This Amendment No. 2 relates to the common stock, $0.01 par value per share of VistaCare, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein to the "Common Stock" are to such common stock of the Issuer. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. Item 3 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: The Reporting Persons expended an aggregate of approximately $6,802,779 of its investment capital to purchase the 813,538 shares of Common Stock. Such transactions were effected in open market purchases and acquired in the ordinary course of business and are held by SAC Associates in commingled margin accounts, maintained at Goldman Sachs & Co., which may extend margin credit to the Reporting Persons as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin account, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin account are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account. The margin account may from time to time have debit balances. Since other securities are held in the margin account, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the shares of Common Stock reported herein. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. Item 5 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: (a) As of the close of business on February 14, 2008, the Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of 813,538 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 4.8% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding. The percentages used herein are based upon 16,883,927 shares of Common Stock reported to be outstanding as of February 5, 2008 by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 8, 2008. SAC Capital Advisors, SAC Capital Management and Mr. Cohen own directly no shares of Common Stock. Pursuant to investment management agreements, each of SAC Capital Advisors and SAC Capital Management hold all investment and voting power with respect to securities held by SAC Associates. By reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 of the Act, as amended, each of SAC Capital Advisors, SAC Capital Management and Mr. Cohen may be deemed to own beneficially 813,538 shares of Common Stock (constituting approximately 4.8% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding). Page 6 of 9 (b) None of the Reporting Persons has sole power to vote or direct the vote or sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares of Common Stock. (i) SAC Capital Advisors has shared power to vote or direct the vote and shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of 813,538 shares of Common Stock, constituting 4.8% of such class of securities; (ii) SAC Capital Management has shared power to vote or direct the vote and shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of 813,538 shares of Common Stock, constituting 4.8% of such class of securities; (iii) SAC Associates has shared power to vote or direct the vote and shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of 813,538 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 4.8% of such class of securities; and (iv) Steven A. Cohen has shared power to vote or direct the vote and shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of 813,538 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 4.8% of such class of securities. (c) Information concerning transactions in the shares of Common Stock effected by the Reporting Persons since the filing of the Amendment No. 1 is set forth in Schedule A hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. All of such transactions were effected in open market purchases through various brokerage entities on the Nasdaq National Market. (d) No person other than SAC Capital Advisors, SAC Capital Management, SAC Associates and Steven A. Cohen is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock directly beneficially owned by SAC Associates. (e) The Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent (5%) of the shares of Common Stock on February 14, 2008. Item 6. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. Item 6 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: Other than as described herein, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) between the Reporting Persons and any other person with respect to the securities of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons may, from time to time, enter into and dispose of cash-settled equity swaps or other similar derivative transactions with one or more counterparties that are based upon the value of shares of Common Stock, which transactions may be significant in amount. The profit, loss and/or return on such contracts may be wholly or partially dependent on the market value of the shares of Common Stock, the relative value of shares of Common Stock in comparison to one or more other financial instruments, indexes or securities, a basket or group Page 7 of 9 of securities in which shares of Common Stock may be included, or a combination of any of the foregoing. These contracts do not give the Reporting Persons direct or indirect voting, investment or dispositive control over any securities of the Issuer and do not require the counterparties thereto to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Issuer. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim any beneficial ownership in any securities that may be referenced in such contracts or that may be held from time to time by any counterparties to such contracts.
