Primedex Health Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:PMDX) announced today that its
stockholders have approved the company's acquisition of Radiologix,
Inc. (AMEX:RGX), which is scheduled to close later today. Primedex
will acquire Radiologix in a cash and stock transaction valued at
the time of announcement on July 7, 2006, at approximately $208
million, including net debt. With 134 locations throughout the
United States, the combined company will be the largest owner and
operator of fixed-site diagnostic imaging centers in the United
States. After the acquisition, Primedex will have 83 centers in
California, 31 centers in Maryland, 12 centers in New York and 8
centers in other states, including Florida, Kansas, Colorado and
Minnesota. The acquisition of Radiologix, a national provider of
imaging services headquartered in Dallas, Texas, allows Primedex to
expand its presence in California, and gives Primedex a
concentrated platform outside of California that it plans to
optimize and grow. Primedex will use the acquisition to further its
strategies of geographic clustering, exclusive capitation
contracting and multi-modality product offerings, which it will now
be able to pursue on a national scale. Primedex's stockholders also
