ITEM 5. Other Matters.
- ------- -------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to a partnership interest purchase agreement (the
"Partnership Interest Purchase Agreement") entered into on December 4, 1998, the
Registrant's wholly-owned subsidiary, PCN HP Venture Corp.("HP") sold its
partnership interest in HealthMatics G.P. ("HealthMatics")(formerly known as
HealthPoint G. P.) to GW Acquisition Corp., a subsidiary of Glaxo Wellcome Inc.
("Glaxo") for consideration consisting of $4,619,103.25 in cash and the
forgiveness of $380,896.75 owed to HealthMatics by the Registrant and HP.
HealthMatics was a joint venture created by the Registrant and Glaxo in 1996 to,
among other things, develop and market electronic clinical information systems.
The Registrant initiated and elected to enter into the transactions contemplated
by the Partnership Interest Purchase Agreement in order to, among other things,
permit the Registrant to focus more of its development efforts on its core
practice management software business. However, through both its direct sales
force and its own network of value added resellers, the Registrant will continue
to serve as a value-added reseller and distributor of HealthMatics' products and
continue to support its existing base of users of the HealthMatics' products. As
a result of the sale of HP's partnership interest in HealthMatics, the
Registrant will no longer have any obligation to continue to fund HealthMatics
operations.
Contemporaneously with the execution of the Partnership
Interest Purchase Agreement, the Registrant entered into definitive
documentation with the Registrant's senior lenders to, among other things,
extend the maturity date of the Registrant's senior indebtedness from September
30, 1998 until June 30, 1999. In accordance with the agreements with the
lenders, the Registrant: (i) repaid $750,000 of the outstanding principal amount
of its senior debt; (ii) paid the lenders an extension fee of $250,000; (iii)
agreed to pay the lenders an additional fee of $1,000,000 upon the maturity of
the indebtedness; and (iv) deposited $1,000,000 of the proceeds of the sale of
the HealthMatics interest in a cash collateral account maintained by Fleet Bank,
N.A., as agent for the senior lenders, which sum will be released to the
Registrant on April 30, 1999 if certain conditions are satisfied.

10.12 CREDIT AGREEMENT.
Except as amended or modified by this Agreement and the First
Forbearance Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect in accordance with its original terms, provided, however, in the event
that there is any inconsistency between this Agreement and any of the Additional
Loan Documents and the Credit Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement and
the Additional Loan Documents shall control.
10.13 COUNTERPARTS.
This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this
Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and
all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and
the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the
parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
10.14 ENFORCEABILITY; USURY.
In no event shall any provision of this Agreement, the Credit
Agreement, the Notes, or any other instrument evidencing or securing the
indebtedness of the Borrower hereunder ever obligate the Borrower to pay or
allow any Lender to collect interest on the Notes or any other indebtedness of
the Borrower hereunder at a rate greater than the maximum non-usurious rate
permitted by applicable law (herein referred to as the "Highest Lawful Rate"),
or obligate the Borrower to pay any taxes, assessments, charges, insurance
premiums or other amounts to the extent that such payments, when added to the
interest payable on the Notes, would be held to constitute the payment by the
Borrower of interest at a rate greater
-21-
<PAGE>
than the Highest Lawful Rate; and this provision shall control over any
provision to the contrary.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event the
maturity of all or any part of the principal amount of the indebtedness of the
Borrower hereunder shall be accelerated for any reason, then such principal
amount so accelerated shall be credited with any interest theretofore paid
thereon in advance and remaining unearned at the time of such acceleration. If,
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the Notes, any
funds are applied to the payment of any part of the principal amount of the
indebtedness of the Borrower hereunder prior to the maturity thereof, then (a)
any interest which would otherwise thereafter accrue on the principal amount so
paid by such application shall be canceled, and (b) the indebtedness of the
Borrower hereunder remaining unpaid after such application shall be credited
with the amount of all interest, if any, theretofore collected on the principal
amount so paid by such application and remaining unearned at the date of said
application; and if the funds so applied shall be sufficient to pay in full all
the indebtedness of the Borrower hereunder, then the Lenders shall refund to the
Borrower all interest theretofore paid thereon in advance and remaining unearned
at the time of such acceleration. Regardless of any other provision in this
Agreement, the Credit Agreement or in any of the written evidences of the
indebtedness of the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall never be required to
pay any unearned interest on such indebtedness or any portion thereof, and shall
never be required to pay interest thereon at a rate in excess of the Highest
Lawful Rate construed by courts having competent jurisdiction thereof.
