On February 15, 2010, the Company concluded the Court-approved process whereby it marketed the sale of substantially all of its assets. The Company generated significant interest during the process, however none of the offers submitted by the bid deadline satisfied the requirements of the Court-approved procedures. The Company believes that the conclusion of the Court-approved sales process has also achieved one of the Company's goals of identifying the market's valuation range for the business, which was necessary in order to obtain confirmation of the Plan. The Company intends to pursue confirmation of the Plan on terms substantially similar to those previously presented to creditors for their approval, whereby the Company's First Lien Lenders will exchange their claims for new equity and new debt.

John Miclot, Chief Executive Officer of CCS Medical, said, "Based on the results of the sales and marketing process, we believe that the Plan represents the greatest value for our Company and our creditors. Reaching a determination as to the value of the Company provides increased certainty for our path forward."
The Company continues to make post-petition payments to suppliers in the ordinary course, and expects no changes in the goods and services it continues to provide to its customers and patients. The Company also anticipates that, pursuant to the proposed terms of the Plan, the majority of the Company's suppliers will remain unaffected by the Chapter 11 process.
Mr. Miclot added, "We continue to experience high demand for our products and services, and we remain focused on serving our customers. We look forward to the Court's approval of the Plan and a timely emergence from our reorganization process, so that we can continue to pursue our strategic objectives. I would like to thank our talented employees for their hard work and dedication throughout this process."
