Business Company Overview Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation (the "Company" or "LIPH") is a New York corporation formed in 1994 and owned by physicians residing and practicing in New York State. The Company conducts no operating activities of its own. The Company's principal asset is 67% of the stock in MDNY Healthcare, Inc. ("MDNY"), an independent practice association-model health maintenance organization ("HMO"), that currently operates in Nassau and Suffolk counties, New York. The financial statements of MDNY are consolidated into the audited financial statements of the Company. Catholic Healthcare Network of Long Island, Inc. ("CHNLI") owns the remaining 33% of the stock in MDNY. MDNY commenced operations in 1996.. At December 31, 2005, MDNY had 32,078 continuing members, comprised of individuals and families, enrolled in its health maintenance plans and point-of-service plans The Company is affiliated with LIPH, LLC (the "LLC"), a New York limited liability company formed in December 1996. Upon the formation of the LLC, the shareholders of the Company owned all of the membership interests in the LLC. The assets of the LLC consist of the stock in three independent practice associations, Island Practice Association, IPA, Inc. ("Island IPA"), Island Behavioral Health Association IPA, Inc. (currently inactive) and Island Dental Professional Association IPA, Inc. (the "IPAs"). MDNY has entered into various contractual arrangements (the "Professional Services Agreements") with the IPAs to arrange for the provision of applicable health care and administrative services to the members of MDNY. Business Strategy The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company reported a $4.6 million loss in 2005; has a substantial working capital deficit, has a negative net worth, has incurred cumulative losses since inception, and has experienced a continued decline in enrollment. Furthermore, the Company has utilized substantially all of the cash raised in its initial equity infusion in funding its operations and currently does not meet its New York State contingent reserve funding requirement. The Diocese of Rockville Centre ("Diocese") allowed its subscriber contract with MDNY to expire on December 31, 2004, resulting in the loss of approximate 3,500 members. Catholic Health Services of Long Island, Inc. ("CHSLI"), an affiliate of CHNLI, on behalf of five catholic hospitals that act as providers to MDNY (the "Hospitals"), did not renew the respective Hospital subscriber contracts with MDNY upon expiration thereof on January 1, 2006, resulting in the loss of approximately 6,000 members. Effective January 1, 2005 MDNY entered into a new agreement with a financial advisor to pursue investors to recapitalize MDNY. MDNY has been in negotiations with various equity investors to implement the following plans to improve liquidity and restore profitability to MDNY. These transactions are summarized below: o With additional capital, MDNY would apply for an Article 42 (Accident and Health Company) license which would allow MDNY to develop new products and benefit plan designs with higher co-pays and deductibles to be marketed to its customers. MDNY's competitors currently market these products to their customers. o Achieve administrative savings by consolidating certain administrative functions including information system platforms. o Management has initiated reductions in operating and medical expenses primarily related to staffing, negotiation of certain specialty carve out contracts, and renegotiating existing provider contracts. o Effective January 1, 2006 Island IPA has agreed to increase the amount of withhold to approximately 10% in an effort to accelerate payment of its outstanding debt due MDNY as requested by the New York State Insurance Department ("NYSID") See "Recent Developments" and "Certain Regulatory Matters.". While management believes that implementation of these plans would, together with additional investment capital, achieve profitability and adequate statutory capital, there is no assurance that any equity investment will be completed on terms acceptable to MDNY, its shareholders, or NYSID, if at all. 1 Going Concern Qualification The consolidated financial statements of the Company and of MDNY as of December 31, 2005 and for the year then ended have been prepared assuming that the Company and MDNY will each continue as a going concern. Recent Developments On September 16, 2005, NYSID advised MDNY that NYSID had determined that MDNY should have reported approximately $17.6 million of payments in excess of capitation ("Island Debt") as a non-admitted asset, and that the resulting reduction in net worth resulted in MDNY having an insolvency in the amount of $12,666,791 as of June 30, 2005. NYSID directed MDNY to make every effort to collect, in cash, the outstanding amount of the Island Debt as soon as possible but no later than December 31, 2005 and requested that MDNY provide a plan, by September 30, 2005, detailing the steps MDNY would take to collect the outstanding balance. In November 2005 NYSID reiterated its position that the Island Debt should be not be reflected as an admitted asset but extended the payment due date to June 30, 2006. MDNY believes that NYSID's letter of September 16, 2005 contradicts NYSID's letter of March 20, 2002, in which NYSID approved a recovery plan proposed by MDNY that, among other things, provided for MDNY to reflect in its financial statements an admitted asset, "Payments in Excess of Capitation," as well as an offsetting liability "Unpaid Capitation." MDNY continued to withhold 5% of the IPA provider claims in repayment of Island Debt in 2005 In response to NYSID's concerns, Island IPA agreed to increase the withhold percentage to 10% effective January 1, 2006. See "Certain Regulatory Matters." In a letter dated May 8, 2006, NYSID reiterated its position that the Island Debt should be reported as a non-admitted asset and further directed MDNY to file amended statutory reports reflecting this revision. The revised negative statutory net worth at December 31, 2005 was $14,376,000. MDNY is in the process of filing amended annual reports for the year ended December 31, 2005. In 2006 Island IPA continues to repay the Island Debt at a withhold rate of 10% of claim payments. As of December 31, 2005, the Company's financial statements reflect a reserve against payments in excess of Capitation ("Capitation Receivable") of $3,000,000 which represents the difference between the$17 million owed from Island IPA at December 31, 2005 and the estimated amount of IPA claims payable by MDNY to Island IPA outstanding at December 31, 2005 of $14 million. $3 million represents the estimated amount of the Island Debt that would be deemed uncollectible due to the shortfall in outstanding IPA claims at December 31, 2005. The amount owed from Island IPA is reflected as Payments in Excess of Capitation on the balance sheets of MDNY and the Company as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 respectively. MDNY is currently in discussions with a potential investor who, in connection with a proposed investment in MDNY, is working with MDNY, Island IPA and NYSID to, among other things, determine the ultimate "approved" financial status of the Island Debt. There can be no assurance that the parties will be able to complete an agreement on terms acceptable to MDNY, its shareholders, the investor, or NYSID. 2 Potential Obligations with Respect to New York Market Stabilization Pools MDNY is subject to certain state-regulated risk allocation pools ("Stabilization Pools") created by NYSID. The Stabilization Pools are designed to encourage insurers to remain in or enter the small group and individual health insurance markets and protect all insurers and health maintenance organizations ("HMO") in those markets from extreme losses due to open enrollment of persons for coverage who are very ill or have a history of poor health. Under NYSID Regulation 146, as amended ("Regulation 146"), certain insurers and HMOs participating in those markets in New York State are required either to make payments to or receive payments from the Stabilization Pools based upon criteria stated in Regulation 146. On July 13, 2005, NYSID notified MDNY as follows: "Due to the financially impaired status of MDNY at this time, the Insurance Department is not imposing any liability on MDNY for payments to the SMC Pools under the Fourth Amendment to Regulation 146 [citation omitted] for years 1999 through 2004 other than the deposits for estimated SMC contributions previously remitted by MDNY for 1999 and 2000. However, please be advised that the Insurance Department will continue to evaluate MDNY's financial condition and its impact on any liabilities under the pools for 2005, and for future years." The effect of the July 13 notice is to relieve MDNY from liability under Regulation 146 with respect to 1999 through 2004, to forfeit deposits of $318,625 and $300,000 made by MDNY with respect to 1999 and 1998, and to leave open the possibility of liability under Regulation 146 with respect to 2005 and subsequent years. The amount of liability, if any, with respect to 2005 and subsequent years cannot be estimated. There can be no assurance that NYSID will determine that MDNY does not have significant payment obligations to the Stabilization Pools with respect to 2005 and subsequent years. Any definitive determination by NYSID that MDNY has significant payment obligations with respect to the Stabilization Pools for such years would have a material adverse effect on the business and financial condition and operations of MDNY and the Company. The NYSID has not issued a new or revised Regulation 146 with respect to 2005. Therefore, as of December 31, 2005 MDNY has not recorded any impact related to the stabilization pools. Stock Purchase Agreement among LIPH, CHNLI and MDNY MDNY is subject to the New York Women's Health and Wellness Act, which, as of January 1, 2003, obligates MDNY to provide contraceptive drugs and devices to its members, in conflict with the ethical policies of the Diocese, to which CHNLI and CHSLI are subject. In light of this conflict, the Diocese allowed its subscriber contract with MDNY to expire on December 31, 2004 resulting in the loss of approximately 3,800 members. CHSLI, on behalf of the Hospitals, did not renew the respective Hospital subscriber contracts with MDNY upon expiration thereof on January 1, 2006. At December 31, 2005, a total of approximately 6,000 members in MDNY were enrolled from CHSLI. Premiums from the Hospitals represented approximately 20% for 2005 and premiums from the Hospitals and the Diocese represented 28% of total premiums earned by MDNY during 2004. The expiration of MDNY's subscriber contracts with the Hospitals on January 1, 2006 and the resulting loss of business have a material adverse effect on MDNY's business and financial condition. The Company, MDNY and CHNLI entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of December 31, 2004 so as to allow CHNLI to exit as an MDNY shareholder. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, LIPH will purchase from CHNLI all shares of Class B common stock of MDNY owned by CHNLI, and CHNLI will contribute to the capital of MDNY, and for cancellation, a Subordinated Note dated December 18, 1997 made by MDNY in favor of CHNLI in the original principal amount of $1.4 million, together with all interest accrued thereon (the "Section 1307 Contribution"). Upon the closing of such purchase, LIPH will be the sole stockholder of MDNY. In consideration of the sale, assignment and transfer of the Class B Shares and of the Section 1307 Contribution, LIPH will pay CHNLI a closing payment of $10.00. As additional consideration, LIPH will pay to CHNLI the percentage specified below of the net amount of cash and the fair market value of all securities and other property paid by an acquiror and received by LIPH in respect of its equity interest in MDNY upon any sale to a third party by LIPH of its stock in MDNY or of all or substantially all of MDNY's business (through a sale of stock or assets, or a merger, consolidation or similar transaction) that is consummated prior to December 31 of the year specified below (or with respect to calendar year 2008, certain transactions consummated after December 31, 2008), but not to exceed $4.5 million in the aggregate (the amount of CHNLI's equity investment in MDNY): 3 Percentage of Sale Proceeds Year --------------------------- ----------- 33.3% 2005 25.0% 2006 20.0% 2007 15.0% 2008 Conditions to closing under the Stock Purchase Agreement include: (i) the termination of the Shareholders Agreement and the Stock Subscription and Purchase Agreement, each dated as of October 11, 1995, between LIPH, MDNY and CHNLI, as amended, (ii) execution and delivery of mutual releases by CHNLI, the Diocese and CHSLI, on the one hand, and MDNY and LIPH, on the other hand, from all claims arising through the closing date, except for claims arising under the Agreement and certain other agreements in effect among the releasing parties as of the closing date, (iii) resignation of the four MDNY directors designated by CHNLI, as directors and officers of MDNY, (iv) payment in full of all premiums then payable under the MDNY Group Applications effective as of December 31, 2002 between MDNY and each of the Diocese and CHSLI, as agent for the Hospitals; (v) no premiums under such Group Applications being more than 30 days past due; (vi) execution and delivery of an agreement whereby the Hospitals and certain related Catholic nursing homes agree to pay the same penalties and interest on past due premiums and other amounts payable by them to MDNY as those applicable under current regulations to late payments due from MDNY to the Hospitals; (viii) consent by each of NYSID (which granted consent in March 2005), the New York State Department of Health ("NYSDOH") (which was granted in August 2005), the Attorney General of the State of New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York to the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; and (ix) payment in full of all payments due and owing by MDNY to the Hospitals for services rendered to the extent required by the provider agreements between MDNY and the Hospitals, and no such payments, with respect to clean claims, being more than 45 days past due. Upon closing of the purchase of the Class B shares, the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of MDNY and the composition of MDNY's Board of Directors will be modified to reflect, among other things, that CHNLI is no longer a shareholder in MDNY and the composition and number of MDNY's Directors will be changed to include the requisite number of enrollee representatives. The Stock Purchase Agreement remains subject to approval by the Attorney General of the State of New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York. If such approval is granted, it is anticipated that the closing under the Stock Purchase Agreement would occur concurrently with and be contingent on the closing of an investment in and restructuring of MDNY, and would require the renegotiation of certain closing conditions under the Stock Purchase Agreement. Certain Regulatory Matters Recovery and Subordination Agreement With NYSID's approval, MDNY, Island IPA, and CHSLI, on behalf of the Hospitals, entered into a Recovery and Subordination Agreement (the "Recovery and Subordination Agreement"), dated July 12, 2001 and effective January 1, 2002. The Recovery and Subordination Agreement provides, among other things, as follows: (i) Island IPA is required to pay the Island Debt pursuant to a Repayment Plan whereby Island IPA is obligated to withhold, and remit to MDNY, 5% of all payments due to Island IPA participating providers (the "IPA Withhold"), MDNY will make claims payments to Island IPA or its participating providers on a fee-for-service basis, MDNY is required to pay Island IPA a $1.50 per member per month network access fee, and Island IPA is required to pay to MDNY the net revenue it receives from sources other than MDNY; (ii) until the Island Debt is repaid, Island IPA, Island IPA's participating providers and the Hospitals agreed (a), in the event that MDNY becomes insolvent (pursuant to a court approved order or admits its inability to pay its debts), to subordinate their rights to payment by MDNY of outstanding claims (including IBNR) to all other outstanding claims in an amount equal to the amount of the then outstanding Island Debt, and (b) that, after payment of third party claims, the claims of Island IPA and its providers will be subordinated to the claims of the Hospitals; and (iii) the amount of the Island Debt outstanding from time to time will be carried on the financial statements of MDNY as an admitted asset. The aggregate amount owed by MDNY to the subordinating parties in the form of medical claims payable was approximately $14 million and $14 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. In 2003 and 2002 the Island Debt was adjusted for additional claims and reduced by the IPA Withhold pursuant to the Recovery and Subordination Agreement. The Island Debt was approximately $14 million and $18.5 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. On July 31, 2002, NYSID issued its Report on Examination of The MDNY Healthcare, Inc. as of June 30, 2000 dated April 2, 2001 and revised July 31, 2002 (the "Final Report"). The Final Report states, among other things, that, based on the execution of the Recovery and Subordination Agreement, "the IPA receivable will be allowed as an admitted asset and the examination insolvency will be eliminated. [NYSID] will monitor the impact of the [Recovery and Subordination] Agreement." As discussed above, in September 2005 NYSID reversed its position regarding admissibility of the Island Debt. 4 Statutory Reserve Requirements NYSDOH and the NYSID require MDNY to maintain reserves in the form of an escrow deposit and statutory net worth. In June 2005, NYSDOH adopted revised regulations regarding the amount HMOs and certain other health care organizations must maintain as the contingent reserve fund. Prior to 2005 the contingent reserve was capped at 5% annually. Effective December 2005 the amount is capped at 5% of premium for fiscal years 2005 and 2006 and then increases 1% per year over the next eight years to twelve and one half percent of the HMO's annual premium income. The increase in reserves is effective for the calendar year 2006. The contingent reserve requirement is deemed to be met if the statutory net worth of the HMO equals or exceeds the contingent reserve requirement. MDNY for calendar year 2005 and 2004 reported its contingent reserve at 5% of net premiums which totaled $5.8 and $6.7 million respectively. As a result of the Island Debt being reported as a non admitted asset for statutory purposes, negative statutory net assets of MDNY were $14.4 million at December 31, 2005 compared to positive statutory net assets of $5.4 million at December 31, 2004. MDNY is deficient in maintaining the required contingent reserve fund by $20.2 and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 respectively. In addition, effective March 2006, NYSDOH now requires certain Managed Care Organizations to establish a trust agreement with a bank insured by the FDIC. The trust must be funded by an amount equal to the escrow deposit and must be on deposit with the trust by March 31, 2006. Prior to establishment of the trust the agreement must be approved by the NYSID. As of December 31, 2005 the escrow deposit was calculated at 5% of MDNY's projected 2005 medical expenses of $102 million or $5.1 million. MDNY had approximately $5.9 million in cash and cash equivalents set aside to fund the escrow deposit. MDNY's trust agreement was approved on May 26, 2006. The failure of MDNY to meet reserve requirements, the failure of MDNY or the IPAs to comply with other existing laws and regulations or a significant change in such laws or regulations could materially and adversely affect the operations, financial condition and prospects of the Company and MDNY. Meeting the reserve requirements is a condition for continued licensure and that MDNY's failure to meet the contingent reserve fund requirement could cause the NYSID or NYSDOH to require more frequent reporting and, if necessary, require MDNY to develop for approval a corrective action plan to cure the impairment. However, should NYSID or NYSDOH determine that MDNY is insolvent; they could issue a Notice of Termination and direct MDNY to perform an orderly shutdown. Other Regulatory Matters According to the NYSID Final Report, the composition of MDNY's Board of Directors does not comply with Part 98-1.11(f) of the Administrative Rules and Regulations of the NYSDOH, which requires that at least 20% of MDNY's directors must be enrollees of MDNY. The NYSID Final Report recommends that the requisite number of "enrollee representatives" be elected to MDNY's Board of Directors. Upon the closing under the Stock Purchase Agreement among LIPH, MDNY and CHNLI, it is anticipated that MDNY's Board of Directors will include the requisite number of enrollee representatives. In the second quarter 2005, the NYSID conducted a market conduct audit for fiscal years 2002 through 2004 with a primary audit focus on year ended 2004. Summary of preliminary financial and operational findings were reviewed with MDNY in November 2005. There were no significant findings that would impact the results for 2005. The final report has not been released to MDNY. MDNY Business Overview MDNY is an independent practice association-model HMO that is licensed by the State of New York to operate in Nassau and Suffolk counties, New York. At December 31, 2005, MDNY had 80 full-time employees. MDNY's operations commenced on January 1, 1996. MDNY provides health care insurance to its members for a fixed monthly premium, plus a co-payment, as applicable, by the member to a participating physician for each office visit generally, and a dispensing fee or co-payment to the pharmacy for each prescription filled. The basic benefits provided within a member's benefit plan consist of primary and specialty physician care, inpatient and outpatient hospital services, emergency and preventive health care, laboratory and radiology services, ambulance services, eye care, physical and rehabilitative therapy services, chiropractic services, mental health care, and alcohol and substance abuse counseling. For an increased monthly premium, members have 5 the option to receive prescription drugs and other supplemental benefits through the purchase of benefit plan "riders". At December 31, 2005, MDNY had 32,708 continuing members comprised of individuals and families, enrolled in its health maintenance plans. MDNY's primary product lines include point-of-service plans and traditional HMO plans. A significant component of MDNY's membership and, therefore, premium revenue is derived from small groups and sole proprietors enrolling through associations or directly. This member group has traditionally experienced higher medical loss ratios than the other groups in MDNY's member base. Effective January 1, 2005, NYSID approved a 16% rate differential with respect to HMO sole proprietor products and POS sole proprietor members to help offset the higher medical loss ratio associated with this member group. MDNY's management currently monitors and evaluates MDNY's financial performance based on the combined service area of Nassau and Suffolk counties. MDNY entered into the Professional Services Agreements for the provision of applicable healthcare services to members, pursuant to which Island IPA arranges for the provision of medical and surgical services and Island Dental Professional Association IPA, Inc. arranges for the provision of dental services. Each IPA is responsible for contracting with individual health care providers and for overseeing the initial and continuous screening of participating health care providers. MDNY made direct payments to IPA participating providers in 2005 for professional and ancillary services rendered to members. All physicians who, through their contractual relationship with an IPA, participate in MDNY's provider network are required to participate in MDNY's quality improvement and utilization review programs. The quality improvement program is designed not only to maintain but also to continually improve the delivery of necessary medical care and includes: o Utilization reviews, management programs and outcome studies, which evaluate statistical information with respect to services used by members and prescribed by participating physician providers relating to such topics as preventive care services, prescription drugs, physician visits, emergency room use, hospital admissions and referrals made by primary care physicians to specialists; o Quality of care reviews, which identify issues affecting members, such as physician availability, physician treatment patterns and the structure and content of medical records; o Periodic peer reviews, which evaluate the quality and appropriateness of medical care provided by a particular physician and review, among other things, diagnoses, tests, prescription drug usage and the utilization level of the physician by the members; and o A physician committee infrastructure to oversee medical policy and the quality improvement program. The quality improvement program utilizes computerized claims information as well as medical records which are maintained by the physicians and to which MDNY has access. In addition and as required by state law, MDNY has an established appeals, complaints and procedures for members and participating physician providers. All appeals, complaints, and grievances are investigated and resolved pursuant to the procedures established by MDNY in accordance with New York State regulations. Additionally, the Company believes that educating MDNY's members with respect to health care is a critical component in health care cost containment. MDNY's quarterly newsletter to its members contains, among other items, information on preventive health care. MDNY also distributes information by telefax to participating providers. To further promote member participation in controlling health care costs, MDNY requires co-payments by its members for most office visits and some other services. Certain contracts also require members to pay co-payments for inpatient services. The Company is subject to the risk of disruption in MDNY's health care provider network. Network hospitals and other health care providers could terminate their contracts with MDNY. All MDNY contracts with hospitals that serve a significant portion of its business are generally subject to multiple year contracts. All hospital contracts can be terminated on specified notice. MDNY is routinely engaged in negotiations with health care providers, including various hospitals and hospital systems, involving payment arrangements and other contract terms. During such negotiations, hospitals, hospital systems, physicians and other providers may threaten to or, in fact, provide notice of termination of their agreement with MDNY as part of their negotiation strategy. These disputes could adversely affect MDNY or could expose MDNY to regulatory or other liabilities. Cost-containment arrangements entered into by MDNY could be adversely affected by difficulties encountered in the implementation or administration of such agreements, regulatory actions, contractual disputes, or the failure of the providers to comply with the terms of such agreements. Furthermore, the effect of mergers and consolidations of health care providers or potential unionization of, or concerted action by, physicians, hospitals or other providers in MDNY's service areas, could enhance the providers' bargaining power with respect to higher reimbursement levels and changes to MDNY's utilization review and administrative procedures. 6 MDNY has contracts with approximately 30 hospitals in its Long Island, New York service area providing for inpatient and outpatient care to MDNY's members. MDNY reimburses hospitals under these contracts based on negotiated per diems, diagnostic related groups ("DRGs"), case rates and fee schedules and, to a lesser extent, at prices discounted from the hospital's billed charges. The Company believes that the rates in these contracts are generally competitive. MDNY has various multi-year agreements subject to annual price negotiation with hospitals and hospital systems that are designed to provide predictability with respect to hospital costs and is currently negotiating with other hospital and hospital systems for similar multi-year arrangements. Contract pricing with 20 hospitals was renegotiated in 2005, and contract pricing with 23 hospitals is subject to renegotiation in 2006. In addition, there has been significant consolidation among hospitals in MDNY's service area, which tends to enhance the combined entity's bargaining power with managed care payors. As a result, there is the risk that certain hospitals may seek higher rates or seek to impose limitations on MDNY's utilization management efforts. There can be no assurance that MDNY will be able to secure multi-year agreements in the future. MDNY Products Provided below are summary descriptions of MDNY's main products. The benefits actually provided to MDNY members with respect to such products may vary depending upon the certificate of coverage filed by MDNY with NYSID. HMO Product (which includes HNY, Sole Proprietor and Individual plans) MDNY's HMO products are offered through two plan designs: MDFlex and MDFocus, which were previously marketed as MDValue, MDSelect and MDClassic ("HMO Product"). Although currently there are members enrolled in MDValue, MDSelect and MDClassic plans, MDNY stopped actively marketing these plans as of January 1, 2001. MDFocus and MDFlex plans are offered with a comprehensive selection of copays and require the member to select a personal physician who specializes in primary care (a primary care physician or "PCP") to oversee their healthcare needs. In the MDFlex program, the member must stay within MDNY's extensive participating provider network for healthcare services and is required to obtain referrals for out-of-network care. In the MDFocusplan, members have access to a more defined, selective network. All MDNY plans allow members direct access to specialists without a referral. HMO Product premiums accounted for approximately 89%, 87%, and 79% of total premiums earned by MDNY in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. POS Product (which includes Sole Proprietor and Individual plans) MDNY's point-of-service product allows members direct access to MDNY's preferred network and gives members the additional option to select any physician outside the MDNY preferred network, even without a referral ("POS Product"). members who choose the POS Product must meet an annual deductible and pay the appropriate coinsurance amount. POS Products are offered through the MDFlex and MDFocus programs. POS Product premiums accounted for approximately 11%, 13%, and 21% of total premiums earned in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Individual Products MDNY provides HMO and POS Products to individuals who reside or work in Nassau or Suffolk County, New York. New York State regulations require HMOs in the community-rated small group market to offer products with mandated benefits. Individual members in the small group market have access to MDNY's flex network. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, MDNY had 143 and 483 individual members, respectively, who accounted for 2% and 2% of total premiums earned in both 2005 and 2004. Sole Proprietor Products MDNY provides HMO and POS Products to sole proprietors. New York law requires health insurers that issue coverage through associations to offer the same coverage to sole proprietors. New York law permits health insurers to classify sole proprietors in their own community rating category and prohibits rates for sole proprietor coverage from exceeding 120% of the rates established for identical coverage issued to a group. MDNY has approval for a 16% rate differential between sole proprietors and the group rate on its HMO and POS Sole Proprietor Products, respectively. MDNY has contracts with approximately 10 associations for which MDNY offers both small group and sole proprietor coverage. members who meet eligibility requirements as sole proprietors have access to products sold through the association 7 or directly from internal sales representatives. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, MDNY had approximately 11,000 and 13,900 sole proprietor members, respectively, who accounted for 39% and 37% of total premiums earned in 2005 and 2004, respectively. HNY (Healthy New York) Products As required by the Health Care Reform Act 2000 ("HCRA"), MDNY offers two HMO products that offer a specified benefit package designed by the State of New York. Healthy New York is a program designed to make reduced cost comprehensive health insurance available to small businesses (including sole proprietors) that currently do not provide health insurance to their employees. Qualified individuals who work for employers that do not provide health insurance may also purchase these products. Specific participation criteria must be met to purchase these products. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, MDNY had 1,688 and 1,606 members, respectively, who purchased these products, which accounted for 3% and 1% of total premiums earned in 2005 and 2004, respectively. Marketing MDNY markets its products through a network of general agents and brokers that market MDNY's products to small-employer groups and associations. MDNY also maintains an in-house sales force for direct marketing to non-brokered accounts. Mdny.com MDNY's website, www.mdny.com, provides on-line access to MDNY for its members, brokers, employer groups and providers. During 2005, MDNY members continued to increase their use of the website. Competition The health care industry, both generally and in the New York metropolitan area, is characterized by intense competition. MDNY competes with independent HMOs, such as Health Insurance Plan of New York and United Health Group (formerly Oxford Health Plans), which have significant enrollment in the New York metropolitan area. MDNY also competes with HMOs and managed care plans sponsored by large health insurance companies, such as CIGNA Corporation, Aetna U.S. Healthcare Inc., United Health Group and Blue Cross/Blue Shield. These competitors have large enrollment levels in MDNY's service area. These competitors generally have been in existence for longer periods of time than MDNY, are better established than MDNY, and have greater financial resources, management experience and product development programs than MDNY. In addition, other organizations with resources greater than those of MDNY may enter into competition with MDNY by providing, for example, alternative healthcare delivery systems, by offering greater benefits for a smaller premium payment, or by offering products outside of the scope of MDNY's licensure. Additional competitors may enter MDNY's markets at any time in the future. The Company believes that the network of providers under contract with MDNY is an important competitive advantage. However, the cost of providing benefits is in many instances the controlling factor in obtaining and retaining employer groups, and certain of MDNY's competitors have developed products with premium rates below MDNY's based upon benefit plan designs that are outside of the scope of MDNY's licensure. There can be no assurance that MDNY will be able to compete effectively for the business of employer groups. If MDNY is unable to attract subscribers for its medical services, it will adversely affect MDNY's ability to generate revenues, thereby limiting MDNY's ability to make payments to the IPAs' participating providers. Government Regulation Federal and state laws and regulations impose substantial requirements on MDNY regarding such matters as licensure, provider networks, medical care delivery and quality assurance programs, eligibility requirements, geographic service areas, member rights and responsibilities, approval of contracts with health care providers (including but not limited to contracts that involve risk sharing or transfer) and administrative services providers, claims payment standards (including timeliness and accuracy of payment), minimum coverage obligations, including mandatory benefits, policy language, mandatory product offerings, utilization review standards and procedures, including internal and external member and provider appeals and financial condition, and disclosures to members and providers. In addition, MDNY is subject to state and federal laws and regulations relating to financial requirements and regulations relating to premium rates and rating methodologies, loss ratios, cash reserves, minimum net worth, permissible investments, corporate governance, participation in certain state-wide risk spreading pools among insurers, and transactions between affiliated companies, including dividends. Recently enacted state and federal laws and regulations impose additional requirements on MDNY relating to security and confidentiality of health care information. As part of the regulatory process, MDNY is required to file periodic reports with the relevant state 8 agencies relating to, among other things, operations, premium rates and covered benefits, financial condition and marketing practices. State Regulation New York State regulates HMOs pursuant to Article 44 of the Public Health Law. Subject to Article 44, HMOs are exempt from the New York Insurance Law and regulations New York State law requires that MDNY obtain a Certificate of Authority from NYSDOH in order to operate as an HMO. MDNY obtained a Certificate of Authority in December 1995. As an HMO, MDNY is subject to extensive regulatory requirements imposed by the State of New York, including requirements governing reporting, quality assurance, provider contracting, management agreements, financial and solvency issues, rate-setting, scope of benefits, marketing and related matters. State regulatory authorities exercise oversight regarding the provider networks, medical care delivery and quality assurance programs, contract forms and financial condition of MDNY. State regulations require MDNY to maintain restricted cash or available cash reserves, a minimum net worth and impose restrictions on MDNY's ability to make dividend payments, loans or other transfers. Applicable state statutes and regulations require an HMO to file periodic reports with the relevant state agencies, and contain requirements relating to the HMO's operation including its rates and benefits applicable to its products. MDNY is also subject to periodic examination by the relevant state regulatory authorities. Applicable federal and state regulations also contain licensing and other requirements relating to the offering of MDNY's products in new markets, which may restrict MDNY's ability to expand its business. As a New York State certified HMO, MDNY is subject to the New York Women's Health and Wellness Act. The Act provides, among other things, that, subject to certain exceptions (including for certain Religious Employers, as defined in the Act) all policies issued, renewed, modified or altered on or after January 1, 2003 must provide FDA approved contraceptive drugs and devices as part of prescription drug coverage through the addition of a rider. Certain Federal and New York State laws limit the extent to which healthcare providers may refer patients to businesses or facilities in which the health care provider has a financial interest. In pursuing healthcare-related business opportunities and investments, MDNY is required to limit its ownership, investment and payment practices and procedures and may be unable to invest in, contract with, or own certain healthcare entities unless the proposed arrangement satisfies the terms of applicable Federal and New York State laws. MDNY could be affected by certain state regulated risk allocation pools and state health care public policy initiatives. The risk allocation pools are designed primarily to spread the claims risk. New York also imposes assessments that are used to fund the state health and insurance departments and other state initiatives. Examples of these programs include, but are not limited to: the New York Market Stabilization Pools, which require insurers participating in the small group and individual insurance market in New York to contribute certain amounts to, or receive certain amounts from, the New York Stabilization Pools based upon certain criteria outlined in the applicable regulations of which have not been revised or implemented since 2004; The New York Direct Pay and Healthy New York Stop Loss Pools, provide insurers participating in these programs a limited amount of stop loss insurance for claims paid between certain thresholds. In January 1, 1997, New York State enacted the Health Care Reform Act of 2000 (the "HCRA"), which allows all private healthcare payors to negotiate payment rates for inpatient hospital services. Prior to enactment of HCRA, only HMO's could negotiate rates for these services. The enactment of HCRA adversely affected the ability of HMO's to negotiate rates. Also, beginning in January 1997, MDNY elected to make payments to state funding pools to finance hospital bad debt and charity care ("BDCC"), graduate medical education ("GME") and other state programs under the HCRA. Previously, hospital bad debt and charity care and graduate medical education were financed by surcharges on payments to hospitals for inpatient services. HCRA, GME and BDCC assessments were reauthorized effective July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2007. The state of the economy has affected individual states' budgets, which could result in New York attempting to defray these costs through increased taxes, new taxes, increased assessments and new assessments on the programs in which MDNY participates such as the New York GME and BDCC programs and other programs. The New York State 2005-2006 budget may include, among other things, a premium tax increase or increase in the BDCC assessment, an increase in the GME assessment, or an increase in the assessment for the NYSID and NYDOH budgets (to which MDNY may be required to contribute). Although MDNY could attempt to mitigate or cover its exposure from such proposed increased costs through, among other things, increases in premiums, there can be no assurance that MDNY will be able to mitigate or cover all of such costs resulting from the proposed New York State budget. Although MDNY has attempted to modify its product offerings to address the changing needs of its membership, there can be no assurance that the effects of the current downturn in economic conditions will not cause its existing membership to seek health coverage alternatives that MDNY does not offer or will not result in significant membership loss, lower average premium yields or decreased margins on continuing membership. During the past several years, New York has enacted significant legislation relating to managed care plans which contain provisions relating to, among other things, consumer disclosure, utilization review, removal of providers from the network, 9 appeals processes for both providers and members, mandatory benefits and products, including infertility and clinical trials, state funding pools, prompt payment and provider contract requirements. NYSID has re-interpreted existing law and regulations to limit the ability to apply contract exclusions. The impact of this re-interpretation is that additional claims will be reviewed for demonstration of medical necessity, and more appeals may be submitted to external review. It is difficult to predict whether additional regulatory requirements may apply to the operations of HMOs. It should be assumed, however, that the health care delivery system in New York State will continue to be subject to a high level of regulatory control, which may impose additional limitations on the ability of HMOs (including MDNY) to engage in various financial transactions. Effective July 1, 1999, New York enacted a new law establishing a right for health care consumers to obtain an external review of determinations made by HMOs and insurers when coverage of health care has been denied on the grounds that the service is not medically necessary or that such service is experimental or investigational and establishing standards for the certification of the external review agents. In addition, the law requires provider contracts to include an explanation of provider payment methodologies; the time periods for provider payments; the information to be relied upon to calculate payments and adjustments; and the process to be employed to resolve disputes concerning provider payments. In 2005, 10 claims were submitted and closed for external review. In 1998, New York enacted a law requiring the current Consumer Guide published by NYSID, which ranks health plans based on the ratio of complaints found to be valid and the ratio of appeals made through the grievance and Utilization Review process, including the number of times a health plan reverses a decision, to also include, effective September 1, 1999, the rate of physician board certification; provider turnover rates; the percentage of enrollees who have been seen for ambulatory or preventive care visits during the previous three years of enrollment; methods used to compensate providers; accreditation status of plans and indices of quality, including rates of mammography, prostate and cervical cancer screening, prenatal care, immunization; other information collected through the Quality Assurance Reporting Requirements; and the results of a consumer satisfaction survey conducted by MDNY. Pursuant to the prompt payment guidelines established under New York law, HMOs are required to pay providers within 45 calendar days of receipt of undisputed claims submitted for services provided. In the event a claim is disputed, the insurer or HMO must notify the provider within 30 calendar days of receipt and request additional information if necessary. In addition, interest on late claims and penalties of up to $500 per day per claim may be imposed upon an HMO that does not comply with the prompt payment guidelines. Effective January 1998, New York laws also require coverage of the following benefits: (i) HMOs are required to cover individuals undergoing mastectomies for a period to be determined by the attending physicians and the patient; (ii) out-of-network second opinions for cancer; (iii) all stages of reconstruction of the breast on which a mastectomy has been performed, and surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance; and (iv) unlimited chiropractic care rendered in certain circumstances by a licensed doctor of chiropractics upon referral by a PCP. Effective January 1998, coverage for enteral formulas is required for all plans which provide a pharmacy benefit. The modified food component of this mandated coverage is capped at $2,500 per member per year. Federal Regulation One of the most significant applicable federal laws is the Health Maintenance Organization Act of 1973, as amended (the "HMO Act"), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The HMO Act governs federally qualified HMO's, and prescribes the manner in which such HMO's must be organized and operated. MDNY is a federally qualified HMO. The federal Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998 (the "WHCR Act") mandates coverage of reconstructive surgery and other treatments associated with mastectomy. New York State's mastectomy and reconstruction mandates in effect since January 1, 1998, match or exceed the WHCR Act's requirements with the exception of the federal requirement for coverage of prostheses in group market products. The WHCR Act also prohibits the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program from using federal funds to contract with any health plan that provides coverage for prescription drugs unless that plan also provides coverage for contraceptives, including devices. The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (" HIPAA"), generally requires carriers that write small business in any market to accept for coverage any small employer group applying for a basic and standard plan of benefits. HIPAA also mandates guaranteed renewal of health care coverage for most employer groups, subject to certain defined exceptions, and provides for specified employer notice periods in connection with product and market withdrawals. The law further limits exclusions based on preexisting conditions for individuals covered under group policies to the extent the individuals had prior creditable coverage within a specified time frame. HIPAA is structured as a "floor" requirement, allowing states latitude to enact more stringent rules governing each of these restrictions. For example, certain states have modified HIPAA's small group definition (2-50 employees) to include groups of one. New York State has a similar law. 10 HIPAA Administrative Simplification; Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act The regulations under the administrative simplification section of HIPAA also impose a number of additional obligations on issuers of health insurance coverage and health benefit plan sponsors. The law authorizes the United States Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS") to issue standards for administrative simplification, as well as privacy and security of medical records and other individually identifiable health information ("Administrative Simplification"). Administrative Simplification requirements apply to self-funded group health plans, health insurers and HMOs, health care clearinghouses and health care providers who transmit health information electronically ("Covered Entities"). Regulations adopted to implement Administrative Simplification also require that business associates acting for or on behalf of these Covered Entities be contractually obligated to meet HIPAA standards. The Administrative Simplification regulations establish significant criminal penalties and civil sanctions for noncompliance. Although Administrative Simplification was intended ultimately to reduce administrative expenses and burdens faced within the health care industry, the law has required significant and, in some cases, costly changes in business practices and operations. We expect that we will incur additional expenses to comply with these regulations in future periods. HHS has released rules mandating the use of new standard formats with respect to certain health care transactions (e.g., health care claims information, plan eligibility, referral certification and authorization, claims status, plan enrollment and disenrollment, payment and remittance advice, plan premium payments and coordination of benefits). HHS also has published rules requiring the use of standardized code sets and unique identifiers for employers and providers. We have met all applicable requirements to date. We are required to comply with the provider identifier rules by May 2007. HHS also sets standards relating to the privacy of individually identifiable health information. In general, these regulations restrict the use and disclosure of medical records and other individually identifiable health information held by health plans and other affected entities in any form, whether communicated electronically, on paper or orally, subject only to limited exceptions. In addition, the regulations provide patients new rights to understand and control how their health information is used. These regulations do not preempt more stringent state laws and regulations that may apply to us. HHS has also published security regulations designed to protect member health information from unauthorized use or disclosure. We are required to comply with these security regulations. In addition, provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act generally require insurers to provide customers with notice regarding how their personal health and financial information is used and the opportunity to "opt out" of certain disclosures before the insurer shares non-public personal information with a non-affiliated third party. Like HIPAA, this law sets a "floor" standard, allowing states to adopt more stringent requirements governing privacy protection. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act also gives banks and other financial institutions the ability to affiliate with insurance companies, which may lead to new competitors in the insurance and health benefits fields. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") governs employee welfare plans, including self-funded plans. There have been recent legislative attempts to limit ERISA's preemptive effect on state laws. If such limitations are enacted, they might increase MDNY's exposure under state law claims that relate to self-funded plans administered by MDNY and may permit greater state regulation of other aspects of those business operations. The Mental Health Parity Act of 1996 prohibits group health plans and health insurance issuers providing mental health benefits from imposing lower aggregate annual or lifetime dollar-limits on mental health benefits than any such limits for medical or surgical benefits. These requirements do not apply to small employers who have no more than 50 employees or to any group health plan whose costs increase one per cent or more due to the application of these requirements. The Newborns' and Mothers' Health Protection Act of 1996 generally prohibits group health plans and health insurance issuers from restricting benefits for a mother's or newborn child's hospital stay in connection with childbirth to less than 48 hours for vaginal delivery and to less than 96 house for cesarean section. Proposed Federal and State Legislation State and federal government authorities are continually considering changes to laws and regulations applicable to MDNY. Over the past several years there has been significant controversy over allegations that payment for care has been inappropriately withheld or delayed by health care plans. This has led to significant public and political support for reform of health care regulation. The U.S. Congress and New York routinely consider regulation or legislation relating to mandatory coverage of certain benefits, provider compensation arrangements, health plan liability in cases when members do not receive appropriate or timely care, disclosure and composition of physician networks, health plan solvency standards and procedures dictating health plan utilization management and claim payment standards, among other matters. In recent years, bills have been introduced in the legislature in New York, including some form of the so-called "Any Willing Provider" initiative which 11 would require HMOs to allow any provider or facility meeting their credentialing criteria and willing to accept the HMOs reimbursement and conditions of participation to join their network regardless of geographic need, hospital admitting privileges and other important factors. Certain of these bills have also included provisions relating to mandatory disclosure of medical management policies and physician reimbursement methodologies. Numerous other health care proposals have been introduced in the U.S. Congress and in the state legislature. These include provisions which place limitations on premium levels, impose liability on health plans in cases when members do not receive appropriate or timely care, increase minimum capital and reserves and other financial viability requirements, prohibit or limit capitated arrangements or provider financial incentives, mandate benefits (including coverage of early intervention services, mandatory length of stay with surgery or emergency room coverage), define medical necessity and an antitrust exemption to permit competing health care professionals to bargain collectively with health plans and other entities. Congress is also considering proposals relating to health care reform, including a comprehensive package of requirements on managed care plans called the Patient Bill of Rights ("PBOR") legislation. These proposals seek to hold health plans liable for claims regarding health care delivery and accusations of improper denial of care, among other items. PBOR, if enacted, could expose MDNY to significant litigation risk. Such litigation could be costly to MDNY and could have a significant effect on the Company's results of operations. Although MDNY could attempt to mitigate or cover the effects of such costs through, among other things, increases in premiums, there can be no assurance that MDNY will be able to mitigate or cover the costs stemming from such PBOR legislation or the other costs incurred in connection with complying with such PBOR legislation. In addition, in 2003 and 2004, Congress considered, but did not adopt legislation permitting small businesses to pool together as Association health Plans ("AHPs") to purchase or self-fund health care coverage. The legislation provides AHPs with significant regulatory and rating advantages which would prevail over state and federal law applicable to most insurers and HMOs, including MDNY. In his State of the Union address in January 2005, the President again proposed adoption of legislation authorizing AHPs. Recently enacted legislation and the proposed regulatory and legislative changes described above, if enacted, could increase health care costs and administrative expenses and otherwise adversely affect the business, results of operations and financial condition of MDNY and its competitors.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of 2005 through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise. 13 PART II Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters There is no trading market for the shares of the Company's Common Stock, as ownership thereof is restricted pursuant to the Company's By-laws to certain physicians and other medical practitioner's resident in and licensed by New York State with office-based practices on Long Island, New York, and transfer thereof is restricted pursuant to the Company's By-laws. Under certain circumstances, the Company has the right, pursuant to the Company's By-laws, but not the obligation, to purchase stock of the Company which a shareholder desires to transfer, at a price based on the per share value determined by an independent certified public accountant. The Company has never paid any dividends on its Common Stock, and does not anticipate that dividends on the Common Stock will be declared and paid at any time in the foreseeable future. Payment of dividends will be contingent upon the Company's revenues and earnings, if any, and the capital requirements and general financial condition of the Company and of its subsidiaries. The payment of dividends in the future is entirely within the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. It is the present intention of the Company's Board of Directors to retain all earnings, if any, for use in connection with its business operations. Accordingly, the Board does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future. At December 31, 2005 there were 1,798 shareholders of record of the Company's Class A Common Stock and 4,044 holders of record of the Company's Class B Common Stock.

Reference should be made to such factors and all forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by the above cautionary statements. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The Company's financial statements as of December 31, 2005 and for the year then ended have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. See Consolidated Financial Statements. General Overview The Company owns 67% percent of the stock in MDNY. The Company is a holding company whose principal asset is its investment in MDNY and conducts no operating activities of its own. The Company's administrative, legal, accounting and insurance costs are funded by MDNY. Total costs funded by MDNY were $686,642 as of December 31, 2005. MDNY's principal source of revenue is premiums earned from its HMO and POS Products. Other revenue consists principally of interest income for 2005. MDNY's ability to achieve profitability depends principally on increasing membership while reducing medical expenses as a percentage of its premium revenue (the "medical loss ratio" or "MLR") and sufficiently managing administrative costs. During 2005, MDNY continued to implement programs to reduce administrative costs but as membership continued to decline to 32,708 from 40,447 in 2004, certain reductions became more difficult for MDNY to absorb. As a result, the administrative loss ratio increased to 15.3% in 2005 from 14.6% in 2004. As of December 31, 2005, the medical loss ratio for 2005 increased to 87.3% compared to 86.6% in 2004. In addition, net loss was negatively impacted by a $3,000,000 reserve against the Capitation Receivable recorded against the Island Debt. Likewise, operating losses resulted in the Company absorbing an additional $686,000 as a result of the negative minority interest balance. These factors contributed to the overall operating loss of $4,573,000 reported in 2005. The following tables show plan statistics, revenues earned, and certain other selected information: 2005 2004 inc(dec) %inc(dec) -------- -------- -------- -------- Enrollment 32,708 40,447 (7,739) (19%) Enrollment (months) 400,947 498,214 (97,267) (20%) Premiums $116,556 $135,209 (18,653) (14%) Medical Expenses (excl HCRA surcharge) $ 97,772 $112,331 (14,559) (13%) HCRA surcharge $ 3,986 $ 4,721 (735) (16%) Total Medical- (includes reinsurance) $101,758 $117,052 (15,294) (13%) Administrative $ 12,766 $ 14,359 (1,593) (11%) Capitation Receivable Reserve 3,000 -- 3,000 -- Commissions $ 4,873 $ 5,255 (382) (7%) 15 2005 2004 %inc(dec) -------- -------- --------- Premium pmpm $290.70 $271.39 7% Medical pmpm $243.85 $225.47 8% HCRA pmpm 9.94 9.47 5% Total medical pmpm $253.80 $234.94 8% Administrative pmpm $ 31.86 $ 28.82 11% Capitation Receivable Reserve pmpm $ 7.48 -- -- Commissions pmpm $ 12.15 $ 10.55 15% MDNY seeks to control medical expenses through arrangements with its affiliated IPAs and with non-IPA primary care physicians, with certain specialty providers, and through its quality improvement programs, utilization management and review of hospital inpatient and outpatient services, and educational programs on effective managed care for its providers. MDNY's medical loss ratio, including the HCRA surcharge was 87.3% and 86.6%, respectively, for 2005 and 2004. As of December 31, 2005, the Company's working capital deficit increased to $17.7 million from $17.2 million 2004. Negative operating results for the year ended December 31, 2005 contributed to the overall increase in the working capital deficit. MDNY has also established a receivable of approximately $2.4 million at December 31, 2005 related to certain stop loss pools established by the State of New York under the Health Care Reform Act of New York for years 2004 and 2005. These pools provide a limited amount of stop loss insurance funds to cover 90% of certain paid claims for the two New York mandated plans, Direct Pay and Healthy New York. The regulations governing the stop loss pools were extended by the New York State legislature until June 30, 2005. While MDNY has established its recoveries under the Stop Loss Pools based on its interpretations of the regulations, the amounts recorded related to the Pools may differ materially from the amounts that will ultimately be paid or received from the Pools based on final reconciliations. 16 Results of Operations The following table provides certain statement of operations data expressed as a percentage of total premium revenue and other statistical data for the years indicated: Statement of Operations Data Year ended December 31, ------------------------------------ Revenue: 2005 2004 2003 --------- --------- --------- Premiums earned 100.0 100.0% 100.0% Expenses: IPA medical expenses 87.3 86.6 86.3 Commissions expense 4.2 3.9 4.1 General and administrative expenses 11.0 10.6 8.8 Capitation Receivable Reserve 2.6 -- -- Depreciation .1 .1 .1 Total expenses (105.1) (101.2) (99.3) Operating income (loss) (5.1) (1.2) .7 Investment and other income .1 .1 .3 Income (loss) before income taxes/ minority interest (5.0) (1.1) 1.0 Provision for income taxes -- -- .1 Minority interest in subsidiary 1.0 .4 (.3) Net income (loss) (3.9) (.7) .7 Statistical Data: Enrollment 32,708 40,447 47,029 Member months 400,947 498,214 626,106 * Medical loss ratio 87.3% 86.6% 86.3% ** Administrative loss ratio 15.3% 14.6% 13.0% * Medical loss ratio - Medical expense and net reinsurance expense divided by total premium revenue. ** Administrative loss ratio - Commission expense, management fees, depreciation expense, and general and administrative expense divided by total premium revenue (excludes Capitation Receivable Reserve). Year Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004 Premiums earned for the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were approximately $116,556,000 and $135,209,000, respectively. At December 31, 2005, MDNY's commercial enrollees totaled approximately 32,708, as compared to approximately 40,447 at December 31, 2004. Premiums received decreased $18,653,000 or 14% in 2005 compared to 2004 as a result of decreased member months of 20%, partially offset by increases in premium yields of approximately 10% in 2005 compared with 2004. Overall membership decreased in 2005 primarily due to the loss the Diocese membership in January 2005 which accounted for approximately 3,800 members In addition, MDNY continues to lose membership to other competitors in its service area who can offer more attractive premium rates either by offering experience rated products or benefit plans with higher co-pays and deductibles. Currently, MDNY is licensed under Article 44 of the Public Health Law which prohibits the plan from offering these types of plans. Effective January 1, 2005 MDNY increased its HMO and POS rates approximately 7% and 10% respectively further contributing to the overall decline in enrollment. Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 were approximately $122,510, 000, as compared to $136,772,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. This 10% decrease in expenses is the result of lower medical expenses consistent with the overall 20% decrease in enrollment offset by an increase in overall medical costs of 13% together with the Capitation Receivable Reserve of $3,000,000 recorded against the Island Debt as of December 31, 2005. Health care service expense stated as a percentage of premium revenues was 87.3% for 2005 compared with 86.6% for 2004. Total medical expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased approximately $15,294,000 or 13% from 17 2004. This decrease is primarily the result of the overall 19% decrease in enrollment from 2004 partially offset by an increase in medical costs on a per member per month basis (pmpm) from $235 pmpm in 2004 to $254 pmpm in 2005; an 8% increase. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Expenses: December 31, 2005 December 31, 2004 % change -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Medical fee for service claims $ 97,772,006 $112,331,587 (13%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HCRA public goods expense $ 3,986,462 $ 4,720,657 (16%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total medical expense $101,758,468 $117,052,244 (13%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total administrative costs for 2005 and 2004 were approximately $12,766,000 and $14,359,000 respectively. This 11% decrease is the result of administrative staffing reductions in 2005 as a result of the decline in enrollment. Administrative expenses stated as a percentage of premium revenue were 11.0% for 2005 compared with 10.6% for 2004. Total Capitation Receivable Reserve for 2005 of $3,000,000 represents the difference in the amount owed from Island IPA to MDNY at December 31, 2005 of $17 million compared to the estimated amount of IPA claims owed by MDNY to Island IPA outstanding at December 31, 2005 of $14 million. $3 million represents the estimated amount of the Island Debt that would be deemed uncollectible due to the shortfall in outstanding IPA claims at December 31, 2005. The Island Debt is reflected as Payments in Excess of Capitation on the balance sheets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 respectively. Total commissions were approximately $4.9 million and $5.3 million for 2005 and 2004 respectively. This 7% decrease is the result of the 19% decline in enrollment from 2004 to 2005. Commissions as a percent of premium increased to 4.2% as of December 31, 2005 from 3.9% as of December 31, 2004. The loss of the Diocese membership effective January 1, 2005 resulted in, a higher proportion of the premium remaining in the plan to be generated through general agents, brokers, and associations. The percentage of premium generated through brokers and general agents was approximately 80% as of December 31, 2005 compared to 72% at December 31, 2004. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2005 was approximately $4,573,000, compared to a net loss of $909,000 for 2004. This negative result in 2005 is primarily the result of the $3 million reserve for Capitation Receivable Reserve recorded against the Island Debt in 2005. Likewise, 2005 operating losses resulted in the Company absorbing an additional $686,000 as a result of the negative minority interest balance. Further contributing to the overall loss reported in 2005 was the 19% decline in enrollment in 2005. MDNY continued to implement programs to reduce administrative costs as membership continued to decline to 32,708 from 40,447 in 2004, but certain reductions became more difficult for MDNY to absorb. As a result, the administrative loss ratio increased to 15.3% in 2005 from 14.6% in 2004. In addition, the medical loss ratio for 2005 increased to 87.3% compared to 86.6% in 2004. These factors contributed to the overall loss reported in 2005. The table below illustrates the membership mix between HMO and POS products at December 31, 2005 compared to 2004. The membership at December 31, 2005 and 2004 is primarily in HMO products. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Product HMO POS Total -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Membership at Dec 31, 2005 30,628 2,080 32,708 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Membership at Dec. 31, 2004 37,355 3,092 40,447 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- % Membership mix 2005 94% 6% 100% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- % Membership mix 2004 92% 8% 100% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18 Year Ended December 31, 2004 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2003 Premiums earned for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 were approximately $135,209,000 and $153,276,000, respectively. At December 31, 2004, MDNY's commercial enrollees totaled approximately 40,400, as compared to approximately 47,000 at December 31, 2003. Premiums received decreased $18,067,000 or 12% in 2004 compared to 2003 as a result of decreased member months of 20%, partially offset by increases in premium yields of approximately 11% in 2004 compared with 2003. Overall membership decreased at December 31, 2004 primarily due to the loss of the POS business from the Diocese which accounted for approximately 2,000 members (and 3,800 members overall). In addition, MDNY continued to lose membership to other competitors in its service area who offered more attractive premium rates either by offering experience rated products or benefit plans with higher co-pays and deductibles. MDNY is licensed under Article 44 of the Public Health Law which prohibits MDNY from offering these types of plans. Effective January 1, 2004 MDNY increased its HMO and POS rates approximately 12% and 20% respectively further contributing to the overall decline in enrollment. Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $136,771,565 as compared to $152,136,657 for the year ended December 31, 2003. This 10% decrease in expenses is the result of lower medical expenses consistent with the overall 14% decrease in enrollment partially offset by an increase in overall medical costs of 11%. In addition, total administrative costs increased 6% from 2003. MDNY incurred approximately $800,000 of advertising costs in 2004. Health care service expense stated as a percentage of premium revenues was 86.6% for 2004 compared with 86.3% for 2003. Total medical expenses for the year ended December 31, 2004 decreased $15,149,984 or 11% from 2003. This decrease is primarily the result of the overall 14% decrease in enrollment from 2003 partially offset by an increase in medical costs on a per member per month basis of 11% over 2003. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Expenses: December 31, 2004 December 31, 2003 % change -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Medical fee for service claims $112,331,587 $127,109,852 (12%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HCRA public goods expense $4,720,657 $5,092,376 (7.3%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total medical expense $117,052,244 $132,202,228 (12%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Administrative expenses stated as a percentage of premium revenue were 14.6% for 2004 compared with 13% for 2003. This increase was the result of approximately $800,000 of advertising costs incurred in 2004. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2004 was approximately $(908,572), compared to a net profit of $1,010,000 for 2003. This negative result in 2004 is primarily the 14% decline in enrollment in 2004. As membership continued to decline in 2004 reductions in administrative costs became more difficult to attain. Advertising costs incurred in the fourth quarter 2004 further contributed to the increase in administrative costs of 6%. The table below illustrates the membership mix between HMO and POS products at December 31, 2004 compared to 2003. As a result of premium increases of approximately 20% on POS products together with the loss of 2,000 POS members from the Diocese, a larger percentage, 92%, of the membership at December 31, 2004 were enrolled in HMO products. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Product HMO POS Total -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Membership at Dec 31, 2004 37,355 3,092 40,447 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Membership at Dec. 31, 2003 40,357 6,672 47,029 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- % Membership mix 2004 92% 8% 100% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- % Membership mix 2003 86% 14% 100% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19 Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash flows provided by operating activities and used in investing activities of approximately $987,000 and $(180,000), respectively, in 2005 resulted in an overall increase in cash and cash equivalents in 2005 of $808,000. The increase in net cash and cash equivalents is directly related to the timing of when claims are paid. The consolidated financial statements of the Company and of MDNY as of December 31, 2005 and for the year then ended have been prepared assuming that the Company and MDNY will each continue as a going concern. The Company had negative working capital of approximately $17,720,000 at December 31, 2005 compared to a negative working capital of approximately $17,233,000 at December 31, 2004. The amount of negative working capital increased in 2005 as a result of operating losses in 2005. MDNY's liquidity is substantially dependent upon its ability to meet its current obligations. MDNY does not have the ability to obtain a line of credit with financial institutions as MDNY is only authorized to borrow 5% of approved assets subject to approval by the NYSID. The Company anticipates that the 2006 rate increases together with the initiatives described in Item 1 under the caption "Business Strategy" and additional investment will produce sufficient cash flows to meet MDNY's obligations in 2006. There can be no assurance that MDNY will be able to achieve sufficient cash flows. Capital Reserves and Liquidity Certain matters relating to MDNY's regulatory status, its compliance with applicable reserve and statutory net worth requirements and liquidity are discussed in Item 1 under the captions "Business--Certain Regulatory Matters". The continued failure of MDNY to meet reserve requirements or the failure of MDNY or the IPAs to comply with other existing laws and regulations or a significant change in such laws or regulations could materially and adversely affect the operations, financial condition and prospects of the Company, MDNY and the IPAs. Meeting the reserve requirements is a condition for continued licensure and that MDNY's failure to meet the contingent reserve fund requirement could cause the NYSID or DOH to require more frequent reporting and, if necessary, require MDNY to develop for approval a corrective action plan to cure the impairment. However, should NYSID and DOH determine that MDNY is insolvent; they could issue a Notice of Termination and direct MDNY to perform an orderly shutdown. The consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2005 and for the year then ended have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. In addition to MDNY's need for additional capital, MDNY is evaluating offers from potential investors. However, there can be no assurance that any such investment will be completed on terms acceptable to MDNY, its shareholders, or NYSID. MDNY's long term liquidity depends upon its ability to improve its operations and financial performance in order to meet its financial obligations, achieve statutory compliance, and achieve profitability. While the Company believes that implementation of MDNY's plans to achieve profitability, together with additional investment capital, will provide MDNY with the ability to continue as a going concern, there is no assurance that such actions will achieve positive results from operations or adequate working capital and equity sufficient to ensure the long-term viability of MDNY and the Company. . MDNY obtained a Section 1307 loan from LIPH, LLC for $1 million in 1997 and another from CHNLI for $1.4 million in 1998. Interest on these loans accrues at the prime rate and is payable quarterly. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein. These loans together with the accrued interest and certain statutory items brought MDNY's statutory net worth at December 31, 2005 to $2.6 million compared to the NYSID required net worth of $5.8 million. (Under Section 1307, the principal and interest are treated as equity capital for regulatory purposes and are repayable out of free and divisible surplus, subject to the prior approval of NYSID). See note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein 20 Contractual Obligations MDNY is contractually obligated to make payments as follows: Payments Due by Period --------------------------------------------------- Contractual Obligations Total 1 Year 1-3 Years 4-5 Years ----------------------- ----- ------ --------- --------- (Amounts in thousands) Operating leases 1,609,775 636,002 876,024 97,749 --------- ------- ------- ------- Total 1,609,775 636,002 876,024 97,749 Operating lease terms generally range from one to ten years with certain early termination or renewal provisions at MDNY's option. MDNY is subject to various contracts with certain health care providers and facilities for the provision of health care services to its members. Such contracts involve payments to or from MDNY, generally on a monthly basis, in the ordinary course of business and are not included in the above table. In addition, MDNY has notes payable to its owner CHNLI and affiliate LIPH, LLC totaling $3.6 million at December 31, 2005. These note payables are considered Surplus notes and as such repayment of the principal and accrued interest shall be made only out of the free and divisible surplus of the MDNY and all amounts to be paid are subject to prior approval from NYSID. Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Company's management to make a variety of estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect, among other things, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results can differ from the amounts previously estimated, which were based on the information available at the time the estimates were made. Our estimate of medical costs payable represents management's best estimate of the Company's liability for unpaid medical costs as of December 31, 2005, developed using consistently applied actuarial methods. Management believes the amount of medical costs payable is reasonable and adequate to cover the Company's liability for unpaid claims as of December 31, 2005; however, actual claims payments may differ from established estimates. The critical accounting policies described below are those that the Company believes are important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results, and which require management to make subjective and/or complex judgments. Critical accounting policies cover matters that are inherently uncertain because the future resolution of such matters is unknown. The Company's board of directors has discussed the development and selection of the critical accounting estimates and related disclosures with MDNY's management. The Company believes that its critical accounting policies include revenue recognition (including the estimation of Capitation Receivable Reserve and retroactivity reserves) and medical costs payable (including reserves for incurred but not reported or paid claims). A more detailed description of the significant accounting policies used by the Company in preparing its financial statements is included in Note 2 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition Commercial membership contracts are generally established on an annual basis subject to cancellation by the employer group, individual or MDNY upon 30 days' written notice. Premiums are due monthly and are recognized as revenue during the month in which MDNY is obligated to provide services to subscribers. Premiums collected in advance of the coverage period are recorded as unearned revenue. Premiums receivable are presented net of valuation allowances for estimated uncollectible amounts, based on known activities and balances and on historical trends. 21 MDNY evaluates the collectibility of its premiums receivable based on a combination of factors. These estimates are based on MDNY's assessment of the collectibility of specific accounts, the aging of premiums receivable, historical retroactivity trends, bad-debt write-offs and other known factors. If economic or industry trends change beyond MDNY's estimates or if there is a determination in financial condition of a major group or account, increases in the reserve for uncollectible accounts may result. Medical costs payable MDNY contracts with various health care providers for the provision of covered medical care services to its members and compensates those providers on a fee-for-service basis. MDNY also bears the risk of health care expenses for covered services provided by non-contracted providers to members. Costs of health care and medical costs payable for health care services provided to members are estimated by management based on evaluations of providers' claims submitted and provisions for IBNR. MDNY estimates the provision for IBNR using standard actuarial loss development methodologies applied to loss development data summarized on the basis of the month services are rendered and the month claims are paid, processed or received, and considers other items including, without limitation, historical levels of denied claims, medical cost trends, seasonal patterns and changes in membership mix. The estimates for submitted claims and IBNR are made on an accrual basis and adjusted in future periods as necessary. Adjustments to prior period estimates, if any, are included in the current period. Separately identified as public goods payable are estimated liabilities for New York's Graduate Medical Education (GME) and hospital Bad Debt and Charity Care (BDCC) programs, which are state health care public policy initiatives aimed at defraying the costs of other health care providers, such as hospitals. Management believes that the amount of medical costs payable and Public Goods Payable are adequate to cover MDNY's ultimate liability for unpaid claims as of December 31, 2005; however, actual claim payments and other items may differ from established estimates. Assuming a hypothetical 1% difference between our December 31, 2005 estimates of medical costs payable and actual costs payable, 2005 earnings from operations would increase or decrease by $272,000 and diluted net earnings per common share would increase or decrease by approximately $47 per share. Inflation Medical costs have been rising at a higher rate than that for consumer goods as a whole. The Company believes that MDNY's premium increases, provider reimbursement arrangements and other cost control measures mitigate, but do not wholly offset, the effects of medical cost inflation on MDNY's operations. MDNY's inability to increase premiums could negatively effect MDNY's future earnings. Off Balance Sheet Arrangements The company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchange of Non-monetary Assets" ("SFAS No. 153"), an amendment of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 29. In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47, "Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations" ("FIN 47"). In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, " Accounting Changes and Error Corrections" ("SFAS No. 154"), a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, and amends SFAS No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows." Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a rule that amends the compliance date for SFAS No. 123(R). The rule allows the Company to delay the implementation of SFAS No. 123(R) until January 1, 2006. The Company has not issued any share based payments to employees, including stock options, to its employees. 22 As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company accounted for share-based payments to employees using APB No. 25's intrinsic value method through December 31, 2005 and, as such, has recognized no compensation cost for employee stock options. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R)'s fair value method will have no effect on its results of operations. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk In the normal course of operations, MDNY is exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in interest rates primarily through its borrowing activities and minimally through its short-term investments. Market risk is defined for these purposes as the potential change in the fair value of debt instruments resulting from an adverse movement in interest rates. As of December 31, 2005, MDNY's only borrowings were under two promissory notes from LIPH, LLC and CHNLI, in the original aggregate principal amount of $2.4 million, which accrue interest at the prime rate. At December 31, 2005, total principal and interest due LIPH, LLC and CHNLI was approximately $1.5 million and $2.1 million, respectively. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates, applied to MDNY's borrowings at December 31, 2005, would result in an increase in annual interest expense and a corresponding reduction in cash flow (were such interest to be paid) of approximately $24,000. The Company believes that MDNY's exposure to market risk relating to interest rate risk is not material. MDNY has no derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments, nor does MDNY generally have any financial instruments entered into for trading or hedging purposes. The Company believes that MDNY's business operations are not exposed in any material respect to market risk relating to foreign currency exchange risk or commodity price risk. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplemental Data See Audited Financial Statements commencing on page F1. Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure On November 8, 2005 we filed with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 1, 2005, disclosing under "Item 8.01 - Other Events," disclosing our dismissal of the prior audit firm, PriceWaterhouseCoopers LLP. and the engagement of our new auditor, Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP. The dismissal was not the result of any disagreement(s) with the prior audit firm. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures The Company's management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934) is a process 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. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company's assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that the Company's receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company's management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate 23 There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. Based on an evaluation by the Company's President and Chairman of the Board and its Chief Financial Officer as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), are effective.

Our audit also included the financial statement schedule for the year ended December 31, 2005 listed in the accompanying index of this Form 10-K. These consolidated financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our audit. We conducted our audit 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation and its subsidiary as of December 31, 2005 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule for the year ended December 31, 2005, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has a substantial working capital deficit, has incurred cumulative losses since inception and has experienced a continued decline in enrollment. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP Melville, New York May 9, 2006 F1 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation In our opinion, the consolidated balance sheet and related consolidated statements of operations and accumulated deficit and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation and its subsidiary (the "Company") at December 31, 2004, and the results of their operations for each of the two years in the period ended 2004 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. F5 Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Organization Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation (the "Company" or "LIPH Corp") was incorporated on October 11, 1994 in the State of New York as a holding company for purposes to advance the delivery of healthcare on Long Island, New York (Queens, Nassau and Suffolk Counties). The Company is controlled by individual physicians residing in New York State. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the activity of the Company and its majority owned subsidiary, MDNY Healthcare, Inc. ("MDNY"), a health maintenance organization. Catholic Health Network of Long Island ("CHNLI") is the minority owner of MDNY. The majority of healthcare services are provided by Catholic Health Services of Long Island ("CHSLI"), an affiliate of CHNLI, and physicians who are members of affiliated independent practice associations ("IPAs"). Island Professional Association IPA, Inc. ("Island IPA") is the primary affiliated IPA, and is owned by Long Island Physician Holdings, LLC ("LIPH, LLC"). Island IPA participating providers who hold membership interests in LIPH, LLC also own shares in LIPH, Corp (see note 7). 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary, MDNY. Intercompany balances and activities have been eliminated in consolidation. Minority interest represents the proportionate share of the equity in the subsidiary that is attributable to the minority owner. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual method of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Included in cash and cash equivalents are amounts on deposit at one financial institution in excess of $100,000, which is the maximum insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company. Management believes that the institutions are viable entities and no risk of loss exists. The Company routinely invests its restricted funds in money market accounts. These funds generally invest in highly liquid securities. Medical Services Expense Medical services expense, as recorded in the consolidated statements of operations, includes the cost of inpatient hospitalization and outpatient medical services provided or contracted for and are accrued in the period they are incurred. The costs of claims incurred but not reported are estimated based on historical data, current enrollment statistics, patient census data and other information. Such estimates and the resulting reserves are continually reviewed and updated and any adjustments resulting there from are reflected in earnings currently. F6 Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amounts owed to Island IPA participating providers, CHS hospitals and all other providers of medical services are recorded as medical claims payable in the consolidated balance sheets. Medical services expense relating to CHS and Island IPA were approximately $44 million, $55 million and $64 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to 10 years. Equipment recorded under capital leases is amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the equipment. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and the related depreciation are reversed from the account and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statement of operations and accumulated deficit. Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred. Premium Revenue Commercial membership contracts are written on an annual basis subject to cancellation by the employer group upon thirty days written notice. Premiums are due monthly and are recognized as revenue during the period in which the Company is obligated to provide services to subscribers. Premiums collected in advance are deferred and recorded as unearned premium revenue in the consolidated balance sheets. Reinsurance Reinsurance premiums are reported as medical services expense, and reinsurance recoveries, when collection is deemed probable, are reported as a reduction of medical services expense in the consolidated statements of operations and accumulated deficit. Advertising Costs Advertising costs are charged to operations when the advertising first takes place. Included in general and administrative expenses are advertising costs approximating $130,000, $672,000, and $ 12,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. Income Taxes Under the balance sheet-based liability method specified by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", ("SFAS 109"), deferred income taxes recorded by the Company reflect the net effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company's net operating income (loss) for tax purposes differs from the income (loss) for financial reporting purposes primarily as a result of the timing of bad debt write-offs, accrued interest and depreciation expense. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the potential future benefit of such net deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. F7 Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to allowances for uncollectible accounts, medical claims payable and receivables and payables recorded relating to New York public goods and stabilization pools. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Segment Reporting The Company currently operates in one reportable business segment. All of the Company's services are provided within the United States, and all of the Company's assets are located within the United States of America. Stock-based Compensation Plan SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), as amended by SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure and amendment of FASB Statement No. 123" ("SFAS 148") encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based compensation plans at fair value. In addition, SFAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensations, and amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the methods used on reported results. The Company has chosen to adopt only the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 and continues to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"), and related interpretations. The Company's stock option plan is described in note 15. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS No. 123(R)), which amends FASB Statement Nos. 13 and 95. FAS No.123(R) requires all companies to measure compensation expense for all share-based payments (including employee stock options) at fair value and recognize the expense over the related service period. Additionally, excess tax benefits, as defined in FAS No. 123 (R), will be recognized as an addition to paid-in capital and will be reclassified from operating cash flows to financing cash flows in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. FAS No. 123 (R) will be effective for the first quarter of 2006. All options outstanding at December 31, 2004 expired July 1, 2005 and no additional options were issued. F8 3. Going Concern The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a substantial working capital deficit, has a negative net worth, has incurred cumulative losses since inception, and has experienced a continued decline in enrollment. Furthermore, the Company has utilized substantially all of the cash raised in its initial equity infusion in funding its operations and currently does not meet its New York State contingent reserve funding requirement. In addition, CHSLI and the Diocese of Rockville Centre terminated their respective subscriber contracts effective January 1, 2006 and 2005 respectively. Effective January 1,2005 MDNY entered into an agreement with a financial advisor to pursue investors to recapitalize MDNY. MDNY has been in negotiations with various equity investors to implement the following plans to improve liquidity and restore profitability to MDNY. A summary of these transactions are outlined below: - With additional capital, the Company would apply for an Article 42 (Accident and Health Company) license which would allow MDNY to develop new products and benefit plan designs with higher co-pays and deductibles to be marketed to its customers. MDNY's competitors currently market these products to their customers. - Achieve administrative savings by consolidating certain administrative functions including information system platforms. - Management has initiated reductions in operating and medical expenses primarily related to staffing, negotiation of certain specialty carve out contracts, and renegotiating existing provider contracts. -Effective January 1, 2006 Island IPA has agreed to increase the amount of withhold to approximately 10% in an effort to accelerate payment of their outstanding debt due MDNY as requested by the NYSID. While management believes that implementation of these plans will achieve profitability and adequate statutory capital, there is no assurance that any equity investment will be completed on terms acceptable to MDNY, its shareholders, or NYSID, if at all. 4. Recovery and Subordination Agreement In 2000 and prior years, MDNY had various risk-sharing participation arrangements with affiliated IPAs in which MDNY was obligated to pay the IPAs a percentage of commercial and Medicare premiums, net of provision for uncollectible accounts and commission expenses ("Capitated Arrangement"). These related IPAs were responsible for all healthcare service reimbursements to its members and other non-member third-party providers with whom MDNY had contracted. F9 Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effective January 1, 2001, MDNY entered into a new financial arrangement with affiliated IPAs. Under this arrangement, IPA participating physicians are reimbursed on a fee for service basis for covered services, as defined in the applicable subscriber agreement. Furthermore, during 2001, as part of the agreement between MDNY and the IPAs, MDNY agreed to assume responsibility for payments related to the New York State Public Goods Pools (see note 12). Since MDNY agreed to assume responsibility for medical services provided to its members, it therefore bears full risk under this financial arrangement. On July 31, 2002, NYSID issued its Report on Examination of MDNY Healthcare, Inc. as of June 30, 2000 dated April 2, 2001 and revised July 31, 2002 (the "Final Report"). The Final Report states, among other things, that, based on the execution of a Recovery and Subordination Agreement between MDNY and the NYSID, the NYSID permitted a receivable to be recognized from Island IPA as an admitted asset for medical claims paid by MDNY in excess of the negotiated Capitated Arrangement ("Payments in Excess of Capitation"). MDNY agreed to enter into non-risk contracts with the IPAs and the examination insolvency was eliminated. MDNY recognized an initial receivable of approximately $23.2 million, which represented actual claims paid in 2001 to Island IPA participating providers with dates of service prior to January 1, 2001. Subsequent to the initial recognition, the receivable has been adjusted for additional claims paid after 2001, and reduced by a 5% withhold of payments as stipulated in the Recovery and Subordination Agreement. As of December 31, 2005 the amount of claims due to Island IPA and CHSLI was approximately $14 million. MDNY recorded a bad debt reserve of $3 million against the IPA note of $17 million to reflect this shortfall in estimated amount of IPA claims outstanding at December 31, 2005. The net amount due from Island IPA, which is classified in the balance sheet as payments in excess of capitation, was approximately $14 million, net of an allowance of $3,000,000 and $18.5 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. In accordance with the Recovery and Subordination Agreement: o Island IPA for itself and on behalf of each of its participating physicians and CHS and its hospital affiliates (collectively the "Subordinating Parties") agree to subordinate their rights to payment of outstanding claims, including claims incurred but not reported ("IBNR"), owed by MDNY to all other creditors in the event of MDNY's insolvency. The aggregate amounts owed to these Subordinating Parties in the form of medical claims payable as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 were approximately $14 million and $14 million, respectively. o Effective January 1, 2002, Island IPA began retaining a non-distributable withhold in the amount of 5% of payments to participating providers and has remitted the entire amount of the withhold to MDNY. During 2005 and 2004, the amount remitted to MDNY reduced the payments in excess of capitation receivable by approximately $1.5 million and $1.5 million respectively. F10 Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- o Also effective January 1, 2002, MDNY is obligated to make payment to Island IPA for unrestricted access to its network of participating providers in amount equal to $1.50 per member per month ("network access fee"). The amounts owed by MDNY to Island IPA for the network access fee were to be used to reduce the payments in excess of capitation. However, because MDNY reported a loss, continues to be deficient in meeting its required contingent reserves, and continues to fund the IPAs administrative costs, Island IPA agreed to waive the network access fee for years 2005 and prior. o Island IPA is obligated to pay MDNY a portion of all income it receives from sources other than MDNY. Such payments would be in an amount equal to gross collections minus operational and administrative expenses ("net revenue") received by Island IPA from such sources. Since the effective date of the agreement, Island IPA has not received any income from other sources, and therefore, the Company has not received any such payments as of December 31, 2005. o The withhold remittances, net revenue remittances, and network access fees described above will remain in effect until such time as the repayment of the debt to MDNY has been fully satisfied. MDNY had a negative working capital of approximately $17.7 million and $17.2 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. In accordance with the Recovery and Subordination Agreement, if MDNY admits its inability to pay its debts at any point in time or NYSID determines MDNY is insolvent, Island IPAs participating providers and CHSLI have agreed to the subordination of the portion of outstanding medical claim obligations they are owed, up to amount these providers owe as payments in excess of capitation. This amount of potential subordination was approximately $14 million and $14 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. On September 16, 2005, NYSID advised MDNY that NYSID had determined that MDNY should have reported the IPA receivable as a non-admitted asset for statutory purposes, and that the resulting reduction in net worth results in MDNY having an insolvency in the amount of $12,666,791 as of June 30, 2005. NYSID had directed MDNY to make every effort to collect, in cash, the outstanding amount currently due from Island IPA as soon as possible but no later than December 31, 2005 and requested that MDNY provide a detailed plan, by September 30, 2005, detailing the steps MDNY will take to collect the outstanding balance. In November 2005 NYSID reiterated its position that the receivable should be not be reflected as an admitted asset but extended the payment due date to June 30, 2006. MDNY believes that NYSID's letter of September 16, 2005 contradicts NYSID's letter of March 20, 2002, in which NYSID approved a recovery plan proposed by MDNY that, among other things, provided for MDNY to reflect in its financial statements an admitted asset, "Payments in Excess of Capitation," as well as an offsetting liability "Unpaid Capitation." MDNY continued to withhold 5% of the IPA provider claims as repayment of the note in 2005. F11 Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a letter dated May 8, 2006, NYSID reiterated its position that the IPA note should be reported as a non-admitted asset and further directed the Company to file amended statutory reports reflecting this revision. The revised negative statutory net worth at December 31, 2005 was $14,376,000. Effective January 1, 2006, the IPA agreed to increase the withhold payment amount to approximately 10% to accelerate payment of the debt owed to MDNY. The estimated amount of IPA claims that would be offset against the IPA note at December 31, 2005 was approximately $14,000,000 therefore the Company's balance sheets reflect the Payments in Excess of Capitation at December 31, 2005 at $14,000,000; $17,000,000 net of a bad debt allowance of $3,000,000. In addition, MDNY is currently in discussions with a potential investor who, in connection with an investment into MDNY, is working with MDNY, Island IPA and NYSID to, among other things, determine the ultimate approved status of the note from the Island IPA. There can be no assurance that the parties will be able to complete an agreement on terms acceptable to MDNY, its shareholders, NYSID, or the investor. 5. NYSID Reserve Requirements As a condition of continued licensure by NYSID, MDNY must maintain certain reserve requirements to protect its subscribers in the event the Company is unable to meet its obligations. Escrow Deposit Reserve Requirement Effective March, 2006, MDNY is required to establish an escrow account with a custodian in the form of a trust. This minimum funding is equal to 5% of projected medical expenditures of the following year or $100,000, whichever is greater. At December 31, 2005 and 2004 the minimum escrow deposit requirement was $5.1 million. MDNY had approximately $5,911,795 and $5,817,000 of money market funds on deposit in escrow as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. These funds are included in the balance sheets as restricted cash and cash equivalents. Contingent Reserve Requirement In June 2005, the Department of Health adopted revised regulations regarding the amount HMOs and certain other health care organizations must maintain as the contingent reserve fund. That amount has increased from 5% annually to increasing 1% per year over the next eight years to a maximum of twelve and one half percent of the HMO's annual premium income. The new revision is effective for the calendar year 2006. The contingent reserve requirement shall be deemed to have been met if the statutory net worth of MDNY equals or exceeds the contingent reserve requirement. MDNY for calendar year 2005 and 2004 reported its contingent reserve at 5% of net premiums which totaled $5.8 and $6.7 million respectively. As a result of the IPA note being reported as a non-admitted asset for statutory purposes, MDNY's statutory negative net worth was $14.4 million at December 31, 2005 compared to a positive net worth of $5.4 million December 31, 2004. MDNY is deficient in maintaining the required contingent reserve fund by $20.2 and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk The mix of receivables from related parties and others at December 31, 2005 and 2004, are as follows: 2005 2004 Related parties 43% 41% Other 57 59 -------- -------- 100% 100% ======== ======== 7. Related Parties The Company had the following material transactions with related parties: Catholic Health Services of Long Island ("CHSLI") and the Diocese of Rockville Centre ("Diocese") The Company also provides health care services for employees of CHSLI. The premiums from these services are included in premiums earned in the consolidated statements of operations and accumulated deficit, and outstanding receivables for these services are part of premiums receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. CHSLI represented approximately 20% of total premiums earned by the Company during 2005 and 28% and 27% during 2004 and 2003, respectively. In addition, CHSLI premium receivables outstanding as of December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were approximately $2.3 million, $3.3 million and $6.5 million, respectively. There were no outstanding premium receivables due from the Diocese at December 31, 2005 and 2004. MDNY is subject to the New York Women's Health and Wellness Act, which, as of January 1, 2003, obligates MDNY to provide contraceptive drugs and devices to its members, in conflict with the ethical policies of the Diocese to which CHNLI and CHSLI are subject. In light of this conflict, the Diocese withdrew its membership as of January 1, 2005 and CHNLI entered into stock purchase agreements with MDNY and LIPH, Inc. to effectuate CHNLI's desire to withdraw as a MDNY shareholder (see note #17). CHSLI did not renew their current subscriber contract effective January 1, 2006. 8. Reinsurance The Company entered into stop loss agreements with an insurance company to limit losses on individual claims. In 2005, the terms of the agreements a percentage of certain hospital claims in excess of $150,000 and total individual aggregate claims in excess of $1,000,000 are reimbursed to the Company. In 2004 and 2003 the Company, a percentage of hospital claims in excess of $100,000 were reimbursed to the Company. Reinsurance premiums of approximately $318,000 in 2005, $352,000 in 2004 and $528,000 in 2003 are included in medical services expense on the consolidated statements of operations and accumulated deficit. Any reinsurance recoveries are also included in medical services expense. Reinsurance recoverables at December 31, 2005 and 2004 were approximately $317,000 and $146,000, respectively.

Related Party Notes Payable During 1998, with the approval of the NYSID, MDNY obtained a loan from LIPH, LLC. The outstanding balance, including accrued interest, was approximately $1,469,000 and $1,406,000 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Interest on this amount accrues at the prime rate (7.25% at December 31, 2005) and is payable quarterly commencing October 1, 1998. The entire principal balance plus any accrued interest was originally due on July 1, 1999, but is subject to prior approval by the NYSID. In April 1999, MDNY and LIPH, LLC amended the note agreement to provide LIPH, LLC with the unilateral right to convert the note to an equity investment in MDNY. In August 1999, MDNY's Board authorized the conversion of the outstanding balance of the LIPH, LLC note to shares of common stock in MDNY. The outstanding balance has not yet been converted, nor have additional shares been issued, as MDNY has not yet received approval from the NYSID. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $62,000. During 1997, with the approval of the NYSID, MDNY obtained a loan from CHS. The outstanding balance, including accrued interest, was approximately $2,131,000 and $2,044,000 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Interest on this amount accrues at the prime rate (7.25% at December 31, 2005) and is payable quarterly commencing April 1, 1998. The entire principal balance under the note plus any accrued interest is due in full upon approval by the NYSID. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $87,000. Repayment of the principal and payment of accrued interest on the note shall be made only out of the free and divisible surplus of MDNY and all amounts to be paid or repaid are subject to the prior approval of the NYSID.

(2) Current year claim payments as a percentage of current year reported medical costs. (3) Current year withhold payments as a percentage of current year reported medical costs. MDNY recognizes changes in accounting estimates for claims incurred but unpaid as more experience is acquired or as additional information is obtained. Negative amounts noted as "prior year" during 2005 and 2004, are favorable adjustments for claim estimates being settled for amounts less than originally anticipated. 12. Commitments and Contingencies Public Goods Pool The Company makes payments to New York State funding pools to finance hospital bad debt and charity care ("BDCC"), graduate medical education ("GME") and other state programs under the Health Care Reform Act of 1996 ("HCRA"). Outstanding liabilities related to the pools are included within public goods payable on the consolidated balance sheets. Expenses related to these pools were approximately $4 million, $4.7 million and $4.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and are included within medical services expense on the consolidated statements of operations. F15 Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Programs Under HCRA, New York State provides a limited amount of stop loss insurance funding to cover 90% of certain paid claims for specified New York Mandated Plans and for the Healthy New York Plan. The Company has recorded a receivable of approximately $2,356,000 and $1,457,000 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, which is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, New York State imposes assessments that are used to fund the state health and insurance departments and other state initiatives. Stabilization Pools [Regulation 146] Insurers who participate in the small group and individual insurance market in New York are required to contribute certain amounts to the New York Stabilization Pools, while others receive certain amounts from the New York Stabilization Pools, based upon the criteria outlined in the applicable regulations. These pools are designed to spread claims risk between insurers who participate in this market. For the years ended December 31, 1999 and prior, two separate pools were in operation; one determined by demographic data and the other determined by the incidence of certain specified medical conditions. For years 1999-2004, a single pool operated based on the experience of each insurer with respect to specified medical conditions. On July 13, 2005, the Insurance department relieved the Company of liabilities for years 1999-2004. The Insurance Department has not issued a new or revised Regulation 146 with respect to years subsequent to 2004. Therefore, as of December 31, 2005 the Company has not recorded any impact related to the stabilization pools. Lease Commitments Future minimum rental expense commitments to be paid under operating leases, for office space and other facilities including escalations and electric charges, are as follows for each of the next five years and in the aggregate: Year Amount 2006 $ 636,002 2007 644,017 2008 232,007 2009 57,536 2010 40,213 ---------- $1,609,775 ========== Employment Agreements MDNY currently has employment agreements with two key executives. These agreements were for an initial term of three years which expired on December 31, 2003. The agreements automatically renew on a year to year basis unless either party gives 90 days prior written notice not to renew. These agreements contain certain provisions for standard benefits including a change of control provision. If the Company has a change of control and the key executives are notified of a termination of employment other than as expressly permitted by the agreement, MDNY would be responsible for the greater of (1) the annual incentive paid to him for the previous year, and (2) 200% of the annual base salary in effect at the time of such Termination of Employment. Litigation The Company is involved in litigation arising in the course of business. Management estimates that these matters will be resolved without material adverse effect on the Company's future financial position or results from operations.

As of December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the future tax benefit of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As such, a valuation allowance has been recorded against the full value of the net deferred tax asset. The Company does not file consolidated tax returns with MDNY, therefore, as of December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, the Company has a net operating loss carryforward for federal income tax purposes of $1.7 million, $1.5 million, and $1.3 million respectively. At December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, the Company's net operating loss carryforward for state purposes was $1.4 million, $1.2 million, and $.9 million respectively. F17 As of December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, MDNY has a net operating loss Carry forward for Federal income tax purposes of approximately $11.4 million, $8.5 million, and $7.5 million respectively, which will begin to expire in 2011.

Stockholders' Equity During 1995, the Company offered its shares through a private placement offering to various office based physicians, psychologists, podiatrists and dentists practicing on Long Island, New York (Queens, Nassau and Suffolk Counties, New York). Shares of Class A and Class B common stock were offered to physicians based on their specialties at a price of $2,000 per share. The Class A common stock is voting stock and has been offered only to primary care physicians, specialty care physicians, anesthesiologists and oral surgeons. The Class B common stock is non-voting stock. Holders of Class B common stock are not entitled to vote their shares of Class B common stock at meetings of the Company's stockholders, except as provided by the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York with respect to certain extraordinary corporate transactions. F18 During 1996, the Company issued 39 Class A shares and 63 Class B shares for $204,000. The Company reserved for issuance upon exercise of "non-qualified" stock options that number of shares of Class B common stock equal to no more than fifteen (15%) of the total number of shares currently outstanding. The Company has issued to certain organizers 1,041 options to purchase shares of Class B common stock at $2,000 per share, exercisable at any time after July 1, 1998. The options are non-transferable and expired on July 1, 2005. In June 2004, the Company offered certain non-physicians the opportunity to exchange one share of Class B stock for one share of Class A voting stock. As a result of the exchange, at December 31, 2005 there were 1,798 shares of Class A common stock and 4,044 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. 16. MDNY Healthcare, Inc. At December 31, 2005, the Company holds 907 shares of MDNY's $.001 par value Class A common stock, for which it paid $9,070,000. CHNLI holds the remaining 451 shares of MDNY's $.001 par value Class B common stock, for which it paid $4,510,000. CHNLI's ownership interest in MDNY is reflected as minority interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The holders of Class A common stock, voting as a class, shall elect ten directors by the affirmative vote of the majority of the issued and outstanding Class A common stock entitled to vote thereon. The holders of Class B common stock, voting as a class, shall elect four directors by the affirmative vote of the majority of the issued and outstanding Class B common stock entitled to vote thereon. The holders of Class A and Class B common stock, voting together, shall elect four directors by the affirmative vote of the majority of the issue and outstanding Class A and Class B common stock entitled to vote thereon. CHNLI shall have the following additional rights: o CHNLI, being the owner of 100% of MDNY's Class B common stock, shall have the right to nominate and elect four members of the MDNY board of directors, and have representation on certain key committees of the MDNY board. o A supermajority voting is included in the MDNY by-laws with respect to (i) the selection and inclusion of network hospitals, (ii) amendment, modification or change to the MDNY by-laws, (iii) any modification or change to risk pool funding methodologies, (iv) the issuance of additional shares of MDNY stock, and (v) the transfer by either CHNLI or the Company of any MDNY stock held by either entity. The separate and affirmative vote of (1) at least a majority of the CHNLI elected directors and (2) at least a majority of the non-CHNLI-appointed directors shall be required to effect any of the foregoing actions of the MDNY board. F19 17. Stock Purchase Agreement MDNY, LIPH, Inc. and CHNLI entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement dated December 31, 2004. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, LIPH will purchase from CHNLI all shares of Class B common stock of MDNY owned by CHNLI for a payment of $10. CHNLI will contribute to the capital of MDNY, and for cancellation, the Subordinated Note, together with accrued interest, dated December 18, 1997 (see Note 10). Upon the closing of such purchase, LIPH will be the sole stockholder of MDNY. Additional consideration, defined as a percentage of proceeds, will be given to CHNLI in the event the Company is sold prior to December 31, 2008. CHNLI is waiting for approval from the Attorney General of the State of New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York in order to sign final closing documents. 18. Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share Basic and diluted income (loss) per share is based on the number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding during the period. At December 31, 2004, the Company had outstanding stock options to purchase 1,041 shares of Class B common stock that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of common shares. These options expired on July 1, 2005. No additional options were issued in 2005(see note 15). F20 Schedule of Valuation and Qualifying Accounts

LONG ISLAND PHYSICIAN HOLDINGS CORPORATION One Huntington Quadrangle Melville, New York 11747 _______________________________ PROXY STATEMENT _______________________________ For Annual Meeting of Shareholders To Be Held on July 25, 2006 Information Concerning the Solicitation This Proxy Statement is furnished to the holders of Class A Common Stock, par value $.001 (the "Class A Stock"), the only class of voting stock of Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation, a New York corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company to be held at 6:00 p.m., July 25, 2006 at the Huntington Hilton Hotel, 598 Broadhollow Road, Melville, New York, and at any adjournment thereof (the "Meeting"), pursuant to the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. This Proxy Statement and the form of Proxy were first mailed to the shareholders on or about June 30, 2006. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on June 13, 2006 (the "Record Date") are entitled to notice of the Meeting and only holders of record of the Class A Stock on that date are entitled to vote at the Meeting. The outstanding voting securities of the Company on the Record Date consisted of 1,799 shares of Class A Stock. On all matters requiring a vote by holders of the Class A Stock, each share of Class A Stock entitles the holder of record to one vote. The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A Stock, present in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Meeting. The Company's Class A Stock is not listed on any exchange, quoted on any market or otherwise publicly traded and is subject to certain restrictions on ownership and transfer pursuant to the Company's By-laws. HOLDERS OF CLASS A STOCK MUST VOTE THEIR SHARES ON THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD. VOTING OF PROXIES Shares represented by Proxies, in the accompanying form of Proxy Cards, which are properly executed, duly returned and not revoked, will be voted in accordance with the instructions contained therein. If no specification is indicated on the Proxy, the shares represented thereby will, unless otherwise directed by the shareholder, be voted (i) to ratify the appointment of the four persons nominated by the Board of Directors who have held over as Class A directors since the expiration of their term at the 2005 Annual Meeting; (ii) for the election as Class B directors of the four persons who have been nominated by the Board of Directors; (iii) for approval of Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP as the Company's auditors for the 2006 fiscal year; and (iv) on any other matter that may properly be brought before the Meeting in accordance with the judgment of the person or persons voting the Proxy. The execution of a Proxy will not affect a shareholder's right to attend the Meeting and vote in person. Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, boxes and a designated blank space are provided on the form of proxy for stockholders to mark if they wish to vote in favor of or withhold authority to vote for one or more of the Company's nominees for director. New York law and the Company's By-laws require the presence of a quorum for the Meeting, defined as the presence of stockholders entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes that all stockholders are entitled to cast at the Meeting. Votes withheld from director nominees and abstentions will be counted in determining whether a quorum has been reached. Assuming a quorum has been reached, a determination must be made as to the results of the vote on each matter submitted for stockholder approval. Director nominees must receive a plurality of the votes cast at the Meeting, which means that a vote withheld from a particular nominee or nominees will not affect the outcome of the election of directors. Any Proxy executed and returned by a shareholder may be revoked at any time thereafter if written notice of revocation is given to the Secretary of the Company prior to the vote to be taken at the Meeting, or by execution of a subsequent Proxy which is presented at the Meeting, or if the shareholder attends the Meeting and votes by ballot, except as to any matter or matters upon which a vote shall have been cast pursuant to the authority conferred by such Proxy prior to such revocation. The cost of solicitation of the Proxies being solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors will be borne by the Company. In addition to use of the mails, proxy solicitation may be made by telephone, telecopy, electronic mail and personal interview by officers, directors and employees of the Company. The Company will bear all costs in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of proxies of the Meeting. Officers and employees of the Company who solicit Proxies will receive no extra compensation for such solicitation. 2 Proposal 1 ELECTION OF DIRECTORS The Company's By-laws provide for a staggered term Board of Directors by the classification of the Board of Directors into three classes of four directors each (Class A, Class B and Class C). In August 2001, the Company's By-laws were amended to, among other things, reduce the number of directors from 40 to 12, appoint 12 continuing directors to serve as Class A, Class B and Class C directors for an initial term expiring on the 2002, 2003 and 2004 Annual Meetings, respectively, and provide that, upon the expiration of the initial term of each Class of directors, such Class would have a term of three years, or until a Director's successor shall be duly elected and qualified. The Company failed to hold an Annual Meeting in 2002 and 2003 and failed to obtain a quorum at the Annual Meetings in 2004 and 2005. The initial term (and three year extension through the 2005 Annual Meeting) of the Class A directors expired at the 2005 Annual Meeting, and the initial term (and three year extension through the 2006 Annual Meeting) of the Class B directors has expired. The holdover Class A directors have been nominated to remain in office until their term expires at the 2008 Annual Meeting of shareholders, and until their successors have been elected and qualified. The nominees for Class B directors have been nominated to remain in office until their term expires at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and until their successors have been elected and qualified. Proxies will not be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named below. The nominees listed below are all currently directors of the Company. The Board is not aware of any reason why any nominee may be unable to serve as a director. If any nominee is unable to serve, the shares represented by all valid Proxies will be voted for the election of such other person as the Board may recommend. Unless otherwise specified, all Proxies received will be voted in favor of the election of the persons named below as directors of the Company, to serve until the expiration of the terms for which they are elected and until their successors shall be duly elected and qualified. Management has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unable or unwilling to serve as a director, if elected. Should any of the nominees not remain a candidate for election at the date of the Meeting, the Proxies will be voted in favor of those nominees who remain candidates and may be voted for substitute nominees selected by the Board of Directors. The names of the nominees and certain information received from them are set forth in the following table, including their principal occupations, for at least the last five years, and the names of any other companies whose securities are publicly held and of which they presently serve as directors.

From time to time, the members of the Board of Directors and its Committees may also act by unanimous consent. The Company believes that all of the directors attended more than 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and Committees on which he or she served during Fiscal 2005. The Company has no formal policy with respect to Board members' attendance at annual meetings of Shareholders, although all Board members are encouraged to attend annual meetings. 5 The Company does not have a Compensation Committee or Audit Committee or committees performing similar functions. The Board of Directors has determined that the Company does not have an "audit committee financial expert" serving on the Board of Directors. In May 2001, the Board of Directors created an Executive Committee having all the authority of the full Board, except as to certain matters specified by New York law. The Executive Committee consists of Salvatore Caravella, M.D., Paul Kolker, M.D., Ronald Perrone, M.D., Rosario Romano, M.D. and Amy Koreen, M.D. The Executive Committee did not meet during Fiscal 2005. The MDNY board of directors has created an Operations Committee, a Hospital Selection Committee and a Medical Delivery Committee. See "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions." The Company pays each director a fee equal to $200 per meeting attended for serving as a director. Nominating Procedures; Shareholder Recommendations The Company's By-laws provide for the Board of Directors to maintain a standing Nominating Committee, consisting of five shareholders of whom not more than three may be directors. The purpose of the committee is to nominate members for the Board of Directors and its committees. The Nominating Committee will consider nominees recommended in writing by shareholders, if such nominees would be qualified to serve as directors pursuant to the Company's By-laws. The Nominating Committee has no charter. The Nominating Committee did not meet during Fiscal 2005. All seats on the Nominating Committee are currently vacant, and the full Board of Directors performs the function of the Nominating Committee, which the Board of Directors believes is an appropriate function in light of the size of the Board and the familiarity of each director with the background and qualifications of each nominee. Certain directors (including Drs. Kolker, Caravella, Romano, Jason and Perrone may be deemed not to be "independent" within the meaning of Section 803 of the Amex Company Guide by virtue of their receipt of compensation from or respective positions with MDNY. In considering an incumbent director whose term of office is to expire, the Board of Directors reviews the director's overall service during the person's term, the number of meetings attended, level of participation and quality of performance. When identifying and evaluating nominees for new directors, the Board of Directors meets to discuss and consider such candidates' qualifications and then chooses a candidate by majority vote. The Board of Directors will consider in good faith qualified director candidates who are recommended by shareholders. To be considered for nomination the Board of Directors at the next annual meeting of shareholders, the Board must receive shareholder recommendations at least 120 calendar days before the anniversary date of the Company's proxy statement for the previous year's annual meeting. To recommend a candidate, a shareholder should send the candidate's name, age, credentials (including principal occupation and employment), contact information and the candidate's consent to be considered to the Chairman of the Board in care of the Company at its principal executive office address. The shareholder should also provide the shareholder's contact information, describe the shareholder's relationship with the candidate, and include a statement as to the number of shares and the class of Company common stock owned by the shareholder and the length of time such shares have been owned. Shareholder Communications With The Board Of Directors Although the Company does not have a formal procedure for shareholder communication with the Board, the Company's Board of Directors has always been, and will remain, open to communications from the Company's shareholders. In general, members of the Board and executive officers are accessible by mail in care of the Company. Any matter intended for the Board, or for any individual member or members of the Board, should be directed to the Company's Secretary with a request to forward the communication to the intended recipient. In the alternative, shareholders can direct correspondence to the Board to the attention of the Chairman of the Board, in care of the Company at the Company's principal executive office address. The Company will forward all such communications to the intended recipient in a timely manner. 6 Compensation of Executive Officers The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation for services to the Company during each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 for Paul Kolker, M.D., the Company's President and Chairman of the Board, and each other executive officer of the Company (including MDNY) whose annual salary and bonus compensation with respect to the 2005 calendar year exceeded $100,000 (the "Named Executive Officers").

Certain of the directors have participated in certain transactions with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. See "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions." Report of Board of Directors as to Compensation Neither the Company nor MDNY has a Compensation Committee or other Board Committee performing equivalent functions. Compensation for the MDNY's executives, including the Named Executive Officers, is determined by the Board of Directors of MDNY as a whole. During Fiscal 2005, the five directors of the Company (Drs. Caravella, Gallo, Kolker, Koreen and Jason) who also serve as directors of MDNY participated in deliberations regarding compensation of Paul Accardi, Concetta Pryor and Dr. Perrone, including the amount and nature of their participation in MDNY's annual incentive program, which is within the discretion of the MDNY Board."

The Board's approval of these payments to Dr. Kolker was not linked to the performance of the Company or MDNY but were based on Dr. Kolker's efforts and success in connection with such negotiations and on the fact that MDNY made similar payments to David Weissberg, M.D., Dr. Kolker's predecessor as the Company's Chairman and President.

Employment and Severance Agreements 8 As of January 1, 2001, MDNY entered into Employment Agreements with each of Paul Accardi and Ronald R. Perrone (the "Executives"), which provide for Mr. Accardi to serve as MDNY's Chief Executive Officer and Dr. Perrone to serve as MDNY's Chief Medical Officer, respectively. Dr. Perrone is permitted to maintain a limited independent medical practice. The initial term of each Employment Agreement expired on December 31, 2003. The term of each Agreement is subject to automatic renewal on a year-to-year basis, unless either party gives at least 90 days prior written notice of termination. The Employment Agreements for Mr. Accardi and Dr. Perrone provide for a base salary of $360,000 and $290,000, respectively, which is subject to annual increase in the discretion of MDNY's Board of Directors. The Executives also participate in MDNY's annual incentive program, with an initial target incentive opportunity of 30% of base salary. Except as described below with respect to salary continuation, the amount and nature of the Executives' participation in the annual incentive program is within MDNY's sole discretion. The Executives are eligible to participate in any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit plans and any health, life, accident or disability insurance plans or programs to the same extent as other similarly situated key employees of MDNY. The Executives receive the health, life and disability benefits provided for the executive officers of MDNY and other fringe benefits, if any, provided to executive officers of MDNY that may be authorized from time to time by MDNY's Board of Directors. Each Executive receives a monthly automobile allowance of $500 for the use of an automobile used in connection with business matters. Each Employment Agreement provides that if there is a Change of Control (as defined) and there is a Termination of Employment during the term of the Agreement solely due to MDNY's termination of an Executive's employment other than as expressly permitted by the Agreement, MDNY must continue to pay the Executive's base salary in effect on the date of such termination and an annual adjustment payment equal to the greater of (1) the annual incentive paid to him for the previous year, and (2) 200% of the annual base salary in effect at the time of such Termination of Employment (an "Adjustment Payment"), subject to all required withholding taxes, for a period commencing on the date of such Termination of Employment and ending on the date which is the day before the second anniversary of such date. MDNY must pay the Executive the Adjustment Payments within 45 days after the first and second anniversaries of the date of the Termination of Employment. The Employment Agreements define "Termination of Employment" to mean the termination of the Executives' employment by MDNY for any reason other than any of the following: death; permanent disability (as defined); voluntary termination of employment; or termination of employment by MDNY for cause (as defined). Voluntary termination of employment is deemed a "Termination of Employment" if the voluntary termination occurs as a result of any of the following: (i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent in any respect with his position (including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities, or any action by MDNY which results in a diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this purpose isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent actions not taken in bad faith which are remedied by MDNY promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive; MDNY requiring the Executive to be based at an office or location greater than 50 miles from MDNY's current offices; or any purported termination by MDNY of the Executive's employment other than as expressly permitted by the Agreement. The Agreements provide that, in the event of a Termination of Employment that is not in connection with a Change of Control, the Executive will continue to receive his base salary, in effect on the date of the Termination of Employment, and will receive an Adjustment Payment, subject to all required withholding taxes, for the period commencing on the date that his employment is terminated and ending on the day before the first anniversary thereof. This Adjustment Payment is due within 45 days after the first anniversary of the Termination of Employment. For a period of one year after the termination of the Executive's employment by MDNY for whatever reason, each Employment Agreement imposes certain non-competition and non-solicitation obligations regarding MDNY and its customers, suppliers, service providers and employees. 9 In May 2004, MDNY entered into a Severance Agreement with Concetta Pryor, Chief Financial Officer of the Company and of MDNY. The Agreement provides that Ms. Pryor will receive no severance if her employment terminates due to Cause (as defined) or death. If her employment terminates due to permanent disability (as defined) she will receive salary through the end of the month in which she becomes permanently disabled. If Ms. Pryor's employment terminates other than for permanent disability, cause or death, then, regardless whether termination results from a Change of Control (as defined), Ms. Pryor will continue to receive her base salary, payable bi-weekly, in effect on the termination date, subject to all withholding taxes, for nine months after termination. In addition, Ms. Pryor will receive an adjustment payment equal to the quarterly average of the preceding nine months of performance incentive payments to be paid in intervals at the end of each quarter starting three months after termination.

In accordance with SEC rules, shares which may be acquired upon exercise of stock options which are currently exercisable or which become exercisable within 60 days after the date of the information in the table are deemed to be beneficially owned by the optionee. Except as indicated by footnote, and subject to community property laws where applicable, to the Company's knowledge, the persons or entities named in the table above are believed to have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock shown as beneficially owned by them. For purposes of calculating the percentage or outstanding shares held by each person named above, any shares which such person has the right to acquire within 60 days after the date of the information in the table are deemed to be outstanding, but not for the purpose of calculating the percentage ownership of any other person.

(3) Includes 500 shares of the Company's Class B Stock beneficially owned by LIPH Bridge Partners, Inc., of which Drs. Kolker, Perrone and Jason are shareholders and directors. There is no trading market for the shares of the Company's Common Stock, as ownership thereof is restricted pursuant to the Company's By-laws to certain physicians and other medical practitioners resident in and licensed by New York State with office-based practices on Long Island, New York, and transfer thereof is also restricted pursuant to the Company's By-laws. Under certain circumstances, the Company has the right, pursuant to the Company's By-laws, but not the obligation, to purchase stock of the Company which a shareholder desires to transfer, at a price based on the per share value determined by an independent certified public accountant. 11 There are no arrangements, known to the Company, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change in control of the Company. Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans The Company does not maintain any compensation plan (including any individual compensation arrangements), approved by security holders or not, under which equity securities of the Company are authorized for issuance. Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity securities ("Principal Owners") to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of any subsequent changes in ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Specific due dates for these reports have been established and the Company is required to disclose any failure to file by these dates. The Company believes that none of the Company's directors, executive officers or Principal Owners has filed an initial Form 3 or a Form 5 with respect to any year, and none of the Company's directors, executive officers or Principal Owners has made written representations to the Company that no such reports were required with regard to Fiscal 2005. Ownership and transfer of the Company's stock is restricted by the Company's By-laws, and the Company believes that none of the Company's directors, executive officers and Principal Owners had any transactions in Company stock reportable during Fiscal 2005 or any prior year (other than the year with respect to which each director, executive officer and Principal Owner became obligated to file a Form 3) and that none of such persons were required to comply with Section 16(a) filing requirements by filing a Form 5 or otherwise with respect to Fiscal 2005 or any prior year (other than the year with respect to which each director, executive officer and Principal Owner was obligated to file a Form 3). CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Certain Relationships and Related Transactions Long Island Physician Holdings Corporation (the "Company" or "LIPH") is a New York corporation formed in 1994 and owned by physicians residing and practicing in New York State. The Company conducts no operating activities of its own. The Company's principal asset is 67% of the stock in MDNY Healthcare, Inc. ("MDNY"), an independent practice association-model health maintenance organization ("HMO"), that currently operates in Nassau and Suffolk counties, New York. The financial statements of MDNY are consolidated into the audited financial statements of the Company. Catholic Healthcare Network of Long Island, Inc. ("CHNLI") owns the remaining 33% of the stock in MDNY. MDNY commenced operations in 1996.. At December 31, 2005, MDNY had 32,078 continuing members, comprised of individuals and families, enrolled in its health maintenance plans and point-of-service plans The Company is affiliated with LIPH, LLC (the "LLC"), a New York limited liability company formed in December 1996. Upon the formation of the LLC, the shareholders of the Company owned all of the membership interests in the LLC. The assets of the LLC consist of the stock in three independent practice associations, Island Practice Association, IPA, Inc. ("Island IPA"), Island Behavioral Health Association IPA, Inc. (currently inactive) and Island Dental Professional Association IPA, Inc. (the "IPAs"). MDNY has entered into various contractual arrangements (the "Professional Services Agreements") with the IPAs to arrange for the provision of applicable health care and administrative services to the members of MDNY. During 1995, the Company offered and sold shares of its common stock in a private placement to physicians, psychologists, podiatrists and dentists practicing on Long Island, New York (i.e., Queens, Nassau and Suffolk Counties). The Company offered shares of its Class A and Class B Stock to physicians based on their service specialty at a price of $2,000 per share. The Class A Stock is voting stock, and was initially offered only to primary care physicians, specialty care physicians, anesthesiologists and oral surgeons. No stockholder may own more than one share of Class A Stock. Holders of Class B Stock are not entitled to vote their shares of Class 12 B Stock at meetings of the Company's stockholders, except as provided by New York law. During 1996, the Company issued additional shares of its Class A Stock and Class B Stock. In order to encourage greater participation in the Company on the part of certain qualified psychologists, general dentists, specialty dentists (with the exception of oral and maxillofacial surgeons), podiatrists and chiropractors who were not initially permitted to own Class A Stock, the By-laws were amended in 1997 to allow such practitioners to own one share of Class A Stock. The By-laws were amended in August 2001 to provide that such practitioners may not as a group hold more than two seats on the Company's Board of Directors (subject to adjustment as provided therein).. The Company issued to certain organizers non-qualified options to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,115 shares of Class B Stock at $2,000 per share exercisable at any time after July 1, 1998, subject to acceleration in the event of certain transactions. 616 of such options were granted to certain directors of the Company. Shares underlying such options represent 15% of the total number of the Company's shares outstanding on the date of grant. All such options expired unexercised on July 1, 2005. A Stock Subscription and Purchase Agreement dated December 11, 1995 among the Company, CHNLI and MDNY sets forth certain provisions relating, among other things to the operation and development of the business of MDNY and the IPAs. MDNY's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides for six directors ("Class A Directors") to be elected by the holders of the Class A Common Stock (i.e., the Company) voting separately as a class; three directors ("Class B Directors") elected by the holders of the Class B Common Stock (i.e., CHNLI) voting separately as a class; three directors elected by the holders of both the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock voting together as a class; and class voting by MDNY's Class A and B stockholders voting separately to approve the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of MDNY's assets. MDNY's Certificate of Incorporation also requires the approval of a majority of MDNY's Class A Directors voting separately, a majority of MDNY's Class B Directors voting separately, and a majority of MDNY's Class A and Class B Directors voting together, to authorize certain action by MDNY, including: the selection or termination of hospitals which are participating providers; amending MDNY's Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws; changing the methodology for funding hospital risk pools; issuing additional stock; the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of MDNY's assets; merger or consolidation; dissolution; entering a new line of business; borrowing or making other financial arrangements, including any contracts, in excess of $1 million. If any of these matters "adversely effect" the providers of services in any county, the vote of the Class A and Class B Directors must be unanimous. MDNY's By-laws, as amended, provide that MDNY's board of directors shall consist of 12 members, comprised of the following: (i) six Class A Directors; (ii) three Class B Director; and (iii) three members elected by the holders of both the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock voting together as a class, all of whom shall be representatives of enrollees of the health maintenance organization operated by MDNY. The MDNY By-laws provide that the MDNY board of directors may create: (i) an Operations Committee comprised of three Class A Directors and two Class B Directors and up to three other individuals as appointed by the board; (ii) a Hospital Selection Committee, comprised of three Class A Directors and three Class B Directors; and (iii) a Medical Delivery Committee comprised of four Class A Directors and two Class B Directors. According to the New York State Insurance Department ("NSYID") Report on Examination of The MDNY Healthcare, Inc. as of June 30, 2000 dated April 2, 2001 and revised July 31, 2002 (the "NYSID Final Report"), the composition of MDNY's Board of Directors does not comply with Part 98-1.11(f) of the Administrative Rules and Regulations of the New York State Department of Health, which requires that at least 20% of MDNY's directors must be enrollees of MDNY. The NYSID Final Report recommends that the requisite number of "enrollee representatives" be elected to MDNY's Board of Directors. The Corporation and CHNLI, as MDNY's shareholders, have approved amendments to MDNY's Certificate of Incorporation and by-laws that would change the composition and number of MDNY's Directors so as to include the requisite number of enrollee representatives. 13 The Company, CHNLI and MDNY are party to a Shareholders Agreement dated December 11, 1995, which provides, among other things, for certain restrictions on the transfer of stock in MDNY, including certain rights of first refusal in connection with any such proposed transfer or deemed transfer. Five directors of the Company (Drs. Caravella, Gallo, Kolker, Koreen and Jason) serve as directors of MDNY. Drs. Caravella, Jason and Koreen are, respectively, President, Vice President and Secretary of MDNY. Dr. Perrone, a director of the Company, is the Chief Medical Officer of MDNY. Six directors of the Company (Drs. Caravella, Gallo, Jason, Perrone, Romano and Wohlberg) serve as directors of Island IPA, of which Dr. Romano is also President.. One director of the Company (Dr. Koreen) serves as a director of Island Behavioral Health Association IPA, Inc. Each of such directors of the Company earned fees for medical services rendered as a participating provider to one of the IPAs during 2005. Concetta Pryor, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, is also the Chief Financial Officer and Vice-President-Finance of MDNY. Paul Accardi, the Company's Executive Vice President is also the Chief Executive Officer of MDNY. With respect to years prior to 2001, MDNY was contractually obligated to pay a capitated amount to Island IPA for covered services provided by participating providers. Through 2001, however, MDNY continued to pay medical claims to Island IPA relating to claims with dates of service prior to January 1, 2001 in excess of capitated amounts for years prior to 2001. These payments resulted in medical claim obligations due by Island IPA to providers of approximately $22.2 million, reflected in MDNY's financial statements as payments in excess of capitation as of December 31, 2002 (the "Island Debt"). With NYSID's approval, MDNY, Island IPA and CHSLI, on behalf of five catholic hospitals that act as providers to MDNY (the "Hospitals"), entered into a Recovery and Subordination Agreement (the "Recovery and Subordination Agreement"), dated July 12, 2001 and effective January 1, 2002. The Recovery and Subordination Agreement provides, among other things, as follows: (i) Island IPA is required to pay the Island Debt pursuant to a Repayment Plan whereby Island IPA is obligated to withhold, and remit to MDNY, 5% of all payments due to Island IPA participating providers (the "IPA Withhold"), MDNY will make claims payments to Island IPA or its participating providers on a fee-for-service basis, Island IPA is required to pay MDNY a $1.50 per member per month network access fee, and Island IPA is required to pay to MDNY the net revenue it receives from sources other than MDNY; (ii) until the Island Debt is repaid, Island IPA, Island IPA's participating providers and the Hospitals agree (a), in the event that MDNY becomes insolvent (pursuant to a court approved order or admits its inability to pay its debts), to subordinate their rights to payment by MDNY of outstanding claims (including IBNR) to all other outstanding claims in an amount equal to the amount of the then outstanding Island Debt, and (b) that, after payment of third party claims, the claims of Island IPA and its providers will be subordinated to the claims of the Hospitals; and (iii) the amount of the Island Debt outstanding from time to time will be carried on the financial statements of MDNY as an admitted asset. The aggregate amount owed by MDNY to the subordinating parties in the form of medical claims payable, and the amount of the Island Debt, was approximately $14million net of an allowance of $3,000,000 as of December 31, 2005. The IPA Withhold was increased to 10% effective January 1, 2006. In 1997, with the approval of NYSID, MDNY obtained a loan from CHNLI that has a balance at December 31, 2005 of approximately $2.1million (including accrued interest). Interest under this note accrues at the prime rate and is payable quarterly commencing April 1, 1998. The entire principal balance plus accrued interest is due in full subject to prior approval by NYSID. In 1998, with the approval of NYSID, MDNY obtained a $1 million loan from LIPH, LLC that has a balance as of December 31, 2005 of approximately $1.5million (including accrued interest). Interest under this note accrues at the prime rate and is payable quarterly commencing October 1, 1998. The entire principal balance plus accrued interest was due on July 1, 1999, but payment is subject to prior approval by the NYSID. In April 1999, MDNY and LIPH, LLC amended the loan agreement to provide LIPH, LLC with the right to convert the note into equity in MDNY, and, in August 1999, MDNY's Board authorized the conversion of the outstanding balance of the LIPH, LLC note into shares of MDNY common stock. The note has not been converted as MDNY has not received approval from NYSID for the conversion. Repayment of the principal and payment of accrued 14 interest on the LIPH, LLC note and the CHSLI note may be made only out of the free and divisible surplus of MDNY and all payments are subject to NYSID approval. MDNY is subject to the New York Women's Health and Wellness Act, which, as of January 1, 2003, obligates MDNY to provide contraceptive drugs and devices to its members, in conflict with the ethical policies of the Diocese of Rockville Centre (the "Diocese"), to which CHNLI and CHSLI are subject. In light of this conflict, the Diocese allowed its subscriber contract with MDNY to expire on December 31, 2004 resulting in the loss of approximately 3,800 members. Catholic Health Services of Long Island, Inc. ("CHSLI"), an affiliate of CHNLI, on behalf of five catholic hospitals that act as providers to MDNY (the "Hospitals"), did not renew the respective Hospital subscriber contracts with MDNY upon expiration thereof on January 1, 2006. At December 31, 2005, a total of 6,135 members in MDNY were enrolled from CHSLI. Premiums from the Hospitals represented approximately 20% for 2005 and premiums from the Hospitals and the Diocese represented 28% of total premiums earned by MDNY during 2004. The expiration of MDNY's subscriber contracts with the Hospitals on January 1, 2006 and the resulting loss of business will have a material adverse effect on MDNY's business and financial The Company, MDNY and CHNLI entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of December 31, 2004 so as to allow CHNLI to exit as an MDNY shareholder. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, LIPH will purchase from CHNLI all shares of Class B common stock of MDNY owned by CHNLI, and CHNLI will contribute to the capital of MDNY, and for cancellation, a Subordinated Note dated December 18, 1997 made by MDNY in favor of CHNLI in the original principal amount of $1.4 million, together with all interest accrued thereon (the "Section 1307 Contribution"). Upon the closing of such purchase, LIPH will be the sole stockholder of MDNY The Company, MDNY and CHNLI have entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of December 31, 2004. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company will purchase from CHNLI all shares of Class B common stock of MDNY owned by CHNLI, and CHNLI will contribute to the capital of MDNY, and for cancellation, a Subordinated Note dated December 18, 1997 made by MDNY in favor of CHNLI in the original principal amount of $1.4 million, together with all interest accrued thereon (the "Section 1307 Contribution"). Upon the closing of such purchase, the Company will be the sole stockholder of MDNY. In consideration of the sale, assignment and transfer of the Class B Shares and of the Section 1307 Contribution, the Company will pay CHNLI a closing payment of $10.00. As additional consideration, the Company will pay to CHNLI the percentage specified below of the net amount of cash and the fair market value of all securities and other property paid by an acquiror and received by LIPH in respect of its equity interest in MDNY upon any sale to a third party by LIPH of its stock in MDNY or of all or substantially all of MDNY's business (through a sale of stock or assets, or a merger, consolidation or similar transaction) that is consummated prior to December 31 of the year specified below (or with respect to calendar year 2008, certain transactions consummated after December 31, 2008), but not to exceed $4.5 million in the aggregate (the amount of CHNLI's equity investment in MDNY): Percentage of Sale Proceeds Year --------------------------- ---- 33.3% 2005 25.0% 2006 20.0% 2007 15.0% 2008 Conditions to closing under the Stock Purchase Agreement include: (i) the termination of the Shareholders Agreement and the Stock Subscription and Purchase Agreement, each dated as of October 11, 1995, between the Company, MDNY and CHNLI, as amended, (ii) execution and delivery of mutual releases by CHNLI, the Diocese and CHSLI, on the one hand, and MDNY and the Company, on the other hand, from all claims arising through the closing date, except for claims arising under the Agreement and certain other agreements in effect among the releasing parties as of the closing date, (iii) resignation of the four MDNY directors designated by CHNLI, as directors and officers of MDNY, (iv) payment in full of all premiums then 15 payable under the MDNY Group Applications effective as of December 31, 2002 between MDNY and each of the Diocese and CHSLI, as agent for five affiliated Catholic Hospitals ("Hospitals"); (v) no premiums under such Group Applications being more than 30 days past due; (vi) execution and delivery of an agreement whereby the Hospitals and certain related Catholic nursing homes agree to pay the same penalties and interest on past due premiums and other amounts payable by them to MDNY as those applicable under current regulations to late payments due from MDNY to the Hospitals; (viii) consent by each of NYSID (which granted consent in March 2005), the New York Department of Health, the Attorney General of the State of New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York to the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; and (ix) payment in full of all payments due and owing by MDNY to the Hospitals for services rendered to the extent required by the provider agreements between MDNY and the Hospitals, and no such payments, with respect to clean claims, being more than 45 days past due. Upon closing of the purchase of the Class B shares, the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of MDNY, and the composition of MDNY's Board of Directors, will be modified to reflect, among other things, that CHNLI is no longer a shareholder in MDNY and the composition and number of MDNY's Directors will be changed to include the requisite number of enrollee representatives. The Stock Purchase Agreement remains subject to approval by the Attorney General of the State of New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York.. If such approval is granted, it is anticipated that the closing under the Stock Purchase Agreement would occur concurrently with and be contingent on the closing of an investment in and restructuring of MDNY, and would require the renegotiation of certain closing conditions under the Stock Purchase Agreement. Commencing with September 2004, MDNY pays to each of Salvatore Caravella, M.D., the President and a Director of MDNY, and Rosario Romano, M.D., President of Island IPA and a Director of LIPH, $5,000 per month in consideration of their respective participation in reviewing with other officers and employees MDNY's utilization management, credentialing and operations processes. Commencing in January 2001, the MDNY Board approved compensation to Dr. Koreen for behavioral health consulting services. Dr. Koreen was paid an annual salary of $52,250 and $52,400 for the year ended 2005 and 2004 respectively. Commencing with September 2004, MDNY pays to Paul Kolker, M.D., a Director of MDNY and President and Chairman of the Board of the Company, $5,000 per month in consideration of Dr. Kolker's participation in negotiations regarding potential strategic transactions by MDNY (including without limitation, equity investments in MDNY by third parties, the disposition of the assets or stock of MDNY and related commercial transactions (collectively, "Strategic Transactions")), as well as negotiations among MDNY, the Company, CHNLI, the Diocese and CHSLI regarding CHNLI's withdrawal as a shareholder in MDNY and MDNY's contractual relationships with CHSLI and the Diocese (collectively "Shareholder Transactions"). In October 2004, MDNY paid to Dr. Kolker the sum of $3,871.24 per month retroactive to June 2002 (the month Dr. Kolker became President and Chairman of the Company) by means of a lump sum payment in the aggregate amount of $89,038 in consideration of Dr. Kolker's participation from and after June 2002 in negotiations regarding potential Strategic Transactions and Shareholder Transactions.
