Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On April 3, 2019, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, MTBC-Med, Inc., closed on the acquisition of Etransmedia Technology, Inc. (“ETI”) and entered into an Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”), pursuant to which the purchase price was increased from $1.5 million to $1.6 million, using the retroactive closing date of April 1, 2019. As previously disclosed, on March 27, 2019, the parties entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with ETI, several subsidiaries of ETI and Formativ Health Management, Inc., the parent company of ETI (collectively with ETI and subsidiaries, the “Sellers”).

 

The Sellers are engaged in the business of providing medical billing, practice management, credentialing, transcription, record retention, and request for information and related services to hospitals, group physician practices and others in connection with medical care delivered by Part B Healthcare Providers.

 

The amended and restated APA contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including indemnification provisions capped at the purchase price, except for certain types of claims, such as pre-closing liabilities, which are not capped. The Sellers will make available certain employees for a post-closing transitional period, provided that the Company pay for their services. For three years following the closing, the Sellers and Formativ will be prohibited from competing with the Company and from soliciting any acquired clients or inducing or encouraging any of the transitioned workforce to leave their employment with the Company.

 

The foregoing description of the APA does not purport to be complete and is qualified entirely by reference to the text of such document, a copy of which is attached as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
