make Stock Grants to Employees and Directors in order (1) to attract and retain
Employees and Directors, (2) to provide an additional incentive to an Employee
or Director to work to increase the value of Stock and (3) to provide an
Employee or Director with a stake in the future of PracticeWorks which
corresponds to the stake of each of PracticeWorks' stockholders. This Plan is an
amendment and restatement of the PracticeWorks, Inc. 2000 Broad-Based Stock Plan
that PracticeWorks adopted on August 10, 2000.

Act) becomes after the effective date of this Plan the beneficial owner (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the

<PAGE>   5

1934 Act) directly or indirectly of securities representing 50% or more of
the combined voting power for election of directors of the then outstanding
securities of PracticeWorks, (3) the individuals who at the beginning of any
period of two consecutive years or less constitute the Board cease for any
reason during such period to constitute at least a majority of the Board, unless

approved by vote of at least two-thirds of the members of the Board then still
in office who were members of the Board at the beginning of such period, (4) the
shareholders of PracticeWorks approve any dissolution or liquidation of
PracticeWorks or any sale or disposition of 50% or more of the assets or
business of PracticeWorks or (5) the shareholders of PracticeWorks approve a
merger or consolidation to which PracticeWorks is a party (other than a merger
or consolidation with a wholly-owned subsidiary of PracticeWorks) or a share
exchange in which PracticeWorks shall exchange PracticeWorks shares for shares
of another corporation as a result of which the persons who were shareholders of

of the combined voting power for election of directors of the surviving
corporation following the effective date of such merger, consolidation or share

         2.7      Employee -- means an employee of PracticeWorks or any

                                     ss. 5.

                                   COMMITTEE

         This Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee acting
in its absolute discretion shall exercise such powers and take such action as
expressly called for under this Plan and, further, the Committee shall have the
power to interpret this Plan and (subject to ss. 14 and ss. 15 and Rule 16b-3)
to take such other action in the administration and operation of this Plan as
the Committee deems equitable under the circumstances, which action shall be
binding on PracticeWorks, on each affected Employee or Director and on each
other person directly or indirectly affected by such action.

                                     ss. 6.

                       ELIGIBILITY AND ANNUAL GRANT CAPS

         Only Employees who are employed by PracticeWorks or a Subsidiary or a
Parent shall be eligible for a grant of ISOs under the Plan. All Employees and
Directors shall be eligible for the grant of Non-ISOs and Stock Appreciation
Rights and for Stock Grants under this Plan. No Employee or Director shall be
granted in any calendar year an Option to purchase (subject to ss. 13) more than
1,000,000 shares of Stock or a Stock Appreciation Right based on the
appreciation with respect to (subject to ss. 13) more than 1,000,000 shares of
Stock.

                                     ss. 7.

                                  OPTIONS 7.1


                                      -7-
<PAGE>   11

         7.1      Committee Action. The Committee acting in its absolute
discretion shall have the right to grant Options to Employees and to Directors
under this Plan from time to time to purchase shares of Stock and, further, the
Committee shall have the right to grant new Options in exchange for the
cancellation of outstanding Options which have a higher or lower Option Price
than the new Options. Each grant of an Option to a Employee or Director shall be
evidenced by an Option Certificate, and each Option Certificate shall set forth
whether the Option is an ISO or a Non-ISO and shall set forth such terms and
conditions to such grant as the Committee acting in its absolute discretion
deems consistent with the terms of this Plan; however, if the Committee grants
an ISO and a Non-ISO to an Employee on the same date, the right of the Employee
to exercise the ISO shall not be conditioned on his or her failure to exercise
the Non-ISO.

         7.2      $100,000 Limit. No Option shall be treated as an ISO to the
extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Stock subject to the Option
which would first become exercisable in any calendar year exceeds $100,000. Any
such excess shall instead automatically be treated as a Non-ISO. The Committee
shall interpret and administer the ISO limitation set forth in this ss. 7.2 in
accordance with ss. 422(d) of the Code, and the Committee shall treat this ss.
7.2 as in effect only for those periods for which ss. 422(d) of the Code is in
effect.

         7.3      Option Price. The Option Price for each share of Stock subject
to an Option shall be no less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on
the date the Option is granted; provided, however, if the Option is an ISO
granted to an


                                      -8-
<PAGE>   12

Employee who is a Ten Percent Shareholder, the Option Price for each share of
Stock subject to such ISO shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of
a share of Stock on the date such ISO is granted.

         7.4      Payment. The Option Price shall be payable in full upon the
exercise of any Option, and at the discretion of the Committee an Option
Certificate can provide for the payment of the Option Price either in cash, by
check or in Stock which has been held for at least 6 months and which is
acceptable to the Committee or in any combination of cash, check and such Stock.
The Option Price in addition may be paid through any cashless exercise procedure
which is acceptable to the Committee or its delegate and which is facilitated
through a sale of Stock. Any payment made in Stock shall be treated as equal to
the Fair Market Value of such Stock on the date the certificate for such Stock
(or proper evidence of such certificate) is presented to the Committee or its
delegate in such form as acceptable to the Committee.

         7.5      Exercise Period. Each Option granted under this Plan shall be
exercisable in whole or in part at such time or times as set forth in the
related Option Certificate, but no Option Certificate shall make an Option
exercisable on or after the earlier of

                  (1)      the date which is the fifth anniversary of the date
                           the Option is granted, if the Option is an ISO and
                           the Employee is a Ten Percent Shareholder on the date
                           the Option is granted, or

                  (2)      the date which is the tenth anniversary of the date
                           the Option is granted, if the Option is (a) a Non-ISO
                           or (b) an ISO which


                                      -9-
<PAGE>   13

                           is granted to an Employee who is not a Ten Percent
                           Shareholder on the date the Option is granted.

         An Option Certificate may provide for the exercise of an Option after
the employment of an Employee or a Director's status as such has terminated for
any reason whatsoever, including death or disability.

         7.6      Reload Option Grants. The Committee as part of the grant of an
Option may provide in the related Option Certificate for the automatic grant of
an additional Option as of each date that an Employee or Director exercises the
original Option if the Employee or Director in connection with such exercise
uses (in accordance with ss. 7.4) Stock to pay all or a part of the Option Price
or uses Stock to satisfy all or a part of any related tax withholding
requirement. As for each such additional Option,

                  (1)      the number of shares of Stock subject to the
                           additional Option shall be no more than the number of
                           shares of Stock used to pay the related Option Price
                           or to satisfy the related withholding requirement,

                  (2)      the Option Price shall be no less than the Fair
                           Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of the
                           related exercise of the original Option,

                  (3)      the additional Option shall expire no later than the
                           expiration date for the original Option,

                  (4)      the additional Option shall be subject to such other
                           terms and conditions as the Committee deems
                           appropriate under the circumstances, and

                  (5)      the additional Option shall be evidenced by a Stock
                           Option Certificate.

                                     ss. 8.

                            STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

         8.1      Committee Action. The Committee acting in its absolute
discretion shall have the right to grant Stock Appreciation Rights to Employees
and to Directors under this Plan from time to time, and each Stock Appreciation
Right grant shall be evidenced by a Stock Appreciation Right Certificate or, if
such Stock Appreciation Right is granted as part of an Option, shall be
evidenced by the Option Certificate for the related Option.

         8.2      Terms and Conditions.

                  (a)      Stock Appreciation Right Certificate. If a Stock
                           Appreciation Right is evidenced by a Stock
                           Appreciation Right Certificate, such certificate
                           shall set forth the number of shares of Stock on
                           which the Employee's or Director's right to
                           appreciation shall be based and the SAR Value of each
                           share of Stock. Such SAR Value shall be no less than
                           the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date
                           that the Stock Appreciation Right is granted. The
                           Stock Appreciation Right Certificate


                                      -11-
<PAGE>   15

                           shall set forth such other terms and conditions for
                           the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right as the
                           Committee deems appropriate under the circumstances,
                           but no Stock Appreciation Right Certificate shall
                           make a Stock Appreciation Right exercisable on or
                           after the date which is the tenth anniversary of the
                           date such Stock Appreciation Right is granted.

                  (b)      Option Certificate. If a Stock Appreciation Right is
                           evidenced by an Option Certificate, the number of
                           shares of Stock on which the Employee's or Director's
                           right to appreciation shall be based shall be the
                           same as the number of shares of Stock subject to the
                           related Option and the SAR Value for each such share
                           of Stock shall be no less than the Option Price under
                           the related Option. Each such Option Certificate
                           shall provide that the exercise of the Stock
                           Appreciation Right with respect to any share of Stock
                           shall cancel the Employee's or Director's right to
                           exercise his or her Option with respect to such share
                           and, conversely, that the exercise of the Option with
                           respect to any share of Stock shall cancel the
                           Employee's or Director's right to exercise his or her
                           Stock Appreciation Right with respect to such share.
                           A Stock Appreciation Right which is granted as part
                           of an


                                      -12-
<PAGE>   16

                           Option shall be exercisable only while the related
                           Option is exercisable. The Option Certificate shall
                           set forth such other terms and conditions for the
                           exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right as the
                           Committee deems appropriate under the circumstances.

         8.3      Exercise. A Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable only
when the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on which the right to
appreciation is based exceeds the SAR Value for such share, and the payment due
on exercise shall be based on such excess with respect to the number of shares
of Stock to which the exercise relates. An Employee or Director upon the
exercise of his or her Stock Appreciation Right shall receive a payment from
PracticeWorks in cash or in Stock issued under this Plan, or in a combination of
cash and Stock, and the number of shares of Stock issued shall be based on the
Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date the Stock Appreciation Right
is exercised. The Committee acting in its absolute discretion shall have the
right to determine the form and time of any payment under this ss. 8.3.

                                     ss. 9.

                                  STOCK GRANTS

         9.1      Committee Action. The Committee acting in its absolute
discretion shall have the right to make Stock Grants to Employees and to
Directors. Each Stock Grant shall be evidenced by a Stock Grant Certificate, and
each Stock Grant Certificate shall set forth the conditions, if any, under which
Stock will be issued under the Stock


                                      -13-
<PAGE>   17

Grant and the conditions under which the Employee's or Director's interest in
any Stock which has been issued will become non-forfeitable.

         9.2      Conditions.

                  (a)      Conditions to Issuance of Stock. The Committee acting
                           in its absolute discretion may make the issuance of
                           Stock under a Stock Grant subject to the satisfaction
                           of one, or more than one, condition which the
                           Committee deems appropriate under the circumstances
                           for Employees or Directors generally or for an
                           Employee or a Director in particular, and the related
                           Stock Grant Certificate shall set forth each such
                           condition and the deadline for satisfying each such
                           condition. Stock subject to a Stock Grant shall be
                           issued in the name of an Employee or Director only
                           after each such condition, if any, has been timely
                           satisfied, and any Stock which is so issued shall be
                           held by PracticeWorks pending the satisfaction of the
                           forfeiture conditions, if any, under ss.9.2(b) for
                           the related Stock Grant.

                  (b)      Forfeiture Conditions. The Committee acting in its
                           absolute discretion may make Stock issued in the name
                           of an Employee or Director subject to one, or more
                           than one, objective employment, performance or other
                           forfeiture condition that the Committee acting in its
                           absolute discretion


                                      -14-
<PAGE>   18

                           deems appropriate under the circumstances for
                           Employees or Directors generally or for an Employee
                           or a Director in particular, and the related Stock
                           Grant Certificate shall set forth each such
                           forfeiture condition, if any, and the deadline, if
                           any, for satisfying each such forfeiture condition.
                           An Employee's or a Director's non-forfeitable
                           interest in the shares of Stock underlying a Stock
                           Grant shall depend on the extent to which he or she
                           timely satisfies each such condition. Each share of
                           Stock underlying a Stock Grant shall be unavailable
                           under ss. 3 after such grant is effective unless such
                           share thereafter is forfeited as a result of a
                           failure to timely satisfy a forfeiture condition, in
                           which event such share of Stock shall again become
                           available under ss. 3 as of the date of such
                           forfeiture.

         9.3      Dividends and Voting Rights. If a cash dividend is paid on a
share of Stock after such Stock has been issued under a Stock Grant but before
the first date that an Employee's or a Director's interest in such Stock (1) is
forfeited completely or (2) becomes completely non-forfeitable, PracticeWorks
shall pay such cash dividend directly to such Employee or Director. If a Stock
dividend is paid on such a share of Stock during such period, such Stock
dividend shall be treated as part of the related Stock Grant, and an Employee's
or a Director's interest in such Stock dividend shall be forfeited or shall
become non-forfeitable at the same time as the Stock with respect to


                                      -15-
<PAGE>   19

which the Stock dividend was paid is forfeited or becomes non-forfeitable. The
disposition of each other form of dividend which is declared on such a share of
Stock during such period shall be made in accordance with such rules as the
Committee shall adopt with respect to each such dividend. An Employee or a
Director also shall have the right to vote the Stock issued under his or her
Stock Grant during such period.

         9.4      Satisfaction of Forfeiture Conditions. A share of Stock shall
cease to be subject to a Stock Grant at such time as an Employee's or a
Director's interest in such Stock becomes non-forfeitable under this Plan, and
the certificate representing such share shall be transferred to the Employee or
Director as soon as practicable thereafter.

                                    ss. 10.

                              NON-TRANSFERABILITY

         No Option, Stock Grant or Stock Appreciation Right shall (absent the
Committee's consent) be transferable by an Employee or a Director other than by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any Option or Stock
Appreciation Right shall (absent the Committee's consent) be exercisable during
an Employee's or Director's lifetime only by the Employee or Director. The
person or persons to whom an Option or Stock Grant or Stock Appreciation Right
is transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution (or with the
Committee's consent) thereafter shall be treated as the Employee or Director.

                                    ss. 11.

                             SECURITIES REGISTRATION

<PAGE>   20

         As a condition to the receipt of shares of Stock under this Plan, the
Employee or Director shall, if so requested by PracticeWorks, agree to hold such
shares of Stock for investment and not with a view of resale or distribution to
the public and, if so requested by PracticeWorks, shall deliver to PracticeWorks
a written statement satisfactory to PracticeWorks to that effect. Furthermore,
if so requested by PracticeWorks, the Employee or Director shall make a written
representation to PracticeWorks that he or she will not sell or offer for sale
any of such Stock unless a registration statement shall be in effect with
respect to such Stock under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities law
or he or she shall have furnished to PracticeWorks an opinion in form and
substance satisfactory to PracticeWorks of legal counsel satisfactory to
PracticeWorks that such registration is not required. Certificates representing
the Stock transferred upon the exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right
or upon the lapse of the forfeiture conditions, if any, on any Stock Grant may
at the discretion of PracticeWorks bear a legend to the effect that such Stock
has not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities
law and that such Stock cannot be sold or offered for sale in the absence of an
effective registration statement as to such Stock under the 1933 Act and any
applicable state securities law or an opinion in form and substance satisfactory
to PracticeWorks of legal counsel satisfactory to PracticeWorks that such
registration is not required.

                                  LIFE OF PLAN

         No Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be granted or Stock Grant

made under this Plan on or after the earlier of

                  (1)      the tenth anniversary of the effective date of this
                           Plan (as determined under ss. 4), in which event this
                           Plan otherwise thereafter shall continue in effect
                           until all outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation
                           Rights have been exercised in full or no longer are
                           exercisable and all Stock issued under any Stock
                           Grants under this Plan have been forfeited or have
                           become non-forfeitable, or

                  (2)      the date on which all of the Stock reserved under ss.
                           3 has (as a result of the exercise of Options or
                           Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan or
                           the satisfaction of the forfeiture conditions, if
                           any, on Stock Grants) been issued or no longer is
                           available for use under this Plan, in which event
                           this Plan also shall terminate on such date.

                                    ss. 13.

                                   ADJUSTMENT

         13.1     Capital Structure. The number, kind or class (or any
combination thereof) of shares of Stock reserved under ss. 3, the number, kind
or class (or any combination thereof) of shares of Stock subject to Options or
Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan and the Option Price of such
Options and the SAR Value of such Stock Appreciation Rights as well as the
number, kind or class (or any combination thereof) of shares of Stock subject to
Stock Grants granted under this Plan


                                      -18-
<PAGE>   22

shall be adjusted by the Committee in an equitable manner to reflect any change
in the capital structure of PracticeWorks, including, but not limited to, such
changes as stock dividends and stock splits, or any transaction involving
PracticeWorks which is not described in ss. 13.2.

         13.2     Corporate Transactions. The Committee as part of any corporate
transaction described in ss. 424(a) of the Code shall have the right to adjust
(in any manner which the Committee in its discretion deems consistent with ss.
424(a) of the Code) the number, kind or class (or any combination thereof) of
shares of Stock reserved under ss. 3. Furthermore, the Committee as part of any
corporate transaction described in ss. 424(a) of the Code shall have the right
to adjust (in any manner which the Committee in its discretion deems consistent
with ss. 424(a) of the Code) the number, kind or class (or any combination
thereof) of shares of Stock subject to any outstanding Stock Grants under this
Plan and any related grant conditions and forfeiture conditions, and the number,
kind or class (or any combination thereof) of shares subject to Option and Stock
Appreciation Right grants previously made under this Plan and the related Option
Price and SAR Value for each such Option and Stock Appreciation Right, and,
further, shall have the right (in any manner which the Committee in its
discretion deems consistent with ss. 424(a) of the Code) to make any Stock
Grants and Option and Stock Appreciation Right grants to effect the assumption
of, or the substitution for, stock grants and option and stock appreciation
right grants previously made by any other corporation to the extent that such
corporate transaction calls for such substitution or assumption of such stock
grants and stock option and stock appreciation right grants.

         13.3     Fractional Shares. If any adjustment under this ss. 13 would
create a fractional share of Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of
Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares of
Stock reserved under this Plan and the number subject to any Options or Stock
Appreciation Right grants and Stock Grants shall be the next lower number of
shares of Stock, rounding all fractions downward. An adjustment made under this
ss. 13 by the Committee shall be conclusive and binding on all affected persons.

                                    ss. 14.

                       SALE, MERGER OR CHANGE IN CONTROL

         If (1) PracticeWorks agrees on any date (whether or not such agreement
is subject to the approval of PracticeWorks' shareholders) to sell all or
substantially all of its assets or agrees to any merger, consolidation,
reorganization, division or other corporate transaction in which Stock is
converted into another security or into the right to receive securities or
property or if (2) a tender offer is made on any date which could lead to a
Change in Control (other than a tender offer by PracticeWorks or an employee
benefit plan established and maintained by PracticeWorks) and the Board does not
recommend to PracticeWorks' shareholders that the tender offer be rejected, or
if (3) there otherwise is a Change in Control of PracticeWorks on any date, then
any and all conditions to the exercise of all outstanding Options and Stock
Appreciation Rights on such date and any and all outstanding issuance and
forfeiture conditions on any Stock Grants on such date automatically shall be
deemed satisfied in full on such date, and the Board shall have the right (to
the extent expressly required as part of such


                                      -20-

transaction) to cancel such Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and Stock Grants
after providing each Employee and Director a reasonable period (which period
shall not be less than 30 days) to exercise his or her Options and Stock
Appreciation Rights and to take such other action as necessary or appropriate to
receive the Stock subject to any Stock Grants.

                                    ss. 15.

                            AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION

         This Plan may be amended by the Board from time to time to the extent
that the Board deems necessary or appropriate; provided, however, (1) no
amendment shall be made absent the approval of the shareholders of PracticeWorks
to the extent such approval is required under applicable law and (2) no
amendment shall be made to ss. 14 on or after any date described in ss. 14(1),
ss. 14(2) or ss. 14(3) which might adversely affect any rights which otherwise
vest on such date. The Board also may suspend granting Options or Stock
Appreciation Rights or making Stock Grants under this Plan at any time and may
terminate this Plan at any time; provided, however, the Board shall not have the
right unilaterally to modify, amend or cancel any Option or Stock Appreciation
Right granted or Stock Grant made before such suspension or termination unless
(x) the Employee or Director consents in writing to such modification, amendment
or cancellation or (y) there is a dissolution or liquidation of PracticeWorks or
a transaction described in ss. 13 or ss. 14.

                                    ss. 16.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         16.1     Shareholder Rights. No Employee or Director shall have any
rights as a shareholder of PracticeWorks as a result of the grant of an Option
or a Stock Appreciation Right pending the actual delivery of the Stock subject
to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right to such Employee or Director. Subject
to ss. 9.3, an Employee's or a Director's rights as a shareholder in the shares
of Stock underlying a Stock Grant which is effective shall be set forth in the
related Stock Grant Certificate.

         16.2     No Contract of Employment. The grant of an Option or a Stock
Appreciation Right or a Stock Grant to an Employee or Director under this Plan
shall not constitute a contract of employment or a right to continue to serve on
the Board and shall not confer on a Employee or Director any rights upon his or
her termination of employment or service in addition to those rights, if any,
expressly set forth in the related Option Certificate, Stock Appreciation Right
Certificate, or Stock Grant Certificate.

         16.3     Withholding. Each Option, Stock Appreciation Right and Stock
Grant shall be made subject to the condition that the Employee or Director
consents to whatever action the Committee directs to satisfy the federal tax,
state tax and any other applicable tax or withholding requirements, if any,
which the Committee in its discretion deems applicable to the exercise of such
Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the satisfaction of any forfeiture

to pay a cash bonus (or to provide in the terms of a Stock Option Certificate,
Stock Appreciation Right Certificate or Stock Grant Certificate for
PracticeWorks to make such payment) to an Employee or Director to pay all, or
any portion of, his or her federal, state and local income tax liability which
the Committee deems attributable to his or her exercise of an Option or Stock
