Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
As previously disclosed on Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 5, 2007 and December 7, 2007, on December 3, 2007, Oracle Healthcare Acquisition Corp. (“Oracle”), PTI Acquisition Sub., Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Oracle, Precision Therapeutics, Inc. (“PTI”) and Joel P. Adams, as representative of PTI stockholders, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into PTI (the “Merger”), with PTI continuing as the surviving company of such Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oracle.
On January 24, 2008, the parties to the Merger Agreement entered into an amendment to the Merger Agreement (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, the Oracle common stock price to be used to compute the exchange ratio of Oracle common stock for PTI common stock in the Merger was fixed at $7.90 per share, rather than the average closing sales price per share of Oracle common stock for the consecutive period beginning on the thirteenth day immediately preceding the closing date of the Merger and concluding on the third trading day immediately preceding the closing date of the Merger.
This Item 1.01 contains a brief summary of the Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.
