Exhibit 99.3
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of A.D.A.M., Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of A.D.A.M., Inc. as of December 31,
2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity, and cash flows for
the year then ended. The Companys management is responsible for these financial statements. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control
over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the companys internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our 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 A.D.A.M., Inc. as of December 31, 2010, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Business
A.D.A.M., Inc. primarily provides online information and technology solutions for
employers, benefits brokers, healthcare organizations and online media companies. Our solutions are
divided into two segments:
| Health information and health decision support tools that we market to healthcare organizations, online media companies, and Internet search and technology firms; and |
| Benefits communication, online benefit enrollment, decision support, human resources productivity, and benefits broker applications that we market to commercial benefits brokers in the small to midsize employer market. |
Our solutions are delivered through a Software as a Service-type model (SaaS)
that provides rapid and efficient deployment of our products and allows us to integrate third party
products and services that we monetize across our network of clients and end users.
For the end users of our solutionsconsumers, employees, patients, and health
plan membersour products and services help people to better understand their health, and the
benefits plans their employers provide, and make well informed decisions about their healthcare and
benefits selections. In addition, we help people understand the relationship between their benefits
and the costs associated with them. This connection between financial understanding and benefits
choice and use of benefits is increasingly important as consumers are assuming more of the
financial responsibilities for their healthcare. For our brokers and employer clients, our
solutions provide the platform necessary to communicate, educate and enroll in benefits plans. For
our healthcare and consumer health clients, our health information platform provides a broad
portfolio of health reference products designed to promote services, build site traffic, and aid in
the management of healthcare.
In addition to our health information and benefits solutions, we also market a
series of anatomy and physiology products for the K-12 and undergraduate educational market.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States 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 net revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
We derive revenues from the following sources: (1) electronically delivered
software, which includes software license and post contract customer support (PCS) revenue, (2)
hosted software, which includes software license, hosting and PCS revenue, (3) professional
services and (4) product sales. We recognize revenue when: (1) persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the fee is fixed or
determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. When a contract includes multiple
elements, such as software and services, the entire fee is allocated to each respective element
based on vendor specific objective evidence of fair value, and recognized when the revenue criteria
for each element is met.
Electronically delivered software, which includes software license and PCS
revenue, is recognized ratably over the term of the license agreement. For software revenue
arrangements in which we sell through a reseller, we recognize revenue only after an agreement has
been finalized between the customer and our authorized reseller and the content has been delivered
to the customer by the reseller.
Hosted software, which includes software license, hosting and PCS revenue is
recognized ratably over the term of the license agreement, which matches the service that is being
provided.
F-5
Professional service revenues are generally recognized upon completion and
acceptance by the customer. For revenue arrangements in which we sell through a reseller, we
recognize revenue only after an agreement has been finalized between the customer and our
authorized reseller and the content has been delivered to the customer by the reseller.
Product sales revenues are generally recognized at the time title passes to
customers, distributors or resellers. In 2007, we adopted a return policy related to education
product for a limited group of customers. The policy allows for the return of certain sellable
product within 60 days of the invoice date.
Concentration of sales and credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk
consist primarily of trade receivables. For the year ended December 31, 2010, no single customer
accounted for more than 10% of net revenues. The Company had one customer that accounted for 19%
of total customer receivables at December 31, 2010.
A.D.A.M. has certain financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
significant concentrations of credit risk which consist principally of cash and cash equivalents,
short term investments and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained in
short-term money market accounts. Our bank accounts are currently covered by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation, (the FDIC) up to the insured limits. The FDIC raised the coverage amount on normal checking and
money market accounts to $250,000, until December 31, 2013. We maintain a money market balance
below this $250,000 limit.
Fair value of financial instruments
Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
(Level 1) observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are
accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
(Level 2) quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either
directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
(Level 3) prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the
fair value measurement and unobservable, due to little or no market data, which requires us to
develop our own assumptions.
The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of each class of
financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:
| Notes payable and debt instruments. For those debt instruments with adjustable interest rates, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. For debt instruments with fixed interest rates, the fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates at which similar debt could be obtained. |
The carrying value of our current and long-term maturities of capital lease obligations and
debt do not vary materially from fair value at December 31, 2010.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and deposits and highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.
Investment in companies
Investments in companies where we own less than 20% are accounted for under the
cost method.
Preferred Stock
As a result of the shareholder rights plan adopted on June 29, 2009, the Company
authorized 100,000 shares of $0.01 par value Series B Preferred Stock in the year ended December
31, 2009. There were no additional shares of preferred stock authorized in the year ended December
31, 2010. No shares of preferred stock had been issued or were outstanding as of December 31, 2010.
The shareholder rights plan is described in further detail in Note 11 of the notes to our financial
statements.
F-6
Treasury Stock
All treasury stock transactions are recorded at cost.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and recorded in sales and marketing
expenses in the Statement of Operations. Advertising expense was $91,000 in 2010.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from
outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to
earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of the current status of
individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after management has performed reasonable
collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to
accounts receivable. We grant credit to our customers without requiring collateral. The amount of
accounting loss for which we are at risk in these unsecured accounts receivable is limited to their
carrying value.
Inventories
Inventories consist principally of computer software media, books and related
shipping materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the
first-in, first-out method. The valuation of inventory requires the Company to estimate net
realizable value. Inventory is written down for estimated obsolescence or to the lesser of cost or
market value.
Deferred financing costs
Costs related to obtaining debt financing are capitalized and amortized over the
term of the related debt using the effective interest method. When a loan is paid in full, any
unamortized financing costs are removed from the related accounts and charged to interest in the
period.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated
useful lives using the straight-line method. Property and equipment held under capital leases and
leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful
life of the related asset. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of and the related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited
or charged to income. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets consist of purchased intellectual content, purchased customer
contracts, purchased customer relationships, capitalized software product and content development
costs to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, and capitalized software development costs for
internal use software.
Capitalized software product and content development costs to be sold, leased or
otherwise marketed consist of development costs incurred for applications after technological
feasibility has been established. These costs consist principally of salaries and certain other
expenses directly related to the development and modifications of software products and content.
Amortization of capitalized software product and content development costs is provided at the
greater of the ratio of current product revenue to the total of current and anticipated product
revenue or on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic life of the software, generally two
years.
Capitalized software development costs for internal use software consists of costs
of developing applications or the purchase of software for internal use. Capitalized costs are
amortized over their estimated useful life, generally three years.
F-7
Impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill
Impairment of long-lived assets is evaluated, including property and equipment and
intangible assets with finite lives, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future
undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is
recognized.
Goodwill is evaluated annually or more often if an event occurs or circumstances
change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of an asset group below its carrying
value. These events or circumstances would include a significant change in stock price, business
climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, sale or disposition of a
significant portion of the business or other factors. The carrying value of goodwill is evaluated
based on market capitalization.
Product and content development expenditures
Product and content development expenditures include costs incurred in the
development, enhancement and maintenance of our content and technology. These costs have been
charged to expense as incurred.
Income taxes
Deferred income taxes arise from the temporary differences in the recognition of income and
expenses for tax purposes. A valuation allowance is established when we believe that it is more
likely than not that some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Sales Tax
We present our revenues net of sales tax in our Statement of Operations. When invoicing for
sales tax, we increase accounts receivable and increase sales taxes payable. If the receivable
isnt collected, we decrease accounts receivable and increase bad debt expense in general and
administrative expenses.
New accounting standards to be adopted
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-13,
Revenue Recognition: Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. This authoritative guidance revises
the current accounting treatment to specifically address how to determine whether an arrangement
involving multiple deliverables contains more than one unit of accounting. This guidance is
applicable to revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified during our first fiscal year
that begins after June 15, 2010. The guidance may be applied either prospectively from the
beginning of the fiscal year for new or materially modified arrangements or retrospectively. We are
currently evaluating this authoritative guidance to determine any potential impact that it may have
on our financial results.
Stock-based employee compensation
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date based on the fair value of
the award, and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the employees requisite
service period.
2. Long-term debt
In conjunction with the acquisition of OnlineBenefits in 2006, we entered into a
credit agreement (the 2006 Credit Agreement) with Capital Source Finance LLC (Capital Source).
The 2006 Credit Agreement provided for a revolving credit facility of up to $2,000,000, which would
have matured in August 2011, a $20,000,000 term loan, which would have matured in June 2011, and a
$5,000,000 convertible note (the Convertible Note), which would have matured in August 2011. At
the time of each maturity, all outstanding amounts and letters of credit for the related debt would
have been due and payable.
In connection with the 2006 Credit Agreement, we entered into a Conversion and
Registration Rights Agreement dated as of August 14, 2006, which specifies terms applicable to the
conversion of the convertible note and provides Capital Source with certain registration rights
with respect to the shares issuable on conversion of the Convertible Note.
F-8
All outstanding obligations under the 2006 Credit Agreement were repaid in full
and the agreement was terminated on December 31, 2008. In connection with the
termination of the 2006 Credit Agreement and as consideration for Capital Sources agreement to the
prepayment of the Convertible Note, which we were not otherwise able to prepay, we issued a warrant
to an affiliate of Capital Source to purchase up to 411,667 shares of our common stock at a price
of $3.65 per share, to replace the equity component of the Convertible Note. This warrant was
issued in a transaction not involving a public offering pursuant to the exemption provided under
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). All of the warrants
were exercised in October 2010, resulting in the net issuance of 190,035 shares. The shares of our
common stock issued upon exercise of the warrant have not been registered under the Securities Act
and may not be offered or sold in the United States in the absence of an effective registration
statement or exemption from the registration requirements.
On December 31, 2008, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the 2008
Loan Agreement) with RBC Bank (USA) (RBC Bank). The credit facility under the 2008 Loan
Agreement consisted of a $3,000,000 revolving line of credit, a $10,000,000 term loan facility and
a letter of credit facility.
Loans made under the 2008 Loan Agreement were secured by a first lien security
interest on all assets, including our intellectual property.
All amounts outstanding under this credit facility were fully repaid during 2010.
We incurred $92,000 in financing fees related to the 2008 Loan Agreement. This
amount was deferred and was amortized over the 36-month term of the loan until December 3, 2010,
when we paid off the remaining balance of the loan and wrote-off the balance of unamortized
financing fees.

6. Goodwill
Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but
rather are tested for impairment at least annually.
Based on our annual goodwill evaluation as of November 1, 2010, we deemed that
goodwill was not impaired. We concluded that the market capitalization approach was the most
representative method for determining the fair value of the reporting unit. Our market
capitalization was calculated by using value implied to our stock by our pending merger with Ebix,
Inc. Since this merger was completed in February 2011, there remains no uncertainty to this
valuation. See Note 17.

In periodically assessing the Companys ability to realize deferred tax assets,
management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of our deferred
tax assets will be realized. Management analyzes several factors, including the amount and timing
of the scheduled expiration and reversals of our net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) and
deferred tax items, as well as potential generation of future taxable income over the periods for
which the NOLs are applicable. Certain estimates used in this analysis are based on the current
beliefs and expectations of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently
available to, management. Although it is the belief that the expectations reflected in these
estimates are based upon reasonable assumptions, the Company cannot give assurance that actual
results will not differ materially from these expectations. We periodically evaluate the deferred
tax positions and valuation allowances.
At December 31, 2010 the Company had $9,034,000 of net operating losses attributable to tax
deductions for the exercise of employee stock options in excess of related compensation expense
recorded in the financial statements. The Company will record the benefit of the utilization of
these net operating losses to additional paid-in capital when these net operating losses are
realized.
The Companys valuation allowance was $9,286,000 as of December 31, 2010.
At December 31, 2010, the Company had NOL and R&D credit carryforwards available for tax
purposes of $41,041,000 and $932,000, respectively, which will expire on December 31 in years 2011
through 2022 and 2011 through 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has capital
loss carryforwards of $310,000 of which $310,000 will expire on December 31, 2013. At December 31,
2010 we also have AMT credit carryforwards available of $112,000 which do not have an expiration
date.
The Company acquired $29,510,000 of NOL carryforwards as a result of the acquisition of
OnlineBenefits in August 2006. Internal Revenue Code Section (IRC) 382 limits the utilization of
NOL carryforwards when a change in ownership, as defined by the Internal Revenue Service, occurs.
The acquisition of OnlineBenefits resulted in ownership change within the meaning of IRC 382. Of
the total $29,510,000 NOLs acquired from OnlineBenefits, the NOLs estimated to be available for use after the application of the IRC 382 limitation is
approximately $26,300,000. The Company continues to track and monitor ownership changes as defined
by IRC 382 to identify any future limitations on the use of NOLs to offset tax liability. As of
December 31, 2010, no additional ownership changes have been identified. However, if the company
were to incur any future 382 limitations its usage of NOLs to offset income tax liabilities could
be limited.
NOL carryforwards expiring over the next five years are as follows (in thousands):

There are no material unrecognized tax benefits and related tax liabilities at December
31, 2010. Penalties related to uncertain tax positions would be recorded as a component of general
and administrative expenses. Interest relating to uncertain tax positions would be recorded as a
component of interest expense.
The tax years 2007 to 2010 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to
which we are subject. However, upon utilization of the NOL and R&D credit carry forward tax
benefits in future tax returns, the related tax benefit for the period in which the benefit arose
is subject to examination.
9. Stock-based Compensation
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on fair value of the award,
and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the employees requisite service
period.
In 2002, our Board of Directors and shareholders approved the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, under
which 1,500,000 shares of common stock were reserved pursuant to the grant of incentive or
non-qualified stock options to full-time employees and key persons. Under this plan, a number of
additional shares are reserved annually. This number is 3% of the number of shares of stock
outstanding on January 1 of each year, not to exceed 250,000 shares annually. Options are granted
at an exercise price as determined by A.D.A.M.s Board of Directors, which may not be less than the
fair market value of our common stock at the date of the grant, and the options generally vest
ratably over a three-year period. Options granted under this plan generally expire ten years from
the date of grant.
As of December 31, 2010, there were options outstanding to purchase a total of 578,837 shares
of our common stock under our 2002 Stock Incentive Plan and our 1992 Option Plan with an aggregate
intrinsic value of $1,551,169. Under the 1992 Option Plan, 4,500,000 shares of common stock were
reserved and no additional options may be granted under the 1992 Plan. At December 31, 2010, there
were approximately 463,937 shares available for future option grants under the 2002 Stock Incentive
Plan.
Stock Options
Options are granted at an exercise price as determined by our Board of Directors, which may
not be less than the fair market value of our common stock at the date of the grant, and the
options generally vest ratably over a three-year service period. Options granted under this plan
generally expire ten years from the date of the grant. Upon exercise of options, stock is issued
from our authorized and unissued shares of common stock. We use the Black-Scholes method (which
models the value over time of financial instruments) to estimate the fair value at the grant date
of the options. The Black-Scholes method uses several assumptions to value an option. The following
assumptions were used:
| Expected Dividend Yieldbecause we do not currently pay dividends or expect to pay dividends in the near future, the expected dividend yield is zero; |
| Expected Volatility in Stock Pricereflects the historical change in our stock price over the expected term of the stock option; |
| Risk-free Interest Ratereflects the average rate on a United States Treasury bond with maturity equal to the expected term of the option; and |
| Expected Life of Stock Awardsis based on historical experience that was modified based on expected future changes. |

The Company recorded $252,000 of stock-based compensation expense for the year ended
December 31, 2010, related to employee stock options. We expect to incur approximately $364,000 of
expense over a weighted average of 2.1 years for all unvested options outstanding at December 31,
2010.
The following table summarizes stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2010:

value of stock options vesting during the year ended December 31, 2010 was $344,351.
Restricted Stock Awards
The fair value of restricted stock awards is the market value of the stock on the date of
grant.

10. Benefit Plan
In 1995, the Company adopted a defined contribution plan that covers all full-time eligible
employees of the Company. The plan allows eligible employees to contribute any amount of their
pre-tax annual compensation up to the statutory limit prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service.
The Company matches 75% of the first 4% contribution per participant on an annual basis. The
Company contributed approximately $193,000 to the plan for the year ended December 31, 2010.
11. Shareholder Rights Plan
On June 29, 2009, our Board of Directors adopted a shareholder rights plan designed to protect
our shareholders against abusive takeover attempts and tactics. The rights plan operates to dilute
the interests of any person or group attempting to take control of the Company if the attempt is
not deemed by our Board of Directors to be in the best interests of our shareholders. Under the
rights agreement, shareholders of record at the close of business on July 31, 2009 will receive one
share purchase right for each share of A.D.A.M. common stock held on that date. The Rights, which
will initially trade with the Companys common stock, represent the right to purchase one
one-thousandth of a share of Series B Preferred Stock at $12.00 per Right that becomes exercisable
when a person or group acquires 15% or more of A.D.A.M.s common stock without prior Board of
Directors approval. In that event, the Rights permit A.D.A.M. shareholders, other than the
acquiror, to purchase A.D.A.M. common stock having a market value of twice the exercise price of
the Rights, in lieu of the Preferred Stock. Alternatively, when the Rights become exercisable, the
Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of one share of A.D.A.M. common stock in exchange for
each Right that is then exercisable. In addition, in the event of certain business combinations,
the Rights permit the purchase of the common stock of an acquiror at a 50% discount. Rights held by
the acquiror will become null and void in each case. Prior to a person or group acquiring 15%, the
Rights can be redeemed for $0.01 each by action of A.D.A.M.s Board of Directors. The Rights will
expire on June 29, 2019, unless earlier redeemed, exchanged or amended by the Board.
12. Related Party Transactions
Investment with BeBetter Networks, Inc.
At December 31, 2010, the Company had a 2% investment in BeBetter Networks, Inc. (BeBetter).
As of December 31, 2010, the Chairman of the Board of Directors held an approximate 2% voting
interest in this company. The investment has been accounted for under the cost method, as the
Company has less than a 20% ownership and does not exercise significant influence over the
investee.
At December 31, 2010, the carrying value of the investment in BeBetter was $0. The Company has
no plans to make additional investments in BeBetter in the future.
Investment with ThePort Network, Inc.
As of November 24, 2008, ThePort Network, Inc. (ThePort) closed a $4,100,000 Preferred Stock
financing designated Series B Preferred Stock at $0.165 per share, including investment by our
chairman. The Chairman of our Board of Directors also currently serves as the Chairman of the Board
of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of ThePort.
As a result of the financing, at December 31, 2010, we held an approximate 3% voting
interest in ThePort. The Chairman of our Board of Directors held an approximate 22% voting interest
in ThePort at December 31, 2010 and held a convertible note from ThePort in the amount of
approximately $705,000 at December 31, 2010. Two of the other directors of A.D.A.M. also own equity
interests in ThePort. Historically ThePort was accounted for under the equity method. The financing
in 2008 diluted our voting interest in ThePort, therefore for 2008 and going forward, the Company
has accounted for this investment under the cost method.
As of September 10, 2008, ThePort converted its outstanding notes into a Preferred Stock
designated Series A Preferred Stock at $0.30 per share, including notes held by our chairman. As
part of the conversion, A.D.A.M. exchanged its prior Series A Preferred Stock, which had been
purchased at $0.80 per share, for the new Series A Preferred Stock at $0.30 per share.
At December 31, 2010, the carrying value of the investment in ThePort was $0. The Company has
not adjusted its investment below zero for the Companys share of ThePorts losses since the
Company has not provided or committed to provide any additional financial support to ThePort.

13. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company leases office space and equipment under non-cancelable lease agreements expiring
on various dates through 2019 as well as capital lease commitments for certain equipment. Certain
of these leases contain escalation clauses, which has resulted in the recording of a $646,000
deferred rent liability balance at December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, future minimum rentals
for noncancelable leases with terms in excess of one year were as follows (in thousands):

Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $811,000 including space that was
sublet. A.D.A.M.s headquarters are located in approximately 24,000 square feet of leased office
space in Atlanta, Georgia. The space is leased for a term ending in April 2019, with an option to
renew for an additional 5-year term.
There is additional leased office space of 36,000 square feet in Uniondale, New York. The
space is leased for a term ending in June 2011, for an amount of $131,000 per month. In conjunction
with the purchase of OnlineBenefits in 2006, the difference between the cost of unused components
of the Companys Uniondale lease and the related income from the sublease contracts, present
valued, was recorded as a liability. This liability was reduced due to payments, offset by
increased costs of sublease termination and replacement. At December 31, 2010, the liability was
$820,000 which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses. This liability is included in
the Facility Consolidation Program discussed in Note 14 below.
The Company indemnifies customers from third party claims of intellectual property
infringement relating to the use of our products. Historically, costs related to this guarantee
have not been significant and the Company is unable to estimate the potential impact of this
guarantee on future results of operations.

In 2006, we acquired office space in NY with the acquisition of Online Benefits. Part of this
office space was being sublet at a loss. The remaining loss on this first sublease at December 31,
2007 was $1,041,000.
In the fourth quarter 2008, we established a Facility Consolidation Program for the purpose of
closing the NY office and consolidating operations in our GA office. The costs associated with this
program included severance, fixed asset write-offs, contract and other office shut-down costs of
$985,000. Additionally, the Facility Consolidation Program led to a second sublease for the
remaining office space. The second sublease loss was recorded at fair value when the right to use
the space ceased. The second sublease loss was made up of a $1,417,000 liability offset by a
previously existing deferred rent liability of $209,000. This $1,417,000 liability recorded at the
date of restructuring was based primarily on the present value of the net cash flows from the
future rental payments of $2,016,000 less estimated second sublease rental income of $469,000.
During the second quarter of 2009, due to the change in the expected sublease rental income
from both of these office spaces as a result of the current real estate market conditions, we
revised our estimated loss and expensed an additional $1,408,000 of restructuring costs.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, we paid $1,546,000 related to these costs.
We anticipate the remaining costs will be paid over the next 6 months.
15. Operating segments
Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information
is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker, or decision-making
group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. We operate in one
reportable segment. We sell a portfolio of products related to health content solutions and
broker/ employer solutions. We consider the health content products and broker/ employer products
to be two operating segments which aggregate into one reportable segment. Our SaaS model allows us
to manage and deploy these products in a similar manner to similar customers. Our chief operating
decision-maker is our Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer reviews financial
information by products when making decisions for allocating resources and evaluating financial
performance. Periodic decisions may be made separately for the two solution groups due to timing of
customer strategies, product releases, market conditions, acquisitions, or staffing resources, but
the common long term growth outlook for each segment remains constant.
In determining that we have one reportable segment, we viewed both health content and broker/
employer products as sharing similar economic characteristics for long term growth. Historical
product margins for both product segments have been in the 70-90% range. All products are
distributed over a similar platform with low incremental costs so we expect margins to remain
within the 70-90% range. The health content product which can be sold separately is also sold as
an imbedded product within our broker/ employer product. As the products continue to be more
intertwined, the margins for both are expected to converge and the allocation of costs related to
each will not be as relevant.
16. Geographic Information
The Company sells products through agreements which grant territorial rights to international
and domestic distributors. During the year ended December 31, 2010, net revenues from international
sales were approximately $307,000. Disclosed in the table below is geographic information for each
country that comprised greater than one percent of our total revenues for fiscal year 2010 (in

On February 7, 2011 the Company closed its merger with a wholly owned subsidiary of Ebix, Inc.
(Ebix). Under the terms of the merger agreement, the Companys shareholders received, at a fixed
exchange ratio, 0.3122 shares of Ebix common stock for every share of the Companys common stock.
Ebix issued approximately 3,650,914 shares of Ebix common stock pursuant to the merger. In addition
Ebix paid approximately $944 thousand in cash for the Companys unexercised stock options.
