The Razin Group Files Revised Preliminary Proxy Statement in Connection with NextGen Healthcare's 2021 Annual Meeting


Sheldon Razin, who collectively with Lance Rosenzweig and the other participants in his solicitation owns approximately 15.2% of the outstanding common shares of NextGen Healthcare, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXGN) ("NextGen Healthcare" or the "Company"), today filed a revised preliminary proxy statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") scheduled for October 13, 2021. The revised materials reflect the following:

Messrs. Razin and Rosenzweig commented:

"By reducing the size of our slate and stating our intent to not invoke cumulative voting at NextGen Healthcare's Annual Meeting, we have made it clear that our campaign is simply about ridding the Company's boardroom of four misaligned and self-interested directors ? not obtaining control. The reality is that Chairman Jeffrey Margolis and the three directors we are seeking to remove are the individuals focused on maintaining control at all costs. They are the ones initiating brazen entrenchment maneuvers and manipulations of the corporate machinery, including a proposed reincorporation in Delaware that strengthens the Board's power and weakens shareholders' rights.

We hope our actions allow shareholders to disregard the Entrenched Four's shameless fearmongering and start focusing on the key issue in this contest: NextGen Healthcare's prolonged stagnation and underperformance during the six-year chairmanship of Mr. Margolis. The Company, which currently has no Chief Executive Officer, has been on a downward trajectory as a result of anemic revenue growth, deteriorating margins, an eroding balance sheet, insular governance, high customer attrition, and very questionable capital allocation. Meanwhile, director compensation has soared and executive incentives are no longer tied to the right performance-based metrics. While we are optimistic about our plan to turn around the Company's poor performance, it is abundantly clear to us that NextGen Healthcare needs an immediate rebalancing of power in the boardroom.

Although we are running a minority slate, we want shareholders to know that all four of our director candidates have actionable ideas and plans to help create enhanced value for shareholders, providers and patients. We look forward to sharing our four-member slate's detailed analysis and perspectives in the weeks to come."
