Forward-Looking Statements This presentation includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding AmSurg s proposed business combination transaction with TeamHealth (including financing of the proposed transaction and the benefits, results, effects and timing of a transaction), all statements regarding AmSurg s (and AmSurg s and TeamHealth s combined) expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows, financing plans, business strategy, budgets, capital expenditures, competitive positions, growth opportunities, plans and objectives of management, and statements containing the words such as anticipate, approximate, believe, plan, estimate, expect, project, could, would, should, will, intend, may, potential, and other similar expressions. Statements in this presentation concerning the business outlook or future economic performance, anticipated profitability, revenues, expenses or other financial items, and service line growth of AmSurg (and the combined businesses of AmSurg and TeamHealth), together with other statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that are estimates reflecting the best judgment of AmSurg based upon currently available information. Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and shareholders and other potential investors must recognize that actual results may differ materially from AmSurg s expectations as a result of a variety of factors, including, without limitation, those discussed below. Such forward-looking statements are based upon management s current expectations and include known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which AmSurg is unable to predict or control, that may cause AmSurg s actual results, performance or plans with respect to TeamHealth, to differ materially from any future results, performance or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed below and detailed from time to time in AmSurg s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC ). Risks and uncertainties related to the proposed transaction with TeamHealth include, but are not limited to, uncertainty as to whether AmSurg will further pursue, enter into or consummate the transaction on the terms set forth in the proposal or on other terms, potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the transaction, uncertainties as to the timing of the transaction, adverse effects on AmSurg s stock price resulting from the announcement or consummation of the transaction or any failure to complete the transaction, competitive responses to the announcement or consummation of the transaction, the risk that regulatory, licensure or other approvals and financing required for the consummation of the transaction are not obtained or are obtained subject to terms and conditions that are not anticipated, costs and difficulties related to the integration of TeamHealth s businesses and operations with AmSurg s businesses and operations, the inability to obtain, or delays in obtaining, cost savings and synergies from the transaction, unexpected costs, liabilities, charges or expenses resulting from the transaction, litigation relating to the transaction, the inability to retain key personnel, and any changes in general economic and/or industry specific conditions. In addition to the factors set forth above, other factors that may affect AmSurg s plans, results or stock price are set forth in AmSurg s Annual Report on Form 10-K and its reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Consequently, actual results, performance or developments may differ materially from the forward-looking statements included above. AmSurg disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements. Additional Information This presentation is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to purchase or the solicitation of an offer to sell any securities. Subject to future developments, AmSurg may file a registration statement and/or tender offer documents with the SEC in connection with a possible business combination transaction with TeamHealth. AmSurg and TeamHealth shareholders should read those filings, and any other filings made by AmSurg with the SEC in connection with a possible business combination, if any, as they will contain important information. Those documents, if and when filed, as well as AmSurg s other public filings with the SEC, may be obtained without charge at the SEC s website at www.sec.gov and at AmSurg s website at www.amsurg.com.

Next Steps No expected financing contingency; JPM/Guggenheim highly confident in AmSurg ability to finance merger Proposal based on public information/internal estimates Would conduct prompt due diligence to reach agreed upon transaction Shareholder votes required for both companies Do not anticipate significant regulatory hurdles Look forward to engaging promptly with TeamHealth s Board to reach an agreement TeamHealth Shareholders Must Urge Their Board of Directors to Engage with AmSurg to Consummate Significant Value Creating Transaction 14

Financial Information We have included certain financial measures in this presentation, including Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS, which are non-gaap financial measures as defined under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, net, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation, transaction costs, changes in contingent purchase price consideration, gain or loss on deconsolidations and discontinued operations. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented herein, is considered a supplemental measure of our performance and is not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ( GAAP ). Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EPS as net earnings per share, excluding discontinued operations, gains or loss from deconsolidations, which are non-cash in nature, transaction costs, including associated debt extinguishment costs and deferred financing write-off, and acquisition-related amortization expense (the majority of which relate to the Sheridan transaction and which are of a nature and significance not generally associated with our historical individual center acquisition activity), changes in contingent purchase price consideration and share-based compensation expense. Our measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. We have included information concerning Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS in this presentation because we believe that such information is used by certain investors as measures of a company s historical performance. We believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of issuers of equity securities, many of which present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EPS and Adjusted EPS when reporting their results. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.
