WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the merger of the Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”) in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “DGCL”) and the Business Corporation Law of 1988 of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “BCL”) and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, whereby each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”), other than shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, and other than “Dissenting Shares” (as defined in Section 2.04 below), will be converted into the right to receive the “Cash Merger Consideration” (as defined in Section 2.01), which in the aggregate represents $28,000,000 for all outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, the “Adjustment Amount” (as defined in Section 2.02) and the “Contingent Additional Consideration” (as defined in Section 2.03), as provided for herein;

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as a condition and inducement to Parent’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, Parent and certain stockholders of the Company are entering into a voting agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) pursuant to which such stockholders agree to vote to approve the Merger and the “Former Subsidiaries Distribution” (as identified in Section 6.09(a) of this Agreement) and adopt this Agreement, and to take certain other actions in furtherance of the Merger upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Voting Agreement, including the condition that the stockholders of the Company have approved for purposes of Section 280G of the Code certain payments being made to officers of the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

SECTION 1.01. The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL and the BCL, the Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, as it shall exist subsequent to the Former Subsidiaries Distribution, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.03). Following the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of the Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

SECTION 1.02. Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m. (Washington, D.C. time) at the offices of Muldoon Murphy & Aguggia LLP, 5101 Wisconsin Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. on a date to be specified by the parties hereto (the “Closing Date”), which shall be no later than the tenth business day after satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions), unless another time, date or place is agreed to by the parties hereto.

SECTION 1.03. Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, as soon as practicable on or after the Closing Date, the parties shall (i) file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Certificate of Merger”) executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL, (ii) file articles of merger with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (the “Articles of Merger”) executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the BCL, and (iii) make all other filings or recordings required by applicable law in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at such time as both a properly executed and certified copy of the Articles of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in accordance with the BCL and a properly executed and certified copy of the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the DGCL or at such later date or time as is agreed upon by the parties and specified in the Articles of Merger and Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”).

SECTION 1.04. Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects as provided in this Agreement, the Articles of Merger, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DGCL and BCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time all the property rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 1.05. Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation. (a) At the Effective Time, the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended in their entirety to read as set forth in the Articles of Merger, until thereafter amended, as provided by law and such Articles of Incorporation.

(b) Unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, the By-laws of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the By-laws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and such By-laws.

SECTION 1.06. Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation. (a) The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

(b) The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

ARTICLE II

CONVERSION OF SHARES; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

SECTION 2.01. Conversion of Company Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Subject to Section 2.02 and Section 2.04, each issued and outstanding share of Company Common Stock (other than shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.01(b)) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive $5.2424 in cash without interest thereon (based on the assumption that there will be 5,341,063.57 shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding), as adjusted by the Adjustment Amount governed by Section 2.02 (the “Cash Merger Consideration”) and the Contingent Additional Consideration, as defined in Section 2.03. The Cash Merger Consideration and the Contingent Additional Consideration collectively are referred to as the “Merger Consideration.” As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest.

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock owned by Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned

subsidiary of Parent or held in the treasury of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.

(c) Merger Sub Common Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one (1) share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 2.02. Adjustment Amount.

(a) Adjustment Amount. The Adjustment Amount (which may be a positive or a negative number) will be that amount equal to the “Closing Net Working Capital,” as defined below, divided by the number of issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of the Effective Time which are entitled to Merger Consideration. The Cash Merger Consideration will be reduced by the amount of any negative adjustment amount and increased by any positive adjustment amount.

(b) Closing Net Working Capital. The “Closing Net Working Capital” will be determined based on the pro forma balance sheet (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”) of the Company as provided by Section 2.02(c) and prepared in accordance with GAAP, using the format attached as Attachment I, as follows:

(i) The amount of the following current assets: cash and cash equivalents, fees and commissions receivable, and prepaid and other assets;

minus

(ii) Total liabilities.

For purposes of this calculation, current assets includable in (i) above will be deemed to include the amount of the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) Loan, as identified in Section 6.14, to be repaid to the Company unless such ESOP Loan has been repaid; and appropriate adjustments will be made for doubtful receivables including rebates receivable; and total liabilities in (ii) above will include only indebtedness for borrowed money, accounts payable and any accrued tax liability as a result of the disposition of “Former Subsidiaries”, as defined in Section 3.01, pursuant to the Former Subsidiaries Distribution.

(c) Pro Forma Balance Sheet. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet, prepared in accordance with GAAP, using the format attached as Attachment I, shall show, as of a date within five business days prior to the Closing Date and as adjusted to reflect any transactions and events to occur prior to the Effective Time (including adjustments to reflect the Former Subsidiaries Distribution and related transactions), a balance sheet of

the Company (consolidated with EBRx) prepared in accordance with GAAP and applying the same accounting principles, policies and practices that were used in preparing the balance sheet of the Company as of May 31, 2005 included in the financial statements included in Section 3.07(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. The Company shall deliver the Pro Forma Balance Sheet to the Parent at least two business days prior to the Closing Date.

SECTION 2.03. Contingent Additional Consideration. The Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) will pay to the person to whom Merger Consideration is to be paid in accordance with section 2.06 the “Contingent Additional Consideration” as determined from and in accordance with the provisions of the “Determination of Contingent Additional Consideration” attached as Exhibit C hereto.

SECTION 2.04. Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each share of Company Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that is held by a stockholder who has not voted in favor of the Merger and who has properly exercised and otherwise perfected dissenters rights pursuant to the BCL and does not withdraw or lose the right to appraisal and payment made under the BCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or exchangeable for the right to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration, but shall be entitled to receive such consideration as shall be determined pursuant to the BCL; provided, however, that if such stockholder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses the right to appraisal and payment under the BCL, each share of Company Common Stock held by such stockholder shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, upon surrender, in the manner provided in Section 2.06, of the certificate or certificates that formerly evidenced such shares. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the BCL and received by the Company and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the BCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

SECTION 2.05. Anti-Dilution Provisions. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in the event the Company changes the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time as a result of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, redenomination of share capital or other similar transaction, the Merger Consideration shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect such stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, redenomination of share capital or other similar transaction. The parties acknowledge that the issuance of 460,000 additional shares of Company Common Stock prior to the Closing of the Merger to certain members of the Company’s management team shall not trigger such an adjustment.

SECTION 2.06. Surrender of Shares. (a) Prior to the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall designate a bank or trust company to act as agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the holders of shares of Company Common Stock to receive the Cash Merger Consideration to which such holders shall become entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a). On or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock for payment in accordance with this Article II through the Paying Agent, cash required to pay the aggregate Cash Merger Consideration. Such funds shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time, but in any event no later than five business days after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be mailed to each person who was, at the Effective Time, a holder of record of shares of Company Common Stock entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(a) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the certificates evidencing such shares of Company Common Stock (the “Certificates”) shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent), which shall be in customary form and shall have such other conditions as Parent may reasonably specify and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates pursuant to such letter of transmittal. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of a Certificate, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefore the Cash Merger Consideration for each share of Company Common Stock formerly evidenced by such Certificate, and such Certificate shall then be canceled. No interest shall accrue or be paid on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of any Certificate for the benefit of the holder of such Certificate. If the payment equal to the Cash Merger Consideration is to be made to a person other than the person in whose name the surrendered Certificate formerly evidencing shares of Company Common Stock is registered on the stock transfer books of the Company, it shall be a condition of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be endorsed properly or otherwise be in proper form for transfer, accompanied by all documents required to effect such transfer and the ownership of such shares by such transferor and evidence that all transfer and other taxes required by reason of the payment of the Cash Merger Consideration to a person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered have been paid, or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such taxes either have been paid or are not applicable.

(c) Rights to any Contingent Additional Consideration. The persons (including the ESOP) to whom the Cash Merger Consideration is paid shall be entitled to any Contingent Additional Consideration as provided in this Agreement. The Cash Merger Consideration paid upon conversion of the shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof and the rights provided herein to any Contingent Additional Consideration shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock.

(d) Return of Funds. At any time following the sixth month after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds which had been made available to the Paying Agent and not disbursed to holders of shares of Company Common Stock (including, without limitation, all interest and other income received by the Paying Agent in respect of all funds made available to it), and, thereafter, such holders shall be entitled to look to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar Law) only as general creditors thereof with respect to any Cash Merger Consideration that may be payable upon due surrender of the Certificates held by them.

(e) No Liability. Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock in respect of any Merger Consideration that is delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered prior to six months after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity (as defined in Section 3.05(b)), any such Merger Consideration, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, will become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Withholding. Each of the Surviving Corporation, Parent and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any provision of any state, local or foreign tax law, with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of shares of Company Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, as the case may be.

(g) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon.

SECTION 2.07. Stock Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and, thereafter, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock theretofore outstanding on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to

have any rights with respect to such shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented thereby, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by Law.

ARTICLE III

Each of the Company, the Company Subsidiary and the Former Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification or licensing or good standing necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified or licensed and in good standing that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or prevent or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Section 3.01(b) of the disclosure schedule delivered by the Company to Parent prior to the execution of this Agreement (the “Company Disclosure Schedule”) sets forth a true and complete list of all subsidiaries of the Company, including the Former Subsidiaries.

(e) Prior to the Former Subsidiaries Distribution, the Company agrees to cause the Former Subsidiaries Holding Company (or the Former Subsidiaries) to:

(i) agree for a period of three (3) years from and after the Effective Time that none of the Former Subsidiaries Holding Company or the Former Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates shall (i) engage, directly or indirectly, in the business of owning, operating, administering, managing or providing consulting services, financial assistance or any other form of assistance or advice to, a pharmacy benefit management business (whether or not for profit) and/or a pharmacy, including a mail order pharmacy, (whether or not for profit) that competes with the Company or EBRx or any of their Affiliates (including, without limitation, the Parent); or (ii) disrupt or attempt to disrupt, or otherwise interfere with, the relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Company or EBRx or any of its Affiliates (including, without limitation, the Parent) on the one hand, and any of their respective customers, suppliers, health care providers or employees, on the other hand.

(ii) agree to provide any requisite notices to affected employees under the WARN Act and to comply with any other State and Federal labor laws if it terminates the employment of any employees; and

Additionally, the unallocated shares attributable to ESOP Loan quarterly repayments that occurred following the May 31, 2005 allocation shall be allocated to ESOP participants in accordance with the terms of the ESOP plan document.

Subject to the terms of the ESOP and applicable Law, (i) the Merger Consideration received by the ESOP Trustee(s) in connection with the Merger with respect to the unallocated Company Shares shall first be applied to the full repayment of the loan from the Company to the ESOP (the “ESOP Loan”); (ii) the balance of the unallocated Company Shares shall be allocated as earnings to the accounts of all ESOP participants and beneficiaries, in accordance with the ESOP’s terms and conditions in effect as of the termination date, to the maximum extent permitted under the Code and applicable law; (iii) the accounts of all participants and beneficiaries in the ESOP as of the date of termination shall become fully vested as of the ESOP termination date in accordance with the ESOP’s terms and conditions in effect as of the termination date, to the maximum extent permitted under the Code and applicable law; (iv) as soon as practicable after the date hereof, the Company shall file or cause to be filed all necessary documents with the IRS for a determination letter for termination of the ESOP; and (v) as soon as practicable after the later of the Effective Time or the receipt of a favorable determination letter for termination from the IRS (provided, however, that if the ESOP Trustees so elect, as soon as practicable following the payment of any Contingent Additional Consideration, if later), the account balances in the ESOP shall be: (A) distributed to participants and beneficiaries; (B) transferred to an eligible individual retirement account designated by the ESOP participants and beneficiaries; or (C) transferred to another qualified defined contribution plan or other “eligible retirement plan” as defined under the Code.

The Former Subsidiaries Holding Company will adopt such additional amendments to the ESOP as may be reasonably required by the IRS subsequent to the Effective Time as a condition to granting such favorable determination and termination letters provided that such amendments do not substantially change the terms outlined herein or would result in an additional material liability to the Former Subsidiaries Holding Company. Neither the Company nor the Former Subsidiaries Holding Company shall

make any distributions from the ESOP except as may be permitted or required by applicable Law until receipt of such favorable determination letter (provided, however, that if the ESOP Trustees so elect, as soon as practicable following the payment of any Contingent Additional Consideration, if later).

EXHIBIT C

Determination of Contingent Additional Consideration

The Contingent Additional Consideration provided for by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated as of December 6, 2005, among HealthExtras, Inc., and HCEM Corp., and Managed Care of America, Inc. to which this Determination of Contingent Additional Consideration (this “Determination”) is attached as Exhibit C, shall be determined and distributed as provided by this Determination. In accordance with Section 6.12 of the Merger Agreement, the Shareholder Representatives have been designated by the Company prior to the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement to have the responsibility vested in them pursuant to this Determination with respect to the Contingent Additional Consideration possibly payable to the shareholders of the Company as of the Effective Time of the Merger entitled to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Merger Agreement (the “Entitled Persons”). Capitalized terms used in this Determination without definition shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement.

SECTION 1. Payment of Contingent Additional Consideration. (a) If the “EBRx Requirements”, as set forth in Section 2 hereof, are satisfied, the Parent or the Surviving Corporation will distribute, to the Entitled Persons the Contingent Additional Consideration, if any, multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock for which such person was entitled to Cash Merger Consideration, in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 hereof.

(b) The amount of “Contingent Additional Consideration,” if any, assuming satisfaction of the EBRx Requirements, is:

(i)

$3,000,000 minus (a) the amount of any Claims, as defined in Section 3 hereof and (b) the Representative Expenses as defined in paragraph (c) below;

(ii)

divided by the number of issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of the Effective Time which are entitled to Merger Consideration.

(c) Prior to the distribution of any Contingent Additional Consideration, the Shareholder Representatives shall be entitled to receive reimbursement from the amount otherwise to be distributed under this Determination for any fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of their duties under this Determination, including those fees incurred under Section 2(c) (the “Representative Expenses”). Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) shall reimburse such Representative Expenses directly to the Shareholder Representatives immediately prior to the distribution of any Contingent Additional Consideration to the extent such Representative Expenses are less than $3,000,000 minus the amount of any Claims, as defined in Section 3 hereof.

SECTION 2. EBRx Requirements.

(a) The “EBRx Requirements” shall be satisfied if the following criteria are achieved as of December 31, 2006 based on financial statements of EBRx as of and for the twelve months then ended, which financial statements shall be prepared on or before January 31, 2007 (the “Requirement Calculation Date”):

(i)

EBRx, Inc. (“EBRx”) still has at least four of its top eight clients (“Top Eight Clients”) under contract and neither the Company nor any Shareholder Representative has been notified in writing or orally that any such remaining Top Eight Client intends to terminate or significantly revise its contractual relation with EBRx in a manner adverse to EBRx (but excluding a contractual change that would transition any such client to the EBRx transparent pricing model) such that after such transition EBRx would no longer have at least four of its Top Eight Clients. The Top Eight Clients are to be determined based on the calendar year 2005 gross margin (in a dollar amount) of EBRx derived from revenues earned in the ordinary course of EBRx’s business through recurring transactions, with such gross margin to be calculated in the same manner as reflected in the EBRx historical financial statements excluding the client identified as UPM; and

(ii)

(A) The combined “Gross Margin Dollars” of EBRx from all clients over the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2006 is greater than 110% of the combined Gross Margin Dollars of EBRx from all clients over the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2005; and either (B) at least four of the Top Eight Clients have, individually, Gross Margin Dollars for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2006 greater than 60% of its corresponding individual Gross Margin Dollars for the corresponding twelve-month period ending December 31, 2005; or EBRx’s combined Gross Margin Dollars for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2006 from all clients is greater than 120% of EBRx’s combined Gross Margin Dollars from all clients for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2005. Gross Margin Dollars means (i) the revenues attributable to client billings, including without limitation all amounts related to prescription drugs, charges, fees and other amounts, related to prescription drugs in the ordinary course of EBRx’s business, less (ii) payments due to pharmacies, broker commissions, rebate expense, access fees and transaction fees plus (iii) rebates earned net of amounts due to clients.

(b) In the event that as of September 30, 2006 EBRx has (x) satisfied subsection (a)(i) above and (y) achieved a multiple of 140% of the Gross Margin Dollars targets detailed in subsection (a)(ii) as calculated on an annualized basis based upon the nine-month period then ended, then the EBRx Requirements shall be deemed satisfied as of September 30, 2006. These calculations shall be based on financial statements for EBRx for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 which shall be prepared on or before October 15, 2006. If the EBRx Requirements are deemed satisfied pursuant to this subsection (b), the “Requirement Calculation

Date” referenced in this Determination shall refer to the date such financial statements are delivered (which in no event shall be later than October 15, 2006) in lieu of its definition in subsection (a).

(c) On or prior to 5 days after the Requirement Calculation Date, Parent or the Surviving Corporation or EBRx shall notify the Shareholder Representatives whether the EBRx Requirements have been satisfied as of the Requirement Calculation Date and provide the calculation of the EBRx Requirements (the “Requirement Date Calculation Notice”). If within 15 days of receiving such notice, Shareholder Representatives provide notice to Parent and the Surviving Corporation that they disagree with Parent’s determination whether the EBRx Requirements have been satisfied, then Parent and the Shareholder Representatives shall submit the dispute to McKeever Varga and Associates, independent accountants (the “Independent Accountants”) that have historically audited the books and records of EBRx in conjunction with its independent audit of the Company. If the issue of whether the EBRx Requirements have been satisfied is submitted to the Independent Accountants for resolution then, (i) the Shareholder Representatives and Parent shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Independent Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the dispute as the Independent Accountants may request and are available to that party or its agents and shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accountants any material relating to the dispute and to discuss the dispute with the Independent Accountants; and (ii) the Independent Accountants shall determine whether the EBRx Requirement has been satisfied and set forth such determination in a notice (the “Independent Accountant Determination Notice”) to be delivered to the Shareholder Representatives and the Parent within 10 days of the submission to the Independent Accountants of the dispute. Such determination by the Independent Accountant shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties. Each of the Parent and the Shareholder Representatives will bear one-half of the fees and expenses for the Independent Accountant and all costs and fees incurred by such person in connection with submitting the dispute to the Independent Accountants; provided that, if the Independent Accountant determines that the EBRx Requirements have been satisfied, then Parent shall pay all of the fees and expenses for the Independent Accountant and the Shareholder Representatives’ reasonable expenses and fees.

SECTION 3. Claims.

(a) From time to time on or before the Requirement Calculation Date, Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) may give notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Shareholder Representatives specifying in reasonable detail the nature and the dollar (or estimated maximum dollar) amount of any claim (a “Claim”) for Losses (as defined below) suffered or incurred by Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) as a result of, or with respect to (i) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty set forth in the Merger Agreement and (ii) any breach of or noncompliance by the Company with any covenant or agreement of the Company contained in the Merger Agreement. Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) may make more than one Claim with respect to any underlying state of facts. If, at the time Parent delivers a Claim Notice, Parent is able to identify, in its discretion, the dollar amount of the Claim, the Claim is a “Quantifiable Claim”, and if the Parent is unable, in its sole discretion, to specifically quantify at

that time the dollar amount of the Claim that Parent has as a result of the facts underlying such Claim, the Claim is a “Non-quantifiable Claim”, in which case the Parent shall provide an estimated maximum amount of such Nonquantifiable Claim in the Claim Notice.

(b) “Loss” shall mean any loss, damage, liability, cost or expense including, without limitation, any interest, fine, penalty, criminal or civil judgment or settlement, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ and expert witnesses’ fees, reasonable accountants’ fees, disbursements and expenses, and any indemnification or similar payments required to be made to officers, directors, employees or agents under duly enacted charter provisions or bylaws, board resolutions or undertakings, commitments or other understandings or under applicable corporate law, together with interest thereon from the later of the Closing Date and the date suffered or incurred.

SECTION 4. Payment Procedure. Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) shall distribute the Contingent Additional Consideration (if the EBRx Requirements are satisfied) to the Entitled Persons as follows:

(a) If no Claim Notice is delivered by Parent (or the Surviving Corporation), the Contingent Additional Consideration shall be distributed within 10 days after a determination that the EBRx Requirement has been satisfied either by the Parent’s determination or the Independent Accountant Determination Notice;

(b) If a Claim Notice is delivered by Parent (or the Surviving Corporation), the Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) shall make a distribution, on the same date as a distribution would be made pursuant to paragraph (a) above, to the extent, if any, that the Contingent Additional Consideration (which is an amount after giving effect to the reduction required by Quantifiable Claims) exceeds the estimated maximum amount of any Non-Quantifiable Claims, if there is any such excess;

(c) If there is a Non-Quantifiable Claim, when the Parent (or Surviving Corporation) is reasonably able, in its discretion, to determine the amount of the Claim, the Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) shall give a “Revised Claim Notice” to the Shareholder Representatives. As promptly as possible thereafter, the Parent (or Surviving Corporation) shall make a distribution of any remaining Contingent Additional Consideration (after previous distributions and the amount of such Claim) to the extent, if any, that such Contingent Additional Consideration exceeds the estimated maximum amount of any other remaining Non-Quantifiable Claims.

SECTION 5. Conduct of Business of the Company Subsidiary. Except as provided below, from the Effective Time until the earlier of March 30, 2007 or the payment of all amounts due and owing pursuant to Stock Purchase and Stockholder Agreement: (i) The business of EBRx shall be conducted in the ordinary course of its business and in a manner consistent with past practices, and the current management will be permitted to continue to operate EBRx in a manner materially consistent with past practices, subject to the reasonable limitations that Parent

may modify or terminate such authority in order to prevent or remedy illegal acts or omissions, or other behavior reasonably interpreted as inappropriate in the industry; (ii) The Parent and the Company Subsidiary will use their reasonable best efforts to preserve and promote the business of EBRx; and (iii) Parent will consult with the management of EBRx regarding the operations of EBRx and expansion of its business on a regular basis and will not reject the recommendations of the management of EBRx without a reasonable basis.

SECTION 6. Benefit of Parties. All of the terms and provisions of this Determination shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. The rights and obligations under this Determination shall not be assignable by Parent (or the Surviving Corporation) or the Shareholder Representatives, but their rights and obligations may be assumed by their respective legal successors.

SECTION 7. Cooperation. Each party will cooperate with and assist the other party in taking such acts as may be appropriate to enable all parties to effect compliance with the terms of this Agreement and to carry out the true intent and purposes hereof.

SECTION 8. Notices. All notices, Consents, waivers and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given to a party when (a) delivered to the appropriate address by hand or by a nationally recognized overnight courier service (costs prepaid); (b) sent by facsimile or e-mail (with confirmation by the transmitting equipment); or (c) received by the addressee, if sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, in each case to the following addresses and facsimile numbers and marked to the attention of the person (by name or title) designated below (or to such other address, facsimile number or person as a party may designate by notice to the other parties):

SECTION 9. Withholding. The Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Contingent Additional Consideration otherwise payable to any person pursuant to this Determination such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any provision of any state, local or foreign tax law, with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Determination and the Merger Agreement as having been paid to the person entitled to the Contingent Additional Consideration in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made by the Parent or Surviving Corporation, as the case may be.
