[Q]: EXHIBIT 4                                 AFFILIATE AGREEMENT                               -------------------

Physician Sales & Service, Inc. 4345 Southpoint Boulevard Jacksonville, Florida  32216

Attention:  Patrick C. Kelly             David A. Smith

Gentlemen:

     The undersigned is a shareholder of Gulf South Medical Supply, Inc. (GSMS), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and will become a shareholder of Physician Sales & Service, Inc. (PSS), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Florida, pursuant to the transactions described in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 14, 1997 (the Agreement), by and among PSS, PSS Merger Corp. (Merger Corp.) and GSMS.  Under the terms of the Agreement, Merger Corp. will be merged into and with GSMS (the Merger), and the shares of the $.01 par value common stock of GSMS (GSMS Common Stock) will be converted into and exchanged for shares of the $.01 par value common stock of PSS (PSS Common Stock).  This Affiliate Agreement represents an agreement between the undersigned and PSS regarding certain rights and obligations of the undersigned in connection with the shares of PSS to be received by the undersigned as a result of the Merger.

     In consideration of the Merger and the mutual covenants contained herein, the undersigned and PSS hereby agree as follows:

     1.  Affiliate Status.  The undersigned understands and agrees that as to          ----------------                                                     GSMS he is an affiliate under Rule 145(c) as defined in Rule 405 of the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (1933 Act), and the undersigned anticipates that he will be such an affiliate at the time of the Merger.

     2.  Initial Restriction on Disposition.  The undersigned agrees that he          ----------------------------------                                  will not sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of his interests in, or reduce his risk relative to, any of the shares of PSS Common Stock into which his shares of GSMS Common Stock are converted upon consummation of the Merger until such time as PSS notifies the undersigned that the requirements of SEC Accounting Series Release Nos. 130 and 135 (ASR 130 and 135) have been met. The undersigned understands that ASR 130 and 135 relate to publication of financial results of post-Merger combined operations of PSS and GSMS. PSS agrees that it will publish such results as promptly as practicable following the Merger in the sole discretion of PSS, but in any event within 45 days after the end of the first fiscal quarter of PSS containing the required period of post-Merger combined operations and that it will notify the undersigned promptly following such publication.

     3.  Covenants and Warranties of Undersigned.  The undersigned represents,          ---------------------------------------                               warrants and agrees that:

     (a) The PSS Common Stock received by the undersigned as a result of the    Merger will be taken for his own account and not for others, directly or    indirectly, in whole or in part.

     (b) PSS has informed the undersigned that any distribution by the    undersigned of PSS Common Stock has not been registered under the 1933 Act    and that shares of PSS Common Stock received pursuant to the Merger can only    be sold by the undersigned (1) following registration under the 1933 Act, or    (2) in conformity with the volume and other requirements of Rule 145(d)    promulgated by the SEC as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended, or    (3) to the extent some other exemption from registration under the 1933 Act    might be available.  The undersigned understands that PSS is under no                         ------------------------------------------------    obligation to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the    ---------------------------------------------------------------------    disposition of the undersigned's shares of PSS Common    -----------------------------------------------------

     Stock or to take any other action necessary to make compliance with an    ----------------------------------------------------------------------    exemption from such registration available.    ------------------------------------------

     (c) During the 30 days immediately preceding the Effective Time of the    Merger, the undersigned has not sold, transfered, or otherwise disposed of    his interests in, or reduced his risk relative to, any of the shares of GSMS    Common Stock beneficially owned by the undersigned as of the record date for    determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the Shareholders' Meeting    of GSMS held to approve the Merger.

     (d) The undersigned is aware that PSS intends to treat the Merger as a tax-    free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code (Code)





   for federal income tax purposes.  The undersigned agrees to treat the    transaction in the same manner as PSS for federal income tax purposes.  The    undersigned acknowledges that Section 1.368-1(b) of the Income Tax    Regulations requires continuity of interest in order for the Merger to be    treated as tax-free under Section 368 of the Code. This requirement is    satisfied if, taking into account those GSMS shareholders who receive cash in    exchange for their stock, who receive cash in lieu of fractional shares, or    who dissent from the Merger, there is no plan or intention on the part of the    GSMS shareholders to sell or otherwise dispose of the PSS Common Stock to be    received in the Merger that will reduce such shareholders' ownership to a    number of shares having, in the aggregate, a value at the time of the Merger    of less than 50% of the total fair market value of the GSMS Common Stock    outstanding immediately prior to the Merger. The undersigned has no    prearrangement, plan or intention to sell or otherwise dispose of an amount    of his PSS Common Stock to be received in the Merger which would cause the    foregoing requirement not to be satisfied.

     4.  Restrictions on Transfer.  The undersigned understands and agrees that          ------------------------                                               stop transfer instructions with respect to the shares of PSS Common Stock received by the undersigned pursuant to the Merger will be given to PSS's transfer agent and that there will be placed on the certificates for such shares, or shares issued in substitution thereof, a legend stating in substance:

   The shares represented by this certificate were issued pursuant to a    business combination which is accounted for as a pooling of interests and    may not be sold, nor may the owner thereof reduce his risks relative thereto    in any way, until such time as PSS, Inc. (PSS) has published the financial    results covering at least 30 days of combined operations after the effective    date of the merger through which the business combination was effected.  In    addition, the shares represented by this certificate may not be sold,    transferred or otherwise disposed of except or unless (1) covered by an    effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as    amended, (2) in accordance with (i) Rule 145(d) (in the case of shares issued    to an individual who is not an affiliate of PSS) or (ii) Rule 144 (in the                            ---                                                  case of shares issued to an individual who is an affiliate of PSS) of the    Rules and Regulations of such Act, or (3) in accordance with a legal opinion    satisfactory to counsel for PSS that such sale or transfer is otherwise    exempt from the registration requirements of such Act.

Such legend will also be placed on any certificate representing PSS securities issued subsequent to the original issuance of the PSS Common Stock pursuant to the Merger as a result of any transfer of such shares or any stock dividend, stock split, or other recapitalization as long as the PSS Common Stock issued to the undersigned pursuant to the Merger has not been transferred in such manner to justify the removal of the legend therefrom.  Upon the request of the undersigned, PSS shall cause the certificates representing the shares of PSS Common Stock issued to the undersigned in connection with the Merger to be reissued free of any legend relating to restrictions on transfer by virtue of ASR 130 and 135 as soon as practicable after the requirements of ASR 130 and 135 have been met.  In addition, if the provisions of Rules 144 and 145 are amended to eliminate restrictions applicable to the PSS Common Stock received by the undersigned pursuant to the Merger, or at the expiration of the restrictive period set forth in Rule 145(d), PSS, upon the request of the undersigned, will cause the certificates representing the shares of PSS Common Stock issued to the undersigned in connection with the Merger to be reissued free of any legend relating to the restrictions set forth in Rules 144 and 145(d) upon receipt by PSS of an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such legend may be removed.

                                     - 2 -

       5.  Understanding of Restrictions on Dispositions.  The undersigned has          ---------------------------------------------                       carefully read the Agreement and this Affiliate Agreement and discussed their requirements and impact upon his ability to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of the shares of PSS Common Stock received by the undersigned, to the extent he believes necessary, with his counsel or counsel for GSMS.

     6.  Filing of Reports by PSS.  PSS agrees, for a period of three years          ------------------------                                           after the effective date of the Merger, to file on a timely basis all reports required to be filed by it pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, so that the public information provisions of Rule 145(d) promulgated by the SEC as the same are presently in effect will be available to the undersigned in the event the undersigned desires to transfer any shares of PSS Common Stock issued to the undersigned pursuant to the Merger.

     7.  Transfer Under Rule 145(d).  If the undersigned desires to sell or          --------------------------                                         otherwise transfer the shares of PSS Common Stock received by him in connection with the Merger at any time during the restrictive period set forth in Rule 145(d), the undersigned will provide the necessary representation letter to the transfer agent for PSS Common Stock together with such additional information as the transfer agent may reasonably request.  If PSS's counsel concludes that such proposed sale or transfer complies with the requirements of Rule 145(d), PSS shall cause such counsel to provide such opinions as may be necessary to PSS's Transfer Agent so that the undersigned may complete the proposed sale or transfer.

     8.  Acknowledgments.  The undersigned recognizes and agrees that the          ---------------                                                  foregoing provisions also apply to all shares of the capital stock of GSMS and PSS that are deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned pursuant to applicable federal securities laws, which the undersigned agrees may include,





without limitation, shares owned or held in the name of (i) the undersigned's spouse, (ii) any relative of the undersigned or of the undersigned's spouse who has the same home as the undersigned, (iii) any trust or estate in which the undersigned, the undersigned's spouse, and any such relative collectively own at least a 10% beneficial interest or of which any of the foregoing serves as trustee, executor, or in any similar capacity, and (iv) any corporation or other organization in which the undersigned, the undersigned's spouse and any such relative collectively own at least 10% of any class of equity securities or of the equity interest.  The undersigned further recognizes that, in the event that the undersigned is a director or officer of PSS or becomes a director or officer of PSS upon consummation of the Merger, among other things, any sale of PSS Common Stock by the undersigned within a period of less than six months following the effective time of the Merger may subject the undersigned to liability pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

     9.  Miscellaneous.  This Affiliate Agreement is the complete agreement          -------------                                                      between PSS and the undersigned concerning the subject matter hereof.  Any notice required to be sent to any party hereunder shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, using the addresses set forth herein or such other address as shall be furnished in writing by the parties.

In the event the      Internal Revenue Service or any other  governmental  agency should question      or challenge the Business  Affiliate=s  independent  contractor status, the      Parties  hereby agree that both  Business  Affiliate and UDC shall have the      right to participate in any discussions or negotiations

(a) FMI and Roche or its relevant Affiliates shall fully co-operate with each other with the objective to convince the challenging authority that such remunerations for products and services and other payments are appropriate, including providing each other with copies of third party agreements if necessary to utilize as comparables to support the arm's length nature of transactions between FMI and Roche. In the event that the challenging authority is not convinced, the Parties shall request that the tax authorities in the US and in Roche's Jurisdiction initiate government-to-government procedures pursuant to the applicable bi- lateral convention for the avoidance of double taxation or similar treaty or convention (if any) between the US and Roche's Jurisdiction (Competent Authority Procedures).



(b) In the event that the US tax authorities determine that such remunerations for products and services or other payments are not appropriate and levy an assessment on FMI, and such assessment results in a refund (or similar payment or credit) by or from the tax authorities in Roche's Jurisdiction to Roche or its relevant Affiliate, then Roche shall pay (or shall ensure that Roche shall pay) the amount of such refund to FMI. In the event that the tax authorities in Roche's Jurisdiction determine that such remunerations for products and services or other payments are not appropriate and levy an assessment on Roche, and such assessment results in a refund (or similar payment or credit) by or from the US tax authorities to FMI then FMI shall pay (or shall ensure that FMI shall pay) the amount of such refund to Roche. Each Party shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain such refund (or similar payment or credit).

  (c) In the event of such an assessment by either tax authority (an Assessment), the Parties agree to making adjustments to the relevant remunerations for products and services or other payments to levels agreed to by the tax authorities in both the US and Roche's Jurisdiction as the result of Competent Authority Procedures.

Such books of accounts shall be kept at their principal place of business. At the expense of the auditing Party, the auditing Party shall have the right to engage an internationally recognized, independent public accountant reasonably accept able to the other Party to perform, on behalf of such Party an audit of such books and records of the audited Party and its Affiliates, its licensees and Sublicensees, that are deemed necessary for the period or periods requested by the auditing Party and the correctness of any financial report or payments made under this Agreement, including with respect to benefits and terms complying with the most favored   - 40 -

  11.3 Over or Underpayment

If the audit reveals an overpayment by Roche, FMI shall reimburse Roche for the amount of the overpayment within […***…].

The audited Party shall pay for the audit costs if the underpayment of the audited Party exceeds […***…] of the aggregate amount of royalty payments owed with regard to the period subject of the audit. Section 9.2 shall apply to this Section 11.3.

  11.4 Duration of Audit Rights

The failure of a Party to request verification of any calculation within the period during which corresponding records must be maintained under this Article 11 will be deemed to be acceptance of the payments and reports.

- 44 -





For any FMI Background Patent Right or sole FMI Patent Right, FMI in its sole discretion shall decide whether or not to initiate such suit or action in the Territory. FMI shall have full discretion as to how it wishes to handle such suit and may reach Settlement under any terms and conditions it desires and retain all damages, settlement fees or other consideration received in connection therewith.

Only if a Settlement could adversely affect FMI shall the written consent of FMI be required, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

If for a Joint Patent Right, Roche decides to bring a suit or take action, once Roche provides Suit Notice, Roche may immediately commence such suit or take such action. In the event that Roche (i) does not in writing advise FMI within the Decision Period that Roche will commence suit or take action, or (ii) fails to commence suit or take action within a reasonable time after providing Suit Notice, FMI shall thereafter have the right to commence suit or take action in the Territory and shall provide written notice Roche of any such suit commenced or action taken by FMI.

(a) First, to reimburse the Initiating Party for its costs and, if any remains, to the other Party for any advisory counsel fees and costs; and

(b) Second, the balance, if any, shall be allocated […***…].

If the Initiating Party believes it is reasonably necessary or desirable to obtain an effective remedy, upon written request the other Party agrees to be joined as a party to the suit or action but shall be under no obligation to participate except to the extent that such participation is required as the result of its being a named party to the suit or action. At the Initiating Party's written request, the other Party shall offer reasonable assistance to the Initiating Party in connection therewith at no charge to the Initiating Party except for reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the other Party in rendering such assistance. The other Party shall have the right to participate and be represented in any such suit or action by its own counsel at its own expense.

The Initiating Party may settle, consent judgment or otherwise voluntarily dispose of the suit or action (Settlement) without the written consent of the other Party but only if such Settlement can be achieved without adversely affecting the other Party (including any of its Patent Rights). If a Settlement could adversely affect the other Party, then the written consent of the other Party would be required, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.   ***Confidential Treatment Requested***

- 45 -





12.8 Defense

If an action for infringement is commenced against either Party, its licensees or its sublicensees related to such Party's conduct of a Work Stream within the scope of an R&D Plan then such Party shall defend such action at its own expense, and the other Party shall assist and cooperate with such Party, at its own expense, to the extent necessary in the defense of such suit. The defending Party shall have the right to settle the suit or consent to an adverse judgment thereto, in its sole discretion, so long as such settlement or adverse judgment does not adversely affect the rights of the other Party and its Affiliates (including any patent rights Controlled by any of them). The defending Party shall assume full responsibility for the payment of any award for damages, or any amount due pursuant to any settlement entered into by it with such Third Party.

If the manufacture, use, importation, offer for sale or sale of any Products and Services results in any claim, suit or proceeding alleging patent infringement or trade secret misappropriation against FMI or a member of the Roche Group, then such Party shall promptly notify the other Party hereto. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding and shall keep each other reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding.

If a Third Party asserts that Patent Rights owned by or licensed to it are infringed by the development, manufacture, use, importation, offer for sale or sale of products arising out of this Agreement by a member of the Roche Group, or that its trade secrets were misappropriated in connection with such activity, then Roche shall have the exclusive right and responsibility to resolve any such claim, whether by obtaining a license from such Third Party, by defending against such Third Party's claims or otherwise, and shall be solely responsible for the defense of any such action, any and all costs incurred in connection with such action (including, without limitation, attorneys' and expert fees) and all liabilities incurred in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the above, Roche shall not enter into any settlement of any such claim without the prior written consent of FMI if such settlement would require FMI to be subject to an injunction or to make any monetary payment to Roche or any Third Party, or admit any wrongful conduct by FMI or its Affiliates, or would limit or restrict the claims of or admit any invalidity and/or unenforceability of any of the Patent Rights Controlled by FMI, or have any impact on activities outside the Field.

  12.9 Common Interest Disclosures

With regard to any information or opinions disclosed pursuant to this Agreement by one Party to each other regarding intellectual property and/or technology owned by Third Parties, the Parties agree that they have a common legal interest in determining whether, and to what extent, Third Party intellectual property rights may affect the conduct of the Work Streams and/or Products and Services, and have a further common legal interest in defending against any actual or prospective Third Party claims based on allegations of misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights relating to the conduct of the Work Streams and/or Products and Services. Accordingly, the Parties agree that all such information and materials obtained by FMI and Roche from each other will be used solely for purposes of the Parties' common legal interests with respect to the conduct of the Agreement. All information and materials will be treated as protected by the attorney-client privilege, the work product privilege, and any other privilege or   - 46 -





immunity that may otherwise be applicable. By sharing any such information and materials, neither Party intends to waive or limit any privilege or immunity that may apply to the shared information and materials. Neither Party shall have the authority to waive any privilege or immunity on behalf of the other Party without such other Party's prior written consent, nor shall the waiver of privilege or immunity resulting from the conduct of one Party be deemed to apply against any other Party.

16.5 Commercial Considerations

Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent a Party or its Affiliates from disclosing Confidential Information of the other Party to (i) governmental agencies to the extent required or desirable to secure government approval for the development, manufacture or sale of a product in the Territory and (ii) Third Parties acting on behalf of a Party, to the extent reasonably necessary to conduct the activities contemplated by this Agreement provided that such Third Parties are bound by confidentiality obligations with respect to such information that are no less stringent than those included in this Agreement.

  17. Term and Termination

17.1 Commencement and Term

This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and continue for the Agreement Term.

  17.2 Termination

  17.2.1 Termination for Breach

A Party (Non-Breaching Party) shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on a Work Stream-by-Work Stream basis, or, for Roche, on an Approved Marker or Investigational Marker basis in the case of the CDx Development Program, in the event the other Party (Breaching Party) is in material breach of any of its material obligations under the applicable Work Stream (or obligations pertaining to an Approved Marker or Investigational Marker program). Failure of FMI to comply materially with Performance Specifications or Quality Standards shall be considered a material breach by FMI. For avoidance of doubt, a Non-Breaching Party shall only be permitted to terminate the Work Stream (or Approved Marker or Investigational Marker program) to which a material breach of a material obligation relates. The Non-Breaching Party shall provide written notice to the Breaching Party, which notice shall identify the breach. Except in the event of a breach that, by its nature, is not amenable to cure, in which case termination may be made effective immediately, the Breaching Party shall have a period of […***…] after such written notice is provided (Peremptory Notice Period) to cure such breach or, absent withdrawal of the Non-Breaching Party's request for termination, the relevant Work Stream (or Approved Marker or Investigational Marker program) shall terminate; provided that, if the Breaching Party has a bona fide dispute as to whether such breach: (i) occurred, (ii) pertains to a material obligation, or (iii) has been cured, the Breaching Party will so notify the Non-Breaching Party, the relevant Work Stream (or Approved Marker or Investigational Marker program) shall not terminate and the expiration of the Peremptory Notice Period shall be tolled until such dispute is resolved pursuant to Section 19.2. If such dispute is resolved by finding that the Non-Breaching Party is entitled to terminate the relevant Work Stream (or Approved Marker or Investigational Marker program), the Breaching Party may have the remainder of the Peremptory Notice Period to cure such breach. If such breach is not cured within the Peremptory Notice Period, then absent withdrawal of the Non-Breaching Party's request for termination, the relevant Work Stream (or Approved Marker or Investigational Marker program) shall terminate in accordance with the notice from the Non-Breaching Party as of the expiration of the Peremptory Notice Period.

    17.2.2 Insolvency

A Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, if the other Party incurs an Insolvency Event; provided, however, in the case of any involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, such right to   ***Confidential Treatment Requested***

    17.2.3 Termination by Roche without Cause

Roche shall have the right to terminate the Agreement in its entirety, or on a Work Stream-by-Work Stream basis, except for the ctDNA Work Stream, upon […***…] prior written notice, without cause. With regard to the CDx Development Program, Roche shall also have the right to terminate, without cause, the development of an Approved Marker and/or an Investigational Marker for inclusion in a CDx Assay, upon […***…] prior written notice; provided however that this right shall expire with respect to each Approved Marker for inclusion in a particular CDx Assay at such time as FMI has completed analytical validation for such Approved Marker. With regard to the Molecular Information Platform Program, Roche shall have the right to terminate without cause either or both of the Sample Profiling or Molecular Information Database Access activities individually.

    17.2.4 Termination by Roche for Frustration of Purpose

Roche shall have the right to terminate the ctDNA Platform Development Program upon […***…] prior written notice for frustration of purpose in the event that the Clinical Study for which the ctDNA Assay is being developed is canceled.
