes effective December 31, 1993 and its establishment of a $20,000,000 senior
bank credit facility on November 3, 1993, as well as interest expense associated
with debt assumed and/or issued in the AmeriHealth Merger and the Psychiatric
Healthcare acquisition. Interest expense also increased due to an increase in
the interest rate applicable to its senior bank credit facility (a weighted
average of approximately 7.7% and 6.5% at December 31, 1994 and 1993,
respectively).
RECENT ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER INVESTMENTS
On March 1, 1996, Champion acquired Jordan Valley from Columbia. Jordan
Valley is a 50-bed acute care hospital located in West Jordan, Utah, a suburb of
Salt Lake City. Jordan Valley was acquired in exchange for Autauga Medical
Center, an 85-bed acute care hospital, and Autauga Health Care Center, a 72-bed
skilled nursing facility, both in Prattville, Alabama (collectively, "Autauga"),
plus preliminary cash consideration paid to Columbia of approximately
$10,750,000. Cash consideration included approximately $3,750,000 for certain
net working capital components, which are subject to further adjustment and
final agreement by the parties, and reimbursement for certain capital
expenditures made previously by Columbia. The transaction did not result in a
gain or loss. The Alabama facilities were acquired as a part of the AmeriHealth
Merger on December 6, 1994.
On April 13, 1995, Champion acquired SLRMC from Columbia for approximately
$61,042,000, which included approximately $11,783,000 for certain working
capital components, resulting in a net purchase price of approximately
$49,259,000. Champion funded the asset purchase from available cash and
approximately $30,000,000 in borrowings under its senior bank credit facility.
SLRMC is comprised of a 200-bed tertiary care hospital and five clinics and is
located in Salt Lake City, Utah.
On December 21, 1994, a wholly owned subsidiary of Champion that owned
Heartland entered into the DHHS partnership with Dakota Hospital ("Dakota"), a
not-for-profit corporation that owned a 199-bed acute care hospital, in Fargo,
North Dakota. Champion and Dakota contributed their respective hospitals debt
and lien free (except for capitalized lease obligations), including certain
working capital components, and Champion contributed an additional $20,000,000
in cash, each in exchange for 50% ownership in the partnership. Champion will
receive 55% of the net income and distributable cash flow ("DCF") of the
partnership until such time as it has recovered on a cumulative basis an
additional $10,000,000 of DCF in the form of an "excess" distribution. Because
the partners through the partnership agreement and an operating agreement have
delegated substantially all management of DHHS to Champion, the authority of the
partnership's governing board is limited. Under the terms of the partnership
agreement, Champion is obligated to advance funds to the partnership to cover
any and all operating deficits of the partnership. Beginning July 1996, Dakota
has the right to require Champion to purchase its partnership interest free of
debt or liens for a cash purchase price equal to 5.5 times Dakota's pro rata
40
<PAGE>
share of earnings before depreciation, interest, income taxes and amortization,
as defined in the partnership agreement, less Dakota's pro rata share of the
partnership's long-term debt. DHHS had earnings before depreciation, interest,
income taxes and amortization of approximately $19,000,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1995. Beginning January 1998, the purchase price for Dakota's
partnership interest shall not be less than $50,000,000. Should Dakota elect to
exercise its option, Champion would likely finance the purchase through bank or
other borrowings. Under the terms of the option, Champion has 12 months to
consummate its obligations thereunder. As of December 31, 1995, Champion has
received $825,000 in cash distributions from DHHS.
INFLATION
The healthcare industry is labor intensive. Wages and other expenses are
subject to rapid escalation, especially during periods of inflation and when
shortages occur in the marketplace. In addition, suppliers attempt to pass along
increases in their costs by charging Champion higher prices. In general,
Champion's revenue increases through price increases or changes in reimbursement
levels have not kept up with cost increases. However, by expanding services and
by increasing operating efficiencies, Champion has historically been able to
substantially offset increases in such costs. In light of cost-containment
measures imposed by government agencies, private insurance companies and
managed-care plans, Champion is likely to experience continued pressure on
operating margins in the future.

STATEMENTS" UNDER THE REFORM ACT. SEE "RISK FACTORS -- FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS."
GENERAL
Paracelsus is a leading healthcare company that owns and operates acute care
and specialty hospitals and related healthcare businesses serving selected
markets in the United States. Paracelsus currently owns and operates 18 acute
care hospitals with a total of 1,685 licensed beds in California, Utah,
Tennessee, Texas, Florida, Georgia and Mississippi. Paracelsus' acute care
hospitals provide a broad array of general medical and surgical services on an
inpatient, outpatient and emergency basis. In addition, certain hospitals and
their related facilities offer rehabilitative medicine, substance abuse
treatment, psychiatric care and AIDS care. In California, Paracelsus also owns
and operates three psychiatric hospitals with 218 licensed beds, four skilled
nursing facilities with 232 licensed beds and a 60-bed rehabilitative hospital.
In addition, Paracelsus owns and operates 11 home healthcare agencies and 16
medical office buildings adjacent to certain of its hospitals. For the 12 months
ended March 31, 1996 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to acquisitions
and dispositions, Paracelsus would have had total operating revenues of $516.9
million, Adjusted EBITDA of $55.8 million and a net loss of $3.1 million. The
net loss includes an unusual charge recorded in March 1996 of $22.4 million
related to the settlement of two lawsuits ($13.2 million, net of income tax
benefit).
As a result of the Merger, Champion will become a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Company. Champion currently owns and operates five acute care hospitals with
a total of 722 licensed beds in Utah, Texas and Virginia and owns a 50% interest
in, and operates, DHHS, a partnership that owns two additional acute care
hospitals with a total of 341 licensed beds in North Dakota. Champion's acute
care hospitals generally offer the same types of services provided by
Paracelsus' acute care hospitals. Champion also owns and operates two
psychiatric hospitals with a total of 219 licensed beds in Missouri and
Louisiana. For the 12 months ended March 31, 1996 on a pro forma basis giving
effect to acquisitions and dispositions, Champion would have had net revenue of
$198.2 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $32.2 million and net income of $3.9 million.
Following the Merger, the Company will operate 31 hospitals in 11 states
including 25 acute care hospitals with 2,748 licensed beds, five psychiatric
hospitals with 437 licensed beds and a rehabilitative hospital with 60 licensed
beds. On a pro forma combined basis for the 12 months ended March 31, 1996,
after giving effect to the Offerings, the Company would have had total operating
revenues of $714.8 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $88.1 million and a net loss of
$6.7 million. The net loss includes the unusual charge related to the settlement
of two lawsuits. These pro forma combined results do not give effect to any cost
savings that management believes will be realized as a result of the Merger due
to the combination of the corporate operations of Paracelsus and Champion and
the elimination of certain corporate consulting contracts of Paracelsus. In
addition, the combined entity should benefit from economies of scale in such
areas as purchasing, marketing, information systems, risk management,
acquisitions and development, accounting, reimbursement, corporate finance and
quality assurance.
The Company believes that the Merger represents a unique opportunity to
integrate the operations of two companies that have a complementary portfolio of
hospitals. Upon completion of the Merger, 22 of the 31 hospitals owned or
operated by the Company will be located in markets where a hospital or hospital
network operated by the Company is a preeminent provider. On a pro forma
combined basis (excluding the PHC Salt Lake Hospital and the two hospitals owned
by DHHS), the remaining 19 hospitals would have accounted for approximately 71%
and 89% of the 28 remaining hospital operating revenues and Adjusted EBITDA,
respectively, for the 12 months ended March 31, 1996.
Following the Merger, the Company believes that it will be better positioned
to implement its business strategy due to its greater scale and diversity of
operations, expanded geographic presence and enhanced access to the public
capital markets and other financing sources. The Company also
42
<PAGE>
believes that it will benefit from the addition to Paracelsus' management team
of three key Champion executives who, following the Merger, will have primary
responsibility for day to day management of the Company. These Champion
executives have an average of 29 years of hospital industry experience and a
proven track record in operating and growing publicly held hospital companies.
Over the past five years, these executives grew Champion's net revenue at an
annual growth rate of 62.0% from $24.3 million in 1991 to $167.5 million in 1995
while improving its Adjusted EBITDA margins from 9.4% in 1991 to 15.8% in 1995
and 19.2% for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company's strategic objective is to establish each of its hospitals or
hospital networks as the provider of choice in its market. To accomplish this,
the Company first seeks to establish a presence in geographic locations that are
best suited to developing a preeminent market position. These locations
primarily include small to mid-sized markets with more favorable demographics
and lower levels of penetration by managed care plans and alternative niche
competitors than larger metropolitan areas. Moreover, the competing hospitals in
the Company's target markets frequently will be not-for-profit facilities which
the Company believes have higher cost structures than its hospitals. Second, the
Company focuses on implementing operating strategies developed by the Company
for positioning each of its hospitals or hospital networks as providers of
measurably higher quality and lower cost healthcare services than competing
providers. The key elements of the Company's operating strategies are as
follows:
EXPAND STRATEGICALLY THROUGH SELECTED ACQUISITIONS
The Company plans to continue to pursue expansion opportunities through the
strategic acquisition of hospitals and complementary healthcare businesses in
existing or new markets. The Company has demonstrated this strategy most
recently by successfully acquiring four hospitals and a home health agency in
the Salt Lake City market. The Company's primary criteria for its target markets
include: (i) a service area population of between 30,000 and 500,000; (ii)
favorable demographics in terms of population growth, age profile, employment
rates, business climate, economic activity and family income levels; (iii) low
levels of managed care penetration; and (iv) limited competition from other
hospitals and alternative healthcare providers. The Company targets for
acquisition those hospitals that have the following characteristics: (a) a
stable market position with potential for improvement; (b) an appropriate range
and depth of medical services or the capacity to add needed services; (c) a
favorable reputation in the community; (d) current financial underperformance
due to an excessive cost structure; (e) a sufficient base of capable, high
quality physicians; and (f) no required extraordinary capital investment. The
Company believes that its primary sources of acquisitions will be unaffiliated
not-for-profit hospitals and facilities being divested by hospital systems for
strategic, regulatory or performance reasons.
INCREASE MARKET PENETRATION
The Company seeks to increase the market penetration of its hospitals by
offering a full range of hospital and related healthcare services and by gaining
market share from local competitors by providing measurably higher quality and
lower cost services. The Company will selectively add new services such as
obstetrics, open-heart surgery and skilled nursing beds at its hospitals and,
when appropriate, invest in new technologies. For example, this strategy has
been sucessfully demonstrated by the addition of obstetrics programs at each of
The Medical Center of Mesquite and Westwood Medical Center during the past 12
months. The Company will also develop complementary healthcare businesses such
as primary care clinics, home health agencies and rehabilitative clinics to
augment the service capabilities of its existing hospitals and enable the
delivery of care in the most cost effective and medically appropriate setting.
In addition, over the past 24 months, the Company has acquired or established
five home health agencies that cover 26 counties in Tennessee, providing a large
referral base for the Company's four hospitals in that market. In some cases,
the Company may also acquire or merge with other providers or establish
alliances with such providers through affiliation agreements, joint venture
arrangements or partnerships. Furthermore, since physicians still direct the
majority of
43
<PAGE>
hospital admissions, the Company focuses on supporting and retaining existing
physicians and attracting other qualified physicians in existing or underserved
medical specialties. The Company may either affiliate, joint venture or partner
with physician practices or, in selected cases, manage or acquire such physician
practices.
ESTABLISH A COMPETITIVE COST ADVANTAGE
The Company seeks to position each of its hospitals as the low cost provider
in its market by monitoring and controlling fixed and variable operating
expenses. Champion's executives have demonstrated an ability to reduce costs as
indicated by the improvement in Champion's Adjusted EBITDA margins from 9.4% in
1991 to 15.8% in 1995 and 19.2% for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The
Company believes that a low cost provider is better able to succeed in the
current healthcare environment by aggressively pricing its managed care
contracts and direct employer arrangements and by maintaining profitability
under fixed payment arrangements. The Company focuses on the following major
areas for cost control:
LABOR COSTS. Salaries and benefits represent the single largest
component of hospital operating expenses. The Company seeks to reduce
labor costs by (i) implementing staffing standards and adjusting
staffing according to changes in volume and patient needs; (ii)
eliminating unnecessary levels of management; and (iii) increasing the
productivity of skilled employees by shifting certain lower skill tasks
to lower paid personnel. Champion's executives have reduced salaries,
wages and benefits as a percentage of net revenue at Champion's
hospitals (including DHHS) from 38.2% in 1994 to 37.9% in 1995 and 35.4%
for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
SUPPLY COSTS. The Company seeks to realize savings on medical supplies,
the second largest component of hospital operating expenses, by (i)
standardizing high volume products; (ii) participating in purchasing
groups; (iii) monitoring supply usage; and (iv) otherwise taking
advantage of volume purchasing to achieve better pricing.
CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS. The Company evaluates whether savings can be
realized by renegotiating or eliminating existing third-party
management, physician, maintenance, supply and other contracts.
MARGINAL SERVICES. The Company regularly reviews all programs and
services at its hospitals to determine whether any such programs or
services should be discontinued or reduced because they are
underutilized or unprofitable and have no strategic benefit.
UTILIZATION MANAGEMENT. The Company has developed a proprietary
utilization management program designed to help monitor and manage
clinical resources by reviewing both patient lengths of stay and
physician treatment protocols in order to decrease the overall cost of
care. The program, which includes the use of clinical pathways developed
in conjunction with the medical staffs of the Company's hospitals, helps
assure that physicians consistently render the most medically
appropriate and cost effective regimen of care. The program has been
implemented in six of the Company's hospitals and is expected to be
implemented in its remaining hospitals over the next year.
IMPLEMENT A COMPETITIVE QUALITY ADVANTAGE
The Company believes that preventing errors in the treatment process can
improve quality and lower the cost of care by reducing the risk of adverse
events to patients and the consequential costs of such events. For the past two
years, the Company has piloted a proprietary program in four of its hospitals
designed to identify and measure the incidence of patient treatment errors in
225 separate clinical categories. The Company also believes that the majority of
treatment errors are preventable and often result from systemic problems such as
a lack of standardized policies, procedures and training. The Company believes
that its pilot program in four hospitals has demonstrated that reductions in the
incidence of treatment errors can occur as a result of focusing hospital
employees on monitoring errors, training employees in standardized systems and
procedures and otherwise taking corrective steps to reduce and eliminate
deficiencies in the care process. The Company believes the
44
<PAGE>
capability to quantify data regarding the quality of care in its hospitals will
enable the Company to reduce the cost of care and will enhance the ability of
its hospitals to win and profit from managed care contracts. The Company intends
to introduce its proprietary program in all of its hospitals as soon as possible
following the consummation of the Merger.
DEVELOP A COMPETITIVE SERVICE ADVANTAGE
The Company believes that bureaucratic and impersonalized customer service
is a historical structural deficiency within the hospital industry caused by
service systems, policies and procedures that are designed for the convenience
of physicians and hospitals rather than patients, payors and employers. For the
past year, the Company has assembled a task force of hospital and corporate
personnel who have been devoted to developing a proprietary customer service
system that will become a prototype for all the Company's hospitals. The Company
believes this customer service system will differentiate its hospitals and
facilities from those of its competitors and provide a competitive advantage.
The objectives of this initiative are to (i) identify those aspects of customer
service most in need of streamlining and revamping to create "user-friendly"
systems in areas such as billing information and admission and emergency room
registration and processing; (ii) review existing hospital policies, procedures
and practices that serve as barriers to personalized customer service; (iii)
establish quantitative performance targets and develop monitoring systems for
measuring and reporting results and progress toward targets; (iv) develop a
customer service questionnaire to quantify levels of customer satisfaction and
areas of dissatisfaction; and (v) conduct training of hospital personnel in the
customer service system. The Company currently expects that it will begin
introducing its customer service system on a pilot basis in several of its
hospitals during the first quarter of 1997.
REQUIRE LOCAL MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTABILITY
The provision of high quality healthcare services is primarily a local
business, and the Company's business strategy and operating programs emphasize
local management initiative, responsibility and accountability combined with
corporate support and oversight. The Company establishes targets for various
categories of operating expenses for each hospital and tracks operating
efficiency on a daily basis. The Company also requires each of its hospitals to
provide forecasts on financial and operating performance for the month and
conducts in-depth monthly operating reviews with each local management team to
establish and ensure management discipline and accountability. In addition,
bonuses for key operating executives of the Company are in part based upon
margin improvement and performance. These actions are intended to focus
operating management on optimizing operating efficiencies.
OPERATIONS
The Company seeks to create a local healthcare system in each of its markets
that offers a continuum of inpatient, outpatient, emergency and alternative care
options. In many such markets, the Company will establish its acute care
hospitals as the hub of a local provider system that can include skilled nursing
facilities, home health agencies, clinics, physician practices and medical
office buildings. These operations are described below.
ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS
The Company owns and operates 25 acute care hospitals (including those owned
by DHHS) with a total of 2,748 licensed beds in nine states. Each of the
Company's acute care hospitals provides a broad array of general medical and
surgical services on an inpatient, outpatient and emergency basis, including
some or all of the following: intensive and cardiac care, diagnostic services,
radiological services and obstetrics on an inpatient basis and ambulatory
surgery, laboratory and radiology services on an outpatient basis. Certain
hospitals also provide comprehensive psychiatric services. The Company owns a
50% interest in and is responsible for the operations of DHHS, which owns two
acute care hospitals in Fargo, North Dakota.
45
<PAGE>
SPECIALTY HOSPITALS
The Company owns and operates five psychiatric hospitals with 437 licensed
beds and one rehabilitative hospital with 60 licensed beds in three states.
Three of the psychiatric hospitals and the rehabilitative hospital are located
in California markets where the Company has acute care hospitals. The
psychiatric hospitals provide child, adolescent and adult comprehensive
psychiatric and chemical dependency treatment programs on an inpatient and
outpatient basis.
SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES
The Company owns and operates four skilled nursing facilities with a total
of 232 licensed beds in California that provide 24-hour nursing care,
principally for the elderly, by registered or licensed nurses and related
medical services prescribed by the patient's physician.
HOME HEALTH AGENCIES
The Company provides home health services through 15 of its hospitals
(including the two DHHS hospitals) in five states. These services include home
nursing, infusion therapy, physical therapy, respiratory services and other
rehabilitative services.
CLINICS
The Company owns and operates a number of stand-alone clinics, particularly
in rural areas. Most of these clinics are primary care clinics that operate as
physician offices where the physicians are employed by or are under contract
with one of the Company's hospitals in that market. The clinics serve to
complement the Company's acute care hospitals in their respective markets by
allowing the Company to provide a wider range of services in optimal settings
and providing an opportunity to attract patients to the Company's hospitals.
PHYSICIAN ARRANGEMENTS
The Company owns a majority interest in and operates five physician joint
ventures. Three of the joint ventures have nonexclusive use of office space and
equipment in certain hospitals which they use to provide specialized medical and
surgical services to patients. In all cases, the minority interests in the joint
ventures are held directly or indirectly by a physician or a group of
physicians. Additionally, several of the Company's hospitals have assisted with
the formation of and participate in physician hospital organizations or
management services organizations.
MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS
The Company owns, leases or manages 22 medical office buildings located
adjacent to certain of its hospitals.
SELECTED MARKET STRATEGIES
Key to the success of the Company is its ability to adjust the
implementation of its various operating strategies to the unique features of
each market it enters. The following are four examples of how the Company is
currently implementing its strategies under diverse market conditions.
CONTRACTING WITH MANAGED CARE PROVIDERS IN A MAJOR URBAN MARKET
The broad market in Utah encompasses a population of 1,800,000 across the
90-mile corridor known as the Wasatch Front. The Company has focused it efforts
around Salt Lake County, which has a population base of approximately 800,000,
or 43% of the state's population, where four of the Company's five Utah
hospitals are located. This area has favorable demographics in terms of
employment, age and family income levels. Managed care plans have achieved one
of the highest levels of penetration in the United States in providing
healthcare coverage to the target population base. To be successful in this
market requires that providers be able to demonstrate to managed care payors the
ability to deliver a continuum of healthcare services on a cost competitive
basis that is geographically accessible to the covered lives.
Through its network of five hospitals, a home health agency, a skilled
nursing facility and a number of outpatient and physician clinics, the Company
is creating an integrated provider system
46
<PAGE>
that provides both extensive geographic coverage and a full range of healthcare
services. In order to increase its profitability under its managed care
contracts, the Company is implementing several cost saving strategies. The
Company has already achieved cost savings at its SLRMC hospital through
implementing staffing standards and renegotiating existing contractual
arrangements with a variety of service providers. These same procedures will be
rapidly implemented in the four recently acquired hospitals in this market.
Furthermore, because the four hospitals and related clinics are in the same
county (with the fifth hospital located in an adjacent county but within the
total market area), the Company will have the opportunity to gain operational
efficiencies by sharing and combining services to reduce operating costs. In the
Utah market, the Company currently has contracts with FHP International Corp.
("FHP") that cover approximately 102,000 capitated lives and 13,000 PPO lives
and contracts with CIGNA, United Health and Blue Cross of Utah that cover a
total of approximately 220,000 non-capitated lives.
CONSOLIDATING A MID-SIZE MARKET
The combined Fargo, North Dakota and Moorehead, Minnesota market has a
population of approximately 160,000 and an annual population growth rate of
approximately 4%. This market also has favorable demographics in terms of
employment, age and family income levels. This market is characterized by a low
level of managed care penetration with most of the healthcare payors being
traditional health insurance companies.
Historically, four not-for-profit hospitals had competed for patients in
this market. In 1992, the Company acquired two of the hospitals that were
underperforming financially. The Company immediately consolidated the facilities
into one hospital, eliminated duplicative services, reduced labor costs by
implementing productivity standards and eliminating excess levels of employees,
discontinued marginal services and sold the physical plant of the other
hospital. In addition to these actions, the Company funded needed capital
expenditures and strengthened relationships with physicians in order to enhance
its competitiveness within the market.
In 1994, the Company determined that it could extend its presence as well as
realize additional cost savings by forging a partnership with another hospital
in the market. The resulting DHHS partnership, which the Company manages, is now
a preeminent provider and has strengthened its competitive position against the
remaining hospital, which is the largest provider in the market. Through this
partnership, the Company has been able to achieve further cost savings by
eliminating burdensome contracts, consolidating certain services and eliminating
duplicative or otherwise marginal services. In order to further develop an
integrated healthcare delivery system in this market, the Company has acquired a
home health agency and opened a skilled nursing facility.
CONSTRUCTING A NEW FACILITY TO ENTER A LESS COMPETITIVE MARKET
The Midland, Texas market includes a population of approximately 120,000
with favorable demographics and a very low level of managed care penetration.
The Company viewed the Midland market as an opportunity to compete against a
large not-for-profit hospital that was not responsive to changing market forces
and generally had not been faced with significant competition from other
providers. Although Midland had been served by two hospitals for several years,
the not-for-profit hospital was by far the dominant provider.
In 1992, the Company acquired the other, smaller 60-bed facility, which had
an outdated and deteriorating physical plant and offered a limited range of
services, with the intention of closing the smaller facility and building a new
state of the art replacement hospital that could more effectively compete with
the not-for-profit hospital. The Company's newly constructed 101-bed Westwood
Medical Center ("Westwood"), which includes a physician office building and a
modern ambulatory diagnostic and surgery center, opened in October 1995, and it
continues to gain market share by capitalizing on the advantages of having new
facilities and technology, providing a broad array of high quality healthcare
services, focusing on patient service and cultivating physician relationships.
The Company believes Westwood has inherent cost efficiencies that have resulted
from it being a newly constructed facility.
47
<PAGE>
BUILDING A REFERRAL BASE ACROSS A LARGE RURAL REGION
In Tennessee, the Company has built an integrated network providing a broad
array of healthcare services that covers 26 counties with a combined population
of approximately 900,000. The network is comprised of five home health agencies
with 20 satellite offices, which, in total, perform approximately 500,000 home
health visits annually, and seven rural health clinics. This network has the
effect of creating a large referral base for the Company's four hospitals in
this market and has allowed the Company to become one of the more significant
providers of healthcare in rural Tennessee.
RECENT TRANSACTIONS
ACQUISITION OF PHC SALT LAKE HOSPITAL
On May 17, 1996, Paracelsus acquired the PHC Salt Lake Hospital, a 125-bed
acute care hospital, including its surrounding campus, in Salt Lake City, Utah
from FHP for $70.0 million in cash. Paracelsus financed the acquisition of the
PHC Salt Lake Hospital with borrowings under the Existing Paracelsus Credit
Facility. Prior to the acquisition, the PHC Salt Lake Hospital was operated by
FHP, an HMO, principally to provide care to its HMO members. Accordingly, FHP
operated the PHC Salt Lake Hospital as a captive cost center for the sole
benefit of FHP and not as a business managed separately for profit. In
connection with the acquisition of the PHC Salt Lake Hospital, Paracelsus
entered into a 15-year exclusive provider agreement (the "FHP Exclusive Provider
Agreement") under which FHP will pay Paracelsus stated percentages of its
monthly HMO member premiums to guarantee FHP HMO members access to inpatient
care at all Paracelsus-operated hospitals in Salt Lake City, Utah, including the
PHC Salt Lake Hospital. Based upon information provided to Paracelsus by FHP, as
of March 31, 1996, FHP had approximately 102,000 covered lives who would be
subject to the FHP Exclusive Provider Agreement. In addition, the PHC Salt Lake
Hospital will continue to provide access to approximately 13,000 additional
covered lives under an FHP PPO contract under which FHP will make a
fee-for-service payment to Paracelsus.
The Company intends to change significantly the patient base of the PHC Salt
Lake Hospital. In addition to the FHP HMO and PPO members, the PHC Salt Lake
Hospital will enter into contracts with other insurance carriers and managed
care organizations and otherwise seek to serve the patients in its market. In
addition, the PHC Salt Lake Hospital will provide reference lab services and
emergency room services which are anticipated to generate additional revenues.
To date, Paracelsus has entered into non-capitated provider contracts to provide
services at the PHC Salt Lake Hospital with CIGNA, United Health and Blue Cross
("other payors"). Under those contracts, based on public disclosures made by
such other payors as of March 31, 1996, the Company believes that the PHC Salt
Lake Hospital will provide services to approximately 220,000 additional covered
lives. As a result of the expansion and diversification of the patient base, the
Company anticipates that over time a substantially reduced portion of the PHC
Salt Lake Hospital's total inpatient care will be comprised of services provided
to FHP members, with additional revenues generated through admissions by
independent practicing physicians and patients covered by other insurance
carriers, managed care organizations and the Medicare and Medicaid program.
The Company believes that the PHC Salt Lake Hospital acquisition and the
revenues anticipated to be received under the FHP Exclusive Provider Agreement
will complement the hospitals owned by Champion and the Columbia Hospitals (as
defined below) recently acquired by Paracelsus from Columbia. The Company does
not believe that the historical financial statements of the PHC Salt Lake
Hospital are relevant because the future operations will include services
provided to the general public as compared to its previous operations as a
captive cost center, which served only FHP members. As a result, the PHC Salt
Lake Hospital acquisition has been accounted for as an acquisition of assets.
ACQUISITION OF COLUMBIA HOSPITALS
On May 17, 1996, Paracelsus acquired Pioneer Valley Hospital ("Pioneer"), a
139-bed hospital in West Valley City, Utah; Davis Hospital and Medical Center
("Davis") a 120-bed hospital in Layton, Utah; and Santa Rosa Medical Center
("Santa Rosa"), a 129-bed hospital in Milton, Florida (Pioneer,
48
<PAGE>
Davis and Santa Rosa, collectively, the "Columbia Hospitals") from Columbia. The
consideration for the Columbia Hospitals consisted of $38.5 million in cash and
the exchange of Paracelsus' Peninsula Medical Center, a 119-bed hospital located
in Ormond Beach, Florida ("Peninsula"); Elmwood Medical Center ("Elmwood"), a
135-bed hospital located in Jefferson, Louisiana; and Halstead Hospital
("Halstead"), a 190-bed hospital located in Halstead, Kansas (Peninsula, Elmwood
and Halstead, collectively, the "Exchanged Hospitals"). Paracelsus also
purchased the real property of Elmwood and Halstead from a real estate
investment trust ("REIT"), exchanged the Elmwood and Halstead real property for
Pioneer's real property and sold the Pioneer real property to the REIT (the
"Real Property Purchase and Sale Transaction"). The acquisition of the Columbia
Hospitals was accounted for as a purchase transaction. Paracelsus financed the
cash portion of the acquisition of the Columbia Hospitals from borrowings under
the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility.
OTHER TRANSACTIONS
On March 1, 1996, Champion acquired from Columbia, Jordan Valley, a 50-bed
acute care hospital located in West Jordan, Utah, a suburb of Salt Lake City.
Champion acquired Jordan Valley in exchange for Autauga, an 85-bed acute care
hospital and a 72-bed skilled nursing facility, plus preliminary cash
consideration paid to Columbia of $10.8 million. The cash consideration included
$3.8 million for certain net working capital components, which are subject to
adjustment and final settlement by the parties, and reimbursement of certain
capital expenditures made previously by the seller. The transaction did not
result in a gain or loss. The Autauga facilities were acquired as part of
Champion's acquisition of AmeriHealth on December 6, 1994, through the
AmeriHealth Merger.

COMPETITION
The competition for patients among hospitals and other healthcare providers
has intensified in recent years as hospital occupancy rates have declined. This
decline is attributable to several factors, including cost containment
pressures, changing medical technology, changing government regulations and
utilization management. Such factors have prompted new competitive strategies by
hospitals and other healthcare providers. Among these strategies is an
increasing emphasis on outpatient healthcare delivery procedures (E.G.,
outpatient surgery, diagnostic centers and home healthcare), which tend to
eliminate or reduce the length of hospital stays.
The Company believes that one of the most significant factors in the
competitive position of a hospital is the number and quality of the physicians
affiliated with such hospital, because physicians determine the majority of
hospital admissions. Although physicians may at any time terminate their
51
<PAGE>
affiliation with a hospital operated by the Company, the Company seeks to retain
physicians of varied specialties on its hospitals' medical staffs and to attract
other qualified physicians. The Company believes that physicians refer patients
to a hospital primarily on the basis of the quality of services it renders to
patients and physicians, the quality of other physicians on the medical staff,
the location of the hospital and the quality of the hospital's facilities,
equipment and employees. However, physicians affiliated with certain managed
care providers may be precluded from utilizing the Company's facilities for
their patients, or referring patients to doctors using the Company's facilities,
if the facility or referred doctors are not currently contracting with such
managed care providers.
The competitive position of a hospital is also affected by its management's
ability to negotiate service contracts with purchasers of group healthcare
services, including employers, PPOs and HMOs. PPOs and HMOs attempt to direct
and control the use of hospital services through "managed care" programs and to
obtain discounts from hospitals' established charges, and, in return, hospitals
acquire access to a large number of potential patients. In addition, employers
and traditional health insurers are increasingly interested in containing costs
through negotiations with hospitals for managed care programs and discounts from
established charges. Of importance to a hospital's competitive position is its
ability to obtain contracts with PPOs and HMOs and other organizations that
finance healthcare. Managed care providers are increasingly contracting with
hospitals or networks of hospitals that can provide a full range of services in
a particular market. Accordingly, the Company is attempting to join or establish
hospital networks and to increase services to compete for contracts in such
markets.
MEDICARE, MEDICAID AND OTHER REVENUE
GENERAL
The Company receives payment for services rendered to patients from private
insurers, managed care providers, the Federal government under the Medicare
program, state governments under their respective Medicaid programs and directly
from patients. The table below sets forth the approximate percentages of the
historical gross operating revenues derived by the facilities of the Company and
of DHHS from Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance and all other payors for
the periods indicated.

MEDICARE
The Medicare program is a Federal healthcare program created by the Social
Security Act Amendments of 1965. Each of the Company's hospitals is certified as
a provider of services under the Medicare program. Revenues attributable to
Medicare patients represented 45% and 46% of the Company's historical gross
operating revenues in fiscal 1995 and in the six months ended March 31, 1996,
respectively. The Medicare program has changed significantly during the past
several years, and these changes have had and will continue to have a
significant effect on the Company's hospitals. In addition, the requirements for
certification in the Medicare program are subject to change, and, in order to
remain qualified for the program, it may be necessary for the Company to make
changes from time to time in its facilities, equipment, personnel and services.
Although the Company intends to continue its participation in the Medicare
program, there is no assurance that it will continue to qualify for
participation.
Pursuant to the Social Security Act Amendments of 1983 and subsequent budget
reconciliations and modifications, Congress adopted a prospective payment system
("PPS") under which a hospital is paid a predetermined amount for each Medicare
inpatient discharge, depending on the patient's diagnosis and related
procedures. Generally, under the PPS, if the costs of meeting the health needs
of the patient are greater than the predetermined payment rate, the hospital
must absorb the loss. Conversely, if the cost of the services provided is less
than the predetermined payment, the hospital retains the difference.
Prior to 1988, Medicare reimbursed hospitals for 100% of their share of
capital related costs, which included depreciation, interest, taxes and
insurance related to plant and equipment for inpatient hospital services. The
reimbursed rate was reduced thereafter to 85% of costs. Federal regulations
effective October 1, 1991 created a PPS for inpatient capital costs to be phased
in over a 10-year transition period from a hospital-based rate to a fully
Federal payment rate or a per-case rate. Such a method of capital cost payment
could have a material adverse effect on the operating revenues of the Company.
Recent legislation has reduced projected increases for Medicare payments to
providers for hospital outpatient services. The payment rate for hospital
outpatient surgery and hospital radiology services is limited to a blend of 42%
of reasonable costs and 58% of Medicare's prospective rates. The payment rate
for other outpatient diagnostic services is limited to a blend of 50% of
reasonable costs and 50% of the prospective rates. Furthermore, studies are
currently in process at the Health Care Financing Administration (the "HCFA")
that propose converting payment for all outpatient services (including home
health services), inpatient psychiatric services and skilled nursing care to a
prospective payment system. Congress is presently considering further
significant reductions in projected increases in Medicare payments to providers.
The financial effect of these changes may have a negative impact on the Company,
although the exact method of implementing these reductions and whether a
prospective payment system for outpatient services or inpatient psychiatric and
home health services and skilled nursing care will be adopted are not yet known.
Pursuant to the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990, Congress revised
the Gramm-Rudman budget and sequestration process and established a
"pay-as-you-go" system for entitlement programs, including Medicare. Legislation
increasing entitlements and/or reducing revenues must be deficit-neutral (I.E.,
it must pay for itself by a reduction in entitlement spending elsewhere or
additional revenues). Legislation violating the pay-as-you-go principle would
trigger a sequestration of entitlement program funds in the same amount that
such legislation added to the deficit. Up to a maximum of 4% of Medicare program
funds would be included among those sequestered. Medicaid program funds,
however, continue to be exempt from sequestration. Payment reductions under the
revised sequestration process were not implemented in fiscal years 1993, 1994 or
1995. If implemented in future years, these reductions could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's
53
<PAGE>
operating revenues. However, because the actual amount of the reduction for any
fiscal year may vary according to the Federal deficit, the financial impact of
the revised process on the Company cannot be predicted.
The Medicare program makes additional payments to those healthcare providers
that serve a disproportionate share of low income patients. The qualification
and funding for disproportionate share payments can vary by fiscal year.
Disproportionate share payments for future years could vary significantly from
historical payments.
Within the statutory framework of the Medicare program, there are
substantial areas subject to administrative rulings, interpretations and
discretion that may affect payments made under the program. In addition, the
Federal government might, in the future, reduce the funds available for, or
require more stringent utilization of, hospital facilities, either of which
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's future income.
MEDICAID PROGRAM
Medicaid (Title XIX of the Social Security Act) is a program of medical
assistance that is administered by each state. Each of the Company's hospitals
is certified for participation in the various state Medicaid programs, although
not all of the Company's hospitals have chosen to participate. In fiscal 1995
and for the six months ended March 31, 1996 on a combined historical basis the
Company's facilities derived approximately 13% and 14%, respectively, of their
gross operating revenues from Medicaid programs. Payment for inpatient services
varies by state, but a majority of states pay either a fixed, pre-determined
daily rate or a fixed payment for each type of service.
The Medicaid program also makes additional payments to those healthcare
providers that serve a disproportionate share of low income patients. The
methodology used to determine qualification and funding will vary by state. The
qualification and funding for disproportionate share payments can vary by fiscal
year. Disproportionate share payments for future years could vary significantly
from historical payments.
REGULATION AND OTHER FACTORS
GENERAL
All hospitals are subject to compliance with various Federal, state and
local statutes, regulations and ordinances, and receive periodic inspection by
state and local licensing agencies, as well as by nongovernmental organizations
acting under contract or pursuant to Federal law, to review compliance with
standards of medical care and requirements concerning facilities, equipment,
staffing, cleanliness and related matters. The Company's hospitals must comply
with the licensing requirements of state and local health agencies, as well as
the requirements of municipal building codes, health codes and local fire
departments. All of the Company's hospitals have obtained the licenses that the
Company believes are necessary under applicable law for the operation of the
hospitals. In addition, all of the Company's hospitals are presently accredited
by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations ("JCAHO")
except for one rural hospital in Georgia, which is surveyed annually by state
regulatory authorities.
CERTIFICATE OF NEED REQUIREMENTS
In recent years, many states have enacted legislation regulating the
establishment or expansion of hospital facilities and services. In certain
states, prior to the construction of new hospitals, the expansion of old
hospitals or the introduction of certain new services in existing hospitals, one
must obtain a CON by demonstrating to either state or local authorities, or
both, that it is in compliance with plans adopted by such authorities, or
receive an exemption from CON requirements by demonstrating that the project is
covered by statutory and regulatory exemption provisions. This requirement can
increase the cost (in time and money) of a project, and may affect the
feasibility of some projects. Of the eleven states in which the Company
operates, a CON is required in Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi,
Missouri, Tennessee and Virginia.
54
<PAGE>
HOSPITAL INSPECTIONS AND REVIEWS
JCAHO regularly conducts an on-site review and inspection of every hospital
seeking to obtain or maintain its accreditation. Hospitals accredited by JCAHO
are deemed to be in compliance with the standards for participation in the
Medicare program, although Medicare can conduct its own compliance reviews.
During fiscal 1995, three Paracelsus facilities had full JCAHO reviews. All
such facilities maintained full three-year accreditation. In addition to the
JCAHO inspections and inspections conducted by certain state and local
regulatory authorities, the HCFA, generally in response to specific complaints
from patients but also occasionally on a random basis, causes hospitals
participating in the Medicare program to be inspected. Since fiscal 1995, three
facilities had state regulatory surveys, some of which may have been done on
behalf of the HCFA, and all of those facilities remained eligible to participate
in the Medicare program. In addition, all of Champion's hospitals are accredited
by JCAHO, including Champion's newly constructed hospital in Midland, Texas,
which received its provisional accreditation in the first quarter of 1996.
REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
The operation of healthcare facilities is subject to Federal, state and
local regulations. Facilities are subject to periodic inspection by state
licensing agencies to determine whether the standards of medical care provided
therein comply with licensing standards. The Company believes that all of its
healthcare facilities are in substantial compliance with such Federal, state and
local regulations and licensing requirements.
OTHER FEDERAL STATUTES AND REGULATIONS
Effective January 1, 1995, the so-called Stark II law bars physicians from
referring Medicare and Medicaid patients to 11 designated health services in
which the physicians have an investment or compensation arrangement. The HCFA
has not set a target date for proposing the Stark II regulations, but it finally
issued the so-called Stark I regulations on August 14, 1995. (Stark I bans
physicians from referring Medicare and Medicaid patients to clinical
laboratories in which they have a financial interest.) The HCFA has stated that
the Stark I regulations will also be applicable to Stark II.
The HCFA plans to require healthcare entities, including hospitals, to sign
a declaration form in which they promise not to bill Medicare for patients
referred by a physician who has a prohibited financial relationship with the
entity. The HCFA will keep those forms on file. Physicians who own an interest
in a designated health service will also be asked to sign a declaration form
saying they will not refer Medicare patients to that service. The entity will
keep the physician forms on file, and the HCFA will check to see that entities
are keeping the forms.
In addition, the Antifraud Amendments provide criminal penalties for
individuals or entities participating in the Medicare or Medicaid programs who
knowingly and willfully offer, pay, solicit or receive remuneration in order to
induce referrals for items or services reimbursed under such programs. In
addition to felony criminal penalties, the Social Security Act also establishes
the intermediate sanction of excluding violators from Medicare or Medicaid
participation. The HHS has promulgated regulations that define certain Safe
Harbors for arrangements that would not violate the Antifraud Amendments. Any
venture that meets all the conditions of an applicable Safe Harbor will be
exempt both from prosecution and exclusion under the Antifraud Amendments.
None of the Company's joint ventures with physician investors falls within
any of the defined Safe Harbors. The fact that the terms of a venture do not
satisfy applicable Safe Harbor criteria, however, does not mean that the venture
is illegal but does mean that the venture may be subject to review. Under the
Company's joint venture arrangements, physician investors are not and will not
be under any obligation to refer or admit their patients, including Medicare or
Medicaid beneficiaries, to receive services at the Company's facilities, nor are
distributions to those physician investors contingent upon or calculated with
reference to referral by the physician investors. On the basis thereof, the
Company does not believe the ownership of interests in or receipt of
distributions from its joint ventures would
55
<PAGE>
be construed to be knowing and willful payments to the physician investors to
induce them to refer patients in violation of the Antifraud Amendments. There
can be no assurance, however, that government officials charged with
responsibility for enforcing the prohibitions of the Antifraud Amendments will
not assert that one or more of the Company's joint ventures are in violation of
the Antifraud Amendments. To date, none of the Company's current joint ventures
has been reviewed by any governmental authority for compliance with the
Antifraud Amendments.
STATE STATUTES AND REGULATIONS
Each of the states in which the Company does business has a state medical
practice act that prohibits unprofessional conduct of physicians, including
failure to conform to the ethical standards of the profession. A physician who
is found to have violated a state medical practice act may be subject to
disciplinary action up to and including loss of the physician's license to
practice medicine. Certain states as well as Federal regulations require
disclosure by physicians of an investment interest in a facility to which the
physician refers, and most state medical associations require such disclosure to
meet ethical standards. Moreover, the American Medical Association's ethical
opinions generally proscribe as unprofessional any conduct or transaction by a
physician that places the physician's own financial interest above the welfare
of the physician's patients or results in the provision of unnecessary services
or overutilization of services or facilities. The ethical opinions also require
that a physician disclose any ownership interest to his or her patient prior to
referral.
Certain states in which the Company operates also have laws that prohibit
payments to physicians for patient referrals. These statutes may involve
criminal as well as civil penalties which may impact the operations at the
Company's facilities. The scope of these laws is broad, and little precedent
exists for their interpretation or enforcement. The Company monitors
developments in this area of law and will from time to time determine what steps
are necessary to ensure that patients at its facilities receive required
disclosures, and it will, accordingly, revise disclosure requirements for its
facilities and for physician limited partners as necessary.
Some states have also enacted their own version of Stark II prohibiting
physician ownership in designated health services. Although the Company believes
that its joint ventures have been structured to comply with all applicable
Federal and state laws, no assurance can be given that the ventures will not be
reviewed and challenged by enforcement authorities empowered to do so or that
the ventures, if challenged, would prevail. No documents or agreements have been
challenged by any regulatory authorities alleging that distributions to any
joint venture's partners violate any governmental or ethical prohibitions
against illegal remuneration arrangements, kickbacks, commissions, bonuses or
rebates.
HEALTHCARE REFORM LEGISLATION
Federal and state legislators continue to consider legislation that could
significantly impact Medicare, Medicaid and other government funding of health
care costs. Initiatives currently before Congress, if enacted, would
significantly reduce payments under various government programs, including,
among others, payments to disproportionate share and teaching hospitals. A
reduction in these payments would adversely affect net revenue and operating
margins at certain of the Company's hospitals. The Company is unable to predict
what legislation, if any, will be enacted at the Federal and state level in the
future or what effect such legislation might have on the Company's financial
position, results of operations or liquidity.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The Company is subject to various Federal, state and local statutes and
ordinances regulating the discharge of materials into the environment. The
Company's management does not believe that the Company will be required to
expend any material amounts in order to comply with these laws and regulations
or that compliance will materially affect its capital expenditure earnings or
competitive position.

<PAGE>
MEDICAL STAFF AND EMPLOYEES
At March 31, 1996, approximately 3,100 licensed physicians were members of
the medical staffs of the Company's hospitals. Many of these professionals also
serve on the staffs of other nearby competing hospitals. Approximately 270
physicians were under contract with the Company's hospitals at March 31, 1996,
primarily to staff emergency rooms, to provide ancillary services and to serve
in other support capacities. As of March 31, 1996, the Company had approximately
9,300 employees, of which approximately 1,300 were covered by collective
bargaining agreements.
Hollywood Community Hospital, Lancaster Community Hospital, Chico Community
Hospital and University Convalescent Hospital are the Company's only facilities
with employees represented by unions. The Company believes that its relationship
with its employees is satisfactory.
As of March 31, 1996, DHHS had approximately 1,400 employees. Approximately
170 physicians were active members of the medical staff, many of whom also serve
on the staffs of competing hospitals, and approximately 25 physicians were under
contract to staff the emergency room and serve in support capacities. None of
DHHS' employees is covered by a collective bargaining agreement.
LIABILITY INSURANCE
Paracelsus is self-insured for the first $500,000 per occurrence of general
and professional liability risks occurring after October 1, 1987 and the first
$250,000 per occurrence of workers' compensation liability risks occurring after
October 1, 1992. Paracelsus formed Hospital Assurance Company, Ltd., a wholly
owned subsidiary ("HAC"), in order to insure the general and professional and
workers' compensation risks beginning October 1, 1992. In addition, Paracelsus
owns approximately 10% of Hospital Underwriters Group ("HUG"), which insures the
first $2.5 million per occurrence of claims in excess of $500,000, and reinsures
amounts over $3.0 million per occurrence with unrelated third-party commercial
insurance carriers, up to $100.0 million per occurrence. Upon consummation of
the Merger, the Company intends for Champion and its subsidiaries to be insured
by HAC and HUG in the same manner and to the same extent as the current
subsidiaries of the Company. Prior to the Merger, Champion and its subsidiaries
maintained a program of insurance that Champion believed was adequate to cover
the claims and legal actions to which it and its subsidiaries were subject in
the ordinary course of business.
LITIGATION RELATING TO THE MERGER
Certain holders of Champion Common Stock have filed a purported class action
lawsuit in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, naming as defendants
certain members and a former member of the Champion Board of Directors, Messrs.
Charles R. Miller, James G. VanDevender, James A. Conroy, Manuel M. Ferris,
David S. Spencer, Nolan Lehmann, Paul B. Queally, Scott F. Meadow, William G.
White and Richard D. Sage (collectively, the "Individual Defendants"), and
Champion and Paracelsus. The plaintiffs claim, among other things, that the
Merger and the exchange ratio for the Champion Common Stock pursuant thereto are
unfair and inadequate, that the Individual Defendants violated their fiduciary
duties to Champion and its public stockholders by failing to actively pursue the
acquisition of Champion by other companies or conduct an adequate market check,
and that Paracelsus knowingly aided and abetted the breaches of fiduciary duty
committed by the Individual Defendants. Plaintiffs seek preliminary and
permanent injunctions against the proposed Merger. In addition, plaintiffs seek
an accounting of all profits realized by the defendants, as well as monetary
damages for an unspecified amount, and costs and attorneys' and experts' fees.
CERTAIN OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
During March 1996, Paracelsus settled two lawsuits in connection with the
operation of its psychiatric programs. Paracelsus recognized an unusual charge
for settlement costs totaling $22.4 million in the six months ended March 31,
1996 which consisted of settlement payments, legal fees and the write off of
certain psychiatric accounts receivables in connection with the settlement of
the two lawsuits. Paracelsus did not admit liability in either case but resolved
the disputes through the
57
<PAGE>
settlements in order to reestablish a business relationship and/or avoid further
legal costs in connection with the disputes. Paracelsus and the plaintiff
insurance company have reestablished their business relationship. See
"Paracelsus Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" and "Paracelsus Selected Historical Consolidated
Financial and Operating Data."
The Company is subject to claims and suits in the ordinary course of
business, including those arising from care and treatment afforded at the
Company's acute care, psychiatric and rehabilitative hospitals and skilled
nursing facilities, and maintains insurance and, where appropriate, reserves
with respect to the possible liability arising from such claims. The Company
believes that the ultimate resolution of the proceedings presently pending
against Paracelsus or Champion (or any of the Company's other subsidiaries) will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position or results of operations.

(1) Under the Phantom Equity Plan, which is to be terminated in connection with
the Merger, each participant was eligible to be awarded a certain number of
PSARs effective as of the beginning of each fiscal year. The dollar value of
each PSAR was determinable based on the Company's performance over a period
of four fiscal years, beginning on the effective date of such PSAR award (a
"Cycle"). At the end of a Cycle, if the participant had remained in service
with Paracelsus throughout the Cycle, that participant's PSARs would vest
and could be exchanged for an amount equal to the increase in the actual
book value of the Company, if any, during that Cycle divided by 100,000. At
the end of each Cycle, the Board could award additional PSARs if certain
growth and income targets established at the beginning of the Cycle had been
achieved. Such additional PSARs would be awarded effective as of the
beginning of such Cycle. No more than 5,000 PSARs could be granted with
respect to any particular Cycle. Upon consummation of the Merger, the
Phantom Equity Plan will be terminated. In exchange for cancellation of all
awards under the Phantom Equity Plan, participants will receive a lump sum
in cash plus immediately exercisable Options with an exercise price equal to
$0.01 per share. For information regarding the number of Options to be
granted to the Named Executive Officers in connection with the cancellation
of awards under the Phantom Equity Plan, see "-- 1996 Stock Incentive Plan."
In addition, cash payments in the aggregate amount of $20.5 million will be
made to all participants in the Phantom Equity Plan, including the Named
Executive Officers, based on the value of their terminated PSARs and/or
Preferred Stock Units ("PSUs").
(2) The threshold amounts shown are calculated based on an assumed annual net
income growth rate of 0%. If the actual annual net income growth rate were
negative, the threshold amount payable under the Phantom Equity Plan could
reach zero.
(3) The Phantom Equity Plan does not contemplate specific performance targets.
If the percentage increase in annual net income for fiscal year 1995 were
the same as that achieved in fiscal year 1994, the amounts payable would
equal the amounts shown under the maximum payout column.
64
<PAGE>
(4) The maximum amounts shown are calculated based on an assumed annual net
income growth rate of 20%, the annual net income growth rate at which the
maximum number of PSARs become available to all participants under the
Phantom Equity Plan. The Phantom Equity Plan does not impose any limit on
the value of a PSAR, which would continue to increase with further increases
in the annual net income growth rate.
1996 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
The Company has adopted the Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation 1996 Stock
Incentive Plan (the "1996 Stock Incentive Plan"), which following the Merger
will be administered by the Compensation Committee. All officers (including
officers who are also directors), employees, consultants and advisors of the
Company are eligible for discretionary stock-based incentive awards under the
1996 Stock Incentive Plan, including incentive stock options, non-qualified
stock options, restricted stock, performance shares, stock appreciation rights
("SARs") and deferred stock. The 1996 Stock Incentive Plan authorizes the
Compensation Committee to select eligible persons to receive awards and to
determine certain terms and conditions of such awards, including the vesting
schedule and exercise price of each award, and whether the vesting of such award
will accelerate upon the occurrence of a change in control of the Company. Under
the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, non-qualified options may be granted with an
option exercise price that is less than the then current market value of the
Common Stock. Under the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, stock options, restricted
stock, performance shares or SARs covering no more than 80% of the shares
reserved for issuance under the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan may be granted to any
participant in any one year. A total of 8,749,933 shares of Common Stock have
been reserved for issuance under the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan.
The 1996 Stock Incentive Plan may be amended, suspended or terminated at any
time. However, the maximum number of shares that may be sold or issued under the
1996 Stock Incentive Plan may not be increased, nor may the class of persons
eligible to participate in the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan be altered, without the
approval of Paracelsus' shareholders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that adjustments to the
number of shares subject to the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan and to individual
awards thereunder and/or to the exercise price of awards previously granted are
permitted without shareholder approval upon the occurrence of certain events
affecting the capital structure of the Company. With respect to any other
amendments to the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, the Board may, in its discretion,
determine that such amendment will become effective only upon approval by the
shareholders of the Company if the Board determines that such shareholder
approval may be advisable, such as for the purpose of obtaining or retaining any
statutory or regulatory benefits under Federal or state securities laws, Federal
or state tax laws or any other laws or for the purpose of satisfying applicable
stock exchange listing requirements.
In connection with the termination of PSARs and/or PSUs previously granted
under the Phantom Equity Plan, the Company has granted options under the 1996
Stock Incentive Plan to the Named Executive Officers. In addition, pursuant to
their respective Employment Agreements (as defined below), the Company has
granted additional options under the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan to Messrs.
Messenger and Joyner, as described in the table below.

PERFORMANCE BONUS PLAN
The Board has adopted the Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation Executive
Officer Performance Bonus Plan (the "Performance Bonus Plan") covering eligible
officers of the Company. The Performance Bonus Plan will be administered by the
Compensation Committee, which each year, beginning on January 1, 1997, will
select the officers of the Company who will be eligible to receive awards under
the Performance Bonus Plan. Upon achievement by the Company of certain targeted
operating results or other performance goals, such as operating income, pre-tax
income or earnings per share, the Company will pay performance bonuses, the
aggregate amounts of which will be determined annually based upon an objective
formula. The Employment Agreements (as defined below) provide for the payment of
certain minimum bonuses upon the achievement of targeted performance criteria
under the Performance Bonus Plan. See "-- Employment Contracts and Termination
of Employment Agreements."
SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN
The matrix below sets forth benefits payable to the Named Executive Officers
under the Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan (the "SERP"). Amounts shown represent the annual benefits to which the
Named Executive Officers would be entitled under the SERP (assuming payment in
the form of a single life annuity), but do not reflect an offset with respect to
certain Social Security benefits.

</TABLE>
SERP benefits for the Named Executive Officers are determined, subject to
certain vesting requirements, as (i) the product of (x) number of years of
service with the Company, (y) 3.67% for officer participants (2.33% for
non-officer participants) and (z) average earnings for the final 36 months of
employment, less (ii) a percentage of the participating officer's Social
Security benefits. SERP benefits for the Named Executive Officers generally
accrue and vest ratably over a 15-year period. However, upon a change in control
of the Company, each Named Executive Officer will
66
<PAGE>
immediately become fully vested and entitled to full benefits under the SERP,
regardless of his actual number of years of service with the Company, in the
event of a termination by such person of his employment or a termination of such
person by the Company without cause after such change in control. Prior to the
Merger, the term "change in control" was defined under the SERP to include,
among other things, certain offerings of equity securities pursuant to a
registration statement, including the registration statement filed in connection
with the Merger. Accordingly, consummation of the Merger constituted a change in
control for the Named Executive Officers. Following the Merger, with respect to
new participants in the SERP, the term "change in control" is defined as
discussed in "-- Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment Agreements."
Pursuant to their Employment Agreements, Messrs. Miller, VanDevender and
Patterson will each receive credit for eligibility, vesting and benefit accrual
purposes under the SERP for their prior service with Champion. Immediately
following the Effective Time of the Merger, Messrs. Messenger, Topper, Joyner,
Miller, VanDevender and Patterson will each have, respectively, 15, 15, 15, 6, 6
and 4 years of credited service under the SERP. Mr. Buck retired in April 1995
with 11 years of service and is currently receiving benefits under the SERP. Dr.
Krukemeyer does not participate in the SERP.
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
Following the Merger, it is anticipated that non-employee directors of the
Company will each receive an annual fee of $30,000 and a fee of $2,500 for each
meeting of the Board or any committee thereof attended, up to a maximum of
$50,000 per year. Directors of the Company who are also employees of the Company
will not receive any additional compensation for their service as directors. All
directors will be reimbursed for expenses incurred in the performance of their
duties. For information regarding a services agreement pursuant to which Dr.
Krukemeyer will provide consulting services to the Company (other than in his
capacity as Chairman of the Board), see "Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions -- Services Agreement."
EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
In connection with the consummation of the Merger, Messrs. Messenger and
Joyner's existing employment agreements with Paracelsus and Messrs. Miller,
VanDevender and Patterson's existing employment agreements with Champion will be
terminated and replaced with new employment agreements (the "Employment
Agreements") as described below.
Such officers' respective Employment Agreements provide that they will serve
in the following capacities: Mr. Messenger as Chief Executive Officer and, for
so long as he is a Shareholder Director, Vice Chairman of the Board and Chairman
of the Executive Committee; Mr. Miller as President and Chief Operating Officer,
a director on the Board and, for so long as he is a director, a member of the
Executive Committee; Mr. VanDevender as Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer, a director on the Board and, for so long as he is a director,
a member of the Executive Committee; Mr. Patterson as Executive Vice President
and President, Healthcare Operations; and Mr. Joyner as Senior Vice President,
Secretary and General Counsel. Each of such officers is required to devote
substantially all of his business time to the affairs of the Company, provided,
that to the extent such activities do not materially interfere with the
performance of his duties with the Company, Mr. Messenger is permitted to devote
some portion of his time to other business and charitable endeavors.
Each of the Employment Agreements of Messrs. Messenger, Miller and
VanDevender will have an initial term of five years, and each of the Employment
Agreements of Messrs. Patterson and Joyner will have an initial term of three
years. Each of the Employment Agreements of Messrs. Messenger, Miller and
VanDevender will be renewed automatically upon expiration of its initial term
and any subsequent five-year term unless the Company or any of Messrs.
Messenger, Miller or VanDevender, as applicable, gives 12 months prior notice
that such agreement will not be renewed. Upon expiration of their initial terms,
each of the Employment Agreements of Messrs. Patterson and Joyner will be
67
<PAGE>
renewed automatically one time only for three and two additional years,
respectively, unless the Company or either of Messrs. Patterson or Joyner, as
applicable, gives 12 months prior notice that such agreement will not be
renewed.
Under the Employment Agreements, each such officer will be entitled to
receive a base salary and an annual bonus and will be entitled to participate in
the compensation and employee benefits plans of the Company that are generally
available to the executives of the Company. In addition, each such officer will
be entitled to receive certain fringe benefits as provided for in his Employment
Agreements. The initial base salary of each such officer under his respective
Employment Agreement is as follows: Mr. Messenger: $750,000; Mr. Miller:
$500,000; Mr. VanDevender: $350,000; Mr. Patterson: $350,000; and Mr. Joyner:
$240,000. The maximum bonuses payable upon the achievement of targeted
performance criteria under the Performance Bonus Plan, expressed as a percentage
of base salary, will be as follows: Mr. Messenger: 100%; Mr. Miller: 85%; Mr.
VanDevender: 70%; Mr. Patterson: 70%; and Mr. Joyner: 60%. Messrs. Messenger,
Miller, VanDevender, Patterson and Joyner will each be granted Paracelsus
Options as described in "-- 1996 Stock Incentive Plan." Messrs. Miller,
VanDevender and Patterson each will also receive credit for eligibility, vesting
and benefit accrual purposes under the SERP with respect to their respective
years of prior service with Champion. See "-- Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan." In addition, Messrs. Miller, VanDevender and Patterson will receive
bonuses in the respective amounts of $1,200,000, $750,000 and $500,000 in
connection with the termination of their prior employment agreements with
Champion.
The Employment Agreements provide that Messrs. Messenger, Miller,
VanDevender, Patterson and Joyner each is generally prohibited from competing
with the Company while employed by the Company. The Employment Agreements also
provide that, in the event of termination of his employment by the Company for
"Cause" or by such officer other than for "Good Reason" (each as defined in his
Employment Agreement) during the initial term of his employment agreement,
Messrs. Miller, VanDevender and Patterson each will be prohibited from so
competing for a period of two years following such termination, and Messrs.
Messenger and Joyner each will be prohibited from so competing for one year
following such termination. The Employment Agreements for all such officers will
also provide that each such officer will be prohibited from so competing for a
period of one year following such a termination during successive terms of his
agreement.
The employment of Messrs. Messenger, Miller and VanDevender cannot be
terminated by the Company without the prior approval of 80% of the Board and 2/3
of the Independent Directors . If any of Messrs. Messenger, Miller or
VanDevender is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason, such
officer's outstanding options will immediately vest and become exercisable and
such officer will be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to the greater
of (x) his current base salary and annual target bonus payable over the
remaining term of employment or (y) three times his current base salary plus
annual target bonus.
If Mr. Patterson is terminated by the Company without Cause or resigns for
Good Reason, his outstanding options will immediately vest and become
exercisable and he will be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to the
greater of (x) his current base salary and annual target bonus payable over the
remainder of his contract term or (y) 2.5 times his current annual salary plus
annual target bonus. If Mr. Joyner is terminated by the Company without Cause or
resigns for Good Reason, his outstanding options will immediately vest and
become exercisable and he will be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal
to the greater of (x) his current base salary and annual target bonus payable
over the remainder of his contract term or (y) two times his current annual
salary plus annual target bonus.
Upon termination of the employment of any of Messrs. Messenger, Miller,
VanDevender, Patterson or Joyner by the Company without Cause or by such officer
for Good Reason, such officer would be entitled to receive an additional lump
sum in an amount sufficient to offset the effect of any excise and other taxes
to which such officer may become subject by reason of section 4999 of the Code.
68
<PAGE>
The definition of Good Reason in the Employment Agreements generally
includes a reduction in compensation, titles, duties, authority and reporting
relationships, as well as notice by the Company that it does not wish to extend
the terms of the Employment Agreements for the periods described above. In
addition, for purposes of the Employment Agreements for Messrs. Messenger,
Miller and VanDevender, Good Reason includes their failure to be nominated and
elected to serve as members of the Board of Directors and the Executive
Committee. The definition of Good Reason for Messrs. Messenger and Miller
further includes the failure of either of them to abide by the managerial rights
provisions as set forth in their Employment Agreements. Mr. Miller's Employment
Agreement also provides that he will have Good Reason to terminate his
employment if, in the event Mr. Messenger shall at any time cease to serve as
Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Miller is not chosen to serve as his successor. In
addition, the Employment Agreements will provide each of the senior officers
with the right, exercisable within the 12-month period following a "change in
control" of the Company, to terminate their employment without Good Reason and
receive the benefits described above that are otherwise payable upon termination
of their employment with Good Reason.
The term "change in control" is defined in the Employment Agreements to
include, INTER ALIA, (i) the acquisition by any person of 25% or more of the
undiluted total voting power of Paracelsus' then outstanding voting securities
(the "Paracelsus Voting Securities"); (ii) certain changes in the majority of
the Board within any two-year period; (iii) a merger resulting in the holders of
Paracelsus Voting Securities immediately prior to such merger retaining less
than 60% of the voting securities of the surviving corporation or a
reorganization or reincorporation of the Company in which any person acquires
25% or more of the voting securities of the surviving corporation; and (iv) the
liquidation of the Company or the sale of all or substantially all its assets.
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
Prior to July 1996, the Company did not have a formal compensation
committee. Dr. Krukemeyer and Mr. Messenger each participated in deliberations
of the Board concerning executive officer compensation during fiscal 1995.
Following the Merger, the Compensation Committee is expected to consist of Dr.
Krukemeyer and two Independent Directors. See "Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions," immediately below, for information regarding certain agreements
involving the members of the Company's Compensation Committee.
69
<PAGE>
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Described below are certain related agreements to be entered into prior to
or in connection with the Merger. The following descriptions are qualified in
their entirety by reference to the complete text of the relevant agreements,
copies of which are filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which
this Prospectus is a part and are incorporated by reference herein.
SHAREHOLDER AGREEMENT
The consummation of the Merger is conditioned upon the Paracelsus
Shareholder and Paracelsus entering into the Shareholder Agreement. The
Paracelsus Shareholder, together with any wholly owned entity or any entity that
wholly owns the Paracelsus Shareholder, and all Permitted Transferees (as
defined in the Shareholder Agreement) are together referred to in the following
discussion and in the Shareholder Agreement as the "Investor."
LIMITATION ON ACQUISITIONS OF THE COMPANY VOTING SECURITIES
The Shareholder Agreement prohibits, except as described below, an Investor
from acquiring, or agreeing or offering to purchase or otherwise acquiring, or
suffering or permitting any Affiliates or Associates (as defined in the
Shareholder Agreement) of the Investor to so acquire, or agree or offer to
purchase or otherwise acquire, in a transaction or group of related
transactions, any Voting Securities (as defined below) of the Company, such that
the Investor, together with its Affiliates and Associates, after giving effect
to such transaction or transactions, will beneficially own 66 2/3% or more of
the Total Voting Power (as defined below) of the Company.
ACQUISITIONS IN A FAIR PROPOSAL
The Shareholder Agreement will allow an Investor, together with its
Affiliates and Associates, to beneficially own 66 2/3% or more of the Total
Voting Power of the Company pursuant to a Fair Proposal. A "Fair Proposal" is
defined as (i) an Acquisition Proposal (as hereinafter defined) by such Investor
(or such Investor's Affiliates or Associates) that is approved by the unanimous
vote of the Independent Directors or (ii) a transaction to acquire all of the
outstanding shares that complies with all of the procedures described below. An
"Acquisition Proposal" is defined as any BONA FIDE offer or proposal for (a) a
merger or other business combination (other than a Surviving Company Merger) (as
defined herein) involving the Company, (b) the acquisition of any Voting
Securities representing more than 50% of the Total Voting Power after giving
effect to such Acquisition Proposal or (c) the acquisition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company. As used herein, a "Surviving
Company Merger" means any merger or other business combination or reorganization
(x) where the transaction has been approved by a unanimous vote of the entire
Board or (y) where the holders of Voting Securities of the Company prior to such
transaction will beneficially own (as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 or Rule
13d-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"))
in the aggregate at least 60% of the surviving corporation's Total Voting Power
immediately upon giving effect to such transaction.
In order for a transaction to qualify as a Fair Proposal under clause (ii)
of the immediately preceding paragraph, the transaction must comply with all the
following procedures. First, the Investor must make a written request to the
Board expressing the Investor's desire to acquire beneficial ownership of Voting
Securities. Promptly after the Board's receipt of such request, the Independent
Directors, as a group, and the Investor will each designate an investment
banking firm of recognized national standing that does not beneficially own
(excluding securities held on behalf of third parties) a material amount of the
Company' securities (the "Company Appraiser" and the "Investor Appraiser,"
respectively) (the date of designation, the "Initiation Date"), in each case to
determine the fair value per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Shareholder
Agreement, the consideration that constitutes fair value per share is the price
per share (including control premium) that an unrelated third party would pay if
it were to acquire all outstanding shares (including the shares held by the
Investor and its Affiliates and Associates) in an arm's-length transaction,
assuming that the
70
<PAGE>
Company was being sold in a manner reasonably designed to solicit all possible
participants and to permit all interested parties an opportunity to participate
and to achieve the best value reasonably available to the shareholders at that
time, taking into account all then existing circumstances.
Within 30 days after the Initiation Date, each appraiser will determine its
initial view as to the fair value per share and consult with one another with
respect thereto. By the 45th day after the Initiation Date, the appraisers will
each have determined their final view as to the fair value per share. At that
point, if the difference between the higher and lower views of such appraisers
is not greater than 10% of the higher amount, the price per share (the "Price")
will be the average of those two views. Otherwise, the appraisers will each
designate a third investment banking firm of recognized national standing that
does not beneficially own (excluding securities held on behalf of third parties)
a material amount of the securities of the Company (the "Mutually Designated
Appraiser") to determine such fair value. The Mutually Designated Appraiser
will, no later than the 60th day after the Initiation Date, determine such fair
value, and the Price will be (i) the amount determined by the Mutually
Designated Appraiser, if such amount falls within the range of values that is
greater than one-third and less than two-thirds of the way between the lower and
the higher amount, or (ii) the average of the amount determined by the Mutually
Designated Appraiser and the other appraised amount (lower or higher) that is
closest to such amount, if the amount determined by the Mutually Designated
Appraiser does not fall within that range. If the Price so determined is less
than the lower amount or more than the higher amount, the Price will be the
lower amount or the higher amount, as the case may be. During such 60-day
period, the Company will not, subject to fiduciary duties and applicable law,
enter into or recommend to its shareholders any other Acquisition Proposal.
After the Price is determined, the Investor will have 15 days to notify the
Board of a decision to proceed with a Fair Proposal at the Price. If the
Investor decides not to proceed, (i) the Investor will promptly notify the Board
in writing and (ii) the Investor and its Affiliates and Associates will not make
a written request for an Acquisition Proposal to the Board under the Fair
Proposal provisions for a period of six months from the date the Investor
notifies the Board of his intent not to proceed, PROVIDED that the Investor and
its Affiliates and Associates will not at any time be restricted from making a
written request for an Acquisition Proposal to the Board under the Fair Proposal
provisions at a price that is equal to or in excess of the last determined Price
or from exercising their right of first offer, if any, as described below.
If the Investor decides to proceed with a Fair Proposal, the Investor may
pay or cause to be paid the Price in cash or non-cash consideration or any
combination of cash and non-cash consideration that the Investor Appraiser and
the Company Appraiser mutually agree upon within 15 days will have an aggregate
market value, on a fully distributed basis, of not less than the Price. However,
if such appraisers fail to reach agreement, they will within five business days
designate the Mutually Agreed Appraiser to make such determination within ten
days after such designation, whose determination will be final.
If the Investor determines to proceed with a Fair Proposal, the Investor and
the Company will enter into an agreement (containing customary terms and
conditions applicable in a situation in which the acquiror has an ownership
position comparable to the Investor's ownership interest in the Company) and, if
the Fair Proposal is not to be consummated pursuant to a tender or exchange
offer for all of the outstanding shares, will cause a meeting of shareholders of
the Company to be held as soon as practicable to consider and vote thereon.
However, for a period of one year following the Effective Time, no Fair Proposal
may be consummated unless (i) if the Fair Proposal is not a tender or exchange
offer, it is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of
the Minority Shares (as defined below) at a meeting duly called therefor, in
addition to any vote required by law, or (ii) if the Fair Proposal is a tender
or exchange offer, a majority of the Minority Shares have been validly tendered
and not withdrawn and are accepted for payment as of the expiration date (as may
be extended) of the offer. If the Fair Proposal is not approved or insufficient
shares of Common Stock are tendered to consummate the Fair Proposal in
accordance with the terms of the Shareholder Agreement described herein within
180 days from the Initiation Date (which period may be extended by a
71
<PAGE>
vote of 75% of the entire Board and a majority of the Independent Directors),
the Investor will terminate the Fair Proposal and will not make a written
request for an Acquisition Proposal to the Board under the Fair Proposal
provisions for a period of one year from the Initiation Date; PROVIDED that the
Investor and its Affiliates and Associates will not at any time be restricted
from exercising their right of first offer, if any, as described below. The
Company has agreed, subject to fiduciary duties and in accordance with
applicable law, to promptly call and to take all other action necessary to hold
the shareholder meeting referred to above.
As used herein, "Minority Shares" means the shares beneficially owned by
Minority Shareholders, and "Minority Shareholders" means the beneficial owners
of Voting Securities of the Company who are not Investors, their Affiliates or
Associates or any member of a group of which an Investor, or its Affiliates or
Associates, are members (in each case for each Investor and its Affiliates and
Associates only for so long as the Shareholder Agreement is in effect with
respect to the respective Investor).
Finally, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the provisions of the
Shareholder Agreement described above, if the Independent Directors unanimously
determine, in the good faith exercise of their fiduciary duties, based upon the
facts and the circumstances existing at the time of such determination, that it
is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders that the
Independent Directors approve and recommend, in accordance with the terms
hereof, an Acquisition Proposal at a price lower than the Price, then such
unanimously "Approved Acquisition Proposal" will be a Fair Proposal and the
price at which the Investor may consummate the Acquisition Proposal hereunder
will be the price so determined. At the Effective Time, the Paracelsus
Shareholder and Messrs. Miller and VanDevender will enter into an agreement to
vote, or cause to be voted, any shares of the Common Stock beneficially owned by
each of them and their respective affiliates with the Paracelsus Shareholder
with respect to any Approved Acquisition Proposal. See "-- Voting Agreement."
STANDSTILL LIMITATIONS
Under the Shareholder Agreement, an Investor is subject to customary
standstill provisions, whether acting alone or in concert with others, except as
otherwise permitted by the Shareholder Agreement, including without limitation
restrictions on:
(a) soliciting proxies or any Voting Securities of the Company in any
way that is inconsistent with the provisions of the Shareholder Agreement;
(b) becoming a participant in any election contest in opposition to a
slate of director nominees nominated by the Board;
(c) proposing a director nominees proposal with respect to the Company
as described in Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act;
(d) seeking election to or to place a representative on the Board or
remove any member of the Board;
(e) taking any action, including providing non-public information to any
other person, with respect to any form of business combination transaction
involving the Company or the acquisition of a substantial portion of the
equity securities or assets of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company,
including a merger, consolidation, tender offer, exchange offer or
liquidation of the Company's assets, or any restructuring, recapitalization
or similar transaction with respect to the Company or any material
subsidiary of the Company; or
(f) forming a group with respect to any Voting Securities of the
Company, other than a group consisting solely of the Investors, the Company
and their respective Affiliates and Associates.
72
<PAGE>
LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFERS OF VOTING SECURITIES
The Shareholder Agreement contains certain customary transfer restrictions
that prohibit an Investor from Transferring, or permitting any Affiliates or
Associates to Transfer (as defined below), in any single transaction or group of
related transactions, any Voting Securities of the Company, except for certain
Transfers, including without limitation the following:
(a) to any person who owns 100% of the Total Voting Power of the
Investor and to any wholly owned subsidiary of the Investor or any such
person; PROVIDED that such transferee must become a party to the Shareholder
Agreement as an Investor and, in the case of a Transfer to a wholly owned
subsidiary, the Transferring Investor guarantees to the Company the
performance of all obligations of such transferee under the Shareholder
Agreement;
(b) to any person such that, after such Transfer, such person, together
with its Affiliates and Associates, will not beneficially own, after giving
effect to such Transfer, Voting Securities of the Company constituting 25%
or more of the Total Voting Power of the Company;
(c) in a BONA FIDE pledge of such Voting Securities to a financial
institution to secure borrowings as permitted by applicable laws, rules and
regulations;
(d) to underwriters in connection with an underwritten public offering
of such Voting Securities on a firm commitment basis registered under the
Securities Act, pursuant to which the sale of such Voting Securities will be
in a manner to effect a broad distribution;
(e) to the Company or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company;
(f) to a person so long as either immediately after or simultaneously
with the acquisition of such Voting Securities, such person or an Affiliate
of such person makes an Acquisition Proposal to acquire all outstanding
shares at the same price and on equivalent terms offered to the Investor and
its Affiliates and Associates that is made in compliance with the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder; PROVIDED that: (i) other than
with respect to the shares to be transferred by the Investor or its
Affiliates or Associates, such person may not purchase any shares in the
Acquisition Proposal and the Acquisition Proposal may not otherwise be
consummated unless it is approved and recommended (and, immediately prior to
consummation of the Acquisition Proposal, continues to be recommended) by a
majority of the Independent Directors; (ii) if the Acquisition Proposal is a
tender or exchange offer that is approved and recommended (and, immediately
prior to consummation of the Acquisition Proposal, continues to be
recommended) by a majority of the Independent Directors, the terms of such
tender will provide that such person will, and such person will be required
to, accept for payment and purchase all shares validly tendered and not
withdrawn upon expiration of the offer if a majority of the Minority Shares
are validly tendered and not withdrawn upon expiration of the offer; and
(iii) such person will agree to be bound as an Investor by all obligations
of the Investor under the Shareholder Agreement and will remain so obligated
notwithstanding the termination of the Shareholder Agreement pursuant to its
terms with respect to any other Investor. In addition to the foregoing, for
a period of one year from the Effective Time, other than with respect to the
shares of Common Stock to be transferred by the Investor or its Affiliates
or Associates, (x) if the Acquisition Proposal is not a tender or exchange
offer, the Acquisition Proposal may not be consummated unless it is approved
by holders of a majority of the Minority Shares at a meeting duly called
therefor, in addition to any vote required by law, or (y) if the Acquisition
Proposal is a tender or exchange offer, such person may not accept for
payment or purchase any shares in connection with the offer unless a
majority of the Minority Shares have been tendered and not withdrawn upon
expiration of the offer; and
(g) to any person in connection with an Approved Acquisition Proposal or

RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER
The Shareholder Agreement provides that after the Effective Time the Company
will not enter into or recommend any Approved Acquisition Proposal without first
notifying the Paracelsus Shareholder in writing (a "Proposal Notice") and
providing the Paracelsus Shareholder (including its Affiliates) the opportunity
to consummate an Acquisition Proposal on terms substantially equivalent to and,
if the Approved Acquisition Proposal is a cash offer, at a cash price or, if the
Approved Acquisition Proposal includes non-cash consideration, at a price (in
either case, the "Offer Price") equal to the sum of the amount of any cash plus
the fair market value of any other consideration offered in such prospective
Approved Acquisition Proposal, as the same may be amended or modified from time
to time (a "Shareholder Proposal"). The Proposal Notice will set forth the
identity of the proposed purchaser and the material terms of the proposed
Approved Acquisition Proposal. If the proposed Approved Acquisition Proposal is
amended or modified, the Company will promptly notify the Paracelsus Shareholder
in writing (an "Amended Proposal Notice"). However, if the Paracelsus
Shareholder does not provide an Acceptance Notice (as defined below) after
receipt of a Proposal Notice or any required Amended Proposal Notice, no Amended
Proposal Notice will be required unless the terms of such amendments or
modifications are less favorable in any material respect to the Company than
those contained in the Proposal Notice or any prior Amended Proposal Notices.
Any required Amended Proposal Notice will set forth the identity of the proposed
purchaser and the material terms of the amended or modified proposed Approved
Acquisition Proposal.
The Paracelsus Shareholder has further agreed that within six business days
after receipt of the Proposal Notice or any required Amended Proposal Notice,
the Paracelsus Shareholder will notify (an "Acceptance Notice") the Board in
writing of its good faith intention to enter into negotiations regarding a
Shareholder Proposal. The failure to so notify will constitute notice of the
Paracelsus Shareholder's intention not to pursue a Shareholder Proposal. If the
Paracelsus Shareholder fails to deliver an Acceptance Notice after the Proposal
Notice or, if applicable, the Amended Proposal Notice, (i) the Independent
Directors and the Board will have the right to approve and recommend the
Approved Acquisition Proposal to the Company's shareholders and (ii) the Company
will have the right to enter into such agreements and take such actions in
furtherance of consummating, and to consummate, the Approved Acquisition
Proposal at the Offer Price at any time within one year from the date the
Approved Acquisition Proposal was first made to the Company.
For a period of 15 days from the date of the last Acceptance Notice, the
Paracelsus Shareholder will have the non-exclusive right to negotiate the
Shareholder Proposal in good faith with the Independent Directors of the Board
and their representatives. However, if at the end of that 15-day period, a
majority of the Independent Directors in the good faith exercise of their
fiduciary duties determine that the competing Approved Acquisition Proposal is
superior to the Shareholder Proposal or if the Shareholder Proposal is accepted
and is then terminated in accordance with its terms, (i) the Independent
Directors and the Board will have the right to approve and recommend such
competing Approved Acquisition Proposal to the Company's shareholders and (ii)
the Company will have the right to enter into such agreements and take such
actions in furtherance of consummating, and to consummate, such competing
Approved Acquisition Proposal at the Offer Price at any time within one year
from the date the Acquisition Proposal was first made to the Company.
The Shareholder Agreement also provides that if the consideration offered by
the prospective purchaser or transferee or, if permitted, offered by the
Paracelsus Shareholder, includes non-cash consideration, the Company and the
Paracelsus Shareholder will in good faith seek to agree upon the value of such
non-cash consideration. If the Company and the Paracelsus Shareholder fail to
agree on such value within 15 days following receipt by the Paracelsus
Shareholder of the Proposal Notice, then the Independent Directors and the
Paracelsus Shareholder will appoint a nationally recognized investment banking
firm mutually acceptable to the Independent Directors and the Paracelsus
Shareholder which will resolve the issues in dispute. However, if the
Independent Directors and the Paracelsus Shareholder cannot agree on an
investment banking firm then each will appoint a nationally recognized
investment banking firm which together will within five business days mutually
agree
74
<PAGE>
on another nationally recognized investment banking firm which will make a final
and binding determination within 10 days. The value of any securities will be
the fair market value of such securities, and the value of any property other
than securities will be the fair market value of such property. If a
determination under the provisions of the Shareholder Agreement described in
this paragraph is required, any deadline for acceptance described in this
paragraph will be postponed until the third business day after the date of such
determination; and any such determination will be final and binding on the
Company and the Paracelsus Shareholder.
The Shareholder Agreement provides that the foregoing right of first offer
of the Paracelsus Shareholder will not inure to the benefit of any Permitted
Transferees. At the Effective Time, the Paracelsus Shareholder and Messrs.
Miller and VanDevender will enter into an agreement to vote, or cause to be
voted, any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each of them and their
respective affiliates to approve any Shareholder Proposal contemplated by the
Shareholder Agreement. See "-- Voting Agreement."
COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD
Pursuant to the Shareholder Agreement, as of the Effective Time, the Board
will consist of nine members, which number may only be increased as described
below. The Board will be divided into three classes with the number of directors
divided as equally as possible among the three classes. At the Paracelsus
Shareholder's request, the Company will include, as nominees for the Board slate
recommended by the Board, up to four directors (the "Shareholder Directors"),
one of whom will be a member of Class I, one of whom will be a member of Class
II and two of whom will be members of Class III. In addition, three members of
the Board will be Independent Directors and each of such Independent Directors
will be elected to one of the three classes. Independent Directors to be
nominated for election will be nominated by a vote of 75% of the entire Board
or, if the Board cannot so agree, by the unanimous vote of the Independent
Directors then in office. As used herein, an "Independent Director" is a
director of the Board who is not a Shareholder Director, a Transferee Director
or an officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; PROVIDED that, only for
the purpose of determining an individual's qualification to vote on a particular
matter, each such individual also must not have (and must not be an Affiliate of
any person who has) any material financial interest with respect to the
particular matter under consideration. In addition, the Shareholder Agreement
provides that two persons who are not Shareholder Directors, Transferee
Directors or Independent Directors may be nominated to the Board.
The Board size may be increased, but to no more than 12 members, upon the
Paracelsus Shareholder, together with its Affiliates and Associates, ceasing to
own certain threshold percentages of the non-diluted aggregate number of votes
that may be cast by the holders of outstanding Voting Securities (the "Total
Voting Power") of the Company. As used herein, "Voting Securities" means all
securities entitled to vote in the ordinary course in the election of directors
or of persons serving in a similar governing capacity, including the voting
rights attached to such securities and rights or options to acquire such
securities. Specifically, the Paracelsus Shareholder agrees to vote, and to use
its best efforts to cause all Shareholder Directors or Transferee Directors, as
the case may be, to vote, immediately to increase the size of the Board if the
Paracelsus Shareholder together with its Affiliates and Associates ceases to
beneficially own (i) 35% of the Total Voting Power, to ten directors, (ii) 32.5%
of the Total Voting Power, to 11 directors and (iii) 30% of the Total Voting
Power, to 12 directors. The nominees to vacancies created as a result of such
increase shall be Independent Directors. As used herein, any reference to
beneficial ownership by any person of Voting Securities has the meaning set
forth in the Shareholder Agreement.
Vacancies among the Independent Directors occurring prior to the expiration
of their respective terms of office or created for Independent Directors as a
result of increasing the size of the Board as described above, will be filled by
a vote of 75% of the entire remaining Board or, if the Board cannot so agree, by
the unanimous vote of the Independent Directors then in office. The Shareholder
Agreement
75
<PAGE>
also provides that the Investor will vote, or cause any of its Affiliates or
Associates to vote, any Voting Securities of the Company beneficially owned by
such Investor or its Affiliates or Associates against the removal of any
directors without cause other than Shareholder Directors or Transferee
Directors.
The Shareholder Agreement provides that the Company will nominate and will
use its best efforts to take and cause to be taken all necessary action
(corporate and other) to elect to the Board the individuals required to be
nominated for election as directors in accordance with the provisions of the
Shareholder Agreement described above. In addition, the Shareholder Agreement
provides that the Investor will nominate and use its best efforts, and will use
its best efforts to cause the Shareholder Directors and Transferee Directors, as
the case may be, and the Investor's Affiliates and Associates to use their
respective reasonable efforts, to take and cause to be taken all necessary
action (corporate and other), which efforts will include the voting of all
Voting Securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Investor and the
Investor's Affiliates and Associates and voting, subject to his or her fiduciary
duties, as a Shareholder Director or Transferee Director, to nominate and elect
to the Board the individuals nominated by the Board in accordance with the
provisions of the Shareholder Agreement and the terms of any employment
contracts between the Company and its executive officers so long as such
employment agreements remain in effect.
The quorum required for the transaction of business by the Board will
include at least one Shareholder Director or one Transferee Director and one
director who is an Independent Director, or their respective designees.
The Shareholder Agreement also provides that, for so long as such agreement
remains in effect, each committee of the Board (other than the Audit Committee
and the Compensation Committee) will contain such numbers of Shareholder
Directors or Transferee Directors so that the number of Shareholder Directors
and Transferee Directors, when taken together, on each such committee shall be
as nearly as possible proportional to the total number of Shareholder Directors
and Transferee Directors on the Board. In addition, the Shareholder Agreement
provides that the Audit Committee will be comprised solely of Independent
Directors and, for so long as the Paracelsus Shareholder is entitled to nominate
any Shareholder Directors, the Compensation Committee will be comprised of one
non-employee Shareholder Director, one Independent Director and one additional
non-employee director. The parties have agreed to the initial composition of the
Executive Committee and the Finance and Strategic Planning Committee as
described under "Management" and the Company will waive the proportionality
requirement with respect to the initial members of the Finance and Strategic
Planning Committee.
Under the terms of the Shareholder Agreement, upon the Paracelsus
Shareholder ceasing to beneficially own, together with its Affiliates and
Associates, at least 10% of the Total Voting Power of the Company, the Company
may request that all or any of the Shareholder Directors then on the Board
resign, and upon such request the Paracelsus Shareholder will use its best
efforts to cause such Shareholder Directors, except for Dr. Krukemeyer (who will
resign at the next annual shareholder meeting for election of directors to his
class), to resign immediately and relinquish all rights and privileges as a
member of the Board. In addition, upon the Paracelsus Shareholder ceasing to
beneficially own, together with his Affiliates and Associates, at least 25% of
the Total Voting Power, the Company may request that all or any of the
Shareholder Directors then on the Board resign at the next annual shareholder
meeting for election of directors to their respective classes, and upon such
request the Paracelsus Shareholder shall use its best efforts to cause such
Shareholder Directors to resign at such respective times and thereupon
relinquish all rights and privileges as a member of the Board. Upon termination
of the Shareholder Agreement with respect to any Permitted Transferee, the
Company may request that all of the Transferee Directors then on the Board
resign, and upon such request the Permitted Transferee shall use its best
efforts to cause such Transferee Directors to resign immediately and relinquish
all rights and privileges as a member of the Board.
Under the terms of the Shareholder Agreement, if an Investor consummates any
direct or indirect sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, mortgage
or other disposition, including
76
<PAGE>
those by operation or succession of law, merger or otherwise, or any encumbrance
(other than encumbrances arising by operation of law) (a "Transfer") to a
Permitted Transferee, such Investor will have the right, upon written notice to
the Company, to enter into such agreements and understandings with such
Permitted Transferee so that such Investor relinquishes the right to nominate
directors, and such Permitted Transferee will be entitled to nominate, in place
of the relinquished directors, such number of Transferee Directors for whom the
Investor has in such written notice relinquished the right to nominate. However,
the Shareholder Agreement provides that (i) the number of directors entitled to
be nominated by such Investor under the Shareholder Agreement will be reduced by
the number of directors so relinquished and (ii) in no event will all or any one
or any combination of Investors, together with their respective Affiliates and
Associates, at any time have more than four representatives on the Board,
whether pursuant to the terms of the Shareholder Agreement, any right of
director appointment as set forth in any employment agreement between any such
representative and the Company or otherwise.
AGREEMENT TO SELL VOTING SECURITIES
Subject to the rights of the Paracelsus Shareholder to propose, negotiate
and consummate a Shareholder Proposal in accordance with the provisions of the
Shareholder Agreement, the Paracelsus Shareholder has agreed that the Paracelsus
Shareholder will, and will cause any Affiliates or Associates of the Paracelsus
Shareholder to, sell in, tender into and vote in favor of, as the case may be,
any Approved Acquisition Proposal and any Shareholder Proposal approved by the
Independent Directors in accordance with the provisions of the Shareholder
Agreement all Voting Securities of the Company beneficially owned by the
Paracelsus Shareholder or any Affiliate or Associate of the Paracelsus
Shareholder.
The Shareholder Agreement provides that the foregoing obligation to vote and
sell Voting Securities of the Company will not be binding upon any Permitted
Transferees so long as, if the Paracelsus Shareholder continues to be subject to
the Shareholder Agreement, such Permitted Transferee is not an Affiliate or
Associate of the Paracelsus Shareholder.
VOTING ON CERTAIN MATTERS
The Shareholder Agreement provides that unless such action is recommended by
the Board, an Investor will not, and will cause its Affiliates and Associates
not to, vote any Voting Securities of the Company to amend or repeal the
Articles or the Bylaws or to call or request any special meeting of the
Company's shareholders. In addition, the Investor has agreed to cause all Voting
Securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Investor and all of its
Affiliates and Associates to be represented, in person or by proxy, at all
meetings of holders of Voting Securities of the Company of which the Investor
has actual notice, so that such Voting Securities may be counted for the purpose
of determining the presence of a quorum at such meetings.
TERMINATION
With respect to a particular Investor (but not with respect to any other
person who may at such time be bound by the terms of the Shareholder Agreement),
the Shareholder Agreement shall terminate automatically without any action by
any party upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Investor, together with all of
its Affiliates and Associates, ceasing to beneficially own at least 25% of the
Total Voting Power of the Company (but certain provisions described under "--
Composition of the Board" will not, with respect to the Paracelsus Shareholder,
terminate until the Paracelsus Shareholder, together with all of its Affiliates
and Associates, ceases to beneficially own at least 10% of the Total Voting
Power of the Company) and (ii) the Investor, together with all of its Affiliates
and Associates, beneficially owning at least 90% of the Total Voting Power of
the Company. However, in the event of a termination pursuant to clause (ii)
above, the Investor will remain obligated to and will promptly acquire all of
the remaining Voting Securities of the Company (other than any such Voting
Securities properly exercising any appraisal or dissenters' rights) at a price
equal to or in excess of any price paid by the Investor or Affiliates or
Associates of such Investor for such Voting Securities in the 90-day
77
<PAGE>
period preceding such acquisition. In addition, in the event of a termination
pursuant to clause (i) above, the Investor shall remain subject to certain
provisions of the Shareholder Agreement described above under the caption "--
Composition of the Board."
VOTING AGREEMENT
At or prior to the Effective Time, the Paracelsus Shareholder and Messrs.
Miller and VanDevender will enter into a voting agreement (the "Voting
Agreement") pursuant to which Messrs. Miller and VanDevender will agree to vote,
or cause to be voted, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each of
them and their respective affiliates (a) with the Paracelsus Shareholder to
approve any Shareholder Proposal (as defined in the Shareholder Agreement) and
any related actions (including voting against any action or agreement that may
impede, interfere with or adversely affect any such approved Shareholder
Proposal) and (b) as the Paracelsus Shareholder is required to vote with respect
to any such Shareholder Proposal pursuant to the Shareholder Agreement and any
Approved Acquisition Proposal under the Shareholder Agreement. In addition, the
Voting Agreement will provide that Messrs. Miller and VanDevender agree to sell
(including by tender or otherwise) their shares of Common Stock in any
transaction for which they are required to vote under the terms of the Voting
Agreement. The Voting Agreement will also provide that, if the Champion
Founders' Stock Option Plan is not approved at the Special Meeting of Champion
stockholders to be held in connection with the Merger, Messrs. Miller and
VanDevender and the Paracelsus Shareholder will vote for the approval of such
amendments if presented at the next meeting of the Company's shareholders and
will use their respective best efforts to cause such amendments to be presented
as shareholder proposals at such meeting. The Voting Agreement will remain in
effect for so long as the provisions of the Shareholder Agreement relating to
Shareholder Proposals or Approved Acquisition Proposals are in effect with
respect to the Paracelsus Shareholder.
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT
At or prior to the Effective Time, Dr. Krukemeyer and Messrs. Messenger,
Miller, VanDevender and Patterson will enter into an agreement (the "Right of
First Refusal Agreement") pursuant to which Dr. Krukemeyer will have certain
rights to purchase shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each such person
that he may from time to time determine to sell.
PARACELSUS SHAREHOLDER REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, prior to the Effective Time, the
Paracelsus Shareholder Registration Rights Agreement will be entered into by the
Company and the Paracelsus Shareholder. For a 10-year period, the Paracelsus
Shareholder will generally have the right to require the Company, on up to five
separate occasions, to register for sale under the Securities Act shares of
Common Stock owned beneficially or of record by the Paracelsus Shareholder (each
a "Demand Registration"). Subject to certain limitations, any Demand
Registration may be for a shelf registration under Rule 415 under the Securities
Act. The Paracelsus Shareholder Registration Rights Agreement will also grant
the Paracelsus Shareholder customary "piggyback" registration rights with
respect to registrations by the Company or pursuant to registration rights of
other parties. The Company will be required to pay all costs, fees and expenses
incident to its performance of the Paracelsus Shareholder Registration Rights
Agreement, other than any commissions, fees or discounts payable to brokers,
dealers or underwriters.

of shares of Common Stock held by such holders.
Pursuant to the terms of each Champion Investors Registration Rights
Agreement, for a two-year period the Champion Investors, as parties to the
respective Champion Investors Registration Rights Agreement, will generally have
the right to require the Company to register for sale under the Securities Act
the shares of Common Stock owned beneficially or of record by the Champion
Investors (a "Champion Investors Demand Registration") PROVIDED, that, in the
case of the Champion Affiliates Registration Rights Agreement, such demand right
will expire upon the occurrence of a public offering by the Company of equity
securities that results in proceeds of at least $50.0 million, including without
limitation the Equity Offering. Subject to certain limitations, any Champion
Investors Demand Registration may be for a shelf registration under Rule 415 of
the Securities Act. The Champion Investors party to each such Champion Investors
Registration Rights Agreement will also have in the aggregate one customary
piggyback registration right with respect to registrations by the Company, which
"piggyback" right will expire upon consummation of the Equity Offering, and PARI
PASSU "piggyback" registrations with respect to registrations by the Company and
certain selling shareholders, subject to customary underwriters' cutbacks. The
Company will be required to pay all costs, fees and expenses incident to its
performance of each of the Champion Investors Registration Rights Agreements,
other than any commissions, fees or discounts payable to brokers, dealers or
underwriters.
SERVICES AGREEMENT
The consummation of the Merger is conditioned upon the Company entering into
an agreement (the "Services Agreement") with Dr. Krukemeyer, pursuant to which

Company following the Merger. The term of the Services Agreement is 10 years,
and the Company will pay Dr. Krukemeyer a consulting fee of $1.0 million per
year, commencing upon the execution of the Services Agreement. The Services
Agreement may be terminated only by mutual consent of the parties.
INSURANCE AGREEMENT
The consummation of the Merger is conditioned upon the Company and Dr.
Krukemeyer entering into an insurance agreement (the "Insurance Agreement")
pursuant to which the Company will provide insurance benefits in the event of
Dr. Krukemeyer's death or permanent disability during the 10-year term of the
Insurance Agreement in an amount equal to $1.0 million per year from the date of
such permanent disability or death until the end of the term of the Insurance

The Non-Compete Agreement will also provide that if the length of time or
geographical area set forth in it is deemed too restrictive by a court, then
such time or area shall be reduced to a time or area that such court may deem
reasonable under the circumstances.
Under the Non-Compete Agreement, Dr. Krukemeyer will further agree that
following the Effective Time, neither he nor any of his affiliates will, without
the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, solicit for

OTHER TRANSACTIONS
A sole proprietorship doing business as Paracelsus Klinik, currently owned
by Dr. Krukemeyer, is a party to the Amended and Restated Know-how Contract,
dated as of October 1, 1988, as amended, with Paracelsus (the "Know-how
Contract"). The Know-how Contract provides for the transfer of specified
know-how to the Company. The Know-how Contract provides for an annual payment of
the
80
<PAGE>
lesser of $400,000 or 0.75% of Paracelsus' net operating revenue, as defined in
the Know-how Contract. The Know-how Contract will be terminated upon
consummation of the Merger. The Company's rights under the Know-how Contract
will be replaced with a royalty-free license from Paracelsus Klinik.
In November 1993, the Company lent Dr. Krukemeyer $3.2 million under a
promissory loan agreement. In April 1994, the Company lent Dr. Krukemeyer an
additional $1.8 million under a new $5.0 million promissory loan agreement that
replaced the existing $3.2 million promissory loan agreement. The note balance
and accrued interest are due in annual payments of $1.0 million each May 1,
commencing May 1, 1995 through May 1, 1999 with interest at 8% per annum. The
balance outstanding under the note at May 31, 1996 was $3.0 million. This loan
will be repaid in full contemporaneously with the payment by the Company of the
Dividend.
In August 1994, Dr. Krukemeyer and Internationale Nederlanden (U.S.) Capital
Corporation ("INCC") entered into certain arrangements relating to the extension
of credit by INCC to Dr. Krukemeyer. In connection with such extension of credit
to Dr. Krukemeyer, the Company entered into certain agreements with INCC
agreeing to pay to Dr. Krukemeyer, to the extent permitted by the provisions of
certain senior debt of the Company (i) transfer payments, such as dividends and
know-how payments in an amount equal of the consolidated net income of the
Company on a quarterly basis and (ii) salary and bonus payments equal to a
minimum of $2.0 million per year. The $10.5 million outstanding under this loan
will be repaid in full contemporaneously with the payment by Paracelsus of the
Dividend.
The Paracelsus Shareholder, which is wholly owned by Dr. Krukemeyer, and
certain Champion Investors, including an associated entity of Mr. Conroy, will
have rights to both require and participate in the filing of registration
statements by the Company with the Commission. See "-- Paracelsus Shareholder
Registration Rights Agreement" and "-- Champion Investors Registration Rights
Agreements."
Messrs. Hofmann and Lange serve as directors of the Company and also as
financial consultants under a contract entered into with the Company on July 4,
1983. The consulting services provided involve the coordination of the Company's
policies and strategies and, to a lesser extent, the financial affairs of the
Company. The consultants also advise the Company as to certain matters involving
the healthcare industry. These contracts provide for aggregate annual payments
of $250,000 each and reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses. The
Company believes that the terms of the Company's arrangements with Messrs.
Hofmann and Lange are at least as favorable as could have been obtained from
unaffiliated third parties. These consulting arrangements will be terminated
upon consummation of the Merger.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Upon the consummation of the Merger, the authorized capital stock of the
Company will consist of 150 million shares of Common Stock and 25 million shares
of Preferred Stock. The following summary description of the capital stock of
the Company is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles and
Bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the Registration
Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. As of July 10, 1996, there were
approximately 774 holders of record of Common Stock assuming consummation of the
Merger.
COMMON STOCK
Holders of Common Stock are subject to the prior rights of holders of
Preferred Stock which may be issued from time to time in the future. Holders of
Common Stock are entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may from time to
time be declared by the Board out of funds legally available therefor. Holders
of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters on which such
holders are entitled to vote and do not have any cumulative voting rights.
Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive, conversion, redemption or sinking
fund rights. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company, holders of Common Stock are entitled to share equally and ratably in
the assets of the Company, if any, remaining after the payment of all debts and
liabilities of the Company and the liquidation preference of any outstanding
Preferred Stock. The outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully paid and
nonassessable.
The Common Stock has been approved for listing on the NYSE upon consummation
of the Merger under the symbol "PLS," subject to official notice of issuance.
The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock will be Chemical Mellon
Shareholder Services.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Company will be authorized to issue up to 25 million shares of Preferred
Stock, par value $0.01 per share, which may be issued from time to time in one
or more series. The Board will be specifically authorized to establish the
number of shares in any series and to set the designation of any series and the
powers, preferences, and rights and the qualifications, limitations or
restrictions on each series of Preferred Stock. The holders of Preferred Stock
will not have any preemptive rights.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, prior to the Effective Time, Paracelsus
and Champion will present to the Board the Rights Agreement for approval,
subject to fiduciary duties and applicable law. In connection with any such
approval, prior to the Effective Time, the Board would authorize the issuance of
up to 1,500,000 shares of Preferred Stock to be designated as "Series A
Participating Preferred Stock" (the "Participating Preferred"). Upon issuance,
each share of Participating Preferred will be entitled to quarterly cash
dividends equal to the greater of 25% of the Exercise Price (as defined below)
or 100 times (subject to antidilution adjustments for stock dividends and stock
splits) the aggregate value of all dividends or other distributions declared on
Common Stock (other than distributions of Common Stock) since the last quarterly
dividend payment date. Once issued, the Participating Preferred will not be
redeemable by the Company.
Each share of Participating Preferred will be entitled to 100 votes (subject
to antidilution adjustments) on all matters submitted to a vote of the
shareholders of the Company voting together as one class with Common Stock. In
addition, if at any time dividends in an amount equal to six quarterly dividend
payments shall have accrued and be unpaid, the Board shall be increased by two
directors and holders of the Participating Preferred shall have the right to
elect two members to the Board until dividends on the Participating Preferred
have been declared and paid or set apart for payment. Except as required by
applicable law, holders of Participating Preferred will have no other special
voting rights. Whenever dividends or distributions on the Participating
Preferred are in arrears, the Company will be prohibited from declaring or
paying dividends or distributions on, and the Company and any subsidiary will be
prohibited from redeeming or acquiring for value, any stock ranking junior to
the Participating Preferred as to dividends or upon liquidation. During any such
arrearage, the Company may declare or pay dividends on stock ranking on a parity
with the Participating Preferred
88
<PAGE>
as to dividends or upon liquidation only if declared or paid ratably with the
Participating Preferred. During any such arrearage, the Company and any
subsidiary will be prohibited from redeeming or acquiring for value any such
parity stock or any Participating Preferred, except pursuant to an exchange of
parity stock for stock ranking junior to the Participating Preferred or pursuant
to a purchase offer to the holders of Participating Preferred and holders of
parity stock on terms the Board determines to be fair and equitable.
The Participating Preferred will rank junior to all other series of
Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets,
unless the terms of any such series shall provide otherwise.
Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the
Participating Preferred will be entitled to a liquidation preference of $100 per
share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends, subject to the prior rights of any
series of Preferred Stock ranking in liquidation senior to the Participating
Preferred. In the event of any shortfall in the assets available for
distribution, any such liquidating distribution shall be made ratably to the
Participating Preferred and any other series of Preferred Stock ranking on a
parity in proportion to their relative liquidation preferences. Following such
payment, no additional liquidating distributions will be permitted to be made on
the Participating Preferred until each share of Common Stock has received $1.00
(subject to antidilution adjustments). Thereafter, any remaining assets shall be
distributed to each share of Participating Preferred and each share of Common
Stock in the ratio of 100 to 1 (subject to antidilution adjustments).
DESCRIPTION OF RIGHTS
GENERAL
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, prior to the Effective Time, Paracelsus
and Champion will present to the Board the Rights Agreement for approval,
subject to fiduciary duties and applicable law. As long as the Rights (as
defined in the Rights Agreement) are attached to the Common Stock, the Company
will automatically issue one Right with each new share of Common Stock so that
all such shares will have Rights attached.
The Rights will not prevent a takeover of the Company. However, the Rights
may cause substantial dilution to a person or group that acquires beneficial
ownership of 25% or more of the Total Voting Power of the Company unless the
Rights are first redeemed by the Board. Nevertheless, the Rights should not
interfere with a transaction that is in the best interests of the Company and
its shareholders because the Rights can be redeemed on or prior to the close of
business on the Flip-in Date (as hereinafter defined), before the consummation
of such transaction, except that a majority of the directors of the Company who
are not Affiliates, Associates, nominees or representatives of an Acquiring
Person (as hereinafter defined) may need to approve the redemption.
RIGHTS DISTRIBUTION
At such time as the Rights Agreement is adopted by the Board, pursuant
thereto a dividend (a "Rights Distribution") of one Right will be declared for
each outstanding share of Common Stock held of record at the close of business
on the record date set by the Board (the "Rights Record Time"), or issued
thereafter and prior to the Separation Time (as defined below), including those
shares to be issued in the Merger, and thereafter pursuant to options, warrants
and convertible securities outstanding at the Separation Time. Each Right will
entitle its registered holder to purchase from the Company, after the Separation
Time, one one-hundredth of a share of Participating Preferred Stock for an
exercise price to be determined by the Board (the "Exercise Price"). As a result
of the Rights Distribution, one Right will be distributed in respect of each
share of Common Stock then outstanding or thereafter as issued by the Company,
including the shares of Common Stock to be issued to holders of Champion Capital
Stock in the Merger.
EVIDENCE OF RIGHTS
The Rights will be evidenced by the Common Stock certificates until the
close of business on the earlier of (either, the "Separation Time") (i) the
tenth business day (or such later date as the Board
89
<PAGE>
may from time to time fix by resolution adopted prior to the Separation Time
that would otherwise have occurred) after the date on which any Person (as
defined in the Rights Agreement) commences a tender or exchange offer which, if
consummated, would result in such Person's becoming an Acquiring Person and (ii)
the first date (the "Flip-in Date") of public announcement by the Company or any
Person that such Person has become an Acquiring Person, other than as a result
of a Flip-over Transaction or Event (as defined below); PROVIDED that if the
foregoing results in the Separation Time being prior to the Rights Record Time,
the Separation Time shall be the Rights Record Time; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that
if a tender or exchange offer referred to in clause (i) is cancelled, terminated
or otherwise withdrawn prior to the Separation Time without the purchase of any
shares of stock pursuant thereto, such offer shall be deemed never to have been
made. An Acquiring Person is any Person having Beneficial Ownership (as defined
in the Rights Agreement) of 25% or more of the Total Voting Power of the
Company, which term shall not include (i) the Company, any wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company or any employee stock ownership or other employee
benefit plan of the Company, (ii) any Person who is the Beneficial Owner of 25%
or more of the Total Voting Power of the Company as of the date of the Rights
Agreement or who shall become the beneficial owner of 25% or more of the Total
Voting Power of the Company solely as a result of an acquisition of Voting
Securities of the Company by the Company, until such time as such Person
acquires additional Voting Securities of the Company, other than through a
dividend or stock split, (iii) any Person who becomes an Acquiring Person
without any plan or intent to seek or affect control of the Company if such
Person, upon notice by the Company, promptly divests sufficient securities such
that such 25% or greater Beneficial Ownership ceases, (iv) any Person who
Beneficially Owns Voting Securities of the Company consisting solely of (A)
shares acquired pursuant to the grant or exercise of an option granted by the
Company in connection with an agreement to merge with, or acquire, the Company
at a time at which there is no Acquiring Person, (B) shares owned by such Person
and its Affiliates and Associates (as such terms are defined in the Rights
Agreement) at the time of such grant and (C) shares, amounting to less than 1%
of the outstanding Voting Securities of the Company, acquired by Affiliates and
Associates of such Person after the time of such grant or (v) any Person who
shall become the Beneficial Owner of 25% or more of the Total Voting Power of
the Company solely as a result of an acquisition of Voting Securities of the
Company pursuant to the Shareholder Agreement, until such time as such Person
acquires additional Voting Securities of the Company (other than in accordance
with the Shareholder Agreement), other than through a dividend or stock split.
Dr. Krukemeyer, as the owner of all of the outstanding shares of the Common
Stock prior to the Effective Time, will not be an Acquiring Person under the
Rights Agreement as a result of such ownership immediately after the Merger.
The Rights Agreement will provide that, until the Separation Time, the
Rights will be transferred with and only with the Common Stock. The Common Stock
certificates issued after the Rights Record Time but prior to the Separation
Time shall evidence one Right for each share of the Common Stock represented
thereby. The Rights Agreement will further provide that promptly following the
Separation Time separate certificates evidencing the Rights ("Rights
Certificates") will be mailed to holders of record of the Common Stock at the
Separation Time.
EXERCISABILITY OF RIGHTS
The Rights will not be exercisable until the business day following the
Separation Time. The Rights will expire on the earliest of (i) the Exchange Time
(as defined below), (ii) the close of business on the expiration date of the
Rights Agreement and (iii) the date on which the Rights are redeemed as
described below (in any such case, the "Expiration Time").
The Exercise Price and the number of Rights outstanding, or in certain
circumstances the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights, are
subject to adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution in certain specified
events.

<PAGE>
"FLIP-IN" TRANSACTIONS OR EVENTS
Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, the Company will agree, in the event that
prior to the Expiration Time a Flip-in Date occurs, to take such action as is
necessary to ensure and provide, to the extent permitted by applicable law, that
each Right (other than Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person or any
Affiliate or Associate thereof, which Rights shall become void) will constitute
the right to purchase from the Company, upon the exercise thereof in accordance
with the terms of the Rights Agreement, that number of shares of the Common
Stock or the Participating Preferred Stock having an aggregate Market Price (as
defined in the Rights Agreement), on the date of the public announcement of an
Acquiring Person's becoming such (the "Stock Acquisition Date") that gave rise
to the Flip-in Date, equal to twice the Exercise Price for an amount in cash
equal to the then current Exercise Price. Alternatively, the Rights Agreement
will provide that the Board may, at its option, at any time after a Flip-in Date
and prior to the time that an Acquiring Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of
more than 50% of the Total Voting Power of the Company, elect to exchange all
(but not less than all) of the then outstanding Rights (other than Rights
Beneficially Owned by the Acquiring Person or any Affiliate or Associate
thereof, which Rights shall become void) for shares of Common Stock at an
exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock per Right, appropriately adjusted to
reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after
the date of the Separation Time (the "Flip Ratio"). Immediately upon such action
by the Board (the "Exchange Time"), the right to exercise the Rights will
terminate and each Right will thereafter represent only the right to receive a
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Flip Ratio.
The Rights Agreement will provide that whenever the Company may become
obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of or in exchange for
Rights as described in the preceding paragraph, at its option, it may substitute
therefor shares of Participating Preferred Stock at a ratio of one one-hundredth
of a share of Participating Preferred for each share of Common Stock so
issuable.
"FLIP-OVER" TRANSACTIONS OR EVENTS
In the event that prior to the Expiration Time, the Company enters into,
consummates or permits to occur a transaction or series of transactions after
the time an Acquiring Person has become such in which, directly or indirectly,
(i) the Company consolidates or merges or participates in a binding share
exchange with any other person if, at the time of the consolidation, merger or
share exchange or at the time the Company enters into an agreement with respect
to such consolidation, merger or share exchange, the Acquiring Person controls
the Board and any term of or arrangement concerning the treatment of shares of
capital stock in such merger, consolidation or share exchange relating to the
Acquiring Person is not identical to the terms and arrangements relating to
other holders of Voting Securities of the Company, (ii) the Company sells or
otherwise transfers (or one or more of its subsidiaries shall sell or otherwise
transfer) assets (A) aggregating more than 50% of the assets (measured by either
book value or fair market value) or (B) generating more than 50% of the
operating income or cash flow of the Company and its subsidiaries (taken as a
whole) to any other person (other than the Company or one or more of its wholly
owned subsidiaries) or to two or more such persons which are affiliated or
otherwise acting in concert, if, at the time of such sale or transfer of assets
or at the time the Company (or any such subsidiary) enters into an agreement
with respect to such sale or transfer, the Acquiring Person controls the Company
Board or (iii) any Acquiring Person (A) sells, purchases, leases, exchanges,
mortgages, pledges, transfers or otherwise acquires or disposes of, to, from, or
with, as the case may be, the Company or any of its subsidiaries, over any
period of 12 consecutive calendar months, assets (x) having an aggregate fair
market value of more than $15.0 million or (y) on terms and conditions less
favorable to the Company than the Company would be able to obtain through
arm's-length negotiations with an unaffiliated third party, (B) receives any
compensation for services from the Company or any of its subsidiaries, other
than compensation for full-time employment as a regular employee at rates in
accordance with the Company's (or its subsidiaries') past practices, (C)
receives the benefit, directly or indirectly (except proportionately as a
stockholder), over any period of 12 consecutive calendar months, of any loans,
advances, guarantees, pledges, insurance, reinsurance or other financial
assistance or any tax credits or other tax advantage provided
91
<PAGE>
by the Company or any of its subsidiaries involving an aggregate principal
amount in excess of $5.0 million or an aggregate cost or transfer of benefits
from the Company or any of its subsidiaries in excess of $5.0 million or, in any
case, on terms and conditions less favorable to the Company than the Company
would be able to obtain through arm's-length negotiations with a third party, or
(D) increases by more than 1% its proportionate share of the outstanding shares
of any class of Voting Securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries as a
result of any acquisition from the Company (with or without consideration), any
reclassification of securities (including any reverse stock split), or
recapitalization, of the Company, or any merger or consolidation of the Company
with any of its subsidiaries or any other transaction or series of transactions
(whether or not with or into or otherwise involving an Acquiring Person) (a
"Flip-over Transaction or Event"), the Company will take such action as shall be
necessary to ensure, and will not enter into, consummate or permit to occur such
Flip-over Transaction or Event until it will have entered into a supplemental
agreement with the person engaging in such Flip-over Transaction or Event or the
parent corporation thereof (the "Flip-over Entity"), for the benefit of the
holders of the Rights, PROVIDED that upon consummation or occurrence of the
Flip-over Transaction or Event (i) each Right will thereafter constitute the
right to purchase from the Flip-over Entity, upon exercise thereof in accordance
with the terms of the Rights Agreement, that number of shares of common stock of
the Flip-over Entity having an aggregate Market Price on the date of
consummation or occurrence of such Flip-over Transaction or Event equal to twice
the Exercise Price for an amount in cash equal to the then current Exercise
Price and (ii) the Flip-over Entity will thereafter be liable for, and will
assume, by virtue of such Flip-over Transaction or Event and such supplemental
agreement, all the obligations and duties of the Company pursuant to the Rights
Agreement.
For purposes of the foregoing description, the term "Acquiring Person" will
include any Acquiring Person and its Affiliates and Associates counted together
as a single Person.
REDEMPTION OF RIGHTS
The Rights Agreement will also provide that the Board may, at its option, at
any time prior to the close of business on the Flip-in Date, redeem all (but not
less than all) of the then outstanding Rights at a price of $0.01 per Right (the
"Redemption Price"), as provided in the Rights Agreement. Immediately upon the
action of the Board electing to redeem the Rights, without any further action
and without any notice, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and each
Right will thereafter represent only the right to receive the Redemption Price
in cash for each Right so held.
NO SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
The holders of Rights will, solely by reason of their ownership of Rights,
have no rights as shareholders of the Company, including without limitation the
right to vote or to receive dividends.
AMENDMENT
The Rights Agreement will provide that at any time prior to the Separation
Time, the Rights Agreement may be amended in any manner without the approval of
the holders of the Rights, except to amend the Redemption Price and the
Expiration Time.

PRICE RANGE OF CHAMPION COMMON STOCK
Prior to the Merger, the Company has been wholly owned by the Paracelsus
Shareholder and there has been no public trading market for the Common Stock.
The Common Stock has been approved for listing on the NYSE upon consummation of
the Merger under the symbol "PLS," subject to official notice of issuance.
However, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any market that may
develop for the Common Stock, the ability of holders to sell their Common Stock
on the price at which holders will be able to sell their Common Stock.
The Champion common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Champion Common
Stock"), is listed on the American Stock Exchange (the "AMEX") under the symbol
"CHC." Prior to the Effective Time, the shares of Champion Common Stock will be
delisted from the AMEX. Champion has filed an original listing application with
the NYSE. It is anticipated that Champion's application for the listing of the
Champion Common Stock on the NYSE under the symbol "CHC" will be approved
subject to official notice of issuance prior to Effective Time. Upon the
consummation of the Merger, the Champion Common Stock will be delisted from the
NYSE. Champion acquired AmeriHealth on December 6, 1994, through the AmeriHealth
Merger recorded as a reverse acquisition and thereby became a publicly listed
company on the AMEX. Prior to such reverse merger, the Champion Common Stock had
no existing trading market. The shares of AmeriHealth were previously listed on
the AMEX and traded under the symbol "AHH."
For purposes of reporting stock information, AmeriHealth is considered the
predecessor of Champion; accordingly, the following table sets forth the high
and low sales prices for the common stock of AmeriHealth through December 6,
1994, and Champion Common Stock thereafter on the AMEX, based on published
financial sources. The sales prices have been adjusted to reflect a 5.70358 to 1
reverse stock split effective December 6, 1994. Other than a $0.085 per share
distribution to AmeriHealth stockholders in connection with the AmeriHealth
Merger, Champion has never paid any dividend with respect to the Champion Common
Stock and does not intend to declare any dividend prior to the Effective Time.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE ISSUANCE AND SALE
Sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock in the open market or the
availability of such shares for sale could adversely affect prevailing market
prices for the Common Stock. See "Risk Factors -- Shares Eligible for Future
Issuance and Sale."
Upon consummation of the Merger, 49,447,167 shares of Common Stock will be
outstanding. In addition, 7,515,740 shares of Common Stock are currently
expected to be reserved for issuance to holders of Options and Warrants and
other rights to acquire shares of Common Stock. Following the Merger, certain
holders of shares of Common Stock and of Warrants will have certain rights to
require the Company to register Common Stock under the Securities Act under
registration rights agreements with the Company. Upon consummation of the Equity
Offering, the shares of Common Stock covered by these registration rights will
include 29,771,742 shares beneficially owned by the Paracelsus Shareholder and
approximately 11,755,948 shares beneficially owned by the Champion Investors. In
addition, the Company currently intends to register up to 10,087,137 shares of
Common Stock to be issued in connection with certain employee benefit programs.
The Company, the Selling Shareholders, the Company's executive officers and
directors and certain other shareholders of the Company have agreed that for a
period of 120 days from the date of this Prospectus, they will not, without the
prior written consent of Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities Corporation,
offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose
of or transfer any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock or in any other manner transfer all or a portion
of the economic consequences associated with the ownership of any such Common
Stock (other than the granting by the Company of stock options pursuant to the
Company's exisiting stock option plans and the issuing by the Company of shares
of Common Stock upon the exercise of an Option or Warrant or a subscription
right outstanding on the date of this Prospectus) except for the shares of
Common Stock offered and sold in connection with the Equity Offering.

(the "Underwriting Agreement"), the underwriters named below (the
"Underwriters"), for whom Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities Corporation
("DLJ"), Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc., Smith Barney Inc. and The Chicago Corporation
are acting as representatives (the "Representatives"), have severally agreed to
purchase 5,200,000 shares of Common Stock from the Company and 2,695,000 shares
of Common Stock from the Selling Shareholders. The number of shares of Common
Stock that each Underwriter has agreed to purchase is set forth opposite its
name below.

</TABLE>
The Underwriting Agreement provides that the several Underwriters will be
obligated to purchase all of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby (other
than the shares covered by the over-allotment option described below) if any of
such shares are purchased.
The Representatives have advised the Company and the Selling Shareholders
that the Underwriters propose to offer the shares of Common Stock directly to
the public initially at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of
this Prospectus and to certain dealers (who may include the Underwriters) at
such price less a discount not in excess of $ per share, and that the
Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess
of $ per share on sales to any other Underwriters and certain other
dealers. After the shares of Common Stock are released for sale to the public,
the public offering price and other selling terms may be changed by the
Representatives.
The Selling Shareholders have granted to the Underwriters an option,
exercisable for 30 days from the date of this Prospectus, to purchase up to
1,184,250 additional shares of Common Stock from the Selling Shareholders at the
public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions, solely for
the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the
sale of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby. To the extent that the
Underwriters exercise such option, each of the Underwriters will become
obligated, subject to certain conditions, to purchase the same proportion of
such additional shares as the number of shares set forth opposite such
Underwriter's name in the above table bears to 7,895,000 shares of Common Stock.
Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company and the Selling
Shareholders have agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
The Company, the Selling Shareholders, the Company's executive officers and
directors and certain other shareholders of the Company have agreed that for a
period of 120 days from the date of this Prospectus they will not, without the
prior written consent of DLJ, offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to
purchase or otherwise dispose of or transfer any shares of Common Stock or
securities convertible or exchangeable for Common Stock or in any other manner
transfer all or a portion of the economic consequences associated with the
ownership of any such Common Stock (other than the granting by the Company of
stock options pursuant to the Company's existing stock option plans and the
issuing by the Company of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of an
95
<PAGE>
Option or Warrant or a subscription right outstanding on the date of this
Prospectus) except for the shares of Common Stock offered and sold in connection
with the Equity Offering. See "Shares Eligible for Future Issuance and Sale."
The Company and the Selling Shareholders have been advised by the
Representatives that the Underwriters do not intend to confirm sales to any
account over which they exercise discretionary authority.
Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock.
The public offering price will be determined by negotiations between the Company
and the Representatives. Among the principal factors that will be considered in
such negotiations are the history of and the prospects for the industry in which
Paracelsus and Champion compete, the ability of the Company's management, the
past and present operations of Paracelsus and Champion, the historical results
of operations of Paracelsus and Champion, the historical trading prices for
Champion Common Stock, the prospects for future earnings of the Company, the
general condition of the securities markets at the time of the Equity Offering
and the recent market prices of securities of generally comparable companies.
Immediately after giving effect to the Merger, affiliates of DLJ will
beneficially own shares of Common Stock representing 5.1% of the issued and
outstanding Common Stock. In addition, DLJ and its affiliates are parties to the
Participants Agreement and hold in the aggregate $5.2 million aggregate
principal amount of the Champion Series D Notes. DLJ is also acting as the lead
managing underwriter for the Notes Offering. DLJ has acted as Champion's
financial advisor in the Merger and has performed investment banking and other
services for Paracelsus in the past including acting as a lead manager in the
sale of $75.0 million of the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes in October 1993
and has received usual and customary fees for such services. In addition, DLJ
has performed investment banking and other services for Champion in the past and
has received usual and customary fees for such services.
VALIDITY OF COMMON STOCK
The validity of the Common Stock offered hereby will be passed upon for the
Company by Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, Los Angeles, California. The
validity of the Common Stock will be passed upon for the Underwriters by
Sullivan & Cromwell, Los Angeles, California. Sullivan & Cromwell also

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Board of Directors and Shareholder
Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Paracelsus
Healthcare Corporation and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1994 and 1995, and
the related consolidated statements of income, shareholder's equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 1995. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Paracelsus
Healthcare Corporation and subsidiaries at September 30, 1994 and 1995, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended September 30, 1995, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, as of
October 1, 1994, the Company changed its method of accounting for marketable
securities.

PARACELSUS HEALTHCARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation (the "Company") owns, leases and operates
22 acute care, psychiatric and specialty hospitals, four skilled nursing
facilities and 13 medical office buildings. In addition, the Company is a
partner in seven partnerships (six being general and one being limited
partnerships), with ownership equal to or in excess of 50% in five, and less
than 50% in two. In May 1994, the founder, Chairman of the Board and sole
shareholder of the Company passed away with ownership of the Company and the
role of Chairman of the Board succeeding to his son, Dr. Manfred George
Krukemeyer, who is a citizen of the Federal Republic of Germany.
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned or majority owned subsidiaries and partnerships. All
significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in
consolidation. Minority interests represent income allocated to the minority
partners' investment.
OPERATING REVENUES
Operating revenues include healthcare services provided to patients which
are reported on an accrual basis in the period in which the services are
provided at established rates, net of third-party reductions related to
contractual adjustments for Medicare, Medicaid, managed care and other programs.
Contractual adjustments totaled $307,868,000, $394,110,000 and $407,888,000, for
1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
Contractual adjustments include differences between established billing
rates and amounts estimated by management as reimbursable under various
fixed-price, cost reimbursement and other contractual arrangements. In addition,
other activities including investment earnings, gains on disposal of facilities
(see Note 10), rental income and income from partnerships, all of which are used
exclusively for healthcare-related services provided by the Company, are
considered operating revenues.
Normal estimation differences between final settlements and amounts
recognized in previous years are reported as contractual adjustments in the
current year. The administrative procedures for the cost-based programs preclude
final determination of the payments due or receivable until after the Company's
cost reports are audited or otherwise reviewed by and settled with the
respective program agencies. The Company's estimate for final settlements of all
years through 1995 has been reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
Approximately 57%, 60% and 63% of the Company's gross revenues are for services
to Medicare, Medicaid, and Blue Cross patients for 1993, 1994 and 1995,
respectively.
MARKETABLE SECURITIES
As of October 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115 ("SFAS No. 115"), "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities." In accordance with SFAS No. 115, prior period financial
statements have not been restated to reflect the change in accounting principle.
The adoption of SFAS No. 115 had no effect on net income, but decreased
marketable securities as of October 1, 1994, by $102,000, decreased
shareholder's equity by $67,000 and increased deferred tax assets by $35,000.
Management determines the appropriate classification of marketable
securities (corporate bonds and government securities) at the time of purchase.
Marketable securities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Company has
the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity.
F-10
<PAGE>
PARACELSUS HEALTHCARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Held-to-maturity securities are stated at amortized cost. Marketable securities
not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale.
Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value, with the unrealized
gains and losses, net of tax, reported in a separate component of shareholder's
equity. The Company also determined that available-for-sale securities are
available for use in current operations and, accordingly, classified such
securities as current assets without regard to the securities' contractual
maturity dates.
The amortized cost of marketable securities classified as held-to-maturity
or available-for-sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included in operating revenues.
Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be other-
than-temporary are included in operating revenues. The cost of securities sold
is based on the specific identification method.
SUPPLIES
Supplies consisting of drugs and other supplies are stated at cost
(first-in, first-out method) which is not in excess of market.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment is stated on the basis of cost. Depreciation is
computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
respective assets.
ORGANIZATION AND OTHER COSTS
Organization, loan and other costs (included in other assets) have been
capitalized and are amortized over periods ranging from 24 to 480 months. The
balance of organization, loan, and other costs at September 30, 1994 and 1995,
amounted to $16,469,000 and $18,224,000, respectively. The related accumulated
amortization at September 30, 1994 and 1995, amounted to $5,766,000 and
$4,835,000, respectively.
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS No. 121"), "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of,"
which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in
operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets'
carrying amount. The statement also addresses the accounting for long-lived
assets that are expected to be disposed of. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 121
on October 1, 1996, and, based on current circumstances, does not believe the
effect of the adoption will be material.
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consists principally of investments in marketable
securities and commercial premiums receivable. The Company's investments in
marketable securities are managed by professional investment managers within
guidelines established by the Board of Directors, which, as a matter of policy,
limit the amounts which may be invested in any one issuer. Concentrations of
credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited since a majority of
the receivables are due from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Management does
not believe that there are any credit risks associated with these governmental
agencies. Commercial insurance, managed care and private receivables consist of
receivables from various payors, subject to differing economic conditions, and
do not represent any concentrated credit risks to the Company. Furthermore,
management continually monitors and adjusts its reserves and allowances
associated with these receivables.

During 1992, the Company changed its method of reporting income for tax
purposes from the cash basis to accrual basis. Under the cash basis, the Company
deferred approximately $72,000,000 of taxable income for periods ending prior to
October 1, 1991. Of the amounts deferred, $14,431,000, $11,429,000 and
$11,794,000 were included in 1993, 1994 and 1995 taxable income, respectively.
The effect of the change in reporting has been to increase the Company's income
for tax purposes, consistent with federal and state regulations, through 1997.

On October 17, 1993, the Company completed a $75,000,000 public offering of
9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") due 2003. The Notes, which are
subordinated to all senior indebtedness of the Company, are redeemable at the
option of the Company beginning October 15, 1998, at 104.94% of face value,
declining annually to 100% of face value on or after October 15, 2000, or at the
option of the holder upon the occurrence of a change in control, as defined. The
net proceeds from the offering were used to repay the 14.375% Senior
Subordinated Notes of $18,650,000 at a redemption price of 102.05% plus accrued
interest, and the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility of $54,500,000.
The extinguishment of the 14.375% Senior Subordinated Notes resulted in a loss
of $497,000 (net of income tax benefit of $346,000) which was recorded as an
extraordinary loss in 1994.
The Company's interest rate swap agreement, which converted the variable
interest rate on a portion of its revolving credit facility to a fixed interest
rate, terminated during May 1994. The interest rate swap agreement fixed the
interest rate on $20,000,000 of its bank debt at 7.8%. Each

quarter the Company paid or received an amount equal to the difference between
the fixed interest rate and the LIBOR rate. Net interest payments of $400,000
were recognized as an adjustment to interest expense in 1994.
The credit facility and the senior subordinated notes require the Company,
among other things, to maintain specified financial ratios, and restrict the
sale, lease or disposal of its assets.

in March 1993, entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated trust (the
"Trust") to sell the hospital's eligible accounts receivable ("Eligible
Receivables") on a nonrecourse basis to the Trust. A special purpose subsidiary
of a major lending institution agreed to provide up to $65,000,000 in commercial
paper financing to the Trust to finance the purchase of the Eligible Receivables

The Company has a Know-How contract with an affiliate in Germany owned by
the Shareholder. This contract provides for the transfer of certain specified
Know-How to the Company relating to the operation of healthcare facilities and
the healthcare industry in general. The contract limited payments to $400,000
per year, subject to annual revisions. On October 1, 1994, the Know-How contract
was amended to limit the Know-How payments to the lesser of 3/4 percent of the
Company's net operating revenue, as defined, or $400,000. Such payments totaled
$400,000 per year for 1993, 1994 and 1995. In addition, the Company reimbursed

Certain of these leases include renewal options, contain normal cost
escalation clauses and require payment of property taxes, insurance and
maintenance costs. The aggregate rental expense was $11,911,000, $17,677,000 and
$19,234,000 for 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
In August 1994, Dr. Krukemeyer borrowed $15,000,000 from a lending
institution (the "Lending Institution") and pledged 45 percent of his stock in
the Company to secure the borrowing. To facilitate Dr. Krukemeyer's arrangements
with the Lending Institution, the Company amended its $125,000,000 Revolving
Credit Facility Agreement (the "Credit Agreement" -- see Note 3) with certain
financial institutions (the "Financial Institutions") pursuant to which the
Financial Institutions agreed to release 45 percent of their collateral interest
in the Company's stock. In the event that either the Company defaults under the
Credit Agreement or Dr. Krukemeyer defaults under his obligation to the Lending
Institution, the Lending Institution would have the right to foreclose on its 45
percent collateral interest in the Company's stock.
In connection with the extension of credit to Dr. Krukemeyer by the Lending
Institution, the Company entered into agreements with the Lending Institution
agreeing to pay, to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement and Indenture
governing the Company's outstanding 9.875 percent Senior Subordinated Notes due
2003, (i) transfer payments, such as dividends and Know-How payments to Dr.
Krukemeyer in an amount equal to 50 percent of the consolidated net income of
the Company and its subsidiaries on a quarterly basis, and (ii) salary and bonus
payments to Dr. Krukemeyer equal to a minimum of $2,000,000 per year.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
The Company is defending itself against a lawsuit filed by Aetna Life
Insurance Company ("Aetna") alleging false diagnosis and billings submitted for
treatment of Aetna patients at the Company's psychiatric facilities. Management
denies these allegations and believes the ultimate resolution of the lawsuit
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position.
The Company is subject to claims and suits in the ordinary course of
business, including those arising from care and treatment afforded at the
Company's facilities and maintains insurance and, where appropriate, reserves
with respect to the possible liability arising from such claims. Management
believes the ultimate resolution of the proceedings presently pending against
the Company will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position.
9. SELF-INSURANCE RESERVES
Effective October 1, 1992, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary,
Hospital Assurance Company Ltd. ("HAC") to insure general and professional
liability and workers' compensation claims up to $500,000 and $250,000 per
occurrence, respectively. Between October 1, 1987 and the formation of HAC, the
Company was self-insured for the first $500,000 of general and professional
liability claims. The Company has third-party excess insurance coverage over the
first $500,000 per occurrence up to $100,000,000. Accrued self-insurance
reserves include estimates for reported and unreported claims based upon
actuarial projections. The general and professional liability reserves for 1993,
1994 and 1995, are discounted at 6.5%, 6.5% and 7.0%, respectively.
The excess insurance coverage provides for a retrospective adjustment to
premiums to cover losses incurred by the insurance company for all policy years.
This general premium adjustment is not to exceed 100% of the standard premium
for each individual policy year. The potential maximum general premium
adjustment for the period October 1, 1987, through September 30, 1995, is
$14,807,000. No general premium adjustment has been made through September 30,
1995, and no significant adjustment is anticipated based upon current claim
projections.
10. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS
On September 30, 1995, the Company sold Womans Hospital in Mississippi to
the facility's lessee for $17,800,000 in cash which resulted in a gain of
$9,189,000 (included in operating revenues). Previously, in August 1994, the
Company divested the operations of Womans Hospital and entered into an operating
lease agreement with the lessee which granted the lessee an option to purchase
the facility at a cash flow multiple defined in the lease agreement. Also, in
August 1994, the lessee purchased land and a medical office building from the
Company for approximately $1,000,000. In October 1993, the Company acquired the
land and medical office building along with cash of $698,000 in exchange for
land it held with a carrying value of $1,772,000.
On September 5, 1995, the Company acquired the real and personal property
assets, and inventory of Jackson County Hospital, a 44-bed acute facility in
Gainesboro, Tennessee, for $582,000 in cash. The Company is operating the
facility under the name of Cumberland River Hospital -- South.
During August 1995, the Company sold the real and personal property assets
and inventory of Advanced Healthcare Diagnostic Services, a mobile diagnostic
imaging company, for $764,000 in cash which resulted in a loss of $163,000
(included in operating revenues).
On August 1, 1995, the Company purchased the accounts receivable, equipment
and intangible assets of Keith Medical Group, an outpatient medical clinic
located in Hollywood, California, for $2,428,000.

On June 30, 1994, the Company assumed an operating lease of the real and
personal property assets of a 60-bed rehabilitation hospital located in Chico,
California, and for approximately $400,000 acquired working capital and
equipment.
On August 31, 1993, the Company purchased the real and personal property
assets of Desert Palms Community Hospital in Palmdale, California for
approximately $4,500,000 in cash. The funds were borrowed from the Company's
credit facility.
On June 30, 1993, the Company executed an operating lease of the real
property assets of Halstead Hospital in Halstead, Kansas. The Company also
entered into a capital lease for the purchase of substantially all of the
personal property at a cost of $3,000,000. American Health Properties, a real
estate investment trust that invests primarily in acute care hospitals, is the
lessor under both the real property operating lease and the capital lease.
On March 1, 1993, the Company entered into an operating lease for the lease
of the real property assets of Elmwood Medical Center in Jefferson, Louisiana.
American Health Properties is also the lessor under the real property operating
lease. The Company also acquired substantially all the personal property at a
cost of $9,432,000, including the assumption of existing capital leases.
The following table summarizes the unaudited pro forma consolidated results
of the Company and its material acquisitions and dispositions as though the
acquisitions and dispositions occurred at the beginning of each of the periods
presented giving effect to investment earnings on the proceeds from the sale of
Womans Hospital, the conversion of the Womans real property operating lease to a
sale, and the amortization of the excess of the purchase price over the fair
value of assets acquired. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily
indicative of the actual consolidated results of operations that would have
occurred for the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1995, had the acquisitions
and dispositions occurred at the beginning of each period and is not intended to
be indicative of results which may occur in the future.

11. RESTRUCTURING AND UNUSUAL CHARGES
On April 24, 1995, the Company closed the Bellwood Health Center psychiatric
facility due to declining admissions. The facility's patients were transferred
to another of the Company's psychiatric facilities. Management is currently
evaluating the disposition of the physical plant. In connection with the
closure, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $973,000 for employee
severance benefits and contract termination costs. In addition, during 1995, the
Company paid certain executives special bonuses of $4,177,000 for services
provided to the Company. The special bonuses were accounted for as an unusual
charge.
12. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating
its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The carrying amount reported in the balance
sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value.

12. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
LONG-TERM DEBT: The fair values of the Company's long-term debt are
estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company's
current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing
arrangements.
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments
at September 30 are as follows:

Mortgages payable............................. 4,755,000 4,899,000 4,629,000 4,684,000
</TABLE>
The carrying amount of the Company's notes payable under revolving credit
facility were reasonable approximations of their fair value.
It was not practical to estimate the fair value of notes and other
receivables because of the lack of a quoted market price and the inability to
estimate fair value without incurring excessive costs. Management believes there
has been no impairment of the carrying value of notes and other receivables.
13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On November 28, 1995, the Company entered into an Asset Exchange Agreement
and a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Exchange Transaction") to acquire
substantially all of the assets and operations of Pioneer Valley Hospital
("Pioneer"), a 139-bed hospital located in West Valley City, Utah, Davis
Hospital and Medical Center, a 120-bed hospital located in Layton, Utah, and
Santa Rosa Medical Center, a 129-bed hospital located in Milton, Florida, in
exchange for $38,500,000 in cash, and its Peninsula Medical Center, a 119-bed
hospital located in Ormond Beach, Florida, Elmwood Medical Center ("Elmwood"), a
135-bed hospital located in Jefferson, Louisiana, and Halstead Hospital
("Halstead"), a 190-bed hospital located in Halstead, Kansas. Coincident with
the Exchange Transaction, the Company will purchase the real property of Elmwood
and Halstead from a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for $52,000,000,
exchange the Elmwood and Halstead real property for Pioneer's real property, and
sell the Pioneer real property to the REIT (the "Real Property Purchase and Sale
Transaction"). The Exchange Transaction and the Real Property Purchase and Sale
Transaction are expected to close in January 1996 and are not expected to result
in a material gain or loss.
On December 8, 1995, the Company entered into a new Credit Facility which
increased the Company's Credit Facility from $125,000,000 to $230,000,000. The
Credit Facility is being increased to finance future acquisitions, refinance the
existing Credit Facility borrowings and for general corporate purposes,
including working capital and capital expenditures. The new Credit Facility
contains pricing terms more favorable to the Company, will be secured by the
stock of the Paracelsus subsidiaries and extends the conversion feature to a
term loan on November 30, 1998.

PARACELSUS HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have
been prepared by Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation (the "Company") without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally
included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
SEC rules and regulations; nevertheless, the management of the Company believes
that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial
statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K,
filed with the SEC in December 1995. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to
present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company with respect
to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, and the consolidated
results of its operations and its cash flows for the interim periods then ended,
have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
NOTE 2. MARKETABLE SECURITIES
On November 15, 1995, the FASB staff issued a Special Report, A Guide to
Implementation of Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities. In accordance with provisions in that Special Report, the
Company chose to reclassify securities from held-to-maturity to
available-for-sale. At the date of transfer the amortized cost of those
securities was $2,000,000 and the unrealized loss on those securities was
$13,000, which was included in shareholder's equity.
NOTE 3. CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to claims and suits in the ordinary course of
business, including those arising from care and treatment afforded at the
Company's facilities and maintains insurance and, where appropriate, reserves
with respect to the possible liability arising from such claims. Management
believes the ultimate resolution of the proceedings presently pending against
the Company(or any of its subsidiaries) will not have a material effect on the
Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
NOTE 4. ACQUISITIONS/CLOSURES
On April 11, 1996, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to
acquire a 125-bed acute care hospital located in Salt Lake City, Utah and its
surrounding campus for approximately $70 million in cash. The transaction is
expected to close in May 1996.
On April 12, 1996, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
("the Merger Agreement") with Champion Healthcare Corporation ("Champion"). The
Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, the merger (the "Merger") of
PC Merger Sub., Inc. a newly organized wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,
with and into Champion. Prior to the effective date of the Merger, the Company's
Common Stock will be split. At the effective date of the Merger, the holders of
Champion Common Stock will receive one right, and the holders of Champion
Preferred Stock will receive two rights, to receive one share of the Company's
Common Stock. Following the Merger, the Company's sole shareholder will own
approximately 60 percent of the Company's Common Stock and the stockholders of
Champion will own approximately 40 percent of the Company's Common Stock. The
Merger must be approved by the Stockholders of Champion. Concurrent with the
Merger Agreement, the Company will enter into a Dividend and Note Agreement
which will provide a dividend

distribution to the Company' sole shareholder, who will in turn loan to the
Company a portion of the proceeds from the dividend distribution. The Merger
will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and is expected to
close in August 1996.
On March 15, 1996 the Company closed Desert Palms Community Hospital, an
acute care hospital located in Palmdale, California.
On November 28, 1995, the Company entered into an Asset Exchange Agreement
and a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Exchange Transaction") to acquire Pioneer
Valley Hospital Hospital ("Pioneer"), a 139-bed hospital located in West Valley
City, Utah, Davis Hospital and Medical Center, 120-bed hospital located in
Laydon, Utah, and Santa Rosa Medical Center, a 129-bed hospital located in
Milton, Florida, in exchange for $38,500,000 in cash, and its Peninsula Medical
Center, a 119-bed hospital located in Ormond Beach, Florida, Elmwood Medical
Center ("Elmwood"), a 135-bed hospital located in Jefferson, Louisiana, and
Halstead Hospital ("Halstead"), a 190-bed hospital located in Halstead, Kansas.
Coincident with the Exchange Transaction, the Company will purchase the real
property of Elmwood and Halstead from a real estate investment trust ("REIT"),
exchange the Elmwood and Halstead real property for Pioneer's real property, and
sell the Pioneer real property to the REIT (the "Real Property Purchase and Sale
Transaction"). The Exchange Transaction and the Real Property Purchase and Sale
Transaction are expected to close in May 1996 and are not expected to result in
a material gain or loss.
NOTE 5. SETTLEMENT COSTS
During March 1996, the Company settled two lawsuits in connection with the
operation of its psychiatric programs. The Company recognized a charge for
settlement costs totaling $22,356,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1996, for
the payment of legal fees associated with these two lawsuits, the settlement
payments, and the write off of certain psychiatric accounts receivables. The
Company did not admit liability in either case but resolved its dispute through
the settlements in order to re-establish a business relationship and/or avoid
further legal costs in connection with the disputes.

"Hospitals") (all of which are wholly owned subsidiaries of Columbia/HCA
Healthcare Corporation) as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the related
statements of income and changes in retained earnings and cash flows for the
years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Hospitals' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the combined financial position of Davis Hospital and
Medical Center, Pioneer Valley Hospital and Santa Rosa Medical Center at
December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the combined results of their operations and

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION
Davis Hospital and Medical Center, Pioneer Valley Hospital and Santa Rosa
Medical Center (the "Hospitals") are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of
Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia"). The Hospitals provide health
care services to patients in and around their respective communities in Utah
(Davis Hospital and Medical Center and Pioneer Valley Hospital) and Florida
(Santa Rosa Medical Center). The Hospitals receive payment for patient services
from the federal government primarily under the Medicare program, state programs
under their respective Medicaid programs, health maintenance organizations,
preferred provider organizations and other private insurers and directly from
patients.
In connection with a Federal Trade Commission consent order resulting from
Columbia's merger with Health Trust, Inc. ("HTI"), Columbia agreed to sell the
Hospitals to Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation ("Paracelsus"). The Hospitals and
related entities were exchanged for three Paracelsus hospitals and related
entities as well as an additional cash payment as defined by the agreement. The
transaction closed on May 16, 1996.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
BASIS OF COMBINATION
The combined financial statements presented herein will be referred to for
the years ended December 31, but will include the financial statements of Davis
Hospital and Pioneer Valley Hospital for the years ended December 31, and Santa
Rosa Medical Center for the years ended August 31.
OPERATING REVENUES AND RECEIVABLES
Operating revenues are based on established billing rates less allowances
and discounts for patients covered by Medicare, Medicaid and various other
discount arrangements. Payments received under these programs and arrangements,
which are based on either predetermined rates or the cost of services, are
generally less than the Hospital's customary charges, and the differences are
recorded as contractual adjustments or policy discounts at the time service is
rendered. These contractual adjustments totaled $49,738,000 and $56,580,000 for
1994 and 1995, respectively.
Normal estimation differences between final settlements and amounts
recognized in previous years are reported as contractual adjustments in the
current year. The administrative procedures for cost-based programs preclude
final determination of the payments due or receivable until after the Hospitals'
cost reports are audited or otherwise reviewed by and settled with the
respective program agencies. The Hospitals' estimate for final settlements of
all years through 1995 has been reflected in the combined financial statements.

<PAGE>
DAVIS HOSPITAL AND MEDICAL CENTER
PIONEER VALLEY HOSPITAL
SANTA ROSA MEDICAL CENTER
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1995
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Patient revenues under the Medicare and Medicaid programs amounted to
approximately 43% and 40% of total patient revenues in 1994 and 1995,
respectively. The Hospitals do not believe that there are any credit risks
associated with receivables due from governmental agencies. Concentrations of
credit risk from other payors is limited by the number of patients and payors.
INTERCOMPANY LIABILITIES
Intercompany liabilities represent, in part, the net excess of funds
transferred to or paid on behalf of the Hospitals over funds transferred to the
centralized cash management account of Columbia. Generally, this balance is
increased by automatic cash transfers from the account to reimburse the
Hospitals' bank accounts for operating expenses and to pay the Hospitals' debt,
completed construction project additions, fees and services provided by Columbia
and other operating expenses, such as payroll, interest, insurance, and income
taxes. Generally, the balance is decreased through daily cash deposits by the
Hospitals to the account. Management fees represent an allocation of home office
and regional expenses of Columbia.
At December 31, 1994 and 1995, intercompany balances also include certain
long-term debt balances amounting to $33,553,000 and $29,616,000, respectively,
which were allocated to the Hospitals by Columbia. All principal and interest
payments on the debt allocated from Columbia are made by the Hospitals through
Columbia. The Hospitals were charged interest on the allocated debt at rates
ranging from 11.9% to 10% during 1994 and 1995.
INVENTORIES
Inventories consisting of drugs and other supplies are stated at cost
(first-in, first-out method) which is not in excess of market.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated
useful life of the assets. Depreciation rates for buildings and improvements are
equivalent to useful lives ranging generally from 10 to 20 years. Estimated
useful lives of equipment vary generally from 4 to 10 years.
INCOME TAXES
Columbia files consolidated federal and state income tax returns which
include the accounts of the Hospitals. The provision for income taxes is
determined utilizing maximum federal and state statutory rates applied to income
before income taxes adjusted for certain items which are not deductible. Income
tax benefits or liabilities are reflected in the intercompany liabilities. All
income tax payments are made by the Hospitals through Columbia.
GENERAL AND PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY RISKS
Columbia assumes the liability for all general and professional liability
claims incurred and maintains the related reserve; accordingly, no reserve for
liability risks is recorded on the accompanying combined balance sheets. Prior
to April 24, 1995, Columbia maintained self-insurance coverage for general and
professional liability risks of the Hospitals. Davis Hospital and Medical Center
maintained reserves for general and professional liability risk up to certain
deductible limits during 1994.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Costs attributable to the Hospitals were allocated based on actuarially
determined estimates. Effective April 24, 1995, the cost of general and
professional liability coverage were allocated by Columbia's captive insurance
company to the Hospitals based on actuarially determined estimates. The cost for
1994 and 1995 was approximately $1,046,000 and $1,137,000, respectively.
The Hospitals participate in a self-insured program for workers'
compensation and health insurance administered by Columbia. The cost, based on
the Hospitals' experience, was approximately $1,798,000 and $2,826,000 for 1994
and 1995, respectively.
LITIGATION AND OTHER MATTERS
The Hospitals are subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course
of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of such
pending legal proceedings will not have a material effect on the Hospitals'
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

6. PREPAID LEASE
Santa Rosa Medical Center is party to a prepaid lease agreement with Santa
Rosa County to lease certain real property and improvements. Effective September
1, 1994, the initial 20-year lease term, scheduled to terminate in the year
2005, was extended to the year 2025 for $2,000,000. In connection with the lease
extension, Santa Rosa Medical Center agreed to make capital improvements through
December 31, 2004, aggregating not less than $5,000,000.
Leasehold value in the accompanying combined balance sheets represents the
difference between market rent and contract rent, discounted to present value

Leasehold value is being amortized over the remaining initial lease term on a
straight-line basis.
7. AFFILIATED COMPANIES
The Hospitals incur expenses for management services provided by Columbia.
Due to the related nature of these entities, the amounts paid may not have been
the same if similar activities had been undertaken with unrelated parties.

our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting

CHAMPION HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATIONAL BACKGROUND
Champion Healthcare Corporation (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, is
engaged in the ownership and management of general acute care and specialty
hospitals and related health care facilities. At December 31, 1995, including
hospital partnerships, the Company owns and/or operates seven acute care
hospitals, two psychiatric hospitals and a skilled nursing facility. See Note 16
"Subsequent Events" for a discussion of recent acquisition activity.
Including hospital partnerships, the seven general acute care hospitals
owned and/or operated by the Company provide a range of medical and surgical
services typically available in general acute care hospitals. These services
include inpatient care such as intensive and cardiac care, diagnostic services,
radiological services and emergency services. All of the hospitals provide an
extensive range of outpatient services, including ambulatory surgery, laboratory
and radiology. The Company's two psychiatric hospitals provide child, adolescent
and adult comprehensive psychiatric and chemical dependency treatment programs,
with inpatient, day hospital, outpatient and other ambulatory care.
Effective December 31, 1995, the Company and its preferred shareholders
entered into the 1995 Recapitalization Agreement to reduce the complexity of the
Company's capital structure and eliminate the accrual of future dividends on its
outstanding preferred stock and the resulting impact on earnings per share. As a
result of the Recapitalization Agreement, common shares outstanding increased
from 4,262,386 to 11,868,230 and preferred shares outstanding decreased from
10,452,370 to 2,605,714. The transactions comprising the 1995 Recapitalization
Agreement are herein collectively referred to as the "Recapitalization." See
Note 8 "Stockholders' Equity" for a discussion of the terms of the
Recapitalization.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company,
all wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and majority-owned
partnerships. The Company uses the equity method of accounting when it has a 20%
to 50% interest in other companies and partnerships. Under the equity method,
the Company records its original investment at cost and adjusts its investment
for its undistributed share of the earnings or losses of the equity investee.
All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in
consolidation.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant
areas which require the use of management's estimates relate to the
determination of estimated third-party payor settlements, allowance for
uncollectable accounts receivable, income tax valuation allowance and reserves
for professional liability risk.
NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE
The Company's facilities have entered into agreements with third-party
payors, including US government programs and managed care health plans, under
which the Company is paid based upon established charges, cost of services
provided, predetermined rates by diagnosis, fixed per diem rates or discounts
from established charges.
Net patient service revenues are recorded at estimated amounts due from
patients and third party payors for health care services provided, including
anticipated settlements under reimbursement agreements with third party payors.
Payments for services rendered to patients covered by the
F-42
<PAGE>
CHAMPION HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Medicare and Medicaid programs are generally less than billed charges.
Provisions for contractual adjustments are made to reduce charges to these
patients to estimated receipts based upon each program's principle of
payment/reimbursement (either prospectively determined or retrospectively
determined costs). Settlements for retrospectively determined rates are
estimated in the period the related services are rendered and are adjusted in
future periods as final settlements are determined. In management's opinion,
adequate allowance has been provided for possible adjustments that might result
from final settlements under these programs. Allowance for contractual
adjustments under these programs are deducted from accounts receivable in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
OTHER REVENUE
Other revenue includes income from non-patient hospital activities such as
cafeteria sales and interest income, among others.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments,
primarily US government backed securities and certificates of deposit, purchased
with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company maintains its
cash in bank deposits which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS 115")
on January 1, 1995. All investments accounted for under SFAS No. 115 are
classified as available-for-sale, and the implementation of this statement had
no impact on net income.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from the Medicare and
Medicaid programs, other government programs, managed care health plans,
commercial insurance companies and individual patients. Current earnings are
charged with an allowance for doubtful accounts based on experience and other
circumstances that may affect the ability of patients to meet their obligations.
Accounts deemed uncollectable are charged against that allowance.
SUPPLIES INVENTORY
Inventory consists primarily of pharmaceuticals and supplies and is stated
at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for new facilities
and equipment and those that substantially increase the useful life of existing
property and equipment are capitalized. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are
charged to expense when incurred. Upon disposition, the assets and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the resulting gain
or loss is included in the statement of operations.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method at rates calculated
to amortize the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3
to 40 years.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill represents costs in excess of net assets acquired and is amortized
on a straight line basis over a period of 20 years. Intangible assets consist of
deferred financing costs, non-compete agreements and various other intangible
assets. Deferred financing costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
term of the applicable debt. Costs related to non-compete agreements and other
intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over two to five years.
Amortization expense for 1993, 1994 and 1995 was approximately $1,209,000,
$1,000,000, and $2,724,000, of which approximately $139,000, $395,000, and
$845,000 relate to deferred financing costs.
CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
Through December 31, 1995, the Company reflected accumulated unpaid and
undeclared dividends on its cumulative redeemable preferred stock as an increase
in the related issue with corresponding charges to additional paid-in capital,
to the extent available, and accumulated deficit. Pursuant to the
Recapitalization, all accrued preferred dividends at December 31, 1995
(approximately $12,614,000) were paid by the issuance of common stock at an
agreed price of $7.00 per share. Additionally, the holders of Series C and D
preferred stock have waived all dividends accruing after December 31, 1995. See
Note 8 "Stockholders' Equity" for a discussion of the terms of the
Recapitalization.
INCOME TAXES
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
this method, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequence
on future years of temporary differences between the tax basis of the assets and
liabilities and their financial amounts at year-end.
LOSS PER SHARE
Loss per common and common equivalent share amounts are calculated by
dividing loss applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during each period, as restated for the two-for-one
stock split on July 7, 1993, and assuming the exercise, when dilutive, of all
stock options and warrants having an exercise price less than the average stock
market price of the common stock using the treasury stock method. Common stock
equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities have not been considered
because their effect was antidilutive in all years. Weighted average shares
outstanding used to determine earnings per common and common equivalent share
were 1,122,000, 1,457,000, and 4,255,000 in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year financial statements
to conform to the 1995 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on
the results of operations previously reported.
RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS 121"), "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of."
SFAS 121, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995,
requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and
used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this statement
will have a material effect on its financial statements.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1995. SFAS 123 establishes new financial accounting and reporting
standards for stock-based compensation plans. Entities will be allowed to
measure compensation expense for stock-based compensation under SFAS 123 or APB
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Entities electing to
account for such compensation under APB Opinion No. 25 will be required to make
pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if SFAS 123 had
been applied. The Company is presently evaluating which alternative it will
adopt under SFAS 123 and has not yet quantified the potential impact on the
Company of adopting this new standard.
NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER INVESTMENTS
PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS HOSPITAL
The Company acquired Physicians and Surgeons Hospital in Midland, Texas on
May 1, 1993 for approximately $5,800,000 in cash and the assumption of
$1,200,000 in debt. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction
with operations reflected in the consolidated financial statements beginning May
1, 1993. The Company replaced P&S in the fourth quarter of 1995 with the newly
constructed 101 bed Westwood Medical Center. Total construction cost for the new
facility was approximately $39,017,000.
PSYCHIATRIC HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
On October 21, 1994, the Company acquired Psychiatric Healthcare Corporation
("PHC"), a privately held corporation headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, by
the merger of PHC with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. PHC
owned and operated two free-standing psychiatric hospitals with a combined total
of 219 beds located in Springfield, Missouri and Alexandria, Louisiana, and
owned a third free-standing psychiatric hospital located in Sherman, Texas, that
was closed and held for sale at the date of acquisition. The net purchase price,
including contingent consideration of $2,000,000 paid in 1995 and the assumption
of long term debt, was approximately $24,600,000. The Company paid no cash to
PHC shareholders. Total consideration paid by the Company consisted of the
assumption of approximately $14,880,000 in long-term debt and the issuance of
the following securities to PHC shareholders: (i) 264,306 shares of Series D
preferred stock, (ii) $7,123,000 of 11% Senior Subordinated Notes with 213,690
detachable warrants to acquire common stock and (iii) options, which were
subsequently exercised, to acquire an additional 7,561 shares of Series D
Preferred Stock and $202,000 principal amount of 11% Senior Subordinated Notes
with 6,060 detachable warrants. The payment of contingent consideration had been
subject to the Company's receipt of up to $2,000,000 from a combination of the
sale of the Sherman, Texas facility, a recovery from a lawsuit and certain
specified Medicaid payments. All conditions for the payment of contingent
consideration were substantially met in 1995, including the sale of Sherman
Hospital for approximately $1,300,000 in March 1995. The acquisition was
accounted for as a purchase transaction with operations reflected in the
consolidated financial statements effective October 1, 1994. The Company has
completed its analysis of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and has
allocated approximately $8,800,000 in excess purchase price to goodwill, which
is currently being amortized over a 20 year period.
AMERIHEALTH, INC.
On December 6, 1994, the Company merged with AmeriHealth, Inc. ("AHH"), a
Delaware corporation, with AHH being the surviving corporation resulting from
the merger (the "Combined Company"). The merger was accounted for as a
recapitalization of the Company with the Company as
F-45

NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)
the acquiror (a reverse acquisition). Concurrent with the merger, the name of
the Combined Company was changed to Champion Healthcare Corporation, and the
Combined Company adopted the Company's certificate of incorporation provisions.
Pursuant to the merger, the Combined Company: (a) paid a cash distribution
of $0.085 cents per share to all common stockholders of AHH, (b) issued one
share of its Combined Company common stock for each 5.70358 shares of the
approximately 17.2 million outstanding shares of AHH's Common Stock, (c) issued
one share of Combined Company common stock for each of the approximately 1.2
million then outstanding shares of the Company common stock, and (d) issued one
share of newly authorized Combined Company preferred stock for each of the then
outstanding shares of the Company's preferred stock. The terms of the new voting
shares of Combined Company preferred stock are identical to those of the
Company's preferred stock outstanding prior to the merger. In addition, holders
of the outstanding shares of AHH's $2.125 Increasing Rate Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock were canceled in exchange for cash equal to the redemption price
of such shares plus all unpaid dividends which totaled approximately $47,000.
The net purchase price, including the assumption of approximately $17,700,000 in
debt, was approximately $38,876,000. The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase transaction with operations reflected in the consolidated financial
statements effective December 1, 1994. The Company has completed its analysis of
the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and has allocated approximately
$8,946,000 in excess purchase price to goodwill, which is currently being
amortized over a 20 year period.
PARTNERSHIP WITH DAKOTA HOSPITAL
On December 21, 1994, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company that owned
Heartland Medical Center, a 142 bed general acute care facility in Fargo, North
Dakota, entered into a partnership with Dakota Hospital ("Dakota"), a
not-for-profit corporation that owned a 199 bed general acute care hospital also
in Fargo, North Dakota. The partnership is operated as Dakota Heartland Health
System ("DHHS"). Also on December 21, 1994, the Company entered into an
operating agreement with the partnership and Dakota to manage the combined
operations of the two hospitals. Under the terms of the partnership agreement,
the Company is obligated to advance funds to DHHS to cover any and all operating
deficits of DHHS. DHHS began operations on December 31, 1994.
The Company and Dakota contributed their respective hospitals debt and lien
free (except for capitalized lease obligations), including certain working
capital components, and the Company contributed an additional $20,000,000 in
cash, each in exchange for 50% ownership in the partnership. A $20,000,000
special distribution was made to Dakota after capitalization of the partnership
in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement. The Company will
receive 55% of the net income and distributable cash flow ("DCF") of the
partnership until such time as it has recovered on a cumulative basis an
additional $10,000,000 of DCF in the form of an "excess" distribution. As of
December 31, 1995, the Company has received $825,000 in cash distributions from
DHHS.
The partnership is administered by a Governing Board comprised of six
members appointed by Dakota, three members appointed by the Company and three
members appointed by mutual consent of the Dakota members and the Company
members. Certain Governing Board actions require the majority approval of each
of the Company and Dakota members. Because the partners through the partnership
agreement have delegated substantially all management of the partnership to the
Company through the operating agreement, the authority of the Governing Board is
limited.
Beginning July 1996, Dakota has the right to require the Company to purchase
its partnership interest free of debt or liens for a cash purchase price equal
to 5.5 times Dakota's pro rata share of earnings before depreciation, interest,
income taxes and amortization, as defined in the partnership agreement, less
Dakota's pro-rata share of the partnership's long-term debt. DHHS had earnings

NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)
before depreciation, interest, income taxes and amortization of approximately
$19,000,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995. Beginning January 1998, the
purchase price for Dakota's partnership interest shall not be less than
$50,000,000. After receipt of written notice of Dakota's intent to sell its
partnership interest, the Company would have 12 months to complete the purchase.
Should the Company not complete the purchase during this period, Dakota has the
right to, among others, (i) terminate the operating agreement and engage an
outside party to manage the hospital, (ii) replace the Company's designees to
the Governing Board and (iii) enter into a fair market value transaction to sell
substantially all of the partnership's assets.
The Company accounts for its investment in DHHS under the equity method. The
following table summarizes certain financial information of DHHS as of December
31, 1994 and 1995, and for the year ended December 31, 1995 (dollars in
thousands). DHHS began operations on December 31, 1994.

SALT LAKE REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER
On April 13, 1995, the Company acquired Salt Lake Regional Medical Center
("SLRMC") from Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia"). SLRMC is
comprised of a 200 bed tertiary care hospital and five clinics and is located in
Salt Lake City, Utah. Total acquisition cost for SLRMC was approximately
$61,042,000, which consisted of approximately $56,816,000 in cash and additional
consideration due to Columbia of approximately $1,767,000, as well as the
assumption of approximately $2,459,000 in capital lease obligations. Cash
consideration included approximately $11,783,000 for certain working capital
components, resulting in a net purchase price of approximately $49,259,000. The
Company funded the asset purchase from available cash and approximately
$30,000,000 in borrowings under its then outstanding credit facility. The
acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction with operations
reflected in the consolidated financial statements beginning April 14, 1995.
JORDAN VALLEY HOSPITAL
On March 1, 1996, the Company acquired Jordan Valley Hospital ("Jordan")
from Columbia. Jordan is a 50 bed acute care hospital located in West Jordan,
Utah, a suburb of Salt Lake City. The Company acquired Jordan in exchange for
Autauga Medical Center, an 85 bed acute care hospital, and Autauga Health Care
Center, a 72 bed skilled nursing facility, both in Prattville, Alabama, plus
preliminary cash consideration paid to the seller of approximately $10,750,000,
which included approximately $3,750,000 for certain net working capital
components, subject to adjustment, and reimbursement of certain capital
expenditures made previously by the seller. The transaction did not result in a
gain or loss. The Alabama facilities were acquired as part of the Company's
acquisition of AmeriHealth, Inc. on December 6, 1994.

NOTE 4. ASSET WRITE-DOWN
In December 1993, the Company ceased providing medical services at Gulf
Coast Hospital ("GCH"), one of two Company-owned hospitals located in Baytown,
Texas, which it had acquired from HCA Health Services of Texas, Inc. on
September 1, 1992. The Company intended to use GCH for limited administrative
purposes only until it could arrange a sale. As a result, the Company wrote down
the GCH assets by $15,456,000, which reflected the estimated fair value of the
facility under limited use less ongoing operating costs and various rental
concessions previously granted the tenants. The book value of GCH prior to the
write-down was $16,681,000. The remaining net historical cost of $1,225,000
represented the equipment moved to the other Baytown campus. In June 1994, the
Company sold the former HCA facility to a physician group for nominal
consideration. The Company believes that assets associated with its other campus
in Baytown have not been impaired as the result of this change in operations.

</TABLE>
On June 12, 1995, the Company issued $35,000,000 face amount (less a
discount of approximately $668,000) of Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes")
maturing on December 31, 2003. The Notes bear interest at an annual effective
rate of 11.35% (11% stated rate). Interest is payable quarterly, and the stated
rate increases from 11% to 11.5% on March 31, 1996. The Notes include detachable
warrants for the purchase of 525,000 shares of common stock. The Notes are
subject to redemption on or after December 31, 1995, at the Company's option, at
prices declining from 112.5% of principal amount at December 31, 1995, to par at
December 31, 2002. Additionally, there is a requirement to repurchase all
outstanding Notes in the event of a change in control of the Company, at the
holder's option, based on a declining redemption premium ranging from 112.5% to
103% of principal. Proceeds from the issuance of Notes were used to paydown
approximately $31,500,000 principal amount outstanding under the Revolving Loan
with the remainder retained for general corporate purposes. The Notes are
uncollateralized obligations and are subordinated in right of payment to certain
senior indebtedness of the Company. Approximately $668,000 of the proceeds from
the issuance of the Notes were allocated to the warrants.
On May 31, 1995, the Company refinanced and paid a $50,000,000 term and
revolving credit facility ("old credit facility") obtained in November 1993 with
a $100,000,000 revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Loan") with Banque
Paribas, as agent, AmSouth Bank of Alabama, Bank One of Texas, N.A., CoreStates
Bank, N.A., and NationsBank of Texas, N.A. Amounts available under the Revolving
Loan are subject to certain limitations, and the total amount available under
the Revolving Loan declines to $80,000,000 on the third anniversary date. The
Revolving Loan also provides for short term letters of credit of up to
$5,000,000. The Revolving Loan matures no later than March 31, 1999, and bears
interest at a lender defined incremental rate plus, at the Company's option, the
LIBOR or Prime rate. The incremental rate to be applied is based upon the
Company meeting certain operational performance targets, as defined, and ranges
from 2.5% to 3.0% with respect to the LIBOR rate option and from 1.0% to 1.5%
with respect to the Prime rate option. The interest rates on the Revolving Loan
and old credit facility were 8.85% and 9.12%, respectively, at December 31, 1995
and 1994. The Company currently has approximately $649,000 outstanding under
letters of credit. Proceeds from the refinancing were used to pay approximately
$48,000,000 principal amount outstanding under the Company's old credit facility
and approximately $9,533,000 principal amount of debt held by Wilmington Savings
Fund Society ("WSFS"). The interest rate on the WSFS Loan was 11.5% and 10.5% at
May 31, 1995 (the date of payment) and December 31, 1994, respectively. With the
exception of certain assets collateralizing debt assumed in the Company's 1994
acquisition of PHC, the Revolving Loan is collateralized by substantially all of
the Company's assets. The terms of the Revolving Loan eliminated the requirement
under the Company's previous bank credit facility to maintain a
F-49

NOTE 6. LONG-TERM DEBT (CONTINUED)
cash collateral account with the lender in the amount of $5,000,000. The
Company's future acquisitions and divestitures may require, in certain
circumstances, consent by lenders under this agreement.
In connection with the Company's refinancing and payment of its old credit
facility, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing costs of
$1,118,000, which had no tax effect. This amount has been recorded as an
extraordinary loss in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The
Company also prepaid the WSFS Loan with no material financial impact.
On December 30, 1994, pursuant to commitments obtained from the original
purchasers of the 11% Senior Subordinated Notes issued on December 31, 1993, the
Company issued an additional $19,133,000 of Notes with detachable warrants for
the purchase of 573,990 shares of common stock. No value was allocated to the
warrants at the time of issuance because the interest rate on the Notes was
considered a market rate and the exercise price was greater than the estimated
fair value of the common stock. The Notes bear interest at an effective annual
rate of 11%. All other terms of the Notes are substantially the same as those
discussed above.
In connection with the Company's acquisition of PHC, the Company issued
approximately $7,123,000 principal amount of Notes, and assumed approximately
$12,970,000 of mortgage financing on the PHC facilities, $257,000 in capitalized
leases, $159,000 in notes payable and a working capital credit facility with a
balance of approximately $1,494,000, which was repaid from available cash of the
Company and PHC. The Notes bear interest at an effective annual rate of 11%. All
other terms of the Notes are substantially the same as those discussed above.
The mortgage notes are payable to Health Care REIT, Inc. and bear interest
at an annual rate that increases yearly from 13.44% at December 31, 1995, to
15.4% at November 1, 2001. Thereafter, the mortgage bears interest at an annual
rate equal to the seven year US Treasuries rate plus 500 basis points.
Approximately $10,125,000 principal balance of the mortgage matures on December
1, 2008, with principal payments on that portion commencing in December 1995,
based on 25 year amortization. The remaining balance of the mortgage requires
quarterly principal payments of $200,000 through 1997. The Company sold the
Sherman, Texas facility for approximately $1,300,000 on March 22, 1995. In
connection with the sale, the Company made a required principal payment of
$850,000 on the mortgage collateralized by this facility and obtained a release
of collateral from the lender. The remaining principal balance is now
collateralized by the Company's hospital in Alexandria, Louisiana.
Other notes payable bear interest at rates ranging from 5.1% to 11.8% and
are generally collateralized by the underlying assets to which they relate.
On November 5, 1993, the Company refinanced its subsidiary term and
revolving credit loans obtained in August 1991, with a $50,000,000 credit
facility comprised of a $20,000,000 term loan and a $30,000,000 revolving credit
facility (collectively, the "old credit facility," as referred to above). In
connection with the refinancing, a prepayment premium and unamortized deferred
financing costs of $1,230,000, net of an income tax benefit of $634,000, were
written off and recorded as an extraordinary loss.
The Company capitalized approximately $1,462,000 and $294,000 in interest
costs associated with the construction of a hospital and other medical related
facilities at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The Company had no
capitalized interest for the year ended December 31, 1993.
The Revolving Loan, Notes and Mortgages referenced above contain restrictive
covenants which include, among others, restrictions on additional indebtedness,
the payment of dividends and other

NOTE 8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
RECAPITALIZATION
Effective December 31, 1995, the Company, pursuant to the 1995
Recapitalization Agreement, entered into several transactions to reduce the
complexity of the Company's capital structure and eliminate the accrual of
future dividends on its outstanding preferred stock and the resulting impact on
earnings per share. As a part of these transactions (i) all outstanding shares
of Series A, A-1, and BB preferred stock, pursuant to their terms, converted
into 4,797,161 shares of common stock, (ii) all accrued dividends at December
31, 1995, totaling approximately $12,614,000 on all classes of the Company's
outstanding preferred stock were paid by issuing 1,801,900 shares of common
stock at an agreed upon price of $7.00 per share, and (iii) the holders of
Series C and D preferred stock agreed to waive the future accrual of
preferential dividends. As a further part of these transactions, the Company
issued an additional 1,006,783 shares of common stock to all holders of its then
outstanding preferred stock as consideration for actions taken and agreed to
reduce the exercise prices of one series of warrants totaling 680,104 from $5.90
to $5.25 per share and two series of warrants totaling 2,447,670 from $9.00 to
$7.00 per share until May 13, 1996, after which the exercise prices revert to
their prior amounts. Warrant holders have the right to tender subordinated debt
in lieu of cash, where applicable. Shareholders approved the Recapitalization
and an Amended Certificate of Incorporation at a special shareholders meeting
held on February 12, 1996. As a result of the Recapitalization, common shares
outstanding at December 31, 1995, increased from 4,262,386 to 11,868,230, and
preferred shares outstanding decreased from 10,452,370 to 2,605,714. Other than
for fractional shares, no cash consideration was paid under the terms of the
Recapitalization. On a pro forma basis, assuming the Recapitalization had
occurred on January 1, 1995, primary and fully diluted earnings per share would
have been $0.27 and $0.19, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Under the terms of the Company's amended Certificate of Incorporation, the
Company is authorized to issue 25,000,000 shares of common stock, and 2,700,000
shares of preferred stock, divided into two series as follow: (i) 500,000 shares
of Series C, and (ii) 2,200,000 shares of Series D.
COMMON STOCK
In connection with the Company's merger with AmeriHealth, Inc. ("AHH") on
December 6, 1994, the Company issued 1 share of $0.01 par value common stock in
exchange for each share of Company common stock outstanding prior to the
consummation of the merger. The stockholders' equity accounts were retroactively
restated to reflect the issuance of $0.01 par value common stock (See Note 3.
"Acquisitions and Other Investments"). Additionally, the Company paid a cash
distribution of $0.085 per share to all AHH common stockholders.
Currently, payment of any cash dividends or other distributions or
repurchases of any capital stock of the Company are prohibited.
STOCK OPTION PLANS
The Company has six nonstatutory stock option plans in which certain
officers and/or directors are eligible to participate: Employee Stock Option
Plan, dated December 31, 1991 ("Plan No. 1"), Employee Stock Option Plan No. 2,

At the Company's annual stockholders meeting on May 25, 1995, the
stockholders approved the adoption of the Selected Executive Stock Option Plan
No. 5, which authorized 144,500 shares of common stock for issuance under the

With the exception of Plan 1, options granted under the Plans can not be
less than 80% of the fair market value of common stock on the date of the grant.
Under Plan 1, the per share price can not be less than 100% of the fair market

expire in years 1999 through 2008. AmeriHealth, Inc. also has General Business
Credit and AMT Credit carryforwards of approximately $68,000 and $100,000,

(1) Fully diluted earnings per share for the period has not been presented due
to the antidilutive effect of such calculation.
(2) The net loss for the second quarter of 1995 included an extraordinary loss
of approximately $1,118,000 from the early extinguishment of debt.
Additionally, results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1995,
and the nine months ended September 30, 1995, have been restated from
amounts previously reported in Form 10Q and 10Q/A to eliminate the tax
benefit associated with the extraordinary loss due to a revision in the
Company's estimate of the impact of net operating loss carryforwards.
(3) Earnings per share is computed independently for each quarter presented;
therefore, the sum of the per share amounts does not equal the annual per
share amount due to quarterly fluctuations in weighted average common and
common equivalent shares outstanding.

CHAMPION HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 15. CREDIT RISK AND FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
CREDIT RISK
The Company's revenues consist primarily of amounts due from the Medicare
and Medicaid programs in addition to amounts due from insurance carriers and
individuals. The Company determines the adequacy of a patient's third-party
payor coverage upon admission. However, it generally does not require any
collateral prior to performing services. The Company maintains reserves for
contractual allowances and potential credit losses based on past experience and
management's current expectations. Medicare and Medicaid gross revenue accounted
for approximately 39% and 12% in 1993, 39% and 18% in 1994, and 42% and 19% in
1995, respectively, of the Company's total gross revenue.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value
due to the short term maturities of these instruments. The carrying amounts of
the Company's fixed rate long-term borrowings at December 31, 1994 and 1995,
approximate their fair value.
The carrying value of the Company's revolving credit agreement approximates
fair value because the interest rate on such agreement is variable and based on
current market rates.
NOTE 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 31, 1996, the Company entered into a letter of intent to sell the
149 bed Lakeland Regional Hospital in Springfield, MO, to Columbia in exchange
for the 100 bed Poplar Springs Hospital in Petersburg, VA. Both facilities are
psychiatric hospitals. The Company anticipates receiving additional cash
consideration as a result of the sale, net of certain working capital components
and the respective facilities' long term debt. This transaction is subject to
numerous contingencies, including adequate due diligence and various regulatory
approvals; accordingly, the Company is presently unable to conclude whether
consummation of this transaction is more likely than not to occur.

DAKOTA HEARTLAND HEALTH SYSTEM
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
On December 21, 1994, Dakota Heartland Health System, a general partnership
(the Partnership), was formed by a wholly owned subsidiary of Champion
Healthcare Corporation (Champion) that owned Heartland Medical Center, a 140-bed
general acute care facility in Fargo, North Dakota, and Dakota Hospital
(Dakota), a not-for-profit corporation that owned Dakota Hospital, a 199-bed
general acute care hospital also in Fargo, North Dakota. Champion and Dakota
contributed certain assets and liabilities, excluding long-term debt except
capital leases, of their respective hospitals, and Champion contributed an
additional $20,000,000 in cash, each in exchange for 50% ownership in the
Partnership. The Partnership then made a $20,000,000 cash distribution to
Dakota. Also on December 21, 1994, Champion entered into an operating agreement
with the Partnership to manage the combined operations of the two hospitals.
Champion will receive 55% of the net income and distributable cash flow (DCF) of
the Partnership until such time as it has recovered, on a cumulative basis, an
additional $10,000,000 of DCF in the form of an "excess" distribution (see also
Note 4).
USE OF ESTIMATES:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of net income during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant areas
which require the use of management's estimates relate to the determination of
the estimated third-party payor settlements, the allowance for uncollectible
accounts receivable and obsolete inventory.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
PATIENT RECEIVABLES:
Payments for services rendered to patients covered by third-party payor
programs are generally less than billed charges. Provisions for contractual
adjustments are made to reduce the charges to these patients to estimated
receipts based upon the third-party payor's principles of payment/ reimbursement
(either prospectively determined or retrospectively determined costs).
SUPPLIES INVENTORY:
Supplies inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost
determined substantially on the first-in, first-out basis.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:
Property and equipment acquisitions are recorded at cost at the date of
receipt. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the respective assets, ranging from 4 to 25 years.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred while renewals and
betterments are capitalized. The costs and related accumulated depreciation on
asset disposals are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included
in income.
INCOME TAXES:
The Partnership's income is attributed to its partners for income tax
purposes. Accordingly, it has not accrued any liability for income taxes.
Entities owned by the Partnership have paid income taxes during 1995 totaling
$447,207.

1. ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)
RECLASSIFICATIONS:
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1994 financial statements to
conform to the 1995 presentation.
2. NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE:
The Company's facilities have entered into agreements with third-party
payors, including U.S. government programs and managed care health plans, under
which the Company is paid based upon established charges, cost of services
provided, predetermined rates by diagnosis, fixed per diem rates or discounts or
discounts from established charges.
Net patient service revenues are recorded at estimated amounts due from
patients and third-party payors for health care services provided, including
anticipated settlements under reimbursement agreements with third-party payors.
Payments for services rendered to patients covered by the Medicare and Medicaid
programs are generally less than billed charges. Provisions for contractual
adjustments are made to reduce charges to these patients to estimated receipts
based upon each program's principle of payment/reimbursement (either
prospectively determined or retrospectively determined costs). Final settlements
under these programs are subject to administrative review and audit. The Company
records adjustments, if any, resulting from such review or audits during the
period in which these adjustments become known. Allowance for contractual
adjustments under these programs are netted in accounts receivable in the
accompanying Balance Sheet. It is management's opinion that adequate allowance
has been provided for possible adjustments that might result from final
settlements under these programs.

During 1995, the Partnership sold its 50% interest in Orthopro, Inc.
The Partnership has a 50% interest in Dakota Outpatient Center (DOC), a
general partnership which owns and operates a medical and office building. As a
general partner, the Partnership is contingently liable on the outstanding debt
of DOC. As of December 31, 1995, the balance of the note was $2,416,564.
DOC also leases its real property to Dakota Hospital, Dakota Day Surgery
(DDS) and Dakota Clinic, Ltd. (an unrelated corporation), under noncancelable
10-year net operating leases. Future minimum annual lease payments to be paid by
the Hospital and DDS are $1,414,500 through 1998.
The Partnership also has a 50% interest in DDS, a general partnership which
provides outpatient surgical services. As a general partner, the Partnership is
contingently liable to cover any operating losses of DDS. DDS had operating
income in 1995.
5. CREDIT RISK
The Partnership's revenues consist primarily of amounts due from the
Medicare and Medicaid programs in addition to amounts due from insurance
carriers and individuals. The Partnership determines the adequacy of a patient's
third-party payor coverage upon admission. However, it generally does not
require any collateral prior to performing services. The Partnership maintains
reserves for contractual allowances and potential credit losses based on past
experience and management's current expectations. Medicare and Medicaid gross
revenue accounted for approximately 46% and 9% of the Partnership's total gross
revenue.

JORDAN VALLEY HOSPITAL
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
ORGANIZATION
Jordan Valley Hospital (the "Hospital") is a 50 bed tertiary care hospital
located in West Jordan, Utah. The Hospital was formerly a tax-exempt hospital,
Holy Cross Jordan Valley Hospital, which was owned by Holy Cross Health Systems
Corporation ("HCHSC"). The Hospital was acquired by HealthTrust, Inc. -- The
Hospital Company ("HTI") in August 1994. In October 1994, HTI and Columbia/ HCA
entered into an agreement and a Plan of Merger. The merger was approved by both
parties and effective in April 1995. In an agreement between the Federal Trade
Commission and Columbia/HCA, the Hospital is currently in the process of being
sold (see note 7). These financial statements are based on HCHSC historical cost
because the Columbia/HCA and HTI ownership of the hospital were temporary.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments,
primarily U.S. government backed securities and certificates of deposit,
purchased with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company
maintains its cash in bank deposits which, at times, may exceed federally
insured limits.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND NET PATIENT REVENUE
The Hospital has entered into agreements with third-party payors, including
U.S. government programs and managed care health plans, under which the Hospital
is paid based upon established charges, cost of providing services,
predetermined rates by diagnosis, fixed per diem rates or discounts from
established charges.
Net patient service revenues are recorded at estimated amounts due from
patients and third party payors for health care services provided, including
anticipated settlements under reimbursement agreements with third party payors.
Payments for services rendered to patients covered by the Medicare and Medicaid
programs are generally less than billed charges. Provisions for contractual
adjustments are made to reduce the charges to these patients to estimated
receipts based upon the programs' principles of payment/reimbursement (either
prospectively determined or retrospectively determined costs). Final settlements
under these programs are subject to administrative review and audit, and
provision is currently made for adjustments which may result during the period
in which such adjustments become known. Allowance for contractual adjustments
under these programs is netted in accounts receivable in the accompanying

provided for possible adjustments that might result from such final settlements.
Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due from the Medicare and
Medicaid programs, other government programs, managed care health plans,
commercial insurance companies and individual patients.
Current earnings are charged with an allowance for doubtful accounts based
on experience and other circumstances that may affect the ability of payors to

To the Board of Directors
Salt Lake Regional Medical Center
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Salt Lake
Regional Medical Center (formerly known as Holy Cross Hospital of Salt Lake
City), and subsidiaries (the "Hospital"), as of May 31, 1994 and April 13, 1995,
and the related consolidated statements of income, equity, and cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended May 31, 1994 and for the period from
June 1, 1994 through April 13, 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Hospital's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Salt Lake
Regional Medical Center and subsidiaries as of May 31, 1994 and April 13, 1995,
and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each
of the two years in the period ended May 31, 1994 and for the period from June
1, 1994 through April 13, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting

SALT LAKE REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
ORGANIZATION
On April 13, 1995, CHC-Salt Lake City, Inc. (the "Company") completed its
acquisition of Salt Lake Regional Medical Center (the "Hospital") from
Healthtrust, Inc. -- The Hospital Company ("HTI"). The Hospital is comprised of
a 200 bed tertiary care hospital and five clinics and is located in Salt Lake
City, Utah. The Hospital was formerly a tax-exempt hospital, Holy Cross Hospital
of Salt Lake, which was owned by Holy Cross Health Systems Corporation
("HCHSC"). The Hospital was acquired by HTI on August 15, 1994 and was sold
pursuant to a consent decree and settlement agreement between HTI and the
Federal Trade Commission. Consummation of the sale had been subject to approval
by the Federal Trade Commission, which was received on April 7, 1995. These
financial statements are based on HCHSC historical cost because HTI ownership of
the hospital was temporary.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Hospital
and its controlled ventures. All material intercompany transactions and account
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
Highly liquid investments, primarily U.S. government backed securities and
certificates of deposits with a maturity of three months or less when purchased,
excluding amounts for which use is limited by board or donor designation or by
trust agreements, have been defined as cash equivalents. The carrying amounts
reported in the balance sheets for cash equivalents approximate fair value.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND NET PATIENT REVENUE
The Hospital has entered into agreements with third-party payors, including
U.S. government programs and managed care health plans, under which the Hospital
is paid based upon established charges, cost of providing services,
predetermined rates by diagnosis, fixed per diem rates or discounts from
established charges.
Net patient service revenues are recorded at estimated amounts due from
patients and third party payors for health care services provided, including
anticipated settlements under reimbursement agreements with third party payors.
Payments for services rendered to patients covered by the Medicare and Medicaid
programs are generally less than billed charges. Provisions for contractual
adjustments are made to reduce the charges to these patients to estimated
receipts based upon the programs' principles of payment/reimbursement (either
prospectively determined or retrospectively determined costs). Final settlements
under these programs are subject to administrative review and audit, and
provision is currently made for adjustments which may result during the period
in which such adjustments become known. Allowance for contractual adjustments
under these programs is netted in accounts receivable in the accompanying
balance sheet. Management is of the opinion that adequate allowance has been
provided for possible adjustments that might result from such final settlements.
Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due from the Medicare and
Medicaid programs, other government programs, managed care health plans,
commercial insurance companies and individual patients.
Current earnings are charged with an allowance for doubtful accounts based
on experience and other circumstances that may affect the ability of payors to
meet their obligations. Accounts deemed uncollectible are charged against that
allowance. For the years ended May 31, 1993 and 1994 and for
F-82

SALT LAKE REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)
the period ended April 13, 1995, respectively, approximately 39%, 40% and 38% of
total patient care revenue resulted from the Medicare program, and approximately
10%, 9% and 8%, respectively, resulted from Medicaid program.
INVESTMENTS
Investments acquired by purchase are stated at cost, adjusted for
impairments in value that are deemed to be other than temporary. Market values
for investments are based on quoted market prices. Investments limited as to
use, that are required for obligations classified as current liabilities and
Board designated investments and are immediately available to the Hospital for
their stated purpose, are reported in current assets.
Board designated investments limited as to use represent certain funds from
operations and other sources designated by the Board of Directors to be used to
fund future capital asset replacements, for the retirement of certain long-term
debt or for other purposes.
Certain donations, grants and bequests are restricted by donors and are
recorded at fair market value at the date of receipt. Income from and
expenditures of restricted donations are recorded as revenue and expenses in the
period used, or as general equity transfers if use is restricted for property or
equipment purchases. Bequests receivable are recorded at a nominal amount until
the Hospital receives the bequest.
SUPPLIES INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at cost, determined principally by the last-in,
first-out (LIFO) method, and are not in excess of market value.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded on the basis of cost, if purchased, or
fair market value at the date of donation. Depreciation of property and
equipment is recognized using the straight-line method over the expected useful
lives of the assets ranging from 5 and 30 years. Amortization of capital leases
is included with depreciation expense.
UNAMORTIZED DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS
Debt issuance costs are amortized using the bonds outstanding method over
the repayment term of the related debt. Amortization is included in depreciation
and amortization expense.
CHARITY CARE
Consistent with its mission prior to the acquisition by HTI, the Hospital
provides medical care to all patients regardless of their ability to pay. In
accordance with the Hospital's policies related to the provision of charity
care, patients who were unable to pay for services were identified based on
patient financial information and other subsequent analysis. The Hospital did
not pursue collection from these patients and such amounts were excluded from
net patient revenue. Charity care charges foregone were approximately $1,014,000
in 1993, $1,440,000 in 1994, and $1,228,000 in 1995.
INCOME TAXES
The Hospital utilizes Statement of Financial Standards No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes." Under this method, deferred taxes are determined based on
differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities and are measured using the enacted marginal tax rates currently in
effect when the differences reverse. As described in Note 1, the Hospital had
been a tax-exempt entity prior to the acquisition by HTI. Earning for the period
from August 16, 1994 to April 13,

obligations were estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on current
incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The
fair value of the fixed rate, long-term debt and capital lease obligations at
April 13, 1995, approximated their carrying amount.
Generally, mandatory deposits were required to be made to sinking and other
funds held by trustees for payment of principal and interest.
Prior to the acquisition by HTI, the Hospital extinguished the Series 1986
Industrial Revenue Bonds of approximately $9,480,000. The Hospital recognized an
extraordinary loss of approximately $846,000, for which no tax benefit was
recognized because HCHSC was tax-exempt. Additionally, the 1990 Series Flexible
Rate Revenue Bonds were distributed to the HCHSC concurrent with the HTI
acquisition.
OBLIGATED GROUP AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS
Under the Master Trust Indenture, HCHSC and certain of its subsidiaries,
which included the Hospital (the "Obligated Group") could issue obligations to
finance certain activities. Those members of the Obligated Group that elected to
obtain financing under the Master Trust Indenture were guarantors for the
repayment of obligations issued by other members of the Obligated Group up to
certain limits, although each issuer was considered the principal obligor.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT: (CONTINUED)
The Series 1990 Utah Pooled Financing Bonds and the Series 1986 Salt Lake
City Industrial Revenue Bonds were collateralized by a Master Trust Indenture
that was collateralized by all accounts, contract rights and receipts of the
Hospital. The obligations referenced above contained restrictive covenants that
included, among others, restrictions on additional indebtedness, the payment of
dividends and other distributions, the repurchase of common stock and related
securities under certain circumstances, and the requirement to maintain certain
financial ratios. The Hospital was in compliance with all loan covenants at May
31, 1994. The obligations referenced above were not acquired by HTI in the sale
of the Hospital by HCHSC.
The Master Trust Indenture requires establishment of certain funds, not
available for general purposes, which were held with and controlled by a trustee
for payment of certain construction costs, bond issuance costs, principal and
interest and maintenance of cash reserves. Details of funds held by the trustee
at May 31, 1994 were:

administrator of the Holy Cross Employees Benefit Trust (the "Benefit Trust").
The Benefit Trust provided health, life and long-term disability benefits to
employees of the Hospital. Premiums for these benefits were approximately

SALT LAKE REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS: (CONTINUED)
Insurance Company ("Havican"), a subsidiary of Shared Services, is the captive
insurance company from which the Hospital obtained its primary professional
liability insurance. Premiums paid to Havican were approximately $994,000,
$1,346,000 and $240,000 for 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. Premiums paid to
HTI for professional liability insurance during 1995 were approximately
$177,000. In addition, the Hospital has limited its liability through the
purchase of umbrella coverage from third-party insurers.
Through August 15, 1994, the Hospital provided pension benefits for
substantially all of its full-time employees through a defined benefit pension
plan sponsored by HCHSC. The Hospital withdrew from the plan in connection with
its acquisition by HTI. The liability or asset associated with the Hospital's
withdrawal, if any, was retained by HCHSC. Pension expense for the years ended
May 31, 1993 and 1994 and the period ended April 13, 1995, were $1,065,000,
$1,050,000 and $210,000, respectively.
HCHSC provided certain management services in the normal course of business
to the Hospital. For 1993, 1994 and 1995, the expenses allocated to the Hospital
were approximately $1,356,000, $1,486,000 and $304,000, respectively.
8. SALE OF ASSETS TO HTI:
As described in Note 1, HCHSC sold the Hospital to HTI in August 1994. At
the time of the sale, HTI assumed Hospital debts in excess of assets retained of
approximately $4,580,000, which has been reflected in the financial statements
as a capital distribution from donor restricted funds of $1,065,000 and a
capital contribution to general funds of $5,645,000.

CHAMPION HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements
do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods
presented have been reflected. Such financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and all wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and
partnerships. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been
eliminated in consolidation.
The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from
audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1995,
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year
ended December 31, 1995.
The Company's business is seasonal in nature and subject to general economic
conditions and other factors. Accordingly, operating results for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996.
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1995. SFAS 123 establishes new financial accounting and reporting
standards for stock-based compensation plans. Entities will be allowed to
measure compensation expense for stock-based compensation under SFAS 123 or APB
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Company has
elected to continue accounting for such compensation under the provisions of APB
Opinion No. 25.
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS 121"), "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of."
SFAS 121, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995,
requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and
used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. The Company's adoption of SFAS 121 on January 1, 1996, had no
material effect on its financial statements.
2. SUMMARIZED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF EQUITY AFFILIATE
The Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, owns 50% of a partnership
operated as Dakota Heartland Health System ("DHHS"). DHHS owns and operates two
general acute care hospitals with a total of 341 beds in Fargo, North Dakota,
and the Company manages the combined operations of the two facilities pursuant
to the partnership agreement and an operating agreement with DHHS. Under the
terms of the partnership agreement, the Company is entitled to 55% of DHHS's net
income and distributable cash flow ("DCF") until such time as it has recovered
on a cumulative basis an additional $10,000,000 of DCF. The Company is also
obligated to advance funds to DHHS to cover any and all operating deficits.

The Company is subject to various loans, notes and mortgages that contain
restrictive covenants which include, among others, restrictions on additional
indebtedness, the payment of dividends and other distributions, the repurchase
of common stock and related securities under certain circumstances, and the
requirement to maintain certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance
with or has obtained permanent waivers for all loan covenants to which it was

4. ACQUISITIONS
JORDAN VALLEY HOSPITAL
On March 1, 1996, the Company acquired Jordan Valley Hospital ("Jordan")
from Columbia/ HCA Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia"). Jordan is a 50 bed acute
care hospital located in West Jordan, Utah, a suburb of Salt Lake City. Jordan
was acquired in exchange for Autauga Medical Center, an 85 bed acute care
hospital, and Autauga Health Care Center, a 72 bed skilled nursing facility,
both in Prattville, Alabama, plus preliminary cash consideration paid to
Columbia of approximately $10,750,000. Cash consideration included approximately
$3,750,000 for certain net working

capital components, which are subject to adjustment and final settlement by the
parties, and reimbursement of certain capital expenditures made previously by
Columbia. The transaction did not result in a gain or loss. The Alabama
facilities were acquired as part of the Company's acquisition of AmeriHealth,
Inc. on December 6, 1994.
The following selected unaudited pro forma financial information for the
three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996, assumes that the acquisition of
Jordan and Salt Lake Regional Medical Center ("SLRMC") occurred on January 1,
1995. The Company acquired SLRMC on April 13, 1995. The pro forma financial
information does not purport to be indicative of the results that actually would
have been obtained had the operations been combined during the periods
presented, and is not intended to be a projection of future results or trends.

5. INCOME PER SHARE
Primary income per common and common equivalent share is calculated by
dividing the income attributable to common stock (net income less preferred
stock dividend requirements and accretion of preferred stock issuance costs) by
the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding
during each period, assuming the exercise of all stock options and warrants,
when dilutive, with an exercise price less than the average market price of the
common stock using the treasury stock method. Fully diluted income per share was
not presented for the quarter ended March 31, 1995, due to the anti-dilutive
effect of such calculation. The fully diluted income per share computation for
the quarter ended March 31, 1996, assumed the conversion of 2,608,176 shares of
convertible preferred stock into a weighted average of 5,216,027 common shares,
and that no preferred dividends on the preferred stock were provided (See Note
6).
The weighted average number of shares used in computing income (loss) per
share are as follows:

6. CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
Effective December 31, 1995, the Company and its Preferred shareholders
entered into the 1995 Recapitalization Agreement that, among other things,
eliminated the accrual of future dividends on its outstanding Preferred Stock.
At March 31, 1996, the Company had outstanding 2,608,176 shares of Series C and
D Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (collectively, "Preferred
Stock") which were convertible into 5,216,352 shares of common stock. The
Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, certain preferred stock
purchase agreements, and its Senior and other debt agreements prohibit or place
limitations on the payment of cash dividends to holders of preferred and common
stock.
7. INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision recorded for the quarters ended March 31, 1995 and
1996 differs from the expected income tax provision due to permanent
differences, the provision for state income taxes and the realization of net
deferred tax assets.
8. CONTINGENCIES
LITIGATION. The Company is subject to claims and legal actions arising in
the ordinary course of operations. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
resolution of such pending legal proceedings will not have a material effect on
the Company's financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY. The Company is self-insured up to $1,000,000 per
occurrence for the payment of claims arising from professional liability risks.
The Company has accrued liabilities for potential professional liability risks
based on estimates for losses limited to $1,000,000 per occurrence and
$4,000,000 in the aggregate. The Company is further insured by a commercial
insurer for claims in excess of these limits up to an additional $10,000,000
over its self-insured retention. In the opinion of management, any unaccrued
damages awarded will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Effective April 12, 1996, the Company executed a definitive Agreement and
Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation,
a privately held California corporation ("Paracelsus") and PC Merger Sub., Inc.,
a newly formed Paracelsus subsidiary. The Merger Agreement provides for, among
other things, the merger of PC Merger Sub., Inc. with and into the Company (the
"Merger"). Each share of the Company's common stock will convert into one share
of Paracelsus common stock, and each share of the Company's Preferred Stock will
convert into two shares of Paracelsus common stock. Dr. Manfred George
Krukemeyer, currently the Chairman of the Board and sole shareholder of
Paracelsus, and members of Paracelsus management will own approximately 60% of
the Company, and current Company security holders will own approximately 40% of
Paracelsus common stock on a fully diluted basis. The consummation of the Merger
is conditioned upon, among other things, Dr. Krukemeyer entering into a
shareholder agreement (the "Shareholder Agreement") with Paracelsus to be
effective at the time of the Merger. The Shareholder Agreement, among other
things, set forth (i) restrictions on certain acquisitions and dispositions of
Paracelsus voting securities, (ii) certain rights and obligations relating to
board representation and (iii) certain rights of first refusal for Dr.
Krukemeyer. The Shareholder agreement will also impose other customary
standstill restrictions. The Merger is subject to a number of customary
conditions including filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
approval of the stockholders of the Company and Paracelsus, and antitrust
filings. In the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated, under certain
circumstances Paracelsus and the Company have agreed to pay a termination fee to
the other.
Effective April 12, 1996, the Company and holders of its 11% Senior
Subordinated Notes under agreements dated December 31, 1993, (the "Series D
Notes") and May 1, 1995, (the "Series E Notes")

and certain holders of its Preferred Stock entered into an Agreement in
Contemplation of the Merger, that among other things provided (i) the parties
thereto holding shares of Preferred Stock agreed to vote their Preferred Shares
for the Merger, (ii) the holders of the Series D Notes agreed among other things
(a) to waive any rights to cause the Company to purchase from such holders the
Series D Notes in the event of a change in control caused by the Merger and (b)
surrender their Series D Notes for prepayment at a premium depending upon the
year of prepayment, and (iii) the holder of the Series E Notes agreed among
other things (x) to waive any rights to cause the Company to purchase from such
holders the Series E Notes in the event of a change in control caused by the
Merger and (y) to surrender their Series E Notes for prepayment at a premium
depending upon the year of such prepayment and upon whether warrants to purchase
Company common stock are surrendered in connection with such prepayment.
Pursuant to the 1995 Recapitalization Agreement entered into by the Company
and certain of its security holders effective December 31, 1995, the Company
agreed to reduce the exercise prices of one series of 680,104 warrants from
$5.90 to $5.25 per share and two series totaling 2,447,670 warrants from $9.00
to $7.00 per shares until May 13, 1996, after which the exercise prices revert
to their prior amounts. As of May 13, 1996, warrants have been exercised to
purchase approximately 2,370,000 shares of common stock, resulting in cash
proceeds to the Company of approximately $8,715,000 and the tender of
approximately $4,840,000 in Company subordinated notes in lieu of cash.
On January 31, 1996, the Company entered into a letter of intent to sell the
149 bed Lakeland Regional Hospital in Springfield, MO, to Columbia/HCA
Healthcare Corporation in exchange for the 100 bed Poplar Springs Hospital in
Petersburg, VA. Both facilities are psychiatric hospitals. On May 6, 1996, the
Company and Columbia mutually agreed to terminate this transaction.

(1) To reflect the pro forma reduction in interest income as a result of the
repayment of a $4,000,000 promissory note due to Paracelsus, which is
expected to be paid in full by Dr. Krukemeyer contemporaneously with the
payment of the Dividend.
(2) To reflect the pro forma reduction in other operating expenses due to the
termination of the Know-how Contract upon consummation of the Merger. See
"Certain Relationships and Related Transactions -- Other Transactions."
(3) To adjust depreciation and amortization expense based on the revaluation of
Champion's depreciable assets and the increase in goodwill in connection
with the allocated purchase price (see Note 12). The acquired assets are
estimated to have an average remaining useful life of approximately 20
years based on the Company's assumption that Champion's hospital assets
consist of 65% buildings and improvements and 35% equipment with the useful
lives of such assets determined in accordance with Paracelsus' depreciation
policy (35 years, 20 years and 10 years for buildings, improvements and
equipment, respectively). Cost in excess of the fair market value of net
assets acquired ("Goodwill") is amortized on a straight line basis over a
20 year period.
(4) To record the pro forma decrease in amortization of deferred financing
costs associated with the Champion Credit Facility, Champion Notes and
certain other Champion indebtedness. Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Combining Statements of Income assume that no value is assigned to such
deferred financing costs in connection with the purchase price allocation.
(5) To record interest expense on the pro forma increase of approximately
$42,482,000 in the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility to pay for various
Merger related expenditures (See Note 9) and the pro forma issuance of the
Shareholder Subordinated Note. The interest rates in effect under the
Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility were 7.9% for the year ended September
30, 1995, 7.8% for the six months ended March 31, 1995, and 6.6% for the
six months ended March 31, 1996. The Shareholder Subordinated Note will
have an annual interest rate of 6.51%. The following table summarizes the
pro forma change in interest expense.

(11) To reflect the pro forma repayment of Dr. Krukemeyer's promissory note due
to Paracelsus ($1,000,000 current, $3,000,000 long-term (see Note 9)).
(12) To record the Merger using the purchase method of accounting, including the
adjustment of Champion's balance sheet to reflect the estimated fair market
value of its property and equipment, based on the per share market price of
Champion Common Stock on April 12, 1996, the last trading day prior to the
announcement of the Merger ($10.50), less a 25% discount to reflect the
limited number of shares of Champion Common Stock that were freely tradable
at the date of the Merger. The Merger Agreement does not specify the
Champion Common Stock market price to be used in the calculation of the
purchase price. The purchase price allocation reflected in the Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Combining Balance Sheet is based upon the best
information currently available without a final independent appraisal of
Champion's facilities. For the purpose of allocating net acquisition costs
among the Champion assets acquired, Paracelsus has tentatively allocated
35% of the excess acquisition cost over the carrying value of Champion's
assets to property and equipment and 65% to Goodwill. It is the intention
of Paracelsus and Champion to more fully evaluate the net assets acquired
and, as a result, the allocation of acquisition cost may change. Paracelsus
and Champion do not expect the final allocation of acquisition cost to be
materially different from that assumed in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Combining Balance Sheet. The following table summarizes the calculation of
the preliminary purchase price allocation (in thousands, except market

PARACELSUS UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following tables present the Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Combining Balance Sheet as of March 31, 1996, and the Paracelsus Unaudited Pro
Forma Condensed Combining Statements of Income for the six months ended March
31, 1996 and 1995 and the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995, to reflect the
effect of the acquisition by Paracelsus of the Columbia Hospitals (Pioneer, a
139-bed hospital in West Valley City, Utah, Davis, a 120-bed hospital in Layton,
Utah, and Santa Rosa, a 129-bed hospital in Milton, Florida) on May 17, 1996,
the sale by Paracelsus of Womans Hospital, a 111-bed hospital in Jackson,
Mississippi on September 30, 1995 and the closure of the Closed Facility,
Bellwood Health Center, a psychiatric facility in Bellwood, California, on April
24, 1995. The Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Balance Sheet
assumes that the acquisition of the Columbia Hospitals occurred on March 31,
1996, and the Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Combining Statements of Income
assume that the acquisition of the Columbia Hospitals occurred at the beginning
of each period and the sale of Womans Hospital and the closure of the Closed
Facility occurred on October 1, 1994.
Paracelsus acquired the Columbia Hospitals from Columbia for consideration
consisting of $38,500,000 in cash and the exchange of the Exchanged Hospitals
(Peninsula, a 119-bed hospital in Ormond Beach, Florida, Elmwood, a 135-bed
hospital in Jefferson, Louisiana, and Halstead, a 190-bed hospital in Halstead,
Kansas). The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. Paracelsus
financed the cash portion of the acquisition of the Columbia Hospitals from
borrowings under the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility. Paracelsus also
engaged in the Real Property Purchase and Sale Transaction whereby it purchased
the real property of Elmwood and Halstead from a REIT, exchanged the Elmwood and
Halstead real properties with Columbia for Pioneer's real property, and sold
Pioneer's real property to the REIT.
Paracelsus sold Womans Hospital to the facility's lessee for $17,800,000 in
cash, which resulted in a gain of $9,189,000. In August of 1994, Paracelsus had
divested the operations of Womans Hospital and entered into an operating lease
agreement with the lessee, which granted the lessee the option to purchase the
facility at an amount defined in the lease agreement.
In connection with the closure of the Closed Facility, Paracelsus recorded a
restructuring charge of $973,000 for employee severance benefits and contract
termination costs.
The Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statement of Income
for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995 includes Paracelsus' historical
results of operations for the fiscal year ended Septembe 30, 1995 and the
Columbia Hospitals' historical results of operations for the year ended December
31, 1995. The Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statement of
Income for the six months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996 include Paracelsus' and
the Columbia Hospitals' historical results of operations for the same six-month
period. The Paracelsis Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Balance Sheet
includes the historical balance sheet of Paracelsus and the Columbia Hospitals
as of March 31, 1996.
The Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Financial Statements
do not purport to present the financial position or results of operations of
Paracelsus had the acquisitions occurred on the dates specified, nor are they
necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected in the
future. The Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Financial
Statements following are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and should
be read in conjunction with, the historical consolidated financial statements of
Paracelsus and the historical combined financial statements of the Columbia
Hospitals included elsewhere herein.

Paracelsus assumed there would be no incremental increase in corporate
overhead as a result of the acquisition of the Columbia Hospitals and the
related disposition of the Exchanged Hospitals because the overall corporate
overhead after the transaction is expected to be the same as it was before
the transactions.
(3) To adjust depreciation and amortization based on the revaluation of the
acquired depreciable assets to fair value and the increase in Goodwill in
connection with the purchase price allocation (see Note 8). The acquired
assets are estimated to have an average useful life of approximately 18
years based on an allocation of the appraised values of the assets acquired
and the useful lives of such assets in accordance with Paracelsus'
depreciation policy (35 years, 20 years and 10 years for buildings,
improvements, and equipment, respectively). The Goodwill is being amortized
over a 20-year period. Depreciation and amortization are estimated to
decrease on a pro forma basis, as follows (in thousands):

CHAMPION UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINING STATEMENTS OF INCOME AND
UNAUDITED HISTORICAL CONDENSED BALANCE SHEET
The following tables present the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining
Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the six months
ended March 31, 1995 and 1996, to illustrate the effect of Champion's
acquisition of Jordan Valley, a 50-bed hospital in West Jordan, Utah, on March
1, 1996, the acquisition of SLRMC, a 200-bed hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah,
on April 13, 1995, the formation of DHHS, the partnership between the wholly
owned subsidiary of Champion that owned Heartland Medical Center ("Heartland"),
a 142-bed general acute care hospital in Fargo, North Dakota, and Dakota
Hospital ("Dakota"), a not-for-profit corporation that owned a 199-bed general
acute care hospital also in Fargo, North Dakota, effective December 31, 1994 and
the AmeriHealth Merger on December 6, 1994. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Combining Statements of Income assume the acquisition of Jordan Valley occurred
at the beginning of each period. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining
Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the six months
ended March 31, 1995 assume the acquisition of SLRMC occurred on January 1, 1995
and October 1, 1994, respectively. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining
Statement of Income for the six months ended March 31, 1995 assumes the
formation of DHHS and the AmeriHealth Merger occurred October 1, 1994. The
Unaudited Historical Condensed Balance Sheet is presented for informational
purposes only.
Jordan Valley is a 50-bed acute care hospital located in West Jordan, Utah,
a suburb of Salt Lake City. Jordan Valley was acquired from Columbia in exchange
for Autauga, an 85-bed acute care hospital and a 72-bed skilled nursing
facility, both in Prattville, Alabama, plus preliminary cash consideration paid
to Columbia of approximately $10,750,000. Cash consideration included
approximately $3,750,000 for certain net working capital components, which are
subject to adjustment and final settlement by the parties, and reimbursement of
certain capital expenditures made previously by Columbia. The acquisition was
accounted for as a purchase transaction with operations reflected in the
consolidated financial statements beginning March 1, 1996.
SLRMC is comprised of a 200-bed tertiary care hospital and five clinics and
is located in Salt Lake City, Utah. SLRMC was acquired from Columbia for total
consideration of approximately $61,042,000, which consisted of approximately
$56,816,000 in cash and a note payable due to Columbia of approximately
$1,767,000, as well as the assumption of approximately $2,459,000 in capital
lease obligations. Cash consideration included approximately $11,783,000 for
certain working capital components, resulting in a net purchase price of
approximately $49,259,000. Champion funded the asset purchase from available
cash and approximately $30,000,000 in borrowings under its then outstanding
credit facility, which Champion subsequently repaid from the proceeds from the
issuance of the Champion Series E Notes. The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase transaction with operations reflected in the consolidated financial
statements beginning April 14, 1995.
On December 6, 1994, Champion's predecessor merged with AmeriHealth. The
AmeriHealth Merger was accounted for as a recapitalization of Champion with
Champion as the acquiror (a reverse acquisition). The common shareholders of
AmeriHealth received one share of Champion common stock for every 5.70358 shares
of common stock of AmeriHealth and a cash distribution of $0.085 per AmeriHealth
common share. The common shareholders of Champion's predecessor received one
share of Champion Common Stock for each predecessor share of common stock
outstanding prior to the AmeriHealth Merger. The preferred shareholders of
Champion's predecessor received one share of Champion preferred stock for each
predecessor share of preferred stock outstanding prior to the AmeriHealth
Merger. Additionally, Champion assumed approximately $17,700,000 in debt,
resulting in a net purchase price of approximately $38,876,000. The AmeriHealth
Merger was accounted for as a purchase transaction. AmeriHealth owned and
managed two acute care hospitals with a combined total of 265 licensed beds:
Metropolitan Hospital in Richmond, Virginia with 180 beds and Autauga Medical
Center in Prattville, Alabama with 85 beds. AmeriHealth also owned a 72 bed
skilled nursing facility, Autauga Health Care Center in Prattville, Alabama.

In connection with the formation of DHHS, Champion and Dakota contributed
their respective hospitals both debt and lien free (except for capitalized
leases), and Champion contributed an additional $20,000,000 in cash, each in
exchange for 50% ownership in DHHS. In addition, each partner contributed
$2,000,000 in cash to the working capital of DHHS. A $20,000,000 special
distribution was made to Dakota after capitalization of DHHS in accordance with
the terms of the partnership agreement. The ownership interest acquired by each
partner was based on the value of the assets contributed to DHHS. Also on
December 21, 1994, Champion entered into an operating agreement with DHHS and
Dakota to manage the combined operations of the two hospitals. Under the terms
of the partnership agreement, Champion is obligated to advance funds to DHHS to
cover any and all operating deficits of DHHS. Champion will receive 55% of the
net income and distributable cash flow ("DCF") of DHHS until such time as it has
recovered on a cumulative basis an additional $10,000,000 of DCF in the form of
an "excess" distribution. Champion accounts for its investment in DHHS under the
equity method.
These Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statements of Income do not
purport to present the financial position or results of operations of Champion
had the acquisitions occurred on the dates specified, nor are they necessarily
indicative of the results of operations that may be expected in the future. The
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statements of Income following are
qualified in their entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction
with, the historical consolidated financial statements of Champion included
elsewhere herein.

<PAGE>
NOTES TO CHAMPION UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED COMBINING STATEMENTS OF INCOME
(1) Summarized from Champion's historical financial statements.
(2) To remove the historical operating results of Autauga.
(3) To reflect a decrease in interest earnings for the pro forma decrease in
cash. This adjustment assumes that approximately $26,248,000 of SLRMC
acquisition costs were paid from available cash at January 1, 1995. Interest
earnings are computed at 3.35% for the six months ended March 31, 1995 and
5.63% for the period January 1, 1995 through April 13, 1995. Such
percentages represent Champion's average investment rate for the period.
(4) To record a pro forma decrease of approximately $1,091,000 and $1,255,000 in
management fees charged to Jordan Valley by Columbia for the year ended
December 31, 1995, and the six months ended March 31, 1996, respectively.
Champion does not believe that overhead and other costs allocable to the
facility will be materially different from costs incurred historically by
Champion with respect to its management of Autauga.
(5) To adjust depreciation expense for the step up in basis for the depreciable
assets of Jordan Valley and SLRMC. The allocation with respect to SLRMC was
based on an independent appraisal obtained by Champion and resulted in a pro
forma decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $665,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1995 and $1,150,000 for the six months ended March
31, 1995. With respect to Jordan Valley, the acquired assets are estimated
to have an average remaining useful life of approximately 17 years based on
management's assumption that an acute care hospital's assets consist of 50%
buildings and 50% equipment with a 30-year life and a five-year life,
respectively. Based on this preliminary allocation, depreciation expense
increased approximately $190,000 and $244,000 on a pro forma basis for the
year ended December 31, 1995 and the six months ended March 31, 1996,
respectively and decreased approximately $59,000 for the six months ended
March 31, 1995.
(6) To record interest expense on the pro forma increase in the Champion Credit
Facility, the Champion Notes and notes payable as a result of its
acquisitions' of Jordan Valley and SLRMC.
With respect to Jordan Valley, the Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statement
of Income assumes Champion increased the principal amount outstanding under
its revolving credit facility by $10,750,000 as of January 1, 1995 and
October 1, 1995. Such amount is comprised of $7,000,000 in cash
consideration attributable to property and equipment and approximately
$3,750,000 for certain net working capital components, which are subject to
adjustment and final settlement by the parties. The average interest rates
in effect under the Champion Credit Facility were 9.33% for the year ended
December 31, 1995 and 8.91% and 8.81% for the six months ended 1995 and
1996, respectively.
With respect to SLRMC, the Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statement of Income
for the year ended December 31, 1995 assumes Champion financed the
acquisition of SLRMC through (i) the issuance of $30,000,000 principal
amount of Series E Notes at an effective annual interest rate of 11.35% and
(ii) a note payable to Columbia in the amount of approximately $1,767,000
bearing interest at an effective annual rate of 10%. Such debentures and
notes are assumed to have been issued on January 1, 1995.
Interest expense with respect to the above increased approximately
$2,094,000 on a pro forma basis for the year ended December 31, 1995 and
approximately $2,270,000 and $393,000 for the six months ended March 31,
1995 and 1996, respectively, less $19,000, $19,000 and $5,000, respectively,
associated with Autauga capital lease obligations.
PF-27
<PAGE>
NOTES TO CHAMPION UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED COMBINING STATEMENTS OF INCOME (CONTINUED)
(7) To reflect the pro forma provision for income taxes due to the inclusion of
the acquired operations and, for the six months ended March 31, 1996, to
eliminate the effect of fiscal 1995 net operating loss utilization on the
fiscal 1996 annual period. For the year ended December 31, 1995, loss
carryovers of Champion can be utilized to reduce the provision for income
taxes.
(8) To reflect a decrease in interest earnings of approximately $229,000 for
the pro forma decrease in cash as a result of Champion's $20,000,000 capital
contribution to DHHS, its $2,000,000 contribution to DHHS working capital
and with respect to the AmeriHealth Merger, the retirement of an $8,516,000
loan held by the Resolution Trust Corporation (the "RTC Loan"), net of a
discount of approximately $384,000 obtained by Champion concurrent with the
AmeriHealth Merger. Such funds were assumed expended on of October 1, 1994.
Interest earnings are computed at 3.35%, Champion's average investment rate
for the period.
(9) To remove the historical operating results of HMC for the three months
ended December 31, 1994. Champion contributed Heartland to DHHS effective
December 31, 1994.
(10) To remove approximately $1,074,000 in merger related expenses incurred by
AmeriHealth.
(11) Reflects a $42,000 pro forma increase to depreciation expense based upon
the step up in basis for the depreciable assets of AmeriHealth.
(12) Reflects a pro forma reduction in interest expense of approximately
$136,000 related to the retirement of the RTC Loan concurrent with the
AmeriHealth Merger. The Champion Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining
Statement of Income assumes the RTC Loan was retired from available funds on
October 1, 1994.
(13) To record Champion's equity in the pro forma earnings of DHHS for the three
months ended December 31, 1994. DHHS began operations effective January 1,
1995.
(14) To adjust common and common equivalent shares used to calculate loss per
share. The pro forma adjustment reflects the following events:
(a) The exchange of each 5.70358 shares of AmeriHealth common and common
equivalent shares into one share of the Champion Common Stock. For the
two months ended November 31, 1994, AmeriHealth's weighted average common
and common equivalent shares would have decreased from 16,924,000 shares
to 2,967,000 shares of the Champion Common Stock.
(b) Champion purchased 880,000 shares of the AmeriHealth's common stock in a
private transaction, which were retired concurrent with the AmeriHealth
Merger, resulting in a reduction of 154,000 shares of Champion Common
Stock that would have otherwise been issued.
The common shareholders of Champion's predecessor received one share of
Champion Common Stock for each predecessor share of common stock
outstanding prior to the AmeriHealth Merger. The preferred shareholders
of Champion's predecessor received one share of Champion preferred stock
for each predecessor share of preferred stock outstanding prior to the
the AmeriHealth Merger.
The following table summarizes the adjustment to shares used in the
calculation of loss per share:

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Section 317 of the California Corporations Code authorizes a court to award,
or a corporation's Board of Directors to grant, indemnity to directors and
officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under
certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses
incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Article IV of the Registrant's
Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (Exhibit 3.1 hereto) and Article
V of the Registrant's Amended and Restated Bylaws (Exhibit 3.2 hereto) provide
for indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and other agents to
the maximum extent permitted by the California Corporations Code. In addition,
the Registrant has entered into Indemnification Agreements (Exhibit 10.56
hereto) with certain of its officers and directors. Reference is also made to
Section 6 of the Underwriting Agreement (Exhibit 1.1 hereto) which provides for
the indemnification of officers, directors and controlling persons of the
Registrant against certain liabilities.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted 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.
(b) The Registrant undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, the information omitted from the form of Prospectus filed as part
of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in
the 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.
(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.
