PMR has adopted an informal policy to pay a fee of $500 to each non-employee director who attends a regularly scheduled or special meeting of the Board and to pay expenses for attendance at any such meeting. For the fiscal year ended April 2000, Messrs. Hill, McGettigan, and Niglio each received such payments in an aggregate amount of $2,500, and Mr. Frank received payment in an amount of $500, and PMR paid their expenses in connection with attendance at meetings. 8. 11 OUTSIDE DIRECTORS' NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN OF 1992 Each non-employee director of PMR receives stock option grants under the Outside Directors' Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan of 1992 (the "Outside Directors' Plan"). Only non-employee directors of PMR are eligible to receive options under the Outside Directors' Plan. Options granted under the Outside Directors' Plan are intended by PMR not to qualify as incentive stock options under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Option grants under the Outside Directors' Plan are non-discretionary. As of the date of the regular meeting of the Board of Directors closest to August 3rd of each year, each member of PMR's Board who is not an employee of PMR is automatically granted under the Outside Directors' Plan, without further action by PMR, the Board or the stockholders of PMR, an option to purchase 15,000 shares of Common Stock of PMR. The Board may also grant options at any other time under the Outside Directors' Plan. The exercise price of options granted under the Outside Directors' Plan must be at least 100% of the fair market value of the PMR Common Stock subject to the option on the date of the option grant. Options granted under the Outside Directors' Plan are immediately exercisable as to 30% of the option shares and the remaining 70% of the option shares become exercisable in equal installments on each of the first, second and third anniversary of the option grant date in accordance with the terms of the Outside Directors' Plan. In the event of certain mergers of PMR with or into another corporation or certain other consolidation, acquisition of assets or other change-in-control transactions involving PMR, the vesting period of each option will accelerate. On August 23, 2000, the Board granted options covering 15,000 shares of Common Stock of PMR to each of Messrs. McGettigan, Niglio, Frank and Hill, at the exercise price per share of $2.4375 (the fair market value based on the closing sales price reported on the Nasdaq National Market on that date). 1997 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN Option grants under the 1997 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") are discretionary by the Board of Directors. The exercise price of options granted under the Incentive Plan must be at least 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the option on the grant date for incentive stock options and at least 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the option on the grant date for nonstatutory stock options and restricted stock purchases. Options granted under the Incentive Plan are exercisable as determined by the Board. Options granted to an employee who is a director of the Company become immediately exercisable upon certain change in control transactions. Options granted to an employee who is not a director become immediately exercisable following certain change in control transactions if, within one year of the change in control of the Company, (i) the optionee's employment is terminated other than for cause or (ii) the optionee's employment is constructively terminated. During the last fiscal year, the Company granted stock options to Named Executive Officers (as defined below) and employee-directors of the Company. See " -- Stock Option Grants and Exercises" and "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions -- Grant of Options to Certain Directors and Executive Officers" for a description of the terms of such stock options. COMPENSATION PURSUANT TO PLANS The Company maintains a tax-deferred retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Code for the benefit of all employees meeting minimum eligibility requirements (the "401(k) Plan"). Under the 401(k) Plan, each employee may defer up to fifteen percent (15%) of pre-tax earnings, subject to certain limitations. The Company will match fifty percent (50%) of an employee's deferral to a maximum of three percent (3%) of an employee's gross salary. PMR's matching contribution vests over a five (5) year period. For the years ended April 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Company contributed $236,000, $272,000 and $265,000, respectively, to match employee deferrals. Of these amounts, $23,987, $10,068 and $20,482, respectively, were contributed to match deferrals of the Named Executive Officers (as defined below) of PMR. 9. 12 SUMMARY OF COMPENSATION The following table shows for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, compensation awarded or paid to, or earned by, PMR's Chief Executive Officer and its other four most highly compensated executive officers at April 30, 2000 (the "Named Executive Officers"): SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE

On August 30, 2000 and each year thereafter, the term of the Employment Agreements will automatically be extended by one year unless notice has been otherwise provided. The Employment Agreements provide for an annual salary, subject to such increases as the Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time determine, and permit the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, to provide a bonus to such Named Executive Officers. The Employment Agreements provide that during the term of such Named Executive Officer's employment thereunder and for a period of one year immediately following termination of such employment, such Named Executive Officer will not solicit or attempt to solicit any employee, consultant or independent contractor of the Company to terminate his or her relationship with the Company. The Employment Agreements provide that if such Named Executive Officer's employment is terminated (i) by the Company without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), (ii) by such Named Executive Officer for Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or (iii) by the Company's notification of non-renewal prior to the date of automatic renewal, such Named Executive Officer is entitled to additional compensation upon termination in the form of a lump sum payment and, if eligible, periodic payments for a specified period of time or until such Named Executive Officer begins employment with another company or business. REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION(1) The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") is responsible for developing and making recommendations to the Board with respect to PMR's executive compensation policies. The Committee consists of outside directors Messrs. Niglio and Hill. EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION PROGRAM PMR's executive compensation program is based on the following four objectives: (i) to link the interests of management with those of stockholders by encouraging stock ownership in PMR; (ii) to attract and retain superior ---------- (1) The material in this report is not "soliciting material," is not deemed "filed" with the SEC, and is not to be incorporated by reference into any filing of PMR under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language contained in such filing. 12. 15 executives by providing them with the opportunity to earn total compensation packages that are competitive with the industry; (iii) to reward individual results by recognizing performance through salary, annual cash incentives and long-term stock based incentives; and (iv) to manage compensation based on the level of skill, knowledge, effort and responsibility needed to perform the job successfully. The components of PMR's compensation program for its executive officers include (i) base salary, (ii) performance-based cash bonuses, (iii) incentive compensation in the form of stock options, and (iv) participation in PMR's 401(k) Plan. An explanation of the 401(k) Plan appears at "Executive Compensation -- Compensation Pursuant to Plans." BASE SALARY. Base salary levels for the PMR's executive officers are determined, in part, through comparisons with companies in the outpatient service industry, other companies with which PMR competes for personnel, and general geographic market conditions. Additionally, the Committee evaluates individual experience and performance and the overall performance of PMR. The Committee reviews each executive's salary on an annual basis and may increase each executive's salary based on (i) the individual's increased contribution to PMR over the preceding year; (ii) the individual's increased responsibilities over the preceding year; and (iii) any increase in median competitive pay levels. ANNUAL CASH BONUSES. The Committee recommends the payment of bonuses from time-to-time to PMR's employees, including its executive officers, to provide an incentive to these persons to be productive over the course of each fiscal year. These bonuses are awarded only if PMR achieves or exceeds certain corporate performance objectives relating to net income and/or cash flow. Accrued monthly, depending on the earnings of PMR, is a cash bonus pool to be paid out after fiscal year end. The size of the cash bonus to each executive officer is based on the individual executive's performance during the preceding year. STOCK OPTIONS. PMR believes that a key component to the compensation of its executive officers should be through stock options. Stock options utilized by PMR for this purpose have been designed to provide an incentive to these employees by allowing them to directly participate in any increase in the long-term value of PMR. This incentive is intended to reward, motivate and retain the services of executive employees. PMR has historically rewarded its executive employees through the grant of Incentive Stock Options and Nonstatutory Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options are allocated to both executive and non-executive employees on an annual basis by either the Committee or the Board. PMR's 1997 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") provides for the grant of up to an aggregate 3,000,000 Options, of which 2,235,156 had been granted as of April 30, 2000. Incentive Stock Options are granted with exercise prices equal to the prevailing market value of PMR's common stock on the date of grant, have 10-year terms and are subject to vesting periods established from time to time by the Committee. Incentive Stock Options granted to holders of 10% or more of PMR's stock are granted with exercise prices equal to 110% of the prevailing market value of PMR's common stock on the date of grant and have terms of 5 years. PMR has also granted Nonstatutory Stock Options on occasion, generally, in circumstances where the grant of the option may not satisfy certain of the technical criteria for an Incentive Stock Option. Through April 30, 2000, PMR had granted 475,000 Nonstatutory Stock Options to executive personnel under the Incentive Plan. See "Executive Compensation -- 1997 Equity Incentive Plan." The Committee employs no particular set of mechanical criteria in awarding stock options. Rather, it evaluates a series of factors including: (i) the overall performance of PMR for the fiscal year in question; (ii) the performance of the individual in question; (iii) the anticipated contribution by the individual to PMR on an overall basis; (iv) the historical level of compensation of the individual; (v) the level of compensation of similarly situated executives in PMR's industry; and (vi) that level of combination of cash compensation and stock options that would be required from a competitive point of view to retain the services of a valued executive officer. 13. 16 CEO COMPENSATION Mr. Clein's base salary has been and will continue to be adjusted from time-to-time in accordance with the criteria for the determination of executive officer compensation as described above in the section captioned "Base Salary." In setting the compensation for Mr. Clein for fiscal year 2000, PMR sought to retain a key executive officer while continuing to tie a significant percentage of his compensation to company performance. By the Compensation Committee Richard A. Niglio Eugene D. Hill, III 14. 17 COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION PMR's Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Niglio and Hill, each of whom is a non-employee director. There were no compensation committee interlock relationships during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000. All directors of PMR, including Messrs. Niglio and Hill, have options to purchase shares of PMR's Common Stock. See "Executive Compensation -- Outside Directors' Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan of 1992" and "Executive Compensation -- 1997 Equity Incentive Plan." CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS GRANT OF OPTIONS TO CERTAIN DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS Directors and members of management of PMR have been granted options to purchase PMR Common Stock. See "Executive Compensation -- Outside Directors' Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan of 1992," "Executive Compensation -- 1997 Equity Incentive Plan" and "Executive Compensation -- Stock Option Grants and Exercises." On August 25, 1999, the Board granted Mr. Clein a stock option to purchase 150,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.1875 per share (the closing price of PMR's common stock on the date of the grant) in connection with his employment as Chief Executive Officer. The shares under the option become exercisable upon the earlier of the achievement of certain performance-based vesting criteria or seven years. On November 24, 1999, the Board granted Messrs. Clein and Furman non-statutory stock options to purchase 275,000 and 200,000 shares, respectively, of PMR Common Stock under the Incentive Plan, at an exercise price per share of $1.70. In addition, on November 24, 1999, the Board granted Ms. Erskine an incentive stock option to purchase 40,000 shares of PMR Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share (the closing price of PMR's common stock on the date of grant) under the Incentive Plan. INDEBTEDNESS OF CERTAIN EXECUTIVE OFFICERS In January 2000, the Company loaned Messrs. Clein and Furman $467,500 and$684,750, respectively, pursuant to promissory notes for the purchase of stock from the exercise of stock options (the "Stock Notes"). The Stock Notes, due December 31, 2004, bear interest at the rate of 6.21% per annum and are with recourse in addition to being secured by stock under respective pledge agreements. The Company also received promissory notes from Messrs. Clein and Furman for up to $257,208 and $193,311, respectively, for tax liabilities related to the purchase of such stock (the "Tax Notes"). The Tax Notes, due December 31, 2004, bear interest at the rate of 6.21% and are secured by respective stock pledges, but are otherwise without recourse. As of August 14, 2000, Messrs. Clein and Furman owed $55,000 and $237,000, respectively, under the Stock Notes and $198,159 and $148,442, respectively, under the Tax Notes. 15. 18 PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT COMPARISON(1) The following graph and table show the total stockholder return of an investment of $100 in cash on April 30, 1995 for PMR's Common Stock, the Nasdaq Stock Market (U.S.) Index and the Nasdaq Health Services Index.
