Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 3, 2016, Oxford Immunotec Ltd. (“OI Ltd.”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Oxford Immunotec Global PLC (the “Registrant”), entered into a Second Amendment to Distributorship Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Fosun Long March Medical Science Co. Ltd. and Shanghai Xin Chang Medical Device Co. Ltd. (collectively the “Distributors”). The Amendment amends the Distributorship Agreement between the parties dated October 8, 2013, as amended on April 22, 2015, pursuant to which the Distributors purchase T-SPOT®.TB test kits from OI Ltd. for distribution in China (the “Agreement”). The Agreement was originally filed as Exhibit 10.24 of our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-191737) on October 15, 2013 and as Exhibit 10.1 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10Q on August 4, 2015. The Amendment establishes the minimum purchase conditions under which OI Ltd. would provide a certain amount of product at no charge in support of the Distributors’ promotional and discount programs for 2016.

 

The descriptions of the Agreement and the Amendment are summary in nature and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full and complete terms of the Agreement and the Amendment, as applicable. The Registrant expects to file the Amendment as an exhibit to the Registrant’s next Annual Report on Form 10-K.
