The Acquisition closed on October 3, 2011 (the “Closing Date”).
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on the Closing Date, MPP acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain specified liabilities of the Sellers in exchange for (i) $80 million in cash, subject to a customary post-closing working capital adjustment, and (ii) an opportunity for the Sellers to earn additional contingent payments based upon the level of post-closing sales of certain products in development by Sellers as of the Closing Date, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Purchase Agreement (the “Acquisition”).

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification obligations of the parties as set forth therein.
