Dear Valued Customer:


We are pleased to announce the acquisition of Micro Medical, by VIASYS Healthcare, Inc. Respiratory Care division. This transaction will bring together two very well-respected, innovative companies in respiratory diagnostics. The addition of Micro Medical greatly enhances the VIASYS portfolio of products for respiratory care and pulmonary medicine.  Moreover, this acquisition will allow VIASYS to meet a broader range of clinical needs in a variety of  settings including hospitals, clinics, primary care, and home care.


 We believe that this combination will deliver the next wave of innovation in respiratory diagnostics  technologies and the best support for our customers across the globe. VIASYS Healthcare and Micro  Medical are working in sites around the world to develop technologies and products to assist you in  addressing the challenges posed by respiratory disease.


 Our commitment is to develop, in partnership with the leading research institutions, and our customers, the  most comprehensive portfolio of devices and information systems available for respiratory diagnostics. We  expect the combined skills of Micro Medical and VIASYS to continue to provide best-in-class medical  devices targeted to improve outcomes for you and your patients.


 VIASYS will focus on building a global network to address the need for primary care spirometry screening  devices. In addition to this, we will do our part to increase awareness about chronic diseases such as  Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).


 During the upcoming transition period, we are committed to focusing on the needs of our customers first  and foremost. To help us deliver on that commitment, please continue to work with your existing VIASYS  Respiratory Care representative for all Jaeger and SensorMedics products and services and with your  existing Micro Medical representative for all Micro Medical products and services. Any future changes  that may impact you will be communicated in a timely and forthright manner.


 If you have any questions, we encourage you to check our website (www.viasyshealthcare.com) for  further announcements and frequently asked questions, or to contact your VIASYS or Micro Medical sales  or service representative.


 Sincerely,



 Edward Pulwer
 Group President
