ITEM 1. CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT
On September 19, 2000, JOMED N.V., a corporation organized under the
laws of The Netherlands ("Parent"), through JOMED Acquisition Corp., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Purchaser"),
accepted for purchase 16,463,039 shares of the common stock, par value
$.001 per share (the "Shares"), of EndoSonics Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), that had been validly tendered and not
withdrawn pursuant to Purchaser's tender offer for all of the outstanding
Shares at $11.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash (the "Offer"). The
Shares purchased pursuant to the Offer constitute approximately 90.59% of
the Shares issued and outstanding and, when combined with the 268,100
Shares already owned by Parent, equal 92.07% of the Shares issued and
outstanding. The Offer was made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of August 5, 2000, by and among the
Company, Parent and Purchaser, which provides for, among other things, the
making of the Offer by Purchaser and, following the consummation of the
Offer, the merger of Purchaser with and into the Company (the "Merger"),
with the Company as the surviving corporation in the Merger.
On September 21, 2000, a Certificate of Merger was filed with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to which the Merger of
the Purchaser and the Company was consummated, as a result of which the
Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.
