Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On October 19, 2009, the registrant’s wholly-owned subsidiary, MiMedx, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with UPex Holdings, LLC (“UPex”), a design and distribution company that focuses on upper extremity orthopedic products. A copy of the Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The transactions contemplated by the Agreement closed on October 19, 2009.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company sold and UPex purchased eight patent applications and the related intellectual property that comprised the Company’s upper extremities business, Level Orthopedics (the “Acquired Intellectual Property”). The purchase price for the Acquired Intellectual Property was up to $1,030,000, payable as follows: $300,000 cash paid at closing, $100,000 by the issuance at closing of a secured promissory note, and up to $630,000 in royalty obligations.

The Secured Promissory Note is payable in monthly installments of $5,000 plus accrued interest at the rate of 3% per annum, commencing January 1, 2010, and continuing until August 1, 2011. Payment of the note is secured by a security interest in the Acquired Intellectual Property in favor of the Company.

The Agreement also provides for monthly royalty payments equal to five percent (5%) of the gross revenue received by UPex, from any sale, license or other disposition of the Acquired Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of business or from any sale, license or other disposition of any product or device that embodies any of the Acquired Intellectual Property. Royalty payments are capped at $630,000.

In conjunction with the Agreement, UPex assumed and agreed to perform all duties and responsibilities of the Company under the Consulting Agreement dated September 21, 2007, as amended, between the Company and Thomas J. Graham, M.D.
