Acquisition of IZI Medical Products, LLC

On November 14, 2011, Landauer acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of IZI Medical Products, LLC (“IZI”), a leading provider of high quality medical consumable accessories used in radiology, radiation therapy, and image guided surgery procedures, for $93,000 plus working capital and the assumption of liabilities.The Company completed the acquisition of IZI as a platform to expand into the radiation oncology, radiology, and image guided surgery end markets.The operating results of IZI are reported in the Medical Products reporting segment.

A portion of the purchase price, in the amount of $26,941, was applied to repay the outstanding indebtedness of IZI and certain unpaid expenses incurred by IZI and other disclosed parties in connection with the transaction.Landauer also deposited $9,300 of the purchase price into an escrow account, which will be held until January 2013 and applied to the settlement of the IZI seller’s indemnification obligations, if any, in connection with the transaction.The Company funded the acquisition through borrowings under the new credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders led by BMO Harris and PNC Bank.

The following table summarizes the $94,283 of consideration transferred to acquire IZI and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the date of the acquisition.

Current assets	$	4,587
Property, plant and equipment		763
Intangible assets		27,000
Goodwill		64,069
Non-current deferred taxes, net		212
Other non-current assets		24
Current liabilities		(2,196)
Other long-term liabilities		(176)
Total assets acquired and liabilities assumed	$	94,283

The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired resulted in goodwill of $64,069, which is attributable primarily to the earnings power of the future products and services expected to be produced by IZI, new customer expansion opportunities in adjacent markets that are expected to result from the business combination with Landauer, and the potential to acquire or merge with other businesses. The goodwill has been assigned to the Medical Products reporting segment.For income tax purposes, the Company will deduct $64,641 of goodwill, which will be amortized over 15 years.The Company acquired trademarks and tradenames in the amount of $2,000 which have indefinite lives, patents in the amount of $2,000 which are being amortized over 7 years, and $23,000 of customer relationships which are being amortized over 15 years.For income tax purposes, the values of the trademarks and tradenames, patents and customer relationships will be amortized over 15 years.

IZI’s revenues of $6,239 and net income of $1,510 were recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the period from November 14, 2011 to March 31, 2012.
