The transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are a continuation of a process previously disclosed by the Company of evaluating strategic alternatives and focusing on the Company’s rare disease therapeutic business. The Purchase Agreement includes customary terms and conditions, including an adjustment to the purchase price based on inventory and accounts receivables, and provisions that require the Company to indemnify Holdings for certain losses that it incurs as a result of a breach by the Company of its representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement and certain other matters. Proceeds from the sale are payable to the Company as follows: (1) a $720,000 payment to the Company in cash on July 18, 2017, (2) the value of outstanding accounts receivable as it is collected by NFI following July 18, 2017, payable on a monthly basis, and (3) the value of inventory as it is sold following July 18, 2017, payable on a monthly basis.
 
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of each of the parties. The Purchase Agreement contains indemnification rights in favor of Holdings following closing for (i) breaches of representations and warranties by NFI, including breaches related to organization, authorization, capitalization, title to assets, intellectual property, finders’ fees, and sufficiency of assets, (ii) breaches of any of the representations and warranties by the Company, and (iii) breaches of the covenants or agreements of the Company or NFI in the Purchase Agreement.
