Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously disclosed, on May 27, 2015, Nephros, Inc. (the “Company”) received a warning letter (the “Warning Letter”) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) resulting from inspections of the Company’s facility in River Edge, New Jersey by the FDA’s New Jersey District Office that occurred in October 2014. Subsequent to that date, the Company responded to the Warning Letter and worked to resolve the issues raised by the FDA. On August 12, 2015, the Company received a subsequent letter (the “Subsequent Letter”) from the FDA noting that it had received the Company’s response correspondence to the Warning Letter detailing the Company’s completed corrective actions. The corrective actions included revisions to the Company’s standard operating procedures relating to purchasing and supplier controls, adverse event reporting, and complaint handling and monitoring. The Subsequent Letter also noted that the FDA would verify the Company’s implementation of corrective measures at its next inspection of the Company’s facility. Neither the Warning Letter nor the Subsequent Letter restricted the manufacture, production or shipment of any of the Company’s products, nor did they require the withdrawal of any product from the marketplace. In February 2016, the FDA performed another on-site inspection. There were no observations, or 483’s, cited at the conclusion of the inspection.
On April 7, 2016, the Company received a letter (the “Third Letter”) from the FDA noting that the FDA has completed its evaluation of the Company’s corrective actions in response to the Warning Letter and that, based on this evaluation, it appears that the Company has addressed the violations contained in the Warning Letter. A copy of the Third Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
