On December 22, 2010, Diana J. Vance-Bryan was promoted to Executive Vice President of Operations of Universal Hospital Services, Inc. (the “Company”), effective January 1, 2011.  In this position, Ms. Vance-Bryan will serve as principal operating officer of the Company, filling a role that was held by Timothy W. Kuck until June 27, 2010.  As of January 1, 2011, Ms. Vance-Bryan will cease acting as the Company’s Senior Vice President and General Counsel.

 

Diana Vance-Bryan, 54, joined the Company in 2006 as Senior Vice President and General Counsel.  She has 25 years of legal experience, primarily in the health care sector.  From 2004 to 2006, Ms. Vance-Bryan served as Vice President and General Counsel of Novartis Nutrition Corporation, a leading manufacturer of medical nutrition products, which was acquired by Nestlè in 2007.  Ms. Vance-Bryan is a graduate of Mercy Hospital School of Nursing, and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from The University of Iowa College of Nursing and a Juris Doctor degree from The University of Iowa College of Law.  There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Vance-Bryan and any other persons pursuant to which Ms. Vance-Bryan was selected as Executive Vice President of Operations.  Ms. Vance-Bryan does not have a direct or indirect material interest in any currently proposed transaction to which the Company is to be a party in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000, nor has Ms. Vance-Bryan had a direct or indirect material interest in any such transaction since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year.

 

Ms. Vance-Bryan does not have an employment agreement with the Company.  The Company’s Compensation Committee will determine any changes in Ms. Vance-Bryan’s base salary and her target award under the Executive Incentive Program in connection with her promotion prior to or at the next committee meeting.

 

Effective June 27, 2010, Mr. Kuck ceased acting as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and was appointed the Company’s Executive Vice President, Strategy & Business Development.  The change was made to reflect a change in Mr. Kuck’s focus from operations to strategic initiatives.  Mr. Kuck’s compensation arrangements remained the same following this change.
