(1) The dollar amounts in these columns represent the potential
realizable value that might be realized upon exercise of the
options immediately prior to the expiration of their term,
assuming that the market price of Common Stock appreciates from
the date of grant at the 5% and 10% annual rates prescribed by
regulation and, therefore, are not intended to forecast possible
future appreciation, if any, of the price of Common Stock. These
numbers do not take into account provisions of certain options
providing for termination of the option following termination of
employment, nontransferability or vesting over periods.
(2) The option exercise price may be paid in shares of Common Stock
owned by the executive officer, in cash, or in any other form of
valid consideration as determined by the Compensation Committee
in its discretion. The exercise price of each option was equal
to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of
grant.
(3) Individuals are no longer employed by the Company; therefore, all
stock options granted to such individuals have or will expire in
accordance with the terms of the Stock Option Plan.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
- -----------------------------------------------------------
Richard A. Gilleland was a member of the Compensation Committee of the
Board of PRG during 1997 and was elected the Chief Executive Officer
of PRG effective December 15, 1997. No other member of the
Compensation Committee of the Board of PRG was, during 1997, an
officer or employee of PRG or any of its subsidiaries, or was formerly
an officer of PRG or any of its subsidiaries or had any relationships
requiring disclosure by PRG.
During 1997, no executive officer of PRG served as (i) a member of the
compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent
functions) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served
on the Compensation Committee of the Board, (ii) a director of another

Committee of the Board, or (iii) a member of the Compensation
Committee (or other board committee performing similar functions) of
another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director
of PRG.
Compensation of Directors
- -------------------------
Directors who are employees of PRG or of a practice with which PRG has
entered a Service Agreement (each an "Affiliated Practice") do not
receive additional compensation for serving as directors. Each
director who is neither an employee of PRG nor of an Affiliated
Practice receives a fee of $2,000 for attendance at each Board of
Directors meeting (whether the meeting is in person or telephonic) and
$1,500 (if in person; $500 if telephonic) for each committee meeting
(unless held on the same day as a Board meeting) and an initial grant
of nonqualified options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock.

5,000 shares of Common Stock. All directors of PRG are reimbursed for
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board or
committees thereof, and for other expenses incurred in their capacity
as directors of PRG.
<PAGE>
Employment Agreements
- ---------------------
Mr. Gilleland has entered into an employment agreement with PRG
providing for a base salary of $360,000 per annum or as increased from
time to time by the Board of Directors or the Option and Compensation
Committee. Such employment agreement provides that in the event of a
termination of employment without cause by PRG or for Good Reason
(defined below) by Mr. Gilleland, Mr. Gilleland shall be entitled to
receive from PRG, during the Severance Period (defined below), an
annual payment equal to 175% of the amount of Mr. Gilleland's then
current annual salary, to be paid in bi-weekly installments, plus a
payment for accrued but unpaid wages, expense reimbursements and a
prorated annual bonus equal to 145% of the amount calculated by
dividing Mr. Gilleland s annual base salary at the date of termination
by twelve and multiplying the result by the number of months in the
year of such termination that began or ended prior to the date of such
termination. Under Mr. Gilleland s employment agreement, the term
Severance Period means (i) if Mr. Gilleland s employment is terminated
at or prior to the end of the initial three year term, (including by
failure of the Company to renew the agreement at the end of the
initial term), a period equal to the greater of (x) two full years
beginning on the date of termination and (y) the then remaining
portion of the initial term and (ii) if Mr. Gilleland s employment is
terminated after the end of the initial term and prior to the end of
the then-current renewal term (including by failure of the Company to
renew the agreement at the end of the renewal term), a period equal to
one full year beginning on the date of termination. Good Reason is
defined in the employment agreement as a material diminution of Mr.
Gilleland's responsibilities or duties, a reduction in Mr. Gilleland's
base salary or minimum annual bonus of at least 75% of base salary, or
annual bonus or long-term incentive compensation opportunity, a change
of control, failure of the Board of Directors to adopt an Executive
Bonus Program by March 31, 1998, failure of PRG to execute and deliver
to Mr. Gilleland on or prior to December 21, 1997 an Option Agreement
and Registration Rights Agreement, requiring Mr. Gilleland to move his
principal place of business from the current location in Westlake
Village, California or such other location as Mr. Gilleland should
agree to in writing, or a material breach by PRG of the employment
agreement which is not cured promptly after written notice to PRG from
Mr. Gilleland. In addition, if PRG achieves target performance
objectives for the entire year in which such termination occurs that
would have entitled Mr. Gilleland to receive an annual bonus for such
year calculated at a percent greater than 145% of base salary, Mr.
Gilleland shall be entitled to an additional amount equal to (a) such
larger bonus amount divided by twelve and multiplied by the number of
months in the year of such termination that began or ended prior to
the date of such termination minus (b) the amount previously paid upon
termination. The employment agreement contains a covenant-not-to-
compete with PRG during the term of the employment agreement.
However, the agreement does provide that Mr. Gilleland may own less
than 5% of the common stock of any publicly traded corporation or
other Person conducting business in the Designated Industry (defined
<PAGE>
as a business organization in engaging in any business activities that
are substantially and directly competitive with the business
activities then conducted by PRG), serve as an officer, director,
stockholder or employee of a corporation or other Person engaged in
the healthcare industry whose business operations are not
substantially and directly competitive with those of PRG, serve on the
board of directors of any business or corporation on which he served
as of the date of the employment agreement, continue his current
consulting arrangements with STERIS Corporation, and Clayton, Dubilier
& Rice, Inc. or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates,
and engage in any activities in connection with such arrangements.
In addition to base salary, Mr. Gilleland through his employment
agreement is eligible for a fixed bonus of $54,000 for 1997 and a
bonus in an amount equal to at least $630,000 minus his base salary
for all years thereafter. Mr. Gilleland shall have the opportunity to
receive a bonus based on the financial performance objectives of the
Company. This bonus is to range between 145% and 215% of Mr.
Gilleland s base salary. Mr. Gilleland was granted an option to
purchase 1,500,000 shares of PRG Common Stock with the per share
exercise price being the closing sale price for PRG stock on the New
York Stock Exchange on the date of the commencement of the employment
agreement. The options were fully vested and exercisable upon grant.
His agreement began in December 1997 and is for a term of three years,
automatically renewed thereafter for successive one year terms unless
either party gives 90 days notice of termination.
Mr. Bond has entered into an employment agreement with PRG providing
for a base salary of $155,000 per annum or as increased from time to
time by the Board of Directors. Such employment agreement provides
that in the event of a termination of employment by PRG other than (i)
for cause, (ii) upon death or disability or (iii) upon notice 60 days
prior to an automatic renewal date occurring after five years from the
date of first employment, Mr. Bond shall be entitled to receive from
PRG a payment equal to the amount of Mr. Bond's then current annual
salary, to be paid in twelve monthly installments, plus a payment for
accrued but unpaid wages and expense reimbursements. Mr. Bond's
employment agreement provides that in the event Mr. Bond's employment
terminates within twelve months following a change in control (as
defined in such employment agreement) of PRG, PRG shall pay Mr. Bond
2.99 times Mr. Bond's (i) base salary, (ii) maximum potential bonus
and (iii) certain other compensation, with certain adjustments. The
employment agreement provides that PRG will pay an amount necessary to
reimburse Mr. Bond, on an after tax basis, for any excise tax due
under Section 4999 of the Code, as a result of such payment being
treated as a "parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code. The
employment agreement contains a covenant-not-to-compete with PRG for a
period of two years following termination of employment. However, the
agreement does provide that Mr. Bond may devote up to ten percent
(10%) of his professional time or two (2) days per month to a
consulting business independent from PRG.
<PAGE>
In addition to base salary, Mr. Bond, through an amendment to his
employment agreement effective March 5, 1998, is eligible for an
annual bonus based on performance objectives to be determined by the
board of directors on an annual basis. Mr. Bond shall have a target
bonus opportunity of fifty percent (50%) of his salary range midpoint
for each calendar year during the term of his employment if the
Company attains specified budgeted financial performance objectives
for such year, and an over achievement bonus opportunity of five
percent (5%) of target bonus for each one percent (1%) the Company
exceeds such specified budgeted financial performance objectives. In
connection with entry into his employment agreement, Mr. Bond was
granted an option to purchase 95,000 shares of PRG Common Stock with
the per share exercise price being the closing sale price for PRG
stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of the commencement
of the employment agreement. The options vest over a five (5) year
period from the commencement of the employment agreement; however, the
options are immediately exercisable upon a Change in Control. The
term of Mr. Bond s agreement began in October 1995 and is for a term
of five years, automatically renewed thereafter for successive one
year terms unless either party gives 60 days prior notice of
termination.
Mr. D'Amico has entered into an employment agreement with PRG
providing for a base salary of $120,000 per annum or as increased from
time to time by the Board of Directors. Such employment agreement
provides that in the event of a termination of employment by PRG other
than (i) for cause or (ii) upon death or disability, Mr. D'Amico shall
be entitled to receive from PRG a payment equal to the amount of Mr.
D'Amico's then current annual salary, to be paid in twelve monthly
installments, plus a payment for accrued but unpaid wages and expense
reimbursements. Mr. D'Amico's employment agreement provides that in
the event Mr. D Amico's employment terminates within twelve months
following a change in control (as defined in such employment
agreement) of PRG, PRG shall pay Mr. D'Amico 2.99 times Mr. D'Amico's
(i) base salary, (ii) maximum potential bonus and (iii) certain other
compensation, with certain adjustments. The employment agreement
provides that PRG will pay an amount necessary to reimburse Mr.
D'Amico, on an after tax basis, for any excise tax due under Section
4999 of the Code, as a result of such payment being treated as a
"parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code. The employment
agreement contains a covenant-not-to-compete with PRG for a period of
two years following termination of employment. However, the agreement
does provide that Mr. D'Amico may devote up to ten percent (10%) of
his professional time or two (2) days per month to a consulting
business independent from PRG.
In addition to base salary, Mr. D Amico, through an amendment to his
employment agreement effective March 5, 1998, is eligible for an
annual bonus based on performance objectives to be determined by the
board of directors on an annual basis. Mr. D Amico shall have a
target bonus opportunity of fifty percent (50%) of his salary range
midpoint for each calendar year during the term of his employment if
the Company attains specified budgeted financial performance
<PAGE>
objectives for such year, and an over achievement bonus opportunity of
five percent (5%) of target bonus for each one percent (1%) the
Company exceeds such specified budgeted financial performance
objectives. In connection with his employment by the Company in 1995,
Mr. D'Amico was granted an option to purchase 70,000 shares of PRG
Common Stock with the per share exercise price for 3,750 of such
shares being $5.00 per share and the per share exercise price for the
remaining 66,250 of such shares being the initial public offering
price for the Company's Common Stock. The options vest over a five
(5) year period from the commencement of the employment agreement;
however, the options are immediately exercisable upon a Change in
Control. His agreement began in April 1995 and is for a term of five
years, automatically renewed thereafter for successive one year terms
unless either party gives 30 days notice of termination.
Mr. Kingston entered into an employment agreement with PRG providing
for a base salary of $100,000 per annum or as increased from time to
time by the Board of Directors. Such employment agreement provided
that in the event of a termination of employment by PRG other than (i)
for cause or (ii) upon death or disability, Mr. Kingston would be
entitled to receive from PRG a payment equal to the amount of Mr.
Kingston's then current annual salary, to be paid in twelve monthly
installments, plus a payment for accrued but unpaid wages and expense
reimbursements. Mr. Kingston's employment agreement provided that in
the event Mr. Kingston's employment terminated within twelve months
following a change in control (as defined in such employment
agreement) of PRG, PRG would pay Mr. Kingston 2.99 times Mr.
Kingston's (i) base salary, (ii) maximum potential bonus and (iii)
certain other compensation, with certain adjustments. The employment
agreement provides that PRG will pay an amount necessary to reimburse
Mr. Kingston, on an after tax basis, for any excise tax due under
Section 4999 of the Code, as a result of such payment being treated as
a "parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code. The employment
agreement contains a covenant-not-to-compete with PRG for a period of
two years following termination of employment. However, the
agreement did provide that Mr. Kingston may devote up to ten percent
(10%) of his professional time or two (2) days per month to a
consulting business independent from PRG.
In addition to base salary, Mr. Kingston through his employment
agreement was eligible for an annual bonus based on earnings per share
growth. Bonuses were capped at 50% of base salary. Under the
Employment Agreement, an option to purchase 75,000 shares of Common
