Our current business activities are the result of a combination of two companies with broad orthopedic product offerings in the United States and foreign countries. One of those companies, ReAble Therapeutics, Inc. (“ReAble”), was a leading manufacturer and distributor of electrotherapy products for pain therapy and rehabilitation, a broad range of clinical devices for the treatment of patients in physical therapy clinics, and a broad range of knee, hip and shoulder implant products. In 2006, ReAble was acquired by an affiliate of Blackstone Capital Partners V L.P . (“Blackstone”). The other company, DJO Opco Holdings, Inc. (“DJO Opco”), formerly named DJO Incorporated, was a leading manufacturer and distributor of orthopedic rehabilitation products, including rigid knee bracing, orthopedic soft goods, cold therapy systems, vascular systems and bone growth stimulation devices. On November 20, 2007, ReAble acquired DJO Opco through a merger transaction (the “DJO Merger”). ReAble then changed its name to DJO Incorporated (“DJO”) and continues to be owned primarily by affiliates of Blackstone. For a more detailed discussion of the merger transaction, please go there.
