QUEST DIAGNOSTICS INCORPORATED

The Company

We are the nation’s leading provider of diagnostic testing, information and services, providing insights that enable physicians and other healthcare professionals to make decisions to improve health. We offer patients and physicians the broadest access to diagnostic laboratory services through our nationwide network of laboratories and our own patient service centers. We provide interpretive consultation through the largest medical and scientific staff in the industry, with approximately 900 M.D.’s and Ph.D.’s around the country. We are the leading provider of esoteric testing, including gene-based testing, the leading provider of anatomic pathology services, including dermatopathology, and the leading provider of testing for drugs of abuse. We are also a leading provider of testing for clinical trials and risk assessment services for the life insurance industry. We empower healthcare organizations and clinicians with state-of-the-art information technology solutions that can improve patient care and medical practice.

During 2006, we generated net revenues of $6.3 billion and processed approximately 151 million requisitions for testing. Each requisition form accompanies a patient specimen, indicating the tests to

ii


be performed and the party to be billed for the tests. Our customers include patients, physicians, hospitals, employers, governmental institutions and other commercial clinical laboratories. On May 31, 2007, we acquired AmeriPath Group Holdings, Inc., the ultimate parent of AmeriPath, Inc., which generated net revenues of $752 million during 2006.

We operate a nationwide network of greater than 2,100 of our own patient service centers, principal clinical laboratories located in more than 30 major metropolitan areas throughout the United States and approximately 150 smaller “rapid response” laboratories (including, in each case, facilities operated at our joint ventures). We provide full esoteric testing services, including gene-based testing, on both coasts through our Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute laboratory facilities, located in San Juan Capistrano, California and Chantilly, Virginia, and through our Specialty Laboratories facility located in Valencia, California, as well as infectious and immunologic disease testing through our Focus Diagnostics laboratory facility, located in Cypress, California. Our AmeriPath subsidiary operates 40 outpatient anatomic pathology laboratories and provides inpatient anatomic pathology and medical director services for approximately 200 hospitals throughout the country. We also have laboratory facilities in Mexico City, Mexico, San Juan, Puerto Rico and Heston, England.

We are a Delaware corporation. We are the successor to MetPath Inc., a New York corporation that was organized in 1967. From 1982 to 1996, we were a subsidiary of Corning Incorporated, or Corning. On December 31, 1996, Corning distributed all of the outstanding shares of our common stock to the stockholders of Corning. In August 1999, we completed the acquisition of SmithKline Beecham Clinical Laboratories, Inc., or SBCL, which operated the clinical laboratory business of SmithKline Beecham plc, or SmithKline Beecham.

Our principal executive offices are located at 1290 Wall Street West, Lyndhurst, New Jersey 07071, telephone number: (201) 393-5000.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

We file annual, quarterly and special reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. You may read and copy any reports, statements or other information we file with the SEC at its public reference rooms at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. Please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the public reference rooms.

Our subsidiary guarantors do not file separate financial statements with the SEC and do not independently publish their financial statements. Instead, our subsidiary guarantors’ financial condition, results of operations and cash flows are consolidated into our financial statements. Summarized financial information illustrating our subsidiary guarantors’ financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, on a combined basis, is disclosed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as noted below. The summarized financial information does not include the subsidiaries recently acquired in our acquisition of AmeriPath Group Holdings, Inc.

The SEC allows us to incorporate by reference into this document the information we filed with it. This means that we can disclose important business, financial and other information to you by referring you to other documents separately filed with the SEC.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

Some statements and disclosures in this prospectus, or any accompanying prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated herein or therein by reference are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts and can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan” or “continue.” These forward-looking statements are based on our current plans and expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could significantly cause our plans and expectations, including actual results, to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, or the Litigation Reform Act, provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their companies without fear of litigation.

We would like to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Litigation Reform Act in connection with the forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this document. Investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented or incorporated by reference in this document. The following important factors could cause our actual financial results to differ materially from those projected, forecasted or estimated by us in forward-looking statements:

(a) Heightened competition, including increased pricing pressure, competition from hospitals, and competition from physicians.

(b) Impact of changes in payer mix, including any shift from fee-for-service to capitated fee arrangements.

(c) Adverse actions by government or other third-party payers, including unilateral reduction of fee schedules payable to us, competitive bidding, an increase in the practice of negotiating for exclusive arrangements that involve aggressively priced capitated or fee for service payments by healthcare insurers or other payers and threats by third-party payers against physicians and patients that effectively eliminate their choice to use an out-of-network provider under preferred provider organization and similar plans.

(d) The impact upon our testing volume and collected revenue or general or administrative expenses resulting from our compliance with Medicare and Medicaid administrative policies and requirements of third-party payers. These include:

(1) the requirements of Medicare carriers to provide diagnosis codes for many commonly ordered tests and the possibility that third-party payers will increasingly adopt similar requirements;

(2) the policy of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to limit Medicare reimbursement for tests contained in automated chemistry panels to the amount that would have been paid if only the covered tests, determined on the basis of demonstrable “medical necessity,” had been ordered;

(3) continued inconsistent practices among the different local carriers administering Medicare;

(4) inability to obtain from patients an advance beneficiary notice form for tests that cannot be billed without prior receipt of the form;

(5) the potential need to monitor charges and lower certain fees to Medicare to comply with the Office of the Inspector General’s proposed rule pertaining to exclusion of providers for submitting claims to Medicare containing charges that are substantially in excess of the provider’s usual charges; and

(6) increased challenges in operating as a non-contracted provider with respect to healthcare insurers.

(e) Adverse results from pending or future government investigations, lawsuits or private actions. These include, in particular, significant monetary damages, loss or suspension of

1


licenses, and/or suspension or exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs and/or criminal penalties.

(f) Failure to efficiently integrate acquired businesses and to manage the costs related to any such integration, or to retain key technical, medical and management personnel.

(g) Inability to obtain professional liability or other insurance coverage or a material increase in premiums for such coverage or reserves for self-insurance.

(h) Denial of certification under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988, or CLIA, or denial of other licenses for any of our clinical laboratories under the CLIA standards, revocation or suspension of the right to bill the Medicare and Medicaid programs or other adverse regulatory actions by federal, state and local agencies.

(i) Changes in federal, state or local laws or regulations, including changes that result in new or increased federal or state regulation of commercial clinical laboratories, including regulation by the Food and Drug Administration.

(j) Inability to achieve expected benefits from our acquisitions of other businesses.

(k) Inability to achieve additional benefits from our Six Sigma and standardization initiatives.

(l) Adverse publicity and news coverage about the clinical laboratory industry or us.

(m) Computer or other IT system failures that affect our ability to perform tests, report test results or properly bill customers, including potential failures resulting from the standardization of our IT systems and other system conversions, telecommunications failures, malicious human acts (such as electronic break-ins or computer viruses) or natural disasters.

(n) Development of technologies that substantially alter the practice of laboratory medicine, including technology changes that lead to the development of more cost-effective tests such as (1) point-of-care tests that can be performed by physicians in their offices, (2) esoteric tests that can be performed by hospitals in their own laboratories or (3) home testing that can be carried out without requiring the services of clinical laboratories.

(o) Issuance of patents or other property rights to our competitors or others that could prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to develop, perform or sell our tests or operate our business.

(p) Development of tests by our competitors or others which we may not be able to license, or usage of our technology or similar technologies or our trade secrets by competitors, any of which could negatively affect our competitive position.

(q) Regulatory delay or inability to commercialize newly licensed tests or technologies or to obtain appropriate reimbursements for such tests.

(r) Inability to obtain or maintain adequate patent and other proprietary rights protections of our products and services or to successfully enforce our proprietary rights.

(s) Impact of any national healthcare information network and the adoption of standards for health information technology interoperability that are incompatible with existing software and hardware infrastructure requiring widespread replacement of systems and/or software.

(t) The impact of the privacy regulations, security regulations and standards for electronic transactions regulations issued under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and any applicable state laws or regulations.

(u) Inability to promptly or properly bill for our services or to obtain appropriate payments for services that we do bill.

(v) Changes in interest rates and changes in our credit ratings from Standard & Poor’s Rating Services and Moody’s Investor Services causing an unfavorable impact on our cost of and access to capital.

(w) Inability to hire and retain qualified personnel or the loss of the services of one or more of our key senior management personnel.

(x) Terrorist and other criminal activities, hurricanes, earthquakes or other natural disasters, which could affect our customers, transportation or systems, or our facilities, and for which insurance may not adequately reimburse us.

2


USE OF PROCEEDS

Except as may be described otherwise in a prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, we will add the net proceeds from the sale of the securities under this prospectus to our general funds and will use them for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, funding acquisitions or reducing or refinancing indebtedness.

3


RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

Set forth below is information concerning the historical ratio of earnings to fixed charges for Quest Diagnostics. This ratio shows the extent to which our business generates enough earnings after the payment of all expenses other than interest to make required interest payments on our debt.

For this purpose, earnings consist of pretax income from continuing operations plus fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest expense and one-third of rental expense, representing that portion of rental expense we deemed representative of an appropriate interest factor.

SECURITIES WE MAY ISSUE

Overview

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the SEC utilizing a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf process, we may sell our senior debt securities, or guarantees of our debt securities, in one or more offerings.

The terms of the securities will be determined at the time of offering.

We will refer to the debt securities and the guarantees of the debt securities or any combination of those securities, proposed to be sold under this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement or pricing supplement as the “securities.”

Because we are a well-known seasoned issuer, as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, we may add to and offer additional securities including secondary securities and guarantees of securities by filing a prospectus supplement or term sheet with the SEC at the time of the offer.

Prospectus Supplement or Pricing Supplement

This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement or pricing supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering. The prospectus supplement or pricing supplement may also add to or change information contained in this prospectus. If so, the prospectus supplement or pricing supplement should be read as superseding this prospectus. You should read both this prospectus and any prospectus supplement or pricing supplement together with additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.”

The prospectus supplement or pricing supplement to be provided with this prospectus will describe the terms of any securities that we offer and any initial offering price to the public in that offering, the purchase price and net proceeds that we will receive and the other specific terms related to our offering of the securities. For more details on the terms of the securities, you should read the exhibits filed with or incorporated by reference in our registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part.

DESCRIPTION OF SENIOR DEBT SECURITIES
AND GUARANTEES OF SENIOR DEBT SECURITIES

We may issue senior debt securities from time to time in one or more distinct series. We may also issue guarantees of our senior debt securities from time to time.

As required by U.S. federal law for all bonds and notes of companies that are publicly offered, the senior debt securities will be governed by a document called an “indenture.” An indenture is a contract between us and a financial institution, in this case, The Bank of New York, acting as trustee on your behalf, or other trustee we may select. The indenture will be subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939.

We have filed the indenture as an exhibit to our Securities Act filings and Exchange Act reports that we have filed with the SEC. See “Where You Can Find More Information” for information on how to obtain a copy of the indenture.

The senior debt securities will be issued under an indenture dated as of June 27, 2001 as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture, dated as of June 27, 2001, each among Quest Diagnostics, as issuer, the Initial Subsidiary Guarantors, as guarantors, and The Bank of New York, as trustee, as further supplemented by a second supplemental indenture, dated as of November 26, 2001, among Quest Diagnostics, the Subsidiary Guarantors and The Bank of New York, as further supplemented by a third supplemental indenture, dated as of April 4, 2002, among Quest Diagnostics, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors and The Bank of New York, as further supplemented by a fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of March 19, 2003, among Quest Diagnostics, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors and The Bank of New York, as further supplemented by a fifth supplemental indenture, dated as of April 16, 2004, among Quest Diagnostics, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors and The Bank of New York, as further supplemented by a sixth supplemental indenture, dated as of October 31, 2005, among Quest Diagnostics, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors and The Bank of New York, as further supplemented by a seventh supplemental indenture, dated as of November 21, 2005, among Quest Diagnostics, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors and The Bank of New York and as further supplemented by an eighth supplemental indenture, dated as of July 31, 2006, among Quest Diagnostics, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors and The Bank of New York and as further supplemented by the ninth supplemental indenture dated September 30, 2006, among Quest Diagnostics, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors and The Bank of New York (collectively, the “Indenture”). The Indenture for the senior debt securities may also be modified by future supplemental indentures. The terms of the senior debt securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. A copy of the Indenture is available for inspection at the office of the trustee.

6


PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities to or through agents or underwriters or directly to one or more purchasers.

By Agents

We may use agents to sell the securities. The agents will agree to use their reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases of the period of their appointment.

By Underwriters

We may sell the securities to underwriters. The underwriters may resell the securities in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions. Each underwriter will be obligated to purchase all the securities allocated to it under the underwriting agreement. The underwriters may change any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions they give to dealers.

Direct Sales

We may sell securities directly to investors. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved.

As one of the means of direct issuance of securities, we may utilize the services of any available electronic auction system to conduct an electronic “dutch auction” of the offered securities among potential purchasers who are eligible to participate in the auction of those offered securities, if so described in the prospectus supplement or pricing supplement.

General Information

Any underwriters or agents will be identified and their compensation described in a prospectus supplement or pricing supplement.

We may have agreements with the underwriters, dealers and agents to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or to contribute to payments they may be required to make.

Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us or our subsidiaries in the ordinary course of their business.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Limitation on Liability of Directors

Pursuant to authority conferred by Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), Paragraph 11 of our certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate”) eliminates the personal liability of directors to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, including, without limitation, directors serving on committees of our board of directors. Directors remain liable for (1) any breach of the duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (2) any act or omission not in good faith or which involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) any violation of Section 174 of the DGCL, which proscribes the payment of dividends and stock purchases or redemptions under certain circumstances, and (4) any transaction from which directors derive an improper personal benefit.

Indemnification and Insurance

In accordance with Section 145 of the DGCL, which provides for the indemnification of directors, officers and employees under certain circumstances, Paragraph 11 of the Certificate grants our directors and officers a right to indemnification for all expenses, liabilities and losses relating to civil, criminal, administrative or investigative proceedings to which they are a party (1) by reason of the fact that they are or were our directors or officers or (2) by reason of the fact that, while they are or were our directors or officers, they are or were serving at our request as directors or officers of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or enterprise.

Paragraph 11 of the Certificate further provides for the mandatory advancement of expenses incurred by officers and directors in defending such proceedings in advance of their final disposition upon delivery to us by the indemnitee of an undertaking to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under Paragraph 11. We may not indemnify or make advance payments to any person in connection with proceedings initiated against us by such person without the authorization of our board of directors.

In addition, Paragraph 11 of the Certificate provides that directors and officers therein described shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, or any successor provisions or amendments thereunder.

In the event that any such successor provisions or amendments provide indemnification rights broader than permitted prior thereto, Paragraph 11 of the Certificate allows such broader indemnification rights to apply retroactively with respect to any predating alleged action or inaction and also allows the indemnification to continue after an indemnitee has ceased to be our director or officer and to inure to the benefit of the indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators.

II-1


Paragraph 11 of the Certificate further provides that the right to indemnification is not exclusive of any other right that any indemnitee may have or thereafter acquire under any statute, the Certificate, any agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, and allows us to indemnify and advance expenses to any person whom the corporation has the power to indemnify under the DGCL or otherwise.

Each of the form of underwriting agreement to be filed as Exhibits 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 hereto will provide for the indemnification of the registrant, its controlling persons, its directors and certain of its officers by the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for directors and officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The Certificate authorizes us to purchase insurance for our directors and officers and persons who serve at our request as directors, officers, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or enterprise against any expense, liability or loss incurred in such capacity, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify such persons against such expense or liability under the DGCL. We intend to maintain insurance coverage of our officers and directors as well as insurance coverage to reimburse us for potential costs of our corporate indemnification of directors and officers.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statements Schedules.

The exhibits to this registration statement are listed in the Exhibit Index to this registration statement, which Exhibit Index is hereby incorporated by reference.

Item 17. Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of senior debt securities offered (if the total dollar value of senior debt securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) above do not apply if information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement;

II-2


(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the senior debt securities offered therein, and the offering of such senior debt securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the senior debt securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering;

(4) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(A) each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(B) each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of senior debt securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the senior debt securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such senior debt securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date;

(5) that, for the purpose of determining liability of a registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the senior debt securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of senior debt securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the senior debt securities to the purchaser, if the senior debt securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such senior debt securities to such purchaser:

(i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of an undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by an undersigned registrant;

(iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about an undersigned registrant or its senior debt securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in

II-3


the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the senior debt securities offered therein, and the offering of such senior debt securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions set forth in response to Item 15, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the senior debt securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.

Exhibit 5.1

 

 

[Letterhead of Shearman & Sterling LLP]

 

June 19, 2007

 

 

The Board of Directors

Quest Diagnostics Incorporated

1290 Wall Street West

Lyndhurst, NJ 07071

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Quest Diagnostics Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation and filing by the Company of a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the offering from time to time, pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of (i) one or more series of debt securities of the Company (the “Debt Securities”) and (ii) guarantees of such Debt Securities (the “Guarantees” and, together with the Debt Securities, the “Securities”) by certain subsidiaries of the Company, as specified in the Registration Statement (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The offering of the Securities will be as set forth in the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”), as supplemented by one or more supplements to the Prospectus (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”).

The Securities will be issued in one or more series pursuant to an indenture, dated as of June 27, 2001 (the “Base Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors (as defined herein) and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture, dated as of June 27, 2001, among the Company, the Initial Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) party thereto as guarantors, and the Trustee, as further supplemented by a second supplemental indenture, dated as of November 26, 2001, among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) party thereto and the Trustee, as further supplemented by a third supplemental indenture, dated as of April 4, 2002, among the Company, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) party thereto and the Trustee, as further supplemented by a fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of March 19, 2003, among the Company, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) party thereto and the Trustee, as further supplemented by a fifth supplemental indenture, dated as of April 16, 2004, among the Company, the additional Subsidiary Guarantor (as defined therein) party thereto and the Trustee, as further supplemented by a sixth supplemental indenture dated October 31, 2005, among the

 



 

Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, as further supplemented by a seventh supplemental indenture dated November 21, 2005, among the Company, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) and the Trustee, as further supplemented by an eighth supplemental indenture dated July 31, 2006, among the Company, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) and the Trustee, as further supplemented by the ninth supplemental indenture dated September 30, 2006, among the Company, the additional Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) and the Trustee (collectively, the “Indenture”).

In that connection, we have reviewed originals or copies of the:

 

(a)

The Indenture.

 

(b)

A specimen of the Debt Securities.

 

(c)

A specimen of the Guarantees.

The documents described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (c) of this paragraph are collectively referred to herein as the “Opinion Documents”.

We have also reviewed the following:

 

(a)

The Registration Statement.

 

(b)

The Prospectus.

We have also reviewed originals or copies of such other corporate records of the Company, certificates of public officials and of officers of the Company and agreements and other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

In our review of the Opinion Documents and other documents, and otherwise for the purposes of this opinion, we have assumed:

 

(a)

The genuineness of all signatures.

 

(b)

The authenticity of the originals of the documents submitted to us.

  (c) The conformity to authentic originals of any documents submitted to us as copies.
  (d) As to matters of fact, the truthfulness of the representations made in the Opinion Documents and in certificates of public officials and officers of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors
  (e) That the Opinion Documents are the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto, other than the Company, enforceable against each such party, other than the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, in accordance with its terms.
  (f) That:

          

          .

          

 

 

 

2

 



 

 

(i)     Each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization.

(ii)     Each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors has the full power to execute, deliver and perform, and has duly executed and delivered, the Opinion Documents to which it is a party

(iii)     The execution, delivery and performance by the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary action (corporate or otherwise) and do not:

(A)     contravene its certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents;

(B)     violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to it; or

(C)     result in any conflict with or breach of any agreement or document binding on it of which any addressee hereof has knowledge, has received notice or has reason to know.

(iv)     No authorization, approval, consent or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by any of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors of any of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party or, if any such authorization, approval, consent, action, notice or filing is required, it has been duly obtained, taken, given or made and is in full force and effect.

We have not independently established the validity of the foregoing assumptions.

Generally Applicable Law” means the federal law of the United States of America, and the law of the State of New York (including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or pursuant thereto), that a New York lawyer exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably be expected to recognize as being applicable to the Company or the Guarantors, the Opinion Documents or the transactions governed by the Opinion Documents, the term “Generally Applicable Law” does not include any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to the Company, the Opinion Documents or such transactions solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to the specific assets or business of any party to any of the Opinion Documents or any of its affiliates.

Based upon the foregoing and upon such other investigation as we have deemed necessary and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that,

1.     The Indenture constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, enforceable against the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

 

 

 

3

 



 

 

2.     When (i) the Debt Securities have been duly authorized, (ii) the final terms thereof have been duly established and approved and (iii) the Debt Securities have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture and delivered to and paid for by the purchasers thereof, the Debt Securities will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with the terms thereof and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

3.     When (i) the Guarantees have been duly authorized (ii) the final terms thereof have been duly established and approved, (iii) the Guarantees have been duly executed and delivered by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with the Indenture and (iv) the Debt Securities have been authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture, the Guarantees will constitute legal, valid and binding obligation of the Subsidiary Guarantors enforceable against the Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with the terms thereof and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

4.     Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

(a)    Our opinions in paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including without limitation all laws relating to fraudulent transfers).

(b)   Our opinions in paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above are also subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(c)    Our opinions are limited to Generally Applicable Law, and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any other law.

This opinion letter is rendered to you in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement. This opinion letter may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to advise you of any development or circumstance of any kind, including any change of law or fact, that may occur after the date of this opinion letter that might affect the opinions expressed therein.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the heading “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Shearman & Sterling LLP
