Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application

to Withdraw From Listing and

Registration; (Keithley Instruments,

Inc., Common Shares, Without Par

Value)

December 13, 1995.

Keithley Instruments, Inc.

(‘‘Company’’) has filed an application

with the Securities and Exchange

Commission (‘‘Commission’’), pursuant

to Section 12(d) of the Securities

Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) and Rule

12d2–2(d) promulgated thereunder, to

withdraw the above specified security

(‘‘Security’’) from listing and

registration on the American Stock

Exchange, Inc. (‘‘Amex’’).

The reasons alleged in the application

for withdrawing the Security from

listing and registration include the

following:

According to the Company, in

addition to being listed on the Amex,

the Security is listed on the New York

Stock Exchange, Inc. (‘‘NYSE’’). The

Security commenced trading on the

NYSE at the opening of business on

November 28, 1995 and concurrently

therewith the Security was suspended

from trading on the Amex.

In making the decision to withdraw

the Security from listing on the Amex,

the Company considered the direct and

indirect costs and expenses attendant

with maintaining the dual listing of the

security on the NYSE and on the Amex.

The Company does not see any

particular advantage in the dual trading

of the Security and believes that dual

listing would fragment the market for

the Security.

Any interested person may, on or

before January 5, 1996 submit by letter

to the Secretary of the Securities and

Exchange Commission, 450 Fifth Street,

N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts

bearing upon whether the application

has been made in accordance with the

rules of the exchanges and what terms,

if any, should be imposed by the

Commission for the protection of

investors. The Commission, based on

the information submitted to it, will

issue an order granting the application

after the date mentioned above, unless

the Commission determines to order a

hearing on the matter.

For the Commission, by the Division of

Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated

authority.

Secretary.

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application

to Withdraw From Listing and

Registration; (ReadiCare, Inc.,

Common Stock, $.01 Par Value)

December 13, 1995.

ReadiCare, Inc. (‘‘Company’’) has filed

an application with the Securities and

Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’),

pursuant to Section 12(d) of the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’)

and Rule 12d2–2(d) promulgated

thereunder, to withdraw the above

specified security (‘‘Security’’) from

listing and registration on the American

Stock Exchange, Inc. (‘‘Amex’’).

The reasons alleged in the application

for withdrawing the Security from

listing and registration include the

following:

According to the Company, its Board

of Directors unanimously approved

resolutions on October 24, 1995 to

withdraw the Security from listing on

the Amex and instead, to list the

Security on the Nasdaq National Market.

The decision of the Board followed a

lengthy review of the matter and was

based upon the belief that listing the

Security on the Nasdaq/NMS will be

more beneficial to the Company’s

stockholders than the present listing on

the Amex for the following reasons:

(a) The Company believes that the

Nasdaq/NM system of competing market

makers will result in increased visibility

and sponsorship for the Security than is

presently available on the Amex;

(b) The Company believes that the

Nasdaq/NM system will offer an

opportunity for the Company to secure

its own group of market makers and to

expand the capital base available for

trading in the Security; and

(c) The Company believes that the

firms making a market in the Security

on the Nasdaq/NM system will also be

inclined to issue research reports

concerning the Company, thereby

increasing the number of firms

providing institutional research and

advisory reports to the investment

community.

Any interested person may, on or

before January 5, 1996 submit by letter

to the Secretary of the Securities and

Exchange Commission, 450 Fifth Street,

N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts

bearing upon whether the application

has been made in accordance with the

rules of the exchanges and what terms,

if any, should be imposed by the

after the date mentioned above, unless

the Commission determines to order a
