(“Concentra”), to exchange (the “Exchange Offers”) a combination of cash and $185 million in aggregate principal amount of a new series of senior subordinated notes due 2017 (the “New Notes”) of Concentra’s newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, Viant Holdings, Inc., for any and all of Concentra Operating’s $155 million in aggregate principal amount of 9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 (CUSIP 20589QAM1) (the “9 1/8% Notes”) and $180 million in aggregate principal amount of 9 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2010 (CUSIP 20589QAE9) (the “9 1/2% Notes” and, together with the 9 1/8% Notes, the “Old Notes”). The Exchange Offers, which commenced on May 24, 2007, expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on June 21, 2007 (the “Expiration Date”).

As of the Expiration Date, $313,775,000 million aggregate principal amount of Old Notes had been validly tendered for exchange and not withdrawn, consisting of $148,615,000 aggregate principal amount of 9 1/8% Notes, or 95.88% of the total outstanding 9 1/8% Notes, and $165,160,000 aggregate principal amount of 9 1/2% Notes, or 91.76% of the total outstanding 9 1/2% Notes. Upon settlement of the Exchange Offers, Concentra will accept all of the Old Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Date and will deliver a combination of $185 million aggregate principal amount of New Notes and $155,219,636.98 million in cash, including accrued and unpaid interest, in exchange for the tendered Old Notes. Settlement of the Exchange Offers is expected to occur on Monday, June 25, 2007.

The Exchange Offers are only being made, and copies of the documents related to the Exchange Offers are only being made available, to holders of Old Notes that have certified certain matters to Concentra, including their status as either “qualified institutional buyers,” as that term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), or persons other than “U.S. persons,” as that term is defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act.
