there were 5,907,156 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, and an

ITEM 2.  IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND OF FILING PERSON.

(A) NAME AND ADDRESS OF PERSON FILING THIS STATEMENT

     The Company's name, address and business telephone number are set forth in
Item 1(a) above, which information is incorporated herein by reference, and the
Company is the person filing this Statement.

(B) TENDER OFFER OF THE PURCHASER

     This Statement relates to the tender offer by Invivo Acquisition
Corporation f/k/a Magic Subsidiary Corporation ("Purchaser"), a Delaware
corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Intermagnetics General Corporation,
a New York corporation ("Parent"), to pay $22.00 per share net to the seller in
cash, without interest, for any and all of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to
Purchase, dated December 23, 2003, and in the related Letter of Transmittal
(which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively
constitute the "Offer"). The Offer is described in a Tender Offer Statement on
Schedule TO (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Schedule TO"),
filed by Purchaser and Parent with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC") on December 23, 2003. The Offer is made in accordance with the Agreement
and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 17, 2003, by and among Parent,
Purchaser and the Company (the "Merger Agreement").

     The Merger Agreement provides that subject to the satisfaction or waiver of
certain conditions, following completion of the Offer and in accordance with the
Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") the Purchaser will merge with and
into the Company (the "Merger"), with the Company being the surviving
corporation (the "Surviving Corporation"). At the effective time of the Merger
(the "Effective Time") each share of Common Stock shall be converted into the
right to receive $22.00 per share (other than shares owned by the Purchaser, the
Company or any stockholder of the Company who is entitled to and properly
exercises appraisal rights under Delaware law).

     The Schedule TO states that the address of Parent and Purchaser is 450 Old
Niskayuna Road, P.O. Box 461, Latham, N.Y. 12110-0461 and the telephone number
is (518) 782-1122.

ITEM 3.  PAST CONTRACTS, TRANSACTIONS, NEGOTIATIONS AND AGREEMENTS.

     Except as described in this Statement, to the knowledge of the Company as
of the date of this Statement, there are no material agreements, arrangements,
or understandings or any actual or potential conflicts of interest between the
Company or its affiliates and (a) the Company's executive officers, directors or
affiliates or (b) Parent or Purchaser or any of their executive officers,
directors or affiliates.

(A) ARRANGEMENTS WITH EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY

     Certain material agreements, arrangements or understandings between the
Company or its affiliates and certain of its directors and executive officers
are described in the Information Statement pursuant to Rule 14f-1 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Information Statement") that is attached
as Annex B to this Statement and is incorporated herein by reference.


     Some of the members of the Company's management and board of directors (the
"Board") have financial interests in the Offer that are in addition to their
interests as stockholders of the Company. The Board was aware of these interests
and considered them, among other matters, in approving the Merger Agreement.

     Existing Employment Agreements with the Company.  In July 2003, the Company
renewed employment agreements with two year terms for each of James B. Hawkins,
Stuart Baumgarten, John F. Glenn, and Brent Johnson, pursuant to which the
Company has agreed to pay a specific severance amount if the executive officer
is employed by the Company on the occurrence of a change in control, unless the
officer resigns voluntarily or is terminated with cause within 90 days following
a change of control of the Company. For Mr. Hawkins, the severance payment will
be $1,071,000, an amount equal to two times the aggregate of his annual base
salary and target bonus plus other benefits and expenses. For Mr. Baumgarten,
Mr. Glenn, and Mr. Johnson, the severance payment will be $323,000, $266,000 and
$264,000, respectively, which amounts are equal to the aggregate of each
executive officer's annual base salary and target bonus plus other benefits and
expenses. In addition to the severance payment, upon a change of control of the
Company, any unvested stock option to purchase shares of common stock of the
Company then held by the executive officer will become 100% vested and
exercisable immediately prior to such change of control. If the Company
terminates Mr. Hawkins, Mr. Glenn, Mr. Baumgarten or Mr. Johnson without just
cause, but not following a change of control of the Company, the Company has
agreed to pay such executive officer one-half of the severance payment amount
that such executive officers would have received for a termination without cause
after a change of control of the Company. These agreements further established
each executive officer's base salary and target annual bonus for the two-year
term of the agreements.

     In November 2003, the Company agreed with its director, Mr. Sarlo, that in
consideration of Mr. Sarlo's working closely with the Company's management to
evaluate strategic alternatives, the Company would pay $250,000 to Mr. Sarlo if
a transaction was completed prior to July 1, 2004. Mr. Sarlo will be entitled to
receive this fee upon a successful completion of the Offer.

     Treatment of Stock Options.  Under the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan
(the "Plan"), if there is a change of control of the Company, which would occur
upon consummation of the Offer, immediately prior to such change of control, all
outstanding stock options will become fully exercisable immediately prior to any
such event. Before the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of Common
Stock granted pursuant to the Plan may be exercised to the extent the option is
exercisable. At the Effective Time, all outstanding options granted under the
Plan or otherwise, to the extent vested and exercisable, shall be cancelled and
converted into the right to receive a cash payment per share following the
Effective Time of an amount equal to the difference between the offer price and
the per share exercise price of the option.

     Indemnification and Insurance.  The Merger Agreement further provides that
the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall contain
provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification than are set forth
in Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, which provisions shall not be
amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the
Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder
of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were directors, officers,
employees, fiduciaries or agents of the Company, unless such modification shall
be required by law. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to indemnify,
defend and hold harmless, the current and former officers, directors, employees
and agents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in their capacities as such
in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, or other
charter documents, of the Company and its subsidiaries and any agreements or
plans maintained by the Company and its subsidiaries, to the fullest extent
permitted by the terms thereof against all losses, expenses, claims, damages and
liabilities arising out of actions or omissions occurring on or prior to the
Effective Time.

     The Merger Agreement also provides that the Company shall use its
reasonable best efforts to maintain in effect for six years from the Effective
Time covering each person covered thereby immediately prior to the consummation
of the Offer the current directors' and officers' liability insurance policies
maintained by the Company covering each person covered thereby immediately prior
to the consummation of the Offer (provided that the Surviving Corporation may
substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage

                                        2


containing terms and conditions that are not materially less favorable) with
respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time; provided, however,
that in no event shall the Surviving Corporation be required to expend more than
an amount per year equal to 175% of current annual premiums paid by the Company
for such insurance (which premiums the Company has represented to Parent and
Purchaser to be $90,000 in the aggregate), and if the Surviving Corporation is
unable to obtain the full amount of insurance that is required by this
paragraph, it shall obtain as much comparable insurance for such covered persons
as possible for an annual premium equal to such maximum amount.

     Parent, Purchaser and the Company have also agreed that in the event
Purchaser or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or
assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be
the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or
merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets
to any person, then and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so
that the successors and assigns of Purchaser or the Surviving Corporation, as
the case may be, shall assume the foregoing indemnity obligations.

(B) AGREEMENTS WITH PARENT

  THE CONFIDENTIALITY LETTER AGREEMENT.

     On November 21, 2003, the Company and Parent entered into a confidentiality
letter agreement, in connection with their mutual consideration of a possible
transaction between the Company or its subsidiaries, affiliates or joint
ventures and Parent or its subsidiaries, affiliates or joint ventures. The
summary of that agreement, contained in Section 10 of the Offer to Purchase,
dated December 23, 2003, which is filed as Exhibit (d)(2) to the Schedule TO and
which is being mailed to stockholders together with this Statement, is
incorporated herein by reference.

  THE MERGER AGREEMENT.

     The summary of the Merger Agreement and the statement of the conditions of
the Offer contained in Sections 10 and 14, respectively, of the Offer to
Purchase, dated December 23, 2003, which is filed as Exhibit (a)(1) to the
Schedule TO and which is being mailed to stockholders together with this
Statement, are incorporated herein by reference. The summary and description of
the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger
Agreement, which has been filed as Exhibit (e)(1) hereto, is incorporated herein
by reference.

ITEM 4.  THE SOLICITATION OR RECOMMENDATION.

(A) RECOMMENDATION

     After careful consideration, including a thorough review of the Offer with
the Company's independent financial and legal advisors, at a meeting held on
December 17, 2003, the Board determined that each of the Offer and the Merger is
fair to, and in the best interests of, holders of Shares, has approved, adopted
and declared advisable the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated
thereby, including the Offer and the Merger (such approval and adoption having
been made in accordance with Delaware Law, including, without limitation,
Section 203 thereof), and has resolved to recommend that holders of Shares
accept the Offer and tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer.

     THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT HOLDERS OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
ACCEPT THE OFFER AND TENDER THEIR SHARES PURSUANT TO THE OFFER.

     A letter communicating the Board's recommendation to you and a press
release announcing the execution of the Merger Agreement are filed as Exhibits
(a)(2)(A) and (a)(5)(A), respectively, to this Statement and are incorporated
herein by reference.

                                        3


(B) REASONS

  (I) BACKGROUND OF THE TRANSACTION

     The Company's management has periodically explored and assessed, and
discussed with the Company's Board of Directors, a variety of strategic
alternatives, including strategies to grow the Company's business through
targeted acquisitions of other companies and assets. These strategic discussions
also included the possibility of business combinations involving the Company and
larger companies, and acquisitions of the Company by other companies,
particularly in view of the increasing competition, consolidation and other
developments within our industry.

     On June 12, 2003, Mr. Glenn H. Epstein, the Chairman of Parent's Board of
Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Parent, was introduced to, and met
with, Mr. James B. Hawkins, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company in
Pleasanton, California. At this introductory meeting, Messrs. Epstein and
Hawkins did not specifically discuss a business combination of their respective
companies.

     On July 15, 2003, Messrs. Epstein and Hawkins met again in the San
Francisco, California area. At this meeting, Mr. Epstein and Mr. Hawkins
discussed industry conditions and opportunities that might exist for their
companies to cooperate in certain sales activities, and Mr. Epstein suggested
the possibility of a potential acquisition of the Company by Parent. During this
meeting, there were no discussions pertaining to the value of the Company. Over
the next month, Messrs. Epstein and Hawkins participated in several brief
telephone conversations in which the scheduling of a follow-up meeting to be
held at Parent's headquarters in Latham, New York was discussed. Mr. Hawkins,
however, declined to confirm that he would be willing to attend such a meeting.

     On October 2, 2003, Messrs. Epstein and Hawkins discussed a proposal under
which Parent would acquire the Company. That afternoon Mr. Epstein delivered by
e-mail a non-binding letter to the Company in which he proposed that the
companies discuss Parent's making a firm offer to purchase 100% of the
outstanding shares of the Company. The letter did not specify a price for the
Company. On or about October 7, 2003, Mr. Hawkins informed Mr. Epstein via
telephone that the Company was not interested in entering into a business
combination with Parent at that time.

     On October 14, 2003 there were further telephonic discussions between
Messrs. Epstein and Hawkins regarding Parent's proposal to acquire the Company,
although neither the value of the Company nor the structure of a possible
transaction was discussed.

     On October 16, 2003, Mr. Epstein sent the following letter to Mr. Hawkins:

    James B. Hawkins
     Chief Executive Officer
     Invivo Corporation
     4900 Hopyard Road
     Suite 210
     Pleasanton, California 94588

     VIA FACSIMILE AND OVERNIGHT COURIER

     Dear Jim:

    Thank you for your timely response to our letter of October 2. While I
    understand your board's desire to avoid distraction, Intermagnetics
    continues to believe that our companies can grow faster and more
    successfully together. The strength of your leadership has had a tremendous
    impact on shareholder value. In the last twelve months, you have executed a
    successful acquisition, announced impressive growth projections and grown
    the stock price from a split-adjusted $8.00 to over $15.00 a share. We are
    prepared to build on your efforts by offering attractive value to your
    shareholders today and providing Invivo and its employees with a platform
    for sustainable growth into the future. Additionally, we are confident that
    a combined entity will provide for enhanced liquidity opportunities for your
    larger shareholders, as well as serve to attract a broader institutional
    investor base.

                                        4


    Based on Invivo's publicly available information, we are prepared to enter
    into negotiations to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Invivo at
    $19.00 per share, an attractive premium to your moving thirty (30) day
    average price. The total consideration would be approximately $140 million
    based on a share count, including all outstanding options, of about
    7,365,000 shares. Our proposed offer includes a combination of approximately
    $15 per share in cash and approximately $4 in Intermagnetics common stock,
    which would allow your shareholders to participate in the value that we
    believe will be created by combining our two companies. Even with a large
    cash component, Intermagnetics retains tremendous financial flexibility for
    use in completing the potential transaction you are currently considering.
    Given the expected challenges in structuring, closing and integrating that
    other transaction, we are confident that the combination of Intermagnetics'
    financial strength, our ability to access the capital markets and its
    corporate infrastructure, and Invivo's considerable expertise in the patient
    monitoring business creates a powerful team that would greatly enhance
    Invivo's ability to meet those challenges.

    We want the opportunity to negotiate exclusively with Invivo to reach
    agreement on a transaction that would be recommended by your Board to your
    shareholders. We are prepared to move quickly to finalize our due diligence
    review and to negotiate a mutually acceptable definitive agreement. We would
    like your Board to review this proposal promptly and to provide an
    indication of its willingness to enter into exclusive discussions with us.

    This letter and its contents are intended to be confidential, and our
    proposal shall become null and void if it is disclosed to any person other
    than Invivo's Board of Directors and its advisors with an absolute need to
    know and an obligation to maintain this information in complete confidence.

    I look forward to hearing from you to discuss what I believe is a compelling
    opportunity for our companies and their respective stakeholders.

     Yours sincerely,

     Glenn H. Epstein
     Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

     On October 17, 2003, Mr. Hawkins sent a letter to Mr. Epstein stating that
the Board would review Parent's proposal at its next regularly scheduled
meeting.

     On October 21, 2003, Mr. Epstein sent a copy of his October 16, 2003 letter
directly to Mr. Ernest Goggio, Mr. George Sarlo and Ms. Laureen DeBuono, each a
member of the Board, along with a letter explaining Parent's interest in
acquiring the Company and inviting Mr. Goggio, Mr. Sarlo and Ms. DeBuono to
contact him with any questions.

     On October 23, 2003, the Board met to evaluate Mr. Epstein's letters and
authorized Mr. Hawkins to respond to Mr. Epstein that the Board did not believe
it was in the Company's interests to engage in negotiations with Parent
regarding the proposed acquisition, that, in any event, the proposed price was
too low, and that the Company would be willing to have discussions at some time
in the future.

     On October 23, 2003, Mr. Hawkins sent a letter to Mr. Epstein. The text of
this letter is as follows:

     Glenn Epstein
     Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
     Intermagnetics General Corporation
     P.O. Box 461
     Latham, NY 12110-0461

                                        5

  Dear Glenn:

  As you know, I received your letter of October 16, 2003 proposing a business
  combination between our two companies with the support of both of our boards
  of directors. My fellow board members received your letter of October 21, 2003
  where you brought this proposal directly to their attention.

  Our board has met and carefully considered your proposal and asked me to
  reply. First, we want to make sure that you understand that Invivo is not for
  sale and our board believes that this is not an optimal time to seek to sell
  the company. In fact, we are involved with a major strategic initiative that
  we believe holds substantial promise for further value for our stockholders,
  and this process is consuming a substantial amount of our time and energy. As
  such, we do not believe it is in our stockholders' interest to pursue your
  proposed transaction at this time.

  Nonetheless, we do appreciate that you recognize the special value resulting
  from our position in the market as well as our achievements and prospects. We
  do not think that the price that you mentioned in your letter to me
  appropriately recognizes this value. While we would not support moving ahead
  with further discussions of a transaction at this time, we would be interested
  in exploring with you whether there is a meaningful prospect that we could at
  some future time identify a mutually acceptable value and time frame that
  would be in the interests of both of our companies. If you care to have this
  discussion with us, please give me a call.

  Best regards,

  James B. Hawkins
  President & CEO

     On October 31, 2003, Mr. Epstein delivered a letter to Mr. Hawkins
indicating the Parent's intention to publicly announce its proposal to acquire
the Company. The text of this letter is as follows:

  By Facsimile and Overnight Mail

  James B. Hawkins
  Chief Executive Officer
  Invivo Corporation
  4900 Hopyard Road
  Suite 210
  Pleasanton, California 94588

  Dear Jim:

  Thank you for your letter of October 23, which arrived by regular mail on
  October 27. We, however, respectfully disagree with your board's assessment
  regarding both the optimal time to actively consider the sale of Invivo
  Corporation and the value Intermagnetics has proposed for your stockholders.
  We believe that now is precisely the appropriate time for you and your board
  to actively examine Intermagnetics' very attractive proposal.

  We have taken both your past and prospective achievements into account to
  arrive at our current assessment of Invivo's value. Invivo is trading not only
  at or near its 52-week high, but also at its five-year high. This market price
  reflects the full value, as perceived by the market, for the growth you have
  promised to deliver. As you know, at $19.00 per share, Intermagnetics is
  proposing to pay an attractive premium to that value.

  Accordingly, we believe that Invivo's stockholders should be afforded the
  opportunity to achieve liquidity and fully realize this value with absolute
  certainty today, without the very tangible risks and delay associated with
  waiting for Invivo to execute, on its own, its promised growth plan.

                                        6


    Moreover, by proposing to pay the purchase price in 80% cash and 20%
    Intermagnetics' common stock in a transaction that would not require us to
    secure any additional external financing, we would be providing immediate
    liquidity to Invivo's stockholders for approximately the 30-day average cash
    value of their stock, while providing the premium in Intermagnetics' shares.
    This would give Invivo's stockholders the opportunity to either share in the
    upside potential created by a combination of our companies, or to take
    advantage of the greater liquidity that would be available to them in the
    combined public entity.

    We strongly believe that now is the time for Invivo to actively engage in
    meaningful negotiations with Intermagnetics to structure a combination of
    our companies. If our due diligence review of Invivo reveals additional
    value, we are prepared to revise our proposal to reflect such value. In
    addition, we are prepared to consider alternative structures to arrive at a
    transaction that the Invivo board ultimately believes is in the best
    interest of its stockholders.

    I first began to explore a possible combination of our companies with you in
    June and again in July and you indicated that the timing was not right.
    After a number of failed attempts to schedule additional meetings with you,
    we provided our first written indication of interest on October 2 followed
    by a second written proposal on October 16 and an appeal directly to
    Invivo's board of directors on October 21. You and your board have yet to
    respond meaningfully to any of these overtures.

    We are convinced that Invivo's stockholders deserve the opportunity to be
    able to fully consider our proposal now. Accordingly, we are prepared to
    make public our interest in Invivo.

    Please be assured that Intermagnetics and our financial and legal advisors
    stand ready to meet with you and your advisors to begin negotiations
    regarding our proposal. It would be our intent to negotiate and conduct due
    diligence on a timetable that would reasonably lead to a definitive
    agreement by year-end. Please call me directly to discuss the appropriate
    next steps in this process. I am sending by e-mail numbers at which I can be
    reached over the weekend.

     Yours sincerely,

     Glenn H. Epstein
     Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

     On November 2, 2003, the Board met and authorized Mr. Hawkins to advise
Parent that it continued to be of the position stated in Mr. Hawkins' October
23, 2003 letter.

     On November 3, 2003, Parent issued a press release announcing the proposal
to acquire the Company for $19.00 per share on the terms discussed in the
October 16, 2003 letter from Parent to the Company.

     On November 4, 2003, the Board met to discuss Parent's press release and
the Company's response. On that date, the Company issued a press release stating
that the Board unanimously rejected Parent's proposal.

     On November 8, 2003, the Company's board of directors met to discuss
preliminary financial analyses prepared by Wells Fargo Securities, LLC ("Wells
Fargo Securities"). Mr. Hawkins informed the board that he had had a telephone
conversation with Mr. Epstein, during which Mr. Epstein explained that he had
contacted a number of the Company's stockholders regarding the proposed
acquisition. The Company's board authorized Mr. Hawkins to communicate to Mr.
Epstein that the Company would be willing to have further discussions, including
the provision of non-public information to Parent, if Parent would agree to sign
a traditional confidentiality and standstill agreement.

                                        7


     On November 10, 2003, Messrs. Hawkins and Epstein participated in a
telephone call during which they discussed proceeding with negotiations. Mr.
Hawkins indicated that Parent would need to enter into a confidentiality
agreement with the Company before Parent's advisors could meet with its advisors
to discuss the Company's valuation in a possible acquisition transaction. The
Company delivered a draft confidentiality agreement to Parent.

     On November 13, 2003, Mr. Epstein delivered a letter to Mr. Hawkins
rejecting certain terms of the proposed confidentiality agreement and outlining
Parent's future negotiation objectives. The text of this letter is as follows:

    November 12, 2003

     BY OVERNIGHT MAIL

     James B. Hawkins
     Chief Executive Officer
     Invivo Corporation
     4900 Hopyard Road
     Suite 210
     Pleasanton, California 94588

     Dear Jim:

    On Monday evening we received your proposed confidentiality agreement, which
    sets forth certain restrictions Invivo would place on Intermagnetics prior
    to entering into any discussions regarding our proposal to acquire Invivo.

    Some of the proposed restrictions would preclude Intermagnetics not only
    from purchasing Invivo shares, but even from communicating directly to your
    stockholders for one year, and would apply to Intermagnetics even if Invivo
    refuses to proceed with negotiations. Clearly this is a very one-sided
    approach and is not consistent with our conversation Friday evening where
    you acknowledged that I had proposed a "logical" process for conducting
    negotiations.

    You have publicly stated three objections to entering into negotiations with
    Intermagnetics: (1) exclusivity, (2) timing and (3) value.

    I have clarified that Intermagnetics is not seeking exclusivity. I have also
    shared with you the overwhelming support I have received from Invivo's
    stockholders to commence negotiations immediately, rather than at some
    undetermined time in the future. Finally, I believe that I have made it
    clear that Intermagnetics remains willing to discuss a valuation that is
    higher than our previous proposal.

    I continue to believe that the only way to serve interests of our respective
    stockholders is for our representatives to agree on value and structure for
    the proposed transaction based on publicly available information. We would
    then both obtain board approval for the transaction subject to due
    diligence. Only after this preliminary board approval would Intermagnetics
    be prepared to enter into a confidentiality agreement and proceed with its
    due diligence review of non-public information.

    Intermagnetics recognizes that prior to commencing its due diligence review,
    it should be willing to enter into an appropriate standstill agreement. We
    do not think it is reasonable to agree to such a provision absent the
    preliminary board approval mentioned above.

    As you know, we are holding our annual shareholders meeting on November 13.
    Because I expect a number of questions regarding Invivo, and because we wish
    to continue to discuss our proposal with full and fair disclosure, we will
    be issuing a press release updating stockholders on the status of our
    discussions.

                                        8


    I hope that you are willing to continue to consider the input of your
    stockholders and commence negotiations as we have outlined in this letter.

     Yours sincerely,

     Glenn H. Epstein
     Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
     cc:  Invivo's board of directors:
        Laureen DeBuono (c/o Invivo via Airborne Express)
        Ernest Goggio (via Airborne Express)
        George Sarlo (via Airborne Express)

     On November 13, 2003 Parent also issued a press release stating its
reluctance to enter into a standstill agreement prior to the parties having
agreed in principle on price and structure of a possible transaction and
announcing it had received a financing commitment from Wachovia Bank, N.A. for
$100 million to be used in part to support Parent's proposal.

     On November 14, 2003, the Board met and authorized Mr. Hawkins to engage in
price discussions with Mr. Epstein prior to the entry into a standstill
agreement. The board also authorized the formal engagement of Wells Fargo
Securities to act as the Company's financial advisor.

     On November 14, 2003, Mr. Hawkins held a telephone conversation with Mr.
Epstein to discuss the process by which Messrs. Hawkins and Epstein might engage
in price discussions.

     On November 18, 2003, Messrs. Epstein and Hawkins participated in telephone
calls during which the business terms of the proposal were discussed. Parent
ultimately revised its proposal to one in which it would purchase all shares of
the Company for $22.00 per Share, in an all-cash transaction. Based on Parent's
revised proposal, the Company agreed to allow Parent to commence due diligence,
subject to Parent's execution of a satisfactory confidentiality agreement.

     On November 19, 2003, the Company's board met, with representatives of
Wells Fargo Securities in attendance, to discuss a proposed transaction at a
$22.00 cash price and authorized the Company to enter into a standstill
agreement with Parent and to allow Parent to conduct due diligence. Also on that
date, Parent delivered a draft due diligence request list to the Company.

     On November 20, 2003, Parent delivered a draft confidentiality letter
agreement as well as a revised draft due diligence request list to the Company.
Fenwick & West LLP and Shearman & Sterling LLP, counsel to the Company and
Parent, respectively, negotiated the terms of this agreement on November 20 and
21 and on November 21, 2003, Parent and the Company executed the confidentiality
letter agreement. See Section 10 of the Offer to Purchase.

     On November 24, 2003, Parent and the Company issued a press release
announcing their agreement to an exclusive due diligence review process and
Parent's revised proposal to purchase all shares of the Company for $22.00 per
Share, in an all-cash transaction.

     Between November 24, 2003 and December 17, 2003, Parent and its
representatives conducted Parent's due diligence investigation of the Company.

     Between December 5, 2003, when Parent delivered an initial draft of the
Merger Agreement to the Company, and December 17, 2003, representatives of
Parent and the Company and their respective financial and legal advisors
negotiated the terms of the Merger Agreement. The Board met on December 15, 2003
to review the status of negotiations and to have discussions with Fenwick & West
LLP and Wells Fargo Securities regarding the proposed agreement and plan of
merger, including the tender offer and merger structure of the proposed
transaction, and the financial aspects of the proposed transaction. The Board
met again on December 17, 2003 with Fenwick & West LLP and Wells Fargo
Securities to review the status of the transaction. At this meeting, Wells Fargo
Securities delivered its oral opinion to the Board that as of such date

                                        9


the consideration to be received in the Offer and the Merger was fair to the
Company's stockholders from a financial point of view, and on December 17, 2003
Wells Fargo Securities also delivered its written opinion to this effect.

     On December 17, 2003, Parent, Purchaser and the Company executed the Merger
Agreement, which was announced by a joint press release of Parent and the
Company prior to the opening of trading on the Nasdaq National Market on
November 18, 2003.

     On December 23, 2003, Purchaser commenced the Offer.

  (II) REASONS FOR THE RECOMMENDATION

     In reaching its recommendations described above in paragraph (a) of this
Item 4, the Board considered a number of factors, including the following:

          1. Company Operating and Financial Condition.  The Board considered
     the current and historical financial condition and results of operations of
     the Company, as well as the prospects and strategic objectives of the
     Company, including the risks involved in achieving those prospects and
     objectives, and the current and expected conditions in the industry in
     which the Company operates. A combination with Parent would, in the Board's
     view, expand the Company's opportunities.

          2. Transaction Financial Terms/Premium to Market Price.  The $22.00
     Offer represents a premium of 3.9% over the $21.18 closing price of the
     Common Shares on the Nasdaq stock market on December 16, 2003 (the last
     closing price prior to the Board meeting at which the Board approved the
     Merger Agreement), a 10.0% premium over the trading price of the Common
     Shares on the Nasdaq stock market on November 21, 2003, the last trading
     day prior to the joint announcement of the Company and Parent that Parent
     had increased the per share value of its proposal to $22.00 in cash, and a
     34.9% premium over the trading price of the Common Shares on the Nasdaq
     stock market on October 31, 2003, the last trading day prior to Parent's
     announcement of a proposed acquisition of the Company for aggregate
     consideration of $19.00 per share, consisting of $15.00 per share in cash
     and $4.00 per share in Parent's common stock. The Board considered that the
     trading prices of the Company's Common Shares had risen substantially since
     the beginning of fiscal 2004, and at October 31, 2003 was trading near the
     highest levels at which the Company's Common Shares had traded since the
     Company's initial public offering in 1987. The Board also considered and
     viewed as desirable that the form of consideration to be paid to holders of
     shares of Common Stock in the Offer and the Merger would be cash and thus
     stockholders would not be subject to the market risk that they would
     otherwise face as a result of continued investment in the Company's capital
     stock. The Board was aware that the consideration received by holders of
     shares of Common Stock in the Offer and Merger would be taxable to such
     holders for federal income tax purposes.

          3. Strategic Alternatives.  The Board considered the trends in the
     industry in which the Company operates and the strategic alternatives
     available to the Company, including the alternative to remain an
     independent public company, the possibility of acquisitions of or mergers
     with other companies in its industry, as well as the risks and
     uncertainties associated with such alternatives. The Board also took note
     of that the proposed valuations that had been suggested to the Company as a
     result of historic efforts to identify potential business combination
     partners and acquirors were substantially below $22.00 per share.

          4. Wells Fargo Securities, LLC's Fairness Opinion.  The Board
     considered the December 15, 2003 presentation as to the financial terms of
     the Offer and the Merger and the analyses supporting the opinion and the
     opinion itself of Wells Fargo Securities delivered to the Board dated
     December 17, 2003, that as of that date, based upon and subject to certain
     factors and assumptions as set forth in the written opinion, the
     consideration to be received by holders of shares of Common Stock other
     than Parent, Purchaser, any of their affiliates, and any holder seeking
     appraisal rights under Delaware law in the Offer and the Merger was fair
     from a financial point of view to such holders. A copy of the written
     opinion rendered by Wells Fargo Securities to the Board, setting forth the
     procedures followed, the matters considered, the assumptions made and
     qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken by Wells Fargo
     Securities

                                        10


     in arriving at its opinion, is attached hereto as Annex A and incorporated
     herein by reference. Stockholders are urged to read this opinion in its
     entirety. The opinion of Wells Fargo Securities was presented for the
     benefit of the Board in connection with its consideration of the Merger
     Agreement and is directed only to the fairness, from a financial point of
     view and as of the date of the opinion, of the consideration to be received
     by the holders of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Offer and the
     Merger. The opinion does not constitute a recommendation to any stockholder
     as to whether such stockholder should tender any shares of Common Stock
     pursuant to the Offer and how such stockholder should vote on the proposed
     Merger or any matter related thereto. The Board was aware that Wells Fargo
     Securities became entitled to certain fees upon the delivery of the written
     opinion, whether or not the opinion was favorable, and certain fees
     contingent upon consummation of the Offer. Wells Fargo Securities has
     consented to the inclusion of its opinion as Annex A hereto. See Item 5.
     Persons/Assets Retained, Employed, Compensated or Used.

          5. Timing of Completion.  The Board considered the anticipated timing
     for the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger
     Agreement, including the structure of the transactions as a tender offer
     for all of the shares of Common Stock followed by the Merger. The Board
     considered that the tender offer could allow stockholders to receive the
     transaction consideration earlier than in an alternative form of
     transaction. The terms of the subsequent Merger provide that common
     stockholders will receive the same consideration for their shares of Common
     Stock as received by common stockholders who tender their shares in the
     Offer.

          6. Limited Conditions to Consummation.  The Board considered that
     Parent's obligation to consummate the Offer and the Merger is subject to a
     limited number of conditions (as set forth in Section 14 of the Offer to
     Purchase), with no financing condition. The Board also considered the
     relative likelihood of obtaining required regulatory approvals for this
     transaction, and the terms of the Merger Agreement regarding the
     obligations of both companies to pursue such approvals.

          7. Alternative Transactions.  The Board engaged in exclusive
     negotiations with Parent from November 21, 2003 until the Merger Agreement
     was signed on December 17, 2003 based upon the Board's determination that
     such negotiations would likely lead to a transaction with Parent that would
     be in the best interests of the Company's stockholders. The Board
     considered the fact that the Company had to some extent been put "in play"
     since November 3, 2003 when Parent publicly announced its interest in a
     business combination with the Company at a per share price of $19.00, and
     the Company did not receive meaningful suggestions of any alternative
     transaction subsequent to that time. The Board considered that under the
     terms of the Merger Agreement, while the Company is prohibited from
     soliciting acquisition proposals from third parties, the Company may engage
     in discussions or negotiations with, and may furnish non-public information
     to, a third party that makes a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger
     Agreement) which is pending at the time the Company determines to take such
     action and the Board determines in good faith, based upon advice of outside
     counsel, that such action is required to discharge the Board's fiduciary
     duties to the Company's stockholders under Delaware Law. The Board
     considered that the terms of the Merger Agreement permit the Company,
     assuming no violation of the non-solicitation provisions of the Merger
     Agreement, to terminate the Merger Agreement to pursue a Superior Proposal
     if the Company pays Parent a $5 million termination fee. Although the Board
     was aware that these provisions of the Merger Agreement could have the
     effect of deterring third parties who might be interested in exploring an
     acquisition of the Company, the Board concluded that the effect of these
     provisions would not preclude a superior proposal to acquire the Company.
     In this regard, the Board recognized that the provisions of the Merger
     Agreement relating to termination fees and non-solicitation of acquisition
     proposals were insisted upon by Parent as a condition to entering into the
     Merger Agreement.

          8. Potential Conflicts of Interest.  The Board considered the
     interests of certain Company executives in the Offer and the Merger. See
     Item 3. Past Contracts, Transactions, Negotiations and Agreements.

                                        11


     The foregoing includes the material factors considered by the Board. In
view of its many considerations, the Board did not find it practical to, and did
not, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors
considered. In addition, individual members of the Board may have given
different weights to the various factors considered. After weighing all of these
considerations, the Board was unanimous in determining to approve the Merger
Agreement and to recommend that holders of shares of Common Stock tender their
shares in the Offer.

(C) INTENT TO TENDER

     After reasonable inquiry and to the best of the Company's knowledge, each
executive officer and director of the Company currently intends to tender all
shares of Common Stock held of record or beneficially owned by such person to
Purchaser in the Offer except for persons who would by tendering incur liability
under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

ITEM 5.  PERSONS/ASSETS RETAINED, EMPLOYED, COMPENSATED OR USED

     Wells Fargo Securities has been retained to act as the Company's financial
advisor in connection with the Offer and the Merger and to render an opinion as
to the fairness from a financial point of view to the stockholders of the
Company of the consideration to be received in the Offer and the Merger by such
holders. Pursuant to the terms of Wells Fargo Securities' engagement, the
Company has agreed to pay Wells Fargo Securities for its financial advisory
services, including (i) an initial advisory fee of $50,000 per quarter, (ii) an
opinion fee of $250,000, regardless of the conclusion contained in such opinion,
and (iii) a consummation fee of $1.95 million upon consummation of the
transaction. The advisory fee and the opinion fee will be credited against this
consummation fee. In addition, the Company has agreed to reimburse Wells Fargo
Securities for its out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred
during its engagement and to indemnify Wells Fargo Securities against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under federal securities laws, arising out of
Wells Fargo Securities' engagement.

     Wells Fargo Securities, as part of its investment banking business, is
continually engaged in the valuation of businesses and their securities in
connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, competitive
biddings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private
placements and valuations for estate, corporate and other purposes. In the
ordinary course of business, Wells Fargo Securities or its affiliates may
actively trade or hold securities of the Company or Parent for its own account
or for the accounts of customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long
or short position in such securities. In the past, an affiliate of Wells Fargo
Securities has provided the Company with general commercial banking services,
including the extension of a line of credit, unrelated to the Offer and the
Merger and has received customary fees for the rendering of those services.
Furthermore, Wells Fargo Securities and its affiliates may maintain
relationships with the Company, Parent and their respective affiliates.

     The Company has agreed to pay Roth Capital Partners, LLC $50,000 for
financial advisory services in connection with the Company's strategic
alternatives.

     Except as described above, neither the Company nor any person acting on its
behalf has or currently intends to employ, retain or compensate any person to
make solicitations or recommendations in connection with the Offer or the
Merger.

ITEM 6.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE SUBJECT COMPANY

     No transactions in the shares of Common Stock have been effected during the
past 60 days by the Company, or, to the best of the Company's knowledge, any of
the Company's directors, executive officers, affiliates or subsidiaries other
than the following sales of Common Stock by Mr. Hawkins: 20,800 shares of Common
Stock on October 31, 2003 at a price of $16.33 per share, 62,000 shares of
Common Stock on November 25, 2003 at a price of $21.31 per share and 30,000
shares of Common Stock on December 22, 2003 at a price of $21.87 per share.

                                        12


ITEM 7.  PURPOSES OF THE TRANSACTION AND PLANS OR PROPOSALS

     Except as set forth in this Statement, the Company is not currently
undertaking or engaged in any negotiation in response to the Offer that relates
to (i) a tender offer for or other acquisition of securities by or of the
Company or any other person; (ii) an extraordinary transaction, such as a merger
or reorganization, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) a
purchase, sale or transfer of a material amount of assets by the Company or any
of its subsidiaries; or (iv) any material change in the indebtedness, present
capitalization or dividend policy of the Company.

     Except as set forth in this Statement, there are no transactions, board
resolutions, agreements in principle or signed agreements in response to the
Offer, that relate to or would result in one or more of the events referred to
in the first paragraph of this item.

ITEM 8.  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

(A) PARENT'S RIGHT TO DESIGNATE PERSONS TO BE ELECTED TO THE BOARD

     The Information Statement attached as Annex B to this Statement is being
furnished in connection with the possible designation by Parent, pursuant to the
terms of the Merger Agreement, of certain persons to be elected to the Board
other than at a meeting of the Company's stockholders and is incorporated herein
by reference.

(B) DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW

     The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware.

  SHORT-FORM MERGER.

     Under Section 253 of the DGCL, if Purchaser acquires, pursuant to the Offer
(including any extension thereof) or otherwise, at least 90% of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock, Purchaser will be able to effect the Merger after
completion of the Offer without a vote of the Company's stockholders. However,
if Purchaser does not acquire at least 90% of the shares pursuant to the Offer
(including any extension thereof) or otherwise, under Section 251 of the DGCL, a
vote of the Company's stockholders will be required to adopt and approve the
Merger Agreement. As a result, the Company will also have to comply with the
Federal securities laws and regulations governing the obtaining of such
approvals. Among other things, the Company will be required to prepare and
distribute a proxy statement or information statement and as a consequence a
longer period of time will be required to effect the Merger. If all the
conditions for the Offer are met, but Purchaser receives less than 90% of the
issued and outstanding shares in the Offer, the Merger Agreement provides that
Purchaser may extend the Offer for an additional period not to exceed an
aggregate of 10 business days for the purpose of trying to obtain 90% of the
issued and outstanding shares of the Offer. However, because Purchaser and
Parent have agreed to cause all of the shares owned by them to be voted in favor
of the adoption of the Merger Agreement, approval is assured if a stockholder
vote is required.

  DELAWARE ANTI-TAKEOVER STATUTE.

     In general, Section 203 of the DGCL ("Section 203") prevents an "interested
party" (defined to include a person who owns or has the right to acquire 15% or
more of a corporation's outstanding voting stock) from engaging in a "business
combination" (defined to include mergers and certain other transactions) with a
Delaware corporation for three years following the date such person became an
interested stockholder unless, among other things, the "business combination" is
approved by the board of directors of such company prior to that date. On
December 17, 2003, the Company's Board approved the Offer and the Merger.
Accordingly, Section 203 is inapplicable to the Offer and the Merger.

  APPRAISAL RIGHTS.

     No appraisal rights are available in connection with the Offer. However, if
the Merger is consummated, persons who are holders of shares of Common Stock at
the effective time of the Merger will have certain

                                        13


rights under Section 262 of the DGCL to demand appraisal of their shares. Such
rights, if the statutory procedures are complied with, could entitle the holder
to a judicial determination of the "fair value" of the shares at the effective
time (excluding any element of value arising from the accomplishment or the
expectation of the Merger), to be paid in cash, in lieu of the Merger
Consideration of $22.00 per share of Common Stock. The value so determined could
be more or less than the $22.00 offer price.

     Appraisal rights cannot be exercised at this time. Stockholders who will be
entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the Merger will receive
additional information concerning those rights and the procedures to be followed
in order to perfect them before such stockholders have to take any action in
connection with such rights.

  OTHER LAWS AND LEGAL MATTERS.

     The Company conducts operations in a number of foreign countries. In the
event that one or more foreign laws is deemed to be applicable to the Offer,
Company and/or Purchaser may be required to file certain information to receive
the approval of the relevant foreign authority. Such government may also attempt
to impose additional conditions on the Company's operations conducted in such
countries.

(C) REGULATORY APPROVALS

  UNITED STATES ANTITRUST COMPLIANCE.

     Under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended
(the "HSR Act") and the rules that have been promulgated thereunder by the
Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC"), certain acquisition transactions may not
be consummated unless certain information has been furnished to the Antitrust
Division of the Department of Justice (the "Antitrust Division") and the FTC and
certain waiting period requirements have been satisfied. The purchase of shares
of Common Stock pursuant to the Offer is subject to such requirements.

     Pursuant to the requirements of the HSR Act, Purchaser has advised the
Company that it filed a Premerger Notification and Report Form with respect to
the Offer and Merger with the Antitrust Division and the FTC on December 22,
2003. As a result, the waiting period applicable to the purchase of shares of
Common Stock pursuant to the Offer would be scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m.,
New York City time, on January 6, 2003. However, prior to such time, the
Antitrust Division or the FTC may extend the waiting period by requesting from
Purchaser additional information or documentary material relevant to the Offer.
If a second request is made, the waiting period will be extended until 11:59
p.m., New York City time, on the tenth day after substantial compliance by
Purchaser or the Company with such request. Thereafter, such waiting period can
be extended only by court order or by agreement of the parties.

     The Antitrust Division and the FTC scrutinize the legality under the
antitrust laws of transactions such as the acquisition of shares of Common Stock
by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer. At any time before or after the consummation
of any such transactions, the Antitrust Division or the FTC could take such
action under the antitrust laws of the United States as it deems necessary or
desirable in the public interest, including seeking to enjoin the purchase of
shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Offer or seeking divestiture of the
shares so acquired or divestiture of substantial assets of Parent or the
Company. Private parties (including individual States) may also bring legal
actions under the antitrust laws of the United States. The Company does not, and
Parent has advised the Company that it does not, believe that the completion of
the Offer will result in a violation of any applicable antitrust laws. However,
there can be no assurance that a challenge to the Offer on antitrust grounds
will not be made, or if such a challenge is made, what the result will be. Under
the Merger Agreement the Company and Parent have agreed to use their reasonable
best efforts to resolve any objections that the antitrust regulators may raise
with respect to the contemplated transactions.

                                                               December 17, 2003
Members of the Board:

     We understand that Invivo Corporation (the "Company"), Intermagnetics
General Corporation ("Parent") and Magic Subsidiary Corporation (a wholly owned
subsidiary of Parent, "Purchaser") have entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger, dated as of December 17, 2003 (the "Agreement"), which will provide,
among other things, for the Offer and the Merger (as such terms are defined
below). Under the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the
Agreement, (i) Purchaser shall make a cash tender offer (the "Offer") to acquire
all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per
share, of the Company (the "Shares") for a per Share price of $22.00 (the
"Consideration"), net to the seller in cash, and (ii) following the consummation
of the Offer, Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company (the "Merger").
Pursuant to the Merger, the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of
Parent and each Share not tendered in the Offer (other than Shares held in
treasury or owned by Parent or any of its subsidiaries or as to which
dissenters' rights have been properly exercised ("Dissenting Shares")) shall be
converted into the right to receive the Consideration in cash. The terms and
conditions of the Offer and the Merger are set out more fully in the Agreement.

     You have asked us whether, in our opinion, the Consideration to be received
by the Shareholders (as such term is defined below) in the Offer and the Merger
is fair from a financial point of view and as of the date hereof to the
Shareholders. The "Shareholders" shall be defined as all holders of Shares other
than Parent, Purchaser, any affiliates of Parent or Purchaser or any holders of
Dissenting Shares.

     For purposes of this opinion we have, among other things:

          (i)   reviewed certain publicly available financial statements and
     other business and financial information of the Company;

          (ii)  reviewed certain internal financial statements and other
     financial and operating data, including certain financial forecasts and
     other forward looking information, concerning the Company prepared by the
     management of the Company;

          (iii)  reviewed with the Company certain publicly available estimates
     of research analysts relating to the Company;

          (iv)  held discussions with the management of the Company concerning
     the business, past and current operations, financial condition and future
     prospects of the Company;

          (v)   reviewed the financial terms and conditions set forth in the
     Agreement;

          (vi)  reviewed the stock price and trading history of the Shares;

          (vii)  compared the financial performance of the Company and the
     prices and trading activity of the Shares with that of certain other
     publicly traded companies comparable with the Company;

          (viii) compared the financial terms of the Offer and the Merger with
     the financial terms, to the extent publicly available, of other
     transactions that we deemed relevant;

          (ix)  prepared a discounted cash flow analysis of the Company;

          (x)  participated in discussions and negotiations among
     representatives of the Company and Parent and their financial and legal
     advisors; and

          (xi)  made such other studies and inquiries, and reviewed such other
     data, as we deemed relevant.

     In our review and analysis, and in arriving at our opinion, we have assumed
and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial and other
information provided to us (including information furnished to us orally or
otherwise discussed with us by the Company's management) or publicly available
and have neither attempted to verify, nor assumed responsibility for verifying,
any of such information. We have relied upon the assurances of the Company's
management that it is not aware of any facts that would make such information
inaccurate or misleading. Furthermore, we did not obtain or make, or assume any
responsibility for obtaining or making, any independent evaluation or appraisal
of the properties, assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of the
Company, nor were we furnished with any such evaluation or appraisal. With
respect to the financial forecasts and projections (and the assumptions and
bases therefor) for the Company that we have reviewed, we have assumed that such
forecasts and projections have been reasonably prepared in good faith on the
basis of reasonable assumptions and reflect the best currently available
estimates and judgments of the management of the Company as to the future
financial condition and performance of the Company, and we have further assumed
that such projections and forecasts will be realized in the amounts and in the
time periods currently estimated. We have assumed that the Offer and the Merger
will be consummated upon the terms set forth in the Agreement. In addition, we
have assumed that the historical financial statements of the Company reviewed by
us have been prepared and fairly presented in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

     This opinion is necessarily based upon market, economic and other
conditions as in effect on, and information made available to us as of, the date
hereof. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect the
conclusion expressed in this opinion and that we disclaim any undertaking or
obligation to advise any person of any change in any matter affecting this
opinion which may come or be brought to our attention after the date of this
opinion. Our opinion is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view
and as to the date hereof, to the Shareholders of the Consideration to be
received in the Offer and the Merger. We do not express any opinion as to any
tax or other consequences that might result from the Offer and the Merger. Our
opinion does not address the relative merits of the Offer and the Merger
compared with the other business strategies that the Company's Board of
Directors has considered or may be considering, nor does it address the decision
of the Company's Board of Directors to proceed with the Offer and the Merger.
Neither does our opinion address any legal or accounting matters, as to which we
understand that the Company obtained such advice as it deemed necessary from
qualified professionals.

     In connection with the preparation of our opinion, we were not authorized
to solicit, and did not solicit, third-parties regarding alternatives to the
Offer and the Merger.

     We are acting as financial advisor to the Company in connection with the
Offer and the Merger and will receive a fee upon the delivery of this opinion
and an additional fee contingent upon the consummation of the Offer and the
Merger. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify us for certain
liabilities that may arise out of our engagement. An affiliate of Wells Fargo
Securities, LLC has provided the Company with general commercial banking
services during the past two years, including the extension of a line of credit.
In the ordinary course of business, we may trade in the Company's securities and
Parent's securities for our own

account and the account of our customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold
a long or short position in the Company's securities or Parent's securities.

     Our opinion expressed herein is provided for the information of the Board
of Directors of the Company in connection with its evaluation of the Offer and
the Merger. Our opinion is not intended to be and does not constitute a
recommendation to any Shareholder whether or not to tender his or her Shares or,
if required, how to vote, or whether or not to take any other action, with
respect to the Offer and the Merger. This opinion may not be summarized,
described or referred to or furnished to any party except with our express prior
written consent.

     Based upon and subject to the foregoing considerations, it is our opinion
that, as of the date hereof, the Consideration to be received in the Offer and
the Merger is fair to the Shareholders from a financial point of view.

                                          Very truly yours,

 INFORMATION STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 14(F) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT
                                    OF 1934
                           AND RULE 14F-1 THEREUNDER

     This Information Statement is being mailed on or about December 23, 2003 as
part of the Solicitation/ Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (the
"Statement") of Invivo Corporation (the "Company"). You are receiving this
Information Statement in connection with the possible election of persons
designated by Intermagnetics General Corporation ("Intermagnetics") to a
majority of seats on the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company. As of
December 17, 2003, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Merger Agreement") with Intermagnetics and Invivo Acquisition Corporation f/k/a
Magic Subsidiary Corporation (the "Purchaser"), a Delaware corporation and a
wholly owned subsidiary of Intermagnetics, pursuant to which the Purchaser is
required to commence a tender offer to purchase all outstanding shares of the
Company's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), at a
price per share of $22.00, net to the seller in cash, upon the terms and
conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated December 23, 2003, and in
the related Letters of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments and
supplements thereto, collectively constitute the "Offer"). Copies of the Offer
to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal have been mailed to stockholders of
the Company and are filed as Exhibits (a)(1) and (a)(2), respectively, to the
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended from time to time, the
"Schedule TO") filed by Purchaser with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission") on December 23, 2003.

     The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the satisfaction or waiver
of certain conditions, following completion of the Offer, and in accordance with
the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), Purchaser will be merged with
and into the Company (the "Merger"). Following consummation of the Merger, the
Company will continue as the surviving corporation and will become a subsidiary
of Intermagnetics. At the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"),
each issued and outstanding share of Common Stock (other than shares owned by
the Purchaser, the Company or any stockholder who is entitled to and properly
exercises appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be converted into the right
to receive the amount in cash per share paid pursuant to the Offer.

     The Offer, the Merger, and the Merger Agreement are more fully described in
the Statement, to which this Information Statement is attached as Annex B, which
was filed by the Company with the Commission on December 23, 2003 and which is
being mailed to stockholders of the Company along with this Information
Statement.

     This Information Statement is being mailed to you in accordance with
Section 14(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") and Rule
14f-1 promulgated thereunder. The information set forth herein supplements
certain information set forth in the Statement. Information set forth herein
related to Intermagnetics, Purchaser or the Intermagnetics Designees (as defined
below) has been provided by Intermagnetics. You are urged to read this
Information Statement carefully. You are not, however, required to take any
action in connection with the matters set forth herein.

     Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser commenced the Offer on December
23, 2003. The Offer is currently scheduled to expire at 5 p.m., New York City
time, on January 23, 2004, unless Purchaser extends it.

GENERAL

     Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote. As of December
17, 2003, there were 5,907,156 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding,
and an additional 1,448,662 shares were reserved for issuance pursuant to
outstanding stock options.


RIGHTS TO DESIGNATE DIRECTORS AND INTERMAGNETICS DESIGNEES

     The information contained herein concerning Intermagnetics Designees (as
defined below) has been furnished to the Company by Intermagnetics and its
designees. Accordingly, the Company assumes no responsibility for the accuracy
or completeness of this information.

     The Merger Agreement provides that, promptly upon the purchase of and
payment for the shares of Common Stock by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer,
Purchaser will be entitled to designate such number of directors (the
"Intermagnetics Designees") on the Board, rounded up to the next whole number,
equal to the product obtained by multiplying the total number of directors on
the Board by the percentage that the number of Company Common Stock so purchased
and paid for bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock then
outstanding.

     The Merger Agreement provides that the Company will, upon request of
Purchaser, increase the size of the Board or obtain the resignations of such
number of directors as is necessary to enable the Intermagnetics Designees to be
elected to the Board and, subject to Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule
14f-1 promulgated thereunder, will cause the Intermagnetics Designees to be so
elected.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if shares of Common Stock are purchased
pursuant to the Offer, until the consummation of the Offer, there will be at
least three members of the Board who were directors on the date of the Merger
Agreement.

the individuals listed below. Each of the following individuals has consented to
serve as a director of the Company if appointed or elected. None of the

    the total number of shares covered thereby on each of the first, second,

    a risk free rate of 2.96%, an expected stock price volatility of 78%, a

    valuation is reported pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange
    Commission and there can be no assurance that the actual share value of the
    options will approximate the value ascribed by the Black-Scholes model.

(1) The value of unexercised options is calculated by multiplying the number of
    options outstanding by the difference between the option exercise price and
    the June 30, 2003 closing price of $11.61 per share of the Company's common
    stock as reported on The Nasdaq National Market.

  EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND CHANGE-OF-CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS

     In July 2003 the Company renewed employment agreements with two year terms
for each of the named executive officers pursuant to which the Company has
agreed to pay a specific severance amount if the executive officer is employed
by the Company on the occurrence of a change in control, unless the officer
resigns voluntarily or is terminated with cause within 90 days following a
change of control of the Company. For James B. Hawkins, the severance payment
will be $1,071,000, an amount equal to two times the aggregate of his annual
base salary and target bonus plus other benefits and expenses. For Stuart
Baumgarten, John F. Glenn, and Brent Johnson, the severance payment will be
$323,000, $266,000 and $264,000, respectively, which amounts are equal to the
aggregate of each executive officer's annual base salary and target bonus plus
other benefits and expenses. In addition to the severance payment, upon a change
of control of the Company, any unvested stock option to purchase shares of
common stock of the Company then held by the executive officer will become 100%
vested and exercisable immediately prior to such change of control. If the
Company terminates Mr. Hawkins, Mr. Glenn, Mr. Baumgarten or Mr. Johnson without
just cause, but not following a change of control of the Company, the Company
has agreed to pay such executive officer one-half of the severance payment
amount that such executive officers would have received for a termination
without cause after a change of control of the Company. These agreements further
established each executive officer's base salary and target annual bonus for the
two-year term of the agreements.

     In November 2003, the Company agreed with its director, Mr. Sarlo, that in

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

  COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

     The Compensation Committee currently consists of Mr. Sarlo, Mr. Goggio and
Ms. DeBuono. The Compensation Committee determines on an annual basis the cash
compensation to be paid to the Chief Executive Officer and the senior executive
officers of the Company. In doing so, the Compensation Committee is apprised of
stock option awards made to these executives by the Board of Directors.

     The Compensation Committee believes that in order for the Company to
succeed it must be able to attract and retain qualified executive officers. In
determining the type and amount of executive officer compensation, the
objectives of the Compensation Committee are to provide levels of base
compensation and bonuses that will attract and retain talented executive
officers and align their interests with the success of the Company. The
Company's executive officer compensation program is comprised of base salary, an
annual cash bonus, and stock options. The Company's compensation policies seek
to enhance the profitability of the Company and increase stockholder value.

  BASE SALARIES

     The Company's policy is to maintain base salaries competitive with salaries
paid to similarly situated executive officers in other middle market companies
(i.e. those with sales of $100 million or less) that are believed to be
comparable for compensation purposes by the Compensation Committee. Adjustments
to base compensation will generally be made based upon competitive market
conditions as well as assigned responsibility and performance as measured
against specific goals and objectives of the Company and individual employees.
The Compensation Committee has not established a particular group or listing of
generally comparable companies for this purpose and may evaluate different
companies on a year to year basis.

  BONUSES

     An integral part of the Company's compensation of senior executive officers
has been the annual payment of cash bonuses. The amount of these bonuses is
based in part on the review of compensation practices of comparably sized
companies referred to in the above paragraph. Further, the amount of bonuses in
any year is significantly dependent on the Company's operating performance
relative to its goals, as well as to other considerations that may be deemed
relevant in any given year or instance by the Compensation Committee.

  CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

     In determining the compensation of Mr. Hawkins, the Compensation Committee
evaluated Mr. Hawkins' responsibilities and performance and the overall results
of the Company to determine the total compensation paid. Mr. Hawkins' base
compensation level increased to $292,200 for fiscal 2003 as compared to $278,250
for fiscal 2002. For fiscal 2003, Mr. Hawkins received a bonus of $175,000 under
the executive bonus plan.

               (COMPARISON OF FIVE-YEAR CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURN)

     The following performance graph compares the performance of the Company's
Common Stock to the NASDAQ Stock Market (U.S.) Index and to the NASDAQ
Non-Financial Index. Given the diversity of its businesses, the Company was
unable to identify a peer group of companies based on a common business. The
graph assumes that the value of the investment in the Company's common stock and
each index was $100 at June 30, 1998 and that all dividends were reinvested.
