On January 8, 2016, ExamWorks Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary ExamWorks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ExamWorks”), acquired ABI Document Support Services Inc., a Missouri corporation (“ABI”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of January 8, 2016 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of ExamWorks merged into ABI, resulting in ABI becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of ExamWorks.

ExamWorks financed the transaction through available cash on hand as well as proceeds from its senior secured revolving credit facility.

Cautionary Statements

The Merger Agreement has been included to provide investors with information regarding its terms.  Except for its status as a contractual document that establishes and governs the legal relations among the parties thereto with respect to the transactions described above, the Merger Agreement is not intended to be a source of factual, business or operational information about the parties.

The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties made by the parties to each other regarding certain matters.  The assertions embodied in the representations and warranties are as of specific dates and are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules that the parties have exchanged in connection with signing the Merger Agreement.  The disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties. Moreover, certain representations and warranties may not be complete or accurate as of a particular date because they are subject to a contractual standard of materiality and/or were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing certain matters as facts.  Information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.  Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts at the time they were made or otherwise.
