PART I


ITEM 1 - BUSINESS

(a) General Development of Business

OptimumCare Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in California on
November 25, 1986 and was reincorporated in Delaware on June 29, 1987. In
mid-1987, the Company commenced the development and marketing of health care
facility-based programs ("Programs") to be managed by the Company for the
treatment of depression and certain other mental health disorders
("PsychPrograms"), as well as programs for alcohol and drug abuse ("Treatment
Programs"). After the Company obtains a contract for the establishment of one or
more Programs at a host health care facility, the Company recruits and trains
the staff needed to operate its programs. Typically, the host health care
facility provides a specified number of beds for the Program, as well as all
other support services required for the operation of the Program, including
nursing, dietary, housekeeping, billing and other administrative functions. The
Company recruits and trains the staff to operate the Program. The Company's
staffing of a Program will usually include a medical director, a program
director, a psychologist, a chief therapist and one or more counselors or social
workers.

Contracts are individually negotiated with the host health care facility and
usually approximate 20 to 60 beds. Generally, the Company and the host health
care facility negotiate a per patient management fee which depends on the scope
of services provided by the Company number of beds, rates charged and
reimbursements received by the facility, and in some instances, a fixed monthly
administrative fee and reimbursement of certain direct program costs. The health
care facility charges the patient on a daily basis in accordance with a fee
schedule of prescribed rates, except where the insurer provides for payment
which is limited to a maximum number of days per patient. The health care
facility pays the Company a fixed management fee per patient which approximates
$160 per patient day or in some cases, a reimbursement of direct costs plus a
per patient per day incentive fee and a percentage of overhead fee, and a fixed
management fee per visit which approximates $85 per visit or in some cases, a
percentage of collected revenues for outpatient contracts. Certain contracts
contain provisions which deny portions or all of the management fee should
patient days be ultimately appealed and denied by the patient payor.

As of March 11, 1996, the Company has thirteen (13) Programs that are hosted by
six (6) hospitals: Five PsychPrograms through Huntington InterCommunity
Hospital, D/B/A Humana Hospital Huntington Beach, Huntington Beach, California,
two PsychPrograms at St. Francis Medical Center, Lynwood, California, one
PsychProgram at Brotman Medical Center, Culver City, California, one
PsychProgram at Samaritan Health System D/B/A Samaritan Medical Center, San
Clemente, California, two PsychPrograms through Sherman Oaks Hospital and
HealthCenter, Sherman Oaks, California, and two PsychPrograms at Mission
Community Hospital, San Fernando, California.

(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments

The Company competes in one industry segment which is the development, marketing
and operation of Programs.

(c) Narrative Description of the Business

(i) and (ii) Products

OptimumCare's PsychPrograms ("PsychProgram")

The PsychProgram is a medically-supervised psychiatric care program for certain
types of mental health disorders that is offered on both an inpatient and
outpatient basis. The PsychProgram is directed at assisting the patient to
return to a normal life. The PsychProgram is designed to treat patients with
neuroses and personality disorders; however, the Company's marketing focus is to
attract patients who exhibit symptoms of depression. Patients suffering from
depressive mental illness manifest, among other things, loss of interest in the
world generally, loss of activity and capacity to love, sadness, hopelessness,
fatigue, boredom, restlessness, loss of belief in personal future, anxiety and
feelings of ill-at-ease. At the outset, a patient receives a physical
examination and diagnostic testing to eliminate any physical illnesses which may
evidence some symptoms of mental disorders.

Each PsychProgram also includes individual and group therapy and a full daily
regimen of activities including sessions for relaxation, assertiveness training,
exercise and men's and women's sexual awareness. The Company estimates that the
average stay for a patient in a PsychProgram will be 7-10 days.

OptimumCare's Partial Hospitalization Program ("Partial Hospitalization")

Partial Hospitalization is a new behavioral medicine outpatient product that
provides daytime treatment programs that employ an integrated and individualized
schedule of recognized psychiatric treatment modalities.

Partial Hospitalization is a treatment approach developed as an alternative to
inpatient treatment. It includes the major psychiatric evaluation and treatment
modalities (both psychosocial and biological), which are usually found in a
comprehensive psychiatric inpatient program. It is designed for voluntary
patients with serious mental disorders who require intensive and
multi-disciplinary treatment which cannot be provided in an outpatient setting.
By offering a medically-supervised alternative to inpatient treatment, it
provides a more flexible, less costly and less restrictive form of treatment.

Partial Hospitalization can be utilized by individuals who are mentally or
emotionally impaired, but who are able to be maintained in the community at
least part of each day, and present little risk of imminent danger to themselves
or others. The Company believes that the benefits of partial hospitalization
include: lessening the disruption of social, family, and community ties;
allowing the patient to test new skills in a more natural environment than a
hospital setting; providing a treatment milieu that fosters independence and
self reliance; allowing daily feedback from the home environment thereby closely
involving members of the patient's family or supportive environment in the
treatment program; providing flexibility in the number of treatment days per
week thus allowing a patient to pursue other activities such as a shortening of
the

2
5
inpatient stay or preventing the need for full hospitalization.

Expansion of Products

The Company is seeking to expand the scope of psychological services it offers
by acquiring entities which offer complimentary mental health services.

Negotiations are currently underway to purchase Psychological Healthcare, Inc.
and Care Source, Inc. Psychological Healthcare operates outpatient mental health
clinics. Care Source provides management and other administrative behavioral
healthcare services to skilled nursing and other similar bed and board
facilities. Although there is no definitive agreement as of December 31, 1995,
the Company believes that the transaction will close in the second quarter of
1996.

The Company believes that it can more effectively market its services to managed
care payors by increasing the scope of services it provides.

Staffing

The PsychProgram and Partial Hospitalization Programs are staffed by the Company
with a medical director, a program manager, and in some cases, a psychologist, a
chief therapist, and at least one counselor or social worker. The key staff
members are the medical director and the program manager. The medical director
is a licensed psychiatrist who is a staff member of the host health care
facility and is engaged as an independent contractor charged with the
responsibility for overseeing the administration of the Program from a
medical/regulatory compliance viewpoint. In addition to the medical director who
is responsible for administering the clinical aspects of the contract, the
Company often engages co-medical directors in each community in which a Program
is located. These co-medical directors are licensed psychiatrists or
psychologists. They provide administrative assistance to a Program and represent
it at various professional activities in the local community. The co-medical
directors are compensated at a fixed monthly rate, depending on the amount of
time they commit to supporting the Company's Programs. The Company's employees
and contractors at each program are subject to approval and pre-employment
screening by the host health care facility. The Company has not experienced any
difficulty in locating qualified medical directors from the hospital staff to
affiliate with the Company's Programs. The program manager is a full time
employee of the Company and usually has completed either a bachelor's or
master's degree program in psychology or social work, but is principally a
marketing representative of the Company. Program managers are officed at their
respective Program's facility.

Contract Operations

The Company provides a host health care facility with staff recruitment, a
two-week pre-opening in-service nurse and hospital employee training program,
program management, continuing education, community education, ongoing public
relations and program quality assurance.

The Company provides these training programs to the host health care facility at
no charge. Nursing, dietary, X-ray, laboratory, housekeeping, admissions and
billing are the responsibility of the host health care facility.




3
6
Existing contracts range from a period of one to five years and may be renewed
for subsequent terms, of usually one year periods. In some cases, if the Company
does not maintain a stipulated minimum average daily census for specified
periods the health care facility may terminate the contract on reasonable notice
to the Company.

Payment for Services

Patients are screened by the host healthcare facility prior to admission.
Screening procedures include verification of the existence and extent of
insurance coverage.

It is the host health care facility's responsibility to bill and collect the
fees charged to the patient for all program services. The Company in turn bills
the host health facility for the total patient days of service provided at the
specified contract rate. Generally, the Company bills the host health care
facility fifteen (15) days after the close of the month in which the services
were rendered. Except in the cases where the contracts provide for specific hold
backs for ultimately denied days, the majority of the contracts do not
specifically provide that the Company shall bear any risk of non-payment by the
host healthcare facility. However, industry practice dictates that the Company
acknowledge that a certain percentage of the fees will be uncollected by the
host health care facility. Thus, accommodations are expected to be made on a
case-by-case basis with each host health care facility (except where there is an
express contractual provision which governs this issue) to offset some portion
of Program patients' bad debts experienced by the host health care facility.

Many of the hospitals the Company contracts with have a large number of Medicare
and Medicaid patients. However, the Company has negotiated with these hospitals
whereby they are paid either a flat per diem rate or a per diem rate with a hold
back for days ultimately denied. Thus, the Company is not directly dependent on
Medicare or Medicaid for payment under its contracts. It is unknown, whether in
the future other contracts or programs will be dependent on a disproportionate
amount of Medicare/Medicaid patients.

Marketing

The Company's marketing efforts are primarily directed toward increasing the
number of management contracts by either the takeover of existing programs
operated by others or the establishment of new Partial Hospitalization or
PsychPrograms in geographically desirable areas. The Company believes that their
ability to secure new contracts is based on its reputation as a quality provider
coupled with its history of low length of patient stays resulting in less
uncompensated care.

Sales calls are primarily directed at health care facilities which may be
experiencing a low or declining patient census and facilities in geographically
desirable areas. After a contract is obtained, the Company prepares a detailed
marketing development strategy aimed at attracting patients to the Programs.

The program director for each PsychProgram at the host health care facility
develops a media press kit for each Program. The program director coordinates
all local advertising consistent with the Company's overall marketing plan. Each
program director implements a local market development strategy to increase the
public awareness of the Program, including the establishment of a media
appearance and community speakers bureau which are referred to the broadcast
media for further exposure. The co-medical directors direct local continuing
professional education and community service programs on an as-needed basis. The
host hospital's administrative and medical staffs are also encouraged to
participate in community relations activities.

4
7
Direct marketing to psychiatrists, psychologists and other licensed
professionals by the Company is emphasized because these individuals motivate
potential patients to seek inpatient treatment for their mental health. The
Company's marketing approach to physicians and clinicians emphasizes involvement
through one-on-one communication with the professionals who will provide patient
referrals. These professionals are invited to the Company-sponsored community
relations activities, speaker programs and continuing education seminars.


(iii) Raw Materials

Inapplicable.

(iv) Patents and Trademarks

The Company holds a federal service mark, Registration #1628745, for its
tradename "OptimumCare". The Company has marketed its programs under the names
"OptimumCare PsychProgram" and "OptimumCare Treatment Program".

(v) Seasonality

The Company has noted a trend that its business appears to be susceptible to
some seasonal variation. Census tends to substantially decrease near various
holidays, particularly during the fourth quarter.

(vi) Working Capital Items

The Company expects to experience an initial one-time maximum delay of up to 90
days in receipt of revenues after each Program is opened due to the normal
processing time for the billing/payment cycle of the host health care
facilities.

(vii) Dependence on a Few Customers

The Company presently has thirteen (13) Programs operating through six (6)
hospitals. If any of these Programs were terminated, or if any of the accounts
receivable from these contracts were to become uncollectible, such event could
have a material adverse effect on the Company.

(viii) Backlog

Inapplicable.

(ix) Government Contracts

The Company is not currently a party to any government contract.

(x) Competition

The Company competes with other health care management companies for contracts
with acute care hospitals. Also, the Company's Programs will compete for
patients with the programs of other hospitals and other health care facilities.
The success of the Company's Programs is also dependent on its ability to
establish relationships with sources of patient referrals.

The Company's principal competitors include Charter Medical Corporation,
Community Psychiatric Centers, Comprehensive Care Corporation, Mental Health
Management and Horizon Health Services, all of which have greater financial and
other resources and more experience than the Company. In addition, some health
maintenance organizations ("HMOs") offer competing programs; however, the
HMO-owned hospitals typically do not provide inpatient psychiatric services, nor
coverage for these services. Most HMOs also do not provide programs for partial
hospitalization or substance abuse, but often provide coverage for these
programs, usually at a reduced rate.

Other health care facilities offer comparable programs which compete with the
Company's Programs in each service area. The Company believes, however, that in
general its marketing efforts are primarily effective within a ten (10) mile
radius around the host hospital and that patients outside such radius are not
directly affected by such advertising unless their personal physician has
admitting privileges and recommends the Company's program at that host hospital.

The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in obtaining
contracts with health care facilities are experience, reputation for quality
programs, the availability of program support services and price. The primary
competitive factors in attracting referral sources and patients are marketing,
reputation, record of success, quality of care and location and scope of
services offered by a host health care facility. The Company implements active
promotional programs and believes it is competitive in attracting referral
sources and patients based on these factors.

(xi) Research and Development

Inapplicable.

(xii) Government Regulation and or Environmental Protection

The health care industry is extensively regulated by federal, state and local
governments. Regulations which affect the Company relate to controlling the
growth of health care facilities, requiring licensure of the host health care
facility, requiring certification of the Program at the host facility and
controlling reimbursement for health care services. Licensure of facilities and
certification of Programs are state requirements, while certification for
Medicare is a federal requirement. Compliance with the licensure and
certification requirements is monitored by annual on-site inspections by
representatives of the licensing agencies. Loss of licensure or Medicare
certification by a host facility could result in termination of such contract.

Certificate of need ("CON") laws in some states require approval for capital
expenditures in excess of certain threshold amounts, expansion of bed capacity
or facilities, acquisition of medical equipment or institution of new services.
If a CON must be obtained, it may take up to 12 months to do so, and in some
instances longer, depending upon the state involved and whether the application
is contested by a competitor or the state agency. CON's usually are issued for

6
9
a specified maximum expenditure and require implementation of the proposed
improvement within a specified period of time. Certain states, including
California, Texas, Utah, Colorado and Arizona, have enacted legislation
repealing CON requirements for the construction of new health care facilities,
the expansion of existing facilities and the institution of new services. Some
states have enacted or have under legislative consideration "sunset" provisions
which require the review, modification or deletion of these statutes when no
longer needed. The Company is unable to predict whether such legislative
proposals will be enacted but believes that the elimination of CON requirements
positively impacts its business.

The Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations ("JCAHO"),
at a facility's request, will participate in the periodic surveys which are
conducted by state and local health agencies to ensure continuous compliance
with all licensing requirements by health care facilities. JCAHO accreditation
satisfies certain of the certification requirements for participation in the
Medicare and Medicaid programs. A facility found substantially to comply with
JCAHO standards receives accreditation. A patient's choice of a treatment
facility may be affected by JCAHO accreditation considerations because most
third-party payers limit coverage to services provided by an accredited
facility. All of the hospitals currently under contract with the Company have
received JCAHO accreditation.

The laws of various states in which the Company may choose to operate, including
California, generally prevent corporations from engaging in the practice of
medicine. These laws (e.g., Section 2052 of the California Business and
Professions Code), as well as applicable case law, were enacted to protect the
public from the rendering of unnecessary medical or other services for treatment
of the ill. Although the Company has not obtained a legal opinion, it believes
that the establishment and operation of Programs will not cause it to be engaged
in the "practice of medicine" as that term is used in such laws and regulations.
These laws and regulations are subject to interpretation and, accordingly, the
issue is not free from doubt. Since the Company has not sought or obtained any
rulings, there can be no assurance that state authorities or courts will not
determine that the Company is engaged in the unauthorized practice of medicine.
If such a determination is made and is not overturned, the Company would have to
terminate its operations in that state.

The Company's medical directors are engaged to provide administrative services,
including but not limited to planning the clinical program, supervising the
clinical staff, establishing standards of professional care, advising the
Company and staff on questions of policy. The co-medical directors conduct
public relations activities and assist the Company in marketing. Although the
Company has not obtained a legal opinion, it believes that the proposed
agreements between the Company and its medical and co-medical directors do not
violate any fee-sharing prohibitions. The federal prohibition, as it relates to
the Medicare program, is found at 42 U.S.C. 1320a-7b. Such prohibitions are
found in Section 650 of the California Business and Professional Code and
Section 445 of the California Health and Safety Code, as well as comparable
statutes in other states. However, future judicial, legislative or
administrative interpretations of these arrangements could prohibit the Company
from hiring professionals which could have a materially adverse effect on the
Company.

7
10
Given the recent political mandate for health care reform, it appears likely
that health care cost containment will occur. The Company is practiced in
administrating "managed care type" programs and is familiar with the pressures
of improving productivity and reducing costs.

(xiii) Employees

As of February 29, 1996, the Company employed 121 persons full-time and
fifty-two (52) persons part-time. Those figures do not include physicians and
psychiatrists who are medical directors of the Company's Programs and not
employees.

(d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales
Inapplicable.

ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES

The Company maintains its corporate offices in an approximately
2,200-square-foot suite of executive offices in Laguna Niguel, California, under
a lease agreement providing for a monthly base rent of $2,880 which expires June
30, 1996. The Company began leasing an additional satellite corporate office in
Playa Del Rey, California November 1, 1995 under a lease agreement providing for
a monthly base rent of $1,900 which expires October 31, 1996. The Company
believes that this office space is adequate for its reasonably foreseeable
needs. It is expected that the terms will be extended thereafter on similar
terms.

The Company has also leased space under five separate lease agreements for the
operation of its outpatient partial hospitalization programs. One agreement is
on a month to month basis. The remaining agreements expire September 30, 1996,
June 3, 1997, June 23, 1997 and June 30, 1997 respectively. The lease which
expires June 30, 1997 contains five (5) one (1) year options to extend the
lease. Aggregate monthly payments total $10,432,60 and are fully reimbursed
through subleases with the Company's host hospitals.

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

(a) Liquidity and Capital Resources

FISCAL YEAR 1995 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 1994.
At fiscal year end 1995 and 1994, the Company's working capital was $1,357,581
and $1,366,592 respectively. The nature of the Company's business requires
significant working capital to fund operations of its programs as well as to
fund corporate expenditures until receivables can be collected. Moreover,
because each of the existing contracts represents a significant portion of the
Company's business, the inability to collect any of the accounts receivable
could materially and adversely affect the Company's liquidity.

Cash flows from operations were $159,554 and ($191,639) for the years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The increase was primarily
attributable to increase in program accounts receivable due to an increase in
program volume.

Cash flows used in investing activities were ($215,196) and ($63,362) for the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The decrease in cash was
primarily attributable to deferred acquisition costs incurred in connection with
the proposed acquisitions of two companies performing complimentary mental
health services.

The cash flows from financing activities was $189,917 and ($13,973) for the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The increase was primarily
due to draws on the Company's line of credit agreement with a bank. The credit
agreement expires May 1, 1996, but is convertible into a one year term loan with
an initial due date of May 1, 1997 but with a five (5) year repayment schedule.
As of March 11, 1996, approximately $260,000 is available for future draws on of
the line of credit agreement. The Company's principal sources of liquidity for
the fiscal year 1996 are cash on hand, accounts receivable, the line of credit
with a bank and continuing revenues from programs.

FISCAL YEAR 1994 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 1993.
At fiscal year end 1994 and 1993, the Company's working capital was $1,366,592
and $968,542 respectively. The increase in working capital at December 31, 1994
over December 31, 1993 was primarily due to the increase in Program accounts
receivable due to the increase in Program volume. The nature of the Company's
business requires significant working capital to fund operations of its Programs
as well as to fund corporate expenditures until receivables can be collected.
Moreover, because each of the existing contracts represents a significant
portion of the Company's business, the inability to collect any of the accounts
receivable would materially and adversely affect the Company's liquidity. During
1994, the Company wrote off approximately $142,000 in billings to an entity who
leased facilities from a hospital which filed bankruptcy in June, 1994.




11
14
The Company's cash flow at fiscal year end 1994 declined due to the significant
increase in receivables. However, through March 7, 1995, the Company collected
approximately $1,000,000 against total receivables which existed at fiscal year
end 1994, thereby improving the Company cash position considerably.

(b) Results of Operations

FISCAL YEAR 1995 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 1994
The Company operated seventeen (17) programs during the year ended December 31,
1995 and sixteen (16) programs during the year ended December 31, 1994. The
Company currently has thirteen (13) operating programs. Net Revenues were
$6,027,122 and $5,596,283 for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994
respectively. The increase in revenues in 1995 over 1994 is due to the greater
number of total operating programs among years and a greater number of inpatient
psychiatric programs operating for a greater portion of 1995 versus 1994. The
Company typically earns a larger management fee on managing inpatient versus
partial hospitalization programs. In addition, the volume of patient days
treated through inpatient programs is greater than those treated through partial
hospitalization programs.

Cost of services provided were $5,022,040 and $4,238,555 for the years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994 respectively. The increase in the cost of services
provided among years is primarily due to the increase in program volume among
years and an expanded scope of services provided in connection with certain
contracts such as nursing, transportation and lease costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses have increased over the prior year
due to increased corporate marketing wages and activities, and various
professional fees incurred with the Company's contract and business acquisition
efforts.

The provision for uncollectible accounts decreased from the prior year due to
the termination of two contracts with one entity which leased facilities from a
hospital which filed bankruptcy in June, 1994.

Net income was $2,070 and $465,045 for the years ended December 31, 1995 and
1994, respectively. The decrease was primarily attributable to increased cost of
services provided and increased sales and marketing efforts.

The Company does not know of any events which are likely to materially change
the costs of operating its Programs; however, if the mix of individual operating
programs remains stable, and revenues increase significantly, gross profit
should rise favorably and disproportionately to the increase in cost for such
Programs. During 1995 and 1994, the mix of programs changed significantly.
Conversely, if the patient census and the resulting revenue decreases
(especially below the minimum break even level) costs will be disproportionately
high in relation thereto which would adversely impact the results of operations
and the Company's available resources. In that event, the Company may not have
enough operating capital to continue operations.

The Company's revenue is expected to increase in 1996 due to higher census under
existing contracts and a larger number of programs operational for the entire
year. Marketing plans for expanding the volume of the business by obtaining new
contracts for programs and expanding the scope of mental health services offered
by the acquisition of complementary businesses

12
15
currently exist. However, it is uncertain at this time, to what extent the
Company's fixed costs will be impacted by this expansion. Due to the Company's
dependence on a relatively small customer base presently consisting of only six
(6) hospitals, the loss of any of its customers could have a significant adverse
effect on the Company's operations. Hence, there is a special emphasis paragraph
in the report of the Company's independent audit of the financial statements for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995. In addition, the Company wrote off
approximately $36,000 in billings to one entity in 1995, and $142,000 in
billings to one hospital in 1994.

FISCAL YEAR 1994 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 1993.
The Company operated sixteen (16) Programs during the year ended December 31,
1994 and fourteen (14) Programs during the year ended December 31, 1993. The
increase in revenues in 1994 over 1993 is due to the greater number of operating
Programs among years, and increased volume at the individual Programs. This
increase was compounded due to the fact that a majority of the new Programs
which were opened in 1993 were opened during the latter half of the year.

The increase in the cost of services provided among years is directly due to the
increase in revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased over the prior year due
to increased wages and benefits resulting from the addition of a Vice President
of Corporate Marketing and Development in 1994, as well as an executive bonus
program based on the Company's profits.

The provision for uncollectible accounts increased over the prior year due to
the termination of two contracts with one entity which leased facilities from a
hospital which filed bankruptcy in June, 1994.

(b) Compensation Pursuant to Plans

Stock Option Plans

The Company's 1987 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), adopted by the Board of
Directors on July 28, 1987, and approved by the stockholders on August 28, 1987,
provides for the grant to officers, directors, employees and consultants of
nonqualified stock options and stock options to employees that qualify as
incentive stock options under Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
The Plan terminates on July 28, 1997. The purpose of the Plan is to enable the
Company to attract and retain qualified persons as employees, officers and
directors and others whose services are required by the Company, and to motivate
such persons by providing them with an equity participation in the Company. A
maximum of 455,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock were reserved for
issuance pursuant to the Plan. Options to purchase 19,000 shares were exercised
during fiscal year ended December 31, 1995. There are currently 317,500 shares
subject to options outstanding under the Plan. The Plan is administered by the
Board of Directors, which has, subject to specified limitations, the full
authority to grant options and establish the terms and conditions under which
they may be exercised.

The exercise price of incentive stock options granted under the Plan is required
to be not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of
grant (110% in the case of a greater than 10% stockholder). The exercise price
of nonqualified stock options can be no less than 85% of the fair market value
on the date of grant, although the Company does not intend to grant any such
stock options at less than fair market value. In the discretion of the Board,
the exercise price may be payable in cash, by delivery of a promissory note or
in Common Stock of the Company.

The options are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment or other
relationship with the Company except by reason of death or disability and are
nonassignable. Options may be granted for terms up to 10 years (five years in
the case of incentive stock options granted to greater than 10% stockholders).
No optionee may be granted incentive stock options such that the fair market
value of the options which first become exercisable in any one calendar year
exceeds $100,000. Options granted under the Plan to officers, employees or
consultants may be exercised only while the optionee is employed or retained by
the Company or within six (6) months after termination of the employment or
consulting relationship by reason of death or permanent disability, and three
months after termination for any other reason.

On December 31, 1991, the Board of Directors granted additional options under
the Plan to Edward A. Johnson to purchase 27,500 shares and Michael S. Callison
to purchase 25,000 shares. The option exercise price is $ .21 per share. The
options have a five year term and vest immediately. On August 23, 1993, the
Board of Directors granted additional options under the Plan to Michael S.
Callison to purchase 25,000 shares and Gary L. Dreher to purchase 25,000 shares.
The option exercise price is $ .30 per share. The options have a five year term
and vest immediately.

On December 20, 1994, the Board of Directors re-adopted the Company's 1994 stock
option plan. The plan was approved by the stockholders on December 22, 1995 and
provides for the grant to officers, directors, employees and consultants of
nonqualified stock options and stock options to employees that qualify as
incentive stock options under Section 422A of the Internal Revenue

17
20
Code of 1986. The Plan terminates on March 22, 2004. The purpose of the Plan is
to enable the Company to attract and retain qualified persons as employees,
officers and directors and others whose services are required by the Company,
and to motivate such persons by providing them with an equity participation in
the Company. A maximum of 500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock were
reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan. Options to purchase an aggregate of
250,000 shares were granted during fiscal year ended December 31, 1995 including
options under the Plan to Jon E. Jenett to purchase 25,000 shares. The option
exercise price is $.93 per share. The options have a five year term and vest
immediately. No options were exercised during fiscal year ended December 31,
1995. There are currently 475,000 shares subject to option outstanding under the
Plan. The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors, which has, subject to
specified limitations, the full authority to grant options and establish the
terms and conditions under which they may be exercised.

The exercise price of incentive stock options granted under the Plan is required
to be not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of
grant (110% in the case of a greater than 10% stockholder). The exercise price
of nonqualified stock options can be no less than 85% of the fair market value
on the date of grant, although the Company does not intend to grant any such
stock options at less than fair market value. In the discretion of the Board,
the exercise price may be payable in cash, by delivery of a promissory note or
in Common Stock of the Company.

The options are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment or other
relationship with the Company except by reason of death or disability and are
nonassignable. Options may be granted for terms up to 10 years (five years in
the case of incentive stock options granted incentive stock options such that
the fair market value of the options which first become exercisable in any one
calendar year exceeds $100,000. Options granted under the Plan to officers,
employees or consultants may be exercised only while the optionee is employed or

employment or consulting relationship by reason of death or permanent
disability, and three months after termination for any reason.

=======================================================================================================



* Present values were calculated using the Black-Scholes options pricing
model which should not be viewed in any way as a forecast of the future
performance of the Company's stock. The estimated present value of each
stock option is $.35 based on the following inputs:




Stock Price (Fair Market Value) at Grant (8/8/95) $ .9375
Exercise Price .93
Expected Option Term 5 years
Risk-Free Interest Rate 6.25%
Stock Price Volatility 14%
Dividend Yield 0%


The model assumes: (a) an Expected Option Term of 5 years which
reflects the actual life of the option; (b) a Risk-Free Interest Rate
that represents the interest rate on a U.S. Treasury Note with a
maturity date corresponding to that of the Expected Option Term; and
(c) Stock Price Volatility is calculated using quarterly stock prices
over the period from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1995.

(c) Other Compensation

In Addition to all other options held by him, Mr. Johnson received on
December 31, 1991, five years options to purchase 222,500 shares of the
Company's Common Stock. The option exercise price is $.21 per share.
The options have a five year term and vest immediately. The shares
issuable upon exercise of these options are subject to certain
restrictions. The Company has also obtained life insurance on the life
of Mr. Johnson in the amount of $2,000,000, $1,000,000 for the benefit
of the Company and $1,000,000 for the benefit of his estate.

(d) Compensation of Directors

Directors do not receive compensation for their services although they
are entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred in attending board
meetings. Michael S. Callison received $84,000 of wages as Vice
President of Marketing and Development in 1995. Mr. Dreher received
$20,000 in marketing fees during 1995 for the marketing of the
Company's programs to the hospitals during 1995.

(e) BOARD COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The entire Board of Directors is responsible for determining the Chief
Executive Officer's compensation. The Board's philosophy has been to
offer a stable base salary plus a monthly bonus based on a percentage
of corporate monthly profits before income taxes.

The committee's approach to base compensation is to offer competitive
salaries in comparison with market practices. However, base salaries
have become a relatively smaller element in the total executive officer
compensation package as the Company has introduced incentive
compensation programs which it believes reinforce strategic performance
objectives.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


The Stockholders and Board of Directors
OptimumCare Corporation

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of OptimumCare Corporation as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of income, stockholders'
equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1995. Our audits also included the financial statements and schedule listed
in the index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedule are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, the Company is dependent
upon a small number of contracts, the loss of any of which could have a
significant adverse effect on the Company's operations.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of OptimumCare Corporation at
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.

OptimumCare Corporation

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 1995

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

OptimumCare Corporation (the Company) develops, markets and manages
hospital-based programs for the treatment of psychiatric disorders on both an
inpatient and outpatient basis. The Company's programs are currently being
marketed in the United States, principally California, to independent acute
general hospitals and other health care facilities.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less, when purchased to be cash equivalents.

FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT

Furniture and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the
straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the related
assets.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company's trade name became registered during December 1990. It is recorded
at cost and is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 10 years using
the straight-line method. Accumulated amortization is $1,020 and $816 as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenues are recognized in the period services are provided and are recorded net
of contractual adjustments representing the difference between standard rates
and estimated net realizable amounts under reimbursement agreements with
customers.

INCOME TAXES

Effective January 1, 1993, the Company changed its method of accounting for
income taxes from the deferred method to the liability method required by FASB
Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. As permitted under the new
rules, prior year's financial statements have not been restated. The cumulative
effort of adopting Statement No. 109 as of January 1, 1993 was not material.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)



1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

NET INCOME PER SHARE

Net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding, giving effect to common stock equivalents arising from stock
options, of 5,432,748, 5,239,163 and 5,139,080 in 1995, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
about the future that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.
These estimates include assessing the collectibility of accounts receivable, the
usage and recoverability of long-lived assets. The actual results could differ
from those estimates.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

8. MAJOR CUSTOMERS

Four of the Company's hospitals accounted for $4,726,068 and five of the
Company's hospitals accounted for $4,670,236 of net revenue in 1995 and 1994,
respectively. In addition, these hospitals accounted for approximately
$1,080,633 and $1,467,940 of accounts receivable at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. As the Company is dependent upon a small number of hospitals, the
loss of any contract could have a significant adverse effect on the Company's
operations. Management intends to use its best efforts to retain existing
contracts and expand the scope of services on these contracts, obtain new
contracts, and maintain patient census at the same or higher levels than has
historically been experienced.

9. DEFERRED ACQUISITION COSTS

Deferred acquisition costs consist of the direct cost of fees paid to outside
consultants and other professionals incurred in assisting with the proposed
acquisitions of Psychological Healthcare, Inc. and Care Source Inc. The specific
terms of the proposed purchases have not yet been finalized. In the event the
acquisitions are not consummated these items will be expensed. The Company plans
to amortize all acquisition costs over the useful life of the Psychological
Healthcare and Care Source products and services.
