                                  (Unaudited)


General

Diagnostek,  Inc., a holding company  incorporated under the laws of Delaware on
August 3, 1983,  together with its subsidiaries  (collectively,  "Diagnostek" or
the "Company"),  is a leading provider of pharmacy benefit  management  services
designed  to contain  the costs of  dispensing  pharmaceuticals  with  principal
business  activities being the providing of prescription  drugs through mail and
retail  pharmacy  service  plans  and  providing  contract  pharmacy  management
services to acute care hospitals and HMOs.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the  instructions  to Article 10 of Regulation S-X and,  therefore,  do not
include all  information  and  footnotes  necessary for a fair  presentation  of
financial  position,  results of operations,  and cash flows in conformity  with
generally accepted  accounting  principles.  The information  furnished,  in the
opinion of management,  reflects all adjustments, which include normal recurring
adjustments,  necessary  to present  fairly the  results  of  operations  of the
Company for the three  month  periods  ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.  Results of
operations for interim periods are not  necessarily  indicative of results which
may be expected for the year as a whole.

Consolidation  The  consolidated   financial  statements  represent  the  adding
together  of all  companies  of which  Diagnostek  directly  or  indirectly  has
majority ownership or otherwise controls.  Significant intercompany accounts and
transactions  have  been  eliminated.   The  Company's   consolidated  financial
statements  include the  accounts of its  wholly-owned  affiliates,  Health Care
Services,  Inc. ("HCS"),  and HPI Health Care Services,  Inc. ("HPI");  together
with their subsidiaries, and other controlled affiliates.

Revenue and cost of sales Sales of goods and services are recorded on medication
dispensing  or passage of title to  customers  in  accordance  with  contractual
terms. Cost of sales are recorded based on the cost of pharmaceuticals dispensed
and related direct costs. In addition, the Company accrues costs associated with
its  risk/reward  contracts  which it estimates  will not be  recovered  through
projected revenues.

Cash and cash equivalents  Money market accounts and temporary  investments with
original  maturities  of  ninety  days or less  are  included  in cash  and cash
equivalents.

Inventories  Inventories,   consisting  primarily  of  prescription  medications
purchased for resale, are stated at the lower of cost, on a first-in,  first-out
basis, or market.

Property,  plant,  and equipment  Property,  plant,  and equipment are stated at
cost.  Provisions for  depreciation  are recorded using both  straight-line  and
accelerated  methods over the useful lives of the respective  assets.  Leasehold
improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of economic
life or terms of the respective leases.

             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(continued)


Intangible  assets Goodwill is amortized using the  straight-line  method,  over
fifteen to forty years.  Other intangible  assets consist  primarily of acquired
contract   rights  and   covenants  not  to  compete  and  are  amortized  on  a
straight-line basis over periods ranging from three to twelve years.

         The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill based on estimated
undiscounted  operating income over the goodwill  amortization  periods,  giving
consideration  to  sales  and  cost  benefits  expected  to be  realized  by the
consolidated  group from the  acquisition of the acquired  company.  The Company
also evaluates industry trends and historical trends of the acquired  companies,
the  potential  impact of pending  and  proposed  regulations  and the effect of
competition.

Marketable  securities The Company accounts for marketable  securities utilizing
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity  Securities".  All
marketable  securities at June 30, 1995 and 1994 were deemed by management to be
available for sale and therefore are reported at fair value with net  unrealized
gains (losses) reported in stockholders' equity.

Income taxes  Diagnostek  utilizes the asset and liability  method for recording
deferred  income taxes,  which  provides for the  establishment  of deferred tax
asset or liability  accounts based on the  difference  between tax and financial
reporting bases of certain assets and liabilities.

Treasury stock  Treasury  stock is carried at acquisition  cost (market price at
acquisition date).

Earnings  per  common  and  equivalent  share  Earnings  per  common  and common
equivalent  share is computed on the  weighted  average  number of shares,  less
treasury  stock and,  if  dilutive,  common  equivalent  shares  (common  shares
assuming exercise of options and warrants).  For the three-month  periods ending
June 30,  1995 and  1994,  approximately  1.2  million  and 1.3  million  common
equivalent  shares  respectively,  were included in the  computation of weighted
average shares.  Fully diluted  earnings per share are not materially  different
than primary earnings per share and have not been presented.

Note 2 -  Merger

         On March 27, 1995, the Company entered into a definitive  Agreement and
Plan of Merger (the "Merger  Agreement") with Value Health,  Inc. ("VHI"), a New
York Stock  Exchange  company that  provides  specialized  managed care programs
including pharmacy benefit  management  services,  and VHI Merger-Sub.  Corp., a
wholly-owned   subsidiary  of  VHI  pursuant  to  which  the  Company  became  a
wholly-owned  subsidiary of VHI (the  "Merger") on July 28, 1995. It is intended
that the Merger will qualify as a pooling of interests for  accounting  purposes
and will constitute a tax-free  reorganization  for federal income tax purposes.
In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, as amended,
each share of the Company's common stock ( and outstanding common stock options)
was converted into common stock (and common stock options) of VHI at an exchange
ratio of 0.4975. In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company's Chairman
of the Board and Chief Executive Officer has entered into a five year consulting
agreement  and ten year  agreement  not to  compete  with  VHI and the  Company,
effective  only  upon  the  consummation  of  the  Merger.  At  June  30,  1995,
approximately  $1.1  million  of  costs  associated  with  the  Merger  has been
deferred.  As a  result  of the  announcement  of the  execution  of the  Merger
Agreement,  a number of shareholder lawsuits were filed against the Company, its
directors and VHI (note11).

Note 10 - Accrued Contract Losses

         On February 1, 1995,  the Company's  HPI  subsidiary  began  performing
under a contract  with the State of New Jersey to provide unit dose  medications
to the state's  hospital  system.  The Company has estimated  that it will incur
losses over the three year term of the contract,  and has accrued $6,480,000 and
$9,621,000  at June 30,  1995 and  March 31,  1995,  respectively.  The  Company
evaluates the adequacy of this accrual on an ongoing basis.

 Note 11 - Legal proceedings

         The  Securities   and  Exchange   Commission  is  conducting  a  formal
investigation into the adequacy of the Company's  financial  disclosures,  books
and records,  and internal  accounting  controls,  including whether  Diagnostek
overstated its assets and income in its financial statements for the fiscal year
ended  March 31,  1992 and the  quarter  ended  June 30,  1992.  Diagnostek  has
cooperated fully in connection with this  investigation.  Diagnostek has reached
an  agreement in principle  with the Staff of the  Commission  pursuant to which
Diagnostek will consent, without admitting or denying the Commission's findings,
to a Commission  order  directing  Diagnostek to cease and desist from violating
certain  antifraud  provisions  of  the  federal  securities  laws,   provisions
requiring accurate periodic filing with the Commission, and provisions requiring
Diagnostek  to  maintain  accurate  financial  records and  adequate  systems of
internal accounting  control.  Similar agreements in principle have been reached
between the Commission  staff and a former officer of Diagnostek and an employee
of its HCS  subsidiary.  The  agreements  in  principle  are  subject to further
consideration  by Diagnostek and the Commission  staff of the precise terms of a
proposed  order.  Any such  order  will be  effective  only if  approved  by the
Commission,   and  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  such  approval  will  be
forthcoming.

         On July 11,  1994,  a  purported  shareholder  class  action  was filed
against  Diagnostek  and various of its officers  and  directors.  The action is
pending in the United States District Court for the District of New Mexico.  The
plaintiffs  have  asserted  violations  of the  Exchange  Act and common law, on
account of the alleged  artificial  inflation in the market price of  Diagnostek
Common Stock by reason of various alleged  misrepresentaions and omissions.  The
plaintiffs  have also alleged that the defendants  concealed from the public the
circumstances  leading to the termination of CIGNA's  contractual  relationships
with  Diagnostek.  The plaintiffs  recently have expanded the allegations in the
complaint to assert that Diagnostek misrepresented the anticipated revenues from
a CHAMPUS contract with the Department of Defense and to extend the class period
from  July 6,  1994 to March  24,  1995.  Although  Diagnostek  has  denied  any
liability  and is  vigorously  defending  the  litigation,  Diagnostek  has  not
established  a  reserve  with  respect  to such  litigation  and there can be no
assurance that the outcome of this litigation will not have a materially adverse
effect on the Company.

         Promptly  after  the  announcement  of  the  execution  of  the  Merger
Agreement (note 2) 11 stockholder  class action lawsuits were filed in the Court
of Chancery  of the State of  Delaware  against  Diagnostek,  and its  directors
asserting  that the value of the  consideration  to be  received  by  Diagnostek
stockholders  is  unfair  and  grossly  inadequate  and  that the  directors  of
Diagnostek breached their fiduciary duties to Diagnostek stockholders by failing
to take steps to maximize stockholder value. The suits seek, among other things,
to enjoin the Merger,  to compel the directors of  Diagnostek to reconsider  the
Exchange Ratio and to recover unspecified damages. Diagnostek and the individual
defendants intend to vigorously defend these claims based upon their belief that
the  actions of  Diagnostek  and its  directors  in  connection  with the Merger
Agreement were  appropriately  taken under applicable law and that the Merger is
fair to and in the best  interests of  Diagnostek's  stockholders.  VHI has been
named as a  defendant  in  certain of these  actions  for  allegedly  aiding and
abetting in the alledged breaches of fiduciary duty by the Diagnostek directors.
The plaintiffs have served a document production request upon the defendants, to
which the defendants have submitted written  responses.  Diagnostek has filed an
answer denying the principal allegations of the complaint. As of August 4, 1995,
no further  action has been taken by either the  plaintiffs  or the  defendants,
although counsel  representing the plaintiffs have suggested that the actions be
consolidated and captioned "In Re: Diagnostek, Inc. Shareholders Litigation."

                       Diagnostek, Inc. and Subsidiaries
             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

         There are  extensive  state and Federal  regulations  applicable to the
practice  of  pharmacy  and,  since  sanctions  may be imposed  for  violations,
compliance is a significant operational requirement for the Company.  Management
believes that the Company and its  subsidiaries  are in  substantial  compliance
with all existing statutes and regulations  materially  affecting the conduct of
its business. Various federal and state pharmacy associations and some boards of
pharmacy have attempted to promote laws or  regulations  directed at restricting
the  activities of mail service  pharmacies,  to the economic  benefit of retail
pharmacies.  In addition,  a number of states have laws or regulations which, if
successfully enforced,  would effectively limit some of the financial incentives
available  to  third-party  payors that offer  managed  care  prescription  drug
programs.  To the extent such laws or regulations  are found to be applicable to
the Company,  there is no assurance the Company could comply,  and noncompliance
could adversely affect the Company's integrated pharmacy service programs.

         Diagnostek  and its  subsidiaries  are  subject to  various  claims and
lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, none of which are material.

Results of Operations

Consolidated Operations

Three months ended June 30, 1995 compared with three months ended June 30, 1994

         Consolidated revenues totaled $182.9 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1995, an increase of $16.4 million,  or 10% from the comparable  period
last year. Increase was attributable primarily to the expansion of the Company's
integrated  pharmacy  service  business  ($35.4 million)  partially  offset by a
decrease in the Company's managed care pharmacy service business ($18.7 million)
(See Managed Care Pharmacy Management Operations below).

         Consolidated operating income totaled $8.4 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1995, an increase of $1.8 million from the comparable  prior year
period.  Increase in operating  income was  attributable  primarily to increased
volume and improved  product  margins  ($2.1  million)  derived  mainly from the
Company's integrated pharmacy service segment offset by higher selling,  general
and administrative expenses ($0.3 million).

         Consolidated  net earnings  totaled $5.4  million,  an increase of $1.2
million from the comparable period last year.  Increase was attributable  mainly
to higher  operating  income ($1.8  million)  offset by increased  tax provision
($0.8 million).

         Net  earnings of $ 0.21 per share were $ 0.04 higher than last year due
mainly to higher net earnings.

Integrated Pharmacy Service Operations

Three months ended June 30, 1995 compared with three months ended  June 30, 1994

         Integrated  Pharmacy  Service  revenues  totaled $156.8 million for the
three  months  ended  June  30,  1995 an  increase  of  $35.4  million  from the
comparable prior year quarter.

         Integrated  Pharmacy Service  operating income totaled $9.3 million for
the three  months  ended June 30,  1994,  an increase of $3.7  million from last
year.  Operating income increase was attributable  primarily to increased volume
and higher  product  margins ($4.6  million)  offset  partly by higher  selling,
general and administrative costs ($0.9 million).


Managed Care Pharmacy Management Operations

Three months ended June 30, 1995 compared with three months ended  June 30, 1994

         Managed Care  Pharmacy  revenues  totaled  $25.1  million for the three
months ended June 30,  1995,  a decrease of $18.7  million from last year due to
the termination of pharmacy  service  contracts in support of CIGNA managed care
plans in New Mexico and  Arizona  in  September  of 1994,  offset  partially  by
revenues  associated  with the  Company's  contract with the State of New Jersey
($4.8 million) which began in February 1995.

         Managed Care  Pharmacy  operating  income  totaled $1.7 million for the
three  months  ended June 30,  1995,  a decrease of $2.1  million from last year
primarily due to the loss of CIGNA contracts and  renewal/renegotiation of other
contracts,  with no offsetting  operating income being generated by the State of
New Jersey contract.


Impact of Suppliers and Inflation

         The Company has contracts with over 51,000 retail pharmacies to provide
point-of-service  retail  prescription  dispensing  in support of the  Company's
RxChoice(c)  integrated  product line.  These  contracts  generally  provide for
reimbursement  to the  contracted  retail  pharmacy  at  prices  specified  as a
discount to published average wholesale product cost.

         The Company  also stocks over 4,500 brand name and generic  medications
at its mail  pharmacy  service  dispensing  facilities,  in varying  dosages and
dosage  forms.  Prescription  requests  for  unstocked  items are  obtained,  as
required, from wholesalers.

         Diagnostek  purchases  pharmaceuticals  directly from manufacturers and
wholesalers,  generally  in high  volume and at a discount,  resulting  in lower
costs than  available to smaller  purchasers.  The Company is not dependent upon
any one supplier.

         The  Company  in  certain  of its  managed  care  contracts,  purchases
pharmaceutical  products on behalf of its  customers  utilizing  its  customer's
purchase agreements with suppliers. Under the terms of its mail service contract
with the Department of Defense ("DoD") in support of CHAMPUS benefit programs in
six  states,  the  Company  also  purchases  pharmaceutical  products  for  mail
distribution to eligible beneficiaries utilizing Government contract prices.

                           and Results of Operations


         The  Company  receives a  significant  amount of  rebates  based on the
purchase of pharmaceuticals  from numerous suppliers.  These rebates,  which are
shared with  customers on a  contractual  basis,  are  generally due the Company
based  on the  purchase  of  specified  volume  levels  of  various  name  brand
pharmaceuticals,  changes in relative  market share, or through the placement of
certain  pharmaceuticals on a drug formulary. At this time, rebate practices are
being  reviewed  within the  pharmaceutical  industry  as they relate to overall
pricing  strategies.  The Company  continues to  aggressively  negotiate  rebate
agreements  and believes  that any change in rebate  practices  would be part of
changes in overall  pharmaceutical  pricing  methods.  Any such change in rebate
practices or customer contract sharing arrangements could have an adverse affect
on the Company's operating margin.

         Availability  and  price  of  pharmaceuticals  are  subject  to  market
conditions.  Cost  increases  can affect the Company's  cost of sales;  however,
increases  in  purchased  drug costs are,  in the case of certain  managed  care
pharmacy  contracts  and for the vast majority of  integrated  pharmacy  service
contracts,  recoverable from clients under periodic rate adjustment  contractual
clauses.  To the extent the Company has entered into  risk/reward  ("capitated")
contracts based on the Company's  ability to control  pharmaceutical  dispensing
patterns,  operating  results could be effected to a greater degree by drug cost
inflation.  Historically,  inflation  has not  materially  affected the Company.
During  fiscal  1995  and  future  periods,  a  significant  number  of  patents
protecting  high volume brand  medications  are  scheduled to expire which could
result in the  availability  of lower  cost  generic  equivalent  products.  The
Company has not forecast the impact that might result from the  introduction  of
these generic products,  however,  pharmaceutical costs might decrease in future
periods.


Financial Resources and Liquidity

         Diagnostek's  working  capital  and  liquidity   requirements  for  its
existing  operations have historically been met mainly from cash flows generated
from operations.

         Cash flows from  operations  for the three  months  ended June 30, 1995
totaled  approximately  $12.2  million,  an increase of $25.2  million  from the
comparable  period last year.  Increase was primarily  due to improved  earnings
($1.2 million),  lack of counterpart to prior year payment of accrued settlement
costs($8.0  million) and changes in inventory,  trade receivables,  and accounts
payable versus prior year amounts.

         Diagnostek's  capital  expenditures  totaled $0.7 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1995 compared with $1.7 million for the  comparable  prior
year period.

          On December 22, 1994, the Company  obtained a $25.0 million  unsecured
line of credit  with Bank of  America  Illinois  NA  ("Bank  of  America").  The
agreement has a two year term,  with two one year renewal periods and requires a
0.25%  annual  facility  fee  as  well  as  compliance  with  certain  financial
covenants,  all of which the Company complied with at June 30, 1995.  Borrowings
under the  agreement  require  interest  at rates  equal to prime or 0.375% over
LIBOR, at the Company's  option. At June 30, 1995, the Company had borrowed $5.0
million under the agreement .

         The Company has a $30 million term loan,  with  outstanding  balance of
$12.0  million  at June 30,  1995,  from  Metropolitan  Life  Insurance  Company
("Metropolitan").  The loan bears interest, payable semi-annually,  at a rate of
10.02%. Principal repayments of $6.0 million per year are payable each December.
The Company expects to make these payments from operating cash flows.

         In  connection  with the  closing of the  Merger,  Bank of America  and
Metropolitan  may  require  the Company to prepay the amounts due under the loan
within sixty days.

         The Company has purchased insurance  policies,  customary in the retail
pharmacy industry,  including product liability  coverage,  of a type and amount
which  management  deems  adequate.  The  Company is not  licensed  to  practice
medicine and, as a result, is unable to obtain medical malpractice coverage. The
Company requires all users (including  radiologists,  hospitals,  or health care
providers) of its owned medical  imaging  facility to both maintain  malpractice
liability  coverage and indemnify the Company  against all claims that may arise
from  the use of its  equipment.  Diagnostek  also  maintains  various  forms of
traditional business liability coverage.

                                    Part II

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         On July 11, 1994, a purported shareholder class action was filed in the
United States District Court for the District of New Mexico against  Diagnostek,
its  Chairman  and Chief  Executive  Officer;  General  Counsel,  Secretary  and
Director;  President;  and a Vice President. The plaintiffs have named two class
representatives:  Irwin Bash (allegedly  owning 200 shares of Diagnostek  Common
Stock) and Leykin,  Hyman and Bash Associates  (allegedly owning 1,000 shares of
Diagnostek Common Stock).

         On July 7, 1994,  Diagnostek  announced  that it had agreed  with CIGNA
that  Diagnostek's  pharmacy  service  contracts  in  support  of CIGNA  managed
healthcare  plans in New Mexico and Arizona would be  terminated.  The agreement
was reached after Diagnostek  received  correspondence  dated June 30, 1994 from
CIGNA  giving  notice of  termination  of the  CIGNA  contracts.  The  notice of
termination  stated that the contracts were being terminated  because of certain
instances of  inappropriate  purchases by  Diagnostek  of drugs (under the CIGNA
contracts)  from  three  manufacturers,  which  were  ultimately  used for other
Diagnostek  customers.  These  contracts,  which had been awarded to  Diagnostek
during 1991 and1992,  had  originally  been scheduled to expire at various times
commencing in July 1995.  Diagnostek's revenues from the CIGNA contracts for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1994 were $80.7 million.

         In their original Complaint, the plaintiffs have alleged that the named
defendants  pursued a "scheme  and course of  conduct"  to inflate  Diagnostek's
reported  earnings  through the  concealment  of specific  facts  underlying the
termination of the CIGNA  contracts.  On December 30, 1994, the plaintiffs filed
their  First  Amended  Complaint  which set forth  additional  alleged  facts in
support of the claims in the original Complaint.  The defendants in their Answer
to Plaintiffs' First Amended Complaint  asserted that they had taken appropriate
remedial steps to rectify the situation,  believed in good faith that the matter
would be resolved  and did not foresee  that the  contract  would be  terminated
since at no time during the period that Diagnostek was effecting  remedial steps
did CIGNA  communicate its intention to terminate the contracts.  The defendants
have raised in their Answer the general  defenses that they did not at any time,
deceive,  manipulate or defraud the plaintiffs or any other person regarding the
CIGNA  contract and that all  disclosures  required by law  pertaining  to these
contracts were made at all appropriate  times by the defendants.  The defendants
have also  asserted,  among other things,  that the plaintiffs did not rely upon
any statement, act or omission of the defendants in purchasing Diagnostek Common
Stock, and that any changes in the market price of Diagnostek  Common Stock were
due  to  factors  other  than  the  misrepresentations  allegedly  made  by  the
defendants.

         On April 11, 1995,  the  plaintiffs  filed a Second  Amended  Complaint
alleging that the defendants made further  misrepresentations in a press release
and certain filings with the SEC regarding the anticipated annual revenues to be
received in connection with a Department of Defense CHAMPUS  contract awarded in
July 1994. The Second Amended Complaint also extended the requested class period
from July 6, 1994 to March 24, 1995.

         The Second  Amended  Complaint  asserts  that the  defendants  violated
federal securities laws (including Section 10(b) of the Securities  Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended and Rule 10(b)(5) promulgated  thereunder,  and prohibitions
on insider  trading),  and that the defendants'  actions  constitute  common law
fraud and/or negligent  misrepresentation.  The plaintiffs seek monetary damages
for  the  losses  suffered  as  a  result  of  the  alleged  misrepresentations,
disgorgement  of  alleged  insider  trading  profits  and an award of costs  and
expenses  incurred in the filing of their actions,  including  attorneys'  fees,
accountants' fees and experts' fees.

         On May 18, 1995, the defendants  filed a Motion to Dismiss  Plaintiffs'
Second Amended Complaint  asserting that the plaintiffs'  allegations  regarding
the CHAMPUS  contract are wholly  speculative,  without a factual basis and that
the additional  claims were filed purely for harassment  purposes.  In the event
that the defendants'  Motion to Dismiss  Plaintiffs' Second Amended Complaint is
not successful, the defendants expect to file an Answer raising the same general
defenses that were raised in response to the First Amended Complaint.

                        Diagnostek Inc. and Subsidiaries


         On May 26, 1995, the plaintiffs filed a motion seeking certification of
a class consisting of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired Diagnostek
Common Stock during the period from April 28, 1994 through  March 24, 1995,  but
excluding  defendants and certain others associated with defendants.  Defendants
have sought discovery on class issues, and, on June 12, 1995, defendants filed a
response in opposition to the motion for class certification.  Both parties also
have filed motions directed to various discovery issues.

         During  July  1995,  a  number  of  depositions  were  taken  from  the
plaintiffs  and  defendants.  On August 8, 1995,  defendants  filed a motion for
summary judgement.

         Diagnostek  has denied any liability  and is  vigorously  defending the
litigation.  Diagnostek  has not  established  a reserve  with  respect  to such
litigation.  There can be no assurance that the outcome of this  litigation will
not have a materially adverse effect on the Company.

         Promptly  after  the  announcement  of  the  execution  of  the  Merger
Agreement,  11  stockholder  class  action  lawsuits  were filed in the Court of
Chancery in the State of Delaware against Diagnostek and its directors asserting
that the value of the consideration to be received by Diagnostek stockholders is
unfair and grossly  inadequate  and that the  directors of  Diagnostek  breached
their  fiduciary  duties to Diagnostek  stockholders by failing to take steps to
maximize  stockholder  value. The suits seek, among other things,  to enjoin the
Merger,  to compel the directors of Diagnostek to reconsider  the Exchange Ratio
and to recover  unspecified  damages.  Diagnostek and the individual  defendants
intend to  vigorously  defend  these  claims  based upon their  belief  that the
actions of Diagnostek and its directors in connection with the Merger  Agreement
were appropriately taken under applicable law and that the Merger is fair to and
in the best  interest  of  Diagnostek's  stockholders.  VHI has been  named as a
defendant in certain of these actions for  allegedly  aiding and abetting in the
alleged breaches of fiduciary duty by Diagnostek directors.  The plaintiffs have
served  a  document  production  request  upon  the  defendants,  to  which  the
defendants  have  submitted  written  responses.  Diagnostek has filed an Answer
denying the principal  allegations  of the  Complaint.  As of August 4, 1995, no
further  action  has been  taken by either  the  plaintiffs  or the  defendants,
although  counsel  representing the plaintiff have suggested that the actions be
consolidated and captioned "In Re: Diagnostek, Inc. Shareholders Litigation".

         In addition,  the Commission is conducting a formal  investigation into
the adequacy of  Diagnostek's,  financial  disclosures,  books and records,  and
internal accounting controls, including whether Diagnostek overstated its assets
and income in its financial  statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1992
and the  quarter  ended  June  30,  1992.  Diagnostek  has  cooperated  fully in
connection  with this  investigation.  Diagnostek  has reached an  agreement  in
principle with the Staff of the  Commission  pursuant to which  Diagnostek  will
consent, without admitting or denying the Commission's findings, to a Commission
order directing  Diagnostek to cease and desist from violating certain antifraud
provisions  of  the  federal  securities  laws,  provisions  requiring  accurate
periodic  filings with the Commission,  and provisions  requiring  Diagnostek to
maintain accurate financial records and adequate systems of internal  accounting
control.   Similar  agreements  in  principle  have  been  reached  between  the
Commission  staff and a former  officer of Diagnostek and an employee of its HCS
subsidiary.  The agreements in principle are subject to further consideration by
Diagnostek  and the Commission  staff of the precise terms of a proposed  order.
Any such order will be effective only if approved by the  Commission,  and there
can be no assurance that such approval will be forthcoming.

         Diagnostek  and its  subsidiaries  are  subject to  various  claims and
lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, none of which are material.
