The Court finds Mr. Hearing’s hourly rate of $325.00 to be reasonable and finds 5.6

Hearing’s attorney’s fees. The Court finds Ms. Dyson’s hourly rate of $265.00 to be
reasonable and finds 6 hours of Ms. Dyson’s time to be reasonable, therefore approving
$1,590.00 of Ms. Dyson’s attorney’s fees. Additionally, the Court finds $113.50 in costs for
copies to be reasonable expenses.

It is therefore ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the Clerk is directed to enter a
JUDGMENT FOR ATTORNEY’S FEES AND COSTS in favor of Plaintiffs,
Comprehensive Health Management, Inc., Wellcare of Florida, Inc., and Healthcare of
Florida, Inc., and against Defendants, Jason Halstead and Universal Health Care, Inc., in the
