Item 5. OTHER EVENTS
On May 22, 1995, ASC Atlanta Acquisition Company, Inc. ("ASC"), a
Delaware corporation which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of HEALTHSOUTH
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), commenced a tender offer
(the "Tender Offer") to purchase all of the outstanding 11 1/2% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2004 (the "Notes") of Surgical Health Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("SHC") at a cash price of $1,150 per $1,000 principal
amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the purchase
date. The total principal amount of the Notes is $75,000,000. The Tender Offer
will expire at 5:00 p.m. EDT on June 20, 1995 (the "Expiration Date") unless
extended by ASC and the Company.
ASC is also soliciting consents (the "Consent Solicitation") to the
adoption of the proposed amendments to the indenture pursuant to which the Notes
were originally issued (the "Indenture"). Holders of Notes who tender their
Notes in the Tender Offer will be deemed to have consented to the proposed
amendments. There will be no separate payments for the consents. The price paid
by ASC for the Notes shall be deemed to include payment for the consents.
HEALTHSOUTH, ASC and SHC entered into a Plan and Agreement of Merger
dated January 22, 1995, pursuant to which a merger (the "Merger") will be
effected between ASC and SHC, with SHC being the surviving corporation following
the Merger. SHC will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of HEALTHSOUTH. The Merger is
not conditioned on the successful completion of the Tender Offer or the Consent
Solicitation.
The consummation of both the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation
are conditioned upon, among other things, the consummation of the Merger, there
having been validly tendered (and not withdrawn) prior to the Expiration Date
not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding,
and the execution of a supplemental indenture to the Indenture providing for the
proposed amendments following the consummation of the Merger and receipt of the
written consent of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
outstanding (the "Requisite Consent"). The proposed amendments would permit SHC
(as successor to ASC following the Merger) to, among other things, increase the
amount of indebtedness that it may incur and permit SHC to pay dividends.
Tenders of Notes and Consents may be withdrawn at any time until the
Requisite Consents have been received and the supplemental indenture has been
executed by SHC and the trustee under the Indenture.
The pro forma effects of the Tender Offer on the Company's financial
statements at December 31, 1994, are as reflected in Item 7 of the Company's
Current Report on Form 8- K/A, Amendment No. 5, filed June 2, 1995 (relating to
the acquisition of certain rehabilitation facilities from NovaCare, Inc.).
Item 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
(b) Pro Forma Financial Information.

31, 1994, and for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, was filed

filed June 2, 1995 (relating to the acquisition of certain rehabilitation
