Item 1.02
|
Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On April 28, 2026, Anteris Technologies Global Corp., through its wholly owned subsidiary, Anteris Technologies
Corporation (the “Company”), notified v2vmedtech, inc. (“v2v”) of its election to discontinue additional development contributions under the Contribution and Stock Purchase Agreement
dated April 18, 2023 (the “Agreement”).
The Company’s election occurred following completion of Stage 1 and during Stage 2 of the development program contemplated by the Agreement.
Pursuant to the Agreement as a result of providing the notice referenced above:
| • |
The Company is required to pay a break fee of $400,000 to v2v, which will be used by v2v for continued development of the technology.
|
| • |
The Company has no further obligation to make additional development contributions under the Agreement.
|
| • |
The initial shareholders of v2v have the right, at their election, to either:
|
|
o |
acquire all of the Company’s equity interest in v2v for an amount equal to the Company’s aggregate contributions to date, or
|
|
o |
reduce the Company’s equity interest in v2v to a capped minority ownership percentage as specified in the Agreement.
|
v2v has not informed the Company as to which option it intends to pursue.
In addition, as a result of the termination of the Company’s obligation to make further development contributions to v2v under the Agreement, the
Development Agreement by and between the Company, dated as April 18, 2023 (the “Development Agreement”), will terminate upon the payment of the $400,000 break fee.
The Company does not expect the discontinuation of contributions under the Agreement and the termination of the Development Agreement to have a material
adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or liquidity.
