Item 8.01.	Other Events.	
The Company’s written supply agreements with Cardinal Health relating to TechneLite generators, Xenon, Neurolite, Cardiolite and certain other products expired in accordance with their terms on December 31, 2014.
Following extended discussions with Cardinal Health that have not resulted in a new set of written supply agreements, the Company has entered 2015 without written supply agreements. In the absence of written supply agreements, the Company will continue to offer all products to Cardinal Health, at substantially higher prices. The Company cannot predict the volumes or product mix Cardinal Health will continue to order and purchase, and such volumes and product mix may vary over time. In the absence of written supply agreements with Cardinal Health, the Company believes it is likely that future unit sales volumes will decrease from levels experienced throughout 2014. The Company also currently believes that the operating profit contribution from sales to Cardinal Health in 2015 will be generally consistent with 2014 levels due to substantially higher pricing for all products. However, ultimate future levels of net revenue and operating profit associated with Cardinal Health cannot be predicted at this time because such amounts depend on future unit sales volumes, product mix and pricing to Cardinal Health.
To assure continued availability of all the Company’s products for patients and health care practitioners, the Company will continue to make available to Cardinal Health all of the Company’s products without written supply agreements in effect, whether or not the parties eventually reach agreement on mutually-acceptable terms to new written supply agreements. The Company can give no assurance that such supply agreements will ultimately be finalized and executed.
