On the Closing Date, Gentiva Health Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Gentiva”), completed its proposed acquisition of Odyssey pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 23, 2010 (the “Plan of Merger”), by and among Gentiva, GTO Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gentiva (“Merger Sub”), and Odyssey. On the Closing Date, Merger Sub merged with and into Odyssey with Odyssey continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gentiva (the “Merger”).

As previously reported by Odyssey, its stockholders adopted the Plan of Merger and approved the Merger at a special meeting of stockholders held on August 9, 2010.
The foregoing description of the Plan of Merger is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan of Merger, which was filed on May 24, 2010 as Exhibit 2.1 to Odyssey’s Current Report on Form 8-K.
| Item 3.01. | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
In connection with the Merger, pursuant to a written request submitted by Odyssey to the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) on August 17, 2010, trading of Odyssey’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market ceased trading, and the listing of Odyssey’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market was suspended prior to the open of trading on August 18, 2010.

Upon consummation of the Merger, each share of Odyssey common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than any shares owned by holders properly exercising

dissenters’ appraisal rights under Delaware law, shares that are owned by Odyssey as treasury stock and any shares owned by Gentiva, Merger Sub or any other wholly-owned subsidiary of Gentiva) was converted into the right to receive $27.00 in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), without interest and subject to any required withholding of taxes.
Each stock option, whether vested or unvested, to purchase shares of Odyssey common stock (an “Option”) that was outstanding immediately before the effective time of the Merger was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash (subject to any applicable withholding of taxes) determined by multiplying (i) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the applicable exercise price of the Option by (ii) the number of shares subject to such Option. Options with an exercise price greater than or equal to the Merger Consideration were cancelled immediately prior to the effective time for no consideration.
Each share of restricted stock, whether vested or unvested, that was outstanding immediately before the effective time of the Merger was converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (subject to any applicable withholding of taxes). Each restricted stock unit, whether vested or unvested, that was outstanding immediately before the effective time of the Merger was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash determined by multiplying the Merger Consideration by the number of shares subject to such restricted stock unit (subject to any applicable withholding of taxes).
Holders of Odyssey common stock, Options, restricted stock and restricted stock units issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger no longer have any rights with respect to such securities, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration, nor do they have any interest in Odyssey’s future earnings or growth.
The foregoing description of the Merger Consideration and payment thereof is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan of Merger, which was filed on May 24, 2010 as Exhibit 2.1 to Odyssey’s Current Report on Form 8-K.
