EXPLANATORY NOTE

On February 14, 2007, Rural/Metro Corporation (Company) filed its Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in which it announced that it was restating previously reported
financial statements to correct certain accounting practice errors relating to its inventory. As more fully described in Note 3 of the financial statements, the Company has determined that certain durable medical supply items should not be
classified as inventory.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and as more fully described in Note 2 of the financial statements, the Company
changed its accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients. This change in accounting policy was applied retrospectively in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
Board (SFAS) Statement 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (SFAS 154). The Company now reflects revenue net of estimated uncompensated care, and this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K/A (this
Amendment) reflects such change. Previously, the Company recorded revenue at full established rates and recorded a provision for estimated amounts not expected to be realized as an operating expense. This Amendment amends the Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006, as filed on September 22, 2006 (Original Filing). The change in accounting policy retrospectively applied to the financial statements did not change the previously reported
operating income, net income, earnings per share, and operating cash flows. See Notes 2 and 3 of the financial statements for the amended results relating to the change in accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible
amounts related to self-pay patients and the restated results relating from the correction of certain accounting practice errors relating to inventory.

Except as required to reflect the effects of the items described above, no additional modifications or updates in this Amendment have been made to the Original Filing. Information not relating to the restatement remains unchanged and
reflects the disclosures made at the time of the Original Filing. This amendment does not describe other events occurring after the original filing, including exhibits, or modify or update those disclosure affected by subsequent events, other than
the events surrounding the Companys notes and its 2005 Credit Facility, which are discussed below. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Companys filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing,
as information in such reports and documents may update or supersede certain information contained in this Amendment. Accordingly, this Amendment only amends and restates Items 1, 1A, 6, 7, 8 and 9A of Part I of the Original Filing, in each case,
solely as a result of, and to reflect, the restatement, and no other information in the Original Filing is amended hereby. Additionally, pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Item 15 of Part II of the Original Filing has been amended to contain
currently dated certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. As required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are
attached to this Amendment as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2.

Due to the restatement of the financial statements, the Company did not timely file its
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, as disclosed on Form 12b-25 filed on February 12, 2007. As a result, the Company received a notice of default on February 22, 2007 from the trustee of its 9.875%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015, and its 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due 2016. Any default under the Indentures that govern the notes also constitutes an event of default under the Companys 2005 Credit Facility and could lead
to an acceleration of the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the 2005 Credit Facility, unless a waiver is obtained. On March 13, 2007, the Company obtained a waiver of any defaults, including the event of default described above, under
its 2005 Credit Facility. In addition, any default under the notes relating to the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, will be cured within the 60-day cure period (expires April 23,
2007) upon the filing of such report with the SEC, which the Company anticipates will occur on or about the same day that this Amendment is filed. Any or all forward-looking statements relating to the default made in this Form 10-K/A (and in any
other public filings or statements we might make) may turn out to be wrong. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. By their nature, forward-looking statements are not guarantees
of future performance or results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict or quantify. Accordingly, except to the extent required by applicable law, we undertake no duty to update the forward-looking
statements made in this Report on Form 10-K/A.

The Company has re-evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial
reporting as of June 30, 2006, and concluded that because of the inventory restatement the Company had a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. See Item 9A of Part II for further discussion and remediation measures
that are in progress.

In addition to this Amendment, the Company is amending its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the quarters ended March 31,
2006 and September 30, 2006, each of which will contain restated financial information. The Company will also file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006.

Introduction

Founded in 1948, we are a leading provider of medical transportation services, which consist primarily of emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services. We
believe we are the only multi-state provider of both medical transportation and fire protection services in the United States and that we rank among the largest private-sector providers of medical transportation and fire protection services in the
world. We currently provide services to approximately 400 communities in 23 states, including many of the fastest-growing states in the nation such as Arizona, Florida, Oregon, Utah and Georgia. As of June 30, 2006, we have approximately 95
contracts to provide 911 emergency medical transportation services and approximately 610 contracts to provide non-emergency medical transportation services and other medical transportation services. In addition, we provide non-emergency medical
transportation services to a broad customer base, including a significant number of hospitals, nursing homes and specialized healthcare facilities on a non-contractual basis. We provided 1.2 million transports during fiscal year ended
June 30, 2006. Our commitment is to provide our patients and the communities we serve with high-quality care and efficient and reliable response times. Our common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol RURL.

In pursuit of achieving our commitment, we provide medical transportation services under contracts with governmental entities, hospitals, nursing homes
and other healthcare facilities and organizations. Approximately half of our medical transports are initiated by 911 calls, with the remainder consisting of a variety of non-emergency medical transports, such as medical transports between hospitals,
nursing homes and specialized healthcare facilities. We believe that providing a mix of emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services diversifies our revenue base and permits us to utilize our workforce and medical transportation
vehicles more efficiently. We derive revenue from our medical transportation services through reimbursements we receive from commercial insurance companies and government-funded healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid and, to a lesser
extent, from fees paid to us directly by our individual patients and from government subsidies paid to us under our 911 contracts. During fiscal 2006, 85 percent of our net revenue was generated from our medical transportation and related services.

We are also a provider of private fire protection and related services, and offer such services on a subscription-fee basis to residential and commercial
property owners in three states and under long-term contracts with fire districts, industrial sites and airports at 13 sites located in 10 states. Our fire protection services consist primarily of fire suppression, fire prevention and first
responder medical care, which represented 15 percent of our fiscal 2006 net revenue.

Industry Overview

Medical Transportation Business

We estimate that expenditures for
medical transportation services in the United States were in the range of $8.0 billion to $10.0 billion for 2006. Medical transportation services are provided by governmental entities, private companies, hospitals and volunteer organizations.
According to the Journal of Emergency Medical Services 2005 Annual 200-City Survey, 52 percent of the nations largest 200 cities outsourced emergency medical transportation to private service providers. Non-emergency services are
primarily provided by private companies. There are a limited number of multi-state medical transportation providers and we are one of only two national providers of medical transportation services. We believe that the remaining private medical
transportation providers are primarily regional or local organizations serving one or a limited number of markets.

We believe the following are key
factors affecting the medical transportation business:



| |  |  | Aging U.S. population. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, about 72 million Americans, or 20 percent of the U.S. population, will be age 65 or older in
2030 compared to 36 million, or 12 percent, today. As the population continues to age, it is expected that demand for medical transportation will increase because people over the age of 65 years generally require medical transportation services
more frequently than the general population;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Stable Medicare reimbursement environment. The reimbursement for medical transportation services through Medicare has stabilized over the past several years,
reflecting the implementation of a revised Medicare pricing schedule. Historically, Medicare reimbursement rates were based on various complex methodologies under which rates varied widely among communities. The Medicare fee schedule implemented in
2002 simplified and stabilized Medicare reimbursement. The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 modified the Medicare fee schedule by providing for a one percent increase in reimbursement for urban transports
and a two percent increase for rural transports through 2006. Other fee adjustments will be fully phased by January 1, 2010;

| |  |  | Increased use of medical transportation services.The increased availability and use of emergency medical services, together with increased patient travel
between specialized treatment healthcare facilities and greater use of outpatient care facilities, nursing homes and home care have contributed to greater demand for medical transportation services; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increase in public/private partnerships. We believe the complexities associated with the emergency medical transportation business, including the exacting
and time-consuming claim submission requirements of third-party payers such as Medicare and Medicaid, are leading many public providers of emergency medical transportation services to consider partnerships with private medical transportation
companies. An example from our experience is that some local fire departments have entered into collaborations with private medical transportation companies in which the fire department provides first responder services and the private company
transports the patient and handles billing. These partnerships benefit both parties  they allow public entities to be reimbursed for certain costs while relieving them of the billing and collection obligations associated with delivering
emergency services.

Private Fire Protection Business

Municipal fire departments, tax-supported fire districts and volunteer fire departments constitute the principal providers of fire protection services in the United States. In a limited number of communities, private
companies provide subscription fire protection services to residential and commercial property owners. Typically, these are emerging communities or unincorporated areas where neither a public sector nor volunteer fire department operates. A small
number of private companies also provide such services to industrial sites, airports and other self-contained facilities on a national basis.

We believe
the most significant growth areas for subscription fire protection services will come from emerging communities, principally in Arizona, that have no public sector or volunteer fire protection services.

Our Services

Medical Transportation and Related Services

We generally provide two primary levels of medical transportation services  Advanced Life Support (ALS) and Basic Life Support
(BLS). We staff our ALS ambulances with either two paramedics or one paramedic and an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and equip them with ALS equipment (such as cardiac monitors/defibrillators, advanced airway equipment
and oxygen delivery systems) as well as pharmaceuticals and medical supplies. We staff our BLS ambulance with two EMTs and equip them with medical supplies and equipment necessary to administer first aid and basic medical treatment.

Emergency Medical Transportation Services

We generally
provide our 911 emergency medical transportation services pursuant to long-term, exclusive agreements with counties, municipalities, fire districts and other governmental entities. Our agreements require that we respond to all 911 emergency calls in
a designated area within a specified response time. Generally, we respond to all emergency calls with ALS ambulances unless otherwise specified by contract.

Under most of our agreements, the local fire department is the first responder to an emergency scene. In these situations, the fire department typically begins stabilization of the patient. Upon arrival, our ALS crew members deploy portable
life support equipment, ascertain the patients medical condition and, if required, administer ALS interventions, including tracheal intubation, cardiac monitoring, defibrillation of certain cardiac dysrhythmias and the administration of
medications and intravenous solutions under the direction of a physician. The crew also may perform BLS services, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), basic airway management and basic first aid. As soon as medically
appropriate, the patient is placed on a portable gurney and transferred into the ambulance. While one crew member monitors and treats the patient, the other crew member drives the ambulance to a hospital designated either by the patient or
applicable medical protocol. While on scene or en route, the ambulance crew alerts the hospital regarding the patients medical condition and, if necessary, the attending ambulance crew member consults an emergency physician as to treatment.
Upon arrival at the hospital, the patient generally is taken to the emergency department where care is transferred to the emergency department staff.

In
certain communities, we seek to develop public/private partnerships with the fire department to provide emergency medical transportation services. These partnerships emphasize collaboration with the fire departments and afford us the opportunity to
provide 911 emergency medical transportation services in communities that, for a variety of reasons, may not otherwise have outsourced this service to a private provider. In most instances, the provision of emergency medical transportation services
under our partnerships closely resembles that of our usual 911 emergency medical transportation contracts.

##### Table of Contents

We provide emergency medical transportation services on a fee-for-service basis and record revenue based on the level of
medical service we provide. Additionally, our fee-for service revenue may be supplemented by the communities we serve in the form of a subsidy, which further supports the level of medical services we provide.

Non-Emergency Medical Transportation Services

We provide
non-emergency medical transportation services and critical care transports, often as a contracted preferred provider, with governmental entities, hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare facilities, or at the request of a patient. Non-emergency
medical transportation services may be scheduled in advance or provided on an as-needed basis.

We utilize either ALS or BLS ambulance units to provide
non-emergency medical transports, depending on the patients medical condition, to and from residences, hospitals, nursing homes, long-term care centers and other healthcare facilities. These services may be provided when a home-bound patient
requires examination or treatment at a healthcare facility or when a hospital patient requires tests or treatments (such as MRI testing, CAT scans, dialysis and chemotherapy) at another facility. These services are administered by a licensed
emergency medical technician or paramedic.

We also provide critical care transport services to medically unstable patients (such as cardiac patients and
neonatal patients) who require critical care while being transported between healthcare facilities. Critical care services differ from ALS or BLS services in that the ambulance may be equipped with additional medical equipment and may be staffed by
a medical specialist provided by us or by a healthcare facility. Staffing may also include registered nurses, respiratory therapists, neo-natal nurse specialists and/or specially trained paramedics.

Fire Protection and Other Services

Residential and Commercial
Fire Protection Services

We generally provide our residential and commercial fire protection services, consisting primarily of fire suppression and
first responder medical care, on a subscription-fee basis to property owners in unincorporated areas who do not receive services through municipal fire departments, volunteer fire departments or fire protection districts.

An alarm typically results in the dispatch of one or more engine companies, each of which consists of an engine and two to four firefighters, including a captain, a
battalion chief, and such other personnel and equipment as circumstances warrant. The amount of equipment and personnel dispatched depends upon the type, location and severity of the incident. We utilize our dispatch capabilities to reposition
equipment and firefighters to maximize their availability and use our resources in a cost-effective manner.

We provide the majority of our residential and
commercial fire protection services on a subscription basis. Generally, subscription fees are billed annually to individual residential or commercial property owners. We also provide fire protection services to emerging communities where the
subscription fee may be included in the homeowners association assessment. Property owners in areas where we provide our fire protection services on a subscription basis may, but are not required to, subscribe for our services. We provide
services to property owners in our service areas who do not subscribe for our fire protection service on a fee-for-service basis. We also provide fire protection services under master agreements with governing entities, rather than on a subscription
basis.

As of June 30, 2006, we provided residential and commercial fire protection services in four states. Based on historical and projected housing
and development trends, we believe these states will continue to experience population increases and offer the greatest growth potential for our private fire protection business.

Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting Services

We provide aircraft rescue and firefighting services
(ARFF) on a limited basis under exclusive contracts at regional airports throughout the United States. In addition to aircraft rescue and fire fighting services, we also provide emergency medical response for certain of these regional
airports. Our ARFF firefighters have completed comprehensive professional training programs and are cross-trained as EMTs or paramedics, as well as in hazardous materials response. Our capabilities include value-added services such as co-responder
medical service in support of local fire departments for on-site medical emergencies, safety training for fuel handlers and other airport personnel, fire prevention activities, security services and testing and maintenance of fire suppression
equipment.

Industrial Fire Protection Services

We provide fire protection services and, on a limited basis, unarmed security services under exclusive contracts to five large industrial complexes, including a petrochemical plant and other self-contained facilities
in four states. Our contracts range up to three years in duration and expire at various dates through fiscal 2008. Industrial fire protection services contracts provide for reimbursement under master contracts with the facilities we serve.

Other Services

We provide other services which
include home healthcare services, dispatch services, billing services and other miscellaneous services to our customers.

Our Service Areas

We currently provide our services in approximately 400 communities in the following 23 states:



|           |  |             |  |              |  |              |  |

|Florida    |  | Mississippi |  | North Dakota |  | Tennessee    |  |           

We provide medical transportation services in 19 states and fire protection services in 12 states. There are eight
states in which we provide both medical transportation services and fire protection services.

Our Contracts

We enter into contracts with various governmental entities and private parties to provide emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services and fire protection
services. No contract accounted for more than 10 percent of our annual net revenue during fiscal 2006, 2005 or 2004. As of June 30, 2006, we had approximately 95 exclusive contracts with counties, municipalities, fire districts and other
governmental entities to provide 911 emergency medical transportation services. These contracts, which are similar to licenses, grant us the right to provide 911 emergency medical transportation services. The contracts typically specify rates that
we may charge and set forth performance criteria, such as response times, staffing levels, types of vehicles and equipment, quality assurance, indemnity and insurance coverage. In certain instances, we are required by contract or by law to post a
surety bond or other assurance of financial or performance responsibility. The rates that we may charge under a contract for 911 emergency medical transportation services depend largely on:



| |  |  | patient mix;
| | - |  | ------------



| |  |  | the nature of services rendered;
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | the local political climate;
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | the amount of subsidy, if any; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | any federal, state or county authority to regulate rates.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------

Our 911 emergency medical transportation services contracts generally extend for terms of three to five years. Generally, these contracts may be terminated by either party upon notice ranging from 30 to 180 days. Counties, fire districts
and municipalities generally award contracts to provide emergency medical transportation services either through requests for competitive proposals or bidding processes. In some instances in which we are the incumbent provider, the county or
municipality may elect to renegotiate our existing contract rather than re-bid the contract. We will continue to seek to enter into public/private alliances to compete for new business. Our contracts often contain options for earned extensions or
for automatic renewal provisions.

As of June 30, 2006, we had approximately 610 contracts to provide non-emergency medical transportation services
and other medical transportation services with governmental entities, hospitals, nursing homes and other facilities. These contracts typically designate us as the preferred provider of medical transportation services to those facilities and permit
us to charge a base fee, mileage and other additional fees for the use of particular medical equipment and supplies.

We offer fire protection services on
a subscription-fee basis to residential and commercial property owners in four states and under long-term contracts with fire districts, industrial complexes and airports at 13 sites located in 10 states. Our residential and

##### Table of Contents

commercial subscription fire protection services may be provided pursuant to contracts with the governmental entity, such as a county, in which we provide
such services. We provide fire protection services on a subscription basis in areas where no governmental entity has assumed the financial responsibility for providing fire protection. Fire subscription rates are not generally regulated by any
governmental agency in our service areas. These contracts establish the level of service required and may encompass fire prevention and education activities as well as fire suppression. Other contracts are level-of-effort based and require us to
provide a certain number of personnel for a certain time period for a particular function, such as fire prevention or fire suppression.

Prior to the
scheduled termination of a contract, we may determine that a contract is no longer favorable and may seek to modify or terminate the contract. When making such a determination, we may consider many factors including, whether the contract continues
to further our business strategy, transport volume, response time requirements, changes in payer mix, geographical issues adversely affecting response times and delays in implementing technology upgrades. We continuously review our contracts in
order to maximize operational and financial performance. From time to time, we may determine that a contract no longer meets our operational and financial performance standards and may seek to modify or exit the contract. We face risks in attempting
to exit unfavorable contracts, including the possibility of performance bond forfeiture, difficulty in collecting receivables in an exited market, severance costs, real estate lease obligations and adverse political and public relations
consequences.

Insurance Coverage

Many of our
contracts and certain provisions of local law require us to carry specified amounts of insurance coverage. As is common for our industry, we carry a broad range of comprehensive general liability, automobile, property damage, professional,
workers compensation and other liability insurance policies. As a result of the nature of our services and the day-to-day operation of our vehicle fleet, we are subject to accident, injury and professional claims in the ordinary course of
business. We operate in some states that adhere to a gross negligence standard for the delivery of emergency medical care, which reduces our potential exposure for tort judgments.

Based upon historical claim trends, we consider our insurance program to be adequate for the protection of our assets and operations. Our insurance policies are either occurrence or claims-made policies and are
subject to deductibles and self-insured retention limits that we believe are typical for the industry. We have attempted to minimize our claims exposure by implementing enhanced workplace health and safety programs, and increasing the utilization of
experts in connection with our legal, risk management and safety programs.

Surety Bonding

In certain instances, we are required by contract to provide a surety bond or other assurance of financial and performance responsibility. As a result, we have a
portfolio of surety bonds that is renewed annually. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations  Insurance Programs for additional information.

Shared Services

We support our various service areas with
integrated information systems and standardized procedures that enable us to efficiently manage the treasury and financial support functions, payroll processing, disbursements, tax and risk management. Our technology solutions include real-time
operating statistics, electronic purchasing and inventory management solutions.

Our centralized systems are designed to significantly augment local
processes and permit managers to direct their attention to the performance and growth of their operations. The centralized billing and collection system provides for efficient tracking and collection of accounts receivable. Centralized purchasing
permits us to achieve discounts in the purchase of medical equipment and supplies. Other centralized infrastructure components such as treasury, risk management, compliance, legal, payroll and accounts payable provide us the capability to purchase
related products and services on a national basis, identify and respond to national trends and provide internal support and administrative services in a more cost-effective, efficient and consistent manner across all of our operations. We provide
services and allocate costs for these centralized systems pursuant to administrative services agreements with each of our direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries.

Management Information Systems

We believe our management information systems have significantly enhanced our
operations. Among the most significant of these systems are the following:



| |  |  | Proprietary Billing System. We have developed a proprietary medical transportation billing and collections system which is operated from a single,
nationwide platform that allows for standardized procedures and training, thereby minimizing duplication and maximizing collections. This information technology is designed to improve our ability to collect outstanding claims on a timely basis.

| |  |  | Rural/Metro Electronic Patient Care Reporting System (R/M ePCR). Our R/M ePCR technology initiative is designed to enhance and expedite
the process of capturing clinical patient data, transferring the data to our proprietary billing system and submitting claims for reimbursement of our medical transportation services. Upon implementation, electronic patient care reports will replace
paper patient care reports and provide ambulance crews with clinical flow charts to fully document each patient assessment and procedure performed.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Internet-Based Scheduling Software. In an effort to minimize unscheduled overtime among field personnel, we implemented Internet-based scheduling
software designed to maximize efficiencies in crew staffing. We believe this software has resulted in an overall reduction of labor costs.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | DriveCam Technology. In an effort to reduce insurance costs and improve safety, we have begun installing on-board monitoring systems in our
ambulances. These systems monitor operator performance against safe driving standards. We expect that this technology will be installed in the majority of our fleet by the end of calendar year 2006.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that our investment in management information systems and our effective use of these systems represent key components of our success. Process and personnel
improvements in these areas are continuing. We are committed to further strengthening the productivity and efficiency of our business and believe that our management systems have the capability to support future growth.

Dispatch and Communications

Most of our emergency
transportation communications centers utilize sophisticated communications systems to direct fleet deployment and utilization 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We communicate with our vehicles over dedicated radio frequencies licensed by the
Federal Communications Commission. We use system status plans and flexible deployment systems to position our ambulances within a designated service area because effective fleet deployment represents a key factor in reducing response times and
efficiently using our resources. We analyze data on traffic patterns, demographics, usage frequency and other factors to determine optimal ambulance deployment and selection through the use of our computer-aided dispatch systems. The center that
controls the deployment and dispatch of ambulances in response to emergency medical calls may be owned and operated either by the applicable county or municipality or by us.

Depending on the emergency medical dispatch system used in a designated service area, the public authority that receives 911 emergency medical transportation calls either dispatches our ambulances directly from the
public communication center or communicates information regarding the location and type of medical emergency to our communication center, which in turn dispatches ambulances to the scene while the call taker communicates with the caller.
Substantially all of our call takers and dispatchers are trained EMTs or Emergency Medical Dispatchers with additional training that enables them to instruct a caller on pre-arrival emergency medical procedures, if necessary. In our larger
communication centers, a computer assists the dispatcher by analyzing a number of factors, such as time of day, ambulance location and historical traffic patterns in order to recommend optimal ambulance selection. In all cases, a dispatcher selects
and dispatches the ambulance. While the ambulance is en route to the scene, the emergency medical team receives information concerning the patients condition. Also, in many operations across the country, we use automated vehicle locator
technology in the vehicles to enhance our dispatch system.

Our communication systems allow the ambulance crew to communicate directly with the destination
hospital to alert hospital medical personnel of the arrival of the patient and the patients condition and to receive instructions directly from emergency department personnel on specific pre-hospital medical treatment. These systems also
facilitate coordination with other emergency service providers, such as the appropriate police and fire departments that also may be responding to a call.

Prompt deployment and dispatch are also important components of non-emergency medical transportation services. Requests for non-emergency medical transports are made by physicians, nurses, case managers and hospital discharge coordinators
who require prompt ambulance arrival at the prescheduled pick-up time. We also offer online, web-enabled transportation ordering to certain facilities. We implement system status plans for these services designed to ensure appropriate response times
to non-emergency calls and use our computer-aided dispatch software to track and manage requests for medical transportation services for large healthcare facilities and managed care companies. We have developed extensive customer service models,
based on patient medical condition, level of care and specialized equipment that will be required by the patient, to enable our communications centers to meet the needs of our customers.

##### Table of Contents

We utilize communication centers in our community fire protection activities for the receipt of fire alarms and the
dispatch of equipment and personnel that are the same as or similar to those maintained for our medical transportation services. Response time represents an important criteria in the effectiveness of fire suppression, which is dependent on the level
of protection sought by our customers in terms of fire station spacing, the size of the service area covered and the amount of equipment and personnel dedicated to fire protection.

Billing and Collections

We currently maintain five regional billing and payment processing centers as well as
a centralized private-pay collection system located near our corporate headquarters in Scottsdale, Arizona. All invoices are generated at the regional level and an account is forwarded to our centralized collection system for private-pay accounts
only if payment is not received in a timely manner. Regional centers provide customer services. All medical transportation revenue is billed and collected through our integrated billing and collection system. We derive a substantial portion of our
medical transportation fee collections from reimbursements by third-party payers, including commercial insurance companies and government-funded healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. We typically invoice and collect payments directly
from those third-party payers.

The composition of our medical transportation collections is as follows:



|                    |  |             |   |  |      |   |  |      |  
|------------------- |  | ----------- | - |  | ---- | - |  | ---- | -

|                    |  | 2006        |   |  | 2005 |   |  | 2004 |  
|Medicare            |  | 27          | % |  | 28   | % |  | 28   | %
|Medicaid            |  | 15          | % |  | 15   | % |  | 14   | %
|Commercial insurers |  | 48          | % |  | 47   | % |  | 48   | %
|Patients            |  | 10          | % |  | 10   | % |  | 10   | %
|                    |  |             |   |  |      |   |  |      |  
|                    |  | 100         | % |  | 100  | % |  | 100  | %
|                    |  |             |   |  |      |   |  |      |  

We also receive subsidies from certain governmental entities, which further supports the level of medical services
we provide. These subsidies, which are included in net revenue, totaled $9.1 million, $8.9 million and $8.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Companies in the emergency medical transportation service industry experience significant levels of uncompensated care compared to companies in other industries.
Collection of complete and accurate patient billing information during an emergency service call is sometimes difficult, and incomplete information hinders post-service collection efforts. As a result, we often receive partial or no compensation for
services provided to patients who are not covered by Medicare, Medicaid or commercial insurance. Uncompensated care generally is higher with respect to revenue derived directly from patients than for revenue derived from third-party payers, and
generally is higher for transports resulting from emergency medical transportation calls than for non-emergency medical transportation requests.

We have
substantial experience in processing claims to third-party payers and employ a billing staff trained in third-party coverage and reimbursement procedures. Our integrated billing and collection system uses proprietary software to tailor the
submission of claims to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers and has the capability to electronically submit claims to the extent third-party payers systems permit. Our integrated billing and collection system provides for tracking
of accounts receivable and status pending payment, which facilitates the utilization of specially trained billing personnel. When collecting from individuals, we sometimes use an automated predictive dialer that pre-selects and dials accounts based
on their status within the billing and collection cycle. We believe the automated predictive dialer enhances the efficiency of the collection staff. For further discussion, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.

Sales and Marketing

We primarily utilize Division General Managers, Market General Managers, Marketing Directors and EMS Healthcare Account Executives in our sales and marketing efforts. Division General Managers have overall responsibility, while Market
General Managers, Marketing Directors and EMS Healthcare Account Executives are responsible for daily interaction with our various customer constituencies, ranging from governing authorities that oversee emergency medical transportation contracts to
regional and local healthcare and nursing facilities.

Our Division General Managers generally oversee all sales and marketing efforts in their assigned
markets, as well as establish and maintain relationships with potential and existing customers. Our sales and marketing teams focus primarily on targeting new business relationships and leveraging existing contacts to grow market share. Our Division
General Managers are also the primary lead on requests for proposals to provide medical transportation services and the preparation of the related responses.

##### Table of Contents

Market General Managers and Operations Managers oversee marketing and sales activities within their markets and are
responsible for operational decisions and, in certain areas, handle hospital and government contracts and focus on relationships with larger healthcare systems within the communities.

Healthcare Account Executives are responsible for new business development, maintaining positive relationships with existing customers, coordinating community and public relations events in their respective areas and
responding to customer service concerns when they arise.

In three states, our fire operations employ subscription sales and marketing representatives who
are responsible for fire subscription sales to residential and commercial property owners. These employees are responsible for direct mail campaigns, customer service, renewal notices and invoicing fees for service to non-subscribers. We also
provide specialized sales and marketing to large commercial customers such as industrial parks, apartment complexes and other commercial centers.

Risk Management

We have consistently placed workplace health and safety among our highest priorities and that effort has proven
effective in controlling our insurance costs. We believe in creating a culture among our work force that encourages and demonstrates a committed approach to workplace health and safety.

Our programs include enhanced facility audits, additional accident reporting guidelines, the introduction of an employee/risk-management hotline and an in-depth loss data report that can be utilized by regional
managers to identify trends in their areas. We will continue to search out and implement innovative ways to reduce our insurance costs and improve the overall safety of our work environment.

We train and educate all emergency response personnel about our safety programs including, among others, emergency vehicle operations, medical protocols, use of
equipment and patient focused care and advocacy. Our safety training also involves continuing education programs and safety awareness campaigns.

Our
safety and risk management team executed a strategic initiative focused on mitigating the factors that drive losses in our operations. We aggressively investigate and respond to all incidents we believe may result in a claim. Operations supervisors
promptly submit documentation of such incidents to the third-party administrator handling the claim. We have a dedicated liability unit with our third-party administrator, which actively engages with our staff to gain valuable information for
closure of claims. Information from the claims database is an important resource for identifying trends and developing future safety initiatives.

Our
Driver Development Program (DDP) is based on the Coaching Emergency Vehicle Operator (CEVO) program, a nationally recognized drivers training program for emergency services vehicle operators endorsed by the National
Safety Council. DDP combines classroom and field training and its curriculum includes instruction on staging, proper inspection of vehicles and driving in emergency situations. We modified and enhanced the CEVO program based on our analysis of more
than 10 years of vehicle incidents as well as drivers experiences.

We are implementing an on-board monitoring system, DriveCam, which measures
operator performance against our safe driving standards. The system is designed to capture digital images and audio files of any driving performance that is outside of acceptable protocols, including excessive speed, unsafe turns and rapid stops. We
expect that this technology will be installed in the majority of our fleet by the end of calendar year 2006.

Competition

The medical transportation service industry is highly competitive. The principal providers of medical transportation services include governmental entities, other
national medical transportation service providers, large regional medical transportation service providers, hospitals and numerous local and volunteer private providers. Counties, municipalities, fire districts, hospitals or healthcare organizations
that presently contract for medical transportation services may choose to provide medical transportation services directly in the future. We experience continuing competition from municipal fire departments in providing emergency medical
transportation service. However, we believe that the non-emergency medical transportation services market currently is unattractive to the majority of municipal fire departments due to their primary role as emergency first responders in the
communities they serve.

We believe that counties, fire districts and municipalities consider quality of care, historical response time
performance and cost to be among the most important factors in awarding a contract, although other factors, such as customer service, financial stability, personnel policies and practices and managerial strength, also may be considered. Commercial
providers, including our largest national competitor, American Medical Response, often compete intensely for business within a particular community.

We
believe it is generally difficult to displace a provider that has a history of satisfying the quality of care and response time performance criteria established within a service area. Moreover, significant start-up costs, together with the long-term
nature of the contracts under which services are provided and the relationships many providers have within their communities, create barriers for entry into new markets other than through acquisition. We further believe that our status as an
emergency medical transportation service provider in a service area increases our visibility and stature and enhances our ability to compete for non-emergency services within such areas.

In the fire protection industry, services for residential and commercial properties are provided primarily by municipal fire departments, tax-supported fire districts and volunteer departments. Private sector
companies, such as ours, represent a small portion of the total fire protection market and generally provide fire protection services where a tax-supported municipality or fire district has decided to contract for the provision of fire protection
services or has not assumed financial responsibility for fire protection. Fire districts or municipalities may not continue to contract for fire protection services. In certain areas where no governmental entity has assumed financial responsibility
for providing fire protection, we provide fire protection services on a subscription basis. Municipalities may annex a subscription area or that area may be converted to a fire district that provides service directly, rather than through a master
contract. In the case of industrial or airport fire protection contracts, our customers may elect to put a contract out to competitive bid. Our key competitors for the provision of fire protection services to airports and industrial sites,
respectively, include Pro-tec Fire Services, Ltd. and Wackenhut Services, Inc.

Personnel

Employees

At June 30, 2006, we employed approximately 7,800
full-time and part-time employees of which approximately 5,700 are emergency care professionals, including paramedics, EMTs and firefighters. Approximately 400 of our employees are involved in billing and collections and approximately 1,700 are
involved in field support services, including dispatch/communications, fleet services, home medical care, administrative and clerical.

We are party to a
total of 14 collective bargaining agreements in the following locations:



|                            |  |                      |  |                             
|--------------------------- |  | -------------------- |  | ----------------------------
|Three agreements in Arizona |  | Gadsden, Alabama     |  | Two agreements in California
|Four agreements in New York |  | Knoxville, Tennessee |  | Seattle, Washington         
|Orlando, Florida            |  | Youngstown, Ohio     |  |                             

Five of these agreements, covering approximately 720 employees, are scheduled to expire at various times over the
next two years. We consider our relations with our employees to be good and we continue to work at fostering solid, mutually rewarding work environments.

Medical Personnel and Quality Assurance

Paramedics and EMTs must be state certified in order to perform emergency care services.
Certification as an EMT requires completion of a minimum of 164 hours of training in a program designated by the U.S. Department of Transportation and supervised by state authorities. EMTs also may complete advanced training courses to become
certified to provide certain additional emergency care services such as administration of intravenous fluids and advanced airway management. Certification as a paramedic requires the completion of more than 800 hours of training in advanced patient
care assessment, pharmacology, cardiology and other clinical skills in addition to completion of the EMT training program. Many of the paramedics currently employed by us served as EMTs for us prior to their certification as paramedics. We are
subject to market specific shortages of qualified EMTs and paramedics. We compete with hospitals, municipal fire departments and other healthcare providers for these valued individuals. We have undertaken efforts to minimize the effect of these
shortages and have implemented a number of programs to attract and retain a quality workforce, such as providing training programs, flexible work schedules, recruitment bonuses, moving allowances and various other retention strategies. Both
paramedics and EMTs must complete continuing education programs and, in some cases, state supervised refresher training examinations to maintain their certifications. Certification and continuing education requirements for paramedics and EMTs vary
among states and counties.

##### Table of Contents

Local physician advisory boards and medical directors develop medical protocols to be followed by paramedics and EMTs in
our service areas. Instructions are conveyed on a case-by-case basis through direct communications between the ambulance crew and hospital emergency room physicians during the administration of advanced life support procedures. In each location in
which we provide services, a medical director, who usually is a physician associated with a hospital we serve, monitors adherence to medical protocol and conducts periodic audits of the care provided. In addition, we conduct retrospective patient
care report audits with our employees to evaluate compliance with medical and performance standards.

We are a member of a number of professional
organizations, such as the American Ambulance Association, National Emergency Number (911) Association, International Association of Fire Chiefs and National Association of EMS Physicians. In those states where we provide service, we are
involved in the state ambulance association, if one exists, and in many instances our involvement includes holding elected positions. In addition, we also are involved in the Commission on Accreditation of Ambulance Services (CAAS), the
National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians and the National Fire Protection Association. Also, many of our employees are members of the National Association of EMTs, National Association of EMS Educators and other industry organizations.

Our commitment to quality is reflected in the fact that eight of our operations across the country are accredited by CAAS. The process is voluntary and
evaluates numerous qualitative factors in the delivery of services. Municipalities and managed care providers often consider accreditation as one of the criteria in awarding contracts.

Fire Protection Personnel

Fire protection personnel consist of full-time firefighters as well as trained reservists
who work on an as-needed basis. All of our full-time and reserve firefighters undergo extensive training, which exceeds the standards recommended by the National Fire Protection Association, and must qualify for state certification before being
eligible for full-time employment by us. Because approximately 75 percent of our fire response activity consists of emergency medical response, all of our full-time firefighters are trained EMTs or paramedics and are subject to the training and
continued education described above. Our ongoing training includes instruction in new fire service tactics and fire fighting techniques as well as physical conditioning.

Regulation

Market Reform and Changing Reimbursement Regulations

Market reform and various regulatory changes have impacted and reshaped the healthcare delivery system in the United States and, by extension, the medical transportation
industry. As with all other healthcare providers, we must comply with various requirements in order to participate in Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare is a federal health insurance program for the elderly and for chronically disabled individuals,
which, among other things, pays for medical transportation services when medically necessary. Medicaid is a combined federal-state program for medical assistance to impoverished individuals who are aged, blind, or disabled or members of families
with dependent children. Medicaid programs or a state equivalent exist in all states in which we operate. Although Medicaid programs differ in certain respects from state to state, all are subject to federal requirements. State Medicaid agencies
have the authority to set levels of reimbursement within federal guidelines. We receive only the reimbursement permitted by Medicaid and are not permitted to collect any difference between our customary charge and the amount reimbursed by Medicaid.

We have a national corporate compliance department that works closely with senior management, local managers, billing and collections personnel and both
the human resources and legal departments, as well as governmental agencies, to ensure substantial compliance with all established regulations and procedures. Nevertheless, despite our best efforts, there can be no assurance that we can achieve 100
percent compliance at all times, particularly in light of the complicated and ever-changing nature of the reimbursement regulations and the high volume of daily transports that we provide nationwide. Failure to comply may lead to significant
penalties or lower levels of reimbursement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. From time to time, we have taken corrective action to address billing inconsistencies,
which we have identified through our periodic internal reviews of billing procedures or which have been brought to our attention through governmental examination of our records and procedures. These matters cover periods prior to and after our
acquisition of operations. As part of our commitment to working with those governmental agencies responsible for enforcement of Medicare and Medicaid compliance, in the past we have voluntarily self-disclosed billing issues identified at certain
operations. Due to the nature of our business and our participation in the Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement programs, we are routinely subject to regulatory reviews and/or inquiries by governmental agencies. We expect these regulatory agencies to
continue their practice of performing periodic reviews related to our industry. We fully cooperate with such federal and state agencies to provide requested information and incorporate any recommended modifications of our existing compliance
programs.

Government funding for healthcare programs is subject to statutory and regulatory changes, administrative rulings,
interpretations of policy and determinations by intermediaries and governmental funding restrictions, all of which could materially impact program reimbursements for medical transportation services. The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 established the
creation of a national fee schedule for payment of medical transportation services that would control increases in expenditures under Part B of the Medicare program, established definitions for medical transportation services that linked payments to
the type of services furnished, considered appropriate regional and operational differences and considered adjustments to account for inflation, among other provisions that were enacted.

The Medicare Ambulance Fee Schedule Final Rule (the Final Rule), which became effective on April 1, 2002, categorizes seven levels of ground medical transportation services, ranging from basic life
support to specialty care transport, and two categories of air medical transportation services. The base rate conversion factor (the rate for BLS non-emergency service, the lowest fee of the seven service levels) for calendar 2006 is $186.40,
following the application of the 2006 ambulance inflation factor rate of 2.5 percent, plus separate mileage. Adjustments also were included to recognize differences in relative practice costs among geographic areas, and higher transportation costs
that may be incurred by medical transportation service providers in rural areas with low population density. The Final Rule requires medical transportation service providers to accept assignment on Medicare claims, which means a provider must accept
Medicares allowed reimbursement rate as full payment. Medicare reimburses 80 percent of that rate and the remaining 20 percent is the responsibility of the patient or their secondary insurance. We cannot balance bill the difference between the
Medicare allowable and our standard rate.

With the passage of the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, modifications were
made to the original five year phase-in of the ambulance fee schedule. Effective July 1, 2004, a regional fee schedule component of reimbursement is being phased in with the original national fee schedule and will be fully phased in on
January 1, 2010. Under the new rules, the Medicare allowable reimbursement rate will be the greater of (a) the national fee schedule or (b) a blend of the national fee schedule and the regional fee schedule. For 2004, that blended
rate was 20 percent of the national fee schedule and 80 percent of the regional fee schedule. For each succeeding year through 2007, the percentages will increase 20 percent for the national fee schedule and decrease 20 percent for the regional fee
schedule portions of the blended rate. For 2008 and 2009, the fee schedule will remain at the 2007 mix of 80 percent national and 20 percent regional. In addition to the fee schedule phase-in changes, a provision for additional reimbursement for
medical transportation services was provided to Medicare patients. Among other relief, the Act provides for a one percent increase in reimbursement for urban transports and a two percent increase for rural transports for the remainder of the
original phase-in period of the national ambulance fee schedule, or through calendar year 2006. We believe the final impact on our results of operations will be favorable, primarily due to the geographic diversity of our operations.

Reimbursement by Medicare accounted for 27 percent, 28 percent and 28 percent of our medical transportation collections for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

While we believe that the Medicare Ambulance Fee Schedule will have a favorable impact on our medical transportation revenue at incremental and full
phase-in periods, these rules could, however, result in contract renegotiations or other actions by us to offset any negative impact at the regional level that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows. Changes in reimbursement policies, or other governmental action, together with the financial challenges of some private, third-party payers and budget pressures on other payer sources could influence the timing and,
potentially, the receipt of payments and reimbursements. A reduction in coverage or reimbursement rates by third-party payers or an increase in our cost structure relative to the rate of increase in the CPI could have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Federal False Claims Act

We are subject to the Federal False Claims Act that imposes civil and criminal liability on individuals or entities that submit false or fraudulent claims for payment to
the government. Government agencies continue civil and criminal enforcement efforts in connection with investigations of healthcare companies and their executives and managers, many of which enforcement actions involve the Federal False Claims Act.
The Federal False Claims Act provides, in part, that the federal government may bring a lawsuit against any person whom it believes has knowingly or recklessly presented, or caused to be presented, a false or fraudulent request for payment from the
federal government, or who has made a false statement or used a false record to get a claim approved. In addition, private parties may initiate qui tamwhistleblower lawsuits against any person or entity under the False Claims Act
in the name of the government and share in the proceeds of the lawsuit. Although we intend and endeavor to conduct our business in compliance with all applicable fraud and abuse laws, we cannot ensure that our arrangements or business practices will
not be subject to government scrutiny or be found to violate applicable fraud and abuse laws.

Federal Anti-Kickback Statute

We are subject to the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute which is broadly worded and prohibits the knowing and willful offering, payment, solicitation or receipt of any form of remuneration in return for, or to induce (1) the referral of a
person, (2) the furnishing or arranging for the furnishing of items or services reimbursable under Medicare, Medicaid or other governmental programs or (3) the purchase, lease or order, or arranging or recommending purchasing, leasing or
ordering of any item or service reimbursable under Medicare, Medicaid or other governmental programs.

In light of the breadth of the anti-kickback
statute, many of our business arrangements with hospitals and other healthcare entities could be subject to government investigation and prosecution. Noncompliance with the anti-kickback statute can result in exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid or
other governmental programs as well as civil and criminal penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Other Federal Healthcare Fraud and Abuse Laws

We are also subject to
other federal healthcare fraud and abuse laws. Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), there are two additional federal crimes that could have an impact on our business: Healthcare Fraud
and False Statements Relating to Healthcare Matters. The Healthcare Fraud provision prohibits knowingly and recklessly executing a scheme or artifice to defraud any healthcare benefit program, including private payers. A violation of
this provision is a felony and may result in fines, imprisonment and/or exclusion from government-sponsored programs. The False Statements Relating to Healthcare Matters provision prohibits knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering
up a material fact by any trick, scheme or device or making any materially false, fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services. A violation of this provision is a felony
and may result in fines and/or imprisonment. Although we intend and endeavor to conduct our business in compliance with all applicable fraud and abuse laws, we cannot ensure that our arrangements or business practices will not be subject to
government scrutiny or be found to violate applicable fraud and abuse laws.

Administrative Simplification Provisions of the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996

The Administrative Simplification Provisions of HIPAA required the Department of Health and Human Services
(the HHS) to adopt standards to protect the privacy and security of health-related information. All healthcare providers were required to be compliant with the new federal privacy requirements enacted by the HHS no later than
April 14, 2003. The HIPAA privacy requirements contain detailed requirements regarding the use and disclosure of individually identifiable health information. Improper use or disclosure of identifiable health information covered by HIPAA
privacy regulations can result in civil and criminal penalties. We believe we are in compliance with HIPAA requirements.

In addition to enacting the
foregoing privacy requirements, the HHS issued a final rule creating security requirements for healthcare providers and other covered entities on February 20, 2003. The final security rule required covered entities to meet specified standards
by April 20, 2005. The security standards contained in the final rule do not require the use of specific technologies (e.g.,no specific hardware or software is required), but instead require healthcare providers and other covered
entities to comply with certain minimum security procedures in order to protect data integrity, confidentiality and availability. We believe we are in compliance with the security regulations.

HIPAA also required the HHS to adopt national standards establishing electronic transaction standards that all healthcare providers must use when submitting or receiving
certain healthcare transactions electronically. We believe we are in compliance with these standards.

Fair Debt Collection Practices Act

Some of our operations may be subject to compliance with certain provisions of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and comparable statutes in many
states. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, a third-party collection company is restricted in the methods it uses to contact consumer debtors and elicit payments with respect to placed accounts. Requirements under state collection agency
statutes vary, with most requiring compliance similar to that required under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. We believe we are in compliance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and comparable state statutes where applicable.

Occupational Safety and Health Administration

At the
federal level, we are subject to regulations under the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) designed to protect our employees. We endeavor to protect the health and safety of our employees and we believe we are in
compliance with the requirements of the OSHA regulations.

##### Table of Contents

State Fraud and Abuse Provisions

We are subject to state fraud and abuse statutes and regulations. Most of the states in which we operate have adopted a form of anti-kickback law, almost all of those states also have adopted self-referral laws and
some have adopted separate false claims or insurance fraud provisions. The scope of these laws and the interpretations of them vary from state to state and are enforced by state courts and regulatory authorities, each with broad discretion.
Generally, state laws cover all healthcare services and not just those covered under a federally-funded healthcare program. A determination of liability under such laws could result in fines and penalties and restrictions on our ability to operate
in these jurisdictions.

Although we intend and endeavor to conduct our business in compliance with all applicable fraud and abuse laws, we cannot ensure
that our arrangements or business practices will not be subject to government scrutiny or be found to violate applicable fraud and abuse laws.

Corporate Compliance Program

In an effort to monitor compliance with federal and state laws and regulations applicable to healthcare
entities, we have developed a program to ensure that we maintain high standards of conduct in the operation of our business and to implement policies and procedures so that employees act in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations and
company policies. The programs focus is to prevent, detect and mitigate regulatory risks. We strive to achieve this mission through:



| |  |  | providing guidance, education and proper controls based on the regulatory risks associated with our business model and strategic plan;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | providing training;
| | - |  | -------------------



| |  |  | conducting internal audits;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | resolving regulatory matters; and,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | enhancing the ethical culture and leadership of the organization.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------

Our compliance program has been structured in accordance with the guidance provided by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) of the HHS. The primary recommended standards, all of which we have
implemented, include:



| |  |  | formal policies and written procedures;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | designation of a Compliance Committee and Compliance Officer;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | education and training programs;
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | internal monitoring and reviews;
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | responding appropriately to alleged misconduct;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | open lines of communication; and,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | discipline and accountability.
| | - |  | ------------------------------

The compliance
program is based on the overall goal of promoting a culture that encourages employees to conduct activities with integrity, dignity and care for those we serve. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our compliance program examines compliance with carious
policies and regulations on a sample basis. Although such an approach reflects a reasonable and accepted approach in the industry, we cannot ensure that our program will detect and rectify all compliance issues in all service areas and for all time
periods.

Other Governmental Regulations

Our business
is also subject to other governmental regulations at the federal, state and local levels. The federal government recommends standards for ambulance design and construction, medical training curricula, designation of appropriate trauma facilities and
regulates our radio licenses. Various state agencies may modify these standards or require additional standards.

Each state where we operate regulates
various aspects of ambulance and fire businesses. These regulations may vary widely from state to state. State requirements govern the licensing or certification of ambulance service providers, training and certification of medical personnel, the
scope of services that may be provided by medical personnel, staffing requirements,

##### Table of Contents

medical control, medical procedures, communication systems, vehicles and equipment. State or local government regulations or administrative policies regulate
rate structures in certain states in which we conduct medical transportation operations. The process of determining rates includes cost reviews, analyses of levels of reimbursement from all sources and determination of reasonable profits. In certain
service areas in which we are the exclusive provider of services, the municipality or fire district regulates the rates for emergency medical transportation services pursuant to a master contract, as well as establishes the rates for non-emergency
medical transportation services that we are permitted to charge.

Applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations are subject to change. We
believe we are in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. These regulatory requirements, however, may require us in the future to increase our capital and operating expenditures in order to maintain current operations or initiate new
operations. See Risk Factors  Some state and local governments regulate our rate structures and may limit our ability to increase our rates or maintain a satisfactory rate structure,  Our business is subject to laws,
rules and regulations,  Our business is subject to substantial regulations and  HIPAA regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business for further discussion.

|ITEM 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

The following risk factors, in
addition to those discussed elsewhere herein should be carefully considered in evaluating us and our business.

We may fail to receive
reimbursements from third-party payers.

We provide our medical transportation services on a fee-for-service basis and collect a substantial portion
of our revenue from reimbursements from third-party payers, including government-funded healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid and private insurance programs. We recognize revenue when we provide medical transportation services; however,
the reimbursement process is complex and there can be lengthy delays before we receive payment. In addition, third-party payers may disallow, in whole or in part, requests for reimbursement based on assertions that certain amounts and services are
not reimbursable or that additional supporting documentation is necessary. Retroactive adjustments made by third-party payers may change amounts realized from them. We received approximately 90 and 91 percent of our medical transportation fee
collections from third-party payers during fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively, including approximately 27 percent and 28 percent from Medicare during fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively, and approximately 15 percent from Medicaid for both fiscal
years. To the extent our claims are not reimbursed or allowed, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We may not be able to successfully collect amounts billed directly to individual patients.

We are required to
provide emergency medical transportation service regardless of the ability or willingness of the patient to pay. We face the risk of not being paid by individuals that require emergency medical transportation service and the risk of increased rates
of non-payment should the number of such individuals using our services increase in our service areas. Our failure to receive payments from a significant number of individual patients could result in a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Claims against us could exceed our insurance coverage; we may not have coverage for
certain claims.

We are subject to a significant number of accident, injury and patient care incident lawsuits as a result of the nature of our
business and day-to-day operations. Some of these lawsuits may involve large claim amounts and substantial defense costs.

##### Table of Contents

In order to minimize the risk of our exposure, we maintain insurance coverage for workers compensation, general
liability, automobile liability and professional liability claims. In certain limited instances we may not have coverage for certain claims. When we do have coverage, the coverage limits of our policies may not be adequate. Liabilities in excess of
our insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Claims against us, regardless of their merit or outcome, also may have an adverse effect on our reputation and
business.

We may experience future increases in the cost of our insurance programs that could adversely affect our business, financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows.

An increase in our claim experience may result in increases in our insurance premiums. If we experience
increases in our premiums, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Two
insurance companies with which we have previously done business are in liquidation proceedings and we may be required to cover a portion of claims covered by these insurers or lose deposits we have with them.

Two of our previous workers compensation and general liability programs insurers, Reliance Insurance Company (Reliance), from whom we purchased coverage
for policy years 1992 through 2000, and Legion Insurance Company (Legion), from whom we purchased coverage in 2001 and 2002, are currently in liquidation proceedings in Pennsylvania. In the event that we incur workers compensation
or general liability claims for the policy years covered by these insurers and they are not covered by the applicable insurer or state guaranty fund, we may be required to fund any losses related to such claims. As of June 30, 2006, we had
letters of credit totaling $3.7 million issued on behalf of Reliance along with $1.3 million of cash on deposit with Mutual Indemnity, a Legion affiliate. The liquidation proceedings may result in the loss of all or part of the collateral and/or
funds currently held by these insurers, and may result in restricted access to both insurance and reinsurance proceeds relating to our general liability program. A requirement to fund significant claims or the loss of some or all of the amounts
posted as collateral could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, result of operations and cash flows.

Our revenues
may decline if Medicare reduces the reimbursements it pays to us or changes its programs.

Our revenues may decline if Medicare reduces its
reimbursement rates or otherwise changes its current Medicare fee schedule. We received approximately 27 percent and 28 percent of our medical transportation fee collections from Medicare during fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. Any reductions in
reimbursement rates or other changes to the Medicare fee schedule could result in a reduction in reimbursements we receive for our medical transportation services.

Some state and local governments regulate our rate structures and may limit our ability to increase our rates or maintain a satisfactory rate structure.

State or local government regulations or administrative policies regulate the rates we can charge in some states for medical transportation services. For example, the State of Arizona establishes the rates we may
charge in the various communities we serve in that state. Medical transportation services revenue generated in Arizona accounted for approximately 33 percent and 31 percent of net revenue for fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. In some service areas
in other states in which we are the exclusive provider of services, the municipality or fire district sets the rates for emergency medical transportation services pursuant to a master contract and establishes the rates for general medical
transportation services that we are permitted to charge. In areas where we are regulated, there is no assurance that we will receive medical transportation service rate increases on a timely basis, or at all.

Due to budget deficits in many states, significant decreases in state funding for Medicaid programs have occurred or are proposed. Some states have reduced the scope of
Medicaid eligibility and coverage. For example, patients covered by Medicare are required to make a 20 percent co-payment for medical transports. In most states, Medicaid makes this co-payment on behalf of its insureds (this is called a
cross-over payment). Indiana recently passed legislation eliminating crossover payments by Medicaid and prohibiting medical transportation providers from collecting the 20 percent co-payment from patients. Other states have proposed
taking similar steps.

If we are not able to charge satisfactory rates in one or more of the communities in which we operate it could have a material
adverse effect on our revenues, results of operations or cash flows.

Our business is subject to laws, rules and regulations that can impose fines,
penalties or other liabilities, revoke necessary licenses or otherwise cause material adverse effects.

Numerous laws, rules and regulations govern
the medical transportation and fire fighting service business covering matters such as licensing, rates, employee certification, environmental matters and radio communications. Certificates of Need that certain states

may employ to award market rights to geographic areas may change. Master contracts from governmental authorities are subject to risks of cancellation or
unenforceability as a result of budgetary and other factors and may subject us to certain liabilities or restrictions.

Any failure to comply with all, or
any changes in, applicable laws, rules and regulations could result in the revocation of contracts or licenses to conduct business in the relevant jurisdictions, fines or cause other material adverse effects. Federal and state laws also can require
the owner or operator of real property to clean up historic contamination (or pay for that cleanup), without regard to fault.

Changes to existing programs
also can create unanticipated risks.

Certain governmental actions could:



| |  |  | change existing laws, rules or regulations;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adopt new laws, rules or regulations that increase our cost of doing business;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | lower reimbursement levels; or,
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our business is subject to substantial regulation and, if we fail to comply with all applicable laws and government regulations, we could suffer penalties or be
required to make significant changes to our operations.

We are subject to extensive regulation at both the federal and state levels. The laws that
directly or indirectly affect our ability to operate our business include the following:



| |  |  | federal laws (including the Federal False Claims Act) that prohibit entities and individuals from knowingly or recklessly making claims to Medicare, Medicaid and
other government programs, as well as third-party payers, that contain false or fraudulent information;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a provision of the Social Security Act, commonly referred to as the anti-kickback statute, that prohibits the knowing and willful offering, payment,
solicitation or receipt of any bribe, kickback, rebate or other remuneration in return for the referral or recommendation of patients for items and services covered, in whole or in part, by federal healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a provision of the Social Security Act that imposes criminal penalties on healthcare providers who fail to disclose or refund known overpayments;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | similar state law provisions pertaining to anti-kickback, self-referral and false claims issues which typically are not limited to relationships with federal
payers;

If our operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws and regulations described above or the other laws and
regulations which govern our activities, we may be subject to penalties, including civil and criminal penalties, exclusion from federal healthcare programs, damages, fines and the curtailment of our operations. Any material penalties, individually
or in the aggregate, would adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our financial results. The risk of our being found in violation of these laws and regulations is increased by the fact that many of them have not been fully
interpreted by the regulatory authorities or the courts, and their provisions are sometimes open to a variety of interpretations. Any action against us for violation of these laws or regulations, even if we successfully defend against it, could
cause us to incur significant legal expenses and divert our managements attention from the operation of our business.

Healthcare laws and
regulations may change significantly in the future. We monitor these developments and modify our operations from time to time where we perceive a need to do so in response to the regulatory changes. However, we cannot assure you that any new
healthcare laws or regulations will not materially adversely affect our business. We cannot assure you that a review of our business by judicial, law enforcement, or regulatory authorities will not result in a determination that could adversely
affect our operations or that healthcare regulation will not change in a way that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

HIPAA regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business either if we fail to comply with the regulations or as a result of the costs associated with
compliance.

The privacy standards under HIPAA took effect April 14, 2001 and cover all individually identifiable health information used or
disclosed by a healthcare provider. HIPAA establishes standards concerning the privacy, security and the electronic transmission of patients health information. Under the statute, there are civil penalties of up to $100 per violation (not to
exceed $25,000 per calendar year for each type of violation) and criminal penalties for knowing violations of up to $250,000 per violation. The enforcing agency, the Office of Civil Rights (the OCR) of the Department of Health and Human
Services, has announced a compliance-based and compliance improvement type of enforcement program. We believe there is not sufficient basis to understand OCRs enforcement posture and the potential for fines which may result from OCRs
finding of a violation of the privacy regulations. The significant costs associated with compliance and the potential penalties as a result of our failure to comply with the rule could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.

HIPAA also mandates compliance with the approved HIPAA format when we submit claims electronically. We are
filing claims in the approved HIPAA format with all of our Medicare plans. In addition, we await announcements from the commercial insurers regarding their compliance with the electronic claims submission requirements.

The final security rule, which became effective April 20, 2005, requires healthcare suppliers and other entities to set security standards for health information
and to maintain reasonable and appropriate safeguards to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of this information. It also requires that we protect health information against unauthorized use or disclosure. We believe we have developed the
appropriate policies and procedures to comply with the final security rule. Failure to do so could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We could experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows due to: (i) significant costs associated
with continued compliance under HIPAA or related legislative enactments, (ii) potential fines from our noncompliance, (iii) adverse affects on our collection cycle arising from non-compliance or delayed HIPAA compliance by our payers,
customers and other constituents or (iv) impacts to the healthcare industry as a whole that may directly or indirectly cause a material adverse affect on our business.

Providers and suppliers in the health care industry, such as us, are the subject of federal and state investigations related to billing and other matters.

Both federal and state government agencies have pursued civil and criminal enforcement efforts related to billing and other matters as part of numerous ongoing
investigations of healthcare companies and their executives and managers. Although there are a number of civil and criminal statutes that can be applied to healthcare providers, a significant number of these investigations involve the Federal False
Claims Act. These investigations can be initiated not only by the government but also by a private party asserting direct knowledge of fraud. These qui tam whistleblower lawsuits may be initiated against any person or entity alleging
such person or entity has knowingly or recklessly presented, or caused to be presented, a false or fraudulent request for payment from the federal government, or has made a false statement or used a false record to get a claim approved. Penalties
for False Claims Act violations include fines ranging from $5,500 to $11,000 for each false claim, plus up to three times the amount of damages sustained by the federal government. A False Claims Act violation may provide the basis for exclusion
from the federally-funded healthcare programs. In addition, some states have adopted similar insurance fraud, whistleblower and false claims provisions.

From time to time, we receive requests and subpoenas for information from government agencies in connection with their
regulatory and investigative authority, and are likely to be subject to such requests and subpoenas for information in the future. We review such requests and subpoenas and attempt to take appropriate action. We are also subject to requests and
subpoenas for information in independent investigations. A determination by a regulatory or investigative authority in any of these investigations that we have violated the Federal False Claims Act or another civil or criminal statute could result
in significant penalties or exclusion from federally-funded healthcare programs, which could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

As we announced on February 14, 2007, our historical financial information should no longer be relied upon.

On February 14, 2007, we announced that management of the Company had concluded, and the Audit Committee had approved the conclusion, that due solely to our error in
improperly including certain durable medical supply items within inventory, the Companys consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, and the interim periods therein, and the unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements as and for the three months ended September 30, 2006, and any related financial information, should no longer be relied upon.

Until we are able to become current with our filings with the SEC, we may face several adverse consequences.

As described above, we have delayed filing our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and, although we are working as quickly as possible to complete our restatement and return to current filing status,
we cannot provide assurance as to when this process will be completed. Because we are not current with our filings with the SEC, investors in our securities do not have the information required by SEC rules regarding our business and financial
condition with which to make decisions regarding investment in our securities. In addition, until we are current with our SEC filings, the SEC will not declare a registration statement covering a public offering of securities effective under the
Securities Act of 1933, and we will not be able to make offerings pursuant to existing registration statements or pursuant to certain private placement rules of the SEC under Regulation D to any purchasers not qualifying as
accredited investors. We also will not be eligible to use a short form registration statement on Form S-3 to make equity or debt offerings for a period of 12 months after the time we become current in our filings. These
restrictions could adversely affect our ability to raise capital, as well as our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, as discussed in the risk factor below, if we are not able to make these filings by April 23,
2007, our ability to obtain immediate and continued access to additional liquidity would likely be impaired, unless we received waivers or amendments from our lenders. We cannot assure you that these amendments or waivers will be received.

In addition, due to the need for restatement of the financial statements identified above, the Company did not timely file the Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, as disclosed on Form 12b-25 filed on February 12, 2007. As a result, the Company received a notice of default on February 22, 2007 from the trustee of its 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes
due 2015, and its 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due 2016. Any default under the Indentures that govern the notes also constitutes an event of default under the Companys 2005 Credit Facility and could lead to an acceleration of the
unpaid principal and accrued interest under the 2005 Credit Facility, unless a waiver is obtained. On March 13, 2007, the Company obtained a waiver of any defaults, including the event of default described above, under its 2005 Credit Facility.
In addition, any default under the notes relating to the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, will be cured within the 60-day cure period (April 23, 2007) upon the filing of such with the
SEC. We cannot assure that we will be able to file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 by April 23, 2007, or if we are not able to make these filings by April 23, 2007, that we will be able to
obtain additional amendments or waivers.

Material weaknesses or deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting could harm stockholder
and business confidence on our financial reporting, our ability to obtain financing and other aspects of our business. Maintaining an effective system of internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial
reports.

Management reevaluated the Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting included in the Companys Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 (the 2006 Management Internal Control Report). We concluded that we had a material weakness in our internal control related to inventory. The existence of a material weakness as of June
30, 2006 would preclude management from concluding that the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2006. The Company intends to amend its 2006 Management Internal Control Report. The existence of a
material weakness is an indication that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As a result of this material weakness, managements assessment as of
June 30, 2006 will conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is ineffective. It is also possible that additional material weaknesses will be identified in the future.

Because we will conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective and because we expect our independent registered public accountants to issue
an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, and to the extent we identify future weaknesses or deficiencies, there could be material misstatements in our financial statements and we could fail to meet
our financial reporting obligations. As a result, our ability to obtain additional financing, or obtain additional financing on favorable terms, could be materially and adversely affected which, in turn, could materially and adversely affect our
business, our financial condition and the market value of our securities. In addition, perceptions of us could also be adversely affected among customers, lenders, investors, securities analysts and others. This current material weakness or any
future weaknesses or deficiencies could also hurt confidence in our business and consolidated financial statements and our ability to do business with these groups.

We are the subject of certain lawsuits, which if determined adversely to us, could harm our business.

We are
a party to, or otherwise involved in, lawsuits, claims, proceedings and other legal matters that have arisen in the ordinary course of conducting our business. We cannot predict with certainty the ultimate outcome of any of these lawsuits, claims,
proceedings and other legal matters to which we are a party to, or otherwise involved in, due to, among other things, the inherent uncertainties of litigation, government investigations and proceedings and legal matters generally. An unfavorable
outcome in any of the lawsuits pending against us, including those described above, could result in substantial potential liabilities and have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition and results of operations, our
liquidity, our operations, and/or our ability to comply with any debt covenants. Further, these proceedings, and our actions in response to these proceedings, could result in substantial potential liabilities, additional defense and other costs,
increase our indemnification obligations, divert managements attention, and/or adversely affect our ability to execute our business and financial strategies.

We are dependent on maintaining our business relationships.

We depend to a great extent on contracts with municipalities or fire
districts to provide emergency medical transportation services. Contracts or other agreements with municipalities, counties or fire districts may have certain budgetary approval constraints. Failure to allocate funds for a contract may adversely
affect our ability to continue to perform services without suffering significant losses. In addition, most of our contracts are terminable by either party upon agreed notice periods or upon the occurrence of certain events of default. We may not be
successful in retaining our existing contracts or in obtaining new contracts for emergency medical transportation or other services. The loss or cancellation of several of these contracts could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Areas in which we provide subscription fire protection services may be converted to
tax-supported fire districts or annexed by municipalities.

We provide residential and commercial fire protection services on a subscription-fee
basis to property owners in unincorporated areas who do not receive services through municipal fire departments, volunteer fire departments, or fire protection districts. If several of the areas in which we provide subscription services were to
convert to tax-supported fire districts or be annexed by municipalities, the loss of those arrangements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We may not accurately assess the costs of or revenues generated by new contracts, which could adversely affect our
business, financial conditions, results of operations or cash flows.

Our new contracts increasingly involve a competitive bidding process. When we
obtain new contracts, we must accurately assess the costs we will incur in providing services, as well as other factors such as expected transport volume, geographical issues affecting response time and the implementation of technology upgrades, in
order to realize adequate profit margins or otherwise meet our financial and strategic objectives. Increasing pressures from healthcare payers to restrict or reduce reimbursement rates at a time when the costs of providing medical services continue
to increase make assessing the costs associated with the pricing of new contracts, as well as maintenance of existing contracts, more difficult. In addition, integrating new contracts, particularly those in new geographic locations, could prove more
costly, and could require more management time, than we anticipate. Our failure to accurately predict costs or to negotiate an adequate profit margin could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or
cash flows. We face risks in attempting to terminate unfavorable contracts prior to their stated termination date because of the possibility of forfeiting performance bonds and the potential material adverse effect on our public relations, business,
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We are in a highly competitive industry. If we do not compete effectively, we could lose
business or fail to grow.

The medical transportation service industry is highly competitive. We compete to provide our emergency medical
transportation services with governmental entities, hospitals, local and volunteer private providers and private providers, including national and regional providers such as American Medical Response. In order to compete successfully, we must make
continuing investments in our fleet, facilities, and operating systems. We believe that counties, fire districts and municipalities and health-care institutions consider the following factors in awarding a contract:



| |  |  | quality of medical care;
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | historical response time performance;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | customer service;
| | - |  | -----------------



| |  |  | financial stability;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | personnel policies and practices;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | managerial strength; and
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | cost.
| | - |  | -----

Some of our current competitors and certain
potential competitors may have access to greater capital and other resources than us. Counties, municipalities, fire districts, and healthcare organizations that currently contract for medical transportation services could choose to provide medical
transportation services directly in the future. We may experience increased competition from fire departments in providing emergency medical transportation service. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete to provide our
medical transportation services.

Municipal fire departments, tax-supported fire districts and volunteer fire departments represent the principal providers
of fire protection services for residential and commercial properties. Private companies represent only a small portion of the total fire protection market and generally provide services where a tax-supported municipality or fire district has
decided to contract for these services or has not assumed the financial responsibility for fire protection. In these situations, we provide services for a municipality or fire district on a contract basis or provide fire protection services directly
to residences and businesses who subscribe for this service.

Private providers, such as Wackenhut Services, Inc., also provide fire protection services to
airports and industrial sites. We cannot assure you that:



| |  |  | we will be able to continue to maintain current contracts or subscriptions or to obtain additional fire protection business on a contractual or subscription-fee
basis;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fire districts or municipalities will not choose to provide fire protection services directly in the future; or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we will be able to successfully compete with private providers of fire protection services.

The departure of our key management could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations
or cash flows.

Our success depends upon our ability to recruit and retain key management personnel. We could experience difficulty in retaining our
current key management personnel or in attracting and retaining necessary additional key management personnel. We have entered into employment agreements with some, but not all of our executive officers and certain other key management personnel.
Failure to retain or replace our key management may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We may not be able to successfully recruit and retain healthcare professionals with the qualifications and attributes desired by us and our customers.

Our ability to recruit and retain healthcare professionals significantly affects our business. Medical personnel shortages in some of our market areas currently make the recruiting, training and retention of full-time
and part-time personnel more difficult and costly. Our internal growth will require the addition of new personnel. Failure to retain or replace our medical personnel or to attract new personnel may have an adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We may not pay dividends.

We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently plan to retain any earnings for use in our business rather than to pay cash dividends. Payments of any cash dividends in the future will depend
on our financial condition, results of operations and capital requirements as well as other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. Our senior subordinated notes due 2015, senior discount notes due 2016 and our credit facilities contain
restrictions on our ability to pay cash dividends, and any future borrowings may contain similar restrictions.

It may be difficult for a third party
to acquire us and this could depress our stock price.

We are a Delaware company which has adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan pursuant to which we
issued one preferred stock purchase right, or a Right, for each outstanding share of common stock (See Description of Capital Stock  Preferred Stock and Description of Capital Stock  Shareholder Rights Plan). Our
Shareholder Rights Plan could make it difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would benefit security holders. The rights issued under the plan have certain anti-takeover effects. The rights will cause substantial dilution to a
person or group that attempts to acquire us in a manner or on terms not approved by our Board of Directors. Anti-takeover provisions in Delaware law, certain provisions of our charter and the Shareholder Rights Plan could depress our stock price and
may result in entrenchment of existing management, regardless of their performance.

Facilities

In January 2005, we relocated our corporate headquarters within Scottsdale, Arizona under a lease agreement with an initial term expiring in 2015. In those areas where we
provide medical transportation and fire services, we also lease facilities at which we base and maintain ambulances and fire apparatus operations. We also own 14 facilities within our service areas. Rent expense totaled $12.1 million, $10.8 million
and $10.1 million for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Equipment

At June 30, 2006, we owned approximately 1,300 ambulances and alternative transportation vehicles, 200 fire vehicles and 300 other vehicles. We also operate various non-owned vehicles in the ordinary course of
our business. We use a combination of in-house and outsourced maintenance services to maintain our fleet, depending on the size of the market and the availability of quality outside maintenance services.

these lawsuits, claims, proceedings, investigations and other legal matters which we are a party to, or otherwise involved in, due to, among other things,
the inherent uncertainties of litigation, government investigations and proceedings and legal matters in general. We are also subject to requests and subpoenas for information in independent investigations. An unfavorable outcome in any of the
lawsuits pending against us or in a government investigation or proceeding, could result in substantial potential liabilities and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Further,
these proceedings, and our actions in response to these proceedings, could result in substantial potential liabilities, additional defense and other costs, increase our indemnification obligations, divert managements attention, and/or
adversely affect our ability to execute our business and financial strategies. Our outstanding litigation includes the following:

The Companys
subsidiary, Sioux Falls Ambulance Inc. (Sioux Falls) had been conducting settlement discussions with the OIG of the HHS regarding alleged improper billing practices in South Dakota. Although Sioux Falls did not admit any liability with
respect to the OIGs claims, Sioux Falls, the United States of America and the OIG entered into a settlement agreement, effective October 25, 2005. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the government agreed to release Sioux Falls
from any civil or administrative monetary claims the government may have had against Sioux Falls relating to the alleged improper practices. In exchange for such release, Sioux Falls paid the United States $0.5 million on October 28, 2005.

The U.S. government is conducting an investigation into alleged discounts made in violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute in connection with
certain of the Companys contracts that were in effect when the Company had operations in the State of Texas. The Company is currently negotiating a settlement with the government regarding these allegations. Although there can be no assurances
that a settlement agreement will be reached, any such settlement agreement may require the Company to make a substantial payment to the government and enter into a Corporate Integrity Agreement. Management believes that the $2.5 million charge
recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2006 is adequate to cover any potential losses relating to this matter. If a settlement is not reached, the government has indicated that it will pursue further civil action. There can be no
assurances that this matter will be fully resolved by settlement or that other investigations or legal action related to these matters will not be pursued against the Company in other jurisdictions or for different time frames.

On September 11, 2006, the closing sale price of our common stock was $7.17 per share. On September 11,
2006, there were approximately 2,960 holders of record of our common stock.

Dividend Policy

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and currently plan to retain our earnings, if any, for use in our business rather than to pay cash dividends.
Payments of cash dividends in the future will depend on our financial condition, results of operations and capital requirements as well as other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. Our 2005 Credit Facility Agreement, Senior
Subordinated Notes and Senior Discount Notes contain restrictions on our ability to pay cash dividends and any future borrowings may contain similar restrictions. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations  Liquidity and Capital Resources for further discussion.

operating in four and ten medical transportation service areas, respectively, as a result of these service areas not meeting internal operational and profitability measures. We also ceased operating in one and three fire and other service areas

|ITEM 7. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Selected Financial Data and our consolidated financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere
herein.

Restatement and Accounting Change

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, and as more fully described in Note 2 of the financial statements, we changed our accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay
patients, defined as uncompensated care. This change in accounting was applied retrospectively in accordance with SFAS 154. We now present revenue net of an estimate for uncompensated care within the Consolidated Statement of Operations,
and this Amendment reflects such change. Previously, we recorded revenue at full established rates and recorded a provision for estimated amounts not expected to be realized as an operating expense, as is generally accepted practice under the AICPA
Guide, Accounting for Health Care Organizations (Guide). We believe that the new method of accounting is preferable given recent industry practice and the direction of deliberations relating to proposed revisions to the Guide
relating to revenue recognition for self-pay patients, and its consistency with the criteria for revenue recognition pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104. The retrospective application of this accounting change decreased net revenue and
operating expenses by $97.6 million, $80.7 million and $78.5 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. This Amendment amends the Form 10-K for the fiscal year end June 30, 2006 (Original
Filing), to amend and restate the financial statements and other financial information contained in the Original Filing. See Managements Overview below. The change in accounting policy, retrospectively applied to the financial
statements, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, did not change the previously reported income (loss) from continuing operations or net income (loss). There was no material effect on cash flows from operating, investing or
financing activities as a result of the change in accounting policy. See Item 9A  Controls and Procedures.

As more fully described in Note 3 of
the financial statements, in connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, management determined that inventory had been historically overstated by the inclusion of certain durable medical supply
items that should instead have been expensed as incurred. All previously issued financial statements contained in the Original Filing have been restated for the impact of expensing these items and resulted in an increase (reduction) of net earnings
of ($27,000), $994,000 and $97,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The cumulative effect of this error on net earnings for all periods preceding fiscal 2004 was an increase in the accumulated deficit as of July
1, 2003 of $3.9 million. There was no material effect on cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a result of the adjustment to inventory.

Managements Overview

During the twelve months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, our net revenue increased 7.1 percent and 9.6
percent, respectively. The current year decline in the net revenue growth rate is attributable primarily to the increase we experienced in uncompensated care. Net income for the twelve months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was $3.5 million and
$89.3 million, respectively. The primary factor driving the decrease in net income relates to the $85.2 million tax benefit resulting from the release of a valuation allowance that was offsetting our net deferred tax asset. The valuation allowance
was established beginning in fiscal 2000 as a result of substantial financial and taxable losses arising from the Companys restructuring, bad debt write-offs, and impairments as a result of the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 142, Goodwill and Intangible Assets. We regularly assessed the recoverability of the deferred tax assets on a regular basis by reviewing factors of past and future profitability. During the fiscal 2005 review of the deferred tax
assets, we concluded that there were strong factors indicating that it was more likely than not that the related deferred tax assets would be realized. These factors included cumulative pretax income in prior years, the refinancing of our long-term
debt in 2005, which furthered managements belief that Rural/Metro would realize the value of such released assets, and our financial projections of continuing income in future years. As a result we released a significant portion of the
valuation allowance. Another factor impacting the decrease in fiscal 2006 net income resulted from the decision to exit the New Jersey ambulance market, primarily due to competitive factors that limited our ability to secure exclusive contracts
within municipalities for 911-emergency medical transport services, which resulted in a $4.0 million after tax loss. In addition during fiscal 2006 net income was reduced by a $1.6 million after tax charge relating to the governments
investigation into certain of our discontinued Texas operations for the year 1993 through 2002.

Executive Summary

We provide medical transportation services, which consist primarily of emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services, to approximately 400 communities in 23
states. We provide these medical transportation services under contracts with governmental entities, hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare facilities and organizations. As of June 30, 2006, we had approximately 95 exclusive contracts to
provide 911 emergency medical transportation services and approximately 610 contracts to provide non-emergency medical transportation services and other medical transportation services.

##### Table of Contents

Approximately half of our medical transports are initiated by 911 calls, with the remainder primarily consisting of a
variety of non-emergency medical transports, such as medical transports between hospitals, nursing homes and specialized healthcare facilities. We believe that providing a mix of emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services
diversifies our revenue base and permits us to utilize our labor force more efficiently. We derive revenue based on the level of medical service we provide through reimbursements we receive from commercial insurance companies and government-funded
healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid and, to a lesser extent, from fees paid to us directly by individual patients and from government subsidies paid to us under 911 emergency medical transportation contracts.

Medical transportation revenue depends on various factors, including the mix of payers, the mix of rates, the acuity of the patients we transport, the mix of activity
between emergency medical transportation services and non-emergency transportation services and the level of uncompensated care, as well as other competitive and market factors. The medical transportation portion of our business represented 85.0
percent of our fiscal 2006 net revenue.

We also provide private fire protection and related services, and offer such services on a subscription-fee basis
to residential and commercial property owners in three states and under long-term contracts with fire districts, industrial sites and airports at 13 sites located in 10 states. Our fire protection services consist primarily of fire suppression, fire
prevention and first responder medical care and represented 15.0 percent of our fiscal 2006 net revenue.

Business Overview

Our Strengths

We believe we are well positioned to take advantage of
industry trends and believe our strong competitive position is attributable to a number of factors, including the following:

Broad Presence in
Attractive Markets

We operate in geographically diverse markets with favorable demographics. 63 percent of our net revenues are generated in states
with population growth in excess of the national average, such as Arizona, Florida, Oregon, Utah and Georgia. A key driver of the rapid population growth in many of the states we serve has been the migration of the elderly seeking to retire or
vacation in warmer climates. As a result, approximately 43 percent of the patients we transported during fiscal 2006 were 65 years or older. This affects us because the elderly require a greater amount of emergency and non-emergency medical
transports on average than the general population.

Competitively Well-Positioned

We are a party to approximately 95 contracts granting us the exclusive right to provide 911 emergency medical transportation services for a particular city or county. We
have 33 Certificates of Need, or the equivalent, in eight states. In those states that issue them, a Certificate of Need is required to bid on 911 emergency medical transportation service contracts. Typically, a limited number of Certificates of
Need are granted by a state or county. Our experience has been that obtaining a Certificate of Need is a significant barrier to entry because a prospective provider of emergency medical services must establish that existing services in a particular
area of the state are inadequate to meet the communitys medical transportation needs. We are often able to use the visibility created by our status as the communitys 911 emergency medical transportation service provider to win
non-emergency medical transportation business. We believe that we are well-positioned to capitalize on the needs of our local markets due to our emphasis on providing an effective, quality care service model, enhanced by response time reliability
and cost efficiencies.

Decentralized Operating Structure with National Efficiencies

Medical transportation and fire protection are locally-delivered services, and strong local operations are critical to providing these services successfully. We grant our
regional executives and local operations managers significant authority to make key decisions regarding the day-to-day operations in our service areas, and consequently, we have built strong, efficient operations at the regional and local levels. We
have combined our local operations with a centralized national platform of shared services, including treasury functions, insurance and safety programs, information services, benefits, purchasing and corporate compliance. This operating structure
has allowed us to optimize cost savings while at the same time maintain effective field operations.

Billing and Collections Capability

Over the past several years, we began the implementation of a number of initiatives to improve our billing and collections capability. These initiatives included consolidating our billing operations and streamlining
our overall medical transportation billing processes by expediting the timely filing of claims and creating added controls over the day-to-day flow of aging claims. Additionally, we have improved the quality of data gathering and entry by emergency
and non-emergency medical transportation personnel to ensure compliance with medical necessity standards set by third-party payers. We have implemented quality assurance controls and procedures for review of claim submissions prior to submitting the
claims to third-party payers and for following up on any denials of claims by third-party payers. We have also placed a high priority on submitting medical transportation claims electronically in order to expedite payment and maximize the
efficiencies afforded by such systems, and we currently submit the majority of our bills electronically.

Experienced Management Team

We believe that the disciplined approach of our senior management team has been the key reason for our growth in net revenue and EBITDA. Our senior
management team is supported by 22 front-line division general managers who have an average of 19 years of industry experience and who manage the day-to-day provision of service in, and our relationships with, the communities we serve. Our
management combines extensive knowledge of medical transportation and fire protection services with operations, finance, billing and collections, insurance, risk and safety and federal affairs expertise. A significant portion of the compensation of
our senior management and division general managers comes from an incentive program that ties bonuses to achieving financial and operating goals and other individual objectives established for each participant.

Our Business Strategy

Our business strategy is to expand our
non-emergency medical services within existing and contiguous markets, selectively enter into new 911 emergency markets with favorable demographics, invest in technology to improve operating efficiencies and workplace safety and maximize cash flow
while providing the highest possible quality of medical transportation, fire protection and related services for the customers and patients we serve. The key elements of our business strategy are the following:

Expand Within Existing and Contiguous Service Areas

We
believe we can maximize our return on the infrastructure we have built in our existing operating areas by continuing to expand the non-emergency medical transportation services. In areas where we are the 911 emergency medical transportation
provider, we seek to leverage this visibility to compete for non-emergency medical transportation business. We also seek to expand our 911 emergency medical transportation services in locations that are contiguous to our existing service areas. This
strategy increases the utilization of our work force through balanced growth of emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services. Our strategy also enables us to gain operational efficiencies and effectively manage our costs and assets by
leveraging our fleet, communications systems and management within our existing service areas. Our efforts contributed to same-service area revenue growth in the medical transportation and related service business of 3.9 percent and 8.9 percent for
fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005, respectively.

Selectively Enter New Markets

We continue to pursue contracts and alliances with municipalities, other governmental entities, hospital-based emergency providers and fire districts in select new markets. Among the criteria we set for entering a new
market are whether there is an opportunity to provide both 911 emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services, geographic proximity to existing operations, expected revenues and margins, payer mix, medical transportation demands,
competitive profiles and demographic trends. During fiscal 2006, we began providing exclusive emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services to the cities of Salem, Oregon, Roswell, New Mexico and Salt Lake City, Utah. Additionally, we
began providing medical transportation services to the Orlando Regional Medical Center health system.

Invest in Technology to Improve Operating
Efficiencies

We have developed proprietary technology systems to create operating efficiencies and improve the overall quality of service. In
addition, we invest in and utilize technology to improve the performance of operations and utilization of our fleet, including the following specific initiatives:



| |  |  | Proprietary Billing System.We have developed a proprietary medical transportation billing and collections system which is operated from a single, nationwide
platform that allows for standardized procedures and training, thereby minimizing duplication and maximizing collections. This information technology is designed to improve our ability to collect outstanding claims on a timely basis.

| |  |  | Rural/Metro Electronic Patient Care Reporting System (R/M ePCR). Our R/M ePCR technology initiative is designed to enhance and expedite the
process of capturing clinical patient data, transferring the data to our proprietary billing system and submitting claims for reimbursement of our medical transportation services. Upon implementation, electronic patient care reports will replace
paper patient care reports and provide ambulance crews with clinical flow charts to fully document each patient assessment and procedure performed.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Internet-based scheduling software. In an effort to minimize unscheduled overtime among field personnel, we implemented Internet-based scheduling software
designed to maximize efficiencies in crew staffing. We believe this software has resulted in an overall reduction of labor costs.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | DriveCam technology. In an effort to reduce insurance costs and improve safety, we have begun installing on-board monitoring systems in our ambulances. These
systems monitor operator performance against safe driving standards. We expect that this technology will be installed in the majority of our fleet by the end of calendar year 2006.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Improve Workplace Health and Safety and Reduce Insurance Costs

We have consistently placed workplace health and safety among our highest priorities due, in part, to escalating insurance costs. Our management, risk management and quality assurance staffs conduct risk management programs for quality
assurance, loss prevention and early intervention. We believe in creating a culture among our work force that encourages and demonstrates a committed approach to workplace health and safety. Over the past several years, we have implemented a variety
of safety initiatives that support this commitment, including enhanced facility audits, additional accident reporting guidelines, introduction of an employee risk-management hotline and an in-depth loss data report that can be utilized by regional
managers to identify trends in their areas. We have developed an extensive claims database that we use to manage our business and identify risks and trends, thereby allowing us to focus our programs and training on identifying and minimizing risk
exposure. We actively promote early reporting, evaluation and resolution of incidents that may evolve into claims.

Maximize Cash Collections

We continue to focus on maximizing cash collections by improving billing practices, implementing or negotiating rate increases to meet the
escalating costs of delivering high-quality services and seeking subsidies to further support the level of medical services we provide.

Operating
Statistics

In evaluating our business, we monitor a number of key operating and financial statistics including net/net EMS Average Patient Charge,
(net/net EMS APC), Average Days Sales Outstanding (DSO, see further discussion in Results of Operations), Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA, see further discussion
in Liquidity and Capital Resources) and medical transport volume (see further discussion in Results of Operations), among others.

Factors Affecting Operating Results

Fiscal 2006 results reflect our
continued focus on growing and strengthening core operations. We continued emphasis on expanding service areas that we have identified for future long-term growth, seeking targeted new contract opportunities and improving operating efficiencies.

We have observed the following trends and events that have affected or are likely to affect our financial condition and results of operations in the
future.

Transport Volume

We depend on requests
for emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services to support our primary source of revenue. Increases or decreases in transport volume are influenced by a number of factors. These factors include population growth, a change in the
demographics of the communities we serve (for example, aging of the overall population), and seasonal or one-time factors that may affect the number of people requiring medical transportation. Our transport volume is affected by entry into new
markets and exit of discontinued markets or non-renewed contracts. The strength and number of our non-emergency medical transportation competitors in any given service area also affects our ability to expand market share in that location.

Uncompensated Care

When we contract with
municipal, county or other governing authorities as an exclusive provider of 911 emergency medical transportation services, we are required to provide services to their citizens regardless of the ability or willingness of patients to pay. While we
make every attempt to negotiate subsidies to support the level of medical services we provide, not all authorities will agree to provide such subsidies. As a result, we incur write-offs for uncompensated care in the normal course of providing
medical transportation services.

Our methodology for reserving for uncompensated care is based on a standardized procedure that includes periodic reviews
of subsequent historical receipts to determine actual historical collection percentages. These percentages are used to determine current anticipated collection percentages, which are applied to gross revenue in order to calculate net revenue Net
revenue is defined as gross medical transport revenue less provisions for discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers and uncompensated care.

The level of uncompensated care we experience can be affected by a variety of factors, including the following:



| |  |  | The number of patients we transport that do not pay us for the medical services we provide;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Rate increases applied to certain insurance payers may not be realized by us with respect to certain patients that require our medical services;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A sustained disruption in collections, and,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The quality of our billing documentation and procedures.

Work Force Management

Our business strategy focuses on optimizing the deployment of our work force in order to meet contracted response times and otherwise maintain high levels of quality care and customer service. A key measure is our ability to efficiently and
effectively manage labor resources and enhance operating results. Several factors may influence our labor management efforts, including market-specific shortages of qualified paramedics and emergency medical technicians, which affect temporary
wages. We also may experience increases in overtime and training wages due to growth in transport volume related to new contracts, expansion in existing markets and seasonal transport demand patterns.

Insurance Programs

Throughout fiscal 2006 we have continued
to close workers compensation and general liability claims. We have also worked to minimize future insurance-related losses through proactive risk management and work place safety initiatives. These programs include the implementation of
DriveCam technology in the ambulance fleet; ergonomic safety programs designed to reduce on-the-job injuries and complementary return to work, fit for duty, and wellness programs. See the Insurance section of Liquidity and Capital Resources for
further discussion of our insurance programs.

Contract Activity

New Contracts

We were awarded several new contracts during fiscal 2006, including the:



| |  |  | Five-year contract for exclusive emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services to the City of Salem, Oregon, which became effective July 1, 2005;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Two-year contract as the exclusive emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services provider for the City of Roswell, New Mexico and surrounding Chaves

Contract Non-Renewals

In an effort to strengthen our base of core operations, we regularly perform financial reviews of contracts for profitability. Based upon such a review, we made a strategic decision to exit our Augusta, Georgia 911 emergency medical
services contract upon its expiration on December 31, 2005. This contract generated approximately $0.8 million in net income from discontinued operations during fiscal 2005, the last full year of its operations. Income (loss) from discontinued
operations excludes the allocation of certain shared services costs such as human resources, financial services, risk management and legal services, among others.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, we were not selected in a competitive bidding process to continue as the 911 emergency medical transportation provider to the City of Scottsdale, Arizona. Our contract ended on February 17,
2006; however, due to our continuing involvement in the City of Scottsdales non-emergency medical transportation services market and our role as the back-up 911 emergency medical transportation provider, this service area remains a continuing
operation. This contract generated approximately ($0.4) million in net operating loss, during fiscal 2005, the last full year of its operations.

Our
exclusive 911 emergency medical services contract with the City of Chandler, Arizona expired on December 17, 2005. Prior to the expiration, we were notified by the Chandler City Council that it had voted to continue our services in
approximately half of the city. This contract, in its entirety, generated approximately $0.4 million in net income from continuing operations during fiscal 2005, the last full year of its operations. As a result of this change, we have re-deployed
certain of our emergency medical transportation resources to expand our non-emergency medical transportation market share.

New Accounting Standards

SFAS 123R

On July 1, 2005, we adopted
the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (SFAS) Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R) using the modified prospective method. As a
result of the adoption, we recognized approximately $28,000 of stock based compensation expense in the statement of operations for fiscal 2006. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

In November 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Staff Position No. FAS 123(R)-3, Transition Election Related to
Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards (FSP 123(R)-3). Under the provisions of FSP 123(R)-3, entities may follow either the transition guidance for the additional-paid-in-capital pool as prescribed by SFAS
123(R), or elect to use the alternative transition method as described in the FSP. An entity that adopts SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective application method may make a one-time election to adopt the transition method described in the FSP.
We are currently evaluating the available transition alternatives and have until November 2006, which is one year from the effective date of the FSP, to finalize our one-time election.

FIN 48

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes  an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected
to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2006. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FIN 48 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Net revenue growth of $30.1
million, or 7.1 percent, resulted from a $24.8 million, or 6.9 percent increase in medical transportation and related services revenue and a $5.3 million, or 8.5 percent increase in fire and other services revenue.

As a percentage of net revenue, operating expenses were 240 basis points lower in fiscal 2006 compared to the prior year primarily due to a 170 basis point decrease in
payroll and employee benefits and a 40 basis point decrease in other operating expenses, both as a percentage of net revenue. These fluctuations are described in further detail below.

Income from continuing operations per diluted share of $0.38 for fiscal 2006 includes an increase in the average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period from 24.1 million shares at June 30,
2005 to 24.8 million shares at June 30, 2006 due to common shares issued as a result of stock option exercises.

Medical Transportation and Related Services

Same service area revenue accounted for $13.8 million of the increase in medical transportation and related services revenue while the remaining $11.0 million resulted from revenues generated under new contracts in
Tacoma, Washington, Salem, Oregon, Roswell, New Mexico, Salt Lake City, Utah and the Orlando Regional Healthcare System. Approximately $8.4 million of the increase in same-service area revenue related to increased rates and the balance of $5.4
million was due to increased transports.

Medical transports in areas that we served in both fiscal 2006 and 2005 increased by approximately 6,000
transports as a result of an overall aging population, increase in population density where we have significant operations and increased patient travel between specialized treatment health care facilities. Medical transports related to new contracts
totaled approximately 33,000 for fiscal 2006. The 14.6 percent increase in transports for our alternative transportation services business can be directly attributed to growth in our non-emergency medical transportation business.

Consolidated net/net EMS APC for fiscal 2006 was $342 compared to $331 for fiscal 2005. The 3.3 percent increase in net/net EMS APC is primarily a result of rate
escalators and other general rate increases that are contained or allowed in certain contracts to provide EMS services as well as a change in payer mix in select markets.

Discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers (contractual allowances) related to continuing operations, which are reflected as a reduction of gross medical transportation
revenue, totaled $247.4 million and $212.7 million for fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. Such discounts represented 35.3 percent and 34.0 percent of gross medical transportation fees for fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase of 130
basis points is primarily a result of rate increases and a change in payer mix in certain markets. Such rate increases are applicable to commercial insurance and private pay patients. We are unable to pass on these rate increases to Medicare,
Medicaid and certain other payers. Uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue was 13.8 percent and 12.8 percent for fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase is primarily related to the effect of rate
increases, many of which are not allowable under government-funded healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid and the related growth in medical transportation revenue across all payer classes. During the second half of fiscal 2006, we
experienced a disruption in collections caused by Medicare patients transition to Medicare Advantage (MA) plans. We also continued to experience a disruption of collections related to Medicaid managed care payers in Arizona.

Our uncompensated care methodology is based on a standardized procedure that includes periodic reviews of subsequent historical receipts to determine
actual historical collection percentages. These percentages are used in the determination of current anticipated collection percentages that are applied to gross revenues in calculating net revenue and the estimate for uncompensated care. In
accordance with our methodology, we recorded additional reserves until such time that subsequent receipts reflected improved collections results.

Fire and Other Services

The increase in fire and other services revenue is primarily due to fire subscription revenue growth totaling $4.4 million, or 11.2 percent, of which $3.0 million was related to higher subscription rates and $1.4 million was related to an
increase in the number of subscribers. Additionally, master fire fees increased by $1.4 million due to increases in various master fire contract rates.

Operating Expenses

Payroll and Employee Benefits

The overall increase in payroll and employee benefits is primarily due to greater medical transport activity and general wage rate increases which resulted in higher salary expense of $18.3 million. Approximately $4.8
million of this increase related to the impact of new service areas. These increases were partially offset by a $4.9 million year over year reduction in workers compensation expense due to improved claims history and continuing overall
favorable insurance trends and a $3.5 million decline in management incentive expense due in part to bonuses of $4.5 million paid during fiscal 2005 associated with our debt refinancing activities. Payroll and employee benefits as a percentage of
net revenue decreased from 61.2 percent to 59.5 percent primarily due to the reduction in workers compensation expense and management incentive expense described above.

Depreciation and Amortization

The increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to higher depreciation
expense as a result of increased capital expenditures during fiscal 2006 and 2005, partially offset by a $0.4 million write-off of a non-compete covenant in the prior year.

Other Operating Expenses

The increase in other operating expenses was principally due to a $2.6 million increase in
fuel expense primarily driven by an overall increase in the cost of fuel, higher professional fees of $2.3 million which include legal expenses related to market share protection efforts in certain markets and a fee related to an amendment of our
credit facility, a $2.0 million increase in contractual service and management fees related to the increased number of transports and increases in other miscellaneous operating expenses, none of which were individually significant. These increases
were partially offset by a $3.2 million reduction in general liability insurance costs resulting from favorable historical claims experience in recent years.

Gain on Sale of Assets

We recognized a $1.3 million pre-tax gain on the sale of real estate located in Arizona during the first quarter of
fiscal 2006. Cash proceeds from this transaction totaled $1.6 million.

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense is primarily due to a higher average effective interest rate including a $4.8 million increase in non-cash interest expense related to
the accretion of our 12.75 percent Senior Discount Notes as well as a $0.4 million increase in the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with unscheduled Term Loan B principal payments made during fiscal 2006. This increase is partially offset
by interest savings stemming from the lower average Term Loan B principal balance.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

During fiscal 2005, net proceeds from our March 2005 refinancing transaction were used to repay approximately $302.6 million of existing indebtedness. In connection
therewith, we recorded $8.2 million of debt extinguishment costs in fiscal 2005. These costs included non-cash charges of $5.6 million related to the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the retired debt and $0.1 million related to
unamortized discounts as well as cash redemption premiums of $2.5 million.

Minority Interest

The change in minority interest expense is due to increased net income in our joint venture with the City of San Diego in fiscal 2006 as compared to fiscal 2005. Income
was generated in fiscal 2006 as a result of rate increases, while the income generated in fiscal 2005 was a result of both rate increases and increases in transports.

Income Tax Provision

During fiscal 2005, we recorded an $85.3 million income tax benefit related to continuing operations, of which $85.2 million was the result of the release of a valuation allowance that was offsetting our net deferred tax asset (primarily
our net operating loss carryforwards). The tax benefit associated with the valuation allowance release was partially offset by state income taxes and Federal Alternative Minimum Tax. Beginning in fiscal 2006, we are primarily recognizing deferred
income tax expense, as we utilize net operating loss carryforwards to reduce federal and state taxes currently payable and the associated deferred tax benefits are realized. As a result, minimal current cash payments are required.

The valuation allowance was established beginning in fiscal 2000 as a result of substantial financial and taxable losses arising from the Companys restructuring,
bad debt write-offs, and impairments as a result of the adoption of SFAS 142, We regularly assessed the recoverability of the deferred tax assets by reviewing factors of past and future profitability. During the fiscal 2005 review of the deferred
tax assets, we concluded that there were strong factors indicating that it was more likely than not that the related deferred tax assets would be realized. These factors included cumulative pretax income in prior years, the refinancing of our
long-term debt in 2005, which furthered managements belief that we would realize the value of such released assets, and our financial projections of continuing income in future years. As a result, we released a significant portion of the
valuation allowance.

We still maintain a valuation allowance of $36.4 million against deferred tax assets that we do not believe will be realized. The
valuation allowance includes $14 million related to capital loss carryforwards, $10.8 million related to federal net operating loss carryforwards, and $11.6 million related to state net operating loss carryforwards.

During fiscal 2006, we recorded a $10.9 million income tax provision related to continuing operations. This provision includes $9.7 million of deferred income tax
expense, which does not require a current cash payment. The deferred income tax expense results primarily from utilization of tax benefits, primarily resulting from net operating loss carryforwards, generated in prior years.

The continuing operations tax provision results in an effective tax rate of 51.6 percent. This rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35.0 percent as a result
of recurring expenses that are not deductible for income tax purposes, such as certain executive compensation and a portion of non-cash interest related to our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes. These items increased our effective tax rate by 5.8 percent
Additionally, the effective tax rate reflects $0.8 million of adjustments to prior year tax provisions, which increased the effective tax rate by 4.0 percent. The effective income tax rate applicable to continuing operations also includes 6.4
percent related to state income taxes (net of federal benefit). This is significantly higher than the 3.5 percent state tax effective rate we expect based on our current operations and structure. This current year increase in the state tax effective
rate relates primarily to managements assessment of the realizability of certain state net operating loss carryforwards.

Discontinued
Operations

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we discontinued all medical transportation services provided in the State of New Jersey. We
based this decision on the fact that our business primarily consisted of non-emergency medical transportation services and the limited future potential to obtain 911 emergency transportation contracts in that specific area. The financial results of
this service area for fiscal 2006 and 2005 are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations.

Effective December 31, 2005 we ceased
operating in the City of Augusta, Georgia upon expiration of our exclusive contract to provide medical transportation services to that area. We elected not to pursue renewal of this contract based upon the one-year contract term and stipulations
that would have been less beneficial to us. The financial results of this service area for fiscal 2006 and 2005 are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations.

Additionally, the results of operations for service areas where we have ceased operations during fiscal 2005 have been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for fiscal 2005.

For fiscal 2006 and 2005, net revenue associated with these discontinued service areas totaled $9.6 million and $55.3 million, respectively. Loss from discontinued
operations for fiscal 2006 was $5.9 million, which includes an income tax benefit of $3.1 million. Income from discontinued operations for fiscal 2005 was $3.5 million, which includes an income tax provision of $2.1 million. The loss from
discontinued operations in fiscal 2006 included $0.9 million of closure-related costs, primarily severance and lease termination charges, an additional $3.4 million in uncompensated care and a $1.0 million goodwill write-off related to the closure
of the New Jersey operation. The additional provisions were recorded based upon the Companys experience with accounts receivable collections for discontinued operations compared to historical levels. Income (loss) from discontinued operations
excludes the allocation of certain shared services costs such as human resources, financial services, risk management and legal services, among others. These ongoing services and associated costs will be redirected to support new markets or for the
expansion of existing service areas.

During fiscal 2006, we also recorded a charge of $2.5 million related to an ongoing government investigation into certain
of our former operations in the State of Texas which is included in loss from discontinued operations. See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Fiscal 2006 Compared To Fiscal 2005  Segments

Overview

We provide emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services, private fire protection services, primarily on a subscription fee basis, and a variety of other
services. We have four regionally-based reporting segments which correspond with the manner in which the associated operations are managed and evaluated by our senior management. These segments comprise operations within the following areas:



|        |  |

|        | 
|D       |  | California (medical transportation), Central Florida, Colorado, Oregon (medical transportation), Nebraska, South Dakota, Washington                                            

Each reporting segment provides medical transportation services while fire services are predominantly centered in
Segments B and C.

The accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements have also been followed in the preparation of
the accompanying financial information for each reporting segment. For management purposes, segment profitability is defined as income from continuing operations before depreciation and amortization, interest, income taxes and minority interests.
Additionally, corporate overhead allocations have been included within segment profits. Segment results presented below reflect continuing operations only.

The key drivers that impact net medical transportation revenues include rates charged for such services, payer mix, number of transports and government subsidies. These factors can vary significantly from market to market and also can
change over time. The main drivers of fire and other revenue are fire subscription rates and the number of subscribers.

Transportation rate increases contributed to a $0.4 million increase in net medical transportation and related
services revenue while a decline in the number of transports contributed to a $0.8 million decrease in net medical transportation and related services revenue. Segment As net revenue decreased primarily as a result of a change in payer mix in
certain markets and an increase in uncompensated care from 9.7 percent during fiscal 2005 to 10.5 percent during fiscal 2006 as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue primarily due to a change in collection patterns stemming from the
consolidation of regional billing locations to Syracuse and Buffalo, New York. The decrease in transports can be attributed to increased competition for non-emergency medical transportation services, specifically in our Alliance and Columbus, Ohio
markets as well as a decline in hospital patient census.

Operating margins improved principally due to effective management of payroll-related costs in
relation to transport volume, partially offset by higher other operating expenses.

Payroll-related expense as a percentage of net revenue decreased from
59.9 percent during fiscal 2005 to 57.8 percent during fiscal 2006 primarily due to reductions in temporary staffing, health insurance costs and workers compensation expense. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue grew from 20.5
percent during fiscal 2005 to 22.5 percent during the fiscal 2006 primarily driven by a $1.5 million increase in general liability insurance costs and a $0.6 million increase in fuel costs partially offset by declines in other miscellaneous
operating costs, none of which were individually significant.

Net/net EMS APC increased slightly due to rate increases and the change in payer mix in
certain markets.

Transportation rate increases did not contribute to the decrease in net medical transportation and related
services revenue while a decline in the number of transports contributed to a $0.7 million decrease in net medical transportation and related services revenue. Segment Bs medical transport and related services revenue decreased primarily as a
result of an increase in uncompensated care from 11.2 percent during fiscal 2005 to 13.7 percent during fiscal 2006, as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue, primarily due to a change in collection patterns stemming from the
consolidation of regional billing locations to Indiana, which disrupted collections, and an increase in private pay patients with lower collectibility in certain sectors of Tennessee, Florida and Indiana. Additionally, this segment experienced a
change in billing center management that caused a disruption in collections. In addition, the decrease in transports can be attributed to increased competition for non-emergency medical transportation services in Cincinnati, Ohio and Lexington,
Kentucky, as well as a decline in hospital patient census in Memphis,

Tennessee. Higher master fire contract fees and fire subscription rates contributed
to net revenue growth despite a slight decline in the number of fire subscriptions.

Operating margins increased due to operational efficiencies, primarily
lower other operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue.

Payroll related expense as a percentage of net revenue increased from 61.2 percent during
fiscal 2005 to 63.0 percent during fiscal 2006 primarily due to a $0.5 million reduction in workers compensation expense partially offset by higher scheduled overtime, fill-in wages and temporary staffing due to market-specific shortages of
paramedics and EMTs. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue declined from 23.5 percent during fiscal 2005 to 22.7 percent during fiscal 2006 primarily driven by a $1.1 million decrease in general liability insurance costs and
declines in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant, partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in fuel costs.

Transportation rate increases contributed to a $4.6 million increase in net medical transportation and related
services revenue while a increase in the number of transports contributed to an $11.1 million increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue. Same service area revenue accounted for $13.4 million of the increase in medical
transportation and related services revenue while the remaining $2.3 million resulted from our new service areas in Salt Lake City, Utah and Roswell, New Mexico. The gross increase in medical transportation revenue from rate increases was offset by
an increase in uncompensated care from 10.7 percent during fiscal 2005 to 11.5 percent during fiscal 2006 primarily due to a disruption in collections caused by Medicare patients transition to MA plans and an extension of the payment cycle
related to Medicaid payers in Arizona. In addition, rate increases that are not recoverable from private pay accounts have affected estimated uncompensated care in this segment. The increase in the number of medical transports was primarily a result
of the significant population growth experienced in the states in which Segment C operates. The increase in fire and other services revenue is primarily due to 5.7 percent growth in the number of fire subscriptions, higher fire subscription rates,
increased master fire rates, increased forestry fees and one-time Hurricane Rita relief revenue of $0.5 million recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

The increase in Segment Cs profit includes a $1.3 million gain on the sale of real estate located in Arizona during the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Excluding the gain on the sale of real estate, operating margins grew slightly by 60
basis points during fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005.

Payroll-related expense as a percentage of net revenue increased from 56.1 percent during fiscal
2005 to 57.2 percent during fiscal 2006 primarily due to the growth in transports which has placed constraints on the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel, resulting in increased utilization of overtime and temporary staffing. Other
operating expenses as a percentage of revenue increased from 24.2 percent during fiscal 2005 to 25.2 percent during fiscal 2006 primarily driven by a $1.2 million increase in professional fees associated with contract negotiations and franchise
protection efforts, a $1.0 million increase in vehicle maintenance expense due to an increase in the number of vehicles year over year to support additional transports, a $1.0 million increase in fuel costs and a $0.7million increase in operating
supplies partially offset by a slight decrease in insurance costs and declines in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant.

The increase in net/net EMS APC is a result of rate increases in certain markets partially offset by increased provision for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross revenue.

Same service area revenue accounted for $1.5 million of the increase in medical transportation and related
services revenue while the remaining $8.7 million resulted from our new service areas in Salem, Oregon, Tacoma, Washington and our new Orlando Regional contract. Approximately $1.5 million of the increase in same service area net medical
transportation and related services revenue was due to increased transports while the remainder was due to increased rates. Medical transportation revenue benefited from a decrease in uncompensated care from 19.3 percent during fiscal 2005 to 19.0
percent during fiscal 2006 primarily due to improved collections. Our new service areas in Salem, Oregon, Tacoma, Washington and our new Orlando Regional contract resulted in approximately 25,800 additional transports for fiscal 2006. The decline in
other services revenue is primarily due to consulting fees recognized in the prior year.

The increase in Segment Ds profit was primarily driven by
reductions in other operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue partially offset by an increase in the estimated uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue. The new Orlando Regional contract contributed to the
increase in operating margin as a result of economies of scale associated with higher utilization and redeployment of existing resources.

Payroll-related
expense as a percentage of net revenue increased slightly from 52.7 percent during fiscal 2005 to 53.4 percent during fiscal 2006 primarily due to an increase in fill-in wages and health insurance expense due to growth in transport volume. Other
operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from 36.8 percent during fiscal 2005 to 33.6 percent during fiscal 2006 primarily driven by a $1.1 million decrease in general liability insurance costs and decreases in other miscellaneous
operating costs, none of which were individually significant. This was partially offset by a $1.6 million increase in reimbursements to local ambulance companies that provide services to patients covered under capitated contracts with certain of our
hospital customers. We also experienced a $0.6 million increase in fuel costs.

Net revenue growth of $36.7
million, or 9.6 percent, resulted from a $30.8 million, or 9.4 percent increase in medical transportation and related services revenue and a $5.9 million, or 10.5 percent increase in fire and other services revenue.

As a percentage of net revenue, operating expenses were 220 basis points lower in fiscal 2005 compared to the prior year primarily due to a 130 basis point reduction in
payroll and employee benefits and an 80 basis point reduction in other operating expenses, all as a percentage of net revenue. These fluctuations are described in further detail below.

Income from continuing operations per diluted share of $3.56 for fiscal 2005 includes an increase in the average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period from 21.8 million shares at June 30,
2004 to 24.1 million shares at June 30, 2005 due to common shares issued as a result of stock option exercises as well as an increase in the number of unexercised stock options which were in the money at the end of the period. These
results reflect revenue and operating margin growth as well as an $85.2 million, or $3.53 per diluted share, reversal of tax valuation allowances and an $8.2 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, loss on early extinguishment of debt as discussed in
further detail below.

Medical Transportation and Related Services

Same service area revenue accounted for $29.1 million of the increase in medical transportation and related services revenue while the remaining $1.8 million resulted from revenues generated under the new contract in
Tacoma, Washington. Approximately $15.0 million of the increase in same-service area revenue related to increased transports and the balance of $14.1 million was due to an increase in rates.

The following table shows a comparison of consolidated transport volumes:

Medical transports in areas that we served in both fiscal 2005 and 2004 increased by approximately 36,700
transports, while medical transports related to our new contract in Tacoma, Washington totaled approximately 5,500 for fiscal 2005. The 7.2 percent increase in transports for our alternative transportation services business can be directly
attributed to growth in our non-emergency medical transportation business.

Consolidated net/net EMS APC for fiscal 2005 was $331 compared to $315 for
fiscal 2004. The 5.1 percent increase in net/net EMS APC is primarily a result of rate escalators and other general rate increases that are contained or allowed in certain contracts to provide EMS services as well as a favorable change in payer mix
in select markets.

Discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers (contractual allowances) related to continuing
operations, which are reflected as a reduction of gross medical transportation revenue, totaled $212.7 million and $166.2 million for fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. Such discounts represented 34.0 percent and 30.3 percent of gross medical
transportation and alternative transportation fees for fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. The increase of 370 basis points is primarily a result of an overall increase in rates, which we are unable to pass on to Medicare, Medicaid and certain
payers. Uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation services revenue was 12.8 percent and 14.2 percent for fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. The 140 basis point decrease primarily resulted from billing rate increases and
improved historical collection patterns, as well as the termination of lower rate contracts.

Fire and Other Services

The increase in fire and other services revenue is primarily due to fire subscription revenue growth totaling $3.6 million, or 10.2 percent, of which $2.0 million was
related to higher subscription rates and $1.6 million was related to an increase in the number of subscribers. Additionally, master fire contract revenue, which primarily relates to fire protection services at regional airports, grew $1.2 million or
9.9 percent over the previous year primarily as a result of rate increases in various fire contracts.

Operating Expenses

Payroll and Employee Benefits

The overall increase in payroll and employee benefits is related to higher management incentive expenses and
increased salary expense partially offset by lower workers compensation expense. Management incentives for fiscal 2005 include a one-time bonus of $1.8 million paid to certain members of management in conjunction with our debt refinancing,
$1.1 million related to an amendment to our CEOs employment agreement which allows him to participate in the fiscal 2005 management incentive program, and $1.6 million of increased incentive pay as a result of meeting certain fiscal 2005
operational and profitability goals. In addition, we paid bonuses of $1.35 million each to the CEO and CFO during fiscal 2005 related to the officers successfully completing the operational goals contemplated in the debt refinancing. These
operational goals included the reduction of insurance costs, entry into new markets, the positioning of the Company relative to covenants set forth in our new credit arrangements and other matters as the Board deemed relevant. Further consideration
was given to an unscheduled principal payment on our Term Loan B in May 2005 as allowed under the provisions of the 2005 Credit Facility.

Salary expense
for the year ended June 30, 2005 increased primarily due to greater medical transport activity, additional scheduled overtime and general wage rate increases.

During fiscal 2005, we incurred a $0.2 million premium adjustment related to a retrospective payroll audit for workers compensation insurance for the policy year ended April 30, 2004. During fiscal 2004, we received a refund of
$1.2 million related to a premium payroll audit for workers compensation insurance for the policy year ended April 30, 2003.

Over the past several
years we have worked diligently to close workers compensation claims as soon as possible. We have also worked to minimize future insurance-related losses through proactive risk management and workplace safety initiatives. These programs include the
implementation of ergonomic safety programs designed to reduce on-the-job injuries; and complementary return to work, fit for duty, and wellness programs. The progress toward these initiatives has given rise to favorable historical claims
experience, which, in part, resulted in a decrease to workers compensation expense of $3.0 million during fiscal 2005. Additionally, we recorded a $0.9 million receivable related to a retrospective rating adjustment for policy years ended
April 30, 2003 and 2004. These adjustments are reflected as reductions in payroll and employee benefits for year ended June 30, 2005.

Other
Operating Expenses

The increase in other operating expenses was principally due to higher professional fees of $2.8 million primarily related to our
efforts to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and increases of $2.0 million and $1.1 million in fuel expense and vehicle maintenance, respectively, driven by increases in the number of transports and the cost of fuel. These
increases were partially offset by a $5.3 million reduction in general liability insurance expense resulting from favorable historical claims experience during fiscal 2005.

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense is primarily due to a higher average effectiveinterest rate including a $2.1 million increase in non-cash interest expense related to the accretion of our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes partially offset by $0.8 million of penalty interest accrued during fiscal 2004 due to non-compliance with
covenants contained in our old credit facility agreement. See Liquidity and Capital Resources  Refinancing Activities for further discussion of our new financing structure.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

During fiscal 2005, net proceeds from our March 2005 refinancing
transaction were used to repay approximately $302.6 million of existing indebtedness. In connection therewith, we recorded $8.2 million of debt extinguishment costs in fiscal 2005. These costs included non-cash charges of $5.6 million related to the
write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the retired debt and $0.1 million related to unamortized discounts as well as cash redemption premiums of $2.5 million.

Minority Interest

The change in minority interest expense is due to net income in our joint venture with the
City of San Diego in fiscal 2005 compared to a net loss in fiscal 2004. Income was generated in the current year compared to the loss in the previous year primarily due to growth in net revenue as a result of increases in both rates and transports.

Income Tax Provision

During fiscal 2005, we recorded an $85.3 million income tax benefit related to continuing operations, of which $85.2 million was the result of the release of a valuation allowance that was offsetting our net deferred tax asset (primarily
our net operating loss carryforwards). The tax benefit associated with the valuation allowance release was partially offset by state income taxes and Federal Alternative Minimum Tax. Our tax provision for fiscal 2004 did not include any deferred tax
provision as a result of the valuation allowance. The fiscal 2004 tax provision was comprised solely of current state tax expense.

Discontinued
Operations

We ceased operating in two and four medical transportation service areas during 2006 and 2005, respectively, as a result of our
determination that these service areas no longer met our internal operational and profitability measures. We also ceased operating in one fire service area during fiscal 2005 as part of our strategic decision for our planned exit as the contracted
provider of fire protection services in this service area. The results of these service areas for fiscal 2005 and 2004 are included in income from discontinued operations as well as the results of service areas in which we ceased operating during
fiscal 2004 as described below. Additionally, the results of operations for service areas where we have ceased operations during fiscal 2004 have been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for fiscal 2004.

Net revenue for discontinued service areas totaled $55.3 million and $69.6 million for the fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. Excluding the allocation of certain fixed
overhead costs, these service areas generated income of $3.5 million and $8.8 million, net of income tax provision of $2.1 million and $0.5 million, in fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Segment As net revenue increased primarily as a result of increased transports.

Operating margins improved principally due to lower payroll-related costs as a percentage of net revenue partially offset by higher other operating expenses, as a
percentage of net revenue. Payroll-related expense as a percentage of net revenue decreased from 63.8 percent during fiscal 2004 to 59.9 percent during fiscal 2005 primarily due to reductions in health insurance costs and workers compensation
expense partially offset by higher fill-in wages. Other operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue grew from 20.2 percent during fiscal 2004 to 20.5 percent during the fiscal 2005 primarily driven by a $0.5 million increase in fuel costs and
increases other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant, partially offset by a reduction in general liability insurance costs of $1.0 million.

Net/net EMS APC increased slightly due to rate increases and the change in payer mix in certain markets.

The increase in the number of transports contributed to a $2.3 million increase in net medical transportation and
related services revenue while medical transportation rate increases contributed to a $2.3 million increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue. Medical transportation revenue also increased due to a decrease in uncompensated
care from 12.9 percent during fiscal 2004 to 11.2 percent during fiscal 2005 primarily due to improved collection patterns. Higher master fire contract fees and fire subscription rates combined with growth in the number of fire subscriptions also
contributed to net revenue growth.

Operating margins increased slightly due to lower uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation
revenue and slightly lower payroll related costs.

Payroll related expense as a percentage of net revenue decreased from 62.8 percent during fiscal 2004 to
61.2 percent during fiscal 2005 primarily due to a $0.3 million reduction in workers compensation expense partially offset by higher scheduled overtime, vacation and management incentive expense. Other operating expenses as a percentage of
revenue decreased from 23.6 percent during fiscal 2004 to 23.5 percent during fiscal 2005 primarily driven by a $0.6 million increase in fuel costs and increased first-responder fees partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in general liability
insurance costs.

Approximately $11.2 million of the increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue is a result
of an increase in rates and approximately $8.5 million is a result of a greater number of transports. Medical transportation revenue also increased due to a decrease in uncompensated care from 11.5 percent during fiscal 2004 to 10.7 percent during
fiscal 2005, as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue, primarily due to improved collection patterns. The increase in the number of medical transports was primarily a result of the significant population growth experienced in the
states in which Segment C operates. The increase in fire and other services revenue is primarily due to the 6.6 percent growth in the number of fire subscriptions as well as higher fire subscription rates.

Payroll related expense as a percentage of net revenue decreased from 58.5 percent during fiscal 2004 to 56.1 percent during fiscal 2005 primarily due to payroll
efficiencies achieved while servicing a greater number of transports. Other operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue remained flat year over year.

The increase in net/net EMS APC is a result of rate increases in certain markets in which Segment C operates.

|# | Variances over 100% not displayed.
|-- | ----------------------------------

The increase in Segment Ds net
revenue is primarily due to 6.2 percent growth in the number of transports and higher revenue from master contracts with hospitals and healthcare facilities. These increases are slightly offset by an increase in uncompensated care as a percentage of
gross medical transportation revenue from 19.1 percent during fiscal 2004 to 19.3 percent during fiscal 2005 primarily due to rate increases and a change in payer mix in certain markets. Our new service area in Tacoma, Washington resulted in 5,500
additional transports and contributed to higher net revenue in fiscal 2005. The increase in other services revenue is primarily due to consulting fees recognized during fiscal 2005.

Payroll-related expense as a percentage of net revenue decreased from 53.1 percent during fiscal 2004 to 52.7 percent during fiscal 2005 primarily due payroll efficiencies achieved while providing a greater number of
transports. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from 38.5 percent during fiscal 2004 to 36.8 percent during fiscal 2005 primarily driven by a $1.3 million decrease in general liability insurance costs and decreases in other
miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant. This was partially offset by a $0.9 million increase in reimbursements to local ambulance companies that provide services to patients covered under capitated contracts with
certain of our hospital customers and a $0.4 million increase in fuel costs.

self-pay patients and the correction of certain accounting practice errors relating to inventory, see Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements respectively, and Explanatory Note. The preparation of our financial statements requires
management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those
related to revenue recognition, general liability and workers compensation claim reserves and deferred tax asset recoverability. We base our estimates on historical experience and various assumptions we believe are reasonable under the
circumstances. The results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.

We have identified the following accounting policies as critical to understanding our results of operations. The discussion below is not
intended to represent a comprehensive list of our accounting policies. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.

Medical Transportation Revenue Recognition

Medical transportation
fees are recognized when services are provided and are recorded net of discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers and net of estimates for uncompensated care. Because of the length of the collection cycle with respect to
medical transportation fees, it is necessary to estimate the amount of these adjustments at the time revenue is recognized. The collectibility of these fees is analyzed using historical collection experience within each service area. Using
collection data resident in our billing system, we estimate the percentage of gross medical transportation fees that will not be collected and record provisions for both discounts and uncompensated care. The portion of the provision allocated to
discounts is based on historical

write-offs relating to such discounts as a percentage of the related gross revenue recognized for each service area. The ratio is then applied to current
period gross medical transportation fees to determine the portion of the provision that will be recorded as a reduction in revenue. The remaining amount of the provision is classified as uncompensated care. If the historical data used to calculate
these estimates does not properly reflect the ultimate collectibility of the current revenue stream, revenue could be overstated or understated. Discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers related to continuing
operations, which are reflected as a reduction of medical transportation revenue, totaled $249.7 million, $214.5 million and $167.3 million for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. As a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue,
contractual discounts were 35.3 percent, 34.0 percent and 30.3 percent for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Uncompensated care can be affected by
a variety of factors, including the number of patients we transport that do not pay us for the medical services we provide, a sustained disruption in collections, and the quality of our billing documentation and procedures. The estimate for
uncompensated care that is applied to gross medical transportation fee revenue is calculated as the difference between the total expected collection percentage less contractual discounts described above. If historical data used to calculate these
estimates do not properly reflect the ultimate collectibility of the current revenue stream, the estimate for uncompensated care may be overstated or understated. The estimate for uncompensated care on medical transportation revenue from continuing
operations totaled $96.7 million, $80.3 million and $77.8 million for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation services fees was 13.8 percent, 12.8 percent and 14.2
percent for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. See Explanatory Note and Note 2 to the financial statements in this Amendment.

A one percent change
in our estimated collection percentage would change net revenue by $4.5 million for fiscal 2006.

Insurance Claim Reserves

In the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to accident, injury and professional liability claims. Additionally, certain of our operational contracts, as well
as laws in certain of the areas where we operate, require that specified amounts of insurance coverage be maintained. In order to minimize the risk of exposure and comply with such legal and contractual requirements, we carry a broad range of
insurance policies, including comprehensive general liability, automobile, property damage, professional, workers compensation and other lines of coverage. We typically renew each of these policies annually and purchase limits of coverage at
levels management believes are appropriate, taking into account historical and projected claim trends, reasonable protection of our assets and operations and the economic conditions in the insurance market. Depending upon the specific line of
coverage, the total limits of insurance maintained may be achieved through a combination of primary policies, excess policies and self-insurance.

We
retain certain levels of exposure with respect to our general liability and workers compensation programs and purchase coverage from third party insurers for exposures in excess of those levels. In addition to expensing premiums and other
costs relating to excess coverage, we establish reserves for claims, both reported and incurred but not reported, on a gross basis using currently available information as well as our historical claims experience. We also recognize a receivable from
our insurers for amounts expected to be recovered in excess of our retention. We periodically evaluate the financial capacity of our insurers to assess the recoverability of the related receivables.

We engage third-party administrators (TPAs) to manage claims resulting from our general liability and workers compensation programs. The TPAs establish
initial loss reserve estimates at the time a claim is reported and then monitor the development of the claim over time to confirm that such estimates continue to be appropriate. Management periodically reviews the claim reserves established by the
TPAs and engages independent actuaries to assist with the evaluation of the adequacy of its reserves on a semi-annual basis. We adjust our claim reserves with an associated charge or credit to expense as new information on the underlying claim is
obtained.

Reserves related to workers compensation claims totaled $12.6 million and $12.8 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Reserves related to general liability claims totaled $19.5 million and $21.6 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Deferred Tax Assets
and Liabilities

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded
for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected
to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a tax rate change on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date. We record valuation allowances to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amount considered more likely than not to be realized. Changes in estimates of future taxable income can materially change the amount of such valuation
allowances.

Asset Impairment

We
review our property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable by comparing the carrying amount of such assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash
flows associated with them. In cases where the estimated undiscounted cash flows are less than the related carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets. The fair
value is determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved.

Our goodwill
balances are reviewed for impairment annually (and interim periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related asset may be impaired) using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test, used to identify
potential impairment, compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered to be impaired and
the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test must be performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second
step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a
business combination. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. We perform our annual impairment test on June 30.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity
needs are primarily to service long-term debt, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and business development activities. Our ability to generate cash from operating activities is subject to, among other things, our operating
performance as well as general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control.

We
believe that cash flow from operations coupled with existing cash balances and funds available through our $20.0 million Revolving Credit Facility and $45.0 million Letter of Credit Facility will be adequate to fund our operating and capital needs
through June 30, 2007. To the extent that actual results or events differ from our financial projections or business plans, our liquidity may be adversely impacted.

Cash Flow

Throughout the year, we experience significant periodic outflows of cash for debt service, capital
expenditures, workers compensation and general liability insurance premium deposits, 401(k) matching contributions and management bonuses. These outflows include $6.2 million in semi-annual interest payments on our 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes
payable on September 15 and March 15, as well as estimated quarterly interest payments on our Term Loan B of approximately $2.0 million. See Explanatory Note to this Amendment for further discussion.

Deposits on our annual workers compensation and general liability insurance programs are typically paid in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. These deposits
totaled $2.6 million and $5.8 million in fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decrease in our insurance deposits was primarily due to a delay in funding our excess general liability program negotiated and effective June 2006. In May 2006,
Reliance Insurance Company returned $1.2 million of cash collateral representing the remaining balance of our workers compensation cash insurance deposits held by this carrier, and in May 2006, we received $4.4 million of refunds related to
our retrospective workers compensation policy for the policy year ended April 30, 2005 in the third and fourth quarter, respectively.

During
fiscal 2006, we made unscheduled principal payments on our Term Loan B totaling $21.0 million, made payments totaling $16.2 million for capital expenditures, made payments under the 2005 Management Incentive Program of $4.0 million and funded the
calendar 2004 employer match 401(k) liability of $1.6 million. The Term Loan B unscheduled principal payments discussed above satisfy the excess cash flow sweep requirement under the Term Loan B facility as of September 2006.

During fiscal 2005, we made a $7.0 million unscheduled principal payment on our Term Loan B which was applied to the 1 percent annual principal payment requirement;
therefore, no principal payments are required until maturity in March 2011. Additionally, we made a one-time payment of $1.5 million to our CEO under the terms of his employment agreement, paid bonuses to certain members of management totaling $1.8
million associated with the refinancing of our debt in fiscal 2005 and paid bonuses of $1.35 million each to the CEO and CFO during fiscal 2005 related to the successful completion of operational goals contemplated in the debt refinancing.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $27.1 million in fiscal 2006 compared with $24.9 million in fiscal 2005. The $2.2 million or 8.8% increase is primarily attributable to the net impact of an $85.8
million decrease in net income and a $2.0 million increase in net operating assets offset by a $86.1 million increase in non-cash charges. The decrease in net income is primarily attributable to the recognition of $85.2 million of deferred tax
benefits in fiscal 2005 due to managements determination that the related deferred tax assets, primarily those relating to the Companys net operating loss carryovers, would be realized in the future. The increase in net operating assets
is primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable due to growth in medical transportation revenue and slowdown in collections from patients covered by certain forms of government insurance offset by reductions in amounts on deposit
with the Companys insurers. The increase in non-cash expenses is primarily attributable to the recognition in fiscal 2005 of the previously mentioned deferred tax benefits, an increase in the estimate for uncompensated care caused by the
previously mentioned growth in medical transportation revenue and lengthening of the collection cycle and the increase in non-cash interest accrued on the Companys 12.75% Senior Discount Notes during fiscal 2006 which were issued in March 2005
offset by the absence in fiscal 2006 of the non-cash portion of the debt extinguishment charge recognized in fiscal 2005 and the classification of tax benefits from stock option exercises in operating activities in fiscal 2005; as a result of the
adoption of SFAS 123(R) effective July 1, 2005, such tax benefits are now classified within financing activities.

We had working capital of $40.8
million at June 30, 2006, including cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $9.2 million, compared to working capital of $39.7 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $17.7 million, at June 30, 2005. The increase in
working capital as of June 30, 2006 is primarily related to higher net accounts receivable combined with lower accrued liabilities partially offset by lower cash balances related to unscheduled principal payments made during the year.

Net cash provided by operating activities was higher in fiscal 2005 than fiscal 2004, as net income in 2005 included the accretion of our 12.75% Senior
Discount Notes and the related amortization of deferred financing costs which represent non-cash interest expense that is included in net income but does not require cash payments during the current period and $5.7 million related to the loss on
early extinguishment of debt discussed in the refinancing activities section below. In addition, net cash was provided by fluctuations in other operating assets and liabilities. In the normal course of business, these accounts can vary significantly
due to the amount and timing of various payments.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities includes the net purchase of short-term investments, capital expenditures and proceeds from the sale of property and equipment. During fiscal 2006, we began investing excess funds in
highly liquid, short-term auction rate securities with net purchases totaling $6.2 million during the period. We had capital expenditures totaling $16.2 million and $12.5 million for fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. The $3.7 million increase in
current year capital expenditures is primarily due to entry into the Salt Lake City, Utah market. Additionally, we received proceeds from the sale of real estate of $1.6 million primarily due to the sale of real estate in Arizona.

We had capital expenditures totaling $12.5 million and $8.6 million for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The $3.9 million increase in fiscal
2005 was comprised of $2.6 million related to purchases of additional ambulances and related equipment and $0.6 million related to the purchase of fire trucks and related equipment. Ambulances purchased to serve the new Tacoma, Washington and Salem,
Oregon 911 contracts comprised approximately $2.0 million of these expenditures.

Financing Activities

Financing activities include the issuance and repayment of debt, tax benefit from the exercise of options, proceeds from the issuance of common stock, minority shareholder distributions and cash paid for debt issuance costs. During fiscal
2006, we made unscheduled principal payments on our Term Loan B totaling $21.0 million. We anticipate annual interest savings of approximately $1.6 million as a result of these payments. Additionally, we made $0.3 million in distributions to the
City of San Diego, the minority shareholder in our medical services joint venture. The reduction in current year stock option exercises contributed to a $2.3 million decrease in cash provided by the issuance of common stock, which was offset by $0.9
million of tax benefits from the exercise of such options; prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), such amounts were included in net cash provided by operating activities.

During fiscal 2005, cash used in financing activities increased compared to fiscal 2004 primarily due to a $7.0 million unscheduled principal payment on our Term Loan B. We had repayments of our prior Senior Notes and
prior credit facility totaling $302.6 million offset by net proceeds of $310.2 million received in connection with our 2005 refinancing transaction. These net proceeds are comprised of $125.0 million from our Senior Subordinated Notes offering,
$50.2 million from our Senior Discount Notes offering and $135.0 million under our 2005 Credit Facility. In addition, we paid $13.5 million in costs associated with securing the new debt which have been capitalized and will be amortized to interest
expense over the term of the debt. See further discussion under Refinancing Activities below. Also, increased stock option exercises during fiscal 2005 contributed to a $2.6 million increase in cash provided by the issuance of common stock.

Fiscal 2005 Refinancing Activities

During March 2005,
we completed a refinancing transaction whereby our newly formed wholly owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro Operating Company, LLC (Rural/Metro LLC), entered into new senior secured credit facilities (collectively, the 2005 Credit
Facility) in an aggregate amount of up to $190.0 million, comprised of a $135.0 million Term Loan B facility due March 2011 (the Term Loan B), a $20.0 million revolving credit facility due March 2010 (the Revolving Credit
Facility) and a $35.0 million prefunded letter of credit facility (the Letter of Credit Facility). In addition, Rural/Metro LLC and its newly formed wholly owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro (Delaware) Inc. (Rural/Metro
Inc.) issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount 9.875% senior subordinated notes due 2015 (the Senior Subordinated Notes) and we issued $93.5 million aggregate principal amount at maturity (gross proceeds of $50.2 million)
12.75% senior discount notes due 2016 (the Senior Discount Notes). The Senior Subordinated Notes and the Senior Discount Notes were sold in private placement transactions and have been subsequently registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended.

During fiscal 2005, net proceeds from our March 2005 refinancing transaction were used to repay approximately $302.6 million of existing
indebtedness. In connection therewith, we recorded $8.2 million of debt extinguishment costs in fiscal 2005. These costs included non-cash charges of $5.6 million related to the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the retired debt and
$0.1 million related to unamortized discounts as well as cash redemption premiums of $2.5 million.

Credit Facility Amendments

Effective June 30, 2005, the Company executed an amendment to the 2005 Credit Facility (Amendment No. 1) whereby the definition of the term
Fixed Charges was modified to exclude unscheduled principal payments. Additionally, the limitation on capital expenditures for fiscal year 2005 was increased from $12.25 million to $13.25 million.

On December 27, 2005, we amended certain terms, conditions and covenants contained in our 2005 Credit Facility (Amendment No. 2). Specifically,
Amendment No. 2 permits us to use net proceeds from the issuance of qualified equity to repurchase our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due March 2016 (the Senior Discount Notes) issued by Rural/Metro Corporation and/or our 9.875%
Senior Subordinated Notes due March 2015 (the Senior Subordinated Notes) issued by Rural/Metro LLC and its subsidiary, Rural/Metro (Delaware) Inc. (collectively referred to as the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers), and
further allows us to use up to $10.0 million of cash on hand to purchase any remaining Senior Discount Notes in their entirety. Following any redemption of the Senior Discount Notes, our total leverage ratio may not exceed 4.0 to 1.0.

In addition, Amendment No. 2 modified the existing covenant regarding permitted acquisitions by increasing the aggregate limit for acquisitions to $40.0 million and
the individual limit for permitted acquisitions to $10.0 million, subject to an exception to allow us flexibility to exercise an existing option to acquire a medical transportation services entity in Las Vegas, Nevada within the next two years. The
purchase option first becomes exercisable in 2006 for a one-year period at a purchase price that is the greater of $12.0 million or 6.9 times the entitys EBITDA for the 12-month period preceding the purchase date. Amendment No. 2 also
modified certain other 2005 Credit facility covenants including an increase in the permitted level of annual capital expenditures.

##### Table of Contents

On May 5, 2006, we amended certain terms and conditions contained in our 2005 Credit Facility (Amendment
No. 3). Specifically, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on our Term Loan B from LIBOR plus 2.50 percent to LIBOR plus 2.25 percent. Additionally, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on our Letter of
Credit Facility from 2.50 percent to 2.25 percent. As permitted under the original Credit Facility Agreement, we also expanded our Letter of Credit Facility from $35.0 million to $45.0 million. We anticipate that these modifications will result in
annual interest savings of approximately $0.4 million.

Debt Covenants

The 2005 Credit Facility, Senior Subordinated Notes and Senior Discount Notes include various financial and non-financial covenants applicable to the Companys wholly-owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro LLC as well as
quarterly and annual financial reporting obligations.

Specifically, the 2005 Credit Facility, as amended, requires Rural/Metro LLC and its subsidiaries to
meet certain financial tests, including a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum total leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The 2005 Credit Facility also contains covenants which among other things limit the incurrence of
additional indebtedness, dividends, transactions with affiliates, asset sales, acquisitions, mergers, prepayments of other indebtedness, liens and encumbrances, capital expenditures, business activities limitations on the Company, as a holding
company, and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements.

We were in compliance with all of our covenants under our 2005 Credit Facility at
June 30, 2006. Due to the restatement of the financial statements, we did not timely file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, as disclosed on Form 12b-25 filed on February 12, 2007. As a result, we
received a notice of default on February 22, 2007 from the trustee of its 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015, and its 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due 2016. Any default under the Indentures that govern the notes also constitutes an
event of default under the 2005 Credit Facility and could lead to an acceleration of the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the 2005 Credit Facility, unless a waiver is obtained. On March 13, 2007, we obtained a waiver under the
2005 Credit Facility for any defaults relating to the restatement and the untimely filing of this Form 10-Q. In addition, any default under the notes relating to the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December
31, 2006, will be cured within the 60-day cure period (expires April 23, 2007) upon the filing of such report with the SEC, which we anticipate will occur on the same day that this Amendment is filed. See Explanatory Note to this Amendment.

In the table above, interest payments have been calculated using the following interest assumptions; Senior
Discount Notes at 12.75% per year beginning in 2010, Senior Subordinated Notes at 9.875% per year, $97.0 million of the Term Loan B at 7.50% per year, $10.0 million of the Term Loan B at 7.40% per year, Revolving Credit Facility
commitment fee at 0.50% per year, Letter of Credit participation fee at 2.65% per year and Letter of Credit fronting fee at 0.125% per year.

As discussed in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements, we make annual contributions to our defined benefit pension plan as determined to be required by the plans independent actuary. We expect to contribute $2.2 million to
our defined benefit pension plan during fiscal 2007. We are currently unable to estimate our expected future contributions in excess of one year.

Additionally, as discussed in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, we are subject to accident, injury and professional liability claims as a result of the nature of our business and the day-to-day operation of our vehicle fleet.
The related future claims payments are estimated on a semi-annual basis by our independent actuaries. Actuarial projected loss payments have been determined to be $7.6 million during fiscal 2007, $5.2 million during fiscal 2008, $3.4 million during
fiscal 2009 and $6.3 million thereafter.

EBITDA

EBITDA is a
key indicator that management uses to evaluate our operating performance. While EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an indicator of
operating performance or an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, we believe this measure is useful to investors in assessing our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. This
calculation may differ in method of calculation from similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table sets forth our EBITDA for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, as well as a reconciliation to cash
provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure under generally accepted accounting principles (in thousands):

Fiscal 2006 consolidated EBITDA increased over fiscal 2005 by $7.1 million due to the negative impact of an $8.2
million loss on early extinguishment of debt in fiscal 2005. Additionally, a gain on the sale of real estate located in Arizona contributed $1.3 million to EBITDA in fiscal 2006.

For fiscal 2005, consolidated EBITDA of $47.1 million decreased $0.9 million, from $48.0 million in fiscal 2004. The decrease can be primarily attributed to the loss on early extinguishment of debt of $8.2 million, of
which $5.7 million was non-cash.

Insurance Programs

Many of our operational contracts, as well as laws in certain of the areas where we operate, require that we carry specified amounts of insurance coverage. Additionally, in the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to accident,
injury and professional liability claims as a result of the nature of our business and the day-to-day operation of our vehicle fleet. In order to minimize our risk of exposure, and to comply with such legal and contractual requirements, we carry a
broad range of insurance policies, including comprehensive general liability, automobile, property damage, professional, workers compensation and other lines of coverage. We typically renew each of these policies annually and purchase limits
of coverage at levels we believe are appropriate, taking into account historical and projected claim trends, reasonable protection of our assets and operations and the economic conditions in the insurance market. Depending upon the specific line of
coverage, the total limits of insurance maintained by us may be achieved through a combination of primary policies, excess policies and self-insurance. See Risk Factors  Claims against us could exceed our insurance coverage and we may
not have coverage for certain claims.

We retain certain levels of exposure with respect to our general liability and workers compensation programs and
purchase coverage from third party insurers for exposures in excess of those levels. In addition to expensing premiums and other costs relating to excess coverage, we establish reserves for claims, both reported and incurred but not reported, on a
gross basis using currently available information as well as our historical claims experience. We also recognize a receivable from our insurers for amounts expected to be recovered in excess of our retention. We regularly evaluate the financial
capacity of our insurers to assess the recoverability of the related receivables. See Risk Factors  Our claim reserves may prove inadequate.

We engage third-party administrators (TPAs) to manage claims resulting from our general liability and workers compensation programs. The TPAs establish initial loss reserve estimates at the time a claim is reported and
then monitor the development of the claim over time to confirm that such estimates continue to be appropriate. Management periodically reviews the claim reserves established by the TPAs and engage independent actuaries to assist with the evaluation
of the adequacy of our reserves on an annual basis. We adjust our claim reserves with an associated charge or credit to expense as new information on the underlying claims is obtained.

In prior years, certain insurers required us to deposit cash into designated loss funds in order to fund claim payments within our retention limits. Total cash deposits relating to our insurance programs were $3.8
million and $11.1 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. As of June 30, 2005, we replaced collateral previously held by the insurers with letters of credit in support of our fiscal 2006 policies which began on May 1, 2005.
Letters of credit in support of our insurance programs issued under our Credit Facility discussed in Note 10 totaled $39.5 million and $32.8 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

General Liability

We have historically maintained insurance
policies for comprehensive general liability, automobile liability and professional liability. Throughout this report, these three types of policies are referred to collectively as the general liability policies. These policies are
typically renewed annually. We engage independent actuaries to assist us with our evaluation of the adequacy of our general liability claim reserves. If the ultimate development of these claims is significantly different than has been estimated, the
reserves for general liability claims could be overstated or understated. See Risk Factors  Our claim reserves may prove inadequate.

A
summary of activity in our general liability claim reserves, the current portion of which is included in accrued liabilities and the non-current portion of which is included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet, is as follows (in
thousands):

Over the past two years we have worked diligently to close our outstanding general liability claims. We have also
worked to minimize future losses through proactive risk management and workplace safety initiatives, including the implementation of Drivecam technology in the ambulance fleet. The progress towards these initiatives has given rise to favorable
historical claims experience, which, in part, resulted in a reduction in our reserves by $2.8 million and $3.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Workers Compensation

We have historically maintained insurance policies for workers compensation liability. We are required by law and by most of our operational contracts to maintain minimum statutory limits of workers
compensation insurance. These policies are typically renewed annually. We engage independent actuaries to assist with our evaluation of the adequacy of our workers compensation claim reserves. If the ultimate development of these claims is
significantly different than has been estimated, the reserves for workers compensation claims could be overstated or understated. See Risk Factors  Our claim reserves may prove inadequate.

The following is a summary of activity in our workers compensation claim reserves, the current portion of which is included in accrued liabilities and the
non-current portion of which is included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet (in thousands):

For annual policy years prior to May 1, 2002 and subsequent to May 1, 2005, our workers compensation
policies include a deductible obligation with no annual aggregate limit. Loss provisions relating to reported claims as well as for claims incurred but not reported applicable to these policy years are based on currently available information as
well as our historical claims experience. Amounts receivable from insurers for losses in excess of our deductible obligation are also recorded.

the policy years ended April 30, 2003, 2004 and 2005, we purchased workers compensation coverage under retrospectively rated policies whereby the related premiums are subject to adjustment at certain intervals based on subsequent reviews of
actual losses incurred as well as payroll amounts. We determined that the policies for the policy years ended April 30, 2003 and 2004 effectively transferred the risk of loss to the insurer. As a result, the cost applicable to those policy
years consisted entirely of the related premium expense. During fiscal 2004, a premium refund applicable to the policy year ended April 30, 2003 was received in the amount of $1.2 million and was recognized as a reduction of workers
compensation expense. Additionally, during fiscal 2005, a payroll audit applicable to the policy year ended April 30, 2004 was completed and resulted in additional premiums and related workers compensation expense of $0.2 million. Finally,
during fiscal 2006 and 2005, we reduced our estimated premium refunds by $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, relating to these policy years based upon an updated loss assessment prepared by our independent actuaries.

With respect to our workers compensation policy for the policy year ended April 30, 2005, we determined that the risk of loss was not effectively transferred to the
insurer. As a result, we recorded a deposit for amounts paid to the insurer during the policy period in excess of the insurers identified premiums along with a corresponding insurance claim reserve. These amounts are periodically revalued as claims
are paid under the policy. During May 2006, we received a partial refund of our deposit in the amount of $4.4 million as a result of our improved claims experience. Such improved claims experience also resulted in a $1.3 million reduction in our
related claim reserves during fiscal 2006. As of June 30, 2006 and 2005, our deposit balances for the retrospective policy year ended April 30, 2005 were $2.5 million and $7.6 million, respectively. At June 30, 2006 and 2005, our
claim reserves for this policy were $3.0 million and $5.5 million, respectively.

Reliance and Legion

During fiscal years 1992 through 2002, we purchased certain portions of our workers compensation coverage from Reliance Insurance Company and Legion Insurance Company. See Risk Factors  Two insurance companies with which
we have previously done business are in financial distress as well as Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements.

Indemnifications

We are a party to a variety of agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business pursuant to which we may be obligated to indemnify the other
parties for certain liabilities that arise out of or relate to the subject matter of the agreements. Some of the agreements entered into by us require us to indemnify the other party against losses due to property damage including environmental
contamination, personal injury, failure to comply with applicable laws, our negligence or willful misconduct or breach of representations and warranties and covenants.

Additionally, some of our agreements with customers require us to provide certain assurances related to the performance of our services. Such assurances, from time to time, obligate us to; (i) pay penalties for
failure to meet response times or other requirements, (ii) lease, sell or assign equipment or facilities (either temporarily or permanently) in the event of uncured material defaults or other certain circumstances, or (iii) provide surety
bonds or letters of credit issued in favor of the customer to cover costs resulting, under certain circumstances, from an uncured material default or transition to a new service provider. With respect to such surety bonds, we are also required to
indemnify the surety company for losses paid as a result of any claims made against such bonds.

We provide for indemnification of directors, officers and
other persons in accordance with limited liability agreements, certificates of incorporation, bylaws, articles of association or similar organizational documents, as the case may be. We maintain directors and officers insurance which
should enable us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.

In addition to the above, from time to time we provide standard representations and
warranties to counterparties in contracts in connection with sales of our securities and the engagement of financial advisors and also provide indemnities that protect the counterparties to these contracts in the event they suffer damages as a
result of a breach of such representations and warranties or in certain other circumstances relating to the sale of securities or their engagement by us.

While our future obligations under certain agreements may contain limitations on liability for indemnification, other agreements do not contain such limitations and under such agreements it is not possible to predict the maximum potential
amount of future payments due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by us under any of these indemnities have not had a material effect
on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Additionally, we do not believe that any amounts that we may be required to pay under these indemnities in the future will be material to our business, financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows.

Subsequent Events

On
July 25, 2006, we were notified by the Town of Paradise Valley that it desired to terminate its contract for fire protection services effective June 30, 2007. The Town cited its location in the center of a growing urban area and its desire
to transition services to the City of Phoenix Fire Department as primary reasons for its decision. We currently provide fire protection services on a subscription-fee basis to individual property owners in Paradise Valley.



|ITEM 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
|-------- | -----------------------------------------------------------

Our primary exposure to market risk consists of changes in interest rates on our borrowing activities. Under our 2005 Credit Facility, amounts outstanding under Term Loan B bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.25 percent and amounts drawn under
our Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 3.25 percent. Based on current amounts outstanding under Term Loan B, a 1 percent increase in the LIBOR rate would increase our interest expense on an annual basis by approximately $1.1
million. The remainder of our debt is primarily at fixed interest rates. We monitor the risk associated with interest rate changes and may enter into hedging transactions, such as interest rate swap agreements, to mitigate the related exposure.

have completed integrated audits of Rural/Metro Corporations 2006 and 2005 consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006, and an audit of its 2004 consolidated financial
statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.

Consolidated financial statements

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying
index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Rural/Metro Corporation and its subsidiaries at June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended June 30, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements 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 of financial statements 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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated its 2006, 2005 and 2004 consolidated financial statements.

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts
related to self-pay patients in the quarter ended December 31, 2006.

Internal control over financial reporting

Also, we have audited managements assessment, included in Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A, that
Rural/Metro Corporation did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006, because of the effect of ineffective controls over the classification of certain durable medical supply items within inventory,
based on criteria established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective
internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on managements assessment and on the effectiveness of the
Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting 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 effective internal control over financial
reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating managements assessment, testing and
evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A companys internal control over financial reporting 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. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
(iii) 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 or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The following material weakness has been identified and included in managements assessment. As of June 30, 2006, the Company did not maintain
effective controls over the classification of certain durable medical supply items within inventory. Specifically, the Company did not have effective review procedures to detect that certain durable medical supply items were improperly included
inventory. This control deficiency resulted in the restatement of the Companys fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 annual consolidated financial statements, the interim consolidated financial statements for each of the quarters within the fiscal years
in 2006 and 2005, and the interim consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. Additionally, this control deficiency could result in a material misstatement of inventory and operating expenses that would result in
a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. This material weakness
was considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2006 consolidated financial statements, and our opinion regarding the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial
reporting does not affect our opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Management and we previously concluded that the Company maintained
effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006. However, management has subsequently determined that the material weakness described above existed as of June 30, 2006. Accordingly, Managements Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting has been restated and our present opinion on internal control over financial reporting, as presented herein, is different from that expressed in our previous report.

In our opinion, managements assessment that Rural/Metro Corporation did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006,
is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. Also, in our opinion, because of the effect of the material weakness described above on the achievement
of the objectives of the control criteria, Rural/Metro Corporation has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework
issued by the COSO.

RURAL/METRO CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) The Company and its Significant Accounting
Policies

Nature of Business and Operations

Rural/Metro Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) is a leading provider of medical transportation services, which consist primarily of emergency and non-emergency medical
transportation services. These medical transportation services are provided under contracts with governmental entities, hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare facilities and organizations. The Company also provides private fire protection and
related services on a subscription fee basis to residential and commercial property owners and under long-term contracts with fire districts, industrial sites and airports. These services consist primarily of fire suppression, fire prevention and
first responder medical care.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and a majority-owned subsidiary which it controls. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated. Investments in companies that represent less than 20 percent of the related voting stock are carried at cost.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates have been used by management in
conjunction with the measurement of discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers, the estimate for uncompensated care, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, workers compensation and general liability claim
reserves, fair values of reporting units for purposes of goodwill impairment testing and future cash flows associated with long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments, which
potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with federally insured institutions and monitors the amount of credit exposure with any one
institution. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the large number of customers and their geographical dispersion.

Reclassifications of Financial Information

Certain financial information relating to prior years has been reclassified to conform to the
current year presentation.

Net Revenue

Medical
transportation fees are recognized as services are provided and are recorded net of estimated discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers and net of estimates for uncompensated care. Such discounts applicable to
continuing operations, which totaled $247.5 million, $212.7 million and $166.2 million in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and estimated for uncompensated care, which totaled $96.7 million, $80.3 million and $77.8 million in fiscal 2006,
2005 and 2004, respectively, are reflected as reductions to revenue in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Ambulance subscription fees, which are generally received in advance, are deferred and recognized on a pro rata basis over
the term of the subscription agreement, which is generally one year. See Note 2 to the financial statements.

Revenue generated under fire protection
service contracts is recognized over the life of the contract. Subscription fees, which are generally received in advance, are deferred and recognized on a pro rata basis over the term of the subscription agreement, which is generally one year.
Additionally, the Company charges an enrollment fee for new subscribers under its fire protection service contracts. Such fees are deferred and recognized over the estimated customer relationship period of nine years. Other revenue primarily
consists of dispatch, fleet, billing, training and home health care service fees, which are recognized when the services are provided.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Under the Companys cash management practices, outstanding checks are netted against
cash when there is a sufficient balance of cash available in the Companys bank accounts to cover the outstanding amount and the right of offset exists. Where there is no right of offset against cash balances and a form of overdraft protection
does not exist, outstanding checks are classified as accounts payable within the consolidated balance sheet and the change in the related balances is reflected in operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Overdraft balances of $1.3 million were included in accounts payable in the Companys consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2006. There were no overdraft
balances at June 30, 2005.

Short-term Investments

The Companys short-term investments consist of taxable auction rate securities totaling $6.2 million at June 30, 2006. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (SFAS) Statement
No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, these short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale and recorded at cost, which approximates fair market value. These securities have
stated maturities beyond three months but are priced and traded as short-term instruments due to the liquidity provided through the interest rate reset mechanism of 7 to 28 days.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable represents amounts due from customers and are recorded at the time that the
Companys services are provided. Accounts receivable balances are presented net of discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers and net of estimates for uncompensated care based on historical collection trends, credit
risk assessments applicable to certain types of payers and other relevant information. A summary of activity in the Companys uncompensated care during fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 is as follows (in thousands):

Inventories

Inventories, consisting primarily of medical and fleet supplies, are recorded at the lower of cost or market with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis. See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is carried at cost
less accumulated depreciation and is depreciated over the estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Equipment and vehicles are depreciated over three to ten years and buildings are depreciated over fifteen to thirty years. Leasehold
improvements are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the contractual lease terms or the estimated useful lives. Maintenance and repairs which do not improve or significantly extend the life of assets are
expensed as incurred.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents
the excess of the acquisition cost of an acquired company over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances make it likely that impairment may
have occurred. In determining whether impairment has occurred, the Company uses discounted future cash flows. The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test as of the end of its fiscal year. As a result of these tests, no impairment
write-downs have been recorded.

Impairment of Other Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable, by comparing the carrying amount of such assets
to the undiscounted future cash flows associated with them. In cases where the undiscounted future cash flows are less than the related carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair
value of the assets. The fair value is determined based on the present value of future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are also
recognized for net operating loss, capital loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the related temporary differences
are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for those deferred tax
assets for which realization of the related benefits is unlikely.

Stock Compensation

On July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment(SFAS 123R) using the modified
prospective method. Accordingly, results for prior periods have not been restated. The Company recognized approximately $28,000 of stock based compensation expense in the statement of operations for fiscal 2006 applicable to unvested stock options
as of July 1, 2005. At June 30, 2006, there was unrecognized stock based compensation expense totaling approximately $6,000 related to unvested awards which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of
10 months. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and amortized to expense over the vesting period of the award.

Prior to July 1, 2005, the Company accounted for stock based compensation under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related interpretations. Under APB 25, stock-based compensation expense was not reflected in the consolidated statement of operations
for periods prior to July 1, 2005 as all options granted under the Companys plans had exercise prices equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the pro forma effect on
net income and income per share for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS
123) (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The total estimated fair value of options granted during fiscal 2005 and 2004 was $79,000 and $13,000,
respectively. These amounts would have been amortized on a straight-line basis over the associated vesting period. There were no options granted during fiscal 2006. Additionally, the estimated fair value of ESPP share discounts totaled $96,000 for
the year ended June 30, 2004. As discussed in Note 14, the ESPP expired on June 30, 2004.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes  an
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a
tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FIN 48 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

(2) Revenue
 Accounting Change

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, the Company changed its accounting policy relating to the classification of
estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients, defined as uncompensated care. This change in accounting policy was applied retrospectively in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board
(SFAS) Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. The Company now presents revenue net of an estimate for uncompensated care within the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Previously, the
Company recorded revenue at full established rates and recorded a provision for estimated amounts not expected to be realized as an operating expense, as is generally accepted practice under the AICPA Guide, Accounting for Health Care
Organizations (Guide). The Company believes that the new method of accounting is preferable given recent industry practice and the direction of deliberations relating to proposed revisions to the Guide related to revenue recognition for self-pay
patients, and its consistency with the criteria for revenue recognition pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104. The retrospective application of this accounting change decreased net revenue and other operating expenses by $97.6 million, $80.7
million and $78.5 million for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The change in accounting policy, retrospectively applied to the financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004 did not change
the previously reported income from continuing operations or net income. There was no material effect on cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a result of the change in accounting policy.

(3) Inventory Restatement  Correction

In connection with the
preparation of the financial statements for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, management determined that inventory had been historically overstated by the improper inclusion of certain durable medical supply items that should have been expensed as
incurred. All previously issued financial statements contained in the Original Filing have been restated for the impact of expensing these items and resulted in increases/(decreases) in net earnings of ($27,000), $994,000 and $97,000 for the years
ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The cumulative effect of this error on net earnings for all periods preceding fiscal 2004 was an increase in the accumulated deficit as of July 1, 2003 of $3.9 million. There was no
material effect on cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a result of the adjustment to inventory.

The effects of the adjustment
for inventory on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Operations for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively are as follows:

(4) Liquidity

In March 2005, the Company completed a debt refinancing transaction which is further described in Note 11. The Companys ability to service its long-term debt, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and business development
activities will depend on its ability to generate cash from operating activities which is subject to, among other things, future operating performance as well as general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions,
some of which may be beyond its control.

If the Company fails to generate sufficient cash flow from operating activities, it may need to borrow additional
funds or issue additional debt or equity securities to achieve its longer-term business objectives. There can be no assurance that the Company can borrow such funds or issue such debt or equity securities or, if it can, that it can do so at rates or
prices acceptable to the Company. Management believes that cash flow from operating activities coupled with existing cash balances and amounts available under the Companys $20.0 million Revolving Credit Facility and $45.0 million Letter of
Credit Facility will be adequate to fund the Companys operating and capital needs as well as enable it to maintain compliance with its various debt agreements through June 30, 2007. To the extent that actual results or events differ from
the Companys financial projections or business plans, its liquidity may be adversely impacted. See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the Companys event of default and related waiver under the 2005
Credit Facility.

Accrued payroll and taxes decreased $6.6 million from June 30, 2005 due to the timing of payroll funding.
Other accrued liabilities increased by $2.5 million primarily due to a reserve related to an ongoing government investigation into certain of our former operations in the State of Texas which is discussed in Note 16.

(10) General Liability and Workers Compensation Programs

Many of the Companys operational contracts, as well as laws in certain of the areas where the Company operates, require that specified amounts of insurance coverage
be maintained. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to accident, injury and professional liability claims as a result of the nature of its business and the day-to-day operation of its vehicle fleet. In order to
minimize the risk of exposure, and to comply with such legal and contractual requirements, the Company carries a broad range of insurance policies, including comprehensive general liability, automobile, property damage, professional, workers
compensation and other lines of coverage. The Company typically renews each of these policies annually and purchases limits of

coverage at levels management believes are appropriate, taking into account historical and projected claim trends, reasonable protection of Company assets
and operations and the economic conditions in the insurance market. Depending upon the specific line of coverage, the total limits of insurance maintained may be achieved through a combination of primary policies, excess policies and self-insurance.

The Company retains certain levels of exposure with respect to its general liability and workers compensation programs and purchases coverage from
third party insurers for exposures in excess of those levels. In addition to expensing premiums and other costs relating to excess coverage, the Company establishes reserves for claims, both reported and incurred but not reported, on a gross basis
using currently available information as well as its historical claims experience. The Company also recognizes a receivable from its insurers for amounts expected to be recovered in excess of its retention. The Company regularly evaluates the
financial capacity of its insurers to assess the recoverability of the related receivables.

The Company engages third-party administrators
(TPAs) to manage claims resulting from its general liability and workers compensation programs. The TPAs establish initial loss reserve estimates at the time a claim is reported and then monitor the development of the claim over
time to confirm that such estimates continue to be appropriate. Management periodically reviews the claim reserves established by the TPAs and engages independent actuaries to assist with the evaluation of the adequacy of its reserves on a
semi-annual basis. The Company adjusts its claim reserves with an associated charge or credit to expense as new information on the underlying claims is obtained.

In prior years, certain insurers required the Company to deposit cash into designated loss funds in order to fund claim payments within the Companys retention limits. Total cash deposits relating to the Companys insurance
programs totaled $3.8 million and $11.1 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. As of June 30, 2005, we replaced collateral previously held by the insurers with letters of credit in support of our fiscal 2006 policies which began
on May 1, 2005. Letters of credit in support of the Companys insurance programs issued under the Credit Facility discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements totaled $39.5 million and $32.8 million at June 30, 2006
and 2005, respectively.

Over the past two years the Company has worked diligently to close its outstanding general liability claims. The
Company has also worked to minimize future losses through proactive risk management and workplace safety initiatives, including the implementation of Drivecam technology in the ambulance fleet. The progress towards these initiatives has given rise
to favorable historical claims experience, which, in part, resulted in a reduction in the Companys reserves by $2.8 million and $3.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

For annual policy years prior to May 1, 2002 and subsequent to May 1, 2005, the Companys workers
compensation policies include a deductible obligation with no annual aggregate limit. Loss provisions relating to reported claims as well as for claims incurred but not reported applicable to these policy years are based on currently available
information as well as the Companys historical claims experience. Amounts receivable from insurers for losses in excess of the Companys deductible obligation are also recorded.

In each of the policy years ended April 30, 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Company purchased workers compensation coverage under retrospectively rated policies whereby
the related premiums are subject to adjustment at certain intervals based on subsequent review of actual losses incurred as well as payroll amounts. The Company determined that the policies for the policy years ended April 30, 2003 and 2004
effectively transferred the risk of loss to the insurer. As a result, the cost applicable to those policy years consisted entirely of the related premium expense. During fiscal 2004, a premium refund applicable to policy year ended April 30,
2003 was received in the amount of $1.2 million and was recognized as a reduction of workers compensation expense. Additionally, during fiscal 2005, a payroll audit applicable to the policy year ended April 30, 2004 was completed and resulted
in additional premiums and related workers compensation expense of $0.2 million. Finally, during fiscal 2006 and 2005, we reduced our estimated premium refunds by $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, relating to these policy years based upon
an updated loss assessment prepared by our independent actuaries.

With respect to its workers compensation policy for the policy year ended April 30,
2005, the Company determined that the risk of loss was not effectively transferred to the insurer. As a result, the Company recorded a deposit for amounts paid to the insurer during the policy period in excess of the identified premiums along with a
corresponding insurance claim reserve. These amounts are periodically revalued as claims are paid under the policy. During May 2006, the Company received a partial refund of its deposit in the amount of $4.4 million as a result of its improved
claims experience. Such improved claims experience also resulted in a $1.3 million reduction in the Companys related claim reserves during fiscal 2006. As of June 30, 2006 and 2005, the Companys deposit balances for the
retrospective policy year ended April 30, 2005 were $2.5 million and $7.6 million, respectively. At June 30, 2006 and 2005, the claim reserves for this policy were $3.0 million and $5.5 million, respectively.

Reliance

During fiscal years 1992 through 2001, the Company
purchased certain portions of its workers compensation coverage from Reliance Insurance Company (Reliance). At the time the Company purchased such coverage, Reliance was an A rated insurance company. In connection with
this coverage, the Company provided Reliance with various amounts and forms of collateral to secure its performance under the respective policies as was customary at the time.

##### Table of Contents

On October 3, 2003, the Pennsylvania Insurance Department (the Department) placed Reliance into
liquidation. Reliances liquidation could put the Companys workers compensation insurance coverage at risk for the related policy years; however, based upon information currently available, the Company believes that either Reliance
or the applicable state guaranty funds will continue to pay claims. To the extent that such losses are not covered by either Reliance or the applicable state guaranty funds, the Company may be required to fund the related workers compensation
claims for the applicable policy years.

As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $1.3 million of cash on deposit with Reliance, which is included in
insurance deposits on the consolidated balance sheet. In March 2006, the Company received $1.2 million of cash collateral from Reliance which represented the remaining balance of workers compensation cash insurance deposits. The Company also
had deposits in the form of letters of credit with Reliance totaling $3.7 million as of June 30, 2006.

Legion

During fiscal 2002, the Company purchased certain portions of its workers compensation coverage from Legion Insurance Company (Legion). Legion required
assurances that the Company would fund its related retention obligations, which were estimated by Legion to approximate $6.2 million. The Company provided this assurance by purchasing a deductible reimbursement policy from Mutual Indemnity
(Bermuda), Ltd., a Legion affiliate. That policy required the Company to deposit $6.2 million with Mutual Indemnity and required Mutual Indemnity to utilize such funds to satisfy the Companys retention obligations under the Legion policy.

On July 25th, 2003, the Department placed Legion into liquidation. In January 2003, the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania (the Court) ordered the Legion
liquidator and Mutual Indemnity to establish segregated trust accounts to be funded by cash deposits held by Mutual Indemnity for the benefit of individual insureds such as the Company. It is the Companys understanding that the Legion
liquidator and Mutual Indemnity continue to negotiate the legal framework for the form and administration of these trust accounts and that no final agreement has yet been reached. Under Act 46 the Legion liquidator is required to first utilize the
cash deposits available with Mutual Indemnity before attempting to collect any amounts from the Company. Based on the information currently available, the Company believes that the amounts on deposit with Mutual Indemnity are fully recoverable and
will either be returned to the Company or used to pay claims on its behalf. In the event that the Company or the Legion liquidator are unable to access the funds on deposit with Mutual Indemnity, the Company may be required to fund the related
workers compensation claims for the applicable policy years, to the extent that such losses are not covered by the applicable state guaranty funds. In fiscal 2003 and 2004, the Legion liquidator ordered the Companys TPA to forward all
workers compensation claims related to fiscal year 2002 to the state guarantee funds that will be administering these claims. The Company has reserves in the amount of $1.5 million and $2.3 million as of June 30, 2006 and 2005,
respectively, relating to these claims as well as deposits with Mutual Indemnity totaling $1.3 million and $2.2 million, respectively. Since these claims are not in the Companys control, it may not be able to obtain current information as to
the settlement of these claims and to the use of their deposits to satisfy these claims.



|(11) | Long-Term Debt
|---- | --------------

On March 4, 2005, the Company completed a
refinancing transaction whereby its newly formed wholly owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro Operating Company, LLC (Rural/Metro LLC), entered into new senior secured credit facilities (collectively, the 2005 Credit Facility) in an
aggregate amount of up to $190.0 million. In addition, Rural/Metro LLC and its newly formed wholly owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro (Delaware) Inc. (Rural/Metro Inc.) issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount 9.875% senior
subordinated notes due 2015 (the Senior Subordinated Notes) and Rural/Metro Corporation issued $93.5 million aggregate principal amount at maturity (gross proceeds of $50.2 million) of 12.75% senior discount notes due 2016 (the
Senior Discount Notes).

Due to the restatement of the financial statements, the Company did not timely file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, as disclosed on Form 12b-25 filed on February 12, 2007. As a result, the Company received a notice of default on February 22, 2007 from the trustee of its 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due
2015, and its 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due 2016. Any default under the Indentures that govern the notes also constitutes an event of default under the Companys 2005 Credit Facility and could lead to an acceleration of the
unpaid principal and accrued interest under the 2005 Credit Facility, unless a waiver is obtained. On March 13, 2007, the Company obtained a waiver under the 2005 Credit Facility for any defaults relating to the restatement and the untimely
filing of this Form 10-Q. In addition, any default under the notes relating to the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, will be cured within the 60-day cure period (expires April 23,
2007) upon the filing of such report with the SEC, which the Company anticipates will occur on the same day that this Amendment is filed.

During fiscal 2005, net proceeds from our March 2005 refinancing transaction were used to repay approximately $302.6
million of existing indebtedness. In connection therewith, we recorded $8.2 million of debt extinguishment costs in fiscal 2005. These costs included non-cash charges of $5.6 million related to the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with
the retired debt and $0.1 million related to unamortized discounts as well as cash redemption premiums of $2.5 million.

At June 30, 2006, the Company had outstanding letters of credit which mature during the next twelve months
totaling $39.9 million, of which $39.5 million support general liability and workers compensation insurance programs.

2005 Credit Facility

In March 2005, Rural/Metro LLC entered into the 2005 Credit Facility, which provides for a $135.0 million Term Loan B facility maturing in 2011, a
$35.0 million Letter of Credit Facility maturing in 2011 and a $20.0 million Revolving Credit Facility maturing in 2010, each of which is described below.

Term Loan B

The Term Loan B bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.25 percent per annum (see Amendment No. 3 discussed below) or,
at Rural/Metro LLCs option, the Alternate Base Rate (ABR), as defined in the 2005 Credit Facility, plus 1.50 percent per annum. In the case of the LIBOR option, whereby the contract period is equal to one, two, three or six months from the
date of initial borrowing at Rural/Metro LLCs option, interest on the Term Loan B is payable on the last day of each contract period, subject to a maximum payment term of three months. Interest is payable at the end of each quarter in the case
of the ABR option. As of June 30, 2006, $97.0 million of the outstanding balance was under a LIBOR option six-month contract accruing interest at 7.50 percent per annum, while the remaining $10.0 million was under a LIBOR option three-month
contract accruing interest at 7.40 percent per annum.

The Term Loan B requires an annual principal payment of 1.0 percent of the original loan amount,
payable quarterly beginning on September 30, 2005. Additionally, annual principal payments equal to 75 percent of the fiscal year-end excess cash flow, as defined in the 2005 Credit Facility, are due on September 30th of each year with the
first remeasurement period at June 30, 2006.

During fiscal 2006, we made unscheduled principal payments on our Term Loan B totaling $21.0 million.
These payments satisfy the excess cash flow sweep requirement under the Term Loan B facility as of September 2006.

During fiscal 2005, we made a $7.0
million unscheduled principal payment on our Term Loan B which was applied to the 1 percent annual principal payment requirement; therefore, no principal payments are required until maturity in March 2011.

##### Table of Contents

Rural/Metro LLC capitalized $4.6 million of expenses associated with the Term Loan B and is amortizing these costs to
interest expense over the term of the agreement. Approximately $0.2 million and $0.8 million of deferred financing costs were written-off in relation to the $7.0 million and $21.0 million unscheduled principal payments in fiscal 2005 and fiscal
2006, respectively. Unamortized deferred financing costs related to Term Loan B were $2.9 million and $4.1 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Revolving Credit Facility includes a letter of credit sub-line whereby $10.0 million of the $20.0 million
total facility can be utilized to issue letters of credit. The Revolving Credit Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.25 percent per annum or, at Rural/Metro LLCs option, the ABR plus 2.25 percent per annum on all amounts drawn against the
line. In the case of the LIBOR option, whereby the contract period is equal to one, two, three or six months from the date of initial borrowing at Rural/Metro LLCs option, interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is payable on the last day of
each contract period, subject to a maximum payment term of three months. Interest is payable at the end of each quarter in the case of the ABR option. A commitment fee of 0.50 percent is payable on the total undrawn revolving commitment, plus a
fronting fee of 0.25 percent on any letter of credit issued under the sub-line, payable at the end of each quarter. Principal payments prior to maturity are not required. Expenses associated with the Revolving Credit Facility of $0.7 million were
capitalized and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the agreement. Unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility were $0.5 million and $0.6 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
There were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2006.

Letter of Credit Facility

The Letter of Credit Facility is available primarily to support and/or replace existing and future insurance deductible arrangements of the Company, Rural/Metro LLC and
the Guarantors. The Letter of Credit Facility bears a participation fee of 2.25 percent (see Amendment No. 3 discussed below) plus an administrative fee of 0.15 percent for a total of 2.40 percent per annum on the total facility
payable quarterly. In addition, Rural/Metro LLC will pay a fronting fee of 0.125 percent per annum on issued letters of credit payable quarterly. Rural/Metro LLC capitalized expenses associated with the Letter of Credit Facility of $1.2 million and
is amortizing these costs to interest expense over the term of the agreement.

Unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Letter of Credit
Facility were $0.9 million and $1.1 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. At June 30, 2006, $38.7 million of the available Letter of Credit Facility balance was utilized primarily in support of the Companys insurance
programs.

Other Terms

The 2005 Credit Facility
requires Rural/Metro LLC and its subsidiaries to meet certain financial tests, including a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum total leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The 2005 Credit Facility also contains covenants
which among other things limit the incurrence of additional indebtedness, dividends, transactions with affiliates, asset sales, acquisitions, mergers, prepayments of other indebtedness, liens and encumbrances, capital expenditures, business
activities limitations on the Company, as a holding company, and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. Rural/Metro LLC and its subsidiaries were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2006.

Indebtedness under the 2005 Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and each of Rural/Metro LLCs current and future direct and indirect subsidiaries (the
Guarantors) and is secured by a lien on substantially all of Rural/Metro LLCs and the Guarantors current and future property, including all equity interests in Rural/Metro LLC and its current subsidiaries.

Credit Facility Amendments

Effective June 30, 2005, the Company
executed an amendment to the 2005 Credit Facility (Amendment No. 1) whereby the definition of the term Fixed Charges was modified to exclude unscheduled principal payments. Additionally, the limitation on capital
expenditures for fiscal year 2005 was increased from $12.25 million to $13.25 million.

On December 27, 2005, the Company amended certain terms,
conditions and covenants contained in its 2005 Credit Facility (Amendment No. 2). Specifically, Amendment No. 2 permits the Company to use net proceeds from the issuance of qualified equity to repurchase its 12.75% Senior
Discount Notes due March 2016 (the Senior Discount Notes) issued by Rural/Metro Corporation and/or its 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 2015 (the Senior Subordinated Notes) issued by Rural/Metro LLC and its
subsidiary, Rural/Metro (Delaware) Inc. (collectively referred to as the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers), and further allows the Company to use up to $10.0 million of cash on hand to purchase any remaining Senior Discount Notes in
their entirety. Following any redemption of the Senior Discount Notes, the Companys total leverage ratio may not exceed 4.0 to 1.0.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, Amendment No. 2 modified the existing covenant regarding permitted acquisitions by increasing the
aggregate limit for acquisitions to $40.0 million and the individual limit for permitted acquisitions to $10.0 million, subject to an exception to allow the Company flexibility to exercise an existing option to acquire a medical transportation
services entity in Las Vegas, Nevada within the next two years. The purchase option first becomes exercisable in 2006 for a one-year period at a purchase price that is the greater of $12.0 million or 6.9 times the Las Vegas, Nevada entitys
EBITDA for the 12-month period preceding the purchase date. Amendment No. 2 also modified certain other 2005 Credit Facility covenants including an increase in the permitted level of annual capital expenditures.

On May 5, 2006, the Company amended certain terms and conditions contained in its 2005 Credit Facility (Amendment No. 3). Specifically, Amendment
No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on the Companys Term Loan B from LIBOR plus 2.50 percent to LIBOR plus 2.25 percent. Additionally, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on the Companys Letter of Credit
Facility from 2.50 percent to 2.25 percent. As permitted under the original Credit Facility Agreement, the Company also expanded its Letter of Credit Facility from $35.0 million to $45.0 million.

9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes

In March 2005, the Companys
two newly formed wholly owned subsidiaries, Rural/Metro LLC and Rural/Metro Inc. (collectively referred to as the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers), completed the private placement of the Senior Subordinated Notes. Interest on the
Senior Subordinated Notes is payable semi-annually on September 15 and March 15. The Senior Subordinated Notes have been subsequently registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Senior Subordinated Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations of the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers. They rank junior in right of payment to all of the
Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers existing and future senior indebtedness, including the 2005 Credit Facility, rank pari passu in right of payment with any of the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers future senior subordinated debt
and rank senior in right of payment to any of the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers future subordinated debt. Each of the Guarantors, other than Rural/Metro Inc., have guaranteed the Senior Subordinated Notes. These guarantees are unsecured
and will be subordinated to all existing and future senior obligations of the Guarantors, including their guarantees of the 2005 Credit Facility.

At any
time prior to March 15, 2008, the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers may redeem up to 35 percent of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes with the net proceeds from certain equity offerings, subject to application of
the first 50 percent of any proceeds to the 2005 Credit Facility, at a redemption price of 109.875 percent of the principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes to be redeemed. At any time prior to March 15, 2010, the Senior Subordinated
Notes Issuers may redeem all or a portion of the Senior Subordinated Notes at a price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes, plus a make-whole premium. After March 15, 2010, the Senior Subordinated Notes
Issuers may redeem all or part of the Senior Subordinated Notes at various redemption prices given the date of redemption as set forth in the indenture governing the Senior Subordinated Notes. If the Company experiences a change of control, the
Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers may be required to offer to purchase the Senior Subordinated Notes at a purchase price equal to 101 percent of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Costs related to this issuance totaling $5.3 million were capitalized and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Senior Subordinated Notes.
Unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Senior Subordinated Notes were $4.6 million and $4.8 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

12.75% Senior Discount Notes

In March 2005, Rural/Metro Corporation completed a private placement of the Senior Discount Notes and received
gross proceeds of $50.2 million. While interest will accrue prior to March 15, 2010, cash interest payments will not be due until September 15, 2010. The Senior Discount Notes had an initial accreted value of $536.99 per $1,000 principal
amount at maturity. The accreted value will increase from the date of issuance until March 15, 2010 at a rate of 12.75 percent per annum compounded semiannually such that the accreted value will equal the principal amount at maturity of each
Senior Discount Note on that date. The accreted value of the Senior Discount Notes was $59.2 million at June 30, 2006 and $52.3 million at June 30, 2005. The Senior Discount Notes have been subsequently registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended.

The Senior Discount Notes are unsecured senior obligations of Rural/Metro Corporation and will rank equally in right of payment with
all its existing and future unsecured senior obligations and senior to its subordinated indebtedness. The Senior Discount Notes will be subordinated to the Companys existing and future secured indebtedness, including its guarantee of the 2005
Credit Facility, to the extent of the assets securing that indebtedness. The Senior Discount Notes are not guaranteed by any of Rural/Metro Corporations subsidiaries and are subordinated to all obligations of Rural/Metro Corporations
subsidiaries, including the Senior Subordinated Notes, the 2005 Credit Facility and the guarantees of the Guarantors.

At any time prior to March 15, 2008, Rural/Metro Corporation may redeem up to 35 percent of the Senior Discount
Notes with the proceeds from certain equity offerings, subject to application of the first 50 percent of any proceeds to the 2005 Credit Facility, at a redemption price of 112.75 percent of the accreted value of the Senior Discount Notes to be
redeemed. Prior to March 15, 2010, Rural/Metro Corporation may redeem all or a portion of the Senior Discount Notes at a price equal to 100 percent of the accreted value of the Senior Discount Notes, plus a make-whole premium. After
March 15, 2010, Rural/Metro Corporation may redeem all or part of the Senior Discount Notes at various redemption prices given the date of redemption as set forth in the indenture governing the Senior Discount Notes. If Rural/Metro Corporation
experiences a change of control, it may be required to offer to purchase the Senior Discount Notes at a purchase price equal to 101 percent of their accreted value, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The Company capitalized costs totaling $2.2 million related to this issuance and is amortizing these costs to interest expense over the term of the Senior Discount
Notes. Unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Senior Discount Notes were $1.9 million and $2.0 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Other Terms

The Senior Subordinated Notes and the Senior Discount Notes contain certain covenants that, among other things, limit the
Companys and its subsidiaries ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends on our capital stock or repurchase our capital stock, make certain investments, enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, use assets as
security in other transactions, sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies, purchase fixed assets and prepay certain other indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2006.

Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

The
Companys Senior Subordinated Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations of the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by Rural/Metro Corporation (which is referred
to singularly as Parent within the following condensed consolidating financial information) and substantially all of the current and future subsidiaries of Rural/Metro LLC, excluding Rural/Metro Inc. (the Senior Subordinated Note
Guarantors).

The Company does not believe that the separate financial statements and related footnote disclosures concerning the Senior Subordinated
Notes Guarantors would provide any additional information that would be material to investors making an investment decision. Condensed consolidating financial information for the Parent, the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers, the Senior Secured Note
Guarantors and the Companys remaining subsidiary (the Non-Guarantor) is presented in the following tables. The Non-Guarantor consists of the Companys joint venture with the City of San Diego, San Diego Medical Services
Enterprise, LLC, which is consolidated in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. Certain information presented has been restated from
that originally reported to reflect the effect of the change in accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients and the restated results relating from the correction of certain
accounting practice errors relating to inventory discussed in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, respectively.

The formation of the
Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers became effective as of the consummation of the financing transactions that were completed on March 4, 2005. Therefore, the condensed consolidating statement of operations and the condensed consolidating
statement of cash flows for fiscal 2005 consist solely of Rural/ Metro Corporation, the Senior Subordinated Notes Guarantors, the Non-Guarantor and related eliminations.

During 2006, we updated the effective income tax rates applicable to the deferred tax assets relating to our state
net operating loss carryforwards. This process resulted in an increase in our deferred tax assets of $2.8 million and a corresponding increase in our related valuation allowance, having no net effect on our income tax provision for the year.

As required by generally accepted accounting principles, management assesses the recoverability of the
Companys deferred tax assets on a regular basis and records a valuation allowance for any such assets where recoverability is determined to be unlikely. Prior to June 30, 2005, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against its
deferred tax assets, which consist primarily of its federal and state net operating loss carryforwards and its federal capital loss carryforwards, as management had concluded, based upon the available evidence, that realization was unlikely.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company released $87.7 million of its deferred tax valuation allowances, primarily those relating to its federal
and state net operating loss carryforwards, as a result of managements determination that realization of the related deferred tax benefits was likely. The Company reflected the related valuation allowance release as a deferred tax benefit in
continuing operations of $85.2 million, a credit to additional paid in capital of $2.1 million, a reduction in goodwill of $1.5 million and a deferred tax charge in discontinued operations of $1.1 million. The portion of the valuation allowance
release recorded as a reduction of goodwill relates to acquired net operating losses for which a related benefit had not previously been recognized.

The
valuation allowance was established beginning in fiscal 2000 as a result of substantial financial and taxable losses arising from the Companys restructuring, bad debt write-offs, and impairments as a result of the adoption of SFAS 142,
Management regularly assessed the recoverability of the deferred tax assets by reviewing factors of past and future profitability. During the fiscal 2005 review of the deferred tax assets, management concluded that there were strong factors
indicating that it was more likely than not that the related deferred tax assets would be realized. These factors included cumulative pretax income in prior years, the refinancing of our long-term debt in 2005, which furthered managements
belief that the Company would realize the value of such released assets, and our financial projections of continuing income in future years. As a result, the Company released a significant portion of the valuation allowance.

The Company still maintains a valuation allowance of $36.4 million against deferred tax assets that management does not believe will be realized. The valuation allowance
includes $14 million related to capital loss carryforwards, $10.8 million related to federal net operating loss carryforwards, and $11.6 million related to state net operating loss carryforwards.

Beginning in fiscal 2006, the Company is recognizing deferred income tax expense as the Company utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to reduce its federal and
state taxes currently payable and the associated deferred tax benefits are realized. As a result, minimal current cash payments are required.

##### Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2006, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of
approximately $183 million which expire in 2014-2024 and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $281 million, which expire in 2007-2026. The Company had capital loss carryforwards of $36 million, which expire in 2008. The
Company also had minimum tax credit carryforwards of $1.1 million for federal income tax purposes. These credits can be carried forward indefinitely, but may only be used to the extent that regular tax exceeds the alternative minimum tax in any
given year. If the Company experiences an ownership change as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, its ability to utilize its carryforwards may be limited.

On February 3, 2006, the Company received notification from the Internal Revenue Service of its intention to examine the Companys federal income tax return for the year ended June 30, 2004. Although the ultimate outcome is
unknown, management believes that it has adequately provided for any potential adjustment that may arise from the current examination and that the final outcome will not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows.

(13) Redeemable Nonconvertible Participating Preferred Stock

In connection with amendments to its previous credit agreement, the Company issued 211,549 Series B redeemable nonconvertible participating preferred shares (Series
B Shares) on September 30, 2002 and 283,979 Series C redeemable nonconvertible participating preferred shares (Series C Shares) on September 30, 2003 to certain of its lenders.

The Company recorded the Series B and Series C Shares at their estimated fair values at the date of issuance ($4.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively) with an
offsetting increase in debt issuance costs. At the Companys option, the Series B and Series C Shares could be settled by either the issuance of 2,115,490 and 2,839,790 common shares, respectively, or a cash payment equivalent to the prescribed
redemption values. The original value of the Series B and Series C Shares was being accreted to their respective redemption values with an offsetting charge to additional paid-in capital. Series B and Series C Share accretion totaled $4.8 million
and $1.5 million, respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2004.

As a sufficient number of common shares were not available to permit settlement of
the Series B and Series C Shares, the Company sought and obtained stockholder approval at its Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 10, 2004 to amend its certificate of incorporation to authorize additional common shares. The amendment
increased the Companys authorized common shares from 23,000,000 to 40,000,000.

On June 30, 2004, the Company settled the Series B and Series C
Shares by the issuance of 4,955,278 common shares. In June 2005, the Company registered all of the outstanding common stock issued upon settlement of the Series B and Series C shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As of June 30, 2006 and 2005, there were 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, authorized, none of which were issued and outstanding.

(14) Shareholder Rights Plan

On August 24, 2005,
the Company entered into a shareholder rights plan to replace the previous plan that expired on August 23, 2005. The shareholder rights plan provides for one right to be attached to each share of common stock of the Company. Each right entitles
the registered holder to purchase a unit consisting of one one-thousandth of a share (a Unit) of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a purchase price of $45 per Unit, subject to adjustment. The
rights will become exercisable following the tenth day (or such later date as may be determined by the Board of Directors) after a person or group (a) acquires beneficial ownership of 15 percent or more of the Companys common stock, or
(b) announces a tender or exchange offer, the consummation of which would result in ownership by a person or group of 15 percent or more of the Companys common stock.

Upon exercise and subject to adjustment, each right will entitle the holder (other than the party seeking to acquire control of the Company) to acquire a number of shares of common stock of the Company or, in certain
circumstances, such acquiring person having a value equal to two times the then applicable purchase price. The rights may be terminated by the Board of Directors at any time prior to the date they become exercisable at a price of $0.01 per right;
thereafter, they may be redeemed for a specified period of time at $0.01 per right. The shareholder rights plan expires on August 24, 2015.

Employee Benefit Plans

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company established the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) through which eligible employees could purchase shares of the Companys common stock at semi-annual intervals through periodic payroll deductions. The ESPP is
a qualified employee benefit plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company had reserved 2,150,000 shares of stock for issuance under the ESPP. The purchase price per share was the lower of 85 percent of the closing price of
the Companys common stock on the first day or the last day of the offering period or on the nearest prior day on which trading occurred. Employees purchased 341,430 shares of the Companys common stock under the ESPP during fiscal 2004 at
an average per share price of $0.98. The ESPP expired on June 30, 2004. Shares related to the semi-annual period ended June 30, 2004 were issued in July 2004.

1992 Stock Option Plan

The Companys 1992 Stock Option Plan (the 1992 Plan) was adopted in November
1992 and expired November 5, 2002. The 1992 Plan provided for the granting of up to 6.0 million options to acquire common stock of the Company as well as the granting of common stock, stock appreciation rights or other cash awards. At
June 30, 2006, 2.6 million options had been exercised and 1.7 million options remain outstanding under the 1992 Plan. Options under the 1992 Plan were granted as incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options.

##### Table of Contents

Options under the 1992 Plan were granted only to persons who at the time of grant were either key personnel of the
Company or consultants and independent contractors who provided valuable services to the Company. Incentive stock options could only be granted to key personnel of the Company. Options granted under the 1992 Plan vested over periods not exceeding
five years.

2000 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan

The
Companys 2000 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the 2000 Plan) was adopted in August 2000 and provides for the granting of options to acquire common stock of the Company. At the time of adoption, the maximum number of shares of
common stock issuable under the 2000 Plan was 2.0 million. As of June 30, 2006, 1.3 million options had been exercised, 0.2 million options remain outstanding and 0.5 million options remain available for grant under the 2000
Plan.

Options under the 2000 Plan may be granted only to persons who at the time of grant are either regular employees, excluding Directors and Officers,
or persons who provide consulting or other services as independent contractors to the Company. Options granted to date vest over periods not exceeding three years. There were no options granted during fiscal 2006.

To date, the Company has not granted options with market or performance conditions. All options granted under the 1992 Plan and the 2000 Plan through June 30, 2006
have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Companys stock on the date of grant. Options granted under both plans have a 10 year contractual term. Such term was established by the Board of Directors at the time of grant.
Shares issued upon option exercise consist of authorized but unissued shares of the Companys common stock.

The following tables summarize stock
option activity in the 1992 Plan and the 2000 Plan:

401(k) Plan

The Company has a defined contribution plan (the 401(k) Plan) covering eligible employees who are at least 18 years old. The 401(k) Plan is designed to provide tax-deferred income to the Companys employees in accordance
with the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.

##### Table of Contents

The 401(k) Plan provides that each participant may contribute up to 50 percent of his or her respective salary, not to
exceed the annual statutory limit, except for highly compensated employees, whose contributions are limited to 4 percent. The Company, at its discretion, may elect to make matching contributions in the form of cash or the Companys common stock
to each participants account as determined by the Board of Directors. Under the terms of the 401(k) Plan, the Company may also make discretionary profit sharing contributions. Profit sharing contributions are allocated among participants based
on their annual compensation. Each participant has the right to direct the investment of his or her funds.

Matching contributions of $1.6 million were
made to the 401(k) Plan during each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004. The Company did not elect to make a discretionary profit sharing contribution in fiscal years 2006, 2005 or 2004. The Companys 401(k) matching
contribution liability was $1.9 million and $2.3 million at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The 401 (k) Plan has a December 31 year-end and therefore the matching contribution liability balances at June 30, 2006 and 2005 include
approximately 18 months of such contributions.

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

Effective July 1, 2004, the Company established a defined benefit pension plan covering eligible employees of one of its subsidiaries, primarily those covered by collective bargaining arrangements. Eligibility is
achieved upon the completion of one year of service. Participants become fully vested in their accrued benefit after the completion of five years of service. The amount of benefit is determined using a two-part formula, one of which is based upon
compensation and the other which is based upon a flat dollar amount.

The Companys general funding policy is to make annual contributions to the plan
as required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Contributions by the Company during fiscal 2006 and 2005 totaled $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively. The plans obligations are valued on an annual basis
using a June 30 measurement date.

The following tables provide reconciliations of the changes in the plans benefit obligation, fair value of assets
and prepaid benefit cost for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):

Net periodic pension benefit cost for fiscal 2006 totaled $852,000 and was comprised of service cost of $901,000,
interest cost of $44,000 and amortization of unrecognized actuarial losses of $3,000, offset by the expected return on plan assets of $95,000. Net periodic pension benefit cost for fiscal 2005 totaled $700,000 and was comprised of service cost of
$726,000, offset by the expected return on plan assets of $26,000.

The assumptions used to determine the Companys benefit obligation as of
June 30, 2006 and 2005 were:



|                                        |  |      |   |  |      |

|Discount rate                           |  | 6.48 | % |  | 5.0  | %
|Rate of increase in compensation levels |  | 4.0  | % |  | 2.5  | %

The assumptions used to determine the Companys net periodic benefit cost for fiscal 2006 and 2005 were:



|                                            |  |      |   |  |      |

|Discount rate                               |  | 5.0  | % |  | 6.25 | %
|Rate of increase in compensation levels     |  | 2.5  | % |  | 4.0  | %
|Expected long-term rate of return on assets |  | 7.5  | % |  | 7.5  | %

Assumed discount rates were determined by applying the spot rates underlying the Citigroup Pension Discount Curve
to the plans anticipated cash flows. The discount rate was determined as the level rate compounded annually that produced the same present value as that based upon the spot rates, with an adjustment to reflect a provision for expenses. The
increase in the assumed discount rate as of June 30, 2006 is attributable to increases in market interest rates during fiscal 2006.

For fiscal 2006 and
2005, the Company assumed a long-term rate of return on assets of 7.5 percent. In developing the 7.5 percent expected long-term rate of return assumption, management evaluated input from an independent actuary, including their expectations of asset
class return expectations and long-term inflation assumptions.

The Companys pension plan assets at June 30, 2006 and 2005 by asset category are
shown below.

The Company invests in a diversified portfolio to ensure that adverse or unexpected results from a security class
will not have a detrimental impact on the entire portfolio. The portfolio is diversified by asset type, performance and risk characteristics and number of investments. Asset classes and ranges considered appropriate for investment of the plans
assets are determined by the plans investment committee. The asset classes include domestic and foreign equities, emerging market equities, domestic and foreign investment grade and high-yield bonds and domestic real estate.

(16) Earnings per Share

The Company calculates earnings per share following the guidance outlined in SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share (SFAS 128), as well as related guidance issued by the EITF and the SEC. As a result of the issuance
of its Series B and Series C Shares as discussed in Note 12, the Company began calculating income (loss) per share using the two-class method whereby net income (loss) for the period was allocated between common shares and other
participating securities on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during a given period. This allocation was also impacted by the accretion of the Series B and Series C Shares to their
respective cash redemption values as described in Note 12. As also described in Note 12, the Company settled the Series B and Series C Shares on June 30, 2004 by exchanging such shares for shares of its common stock. As a result, use of the
two-class method was no longer required after that date.

Stock options with exercise prices above the average market prices during the respective periods have been
excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Such options totaled 0.3 million, 1.5 million and 4.2 million for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

(17) Commitments and Contingencies

Surety Bonds

Certain counties, municipalities, and fire districts require the Company to provide a surety bond or other assurance of financial or performance responsibility. The Company may also be required by law to post a surety
bond as a prerequisite to obtaining and maintaining a license to operate. As a result, the Company has surety bonds that are renewable annually. The Company had $8.6 million of surety bonds outstanding as of June 30, 2006.

Operating Leases

The Company leases various facilities and equipment
under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. Rental expense charged to continuing operations under these leases (including leases with terms of less than one year) was $12.1 million, $10.8 million and $10.1 million in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004,
respectively.

|           |  | $ | 64,954
|           |  |   |       

Indemnifications

The Company is a party to a variety of agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business pursuant to which it may be obligated to indemnify other parties for certain liabilities that arise out of or relate to the subject matter of
the agreements. Some of the agreements entered into by the Company require it to indemnify other parties against losses due to property damage including environmental contamination, personal injury, failure to comply with applicable laws, the
Companys negligence or willful misconduct, or breach of representations and warranties and covenants.

Additionally, some of the Companys
customer agreements require the Company to provide certain assurances related to the performance of its services. Such assurances, from time to time, obligate the Company to (i) pay penalties for failure to meet response times or other requirements,
(ii) lease, sell or assign equipment or facilities (either temporarily or permanently) in the event of uncured material defaults or other certain circumstances, or (iii) provide surety bonds or letters of credit issued in favor of the customer to
cover costs resulting, under certain circumstances, from an uncured material default. With respect to such surety bonds, the Company is also required to indemnify the surety company for losses paid as a result of any claims made against such bonds.

The Company and its subsidiaries provide for indemnification of directors, officers and other persons in accordance with limited liability agreements,
certificates of incorporation, by-laws, articles of association or similar organizational documents, as the case may be. The Company maintains directors and officers insurance, which should enable it to recover a portion of any future
amounts paid.

In addition to the above, from time to time the Company provides standard representations and warranties to counterparties in contracts in
connection with sales of its securities and the engagement of financial advisors, and also provides indemnities that protect the counterparties to these contracts in the event they suffer damages as a result of a breach of such representations and
warranties, or in certain other circumstances relating to the sale of securities or their engagement by the Company.

While the Companys future
obligations under certain agreements may contain limitations on liability for indemnification, other agreements do not contain such limitations, and under such agreements it is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments
due to the conditional nature of the Companys obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by the Company under any of these indemnities have not had a material effect on
the Companys business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Additionally, the Company does not believe that any amounts that it may be required to pay under these indemnities in the future will be material to the
Companys business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is a party to, or otherwise involved in, lawsuits, claims, proceedings, investigations and other legal matters that have arisen in the
ordinary course of business. The Company cannot predict with certainty the ultimate outcome of any of these lawsuits, claims, proceedings, investigations and other legal matters which it is a party to, or otherwise involved in, due to, among other
things, the inherent uncertainties of litigation, government investigations and proceedings and legal matters in general. The Company is also subject to requests and subpoenas for information in independent investigations. An unfavorable outcome in
any of the lawsuits pending against the Company or in a government investigation or proceeding could result in substantial potential liabilities and have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows. Further, these proceedings, and the Companys actions in response to these proceedings, could result in substantial potential liabilities, additional defense and other costs, increase the Companys
indemnification obligations, divert managements attention, and/or adversely affect the Companys ability to execute its business and financial strategies. The Companys outstanding litigation includes the following:

##### Table of Contents

The Companys subsidiary, Sioux Falls Ambulance Inc. (Sioux Falls) had been conducting settlement
discussions with the OIG of the HHS regarding alleged improper billing practices in South Dakota. Although Sioux Falls did not admit any liability with respect to the OIGs claims, Sioux Falls, the United States of America and the OIG entered
into a settlement agreement, effective October 25, 2005. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the government agreed to release Sioux Falls from any civil or administrative monetary claims the government may have had against Sioux Falls
relating to the alleged improper practices. In exchange for such release, Sioux Falls paid the United States $0.5 million on October 28, 2005.

The U.S.
government is conducting an investigation into alleged discounts made in violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute in connection with certain of the Companys contracts that were in effect when the Company had operations in the State of
Texas. The Company is currently negotiating a settlement with the government regarding these allegations. Although there can be no assurances that a settlement agreement will be reached, any such settlement agreement may require the Company to make
a substantial payment to the government and enter into a Corporate Integrity Agreement. Management believes that the $2.5 million charge recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2006 is adequate to cover any potential losses relating to this
matter. If a settlement is not reached, the government has indicated that it will pursue further civil action. There can be no assurances that this matter will be fully resolved by settlement or that other investigations or legal action related to
these matters will not be pursued against the Company in other jurisdictions or for different time frames.

Regulatory Compliance

The Company is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not necessarily limited to,
matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirements, reimbursement for patient services and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Government activity is ongoing with respect to investigations and
allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations by healthcare providers. See Legal Proceedings above. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in exclusion from government healthcare
programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. The Company believes that it is substantially in compliance with fraud and abuse statutes and their
applicable governmental interpretation.

The Company is from time to time subject to investigations relating to Medicare and Medicaid laws pertaining to
its industry. The Company cooperates fully with the government agencies that conduct these investigations. Such reviews cover periods prior to and following the Companys acquisition of certain operations. Management believes that reserves
established for specific contingencies of $2.9 million and $0.9 million as of June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, (including $2.5 million for the Texas matter described above at June 30, 2006 and $0.5 million related to Sioux Falls at June 30,
2005 which was paid during the second quarter 2006) are adequate based on information currently available.

(18) Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by the Company using available market information and valuation methodologies. Considerable
judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates may not be indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market
assumptions or valuation methodologies could have a material effect on the resulting fair value estimates.

The carrying values of cash, accounts
receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities approximate the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the Term Loan B, the 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes and the 12.75%
Senior Discount Notes were determined by quoted market prices as of June 30, 2006 and 2005.

(19) Segment Reporting

The Company provides emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services, private fire protection services, primarily on a subscription fee basis, and a variety of other services. The Company has four regionally-based reporting
segments which correspond with the manner in which the associated operations are managed and evaluated by the Companys senior management. These segments comprise operations within the following areas:



|        |  |

Each reportable segment provides medical transportation services while fire services are predominately centered in
Segments B and C.

The accounting policies used in the preparation of the Companys consolidated financial statements have also been followed in the
preparation of the accompanying financial information for each reporting segment. For management purposes, the Companys measure of segment profitability is defined as income from continuing operations before depreciation and amortization,

(20) Discontinued Operations

Fiscal 2006

During fiscal 2006, the Company discontinued all medical transportation services provided in the State
of New Jersey. The Company based this decision on the fact that its business consisted primarily of non-emergency medical transportation services business and the limited future potential to obtain 911 emergency transportation contracts in that
specific area. As a result of the discontinuation of this service area, the Company wrote-off approximately $1.0 million of goodwill. Additionally, the Company recognized $0.5 million of closure-related costs, primarily severance and lease
termination charges and an additional $2.6 million in uncompensated care. The financial results of this service area for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 are included in Segment A income (loss) from discontinued operations.

Also during fiscal 2006, the Company ceased operating in the City of Augusta, Georgia upon expiration of the Companys exclusive contract to provide medical
transportation services to that area. The Company elected not to pursue renewal of this contract based upon the one-year contract term and stipulations that would have been less beneficial to the Company. As a result of the discontinuation of this
service area, the Company recognized $0.3 million of closure-related costs, primarily lease termination charges, and an additional $0.7 million for uncompensated care. The financial results of this service area for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 are
included in Segment B income (loss) from discontinued operations.

The additional estimate for uncompensated care in New Jersey and Augusta discussed above
were recorded based upon the Companys experience with declines in accounts receivable collections for discontinued operations subsequent to exiting service areas.

As discussed in Note 16, during fiscal 2006, the Company recognized a $2.5 million charge related to an ongoing government investigation into certain of the Companys former operations in the State of Texas. This
charge has been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for fiscal 2006.

Fiscal 2005

During fiscal 2005, the Company ceased operating in four service areas located in Mississippi, New Jersey, Nebraska and Texas as a result of these service areas not
meeting internal operational and profitability measures. One of these businesses was sold in April 2005 at a pre-tax gain of $143,000. The Company also ceased operating in one service area in Arizona as part of a strategic decision to exit as the
contracted provider of fire protection services in that service area. The results of these service areas for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 are included in income from discontinued operations.

Fiscal 2004

During fiscal 2004, the Company ceased operating in ten
service areas in Maryland, South Carolina and Texas as a result of these service areas not meeting internal operational and profitability measures. The Company also ceased operating in one service area in New York due to the sale of the service area
for a pre-tax gain of $177,000, one service area in Texas due to the customer filing Chapter 11 and one service area in Arizona due to the city converting the service area to a fire district. In addition, one of the Companys protection
services businesses located in Arizona was classified as held for sale at June 30, 2004 and such sale closed during the first quarter of fiscal 2005 at a loss of $24,000. The results of these service areas for the years ended June 30, 2004
are included in income from discontinued operations.

(21) Related Party Transactions

The Company incurred rental expense of $88,000, $84,000 and $84,000 in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 related to leases of fire and medical transportation facilities with the
trustee for the estate of a former director of the Company.

The Company incurred consulting fees of $15,000 with a director of the Company for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2006. The Company incurred consulting fees of $36,000 with two directors of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005.

(22) Subsequent Events

On July 25, 2006, the Company was notified by the Town of Paradise Valley that it desired to terminate its
contract for fire protection services effective June 30, 2007. The Town cited its location in the center of a growing urban area and its desire to transition services to the City of Phoenix Fire Department as primary reasons for its decision.
The Company currently provides fire protection services on a subscription-fee basis to individual property owners in Paradise Valley.

On March 13,
2007, the Company obtained a waiver under the 2005 Credit Facility for any defaults relating to the restatement and the untimely filing of this Form 10-Q. See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements.

Restatement

As discussed in the Explanatory Note to this Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, and in Note [3] of the footnotes to the consolidated
financial statements contained in Part [II], Item [8] of this Amendment, along with the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K, Item 4.02, dated February 13, 2007, management of the Company has amended its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006 to restate the Companys annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and the interim consolidated financial statements for each of the
quarters within the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and to restate Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting as of June 30, 2006. Additionally, management of the Company has amended its Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 to restate the Companys interim consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The determination to restate these consolidated financial statements was made as a
result of the Companys identification of certain accounting practice errors relating to its inventory. Specifically, the Company has determined that certain durable medical supply items were incorrectly included in inventory. Historically, the
Company has counted these items as inventory and valued them within its inventory balance.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this Report (the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006).
In its Original Filing for this period, filed with the Commission on September 22, 2006, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer previously concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were
effective as of June 30, 2006.

In connection with the restatement discussed above, management of the Company, under the supervision and with the
participation of the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has re-evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2006. Based upon this re-evaluation and solely as a result of
the material weakness described below under Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (Restated), the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2006.

Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (Restated)

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule
13a-15(f)). 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 or procedures may deteriorate.



113



---

##### Table of Contents

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006. In
making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control  Integrated Framework(the COSO).

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the
annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As of June 30, 2006, the Company did not maintain effective controls over the classification of certain durable medical supply items within inventory. Specifically, the
Company did not have effective review procedures to detect that certain durable medical supply items were improperly included in inventory. This control deficiency resulted in the restatement of the Companys fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 annual
consolidated financial statements, the interim consolidated financial statements for each of the quarters within the fiscal years in 2006 and 2005, and the interim consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
Additionally, this control deficiency could result in a material misstatement of our inventory and operating expenses that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented
or detected. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

In Managements Report on Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting included in the Companys Original Filing, management previously concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006. However, in connection with
the restatement discussed in the Explanatory Note to this Form 10-K/A and in Note 3 of the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements, management has subsequently determined that the material weakness described above existed as of
June 30, 2006. As a result, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006 based on criteria established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework
issued by the COSO. Accordingly, Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting has been restated.

Our managements assessment
of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2006 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears in Part II,
Item 8 of this report.

Remediation of Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In an effort to remediate the material weakness described above and in connection with the preparation of this Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, the Company has
conducted and completed a review of its accounting for inventory and corrected its method of accounting. These steps were completed subsequent to June 30, 2006 but prior to the filing date of this Amendment. While the remediation measures have
improved the design effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, the newly designed controls have not yet operated for a sufficient period of time to demonstrate operating effectiveness. We continue to monitor and assess our
remediation activities to ensure that the material weakness discussed above is remediated as soon as practicable. Additionally, management intends to enhance its controls and procedures related to the performance and analysis of periodic physical
inventory counts so as to properly identify items that should be excluded from the inventory balance. Management currently expects that these steps will be completed by June 30, 2007.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As previously disclosed under Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial
reporting based on the criteria established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. In such report, we reported a material weakness with respect to the accounting for income taxes.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we have remediated the material weakness in our internal control related to the accounting for income taxes. Our
remediation focused on hiring of a director of taxation, improved processes and control procedures used in the preparation and review of the annual and interim tax provisions and the implementation of a comprehensive training program for accounting
and finance personnel with regard to accounting for income taxes. Management has evaluated the design of these new procedures, placed them in operation for a sufficient period of time, and subjected them to appropriate tests in order to conclude
that they were operating effectively. Therefore, management has concluded that the material weakness related to income taxes was remediated as of June 30, 2006.

The items noted above were changes in internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.
