Item 8.01. Other Events.

On February 11, 2014, Accellent Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has commenced tender offers to purchase for cash (i) any and all of its 8 3/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 and (ii) any and all of its 10% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (together, the “Notes”). In each case, the tender offers are to be made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated February 11, 2014, and in the related Letter of Transmittal. Each tender offer is conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions as described in more detail in the Offer to Purchase: (1) the consummation of the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Lake Region Medical Holdings, Inc. by the Company (the “Merger”), (2) the entry by the Company into financing transactions totaling $1.13 billion to provide the full amount of financing required to consummate the Merger and to refinance the Notes and the Company’s existing credit facilities, and (3) the general conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase. Neither tender offer is conditioned upon the completion of the other tender offer. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell any of the Notes. A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated into this Item 8.01 by reference.
