PART I
 
ITEM 1.   BUSINESS
 
United American Healthcare Corporation (the “Company” or “UAHC”) was incorporated in Michigan on December 1, 1983 and commenced operations in May 1985. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the Company indicated herein shall mean United American Healthcare Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.
 
History
 
From November 1993 to June 2009, the Company’s indirect, wholly owned subsidiary, UAHC Health Plan of Tennessee, Inc. (“UAHC-TN”), was a managed care organization in the TennCare program, a State of Tennessee program that provided medical benefits to Medicaid and working uninsured recipients. On April 22, 2008, the Company learned that UAHC-TN would no longer be authorized to provide managed care services as a TennCare contractor when its present TennCare contract expired on June 30, 2009. UAHC-TN’s TennCare members transferred to other managed care organizations on November 1, 2008, after which UAHC-TN continued to perform its remaining contractual obligations through its TennCare contract expiration date of June 30, 2009. However, revenue under this contract was only earned through October 31, 2008.
 
From January 2007 to December 2009, UAHC-TN served as a Medicare Advantage qualified organization (the “Medicare contract”) pursuant to a contract with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The contract authorized UAHC-TN to serve members enrolled in both the Tennessee Medicaid and Medicare programs, commonly referred to as “dual-eligibles,” specifically to offer a Special Needs Plan to its eligible members in Shelby County, Tennessee (including the City of Memphis), and to operate a Voluntary Medicare Prescription Drug Plan. The Company did not seek renewal of the Medicare contract, which expired December 31, 2009. The Company is continuing to wind down the Medicare business and expects to continue to incur costs related to the Medicare business through December 31, 2010, including labor, claim processing and the differential costs related to Tennessee facility sublease. These costs are expected to approximate $0.1 million to $0.2 million.
 
The discontinuance of the TennCare and Medicare contracts had a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations, earnings, financial condition and cash flows in fiscal 2009 and 2010.
 
Acquisition of Pulse Systems, LLC
 
On June 18, 2010, UAHC entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and a Warrant Purchase Agreement to acquire 100% of the outstanding common units and warrants to purchase common units of Pulse. The consideration paid to acquire the common units and warrants of Pulse totaled approximately $9.46 million, which consisted of (a) cash paid at closing of $3.40 million, (b) a non-interest bearing note payable of $1.75 million (secured by a subordinated pledge of all the common units of Pulse), (c) 1,608,039 shares of UAHC common stock determined based on an initial value of $1.6 million, (d) an estimated purchase price adjustment of $210,364 based on targeted levels of net working capital, cash and debt of Pulse at the acquisition date (e) and the funding of $2.5 million for certain obligations of Pulse as discussed below. The shares of UAHC common stock were issued on July 12, 2010, upon approval by the UAHC board of directors on July 7, 2010. The shares of UAHC common stock had a fair value of $1.05 million as of June 30, 2010, and a fair value of $884,000 on July 12, 2010, the date the shares were issued and recorded. The Company also assumed Pulse’s term loan to a bank of $4.25 million, after making a payment at closing as discussed below.
 
In connection with the acquisition of the Pulse common units, Pulse entered into a redemption agreement with the holders of its preferred units to redeem the preferred units for $3.99 million. Pulse is only allowed to redeem the preferred units if UAHC makes additional cash equity contributions to Pulse in an amount necessary to fully fund each such redemption. UAHC funded an initial payment of $1.75 million to the preferred unitholders on June 18, 2010. Pulse has agreed to redeem the remaining preferred units over a two-year period ending in June 2012. Finally, as an additional condition of closing, UAHC funded a $750,000 payment toward Pulse’s outstanding term loan with a bank and pledged all of the common units of Pulse to the bank as additional security for the remaining $4.25 million outstanding under the loan. The initial payment of $1.75 million to the preferred unitholders and the

$750,000 payment to the bank by UAHC are considered additional consideration for the acquisition of Pulse. The funding of the remaining redemption payments totaling $2.24 million and the assumption of Pulse’s revolving and term loan are not included in the $9.46 million purchase price listed above.
 
Pulse Systems is now a wholly owned subsidiary of UAHC and represents substantially all of the ongoing operations of the Company. Pulse Systems is located in Concord, California. Pulse Systems was founded as Pulse Systems Corporation, a California corporation, in 1998. In 2004, Pulse Systems was re-incorporated as Pulse Systems, LLC, a Delaware limited liability corporation. Since August 2007, Pulse has been managed by its current President and Chief Executive Officer, Herbert J. Bellucci, who has more than 25 years of experience in the medical device industry.
 
The remaining sections of this Part I discuss the business of Pulse Systems. The operating results of Pulse are only included in the accompanying financial statements since the acquisition date of June 18, 2010, and the financial information disclosed in the following sections for Pulse for any historical period are substantially prior to the acquisition.
 
Business
 
Pulse Systems is a provider of contract manufacturing services to the medical device industry. Over the last twelve years, Pulse has developed an expertise in laser-based metal fabrication services, supplying precision components to customers developing products for use in a wide range of medical specialties, including cardiology, neurology, orthopedics, gynecology, ophthalmology and urology. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2010, approximately 57% of Pulse’s total revenue was related to products with cardiovascular applications. Components produced by Pulse Systems are used in medical device applications such as cardiovascular stents, heart valve replacements, arterial wound closures, spinal repairs, breast biopsies and brain aneurysm repairs.
 
Pulse Systems specializes in the following contract manufacturing services for the medical device industry:
 
  •  Laser Cutting.  Pulse’s core business is providing precision laser cutting of thin-wall metal tubes. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2010, laser cutting represented approximately 90% of Pulse’s total revenue. Pulse has expertise in processing a variety of medical-grade materials, such as stainless steel, certain nickel-titanium alloys known as “Nitinol”, precious metals such as platinum and gold (often used as radio-opaque location markers for implants), as well as tantalum and cobalt chromium. Pulse utilizes automated processing workstations which deliver precise amounts of laser energy to vaporize metal materials in the specific pattern required for the customer’s part. Laser processing has technical advantages over other conventional machining techniques in processing these thin, delicate materials.
 
  •  Laser Welding.  In addition to its laser cutting capabilities, Pulse provides customers with laser welding services for joining metal components into sub-assemblies. Pulse maintains a certified Class 10,000 (International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) Class 7) cleanroom for its sub-assembly work. Similar to laser cutting, laser welding is performed by highly accurate computer-controlled equipment and is advantageous for use in medical device manufacturing because of its precision. From a biocompatibility and cleanliness perspective, the medical-grade materials of the components themselves are melted by the laser energy to form the weld, so no that additional materials or contaminants are introduced to the finished product.
 
  •  Nitinol Processing.  Pulse has developed particular expertise in Nitinol heat-treating techniques, which enable medical device developers to utilize the shape-memory properties of the Nitinol material. In heat-treating Nitinol, components are formed into a desired shape in a fixture, then exposed to a precise transition temperature for a specific amount of time. Heat-treated Nitinol components will retain their desired shape while maintaining flexibility of the spring-like material. This process is referred to as “shape-setting”. Nitinol is often used in the design of catheter-delivered implants which can assume a desired shape when deployed inside the body.

  •  Surface Treatments.  Pulse offers an array of surface treatment options for medical device manufacturers to meet specific design requirements:
 
  •  Electropolishing.  Using electrical energy to remove precise amounts of material from metal parts, electropolishing produces bright, clean surfaces, and provides the corrosion resistance required for long-term metallic implants.
 
  •  Passivation.  For certain materials, especially stainless steel, chemical passivation techniques are used to provide corrosion resistance.
 
  •  Grit-blasting.  In situations where roughened surfaces are desired, such as for bonding or overmolding, parts are blasted with a stream of pressurized air carrying fine particles of aluminum oxide grit to produce the required surface roughness.
 
Competition
 
The seven largest companies in the industry account for approximately 49% of the approximately $1 billion market for medical device contract manufacturing. Beyond the market leaders, the medical device contract manufacturing industry is highly fragmented, consisting of several thousand companies in the United States, most of which are privately-held. Industry directories list more than 5,000 companies that contribute as contract manufacturers to serving the medical device industry. Participants range from small individually-owned shops to technical specialty firms (such as Pulse Systems) to large multi-national companies providing end-to-end medical device design, fabrication, assembly, and packaging services. Participants are primarily located in California, Minnesota and Boston, Massachusetts. Certain of Pulse’s customers also have the capability to manufacture similar products in house, if they so choose.
 
Pulse Systems competes with a number of other suppliers who provide similar contract manufacturing services to the medical device industry. These competitors offer a range of manufacturing services, each one differing in their mix of capabilities and production capacity for each. The major elements of competition in this industry are product quality, customer service, technical capabilities, and ISO certifications, as well as pricing. While price is an important factor, it is not the only consideration for customers choosing among the competitors in this industry. Pulse does not strive to offer the lowest price, but rather the best overall value for the customer.
 
Medical Device Opportunity
 
Powerful demographic, economic, and technologic trends are driving the development of new medical technologies. Major contributing factors are the rapid growth in the world population and the even faster growth of the population segment over the age of sixty-five. Alongside the aging population trend is the worldwide trend toward industrialization and the associated improvement in personal incomes and quality of life expectations. New medical technologies are emerging to meet the challenges of the leading causes of death, which have captured the imagination of technically astute surgeons, device developers, and investors, and have spawned the emergence of dozens of new medical device start-up companies with bold new product concepts, visionary leadership, and strong capital investment.
 
The contract manufacturing industry provides services to medical device companies that they cannot perform for themselves economically, or do not wish to invest in for strategic reasons. The trend in recent years has been toward selective outsourcing of manufacturing processes to free up investment capital for acquisition of new product technologies. The capital intensity of certain manufacturing processes, such as laser cutting and other metal fabrication, injection molding, and tubing extrusion, among others, favors consolidation of these investment-intensive manufacturing capabilities within specialty firms, allowing economies of scale to be shared by multiple customers.
 
Due to its ability to work collaboratively and responsively with the small venture-backed start-ups, as well as its strategic geographical location near the center of venture capital investment activity in the San Francisco Bay Area of California, Pulse Systems seeks to benefit from current demographic, economic, and technologic trends.

Customers
 
Customers range in size from broadly-based multi-billion dollar public companies to small venture-capital financed start-ups. However, most of the companies served by Pulse Systems tend to be smaller start-ups, at least in the initial service period.
 
For the twelve months ended June 30, 2010, Pulse Systems provided contract manufacturing services to 112 medical device customers, with approximately 61% of revenue arising from customers located in the San Francisco Bay Area. For the twelve-months ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, Pulse’s largest customer accounted for approximately 40%, 60% and 59% of its total revenue, respectively, and its second largest customer accounted for approximately 19%, 10% and 7% of its total revenue, respectively. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2010, the ten largest customers accounted for 82% of Pulse’s total revenue. Although such customers represent a significant portion of Pulse’s business, we do not believe the company is substantially dependent on any one customer.
 
Pulse does not have any long-term contracts with its customers. Although we obtain firm purchase orders from customers, such customers do not typically make firm orders for delivery more than 120 days in advance. In addition, such customers may reschedule or cancel firm orders on short notice in accordance with contractual terms. While firm purchase orders remain our best predictor of future shipments in the near term, we do not believe that the backlog of sales at any point time is a meaningful measure of future long-term sales. As of June 30, 2010, we had a sales backlog of approximately $2.9 million.
 
Marketing and Sales
 
Pulse Systems sells its contract manufacturing services directly to medical device manufacturing companies who are responsible for the engineering design, clinical development, regulatory approval, and marketing and sales of the end products. In selling its services, Pulse utilizes independent manufacturer’s representatives, who are granted exclusive regional territories and are paid a percentage commission for the sales revenues generated in their territories. Our manufacturing representatives are generally restricted from representing competitors in our industry during their service period to Pulse.
 
Pulse promotes its services nationally through several media as well as its website (www.pulsesystems.com). We also advertise selectively in certain medical device industry trade publications, and we exhibit at several industry trade shows annually. Referrals from satisfied customers are also a strong factor in our selling, and we frequently receive unsolicited requests for quotation.
 
Government Regulations
 
Pulse Systems is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations governing the emission, discharge, use, storage and disposal of hazardous materials. We are not aware of any material noncompliance with the environmental laws currently applicable to our business and we are not subject to any material claim for liability with respect to noncompliance. Pulse is also subject to various other environmental, health, safety, and labor laws as well as various other directives and regulations. To the best of our knowledge, the company is in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
 
The FDA and related state and foreign governmental agencies regulate many of our customers’ products as medical devices, all of which are not directly related to our business as currently conducted. In most cases, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or foreign government agency must approve or pre-clear those products prior to commercialization.
 
Intellectual Property
 
We have developed certain manufacturing “know-how” that we consider proprietary, and which helps to differentiate our services from those provided by others. Our engineering staff is focused on the innovative application of manufacturing technologies to meet our customers’ needs. However, Pulse does not conduct any basic research and development outside of specific tasks requested by its customers, and therefore has no expenses in that area.

Table of Contents

Pulse Systems owns no patents, patent rights or trademarks. Further, our business is not dependent on licensed technology owned by others, except for certain proprietary technology contained in capital equipment purchased with the appropriate usage licenses and standard commercially available computer software.
 
Quality Assurance
 
Pulse Systems maintains a comprehensive quality assurance program, which includes the control and documentation of material specifications, operating procedures, equipment maintenance, and quality control methods. Our quality systems are based upon FDA requirements and ISO standards for medical device manufacturers. We believe that our operations are in substantial compliance with all applicable regulations. Pulse Systems has obtained quality certification under the ISO standards, ISO 13485:2003 and ISO 9001:2008. In order to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, we generally permit periodic customer audits of our quality systems.
 
Materials
 
The principal raw materials used in products manufactured by Pulse Systems, which are medical-grade stainless steel and Nitinol tubing drawn to specific sizes, are either supplied by our customers or are purchased per customer specifications in conjunction with particular customer purchase orders. Such materials are purchased from multiple suppliers, and are generally readily available with reasonable delivery times. Therefore, the company does not carry significant amounts of uncommitted raw material inventory. On-hand inventories are generally limited to raw materials and work-in-process related to contracted customer shipments.
 
Employees
 
As of June 30, 2010, the Company had 30 full-time employees, including 25 full-time employees of Pulse. The Company’s employees do not belong to a collective bargaining unit and management considers its relations with employees to be good.
 
Further information about the Company and Pulse Systems can be found on the Internet at www.uahc.com and www.pulsesystems.com, respectively. The references to the website addresses of the Company and Pulse are not intended to function as a hyperlink and, except as specified herein, the information contained on such websites are not part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
ITEM 1A.   RISK FACTORS
 
You should carefully consider each of the risks and uncertainties described below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as any amendments or updates reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC. We believe these risks and uncertainties, individually or in the aggregate, could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results and could materially and adversely affect our business operations, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. Further, additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our results and business operations.
 
Risks Related to Our Business
 
The existing global economic and financial market environment has had and may continue to have a negative effect on our business and operations.
 
The existing global economic and financial market environment has caused, among other things, lower consumer and business spending, lower consumer net worth, a general tightening in the credit markets, and lower levels of liquidity, all of which has had and may continue to have a negative effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. Many of our customers have been severely affected by the current economic turmoil. Current or potential customers may no longer be in business, may be unable to fund purchases or determine to reduce purchases, all of which has and could continue to lead to reduced demand for our products, reduced gross margins, and increased customer payment delays or defaults. Further, suppliers may not be able to supply us with needed raw materials on a timely basis, may increase prices or go out of business, which could result


5


Table of Contents

in our inability to meet consumer demand or affect our gross margins. We are also limited in our ability to reduce costs to offset the results of a prolonged or severe economic downturn given certain fixed costs associated with our operations, difficulties if we overstrained our resources, and our long-term business approach that necessitates we remain in position to respond when market conditions improve. The timing and nature of any recovery in the credit and financial markets remains uncertain, and there can be no assurance that market conditions will significantly improve in the near future or that our results will not continue to be materially and adversely affected.
 
Such conditions make it very difficult to forecast operating results, make business decisions and identify and address material business risks. The foregoing conditions may also impact the valuation of certain long-lived or intangible assets that are subject to impairment testing, potentially resulting in impairment charges which may be material to our financial condition or results of operations. See “— Risks Related to Financing Activities” below for a discussion of additional risks to our liquidity resulting from the current economic and financial market environment.
 
Quality problems with our processes, products and services could harm our reputation for producing high quality products and erode our competitive advantage.
 
Quality is extremely important to us and our customers due to the serious and costly consequences of product failure. Many of our customers require us to adopt and comply with specific quality standards, and they periodically audit our performance. Our quality certifications are critical to the marketing success of our products and services. If we fail to meet these standards, our reputation could be damaged, we could lose customers and our sales could decline. Aside from specific customer standards, our success depends generally on our ability to manufacture to exact tolerances precision engineered components, subassemblies and finished devices using multiple materials. If our components fail to meet these standards or fail to adapt to evolving standards, our reputation as a manufacturer of high quality components could be harmed, our competitive advantage could be damaged, and we could lose customers and market share.
 
If we experience decreasing prices for our products and services and we are unable to reduce our expenses, our results of operations will suffer.
 
We may experience decreasing prices for the products and services we offer due to pricing pressure experienced by our customers from managed care organizations and other third party payers, increased market power of our customers as the medical device industry consolidates, and increased competition among medical manufacturing outsourcing service providers. If the prices for our products and services decrease and we are unable to reduce our expenses, our results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
 
Because a significant portion of our revenue comes from a few large customers and customers in the San Francisco Bay Area, any decrease in sales to these customers could harm our operating results.
 
Our revenue and profitability are highly dependent on our relationships with a limited number of large medical device companies. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2010, Pulse’s two largest and ten largest customers accounted for approximately 59% and 82%, respectively, of Pulse’s total revenue. In addition, for the twelve months ended June 30, 2010, approximately 61% of Pulse’s revenue related to customers located in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are likely to continue to experience a high degree of customer concentration. The loss or a significant reduction of business from any of our major customers or from customers in the San Francisco Bay Area would adversely affect our results of operations.
 
We have limited contractual relationships with our customers and, as a result, our customers may unilaterally reduce the purchase of our products.
 
Pulse does not have any long-term contracts with its customers. Although we obtain firm purchase orders from customers, such customers do not typically make firm orders for delivery more than 120 days in advance. In addition, such customers may reschedule or cancel firm orders on short notice in accordance with contractual terms for which we may have incurred significant production costs. The loss of several customers or the cancellation of existing firm orders could, in the aggregate, materially adversely affect our operations and financial condition.

Table of Contents

Many of our larger customers are multinational companies that purchase large quantities of medical devices and have centralized procurement departments. They generally enter into outsourcing arrangements through a tender process that solicits bids from several potential suppliers and selects the winning bid based on several attributes, including price and service. The significant negotiating leverage possessed by many of our customers and potential customers limits our ability to negotiate arrangements with favorable terms and creates pricing pressure, reducing margins industry wide. In addition, our customers may vary their order levels significantly from period to period, and customers may not continue to place orders with us in the future at the same levels as in prior periods. In the event we lose any of our larger customers, we may not be able to quickly replace that revenue source, which could harm our financial results.
 
If our customers fail to obtain, or experience significant delays in obtaining, FDA clearances or approvals to commercially distribute their products, our ability to sell our services could suffer.
 
Many of our customers’ medical devices are subject to rigorous regulatory pre-approval by the FDA and other federal, state and foreign governmental authorities. Our customers are typically responsible for obtaining the applicable regulatory approval for the commercial distribution of our products. The process of obtaining this approval, particularly from the FDA, can be costly and time consuming, and there can be no assurance that our customers will obtain the required approvals on a timely basis, if at all. The FDA approval process can be expensive and uncertain, requires detailed and comprehensive scientific and other data, and generally takes between three months and three years, or longer, depending on the product classification. The commercial distribution of any products developed by our customers that require regulatory clearance may be delayed by the regulatory approval process. If our customers fail to obtain, or experience significant delays in obtaining, FDA clearances or approvals to commercially distribute their products, our ability to sell our services could suffer.
 
We may face competition from, and we may be unable to compete successfully against, new entrants and established companies with greater resources.
 
The market for outsourced manufacturing services to the medical device industry is very competitive and includes seven companies that account for approximately 49% of the approximately $1 billion market, with thousands of companies accounting for the remaining market share. As more medical device companies seek to outsource more of the prototyping and manufacturing of their products, we will face increasing competitive pressures to grow our business in order to maintain our competitive position, and we may encounter competition from and lose customers to other companies with technological and manufacturing capabilities similar to or better than ours. Some of our potential competitors have greater name recognition, greater operating revenues, larger customer bases, longer customer relationships and greater financial, technical, personnel and marketing resources than we have. Further, we believe that there are few barriers to entry into many of our product markets. As a result, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, competition from new manufacturers. When new manufacturers enter the market or existing manufacturers increase capacity, they frequently reduce prices to achieve increased market share.
 
An increase in competition could result in material selling price reductions or loss of our market share, which could materially adversely affect our operations and financial condition. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully in the markets for our products or that competition will not intensify.
 
If we do not respond to changes in technology, our manufacturing processes may become obsolete and we may experience reduced sales and lose customers.
 
We use proprietary processes and sophisticated machining equipment to meet the critical specifications of our customers. Without the timely incorporation of new processes and enhancements, particularly relating to quality standards and cost-effective production, our manufacturing capabilities will likely become outdated, which could cause us to lose customers and result in reduced sales or profit margins. In addition, new or revised technologies could render our existing technology less competitive or obsolete or could reduce demand for our products and services. It is also possible that finished medical device products introduced by our customers may require fewer of our components or may require components that we lack the capabilities to manufacture or assemble. In addition,

we may expend resources on developing technologies that do not result in commercially viable processes for our business, which could adversely impact our margins and operating results.
 
Our business is subject to risks associated with a single manufacturing facility.
 
We internally manufacture our own products at one production facility in Concord, California. While we maintain insurance covering our manufacturing and production facility, including business interruption insurance, a catastrophic loss of the use of all or a portion of our facilities due to accident, fire, explosion, labor issues, weather conditions, other natural disaster or otherwise, whether short or long-term, could have a material adverse effect on our customer relationships and financial results.
 
Our business is subject to risks associated with manufacturing processes.
 
Unexpected failures of our equipment and machinery may result in production delays, revenue loss and significant repair costs, injuries to our employees, and customer claims. Any interruption in production capability may require us to make large capital expenditures to remedy the situation, which could have a negative impact on our profitability and cash flows. Our business interruption insurance may not be sufficient to offset the lost revenues or increased costs that we may experience during a disruption of our operations.
 
Furthermore, our business involves complex manufacturing processes and hazardous materials that can be dangerous to our employees. We employ safety procedures in the design and operation of our facilities and may be required to incur additional expenditures for the development of additional safety procedures in the future. There is a risk that an accident or death could occur at our facilities despite such procedures. Any accident could result in significant manufacturing delays, disruption of operations, claims for damages resulting from injuries or additional expenditures on safety procedures, which could result in decreased sales and increased expenses. To date, we have not incurred any such significant delays, disruptions or claims. The potential liability resulting from any accident or death, to the extent not covered by insurance, would require us to use other resources to satisfy our obligations and could cause our business to suffer.
 
We may expand into new markets or new products and our expansion may not be successful.
 
We may expand into new markets through the development of new product applications based on our existing specialized manufacturing capabilities and services. These efforts could require us to make substantial investments, including significant engineering and capital expenditures for new, expanded or improved manufacturing facilities which would divert resources from other aspects of our business. Expansion into new markets and products may be costly without resulting in any benefit to us. Specific risks in connection with expanding into new markets include the inability to transfer our quality standards into new products, the failure of customers in new markets to accept our products and price competition in new markets. If we choose to expand into new markets and are unsuccessful, our financial condition could be adversely affected and our business harmed.
 
We may selectively pursue acquisitions in the future, but, because of the uncertainty involved, we may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates and may not successfully integrate acquired businesses into our business and operations. We are continuing to integrate Pulse Systems, which also entails risk.
 
We may not be able to identify potential acquisition candidates that could complement our business or may not be able to negotiate acceptable terms for acquisition candidates we identify. As a result, we may not be able to realize this element of our growth strategy. In addition, even if we are successful in acquiring any companies, such as Pulse Systems, we may experience material negative consequences to our business, financial condition or results of operations if we cannot successfully integrate the operations of acquired businesses with ours.
 
The integration of companies that have previously been operated separately (such as Pulse) involves a number of risks, including, but not limited to:
 
  •  difficulty in realizing anticipated financial or strategic benefits of such acquisition;
 
  •  diversion of capital and potential dilution of stockholder ownership;


8


Table of Contents

 
  •  the risks related to increased indebtedness, as well as the risk such financing will not be available on satisfactory terms or at all;
 
  •  diversion of management’s attention and other resources from current operations, including potential strain on financial and managerial controls and reporting systems and procedures;
 
  •  management of employee relations across facilities;
 
  •  difficulties in the assimilation of different corporate cultures and practices, as well as in the assimilation and retention of broad and geographically dispersed personnel and operations;
 
  •  difficulties and unanticipated expenses related to the integration of departments, systems (including accounting systems), technologies, books and records, procedures and controls (including internal accounting controls, procedures and policies), as well as in maintaining uniform standards, including environmental management systems;
 
  •  assumption of known and unknown liabilities, some of which may be difficult or impossible to quantify;
 
  •  inability to realize cost savings, sales increases or other benefits that we anticipate from such acquisitions, either as to amount or in the expected time frame;
 
  •  non-cash impairment charges or other accounting charges relating to the acquired assets; and
 
  •  ability to maintain strong relationships with our and our acquired companies’ customers after the acquisitions.
 
If our integration efforts are not successful, we may not be able to maintain the levels of revenues, earnings or operating efficiency that we and the acquired companies achieved or might achieve separately.
 
Our inability to access additional capital could have a negative impact on our growth strategy.
 
Our growth strategy will require additional capital for, among other purposes, completing any acquisitions we enter into, managing any acquired companies, acquiring new equipment and maintaining the condition of existing equipment. If cash generated internally is insufficient to fund capital requirements, we will require additional debt or equity financing. Adequate financing may not be available or, if available, may not be available on terms satisfactory to us. If we fail to obtain sufficient additional capital in the future, we could be forced to curtail our growth strategy by reducing or delaying capital expenditures and acquisitions, selling assets or restructuring or refinancing our indebtedness. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources” elsewhere in this report.
 
We are subject to a variety of environmental, health and safety laws that could be costly for us to comply with, and we could incur liability if we fail to comply with such laws or if we are responsible for releases of contaminants to the environment.
 
Federal, state and local laws impose various environmental, health and safety requirements on our operations, including with respect to the management, handling, generation, emission, release, discharge, manufacturing, transportation, storage, use and disposal of hazardous substances and other materials used or generated in the manufacturing of our products. If we fail to comply with any present or future environmental, health and safety laws, we could be subject to fines, corrective action, other liabilities or the suspension of production. We could also be subject to claims under such laws, including common law, alleging the release of hazardous substances into the environment.
 
Infringement claims regarding patents or other intellectual property rights by third parties could result in an adverse impact on our operations, and could be costly and distracting to management.
 
Although we do not believe that any of our products, services or processes infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties, historically, patent applications in the United States have not been publicly disclosed until the patent is issued (or as of recently, until publication, which occurs eighteen months after filing), and we may not be aware of currently filed patent applications that relate to our products or processes. If patents later issue on these


9


Table of Contents

applications, we may in the future be notified that we are infringing patent or other intellectual property rights of third parties and we may be liable for infringement at that time. In the event of infringement of patent or other intellectual property rights, we may not be able to obtain licenses on commercially reasonable terms, if at all, and we may end up in litigation. The failure to obtain necessary licenses or other rights or the occurrence of litigation arising out of infringement claims could disrupt our business and impair our ability to meet our customers’ needs which, in turn, could have a negative effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Infringement claims, even if not substantiated, could result in significant legal and other costs and may be a distraction to management. We also may be subject to significant damages or injunctions against development and sale of our products.
 
In addition, any infringement claims, significant charges or injunctions against our customers’ products that incorporate our components may result in our customers not needing or having a reduced need for our capabilities and services.
 
Our earnings and financial condition could suffer if we or our customers become subject to product liability claims or recalls. We may also be required to spend significant time and money responding to investigations or requests for information related to end-products of our customers.
 
The manufacture and sale of products that incorporate components manufactured or assembled by us expose us to potential product liability claims and product recalls, including those that may arise from misuse or malfunction of our components or use of our components with components or systems not manufactured or sold by us. Product liability claims or product recalls with respect to our components or the end-products of our customers into which our components are incorporated, whether or not such problems related to the products and services we have provided and regardless of their ultimate outcome, could require us to pay significant damages or to spend significant time and money in litigation or responding to investigations or requests for information. We may also lose revenue from the sale of components if the commercialization of a product that incorporates our components or subassemblies is limited or ceases as a result of such claims or recalls. Expenditures on litigation or damages, to the extent not covered by insurance, and declines in revenue could impair our earnings and our financial condition. Also, if, as a result of claims or recalls our reputation is harmed, we could lose customers, which would also negatively affect our business.
 
In the future, we may be unable to maintain our existing insurance coverage or to do so at reasonable cost and on reasonable terms. In addition, if our insurance coverage is not sufficient to cover any costs we may incur and we may be required to pay damages if we are subject to product liability claims or product recalls, we will have to use other resources to satisfy our obligations.
 
A substantial amount of our assets represents goodwill, and our earnings will be reduced if our goodwill becomes impaired.
 
As of June 30, 2010, goodwill of approximately $10.0 million represented 48% of our total assets. Goodwill is generated in acquisitions where the cost of an acquisition exceeds the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets we acquire. Goodwill is subject to an impairment analysis at least annually based on a comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If an impairment is indicated from this first step, the implied fair value of the goodwill must be determined. We could be required to recognize reductions in our earnings caused by the impairment of goodwill, which if significantly impaired, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations.
 
Our business may suffer if we are unable to recruit and retain senior management and experienced engineers and management personnel that we need to compete in the medical device industry.
 
Our operations are highly dependent on the efforts of William C. Brooks, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Herb Bellucci, President and CEO of Pulse who has more than 25 years of experience in the medical device industry, and certain other senior executives who have been instrumental in developing our business strategies and forging our business relationships. The loss of the leadership, knowledge and experience of


10


Table of Contents

Mr. Brooks, Mr. Bellucci and our other executive officers could adversely affect our business. We do not currently maintain key man insurance on any of our executive officers.
 
In addition, our future success depends upon our ability to attract, develop and retain highly skilled engineers. We may not be successful in attracting new engineers or in retaining or motivating our existing engineers, which may lead to increased recruiting, relocation and compensation costs for such personnel. These increased costs may reduce our profit margins. Some of our manufacturing processes are highly technical in nature. Our ability to maintain or expand existing business with our customers and provide additional services to our existing customers depends on our ability to hire and retain engineers with the skills necessary to keep pace with continuing changes in the medical device industry. We compete with other companies in the medical device manufacturing industry to recruit engineers.
 
We depend on outside suppliers and subcontractors, and our production and reputation could be harmed if they are unable to meet our quality and volume requirements and alternative sources are not available.
 
Our current internal capabilities do not include all elements that are required to satisfy all of our customers’ requirements. We may rely on third party suppliers, subcontractors, and other outside sources for components or services. Manufacturing problems may occur with these third parties. A supplier may fail to supply components or services to us on a timely basis, or may supply us with components or services that do not meet our quality, quantity, or cost requirements. If any of these problems occur, we may be unable to obtain substitute sources of these components or services on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us, which could harm our ability to deliver components or services to our customers profitably or on time. In addition, if the processes that our suppliers use to provide components or services are proprietary, we may be unable to obtain comparable components from alternative suppliers.
 
Prior to its acquisition by the Company, Pulse Systems was not subject to requirements to test its internal control over financial reporting. If such controls are ineffective, it could have a significant and adverse effect on our business and reputation.
 
Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder require that companies who are required to file reports under section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act 1934 evaluate their internal controls over financial reporting in order to allow management to report on their internal controls over financial reporting. Prior to its acquisition by the Company, Pulse Systems was not a required to undertake such evaluation. Ensuring the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may entail significant costs and management time. Following the integration of systems, if we are unable to certify as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting including Pulse, there could be a negative reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements. In addition, we may be required to incur costs to improve our internal control system and to hire additional personnel. Any such action could negatively affect our results of operations.
 
Our operating results may fluctuate, which may make it difficult to forecast our future performance.
 
Fluctuations in our operating results may cause uncertainty concerning our performance and prospects or may result in our failure to meet expectations. Our operating results have fluctuated in the past and are likely to fluctuate significantly in the future due to a variety of factors, which include, but are not limited to:
 
  •  the fixed nature of a substantial percentage of our costs, which results in our operations being sensitive to fluctuations in sales;
 
  •  changes in the relative portion of our sales represented by our various products, which could result in reductions in our profits if the relative portion of our sales represented by lower margin products increases;
 
  •  introduction and market acceptance of our customers’ new products and changes in demand for our customers’ existing products;
 
  •  the accuracy of our customers’ forecasts for future production requirements;


11


Table of Contents

 
  •  timing of orders placed by our principal customers that account for a significant portion of our revenues;
 
  •  future price concessions as a result of pressure to compete;
 
  •  cancellations by customers which may result in recovery of only our costs;
 
  •  the availability of raw materials, including stainless steel, nitinol, platinum, tantalum, and gold;
 
  •  increased costs of raw materials, supplies or skilled labor;
 
  •  our effectiveness in managing our manufacturing processes; and
 
  •  changes in the competitive and economic conditions generally, or in our customers’ markets.
 
Investors should not rely on results of operations in any past period as an indication of what our results will be for any future period.
 
Risks Related to Our Industry
 
We may not be able to grow our business if the trend by medical device companies to outsource their manufacturing activities does not continue or if our customers decide to manufacture internally products that we currently provide.
 
Our contract manufacturing business has grown partly as a result of the increase over the past several years in medical device companies outsourcing these activities. We view the increasing use of outsourcing by medical device companies as an important component of our future growth strategy. While industry analysts expect the outsourcing trend to increase, our current and prospective customers continue to evaluate our capabilities against the merits of internal production. Protecting intellectual property rights and maximizing control over regulatory compliance are among factors that may influence medical device companies to keep production in-house. Any substantial slowing of growth rates or decreases in outsourcing by medical device companies could cause our sales to decline, and we may be limited in our ability, or unable to continue, to grow our business.
 
We and our customers are subject to various regulations, as well as political, economic and regulatory changes in the healthcare industry or otherwise, that could force us to modify how we price our components, manufacturing capabilities and services and could harm our business.
 
The healthcare industry is highly regulated and is influenced by changing political, economic and regulatory factors. Regulations affecting the healthcare industry in general, and the medical device industry in particular, are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over time. Specifically, the FDA and state and foreign governmental agencies regulate many of our customers’ products and approval/clearance is required for those products prior to commercialization in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions. Some of our facilities are subject to inspection by the FDA and other regulatory agencies for compliance with regulations or regulatory requirements. Our failure to comply with these regulations or regulatory requirements may result in civil and criminal enforcement actions or fines and, in some cases, the prevention or delay of our customers’ ability to gain or maintain approval to market their products. Any failure by us to comply with applicable regulations could also result in the cessation of portions or all of our operations and restrictions on our ability to continue or expand our operations.
 
The recently enacted Affordable Healthcare for America Act includes provisions that may adversely affect our business and results of operations, including an excise tax on the sales of most medical devices.
 
On March 21, 2010, the House of Representatives passed the Affordable Health Care for America Act, which President Obama signed into law on March 23, 2010. While we are continuing to evaluate this legislation and its potential impact on the Company, it may adversely affect our business and results of operations, possibly materially.
 
Specifically, one of the new law’s components is a 2.3% excise tax on sales of most medical devices, starting in 2013. This tax may put increased cost pressure on medical device companies, including our customers, and may lead our customers to reduce their orders for products we produce or to request that we reduce the prices we charge for products we produce in order to offset the tax.

Table of Contents

Our business is indirectly subject to healthcare industry cost containment measures and other industry trends affecting pricing that could result in reduced sales of or prices for our products.
 
Acceptance of our customers’ products by hospitals, outpatient centers and physicians depend on, among other things, reimbursement approval of third-party payers such as Medicaid, Medicare and private insurers. The continuing efforts of government, insurance companies and other payers of healthcare costs to contain or reduce those costs could lead to lower reimbursement rates or non-reimbursement for medical procedures that use our products. If that were to occur, medical device manufacturers might insist that we lower prices on products related to the affected medical device or they might significantly reduce or eliminate their purchases from us of these related products, which could affect our profitability.
 
Consolidation in the healthcare industry could have an adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.
 
Many healthcare industry companies, including medical device companies, are consolidating to create new companies with greater market power. As the healthcare industry consolidates, competition to provide products and services to industry participants will become more intense. These industry participants may try to use their market power to negotiate price concessions or reductions for medical devices that incorporate components produced by us. If we are forced to reduce our prices because of consolidation in the healthcare industry, our revenues would decrease and our business, financial condition and results of operations would suffer.
 
Inability to obtain sufficient quantities of raw materials could cause delays in our production.
 
Our business is dependent on a continuous supply of raw materials. The raw materials needed for our business are susceptible to fluctuations in price and availability due to transportation costs, government regulations, price controls, changes in economic climates or other unforeseen circumstances. Failure to maintain our supply of raw materials could cause production delays resulting in a loss of customers and a decline in sales. Due to the supply and demand fundamentals of raw materials used by us, we have occasionally experienced extended lead times on purchases and deliveries from our suppliers. Consequently, we have had to adjust our delivery schedule to customers. In addition, fluctuations in the cost of raw materials may increase our expenses and affect our operating results. The principal raw materials used in our business include stainless steel, nitinol, platinum, tantalum, cobalt chromium, and electricity.
 
Risks Relating to Financing Activities
 
Capital markets have experienced a significant period of dislocation and instability, which has had and could continue to have a negative impact on the availability and cost of capital.
 
The general disruption in the U.S. capital markets has impacted the broader financial and credit markets and reduced the availability of debt and equity capital for the market as a whole. These conditions could persist for a prolonged period of time or worsen in the future. Our ability to access the capital markets may be restricted at a time when we would like, or need, to access those markets, which could have an impact on our flexibility to react to changing economic and business conditions. The resulting lack of available credit, increased volatility in the financial markets and reduced business activity could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and our ability to obtain and manage our liquidity. In addition, the cost of debt financing, and other important financing terms, may be materially adversely impacted by these market conditions.
 
Credit market developments may reduce availability under our credit agreement.
 
Due to the volatile state of the credit markets during the past few years, there is risk that lenders, even those with strong balance sheets and sound lending practices, could fail or refuse to honor their legal commitments and obligations under existing credit commitments, including but not limited to: extending credit up to the maximum permitted by a credit facility, allowing access to additional credit features and otherwise accessing capital and/or honoring loan commitments. If our lender(s) fail to honor their legal commitments under our credit facility, it could be difficult in the current environment to replace our credit facility on similar terms. Although we believe that our operating cash flow, access to capital markets and existing credit facilities will give us the ability to satisfy our


13


Table of Contents

liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months, the failure of any of the lenders under our credit facility may impact our ability to finance our operating or investing activities.
 
Pulse and UAHC are subject to a number of restrictive debt covenants which may restrict our business and financing activities.
 
Our credit facility contains restrictive debt covenants that, among other things, restrict Pulse’s and/or UAHC’s ability to:
 
  •  borrow money;
 
  •  pay dividends and make distributions;
 
  •  make certain investments;
 
  •  repurchase stock;
 
  •  use assets as security in other transactions;
 
  •  create liens;
 
  •  enter into affiliate transactions;
 
  •  merge or consolidate; and
 
  •  transfer and sell assets.
 
In addition, our credit facility also require us to maintain certain financial tests. These restrictive covenants may limit our ability to expand or to pursue our business strategies. Furthermore, any indebtedness that we incur in the future may contain similar or more restrictive covenants. Our ability to comply with the restrictions contained in our credit facility may be affected by changes in our business condition or results of operations, adverse regulatory developments or other events beyond our control. A failure to comply with these restrictions could result in a default under our credit facility or any other subsequent financing agreement, which could, in turn, cause any of our debt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies to become immediately due and payable. If our debt were to be accelerated, we cannot assure you that we would be able to repay it. In addition, a default could give our lenders the right to terminate any commitments that they had made to provide us with additional funds.
 
Risks Relating to Our Common Stock
 
Our common stock may continue to be volatile and could decline substantially.
 
The trading price of our common stock has been, and may continue to be, volatile. From July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010, the trading price of our stock has ranged from $0.55 to $1.75. We believe this volatility is due to, among other things, recent financial performance, current expectations of our future financial performance, delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market and the volatility of the stock market in general.
 
In particular, with respect to our new operations, there has been significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of companies operating in the medical device industry, which has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.
 
Price declines in our common stock could result from general market and economic conditions and a variety of other factors, including:
 
  •  actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;
 
  •  our announcements or our competitors’ announcements regarding new products, significant contracts, acquisitions, divestitures or strategic investments;
 
  •  loss of any of our key management or technical personnel;
 
  •  conditions affecting medical device manufacturers or the medical device industry generally;


14


Table of Contents

 
  •  product liability lawsuits against us or our customers;
 
  •  clinical trial results with respect to our customers’ medical devices;
 
  •  changes in our growth rates or our competitors’ growth rates;
 
  •  developments regarding our proprietary rights, or those of our competitors;
 
  •  FDA and international actions with respect to the government regulation of medical devices and third-party reimbursement practices;
 
  •  public concern as to the safety of our products;
 
  •  changes in health care policy in the United States and internationally;
 
  •  conditions in the financial markets in general or changes in general economic conditions;
 
  •  our liquidity needs and constraints and our ability to raise additional capital;
 
  •  changes in stock market analyst recommendations regarding our common stock, other comparable companies or the medical device industry generally, or lack of analyst coverage of our common stock;
 
  •  sales of our common stock by our executive officers, directors and five percent stockholders or stock issuances by the Company;
 
  •  changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles; and
 
  •  announcement of financial restatements.
 
Some companies that have had volatile market prices for their securities have been subject to securities class action suits filed against them. If a suit were to be filed against us, regardless of the outcome, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition.
 
We have recently been delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market and there is a limited trading volume for our common stock on the OTCQB.
 
In July 2010, our common stock was delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market. Our common stock, which currently trades on the OTCQB Marketplace, does not have substantial trading volume. As a result, relatively small trades of our common stock may have a significant impact on the price of our common stock and, therefore, may contribute to the price volatility of our common stock. Because of the limited trading volume in our common stock and the price volatility of our common stock, you may be unable to sell your shares of common stock when you desire or at the price you desire. Moreover, the inability to sell your shares in a declining market because of such illiquidity or at a price you desire may substantially increase your risk of loss.
 
In addition, the delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market could materially adversely affect our ability to raise capital on terms acceptable to us or at all and adversely affect institutional investor interest.
 
Our articles of incorporation, our bylaws and Michigan law contain provisions that could discourage another company from acquiring us and may prevent attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our current management.
 
Provisions of Michigan corporation law, our articles of incorporation and our bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that shareholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which you might otherwise receive a premium for your shares. In addition, these provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult for shareholders to replace or remove our board of directors. These provisions include:
 
  •  providing for a classified board of directors with staggered terms;
 
  •  requiring super majority stockholder voting to effect certain amendments to our articles of incorporation and bylaws;


15


Table of Contents

 
  •  eliminating the ability of shareholders to call special meetings of shareholders;
 
  •  establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by shareholders at shareholder meetings;
 
  •  permitting the board of directors to amend, alter or repeal the bylaws;
 
  •  limiting the ability of shareholders to act by written consent;
 
  •  limiting the ability of shareholders to remove directors; and
 
  •  authorizing of the board of directors to issue, without stockholder approval, shares of one or more series of preferred stock with such terms as the board of directors may determine and shares of our common stock.
 
Our common stock may be subject to “penny stock” rules, which make it more difficult for you to dispose of your shares.
 
Our common stock may be subject to the rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 relating to “penny stocks.” These rules require brokers who sell securities that are subject to the rules, and who sell to persons other than established customers and institutional accredited investors, to complete required documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with information concerning the risks of trading in the security. These requirements would make it more difficult to buy or sell our common stock in the open market and therefore reduce the market liquidity of our common stock. As a result, an investor would find it more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate quotations for the price of, our common stock.
 
We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends.
 
We presently do not anticipate that we will pay any dividends on any of our capital stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends, if any, would be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements, and general financial condition. The payment of any dividends will be within the discretion of our Board of Directors. We presently intend to retain all earnings, if any, to implement our business plan; accordingly, we do not anticipate the declaration of any dividends in the foreseeable future.
 
We may need additional capital, and the sale of additional shares or other equity securities could result in additional dilution to our stockholders.
 
We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for the near future. We may, however, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we will seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or increase the size of our credit facility. The sale of additional equity securities would result in additional dilution to our stockholders.
 
Risks Related to Our Prior Healthcare Management Business
 
If we are unable to estimate incurred but not reported medical benefits expense accurately, that could affect our reported financial results.
 
Our medical benefits expense includes estimates of medical claims incurred but not reported (“IBNR”). Together with our internal and consulting actuaries, we estimate our medical cost liabilities using actuarial methods based on historical data adjusted for payment patterns, cost trends, product mix, seasonality, utilization of healthcare services and other relevant factors. Actual conditions could, however, differ from those assumed in the estimation process. We continually review and update our estimation methods and the resulting reserves and make adjustments, if necessary, to medical benefits expense when the criteria used to determine IBNR change and when actual claim costs are ultimately determined. Due to the uncertainties associated with the factors used in these assumptions, the actual amount of medical benefits expense that we incur may be materially more than the amount of IBNR originally estimated. If our current or future estimates of IBNR are inadequate, our reported results of


16


Table of Contents

operations could be negatively impacted. Our limited ability to estimate IBNR accurately could also affect our ability to take timely corrective actions, exacerbating the extent of any adverse effect on our results.
 
We are required to comply with laws governing the transmission, security and privacy of health information that require significant compliance costs, and any failure to comply with these laws could result in material criminal and civil penalties.
 
Regulations under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, commonly called HIPAA, require us to comply with standards regarding the exchange of health information within our Company and with third parties, including healthcare providers, business associates and our members. These regulations include: standards for common healthcare transactions, including claims information, plan eligibility and payment information; unique identifiers for providers and employers; security; privacy; and enforcement. We conduct our operations in an attempt to comply with all applicable HIPAA requirements. Given the complexity of the HIPAA regulations, the possibility that the regulations may change and the fact that the regulations are subject to changing and sometimes conflicting interpretation, our ongoing ability to comply with the HIPAA requirements is uncertain. Additionally, the costs of complying with any changes to the HIPAA regulations may have a negative impact on our operations. Sanctions for failing to comply with the HIPAA health information provisions include criminal penalties and civil sanctions, including significant monetary penalties. A failure by us to comply with state health information laws that may be more restrictive than the HIPAA regulations could result in additional penalties.

Overview
 
This section discusses the Company’s results of operations, financial position and liquidity. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K.
 
History
 
From November 1993 to June 2009, the Company’s indirect, wholly owned subsidiary, UAHC Health Plan of Tennessee, Inc. (“UAHC-TN”), was a managed care organization in the TennCare program, a State of Tennessee program that provided medical benefits to Medicaid and working uninsured recipients. On April 22, 2008, the Company learned that UAHC-TN would no longer be authorized to provide managed care services as a TennCare contractor when its present TennCare contract expired on June 30, 2009. UAHC-TN’s TennCare members transferred to other managed care organizations on November 1, 2008, after which UAHC-TN continued to perform its remaining contractual obligations through its TennCare contract expiration date of June 30, 2009. However, revenue under this contract was only earned through October 31, 2008.
 
From January 2007 to December 2009, UAHC-TN served as a Medicare Advantage qualified organization (the “Medicare contract”) pursuant to a contract with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”). The contract authorized UAHC-TN to serve members enrolled in both the Tennessee Medicaid and Medicare programs, commonly referred to as “dual-eligibles,” specifically to offer a Special Needs Plan (“SNP”) to its eligible members in Shelby County, Tennessee (including the City of Memphis), and to operate a Voluntary Medicare Prescription Drug Plan. The Company did not seek renewal of the Medicare contract, which expired December 31, 2009. The Company is continuing to wind down the Medicare business and expects to continue to incur costs related to the

Medicare business through December 31, 2010, including labor, claim processing and the differential costs related to Tennessee facility sublease. The costs are expected to be approximate $0.1 million to $0.2 million.
 
The discontinuance of the TennCare and Medicare contracts have had a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations, earnings, financial condition and cash flows in fiscal 2009 and 2010.
 
Acquisition of Pulse Systems, LLC
 
On June 18, 2010, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and a Warrant Purchase Agreement to acquire 100% of the outstanding common units and warrants to purchase common units of Pulse. The consideration paid to acquire the common units and warrants of Pulse totaled approximately $9.46 million, which consisted of (a) cash paid at closing of $3.40 million, (b) a non-interest bearing note payable of $1.75 million (secured by a subordinated pledge of all the common units of Pulse), (c) 1,608,039 shares of UAHC common stock determined based on an initial value of $1.6 million, (d) an estimated purchase price adjustment of $210,364 based on targeted levels of net working capital, cash and debt of Pulse at the acquisition date (e) and the funding of $2.5 million for certain obligations of Pulse as discussed below. The shares of UAHC common stock were issued on July 12, 2010, upon approval by the Company’s board of directors on July 7, 2010. The shares of UAHC common stock had a fair value of $1.05 million as of June 30, 2010, and a fair value of $884,000 on July 12, 2010, the date the shares were issued and recorded. The Company also assumed Pulse’s term loan to a bank of $4.25 million, after making a payment at closing as discussed below.
 
In connection with the acquisition of the Pulse common units, Pulse entered into a redemption agreement with the holders of its preferred units to redeem the preferred units for $3.99 million. Pulse is only allowed to redeem the preferred units if the Company makes additional cash equity contributions to Pulse in an amount necessary to fully fund each such redemption. The Company funded an initial payment of $1.75 million to the preferred unitholders on June 18, 2010. Pulse has agreed to redeem the remaining preferred units over a two-year period ending in June 2012. Finally, as an additional condition of closing, the Company funded a $750,000 payment toward Pulse’s outstanding term loan with a bank and pledged all of the common units of Pulse to the bank as additional security for the remaining $4.25 million outstanding under the loan. The initial payment of $1.75 million to the preferred unitholders and the $750,000 payment to the bank by the Company are considered additional consideration for the acquisition of Pulse. The funding of the remaining redemption payments totaling $2.24 million and the assumption of Pulse’s revolving and term loan are not included in the $9.46 million purchase price listed above.
 
Pulse Systems currently represents substantially all of the ongoing operations of the Company. However, the operating results of Pulse are only included in the discussion below and the accompanying financial statements since the acquisition date of June 18, 2010. In addition, Pulse’s fiscal year previously ended on December 31; however, effective upon the acquisition, Pulse’s fiscal year will end June 30 (beginning with the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2010).
 
Review of Consolidated Results of Operations — Fiscal 2010 Compared to Fiscal 2009
 
Total revenues decreased $12.8 million (77%) to $3.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 compared to $16.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to discontinuance of the TennCare contract and the wind down of the Medicare contract, offset by $0.3 million in Pulse contract manufacturing service revenue, which represents Pulse revenue for the 12-day period from the date of acquistion.
 
MA-SNP medical premiums revenues were $3.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 compared to $11.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, all of which related to the Medicare contract. The decrease in medical premiums results from the wind down of the Medicare contract. Also, during fiscal year 2009, the medical premiums included $0.8 million in additional revenue from a CMS retroactive risk premium adjustment.
 
The retroactive risk premium adjustment for a given year generally occurs during the third quarter of such year. This initial settlement (the “Initial CMS Settlement”) represents the updating of risk scores for the current year based on updated diagnoses from the prior year. CMS then issues a final retroactive risk premium adjustment settlement for that year in the following calendar year (the “Final CMS Settlement”).

Table of Contents

The Company was unable to estimate the impact of either of these risk adjustment settlements primarily because of the lack of historical risk-based diagnosis code data and insufficient historical experience regarding risk premium settlement adjustments on which to base a reasonable estimate of future risk premium adjustments and, as such, recorded them upon notification from CMS of such amount. The Initial CMS Settlement related to 2008 claims recorded in fiscal year 2009 was $0.8 million. The Company will record revenue related to 2009 claims, if any, upon notification from CMS.
 
The net MA-SNP per member per month premium rate, based on an average membership of 231 for the year ended June 30, 2010, was $1,056 for that one-year period. The net MA-SNP per member per month premium rate, based on an average membership of 699 for the year ended June 30, 2009, was $1,598 for that one-year period.
 
There were no fixed administrative fees for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, compared to fixed administrative fees of $4.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in fixed administrative fees is principally due to the discontinuance of the TennCare contract.
 
Variable administrative fees resulting from the modified risk arrangement (MRA) revenue were $0.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 compared to $0.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.
 
Total expenses were $9.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, compared to $26.1 million for the prior fiscal year, a decrease of $16.7 million (64%). The decrease in total expenses was primarily the result of a decrease in marketing, general and administrative expenses and the legal reserve established in fiscal 2009 of $3.1 million, net of an insurance recovery of $0.2 million resulting from the litigation settlement described in Note 14 “Legal Settlement” in Part IV Financial Statements. The decrease was also offset by costs attributable to Pulse operating results, including costs of good sold of $0.1 million and marketing, general and administrative costs of $0.1 million for the period beginning June 18, 2010 through June 30, 2010.
 
Medical expenses for MA-SNP were $2.7 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $7.5 million from $10.2 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Medical expenses generally consist of claim payments, pharmacy costs, and estimates of future payments of claims provided for services rendered prior to the end of the reporting period (such estimates of medical claims incurred but not reported are also known as “IBNR”). The IBNR was primarily based on medical cost estimates from historical data provided by CMS and emerging medical claims experience together with current factors using accepted actuarial methods. The percentage of such medical expenses to medical premiums revenues for MA-SNP, referred to as the medical loss ratio, was 85.8% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 compared to 90.6% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.
 
General and administrative expenses were $6.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, as compared with $12.6 million for the prior fiscal year, a decrease of $6.3 million. The decrease was principally due to reductions in labor costs, adminstrative costs and professional services expenses resulting from the TennCare contract expiration and the expiration of the Medicare contract as well as the legal fees associated with the litigation as described Note 14 “Legal Settlement” in Part IV Financial Statements.
 
Provision for legal settlement totaled $3.1 million, net of $0.2 million in an insurance recovery for fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Since 2005, the Company had been a defendant in a lawsuit as described in Note 14 “Legal Settlement” in Part IV Financial Statements.
 
Depreciation and amortization expense was constant at $0.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 compared to fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.
 
Loss before income taxes was $5.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 compared to loss before income taxes of $8.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Such decrease in loss from operations of $3.3 million, or $0.36 per basic share, is principally due to the $3.2 reduction in the legal reserve as the litigation settlement was paid during the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
 
Income tax benefit was $0 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 compared to a benefit of $5,000 for the prior fiscal year. The Company’s effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 differs from the statutory rate due to the change in the valuation allowance. The Company increased its deferred tax asset valuation allowance due to uncertainties in its expected utilization, as a result of the expiration of the TennCare and the Medicare contracts.

Net loss was $5.4 million, or $(0.66) per basic share, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, compared to net loss of $8.7 million, or $(1.02) per basic share, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, a decrease in the net loss of $3.3 million (38%).
 
Review of Consolidated Results of Operations — Fiscal 2009 Compared to Fiscal 2008
 
Total revenues decreased $10.2 million (38%) to $16.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 compared to $26.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to discontinuance of the TennCare contract.
 
MA-SNP medical premiums revenues were $11.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 compared to $10.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, under UAHC-TN’s contract with CMS that began January 1, 2007. The increase in medical premiums results from additional revenue from a retroactive claims adjustment of $0.8 million received from CMS in 2009, as discussed below, partially offset by a decrease in the number of SNP members.
 
MA-SNP premium revenue is subject to adjustment based on the health risk of its members. This process for adjusting premiums is referred to as the CMS risk adjustment payment methodology. Under the risk adjustment payment methodology, managed care plans must capture, collect, and report diagnosis code information to CMS. After reviewing the respective submissions, CMS establishes the payments to Medicare plans generally at the beginning of the calendar year and then adjusts premiums on two separate occasions on a retroactive basis.
 
The net MA-SNP per member per month premium rate, based on an average membership of 699 for the year ended June 30, 2009, was $1,598 for that one-year period. The net MA-SNP per member per month premium rate, based on an average membership of 767 for the year ended June 30, 2008, was $1,228 for that one-year period.
 
Fixed administrative fees were $4.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of $9.9 million (68%) from fixed administrative fees of $14.5 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in fixed administrative fees is principally due to a decrease in members resulting from the discontinuance of the TennCare contract.
 
Variable administrative fees resulting from the MRA revenue were $0.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 compared to $1.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The $0.9 million in MRA revenue recorded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 related to fiscal year 2008.
 
Total expenses were $26.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, compared to $30.1 million for the prior fiscal year, a decrease of $4.1 million (13%) The decrease in total expenses was primarily the result of a decrease in marketing, general and administrative expenses and the fiscal year 2008 goodwill impairment charge of $3.5 million. The decrease in marketing, general and administrative expenses was offset by increased legal expenses and a legal reserve established of $3.1 million, net of an insurance recovery of $0.2 million resulting from the litigation settlement described in Note 14 “Legal Settlement” in Part IV Financial Statements.
 
Medical expenses for MA-SNP were $10.2 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $0.6 million from $9.6 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The medical loss ratio, was 90.6% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 compared to 87.8% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.
 
General and administrative expenses were $12.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, as compared with $16.9 million for the prior fiscal year, a decrease of $4.3 million. The decrease was principally due to reductions in labor costs, adminstrative costs and professional services expenses resulting from the TennCare contract expiration partially offset by severance and labor related expenses and the legal fees associated with the litigation as described in Note 14 “Legal Settlement” in Part IV Financial Statements.
 
Provision for legal settlement totaled $3.1 million, net of $0.2 million in insurance recovery for fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. There was no provision for legal settlement recorded for fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, as the amount was not determinable at the end of fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. Subsequent to June 30, 2009, the lawsuit was settled for $3.3 million and will be offset by insurance recovery of $0.2 million.

Table of Contents

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased slightly to $0.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 compared to $0.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The decrease results from the sale of fixed assets.
 
Loss before income taxes was $8.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 compared to loss before income taxes of $1.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. Such increase in loss from operations of $6.8 million, or $(0.79) per basic share, is principally due to reduction in revenue resulting from the expiration of the TennCare contract and the increase in legal expenses associated with litigation and the reserve established for the legal settlement.
 
Income tax benefit was $5,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 compared to expense of $2.1 million for the prior fiscal year. The Company’s effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 differs from the statutory rate. This difference was primarily due to the change in the valuation allowance. The Company increased its deferred tax asset valuation allowance due to uncertainties in its expected utilization as a result of the expiration of the TennCare contract and pending expiration of the Medicare contract.
 
Net loss was $8.7 million, or $(1.02) per basic share, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, compared to net loss of $4.0 million, or $(0.47) per basic share, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, an increase in the net loss of $4.7 million (115%).
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Capital resources, which for us is primarily cash from operations and Pulse debt facility are required to maintain our current operations and fund planned capital spending and other commitments and contingencies. The Company’s ability to maintain adequate amounts of cash to meet its future cash needs depends on a number of factors, particularly including its ability to control wind down costs related to the Medicare contract, and controlling corporate overhead costs. On the basis of the matters discussed above, management believes at this time that the Company has the sufficient cash to adequately support its financial requirements through the next twelve months. To the extent we need to refinance debt obligations, or fund major capital improvements or acquisitions, we may need to access the capital markets. Market conditions may continue to limit our sources of funds for these activities and our ability to refinance our debt obligations at present interest rate and other terms.
 
On June 18, 2010, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and a Warrant Purchase Agreement to acquire 100% of the outstanding common units and warrants to purchase common units of Pulse. The consideration paid to acquire the common units and warrants of Pulse totaled approximately $9.46 million, which consisted of (a) cash paid at closing of $3.40 million, (b) a non-interest bearing note payable of $1.75 million (secured by a subordinated pledge of all the common units of Pulse), (c) 1,608,039 shares of UAHC common stock determined based on an initial value of $1.6 million, (d) an estimated purchase price adjustment of $210,364 based on targeted levels of net working capital, cash and debt of Pulse at the acquisition date (e) and the funding of $2.5 million for certain obligations of Pulse. The Company also assumed Pulse’s outstanding term loan. See “— Acquisition of Pulse Systems, LLC” above for additional discussion.
 
At June 30, 2010, the Company had (i) cash and cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities of $3.5 million, compared to $17.6 million at June 30, 2009; (ii) negative working capital of ($1.0) million, compared to working capital of $12.2 million at June 30, 2009; and (iii) a current assets-to-current liabilities ratio of 0.89 to 1, compared to 2.72 to 1 at June 30, 2009.
 
Net cash used in operating activities was $9.7 million in fiscal 2010 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $6.2 million in fiscal 2009. Cash used in operations is primarily due to decreased revenue and income, resulting from the expiration of the TennCare and Medicare contracts. Excluding the impact of the Pulse acquisition, total receivables decreased by $1.3 million at June 30, 2010 compared to June 30, 2009, primarily due to the decrease in operating activity associated with the expiration of the TennCare contract, the $0.2 million in insurance recovery receivable related to the legal settlement and $0.8 million related to the CMS retroactive risk premium adjustment, offset by a $27,000 increase resulting from changes in Pulse net trade receivables. Medical claims payable decreased by $2.1 million at June 30, 2010 compared to June 30, 2009. The decrease is primarily due to wind-down of the Medicare contract. Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased by $0.8 million at

June 30, 2010 compared to June 30, 2009, principally due to the decrease in operating activity associated with the expiration of the TennCare contract, which was offset by increased legal fees related to litigation. The reserve for legal settlement decreased by $3.3 million resulting from the litigation described in Note 14 “Legal Settlement” in Part IV Financial Statements.
 
Cash provided by investing activities of $0.3 million was primarily impacted by cash consideration paid in the Pulse acquisition of $5.6 million, net of cash acquired. Cash proceeds from the maturity of marketable securities of $9.2 million was offset by cash purchases of maturity securities of $3.3 million.
 
Net cash used in financing activities was $0.3 million and resulted from notes payable payments made to the bank. Cash used in financing activities of $1.0 million during fiscal year 2009 was due to a share repurchase program. On November 25, 2008, the Company’s board of directors approved the share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $1.0 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. In 2009, the Company had repurchased a total of 670,795 shares at an average price of $1.46 per share under the share repurchase program for a total of $981,370. No shares were repurchased in fiscal 2010. Effective, November 13, 2009, the board of directors discontinued the share repurchase program. As of such date, the Company had repurchased a total of 670,795 shares at an average price of $1.46 per share under the share repurchase program.
 
The net decrease in total cash flow was $9.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, compared to a net increase in cash flow of $2.4 million for the prior fiscal year.
 
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, UAHC-TN, had a required minimum net worth requirement using statutory accounting practices of $1.5 million at June 30, 2010. UAHC-TN had excess statutory net worth of approximately $2.4 million at June 30, 2010. The net worth and depository requirement was in effect through June 30, 2010. At such time, UAHC-TN, must continue to maintain a depository requirements of at least $0.9 million as statutory reserves for its ongoing Medicare operations.
 
Source of Liquidity
 
Following its acquisition by the Company, Pulse Systems remains party to the Loan and Security Agreement, as amended (the “Loan Agreement”), with Fifth Third Bank, which currently relates to a revolving loan not to exceed $1.0 million, of which no amounts were outstanding as of the closing, and a $5.0 million term loan, with a remaining balance of $3.98 million as of June 30, 2010. The revolving loan matures June 30, 2011 and bears interest at prime plus 4% or, at the option of Pulse Systems, Adjusted LIBOR (the greater of LIBOR or 3%) plus 4%. The term loan interest rate is 9.75%. The revolving loan and term loan are secured by a lien on all of the assets of Pulse Systems.
 
The Loan Agreement contains financial covenants. In connection with the acquisition and the execution of the Second Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), the lender waived the existing defaults under the Loan Agreement arising from Pulse System’s failure to satisfy (a) the Adjusted EBITDA (as defined therein) covenant as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, (b) the Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA covenant (as defined therein) as of March 31, 2010, (c) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined therein) as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, and (d) to timely deliver audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. In addition, the Amendment modified the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, to among other things, add $750,000 to the calculation to reflect the $750,000 contribution to capital made by UAHC to Pulse Systems at closing which was applied to reduce the amount of Pulse System’s debt.
 
In addition, UAHC has pledged its membership interests in Pulse Systems to Fifth Third as additional security for the loans, as set forth in the Membership Interest Pledge Agreement (the “Pledge Agreement”). The Pledge Agreement restricts the ability of UAHC to incur additional indebtedness, other than the Seller Note and up to $1.0 million of unsecured working capital financing. The Pledge Agreement also generally restricts the payments of dividends or distributions on, and redemptions of, UAHC common stock, except as permitted under the Standstill Agreement, as amended.

Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2010. This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
On June 18, 2010, the Company acquired Pulse Systems, LLC. Management has excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010 Pulse’s internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of $15.8 million and total liabilities of $5.1 million included in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2010.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. However all internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and reporting.
 
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on such assessment, management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010 based on those criteria.
 
On June 18, 2010, the Company acquired Pulse Systems, LLC. Management has excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010 Pulse’s internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of $15.8 million (approximately 78% of total consolidated assets at June 30, 2010) and total liabilities of $5.1 million (approximately 47% of total consolidated liabilities at June 30, 2010) that are included in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2010.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
Board of Directors
United American Healthcare Corporation:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of United American Healthcare Corporation and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, 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.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of United American Healthcare Corporation and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008
 
NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
United American Healthcare Corporation (the “Company” or “UAHC”) was incorporated in Michigan on December 1, 1983 and commenced operations in May 1985.
 
From November 1993 to June 2009, the Company’s indirect, wholly owned subsidiary, UAHC Health Plan of Tennessee, Inc. (“UAHC-TN”), was a managed care organization in the TennCare program, a State of Tennessee program that provided medical benefits to Medicaid and working uninsured recipients. On April 22, 2008, the Company learned that UAHC-TN would no longer be authorized to provide managed care services as a TennCare contractor when its present TennCare contract expired on June 30, 2009. UAHC-TN’s TennCare members transferred to other managed care organizations on November 1, 2008, after which UAHC-TN continued to perform its remaining contractual obligations through its TennCare contract expiration date of June 30, 2009. However, revenue under this contract was only earned through October 31, 2008.
 
From January 2007 to December 2009, UAHC-TN served as a Medicare Advantage qualified organization (the “Medicare contract”) pursuant to a contract with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”). The contract authorized UAHC-TN to serve members enrolled in both the Tennessee Medicaid and Medicare programs, commonly referred to as “dual-eligibles,” specifically to offer a Special Needs Plan (“SNP”) to its eligible members in Shelby County, Tennessee (including the City of Memphis), and to operate a Voluntary Medicare Prescription Drug Plan. The Company did not seek renewal of the Medicare contract, which expired December 31, 2009. The Company is continuing to wind down the Medicare business and expects to continue to incur costs related to the Medicare business through December 31,2010, including labor, claim processing and the differential costs related to Tennessee facility sublease.
 
As a result of an in-depth strategic review, on June 18, 2010, UAHC acquired Pulse Systems, LLC (referred to as “Pulse Systems” or “Pulse” or “Pulse Sellers”) for consideration with a fair value of $9.0 million, net of cash acquired and subject to certain purchase price adjustments. With the acquisition of Pulse Systems, LLC, on June 18, 2010 UAHC now provides contract manufacturing services to the medical device industry, with a focus on precision laser-cutting capabilities and the processing of thin-wall tubular metal components, sub-assemblies and implants, primarily in the cardiovascular market.
 
NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Priniciples” (“GAAP”), which establishes the ASC as the sole source of authoritative generally accepted accounting principles. Pursuant to the provisions of ASC 105, the Company has updated references to GAAP in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2010. The adoption of ASC 105 did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with GAAP.
 
a. Principles of Consolidation.  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United American Healthcare Corporation, its wholly owned subsidiary, United American of Tennessee, Inc. (“UA-TN”) and its wholly owned subsidiary Pulse Systems, LLC. UAHC Health Plan of Tennessee, Inc. (formerly called OmniCare Health Plan, Inc.) (“UAHC-TN”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of UA-TN. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
b. Use of Estimates.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates as more information becomes available and any such difference could be significant. The most significant estimates that are

susceptible to change in the near term relate to the determination of medical claims payable and the final allocation of the purchase price for Pulse Systems to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
 
c. Cash and Cash Equivalents.  The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
d. Marketable Securities.  Investments in marketable securities are considered “available for sale” securities and are primarily comprised of certificates of deposit, U.S. Treasury notes, and debt issues of municipalities. Marketable securities are carried at fair value based upon published quotations of the underlying securities, and certificates of deposit at cost, which approximates fair value. Marketable securities placed in escrow to meet statutory funding requirements, although considered available for sale, are not reasonably expected to be used in the normal operating cycle of the Company and are classified as non-current. All other securities are classified as current.
 
Interest and dividend income is recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses on investments in marketable securities are included in other income and are derived using the specific identification method for determining the cost of the securities sold. Unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of income taxes.
 
A summary of marketable securities as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 is as follows (in thousands):
 
                 
    2010     2009

    900       2,370  
                 
    $ 900     $ 6,845  
                 
 
e. Accounts Receivable.  Receivables at June 30, 2010 and 2009 consist of the following (in thousands):
 
                 
    2010     2009  
 
Trade receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts
  $ 910     $  
Retroactive adjustments for Medicare revenue

    19       81  
                 
Total accounts receivable
  $ 954     $ 1,458  
                 
 
Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying trouble accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. The Company also determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition and credit history and current economic conditions. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $42,000 and $0 as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
f. Property and Equipment.  Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures and improvements, which add significantly to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset, are capitalized. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Estimated useful lives of the major classes of property and

equipment are as follows: furniture and fixtures — 5 years; equipment — 7 years; and computer software — 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are included in furniture and fixtures and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. The Company uses accelerated methods for income tax purposes.
 
g. Goodwill.  Goodwill resulting from business acquisitions is carried at cost. The carrying amount of goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level, as defined, and will only be reduced if it is found to be impaired or is associated with assets sold or otherwise disposed of.
 
As a result of the acquisition of Pulse, the Company recorded Goodwill of $10.4 million. At June 30, 2010, goodwill was adjusted to $10.0 million to reflect the change in fair value of common stock payable at June 30, 2010. See Note 7 below for additional discussion of the Pulse transaction. The roll forward of goodwill is as follows (in thousands):

In 2008, management assessed the remaining carrying amount of previously recorded goodwill of $3.5 million and determined that such amount was impaired in accordance with GAAP, as a result of the TennCare contract termination as further discussed in Note 13 below. Accordingly, goodwill impairment was recorded for $3.5 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. There was no goodwill impairment charges recorded during fiscal years 2010 or 2009.
 
h. Long-Lived Assets.  Long-lived assets are reviewed by the Company for events or changes in circumstances which would indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In making this determination, the Company considers a number of factors, including estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with long-lived assets, current and historical operating and cash flow results and other economic factors. When any such impairment exists, the related assets are written down to fair value. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that long-lived assets are not impaired.
 
i. Medical Claims Payable.  The Company provides for medical claims incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) for its Medicare Advantage members and the cost of adjudicating claims primarily based on medical cost estimates from historical data provided by the CMS and emerging medical claims experience together with current factors using accepted actuarial methods. Although considerable variability is inherent in such estimates, management believes that these reserves are adequate.

j. Revenue Recognition.  Medical premiums revenues are recognized in the month in which members are entitled to receive healthcare services. Medical premiums collected in advance are recorded as deferred revenues. Medical premium revenue is subject to adjustment based on the health risk of its members. The process for adjusting premiums is referred to as the CMS risk adjustment payment methodology. Risk adjustment payments are recognized in the period in which UAHC-TN is notified thereof by CMS.
 
Under TennCare’s administrative services only (“ASO”) arrangement, fixed administrative fee revenues were recognized in the period the related services are performed. In accordance with GAAP, when applicable, the Company’s revenue recognition policy has been adjusted to reflect ASO revenue in which UAHC-TN assumed no risk for medical claims. Variable administrative fee revenues are recognized in the period in which UAHC-TN is notified thereof by TennCare. See Note 13 for further discussion of TennCare and Medicare revenue.
 
Contract manufacturing service revenue is recognized when title to the product transfers, no remaining performance obligations exist, the terms of the sale are fixed and collection is probable, which generally occurs at shipment.
 
k. Medical Services Expense Recognition.  The Company contracts with various healthcare providers for the provision of certain medical services to its members and generally compensates those providers on a capitated and fee-for-service basis. Such medical service expenses generally consist of claim payments, pharmacy costs, and estimates of future payments of claims provided for services rendered prior to the end of the reporting period. Pharmacy costs represent payments for members’ prescription drug benefits. The estimates for medical claims payable are regularly reviewed and adjusted as necessary, with such adjustments generally reflected in current operations.
 
l. Stop Loss Insurance.  Stop loss insurance premiums are reported as medical services expense, while the related insurance recoveries are reported as deductions from medical services expense.
 
m. Income Taxes.  Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce the deferred tax assets and liabilities to the amount expected to be realized. The deferred income tax provision or benefit generally reflects the net change in deferred income tax assets and liabilities during the year. The current income tax provision reflects the tax consequences of revenues and expenses currently taxable or deductible for the period.
 
n. Earnings (Loss) Per Share.  Basic net loss per share excluding dilution has been computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed the same as basic except that the denominator also includes shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options and warrants. For the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company had outstanding stock options and warrants which were not included in the computation of loss per share because the shares would be anti-dilutive due to the net loss each period. In connection with the Pulse acquisition, the Company issued 1,608,039 shares of UAHC common stock subsequent to year end. See Note 7 for additional information.
 
o. Segment Information.  The Company reports financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Financial information is reported on the basis that it is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments.
 
p. Inventories.  Inventories are valued at the lower of cost, on a first-in, first- out method, or market. Work in process and finished goods include materials, labor and allocated overhead.

NOTE 3 — FAIR VALUE
 
To prioritize the inputs the Company uses in measuring fair value, the Company applies a three-tier fair value hierarchy. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, reflects management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration was given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model. Determining which hierarchical level an asset or liability falls within requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter. The following table summarizes the financial instruments measured at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2010 and 2009:

  $     $     $     $  
 
The Company uses an interest swap to manage the risk associated with its floating long-term notes payable. As interest rates changes, the differential paid or received is recognized in interest expense for the period. In addition, the change in fair value of the swaps is recognized as interest expense or income during each reporting period. The fair value of the interest rate swap was determined to be $95,000 using valuation models rather than actual quotes. The fixed interest rate of the interest rate swap is 4.78%. The Company has not designated these interest rate swaps for hedge accounting.
 
As of June 30, 2010, the aggregate notional amount of the swap agreements was $4.5 million, which will mature on March 31, 2014. The notional amount of the swap will decrease by $0.3 million each quarter or $1.2 million each year. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterpart to the interest rate swap agreements. The interest rate swaps are classified within level 2 of the fair market measurements.
 
The amount of total gains for the period included in other comprehensive income attributable to the change in unrealized gains related to assets still held at June 30, 2010 was $6,000. The total loss included in earnings for the year ended June 30, 2010 related to the interest rate swap was $11,000.
 
NOTE 4 — CONCENTRATION OF RISK
 
During the year ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, approximately 82%, 67% and 39%, respectively of the Company’s revenues were derived from one customer, CMS. In addition, during the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, approximately 9%, 33% and 61%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues were derived from another customer, TennCare. As discussed in Note 13 below, the non-renewal of the contract with TennCare and the discontinuance of the Medicare contract had a material effect on the operating results of the Company.

NOTE 6 — MEDICAL CLAIMS PAYABLE
 
The Company has recorded a liability of $0.1 million and $2.2 million at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, for unpaid medical claims incurred by former enrollees. The medical claims liability incurred through June 30, 2010 represents the liability for services that have been performed by providers for the Company’s Medicare Advantage members. Included in the incurred expense related to the current year are medical claims reported to UAHC-TN as well as claims that have been incurred but not yet reported to it, or “IBNR”. The IBNR component is primarily based on medical cost estimates from historical data provided by CMS and emerging medical claims experience together with current factors. The IBNR reserve estimated at June 30, 2010 and 2009 was derived by an independent actuarial analysis. Each period, the Company re-examines the previously established medical claims liability estimates based on actual claim submissions and other relevant changes in facts and circumstances. As the liability estimates recorded in prior periods become more exact, the Company will increase or decrease the amount of the estimates, and include the changes in medical expenses in the period in which the change is identified. The ultimate settlement of medical claims may vary from the estimated amounts reported at June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the difference could be material.
 
The following table provides a reconciliation of the unpaid claims as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 (in thousands):

NOTE 7 — ACQUISITION
 
On June 18, 2010, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and a Warrant Purchase Agreement to acquire 100% of the outstanding common units and warrants to purchase common units of Pulse. The

consideration paid to acquire the common units and warrants of Pulse totaled approximately $9.46 million, which consisted of (a) cash paid at closing of $3.40 million, (b) a non-interest bearing note payable of $1.75 million (secured by a subordinated pledge of all the common units of Pulse), (c) 1,608,039 shares of UAHC common stock determined based on an initial value of $1.6 million, (d) an estimated purchase price adjustment of $210,364 based on targeted levels of net working capital, cash and debt of Pulse at the acquisition date (e) and the funding of $2.5 million for certain obligations of Pulse as discussed below. The shares of UAHC common stock were issued on July 12, 2010, upon approval by the Company’s board of directors on July 7, 2010 and, therefore, were revalued at June 30, 2010. The shares of UAHC common stock had a fair value of $1.05 million as of June 30, 2010, which has been recorded as accrued purchase price, and a fair value of $884,000 on July 12, 2010, the date the shares were issued and recorded. The Company also assumed Pulse’s term loan to a bank of $4.25 million, after making a payment at closing as discussed below.
 
In connection with the acquisition of the Pulse common units, Pulse entered into a redemption agreement with the holders of its preferred units to redeem the preferred units for $3.99 million. Pulse is only allowed to redeem the preferred units if UAHC makes additional cash equity contributions to Pulse in an amount necessary to fully fund each such redemption. UAHC funded an initial payment of $1.75 million to the preferred unitholders on June 18, 2010. Pulse has agreed to redeem the remaining preferred units over a two-year period ending in June 2012. Finally, as an additional condition of closing, UAHC funded a $750,000 payment toward Pulse’s outstanding term loan with a bank and pledged all of the common units of Pulse to the bank as additional security for the remaining $4.25 million outstanding under the loan. The initial payment of $1.75 million to the preferred unitholders and the $750,000 payment to the bank by UAHC are considered additional consideration for the acquisition of Pulse. The funding of the remaining redemption payments totaling $2.24 million and the assumption of Pulse’s revolving and term loans are not included in the $9.46 million purchase price listed above.
 
On the date of acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $10.4 million. At June 30, 2010, goodwill was adjusted to $10.0 million to reflect the change in fair value of common stock payable to the seller at June 30, 2010. Goodwill will not be amortized and will be tested for impairment quarterly or as circumstances require. It has not been determined if tax elections will be made that would permit the Company to amortize such goodwill for tax purposes.

2010 and 2009. The Company expects no significant increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits due to changes in tax positions within one year of June 30, 2010. The Company has no interest or penalties relating to income taxes recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, or in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2010 and 2009. The Company’s tax returns for fiscal 2006 and later remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the respective states.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. As a result of the TennCare contract termination and losses in recent years, management believes that the realization of deferred tax assets does not meet the more likely than not threshold for recognition.

The fair value of options at date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in 2009 and 2008, depending on the date of issuance:
 
     
Dividend yield
  0%
Expected volatility
  29% to 66%
Risk free interest rate
  3.44% to 4.81%
Expected life
  5.0 to 10.0 years
 
The options have terms ranging from 5.0 to 10.0 years and typically vest quarterly over 3 years. Through March 2012, total compensation expense to be recognized is expected to be $0.1 million related to these options. The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted was $1.86 in fiscal 2009 and $1.54 in fiscal 2008. The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $186,406 in fiscal 2008. The intrinsic values were determined as of the date of exercise. There were no grants in fiscal 2010, and there were no exercises in fiscal 2009 or 2010.
 
There are warrants also outstanding to purchase 99,999 shares of the Company’s stock at an exercise price of $8.50 per share and 50,000 shares with an exercise price of $9.01. All of these warrants expire in December 2011.

Following its acquisition by the Company, Pulse Systems remains party to the Loan and Security Agreement, as amended (the “Loan Agreement”), with Fifth Third Bank, which currently relates to a revolving loan not to exceed $1.0 million, of which no amounts were outstanding as of the closing or as of June 30, 2010, and a $5.0 million term loan, with a remaining balance of $4.25 million as of the closing and $3.98 million as of June 30, 2010. The revolving loan matures June 30, 2011 and bears interest at prime plus 4% or, at the option of Pulse Systems, Adjusted LIBOR (the greater of LIBOR or 3%) plus 4%. The term loan interest is payable monthly and is calculated based on a LIBOR base rate plus an applicable margin, with $265,625 quarterly principal payments due through March 2014. The term loan effective interest rate is 9.75% as of June 30, 2010. Total interest expense recorded in the consolidated statement of operations was $15,000. The revolving loan and term loan are secured by a lien on all of the assets of Pulse Systems.
 
The Loan Agreement contains financial covenants. In connection with the acquisition and the execution of the Second Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), the lender waived the existing defaults under the Loan Agreement arising from Pulse Systems’ failure to satisfy (a) the Adjusted EBITDA (as defined therein) covenant as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, (b) the Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA covenant (as defined therein) as of March 31, 2010, (c) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined therein) as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, and (d) to timely deliver audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. In addition, the Amendment modified the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, to among other things, add $750,000 to the calculation to reflect the $750,000 contribution to capital made by UAHC to Pulse Systems at closing which was applied to reduce the amount of Pulse Systems’ debt.
 
In addition, UAHC has pledged its membership interests in Pulse Systems to Fifth Third as additional security for the loans, as set forth in the Membership Interest Pledge Agreement (the “Pledge Agreement”). The Pledge Agreement restricts the ability of UAHC to incur additional indebtedness, other than the Seller Note and up to $1.0 million of unsecured working capital financing. The Pledge Agreement also generally restricts the payments of

dividends or distributions on, and redemptions of, UAHC common stock, except as permitted under the Standstill Agreement, as amended. See Note 18 for additional discussion of the Standstill agreement.
 
The Company also has a promissory note in the principal amount of $1.75 million made in favor of the Sellers with a stated amount of $1.75 million payable on January 2, 2011. The recorded amount of the promissory note at June 30, 2010 was $1.6 million calculated using a discount rate of 12%. The promissory note is non-interest bearing and secured by a pledge of the common units of Pulse Systems acquired by UAHC. The Sellers’ security interest in the common units of Pulse Systems is subordinate to that of Fifth Third. Approximately, $1.2 million of the notes payable is allocable to Chicago Venture Partners, L.P. Chicago Venture Partners, L.P. is 64.8% owned by of John Fife, a related party, who has 13.8% beneficial ownership in UAHC.

NOTE 12 — LEASES
 
The Company leases its facilities and certain furniture and equipment under operating leases expiring at various dates through December 2010. Terms of the facility leases generally provide that the Company pay its pro rata share of all operating expenses, including insurance, property taxes and maintenance. As a result of the TennCare Contract expiration and the Medicare contract expiration, the Company has subleased the Memphis, Tennessee facility. See Note 13 for further discussion.
 
Rent expense for the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, totaled $0.1 million, $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Based on the current commitments, the Company will incur rent of $0.1 million for fiscal year 2011. These commitments are net of sublease income of $0.2 million for 2011.
 
The Company leases equipment under various noncancelable capital leases which expire at various dates through July 2013. Lease payments totaling $9,600 are payable monthly and include interest at approximately 8 percent to 9 percent. The leases are collateralized by the underlying assets. Minimum future lease payments under the capital lease as of June 30, 2010 are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 13 — TENNESSEE OPERATIONS
 
UAHC-TN was for many consecutive years a managed care organization in the TennCare program. On April 22, 2008, the Company learned that UAHC-TN would no longer be authorized to provide managed care

services as a TennCare contractor when its TennCare contract expired. UAHC-TN’s TennCare members transferred to other managed care organizations on November 1, 2008, after which UAHC-TN continued to perform its remaining contractual obligations through its TennCare contract expiration date of June 30, 2009. However, revenue under this contract was only earned through October 31, 2008.
 
From January 2007 to December 2009, UAHC-TN served as a Medicare contractor with CMS. The contract authorized UAHC-TN to offer a SNP to its eligible members in Shelby County, Tennessee (including the City of Memphis), and to operate a Voluntary Medicare Prescription Drug Plan. The Company did not seek renewal of the Medicare contract, which expired December 31, 2009. The Company is continuing to wind down the Medicare business and expects to continue to incur costs related to the Medicare business through December 31, 2010, including labor, claim processing and the differential costs related to Tennessee facility sublease. The costs related to the wind down of the Medicare contract are expected to be approximately $0.1 million to $0.2 million.
 
The Company recognizes a liability for certain costs associated with an exit or disposal activity and measures the liability initially at its fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred. The costs to be recognized include employee termination benefits, lease termination and costs to relocate the Company’s facility. The following table summarizes certain exit costs resulting from the TennCare contract expiration and the expiration of the Medicare contract (in thousands):

The cumulative costs incurred through June 30, 2010 amounted to $1.1 million. These costs are included in marketing, general and administrative expenses in our statement of operations. Approximately $0.3 million of these costs related to the Management Companies and $0.8 million relate to the HMO & Managed Plan. In connection with the discontinuance of the TennCare and Medicare contracts, the Company reduced its workforce, subleased its leased Tennessee facility to a third party effective April 2009 and ending December 31, 2010. At June 30, 2010, the Company no longer had a Tennessee office. The discontinuance of the TennCare and Medicare contracts has had a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations and financial statements in fiscal 2009 and 2010.
 
NOTE 14 — LEGAL SETTLEMENT
 
The Company was a defendant with others in a lawsuit that commenced in February 2005 in the Circuit Court for the 30th Judicial Circuit, in the County of Ingham, Michigan, Case No. 05127CK, entitled “Provider Creditors Committee on behalf of Michigan Health Maintenance Organizations Plans, Inc. v. United American Healthcare Corporation and others, et al.” On September 22, 2009, the Company settled this litigation for $3.3 million and all claims were dismissed against the Company and the individuals. The Company recovered $0.2 million through insurance. In the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company recorded a provision for this legal settlement of $3.1 million, which is net of the insurance reimbursement of $0.2 million in the fiscal year 2009 statement of operations. The related liability $3.3 million was included in reserve for legal settlement and the insurance reimbursement of $0.2 million was included in the other receivables on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2009.
 
NOTE 15 — REDEEMABLE PREFERRED MEMBER UNITS
 
In connection with the acquisition of Pulse, Pulse Systems also entered into a Redemption Agreement, dated June 18, 2010 (the “Redemption Agreement”), with Pulse Systems Corporation, the holder of all of the outstanding preferred units in Pulse Systems. The aggregate redemption price is $3.99 million for the preferred units, including


F-21


Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
 
the accrued but unpaid return on such units, which reflects a $0.83 million reduction from the actual outstanding amount as of the date of the agreement. In addition, the 14% dividend rate on the preferred units is eliminated, subject to reinstatement if there is a default as explained in the next sentence. If Pulse Systems fails to pay the entire $3.99 million redemption price as required by the terms of the redemption agreement, the $0.83 million discount is eliminated and the preferred units will be entitled to a 14% per annum cumulative (but not compounded) return, consistent with the current terms of the preferred units. Pulse Systems Corporation has agreed to the redemption of its preferred units over a two-year period, commencing with a cash payment made at closing of $1.75 million. On August 30, 2010, Pulse Systems redeemed $40,000 of the preferred units and has agreed to continue to redeem $40,000 each month for the next 21 months, with a final payment of $1.36 million in June 2012. The obligations of Pulse Systems under the redemption agreement are subordinate to its obligations under the Loan Agreement and Pledge Agreement. In addition, the redemption payments can be made only if UAHC makes additional cash equity contributions to Pulse Systems in an amount necessary to fully fund each such payment. The redeemable preferred units were recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value of approximately $1.85 million, discounted using an interest rate of 12%.

The standstill and voting obligations described in the Standstill Agreement continue until March 31, 2012, unless earlier terminated if the Put (as defined below) is exercised or if there is an event of default (as defined in the Standstill Agreement). The Put can be exercised beginning on October 1, 2011 and expires March 31, 2012. However, as of March 19, 2010, the Put can be accelerated at any time immediately upon the occurrence of certain events of default.
 
The Company has the right to purchase all of the Shares (the “Call”) and St. George has the right to require the Company to purchase some or all of the Shares (the “Put”). The Put price is $1.26. The Company may exercise the Call at $1.14 per share, if the Call is exercised on or prior to June 30, 2011. If the Call occurs between July 1, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the Call price is the same as the Put price. The Call expires upon the earliest of September 30, 2011 and a “Triggering Event” which is defined to mean the Company’s execution of a letter of intent for a business combination, the Company’s execution of definitive documents for a business combination and the Company’s public announcement of a business combination. A business combination would include an acquisition of the Company or by the Company.
 
St. George has granted to the Company the right, commencing May 1, 2010, to require St. George to invest $600,000 in the Company (the “Capital Call”). The Capital Call expires upon the earlier of July 1, 2011 and the Company’s filing of a registration statement for St. George’s shares. If the Capital Call is exercised, St. George would be issued that number of shares of a newly designated series of non-voting convertible preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”) based on the dollar volume weighted average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 calendar days prior to the date of the issuance of the shares of Preferred Stock; however, if there is a Triggering Event, the calculation would be based on the 30 calendar pays prior to the Triggering Event. The Preferred Stock would be convertible at any time at the option of St. George into shares of the Company’s common stock at a ratio of 1:1, with such conversion ratio subject to adjustment in the event of certain stock splits or dividends or in the event of a business combination or similar transaction. The Preferred Stock would have a 3% per annum dividend which, at the option of the Company, would be payable in cash or in additional shares of Preferred Stock. The common shares acquired upon conversion of the Preferred Stock is subject to the Company’s Call right, and the holder of the Preferred Stock has a Put right, on the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the shares of common stock beneficially owned by St. George. The terms of the Preferred Stock are set forth in the Certificate of Designation which is an exhibit to the Standstill Agreement. The Certificate of Designation would be filed by the Company concurrently with exercise of the Capital Call.
 
The Company has agreed to maintain certain reserves of its unrestricted cash on its balance sheet, initially equal to 20% of the Company’s pro forma estimate of its 2010 fiscal year end shareholders’ equity and then equal to the Company’s actual 2010 fiscal year-end shareholders’ equity thereafter. The Company’s shareholders’ equity as of 2010 fiscal year end is approximately $9.9 million, which requires a minimum corresponding reserve of approximately 2.0 million. The Standstill Agreement permits St. George and its assigns to own up to 35% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares, which corresponds to a maximum reserve of $3.5 million. On June 7, 2010, the Company entered into an Amendment to the Standstill Agreement which permits the Company, at its option, to eliminate the cash reserve provided that the Company provides substitute collateral reasonably acceptable to St. George.
 
Additionally, if the Capital Call was exercised (either at the Company’s option or due to a Triggering Event), the Company would have to reserve cash to satisfy the put on the preferred shares issued pursuant to the Capital Call, in addition to the amounts reserved for the Company’s put obligations on the common stock. The reserve for the put on the preferred shares cannot be calculated until the Capital Call is exercised because although the price of the put on the preferred shares is set at $1.26, the number of preferred shares issued pursuant to the Capital Call is based upon the dollar volume weighted average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 calendar days prior to the date of the issuance of the preferred shares, or if there a Triggering Event, the calculation would be based on the 30 calendar days prior to the Triggering Event. Effective June 18, 2010, the closing date of the Pulse

Systems acquisition, the Company entered into an agreement with St. George and The Dove Foundation (a party joined to the Standstill Agreement on June 7, 2010), whereby St. George and The Dove Foundation agreed that the Pulse Systems acquisition shall not be considered a “Triggering Event” under the Standstill Agreement.
 
Lawsuit
 
On March 31, 2010, Strategic Turnaround Equity Partners, L.P. (Cayman) (“STEP”) filed suit against the Company, Thomas Goss (Chairman of the Company’s Board), John Fife and Fife affiliates (“Fife”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Case No. 10-cv-11305, seeking an injunction against a proxy solicitation by the Company, voting of Fife shares, and implementation of a Voting and Standstill Agreement dated March 19, 2010 between the Company and St. George Investments, LLC, one of the Fife affiliates. STEP alleged that the Company’s preliminary proxy materials for the 2010 annual meeting of shareholders violated Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that Fife was prohibited from voting shares by virtue of a provision in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and that the Voting and Standstill Agreement violated the Articles of Incorporation and Michigan law. On April 7, 2010, STEP sought an order directing the holding of the Company’s annual meeting on April 23, 2010. On April 9, 2010, the district court denied STEP’s motion relating to the April 23 meeting. On April 28, 2010, the Company filed a motion to dismiss STEP’s lawsuit. On May 6, 2010, STEP filed a motion for summary judgment. A hearing on STEP’s motion for preliminary injunction, STEP’s motion for summary judgment, and the Company’s motion to dismiss was held on June 15, 2010.
 
On June 25, 2010, the Company filed a counter-complaint against STEP and a third-party complaint against Galloway Capital Management, LLC, Bruce Galloway, Gary L. Herman, Seth M. Lukash, and Fred Zeidman, alleging violations of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In the third-party complaint, the Company also made a claim against Bruce Galloway, alleging Mr. Galloway breached his statutory and common-law fiduciary duties to the Company.
 
On June 28, 2010, the district court issued an opinion and order on the parties’ respective motions. The district court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss in part, holding that STEP’s claim against the Company under Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 failed to state an actionable claim. Accordingly, the district court dismissed this claim with prejudice. The district court dismissed without prejudice the remainder of STEP’s claims against the Company for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. The district court further ordered that the Company’s counter-complaint and third-party complaint be stricken. Therefore, the district court entered a judgment in favor of the Company and the other defendants against STEP.
 
On July 2, 2010, STEP filed suit against the Company in the Wayne County (Michigan) Circuit Court, Case No. 10-007629-CZ, seeking a mandatory injunction to order the Company to hold its annual meeting on or before August 4, 2010, and to set a record date of June 7, 2010. On July 6, 2010, STEP filed a motion for mandatory injunction. On July 15, 2010, the Company announced that its annual meeting would be set for September 30, 2010, with a record date of September 1, 2010. The Company filed with the circuit court a brief in opposition to STEP’s motion for mandatory injunction. On July 16, 2010, the circuit court held a hearing on STEP’s motion for mandatory injunction. On July 21, 2010, the circuit court entered an order that the Company will hold its annual meeting on the date the Company selected (September 30, 2010) and the record date will be the date selected by the Company (September 1, 2010). The circuit court’s July 21, 2010 order resolved and closed the case.
 
On August 17, 2010, STEP and Bruce Galloway filed suit against the Company in the Wayne County (Michigan) Circuit Court, Case No. 10-009344-CZ, seeking, among other things, a rescission of the Pulse Systems acquisition and an injunction against the voting of shares issued pursuant to the Pulse Systems acquisition. On August 27, 2010, STEP and Mr. Galloway filed a motion for preliminary injunction. The hearing on STEP’s and Mr. Galloway’s motion for preliminary injunction has been noticed for September 17, 2010.

Exhibit 3.3
AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS
OF
UNITED AMERICAN HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
(including all amendments adopted as of July 7, 2008)
ARTICLE I
Offices
     The Corporation shall continuously maintain a registered office in Michigan and may have such other office(s) at such place(s), both within and outside the State of Michigan, as the Board of Directors (the “Board”) from time to time determines or as the business of the Corporation from time to time requires.
ARTICLE II
Meetings of Shareholders
     Section 1. Annual Meetings. Subject to the provisions of Section 6(c) of Article IX of these bylaws (the “Bylaws”), annual meetings of the Corporation’s shareholders (“Shareholders”) shall be held at such time and place (within or outside the State of Michigan) as shall be designated from time to time by the Board and stated in the notice of the meeting. Subject to the Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Articles”), at each annual meeting Shareholders shall elect directors to succeed those whose terms expire and shall transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.
     Section 2. Special Meetings. Unless otherwise prescribed by law, the Articles or these Bylaws, special meetings of Shareholders for any purpose or purposes may be called only by the chairman of the Board, chief executive officer or president, and shall be called by the chief executive officer or secretary upon the written request of a majority of the total number of directors of the Corporation. Requests for special meetings shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting and shall state that no other business shall be conducted. Special meetings of Shareholders shall be held at such time and place (within or outside the State of Michigan) as shall be designated from time to time by the Board and stated in the notice of the meeting. Business transacted at special meetings shall be confined to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice.
    Section 3. Notices of Annual and Special Meetings.
  (a)   Except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles or these Bylaws, written notice of any annual or special meeting of Shareholders shall state the place, date and time thereof and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, and shall be given,

At least 10 days (but not more than 60 days) before any meeting of Shareholders, the officer or transfer agent in charge of the stock transfer books of the Corporation shall prepare and make a complete list of the Shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting, which list shall be arranged alphabetically within each class and series of shares and shall show the address of each Shareholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each Shareholder. The list so prepared shall be maintained at a place within the locality where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held, and shall be open to inspection by any Shareholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours during a period of no less than 10 days prior to the meeting. The list also shall be produced and kept open at the meeting (during the entire duration thereof) and, except as otherwise provided by law, may be inspected by any Shareholder or proxy of a Shareholder who is present in person at such meeting.

      place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken and at the adjourned meeting only business is transacted as might have been transacted at the original meeting, until a date which is not more than 30 days after the date of the original meeting.
 
  (d)   Anything in paragraph (b) of this Section 6 to the contrary notwithstanding, if an adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after an adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each Shareholder of record entitled to vote thereat.
     Section 7. Voting.
  (a)   At any meeting of Shareholders every Shareholder having the right to vote shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy authorized by an instrument in writing filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting. Except as otherwise provided by law or by the Articles, each Shareholder of record shall be entitled to one vote (on each matter submitted to a vote) for each share of capital stock registered in his or her name on the books of the Corporation.
 
  (b)   All elections of directors and, except as otherwise provided by law or by the Articles, all other matters, shall be determined by a vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and voting on such elections or other matters.
 
  (c)   All voting, including on the election of directors but excepting where otherwise required by law, may be by a voice vote; provided, however, that upon demand therefor by a Shareholder entitled to vote or his or her proxy, a written share vote shall be taken. Every written share vote shall be taken by ballots, each of which shall state the name of the Shareholder or proxy voting and such other information as may be required under the procedure established for the meeting. Every vote taken by ballots shall be counted by an inspector or inspectors appointed by the chairman of the meeting.
     Section 8. Notice of Shareholder Business. At any annual or special meeting of Shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before a meeting, business must be (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board, (b) properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board, or (c) properly brought before an annual meeting by a Shareholder, and if and only if the notice of a special meeting provides for business to be brought before the special meeting by Shareholders, properly brought before the special meeting by a Shareholder. For business to be properly brought before a meeting by a Shareholder, the Shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a Shareholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than 90 days

4


 

prior to the meeting; provided, however, that if less than 100 days’ notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to Shareholders, notice by the Shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. Furthermore, Shareholders are not permitted to nominate individuals to serve as directors, unless notice of such nomination is given to the Corporation in accordance with Section 13 of Article III of these Bylaws. A Shareholder’s notice to the secretary shall set forth as to each matter the Shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting: (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting; (b) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of the Shareholder proposing such business; (c) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the Shareholder; and (d) any material interest of the Shareholder in such business. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at any meeting of Shareholders except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 8 of Article II. The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8, and if he or she should so determine, he or she shall so declare that the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, the Corporation shall be under no obligation to submit for action any Shareholder proposal at any meeting of Shareholders, which proposal the Corporation would otherwise be permitted to omit in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

  (b)   The number of directors of the Corporation shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by the Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time any such resolution is presented to the Board for adoption), but shall not at any time be less than six (6). Subject to the rights of the holders of any class or series of preferred shares of the Corporation then outstanding, the directors shall be classified, with respect to the time for which they severally hold office, into three (3) classes, as nearly equal in number as reasonably possible, with the term of office of the first class to expire initially at the 1991 annual meeting of Shareholders, the term of office of the second class to expire initially at the 1992 annual meeting of Shareholders and the term of office of the third class to expire initially at the 1993 annual meeting of Shareholders, and with the directors of each class to hold office until their successors are duly elected and qualified. At each annual meeting of Shareholders following such classification and election, directors elected to succeed those directors whose terms expire shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of Shareholders after their election.
 
  (c)   Directors need not be Shareholders of the Corporation nor residents of the State of Michigan; provided, however, that each incumbent director whose current term of office expires at either the 2003 or 2004 annual meeting of Shareholders shall be required to become and/or be a Shareholder of the Corporation, beneficially owning at least 1,000 shares of voting capital stock of the Corporation within 120 days after the 2002 annual meeting of Shareholders and continually thereafter, or else automatically forfeit that office resulting in an immediate vacancy; and provided, further, that each non-incumbent director (“New Director”) elected at the 2002 annual meeting of Shareholders or anytime thereafter shall be required to become and/or be a Shareholder of the Corporation, beneficially owning at least the Minimum Requirement (as defined below), within one year after the New Director’s election date and continually thereafter, or else automatically forfeit that office resulting in an immediate vacancy. The term ‘Minimum Requirement’ shall mean the minimum number of shares of voting capital stock of the Corporation as shall be established, from time to time, by the Board pursuant to a resolution adopted for the purposes of the foregoing proviso by a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time any such resolution is presented to the Board for adoption)
 
  (d)   No one shall be eligible to be elected or reelected for a new term of office as a director of the Corporation beginning after such person’s reaching age 70, except that the Board in its sole discretion may by resolution waive

6


 

      this prohibition, case by case, if it expressly determines in such resolution that such waiver is in the best interests of the Corporation.
 
  (e)   At least three of the directors shall be Independent Directors, as that term is defined in the Articles.

     Section 3. Removal; Resignation.
  (a)   Subject to the rights of the holders of any class or series of preferred shares of the Corporation then outstanding, and except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles or these Bylaws, at any meeting of the Shareholders called expressly for such purpose, any director, or the entire Board, may be removed, but only for cause, by a vote of Shareholders holding a majority of the shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at an election of directors, voting together as a single class.
 
  (b)   Any director may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Board, the chairman of the Board, the chief executive officer, or the secretary of the Corporation. Unless a subsequent time is specified in such written notice, a resignation shall take effect upon its receipt by the Corporation.
     Section 4. Place of Meetings. The Board may hold both regular and special meetings either within or outside the State of Michigan, at such place as the Board from time to time deems advisable.
     Section 5. Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of each newly elected Board shall be held as soon as is practicable following the annual meeting of Shareholders, and no notice to the newly elected directors of such meeting shall be necessary for such meeting to be lawful.

     Section 7. Special Meetings.

Any director may waive compensation for any meeting. No director who receives compensation as a director shall be barred from serving the Corporation in any other capacity or from receiving compensation and reimbursement of reasonable expenses for any or all such other services.
     Section 11. Action by Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board or a committee of the Board may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice if a written consent in lieu of such meeting which sets forth the action so taken is signed either before or after such action by all directors or all members of the committee, as the case may be. All written consents shall be filed with the minutes of the Board’s proceedings. A written consent has the same effect as a vote of the Board or committee for all purposes.
     Section 12. Meetings by Telephone or Similar Communications. The directors may participate in meetings by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment, whereby all directors participating in the meeting can hear each other at the same time, and participation in any such meeting shall constitute presence in person by such director at such meeting. A written record shall be made of all actions taken at any meeting conducted by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment.

offices of the Corporation not fewer than 90 days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than 100 days’ notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to Shareholders, notice by the Shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. Each such notice shall set forth: (a) the name and address of the Shareholder who intends to make the nomination and of the person or persons to be nominated; (b) a representation that the Shareholder is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors on the date of such notice and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice; (c) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the Shareholder and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination or nominations are to be made by the Shareholder; (d) such other information regarding each nominee proposed by such Shareholder as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), had the nominee been nominated, or intended to be nominated, by the Board; and (e) the consent of each nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation if so elected.
     In the event that a person is validly designated as a nominee in accordance with this Section 13 and shall thereafter become unable or unwilling to stand for election to the Board, the Board or the Shareholder who proposed such nominee, as the case may be, may designate a substitute nominee upon delivery, not fewer than 10 days prior to the date of the meeting for the election of such nominee, of a written notice to the secretary setting forth such information regarding such substitute nominee as would have been required to be delivered to the secretary pursuant to this Section 13 had such substitute nominee been initially proposed as a nominee. Such notice shall include a signed consent to serve as a director of the Corporation, if elected, of each such substitute nominee.
     If the chairman of the meeting for the election of directors determines that a nomination of any candidate for election as a director at such meeting was not made in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section 13, such nomination shall be void.

1998 Stock Option Plan

(As amended August 26, 2003, and approved by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on November 14, 2003; and as further amended, restated and approved by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on November 5, 2004)
     1. Definitions: As used herein, the following definitions shall apply:
     (a) “Board of Directors” shall mean the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
     (b) “Committee” shall mean the Compensation Committee designated by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or such other committee as shall be specified by the Board of Directors to perform the functions and duties of the Committee under the Plan; provided, however, that the Committee shall comply with the applicable requirements of (i) Rule 16b-3 of the Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and (ii) Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations thereunder.
     (c) “Corporation” shall mean United American Healthcare Corporation, a Michigan corporation, or any successor thereof.
     (d) “Discretion” shall mean the sole discretion of the Committee, with no requirement whatsoever that the Committee follow past practices, act in a manner consistent with past practices, or treat an officer, director or key employee in a manner consistent with the treatment afforded other officers, directors or key employees with respect to the Plan.
     (e) “Incentive Option” shall mean an option to purchase Common Stock of the Corporation which meets the requirements set forth in the Plan and also meets the definition of an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code. The stock option agreement for an Incentive Option shall state that the option is intended to be an Incentive Option.
     (f) “Nonqualified Option” shall mean an option to purchase Common Stock of the Corporation which meets the requirements set forth in the Plan but does not meet the definition of an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code. The stock option agreement for a Nonqualified Option shall state that the option is intended to be a Nonqualified Option.
     (g) “Participant” shall mean any individual designated by the Committee under Paragraph 6 for participation in the Plan.


 

     (h) “Plan” shall mean the United American Healthcare Corporation 1998 Stock Option Plan.
     (i) “Subsidiary” shall mean any corporation or similar entity in which the Corporation owns, directly or indirectly, stock or other equity interest (“Stock”) possessing more than 25% of the combined voting power of all classes of Stock; provided, however, that an Incentive Option may be granted to an employee of a Subsidiary only if the Subsidiary is a corporation and the Corporation owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of Stock of the Subsidiary.
     2. Purpose of Plan: The purpose of the Plan is to provide officers, directors and key employees of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries with an increased incentive to make significant and extraordinary contributions to the long-term performance and growth of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, to join the interests of officers, directors and key employees with the interests of the shareholders of the Corporation, and to facilitate attracting and retaining officers, directors and key employees of exceptional ability.
     3. Administration: The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall determine, from those eligible to be Participants under the Plan, the persons to be granted stock options, the amount of stock to be optioned to each such person, and the terms and conditions of any stock options. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee is authorized to interpret the Plan, to make, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the Plan’s administration. Interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan by the Committee shall, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, be final and conclusive. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum, and the acts approved by a majority of the members of the Committee present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, or acts approved in writing by a majority of the Committee, shall be the acts of the Committee.
     4. Indemnification of Committee Members: In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have, the members of the Committee shall be indemnified by the Corporation in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding relating to any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan or any option granted hereunder to the full extent provided for under the Corporation’s Bylaws with respect to indemnification of directors of the Corporation.
     5. Maximum Number of Shares Subject to Plan: The maximum number of shares with respect to which stock options may be granted under the Plan shall be 1,500,000 shares in the aggregate of Common Stock of the Corporation. If a stock option expires or terminates for any reason without having been fully exercised, the number of shares with respect to which the stock option was not exercised at the time of its expiration or termination shall again become available for the grant of stock options under the Plan, unless the Plan shall have been terminated.

-2-


 

     Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, no officer, director or employee of the Corporation or a Subsidiary may receive options for more than 300,000 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation over the term of the Plan, as provided in Paragraph 22. For purposes of this 300,000 share per-Participant limitation, there shall be taken into account all shares covered by stock options granted to an individual regardless of whether such stock options expire or terminate without being fully exercised.
     The number of shares subject to each outstanding stock option, the option price with respect to outstanding stock options, the aggregate number of shares remaining available under the Plan and the 300,000 share per-Participant limitation shall be subject to such adjustment as the Committee, in its Discretion, deems appropriate to reflect such events as stock dividends, stock splits, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations or reorganizations of or by the Corporation; provided, however, that no fractional shares shall be issued pursuant to the Plan, no rights may be granted under the Plan with respect to fractional shares, and any fractional shares resulting from such adjustments shall be eliminated from any outstanding stock option.
     6. Participants: The Committee shall determine and designate from time to time, in its Discretion, those officers, directors and key employees of the Corporation or any Subsidiary to receive stock options who, in the judgment of the Committee, are or will become responsible for the direction and financial success of the Corporation or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that Incentive Options may be granted to officers, directors and key employees of a Subsidiary only if (i) the Corporation owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of Stock of the Subsidiary and (ii) the Subsidiary is a corporation.
     7. Written Agreement: Each stock option shall be evidenced by a written agreement (each a “Corporation-Participant Agreement”) containing such provisions as may be approved by the Committee. Each such Corporation-Participant Agreement shall constitute a binding contract between the Corporation and the Participant and every Participant, upon acceptance of such Agreement, shall be bound by the terms and restrictions of the Plan and of such Agreement. The terms of each such Corporation-Participant Agreement shall be in accordance with the Plan, but each Agreement may include such additional provisions and restrictions determined by the Committee, in its Discretion, provided that such additional provisions and restrictions are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan.
     8. Allotment of Shares: The Committee shall determine and fix, in its Discretion, the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which a Participant may be granted stock options under the Plan; provided, however, that no Incentive Option may be granted under the Plan to any one Participant which would result in the aggregate fair market value, determined as of the date the option is granted, of underlying stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by such Participant during any calendar year under any plan maintained by the Corporation (or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Corporation) exceeding $100,000.
     9. Stock Options: Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee, in its Discretion, may grant to Participants either Incentive Options or Nonqualified Options or any combination thereof; provided, that directors of the Corporation or a Subsidiary who are not employees of the Corporation or Subsidiary shall be eligible for only Nonqualified Options. Each option granted

-3-


 

under the Plan shall designate the number of shares covered thereby, if any, with respect to which the option is an Incentive Option, and the number of shares covered thereby, if any, with respect to which the option is a Nonqualified Option.
     10. Stock Option Price: Subject to the rules set forth in this Paragraph 10, at the time any stock option is granted, the Committee, in its Discretion, shall establish the price per share for which the shares covered by the option may be purchased. With respect to an Incentive Option, such option price shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the date on which such option is granted; provided, however, that with respect to an Incentive Option granted to an employee who at the time of the grant owns (after applying the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting stock of the Corporation or of any parent or subsidiary, the option price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the stock on the date such option is granted. With respect to a Nonqualified Option, the option price shall not be less than 75% of the fair market value of the stock on the date upon which such option is granted. Fair market value of a share shall be determined by the Committee and may be determined by taking the mean between the highest and lowest quoted selling prices of the Corporation’s Common Stock on any exchange or other market on which the shares of Common Stock of the Corporation shall be traded on such date, or if there are no sales on such date, on the next following day on which there are sales. The option price shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 5.
     11. Payment of Stock Option Price: To exercise in whole or in part any stock option granted hereunder, payment of the option price in full in cash shall be made by the Participant for all shares so purchased. In the Discretion of and subject to such conditions as may be established by the Committee, payment of the option price may also be made by the Corporation retaining from the shares to be delivered upon exercise of the stock option that number of shares having a fair market value on the date of exercise equal to the option price of the number of shares with respect to which the Participant exercises the stock option. Such payment may also be made in such other manner as the Committee determines is appropriate, in its Discretion. No Participant shall have any of the rights of a shareholder of the Corporation under any stock option until the actual issuance of shares to such Participant, and prior to such issuance no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights in respect of such shares, except as provided in Paragraph 5.
     12. Granting and Exercising of Stock Options: Subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 12, each stock option granted hereunder shall be exercisable at any such time or times or in any such installments as may be determined by the Committee at the time of the grant; provided, however, that no stock option may be exercisable prior to the expiration of six months from the date of grant unless the Participant dies or becomes disabled prior thereto. In addition, the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the option is granted) of the Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000.
     A Participant may exercise a stock option, if then exercisable, in whole or in part by delivery to the Corporation of written notice of the exercise, in such form as the Committee may prescribe, accompanied (i) by payment for the shares with respect to which the stock option is exercised in accordance with Paragraph 11, or (ii) in the Discretion of the Committee,

-4-


 

irrevocable instructions to a stock broker to promptly deliver to the Corporation full payment for the shares with respect to which the stock option is exercised from the proceeds of the stock broker’s sale of or loan against the shares. Except as provided in Paragraph 16, stock options granted to a Participant may be exercised only while the Participant is an officer, director or employee of the Corporation or a Subsidiary.
     Successive stock options may be granted to the same Participant, whether or not the stock option(s) previously granted to such Participant remain unexercised. A Participant may exercise a stock option, if then exercisable, notwithstanding that stock options previously granted to such Participant remain unexercised.
     13. Non-transferability of Stock Options: No stock option granted under the Plan to a Participant shall be transferable by such Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and stock options shall be exercisable, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant.
     14. Term of Stock Options: If not sooner terminated, each stock option granted hereunder shall expire not more than ten (10) years from the date of the granting thereof; provided, however, that with respect to an Incentive Option granted to a Participant who, at the time of the grant, owns (after applying the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting stock of all classes of stock of the Corporation or of any parent or subsidiary, such option shall expire not more than five (5) years after the date of the granting thereof.
     15. Continuation of Employment: The Committee may require, in its Discretion, that any Participant under the Plan to whom a stock option shall be granted shall agree in writing as a condition of the granting of such stock option to remain in the employ of the Corporation or a Subsidiary for a designated minimum period from the date of the granting of such stock option as shall be fixed by the Committee.
     16. Termination of Employment: If the employment of a Participant by the Corporation or a Subsidiary shall terminate, the Committee may, in its Discretion, permit the exercise of Incentive Options granted to such Participant (i) for a period not to exceed three months following termination of employment if termination of employment is not due to death or permanent disability of the Participant, and (ii) for a period not to exceed one year following termination of employment if termination of employment is due to the death or permanent disability of the Participant. With respect to Nonqualified Options, the Committee may, in its Discretion, permit the exercise of such stock options granted to a director of the Corporation or a Subsidiary who ceases to be such a director (regardless of whether he or she is or was also an officer or director of the Corporation or Subsidiary) for a period not to extend beyond the expiration date of the Nonqualified Options. In no event, however, shall a stock option be exercisable subsequent to its expiration date and, furthermore, unless the Committee in its Discretion determines otherwise, a stock option may only be exercised after termination of a Participant’s employment, or of a Participant’s status as a non-employee director, to the extent exercisable on the date of termination of such employment or status or to the extent exercisable as a result of the reason for termination of such employment or status. The period of time, if any, a Participant shall have to exercise stock options upon termination of employment, or of status as

-5-


 

a non-employee director, shall be set forth in the Corporation-Participant Agreement, subject to extension of such time period by the Committee in its Discretion.
     17. Investment Purpose: If the Committee in its Discretion determines that as a matter of law such procedure is or may be desirable, it may require a Participant, upon any acquisition of Common Stock hereunder by reason of the exercise of stock options, and as a condition to the Corporation’s obligation to issue or deliver certificates representing such shares, to execute and deliver to the Corporation a written statement, in form satisfactory to the Committee, representing and warranting that the Participant’s acquisition of shares of stock shall be for such person’s own account, for investment and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof and that any subsequent offer for sale or sale of any such shares shall be made either pursuant to (a) a registration statement on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which registration statement has become effective and is current with respect to the shares being offered and sold, or (b) a specific exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, but in claiming such exemption the Participant shall, prior to any offer for sale or sale of such shares, obtain a favorable written opinion from counsel for or approved by the Corporation as to the availability of such exemption. The Corporation may endorse an appropriate legend referring to the foregoing restriction upon the certificate or certificates representing any shares issued or transferred to a Participant under the Plan.
     18. Rights to Continued Employment: Nothing contained in the Plan or in any stock option granted pursuant to the Plan, nor any action taken by the Committee hereunder, shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Corporation or a Subsidiary nor interfere in any way with the right of the Corporation or a Subsidiary to terminate such person’s employment at any time.
     19. Withholding Payments: If upon the exercise of a Nonqualified Option, or upon a disqualifying disposition (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) of shares acquired upon exercise of an Incentive Option, there shall be payable by the Corporation or a Subsidiary any amount for income tax withholding, in the Committee’s Discretion, either the Corporation shall appropriately reduce the amount of Common Stock or cash to be delivered or paid to the Participant or the Participant shall pay such amount to the Corporation or Subsidiary to reimburse it for such income tax withholding. The Committee may, in its Discretion, permit Participants to satisfy such withholding obligations, in whole or in part, by electing to have the amount of Common Stock delivered or deliverable by the Corporation upon exercise of a stock option appropriately reduced, or by electing to tender Common Stock back to the Corporation subsequent to exercise of a stock option, to reimburse the Corporation or a Subsidiary for such income tax withholding (any such election being irrevocable), subject to such rules and regulations as the Committee may adopt, including such rules as it determines appropriate with respect to Participants subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934 to effect such tax withholding in compliance with the Rules established by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under Section 16 to the Exchange Act and the positions of the staff of the Commission thereunder expressed in no-action letters exempting such tax withholding from liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. The Committee may make such other arrangements with respect to income tax withholding as it shall determine.

-6-


 

     20. Effectiveness of Plan: The Plan shall be effective on the date the Board of Directors of the Corporation adopts the Plan, provided that the shareholders of the Corporation approve the Plan within 12 months of its adoption by the Board of Directors. Stock options may be granted prior to shareholder approval of the Plan, but each such stock option grant shall be subject to shareholder approval of the Plan. No stock option may be exercised prior to shareholder approval.
     21. Termination, Duration and Amendments of Plan: The Plan may be abandoned or terminated at any time by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the date fifteen (15) years after its adoption by the Board of Directors, and no stock options may be granted thereafter. The termination of the Plan shall not affect the validity of any stock option outstanding on the date of termination.
     For the purpose of conforming to any changes in applicable law or governmental regulations, or for any other lawful purpose, the Board of Directors shall have the right, with or without approval of the shareholders of the Corporation, to amend or revise the terms of the Plan at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment or revision shall (i) without approval or ratification of the shareholders of the Corporation (A) increase the maximum number of shares in the aggregate which are subject to the Plan (subject, however, to the provisions of Paragraph 5), (B) increase the maximum number of shares for which any Participant may be granted stock options under the Plan (except as contemplated by Paragraph 5), (C) change the class of persons eligible to be Participants under the Plan, or (D) materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan, or (ii) without the consent of the holder thereof, change the stock option price (except as contemplated by Paragraph 5) or alter or impair any stock option which shall have been previously granted under the Plan.
      Originally adopted by the Board of Directors on August 6, 1998 and approved by the Shareholders of the Corporation on November 12, 1998.
 
      With amendments approved by the Board of Directors on August 26, 2003, and approved by the Shareholders of the Corporation on November 14, 2003.
 
      And with a further amendment approved by the Shareholders of the Corporation and by the Board of Directors on November 5, 2004.
