ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Introduction
- ------------
Medical Technology Systems, Inc.(TM), a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), was incorporated in March 1984. The Company is a holding company
that historically operated through a number of separate subsidiaries, including
MTS Packaging Systems, Inc.(TM) ("MTS Packaging"), Medical Technology
Laboratories, Inc. ("MTL") and LifeServ Technologies, Inc.(TM) ("LifeServ").
MTS Packaging primarily manufactures and sells disposable medication punch
cards, packaging equipment and allied ancillary products throughout the United
States. Its customers are predominantly pharmacies that supply nursing homes and
assisted living facilities with prescription medications for their patients. MTS
Packaging manufactures its proprietary disposable punch cards and packaging
equipment in its own facilities. This manufacturing process integrated machinery
for manufacturing the disposable medication punch cards. The disposable
medication punch cards and packaging equipment are designed to provide a cost
effective method for pharmacies to dispense medications. The Company's
medication dispensing systems and products provide innovative methods for
dispensing medications in disposable packages.
MTL was formed as a result of the acquisition and combination of Clearwater
Medical Services and Clinical Diagnostic Centers during fiscal year 1992. MTL
conducts analytical services for testing of blood, tissue and other body fluids
for hospitals, physicians and other health care providers in Florida. On March
17, 1995, MTL purchased the rights and interests in certain clinical laboratory
services of Tampa Pathology Laboratory, including the right, title and interest
in the customer accounts associated with Tampa Pathology Laboratory and the
right to service and continue sales of clinical laboratory services to these
customers. In September 1998, MTL purchased certain assets of Community Clinical
Laboratories, Inc. ("CCL") including the right to service and continue sales of
clinical laboratory services to the customers of CCL. See Item 3 - Legal
Proceedings. The Company is discussing the possible sale of MTL with several
potential buyers. There can be no assurances a sale will be closed, however, the
Company has determined that the operations of MTL are not consistent with its
strategy of expanding its core business, and therefore, management has approved
a plan to dispose of MTL and is committed to either sell the business or abandon
it. The Company has treated the operations of MTL in fiscal 1999 as discontinued
operations.
<PAGE>
3
The Company acquired all of the Common Stock of Vangard Labs, Inc.
("Vangard") on June 1, 1992. Vangard suspended operations in January 1996.
Vangard previously packaged and sold oral solid unit-dose generic drugs to
hospitals and nursing home institutional pharmacies. The Company sold certain
assets of Vangard effective March 31, 1997, to an unrelated third party. The
terms of the agreement of sale provided for the payment to the Company of $3.1
million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities by the buyer. The $3.1
million received by the Company was used to reduce debt. See "Item 3. Legal
Proceedings".
On March 10, 1995, the Company established MTS Sales and Marketing, Inc.
("MTS Sales"). This subsidiary was established to provide administrative support
and sales and marketing services to the other subsidiaries. MTS Sales is
currently an inactive subsidiary.
On February 24, 1998, the Company formed LifeServ Technologies, Inc.
("LifeServ") for the purpose of holding and operating the Company's health care
information subsidiaries: Performance Pharmacy Systems, Inc. ("PPS"), Medication
Management Systems, Inc. ("MMS"), Medication Management Technologies, Inc.
("MMT"), Cart-Ware, Inc. ("Cart-Ware") and Systems Professionals, Inc. ("SPI").
In April 1998, the Company entered into a stock subscription agreement with
LifeServ whereby the Company made a capital contribution of all of the
outstanding capital stock of those subsidiaries to LifeServ. On May 27, 1999,
the assets of LifeServ were sold to AIMCare, Inc. ("AIMCare"). AIMCare assumed
the stated liabilities of LifeServ of approximately $5.0 million. The Company
has treated the operations of LifeServ in fiscal 1999 as discontinued operations
as a result of the sale of this subsidiary.
Segments
- --------
The continuing operations of the Company are composed of one operating
segment, Medication Packaging and Dispensing Systems. MTS Packaging and MTS
Sales are the only subsidiaries in this segment and are supported by corporate
personnel and services.
Continuing Operations
- ---------------------
Products and Services
---------------------
MTS Packaging manufactures proprietary medication dispensing systems and
related products for use by medication prescription service providers. These
systems utilize disposable medication punch cards and specialized machines that
automatically or semi-automatically assemble, fill and seal drugs into
medication punch cards representing a weekly or monthly supply of a patient's
medication.
MTS Packaging's machinery for dispensing medication in disposable packages
automatically places tablets or capsules (the amount of medication required by a
patient during one month) into a blistered punch card. The use of these cards
and machines provides a cost effective customized package at competitive prices.
The punch card medication dispensing system can provide tamper evident packaging
for products dispensed in the package.
The retail price of MTS Packaging's machinery ranges from $1,100 to
$120,000 depending upon the degree of automation and options requested by a
customer. The punch cards typically retail from $145 to $225 per 1,000 cards and
blisters, depending upon the size, design and volume of cards ordered by a
customer. To date, MTS Packaging has placed approximately 1,660 medication
dispensing systems with pharmacy clientele. MTS Packaging also sells
prescription labels and ancillary supplies designed to complement sales of
disposable medication punch cards. MTS Packaging had approximately $362,000 in
unshipped orders as of June 25, 1999.
Research and Development
------------------------
Research and development activities during the past three years have not
been significant and, therefore, have not been separately classified in the
financial statements. The Company has focused on the development of products
that it has been determined are technologically feasible.
Product Development
-------------------
The Company had several projects underway to develop new products during
its most recent fiscal year.
<PAGE>
4
MTS Packaging is presently developing:
o Medication dispensing systems that more fully automate its customers'
operation and increase the productivity of the pharmacy.
o A dispensing system for the packaging of unit dose medication for
hospitals.
o Multi-Dose punch card for the assisted living market.
o Proprietary automated dispensing system that will allow customers to
dispense medication in a variety of blister pack system formats.
Manufacturing Processes
-----------------------
MTS Packaging has developed integrated punch card manufacturing equipment
that will accomplish the various punch card manufacturing steps in a
single-line, automated process. The Company believes that its advanced
automation gives it certain speed, cost and flexibility advantages over
conventional punch card manufacturers. MTS Packaging's equipment produces
finished cards on a single in-line Flexographic press. This process takes the
place of approximately five different offset presses using conventional offset
printing methods. MTS Packaging's advanced automation provides a substantial
reduction in time compared to conventional punch card manufacturing systems. MTS
Packaging has two machines capable of producing punch cards in this manner. In
addition to the manufacturing of punch cards, MTS Packaging manufactures
machines that are used by its customers to fill punch cards with medication. The
majority of these machines are sold to customers; however, from time to time,
customers are provided or rented machines in conjunction with an agreement to
purchase certain quantities of punch cards over a specified period.
MTS Packaging uses automated fabrication equipment to produce its
medication packaging machinery. All essential components of the machines are
designed and manufactured by the Company without reliance on outside vendors.
MTS Packaging is dependent on a number of suppliers for the raw materials
essential in the production of its products. The Company believes that relations
are adequate with its existing vendors. However, there can be no assurance that
such relations will be adequate in the future or that shortages of any of these
raw materials will not arise, causing production delays. MTS Packaging believes
it is necessary to maintain an inventory of materials and finished products that
allows for customer orders to be shipped within the industry standard of 2-3
days. The inability to obtain raw materials on a timely basis and on acceptable
terms may have a material adverse effect on the future financial performance of
the Company.
As a result of the Company's financial condition, many of the suppliers of
raw materials and other goods and services to the Company's subsidiaries have
required that purchases be paid for in advance or on a COD basis. As a result,
the Company's ability to obtain raw materials and other goods and services is
substantially dependent upon the Company's cash flow from operations.
Markets and Customers
---------------------
MTS Packaging's products are sold throughout the United States,
primarily through its sales organization and independent sales representatives.
MTS Packaging also participates in trade shows and training seminars. Sales to
countries outside the U.S. represent less than ten percent (10%) of the total
revenue. Three customers comprise approximately forty-three percent (43%) of MTS
Packaging's annual revenue.
The primary customers for MTS Packaging's proprietary packaging machinery
and the related disposable punch cards, labels and ancillary supplies are
pharmacies that supply prescription medication to nursing homes. Such pharmacies
serve from 250 to 34,000 nursing home beds per location and many serve the
sub-acute, assisted living and the home health care markets as well.
<PAGE>

Competition
- -----------
The pharmacy customers of MTS Packaging supply prescribed medications to
nursing homes, which are the primary market for MTS Packaging's products. This
market is highly competitive. There are several competitors that have developed
machines that automate the packaging and sealing of solid medications into punch
cards. The Company believes that products developed by the Company's competitors
are not as efficient as the Company's systems because they are not as automated.
The Company's method of dispensing medication replaces more traditional
dispensing methods, such as prescription vials. The principal methods of
competition in supplying medication dispensing systems to prescription service
providers are product innovation, price, customization and product performance.
Many of the Company's competitors have been in business longer and have
substantially greater resources than the Company. There is no assurance that the
Company will be able to compete effectively with competitive methods of
dispensing medication or other punch card systems.
The Company's primary competitors for punch card dispensing systems are
Drug Package, Inc., PCI/Trans Aid and RX Systems, Inc. The Company believes that
its automated proprietary packaging machinery distinguishes MTS Packaging from
its competitors' less automated systems, which are capable of only filling and
sealing 100 disposable medication punch cards per hour. The Company's new
automated packaging machinery can fill and seal over 900 disposable medication
cards per hour. The Company believes that its production rates will meet the
needs of its customers who are consolidating and require higher productivity to
meet their growing market share.
Proprietary Technology
----------------------
The Siegel Family QTIP Trust (the "Trust") is the holder of certain patents
and other proprietary rights for the equipment and processes that MTS Packaging
uses and sells. The Trust is the assignee of all such proprietary and patent
rights used in the Company's business that were invented or developed by Harold
B. Siegel, the founder of the Company. The Trust and the Company are parties to
a license agreement whereby the Company is granted an exclusive and perpetual
license from the Trust to use the know-how and patent rights in the manufacture
and sale of the Company's medication dispensing systems. MTS Packaging is
heavily dependent upon the continued use of the proprietary rights associated
with these patents. The patents begin expiring in 2004 continuing through 2006.
The license agreements are co-extensive with the patents.
There are numerous patent applications and patent license agreements for
products that have been sold and that have been in development within MTS
Packaging, however, its business is not materially dependent upon the issuing or
its ownership of any one patent applied for or patent license agreements.
There is no assurance that any additional patents will be granted with
respect to the Company's medication dispensing or information systems and
products or that any patent issued, now or in the future, will provide
meaningful protection from competition.
Government Regulation
---------------------
Certain subsidiaries of the Company are subject to various federal, state
and local regulations with respect to their particular businesses. The Company
believes that it currently complies with these regulations.
MTS Packaging's products are governed by federal regulations concerning
components of packaging materials that are in contact with food. The Company has
obtained assurances from its vendors that the packaging materials used by MTS
Packaging are in conformity with such regulations. However, there is no
assurance that significant changes in the regulations applicable to MTS
Packaging's products will not occur in the foreseeable future. Any such changes
could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company cannot predict the extent to which its operations will be
effected under the laws and regulations described above or any new regulations
that may be adopted by regulatory agencies.
Discontinued Operations
- -----------------------
The Company operated two business segments in fiscal 1999 that management
determined to discontinue in the fourth quarter.
<PAGE>
6
LifeServ is a health care information technology company that provides
solutions for medication management and point-of-care electronic documentation
for hospitals and other health care facilities. The assets of LifeServ were sold
in May 1999 in exchange for the assumption of certain liabilities of
approximately $5.0 million.
MTL provides clinical laboratory testing services including analytical
tests of blood tissues and other bodily fluids. The Company is discussing the
possible sale of MTL with several potential buyers. In the event a sale does not
close, management has committed to a plan to attempt to sell the business to
other potential buyers or abandon the business.
Employees
- ---------
As of June 24, 1999, the Company employed 250 persons full time. None of
the Company's employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. The
Company considers its relationship with employees to be good.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company leases a 67,000 square foot plant consisting of office space
and air-conditioned manufacturing and warehousing space near the St.
Petersburg/Clearwater International Airport at 12920 Automobile Boulevard. The
Company's corporate administrative offices and the manufacturing facilities for
MTS Packaging Systems, Inc. ("MTS Packaging") are at this location. The lease
expires on April 15, 2002. The Company's current monthly lease payments are
approximately $22,000. The premises are generally suited for light manufacturing
and/or distribution. Currently the Company is operating at two-thirds of actual
manufacturing capacity.
MTS Packaging leases approximately 5,200 square feet at approximately
$2,500 per month for office and warehouse space at 21530 Drake Road, Cleveland,
Ohio. The lease expired on March 31, 1999. This space is used by the Ohio Label
business acquired by the Company in 1989. This business is now part of MTS
Packaging.
Medical Technology Laboratories, Inc. ("MTL") leases approximately 20,000
square feet at approximately $15,000 per month for its laboratory and general
administrative offices located at 1375 S. Fort Harrison Street, Clearwater,
Florida.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is involved in certain claims and legal actions arising in the
ordinary course of business. There can be no assurances that these matters will
be resolved on terms acceptable to the Company. In the opinion of management,
based upon advice of counsel and consideration of all facts available at this
time, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse
effect on the financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the
Company.
On November 19, 1998, Medical Technology Laboratories, Inc. ("MTL")
received a refund request in the amount of $1.8 million from Medicare Program
Safeguards ("MPS") and $104,000 from the State of Florida Agency for Health Care
Administration ("AHCA"). The requests followed an onsite review in May 1997, by
federal and state agencies, of MTL's Medicare and Medicaid billing practices in
1996. MTL has conducted an internal review of the billing procedures, records
and services in question and disputes MPS's findings and determination. On
December 17, 1998, MTL responded to the MPS determination and subsequently
received a response from MPS in which MPS informed MTL that recoupment of the
refund amount would be stayed while MPS reviewed MTL's response. On June 22,
1999, the Company was informed by MPS that the recoupment of the refund had been
suspended pending a decision from the Central Office of the Health Care
Financing Administration (HCFA), regarding certain matters related to the refund
request. Nevertheless, in order to preserve its rights, the Company requested a
hearing on the matter. The hearing is not expected to take place until a final
decision is reached by HCFA. Although MTL believes that MPS's determination and
the request for refunds are without merit, there can be no assurance that this
matter will be resolved over the near term or that the ultimate outcome of the
matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition and results of operation.
<PAGE>
7
In September 1998, the Company, through its subsidiary MTL, entered into an
asset purchase agreement with Community Clinical Laboratories, Inc. ("CCL"), a
clinical laboratory that historically competed with MTL. The terms of the asset
purchase agreement provided for MTL to acquire certain assets including the
customer list and equipment of CCL in exchange for a contingent note payable of
$2,500,000. The terms of the note provide for repayment over five years based
upon 9% of cash collected from revenue generated by tests performed for
customers identified on the CCL customer list. Prior to MTL entering into the
asset purchase agreement, the operations of CCL had been suspended as a result
of the revoking of CCL's Medicare and Medicaid provider privileges by agencies
of both the State of Florida and the federal government. As part of MTL's due
diligence regarding the purchase of certain CCL's assets, MTL obtained
assurances from its legal counsel that MTL would not be liable for any
violations of state or federal health care laws that may have occurred prior to
MTL's acquisition of certain assets of CCL. In addition, MTL retained the
services of an outside consultant specializing in health care compliance for
clinical laboratories to review all of MTL's operations to ensure that MTL was
compliant with applicable health care laws and regulations. Also, MTL employs a
compliance officer to monitor the ongoing operations of the laboratory to ensure
continued compliance.
Reorganizations Under Chapter 11
- --------------------------------
On January 3, 1996, three of the Company's subsidiaries, MTS Packaging
Systems, Inc. ("MTS Packaging"), Medical Technology Laboratories, Inc. ("MTL")
and MTS Sales and Marketing, Inc. ("MTS Sales"), filed voluntary petitions for
relief under Chapter 11 in the Bankruptcy Court. On February 22, 1996, Vangard
Labs, Inc. ("Vangard") filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 in
the same jurisdiction. On July 10, 1997, Medication Management Technologies,
Inc. ("MMT") filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 in the same
jurisdiction.
On September 4, 1996, the Plans of Reorganization for MTS Packaging, MTL
and Vangard were confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court. The case of MTS Sales was
dismissed. On June 12, 1998, the Plan of Reorganization for MMT was confirmed by
the bankruptcy court.
Certain liabilities were compromised by creditors as part of the Plans for
Reorganization as follows:
Secured Claims: (Bank) - Each of the companies that filed petitions under
Chapter 11 were co-borrowers on bank notes, lines of credit, accrued interest
and other charges and expenses, in the amount of approximately $28.0 million,
that were combined and restructured into two separate promissory notes.
Plan Note I, in the stated principal amount of approximately $27.0 million,
provided for a portion of the principal amount, $15.0 million, to be due and
payable as follows:
a. Interest at the rate of 7.5% for a period of two years ending
September 1, 1998.
b. Installments of principal and interest at the rate of 7.5% payable
monthly for a period of ten years ending September 1, 2006. At which
time, the then outstanding principal amount is due and payable in
full. The monthly installments of principal and interest are
calculated based on the principal amount amortized in equal monthly
payments over twenty years.
Plan Note II, in the stated principal amount of $1,000,000 provided for
payment of $750,000 on or about the date of confirmation of the Plans of
Reorganization. The Company made the payment of $750,000 on or about September
5, 1996 and in accordance with the terms of Plan Note II, the stated principal
amount was deemed fully satisfied.
Plan Note I further provided that the net proceeds from the sale of Vangard
would be paid to the Bank. In addition, certain other mandatory prepayments of
the stated principal amount were required upon the occurrence of a capital
transaction in which any of the Company's subsidiaries are sold, as well as upon
the receipt of any proceeds resulting from certain causes of action commenced by
the Company. Plan Note I also provided that the full stated principal amount of
approximately $28.0 million would be due and payable upon the occurrence of
specified major events of default.
<PAGE>
8
Effective March 31, 1997, the stated principal amount of Plan Note I was
reduced to $15.0 million. Thereby, permanently removing any contingent amount
due including the additional $12.0 million principal amount, except for the
mandatory prepayments for any capital transactions.
Plan Note I contains certain financial covenants including prohibiting the
Company from exceeding a maximum consolidated intangible deficit, maintaining
various financial ratios and limits the amount of capital expenditures. In
addition, Plan Note I requires the bank's approval of the payment of dividends
and the borrowing of any additional amounts from other parties.
Unsecured Claims - The holders of trade and miscellaneous claims elected to
receive payment of their claims under several options provided for in the Plans
of Reorganization.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Overview
- --------
During fiscal 1999, the Company continued to implement its strategy of
expansion of its core business, MTS Packaging Systems, Inc. ("MTS Packaging").
In the fourth quarter, the Company adopted a plan to divest of the other two
business segments that it historically operated.
In May 1999, the Company sold its Health Care Information business,
LifeServ Technologies, Inc. ("LifeServ"). A gain of approximately $1,300,000 is
anticipated to be recognized on this transaction in the first quarter of fiscal
2000. In addition, the Company is discussing the sale of its clinical laboratory
business, Medical Technology Laboratories, Inc. ("MTL") with several potential
buyers. The Company anticipates that the disposal of MTL will result in a loss
and as a result has recorded a charge of $2,500,000 in fiscal 1999. Prior to the
end of fiscal 1999, management committed itself to a formal plan to dispose of
both LifeServ and MTL. As a result, the operations of both business segments
have been treated as discontinued for financial statement purposes for the
fourth quarter of fiscal year 1999.
Results of Continuing Operations
- --------------------------------
Fiscal Year 1999 Compared to Fiscal Year 1998
- ---------------------------------------------
Revenue
- -------
Net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 increased 22.2% to $15.0
million from $12.3 million the prior fiscal year. Revenue increased in fiscal
1999 primarily as a result of an increase in the amount of disposable punch
cards and packaging machines sold to existing customers. In addition, prices for
machines sold increased approximately 2% and prices for disposables decreased
approximately 1%. The Company anticipates that pricing on disposables could
continue to experience downward pressure as reimbursement amounts received by
customers from the end user of the products sold continue to be reduced. The
volume of disposable punch cards and machines is anticipated to continue to grow
as a result of consolidation of the Company's customer base and new business
development.
Cost of Sales and Services
- --------------------------
Cost of sales for the year ended March 31, 1999 increased 20.3% to $8.4
million from $6.9 million in the prior year. Cost of sales as a percentage of
sales decreased to 55.6% from 56.4%. The increase in cost of sales resulted from
increased revenue. The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of sales
resulted primarily from increased revenue that did not require increases in
certain fixed costs of operations. The decrease was partially offset by
increases in costs of raw material and labor.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG&A")
- -----------------------------------------------------
SG&A expenses for the year ended March 31, 1999 increased 16.2% to $4.3
million compared to $3.7 million the prior year. The increase resulted primarily
from increases in personnel and selling costs associated with the increase in
revenue.
Depreciation and Amortization
- -----------------------------
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 8.9% to $874,000 in fiscal
1999 from $959,000 the prior year. The decrease resulted from the fact that
certain assets became fully depreciated during fiscal 1999.
<PAGE>
12
Interest Expense
- ----------------
Interest expense increased 9.1% to $1.2 million in fiscal 1999 from $1.1
million in the prior year. The increase resulted primarily from additional
borrowing in fiscal 1999 to support working capital needs of discontinued
operations.
Income Taxes
- ------------
The Company realized an income tax benefit in fiscal 1998 as a result of an
income tax refund related to the amendment of its 1992 income tax return. The
Company recorded income tax expense of $125,000, which was offset by a benefit
of $125,000, included in discontinued operations.
Loss from Operations of Discontinued Operations
- -----------------------------------------------
The Company discontinued the operations of two business segments during
fiscal 1999. The operations of one discontinued business segment, the Health
Care Information Systems segment, resulted in a loss from discontinued
operations of $3.7 million in fiscal 1999 compared to a loss of $1.2 million the
prior year. The operations of the other discontinued business segment, the
Clinical Laboratory Services segment, resulted in a loss from discontinued
operations of $164,000 in fiscal 1999 compared to a profit of $460,000 the prior
year.
Gain on Forgiveness of Debt of Discontinued Operations
- ------------------------------------------------------
A plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy of a subsidiary
included in the Company's Health Care Information Systems business segment was
approved in fiscal 1999. The plan of reorganization provided for reductions of
the amounts owed to both secured and unsecured creditors. The reduction, less
certain expenses related to the reorganization, of $569,000 has been recognized
as an extraordinary gain included within discontinued operations.
Results of Discontinued Operations
- ----------------------------------
In May 1999, the Company sold its Health Care Information Systems business
segment, LifeServ. The Asset Acquisition Agreement provided, among other things,
for the buyer to receive substantially all the assets of LifeServ in
consideration of the assumption of certain stated liabilities of approximately
$5 million. During fiscal 1999, LifeServ had revenue of $5.2 million and costs
and expenses of $8.9 million resulting in a loss from discontinued operations of
$3.7 million. LifeServ's net revenue for fiscal year 1998 and 1997 were $4.3
million and $1.9 million respectively.
The Company is discussing the possible sale of MTL with several potential
buyers. In the event that a sale does not close, management has committed itself
to a plan to dispose of MTL either through a sale to another potential buyer or
abandon the business. During fiscal 1999, MTL had revenue of $14.0 million and
costs and expenses of $14.1 million resulting in a net loss from discontinued
operations of $164,000 during the year ended March 31, 1999. MTL's net revenue
for years 1998 and 1997 were $7.4 million and $6.1 million.
Loss on Disposal of Discontinued Operations
- -------------------------------------------
The Company has estimated the loss on disposal of its Clinical Laboratory
Services business to be $2.5 million including the costs associated with the
disposal as well as the anticipated losses that may be incurred by the business
until its estimated disposal date.
The Company's Health Care Information Systems business, which was also
discontinued in fiscal 1999, was sold in May 1999 (fiscal 2000). The Company
expects to realize a gain of approximately $1.3 million on the disposal of this
business and will recognize the gain in the first quarter of fiscal 2000.

Results of Continued Operations
- -------------------------------
Fiscal Year 1998 Compared to Fiscal Year 1997
- ---------------------------------------------
Revenue
- -------
Net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998 increased 10.5% to $12.3
million from $11.1 million the prior fiscal year. The increase in revenue
resulted from increases in the amount of disposal punch cards and machines sold
to existing customers. Changes in prices of products sold during fiscal 1998
compared to the prior year were not material.
Cost of Sales and Services
- --------------------------
Cost of sales for the year ended March 31, 1998 increased 12.6% to $6.9
million from $6.2 million in the prior year. Cost of sales as a percentage of
sales increased to 56.4% from 55.4%. The increase in cost of sales as a
percentage of revenue resulted primarily from increased costs of raw materials
and labor. Competitive issues precluded the Company from adjusting the prices
charged to customers in order to offset these increases.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG&A")
- -----------------------------------------------------
SG&A expenses for the year ended March 31, 1998 increased 21.0% to $3.7
million compared to $3.0 million the prior year. The increase resulted primarily
from increased personnel and selling costs associated with increased revenue.
Depreciation and Amortization
- -----------------------------
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 2.2% to $959,000 in fiscal
1998 from $981,000 the prior year. The decrease resulted from the fact that
certain assets became fully depreciated in fiscal 1998.
Interest Expense
- ----------------
Interest expense increased 82.0% to $1.0 million in fiscal 1998 from
$583,000 in the prior year. The increase resulted primarily from the suspension
of interest payments during the Chapter 11 proceedings in fiscal 1997. Interest
expense for fiscal 1997 would have been approximately $1.1 million higher if
payments had been required during the Chapter 11 proceedings. Interest payments
resumed in fiscal 1998.
Income Taxes
- ------------
The Company realized an income tax benefit in fiscal 1998 as a result of an
income tax refund related to the amendment of its 1992 income tax return.
Year 2000 Compliance
- --------------------
Introduction
The Company's year 2000 ("Y2K") compliance project is intended to determine
the readiness of the Company's business for the year 2000. The Company has
identified three areas where the Y2K problem creates risk to the Company. These
areas are a) internal information systems; b) system capabilities of third party
business with relationships with the company, including product suppliers,
customers, service providers and companies that interface their software and
hardware products with products sold by the Company; and c) product liability
claims arising out of the non-performance of computer products sold by the
Company.
Plan to Address Y2K Compliance
In December 1998, the Company formed a Y2K compliance project team to
develop an overall plan to address Y2K readiness issues. The plan is being
developed in phases.
<PAGE>
14
o Phase I
a) Identify all internal hardware and software systems that must be
compliant.
b) Appoint individuals within the Company to be responsible for
communication with third party businesses regarding Y2K
readiness.
c) Appoint individuals within the Company to be responsible for
evaluation of product liability issues that may exist regarding
products sold by the Company.
o Phase II - Identify Y2K problems that may exist in each risk area.
o Phase III - Repair, modify or replace systems that are determined to
be non-compliant.
o Phase IV - Test systems to confirm that any repairs, modification or
replacements have resulted in compliance.
State of Readiness
Internal Systems
----------------
The Company has determined that the internal information systems in its
Medication Packaging and Dispensing Systems subsidiary are in a state of Y2K
readiness.
The internal information systems utilized in the Company's Clinical
Laboratory Services business are not Y2K compliant. Management has committed to
a plan to dispose of this business and anticipates that the disposal of the
business will occur before any Y2K readiness issues need to be addressed.
The internal systems utilized by the Company's Health Care Information
Systems business to develop software products for resale were sold in May 1999.
Material Third Party Readiness
------------------------------
Individuals within the Company have been assigned responsibility for
communicating with material third-party businesses with whom the Company has
business relationships and have begun a survey process. The Company will
determine the readiness of third parties prior to September 30, 1999.
Product Liability
The products sold by the Company's Medication Packaging and Dispensing
Systems subsidiary do not have Y2K issues associated with them.
The Services rendered by the Company's Clinical Laboratory Services
business are directly effected by the internal information systems utilized to
perform analytical laboratory tests. If the Company is not successful in
implementing Y2K compliant internal information systems in its Clinical
Laboratory Services business, it could adversely effect that business' ability
to perform diagnostic tests and provide the results of those test to its client
physicians, however, management has committed to a plan to dispose of this
business before the Y2K readiness issues need to be addressed.
The rights to sell the products of the Company's Health Care Information
Systems business were sold in May 1999. Any liabilities arising from Y2K issues
will be assumed by the buyer.
Cost of Project
Expenditures to date on Y2K compliance have not been material to the
Company's operation or financial condition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company had a net loss of $5.4 million in fiscal 1999 compared to a net
loss of $854,000 the prior year. Cash provided from continuing operations was
$1,117,000 in fiscal 1999 compared to $1,591,000 the prior year. Investing
activities of continuing operations used $665,000 in fiscal 1999 compared to
$442,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase resulted primarily from increased capital
expenditures for manufacturing equipment.
Financing activities of continuing operations used $713,000 in fiscal 1999
compared to $1,443,000 the prior year. The decrease resulted primarily from a
decrease in amounts advanced to discontinue operations of the Company. The
decrease was offset in part by payments on long-term debt. The Company's loan
agreement required interest only payments until September 1998 and principal
payments commencing in October 1998.
The Company had working capital of approximately $1.4 million at March 31,
1999 and has no source of additional working capital other than that which is
generated from operations.
The Company's short-term and long-term liquidity is primarily dependent on
its ability to generate cash flow from operations. Inventory levels are not
expected to change significantly based upon the Company's current level of
operation. Increases in revenue have generally resulted in corresponding
increases in accounts receivable. Cash flow from operations is anticipated to
support an increase in accounts receivable.
The Company has several new product development projects underway that will
be funded by cash flow from operations. These projects are monitored on a
regular basis to attempt to ensure that the anticipated costs associated with
them do not exceed the Company's ability to fund them from cash flow from
operations.
The Company believes that cash generated from operations will be sufficient
to meet the capital expenditures, product development and working capital needs
of MTS Packaging as well as support the operations of MTL until its disposal.
In addition, after the disposal of two business segments, the Company will
focus on its core business, MTS Packaging, which has historically generated
positive cash flow from operations. As a result, management believes that
certain administrative costs that were required to support three separate
businesses can be reduced and thereby improve the profitability and liquidity of
the Company.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Medical
Technology Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999 and 1998, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity
(deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March
31, 1999. 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 Medical
Technology Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999 and 1998, and the

MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1999, 1998 AND 1997
NOTE 1 - BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Medical Technology Systems, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation,
incorporated in March of 1984. The Company is a holding company that
historically operated through a number of separate subsidiaries providing a
diverse line of proprietary medication dispensing systems, clinical information
systems and laboratory services to the health care industry. The Company's
principal businesses primarily consisted of the following reportable segments:
(i) the core business of manufacturing and selling proprietary medication
dispensing systems, which include punch cards for use by pharmacies in
dispensing prescription medicines; (ii) the Health Care Information Systems
business consisting of the Performance(TM) pharmacy software, the MedServ and
E-mar computerized medication management systems for hospitals and other health
care facilities, and Cygnet, the fetal monitoring and archiving information
systems for obstetrical clinics of hospitals and doctors' offices; and (iii) the
Clinical Laboratory Services business of supplying anatomical diagnostic testing
services to the medical profession.
Subsequent to March 31, 1999, the Company sold LifeServ Technologies, Inc.
("LifeServ") its Health Care Information Systems segment. In addition, the
Company began discussions with potential buyers to sell Medical Technology
Laboratories, Inc. ("MTL"), its Clinical Laboratory Services segment, and has
committed to either sell the business to other potential buyers or abandon it.
The operations of both business segments have been treated as discontinued in
the accompanying financial statements. The Company realized a gain on the
disposal of its Health Care Information Systems segment that will be recognized
at the disposal date, which occurred on May 27, 1999. The disposal of the
Clinical Laboratory Services segment is anticipated to occur during the second
quarter of fiscal year 2000. The Company expects to realize a loss in the
disposal of this segment and has provided for the estimated loss in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996, voluntary petitions for relief
under Chapter 11 ("Chapter 11") of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code
in the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division (the "Bankruptcy Court") were
filed for four of its subsidiaries (the "MTS debtors"). Plans of Reorganization
for each of the MTS debtors were approved by the Bankruptcy Court on September
4, 1996. On July 10, 1997, Medication Management Technologies, Inc. ("MMT")
filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code in the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division. On
June 12, 1998, the Plan of Reorganization for MMT was confirmed by the
bankruptcy court. The Plan of Reorganization for all MTS debtors and MMT
provided for the restructuring of amounts and repayment terms for secured and
unsecured creditors.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation
- -------------
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries, MTS Packaging Systems, Inc. ("MTS Packaging"), MTL and
LifeServ. MTL and LifeServ represent discontinued operations, and accordingly,
these discontinued segments' net assets or net liabilities are shown as one
amount under the captions "Net Liabilities of Discontinued Operations" for 1999
and "Net Assets of Discontinued Operations" for 1998. The results of operations
of these discontinued segments for 1999, 1998 and 1997 have been excluded from
the components of "Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations" and shown under the
caption "Loss from Operations of Discontinued Operations" in the Statements of
Operations. In addition, the 1997 Statement of Operations include the operations
of Vangard Labs, Inc. ("Vangard") as discontinued operations. All significant
inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Discontinued Operations
- -----------------------
The Company`s Health Care Information Systems business (LifeServ) and its
Clinical Laboratory Services business (MTL) were classified as discontinued
operations in fiscal 1999. The assets of LifeServ were sold in May 1999 and MTL
is expected to be disposed of in fiscal year 2000 (see Note 3). The Company's
generic drug repackaging business, Vangard was classified as a discontinued
operation in fiscal year 1996 and disposed of in April 1997 (see Note 3).
<PAGE>
27
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,
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. The Company has estimated the contractual adjustments that third party
payors apply to the fee schedules used by MTL to determine the amount that will
ultimately be paid to MTL for services provided. The Company has also estimated
the loss on disposal of MTL. The amount of the actual loss may vary from the
estimate based upon the method of ultimately disposing of the business. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
- ----
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less
to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents for all periods
presented.
Inventories
- -----------
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined
by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. As of March 31, 1999 and 1998, the
Company has established an inventory valuation allowance of $140,000 and $0
respectively, to account for the estimated loss in value of inventory due to
obsolescence. The Company will continue to evaluate the inventory and review the
valuation allowance if deemed necessary.
Revenue Recognition
- -------------------
The Company recognizes revenue when products are shipped by MTS Packaging.
MTL (discontinued operations) recognizes revenue from the clinical laboratory
services net of estimated contractual adjustments resulting from the unpaid
portion of the assigned insurance billings and other third party payers, as
services are performed. LifeServ (discontinued operations) recognizes revenue
when systems are placed in service.
The American Institute of Certified Public Accounts ("AICPA") has issued
Statement of Position (SOP) No. 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition", which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. SOP 97-2
establishes certain criteria, which must be satisfied prior to the recognition
of revenue for licensing, selling, leasing or otherwise marketing computer
software. The Company adopted SOP 97-2 in fiscal 1999, which had no material
impact on the Company's financial statements.
Property and Equipment
- ----------------------
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Additions to and major
improvements of property and equipment are capitalized. Maintenance and repair
expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. As property and equipment is
sold or retired, the applicable cost and accumulated depreciation is eliminated
from the accounts and any gain or loss recorded. Depreciation and amortization
are calculated using the straight-line method based upon the assets' estimated
useful lives as follows: Years
Property and Equipment............. 3-7
Leasehold Improvements............. 5
The Company uses accelerated methods of depreciation for tax purposes.
<PAGE>
28
Software and Product Development Cost
- -------------------------------------
All costs associated with the product development from the point of
technological feasibility to its general distribution to customers are
capitalized and, subsequently, amortized. Annually, the Company re-examines its
amortization policy relating to its software and product development cost. The
Company has determined that a five-year period is appropriate.
Effective April 1, 1998, the Company implemented the AICPA's SOP No. 98-1,
"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use". The SOP segments an internal use software project into stages and
the accounting is based on the stage in which a cost is incurred. Costs related
to the preliminary project stage are expensed as incurred. Specified costs
related to the application development stage are capitalized if the preliminary
project is complete, management has authorized the project, and completion of
the project is probable. Costs incurred in the post-implementation/operation
stage for training and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The implementation
of SOP 98-1 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements.
Goodwill
- --------
Goodwill represents amounts paid in excess of fair market value of assets
acquired by the Company in the purchase of other companies. These amounts are
amortized over a ten-year period. See the Accounting for Impairment Note below.
Other Assets
- ------------
Other assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, which is
being provided on a straight-line basis over a five to seventeen year period.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
- -------------------------
Earnings per share are computed using the basic and diluted calculations on
the face of the statement of operations. Basic earnings per share is calculated
by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by
dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding for the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock
equivalents, using the treasury stock method (see Note 18).
Research and Development
- ------------------------
The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. During
fiscal 1999, 1998 and 1997, the Company dedicated its resources to the
completion of product development projects and therefore did not incur any
material research and development costs.
Income Taxes
- ------------
Income taxes are provided for under the liability method in accordance with
FASB No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", whereby deferred tax assets are
recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the
effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Treasury Stock
- --------------
The Company records its treasury stock at cost.
<PAGE>
29
Stock Based Employee Compensation
- ---------------------------------
The Company accounts for its stock options granted to employees in
accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations.
As such, compensation expense would be recorded on the date of granting the
stock options only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded
the exercise price. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, the Company also provides certain pro forma disclosure provisions
of Statement 123 (See Note 15).
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
be Disposed Of
- --------------
Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles, including goodwill,
to be held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets
may not be recoverable. In performing the review for recoverability, the Company
estimates the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets
and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows
(undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of
the assets, an impairment loss is recognized. Long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangibles to be disposed of are to be reported at the lower of
the carrying amount or the fair value less cost to sell, except for assets that
are related to discontinued operations, which are reported at the lower of
carrying value or net realizable value. There were no impairment losses
recognized in 1999, 1998 and 1997. In conjunction with discontinued operations
(see Note 3), there were evaluation adjustments made in 1999.
Bankruptcy Related Accounting Matters and Extraordinary Gain
- ------------------------------------------------------------
In 1997, in conjunction with the Company's Plan of Reorganization confirmed
by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company's debt with its primary bank and its
unsecured creditors was reduced, resulting in an extraordinary gain of
approximately $10.1 million. Since the voting control of the Company's stock
remained the same as a result of the confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization
in 1997, fresh start accounting was not used in 1997 accordance with AICPA SOP
90-7. However, the liabilities compromised by the confirmed plans were recorded
at the present values of the amounts to be paid.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
- -----------------------------------
The carrying amounts of cash receivables, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of the
items.
The carrying amount of current and long-term portions of long-term debt
approximates fair value since the interest rates approximate current prevailing
market rates.
Segment Information
- -------------------
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of a
Business Enterprise". As continuing operations of the Company are conducted
through one business segment as of March 31, 1999 (see Note 3), segment
disclosures, as previously reported, are not provided for in these financial
statements.
NOTE 3 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company implemented a
strategy of focusing its resources in its core business, MTS Packaging, and
divesting of the other two business segments it historically operated.
<PAGE>
30
In May 1999, the Company sold LifeServ, its Health Care Information Systems
business segment. The Asset Acquisition Agreement provided, among other things,
for the buyer to receive substantially all the assets of LifeServ in
consideration of the assumption of certain stated liabilities of approximately
$5 million. During fiscal 1999, LifeServ had revenue of $5.2 million, costs and
expenses of $8.9 million, and a gain on debt forgiveness of $500,000 resulting
in a loss from discontinued operations of $3.7 million. LifeServ's net revenue
for fiscal year 1998 and 1997 were $4.3 million and $1.9 million respectively.
The sale resulted in a gain of approximately $1.3 million, which has been
recognized in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000.
The Company is discussing the possible sale of its Clinical Laboratory
Services subsidiary, MTL, with several potential buyers. In the event that a
sale does not close, management has committed itself to a plan to dispose of MTL
either through a sale to another potential buyer or abandon the business. MTL
had revenue of $14.0 million and costs and expenses of $14.1 million resulting
in a net loss from discontinued operations of $164,000 during the year ended
March 31, 1999. MTL's net revenue for years 1998 and 1997 were $7.4 million and
$6.1 million. A pre-tax charge of approximately $2.5 million for a loss on
disposal of MTL has been recorded in fiscal year 1999 and is shown in the
Consolidated Statement of Operations as estimated loss on disposal of
discontinued operations.
The carrying value of the net assets of discontinued operations at March
31, 1999 and 1998 are comprised of the following.

The charge of $2.5 million for a loss on disposal of MTL resulted in a
reduction of the carrying value of assets of approximately $2.0 million
(goodwill of approximately $900,000 and equipment of approximately $1,100,000)
and a reserve of $500,000, included in current liabilities, for the estimated
costs of disposal and operating losses through the disposal date.
In January 1996, the operations of Vangard Labs, Inc. ("Vangard") were
curtailed, and Vangard filed a Voluntary Petition under Chapter 11 in the
bankruptcy court in February 1996 and was subsequently sold in April 1997. The
proceeds of the sale, approximately $3.1 million, were utilized to reduce the
Company's outstanding obligation to its principal lender. In addition, the buyer
assumed certain liabilities of Vangard of $673,000. As a result of the sales,
the Company recognized an extraordinary gain on the disposal of the assets of
Vangard of $2.2 million, net of income taxes, in the fiscal year ended March 31,
1997.
During 1997, Vangard was principally managed by a plan trustee approved by
the bankruptcy court. Vangard's operations were minimal, basically at a
maintenance level only with revenue of $550,000. Vangard's costs and expenses
totaled $3.7 million, creating a loss from operations of $2.8 million, before
the effect of the gain of $3.5 million recognized from the forgiveness of
Vangard's pre-petition unsecured creditors ($2.7 million) debt as part of the
bankruptcy proceedings and the gain on forgiveness of a post petition loan made
by Vangard's bank ($800,000).

The bank notes payable are collateralized by the Company's accounts
receivables, inventory, equipment and intangibles.
At March 31, 1999, the Company was in violation of certain covenants of the
bank term loan agreement. The Company requested a waiver of certain defaults,
which may have occurred under the loan agreement as a result of these
violations. On July 16, 1999, the bank provided the Company with a waiver of the
defaults through June 30, 1999. In addition, the bank and the Company agreed to
modify these financial covenants of the loan agreement for results of operations
subsequent to July 1, 1999. The covenants prohibit the Company from exceeding a
maximum deficit net worth and provide for limits on annual capital expenditures
as well as the maintenance of certain financial ratios.
In August 1998, the Company borrowed $150,000 from three individuals,
including $100,000 from the Chairman and C.E.O. to support the operations of
Medical Technology Laboratories, Inc. ("MTL"). The terms and conditions of these
obligations provide for repayment within six months from the borrowing date
including interest payable at 12% per annum. In addition, the notes provide the
lenders with warrants to purchase 88,500 shares of common stock of the Company
at $.75 per share for a period of ten (10) years. The fair value assigned to the
warrants is insignificant. The obligation is currently in default for
non-payment.

In October 1998, the Company borrowed $200,000 from an individual to
support the operations of MTL. The terms and conditions of this obligation
include repayment on September 1, 1999 including interest at 12% per annum. The
notes provide the lenders with warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of common
stock of the company at $.75 per share for a period of ten (10) years. The fair
value assigned to the warrants is insignificant. In the event that the Company
defaults on its obligations under the promissory note, the lender is entitled to
receive warrants to purchase up to 800,000 and 18,000 shares of common stock at
$.05 and $.75 per share, respectively, for a period of ten (10) years. In
addition, the note is secured by 290,313 shares of the Company's common stock
owned by the Chairman and C.E.O.

Todd E. Siegel ("Siegel") is the Trustee of the Siegel Family QTIP Trust
(the "Trust"), which is the general partner in JADE Partners, a significant
shareholder of the Company. The Trust has entered into an exclusive Technology
and Patent Licensing Agreement with the Company for certain technologies and
patents on machine and product designs.
Under the terms of the amended agreement, the Company is required to pay to
the Trust royalties of one percent of sales on licensed products. In addition,
the agreement states that there are no minimum royalty payments due and the
agreement would expire if the Company abandons or ceases to use the
technologies. Royalty payments were $51,000, $50,000 and $76,000 in the years
ended March 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. Accrued royalty payments due
as of March 31, 1999 and 1998 total approximately $75,000 and $104,000,
respectively.
Siegel, through his beneficial interest in the Trust, owns approximately 10
percent of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company. In addition, Siegel
beneficially owns 6,500,000 shares of voting preferred stock, which have two
votes per share for all matters submitted to the holders of the Common Stock of
the Company.
Siegel had outstanding indebtedness to the Company at March 31, 1999 and
March 31, 1998 of approximately $0 and $10,466.

Total income tax (benefit) expense for 1999, 1998 and 1997 from continuing
operations resulted in effective tax rates of 37.5%, (73.0%) and 37.5%,
respectively. The reasons for the differences between these effective tax rates

At March 31, 1999, the Company had deferred tax assets available from
continuing operations of approximately $5.8 million as shown above. Deferred
taxes for discontinued operations as of March 31, 1999 total approximately $2.2
million consisting principally of estimated losses on disposal of segments and
depreciation/amortization temporary differences. A tax benefit has not been
recorded for these assets, as it is not yet more likely than not that these
benefits will be realized by reducing future taxable income. At March 31, 1999,
the Company had approximately $13.7 million of carryforward losses that will
expire by 2013 that are available to offset future taxable income.
The March 31, 1998 deferred tax asset amounts presented include both
continuing and discontinued operations, as it is not currently practical to
segregate the amounts.

Common Stock
During fiscal 1999, the Company issued 287,318 shares of common stock to
complete a previous agreement (see below).
During fiscal 1998, the Company issued 150,000 shares of common stock in
lieu of a debt payment to a former employee of the Company. These shares were
valued based upon the value of the debt payment reduction, and the agreement
required additional shares to be issued one year later such that the total value
of all shares issued be equal to $150,000. In addition, 22,500 shares were
issued to employees for services and were valued at $0.32 per share, which was
the approximate market value at the time they were issued.
Preferred Stock
The JADE Family Partnership ("Partnership") is currently the holder of
6,500,000 shares of Voting Preferred Stock. The Siegel Family QTIP Trust,
established pursuant to the terms of the Siegel Family Revocable Trust (the
"Trust"), which originally acquired the shares of Voting Preferred Stock in 1986
for the aggregate par value of the shares ($650.00), transferred the shares to
the Siegel Family Limited Partnership in 1993. The Siegel Family Limited
Partnership transferred the shares to the Partnership in 1994. The Company's CEO
is the trustee of the Trust, which is the managing general partner of the
Partnership, and accordingly, controls the shares held by the Partnership.
The Voting Preferred Stock has two votes per share on all matters submitted
to a vote of other holders of Common Stock. In addition to preferential voting
rights, the Voting Preferred Stock is entitled to receive upon dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, the first $10,000 of proceeds distributed to
stockholders of the Company upon such events. Thereafter, the Voting Preferred
Stock is entitled to no additional amounts upon dissolution or liquidation of
the Company. The Voting Preferred Stock has no dividend rights, redemption
provisions, sinking fund provisions or conversion, or preemptive or exchange
rights. The Voting Preferred Stock is not subject to further calls or
assessments by the Company.

The Company has adopted only the disclosure provisions of Financial
Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," as it
relates to employment awards. It applies APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for

NOTE 16 - BUSINESS ACQUISITION
In September 1998, the Company, through its subsidiary MTL, entered into an
agreement to purchase certain assets of Community Clinical Laboratories, Inc.
("CCL"), principally equipment and goodwill/customer base, in exchange for a
$2,500,000 contingent note payable for a period of five years. The primary
operations of CCL were previously suspended in July 1998 when certain agencies
of both the State of Florida and the Federal Government revoked CCL's ability to
seek reimbursement for its laboratory testing services from both the Medicare
and Medicaid programs and seized CCL's accounting records.
During the third quarter of fiscal year 1999, the Company recorded the
acquisition of the assets of CCL as a purchase. Accordingly, the Company
estimated the amount ultimately payable pursuant to the contingent note payable
and allocated the total estimated cost of the acquisition to equipment based
upon an independent appraisal, and the remainder to goodwill/customer base.
During the fourth quarter, the Company changed its preliminary estimate of the
present value of the amount that may be ultimately payable on the contingent
note payable from approximately $2,000,000 to approximately $1,058,000 based on
a more thorough analysis of historical and expected cash collections and
correspondingly reduced the amount of goodwill/customer base recorded to
approximately $250,000. The goodwill/customer base has a ten-year amortization
period.
As a result of the uncertainty related to the operations of CCL prior to
the acquisition of certain assets by MTL and the lack of reliable financial
information related to the historical operation of CCL, as well as due to
management's decision in fiscal 1999 to sell or abandon MTL, pro-forma results
as if the business combination occurred April 1, 1997 and 1998 are not deemed
meaningful and have not been presented.
NOTE 17 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On May 27, 1999, the Company sold the assets of its subsidiary, LifeServ
(See Note 3).
NOTE 18 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income
(loss) by the basic and diluted weighted average number of shares of common
stock outstanding. For diluted weighted average shares outstanding, the Company
used the treasury stock method to calculate the Common Stock equivalents that
the stock options would represent.

The effect of all options and warrants (see Note 15) for all years were not
included in the calculation of net income (loss) per diluted common share as the

NOTE 19 - CONTINGENCIES
The Company sold its subsidiary LifeServ in May 1999 (See Notes 2 and 18).
The buyer assumed all stated liabilities of LifeServ including a certain
long-term obligation of approximately $536,000 payable to a financial
institution and secured by equipment at a customer site and a contract
receivable. The Company was a guarantor of the obligation at the time the
obligation originated and continues as a guarantor.
In November 1998, the Company's subsidiary, MTL, received a refund request
in the amount of $1.8 million from Medicare Program Safeguards ("MPS") and
$104,000 from the State of Florida Agency for Health Care Administration
("AHCA"). The requests followed an onsite review of MTL's billing procedures by
agencies of both the State of Florida and the federal government. The Company
has requested a hearing in the matter, and MPS and AHCA have suspended the
recoupment of the refund until the hearing takes place. Although MTL believes
that MPS's determination and the request for refunds are without merit, there
can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved over the near term or that
the ultimate outcome of the matter will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial condition and results of operation.
The Company is involved in certain claims and legal actions arising in the
ordinary course of business. There can be no assurances that these matters will
be resolved on terms acceptable to the Company. In the opinion of management,
based upon advice of counsel and consideration of all facts available at this
time, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse
effect on the financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the
Company.
The year 2000 issue relates to limitations in computer systems and
applications that may prevent proper recognition of the year 2000. The potential
effect of the year 2000 issue on the Company and its business partners will not
be fully determinable until the year 2000 and hereafter. If year 2000
modifications are not properly completed either by the Company or entities with
which the Company conducts business, the Company's revenues and financial
condition could be adversely impacted.

the Lender under any Loan Document, or allowed it by law or equity shall be
cumulative of each other and may be exercised in addition to any and all
other rights of the Lender, and no delay in exercising any right shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by
the Lender of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right. The Borrower expressly waives any
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, including but not
limited to notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceleration. No
notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall, of itself, entitle
the Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances.
B. Applicable Law. This Loan Agreement and the rights and obligations
of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance
with the laws of Florida and applicable United States federal law.
C. Amendment. No modification, consent, amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Loan Agreement, nor consent to any departure by the
Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by the Lender, and then shall be effective only in the specified
instance and for the purpose for which given. This Loan Agreement is
binding upon the Borrower, its respective successors and assigns, and
inures to the benefit of the Lender, its successors and assigns; however,
no assignment or other transfer of the Borrower's rights or obligations
hereunder shall be made or be effective without the Lender's prior written
consent, nor shall it relieve the Borrower of any obligations hereunder.
There is no third party beneficiary of this Loan Agreement.
D. Documents. All documents, certificates and other items required
under this Loan Agreement to be executed and/or delivered to the Lender
shall be in form and content satisfactory to the Lender and its counsel.
E. Partial Invalidity. The unenforceability or invalidity of any
provision of this Loan Agreement shall not affect the enforceability or
validity of any other provision herein and the invalidity or
unenforceability of any provision of any Loan Document to any person or
circumstance shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such
provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances.
<PAGE>

F. Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in Section 11(G), the Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold the Lender
and its successors and assigns harmless from and against any and all
claims, demands, suits, losses, damages, assessments, fines, penalties,
costs or other expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court
costs) arising from or in any way related to any of the transactions
contemplated hereby, including but not limited to actual or threatened
damage to the environment, agency costs of investigation, personal injury

EXHIBIT "A"
With respect to individuals, an "accredited investor" is defined by Rule
501(a) of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
("Reg D"), as (i) "any natural person whose individual net worth, or joint net
worth with that person's spouse, at the time of his purchase exceeds
$1,000,000," (ii) "any natural person who had an individual income in excess of
$200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with that person's
spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of those years and has a reasonable
expectation of reaching the same income level in the current year," or (iii)
"any director, executive officer, or general partner of the issuer of the
securities being offered or sold, or any director, executive officer or general
partner of a general partner of that issuer."
"Purchaser representative" is defined by Reg D as a person that is "not
an affiliate, director, officer or other employee of the issuer, or beneficial
owner of 10 percent or more of any class of the equity securities or 10 percent
or more of the equity interest in the issuer," unless the purchaser is (a) a
relative of the purchaser representative by blood, marriage, or adoption, and is
not more remote than a first cousin; (b) a trust or estate in which the
purchaser representative and any persons related to him as described in sections
(a) or (c) of this paragraph collectively have more than 50% of the beneficial
interest (excluding contingent interest) or of which the purchaser

corporation or other organization of which the purchaser representative and any
persons related to him as described in sections (a) or (b) of this paragraph
collectively are the beneficial owners of more than 50% of the equity securities

representative" must have such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters that he is capable of evaluating (together with the purchaser
or other purchaser representatives of the purchaser) the merits and risks of the
prospective investment. A "purchaser representative" must also meet certain
acknowledgement and disclosure requirements described in Reg D.

PROMISSORY NOTE
Date: October 16, 1998 Maturity Date: June 1, 1999
Amount: $200,000.00
================================================================================
Lender: Borrower:
Joan L. Fitterling, as Trustee, or her Medical Technology Systems, Inc.
successor in Trust of the Joan L. 12920 Automobile Boulevard
Fitterling Revocable Trust dated Clearwater, Florida 33762
August 15, 1995
358 Bahia Vista Drive
Indian Rocks Beach, FL 33785
================================================================================
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned Borrower unconditionally (and jointly and
severally, if more than one) promises to pay to the order of the Lender, its
successors and assigns, without setoff, at its offices indicated at the
beginning of this Note, or at such other place as may be designated by the
Lender, the principal amount of Two Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars
($200,000.00), or so much thereof as may be advanced from time to time in
immediately available funds, together with interest computed daily on the
outstanding principal balance hereunder, at an annual interest rate, and in
accordance with the payment schedule, indicated below.
1. Rate
Fixed Rate. The Rate shall be fixed at twelve percent (12.0%) per annum.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Note, the Lender does not intend to
charge and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount of interest
or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by the applicable law
of the State of Florida; if any higher rate ceiling is lawful, then that
higher rate ceiling shall apply. Any payment in excess of such maximum
shall be refunded to the Borrower or credited against principal, at the
option of the Lender.
2. Accrual Method. Unless otherwise indicated, interest at the Rate set forth
above will be calculated by the 365/360 day method (a daily amount of interest
is computed for a hypothetical year of 360 days; that amount is multiplied by
the actual number of days for which any principal is outstanding hereunder).
<PAGE>
2
3. Payment Schedule. Interest only payments shall be made commencing one month
from the date hereof and continuing on the same day of each succeeding month
until June 1, 1999, at which time the principal and all accrued interest shall
be due and payable. The maturity date of this Note shall be automatically
extended from June 1, 1999 to September 1, 1999 if the Borrower satisfies all of
the terms and conditions of a Loan Agreement of even date herewith between the
Borrower and the Lender. All payments received hereunder shall be applied first
to the payment of any expense or charges payable hereunder or under any other
documents executed in connection with this Note, then to interest due and
payable, with the balance being applied to principal, or in such other order as
the Lender shall determine at its option. Any payments made by check which are
returned for insufficient funds shall be subject to a $30.00 returned check
charge, or such higher amount as provided by law. Any returned check shall
constitute a default hereunder, notwithstanding any previous waiver of such
default. The Lender reserves the right to require cashier's checks for any
future payments the return of any check for insufficient funds.
4. Waivers, Consents and Covenants. The Borrower, any endorser or guarantor
hereof, or any other party hereto (individually an "Obligor" and collectively
"Obligors") and each of them jointly and severally: (a) waive presentment,
demand, protest, notice of demand, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of
acceleration of maturity, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of
dishonor, and any other notice required to be given under the law to any Obligor
in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement
of this Note, any endorsement or guaranty of this Note, or any other documents
executed in connection with this Note or any other note or other loan documents
now or hereafter executed in connection with any obligation of the Borrower to
the Lender (the "Loan Documents"); (b) consent to all delays, extensions,
renewals or other modifications of this Note or the Loan Documents, or waivers
of any term hereof or of the Loan Documents, or release or discharge by the
Lender of any of Obligors, or release, substitution or exchange of any security
for the payment hereof, or the failure to act on the part of the Lender, or any
indulgence shown by the Lender (without notice to or further assent from any of
Obligors), and agree that no such action, failure to act or failure to exercise
any right or remedy by the Lender shall in any way affect or impair the
obligations of any Obligors or be construed as a waiver by the Lender of, or
otherwise affect, any of the Lender's rights under this Note, under any
endorsement or guaranty of this Note or under any of the Loan Documents; and (c)
agree to pay, on demand, all costs and expenses of collection or defense of this
Note or of any endorsement or guaranty hereof and/or the enforcement or defense
of the Lender's rights with respect to, or the administration, supervision,
preservation, or protection of, or realization upon, any property securing
payment hereof, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's and
paralegal's fees, including fees related to any suit, mediation or arbitration
proceeding, out of court payment agreement, trial, appeal, bankruptcy
proceedings or other proceeding, in such amount as may be determined reasonable
by any arbitrator or court, whichever is applicable.
5. Indemnification. Obligors agree to promptly pay, indemnify and hold the
Lender harmless from all state and federal taxes of any kind and other
liabilities with respect to or resulting from the execution and/or delivery of
this Note or any advances pursuant to this Note. If this Note has a revolving
feature and is secured by a mortgage, Obligors expressly consent to the
deduction of any applicable taxes from each taxable advance extended by the
Lender.
6. Prepayments. Prepayments may be made in whole or in part at any time without
premium or penalty. All prepayments of principal shall be applied in the inverse
order of maturity, or in such other order as the Lender shall determine in its
sole discretion.
<PAGE>

7. Events of Default. The following are events of default hereunder: (a) the
failure to pay any obligation, liability or indebtedness of any Obligor to the
Lender, whether under this Note or any Loan Documents, as and when due (whether
at maturity or by acceleration); (b) the failure to perform any other
obligation, liability or indebtedness of any Obligor to the Lender, which
failure is not cured within fifteen (15) days from the date on which the Lender
provides the Borrower written notice of such failure to the extent that default
any such default can be cured by the Borrower; (c) the commencement of a
proceeding against any Obligor for dissolution or liquidation, the voluntary or
involuntary termination or dissolution of any Obligor or the merger or
consolidation of any Obligor with or into another entity; (d) the insolvency of,
the business failure of, the appointment of a custodian, trustee, liquidator or
receiver for or for any of the property of, the assignment for the benefit of
creditors by, or the filing of a petition under bankruptcy, insolvency or
debtor's relief law or the filing of a petition for any adjustment of
indebtedness, composition or extension by or against any Obligor; (e) the
determination by the Lender that any representation or warranty made to the
Lender by any Obligor in any Loan Documents or otherwise or in any financial
statement or financial information submitted to the Lender by the Borrower is or
was, when it was made, untrue or materially misleading; (f) the entry of a
judgment against any Obligor in excess of $50,000.00, which judgment is not
satisfied or bonded off within thirty (30) days from the date of entry of the
judgment; (g) the seizure or forfeiture of, or the issuance of any writ of
possession, garnishment or attachment which writ relates to any damage in excess
of $50,000.00 and which writ is not dismissed within thirty (30) days from the
date of issuance of any such writ; or (h) the failure of the Borrower's business
to comply in any material respect with any law or regulation controlling its
operation.
8. Remedies upon Default. Whenever there is a default under this Note (a) the
entire balance outstanding hereunder and all other obligations of any Obligor to
the Lender (however acquired or evidenced) shall, at the option of the Lender,
become immediately due and payable and any obligation of the Lender to permit
further borrowing under this Note shall immediately cease and terminate; (b) to
the extent permitted by law, the Rate of interest on the unpaid principal shall
be increased at the Lender's discretion up to the maximum rate allowed by law,
or if none, 18% per annum (the "Default Rate"); (c) the warrant to purchase
800,000 shares of the common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Borrower at
a price of $.05 per share (the "Warrant"), attached to the Note as Exhibit A,
will become exercisable for up to ten years or until such time as the Borrower
cures the default by paying to the Lender the entire balance outstanding
hereunder in which case the Warrant will terminate (if the Borrower cures the
default within six months after the Lender exercises the Warrant, the Borrower
will be entitled to repurchase the common stock purchased by the Lender at the
Lender's purchase price as defined in the Warrant); and (d) to the extent
permitted by law, a delinquency charge may be imposed in the amount of 5% of the
outstanding balance for each day any payment is in default for more than 5 days.
The provisions herein for a Default Rate shall not be deemed to extend the time
for any payment hereunder or to constitute a "grace period" giving the Obligors
a right to cure any default. At the Lender's option, any accrued and unpaid
interest, fees or charges may, for purposes of computing and accruing interest
on a daily basis after the due date of the Note or any installment thereof, be
deemed to be a part of the principal balance, and interest shall accrue on a
daily compounded basis after such date at the Default Rate provided in this Note
until the entire outstanding balance of principal and interest is paid in full.
Upon a default under this Note, the Lender is hereby authorized at any time, at
its option and without notice or demand, to set off and charge against any
deposit accounts of any Obligor (as will any money, instruments, securities,
documents, chattel paper, credits, claims, demands, income andy any other
property, rights and interests of any Obligor), which at any time shall come
into the possession or custody or under the control of the Lender or any of its
agents, affiliates or correspondents, any and all obligations due hereunder.
Additionally, the Lender shall have all rights and remedies available under each
of the Loan Documents, as well as all rights and remedies available at law or in
equity. Any judgment rendered on this Note shall bear interest at the highest
rate of interest permitted pursuant to Chapter 687, Florida Statutes.
<PAGE>
4
9. Non-waiver. The failure at any time of the Lender to exercise any of its
options or any other rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver thereof, nor
shall it be a bar to the exercise of any of its options or rights at a later
date. All rights and remedies of the Lender shall be cumulative and may be
pursued singly, successively or together, at the option of the Lender. The
acceptance by the Lender of any partial payment shall not constitute a waiver of
any default or of any of the Lender's rights under this Note. No waiver of any
of its rights hereunder, and no modification or amendment of this Note, shall be
deemed to be made by the Lender unless the same shall be in writing, duly signed
on behalf of the Lender; each such waiver shall apply only with respect to the
specific instance involved, and shall in no way impair the rights of the Lender
or the obligations of Obligors to the Lender in any other respect at any other
time.
10. Applicable Law, Venue and Jurisdiction. This Note and the rights and
obligations of the Borrower and the Lender shall be governed by and interpreted
in accordance with the law of the State of Florida. In any litigation in
connection with or to enforce this Note or any endorsement or guaranty of this
Note or any Loan Documents, Obligors, and each of them, irrevocably consent to
and confer personal jurisdiction on the courts of the State of Florida or the
United States located within the State of Florida and expressly waive any
objections as to venue in any such courts. Nothing contained herein shall,
however, prevent the Lender from bringing any action or exercising any rights
within any other state or jurisdiction or from obtaining personal jurisdiction
by any other means available under applicable law. The interest rate charged on
this Note is authorized by Chapter 655, Florida Statutes and Section 687.12,
Florida Statutes.
11. Partial Invalidity. The unenforceability or invalidity of any provision of
this Note shall not affect the enforceability validity of any other provision
herein and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Note or
of the Loan Documents to any person or circumstance shall not affect the
enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or
circumstances.
12. Binding Effect. This Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the Borrower, Obligors and the Lender and their respective successors, assigns,
heirs and personal representatives, provided, however, that no obligations of
the Borrower or Obligors hereunder can be assigned without prior written consent
of the Lender.
13. Controlling Document. To the extent that this Note conflicts with or is in
any way incompatible with any other document related specifically to the loan
evidenced by this Note, this Note shall control over any other such document and
if this Note does not address an issue, then each other such document shall
control to the extent that it deals most specifically with an issue.

MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS, INC.
Warrant to Purchase 100,000 Shares, Subject to Adjustment,

VOID AFTER 5:00 P.M., EASTERN STANDARD TIME
ON October 16, 2008 OR SUCH LATER DATE AS
DESCRIBED IN THE FIRST PARAGRAPH BELOW
This certifies that, for value received, Joan L. Fitterling, as Trustee, or
her successor in Trust of the Joan L. Fitterling Revocable Trust dated August
15, 1995, or registered assigns (collectively with Joan L. Fitterling, as
Trustee, or her successor in Trust of the Joan L. Fitterling Revocable Trust
dated August 15, 1995, the "Holder"), is entitled to purchase from Medical
Technology Systems, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company"), 100,000 shares
(which become exercisable on the date hereof), (the "Shares") of the Company's
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), at a price of $0.75
per Share (the "Exercise Price") for ten years after the warrant becomes
exercisable with respect to such shares (the "Exercise Period"), subject to the
terms, conditions, and adjustments set forth in this warrant (the "Warrant").
1. Exercise of Warrants. This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part
by the Holder during the applicable Exercise Period upon presentation and
surrender hereof, with the Purchase Form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly
executed, at the office of the Company located at 12920 Automobile Boulevard,
Clearwater, Florida 33762, accompanied by full payment of the Exercise Price
multiplied by the number of Shares of the Company being purchased (the "Purchase
Price"), whereupon the Company shall cause the appropriate number of Shares to
be issued and shall deliver to the Holder, within 10 days of surrender of the
Warrant, a certificate representing the Shares being purchased. Upon each
partial exercise hereof, a new Warrant evidencing the remainder of the Shares
will be issued to the Holder, at the Company's expense, as soon as reasonably
practicable, at the same Exercise Price, for the same Exercise Period(s), and
otherwise on the same terms and conditions as the Warrant partially exercised.
The Purchase Price shall be payable by delivery of a certified or bank cashier's
check payable to the Company, or by wire transfer of immediately available funds
to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of the
Purchase Price, or, if the Company's Common Stock is listed on a securities
exchange or market, in the manner set forth in the following paragraph if
requested by the Holder in the Purchase Form. The Holder shall be deemed for all
purposes to have become the holder of record of Shares so purchased upon
exercise of this Warrant as of the close of business on the date as of which
this Warrant, together with a duly executed Purchase Form, was delivered to the
Company and payment of the Purchase Price was made, regardless of the date of
delivery of any certificate representing the Shares so purchased, except that if
the Company were subject to any legal requirements prohibiting it from issuing
shares of Common Stock on such date, the Holder shall be deemed to have become
the record holder of such Shares on the next succeeding date as of which the
Company ceased to be so prohibited.
<PAGE>
2
If the Company's Common Stock is listed on a securities exchange or market,
in addition to the method of payment set forth above and in lieu of any cash
payment required, the Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant in
full or in part by surrendering this Warrant in the manner specified above in
exchange for the number of Shares equal to the product of (x) the number of
Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised multiplied by (y) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the Market Price (as defined below) less the Purchase
Price, and the denominator of which is the Market Price. For purpose of this
Warrant, "Market Price" shall mean the average closing sale price quoted on a
share of Common Stock on the NASDAQ National Market or the principal stock
exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded for the three trading days
immediately prior to the date of the delivery to the Company of a purchase form
(or if the Company's Common Stock is not traded or listed on the NASDAQ National
Market or any other principal securities market, the average of the closing bid
prices on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market, the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board, or
otherwise in the over-the-counter market on such days as reported by NASDAQ, the
National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or any comparable system, or if not so
reported, as reported by any New York Stock Exchange member firm selected in
good faith by the Company for such purpose).
2. Exchange; Restrictions on Transfer or Assignment. This Warrant is
exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon surrender
hereof to the Company for other Warrants of different denominations entitling
the Holder to purchase in the aggregate the same number of Shares purchasable
hereunder. Subject to compliance with the Act, applicable state securities laws,
and the requirements pertaining to transfer described in Section 5, this Warrant
and the Holder's rights hereunder are transferable. To effect a transfer of this
Warrant, the Holder shall surrender the Warrant to the Company at its principal
office with the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and
executed (with signature guaranteed), whereupon the Company, if the proposed
assignment is permitted pursuant to the provisions hereof, shall register the
assignment of this Warrant in accordance with the information contained in the
assignment instrument and shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new
Warrant or Warrants in the name(s) of the assignee or assignees named in such
assignment instrument (and, if applicable, a new Warrant in the name of the
Holder evidencing any remaining portion of the Warrant not theretofore
exercised, transferred, or assigned) and this Warrant shall promptly be
cancelled. The term "Warrant" as used herein includes any Warrants into which
this Warrant may be divided or exchanged.
3. Rights and Obligations of Warrant Holders. This Warrant does not confer
upon the Holder any rights as a shareholder of the Company, either at law or in
equity. The rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed herein and the
Holder, by acceptance hereof, consents to and agrees to be bound by and to
comply with all the provisions of this Warrant. Each Holder, by acceptance of
this Warrant, agrees that the Company and its transfer agent, if any, may, prior
to any presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer, deem and treat
the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the absolute, true, and
lawful owner of this Warrant for all purposes whatsoever and neither the Company
nor any transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
4. Covenants and Warranties of the Company. The Company covenants and
agrees that (i) any and all Shares that are issued and delivered upon exercise
of this Warrant and payment of the Purchase Price will, upon delivery, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully-paid, and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
and (ii) the Company shall at all times during the Exercise Period reserve and
keep available a number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant. The Company will take
all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all shares of Common Stock
may be so issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or
government regulation or any requirement of any securities exchange upon which
shares of Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance,
which the Company will transmit promptly upon issuance of such shares).
<PAGE>
3
The Company represents and warrants that (i) the Company is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing, and of active status under the laws of the
State of Florida, (ii) the Company has all requisite corporate power and
authority to issue this Warrant and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby, and such issuance and consummation will not conflict with, result in a
material breach of, constitute a material default under, or material violation
of any provision of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or any
law or regulation of any governmental authority or any provision of any
agreement, judgment, or decree affecting the Company and (iii) all corporate
action required to be taken by the Company in connection with the execution and
delivery of this Warrant and the performance of the Company's obligations
hereunder has been taken.
5. Disposition of Warrants or Shares. The Holder acknowledges that this
Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise thereof have not been registered
under the Act or applicable state law. The Holder agrees, by acceptance of this
Warrant, (i) that no sale, transfer, or distribution of this Warrant or the
Shares shall be made except in compliance with the Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, including any applicable prospectus delivery
requirements and the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, and (ii) that if
any distribution or any other transfer of this Warrant or any Shares is proposed
to be made by it otherwise than pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Act, such action shall be taken only after submission to the Company
of an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
Company and its counsel, to the effect that the proposed distribution will not
be in violation of the Act or of applicable state law.
6. Adjustment. The number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant and the Exercise Price per Share are subject to adjustment from time to
time as provided in this Section 6.
(a) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company shall at any
time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number
of shares (including a stock split effected as a stock dividend) or combine
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a lesser number of shares, the
number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted
to such number as is obtained by multiplying the number of shares issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision or
combination by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to
such subdivision or combination and the denominator of which is the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such subdivision or combination, and the Exercise Price per Share shall be
correspondingly adjusted to such amount as shall, when multiplied by the
number of Shares issuable upon full exercise of this Warrant (as increased
or decreased to reflect such subdivision or combination of outstanding
shares of Common Stock, as the case may be), equal the product of the
Exercise Price per Share in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or
combination multiplied by the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision or combination.

(b) Effect of Sale, Merger, or Consolidation. If any capital
reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or
consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or sale of
all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another corporation
shall be effected after the date hereof in such a way that holders of
Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or assets with
respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale, lawful
and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter
have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and the terms and
conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the Shares immediately
theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such shares of stock, securities, or assets as may be issued or payable
with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore
purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and in any
such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights
and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions of this Warrant
(including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise
Price and of the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be possible, in
relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter
deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not effect
any such consolidation, merger, or sale unless prior to or simultaneously
with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the
Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing such assets shall assume, by written instrument executed and
delivered to the Holder at its last address appearing on the books of the
Company, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock,
securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing sentence, the
Holder may be entitled to purchase.
(c) Issuance of Common Stock Below Exercise Price. If the Company
shall issue or sell shares of Common Stock or rights, options, warrants, or
convertible or exchangeable securities containing the right to subscribe
for or purchase shares of Common Stock ("Common Stock Equivalents")
pursuant to the exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents outstanding on the
date of the Note under any of the Company's employee benefit plans), at a
price per share of Common Stock (determined, in the case of Common Stock
Equivalents, by dividing (A) the total amount receivable by the Company in
consideration of the issuance and sale of such Common Stock Equivalent,
plus the total consideration payable to the Company upon exercise,
conversion, or exchange thereof, by (B) the total number of shares of
Common Stock covered by such Common Stock Equivalent), that is lower
(calculated the date of such sale or issuance) than the Exercise Price, or
for no consideration, then:
(i) in each case the number of shares of Common Stock thereafter
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant (whether or not
presently exercisable) shall be increased in a manner
determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant by a
fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the
sale or issuance plus the number of additional shares of
Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase or to be
issued upon exercise, conversion, or exchange of such Common
Stock Equivalent, and of which the denominator shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to the sale or issuance plus the number of shares of
Common Stock that the "aggregate consideration to be
received by the Company" (as defined below) in connection
with such sale or issuance would purchase at the Exercise
Price. For the purpose of such adjustments the "aggregate
consideration to be received by the Company" shall be the
consideration received by the Company for such Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents, plus any consideration or
premiums stated in the Common Stock Equivalents to be paid
for the shares of Common Stock covered thereby; and
(ii) in each case the Exercise Price will be reduced to the price
calculated by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1)
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
before such issuance or sale multiplied by the then existing
Exercise Price plus (2) the aggregate consideration, if any,
received by the Company upon such issuance or sale, by (B)
the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such issuance or sale plus the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise,
conversion, or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalents
issued or sold in the transaction for which the Company is
making this adjustment.
<PAGE>
5
If the Company shall issue or sell shares of Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents for a consideration consisting, in
whole or in part, of property other than cash or its
equivalent, then in determining the "price per share of
Common Stock" and the "consideration" receivable by or
payable to the Company for purposes of this Section 6(c),
the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in
good faith, the fair value of such property. If the Company
shall issue and sell Common Stock Equivalents, together with
one or more other securities as part of a unit at a price
per unit, then in determining the "price per share of Common
Stock" and the "consideration" receivable by or payable to
the Company for purposes of this Section 6(c), the Board of
Directors of the Company shall determine, in good faith, the
fair value of the Common Stock Equivalents then being sold
as part of such unit.
(d) If any event occurs as to which the preceding Sections 6(a)
through (c) are not strictly applicable, but as to which the failure to
make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and
principles of this Warrant, as determined by the Company or as requested by
the Holder in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 12, then, in
each such case, the Company shall select an independent investment bank or
firm of independent public accountants, such investment bank or firm of
independent public accountants to be selected from a group of three
nationally recognized investment banks or firms of public accountants
chosen by the Holder, which will give its opinion as to the adjustment, if
any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles
established in this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will
promptly deliver a copy of such opinion to the Holder and will make the
adjustments described in such opinion. The fees and expenses of such
investment bank or independent public accountants will be borne by the
Company. If the adjustment is requested by the Holder, however, and the
investment bank or firm of independent public accountants selected by the
Company pursuant to this paragraph determines that no adjustment is
necessary, then the fees and expenses described in the preceding sentence
shall be borne by the Holder.
(e) Notice to Holder of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Shares
purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price per Share
is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the
Holder within 5 days of such adjustment, in accordance with the provisions
of Section 12, notice setting forth the adjusted number of Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant and the adjusted Exercise
Price and showing in reasonable detail the computation of the adjustment
and the facts upon which such adjustment is based.
(f) Notices to Holder of Certain Events. If at any time after the date
hereof:
(i) the Company shall declare any dividend or other distribution
upon or with respect to the Common Stock, including any
dividend payable in cash, shares of Common Stock or other
securities of the Company; or
(ii) the Company shall offer for subscription to the holders of
its Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class
or any other securities convertible into Common Stock or any
rights to subscribe thereto; or
(iii)there shall be any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company (other
than a change in par value, or from par value to no par
value, or from no par value to par value or as result of the
subdivision or combination of shares), or any conversion of
the Shares into securities of another corporation, or a sale
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or
a consolidation or merger of the Company with another
corporation (other than a merger with a subsidiary in which
the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not
result in any reclassification or change of the Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants); or
<PAGE>
6
(iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation, or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall cause to be
mailed to the Holder, not less than 15 days before any record date or other
date set for the definitive action, written notice of the date upon which
the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for
purposes of such dividend, distribution or subscription rights or upon
which such reorganization, reclassification, conversion, sale,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up shall take
place, as the case may be. Such notice shall also set forth facts as shall
indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known
at the date of such notice) on the number of Shares and the kind and amount
of the shares of stock and other securities and property deliverable upon
exercise of the Warrants. Such notice shall also specify the date as of
which the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock shall participate
in such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or shall be entitled
to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or other property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, conversion, sale,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case
may be (on which date in the event of voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation, or winding up of the Company, the right to exercise the
Warrants shall terminate).
7. Piggy-Back Registration.
(a) If the Company shall, at any time prior to the expiration of this
Warrant, authorize a registration of its Common Stock with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the Company shall furnish the Holder
with at least 30 days prior written notice thereof and the Holder shall
have the option to include the Shares to be issued to the Holder upon the
exercise of this Warrant in such registration statement. The Holder shall
exercise the "piggy-back registration rights" granted pursuant to this
Section 7 by giving written notice to the Company within 20 days of the
receipt of the written notice from the Company described above.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant, the Company's
obligations under this Section 7 shall be subject to the following terms
and conditions:
(i) The obligations of the Company set forth under this Section
7 shall not arise upon the filing of a registration
statement that covers any of the following: (A) securities
proposed to be issued in exchange for assets or securities
of another corporation; (B) debt securities not convertible
into, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock; (C)
securities to be issued pursuant to a transaction registered
on Form S-4 (or any registration form promulgated by the SEC
in substitution of that form); or (D) a stock option, stock
bonus, stock purchase, or other employee benefit or
compensation plan or securities issued or issuable pursuant
to any such plan.
(ii) If the Company files a registration statement in connection
with an underwritten public offering of Common Stock, the
Company shall use its best efforts to cause the managing
underwriter of the proposed offering to grant any request by
the Holder that Shares purchased by the Holder upon the
exercise of this Warrant be included in the proposed public
offering on terms and conditions that are customary under
industry practice. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, if the managing underwriter of the public
offering of the Common Stock gives written notice to the
Company that, in the reasonable opinion of such managing
underwriter, marketing factors require a limitation of the
total number of shares of Common Stock to be underwritten,
then the number of Shares purchased by the Holder upon the
exercise of this Warrant that the Company shall be obligated
to include in the registration statement shall be reduced in
accordance with the limitations imposed by the managing
underwriter.
<PAGE>
7
(iii)The Holder must provide to the Company all information, and
take all action, the Parent reasonably requests with
reasonable advance notice, to enable it to comply with any
applicable law or regulation or to prepare the registration
statement that will cover the Shares that will be included
in the registration.
(c) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses (as defined below)
in connection with the registration of the Shares pursuant to this Section
7. For purposes of this Warrant, the term "Registration Expenses" shall
mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with this Section 7,
including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, exchange
listing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company, state Blue Sky fees and expenses, transfer agent fees, cost of
engraving of stock certificates, costs for mailing and tombstone
advertising, cost of preparing the registration statement, related
exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto, underwriting documents,
selected dealer agreements, preliminary and final prospectuses, and the
expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such
registration, but excluding underwriting discounts and selling commissions
attributable to the Shares and the fees and expenses of the Holder's own
counsel and accountants, which shall be borne by the Holder.
8. Indemnification and Notification.
(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Holder from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities
caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement or contained in a prospectus furnished thereunder or
caused by any omission to state a material fact necessary to make any
statement therein not misleading. The foregoing indemnification and
agreement to hold harmless shall not apply, however, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities are caused by an untrue
statement or omissions based upon information furnished in writing to the
Company by the Holder expressly for use in any registration statement or
prospectus.
(b) The Holder will indemnify the Company, and each person who
controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities
caused by an untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement or contained in a prospectus furnished thereunder or
caused by an omission to state a material fact necessary to make any
statement therein not misleading insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
expenses, and liabilities are caused by an untrue statement or omission
based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by the Holder
expressly for use in any registration statement or prospectus.
(c) Each indemnified party promptly shall notify each indemnifying
party of any claim asserted or action commenced against it that is subject
to the indemnification provisions of this Section, but failure to so notify
an indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any
liability pursuant to these indemnity provisions or otherwise, unless and
only to the extent that the failure materially prejudices the rights or
obligations of the indemnifying party. Without limiting what might be
materially prejudicial to an indemnifying party, the failure of an
indemnified party to notify an indemnifying party of a lawsuit within ten
days after the date when the indemnified party is served with a copy of the
complaint, petition, or other pleading asserting the indemnifiable claim
will be considered materially prejudicial to the rights and obligations of
any indemnifying party who was not also served with a copy of the
complaint, petition, or other pleading asserting the indemnifiable claim.
<PAGE>
8
The indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the
defense, or, if the indemnifying party so elects within a reasonable time,
the indemnifying party may assume the defense, of any action commenced
against the indemnified party that is the subject of indemnification under
this Section. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of an
indemnified action, however, the indemnifying party shall engage to defend
the action legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.
If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of any indemnified
action, the indemnified party, and each controlling person who is a
defendant in the action, will be entitled to employ separate counsel
participate in the defense of the action at its own expense.
An indemnified party shall not settle an indemnified claim or action
without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party and the
indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement made without its
consent. The indemnifying party shall notify the indemnified party whether
or not it will consent to a proposed settlement within ten days after it
receives from the indemnified party notice of the proposed settlement,
summarizing all the terms and conditions of settlement. The indemnifying
party's failure to notify the indemnified party within that ten-day period
whether or not it consents to the proposed settlement will constitute its
consent to the proposed settlement.
This indemnity does not apply to any untrue statement or omission, or
any alleged untrue statement or omission that was made in a preliminary
prospectus but remedied or eliminated in the final prospectus (including
any amendment or supplement to it), if a copy of the definitive prospectus
(including any amendment or supplement to it) was delivered to the person
asserting the claim at or before the time required by the Securities Act
and the delivery of the definitive prospectus (including any amendment or
supplement to it) constitutes a defense to the claim asserted by the
person.
9. No Impairment. The Company will not by any action including, without
limitation, amending or permitting the amendment of the charter documents,
bylaws, or similar instruments of the Company or through any reorganization,
reclassification, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, share exchange,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other similar voluntary action,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the express terms
of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out
of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary to
protect the rights of the Holder against impairment or dilution. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) take all such
action as may be reasonably necessary in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon exercise
of the Warrant, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities, and claims
and (ii) use all reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations,
exemptions, or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction over
the Company as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations
under this Warrant.
10. Dilution Fee. If, during the Exercise Period, the Company pays any cash
dividends or makes any cash distribution to any holder of any class of its
Common Stock with respect to such Common Stock and the Exercise Price exceeds
the Market Price, then the Holder of this Warrant will be entitled to receive in
respect of this Warrant a dilution fee in cash (the "Dilution Fee") on the date
of payment of such dividend or distribution, which Dilution Fee will be equal to
the amount per share paid to the holders of Common Stock times the number of
Shares currently exercisable under this Warrant.
11. Survival. The various rights and obligations of the Holder and of the
Company as set forth in Sections 4 and 5 hereof shall survive the exercise of
this Warrant and the surrender of this instrument upon such exercise.
<PAGE>
9
12. Notice. All notices required by this Warrant to be given or made by the
Company shall be given or made by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed
to the registered Holder hereof at the address of such Holder as shown on the
books of the Company.
13. Loss or Destruction. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
and, in the case of any loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company
and its counsel, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
14. Miscellaneous.
(a) Neither this Warrant nor any term hereof may be changed, waived,
discharged, or terminated except by a written instrument executed by the
Company and the Holder.
(b) This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in
accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Florida, without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws thereof.
(c) Each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such a
manner as to be effective, valid, and enforceable under applicable law, but
if any provision of this Warrant is held to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such
provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity,
illegality, or unenforceability in such jurisdiction, without invalidating
the remainder of this Warrant in such jurisdiction or any provision hereof
in any other jurisdiction.
(d) No course of dealing or delay or failure to exercise any right
hereunder on the part of the Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right
or otherwise prejudice the Holder's rights, power, or remedies.
(e) The Company shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection
with, and all documentary stamp and other taxes (other than stock transfer
taxes) and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of,
the issue, sale and delivery of this Warrant and the Shares issuable upon
the exercise hereof.
(f) This Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company
and the successors and permitted assigns of the Holder.
<PAGE>

15. Further Assurances. The Company agrees that it will execute and record
such documents as the Holder shall reasonably request to secure for the Holder
any of the rights represented by this Warrant.

FORM OF WARRANT
MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS, INC.
Warrant to Purchase up to 18,000 Shares
of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share
VOID AFTER 5:00 P.M., EASTERN STANDARD TIME
ON OR BEFORE October 16, 2008
This certifies that, for value received Joan L. Fitterling, as Trustee, or
her successor in Trust of the Joan L. Fitterling Revocable Trust dated August
15, 1995, or registered assigns (collectively Joan L. Fitterling, as Trustee, or
her successor in Trust of the Joan L. Fitterling Revocable Trust dated August
15, 1995, the "Holder"), is entitled to purchase from Medical Technology
Systems, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company"), if a promissory note of
Joan L. Fitterling, as Trustee, or her successor in Trust of the Joan L.
Fitterling Revocable Trust dated August 15, 1995, a copy of which is attached
hereto as Exhibit A (the "Note"), is not paid in full as described below, up to
18,000 fully paid and nonassessable shares (the "Shares") of the Common Stock,
par value $.01 per share, of the Company ("Common Stock"), which will become
exercisable as follows: 6,000 Shares if the Note (including any accrued
interest) is not paid in full on or before June 1, 1999, an additional 6,000
Shares if the Note (including any accrued interest) is not paid in full on or
before July 1, 1999, and an additional 6,000 Shares if the Note (including any
accrued interest) is not paid in full on or before August 1, 1999, in each case
at a price of $0.75 per Share (the "Exercise Price") for ten years after the
warrant becomes exercisable with respect to such Shares (the "Exercise Period"),
subject to the terms, conditions, and adjustments set forth in this Warrant (the
"Warrant").
1. Exercise of Warrants. This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part
by the Holder during the applicable Exercise Period upon presentation and
surrender hereof, with the Purchase Form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly
executed, at the office of the Company located at 12920 Automobile Boulevard,
Clearwater, Florida 33762, accompanied by full payment of the Exercise Price
multiplied by the number of Shares of the Company being purchased (the "Purchase
Price"), whereupon the Company shall cause the appropriate number of Shares to
be issued and shall deliver to the Holder, within 10 days of surrender of the
Warrant, a certificate representing the Shares being purchased. Upon each
partial exercise hereof, a new Warrant evidencing the remainder of the Shares
will be issued to the Holder, at the Company's expense, as soon as reasonably
practicable, at the same Exercise Price, for the same Exercise Periods, and
otherwise on the same terms and conditions as the Warrant partially exercised.
The Purchase Price shall be payable by delivery of a certified or bank cashier's
check payable to the Company, or by wire transfer of immediately available funds
to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of the
Purchase Price, or, if the Company's Common Stock is listed on a securities
exchange or market, in the manner set forth in the following paragraph if
requested by the Holder in the Purchase Form. The Holder shall be deemed for all
purposes to have become the holder of record of Shares so purchased upon
exercise of this Warrant as of the close of business on the date as of which
this Warrant, together with a duly executed Purchase Form, was delivered to the
Company and payment of the Purchase Price was made, regardless of the date of
delivery of any certificate representing the Shares so purchased, except that if
the Company were subject to any legal requirements prohibiting it from issuing
shares of Common Stock on such date, the Holder shall be deemed to have become
the record holder of such Shares on the next succeeding date as of which the
Company ceased to be so prohibited.
If the Company's Common Stock is listed on a securities exchange or
market, in addition to the method of payment set forth above and in lieu of any
cash payment required, the Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant
in full or in part by surrendering this Warrant in the manner specified above in
exchange for the number of Shares equal to the product of (x) the number of
Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised multiplied by (y) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the Market Price (as defined below) less the Purchase
Price, and the denominator of which is the Market Price. For purpose of this
Warrant, "Market Price" shall mean the average closing sale price quoted on a
share of Common Stock on the NASDAQ National Market or the principal stock
exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded for the three trading days
immediately prior to the date of the delivery to the Company of a purchase form
(or if the Company's Common Stock is not traded or listed on the NASDAQ National
Market or any other principal securities market, the average of the closing bid
prices on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market, the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board, or
otherwise in the over-the-counter market on such days as reported by NASDAQ, the
National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or any comparable system, or if not so
reported, as reported by any New York Stock Exchange member firm selected in
good faith by the Company for such purpose).

2. Exchange; Restrictions on Transfer or Assignment. This Warrant is
exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon surrender
hereof to the Company for other Warrants of different denominations entitling
the Holder to purchase in the aggregate the same number of Shares purchasable
hereunder. Subject to compliance with the Act, applicable state securities laws,
and the requirements pertaining to transfer described in Section 5, this Warrant
and the Holder's rights hereunder are transferable. To effect a transfer of this
Warrant, the Holder shall surrender the Warrant to the Company at its principal
office with the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit C duly completed and
executed (with signature guaranteed), whereupon the Company, if the proposed
assignment is permitted pursuant to the provisions hereof, shall register the
assignment of this Warrant in accordance with the information contained in the
assignment instrument and shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new
Warrant or Warrants in the name(s) of the assignee or assignees named in such
assignment instrument (and, if applicable, a new Warrant in the name of the
Holder evidencing any remaining portion of the Warrant not theretofore
exercised, transferred, or assigned) and this Warrant shall promptly be
cancelled. The term "Warrant" as used herein includes any Warrants into which
this Warrant may be divided or exchanged.
3. Rights and Obligations of Warrant Holders. This Warrant does not confer
upon the Holder any rights as a shareholder of the Company, either at law or in
equity. The rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed herein and the
Holder, by acceptance hereof, consents to and agrees to be bound by and to
comply with all the provisions of this Warrant. Each Holder, by acceptance of
this Warrant, agrees that the Company and its transfer agent, if any, may, prior
to any presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer, deem and treat
the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the absolute, true, and
lawful owner of this Warrant for all purposes whatsoever and neither the Company
nor any transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

4. Covenants and Warranties of the Company. The Company covenants and
agrees that (i) any and all Shares that are issued and delivered upon exercise
of this Warrant and payment of the Purchase Price will, upon delivery, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully-paid, and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
and (ii) the Company shall at all times during the Exercise Period reserve and
keep available a number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant. The Company will take
all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all shares of Common Stock
may be so issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or
government regulation or any requirement of any securities exchange upon which
shares of Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance,
which the Company will transmit promptly upon issuance of such shares).
The Company represents and warrants that (i) the Company is a
corporation duly organized, validly existing, and of active status under the
laws of the State of Florida, (ii) the Company has all requisite corporate power
and authority to issue this Warrant and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby, and such issuance and consummation will not conflict with,
result in a material breach of, constitute a material default under, or material
violation of any provision of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws,
or any law or regulation of any governmental authority or any provision of any
agreement, judgment, or decree affecting the Company and (iii) all corporate
action required to be taken by the Company in connection with the execution and
delivery of this Warrant and the performance of the Company's obligations
hereunder has been taken.
5. Disposition of Warrants or Shares. The Holder acknowledges that this
Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise thereof have not been registered
under the Act or applicable state law. The Holder agrees, by acceptance of this
Warrant, (i) that no sale, transfer, or distribution of this Warrant or the
Shares shall be made except in compliance with the Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, including any applicable prospectus delivery
requirements and the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, and (ii) that if
any distribution or any other transfer of this Warrant or any Shares is proposed
to be made by it otherwise than pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Act, such action shall be taken only after submission to the Company
of an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
Company and its counsel, to the effect that the proposed distribution will not
be in violation of the Act or of applicable state law.
6. Adjustment. The number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant and the Exercise Price per Share are subject to adjustment from time to
time as provided in this Section 6.
(a) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company shall at any
time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number
of shares (including a stock split effected as a stock dividend) or combine
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a lesser number of shares, the
number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted
to such number as is obtained by multiplying the number of shares issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision or
combination by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to
such subdivision or combination and the denominator of which is the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such subdivision or combination, and the Exercise Price per Share shall be
correspondingly adjusted to such amount as shall, when multiplied by the
number of Shares issuable upon full exercise of this Warrant (as increased
or decreased to reflect such subdivision or combination of outstanding
shares of Common Stock, as the case may be), equal the product of the
Exercise Price per Share in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or
combination multiplied by the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision or combination.

(b) Effect of Sale, Merger, or Consolidation. If any capital
reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or
consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or sale of
all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another corporation
shall be effected after the date hereof in such a way that holders of
Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or assets with
respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale, lawful
and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter
have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and the terms and
conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the Shares immediately
theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such shares of stock, securities, or assets as may be issued or payable
with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore
purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and in any
such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights
and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions of this Warrant
(including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise
Price and of the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be possible, in
relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter
deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not effect
any such consolidation, merger, or sale unless prior to or simultaneously
with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the
Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing such assets shall assume, by written instrument executed and
delivered to the Holder at its last address appearing on the books of the
Company, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock,
securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing sentence, the
Holder may be entitled to purchase.
(c) Issuance of Common Stock Below Exercise Price. If the Company
shall issue or sell shares of Common Stock or rights, options, warrants, or
convertible or exchangeable securities containing the right to subscribe
for or purchase shares of Common Stock ("Common Stock Equivalents")
pursuant to the exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents outstanding on the
date of the Note under any of the Company's employee benefit plans), at a
price per share of Common Stock (determined, in the case of Common Stock
Equivalents, by dividing (A) the total amount receivable by the Company in
consideration of the issuance and sale of such Common Stock Equivalent,
plus the total consideration payable to the Company upon exercise,
conversion, or exchange thereof, by (B) the total number of shares of
Common Stock covered by such Common Stock Equivalent), that is lower
(calculated the date of such sale or issuance) than the Exercise Price, or
for no consideration, then:
(i) in each case the number of shares of Common Stock thereafter
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant (whether or not presently
exercisable) shall be increased in a manner determined by multiplying
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the
Warrant by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the sale or
issuance plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered
for subscription or purchase or to be issued upon conversion,
exercise, or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalent, and of which
the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the sale or issuance plus the number
of shares of Common Stock that the "aggregate consideration to be
received by the Company" (as defined below) in connection with such
sale or issuance would purchase at the Exercise Price. For the purpose
of such adjustments the "aggregate consideration to be received by the
Company" shall be the consideration received by the Company for such
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, plus any consideration or
premiums stated in the Common Stock Equivalents to be paid for the
shares of Common Stock covered thereby; and
<PAGE>
5
(ii) in each case the Exercise Price will be reduced to the price
calculated by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such
issuance or sale multiplied by the then existing Exercise Price Plus
(2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon
such issuance or sale, by (B) the total number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately after such issuance or sale plus the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise,
conversion, or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalents issued or sold
in the transaction for which the Company is making this adjustment.
If the Company shall issue or sell shares of Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents for a consideration consisting, in whole or in part, of
property other than cash or its equivalent, then in determining the "price
per share of Common Stock" and the "consideration" receivable by or payable
to the Company for purposes of this Section 6(c), the Board of Directors of
the Company shall determine, in good faith, the fair value of such
property. If the Company shall issue and sell Common Stock Equivalents,
together with one or more other securities as part of a unit at a price per
unit, then in determining the "price per share of Common Stock" and the
"consideration" receivable by or payable to the Company for purposes of
this Section 6(c), the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine,
in good faith, the fair value of the Common Stock Equivalents then being
sold as part of such unit.
(d) If any event occurs as to which the preceding Sections 6(a)
through (c) are not strictly applicable, but as to which the failure to
make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and
principles of this Warrant, as determined by the Company or as requested by
the Holder in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 12, then, in
each such case, the Company shall select an independent investment bank or
firm of independent public accountants, such investment bank or firm of
independent public accountants to be selected from a group of three
nationally recognized investment banks or firms of public accountants
chosen by the Holder, which will give its opinion as to the adjustment, if
any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles
established in this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will
promptly deliver a copy of such opinion to the Holder and will make the
adjustments described in such opinion. The fees and expenses of such
investment bank or independent public accountants will be borne by the
Company. If the adjustment is requested by the Holder, however, and the
investment bank or firm of independent public accountants selected by the
Company pursuant to this paragraph determines that no adjustment is
necessary, then the fees and expenses described in the preceding sentence
shall be borne by the Holder.
(e) Notice to Holder of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Shares
purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price per Share
is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the
Holder within 5 days of such adjustment, in accordance with the provisions
of Section 12, notice setting forth the adjusted number of Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant and the adjusted Exercise
Price and showing in reasonable detail the computation of the adjustment
and the facts upon which such adjustment is based.
<PAGE>

(f) Notices to Holder of Certain Events. If at any time after the date
hereof:
(i) the Company shall declare any dividend or other distribution
upon or with respect to the Common Stock, including any dividend
payable in cash, shares of Common Stock or other securities of the
Company; or
(ii) the Company shall offer for subscription to the holders of
its Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or any
other securities convertible into Common Stock or any rights to
subscribe thereto; or
(iii) there shall be any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company (other than a
change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par
value to par value or as result of the subdivision or combination of
shares), or any conversion of the Shares into securities of another
corporation, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company, or a consolidation or merger of the Company with another
corporation (other than a merger with a subsidiary in which the
Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any
reclassification or change of the Shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants); or
(iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation, or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall cause to be
mailed to the Holder, not less than 15 days before any record date or other
date set for the definitive action, written notice of the date upon which
the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for
purposes of such dividend, distribution or subscription rights or upon
which such reorganization, reclassification, conversion, sale,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up shall take
place, as the case may be. Such notice shall also set forth facts as shall
indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known
at the date of such notice) on the number of Shares and the kind and amount
of the shares of stock and other securities and property deliverable upon
exercise of the Warrants. Such notice shall also specify the date as of
which the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock shall participate
in such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or shall be entitled
to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or other property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, conversion, sale,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case
may be (on which date in the event of voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation, or winding up of the Company, the right to exercise the
Warrants shall terminate).
7. Piggy-Back Registration.
(a) If the Company shall, at any time prior to the expiration of this
Warrant, authorize a registration of its Common Stock with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the Company shall furnish the Holder
with at least 30 days prior written notice thereof and the Holder shall
have the option to include the Shares to be issued to the Holder upon the
exercise of this Warrant in such registration statement. The Holder shall
exercise the "piggy-back registration rights" granted pursuant to this
Section 7 by giving written notice to the Company within 20 days of the
receipt of the written notice from the Company described above.
<PAGE>
7
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant, the Company's
obligations under this Section 7 shall be subject to the following terms
and conditions:
(i) The obligations of the Company set forth under this Section 7
shall not arise upon the filing of a registration statement that
covers any of the following: (A) securities proposed to be issued in
exchange for assets or securities of another corporation; (B) debt
securities not convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of Common
Stock; (C) securities to be issued pursuant to a transaction
registered on Form S-4 (or any registration form promulgated by the
SEC in substitution of that form); or (D) a stock option, stock bonus,
stock purchase, or other employee benefit or compensation plan or
securities issued or issuable pursuant to any such plan.
(ii) If the Company files a registration statement in connection
with an underwritten public offering of Common Stock, the Company
shall use its best efforts to cause the managing underwriter of the
proposed offering to grant any request by the Holder that Shares
purchased by the Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant be included
in the proposed public offering on terms and conditions that are
customary under industry practice. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter of the public offering
of the Common Stock gives written notice to the Company that, in the
reasonable opinion of such managing underwriter, marketing factors
require a limitation of the total number of shares of Common Stock to
be underwritten, then the number of Shares purchased by the Holder
upon the exercise of this Warrant that the Company shall be obligated
to include in the registration statement shall be reduced in
accordance with the limitations imposed by the managing underwriter.
(iii) The Holder must provide to the Company all information, and
take all action, the Parent reasonably requests with reasonable
advance notice, to enable it to comply with any applicable law or
regulation or to prepare the registration statement that will cover
the Shares that will be included in the registration.
(c) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses (as defined below)
in connection with the registration of the Shares pursuant to this Section
7. For purposes of this Warrant, the term "Registration Expenses" shall
mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with this Section 7,
including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, exchange
listing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company, state Blue Sky fees and expenses, transfer agent fees, cost of
engraving of stock certificates, costs for mailing and tombstone
advertising, cost of preparing the registration statement, related
exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto, underwriting documents,
selected dealer agreements, preliminary and final prospectuses, and the
expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such
registration, but excluding underwriting discounts and selling commissions
attributable to the Shares and the fees and expenses of the Holder's own
counsel and accountants, which shall be borne by the Holder.
8. Indemnification and Notification.
(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Holder from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities
caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement or contained in a prospectus furnished thereunder or
caused by any omission to state a material fact necessary to make any
statement therein not misleading. The foregoing indemnification and
agreement to hold harmless shall not apply, however, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities are caused by an untrue
statement or omissions based upon information furnished in writing to the
Company by the Holder expressly for use in any registration statement or
prospectus.
<PAGE>
8
(b) The Holder will indemnify the Company, and each person who
controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities
caused by an untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement or contained in a prospectus furnished thereunder or
caused by an omission to state a material fact necessary to make any
statement therein not misleading insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
expenses, and liabilities are caused by an untrue statement or omission
based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by the Holder
expressly for use in any registration statement or prospectus.
(c) Each indemnified party promptly shall notify each indemnifying
party of any claim asserted or action commenced against it that is subject
to the indemnification provisions of this Section, but failure to so notify
an indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any
liability pursuant to these indemnity provisions or otherwise, unless and
only to the extent that the failure materially prejudices the rights or
obligations of the indemnifying party. Without limiting what might be
materially prejudicial to an indemnifying party, the failure of an
indemnified party to notify an indemnifying party of a lawsuit within ten
days after the date when the indemnified party is served with a copy of the
complaint, petition, or other pleading asserting the indemnifiable claim
will be considered materially prejudicial to the rights and obligations of
any indemnifying party who was not also served with a copy of the
complaint, petition, or other pleading asserting the indemnifiable claim.
The indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the
defense, or, if the indemnifying party so elects within a reasonable time,
the indemnifying party may assume the defense, of any action commenced
against the indemnified party that is the subject of indemnification under
this Section. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of an
indemnified action, however, the indemnifying party shall engage to defend
the action legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.
If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of any indemnified
action, the indemnified party, and each controlling person who is a
defendant in the action, will be entitled to employ separate counsel
participate in the defense of the action at its own expense.
An indemnified party shall not settle an indemnified claim or action
without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party and the
indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement made without its
consent. The indemnifying party shall notify the indemnified party whether
or not it will consent to a proposed settlement within ten days after it
receives from the indemnified party notice of the proposed settlement,
summarizing all the terms and conditions of settlement. The indemnifying
party's failure to notify the indemnified party within that ten-day period
whether or not it consents to the proposed settlement will constitute its
consent to the proposed settlement.
This indemnity does not apply to any untrue statement or omission, or
any alleged untrue statement or omission that was made in a preliminary
prospectus but remedied or eliminated in the final prospectus (including
any amendment or supplement to it), if a copy of the definitive prospectus
(including any amendment or supplement to it) was delivered to the person
asserting the claim at or before the time required by the Securities Act
and the delivery of the definitive prospectus (including any amendment or
supplement to it) constitutes a defense to the claim asserted by the
person.

9. No Impairment. The Company will not by any action including, without
limitation, amending or permitting the amendment of the charter documents,
bylaws, or similar instruments of the Company or through any reorganization,
reclassification, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, share exchange,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other similar voluntary action,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the express terms
of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out
of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be reasonably
necessary to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment or dilution.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) take all
such action as may be necessary in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon exercise
of the Warrant, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities, and claims
and (ii) use all reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations,
exemptions, or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction over
the Company as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations
under this Warrant.
10. Dilution Fee. If, during the Exercise Period, the Company pays any cash
dividends or makes any cash distribution to any holder of any class of its
Common Stock with respect to such Common Stock and the Exercise Price exceeds
the Market Price, then the Holder of this Warrant will be entitled to receive in
respect of this Warrant a dilution fee in cash (the "Dilution Fee") on the date
of payment of such dividend or distribution, which Dilution Fee will be equal to
the amount per share paid to the holders of Common Stock times the number of
Shares currently exercisable under this Warrant.
11. Survival. The various rights and obligations of the Holder and of the
Company as set forth in Sections 4 and 5 hereof shall survive the exercise of
this Warrant and the surrender of this instrument upon such exercise.
12. Notice. All notices required by this Warrant to be given or made by the
Company shall be given or made by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed
to the registered Holder hereof at the address of such Holder as shown on the
books of the Company.
13. Loss or Destruction. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
and, in the case of any loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company
and its counsel, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
14. Miscellaneous.
(a) Neither this Warrant nor any term hereof may be changed, waived,
discharged, or terminated except by a written instrument executed by the
Company and the Holder.
(b) This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in
accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Florida, without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws thereof.
<PAGE>
10
(c) Each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such a
manner as to be effective, valid, and enforceable under applicable law, but
if any provision of this Warrant is held to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such
provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity,
illegality, or unenforceability in such jurisdiction, without invalidating
the remainder of this Warrant in such jurisdiction or any provision hereof
in any other jurisdiction.
(d) No course of dealing or delay or failure to exercise any right
hereunder on the part of the Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right
or otherwise prejudice the Holder's rights, power, or remedies.
(e) The Company shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection
with, and all documentary stamp and other taxes (other than stock transfer
taxes) and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of,
the issue, sale and delivery of this Warrant and the Shares issuable upon
the exercise hereof.
(f) This Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company
and the successors and permitted assigns of the Holder.
15. Further Assurances. The Company agrees that it will execute and record
such documents as the Holder shall reasonably request to secure for the Holder
any of the rights represented by this Warrant.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by
its duly authorized officer as of the 16th day of October 1998.

OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND THE
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION
THEREFROM AND WITH THE CONSENT OF THE ISSUER. THE ISSUER MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION

WARRANT
MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS, INC.
Warrant to Purchase 800,000 Shares
of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share
VOID AS PROVIDED HEREIN
This certifies that, in consideration of a loan that is evidenced by the
Promissory Note described below, Joan L. Fitterling, as Trustee, or her
successor in Trust of the Joan L. Fitterling Revocable Trust dated August 15,
1995, or registered assigns (the "Holder") is entitled, subject to the terms set
forth below, to purchase from Medical Technology Systems, Inc. (the "Company")
up to 800,000, fully paid and nonassessable shares (the "Shares") of Common
Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"), which will
become exercisable if the Company defaults on its obligations under the
Promissory Note from the Company in favor of the Holder, a copy of which is
attached as Exhibit A (the "Note") at a price of $.05 per share (the "Exercise
Price"). The Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the Exercise
Price shall be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this
Warrant.
<PAGE>

1. Exercise Period; Exercise of Warrant. (a) This Warrant shall become
exercisable by the Holder if the Company defaults on its obligations under the
Note and shall remain exercisable for ten years after the warrant become
exercisable unless and until the Company cures the default by paying to the
Holder the full amount of the outstanding balance due under the Note in which
case the Warrant will terminate (the "Exercise Period").
(b) Manner of Exercise: This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in
part by the Holder during the Exercise Period upon presentation and
surrender of this Warrant, with the Purchase Form attached to this Warrant
as Exhibit A duly executed, at the office of the Company located at 12920
Automobile Boulevard, Clearwater, Florida 33762, accompanied by full
payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Shares of the
Company being purchased (the "Purchase Price"), whereupon the Company shall
cause the appropriate number of Shares to be issued and shall deliver to
the Holder, as promptly as practicable, a certificate representing the
Shares being purchased. Upon each partial exercise hereof, a new Warrant
evidencing the remainder of the Shares will be issued to the Holder, at the
Company's expense, as soon as reasonably practicable, at the same Exercise
Price, for the same Exercise Period, and otherwise of like tenor as the
Warrant partially exercised. The Purchase Price shall be payable by
delivery of a certified or bank cashier's check payable to the Company, or
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in
writing by the Company, in the amount of the Purchase Price. The Holder
shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the holder of record of
Shares so purchased upon exercise of this Warrant as of the close of
business on the date as of which this Warrant, together with a duly
executed Purchase Form, was delivered to the Company and payment of the
Purchase Price was made, regardless of the date of delivery of any
certificate representing the Shares so purchased, except that if the
Company were subject to any legal requirements prohibiting it from issuing
shares of Common Stock on such date, the Holder shall be deemed to have
become the record holder of such Shares on the next succeeding date as of
which the Company ceased to be so prohibited.
2. Repurchase of Shares by the Company. For a period of six months after
the Holder exercises the warrant and purchases Shares of Common Stock, the
Company will have the right to repurchase the Shares from the Holder at the
Purchase Price paid by the Holder if the Company has cured the default under the
Note by paying to the Holder the full amount of the outstanding balance due
under the Note.
<PAGE>

3. Transfer Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that this Warrant and the
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant have not been registered under the
Securities Act or applicable state law. The Holder agrees, by acceptance of this
Warrant, (i) that no sale, transfer or disposition of this Warrant or the Shares
shall be made prior to the expiration of the six month period described in
Section 2 and after such period only if such transfer or disposition is made in
compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")
and the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act, including
any applicable prospectus delivery requirements and the restrictions on transfer
set forth in this Warrant, and (ii) that if distribution of this Warrant or any
Shares is proposed to be made by it otherwise than by delivery of a prospectus
meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, such action shall
be taken only after submission to the Company of an opinion of counsel,
reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company's counsel, to the
effect that the proposed distribution will not be in violation of the Securities
Act or of applicable state law.
4. Rights and Obligations of Warrant Holder. This Warrant does not confer
upon the Holder any rights as a shareholder of the Company, either at law or in
equity. The rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed herein and the
Holder, by acceptance hereof, consents to and agrees to be bound by and to
comply with all the provisions of this Warrant. The Holder, by acceptance of
this Warrant, agrees that the Company and its transfer agent, if any, may, prior
to any presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer, deem and treat
the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the absolute, true, and
lawful owner of this Warrant for all purposes whatsoever and neither the Company
nor any transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
5. Covenants and Warranties of the Company. The Company covenants and
agrees that (i) all Shares which may be issued and delivered upon exercise of
this Warrant and payment of the Purchase Price will, upon delivery, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
and (ii) the Company shall at all times during the Exercise Period reserve and
keep available a number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant. The Company will take
all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all shares of Common Stock
may be so issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or
government regulation or any requirement of any securities exchange upon which
shares of Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance,
which the Company will transmit promptly upon issuance of such shares).
<PAGE>
4
The Company represents and warrants that (i) the Company is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
state of Florida, (ii) the Company has all requisite corporate power and
authority to issue this Warrant and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby, and such issuance and consummation will not conflict with, result in a
material breach of, constitute a material default under or material violation of
any provision of the Company's charter documents or bylaws, and to the best
knowledge of the Company, any law or regulation of any governmental authority or
any provision of any agreement, judgment or decree affecting the Company and
(iii) all corporate action required to be taken by the Company in connection
with the execution and delivery of this Warrant and the performance of the
Company's obligations under this Warrant has been taken.
6. Adjustment. The number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant and the Exercise Price per Share are subject to adjustment from time to
time as provided in this Section 6.
(a) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company shall at any
time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number
of shares (including a stock split effected as a stock dividend) or combine
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a lesser number of shares, the
number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted
to such number as is obtained by multiplying the number of shares issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision or
combination by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to
such subdivision or combination and the denominator of which is the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such subdivision or combination, and the Exercise Price per Share shall be
correspondingly adjusted to such amount as shall, when multiplied by the
number of Shares issuable upon full exercise of this Warrant (as increased
or decreased to reflect such subdivision or combination of outstanding
shares of Common Stock, as the case may be), equal the product of the
Exercise Price per Share in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or
combination multiplied by the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision or combination.

(b) Effect of Sale, Merger, or Consolidation. If any capital
reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or
consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or sale of
all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another corporation
shall be effected after the date hereof in such a way that holders of
Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or assets with
respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale, lawful
and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter
have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and the terms and
conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the Shares immediately
theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such shares of stock, securities, or assets as may be issued or payable
with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore
purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and in any
such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights
and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions of this Warrant
(including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise
Price and of the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be possible, in
relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter
deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not effect
any such consolidation, merger, or sale unless prior to or simultaneously
with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the
Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing such assets shall assume, by written instrument executed and
delivered to the Holder at its last address appearing on the books of the
Company, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock,
securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing sentence, the
Holder may be entitled to purchase.
(c) Issuance of Common Stock Below Exercise Price. If the Company
shall issue or sell shares of Common Stock or rights, options, warrants, or
convertible or exchangeable securities containing the right to subscribe
for or purchase shares of Common Stock ("Common Stock Equivalents")
pursuant to the exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents outstanding on the
date of the Note under any of the Company's employee benefit plans), at a
price per share of Common Stock (determined, in the case of Common Stock
Equivalents, by dividing (A) the total amount receivable by the Company in
consideration of the issuance and sale of such Common Stock Equivalent,
plus the total consideration payable to the Company upon exercise,
conversion, or exchange thereof, by (B) the total number of shares of
Common Stock covered by such Common Stock Equivalent), that is lower
(calculated the date of such sale or issuance) than the Exercise Price, or
for no consideration. then:
<PAGE>
6
(i) in each case the number of shares of Common Stock thereafter
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant (whether or not
presently exercisable) shall be increased in a manner determined
by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of the Warrant by a fraction, of which the numerator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the sale or issuance plus the number of
additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or
purchase or to be issued upon conversion, exercise, or exchange
of such Common Stock Equivalent, and of which the denominator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the sale or issuance plus the number of
shares of Common Stock that the "aggregate consideration to be
received by the Company" (as defined below) in connection with
such sale or issuance would purchase at the Exercise Price. For
the purpose of such adjustments the "aggregate consideration to
be received by the Company" shall be the consideration received
by the Company for such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents,
plus any consideration or premiums stated in the Common Stock
Equivalents to be paid for the shares of Common Stock covered
thereby; and
(ii) in each case the Exercise Price will be reduced to the price
calculated by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before
such issuance or sale multiplied by the then existing Exercise
Price Plus (2) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by
the Company upon such issuance or sale, by (B) the total number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such
issuance or sale plus the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise, conversion, or exchange of any Common
Stock Equivalents issued or sold in the transaction for which the
Company is making this adjustment. If the Company shall issue or
sell shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for a
consideration consisting, in whole or in part, of property other
than cash or its equivalent, then in determining the "price per
share of Common Stock" and the "consideration" receivable by or
payable to the Company for purposes of this Section 6(c), the
Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in good faith,
the fair value of such property.
If the Company shall issue and sell Common Stock Equivalents, together
with one or more other securities as part of a unit at a price per unit,
then in determining the "price per share of Common Stock" and the
"consideration" receivable by or payable to the Company for purposes of
this Section 6(c), the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine,
in good faith, the fair value of the Common Stock Equivalents then being
sold as part of such unit.
<PAGE>
7
(d) If any event occurs as to which the preceding Sections 6(a)
through (c) are not strictly applicable, but as to which the failure to
make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and
principles of this Warrant, as determined by the Company or as requested by
the Holder in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 12, then, in
each such case, the Company shall select an independent investment bank or
firm of independent public accountants, such investment bank or firm of
independent public accountants to be selected from a group of three
nationally recognized investment banks or firms of public accountants
chosen by the Holder, which will give its opinion as to the adjustment, if
any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles
established in this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will
promptly deliver a copy of such opinion to the Holder and will make the
adjustments described in such opinion. The fees and expenses of such
investment bank or independent public accountants will be borne by the
Company. If the adjustment is requested by the Holder, however, and the
investment bank or firm of independent public accountants selected by the
Company pursuant to this paragraph determines that no adjustment is
necessary, then the fees and expenses described in the preceding sentence
shall be borne by the Holder.
(e) Notice to Holder of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Shares
purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price per Share
is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the
Holder within 5 days of such adjustment, in accordance with the provisions
of Section 12, notice setting forth the adjusted number of Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant and the adjusted Exercise
Price and showing in reasonable detail the computation of the adjustment
and the facts upon which such adjustment is based.
(f) Notices to Holder of Certain Events. If at any time after the date
hereof:
(i) the Company shall declare any dividend or other distribution upon
or with respect to the Common Stock, including any dividend
payable in cash, shares of Common Stock or other securities of
the Company; or
(ii) the Company shall offer for subscription to the holders of its
Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or any
other securities convertible into Common Stock or any rights to
subscribe thereto; or
(iii)there shall be any capital reorganization or reclassification of
the capital stock of the Company (other than a change in par
value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to
par value or as result of the subdivision or combination of
shares), or any conversion of the Shares into securities of
another corporation, or a sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company, or a consolidation or merger of the
Company with another corporation (other than a merger with a
subsidiary in which the Company is the continuing corporation and
which does not result in any reclassification or change of the
Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants); or
<PAGE>
8
(iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation, or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or
more of said cases, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the
Holder, not less than 15 days before any record date or other
date set for the definitive action, written notice of the date
upon which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall
be taken for purposes of such dividend, distribution or
subscription rights or upon which such reorganization,
reclassification, conversion, sale, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up shall take place, as the
case may be. Such notice shall also set forth facts as shall
indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may
be known at the date of such notice) on the number of Shares and
the kind and amount of the shares of stock and other securities
and property deliverable upon exercise of the Warrants. Such
notice shall also specify the date as of which the holder of
record of the shares of Common Stock shall participate in such
dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or shall be
entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities
or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, conversion, sale, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case may be (on
which date in the event of voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation, or winding up of the Company, the right to exercise
the Warrants shall terminate).
7. Piggy-Back Registration. (a) If the Company shall, at any time prior to
the expiration of this Warrant, authorize a registration of its Common Stock
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the Company shall
furnish the Holder with at least 30 days prior written notice thereof and the
Holder shall have the option to include the Shares to be issued to the Holder
upon the exercise of this Warrant in such registration statement. The Holder
shall exercise the "piggy-back registration rights" granted pursuant to this
Section 7 by giving written notice to the Company within 20 days of the receipt
of the written notice from the Company described above.
<PAGE>
9
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant, the Company's
obligations under this Section 7 shall be subject to the following terms
and conditions:
(i) The obligations of the Company set forth under this Section 7
shall not arise upon the filing of a registration statement that
covers any of the following: (A) securities proposed to be issued
in exchange for assets or securities of another corporation; (B)
debt securities not convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares
of Common Stock; (C) securities to be issued pursuant to a
transaction registered on Form S-4 (or any registration form
promulgated by the SEC in substitution of that form); or (D) a
stock option, stock bonus, stock purchase, or other employee
benefit or compensation plan or securities issued or issuable
pursuant to any such plan.
(ii) If the Company files a registration statement in connection with
an underwritten public offering of Common Stock the Company shall
use its best efforts to cause the managing underwriter of the
proposed offering to grant any request by the Holder that Shares
purchased by the Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant be
included in the proposed public offering on terms and conditions
that are customary under industry practice. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter of
the public offering of the Common Stock gives written notice to
the Company that, in the reasonable opinion of such managing
underwriter, marketing factors require a limitation of the total
number of shares of Common Stock to be underwritten, then the
number of Shares purchased by the Holder upon the exercise of
this Warrant that the Company shall be obligated to include in
the registration statement shall be reduced in accordance with
the limitations imposed by the managing underwriter.
(iii)The Holder must provide to the Company all information, and take
all action, the Parent reasonably requests with reasonable
advance notice, to enable it to comply with any applicable law or
regulation or to prepare the registration statement that will
cover the Shares that will be included in the registration.
(c) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses (as defined below)
in connection with the registration of the Shares pursuant to this Section
7. For purposes of this Warrant, the term "Registration Expenses" shall
mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with this Section 7,
including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, exchange
listing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company, state Blue Sky fees and expenses, transfer agent fees, cost of
engraving of stock certificates, costs for mailing and tombstone
advertising, cost of preparing the registration statement, related
exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto, underwriting documents,
selected dealer agreements, preliminary and final prospectuses, and the
expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such
registration, but excluding underwriting discounts and selling commissions
attributable to the Shares and the fees and expenses of the Holder's own
counsel and accountants. which shall be borne by the Holder.
<PAGE>
10
8. Indemnification and Notification.
(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Holder from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities
caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement or contained in a prospectus furnished thereunder or
caused by any omission to state a material fact necessary to make any
statement therein not misleading. The foregoing indemnification and
agreement to hold harmless shall not apply, however, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities are caused by an untrue
statement or omissions based upon information furnished in writing to the
Company by the Holder expressly for use in any registration statement or
prospectus.
(b) The Holder will indemnify the Company, and each person who
controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, and liabilities
caused by an untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement or contained in a prospectus furnished thereunder or
caused by an omission to state a material fact necessary to make any
statement therein not misleading insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
expenses, and liabilities are caused by an untrue statement or omission
based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by the Holder
expressly for use in any registration statement or prospectus.
(c) Each indemnified party promptly shall notify each indemnifying
party of any claim asserted or action commenced against it that is subject
to the indemnification provisions of this Section, but failure to so notify
an indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any
liability pursuant to these indemnity provisions or otherwise, unless and
only to the extent that the failure materially prejudices the rights or
obligations of the indemnifying party. Without limiting what might be
materially prejudicial to an indemnifying party, the failure of an
indemnified party to notify an indemnifying party of a lawsuit within ten
days after the date when the indemnified party is served with a copy of the
complaint, petition, or other pleading asserting the indemnifiable claim
will be considered materially prejudicial to the rights and obligations of
any indemnifying party who was not also served with a copy of the
complaint, petition, or other pleading asserting the indemnifiable claim.
<PAGE>
11
The indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the
defense, or, if the indemnifying party so elects within a reasonable time,
the indemnifying party may assume the defense, of any action commenced
against the indemnified party that is the subject of indemnification under
this Section. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of an
indemnified action, however, the indemnifying party shall engage to defend
the action legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.
If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of any indemnified
action, the indemnified party, and each controlling person who is a
defendant in the action, will be entitled to employ separate counsel
participate in the defense of the action at its own expense.
An indemnified party shall not settle an indemnified claim or action
without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party and the
indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement made without its
consent. The indemnifying party shall notify the indemnified party whether
or not it will consent to a proposed settlement within ten days after it
receives from the indemnified party notice of the proposed settlement,
summarizing all the terms and conditions of settlement. The indemnifying
party's failure to notify the indemnified party within that ten-day period
whether or not it consents to the proposed settlement will constitute its
consent to the proposed settlement.
This indemnity does not apply to any untrue statement or omission, or
any alleged untrue statement or omission that was made in a preliminary
prospectus but remedied or eliminated in the final prospectus (including
any amendment or supplement to it), if a copy of the definitive prospectus
(including any amendment or supplement to it) was delivered to the person
asserting the claim at or before the time required by the Securities Act
and the delivery of the definitive prospectus (including any amendment or
supplement to it) constitutes a defense to the claim asserted by the
person.
9. No Impairment. The Company will not by any action including, without
limitation, amending or permitting the amendment of the charter documents,
bylaws, or similar instruments of the Company or through any reorganization,
reclassification, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, share exchange,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other similar voluntary action,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the express terms
of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out
of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be reasonably
necessary to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment or dilution.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) take all
such action as may be necessary in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon exercise
of the Warrant, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities, and claims
and (ii) use all reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations,
exemptions, or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction over
the Company as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations
under this Warrant.
<PAGE>
12
10. Dilution Fee. If, during the Exercise Period, the Company pays any cash
dividends or makes any cash distribution to any holder of any class of its
Common Stock with respect to such Common Stock and the Exercise Price exceeds
the Market Price, then the Holder of this Warrant will be entitled to receive in
respect of this Warrant a dilution fee in cash (the "Dilution Fee") on the date
of payment of such dividend or distribution, which Dilution Fee will be equal to
the amount per share paid to the holders of Common Stock times the number of
Shares currently exercisable under this Warrant.
11. Survival. The various rights and obligations of the Holder and of the
Company as set forth in Sections 4 and 5 hereof shall survive the exercise of
this Warrant and the surrender of this instrument upon such exercise.
12. Notice. All notices required by this Warrant to be given or made by the
Company shall be given or made by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed
to the registered Holder hereof at the address of such Holder as shown on the
books of the Company.
13. Loss or Destruction. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
and, in the case of any loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company
and its counsel, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
14. Miscellaneous.
(a) Neither this Warrant nor any term hereof may be changed, waived,
discharged, or terminated except by a written instrument executed by the
Company and the Holder.
<PAGE>
13
(b) This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in
accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Florida, without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws thereof.
(c) Each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such a
manner as to be effective, valid, and enforceable under applicable law, but
if any provision of this Warrant is held to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such
provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity,
illegality, or unenforceability in such jurisdiction, without invalidating
the remainder of this Warrant in such jurisdiction or any provision hereof
in any other jurisdiction.
(d) No course of dealing or delay or failure to exercise any right
hereunder on the part of the Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right
or otherwise prejudice the Holder's rights, power, or remedies.
(e) The Company shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection
with, and all documentary stamp and other taxes (other than stock transfer
taxes) and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of,
the issue, sale and delivery of this Warrant and the Shares issuable upon
the exercise hereof.
(f) This Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company
and the successors and permitted assigns of the Holder.
15. Further Assurances. The Company agrees that it will execute and record
such documents as the Holder shall reasonably request to secure for the Holder
any of the rights represented by this Warrant. IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Company
has caused this Warrant to be executed by its duly authorized officer as of the
16th day of October, 1998.
