Contingently Issuable Common Stock

Contingently Issuable Common Stock

On October 27, 2010, the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Nepal Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Nellix, Inc., certain of Nellix’s stockholders named therein and Essex Woodlands Health Ventures, Inc., as representative of the former Nellix stockholders. On December 10, 2010 (the “Nellix Closing Date”), the Company completed its acquisition of Nellix, Inc., a pre-revenue, AAA medical device company. The purchase price consisted of 3.2 million of the Company's common shares, issuable to the former Nellix stockholders as of the Nellix Closing Date, then representing a value of $19.4 million. Additional payments, solely in the form of the Company's common shares (the “Contingent Payment”), will be made upon the achievement of a revenue milestone and a regulatory approval milestone (collectively, the “Nellix Milestones”).

Under the merger agreement, the ultimate value of the Contingent Payment would be determined on the date that each Nellix Milestone is achieved. The number of issuable shares would be established using an applicable per share price, which is subject to a ceiling and/or floor, resulting at the closing of the merger in a potential in a maximum of 10.2 million shares issuable upon the achievement of the Nellix Milestones. As of the Closing Date, the fair value of the Contingent Payment was estimated to be $28.2 million.

The Merger Agreement provides that, in addition to the shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) issued to the former Nellix stockholders at the closing of the Merger, the former Nellix stockholders are entitled to receive shares of the Common Stock if the Company’s sales of one of Nellix’s products (the “Nellix Product”) outside of the United States exceed $10.0 million within a certain time period following the Company’s receipt of CE mark approval for the Nellix Product (the “OUS Milestone”). The aggregate dollar value of the shares of the Common Stock to be issued upon achievement of the OUS Milestone ranged from a high of $24.0 million or 6.9 million shares to a low of $10.0 million or 1.3 million shares. The price per share of the Common Stock to be issued upon achievement of the OUS Milestone was subject to a floor of $3.50 per share and a ceiling of $7.50 per share.

On June 17, 2014, the Company announced its achievement of the OUS Milestone and the issuance of an aggregate of 2.7 million unregistered shares of the Common Stock (the “OUS Milestone Shares”), plus an amount of cash in lieu of fractional shares, to the former Nellix stockholders. The Company offered and sold the OUS Milestone Shares in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The former Nellix stockholders previously gave representations to the Company regarding their investment intent, experience, financial sophistication, access to information regarding the Company and certain other matters to support the Company’s reasonable belief that it could rely upon the foregoing exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. No underwriting discounts or commissions were or will be paid in conjunction with the issuance of the OUS Milestone Shares. The Company previously filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-171639) (the “Form S-3”) for the purpose of registering for resale shares of the Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to the Merger Agreement, including the OUS Milestone Shares. The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the Form S-3 effective on January 18, 2011.

In addition, if the Company receives approval from the FDA to sell the Nellix Product in the United States (the “PMA Milestone”), the Company will issue additional shares of the Common Stock to the former stockholders of Nellix. The dollar value of the shares of the Common Stock to be issued upon achievement of the PMA Milestone will be equal to $15.0 million (less the dollar value of certain cash payments and other deductions). The price per share of the shares of the Common Stock to be issued upon achievement of the PMA Milestone is subject to a stock price floor of $4.50 per share, but not subject to a stock price ceiling.

At December 31, 2016, the Company's stock price closed at $5.72 per share. Thus, had the PMA Milestone been achieved on December 31, 2016, the Contingent Payment would have comprised 2.0 million shares (based on the 30-day average closing stock price ending 5 days prior to the announcement), representing a value of $11.4 million.

The value of the Contingent Payment is derived using a discounted income approach model, with a range of probabilities and assumptions related to the timing and likelihood of achievement of the PMA Milestone (which include Level 3 inputs - see Note 3(e) and the Company's stock price (Level 1 input) as of the balance sheet date). These varying probabilities and assumptions and changes in the Company's stock price have required fair value adjustments of the Contingent Payment in periods subsequent to the Nellix Closing Date.

The Contingent Payment fair value will continue to be evaluated on a quarterly basis until milestone achievement occurs, or until the expiration of the "earn-out period," as defined within the Nellix purchase agreement. Adjustments to the fair value of the Contingent Payment are recognized within "other income (expense)" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

	Fair Value of Contingently Issuable Common Stock
December 31, 2015	$	14,700
Fair value adjustment of Contingent Payment for year ended December 31, 2016	(2,500		)
December 31, 2016	$	12,200

As of December 31, 2016, $12.2 million was presented in non-current liabilities due to the expected achievement of the PMA milestone in the second quarter of 2018.
