forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as
follows:
1. Employment. The Company hereby employs Executive and Executive hereby
accepts such employment upon the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement.
2. Duties of Executive. Executive's title will be Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer of Medaphis Corporation and
Executive will report directly to the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company. Executive agrees to perform and discharge such other duties
as may be assigned to Executive from time to time by the Company to
the reasonable satisfaction of the Company, and such duties will be
consistent with those duties regularly and customarily assigned by the

comply with all of the Company's policies, standards and regulations
as promulgated by the officers of the Company, and to follow the
instructions and directives of the Board of Directors, the Chairman
and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Executive will devote
Executive's full professional and business-related time, skills and
best efforts to such duties and will not, during the term of this
Agreement, be engaged (whether or not during normal business hours) in
any other business or professional activity, whether or not such
activity is pursued for gain, profit or other pecuniary advantage,
without the prior written consent of the Chairman of the Company,
which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. This Section will not
be construed to prevent Executive from (a) investing personal assets
in businesses which do not compete with the Company in such form or
manner that will not require any services on the part of Executive in
the operation or the affairs of the companies in which such
investments are made and in which Executive's participation is solely
that of an investor; (b) purchasing securities in any corporation
whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange or
regularly traded in the over-the-counter market, provided that
Executive at no time owns, directly or indirectly, in excess of one
percent (1%) of the outstanding stock of any class of any such
corporation engaged in a business competitive with that of the
Company; or (c) participating in conferences, preparing and publishing
papers or books or teaching, so long as the Chief Executive Officer of
the

Company approves such participation, preparation and publication or
teaching prior to Executive's engaging therein.
3. Term. The term of this Agreement will be for a three (3) year period
of time, commencing as of January 25th, 1998 and expiring on
January 25th, 2001, subject to earlier termination as provided for in
Section 4 of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be automatically
renewed for successive one (1) year periods at the end of the initial
three-year term, unless either party gives notice to the other of its
intent to terminate this Agreement not less than sixty (60) days prior
to commencement of any such one-year renewal period. In the event such
notice to terminate is properly and timely given, this Agreement shall
terminate at the end of the initial term or the one-year renewal
period in which such notice is given.
4. Termination.
(a) Termination by Company for Cause. Notwithstanding anything
contained in Section 3 to the contrary, the Company may terminate this
Agreement and all of its obligations hereunder immediately if any of
the following events occur:
(i) Executive materially breaches any of the terms or
conditions set forth in this Agreement and fails to cure such
breach within ten (10) days after Executive's receipt from
the Company of written notice of such breach (notwithstanding
the foregoing, no cure period shall be applicable to breaches
by Executive of Sections 6, 7 or 8 of this Agreement);
(ii) Executive commits any other act materially detrimental
to the business or reputation of the Company;
(iii) Executive commits or is convicted of any crime
involving fraud, deceit or moral turpitude; or
(iv) Executive dies or becomes mentally or physically
incapacitated or disabled so as to be unable to perform
Executive's duties under this Agreement. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Executive's inability adequately
to perform services under this Agreement for a period of
sixty (60) consecutive days will be conclusive evidence of
such mental or physical incapacity or disability, unless such
inability adequately to perform services under this Agreement
is pursuant to a mental or physical incapacity or disability
covered by the Family Medical Leave Act, in which
3
4
case such sixty (60)-day period shall be extended to a one
hundred and twenty (120)-day period.
(b) Termination by Company Without Cause. Notwithstanding anything
contained in Section 3 to the contrary, the Company may terminate
Executive's employment pursuant to this Agreement without cause upon
at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Executive. In the
event Executive's employment with the Company is terminated by the
Company without cause, Executive shall be entitled to elect a
severance consideration equal to (i) two (2) years of salary and
benefit continuation (this severance consideration does not include
the right to receive any incentive bonus payments) at Executive's then
current salary and benefit levels, or (ii) Executive's then-current
monthly salary (this severance consideration does not include the
right to receive any incentive bonus payments) multiplied by the
number of months remaining in the initial term of this Agreement.
(c) Termination by Executive With Good Reason. Except as set forth in
Paragraph (d) below, in the event Executive elects to voluntarily
terminate his employment following the occurrence of events
constituting "Good Reason" for his voluntary termination of
employment, Executive will be entitled to elect a severance
consideration equal to (i) two (2) years of salary and benefit
continuation (this severance consideration does not include the right
to receive any incentive bonus payments) at Executive's then current
salary and benefit levels, or (ii) Executive's then-current monthly
salary (this severance consideration does not include the right to
receive any incentive bonus payments) multiplied by the number of
months remaining in the initial term of this Agreement. For purposes
of this Agreement, "Good Reason" is defined as (w) a material
reduction (greater than 10%) in Executive's annual base salary; (x) a
change in Executive's work location to a work location more than 50
miles from Executive's existing work location, except for required
travel on the Company's business to an extent consistent with
Executive's then present business travel obligations; (y) an
assignment to any duties inconsistent in any material adverse respect
with Executive's current position, duties or responsibilities, other
than an insubstantial and inadvertent act that is remedied by the
Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by Executive;
or (z) the failure by the Company to continue any material benefit or
compensation plan in which Executive is participating unless Executive
is provided with comparable benefits.
(d) Change in Control. In the event there is a Change in Control (as
defined herein) of Medaphis Corporation, Executive will be entitled to
receive a severance payment equal to two (2) years of salary and
benefits (including any bonus
4

payment to which Executive would be entitled which will be calculated
by doubling the incentive bonus payment received by Executive during
the year immediately prior to the Change in Control), if (A)
Executive's employment is terminated by the Company without cause
within one (1) year following any such Change in Control; (B) if
Executive's employment is terminated by the Company at the request of
or pursuant to an agreement with a third party who has taken steps
reasonably calculated to effect a Change in Control; (C) if
Executive's employment is terminated by the Company in connection with
or in anticipation of a Change in Control; (D) if Executive
voluntarily terminates his employment for Good Reason (as defined
above in Paragraph (c)) within one (1) year following any such Change
in Control; or (E) if Executive voluntarily terminates his employment
for Good Reason within one (1) year following any action taken by the
Company at the request of or pursuant to an agreement with a third
party who has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change in
Control or any action taken by the Company in connection with or in
anticipation of a Change in Control, in each case which action
constitutes Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in
Control" of Medaphis Corporation shall be deemed to occur upon any of
the following:
(i) a consolidation or merger of Medaphis Corporation with
or into any other corporation, or any other entity or person,
other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of Medaphis Corporation,
excluding any transaction in which the shares of the
Company's common stock outstanding immediately prior to any
such consolidation or merger represents immediately
thereafter more than 50% of the combined voting power of the
resulting entity after the transaction;
(ii) any corporate reorganization, including an exchange
offer, in which Medaphis Corporation shall not be the

more than 50% of the combined voting power of the resulting
entity after the transaction; or

constitute the Incumbent Board to continue to constitute at
least a majority of the Board. For purposes of this Section 4
(d), the term "Board" shall mean the Board of Directors of
the Company and the term "Incumbent Board" shall mean the
members of the Board as of the date hereof and any person
becoming a
5

member of the Board hereafter whose election or nomination is

comprising the Incumbent Board (other than an election or
nomination of an individual whose initial assumption of
office is in connection with an actual or threatened election
contest relating to the election of the directors of the

14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended).
5. Compensation and Benefits.
a) Annual Salary. During the term of this Agreement and for all
services rendered by Executive under this Agreement, the Company will
pay Executive a base salary of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars

annual salary will be subject to adjustments in the normal course of
business.
b) Incentive Compensation. Executive shall be eligible to participate
in the 1998 Medaphis Corporation and its Subsidiary Corporations

the Stock Option Plan. Executive shall be considered for additional
grants of options to purchase shares of Medaphis common stock in a
manner which is consistent with other senior officers of the Company.

Company, to eliminate any ambiguity as to the ownership of, and rights
of the Company to, such Inventions, including filing copyright and
patent registrations and defending and enforcing in litigation or
otherwise all such rights.
Executive will not be obligated to assign to the Company any Invention
made by Executive while in the Company's employ which does not relate
to any business or activity in which the Company is or may reasonably
be expected to become engaged, except that Executive is so obligated
if the same relates to or is based on Proprietary Information to which
Executive will have had access during and by virtue of Executive's
employment or which arises out of work assigned to Executive by the
Company. Executive will not be obligated to assign any Invention which
may be wholly conceived by Executive after Executive leaves the employ
of the Company, except that Executive is so obligated if such
Invention involves the utilization of Proprietary Information obtained
while in the employ of the Company. Executive is not obligated to
assign any Invention which relates to or would be useful in any
business or activities in which the Company is engaged if such
Invention was conceived and reduced to practice by Executive prior to
Executive's employment with the Company.
12. Remedies. Executive agrees and acknowledges that the violation of any
of the covenants or agreements contained in Sections 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
and 11 of this Agreement would cause irreparable injury to the
Company, that the remedy at law for any such violation or threatened
violation thereof would be inadequate, and that the Company will be
entitled, in addition to any other remedy, to temporary and permanent
injunctive or other equitable relief without the necessity of proving
