Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
complete text of the statute, Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation, as amended, Amended and Restated By-Laws and agreement referred
to below.
The Registrant's Amended and Restated By-Laws provide that each person who
was or is made a party to, is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise
involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant (or is or was serving at
the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another entity), will be indemnified and held harmless by the Registrant to the
fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law as it
currently exists or is later amended.
Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation
may indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation (or
other entity if such person is serving in such capacity at the corporation's
request) against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed
to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful. In the case of an action brought by or in the right of the
corporation, the corporation may indemnify a director,
<PAGE> 3
officer, employee or agent of the corporation (or other entity if such person
is serving in such capacity at the corporation's request) against expenses
(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed
to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall
be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless a court determines
that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnification for such expenses as the court shall deem proper. Expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may
be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action,
suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such
director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined
that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.
The Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended, provides that a director of the Registrant shall not be personally
liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders, (ii) for any
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or
a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law or (iv) for any transaction in which the director derived an
improper personal benefit.
In addition, the Registrant and Randolph G. Brown are parties to an
agreement pursuant to which the Registrant has agreed to indemnify and hold
harmless Mr. Brown to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law as it presently exists or to such greater extent as such law
may subsequently be amended.
The Registrant maintains directors and officers liability insurance. Such
policies have a deductible of $350,000 and an annual per occurrence and
aggregate cap on coverage of $20 million.

Item 9. Undertakings
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(a)(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement;
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range
may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and
price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in
the effective Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination
of the offering.
(b) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant
to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
-3-
<PAGE> 5
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such labilities (other than the payment by
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Common Stock, $.01 par value (herein called the "Non-Voting Common Stock").
All cross-references in each subdivision of this Article Fourth refer to other
paragraphs in such subdivision unless otherwise indicated.
The following is a statement of the designations and the powers,
preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions
thereof, of each class of stock of the Corporation:
I.
COMMON STOCK
1. Dividends. The holders of shares of Common Stock shall be
entitled to receive such dividends as from time to time may be declared by the
Board of Directors of the Corporation, subject to the rights of holders of Non-
Voting Common Stock provided for herein.
2. Liquidation. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of
Common Stock and the holders of Non-Voting Common Stock shall be entitled to
share ratably based
-2-
<PAGE> 5
upon the number of shares held by them in all assets of the Corporation
available for distribution to its stockholders.
3. Voting Rights. All shares of Common Stock shall be identical
with each other in every respect. The shares of Common Stock shall entitle the
holders thereof to one vote for each share upon all matters upon which
stockholders have the right to vote.
II.
NON-VOTING COMMON STOCK
1. Dividends. The holders of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock
shall be entitled to receive such dividends as from time to time may be
declared by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. No dividend will be
declared or paid on Common Stock unless an equivalent per share dividend is
declared and paid on the Non-Voting Common Stock. In the event that the
holders of Common Stock receive a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock,
then holders of Non-Voting Common Stock shall receive an equivalent dividend,
payable in shares of Non-Voting Common Stock.
2. Liquidation. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of
Common Stock and the holders of Non-Voting Common Stock shall be entitled to
share ratably based upon the number of shares held by them in all assets of the
Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders.
3. Voting Rights. Holders of Non-Voting Common Stock shall have
no rights to vote except as provided by law.
4. Conversion.
4A. Right to Convert. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
paragraph 4, the holder of any share or shares of Non-Voting Common Stock shall
have the right, at its option and at any time, to convert any whole number of
such shares of Non-Voting Common Stock (except that upon any liquidation of the
Corporation the right of conversion shall terminate at the close of business on
the last full business day next preceding the date fixed for payment of the
amount distributable on Non-Voting Common Stock) into an equal number of
fully-paid and nonassessable whole shares of Common Stock. Such rights of
conversion shall be exercised by the holder thereof by giving written notice
that the holder elects to convert a stated number of whole shares of Non-Voting
Common Stock into Common Stock and by surrender of a certificate or
certificates for the shares so to be converted to the Corporation at its
principal office (or such other office of the Corporation as the Corporation
may designate by notice in writing to the holder or holders of Non-Voting
Common Stock) at
-3-
<PAGE> 6
any time during its usual business hours, together with a statement of the name
or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of
Common Stock shall be issued.
4B. Issuance of Certificates; Time Conversion Effected. Promptly
after the receipt of the written notice referred to in subparagraph 4A and
surrender of the certificate or certificates for the share or shares of
Non-Voting Common Stock to be converted, the Corporation shall issue and
deliver, or cause to be issued and delivered, to the holder, registered in such
name or names as such holder may direct, a certificate or certificates for the
number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such
share or shares of Non-Voting Common Stock. To the extent permitted by law,
such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the
close of business on the day the certificate or certificates for such share or
shares shall have been surrendered as aforesaid, and at such time the rights of
the holder of such share or shares of Non-Voting Common Stock shall cease, and
the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates
for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be
deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the share or shares
represented thereby.
4C. Fractional Shares; Dividends; Partial Conversion. No
fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of Non-Voting Common Stock
into Common Stock and no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any
conversion on account of any cash dividends on the Common Stock issued upon
such conversion. At the time of each conversion, the Corporation shall pay in
cash an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid (if any) on the shares
of Non-Voting Common Stock surrendered for conversion to the date upon which
such conversion is deemed to take place as provided in subparagraph 4B. In case
the number of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock represented by the certificate
or certificates surrendered pursuant to subparagraph 4A exceeds the number of
shares converted, the Corporation shall, upon such conversion, execute and
deliver to the holder thereof, at the expense of the Corporation, a new
certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock
represented by the certificate or certificates surrendered which are not to be
converted.
5. Subdivision or Combination of Stock. In case the Corporation
shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of shares, then the Non-Voting Common Stock shall be similarly
subdivided, and conversely, in case the outstanding shares of Common Stock
shall be combined into a small number of shares, then the number of shares of
Non-Voting Common Stock immediately prior to such combination shall be
proportionately reduced.

thereof, be automatically converted into one share of Common Stock. Each share

of the effective date of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

Incorporation.

by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors of the Corporation
is expressly authorized and empowered to make, alter or repeal the Bylaws of
the Corporation, subject to the power of the stockholders of the Corporation to

loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for any acts or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing

Law or (iv) for any transaction for which the director derived an improper

Re: Medaphis Corporation -- Form S-8 Registration Statement
Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Medaphis Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement
on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission relating to 2,750,000 shares of the Company's voting common
stock, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"), to be offered pursuant to the
Medaphis Corporation Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan for Employees of Acquired
Companies (the "Plan"). In so acting, we have examined and relied upon such
records, documents, certificates and other instruments as in our judgment are
necessary or appropriate to form the basis for the opinion set forth below. In
all such examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of signatures on
original documents and the conformity to such original documents of all copies
submitted to us as certified, conformed or photographic copies, and as to
certificates of public officials, we have assumed the same to have been
properly given and to be accurate.
This opinion is limited in all respects to the federal laws of the United
States of America and the laws of the State of Delaware, and no opinion is
expressed with respect to the laws of any other jurisdiction or any effect
which such laws may have on the opinion expressed below.
Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications and
assumptions set forth in this letter, we are of the opinion that the shares of
Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise of stock options ("Options")
granted under the Plan are duly authorized and, assuming (i) the shares of
Common Stock so issuable continue to be duly authorized on the dates of
exercise, (ii) on the dates of exercise, the Options will have been duly
executed, issued, and delivered, will constitute the legal, valid, and binding
obligations of the Company, and will (subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, and other laws affecting the enforceability of
<PAGE> 3
Medaphis Corporation

Page 2
creditors' rights generally) be enforceable as to the Company in accordance
with their terms, and (iii) no change occurs in the applicable law or the
pertinent facts, then, when the Options are exercised in accordance with their
terms and the terms of the Plan (including the payment of any consideration
therefor), the shares of Common Stock so issuable will be validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable.
We consent to the filing of this opinion as an Exhibit to the Registration
Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ King & Spalding
