Current Report on Form 8-K

 

ITEM 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

(a)(1) As previously reported in Radiologix's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 27, 2004, Radiologix and WB&A Imaging Partners, Inc., a Radiologix subsidiary operating in Maryland, planned to terminate their medical service agreement with the WB&A Imaging, P.C. radiology practice. The parties terminated their service agreement effective January 31, 2005.

(2) The parties entered into a termination agreement, pursuant to which:

(3) The termination process began during the third quarter of 2004, when Radiologix determined that the ability of the WB&A Imaging, P.C. practice group to perform its obligations under the medical services agreement had diminished significantly. Several Radiologix-owned imaging centers in the WB&A Imaging Partners, Inc. market were operating at financial losses, financial conditions had deteriorated at hospitals contracting with the radiology practice for professional reading arrangements, and two physician leaders from the radiology practice had resigned. As a result, Radiologix, its subsidiary, and the radiology practice agreed to terminate the medical services agreement.

(4) Neither Radiologix nor its subsidiary incurred any early termination penalties.
