ADDITIONAL MATERIAL FOR PROXY STATEMENT
DATED MAY 21, 2010
On May 19, 2010, Michael P. Harmon, a member of the Board of Directors (the Board) of Alliance HealthCare Services, Inc. (the Company), informed the Company that his brother-in-law is a partner of Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Companys independent registered public accounting firm. Under applicable requirements of the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE), this relationship precludes Mr. Harmon from serving as an independent director.
Consequently, Mr. Harmon has resigned from his position as Chairman and as a member of the Compensation Committee of the Board and has also resigned as a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. The Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board currently are in full compliance with applicable NYSE requirements. The Board expects to appoint a new Chairman of the Compensation Committee of the Board as soon as practicable.
Mr. Harmon will continue to serve as a member of the Board and as a member of the Finance Committee of the Board.
