Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
On December 19, 2007, OSI Systems, Inc., a California corporation (the Company), effected a short-form merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company with and into Spacelabs Healthcare, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Spacelabs), under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Prior to the merger, the Company owned approximately ninety and seven-tenths percent (90.7%) of the outstanding shares of the common stock, par value $.001 per share (Common Stock), of Spacelabs and the remaining approximately nine and three-tenths percent (9.3%) was held by various individuals and entities (the Minority Shareholders). Upon the consummation of the merger, Spacelabs became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and each share of Common Stock held by the Minority Shareholders immediately prior to the effective time of the merger was (except for stockholders who properly exercise dissenters rights under Delaware law) converted into the right to receive 100p or US$2.01 per share, without interest. The Common Stock, which prior to the merger traded under the ticker symbol SLAB on the AIM (formerly known as the Alternative Investment Market), a stock market administered by the London Stock Exchange, will be de-listed from AIM in connection with the merger.
Prior to the completion of the merger, all of the assets and liabilities of Spacelabs had been fully reflected in the Companys consolidated financials with an appropriate adjustment for the minority interest in Spacelabs.
On December 20, 2007, the Company also issued a press release regarding the merger. A copy of the press release is attached to this filing as Exhibit 99.1.
