Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On the Closing Date, the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets, and assumption of certain operating obligations (primarily accounts payable), of Nerites, based in Madison, Wisconsin, pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement for a purchase price of approximately $20 million.

Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, approximately $17 million of the purchase price was paid for from the Company’s available cash on hand, with the approximate remaining $3 million being held back by the Company as security for certain potential indemnification obligations. The Company will release $1.5 million on each of the first and second anniversaries of the Closing date to Nerites to the extent it has not been applied toward such indemnification obligations.

The assets acquired included an adhesive-based biomaterials technology in its early development stage and consisted primarily of in-process research and development (IPR&D), trade-secrets, machinery and equipment, accounts receivable and other assets.

The foregoing description of certain terms of the Acquisition Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual provisions of the Acquisition Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference. On January 31, 2011, the Company issued a press release relating to the acquisition, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

liabilities set forth on Schedule 2.1 (the “Purchase Price”), which amount shall be payable as follows:

(a) The Buyer shall pay the Company Seventeen Million Dollars ($17,000,000) less the amount of liabilities set forth on Schedule 2.1 (which represents the cash on the Closing Balance Sheet retained by the Company and the transaction costs paid by the Company prior to the Closing) (the “Cash Payment”) in cash at Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by the Company in writing.

Each Assumed Contract is enforceable against the Company and against any third parties in accordance with its terms.

COVENANTS AFTER CLOSING

6.1 Non-Assignable Contracts, Permits or Grants. To the extent that the assignment hereunder by the Company to the Buyer of any Assumed Contract, Permits or Grants is not permitted or is not permitted without the consent of any other party to the Assumed Contract, Permit or Grant, as applicable, this Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute an assignment of any such Assumed Contract, Permit or Grant if such consent is not given or if such assignment otherwise would constitute a breach of, or cause a loss of benefits under, any such Assumed Contract, Permit or Grant, and the Buyer shall not assume any obligations or liabilities thereunder. With respect to any such Assumed Contract, Permit or Grant, and for a period of two years following the Closing Date, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to obtain such consents and shall cooperate with the Buyer in any reasonable and lawful arrangement designed to provide the Buyer with the rights and benefits (subject to the obligations) under any such Assumed Contracts, Permit or Grant. If such consents are not obtained for any such Assumed Contract, Permit or Grant during the two year period following the Closing, the Company shall no longer have any obligation to use any reasonable efforts to obtain such consent, but the Company will, so long as it shall continue to be in existence, continue to cooperate with the Buyer in any lawful arrangement to provide the Buyer with the rights and benefits of such Assumed Contract, Permit or Grant as described above.

6.2 Payment of Excluded Liabilities; Compliance with Deemed Liquidation Event Provisions.

(a) Other than as stated on Schedule 6.2, within thirty (30) days following the Closing, the Company shall pay in full and discharge all of the Excluded Liabilities in accordance with their stated terms, as applicable. All Excluded Liabilities set forth on Schedule 6.2 shall be discharged by the Company as contemplated thereon.

(b) The Company acknowledges that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement constitute a Deemed Liquidation Event (as such term is defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation). The Company shall distribute any and all consideration obtained pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. Additionally, the Company shall deliver any notices required in connection with the Deemed Liquidation Event and take all other

23

actions as required by the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation in connection therewith.

6.3 Agreements Regarding Tax Matters.

(a) After the Closing, the Company on one hand and the Buyer on the other hand (i) will promptly inform the other party in writing of any notice that it receives of any audit, investigation, request for documents or information related to Taxes that reasonably could be expected to affect the Tax liability of the other party, (ii) will each provide the other party with such assistance as may reasonably be requested in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, audit or other examination by any taxing authority or judicial or administrative proceeding relating to liability for taxes, (iii) will each retain and provide to the other party all records and other information that may be relevant to any such Tax Return, audit or examination, proceeding or determination and (iv) will each provide the other party with any final determination of any such audit or examination, proceeding or determination that affects any amount required to be shown on any Tax Return of the other party for any period. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Company and the Buyer will retain, until the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitation (including any extensions thereof), copies of all Tax Returns, supporting work schedules and other records relating to tax periods or portions thereof ending on or prior to the Closing Date.

(b) For all purposes under this Agreement involving the determination of Taxes (including the determination of the Company Taxes), in the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to any period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date, the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of the period ending on the close of the Closing Date shall be (i) in the case of Taxes that are (x) based upon or related to income or receipts, or (y) employment, social security or other similar taxes, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended on the close of the Closing Date; and (ii) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to any assets or otherwise measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on the close of the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period.

6.4 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. From and after the Closing, the Company agrees to indemnify, defend and save the Buyer, its stockholder and their respective Affiliates and Plan Affiliates, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, Employee Benefit Plans and fiduciaries, plan administrators or other parties dealing with such plans (each, a “Buyer Indemnified Party”), forever harmless from and against, and to promptly pay to a Buyer Indemnified Party or reimburse a Buyer Indemnified Party for, any and all

24

liabilities, obligations, deficiencies, demands, claims, suits, actions, or causes of action, assessments, losses, costs, expenses, interest, fines, penalties, actual or punitive damages (provided, that punitive damages shall only be applicable in cases of fraudulent conduct or willful misrepresentations) or costs or expense of any and all investigations, proceedings, judgments, environmental analysis, remediations, settlements and compromises (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other experts) (individually and collectively, the “Losses”) sustained or incurred by any Buyer Indemnified Party relating to, resulting from, arising out of or otherwise by virtue of any of the following:

(i) any inaccuracy in or misrepresentation or breach of a representation or warranty made by the Company herein or in the Company Transaction Documents, provided that for purposes of this Section 6.4, all “material adverse effect,” “material” or similar qualifiers contained herein or therein shall not be given any effect;

(ii) any non-compliance with or breach by the Company of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or the Company Transaction Documents to be performed by the Company;

(b) Indemnification by the Buyer. From and after the Closing, the Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and save the Company, its stockholders, and their respective Affiliates, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, Employee Benefit Plans and fiduciaries, plan administrators or other parties dealing with such plans (each, a “Company Indemnified Party”) forever harmless from and against, and to promptly pay to a Company Indemnified Party or reimburse a Company Indemnified Party for, any and all Losses sustained or incurred by any Company Indemnified Party relating to, resulting from, arising out of or otherwise by virtue of any of the following:

(i) any inaccuracy in or misrepresentation or breach of a representation or warranty made by the Buyer, provided that for purposes of this Section 6.4, all “material adverse effect,” “material” or similar qualifiers contained herein or therein shall not be given any effect herein or in the Buyer Transaction Documents;

25

(ii) non-compliance with or breach by the Buyer of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or the Buyer Transaction Documents to be performed by the Buyer;

(iii) any liability or obligation of the Buyer or any assertion against a Company Indemnified Party, arising out of or relating, directly or indirectly, to any of the Assumed Liabilities; and

(iv) any claim for payment of fees and/or expenses as a broker or finder in connection with the origin, negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement based upon an alleged agreement between claimant and the Buyer.

(c) Indemnification Procedure for Third Party Claims. In the event that subsequent to the Closing any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) receives notice of the assertion of any claim or of the commencement of any action or proceeding by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party, against which a party to this Agreement is required to provide indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice together with a statement of any available information describing such claim in reasonable detail (and attaching a copy of all papers served with respect to such claim) to the Indemnifying Party within fifteen (15) days after learning of such claim (or within such shorter time as may be necessary to give the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to respond to such claim) (the “Claim Notice”). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party (the “Defense Notice”) within fifteen (15) days after receipt from the Indemnified Party of notice of such claim, which notice by the Indemnifying Party shall specify the counsel it will appoint to defend such claim (“Defense Counsel”), to conduct at its expense the defense against such claim in its own name, or if necessary in the name of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve the Defense Counsel, and in the event the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party cannot agree upon such counsel within ten (10) days after the Defense Notice is provided, then the Indemnifying Party shall propose an alternate Defense Counsel, which shall be subject again to the Indemnified Party’s approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of a Third Party Claim and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (x) the Third Party Claim seeks injunctive or other equitable relief or the outcome otherwise could have an adverse effect on the Development Work, (y) the Indemnified Party, in the claim notice to the Indemnifying Party, states that, based on advice of counsel, it believes that its interests in the Third Party Claim is or can reasonably be expected to be adverse to the interests of the Indemnifying Party, or (z) such Indemnifying Party is unable to or does not provide the Indemnified Party with reasonable assurance of its ability to pay the expenses of the defense against such Third Party Claim.

(i) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall fail to give the Defense Notice within the time period described above, it shall be deemed to have elected not to conduct the defense of the subject claim, and in such event the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct such defense in good faith and to compromise and settle the claim without prior consent of the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnifying Party will

26

be liable for all costs, expenses, settlement amounts or other Losses paid or incurred in connection therewith. If the Indemnifying Party is not entitled to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim because of reasons set forth in the last sentence of the preceding paragraph, the Indemnified Party may not settle the Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, if such settlement would lead to any liability or create any other obligation of the Indemnifying Party.

(ii) In the event that the Indemnifying Party delivers a Defense Notice within the time period described above and thereby elects to conduct the defense of the subject claim, the Indemnifying Party shall diligently conduct such defense and the Indemnified Party will cooperate with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance and materials as it may reasonably request, all at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in the defense assisted by counsel of its own choosing.

(iii) The Indemnifying Party may enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim or cease to defend against such claim; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party may not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim or cease to defend against such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party if pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, (A) injunctive or other equitable relief would be imposed against the Indemnified Party, or (B) such settlement or cessation would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(iv) Any final judgment entered or settlement agreed upon in the manner provided herein shall be binding upon the Indemnifying Party, and shall conclusively be deemed to be an obligation with respect to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to prompt indemnification hereunder.

(d) Direct Claims. It is the intent of the parties hereto that all direct claims by an Indemnified Party against a party hereto not arising out of Third Party Claims shall be subject to and benefit from the terms of this Section 6.4(d). Any claim under this Section 6.4 by an Indemnified Party for indemnification other than indemnification against a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) will be asserted by giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice describing in reasonable detail the nature and amount of the claim, and the Indemnifying Party will have a period of forty-five (45) calendar days within which to satisfy such Direct Claims. If the Indemnifying Party disputes the Direct Claim asserted by the Indemnified Party, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.8 herein. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such forty-five (45) calendar day period, the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which event the Indemnified Party will be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party under this Section 6.4 or otherwise.

(e) Failure to Give Timely Notice. A failure by an Indemnified Party to give timely, complete or accurate notice as provided in Section 6.4(d) will not affect the rights or obligations of any party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any party

27

entitled to receive such notice was adversely affected, including any deprivation of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage.

(f) Survival of Representations and Warranties: Time Limits on Indemnification Obligations. All of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement or in any of the other Transaction Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions until they expire and terminate on the second anniversary of this Agreement, except that (i) (A) claims related to willful misrepresentations and fraudulent conduct and (B) the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1 (Authority) and Section 3.9(a) (Title to Assets) shall survive indefinitely and (ii) the representations and warranties that contained in Section 3.16 (Employee Benefits Plans), Section 3.26 (Taxes) and Section 3.30 (Environmental and Safety Requirements) shall survive until sixty (60) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations period (including any extensions or waivers thereof). If written notice of a claim has been given prior to the end of such applicable period, the termination date shall be extended until such claim is fully resolved.

(g) Adjustment to Purchase Price. Any indemnification received under this Section 6.4 shall be treated by the Buyer, the Company and their respective Affiliates, to the extent permitted by applicable Rules of a Governmental Authority, as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless a Final Determination causes any such amount not to constitute an adjustment to the Purchase Price for federal tax purposes. The term “Final Determination” shall mean (i) any final determination of liability in respect of a Tax that, under applicable Rules of a Governmental Authority, is not subject to further appeal, review or modification through proceedings or otherwise (including the expiration of a statute of limitations or a period for the filing of claims for refunds, amended returns or appeals from adverse determinations) or (ii) the payment of Tax by the Buyer or the Company, whichever is responsible for payment of such Tax under applicable Rules of a Governmental Authority, with respect to any item disallowed or adjusted by a taxing authority, provided that such responsible party or parties determine(s) that no action should be taken to recoup such payment and the other party agrees in writing.

(h) Indemnification Limits. The foregoing provisions of this Section 6.4 notwithstanding:

(i) the Company shall not be liable under the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 6.4(a)(i) (other than with respect to the Fundamental Representations, fraudulent conduct by the Company, or willful misrepresentations by the Company) of this Agreement until, and then only to the extent that, the aggregate amount of such indemnification obligation of the Company exceeds $200,000 (the “Basket Amount”);

(ii) the aggregate indemnification obligation of the Company pursuant to Sections 6.4(a)(i)-(v) (other than with respect to the Fundamental Representations, fraudulent conduct by the Company or willful misrepresentation by the Company) shall not be greater than the Holdback Amount and the parties agree to cause such indemnification obligations to be paid to the Buyer Indemnified Parties out of the Holdback Account, which account shall be the only source of recovery for such indemnification obligations;

28

(iii) the Company shall not be liable under the indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 6.4 for the failure to obtain an assignment or consent for any Assumed Contract listed on Schedule 3.6 or any Grant listed on Schedule 1.1(a)(ix); provided, that the Company complied with Section 6.1; and

(iv) the Buyer shall not be liable under the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 6.4(b)(i) of this Agreement after the aggregate amount of such indemnification obligation of the Buyer exceeds the Holdback Amount.

(i) Payments. With respect to any claim of an Indemnified Party or portion thereof that is not being contested by the Indemnifying Party in good faith or upon the resolution of a claim or portion thereof contested by the Indemnifying Party, payment therefor shall be made by the Indemnifying Party (subject to the proviso set forth below) (i) if the claim is not being contested, not later than thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of written notice from the Indemnified Party stating the amount of the claim or (ii) if the claim is contested, ten (10) days after the resolution of such claim; provided, however, that any claim (other than with respect to the Fundamental Representations, fraudulent conduct by the Company, or willful misrepresentations by the Company) for which the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnified Party, the Buyer shall retain the amount of such claim from the Holdback Amount and the Holdback Amount shall be decreased in a corresponding amount. Any payment required under this Section 6.4 that is not made when due shall bear interest until paid in full at the Prime Rate of interest as published in The Wall Street Journal (changing as and when such rate changes) plus four percent (4%) or, if less, the maximum rate permitted by applicable usury laws. Interest on any such unpaid amount shall be compounded monthly, computed on the basis of a 360-day year and shall be payable on demand.

(j) Investigation. The right to indemnification, payment of Losses or other remedies based on any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or any Transaction Document shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time by any Buyer Indemnified Party, or the acceptance of any certificate or opinion by any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to, the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.

(k) Exclusive Remedy. The Buyer and the Company acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnification provisions in this Section 6.4 shall be the exclusive remedy of the Buyer and the Company with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than in the case of (i) breach of any covenants, in which case the aggrieved party shall also be entitled to specific performance, and (ii) fraudulent conduct or willful misrepresentation, in which case the aggrieved party shall have any and all remedies available to it at law or in equity.

6.5 Restrictive Covenants.

(a) Company’s Acknowledgment. The Company agrees and acknowledges that it is necessary that the Company undertake not to utilize its special knowledge of the Development

29

Work and its relationships with customers and suppliers of the Company to compete with the Buyer and the Company.

(b) Non-Compete. The Company hereby agrees that for a period commencing on the Closing Date and ending five (5) years from the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), the Company will not directly or indirectly, as agent, consultant, stockholder, manager, partner or in any other capacity, own, operate, manage, control, engage in, invest in or participate in any manner in, act as a consultant or advisor to, render services for (alone or in association with any Person), or otherwise assist any Person that engages in or owns, invests in, operates, manages or controls any venture or enterprise that directly or indirectly engages or proposes to engage in Development Work anywhere in the world (the “Territory”).

(c) Non-Solicitation. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 6.5(b) above, the Company hereby agrees that during the Restricted Period it will not directly or indirectly, solicit, or participate as agent, consultant, stockholder, manager, partner or in any other capacity in any business which solicits, business from any Person which is or was a customer or supplier of Development Work during the three (3)-year period preceding the date of such solicitation, or from any successor in interest to any such Person for the purpose of securing business or contracts related to the Development Work. In addition, the Company hereby agrees that during the Restricted Period it will not directly or indirectly buy or engage in any discussions with any acquisition candidate with which the Company has engaged in discussions in the two (2)-year period preceding the Closing.

(d) Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, the Company shall keep secret and retain in strictest confidence, and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Buyer, furnish, make available or disclose to any third party or use for the benefit of the Company or any third party, any Confidential Information. As used in this Section 6.5(d), “Confidential Information” shall mean any information relating to the business or affairs of the Buyer or the Development Work, and information relating to financial statements, customer identities, potential customers, employees, suppliers, servicing methods, equipment, programs, strategies and information, analyses, profit margins or other proprietary information used by the Company or the Buyer in connection with the Development Work; provided, however, that Confidential Information shall not include any information which is in the public domain or enters the public domain through no wrongful act on the part of the Company.

(e) Interference with Relationships. During the Restricted Period, the Company shall not directly or indirectly, as agent, consultant, stockholder, manager, partner or in any other capacity without the prior written consent of the Buyer employ, or engage, recruit or solicit for employment or engagement, any Person who is employed or engaged by the Company on the date hereof and who is employed by the Buyer following the Closing, or otherwise seek to influence or alter any such Person’s relationship with the Buyer.

(f) Blue-Pencil. If any court of competent jurisdiction shall at any time deem the term of any particular restrictive covenant contained in this Section 6.5 too lengthy or the Territory too extensive, the other provisions of this Section 6.5 shall nevertheless stand, the Restricted Period shall be deemed to be the longest period permissible by law under the circumstances and the Territory shall be deemed to comprise the largest territory permissible by

30

law under the circumstances. The court in each case shall reduce the Restricted Period and/or Territory to permissible duration or size.

(g) Property Associated with the Development Work. All memoranda, notes, lists, records and other documentation or papers (and all copies thereof), including such items stored in computer memories, hard drives, portable drives, cds, dvds, microfiche or other memory devices or by any other means, which will become the Buyer’s property (after the consummation of transactions contemplated by this Agreement), shall become the Buyer’s property and shall be delivered to the Buyer promptly on the request of the Buyer.

(h) Remedies. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 6.5 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Buyer’s business interests, that irreparable injury will result to the Buyer if the Company breaches any of the terms of this Section 6.5, and that in the event of the Company’s actual or threatened breach of any of the provisions contained in this Section 6.5, the Buyer will have no adequate remedy at law. The Company accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any of the provisions contained in this Section 6.5, the Buyer shall be entitled to such injunctive and other equitable relief, without the necessity of showing actual monetary damages or posting of a bond, as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by a court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Buyer from pursuing any other remedies available to them for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of any damages which it is able to prove.

6.6 Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto agrees that subsequent to the Closing Date, upon the reasonable request of any other party hereto from time to time, it shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such further reasonable instruments and take such other commercially reasonable actions as may be necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents or to vest, perfect or confirm ownership of the Assets in the Buyer.

KENSEY NASH ACQUIRES MEDICAL ADHESIVES AND COATINGS TECHNOLOGY

Exton, PA, January 31, 2011 – Kensey Nash Corporation (NASDAQ:KNSY), today announced it has acquired the assets of privately held Nerites Corporation, a developer of medical adhesives and anti-fouling coatings based in Madison, Wisconsin for $20 million in cash. Nerites is developing a technology platform of adhesive-based biomaterials which would allow Kensey Nash to further its penetration into the regenerative medicine markets encompassing soft tissue surgical repair, orthopaedics, sports medicine, spine and neurosurgery.

Surgical sealants and adhesives have applications in most surgical procedures. Over the past several years the wound closure market has shifted from early technology such as staples or sutures to next generation technologies as they have become available, including a variety of external and internal surgical adhesives. These products address a market that encompasses over 70 million surgical wounds in the U.S. alone. By 2015, the U.S. medical adhesive and sealant markets are projected to be over $1 billion.

In addition to possible new surgical sealant and adhesive products, Kensey Nash intends to develop and integrate the acquired adhesive, sealant, and coating technologies into its regenerative biomaterials business. The Company believes that access to this technology will enable the Company to develop a portfolio of next generation hybrid adhesive-based products that integrate its ECM, collagen and polymer technology platforms for applications in general, neurologic, plastic/reconstructive, orthopaedic, urologic, cardiovascular and thoracic surgical specialties. Initial product targets include devices for repairing defects in abdominal walls, dural membranes, and gastrointestinal tracts. Revenue from product sales is not expected for at least three to five years.

The Company also intends to explore applications of the Nerites antifouling technology for preventing bacterial biofilm formation. Biofilms form when microorganisms attach to implanted medical devices, forming a biological film coating which can interrupt the healing process and result in infection. It is estimated that device-related biofilm infections increase hospital stays and add over one billion dollars per year to U.S. hospitalization costs.

Though the accounting for this transaction has not been finalized, the Company currently expects to account for this transaction as an asset acquisition, with a significant portion of the purchase price expensed in the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2011 as in-process research and development. The acquisition is expected to be dilutive to earnings by approximately $0.02 per share in the second half of fiscal 2011 (excluding any in-process R&D charges and acquisition costs). The Company currently expects that in fiscal 2012, the acquisition will have a neutral impact on earnings, as any R&D spending on the Nerites technology will be reallocated from other projects.

“We are very excited about this acquisition,” commented Joseph W. Kaufmann, President and CEO of Kensey Nash Corporation. “The Nerites’ technology will integrate well with Kensey Nash’s existing biomaterial capabilities and technologies, providing many opportunities for next generation products currently in the market and expanding our development pipeline as well as opportunities for additional strategic partnerships. We will initially target the hernia and dura repair markets,” he concluded.

“We are very pleased with this transaction and the commitment Kensey Nash is making to broadly commercialize products based on our technology,” commented Shaun C. Lonergan, President and CEO of Nerites Corporation. “We are proud of our Madison team and excited about the impact this technology can have on improving the practice of medicine. We believe the expertise and resources Kensey Nash brings to the table will really enhance that opportunity,” he added.

The Nerites’ technology is inspired by the proteins secreted by marine mussels for bonding to underwater surfaces. Research conducted on these adhesive proteins by Phillip Messersmith, Ph.D., of Northwestern University identified the key components believed to be primarily responsible for the adhesive properties. Synthetic versions of these key components have been developed to create biomaterials capable of binding to tissue and other materials in aqueous surgical environments. Nerites has funded their activities through $11 million from venture capital and private investors, as well as an additional $5 million in NIH and NSF Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grants.
