Item 8.01.   Other Events
     On June 3, 2008, SNTC Holding, Inc. (the “Seller”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of HLTH Corporation, and General Dynamics Information Technology, Inc. (the “Purchaser”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of General Dynamics Corporation (“GDC”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement providing for the sale of HLTH’s ViPS segment to the Purchaser.
