$4,403,000. Net income for the first quarter of 2013 of $25,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, included a one-time charge related

increased 20.8% for the first quarter of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012. Revenue increased more slowly than procedure
volume primarily due to the mix of procedures by location.</P>

the first quarter of 2013 increased to $1,235,000 compared to $1,024,000 for the first quarter of 2012. This increase included
expenses of approximately $40,000 incurred in connection with the Company's efforts to rescind or modify the reduction in Medicare
reimbursement for Gamma Knife services imposed under Provision 634 of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. In addition, the
Company entered into an agreement to sublease a portion of its office space at a rental rate less than the Company pays for the
space, resulting in a one-time, pre-tax charge of $115,000.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&quot;We also are taking appropriate steps
to offset the impact of Provision 634 through aggressive cost reductions. We expect the program we announced last month to reduce
AMS' future cash outlays by approximately $1,000,000 annually once all steps are fully implemented over the next few months. In
addition to salary cuts for our senior executives, the estimated $1,000,000 in annual cash savings include reduced fees we have
negotiated with our vendors, the subleasing of a portion of our office space, and the refinancing of certain of our existing equipment
loans and leases. We expect to realize a small portion of these savings in the second quarter, mostly from reduced rent. The major
impact of the cost reduction program will begin in the third quarter.</P>

MD Anderson Orlando's dedicated proton center is under construction. We continue to expect this facility to begin treating patients
next year. AMS has a firm financing commitment for the MEVION S250 Proton Therapy System we will supply for this $25 million facility.
FDA approval of the Mevion device was received last year. The MD Anderson Cancer Center Orlando will be the model for additional
proton centers we are developing.&quot;</P>
