Item 1.01 | Entry into Material Definitive Agreement |
On July 30, 2013, we entered into and closed an asset purchase agreement between our company and Vansen Pharma, Inc. Pursuant to the agreement we have agreed to purchase the right, title and interest to certain Spectracef® and cefditoren pivoxil products in the United States, along with related contracts, records, inventories and product registrations. Vansen will retain their right, title and interest to the products in Canada.
In consideration for the purchase of the assets, we will pay $900,000 in cash. In addition as part of a private transaction, the company will issue 3,375,000 shares to Vansen Pharma for gross proceeds of $202,500.
Vansen Pharma is a sales and marketing organization focused on specialty pharmaceutical products. With its US-based sales force the company sells its anti-infective product Spectracef(R) and its authorized generic (cefditoren pivoxil) to major wholesalers and pharmacy chains.
Vansen focuses on broad therapeutic areas which are still anticipated to grow and present an opportunity for major expansion. Vansen will grow its commercial presence by adding complimentary products through in–licensing, co-promotion and acquisitions; building a commercialized product portfolio.
In regards to the assets that we have acquired from Vansen, SPECTRACEF® and its authorized generic (cefditoren pivoxil) are effective antibiotic therapy in a patient-friendly dose pack offering convenience and promoting compliance. SPECTRACEF® (cefditoren pivoxil) tablets are indicated for treatment of mild to moderate infections in patients 12 years of age or older caused by susceptible strains of the following microorganisms:
· | Acute Bacterial Exacerbation of Chronic Bronchitis caused by Haemophilus influenzae. |
· | Community-Acquired Pneumonia caused by Haemophilus influenzae. |
· | Pharyngitis/Tonsillitis caused by Streptococcus pyogenes. |
· | Uncomplicated Skin and Skin-Structure Infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus. |
Concurrently with the agreement with Vansen, we have also entered into a private placement subscription agreement with an investor pursuant to which we have received gross proceeds of US$1,450,000 for the issuance of 3,152,174 (post 12 for one forward split) shares of our common stock, at a price of $0.46 per share on a post split basis.
Item 3.02 | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities |
Effective July 30, 2013, we issued 3,625,000 shares of common stock to Vansen, a non U.S. person (at that term as defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933), relying on Regulation S and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

In addition to the name change, our board of directors approved a forward split of our authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a one old for twelve (12) new basis, such that our authorized capital will be increased from 100,000,000 shares of common stock to 1,200,000,000 shares of common stock and, correspondingly, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock will be increased from 3,525,000 shares of common stock to 42,300,000 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001, after taking into account the issuance to Vansen referred to herein.
