New York, Jan. 17 - Radiation Therapy Services, Inc. has scheduled a bank meeting for Jan. 24 to launch its proposed $440 million senior secured credit facility, according to a market source.

Wachovia is the lead bank on the deal.

The credit facility consists of a $60 million five-year revolver, a $340 million six-year term loan and a $40 million six-year delayed-draw term loan.

Proceeds will be used to help fund the buyout of the company by Vestar Capital Partners for $32.50 per share plus assumed debt in a deal valued at $1.1 billion.

The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2008 and is subject to shareholder approval.

Radiation Therapy is a Fort Myers, Fla., operator of radiation therapy centers.
