                           HEALTH FITNESS CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America for interim financial information. They should be read in conjunction
with the annual financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. In the opinion of management,
the interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for the fair presentation of
the results for interim periods presented. Operating results for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for the year ending December 31, 2004.


NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business - Health Fitness Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the
Company) provide fitness and wellness management services and programs to
corporations, hospitals, communities and universities located in the United
States and Canada. Fitness and wellness management services include the
development, marketing and management of corporate, hospital, community and
university based fitness centers, injury prevention and work-injury management
consulting, and on-site physical therapy. Programs include wellness and health
programs for individual customers, including health risk assessments, nutrition
and weight loss programs, smoking cessation, massage therapy, back care and
ergonomic injury prevention.

Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash - The Company maintains cash balances at several financial institutions,
and at times, such balances exceed insured limits. The Company has not
experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any
significant credit risk on cash.

At June 30, 2004, the Company had cash overdrafts of $11,541 representing checks
written in excess of funds deposited, which are included in accounts payable for
financial statement presentation.

Trade and Other Accounts Receivable - Trade and other accounts receivable
represent amounts due from companies and individuals for services and products.
The Company grants credit to customers in the ordinary course of business, but
generally does not require collateral or any other security to support amounts
due. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers. The Company
determines its allowance for discounts and doubtful accounts by considering a
number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are
past due, the Company's previous loss history, the customer's current ability to
pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and
the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they
become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivable are
credited to the allowance. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade
receivables are limited due to the large number of customers and their
geographic dispersion.

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation
and amortization are computed using both straight-line and accelerated methods
over the useful lives of the assets.

Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price and related
costs over the fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. The carrying
value of goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual
basis or when factors indicating impairment are present. Projected discounted
cash flows are used in assessing these assets.


                                       6

Intangible Assets - The Company's intangible assets include customer contracts,
trademark, and deferred financing costs and are amortized on a straight-line
basis. Customer contracts represent the fair value assigned to acquired
management contracts and are amortized over the remaining life of the contracts,
approximately 25-35 months. Trademark represents the value assigned to an
acquired trademark and is amortized over a period of five years. Deferred
financing costs are amortized over the term of the related credit agreement.

Cash Held In Escrow - Cash held in escrow represents the funds remaining after
payment of the purchase price for the Company's acquisition. Such funds will
remain in escrow until all parties subject to the escrow agreement agree that
all conditions related to the acquisition have been satisfied. At that time, any
funds remaining in escrow will be used to pay down the Company's long-term
obligations.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized at the time the service is provided
to the customer. For annual contracts, monthly amounts are recognized ratably
over the term of the contract. Certain services provided to the customer may
vary on a periodic basis and are invoiced to the customer in arrears. The
revenues relating to theses services are estimated in the month that the service
is performed.

Amounts received from customers in advance of providing the services of the
contract are treated as deferred revenue and recognized when the services are
provided.

The Company has contracts with third-parties to provide ancillary services in
connection with their fitness and wellness management services and programs.
Under such arrangements the third-parties invoice and receive payments from the
Company based on transactions with the ultimate customer. The Company does not
recognize revenues related to such transactions as the ultimate customer assumes
the risk and rewards of the contract and the amounts billed to the customer are
either at cost or with a fixed markup.

Comprehensive Income - Comprehensive income represents net earnings adjusted for
foreign currency translation adjustments. Total comprehensive income was
$804,042 and $485,313 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

Net Earnings Per Common Share - Basic net earnings per common share is computed
by dividing net earnings by the number of weighted average common shares
outstanding. Diluted net earnings per common share is computed by dividing net
earnings plus dividends to preferred shareholders by the number of weighted
average common shares outstanding, and common share equivalents relating to
stock options and stock warrants, when dilutive.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments - Due to their short-term nature, the
carrying value of the Company's current financial assets and liabilities
approximates their fair values. The fair value of long-term obligations, if
recalculated based on current interest rates, would not significantly differ
from the recorded amounts.

Use of Estimates - Preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.


NOTE 3. PURCHASE OF ASSETS

On December 8, 2003 (the "Effective Date"), the Company purchased the business
assets of the Health & Fitness Services Business of Johnson & Johnson Health
Care Systems Inc. (JJHCS). Assets acquired by the Company consist primarily of
client contracts, proprietary wellness, lifestyle and health promotion programs,


                                       7

software, and other health and wellness services. As part of the transaction,
the Company entered into a multi-year management contract with another
subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson whereby the Company will manage more than 50
Johnson & Johnson affiliate fitness center sites. The Company also entered into
a one-year agreement to use 660 square feet of office space of JJHCS for a fee
of $1,500 per month.

The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
The fair market value of the assets acquired resulted in the following purchase
price allocation:

                                                                   ==========



During the six months ended June 30, 2004, an additional $142,111 was paid to
JJHCS for two contract assignments. The Company also incurred an additional
$51,455 of acquisition related costs. This additional purchase price was
recorded to goodwill.


NOTE 4. FINANCING

On August 22, 2003, the Company entered into a $7,500,000 Credit Agreement with
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. to provide the Company with acquisition financing and
general working capital (the Wells Loan). The initial draw on the Wells Loan
totaled $1,255,204, which was used to refinance a revolving line of credit with
Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services, Inc. (the Merrill Lynch Loan). The
Company repaid all amounts owed to Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services,
Inc. and canceled the line of credit, which accrued interest at the one-month
LIBOR rate plus 2.35%. On August 25, 2003, the Company made a draw of $2,250,000
on the Wells Loan, the proceeds of which were placed into escrow to fund a
portion of the JJHCS asset purchase.

Working capital advances from the Wells Loan are based upon a percentage of the
Company's eligible accounts receivable, less any amounts previously drawn. At
the option of the Company, the Wells Loan bears interest at prime or the
one-month LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25% to 2.75% based upon the Company's Senior
Leverage Ratio (effective rate of 4.25% at June 30, 2004 and 4.00% at December
31, 2003). The availability of the Wells Loan will decrease $250,000 on the last
day of each calendar quarter, beginning September 30, 2003, and will expire on
June 30, 2007. Borrowing capacity under the Wells Loan totaled $6,500,000 and
$7,000,000 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003. At June 30, 2004, the Company
had $2,650,770 outstanding under the Wells Loan. Borrowings under the Wells Loan
are collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets. The Company is
required to comply with certain monthly financial covenants, including a fixed
charge coverage ratio, minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, cash flow leverage ratio and a balance sheet leverage ratio.
Beginning on January 31, 2004 and continuing to May 14, 2004, the Company was
not in compliance with certain covenants relating to the Wells Loan. On May 14,
2004, Wells Fargo agreed to waive the noncompliance and amend the loan
covenants, effective as of January 31, 2004. The Company believes the new loan
covenants are more appropriate after taking into consideration the Company's
actual financial position following the acquisition of the business assets of
JJHCS. Wells Fargo was made aware of the noncompliance shortly after January 31,
2004 and agreed to continue making capital advances


                                       8

available to the Company throughout the period as new loan covenants were
negotiated. Therefore, the noncompliance had no impact on the Company's
liquidity, capital resources or results of operations. At June 30, 2004, the
Company was in compliance with all of the new loan covenants.

On August 25, 2003, the Company entered into a $3,000,000 Securities Purchase
Agreement with Bayview Capital Partners LP ("Bayview") to provide the Company
with acquisition financing and general working capital (the "Bayview
Investment"). The Bayview Investment was initially structured as a bridge note
(the "Bridge Note"), the proceeds of which were placed into escrow to fund a
portion of the JJHCS asset purchase.

On December 8, 2003 (the "Effective Date"), the $3,000,000 Bridge Note issued to
Bayview was converted into a $2,000,000 term note (the "Term Note"), $1,000,000
of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value (the "Preferred Stock")
and a warrant to purchase common stock of the Company (the "Warrant") per the
terms set forth in the August 25, 2003 Securities Purchase Agreement. The Term
Note bears interest at 12% per year, payable monthly, and will mature on the
fifth anniversary of the Effective Date. The Term Note may be prepaid, in whole
or in part, at any time, provided that the prepayment is accompanied by a
premium ranging from 5% in year 1 to 1% in year 5. The Bayview Investment is
secured by a subordinated security interest in substantially all of the
Company's assets. The Bayview Investment contained identical financial covenants
to those in the Wells Loan described above, and on May 14, 2004 Bayview agreed
to join with Wells Fargo in waiving this noncompliance and amending the
covenants. The noncompliance with these financial covenants had no impact on the
Company's liquidity, capital resources or results of operations, and the Company
believes the amended covenants are more appropriate after taking into
consideration the Company's actual financial position following the acquisition
of the business assets of JJHCS. At June 30, 2004, the Company was in compliance
with all of its new loan covenants.

The Preferred Stock was issued to Bayview at a price of $1.00 per share,
resulting in 1,000,000 shares issued on the Effective Date. The Preferred Stock
has a stated dividend rate of 6% per year, computed on a simple interest basis,
paid in kind in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock using a price
of $1.00 per share ("PIK Dividends"). At the option of the holder, the Preferred
Stock, including any PIK Dividends, may be converted, at any time and from time
to time, into common stock of the Company at a price of $0.50 per share. In
addition, Bayview may require redemption of the Preferred Stock and PIK
Dividends upon a change of control or default (including default under the Term
Note).

         The Warrant issued to Bayview on the Effective Date represents the
right to purchase 1,210,320 shares of common stock, which represented 8% of the
Company's common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis at the Effective
Date, excluding the common stock issuable to Bayview upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock. The Warrant is exercisable at any time for a period of ten
years at an exercise price equal to $0.50 per share, and the shares obtainable
upon exercise of the Warrant may be put to the Company at fair market value (net
of the exercise price) upon a change of control or default.

The investment proceeds received from Bayview were allocated based upon the
relative fair value of each instrument, which resulted in the following
allocation:

The $432,192 difference between the $2,000,000 face value of the Term Note and
its assigned relative fair value is being amortized as interest expense over the
5-year term of the Term Note. Balances of long-term obligations are as follows:

NOTE 5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company utilizes the intrinsic value method of accounting for its stock
based employee compensation plans. All options granted had an exercise price
equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant
and accordingly, no compensation cost is reflected in net earnings for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. The following table illustrates the
effect on net earnings and earnings per share if the Company had applied the
fair value method of accounting for stock options:

        OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial
statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part 1 of this Quarterly
Report and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2003.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES. Our most critical accounting policies, which are
those that require significant judgment, include: revenue recognition, trade and
other accounts receivable, goodwill and stock-based compensation. A more
in-depth description of these can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.

GENERAL. Health Fitness Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the
Company), provide fitness and wellness management services and programs to
corporations, hospitals, communities and universities located in the United
States of America and Canada. Fitness and wellness management services include
the development, marketing and management of corporate, hospital, community and
university-based fitness centers, injury prevention and work-injury management
consulting, and on-site physical therapy and occupational health services.
Programs include wellness and health programs for individual customers,
including health risk assessments, nutrition and weight loss programs, smoking
cessation, massage therapy, back care and ergonomic injury prevention.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 AS COMPARED TO THE
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2003.

REVENUE. Revenues increased $5,397,000, or 69.8%, to $13,130,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2004, from $7,733,000 for the three months ended June 30,
2003. This increase is primarily attributed to the acquisition of the business
assets of the Health & Fitness Services Business of Johnson & Johnson Health
Care Systems Inc. ("JJHCS").

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased $1,861,000, or 117.7%, to $3,442,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 2004, from $1,581,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily attributed to the acquisition of
JJHCS. In addition, the JJHCS acquisition improved gross profit as a percent of
revenue, increasing to 26.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared
to 20.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2003.

OPERATING EXPENSES AND OPERATING INCOME. Operating expenses increased $1,262,000
to $2,473,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $1,211,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 2003. Of this increase, $220,000 represents a
non-cash expense related to the amortization of acquired intangible assets. The
remaining increase of $1,042,000 is primarily attributed to the cost of
salaries, benefits and other expenses of the management team of JJHCS.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE. Interest expense increased $115,000 to $128,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared to $13,000 for the same period in
2003. This increase is due to debt facilities the company secured to finance the
JJHCS acquisition and to provide working capital for the combined company. The
Company's cost of borrowed funds increased to an average of 6.7% for the second
quarter of 2004 from 3.5% for the second quarter of 2003.


                                       12

INCOME TAXES. Income tax expense increased $204,000 to $343,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $139,000 for the same period in 2003. The
increase is primarily due to the increase in operating profit.

DIVIDENDS TO PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS. To finance the Company's acquisition of
JJHCS, the Company sold $1,000,000 of Preferred Stock to Bayview. The Preferred
Stock was issued at a price of $1.00 per share, resulting in the issuance of
1,000,000 shares. The Preferred Stock has a stated dividend rate of 6% per year,
computed on a simple interest basis, paid in kind in the form of additional
shares of Preferred Stock using a price of $1.00 per share ("PIK Dividends").
For the quarter ended June 30, 2004, the Company accrued dividends of $28,000,
including a dividend of approximately $13,000 related to a beneficial conversion
feature associated with the PIK Dividends.

NET EARNINGS APPLICABLE TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS. As a result of the above, net
earnings applicable to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30,
2004 increased $254,000, or 117.0%, to $471,000 from $217,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2003.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 AS COMPARED TO THE
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002.

REVENUE. Revenues increased $10,545,000, or 69.1%, to $25,796,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2004, from $15,251,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2003. This increase is primarily attributed to the acquisition of JJHCS.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased $3,293,000, or 101.8%, to $6,529,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 2004, from $3,236,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily attributed to the acquisition of
JJHCS. In addition, the JJHCS acquisition improved gross profit as a percent of
revenue, increasing to 25.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to
21.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

OPERATING EXPENSES AND OPERATING INCOME. Operating expenses increased $2,461,000
to $4,865,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $2,404,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2003. Of this increase, $439,000 represents a non-cash
expense related to the amortization of acquired intangible assets. The remaining
increase of $2,022,000 is primarily attributed to the cost of salaries, benefits
and other expenses of the management team of JJHCS.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE. Interest expense increased $239,000 to $263,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to $24,000 for the same period in
2003. This increase is due to debt facilities the company secured to finance the
JJHCS acquisition and to provide working capital for the combined company. The
Company's cost of borrowed funds increased to an average of 6.8% for the six
months ended June 30, 2004 from 3.7% for the same period in 2003.

INCOME TAXES. Income tax expense increased $231,000 to $552,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $321,000 for the same period in 2003. The
increase is primarily due to the increase in operating profit.

DIVIDENDS TO PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the
Company accrued dividends on the Preferred Stock held by Bayview in the amount
of $43,000, including a dividend of approximately $13,000 related to a
beneficial conversion feature associated with the PIK Dividends.


                                       13

NET EARNINGS APPLICABLE TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS. As a result of the above, net
earnings applicable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30,
2004 increased $322,000, or 66.4%, to $807,000 from $485,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 2003.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's working capital increased $1,848,000 to $4,103,000 at June 30,
2004, compared to working capital of $2,255,000 at December 31, 2003. The
increase in working capital is primarily due to an increase in accounts
receivable resulting from the fitness and wellness management contracts acquired
in the JJHCS transaction.

On August 22, 2003, the Company entered into a $7,500,000 Credit Agreement with
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. to provide the Company with acquisition financing and
general working capital (the Wells Loan). The initial draw on the Wells Loan
totaled $1,255,204, which was used to refinance a revolving line of credit with
Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services, Inc. (the Merrill Lynch Loan). The
Company repaid all amounts owed to Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services,
Inc. and canceled the line of credit, which accrued interest at the one-month
LIBOR rate plus 2.35%. On August 25, 2003, the Company made a draw of $2,250,000
on the Wells Loan, the proceeds of which were placed into escrow to fund a
portion of the JJHCS asset purchase.

Working capital advances from the Wells Loan are based upon a percentage of the
Company's eligible accounts receivable, less any amounts previously drawn. At
the option of the Company, the Wells Loan bears interest at prime or the
one-month LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25% to 2.75% based upon the Company's Senior
Leverage Ratio (effective rate of 4.25% at June 30, 2004 and 4.00% at December
31, 2003). The availability of the Wells Loan will decrease $250,000 on the last
day of each calendar quarter, beginning September 30, 2003, and will expire on
June 30, 2007. Borrowing capacity under the Wells Loan totaled $6,500,000 and
$7,000,000 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003. At June 30, 2004 the Company
had $2,650,770 outstanding under the Wells Loan. Borrowings under the Wells Loan
are collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets. The Company is
required to comply with certain monthly financial covenants, including a fixed
charge coverage ratio, minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, cash flow leverage ratio and a balance sheet leverage ratio.
Beginning on January 31, 2004 and continuing to May 14, 2004, the Company was
not in compliance with certain covenants relating to the Wells Loan. On May 14,
2004, Wells Fargo agreed to waive the noncompliance and amend the loan
covenants, effective as of January 31, 2004. The Company believes the new loan
covenants are more appropriate after taking into consideration the Company's
actual financial position following the acquisition of the business assets of
JJHCS. Wells Fargo was made aware of the noncompliance shortly after January 31,
2004 and agreed to continue making capital advances available to the Company
throughout the period as new loan covenants were negotiated. Therefore, the
noncompliance had no impact on the Company's liquidity, capital resources or
results of operations. At June 30, 2004, the Company was in compliance with all
of the new loan covenants.

On August 25, 2003, the Company entered into a $3,000,000 Securities Purchase
Agreement with Bayview to provide the Company with acquisition financing and
general working capital (the "Bayview Investment"). The Bayview Investment was
initially structured as a bridge note (the "Bridge Note"), the proceeds of which
were placed into escrow to fund a portion of the JJHCS asset purchase.

On December 8, 2003 (the "Effective Date"), the $3,000,000 Bridge Note issued to
Bayview was converted into a $2,000,000 term note (the "Term Note"), $1,000,000
of Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase common stock of the Company (the
"Warrant") per the terms set forth in the August 25, 2003 Securities Purchase
Agreement. The Term Note bears interest at 12% per year, payable monthly, and
will mature on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date. The Term Note may be
prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time, provided that the prepayment is
accompanied by a premium ranging from 5% in year 1 to 1% in year 5. The Bayview
Investment is secured by a subordinated security interest in substantially all
of the Company's assets. The


                                       14

Bayview Investment is secured by a subordinated security interest in
substantially all of the Company's assets. The Bayview Investment contained
identical financial covenants to those in the Wells Loan described above, and on
May 14, 2004 Bayview agreed to join with Wells Fargo in waiving this
noncompliance and amending the covenants. The noncompliance with these financial
covenants had no impact on the Company's liquidity, capital resources or results
of operations, and the Company believes the amended covenants are more
appropriate after taking into consideration the Company's actual financial
position following the acquisition of the business assets of JJHCS. At June 30,
2004, the Company was in compliance with all of its new loan covenants.

The Preferred Stock was issued to Bayview at a price of $1.00 per share,
resulting in 1,000,000 shares issued on the Effective Date. The Preferred Stock
has a stated dividend rate of 6% per year, computed on a simple interest basis,
paid in kind in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock using a price
of $1.00 per share ("PIK Dividends"). At the option of the holder, the Preferred
Stock, including any PIK Dividends, may be converted, at any time and from time
to time, into common stock of the Company at a price of $0.50 per share. In
addition, Bayview may require redemption of the Preferred Stock and PIK
Dividends upon a change of control or default (including default under the Term
Note).

As of June 30, 2004, the Company did not maintain a cash balance as available
funds were used to pay down the Wells Loan. In addition, the Company has no
off-balance sheet arrangements or transactions with unconsolidated, limited
purpose entities. Refer to the footnotes in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 for disclosure related to the
Company's "Commitments and Contingencies."

On a short and long-term basis, the Company believes that sources of capital to
meet future obligations will be provided by cash generated through operations
and the Company's revolving line of credit. The Company does not believe that
inflation has had a significant impact on the results of its operations.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As indicated in our notes to the financial statements, we are not aware of any
recently issued accounting pronouncements that will have a material impact on
the Company's financial position or results of operations.

RECENTLY PASSED LEGISLATION

HIPPA. The Administrative Simplification provisions of the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, require group health plans
and health care providers who conduct certain administrative and financial
transactions electronically to (a) comply with a certain data format and coding
standards when conducting electronic transactions; (b) use appropriate
technologies to protect the security and integrity of individually identifiable
health information transmitted or maintained in an electronic format; and (c)
protect the privacy of patient health information. The Company's occupational
health line of business, which accounts for approximately five percent of the
Company's total revenue, and the group health plan the Company sponsors for its
employees are subject to HIPAA's requirements. The Company expects to be in
compliance with HIPPA requirements within the timeline specified for the
Company's affected business areas. The Company's corporate, hospital, community
and university based fitness center management lines of business are not subject
to the requirements of HIPAA.

The Company has no history of, and does not anticipate in the future, investing
in derivative financial instruments, derivative commodity instruments or other
such financial instruments. Transactions with international customers are
entered into in U.S. dollars, precluding the need for foreign currency hedges.
As a result, the exposure to market risk is not material.

SECURITIES

At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 18, 2004, the Company's
shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares of capital stock that
the Company is authorized to issue from 30,000,000 to 60,000,000, of which
50,000,000 shall be designated as common shares and 10,000,000 shall be

ITEM 3.  DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

Beginning on January 31, 2004 and continuing to May 14, 2004, the Company was
not in compliance with certain covenants relating to the Wells Loan. The Company
also was not in compliance with the identical covenants set forth in the
Securities Purchase Agreement with Bayview pertaining to a $2,000,000 term note
and $1,000,000 of Preferred Stock issued to Bayview on December 8, 2003. Wells
Fargo continued to make working capital available throughout this period of
noncompliance, and on May 14, 2004, Wells Fargo and Bayview agreed to waive the
noncompliance and to amend the covenants, effective as of January 31, 2004.
Therefore, the noncompliance had no impact on the Company's liquidity, capital
resources or results of operations. At June 30, 2004 the Company was in
compliance with all new loan covenants.
