Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 21, 2015, AxoGen Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of AxoGen, Inc.  (“AxoGen” or the “Company”), entered into a Commercial Lease with Ja-Cole, L.P. (the “New Lease”) for property located in Burleson, Texas. The New Lease supersedes and replaces a current lease with Ja-Cole. Under the terms of the New Lease, AxoGen leased an additional 2,100 square feet of warehouse space that will be combined with its current 5,400 square feet of warehouse/office space in Burleson, Texas.   The New Lease is for a three year term expiring April 21, 2018, renewable thereafter by agreement of the parties, at an annual cost of $60,000 per year.  The expanded Burleson facility will house raw material storage and product distribution and allow expansion space as required for AxoGen operations.

 

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Under an Amended and Restated Nerve Tissue Processing Agreement (the “Agreement”) with LifeNet Health, AxoGen processes and packages Avance® Nerve Graft using its employees and equipment located at LifeNet Health, Virginia Beach, Virginia.  As a result of business requirements of LifeNet Health and their need for additional space, on April 16, 2015 they notified AxoGen that it will need to transition out of the Virginia Beach facility on or before February 27, 2016 and therefore is terminating the Agreement effective February 27, 2016.   AxoGen’s planning has included the establishment of manufacturing space under its full control to meet its needs as it continues to expand its revenues. AxoGen is formalizing its plans and has sufficient time to establish new manufacturing space under its control that will meet its future needs.
