Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Effective January 19, 2022, we entered into a non-exclusive distribution agreement with Salus Medical, LLC for our Microcyn®-based dental, dermatology, wound and eye care products for an initial term of one year, subject to two one-year extensions.

 

Further, on January 18, 2022, we entered into an exclusive license and distribution agreement with Anlicare International for certain distribution rights. Pursuant to the agreement, Anlicare will obtain the necessary licenses to distribute our Microcyn-based dental and oral products in China and Macau at its expense. Further, Anlicare agreed to pay a royalty based on the completion of certain milestones. In return, we agreed to grant Anlicare exclusive rights for selling and distributing oral and dental care under their label in China and Macau for a term of five years from the date such licenses are approved. Should Anlicare fail to secure the regulatory licenses during the two-year period, the agreement will terminate.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the agreements are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the agreements, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements related to our future activities or future events or conditions. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performances and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those risks discussed in our annual report on Form 10-K and in other documents that we file from time to time with the SEC.
