Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
In connection with the previously announced separation (the “Separation”) of SeaSpine Holdings Corporation (“SeaSpine”) from Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (“Integra” or the “Company”), the Company entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement with SeaSpine, dated as of June 30, 2015 (the “Separation Agreement”). The Separation Agreement sets forth the agreements between the Company and SeaSpine regarding the principal transactions necessary to complete the Separation and sets forth other agreements that govern certain aspects of Integra’s relationship with SeaSpine following the completion of the Separation. The Separation Agreement provides for a full and complete release and discharge of all liabilities existing or arising from any acts or events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed at or before the completion of the Separation, between or among SeaSpine or any of its affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company or any of its affiliates (other than SeaSpine), on the other hand, except as expressly set forth in the Separation Agreement. The Separation Agreement contains cross-indemnification provisions principally designed to place financial responsibility for obligations and liabilities of SeaSpine-related businesses with SeaSpine and financial responsibility for obligations and liabilities of Integra-related businesses with the Company. SeaSpine and Integra also agree, pursuant to the Separation Agreement, to provide each other with information relating to the other party or the conduct of its business prior to the separation, and information reasonably necessary to prepare financial statements and any reports or filings to be made with any governmental authority.
The foregoing description of the Separation Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of such agreement filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
