  Election of Directors
 
     Pursuant to the Employment Agreement between Charles A. Laverty and

to be elected as a voting member of the Urohealth Board of Directors during the
term of his employment. Pursuant to an agreement between Urohealth and Avatax

Convertible Debentures, and the holders of the Convertible Debentures have
elected not to name a second nominee at this time. There are no other
arrangements or understandings between any director or executive officer and any
other person pursuant to which such director or executive officer was or is to
be elected as a director or executive officer, as applicable.
 
  Directors' Fees
 
     Each Urohealth director who is not a salaried officer is entitled to
receive $10,000 per year and $1,000 for each directors' and committee meeting
attended. Directors are also entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred in
connection with business of Urohealth. Directors also receive annual grants of
options to purchase 7,500 shares of Urohealth Common Stock after each annual
stockholders meeting pursuant to the Urohealth 1996 Directors' Stock Incentive
Plan.
 
  Committees of the Board
 
     Urohealth currently has three committees of the Board of Directors, the
Executive Committee, the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.
 
     The Executive Committee, currently consists of Messrs. Laverty and Goelman,
exercises the power of the Board of Directors (except for certain powers that
may only be exercised by the full Board) in monitoring the management of the
business of Urohealth between meetings of the Urohealth Board of Directors.
 
     The Audit Committee, currently consists of Messrs. Goelman, Butler and
Tedesco, recommends the appointment of Urohealth's independent public
accountants, reviews and approves the scope of the annual audit and reviews the
results thereof with Urohealth's independent accountants. The Audit Committee
also assists the Urohealth Board of Directors in reviewing Urohealth's business
ethics and conflict of interests policies.
 
     The Compensation Committee, consisting of Messrs. Goelman, Elkins and
Estrin, reviews and establishes the salary, bonus and stock awards received by
Urohealth's Chief Executive Officer, and, in consultation with the Chief
Executive Officer, reviews the compensation of the other executive officers of
Urohealth. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for administering
Urohealth's 1994 Stock Incentive Plan and other stock-based incentive plans. The
Compensation Committee determines the recipients of awards, sets the exercise
price of shares granted and determines the terms, provisions and conditions of
all rights granted.
 
  Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
 
     During fiscal 1997, the Compensation Committee consisted of Messrs.
Goelman, Elkins and Estrin. None of these person is or has been as officer or
employee of Urohealth or any of its subsidiaries. In addition, except as
described below, there are no Board of Directors or Compensation Committee
interlocks between Urohealth and other entities involving Urohealth's executive
officers and Board members who serve as executive officers of such entities.
During fiscal 1997, Charles A. Laverty and Lawrence Goelman (a member of
Urohealth's compensation committee) served on the Board of Directors of Pinnacle
Micro, Inc. During a portion of the year Mr. Goelman served as acting Chief
Executive Officer of Pinnacle Micro, Inc. Neither Mr. Goelman nor Mr. Laverty
has any current relationship with Pinnacle Micro, Inc. During fiscal 1997,
Charles A. Laverty served on the Board of Directors (and compensation committee)
and Robert N. Elkins (a
 
                                        4
<PAGE>   6
 
member of Urohealth's compensation committee) served as Chairman of the Board of
Integrated Living Communities, Inc.
 
  Attendance at Board and Committee Meetings
 
     During the fiscal year ended March 31, 1997, the Board of Directors met 16
times. In addition, the Audit Committee met one time and the Compensation
Committee met four times. The Executive Committee did not meet on a formal basis
during the year. Each director, except for Mr. Elkins and Ms. Givens, attended
75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings held by the Board of Directors
and all committees of the Board of Directors on which such directors served.
 
  Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
 
     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires
Urohealth's executive officers and directors to file reports of beneficial
ownership on Form 3 and changes in beneficial ownership on Forms 4 and 5 with
the SEC. Executive officers and directors are also required by the SEC rules to
furnish Urohealth with copies of all Section 16(a) reports which they file.
Based solely on its review of the Forms 3, 4 and 5 provided to or filed on
behalf of its executive officers and directors, as well as written
representations from these individuals regarding Forms 5, Urohealth believes
that, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1997, all Section 16(a) filing
requirements applicable to its executive officers and directors were complied
with pursuant to the SEC rules, except for Form 5s relating to shares purchased
under Urohealth's Employee Stock Purchase Plan by Messrs. Johnson, Higgins and
Condie which were filed late.

  1996 Directors' Stock Incentive Plan
 
     In July 1996, Urohealth approved the 1996 Directors' Stock Incentive Plan
(the "Directors' Plan") which authorizes the issuance of up to 300,000 shares of
Common Stock in the form of stock options to non-employee directors of
Urohealth. The Directors' Plan was approved by Urohealth stockholders in August
1996. Under the Directors' Plan, each non-employee director of Urohealth
automatically receives an option to purchase 7,500 shares of Urohealth Common
Stock upon joining the Urohealth Board of Directors and an additional 7,500
share option immediately following each annual meeting of stockholders. Options
are granted at fair market value on the date of grant and have a ten-year term.
Options vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant; provided, that the
options become immediately exercisable upon a "change of control."
 
  Retirement Savings Plan
 
     In January 1995, Urohealth adopted the Urohealth Retirement Savings Plan
(the "401(k) Plan") under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The
401(k) Plan generally covers all full-time employees of Urohealth who are over
age 21 and have completed one year of service with at least 1,000 hours of
service. Employees may elect to defer, in the form of contributions to the
401(k) Plan, from 1% up to 12% of their annual compensation, subject to the
federal maximum limit. No matching contributions are expected to be made by
Urohealth relating to fiscal 1997. Employees are fully vested in contributions
made by them to the
 
                                        7
<PAGE>   9
 
401(k) Plan. Employees become vested in contributions made by Urohealth after
completion of two years of service.
 
  Employment Agreements
 
     CHARLES A. LAVERTY. Urohealth and Mr. Laverty are parties to an Amended and
Restated Employment Agreement, dated April 1, 1996, pursuant to which Mr.
Laverty serves as Urohealth's Chief Executive Officer. The initial term of the
agreement is through April 1, 1999, after which date the agreement automatically
renews for successive three-year terms unless either party exercises their
option to terminate the agreement. Mr. Laverty's salary under the agreement was
$450,000 for fiscal 1997, adjusted annually, plus bonuses. Mr. Laverty's base
salary under the agreement was increased to $500,000 beginning in fiscal 1998.
 
     Urohealth may terminate the agreement for "cause" which is defined as (a)
Mr. Laverty's final conviction of a felony related to his duties under the
agreement or (b) Mr. Laverty's willful failure to perform his reasonable
responsibilities and duties under the agreement after 30 days notice from the
Board. In the event that Mr. Laverty terminates the agreement without cause at
any time during the last two quarters of any fiscal year any options scheduled
to vest during such fiscal year shall automatically vest as of the date of
termination. If Urohealth terminates the agreement for any reason other than for
cause, or if Mr. Laverty terminates the agreement due a material breach by
Urohealth of its obligations under the agreement, then Urohealth will be
obligated to (A) pay to Mr. Laverty severance pay equal to three years of his
salary and earned bonus as of the date of such termination and (B) provide and
pay for all benefits to which Mr. Laverty is entitled under the agreement for a
period of three years after termination. In addition, if Urohealth terminates
the agreement for any reason other than for cause, or if Mr. Laverty terminates
the agreement due to a material breach by Urohealth, all options then granted to
Mr. Laverty will become immediately vested and exercisable.
 
     Mr. Laverty may terminate the agreement upon 30 days notice upon or within
one year after a "Change of Control" as such term is defined in the agreement.
If Mr. Laverty terminates the agreement for any reason (including with or
without cause) upon or within one year after a Change of Control, Urohealth is
obligated to (A) pay to Mr. Laverty severance equal to $2,500,000 and (B)
provide and pay for all benefits to which he is entitled under the agreement for
a period of three years after termination. In addition, all options then held by
Mr. Laverty will become immediately vested and exercisable. If, however, an
event giving rise to a Change of Control is initiated by Urohealth, then prior
to the Urohealth Board approving the Change of Control, Mr. Laverty must inform
the Board whether he intends to terminate the agreement. If Mr. Laverty informs
the Board that he does not intend to terminate the agreement as a result of the
Change of Control, he will forfeit all termination and payment rights in the
agreement based on that particular Change of Control.
 
     Mr. Laverty agreed that during his employment and for a period of 18 months
after he ceases to be employed by Urohealth, regardless of the manner of
termination and except as limited by the agreement, he will not compete with
Urohealth.
 
     BRUCE A. HAZUKA. Urohealth and Mr. Hazuka are parties to an employment
agreement dated November 30, 1995 pursuant to which Mr. Hazuka serves as a
member of senior management of Urohealth. The agreement provides for an initial
one-year term with two automatic one-year renewals thereafter. Mr. Hazuka's
annual salary under the agreement is $200,000, adjusted annually (currently at
$300,000), plus bonuses. Urohealth can terminate Mr. Hazuka's employment for
cause (as defined in the agreement). Urohealth can terminate Mr. Hazuka's
employment without cause upon at least 90 days' prior notice, in which case all
of the options then held by Mr. Hazuka shall become immediately vested and
exercisable, and Mr. Hazuka shall be entitled to severance equal to the amount
of his salary for the remaining term of the agreement (including extensions
thereof).
 
     Following a "change of control" (as defined in the agreement), Mr. Hazuka
may terminate the agreement with or without "good reason" (as defined in the
agreement), upon 30 days' notice given at any time during the one-year period
after the change of control. If Mr. Hazuka terminates his employment during the
one-year period after the change of control for good reason, or if his
employment is terminated without cause during such period, then he shall be
entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to the
 
                                        8
<PAGE>   10
 
greater of (i) one times his salary and bonus for the 12 months preceding the
change of control and (ii) the remaining amount of salary payable for the term
of the agreement.
 
     PAUL PETERSEN. Urohealth and Mr. Petersen are parties to an employment
agreement dated December 29, 1995 pursuant to which Mr. Petersen serves as a
member of senior management of Urohealth. The agreement provides for an initial
one-year term, with two automatic one-year renewals thereafter. Mr. Petersen's
annual salary under the agreement is $125,000, adjusted annually (currently
$214,000, with minimum guaranteed bonuses), plus bonuses. Urohealth can
terminate Mr. Petersen's employment for cause (as defined in the agreement).
Urohealth can terminate Mr. Petersen's employment without cause upon at least 90
days' prior notice, in which case Mr. Petersen shall be entitled to severance
equal to the amount of his salary and bonus for the remaining term of the
agreement (including extensions thereof).
 
     Following a "change of control" (as defined in the agreement), Mr. Petersen
may terminate the agreement with or without "good reason" (as defined in the
agreement), upon 30 days' notice given at any time during the one-year period
after the change of control. If Mr. Petersen terminates his employment during
the one-year period after the change of control for good reason then he shall be
entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to one times his salary
and bonus for the 12 months preceding the change of control.
 
     MICHAEL SCHULER. Urohealth and Mr. Schuler are parties to an employment
agreement dated January 2, 1996 pursuant to which Mr. Schuler serves as a member
of senior management of Urohealth. The agreement provides for an initial
one-year term, with two automatic one-year renewals thereafter. Mr. Schuler's
annual salary under the agreement is $225,000 plus bonuses. Urohealth can
terminate Mr. Schuler's employment for cause (as defined in the agreement).
Urohealth can terminate Mr. Schuler's employment without cause upon at least 90
days' prior notice, in which case Mr. Schuler is entitled to severance equal to
the amount of his salary for the remaining term of the agreement (including
extensions thereof).
 
     Following a "change of control" (as defined in the agreement), Mr. Schuler
may terminate the agreement with or without "good reason" (as defined in the
agreement), upon 30 days' notice given at any time during the one-year period
after the change of control. If Mr. Schuler terminates his employment during the
one-year period after the change of control for good reason, or if his
employment is terminated by Urohealth without cause, then he shall be entitled
to receive a severance payment equal to the greater of (i) one times his salary
and bonus for the 12 months preceding the change of control and (ii) the
remaining amount of salary payable for the term of the agreement.

  Report of the Compensation Committee on Executive Compensation
 
     GENERAL
 
     The Urohealth Board of Directors has a Compensation Committee (the
"Committee"), consisting of Dr. Elkins, Mr. Estrin, and Mr. Goelman. The
Committee is charged by the Board of Directors with establishing a compensation
plan which will enable Urohealth to compete effectively for the services of
qualified officers and key employees, to give such employees appropriate
incentive to pursue the maximization of long-term stockholder value and to
recognize such employees' success in achieving both qualitative and quantitative
goals for the benefit of Urohealth. The Committee establishes appropriate levels
of compensation for specific individuals, as well as compensation and benefit
programs for Urohealth as a whole.
 
     COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY AND POLICIES FOR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
 
     As its first principle, the Committee believes that executives of Urohealth
should be rewarded based upon their success in meeting Urohealth's operational
goals, improving its earnings, maintaining its leadership role in the
urological, gynecological and minimally invasive surgical instrument business,
and generating consistent and superior returns for its stockholders. The
Committee strives to establish levels of compensation that take such factors
into account and provide appropriate recognition for past achievement and
incentives for future success. The Committee recognizes that the demand for
executives with expertise and experience in the areas of medical devices and
services within the healthcare services fields is intense. In order to attract
and retain qualified persons, the Committee believes that Urohealth must offer
current compensation at levels consistent with those of other publicly-traded
healthcare companies. In addition, the Committee believes that it is in the best
interests of Urohealth's stockholders to offer its executives meaningful equity
participation in Urohealth, in order that those executives' interests will be
aligned with those of Urohealth's stockholders. The Committee feels that the
historic mix of cash compensation and equity participation has proven to be
effective in stimulating Urohealth's executives to meet both long-term and
short-term goals and has been a major factor in limiting turnover among senior
executives.
 
     Urohealth's compensation program has three distinct elements: base salary;
incentive compensation, including both cash incentive compensation and
equity-based compensation; and retirement compensation. These elements are
discussed below:
 
     Base Salary: While the demand for experienced managers in the healthcare
industry continues to grow, Urohealth has been very successful in attracting and
retaining key executives. Urohealth believes that its compensation package is
instrumental in such success. The Committee endeavors to establish base salary
levels for those key executives which are consistent with those provided for
similarly situated executives of other publicly-traded healthcare companies,
taking into account each executive's areas and level of responsibility,
historical performance and tenure with Urohealth. In establishing such levels,
Urohealth considers compensation for executives of other publicly-traded
providers of healthcare services, as well as other publicly-traded companies of
similar size and with a similar growth rate. Compensation decisions are not
targeted to specific levels in the range of compensation paid by such companies,
nor does Urohealth maintain a record of where its compensation stands with
respect to such other companies. However, the Committee takes such levels of
compensation into account in determining appropriate levels of compensation for
Urohealth's executives.
 
     Incentive Compensation: In addition to base salary, the Committee
establishes cash incentive compensation for executives of Urohealth, based upon
each such executive's success in meeting qualitative and quantitative
performance goals on an annual basis. Individual incentive bonuses are
determined on a basis that takes into account each executive's success in
achieving standards of performance, which may or may not be quantitative,
established by the Committee and such executive's superiors. Bonus
determinations are made on
 
                                       10
<PAGE>   12
 
a case-by-case basis, taking into account appropriate quantitative and
qualitative factors, and there is no fixed relationship between any particular
performance factor and the amount of a given executive's bonus. Incentive
compensation can be a major component of Urohealth's executive compensation, and
the Committee believes that placing executives at risk for such a component is
effective in motivating such executives to achieve such goals.
 
     In addition to cash incentive compensation, as a growth company, Urohealth
utilizes equity-based compensation, in the form of stock options, as a tool to
encourage its executives to work to meet its operational goals and maximize
long-term stockholder value. Because the value of stock options granted to an
executive is directly related to Urohealth's success in enhancing its market
value over time, the Committee feels that its stock option program is a very
effective tool in aligning the interests of management and stockholders.
 
     The Committee determines stock option grants under Urohealth's stock option
plans. Specific grants are determined taking into account an executive's current
responsibilities and historical performance, as well as the executive's
perceived contribution to Urohealth's results of operations. Options are also
used to give incentive to newly-promoted officers at the time that they are
asked to assume greater responsibilities, and, in some cases, to executives who
have joined Urohealth through acquisitions and have assumed significant
leadership roles within Urohealth. In evaluating option grants, the Committee
considers prior grants and shares currently held, as well as the recipient's
success in meeting operational goals and the recipient's level of
responsibility. However, no fixed formula is utilized to determine particular
grants. The Committee believes that the opportunity to acquire a significant
equity interest in Urohealth has been a strong motivation for Urohealth's
executives to pursue the long-term interests of Urohealth and its stockholders,
and has promoted longevity and retention of key executives. Information relating
to stock options granted to the five most highly-compensated executive officers
of Urohealth is set forth elsewhere in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
 
     Retirement Compensation: As described elsewhere herein, in 1991 the Company
adopted a 401(k) retirement plan in order to give all full-time employees an
opportunity to provide for their retirement on a tax-advantaged basis.
 
     CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION
 
     Urohealth is a party to an Employment Agreement with Charles Laverty,
pursuant to which Mr. Laverty is employed as Chairman of the Board, Chief
Executive Officer and President of Urohealth for a three-year term which ends
March 31, 1999. In addition, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to
cause Mr. Laverty to be elected as a Director of Urohealth during the term of
the Agreement. Under the Agreement, Mr. Laverty received a base salary of
$450,000 in fiscal 1997 (increased to $500,000 for fiscal 1998 and each year
thereafter), with incentive compensation of up to $2,000,000, subject to annual
review by the Board of Directors, and is entitled to participate in any bonus
plan approved by the Board of Directors for Urohealth's management. Mr. Laverty
was granted an additional 1,500,000 stock options vesting over 36 months at the
closing price of a share of Urohealth Common Stock on May 21, 1997. Such
additional option grant was based on the Committee's assessment of Mr. Laverty's
contribution to Urohealth as the builder of the urological, gynecological and
minimally invasive surgical platforms for Urohealth, including his role in the
consummation of eight acquisitions during 1996 and 1997,
 
as well as Urohealth's success in achieving annual budgeted net income targets
and other factors described below. Mr. Laverty is also provided with a car
allowance and with life and disability insurance. Under the Agreement, Mr.
Laverty's employment may be terminated for cause or if he should become
disabled. Termination of Mr. Laverty's employment under the Agreement will
result in certain severance pay arrangements. In the event that Urohealth were
to be acquired, merged or reorganized in such a manner as to result in a change
of control of the Company, Mr. Laverty has the right to terminate his employment
under the Agreement, in which case he will receive a lump sum payment equal to
five years' annual base salary (including the gross incentive portion thereof)
under the Agreement. Mr. Laverty has agreed not to compete with Urohealth for an
eighteen month period after any such termination. The Committee approved an
amendment to the Agreement that provides for Mr. Laverty to receive certain
payments in the event that Urohealth is merged or combined with another
corporation in a transaction in which Urohealth is not the
 
                                       11
<PAGE>   13
 
surviving or continuing entity. The amount of the fee would be equal to the
greater of: (i) 1% of value of such transaction in excess of $20 per share; and
(ii) 1% of the capitalization of Urohealth in excess of $640 million.
 
     The Committee reports to the Board of Directors on compensation
arrangements with Mr. Laverty and recommends to the Board of Directors the level
of incentive compensation, both cash and equity-based, which is appropriate for
Mr. Laverty with respect to each fiscal year of Urohealth. In making such
recommendation, the Committee takes into account Urohealth's performance in the
marketplace, its success in meeting strategic goals and its success in meeting
budgets. Again, ultimate compensation decisions are not made in a formulary
manner, but in a manner which takes into account Urohealth's competitive
position, its position in the financial markets, and the significant
contributions made by Mr. Laverty to the success of Urohealth. In making its
decisions with respect to Mr. Laverty's compensation, the Committee believes
that it is appropriate to recognize the significant role Mr. Laverty has played
in building Urohealth to its current position and that under his leadership
Urohealth has significantly enhanced stockholder value over a period of years
and continues to grow in assets, net revenues, net income and market value.
 
     SECTION 162(M) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE
 
     The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 contained a provision under
which a publicly-traded corporation is sometimes precluded from taking a federal
income tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 that is paid to
the chief executive officer and the four other most highly-compensated
executives of the corporation during a corporation's tax year. Compensation in
excess of $1,000,000 continues to be deductible if that compensation is
"performance based" within the meaning of that term under Section 162(m) of the
Internal Revenue Code. Certain transition rules apply with respect to stock
option plans which were approved prior to December 20, 1993, pursuant to Rule
16b-3(b) under the Exchange Act.
 
     Urohealth believes that its employee stock option plans meet the
requirements of Section 162(m) as performance-based plans; however, the
Committee does from time to time grant options outside the employee stock option
plans. The Committee and the Board of Directors have currently made a decision
not to amend Urohealth's cash compensation programs to meet all requirements of
Section 162(m) because such a decision would not be in the best interests of
Urohealth's stockholders. The Committee believes that, in establishing bonus and
incentive awards, certain subjective factors must be taken into account in
particular cases, based upon the experienced judgment of the Committee members
as well as on factors which may be objectively quantified. The preservation of
tax deductibility of all compensation is an important consideration. However,
the Committee believes that it is important that Urohealth retain the
flexibility to reward superior effort and accomplishment even where all cash
compensation may not be fully deductible. The Committee will continue to review
the requirements for deductibility under Section 162(m) and will take such
requirements into account in the future as it deems appropriate and in the best
interests of Urohealth's stockholders.
 
     CONCLUSIONS
 
     The Committee believes that the levels and mix of compensation provided to
Urohealth's executives during fiscal 1997 were appropriate and were instrumental
in the achievement of Urohealth's goals for fiscal 1997. It is the intent of the
Committee to ensure that Urohealth's compensation programs continue to motivate
its executives and reward them for being responsive to the long-term interests
of Urohealth and its stockholders.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
 
     In May 1996, Urohealth sold $50 million of its 8.75% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures due May 30, 2006 (the "Convertible Debentures") to a
group of investors in a private placement transaction. The Convertible
Debentures are convertible into Urohealth Common Stock at a conversion price,
subject to adjustment, of $10.90 per share, and the holders of the Convertible
Debentures vote with the holders of the Urohealth Common Stock on an "as
converted" basis. In connection with the placement of the Convertible
Debentures, Urohealth also issued warrants to purchase a total of 250,000 shares
of Urohealth Common Stock at an exercise price, subject to adjustment, of
$10.90. An entity affiliated with Dr. Blutt, a director of the Urohealth,
purchased $22.7 million of the Convertible Debentures and the warrants, and
entities affiliated with Mr. Gross, a director of Urohealth, purchased $22.7
million of Convertible Debentures and warrants.
 
     In connection with the acquisition of Richard-Allan by Urohealth, Urohealth
entered into a three-year employment agreement with Richard R. Newhauser for an
annual salary of $350,000, and into a consulting agreement pursuant to which Mr.
Newhauser will provide consulting services to Urohealth for a five-year period
after expiration of the employment agreement for $200,000 per year. In addition,
Urohealth has agreed to provide Mr. Newhauser health insurance benefits during
the terms of the employment and consulting agreements and during his retirement
thereafter.
 
     In connection with the acquisition of Richard-Allan, Urohealth purchased
from a partnership of which Mr. Newhauser was a general partner, the real
property on which the Richard-Allan operations were conducted for a purchase
price of $4.5 million, of which $1.5 million was paid in cash at the closing and
the balance of which is represented by a $3.0 million promissory note which
bears interest at 8 1/4% per annum. The interest on the note paid periodically
throughout the term of the note and the principal is due and payable on the
tenth anniversary of the closing.
 
     During fiscal 1997, Urohealth loaned $550,000 to Charles A. Laverty,
Urohealth's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The loan bears interest at a
rate of 6.02% per annum and all principal and interest under the note is due and
payable on the earlier of (a) November 25, 1999 and (b) 30 days after
termination of Mr. Laverty's employment agreement. Subsequent to March 31, 1997,
Urohealth loaned $1,500,000 to Mr. Laverty on the same terms and conditions as
the earlier loan.
 
     During fiscal 1997, Urohealth made payments of $81,667 to HCA, Inc. in
payment for consulting services provided to Urohealth in prior fiscal years.
Bruce A. Hazuka, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of
Urohealth, is an executive officer and controlling stockholder of HCA, Inc..
