Amendments to Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Incentive Plan
This document amends the Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Incentive Plan. It allows grantees of Nonqualified Options to pay the purchase price or satisfy tax withholding requirements by authorizing the company to withhold whole shares of company stock, instead of paying in cash, but only before the completion of a specified merger. Any fractional shares are disregarded, and the remaining amount must be paid in cash. These amendments were adopted by the Board of Directors in August 2008.

In addition, in lieu of paying the purchase price upon the exercise of a Nonqualified Option in cash or in Common Shares of the Company, a grantee of a Nonqualified Option may pay the purchase price of the shares subject to such Nonqualified Option by authorizing the Company to withhold whole Common Shares of the Company that would otherwise be delivered to the grantee, valued at their fair market value on the date of exercise, in an amount not in excess of the aggregate purchase price (or the portion thereof elected by the grantee); provided, however, that such authority to authorize the withholding of Common Shares shall only apply in connection with the exercise of Nonqualified Options prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of March 17, 2008 by and among Misys plc, Misys Healthcare Systems, LLC, Allscripts Healthcare Solutions Inc. and Patriot Merger Company, LLC (the Merger Agreement).
