ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Mediware Information Systems, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the
"COMPANY" or "Mediware") was incorporated in 1980. The COMPANY develops, sells
and supports computer-based management information systems for use in various
clinical departments of hospitals. The systems are designed to automate the data
these departments provide hospital management and therefore increase
productivity, reduce operating costs, enhance revenues and improve quality
assurance and patient care. These benefits are of critical importance to
hospital administrators who face increasing financial and regulatory pressures.
At present, the COMPANY offers systems for three different departments: the
blood bank, the pharmacy and the surgical suite. The installed base of clinical
information systems is approximately 825 clients.
See "Financial Statements" for information about the COMPANY's
revenues, operating profit and loss and assets. The COMPANY's operations are
within one industry segment.
The COMPANY's Product Lines are managed through three operating
divisions: Hemocare Division (blood bank), Pharmacy Division, Digimedics and
Pharmakon (pharmacy), and Surgiware Division (surgical suite).
Product Lines
HEMOCARE -- The COMPANY's cornerstone product is one of North America's
leading "best of breed" blood bank information systems and is sold either
"stand-alone" or as part of an integrated "LAB/Blood Bank" system. The system
was originally designed in collaboration with Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer
Center in New York City. Hemocare's software programs are organized into
subsystems performing over 200 functions of which the major ones (a) manage and
control blood inventory; (b) perform long-term donor and transfusion record
keeping; (c) store and manage characteristics of blood products to be
transfused; (d) maintain patient and transfusion records; (e) maintain the
records of patient test results; and (f) automate billing and workload
recording.
Hemocare's core technology is the UNIX operating system and the "C"
programming language, allowing it to run on multiple hardware platforms. Current
versions of the system are ported to the IBM RS/6000 as well as Intel PC
technologies. The scalability of these platforms allows Hemocare to address the
needs of virtually any size hospital. Hemocare markets innovative product
enhancements such as Validation Templates, Video Validation, Standard
Integration Module, and Mock Regulatory Inspection. At this time Hemocare is the
only Blood Bank System to offer this suite of products which assist customers in
their efforts to remain compliant with regulatory agency guidelines. The
Standard Integration Module was instrumental in the growth of laboratory vendors
who have integrated and remarketed this product. The COMPANY currently has
remarketing agreements with HBO and Company, Citation Computer Systems, Inc.,
Dynamic Healthcare Technologies, Inc., Keane, Inc., NLFC, Inc., and Shared
Medical Systems, Inc.
The Hemocare system is installed in approximately 260 hospitals which
range in size from 100 beds to over 1,600 beds.
PHARMACY -- In May of 1990, the COMPANY acquired Digimedics
Corporation, one of the country's leading vendors of information management
systems for hospital pharmacies. Digimedics had been developing and selling
products and services to hospital pharmacies since 1976. In the mid-1980's,
Digimedics introduced the first open systems version of a comprehensive pharmacy
information management system. Digimedics Corporation is a wholly owned
subsidiary of the COMPANY. Over 150 Digimedics systems have been installed at
125 hospitals (some hospitals have separate systems for inpatient and outpatient
pharmacies).
In June of 1996, Digimedics Corporation acquired certain assets of the
U.S. based Pharmakon division ("Pharmakon") and a pharmacy management system
company operating in the United Kingdom, JAC Computer Service, LTD. ("JAC") of
Continental Healthcare Systems, Inc. ("Continental"). The Pharmakon operation
has been subsequently merged with the Digimedics operation to form the Pharmacy
Division of the COMPANY. The combination of client bases has increased the
COMPANY's installed base of clinical information systems to approximately 825
(over 500 of which are pharmacy system installations). Installations which were
already in existence in Canada together with the addition of the JAC client base
provide the COMPANY with a significant international presence.
Clients include leading research institutions such as the University of
California Medical Center, San Francisco; Mt. Sinai Hospital, New York City;
Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center, New York City; University of Kansas
Medical Center, Kansas City; University of Michigan Hospitals and Clinics, Ann
Arbor; Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center, Toronto; and the Royal Free Hospital,
London.
During fiscal 1997, the Pharmacy Division introduced a new
client/server pharmacy system known as Digimedics WORx(TM). This advanced system
features a Microsoft Windows-based graphical user interface, point-and-click
ad-hoc report writing, integrated inpatient/outpatient profiles, and a
relational database management system. The COMPANY believes this system will be
a major factor in the next generation of drug therapy management systems.
Installation of this next generation system began in Fiscal 1997.
Other WORx features include:
A Cinical database and drug monographs (including foreign language
monographs). An extensive array of drug therapy monitoring including
drug interactions, allergy monitoring, dose range checking, therapeutic
duplication, and drug alerts. A reporting system that may be tailored
to local practice standards. Support for multiple drug delivery
mechanisms. Extensive integration with financial systems, other
clinical systems, and robotics.
By taking advantage of its open architecture, WORx is capable of
linking with expert systems, decision-support software, and clinical databases.
WORx acts as the central hub for drug therapy information throughout the
healthcare enterprise and will provide specialized tools for all aspects of
pharmaceutical care.
WORx can adapt to a diversity of hardware and networking environments.
Utilizing technologies such as UNIX, Powerbuilder, C++ programming language,
Informix Online Dynamic Server, Microsoft Windows, Windows 95, NT and Microsoft
ActiveX(TM), WORx is positioned as a state of the art client/server solution.
SURGIWARE -- In September 1990 the COMPANY licensed the right to market
and relicense the Surgiware system for use in surgical suites. Surgiware is a
comprehensive information system for managing the human resources, facilities,
equipment and supplies required for surgery. The Surgiware system integrates
clinical data capture, inventory and equipment control, scheduling, quality
assurance, and report writing. For example, the system contains a program that
presents a proprietary, real-time moving schedule on a color graphics display
allowing the user to visually identify potential scheduling conflicts based upon
what is happening in the surgical suite at the moment and to test alternative
solutions on the system. The core of the system is in its unique ability to
gather and disseminate data at the point of care, providing unique advantages to
hospitals in need of timely, accurate data on their surgical activities.
Additional modules and functions can be added, such as a clinical data module
that keeps track of all aspects of a patient's treatment, including
pre-operative and post-operative control. The COMPANY has recently introduced
PCCWIN, a Windows 95 based module that automates the preoperative case charting
process.
The benefits of a fully-implemented system include (a) improvement in
the efficiency and output of operating rooms; (b) improvement in the management
of staffing, equipment, and supplies; (c) improvement in inventory controls; and
(d) incremental billings resulting from procedures that, without Surgiware,
might be overlooked for billing purposes because they either were unplanned or
fall outside the billing category for the planned procedure. Surgiware also
integrates clinical data capture, and equipment control, scheduling, quality
assurance and report writing. These benefits can translate into significant
revenues and savings, since, usually, the surgical suite produces more revenue
than any other department and is the greatest cost center in the hospital. The
record keeping functions of Surgiware can also be of significant benefit in the
areas of quality assurance, risk management, and the accreditation of
physicians.
Surgiware uses the UNIX operating system, the "C" programming language,
the INFORMIX SQL 4th generation relational database manager, and a
fault-tolerant architecture that allows the personal computer that is placed in
each operating room to operate independently in the event of a failure of the
central Surgiware computer. The system has been ported to the IBM RS-6000 and
the Data General AViiON series and to 386, 486, and Pentium IBM compatible
personal computers.
<PAGE>
The COMPANY's marketing is concentrated on approximately 1,000
hospitals that have more than 300 beds and 10 operating rooms, where studies
indicate that approximately 80% of all surgical services in this country are
performed. The COMPANY has installed 25 Surgiware sites.
Sales and Marketing
The COMPANY's three products are sold directly by nine full-time sales
people, as well as four COMPANY officers, with the assistance of seven clinical
specialists who demonstrate the systems and address technical questions. Sales
leads and support are received from certain hardware manufacturers, especially
IBM Corporation and Data General Corporation, for whose product the COMPANY acts
as a Value Added Reseller. The COMPANY's products are also sold increasingly
through remarketers who are vendors of laboratory and other information systems
that offer COMPANY systems as subsystems of their product. The COMPANY has
entered into agreements with vendors such as HBO and COMPANY (for both STAR and
ALS product lines), Citation Computer Systems, Inc., Dynacor, Inc., Keane, Inc.,
NLFC, Inc., Shared Medical Systems, Inc., Triple G, and Dynamic Healthcare
Technologies, Inc..
Software Support and Hardware Maintenance Services
The COMPANY provides comprehensive service to its installed base of
customers through its own service organization. Virtually all of the COMPANY's
customers enter into software support agreements with either the COMPANY or its
resellers which are renewed annually or at longer intervals, but, in the case of
former Pharmakon customers, may be canceled by either party on 60 days notice.
These agreements generally provide for 24-hour access to customer support staff,
as well as periodic product enhancements and a limited product warranty for
which the customer pays a monthly or annual fee subject to cancellation after a
specified notice period. Some of the COMPANY's customers have also entered into
agreements for hardware maintenance, which the COMPANY generally subcontracts to
the hardware manufacturers.
HEMOCARE and DIGIMEDICS are trademarks of the COMPANY and its
subsidiary, Digimedics Corporation, respectively.
Competition
The competition in the market for clinical information systems is
intense. The principal competitive factors are the functionality of the system,
its design and capabilities, site references, reputation for ongoing support,
the potential for enhancements, price and salesmanship. Different dynamics and
competitors, however, affect each of the COMPANY's products.
HEMOCARE -- The COMPANY currently competes principally with one other
specialty vendor of stand-alone blood bank systems (Informedics, Inc.), which is
a company of comparable size, and with three vendors (Cerner Corporation,
Sunquest Information Systems, Inc. and Soft Computer Consultants) of laboratory
information systems ("LIS") that contain a blood bank subsystem. The LIS vendors
are much larger companies with greater technical, marketing,
financial and other resources than the COMPANY and have established reputations
for success in developing and selling hospital information systems.
DIGIMEDICS -- The COMPANY currently competes with numerous companies,
including some of the leading vendors of healthcare information systems. With
the acquisition of Pharmakon, the COMPANY believes that it has the largest
number of stand-alone hospital pharmacy systems in its market. Many competitors
have established reputations for success in developing and selling medical
information systems and have far greater resources than the COMPANY. The
principal competitors of the Digimedics system are believed to be Cerner
Corporation, BDM Corp., HCS Corp., and Pharmacy Computer Systems, Inc., as well
as numerous providers of complete healthcare information systems.
SURGIWARE -- The competitors of Surgiware have significantly larger
installed bases and have substantially greater technical, marketing, financial
and other resources than the COMPANY and have established reputations for
success in developing and selling hospital information systems. The principal
vendors competing with the Surgiware division are believed to be Serving
Software Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of HBO Company, Enterprise
Systems Incorporated and Atwork Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Medaphis Corporation.
Copyright, Patents and Trade Secrets
The COMPANY has relied primarily on copyright, trade secret protection
and confidentiality agreements for protection of its software systems. Certain
features of the Surgiware Division are covered by a patent held by the licensor.
Government Regulation
The hospitals that comprise the primary market for the COMPANY's
products must comply with various federal, state and local statutes and
regulations. The adequacy of blood bank information management and record
keeping is subject to inspection and review by the FDA. Hemocare and other blood
bank systems are also subject to regulation by the FDA as medical devices.
Consequently, the COMPANY and its competitors who provide blood bank information
management systems are also subject to the jurisdiction of the FDA as suppliers
of medical devices. The COMPANY has dedicated substantial time and resources in
its attempts to comply with applicable guidelines and regulations and believes
that it is in substantial compliance therewith.
Hemocare experienced its first regular on-site FDA inspection in July,
1997. The Agency recommended minor changes to the in-house developed call
tracking system to allow for a more precise method of problem identification,
tracking and trending. These changes were put into practice on August 1, 1997.
The COMPANY had previously identified a notice of system limitation which it
updated in its user manual. This change to "documentation" was considered a
labeling change by the FDA and is therefore classified as a "recall." However, a
labeling recall does not require the customer to discontinue its use of the
system. The vendor is required to update its medical device documentation with a
more accurate description of its intended use. The Hemocare Product Center had
already complied with this as part of its normal Good Manufacturing Practices at
the time of its initial notification to customers in July.
The FDA is in the process of developing new guidelines that it intends
to apply to blood bank information systems and to the inspection of vendors of
such systems. The COMPANY cannot predict whether it will be in compliance with
these new guidelines or any future guidelines, regulations or inspection
procedures. Non-compliance with any such guidelines, regulations or procedures
could have a material adverse effect on the operations of vendors of blood bank
information systems including the COMPANY. Any of the COMPANY's other activities
could also become subject to Congressional or governmental agency efforts to
establish or expand governmental agency jurisdiction.
Miscellaneous
The COMPANY software development costs were $2,155,000 during fiscal
1997 and $1,438,000 in fiscal 1996. These costs included write downs and
amortization of software development costs. In addition, software costs of
$929,000 and $496,000, respectively, were capitalized in each year. The COMPANY
anticipates that it will continue to commit substantial resources to software
development in the future. Furthermore, the COMPANY purchased $3,891,000 of
research and development in the acquisition of Pharmakon and JAC, which was
charged to operations expense in fiscal 1996.
The COMPANY's business is not dependent on a single customer or a few
customers. The COMPANY considers that its market area and customer base is
United States, Canada and, through JAC Computer Services, LTD, in the U.K.
Employees
As of June 30, 1997, the COMPANY had 123 full-time employees and 10
part-time employees, including 24 in sales and marketing, 88 in customer support
and product development, and 21 in administration. None is represented by a
labor union and the COMPANY considers its employee relations to be good.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The COMPANY's corporate headquarters are in Melville, New York, where
the COMPANY occupies approximately 5,738 square feet under a lease that expires
on July 31, 1998. The Digimedics Division is headquartered in Scotts Valley,
California, where the COMPANY occupies approximately 11,646 square feet under a
lease expiring May 1, 2001. The Pharmakon Division is headquartered in Overland
Park, Kansas, where the COMPANY occupies approximately 13,683 square feet under
a lease expiring September 30, 1998. The United Kingdom group is head quartered
in Basildon, Essex, where the COMPANY occupies approximately 2,567 square feet
under a lease expiring September 26, 2004. The COMPANY believes that its
facilities are adequate for its current needs and that, if necessary, it will
have no difficulty in securing alternate facilities at the expiration of its
current leases.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The COMPANY is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in
the ordinary course of business. In addition, Mediware Information Systems,
Inc., ("Mediware") its wholly owned subsidiary, Digimedics, and Continental have
been named as co-defendants in a litigation, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center vs.
Mediware Information Systems, Inc. et al, commenced on March 26, 1997 in Los
Angeles County Superior Court. The litigation arises out of a contract between
Continental and the customer, under which Continental was to install certain
computer equipment and software. The plaintiff alleges that computer equipment
and software were not operational, and that the contract the plaintiff had with
Continental was assigned without its consent to Digimedics when it acquired
Continental's Pharmakon Division (See Note J and H to the Financial Statements).
The plaintiff also alleges that Digimedics failed to honor the contract and that
Mediware did not fulfill its promise to install and support the software as
prescribed in the contract. The plaintiff's claims against Digimedics are for
breach of contract, intentional interference with contract, and negligent
interference with contract. The plaintiff's claims against Mediware are for
promissory estoppel, intentional interference with contract, and negligent
interference with contract. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified compensatory,
consequential, and punitive damages. Management believes that the claims against
the COMPANY are without merit and is vigorously opposing those claims, however,
the outcome is presently undeterminable. In the opinion of management, the
amount of potential liability with respect to the above actions will not
materially affect the COMPANY's financial position or results of operations. The
COMPANY is not aware of any proceedings contemplated by government authorities
that would have a material adverse affect on the COMPANY or its business.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
The COMPANY did not submit any matter to a vote of its security holders
during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year ended June 30, 1997.
<PAGE>
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED
STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The COMPANY's Common Stock is traded in the over the counter market and
is quoted on the Nasdaq Small Cap market ("Nasdaq") under the symbol MEDW. It is
also traded on the Pacific Stock Exchange under the symbol MIS. Prior to August
1991, there was no established trading market for the COMPANY's Common Stock.
The table below indicates the high and low of quoted bid market prices
as reported by Nasdaq for the COMPANY's Common Stock for each quarter during the
fiscal years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997.

Such over-the-counter quotations reflect intra-dealers prices, without
retail mark-ups, mark downs or commissions, and may not represent actual
transactions.
The reported trading volume is low. As of June 30, 1997, the
approximate number of shareholders of record of the COMPANY's Common Stock was
300.
The listing maintenance standards of Nasdaq include a net tangible
assets test which will become effective at the end of a phase-in period. The
COMPANY believes that it meets the test by a small margin. The Pacific Stock
Exchange ("PSE"), on which the Common Stock also is listed, has imposed new
listing maintenance criteria based on net worth and tangible net assets. The
COMPANY does not meet the new criteria; however, the PSE has granted the COMPANY
a phase-in compliance period, until the end of 1997. If the COMPANY does not
meet the new criteria of the PSE after the extended compliance period, it is
subject to being delisted. If both listings are terminated because of failure to
meet the applicable criteria, the liquidity for the COMPANY's Common Stock will
be severely impaired in the absence of the development of a meaningful
alternative to Nasdaq.
Dividend Policy
The COMPANY has never paid dividends on its Common Stock and has no
present intention to pay cash dividends on its Common Stock. Earnings, if any,
will be used to finance the development and continued expansion of the COMPANY's
business.
<PAGE>
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In June of 1996, Digimedics Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the COMPANY, purchased the Pharmakon division and JAC, a U.K. affiliate, from
Continental Healthcare Systems, Inc. ("Continental"). The total purchase price,
net of acquisition costs, was approximately $9.7 million, $3.7 million of which
was paid in cash and the remaining $6.0 million of which was satisfied pursuant
to a promissory note issued to Continental, originally due November 30, 1996. On
October 28, 1996 the promissory note was amended, providing among other things,
an extension of the due date to August 1, 1997. The promissory note was further
amended, effective July 21, 1997, to provide for a reduced principal amount to
$4,196,000 and extended payment terms. The second amendment requires quarterly
principal payments of $150,000 commencing October 31, 1997, with the balance due
November 30, 1998, or earlier based upon a change in control or refinancing by
the COMPANY and a reduction in the interest rate to 8.5% payable monthly. The
COMPANY will review the financing needs of this promissory note and general cash
requirements on an ongoing basis. It is expected that the COMPANY will require
additional sources of liquidity to fund the payment of this promissory note
along with other financing needs including potential acquisitions.
The COMPANY entered into a service agreement with Continental as of the
acquisition date which requires the COMPANY to perform functions in satisfying
various in-process customer contracts, collection of Continental accounts
receivables and other activities related to fulfilling post-acquisition
Continental obligations. The service agreement provided that the COMPANY would
retain 30% of the monies collected on the receivables which the COMPANY services
plus $1,237,000. In connection with the amendment to the promissory note, the
service agreement with Continental was also amended on July 21, 1997. The
amended service agreement allows the COMPANY to retain 100% of accounts
receivable amounts collected after the amendment date which had not been
invoiced by Continental prior to the acquisition date. The promissory note was
reduced by $437,000 (to $4,196,000) through the application of the amount owing
from Continental to the COMPANY for completed services in accordance with the
service agreement. Total fiscal 1997 revenues recorded from this service
agreement approximate $1.2 million.
To finance the cash portion of the acquisition, the COMPANY made a
private placement of 1,692,308 shares of its Common Stock in June of 1996, at a
price of $3.25 per share, for total proceeds before expenses of $5,500,000.
Total expense for the June 1996 private placement aggregate $568,000. In order
to provide for general cash needs, the COMPANY completed in August, 1997, a
private placement of its securities. The COMPANY sold 400,000 shares of its
Common Stock for $6.00 per share and issued warrants to purchase 40,000 shares
of Common Stock at $6.00 per share (as part of its placement fee). The COMPANY
has agreed to register the shares sold in the private placement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Total proceeds before expenses were
$2,400,000. Expenses of the August 1997 private placement and registration of
the securities are estimated to be approximately $310,000.
The COMPANY's cash and cash equivalent position at June 30, 1997 was
$1,935,000, a decrease of $569,000 from fiscal year end 1996. At June 30, 1997
the net working capital was $2,487,000 and the current ratio was 1:4-1. The
impact of the August, 1997 private placement on the COMPANY's cash and working
capital position is shown (as if it had occurred on June 30, 1997) on an
unaudited Pro Forma balance sheet in the financial statements (see Note M to the
Financial Statements). The Pro Forma cash and cash equivalent position is
$4,025,000; the pro-forma net working capital was $4,577,000 and the Pro Forma
working capital ratio was 1.7 to 1. The Pro Forma balances are not prospective
information. Actual cash and working capital amounts at the time of the private
placement may differ significantly from such Pro Forma amounts.
In order to cover its cash needs during fiscal years 1994 and 1995, the
COMPANY carried out financing programs under which it borrowed an aggregate of
$1,299,000 from investors, including directors. As part of the financing package
such investors received promissory notes along with 1,040,025 warrants to
purchase shares of common stock, exercisable at $0.50 per share and 129,695
warrants exercisable at $1.25 per share. During fiscal year 1996, the COMPANY
repaid $120,000, leaving a balance of $1,179,000. In May of 1996, some of the
investors exercised 495,025 of the $0.50 warrants for a total of $247,512.50. A
portion of these funds was used by the COMPANY for the acquisition of Pharmakon
and JAC. In September of 1997, $325,000 of the $1,179,000 balance was repaid to
individuals whose notes were not subordinate to the Continental promissory note.
Effective September 15, 1997 these note holders agreed to reduce the interest on
this unpaid amount from 12% to 9% leaving the unpaid balance of $854,000 owing
to two directors and another person.
The COMPANY has procured a line of credit from a bank in the total sum
of $75,000. As of June 30, 1997, there were no balances outstanding under this
facility.
Material Changes in Results of Operations: Fiscal 1997 vs. Fiscal 1996
Total revenue increased by $8,087,000 or 78% from $10,432,000 in fiscal
1996 to $18,519,000 in fiscal 1997. The increase is primarily attributable to
the Pharmakon and JAC acquisition ("Acquisition"). Pharmakon and JAC contributed
$163,000 or less than one month in revenue in fiscal 1996 and $7,547,000 for a
full year in fiscal 1997.
System sales increased by $448,000 or 8% from $5,781,000 to $6,229,000
in fiscal 1997. Pharmakon and JAC system sales increased $1,361,000 in fiscal
1997 from the prior year. The sales increase from the Acquisition was offset
primarily from a decrease in Hemocare system sales. Hemocare shifted pricing
focus from initial system dollar revenue to increased long-term maintenance and
support service revenue.
Service revenues increased 164% or $7,639,000 in fiscal 1997 vs. fiscal
1996. Service revenue increases in fiscal 1997 vs. fiscal 1996 were principally
due to the Pharmakon and JAC Acquisition, which recorded an increase of
$6,023,000. Additionally, Hemocare service revenues increased by $1,018,000 in
fiscal 1997 over the prior year due largely to a focused marketing emphasis on
increasing service revenues.
Cost of systems includes the cost of computer hardware and sublicensed
software purchased from computer and software manufacturers for delivery to
clients along with related transportation costs. As a percentage of related
sales, cost of systems increased 4% from 35% in fiscal 1996 to 39% in fiscal
1997. This increase reflects a higher proportion of third party software and
computer hardware in fiscal 1997 vs. fiscal 1996 which is sold at lower gross
margins than company produced product sales.
Cost of services include salaries of client service personnel,
communications expenses, unreimbursed travel, and training expenses along with
related office and other direct expenses. Cost of Services increased $1,510,000
or 108% in fiscal 1997 as compared to fiscal 1996. As a percentage of service
revenue, cost of services decreased 6% from 30% in fiscal 1996 to 24% in fiscal
1997. The increase in expense is principally due to the Acquisition. Due to the
relatively fixed staffing and other expense within cost of services, the
increase in corresponding service revenues resulted in higher gross margins.
Software development costs include salaries, documentation, office and
other expenses incurred in product development along with amortization of
software development costs. Software development costs increased 50% or $717,000
in fiscal 1997 vs. fiscal 1996. This increase is primarily the result of the
Pharmakon and JAC acquisition. Pharmakon and JAC development expenses were
$761,000 in fiscal 1997 and $21,000 in fiscal 1996 (from under one month of
activity in fiscal 1996). Total expenditures for software development, including
both capitalized and non-capitalized portions for fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996
were $2,591,000 and $1,452,000. These amounts exclude amortization. Capitalized
software cost additions were $929,000 and $496,000 for fiscal 1997 and fiscal
1996 respectively. The increase in the percentage of costs capitalized is
primarily due to WORx product software development. The WORx development project
reached technical feasibility in early fiscal 1997. During fiscal 1996, the
COMPANY recorded a charge to operations of $3,891,000 for acquired research and
development from the Pharmakon acquisition. There was no such charge in fiscal
1997. Management expects continued increases in software development in the
future.
Selling, general and administrative expenses include marketing and
sales salaries, commissions, travel and advertising expenses. Also included is
bad debt expense; legal, accounting and professional fees; salaries and bonus
expenses for corporate, divisional, financial and administrative staffs;
utilities, rent, communications and other office expenses; and other related
direct administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased 66% or $3,253,000 from $4,960,000 in fiscal 1996 to $8,213,000 in
fiscal 1997. The Pharmakon and JAC acquisition accounted for the majority, or
$2,924,000, of this increase.
Net interest expense increased $457,000 or 226.% from $202,000 in
fiscal 1996 to $659,000 in fiscal 1997. This increase is primarily due to the
promissory note issued in connection with the Acquisition.
In fiscal years ended 1997 and 1996 the COMPANY reported income tax of
$85,000 and $6,000 or an effective rate of 3.9% in fiscal 1997 (fiscal 1996 was
a loss year). Income tax for both years has principally been state and local.
The COMPANY utilized net operating loss carry forwards in fiscal 1997 (see note
I to the Financial Statements). The COMPANY has a deferred tax asset of
$3,781,000 at June 30, 1997 which is fully reserved as the likelihood of its
future utilization cannot be presently determined. Future utilization of the
deferred tax asset is dependent upon the COMPANY's future profitability as well
as the outcome of various acquisition and other strategies and planned increased
software development activities both of which management expects will result in
future tax deductions reducing or eliminating any taxable income.
The COMPANY had net earnings of $2,081,000 or $0.35 per share in fiscal
1997. In fiscal 1996, the COMPANY's reported net (loss) of ($3,491,000) or
($1.24) per share, which included $3,891,000 of acquired research and
development write-downs.

Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1997
MEDIWARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTE A - THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mediware
Information Systems, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Digimedics
Corporation ("Digimedics") and its subsidiary J.A.C. Computer Services Limited
("JAC"). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Mediware Information Systems, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") develops,
installs and maintains computerized information systems for hospital blood
banks, pharmacies and surgical suites.
[1] Cash equivalents:
The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased
with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
[2] Revenue recognition:
Revenues are derived primarily from the sale of clinical information
systems along with related service activities. Service activities
generally include installation, training, maintenance, and support. The
Company also derives revenue from the sale of computer hardware.
System sales contracts generally include the licensing of the company's
information system software, services related to the training and
installation of the software and sale of computer hardware. Pre-packaged
software revenue is recognized upon delivery. Computer hardware revenue
is recognized upon shipment. Training and system installation revenue is
recognized when services are performed. Support and maintenance revenue
is recognized on a pro-rata basis over the period of the contract.
Contracts for the Pharmakon software that pre-dated the acquisition of
Pharmakon (Note B) are recognized as revenue using the
percentage-of-completion method provided that collectibility is
determinable.
[3] Inventories:
Inventories, which consist of equipment purchased for resale, are valued
at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the specific
identification method.
[4] Fixed assets:
Furniture and equipment are depreciated by the straight-line method over
their estimated useful lives of five years. Leasehold improvements are
amortized by the straight-line method over the remaining terms of the
respective leases.
[5] Software development costs:
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86,
the Company capitalizes certain costs associated with the development of
computer software. Such costs, in addition to costs of purchased
software, are amortized over the software's estimated useful life of five
years. Management periodically evaluates the recoverability of
capitalized software development costs and write-downs are taken if
required.
Costs to maintain developed programs and other development costs incurred
prior to achievement of technical feasibility are expensed as incurred.
Such costs were $1,662,000 and $956,000 for the years ended June 30, 1997
and 1996, respectively. Software development costs reported on the
consolidated statements of operations include amortization (Note D).
F-7
<PAGE>
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1997
MEDIWARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTE A - THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
[6] Excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired:
The excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired, which
arose from the acquisitions of Digimedics, Pharmakon and JAC, is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over twenty years. Management
continually reevaluates the appropriateness of the amortization periods
and related carrying amount. Goodwill is adjusted if events and
circumstances indicate that an other than temporary decline in value
below the current unamortized historical cost has occurred. Several
factors are used to evaluate goodwill, including but not limited to
management's plans for future products and operations, market position
and continual acceptance, recent operating results and projected
undiscounted cash flows.
[7] Advances from customers:
Advances from customers represent contractual payments received by the
Company. Such amounts are recorded as income upon delivery of the system
with respect to system revenues or over the life of the service agreement
with respect to service revenue.
[8] Income taxes:
The Company utilizes the method of accounting for income taxes prescribed
by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes" (SFAS 109). Pursuant to SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable
to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect
at the balance sheet date. The resulting asset or liability is adjusted
to reflect enacted changes in tax law.
[9] Earnings (loss) per share:
Earnings (loss) per share are based on the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during each year. Stock options and warrants are
included as share equivalents using the modified treasury stock method.
Earnings per share are computed on a primary basis since the fully
diluted basis does not result in further dilution.
[10] Use of estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
[11] Impairment of long-lived assets:
During the year ended June 30, 1997 the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS 121"), "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
Of". SFAS 121 establishes accounting standards for the impairment of
long-lived assets, certain identifiable assets, and goodwill related to
those assets. The adoption of SFAS 121 had no effect on the Company's
financial statements.

<PAGE>
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1997
MEDIWARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTE A - THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
[12] Financial instruments:
The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued
expenses, capitalized lease obligations and long-term debt approximate
their fair value as the interest rates on the Company's indebtedness
appproximate current market rates and due to the short period to maturity
of these instruments.
[13] Stock-based compensation:
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"),
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". SFAS 123 encourages, but does
not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based
employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has elected to
continue to account for its employee stock-based compensation plans using
the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and
disclose the pro forma effects on net and earnings (loss) per share had
the fair value of options been expensed. Under the provisions of APB 25,
compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of
the quoted market price of the Company's common stock at the date of the
grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock (see Note
G).
[14] Recently issued accounting pronouncements:
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"),
"Earnings per Share". This new standard requires dual presentation of
basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") on the face of the statement
of income and requires reconciliation of the numerators and the
denominators of the basic and diluted EPS calculation. This statement
will be effective for the second quarter of the Company's 1998 fiscal
year and will require retroactive restatement of previously reported per
share data. The Company has not yet quantified what effect the adoption
of SFAS 128 will have on its earnings per share of common stock.
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130"), "Reporting
Comprehensive Income", and No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information". These statements will be effective
for the Company's 1999 fiscal year. Implementing SFAS 130 and SFAS 131
will not effect the Company's financial position or results of
operations.
NOTE B - ACQUISITIONS
On June 17, 1996, Digimedics and Information Handling Services Group, Inc.
("IHS") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Continental Healthcare Systems, Inc.
("Continental"), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement whereby Digimedics
purchased from Continental its Pharmakon division ("Pharmakon") on that date.
Also on June 17, 1996, Digimedics purchased from Holland America Investment
Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of IHS, all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of JAC, a United Kingdom corporation. Pharmakon and JAC develop,
install and maintain computerized information systems for hospital pharmacies.
Digimedics paid an aggregate of $3,666,000 in cash and issued a $6,000,000
secured promissory note (Note E) for both acquisitions.

NOTE B - ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED)
Digimedics also incurred acquisition costs of $238,000 in cash (of which
approximately $76,000 was to a related party see Note K) and issued 30,769
shares of common stock valued at $100,000 as a fee to related parties.
The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired, including cash of
$11,000, and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as follows:

NOTE E - NOTES PAYABLE (CONTINUED)
(1) On October 28, 1996 the Acquisition Note was amended to provide
for an extension of the original due date to August 1, 1997. The
extension agreement provided for an immediate payment of $1
million and monthly payments of $100,000 for principal and
interest. In addition, the interest rate was increased to 15% on
approximately $3,763,000 and 8.25% on the remaining $1,237,000.
The agreement provided for the monthly payments to be first
applied to the interest on the $1,237,000 portion of the loan
and the remainder applied to the interest, then principal, of
the portion of the loan which bears interest at 15%.
Effective July 21, 1997, the Acquisition Note was further
amended. The second amendment provides for (i) a reduction of
the principal balance by $437,000, which amount was owing by
Continental to Digimedics pursuant to a service agreement (Note
J), (ii) extended payment terms which require quarterly
principal payments of $150,000 commencing October 31, 1997 with
the balance due on November 30, 1998, or earlier in the event of
a change in control or refinancing by the Company as described
in the amended agreement, and (iii) a reduction in the interest
rate to 8.5% payable monthly. The note is classified in the
accompanying financial statements based on the amended payment
terms.
(2) Of these notes, $854,000 are subordinated to the Acquisition
Note and are accordingly classified as long-term debt. In
conjunction with the issuance of these notes the Company issued
warrants to purchase 1,040,025 shares of common stock for $0.50
per share and 129,695 shares for $1.25 per share, exercisable
through September 30, 2004. During May 1996, 495,025 of the
$0.50 warrants were exercised.

The Company also has options outstanding pursuant to a 1982 Stock Option
Plan (the "1982 Plan") and a Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan (the
"Non-Employee Directors Plan"). No additional options may be granted under
the 1982 Plan or the Non-Employee Directors Plan. The options under the
Non-Employee Directors Plan entitle the holders to purchase shares of
common stock at a price equal to the fair value on the date of grant.
In November 1996, the Company granted a director of the Company options to
purchase 75,000 shares of common stock at $3.50 per share pursuant to a
consulting agreement. The options are exercisable at a rate of 25,000
options per annum commencing November 1, 1997 and expire on November 1,
2001. The Company determined the fair value of these options to be
approximately $117,000 which is being charged to operations over three
years.

[1] Stock options and warrants: (continued)
The weighted-average fair value at date of grant for options granted
during the year ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 was $1.89 and $0.73 per
option, respectively. The fair value of options at date of grant was
estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model utilizing the
following assumptions:
<TABLE>

Risk-free interest rates 5.6% - 6.5% 5.9% - 6%

Expected stock price volatility 50% 80%
Expected dividend yield 0 0
</TABLE>
Had the Company elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair
value of the options at the date of grant as prescribed by SFAS 123, net
earnings (loss) for the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 would have been
$2,010,000 and $(3,521,000) or $0.34 per share and $(1.25) per share,
respectively.
[2] Private Placement:
During June 1996, the Company completed a private placement of its
securities. The Company issued 1,692,308 shares of its common stock for
$3.25 a share, yielding gross proceeds of approximately $5,550,000. In
connection with the private placement and the related registration of the
securities (pursuant to registration rights granted to the investors) the
Company incurred costs aggregating $568,000 (of which approximately
$118,000 was paid to a related party) ( see Note K). The Company recorded
$437,000 of these costs during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 and
$131,000 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. The Company also
issued 30,768 sharesof common stock to related parties as a placement
fee valued at $100,000.

Certain leases provide for additional payments for real estate taxes and
insurance and contain an escalation clause for increases in utilities and
services. Rental expense for the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
aggregated $442,000 and $213,000, respectively.
[2] Software license agreement:
In September 1990, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire a
perpetual license for a computerized information system for hospital
operating rooms. The Company is required to pay royalties of 5% to 15% of
sales of the product.
[3] Contingency:
Mediware Information Systems, Inc., ("Mediware") its wholly owned
subsidiary, Digimedics, and Continental have been named as co-defendants
in a litigation which has been commenced by a former customer of
Continental. The litigation arises out of a contract between Continental
and the customer, under which Continental was to install certain computer
equipment and software. The plaintiff alleges that computer equipment and
software were not operational, and that the contract the plaintiff had
with Continental was assigned without its consent to Digimedics when it
acquired Continental's Pharmakon Division (see Note J). The plaintiff also
alleges that Digimedics failed to honor the contract and that Mediware did
not fulfill its promise to install and support the software as prescribed
in the contract. The plaintiff's claims against Digimedics are for breach
of contract, intentional interference with contract, and negligent
interference with contract. The plaintiff's claims against Mediware are
for promissory estoppel, intentional interference with contract, and
negligent interference with contract. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified
compensatory, consequential, and punitive damages. Management believes
that the claims against the Company are without merit and is vigorously
opposing those claims, however, the outcome is presently undeterminable.
In the opinion of management any potential liability with respect to this
litigation will not materially affect the company's financial position or
results of operations.
[4] Other matters:
Substantially all of the Company's cash is held at two large financial
institutions.

This Note is an amendment and restatement of, and is being issued in
replacement and substitution for, the amended and Restated Secured Promissory
Note dated October 28, 1996 by the Debtor to the Payee in the original principal
amount of $5,000,000 (the "october '96 Note"), which itself was an amendment and
restatement of, and was issued in replacement and substitution for, the Secured
Promissory Note dated June 17, 1996 by the Debtor to the Payee in the original
principal amount of $6,000,000 (the "June '96 Note;" the June '96 Note and the
October '96 Note are collectively referred to as the "Original Note"). In
addition to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, this Note shall also
evidence any accrued and unpaid interest on the Original Notes.
SECTION 1. TERMS OF PAYMENT; PURPOSE OF LOAN
ss.1.1. Mandatory Payments. On October 31, January 31, April 30 and
July 31 of each year, commencing October 31, 1997, the Debtor shall pay $150,000
to the Payee to be applied by the Payee to the unpaid principal balance of this
Note.
ss.1.2. Optional Prepayments. The Debtor may, at its option, at any
time and from time to time, prepay all or any part of the principal balance of
this Note, without penalty or premium, in multiples of $100,000, provided,
however, that concurrently with each such prepayment the Debtor shall pay
accrued interest on the principal so prepaid to the date of such prepayment;
Provided, further, however, that, in addition to the foregoing, any optional
prepayment made prior to November 30, 1997 shall be accompanied by a prepayment
penalty equal to the amount of interest that would have been earned on the
principal amount being prepaid from the date of such prepayment through November
30, 1997; no such penalty will exist for any prepayment made after November 30,
1997.
ss.1.3. Day of Payment. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall
become due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day (as defined below),
such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of
any payment of principal, such extension of time shall in such case be included
in computing interest on such payment. As used herein, "Business Day" shall mean
any day which is not a Saturday or Sunday and on which banks in the State of New
York are not authorized or required to close. Interest on past due principal and
accrued interest thereon shall be calculated as follows: The amount of principal
and interest past due multiplied by the Default Rate and multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such principal and
interest is past due and the denominator of which is 360.
ss.1.4. Use of Proceeds. This Note is the "Note" referred to in Section
2.04 of the Asset Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof (as amended, modified
or supplemented in accordance with its terms, the "Purchase Agreement") among

evidences part of the "Purchase Price" as therein defined.
ss.1.5. Obligation to Pay. The Debtor shall make all payments hereunder

AGREEMENT REGARDING COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND SERVICING OF
CUSTOMERS AS RELATED TO DEFERRED REVENUES
AGREEMENT REGARDING COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS REEIVABLE AND SERVICING OF
CUSTOMERS AS RELATED TO DEFERRED REVENUES DATED AS OF June 17, 1996, among
Continental Healthcare Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation, ("Continental")
and Digimedics Corp., a California corporation (Digimedics").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Continental and Digimedics are parties to a certain Asset
Purchase Agreement dated June 17, 1996 providing for, among other things, the
purchase by Digimedics from Continental of certain assets related to
Continental's business of developing, selling and supporting computer software
systems and providing management information systems, for hospital pharmacies in
the United States and other countries (the "Business"); and
WHEREAS, while Digimedics is purchasing some accounts receivable of the
Business, Digimedics is not purchasing, and Continental is retaining, other
accounts receivable of the Business;
WHEREAS, relating to the accounts receivable retained by Continental,
additional work needs to be done;
WHEREAS, Continental wishes to contract with Digimedics to perform this
additional work relating to and to assist Continental in collecting the accounts
receivable that Continental is retaining, and Digimedics is willing to do so on
the terms and conditions set forth herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises
contained herein and other good and sufficient consideration paid, the parties
hereby agree as follows:
1. Collection of Accounts Receivable.
a. In General. Continental is contracting with Digimedics as
provided in this agreement to assist with the collection of the
Receivables (defined below) and in consideration therefor Continental
will pay to Digimedics thirty percent (30%) of the amount of
Receivables actually collected.
b. Amount and Identification of Receivables. As of the date
hereof, certain receivables will be transferred and become the property
of Digimedics while the remaining receivables remain the property of
Continental. These remaining receivables, totaling Five Million One
Hundred Eighty Five Thousand Eight Hundred Nineteen Dollars
($5,185,819), remain the property of Continental and will be referred
to in this agreement as the "Receivables;" any one of the Receivables
will be referred to a "Receivable." A list of all of the Receivables is
set forth on Schedule A attached hereto.
c. Level and Extent of Effort.
i. Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Digimedics will
assume the primary responsibility for collecting the
Receivables and will use commercially reasonable efforts to
make such collections. During the period when Digimedics is
responsible for collecting the Receivables, Continental will
not make any efforts whatsoever to also collect the
Receivables that have not yet been billed to the customer by
Continental. Commercially reasonable efforts means that
Digimedics will contact the customers owing the Receivables
and attempt to collect the Receivables due from that customer
but does not mean that Digimedics is required to lose money in
this process, that is, to use a level of effort to collect
from a customer which costs (on a fully allocated basis
including a profit margin) more than the thirty percent (30%)
of the receivables owned by that customer. In no event will
Digimedics be required to [A] engage a collection agency, or
[B] to commence litigation against any account debtor, or [C]
attempt to enforce against a customer an existing contractual
obligation, such as to purchase a module, where after entering
the contract the customer has decided not to make such
purchase, in order to collect Receivables. However, should
Digimedics deem it advisable to engage a third party to
collect all or part of the Receivables and provided
Continental agrees in writing to do so, the costs of the third
party will be deducted from the Receivables and the remainder
will be allocated seventy percent (70%) to Continental and
thirty percent (30%) to Digimedics. The limitation on the
amount to be spent by Digimedics on collection provided in
this paragraph is independent of and not a limitation on
Digimedics' costs to perform the work for customers referred
to in paragraph 2 below.
ii. Uncollectible Receivables. The parties recognize
that it may be difficult to collect certain of the
Receivables. At any time, Digimedics may indicate in writing
to Continental that it is not able to collect a Receivable for
which customer work has been completed at which point
Digimedics will be relieved from any obligation to collect
such Receivable, which obligation will fall to Continental. In
any event, should Digimedics not be able to collect a
Receivable within twelve (12) months after Digimedics has
completed the work Continental is contracting with Digimedics
to do under paragraph 2 below, then Continental may by written
notice require that Digimedics cease its efforts and be
relieved from any obligation to collect such Receivable, which
obligation will fall to Continental. In the event the
obligation to collect a Receivable falls on Continental, then
whatever amount Continental collects shall be for the sole
benefit of Continental.
d. Mechanism for Payment of Receivables to Continental and of
Collection Fee to Digimedics.
i. Continental, Digimedics and Lock Box Procedure.
With respect to the Receivables that have been invoiced by
Continental prior to the date of this Agreement, it is
anticipated that the customer will pay the amount to
Continental as indicated on the invoice and Continental will
pay thirty percent (30%) of such funds to Digimedics on
receipt by Continental. Regarding the Receivables not so
billed by Continental prior to the date hereof, Digimedics
will instruct and use its best reasonable efforts to have
customers pay amounts related to Receivables directly into a
lock box or account (the "Lock Box") at a Bank (the "Bank")
pursuant to a lock box agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 1
(the "Lock Box Agreement"). Among other things, the Lock Box
Agreement provides that as promptly as practicable, depending
upon the Bank's standard practices, to the extent Receivables
are collected, 91) the Bank will provide to both Continental
and Digimedics a list of the deposits made into the Lock Box
during the prior period, identifying the name of the depositor
and the amount deposited and 92) the Bank will pay seventy
percent (70%) of such funds to Continental and thirty percent
(30%) of such funds to Digimedics.
ii. "True-Up" Mechanism. It is recognized that
despite the intentions and efforts of the parties otherwise,
customers may pay (1) Receivables directly to Digimedics, (2)
amounts that are not Receivables ("Non-Receivables") to the
Lock Box, or (3) Receivables plus Non-Receivables into the
Lock Box or directly to Digimedics. If Receivable are paid to
Digimedics, promptly after discovery Digimedics will pay those
Receivables into the Lock Box. If Non-Receivables are paid
into the Lock Box, promptly after discovery Continental will
pay to Digimedics seventy percent (70%) of the Non-Receivables
paid into the , representing the total of the Non-Receivables
Continental has received via operation of the Lock Box
Agreement. If an amount composed of both Receivables and
Non-Receivables is paid to Digimedics, then promptly after
discovery Digimedics will pay the Receivables portion into the
Lock Box. If a an amount composed of both Receivables an
Non-Receivables is paid to the Lock Box, then promptly after
discovery Continental will pay to Digimedics seventy percent
(70%) of the Non-Receivables portion paid into the Lock box,
representing the total of the Non-Receivables portion
Continental has received via operation of the Lock Box
Agreement.
e. Procedures for Avoidance of Confusion and Allocation of
Payments by Customers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the party's
acknowledge that there may be confusion regarding payments from
customers which are intended to be applied to the Receivables and
payments from customers which are intended to be applied to new
receivables for work or services provided by Digimedics (other than
work referred to in paragraph 2 below) arising after Digimedics assumes
the conduct of the Business. To avoid such confusion, all payments
which are clearly identified (either by reference to an invoice number,
by exactly matching the amount of a specific invoice, or otherwise) as
payments for maintenance or service charges for the period starting on
the date of the closing of Digimedics' acquisition of the Business
shall be paid to and retained in its entirety by Digimedics. All
payments representing maintenance or support charges for the period
starting on the Closing Date shall be paid to and retained 100"% by
Digimedics. All payments which are identified by the customer hospital
as relating to a particular invoice shall be allocated to that invoice.
All payments which are identical in amount to an invoice shall be
allocated to such invoice. All items designated as maintenance or
relating to the amount of periodic maintenance will be allocated to
maintenance. In the event that the dollar amount of the payment
received is identical to one or more maintenance invoices the payment
will be allocated first to the oldest unpaid maintenance invoice which
is no more than 6 months overdue and after all maintenance 6 months or
less overdue are paid, then to the oldest maintenance invoice remaining
unpaid. In the event that payment is received which are not allocated
by the customer And which do not match the dollar amount of an
outstanding unpaid invoice, such payment will be applied to the oldest
outstanding invoice provided such invoice is not more than 6 months
overdue and further provided however, if all invoices are current
(including maintenance invoices), additional funds received from the
customer hospital will be allocated to the oldest unpaid invoice
regardless o whether or not more 6 months overdue. Doe purposes of this
Agreement the phrase "6 months overdue" shall refer to an invoice which
as not been paid for a period of 6 months after the due date for the
payment of such invoice established in accordance with Digimedics'
billing practices. Any invoice on which Digimedics charges interest
shall be considered due on the date that such interest charges
commence.
f. Procedures Regarding Certain Receivables. Regarding
Receivables from those agreements Continental has entered with
customers on or after January 1, 1996, Digimedics agrees that, until
June 17, 1997, should all or part of a Digimedics pharmacy system
substitute for the Pharmakon system then being used by the customer in
accordance with that agreement, such substitution will not reduce the
amount of the Receivable payable by the customer under that agreement
and the amounts paid by the customer for the Digimedics substitute
shall be deemed to be payment of the Receivable by the customer for
purposes of this Agreement, provided, however, that in no event will
the Receivable due from or paid by a customer exceed the amount set
forth for each customer on Schedule A hereto.
2. Performance of Additional Services Related to Deferred Revenues.
a. Assumption of Obligation to perform Work. As of the date of
this Agreement, substantial additional services must be performed by
the customers identified on Schedule B hereto, such as installation of
systems, customizing systems, training of customer personnel in the use
of the system and certain additional hardware (approximately $10,000 to
$20,000 at cost, in addition to hardware in inventory) must be provided
to the customers before the Receivables related to such services and
hardware can be billed and/or collected, which amount of work is
quantified on Continental's financial statements as of April 30, 1996
and identified by the term "Deferred Revenues." Deferred Revenues as of
the date of this Agreement equal $1,236,987 (one Million Two Hundred
Thirty Six Thousand Nine Hundred Eighty Seven Dollars). The performance
of such work is a condition to payment by those customers of certain of
the Receivables. Digimedics will agree to perform these services and
provide such hardware on behalf of Continental in exchange for the
payment to Digimedics of the Deferred Revenues. Digimedics agrees to
use commercially reasonable efforts to perform the services required in
connection with the Deferred Revenue in a reasonably prompt,
workmanlike and efficient manner. Schedule D sets forth Continental's
good faith estimate of the hours required as of the date set forth on
that schedule, based on Continental's current business practices, to
complete the services necessary to fulfill the requirements to bill the
Receivables in accordance with the underlying contracts.
b. Mechanism for Payment of Deferred Revenues. The
abovementioned 41,236,987 (One Million Two Hundred Thirty Six Thousand
Nine Hundred Eighty Seven Dollars) will be paid by Continental to
Digimedics simultaneous with the full payment of the Note 9as such term
is defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement of even date among the
parties and Information Handling Services Group, Inc. Such payment may
be made either (a) at the discre6tion of either party, after written
notice to the other, by offsetting the amount due on the Note, or (b)
by wire transfer to the account designated by Digimedics on Schedule C
hereto.
c. Each party will provide to the other with all records and
information that the other may reasonably request concerning the
collection of the Receivables and Digimedics will provide to
Continental with all records and information that Continental may
reasonably request concerning the status of the additional work to be
performed by Digimedics in accordance with paragraph 2 of this
Agreement. Each party will provide the other with reasonable access to
such records and information so that the parties can review same and
monitor progress. It is anticipated that the parties will meet on a
periodic basis so that each party will be informed by the other with
respect to the Receivables.
d. Certain Matters Related to Certain Contracts.
i. Henry Ford and Fairview. Continental's contract
with the Henry Ford Hospital potentially requires work to be
done concerning an MT Device. Continental's contract with the
Fairview Hospital potentially requires work to be done
concerning a clinical evaluation manage ("CLEM"). Should
either of these hospitals require that such work be done, any
and all obligations related to the work, including, without
limitation, refunding money, performing the work or defending
a litigation on the matter will be the sole responsibility of
Continental and Continental will indemnify and hold Digimedics
harmless from any and all claims and/or litigation and related
expense (including, without limitations, reasonable attorneys'
fees and disbursements and other obligation and settlement
costs, regardless of the outcome) arising out of or concerning
work to be done for the Henry Ford Hospital on the MT Device
or for Fairview Hospital on the CLEM.
ii. Pittsburgh. Continental's contract with the
University of Pittsburgh Medical Center ("Pittsburgh")
potentially requires joint development work to be done
concerning an Electronic MAR. Should Pittsburgh require that
work be done and Digimedics, after unsuccessfully attempting
to dissuade Pittsburgh from requiring the work be done, does
not wish to do the development work, any and al obligations
related to the work, including, without limitation, refunding
money, performing the work or defending a litigation on the
matter will be the sole responsibility of Continental and
Continental will indemnify and hold Digimedics harmless from
any and all claims and/or litigation and related expense
(including, without limitations, reasonable attorneys' fees
and disbursements and other obligation and settlement costs,
regardless of the outcome) arising out of or concerning work
for Pittsburgh to be done on the Electronic MAR.
iii. Indemnity Process. With regard to subparagraphs
i. and ii. Immediately above, as the indemnitor, Continental
may control the defense of any action or claim at its expense
and through counsel of its choice and may resolve or settle
the matter (requiring Digimedics agreement to do so only if
Digimedics is adversely affected by such resolution) and
Digimedics shall cooperate at Continental's expense as
reasonably required.
3. Representations and Warranties. Continental hereby represents and
warrants to Digimedics as follows:
a. Receivables. Schedule A hereto sets forth a true and
complete list of all of the Receivables. All of the Receivables which
have been billed as of the date of this Agreement arose from the sale
of inventory or services to persons, corporations, partnerships or
other entities not affiliated with Continental and in the ordinary
course of business consistent with past practice.
b. Deferred Revenue. The work to be performed in connection
with the Deferred Revenue arose under valid and existing contracts

and Digimedics (which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole
discretion of Continental and Digimedics); provided, however, that

only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be
bound thereby. No provision of this Agreement may be waived unless in
writing signed by the party to be charged therewith. Any waiver of any
term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a
waiver of any other term or condition, of this Agreement. The failure

doctrines.
k. Dispute Resolution.
i. In the event of any controversy, claim or dispute,
the party initiating the controversy, claim or dispute shall
provide to the other party a written notice containing a brief
and concise statement of the matter, together with relevant
supporting facts. During a period of thirty (30) days or such
longer period as mutually agreed, the parties shall attempt to
settle the matter by good faith negotiation. Such efforts
shall include, but not be limited to, full presentation by
each party of its claims, with or without counsel, to the
Presidents of Mediware information Systems, Inc. and of
Information Handling Services Group, Inc., which are the
parent companies of the parties.
ii. If efforts under Subsection 5.k.i. are not
successful, such dispute will be settled by binding
arbitration in New York, New York, under the Commercial Rules
of the American Arbitration Association then in effect (except
as otherwise set forth in the Agreement). The failure to
comply with Subsection 5.k.i. with respect to such dispute
shall be an absolute bar to the institution of arbitration
proceedings with respect thereto. The arbitration shall be
conducted in the English language before a panel of three
arbitrators, one of whom is selected by Continental, one of
whom is selected by Digimedics, and one of whom is selected by
Continental and Digimedics jointly (or by the other two
arbitrators, if the parties cannot agree). The parties will
cooperate with each other in causing the arbitration to be
held in as efficient and expeditious a manner as practicable.
If either party fails to appoint an arbitrator in thirty days,
the other party may request that the American Arbitration
Association may be such appointment. The arbitrators will be
required to render a full and complete written report of their
decision. The decision of a majority of the arbitrators will
constitute the arbitrators' decision. Any award rendered by
the arbitrators shall be binding upon the parties hereto and
shall be final, subject to review by a court of competent
jurisdiction under the statutory standard of review applicable
to arbitration. Judgment on the award may be entered in any
court of record having competent jurisdiction. Each party
shall pay its own expenses or arbitration and the expenses o
the arbitrators shall be equally shared except that if, in the
opinion of the arbitrators, any claim or position by a party
hereto, or any defense or objection thereto by another party
was unreasonable or frivolous, the arbitrators may in their
discretion assess as part of their award all or any art of the
arbitration expenses of the other party or parties (including
reasonable attorneys' fees) and expenses of the arbitrator
against such party. Nothing herein shall prevent the parties
from settling any dispute by mutual agreement at any time. The
law of the State of New York shall govern the validity, scope
and effect of this Subsection 5.k.
l. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an
original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the
same agreement.
m. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that
irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this
Agreement was not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and
that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms
hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity without the
necessity of demonstration the inadequacy of monetary damages.
n. Receipt of Money or Other Assets. If any money or other
assets are received by Continental or Digimedics to which the other
party is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, such party shall hold
such money or assets in trust and shall promptly notify and account
therefore to the other within fifteen (15) days of receipt.
o. Exhibits and Schedules. The Schedules to this Agreement
shall be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to
the same extent as if the same had been set forth verbatim herein.

Digimedics with respect to the Deferred Revenues shall be reduced from
$1,236,987 to $437,000. Digimedics acknowledges that Continental's obligation to
pay the $437,000 has been satisfied in full on the date hereof. Continental
shall have no further obligation to pay any amounts with respect to Deferred
Revenues.
3. Except Collection and Servicing Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect, including without limitation the obligations of Mediware provided in

Currently, premiums are not deducted from your compensation in order

13. MEDIWARE will provide you with three (3) months advance notice should

14. You will be eligible to participate in an executive bonus plan based on
three (3) distinct qualifiers, listed below.
a) A bonus paid once each year, within 2 months following
MEDIWARE'S financial audit, based on the successful execution
of "mutually agreed upon" objectives for this position. This
bonus equates to 15% of your annual salary or a maximum of

Taxes. Based on the Fiscal 1998 MEDIWARE business plan, this
bonus equals $37,500 at 100% attainment of our $5,000,000 EBIT

No. 10 40,000 Shares
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, Oscar Gruss & Son
Incorporated, 74 Broad Street, New York, NY 10004-2247 (the "Holder"), is
entitled to subscribe for and purchase from MEDIWARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC.,
a New York corporation (the "Company"), upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein, at any time or from time to time after August 27, 1997, and before 5:00
P.M. on August 26, 2000, New York time (the "Exercise Period"), 40,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock, par value $.10 per share ("Common Stock"), at a
price of $6 per share (the "Exercise Price"). This Warrant may not be sold,
transferred, assigned or hypothecated except that it may be transferred, in
whole or in part, (i) by will or by intestate succession, or (ii) by operation
of law; and the term the "Holder" as used herein shall include any transferee to
whom this Warrant has been transferred in accordance with the above. As used
herein the term "this Warrant" shall mean and include this Warrant and any
Warrants hereafter issued as a consequence of the exercise or transfer of this
Warrant in whole or in part.
The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant (the "Warrant Shares") and the Exercise Price may be adjusted from
time to time as hereinafter set forth.
1. This Warrant may be exercised at any time during the
Exercise Period as to the whole or any lesser number of whole shares, by the
surrender of this Warrant (with the election to exercise at the end hereof duly
executed) to the Company at its office at 1121 Old Walt Whitman Road, Melville,
New York, NY 11747, or such other place as is designated in writing by the
Company, together with a certified or bank cashier's check payable to the order
of the Company in an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number
of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is being exercised.
2. Upon each exercise of the Holder's rights to purchase the
Warrant Shares granted pursuant to this Warrant, as reissued from time to time,
the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Warrant Shares
issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the transfer books of the
Company shall then be closed or certificates representing such Warrant Shares
shall not then have been actually delivered to the Holder. As soon as
practicable after each such exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall issue
and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares,
registered in the name of the Holder or its designee. If this Warrant should be
exercised in part only, the Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for
cancellation, execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the right of the
Holder to purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares (or portions thereof)
subject to purchase hereunder.
3. Any Warrants issued upon the transfer or exercise in part
of this Warrant (together with this Warrant, the "Warrants") shall be numbered
and shall be registered in a Warrant Register as they are issued. The Company
shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of any Warrant on the Warrant
Register as the owner in fact thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to
recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Warrant on the
part of any other person, and shall not be liable for any registration or
transfer of Warrants which are registered or to be registered in the name of a
fiduciary or the nominee of a fiduciary unless made with the actual knowledge
that a fiduciary or nominee is committing a breach of trust in requesting such
registration or transfer, or with the knowledge of such facts that its
participation therein amounts to bad faith. The Warrants shall be transferable
only on the books of the Company upon delivery thereof duly endorsed by the
Holder or by his duly authorized attorney or representative, or accompanied by
proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer. In all cases
of transfer by an attorney, executor, administrator, guardian or other legal
representative, duly authenticated evidence of his or its authority shall be
produced. Upon any registration of transfer, the Company shall deliver a new
Warrant or Warrants to the person entitled thereto. The Warrants may be
exchanged, at the option of the Holder thereof, for another Warrant, or other
Warrants of different denominations, of like tenor and representing in the
aggregate the right to purchase a like number of Warrant Shares (or portions
thereof) upon surrender to the Company or its duly authorized agent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to cause
Warrants to be transferred on its books to any person if, in the opinion of
counsel to the Company, such transfer does not comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the rules and
regulations thereunder.
4. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
providing for the exercise of the rights to purchase all Warrant Shares granted
pursuant to this Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall, from
time to time, be sufficient therefor. The Company covenants that all shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, upon receipt by the Company
of the purchase price therefor, shall be validly issued, fully paid
nonassessable, and free of preemptive rights.
5. (a) In case the Company shall at any time after the date of
this Warrant (i) declare a dividend on the outstanding Common Stock in shares of
its capital stock, (ii) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock, (iii) combine
the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issue any
shares of its capital stock by reclassification of the Common Stock (including
any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which
the Company is the continuing corporation), then, in each case, the Exercise
Price, and the number and kind of shares of Common Stock receivable upon
exercise of this Warrant, in effect at the time of the record date for such
dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination, or
reclassification, shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder after
such time shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares
which, if such Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such time, he
would have owned upon such exercise and been entitled to receive by virtue of
such dividend, subdivision, combination, or reclassification. Such adjustment
shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.
(b) Whenever there shall be an adjustment as provided in this
Section 5, the Company shall promptly cause written notice thereof to be sent by
registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Holder, at its principal office, which
notice shall be accompanied by an officer's certificate setting forth the number
of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise
Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts
requiring such adjustment and the computation thereof, which officer's
certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such
adjustment absent manifest error.
(c) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of
shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company upon the exercise
of the Warrants. If any fraction of a share would be issuable on the exercise of
any Warrant (or specified portions thereof) the Company shall purchase such
fraction for an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the Current Market
Price of such share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of the Warrant.
6. In case of any consolidation with or merger of the Company
with or into another Corporation (other than a merger or consolidation in which
the Company is the surviving or continuing corporation), or in case of any sale,
lease or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the Company as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Company shall give the Holder 10
days written notice in advance of the effective time of such consolidation,
merger, sale, lease or conveyance and if the Warrant remains unexercised, such
successor, leasing or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall (i)
execute with the Holder an agreement providing that the Holder shall have the
right thereafter to receive upon exercise of this Warrant solely the kind and
amount of shares of stock and other securities, property, cash or any
combination thereof receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or
conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant might have been exercised immediately prior to such consolidation,
merger sale, lease or conveyance, and (ii) make effective provision in its
certificate of incorporation or otherwise, if necessary, in order to effect such
agreement. Such agreement shall provide for terms, conditions and features,
including but not limited to adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to those set forth in this instrument.
7. The Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants
shall be subject to a stop transfer order and certificate or certificates
evidencing such Warrant Shares shall bear the following legend:
"THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE
HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED OR
TRANSFERRED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE ASSIGNED IN
THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
WITH RESPECT THERETO UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF
COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT AN
EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION FOR SUCH SALE, TRANSFER,
HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER ASSIGNMENT IS AVAILABLE UNDER
SUCH ACT."
The Company will provide piggyback registration rights on such
terms and conditions as to be set forth in a Registration Rights Agreement
mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Holder.
8 Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant (and upon surrender of any
Warrant if mutilated), and upon reimbursement of the Company's reasonable
incidental expenses, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder thereof
a new Warrant of like date, tenor and denomination.
9. The Holder of any Warrant shall not have, solely on account
of such status, any rights of a stockholder of the Company, either at law or in
equity, or to any notice of meetings of stockholders or of any other proceedings
of the Company, except as provided in this Warrant.
10. This Warrant shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York applicable to contracts made and performed within such State, without
regard to principles of conflicts of law.
