Acquisition of Issuer’s Common Stock
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, KKR Health Care received, in exchange for its interest in Spirox, 1,405,372 shares of Common Stock and a cash payment of $16,051,218, which amount excludes additional cash consideration of $2,377,144 held in escrow and reserve that may be released to KKR Health Care in the future. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to pay additional contingent merger consideration to Spirox’s former equity holders based on the Issuer’s net revenue from sales of Spirox’s LATERA™ device, subsequent versions thereof and any other device that treats nasal valve collapse or nasal lateral wall insufficiency by increasing the mechanical strength of the nasal lateral wall through the use of a synthetic graft, evaluated annually during the four-year period following the Merger. The Issuer has the discretion to pay the contingent consideration in shares of Common Stock or cash, subject to compliance with applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and NASDAQ. A portion of the contingent consideration will be subject to certain rights of set-off for any post-closing indemnification obligations of Spirox’s former equity holders.
Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to file a resale shelf registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3 to register for resale under the Securities Act, the shares of Common Stock issued to KKR Health Care in connection with the Merger. For so long as registrable securities remain outstanding, the Issuer is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep effective any such registration statement, provided that the Issuer’s obligations in this regard shall cease five years from the original date of effectiveness of the applicable registration statement. Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, the Issuer entered into a Joinder and Release Agreement (the “Joinder Agreement”) with KKR Health Care, pursuant to which KKR Health Care agreed to join and become a party to the Merger Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and Joinder Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement and Joinder Agreement which are filed as Exhibits C and D, respectively, to this Statement and incorporated by reference herein.

The lock-up shall apply for a period of (i) three months from the date of closing of the Merger in the case of 25% of the Common Stock received in connection with the Merger, (ii) six months from the date of closing of the Merger in the case of an additional 25% of Common Stock received in connection with the Merger and (iii) 12 months in the case of the remaining Common Stock received in connection with the Merger.
