PARACELSUS HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
10% SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES DUE 2006
The 10% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 are being offered by Paracelsus
Healthcare Corporation (the "Company") concurrently with the Merger pursuant to
which Champion Healthcare Corporation will become a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Company. Concurrently with the Notes Offering, the Company is offering an
aggregate of 4,600,000 shares of the Company's common stock (5,200,000 shares if
the underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full) in the Equity
Offering. Consummation of each of the Notes Offering and the Equity Offering is
contingent upon the consummation of the Merger; however, neither the Notes
Offering nor the Equity Offering is contingent upon the consummation of the
other.
The Notes will mature on August 15, 2006. Interest on the Notes is payable
semi-annually, in arrears, on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing
February 15, 1997. The Notes will be redeemable at the option of the Company, in
whole or in part, at any time on or after August 15, 2001, at the redemption
prices set forth herein, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the
redemption date. The Company will not be required to make any mandatory
redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes prior to maturity;
however, in the event of a Change of Control, the Company will be required to
make an offer to purchase the Notes, at a price equal to 101% of the principal
amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the purchase date.
The Notes will be general unsecured obligations of the Company, will be
subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior Indebtedness
of the Company, including borrowings under the New Credit Facility, and will
rank PARI PASSU with any 9 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2003 of Paracelsus
that remain outstanding after completion of the Debt Tender Offer. On a pro
forma basis giving effect to the Merger, the Notes Offering and the Equity
Offering and the application of the net proceeds therefrom, the Notes would have
been subordinated to $165.4 million of the Company's indebtedness at June 30,
1996, of which $156.9 million would have been secured Senior Indebtedness of the
Company, and $8.5 million would have been indebtedness and other obligations of
subsidiaries of the Company.

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 (or $13.2 million, net of
taxes) related to the settlement of two lawsuits.
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
$7.2 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 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 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 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.
4
<PAGE>
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 is offering (the "Equity Offering") 4,600,000 newly-issued
shares of common stock, no stated value per share (the "Common Stock"),
concurrently with the offering of Notes made hereby (the "Notes Offering" and,
together with the Equity Offering, the "Offerings"). In addition, the Company
has granted the underwriters an option to purchase up to 600,000 additional
shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments, if any.
The Company currently intends that a portion of the estimated aggregate net
proceeds to the Company from the Offerings of $351.6 million (consisting of
$314.8 million from the Notes Offering and $36.8 million from the Equity
Offering) will be used by Champion to prepay an estimated $170.6 million of
outstanding Champion indebtedness (plus $6.6 million of prepayment premiums) as
of June 30, 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 Time"), as applicable. In addition, the Company has commenced a
tender offer to purchase up to $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of
outstanding Existing Senior Subordinated Notes for $1,027.50 per $1,000
principal amount of Existing Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Debt Tender
Offer"). The Debt Tender Offer will expire on August 22, 1996 and, as of August
13, 1996, approximately $73.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Existing
Senior Subordinated Notes has been tendered in the Debt Tender Offer. A portion
of the remaining net proceeds from the Offerings will be
5
<PAGE>
used to purchase Existing Senior Subordinated Notes tendered pursuant to the
Debt Tender Offer and to pay consent payments of up to $1.5 million in the
aggregate to be made in connection with the related consent solicitation to
amend the terms of the indenture relating to the Existing Senior Subordinated
Notes. Neither the Notes Offering nor the Equity 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 $149.0 million would have been outstanding as of
June 30, 1996 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the Offerings and the
Credit Facility Refinancing and the application of the net proceeds therefrom.

been $5,775, $2,175 and $(7,867) for the fiscal year ended September 30,
1995 and the six months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively. For the
same periods, income (loss) per share would have been $0.11, $0.04 and
$(0.17), respectively. At March 31, 1996, pro forma total debt and
shareholders' equity would have been $436,387 and $210,362, respectively.
(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) Includes capital expenditures for special construction projects at BayCoast
Medical Center and Westwood Medical Center of $38,047, $9,449 and $10,496
for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995 and the six months ended March
31, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
(8) Represents pro forma total debt outstanding less cash and cash equivalents
as of March 31, 1996 divided by pro forma Adjusted EBITDA of $88,104 for the
12 months ended March 31, 1996.

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 NOTES OFFERED HEREBY. CERTAIN STATEMENTS UNDER THIS CAPTION
"RISK FACTORS" CONSTITUTE "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" UNDER THE REFORM ACT. SEE
"-- FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS."
SIGNIFICANT LEVERAGE
As of June 30, 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 $497.6 million, which represents 67% of its total capitalization. See
"Capitalization." In addition, upon consummation of the Offerings and the Credit
Facility Refinancing, the Company expects to have $251.0 million of 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 in accordance
with their respective 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 $10.1
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 Notes,
the New Credit Facility and the Company's other indebtedness. 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. See
"Description of the New Credit Facility." In addition, the Indenture will
include covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and
its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, make prepayments 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 consolidations and enter a new line of business. See
"Description of the Notes -- Certain Covenants." The Company's failure to comply
with any of these covenants could result in an event of default, thereby
permitting acceleration of such indebtedness as well as indebtedness under other
instruments that contain cross-acceleration or cross-default provisions,
including the New Credit Facility and the Indenture, which in turn could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations. See "Description of the New Credit Facility."
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.

<PAGE>
SUBORDINATION; HOLDING COMPANY STRUCTURE
The Notes will be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and
future Senior Indebtedness of the Company. On a pro forma basis after giving
effect to the Merger and the Offerings and the application of the net proceeds
therefrom, the Notes would have been subordinated to $165.4 million of the
Company's indebtedness at June 30, 1996 ($202.2 million without giving effect to
the Equity Offering), of which $156.9 million would have been Senior
Indebtedness of the Company ($193.7 million without giving effect to the Equity
Offering), all of which would have been secured indebtedness. In addition, upon
the consummation of the Offerings and the Credit Facility Refinancing, the
Company expects to have available $251.0 million of unused borrowing capacity
under the New Credit Facility (before reduction for approximately $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 in
accordance with their respective terms. All indebtedness incurred under the New
Credit Facility will constitute Senior Indebtedness and will be secured. In
addition, the Indenture limits the amount of indebtedness that may be incurred
by the Company; however, to the extent that the Indenture permits additional
indebtedness to be incurred, it does not limit the amount of such indebtedness
that may be senior to the Notes. See "Description of the Notes."
The Company generally may not pay the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on, the Notes or repurchase, redeem or otherwise retire any Notes if
any obligation in respect of any Senior Indebtedness has not been paid when due
or any other default on Senior Indebtedness occurs and the maturity of such
Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its terms, unless, in
either case, the default has been cured or waived, any such acceleration has
been rescinded or such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full. In addition,
if any other default exists with respect to certain Senior Indebtedness and
certain other conditions are satisfied, the Company may not make any payment on
the Notes for a designated period of time. Upon any payment or distribution of
the assets of the Company upon a total or partial dissolution of the Company or
in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding
relating to the Company, the holders of Senior Indebtedness will be entitled to
receive payment in full before the holders of the Notes are entitled to receive
any payment. See "Description of the Notes -- Subordination."
Borrowings under the New Credit Facility will be secured by a first priority
lien on the capital stock of most of the Company's significant subsidiaries. The
Notes will be unsecured. If the Company becomes insolvent or is liquidated, or
if its indebtedness is accelerated, the lenders under the New Credit Facility
will be entitled to payment in full from the proceeds of their security prior to
any payment to holders of the Notes. In such event, it is possible that there
would be no assets remaining from which claims of the holders of Notes could be
satisfied or, if any assets remain, such assets may be insufficient to satisfy
fully such claims. See "Description of the New Credit Facility."
The Notes will also be effectively subordinated to all existing and future
liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries. As of June 30, 1996, on a pro forma
basis after giving effect to the Merger and the Offerings and the application of
the net proceeds therefrom, the amount of all indebtedness and other obligations
of the Company's subsidiaries would have been $8.5 million of the $165.4 million
of the Company's indebtedness to which the Notes would have been effectively
subordinated. Substantially all of the Company's operations are conducted, and
substantially all of the Company's assets are owned, by its subsidiaries. As a
consequence, the Company's ability to make required principal and interest
payments with respect to the Company's indebtedness, including the Notes,
depends on the earnings of its subsidiaries and its ability to receive funds
from such subsidiaries through dividends or other payments. The Notes are
obligations of the Company only, and the Company's subsidiaries are not
obligated or required to pay any amounts due pursuant to the Notes or to make
funds available therefor in the form of dividends or advances to the Company.
Any right of the Company to participate in any distribution of the assets of any
of the Company's subsidiaries upon the liquidation, reorganization or insolvency
of such subsidiary (and the consequent right of the holders of the Notes to
participate in those assets) will be subject to the claims of the creditors
(including trade creditors) and preferred shareholders, if any, of such
subsidiary, except to the extent the Company has a claim
11
<PAGE>
against such subsidiary as a creditor of such subsidiary. In addition, in the
event that claims of the Company as a creditor of such subsidiary are
recognized, such claims would be subordinate to any security interest in the
assets of such subsidiary and any indebtedness of such subsidiary senior to that
held by the Company. However, the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to
incur certain obligations in the future is limited by certain of the restrictive
covenants contained in the New Credit Facility and in the Indenture. See
"Description of the Notes" and "Description of the New Credit Facility."
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.
12
<PAGE>
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 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.
13
<PAGE>
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 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.
14
<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.
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.
POSSIBLE INABILITY TO REPURCHASE NOTES UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL
In the event of a Change of Control, the Company will be required to offer
to purchase the Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to
15
<PAGE>
the purchase date. The terms of the New Credit Facility will prohibit the
Company from repurchasing Notes upon the occurrence of a Change of Control.
Accordingly, the Company may not be able to satisfy its obligations to
repurchase the Notes unless the Company is able to refinance or obtain waivers
with respect to the New Credit Facility and certain other indebtedness. There
can be no assurance that the Company will have the financial resources necessary
to purchase all of the Notes tendered by the holders thereof in the event of a
Change of Control, particularly if such Change of Control requires the Company
to refinance, or results in the acceleration of, the New Credit Facility or any
other indebtedness. See "Description of the Notes" and "Description of the New
Credit Facility."
LACK OF PUBLIC MARKET
The Notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading markets.
The Underwriters (as defined below) have advised the Company that each of them
currently intends to make a market in the Notes as permitted by applicable laws
and regulations. However, the Underwriters are under no obligation to do so and
may discontinue any market making activities at any time at the sole discretion
of each Underwriter. There can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any market
that may develop for the Notes, the ability of holders to sell their Notes or
the price at which holders would be able to sell their Notes. If a trading
market does not develop or is not maintained, holders of the Notes may
experience difficulty in reselling them or may be unable to sell them at all. If
a trading market for the Notes develops, the Notes may trade at a discount from
their principal amount. Future trading prices of the Notes will depend on many
factors, including prevailing interest rates, the Company's operating results,
factors relating to the healthcare market generally and the market for similar
securities. The Company does not intend to apply for listing of the Notes on any
securities exchange.

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.
The Merger was approved by Champion's stockholders on August 9, 1996.
PARACELSUS DIVIDEND PRIOR TO EFFECTIVE TIME
Prior to the Effective Time, Paracelsus will declare a dividend (the
"Dividend") in the amount of approximately $21.1 million, plus $3,574 for each
day from and including July 31, 1996 to the date the Dividend is paid, payable
to Park Hospital GmbH, a German corporation wholly owned by Dr. Manfred George
Krukemeyer, the Chairman of the Board and principal shareholder of the Company
(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 10 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 indenture with
respect to the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes (including without limitation
the New Credit Facility); (ii) the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes, to the
extent outstanding; (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 has received commitments 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, NationsBank of
Texas, N.A. ("NationsBank"), as Managing Agent, Credit Lyonnais New York branch,
as Co-Agent, and Toronto-Dominion Bank, as Co-Agent, and a syndicate of other
lenders and intends to consummate the Credit Facility Refinancing 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 June 30, 1996, the
balance outstanding under the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility was
approximately $198.0 million. The Merger is not conditioned upon the closing of
the Credit Facility Refinancing. Although the Company currently intends to
consummate the Credit Facility Refinancing concurrently with or promptly
following the consummation of the Notes Offering, unless the context otherwise
requires, all references in this Prospectus to the Company's indebtedness assume
that the Credit Facility Refinancing has not occurred and that the Existing
Paracelsus Credit Facility is in effect. See "Risk Factors -- Significant
Leverage."

(1) After giving effect to the Offerings and the application of net proceeds
therefrom, $145.0 million would have been outstanding under the Existing
Paracelsus Credit Facility as of June 30, 1996 on a pro forma basis. After
giving effect to the Credit Facility Refinancing, this amount would be
$149.0 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.

<PAGE>
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company intends that a portion of the estimated aggregate net proceeds
to the Company of $314.8 million from the Notes Offering and $36.8 million
($41.5 million if the over-allotment option is exercised) from the Equity
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 June 30, 1996: (i) $65.6
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 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 $174.4 million from the Offerings ($179.1 million if the
over-allotment option is exercised) will be used (i) to purchase up to $75.0
million aggregate principal amount of outstanding Existing Senior Subordinated
Notes pursuant to the Debt Tender Offer, and pay consent fees and other related
expenses of approximately $3.9 million and (ii) to reduce outstanding
indebtedness under the Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility or the New Credit
Facility, as applicable. Consummation of the Notes Offering is not contingent
upon the Equity Offering, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when
the Equity Offering will be consummated. In the event that the Equity Offering
is not consummated, the net proceeds of the Notes Offering will be sufficient to
refinance the Champion indebtedness described above, however the Company will
have more debt outstanding and less borrowing capacity available under the
Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility or New Credit Facility, as applicable. See
"Capitalization."

(1) To record the pro forma increase in amortization of deferred financing
costs as a result of the $325,000,000 Notes Offering. The Notes are assumed
to have a term of 10 years, with deferred financing costs and estimated
expenses assumed to equal approximately $10,188,000. Deferred financing
costs are assumed capitalized in long-term assets and amortized over the
term of the Notes. The pro forma increase in long-term assets is net of
approximately $2,180,000 in deferred financing cost associated with the
Existing Senior Subordinated Notes, which are assumed written off in
connection with the repurchase of such Existing Senior Subordinated Notes
pursuant to the Debt Tender Offer (see Note 7). The following table
summarizes the pro forma changes in amortization of deferred financing
costs:

(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 reflect 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; (v) the Existing
Senior Subordinated Notes, including tender and consent fees and other
related expenses estimated to total approximately 5.25% of the face value
of the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes; and (vi) 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 Statements of Income and the Paracelsus and
Champion Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statements of Income
included elsewhere herein (items (i) through (vi), the "Old Debt Amounts").
The Old Debt Amounts averaged approximately $327,012,000 for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1995, and approximately $308,366,000 and
$382,082,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996,
respectively.
(3) To reflect the pro forma provision for income taxes at the effective rate
of 41%.
(4) For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings
include income before fixed charges, provision for Federal and state income
taxes and minority interests. Fixed charges consist of interest expense,
including amortization of financing costs and the interest component of
capitalized leases and that portion of operating lease expense which the
Company believes is representative of the interest component of rental
expense. For the six months ended March 31, 1996, after giving effect to
the Merger, the Notes Offering and the Equity Offering, combined pro forma
earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges by $9,375,000, $11,342,000
and $10,129,000, respectively.
(5) To reflect the consummation of the Equity Offering and the application of
the estimated net proceeds of $36,754,000 therefrom to reduce outstanding
indebtedness under the Existing

Paracelsus Credit Facility. On a pro forma basis, after application of

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.
31
<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
32
<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
33
<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.

<PAGE>
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.

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.
38
<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, 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
39
<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.
40
<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
41
<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
42
<PAGE>
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 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 (or
$13.2 million, net of taxes) related to the settlement of two lawsuits.
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
$7.2 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 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
44
<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 WMC 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
hospital admissions, the Company focuses on supporting and retaining existing
physicians and attracting
45
<PAGE>
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 capability to
quantify data regarding the quality of care in its hospitals will enable the
Company to
46
<PAGE>
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.
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
47
<PAGE>
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 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
48
<PAGE>
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 WMC, 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 WMC has
inherent cost efficiencies that have resulted from it being a newly constructed
facility.
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
49
<PAGE>
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, 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
50
<PAGE>
("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
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.
53
<PAGE>
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
54
<PAGE>
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 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.
55
<PAGE>
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 pays 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 11 states in which the Company operates, a
CON is required in Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Tennessee
and Virginia.
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 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
56
<PAGE>
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 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
57
<PAGE>
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
healthcare 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 expenditures, earnings or
competitive position.
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
58
<PAGE>
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 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
65
<PAGE>
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 to acquire Common Stock ("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.
(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 Board. 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
66

Named Executive Officers. In addition, pursuant to their respective Employment
Agreements (as defined below), the Company has granted additional options under

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").

</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 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 described 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.
68
<PAGE>
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
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
Agreement. 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 are 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 a period of
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 of employment
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,
69
<PAGE>
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 4999 of the Code.
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 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 of 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

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
employment any current key employee or officer of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries; PROVIDED, that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to

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 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 THE NOTES
GENERAL
The Notes will be issued pursuant to the Indenture to be dated as of August
16, 1996 between the Company and AmSouth Bank of Alabama, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), a copy of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. The terms of the Notes include
those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference
to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act"). The
Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the
Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement thereof. The following
summary of certain provisions of the Indenture does not purport to be complete
and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture, including the
definitions therein of certain terms used below. The definitions of certain
terms used in the following summary are set forth below under "-- Certain
Definitions." Capitalized terms not otherwise defined below or elsewhere in this
Prospectus have the meanings given to them in the Indenture. As used in this
"Description of the Notes," the term the "Company" refers to Paracelsus
Healthcare Corporation and not to any of its subsidiaries.
The Notes will be general unsecured obligations of the Company, subordinated
in right of payment to all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the
Company, including Indebtedness pursuant to the Existing Paracelsus Credit
Facility and, upon consummation of the Credit Facility Refinancing, the New
Credit Facility. See "-- Subordination." On a pro forma basis, after giving
effect to the Merger and the Offerings and the application of the net proceeds
therefrom, the Company would have had $156.9 million of Senior Indebtedness
outstanding at June 30, 1996 ($193.7 million without giving effect to the Equity
Offering), all of which would have been secured indebtedness. The Notes will
also be effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and
other liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries (including Champion), which
after giving effect to the Merger and the Offerings would have been
approximately $8.5 million at June 30, 1996.
PRINCIPAL, MATURITY AND INTEREST
The Notes will be limited to $325,000,000 in aggregate principal amount and
will mature on August 15, 2006. Interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of
10% per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and
August 15 of each year, commencing February 15, 1997, to Holders of record on
the immediately preceding February 1 and August 1, respectively. Interest on the
Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or,
if no interest has been paid, from the date of original issuance. Interest will
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.
Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable at the
office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within the City and
State of New York or, at the option of the Company, payments of interest may be
made by check mailed to the Holders of the Notes at their respective addresses
set forth in the register of Holders of Notes. Until otherwise designated by the
Company, the Company's office or agency in New York will be the office of the
Trustee maintained for such purpose. The Notes will be issued in denominations
of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.
SUBORDINATION
The indebtedness evidenced by the Notes will, to the extent set forth in the
Indenture, be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in
full of all Senior Indebtedness, and will rank PARI PASSU with any Existing
Senior Subordinated Notes that remain outstanding after completion of the Debt
Tender Offer. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company to
creditors upon any liquidation, dissolution, winding up, reorganization,
assignment for the benefit of creditors, marshaling of assets or any bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar proceedings of the Company, the holders of Senior
Indebtedness will first be entitled to receive payment in full of all
Obligations due in respect of Senior Indebtedness (including interest accruing
after the commencement of a bankruptcy or insolvency at the rate specified in
the applicable Senior Indebtedness and including, without limitation, in respect
of premiums, indemnities or otherwise, and all indebtedness under the
77
<PAGE>
Existing Paracelsus Credit Facility and, upon consummation of the Credit
Facility Refinancing, the New Credit Facility which is disallowed, avoided or
subordinated pursuant to Section 548 of Title 11, United States Code or any
applicable state fraudulent conveyance law), before the Holders of Notes will be
entitled to receive any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
the Notes, including any amounts that become due as a result of a Change of
Control Offer or an Asset Sale Offer, and until all Obligations with respect to
Senior Indebtedness are paid in full, any distribution to which the holders of
Notes would be entitled shall be made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
(except that holders of Notes may receive and retain securities ("Junior
Securities") distributed or paid in respect of the Notes that are subordinated
at least to the same extent as the Notes to Senior Indebtedness).
The Company also may not make any payment upon or in respect of the Notes
(except in Junior Securities) if (i) a default in the payment of the principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing
beyond any applicable period of grace (whether by acceleration or otherwise) or
(ii) any other default shall have occurred and be continuing that would permit
holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity of such
Designated Senior Indebtedness and the Trustee and the Company receive a written
notice (a "Payment Blockage Notice") of such default from the holders of such
Designated Senior Indebtedness. With respect to clause (ii) above, if such
Designated Senior Indebtedness is not declared due and payable within 180 days
after written notice of the event of default is given, promptly after the end of
the 180-day period the Company shall resume making any and all payments in
respect of the Notes, including any missed payments. In the case of a payment
default, the Company shall resume making any and all required payments in
respect of the Notes, including any missed payments, on the date on which such
payment default is cured or waived. During any 360-day consecutive period, only
one such period during which payment with respect to the Notes may not be made
may commence and the duration of such period may not exceed 180 days. No
nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any
Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a
subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such nonpayment default shall have
been waived for a period of not less than 90 days.
Nothing in the Indenture or in the Notes affects the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and premium,
if any, and interest on the Notes. The failure to make any payment on the Notes
by reason of the provisions of the Indenture described under this "--
Subordination" will not be construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event of
Default with respect to the Notes arising from any such failure to make payment.
By reason of such subordination, in the event of insolvency, creditors of
the Company who are not holders of Senior Indebtedness or of the Notes may
recover less, ratably, than holders of Senior Indebtedness and may recover more,
ratably, than the Holders of the Notes.
The subordination provisions described above will cease to be applicable to
the Notes upon any defeasance or covenant defeasance of the Notes as described
under "-- Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance."
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
The Notes will not be redeemable at the Company's option prior to August 15,
2001 except as set forth under "-- Certain Covenants -- Change of Control,"
below. Thereafter, the Notes will be subject to redemption at the option of the
Company, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices (expressed as
78
<PAGE>
percentages of principal amount) set forth below, if redeemed during the
12-month period beginning on August 15 of the years indicated below, in each
case together with accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption
date.

</TABLE>
SELECTION AND NOTICE
If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, selection of
Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee on a pro rata basis, by lot or
by such other method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate provided that any
such method is not prohibited by the rules of any securities exchange on which
the Notes are at that time listed or quoted. Notes may be redeemed in part in
multiples of $1,000 only. Notice of redemption shall be mailed to each Holder of
Notes to be redeemed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days
before the redemption date at such Holder's last address as then shown upon the
Note Register. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of
redemption that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon
cancellation of the original Note. On and after the redemption date, interest
will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.
CERTAIN COVENANTS
The Indenture contains, among others, the following covenants:
CHANGE OF CONTROL
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes will have
the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000
or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder's Notes pursuant to the offer
described below (the "Change of Control Offer") at a purchase price in cash
equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to the date of purchase (the "Change of Control Payment").
The Indenture will provide that, prior to complying with the provisions of
this covenant, but in any event within 30 days following a Change of Control,
the Company will to the extent required either (i) repay all outstanding Senior
Indebtedness or (ii) obtain the requisite consents, if any, under all agreements
governing outstanding Senior Indebtedness to permit the repurchase of Notes
required by this covenant. The failure to obtain any such consents will not
relieve the Company of its obligation to repurchase the Notes pursuant to a
Change of Control Offer.
Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a
notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute
the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes pursuant to the
procedures required by the Indenture and this covenant and described in such
notice. The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and
regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. On or prior to the purchase date for
such Change of Control Offer, the Company will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept
for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Trustee an amount equal to the
Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so
tendered and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so
accepted together with an Officer's Certificate stating the aggregate principal
amount of the Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Company. The
Trustee will promptly make available to each Holder of the Notes so tendered the
Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly
authenticate
79
<PAGE>
and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note
equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered,
if any; PROVIDED that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $1,000
or an integral multiple thereof.
In the event that, pursuant to any Change of Control Offer, there are
properly tendered and accepted for payment by the Company Notes representing 80%
or more of the Notes outstanding at the commencement of such Change of Control
Offer, then the Company shall have the right, at its option, to redeem all, but
not less than all, of the outstanding Notes not tendered pursuant to such Change
of Control Offer at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount
thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Any
such redemption shall be affected in the same manner as described under "--
Optional Redemption" above.
The Change of Control provisions described above will be applicable whether
or not any other provisions of the Indenture are applicable. Except as described
above with respect to a Change of Control, the Indenture does not contain
provisions that permit the Holders of the Notes to require the Company to
repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of an acquisition or takeover.
If a Change of Control were to occur, there can be no assurance that the
Company would have sufficient funds available to repay all outstanding Senior
Indebtedness then required to be repaid (or otherwise obtain any consent under
outstanding Senior Indebtedness necessary to permit the repurchase of the Notes)
and pay the purchase price for all the Notes tendered by the holders thereof.
See "Risk Factors -- Possible Inability to Repurchase Notes Upon a Change of
Control."
LIMITATIONS ON RESTRICTED PAYMENTS
The Indenture will provide that the Company will not, and will not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: (i) declare or pay any
dividend or make any other payment or distribution (including, without
limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving
the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (other than cash in lieu of
fractional shares)) on account of any Equity Interests of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries (other than (x) dividends or distributions payable in Equity
Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company and (y) in the case of
a Subsidiary, dividends or distributions payable to the Company or any Wholly
Owned Subsidiary of the Company or pro rata dividends or distributions); (ii)
purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Equity Interests
of the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate of the Company (other than
any such Equity Interests owned by the Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of
the Company and joint venture interests evidencing ownership interests in
Permitted Joint Ventures); and (iii) make any principal payment on, or purchase,
redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness that
by its terms is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, except in
accordance with the scheduled mandatory redemption or payment provisions set
forth in the original documentation governing such Indebtedness (but not
pursuant to any mandatory offer to repurchase upon the occurrence of any events)
(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii)
above being collectively referred to as "Restricted Payments"), unless:
(a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred under the Notes
or the Indenture and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof;
(b) the Company would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after
giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made
at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted
to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Pro Forma
Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant
entitled "Limitations on Incurrence of Indebtedness"; and
(c) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate of all other
Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Subsidiaries or other
Affiliates after the date of the Indenture (excluding Restricted Payments
permitted by clauses (i), (ii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of the next succeeding
paragraph but including Restricted Payments permitted by clause (iii) of the
next succeeding paragraph), is less than the sum of (i) 50% of the
Consolidated Net Income of the
80
<PAGE>
Company for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning
of the first fiscal quarter commencing after the date of the Indenture to
the end of the Company's most recently ended fiscal quarter for which
internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted
Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit,
minus 100% of such deficit), PLUS (ii) 100% of the aggregate net cash
proceeds, including the fair market value of property other than cash (as
determined in good faith by the Board), received by the Company from the
issuance or sale other than to a subsidiary of the Company since the date of
the Indenture of Equity Interests other than Disqualified Capital Stock of
the Company or of debt securities or Disqualified Stock of the Company that
have been converted into such Equity Interests (other than Disqualified
Stock) PLUS (iii) $5.0 million.
The foregoing provision will not be violated by the payment of any dividend
within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at such date of
declaration such payment would have complied with the provisions of the
Indenture. In addition notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of
Default or Default shall have occurred or be continuing or would occur as a
consequence thereof, the Company and any Subsidiary may (i) purchase, redeem, or
otherwise acquire or retire for value any Equity Interests of the Company in
exchange for, or out of the net proceeds of, the substantially concurrent sale
(other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of other Equity Interests of the
Company (other than Disqualified Stock); PROVIDED that the amount of any such
net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such purchase, redemption or other
acquisition or retirement shall be excluded from clause (c)(ii) of the preceding
paragraph; (ii) defease, redeem or repurchase subordinated Indebtedness with the
net proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness or of or
in exchange for the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of
the Company) of Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock);
PROVIDED that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any
such purchase, redemption, repurchase, retirement or other acquisitions shall be
excluded from clause (c)(ii) of the preceding paragraph; (iii) redeem or
repurchase any Equity Interests of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company
held by any officers, directors or employees of the Company (or any of its
Subsidiaries) whose employment has been terminated or who have died or become
disabled, so long as the aggregate amount of payments for all such redemptions
or repurchases in any fiscal year do not exceed $5.0 million; (iv) pay scheduled
dividends on or redeem any preferred stock issued by a Subsidiary of the Company
permitted to be created or issued pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture
described under "-- Limitations on Incurrence of Indebtedness;" (v) pay the
Dividend to be declared prior to the Effective Time to the Paracelsus
Shareholder and (vi) redeem or repurchase Common Stock from holders thereof who
beneficially own in the aggregate less than 1% of the outstanding Common Stock
(other than officers, directors or employees of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries whose Equity Interests are redeemed or repurchased in accordance
with clause (iii) of this paragraph) within two years from the date of the
Indenture so long as the aggregate amount of payments for all such redemptions
or repurchases in such period do not exceed $1 million. Any payment made
pursuant to clause (iii) of this paragraph shall be a Restricted Payment for
purposes of calculating aggregate Restricted Payments pursuant to clause (c) of
the preceding paragraph.
Not later than the date of making any Restricted Payment, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that such Restricted
Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations
required by the covenant "Limitations on Restricted Payments" were computed,
which calculations shall be based upon the Company's latest available financial
statements.
LIMITATIONS ON INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS
The Indenture will provide that the Company will not, and will not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue,
assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable with respect
to (collectively, "incur") any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt); PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Company may incur Indebtedness if, at the time such
Indebtedness is incurred and after giving effect thereto and the application of
the proceeds therefor, the Company's
81
<PAGE>
Pro Forma Coverage Ratio for the Company's most recently ended four fiscal
quarters for which financial statements are available immediately preceding the
date on which such Indebtedness is incurred would not be less than (x) 2.0 to 1

(and the commitments) thereunder pursuant to the covenant entitled
"Limitations on Dispositions of Assets";
(ii) Capital Lease Obligations in an aggregate principal amount not to
exceed 10% of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a

Limitations on Incurrence of Indebtedness");
(iii) the incurrence by the Company and its Subsidiaries of Existing
Indebtedness;
(iv) Indebtedness evidenced by letters of credit issued in the ordinary

clauses (vii) and (viii) of this paragraph, (d) the Shareholder Subordinated
Note or (e) any Indebtedness that was incurred in compliance with the Pro
Forma Coverage Ratio test contained in the preceding paragraph;
(xii) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of
intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and any of its

subordinate to the payment in full of the Notes and (b)(1) any subsequent
issuance or transfer (other than for security purposes) of Equity Interests
that result in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the
Company or a Subsidiary of the Company and (2) any sale or other transfer of
any such Indebtedness (including for security purposes) to a Person that is
neither the Company nor a Subsidiary shall be deemed in each case to
constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such
Subsidiary, as the case may be; and
(xiii) the incurrence by the Company of Indebtedness not otherwise
permitted to be incurred by any other clause of this paragraph in an

LIMITATIONS ON LIENS
The Indenture will provide that the Company will not, and will not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or
suffer to exist any Lien, other than Permitted Liens, on any property or asset
now owned or hereafter acquired, or on any income or profits therefrom or assign
or convey any right to receive income therefrom, to secure any Indebtedness that
is PARI PASSU with or subordinate in right of payment to the Notes, unless the
Notes are either (i) secured by a Lien on such property, assets, income or
profits that is senior in priority to the Lien securing such other Indebtedness,
if such other Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or
(ii) equally and ratably secured by a Lien on such property, assets, income or
profits with the Lien securing such other Indebtedness, if such other
Indebtedness is PARI PASSU in right of payment to the Notes.
LIMITATIONS ON DISPOSITIONS OF ASSETS.
Subject to the "Limitations on Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets"
covenant discussed below, the Company may not, and may not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any assets (including by
way of sale and leaseback), other than in the ordinary course of business or the
sale of accounts receivable in connection with a receivables financing that is
not required under GAAP to be booked as a liability on the balance sheet of the
Company or its Subsidiaries, or all or substantially all of the Capital Stock of
any Subsidiary directly or indirectly owned by the Company in each case whether
in a single transaction or a series of related transactions that have an
aggregate fair market value in excess of $15.0 million or for net proceeds in
excess of $15 million (an "Asset Sale") unless the Net Proceeds from such Asset
Sale are applied in accordance with the following provisions. Within 365 days
after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company may apply
such Net Proceeds, at its option, (a) to permanently reduce Indebtedness (and,
in the case of revolving Indebtedness, to permanently reduce the commitments)
under the New Credit Facility or to reduce other Senior Indebtedness of the
Company, (b) to an investment in a Permitted Business or a controlling interest
in a person that owns a Permitted Business or the making of a capital
expenditure or to acquire other tangible assets, in each case, engaged or used
in a Permitted Business or any Permitted Joint Venture. Pending the final
application of any such Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce
revolving Indebtedness under the New Credit Facility (or any renewal, extension,
refinancing or refunding thereof) or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any
manner that is not prohibited by the Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from Asset
Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the preceding sentence of
this paragraph will be deemed to constitute "Excess Proceeds." When the
aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, the Company will be
required to make an offer to all Holders of Notes (an "Asset Sale Offer") to
purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and, on a pro rata basis, any
other Indebtedness requiring to be so repurchased (including any Existing Senior
Subordinated Notes that may be outstanding) that may be purchased out of the
Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of
purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the
extent that the aggregate amount of Notes (and, if applicable, any Existing
Senior Subordinated Notes that may be outstanding) tendered pursuant to an Asset
Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining
Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes. Upon completion of such Asset
Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.
Notwithstanding the foregoing (a) a transfer of assets by the Company or a
Subsidiary, (b) any issuance of Equity Interests by a Subsidiary to the Company
or another Subsidiary of the Company and (c) any Restricted Payment permitted by
the covenant described under "Limitations on Restricted Payments" above, shall
not be deemed to be an Asset Sale.
LIMITATIONS ON DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING
SUBSIDIARIES
The Indenture will provide that the Company will not, and will not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or
suffer to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the
ability of any Subsidiary to (i)(a) pay dividends or make any other
83
<PAGE>
distributions to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (1) on its Capital Stock
or (2) with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by,
its profits, or (b) pay any indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries; (ii) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries; (iii) transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries; or (iv) Guarantee any loans or advances to the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, except for such encumbrances or restrictions
existing under or by reasons of:
(a) Existing Indebtedness, as in effect on the date of the Indenture;
(b) the New Credit Facility, as in effect on the date of the Indenture,
and any amendments, modifications, restatements, extensions, renewals,
increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof,
PROVIDED that such amendments, modifications, restatements, extensions,
renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings
are not materially more restrictive in the aggregate than those contained in
the New Credit Facility, as in effect on the date of the Indenture;
(c) the Indenture and the Notes;
(d) applicable law;
(e) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person
acquired by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as in effect at the time
of acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness was incurred in
connection with, or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance
or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets
of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the
Person, so acquired, PROVIDED that, in the case of Indebtedness, such
Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of the Indenture to be incurred;
(f) by reason of customary non-assignment provisions in leases entered
into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices;
(g) restrictions contained in security agreements relating to Purchase
Money Indebtedness to the extent such restrictions restrict the transfer of
property subject to such security agreement;
(h) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, PROVIDED that the restrictions
contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing
Indebtedness are no more restrictive than those contained in the agreements
governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;
(i) any Permitted Joint Venture, PROVIDED that such restrictions apply
only to the assets of such Permitted Joint Venture; or
(j) any agreement which has been entered into for the sale or
disposition of all of the assets or capital stock of a Subsidiary; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that with respect to this clause (j), such encumbrances or
restrictions shall exist (A) only with respect to the Subsidiary being sold
or disposed of and (B) only for a period of six months following the
execution of such agreement.
LIMITATIONS ON MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS
The Indenture will provide that the Company may not consolidate or merge
with or into (whether or not the Company is the surviving entity), or sell,
assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all
of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to another
Person unless (i) the Company is the survivor or the Person formed by or
surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to
which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition
shall have been made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of
the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (ii) the
Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than
the Company) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease,
conveyance or other disposition will have been made assumes all the obligations
of the Company under the Notes and the Indenture pursuant to a supplemental
indenture
84
<PAGE>
in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; (iii) immediately after such
transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (iv) the Company or the
Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger, or to which such
sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have
been made will, at the time of such transaction after giving pro forma effect
thereto as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable
four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional
indebtedness pursuant to the Pro Forma Coverage Ratio test set forth in the
first paragraph of the covenant entitled "Limitations on Incurrence of
Indebtedness." Notwithstanding the foregoing, clause (iv) shall not prohibit a
transaction, the principal purpose and effect of which is (as determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and evidenced by a resolution
thereof) to change the state of incorporation of the Company, and such
transaction does not have as one of its purposes the evasion of the restrictions
of this covenant.
LIMITATIONS ON TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Indenture will provide that the Company will not, and will not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any
property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any contract, agreement,
understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any
Affiliate (each of the foregoing, an "Affiliate Transaction"), unless (i) such
Affiliate Transaction is on terms that in the aggregate are no less favorable to
the Company or such Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a
comparable transaction by the Company or such Subsidiary with an unrelated
Person and (ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee (a) with respect to any
Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving
aggregate consideration in excess of $1.0 million, a resolution of the Board of
Directors set forth in an Officers' Certificate certifying that such Affiliate
Transaction complies with clause (i) above and that such Affiliate Transaction
has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of
Directors and (b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related
Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $5
million, the Board of Directors shall have obtained an opinion from an
investment banking firm of national standing to the effect that such Affiliate
Transaction is fair to the Company or such Subsidiary from a financial point of
view; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) employment contracts, "know-how" agreements,
compensation arrangements and loans to employees, in each case in the form
existing as of the date of the Indenture or representing a continuation,
extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement thereof on terms no less
favorable to the Company than those contained in such contracts, agreements,
arrangements or loans in the form existing as of the date of the Indenture, (ii)
transactions between or among the Company, its Subsidiaries and/or Permitted
Joint Ventures, (iii) the making of Physician Support Obligations, (iv) each
Merger Related Agreement, in each case in the form existing as of the date of
the Indenture or representing a continuation, extension, renewal, refinancing or
replacement thereof on terms no less favorable to the Company than those
contained in such Merger Related Agreement in the form existing as of the date
of the Indenture and (v) transactions permitted by the provisions of the
Indenture described above under the covenant "-- Limitations on Restricted
Payments," in each case, shall not be deemed Affiliate Transactions.
LIMITATIONS ON OTHER SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS
The Indenture will provide that the Company will not incur, create, issue,
assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable for any Indebtedness that is both
subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness and senior
in right of payment to the Notes.
LIMITATION ON LINE OF BUSINESS
The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, engage in any
business other than a Permitted Business.
REPORTS
The Indenture will provide that, whether or not required by the rules and
the regulations of the Commission, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the
Company will furnish to the Holders of Notes (i) all quarterly and annual
financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing
85
<PAGE>
with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file
such Forms, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" that describes the financial condition and
results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and, with respect to
the annual information only, a report thereon by the Company's certified,
independent accountants and (ii) all current reports that would be required to
be filed with the Commission on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file
such reports.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
The Indenture will provide that each of the following constitutes an Event
of Default:
(i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes
(whether or not prohibited by the subordination provisions of the
Indenture);
(ii) default in payment when due of principal or premium, if any, on the
Notes at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, including pursuant to a
Change of Control Offer or an Asset Sale Offer (whether or not prohibited by
the subordination provisions of the Indenture);
(iii) failure to perform or comply with any other covenant or agreement
of the Company under the Indenture or the Notes continued for 60 days after
written notice to the Company by the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes;
(iv) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which
there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any
Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
(or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries) whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is
created after the date of the Indenture, which default results in the
acceleration of the maturity of such Indebtedness having an outstanding
principal amount of at least $15.0 million, or a failure to pay such
Indebtedness having an outstanding principal amount of at least $15.0
million at its stated maturity, provided that such acceleration or failure
to pay is not cured within 10 days after such acceleration or failure to
pay;
(v) failure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to pay final
non-appealable judgments (to the extent not covered by insurance and as to
which the insurer has not acknowledged coverage in writing) aggregating in
excess of $15.0 million which are not stayed within 60 days after their
entry; and
(vi) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the
Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries.
Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the
Trustee in case an Event of Default (as defined) shall occur and be continuing,
the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers
under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless
such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity. Subject to
such provisions for the indemnification of the Trustee, the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will have the
right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on
the Trustee, PROVIDED that the Trustee shall not determine that the action so
directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such
direction.
If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Clause
(vi) above) shall occur and be continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of
at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may
accelerate the maturity of all Notes; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that after such
acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration, the Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes may, under
certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration if all Events of
Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal, have been cured or
waived as provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default specified in Clause
(vi)
86
<PAGE>
above occurs, the Outstanding Notes will IPSO FACTO become immediately due and
payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder. For information as to waiver of defaults, see "-- Modification and
Waiver."
No Holder of any Note will have any right to order or direct the Trustee to
institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy
thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee
written notice of a continuing Event of Default (as defined) and unless also the
Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes
shall have made written request, and offered reasonable indemnity, to the
Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and the Trustee shall not have
received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have
failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days. However, such limitations do
not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder of a Note for enforcement of payment
of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on such Note on or after
the respective due dates expressed in such Note.
The Company will be required to furnish to the Trustee quarterly a statement
as to the performance by the Company of certain of its obligations under the
Indenture and as to any default in such performance.
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE
The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have all of its
obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes ("Legal
Defeasance") except for (i) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to
receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below, (ii)
the Company's obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary
Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the
maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments
held in trust, (iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the
Trustee, and the Company's obligations in connection therewith and (iv) the
Legal Defeasance provisions of the Indenture. In addition, the Company may, at
its option and at any time, elect to have the obligations of the Company
released with respect to certain covenants that are described in the Indenture
and the subordination provisions of the Indenture ("Covenant Defeasance") and
thereafter any omission to comply with such obligation shall not constitute a
Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. In the event Covenant
Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy,
receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) described under "-- Events
of Default and Remedies" will no longer constitute an Event of Default with
respect to the Notes.
In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, (i) the
Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of
the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in
the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants,
to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Notes
on the stated maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be,
and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or
to a particular redemption date; (ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming
that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the
Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there
has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to
the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm, that
the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for
federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be
subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the
same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not
occurred; (iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of
the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income
tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to
federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times
as would have
87
<PAGE>
been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; (iv) no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such
deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing
of funds to be applied to such deposit) or insofar as certain Events of Default
specified in the Indenture are concerned, at any time in the period ending on
the 91st day after the date of deposit; (v) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default
under any material agreement or instrument (other than the Indenture) to which
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries is bound; (vi) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such deposit shall not cause the Trustee
or the trust so created to be subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940; and
(vii) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an
opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for
relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied
with.
MODIFICATION AND WAIVER
Modifications and amendments of the Indenture may be made by the Company and
the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such modification or
amendment may, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note
affected thereby, (i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any
installment of interest on, any Note, (ii) reduce the principal amount of, (or
the premium) or interest on, any Note, (iii) change the place or currency of
payment of principal of (or premium), or interest on, any Note, (iv) impair the
right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to
any Note, (v) reduce the above-stated percentage of Outstanding Notes necessary
to modify or amend the Indenture, (vi) reduce the percentage of aggregate
principal amount of Outstanding Notes necessary for waiver of compliance with
certain provisions of the Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults, (vii)
modify any provisions of the Indenture relating to the modification and
amendment of the Indenture or the waiver of past defaults or covenants, except
as otherwise specified, or (viii) following the mailing of any Change of Control
Offer or Asset Sale Offer, modify the terms of such Change of Control Offer or
Asset Sale Offer for the Notes required under the "Change of Control" and
"Limitations on Dispositions of Assets" covenants contained in the Indenture in
a manner materially adverse to the Holders thereof.
The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Notes, on behalf of all Holders of Notes, may waive compliance by the Company
with certain restrictive provisions of the Indenture. Subject to certain rights
of the Trustee, as provided in the Indenture, the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of all Holders of
Notes, may waive any past default under the Indenture, except a default in the
payment of principal, premium or interest or a default arising from failure to
purchase any Note tendered pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or an Asset
Sale Offer.
GOVERNING LAW
The Indenture and the Notes will be governed by the laws of the State of New
York.
THE TRUSTEE
The Indenture provides that, except during the continuance of an Event of
Default, the Trustee will perform only such duties as are specifically set forth
in the Indenture. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Trustee will
exercise such rights and powers vested in it under the Indenture and use the
same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise
under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.
The Indenture and provisions of the Trust Indenture Act incorporated by
reference therein contain limitations on the rights of the Trustee, should it
become a creditor of the Company, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases
or to realize on certain property received by it in respect of any such claim as
security or otherwise. The Trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions
with the Company or any Affiliate, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if it acquires any
conflicting interest (as defined in the Indenture or in the Trust Indenture
Act), it must eliminate such conflict or resign.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW CREDIT FACILITY
In connection with the Merger and the Credit Facility Refinancing, the
Company has received commitments for the New Credit Facility with Bank of
America NT&SA, as Administrative Agent, Banque Paribas, as Documentation Agent,
NationsBank, as Managing Agent, Credit Lyonnais New York branch, as Co-Agent,
Toronto-Dominion Bank, as Co-Agent, and a syndicate of other lenders and intends
to consummate the Credit Facility Refinancing 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 Merger is not conditioned upon the closing of the Credit
Facility Refinancing. See "Risk Factors -- Significant Leverage."
The Company currently intends to refinance, through borrowings under the New
Credit Facility, all amounts outstanding under the Existing Paracelsus Credit
Facility, dated as of December 8, 1995, by and among the Company, Bank of
America NT&SA, as Lead Agent, NationsBank, as Co-Agent, and the other banks
named therein. At June 30, 1996, the balance outstanding under the Existing
Paracelsus Credit Facility was approximately $198.0 million.
The Company's obligations under the New Credit Facility would constitute
Senior Indebtedness with respect to the Notes and any other subordinated debt of
the Company outstanding at any time after the consummation of the Credit
Facility Refinancing. In addition, borrowings under the New Credit Facility
would be secured by a first priority lien on the capital stock of most of the
Company's significant subsidiaries. It would have priority as to such collateral
over the Notes. To the extent the New Credit Facility will involve commitments
for future loans, such commitments may be conditioned on continued compliance by
the Company with the terms of the loan agreement and the absence of any material
adverse change in the Company's business. 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 ratios tests.

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

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

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
the affiliate $147,000, $153,000 and $89,000 for other services during 1993,
1994 and 1995, respectively.

all employees. Eligible employees may contribute up to 20% of pretax
compensation limited to an annual maximum in accordance with the Internal
Revenue Code. The Company will match $.50 for each $1.00 of employee

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.

10. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS (CONTINUED)
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.
F-19
<PAGE>
PARACELSUS HEALTHCARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
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:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1994 1995
------------------------------ ------------------------------
CARRYING FAIR CARRYING FAIR
AMOUNT VALUE AMOUNT VALUE
-------------- -------------- -------------- --------------
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Cash and cash equivalents....................... $ 1,452,000 $ 1,452,000 $ 2,949,000 $ 2,949,000
Long-term debt:
9.875% senior subordinated notes.............. 75,000,000 73,626,000 75,000,000 79,440,000
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.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Board of Directors
Davis Hospital and Medical Center
Pioneer Valley Hospital and
Santa Rosa Medical Center
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Davis Hospital and
Medical Center, Pioneer Valley Hospital and Santa Rosa Medical Center (the
"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
their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

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.

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.
3. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

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
over the initial lease term, at the date of acquisition of the Hospital by HTI.
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.

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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
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
<PAGE>
CHAMPION HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
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
F-46

CHAMPION HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
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.

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

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,
dated May 27, 1992 ("Plan No. 2"), Employee Stock Option Plan No. 3, dated
September 1992 ("Plan No. 3"), Senior Executive Stock Option Plan No. 4, dated

No. 5, which authorized 144,500 shares of common stock for issuance under the
Plan.
As a result of the Company's merger with AmeriHealth, Inc. on December 6,
1994, all AmeriHealth options then outstanding became fully vested. At December
31, 1994, 244,017 options granted to certain former AmeriHealth directors,
officers and key employees were outstanding and fully vested.
The Plans are presently administered by the Option and Compensation
Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors. Officers, other key
employees and, under limited circumstances, members of the Board of Directors
are eligible to participate in Plan No. 1. Officers and executive personnel of
the Company are eligible to participate in Plans No. 2 through 5. The Directors'
Plan is available to members of the Board of Directors who are not members of
management or elected as representatives of the Company's preferred stockholders
pursuant to a voting agreement.
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
value of the common stock on the date of grant. The Plans provide that no stock
option shall be exercisable later than 10 years and 1 day from the date of
grant.
The following table summarizes the activity under these stock option plans
and any special grants authorized by the Board of Directors:

WARRANTS
As of December 31, 1995, the Company had issued and outstanding a total of
2,858,541 warrants to purchase 3,244,412 shares of common stock at exercise
prices ranging from $0.01 per share to $9.00 per share. Such warrants expire
December 31, 1997, through December 31, 2003. Pursuant to the Recapitalization
approved by the shareholders on February 12, 1996, the exercise prices on
certain of the warrants were reduced until May 13, 1996, after which the
exercise prices revert to their prior amounts (see Recapitalization above).

The current deferred tax asset was included in prepaid expenses and other
current assets in 1995 and 1994. The noncurrent deferred tax liability in 1994
and 1995 was included in other long-term liabilities.
At December 31, 1995, the Company had net operating losses and tax credit
carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $18,587,000 and $388,000,
respectively, which will expire in years 1999 through 2009. The tax credit
carryforwards consist of several business credits and alternative minimum tax
("AMT") credits of approximately $68,000 and $320,000, respectively.
For federal income tax purposes, due to certain changes in ownership of
AmeriHealth, Inc., its net operating loss carryforward of $7,727,000 (included
in the Company's net operating loss carryforward) may be limited to
approximately $1,900,000 per year under the Internal Revenue Service Code. If
the available amount is not used to reduce taxes in any year, the unused amount
increases the allowable limit in subsequent years. These loss carryforwards
expire in years 1999 through 2008. AmeriHealth, Inc. also has General Business
Credit and AMT Credit carryforwards of approximately $68,000 and $100,000,
respectively, which may also be limited because of the change in ownership.

LITIGATION. The Company is from time to time subject to claims and suits
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. At December 31, 1994 and 1995, the Company had
accrued approximately $2,681,000 and $3,171,000, respectively, related to such
claims. 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.

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.

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.

September 30, 1995 and the related statements of income and change in owner's
equity and cash flows for the period from January 1, 1995 through September 30,
1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Hospital's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Jordan Valley Hospital as of

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
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.
SUPPLIES INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at cost, determined principally by the first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method, and are not in excess of market value.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)
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 8 to 40 years.
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. The Hospital has recorded current and
deferred income tax expense for the period subsequent to the acquisition by HTI,
determined as if it were filing a separate tax return.

The Hospital obtained its primary professional liability insurance through
premiums paid to Columbia/HCA totaling approximately $249,000 for the period
from January 1, 1995 through September 30, 1995. In addition, the Hospital has
limited its liability through the purchase of umbrella coverage from third-party
insurers.
Columbia/HCA provided certain management services in the normal course of
business to the Hospital. For 1995, the expenses allocated to the Hospital were
approximately $101,000.
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENT:
In November 1995, CHC -- Salt Lake City, Inc. entered into a definitive
agreement with Columbia/HCA to acquire the Hospital 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 additional
cash consideration of approximately $7,500,000. The transaction is subject to
various third-party approvals, including that of the Federal Trade Commission.

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

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,

respectively.
Investments consisted of commercial paper, money market instruments, U.S.
Government obligations, marketable equity securities and high grade corporate
bonds. The market values of investment were determined based on quoted market
rates.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT:
Long-term debt, which included capital leases and amounts due to HCHSC, at
May 31, 1994 and April 13, 1995, were as follows:
<TABLE>

--------- ---------
--------- ---------
</TABLE>
The carrying amounts of the variable rate, long-term debt approximate their
fair values. The fair values of the fixed rate, long-term debt and capital lease
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:

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
subject at March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995.
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")
F-95

CHAMPION HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENT (CONTINUED)
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.

NOTES TO PARACELSUS AND CHAMPION UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED COMBINING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(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 13). 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 10) 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.

(9) For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings
include income before fixed charges, provision for Federal and state income
taxes and minority interests. Fixed charges consist of interest expense,
including amortization of financing costs and the interest component of
capitalized leases and that portion of operating lease expense which
management believes is representative of the interest component of rental
expenses. For the six months ended March 31, 1995, Champion pro forma
earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges by $639,000. For the six
months ended March 31, 1996, after giving effect to the Merger, combined
pro forma earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges by $9,375,000.

(12) 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 10)).
(13) 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
price data):

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 September 30, 1995 and the
Columbia Hospitals' historical results of operations for the year ended December
31, 1995. The Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Statements 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 Paracelsus Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining Balance Sheet
includes the historical balance sheets 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):

include income before fixed charges, provision for Federal and state income
taxes and minority interests. Fixed charges consist of interest expense,
including amortization of financing costs and the interest component of
capitalized leases and that portion of operating lease expense which
management believes is representative of the interest component of rental
expenses. Historical and pro forma earnings were insufficient to cover fixed
charges by $11,219,000 and $8,625,000, respectively, for the six months
ended March 31, 1996.

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.
PF-21
<PAGE>
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

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.
(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

CONDENSED COMBINING STATEMENTS OF INCOME (CONTINUED)
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:

(15)For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings
include income before fixed charges, provision for Federal and state income
taxes and minority interests. Fixed charges consist of interest expense,
including amortization of financing costs and the interest component of
capitalized leases and that portion of operating lease expense which
management believes is representative of the interest component of rental
expenses. Historical and pro forma earnings were inadequate to cover fixed
charges by $768,000 and $639,000, respectively, for the six months ended
March 31, 1995.
