Item 8.01 Other Events.

     On May 14, 2007, Cardinal Health, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of May 11, 2007, among the Company, Eagle Merger Corp. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and VIASYS Healthcare Inc. (“VIASYS”).

     Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub commenced a cash tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of VIASYS, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), at a price per share equal to $42.75, upon the terms and subject to the conditions disclosed in the Offer to Purchase included in the tender offer statement on Schedule TO and in the related Letter of Transmittal (as amended or supplemented from time to time) filed by the Company and Merger Sub with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 23, 2007 (the “Offer”).

     The initial period of the Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Daylight Time, at the end of Wednesday, June 20, 2007. On June 21, 2007, the Company announced in a press release that Merger Sub had commenced a subsequent offering period to acquire all remaining untendered Shares. The subsequent offering period expired at 6:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on Wednesday, June 27, 2007. According to Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the depositary for the Offer, as of 6:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, June 27, 2007, a total of approximately 29.3 million Shares were validly tendered in the initial and subsequent offering periods of the Offer, which represent approximately 88% of all outstanding Shares. Merger Sub has accepted the Shares tendered during the subsequent offering period for payment pursuant to the terms of the Offer.

     On June 28, 2007, Merger Sub exercised its option under the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Option”) to acquire from VIASYS a number of additional Shares for $42.75 per Share, so that it would hold more than 90% of the outstanding Shares on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the issuance of Shares pursuant to the Merger Option. The closing of the issuance of Shares pursuant to the Merger Option occurred on June 28, 2007.

     The Company is also announcing that effective as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on Thursday, June 28, 2007, Merger Sub acquired all of the remaining outstanding Shares by effecting a “short-form” merger under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware without action by any other stockholder since it had acquired more than 90% of the outstanding Shares. In the merger, Merger Sub merged with and into VIASYS, and VIASYS became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In the merger, each Share was cancelled and (except for Shares held by the Company, Merger Sub or VIASYS, or any wholly owned subsidiary of VIASYS, the capital stock of Merger Sub, or Shares held by stockholders properly exercising dissenters’ rights under Delaware law) converted into the right to receive $42.75 per Share in cash, without interest.
