in part (by operation of law or otherwise), by any party without the prior written consent of the
other parties hereto. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit

parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies,
obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in such Person’s capacity as such a director
or officer, nor shall any action taken by any such director or officer in his or her capacity as
such be deemed a breach by the Stockholder of this Agreement.

extent that the undersigned is entitled to do so) with respect to all of the shares of capital
stock of the Company that now are or hereafter may be beneficially owned by the undersigned, and
any and all other shares or securities of the Company issued or issuable in respect thereof on or
after the date hereof (collectively, the “Covered Shares”), in accordance with the terms of
this Proxy. The Covered Shares beneficially owned by the Stockholder as of the date of this Proxy
are listed on Schedule I to this Proxy. Upon the Stockholder’s execution of this Proxy, any and
all prior proxies given by the undersigned with respect to any Covered Shares are hereby revoked
and terminated, and the Stockholder agrees not to grant any subsequent proxies with respect to the
Covered Shares, with respect to any of the matters referred to in any of clauses (a) through (c)
below until after the Expiration Time (as defined below).
This Proxy is irrevocable (to the fullest extent permitted by law), is coupled with an
interest and is granted pursuant to that certain Voting Agreement of even date herewith (the
“Voting Agreement”) by and among Health Systems Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation
(“Parent”), HSS Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent
(“Merger Sub”), and the undersigned Stockholder, and is granted in consideration of Parent entering
into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger of even date herewith (as it may hereafter be
amended from time to time in accordance with the provisions thereof, the “Merger
Agreement”) by and among Parent, Merger Sub and the Company. The Merger Agreement provides
that Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”) and the Stockholder
will be entitled to receive the merger consideration specified therein. The term “Expiration
Time”, as used in this Proxy, shall mean the earliest to occur of the events specified in
Section 5.1 of the Voting Agreement.
The attorneys and proxies named above, and each of them, are hereby authorized and empowered
by the Stockholder, at any time prior to the Expiration Time, to act as the Stockholder’s attorney
and proxy to vote all of the Covered Shares, and to exercise all voting, consent and similar rights
of the undersigned with respect to all of the Covered Shares (including, without limitation, the
power to execute and deliver written consents) at every annual or special meeting of stockholders
of the Company (and at every adjournment or postponement thereof), and in every written consent in
lieu of such meeting:
(a) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and any related proposal in furtherance
thereof, as reasonably requested by Parent, submitted for the vote, written consent or approval of
the Company’s stockholders;
(b) against any action, proposal or agreement submitted for the vote, written consent or
approval of the Company’s stockholders that is in opposition to, or to the Stockholder’s knowledge

the Stockholder’s knowledge (based upon the advice of counsel) would result in a breach of any
covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company contained
in the Merger Agreement, or of the Stockholder contained in the Voting Agreement; and
(c) against any Takeover Proposal and against any other action, agreement or transaction
submitted for the vote, written consent or approval of stockholders that the Stockholder knows

affect the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the Voting
Agreement or the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Merger Agreement or by the
Stockholder of its obligations under the Voting Agreement.
Any term or provision of this Proxy that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any
jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions
hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation
or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares
that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Stockholder agrees that the
court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete
specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term
or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of
the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Proxy shall be enforceable as so modified.
In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the
Stockholder agrees to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and
enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and
