ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On January 17, 1997, PhyCor, Inc., a Tennessee corporation
("PhyCor"), consummated the merger (the "Merger") of Straub Clinic & Hospital,
Incorporated, a Hawaii professional corporation ("Straub"), with and into
PhyCor with PhyCor being the surviving corporation, pursuant to an Amended and
Restated Agreement of Merger, dated as of October 1, 1996, by and between
PhyCor and Straub. Concurrently therewith, PhyCor of Hawaii, Inc., a Tennessee
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of PhyCor ("Sub"), entered into a
long-term service agreement (the "Service Agreement") with Straub Clinic &
Hospital, Inc., a Hawaii professional corporation ("New Straub"). The
shareholders of New Straub consist of the former shareholders of Straub. The
consideration paid by PhyCor in connection with the Merger consisted of 266,192
shares of its Common Stock. As consideration for entering into the Service
Agreement, PhyCor paid approximately $30.3 million in cash. The consideration
for the Merger and execution of the Service Agreement was determined through
arm's length negotiations between representatives of PhyCor and Straub. The
factors considered included information with respect to the financial
condition, assets, liabilities, businesses and operations of each company on
both a historical and prospective basis, including financial information
reflecting the two entities on a pro forma consolidated basis. PhyCor funded
the cash paid pursuant to the Service Agreement through borrowings under its

Straub pursuant to the terms of the Service Agreement.
