This Amendment No. 6 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “Schedule TO”) amends and supplements the Schedule TO relating to the tender offer by Mountain Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Mountain Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), for all of the outstanding common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of Health Grades, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Health Grades”), at a price of $8.20 per share net to the seller in cash without interest and less any required withholding taxes, if any, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the offer to purchase dated August 10, 2010 (the “Offer to Purchase”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), and in the related letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(B), which, together with any amendments or supplements, collectively constitute the “Offer.”

Items 1 through 9 and 11

Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, which incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby revised as follows:

(1) The response to the question ‘Do you have the financial resources to pay for all of the Shares that you are offering to purchase in the Offer?’ on page 2 of the Summary Term Sheet in the Offer to Purchase and the second paragraph in Section 9—‘’ Source and Amount of Funds’’ on page 23 of the Offer to Purchase, is amended and restated to read as follows:

All Shares tendered into the Offer and accepted by Purchaser will be paid for promptly. Parent and Purchaser estimate that the total amount of funds required (i) to purchase all outstanding Shares pursuant to the Offer and the Merger and (ii) to pay for the cash-out of all derivative securities, including warrants, options, convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights to acquire Shares, of Health Grades required to be cashed out by the Merger Agreement, will be approximately $294 million.

Vestar has contractual arrangements with its limited partners pursuant to which its limited partners are committed to investing a specified amount of equity capital and transferring such capital to Vestar and its affiliates within 10 business days of receiving a capital call notice from Vestar or its affiliates. In connection with its plans to purchase the Shares pursuant to the Offer, Vestar has issued a capital call notice to its limited partners in an aggregate amount sufficient to pay for 97% of all outstanding Shares. Vestar expects to receive these funds to fund the Offer on or before September 10, 2010. In the event that more than approximately 97% of the Shares are tendered into the Offer, Vestar will draw on a credit line it maintains in an amount sufficient to pay for any such tendered Shares.

Vestar has provided Parent with an equity commitment letter pursuant to which Vestar has agreed to fund the entire purchase price of the Shares with its own capital, as described above. Health Grades is a third party beneficiary to the equity commitment letter. Vestar may allocate a portion of its equity commitment to limited partners of Vestar and certain other co-investors, provided that such allocation will not limit the obligations of Vestar under the equity commitment letter to the extent any such limited partner or co-investor fails to purchase the equity allocated to it. The terms and conditions of any such investment would be subject to negotiations and discussions among Vestar and the potential investors. In addition, Holdings, Parent and/or Purchaser may enter into debt financing arrangements prior to the purchase of the Shares and the consummation of the Merger, the proceeds of which financing may reduce the amount required to be contributed by Vestar Capital Partners V, L.P. under the equity commitment letter. However, the Offer is not conditional upon Holdings, Parent and/or Purchaser obtaining third party debt financing, and the failure to obtain third party debt financing has no bearing on Vestar’s commitment to provide the necessary funds pursuant to such equity commitment letter. A copy of the equity commitment letter has been filed as Exhibit (b)(1) to the Schedule TO, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Vestar will contribute funds required to pay for all Shares tendered into the Offer and accepted for payment to Holdings, which will contribute the funds to Parent, which Parent will contribute the funds to Purchaser. Purchaser will use the contributed funds to purchase the Shares pursuant to the Offer.

Credit Line. On November 9, 2007, Vestar and certain affiliated funds entered into a Loan and Security Credit Agreement for a $25.0 million revolving line of credit. The line of credit has an 18-month term which can be renewed. The current term of the line of credit will complete on September 7, 2011 unless further renewed. Interest on the line of credit is payable at a rate of prime minus 1%. As of August 31, 2010, there was no outstanding balance on the line of credit. A copy of the Loan and Security Agreement has been filed as Exhibit (b)(2) to the Schedule TO, which is incorporated herein by reference.
