1.        The Company and Basis of Presentation

On September 23, 2014, Viveve Medical, Inc. (formerly PLC Systems, Inc.), a Yukon Territory corporation (“Viveve Medical”, the “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) completed a reverse acquisition and recapitalization pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Viveve®, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Viveve”) and PLC Systems Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). As of that date, Viveve operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company changed its name to Viveve Medical, Inc. Viveve Medical competes in the women’s health market with a focus on the Viveve System™ to improve women’s overall sexual well-being and quality of life, retained all its personnel and continues to be headquartered in Sunnyvale, California.

At the effective time of the Merger, the Company divested the ownership of its former operating subsidiaries, PLC Medical Systems, Inc. and PLC Systemas Medicos Internacionais, which will operate as independent entities going forward under new ownership.

In connection with the Merger, certain outstanding convertible bridge notes in the aggregate principal amount of $4,875,000 and related accrued interest of approximately $522,000 were extinguished.  

Additionally, warrant liabilities of Viveve for approximately $572,000 were extinguished in connection with the Merger.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, all shares of capital stock (including common and preferred stock) of Viveve owned by accredited investors were converted into 3,743,282 shares of the Company's common stock which represented approximately 62% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis. In addition, non-accredited investors of Viveve were entitled to receive approximately $16,000 in exchange for the shares of common stock of Viveve owned by such holders upon closing. Upon the closing of the Merger, an additional 943,596 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued upon the automatic conversion of a warrant issued in exchange for the cancellation of related party convertible bridge notes.

The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization effected by a share exchange. Viveve is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized. 

Concurrent with the Merger, Viveve Medical completed a private placement for total gross proceeds of approximately $6 million (including the conversion of approximately $1.5 million in outstanding convertible bridge notes). As a result, Viveve Medical issued 11,305,567 shares of common stock (which excludes an additional 101,365 shares of common stock which were not issued as a result of beneficial ownership limitations) and 5-year warrants to purchase up to 940,189 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.53 per share.
