Some of these factors are described in the Safe Harbor statement below.

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this document may constitute forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These statements include those concerning the consummation of the acquisition and, if consummated, its potential benefits and effects, including but not limited to any expectations as to profitability of the combined company.

While these statements reflect our current judgment, they are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ significantly from projected results due to a number of factors, including, the soundness of ProxyMed’s business strategies relative to the perceived market opportunities; ProxyMed’s ability to
