4.	Acquisition of Surgical Biologics, LLC

On December 21, 2010, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“the Merger Agreement”) with Membrane Products Holdings, LLC and OnRamp Capital Investments, LLC, the owners of Surgical Biologics, LLC (“Surgical Biologics”), a privately held company headquartered in Kennesaw, Georgia. This transaction closed on January 5, 2011 and as a result we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Surgical Biologics in exchange for $500,000 cash, a total of $1,250,000 in 4% Convertible Secured Promissory Notes, and $7,087,500 in stock, represented by 5,250,000 shares of our common stock (525,000 of which were held in escrow for the purpose of securing the indemnification obligations outlined in the Merger Agreement). Contingent consideration may be payable in a formula determined by sales and certain expenses for the years 2011 and 2012. The contingent consideration was valued at $7,404,700 and is shown in the schedule below as fair value of earn-out. We completed the acquisition of Surgical Biologics in an effort to extend our biomaterials product lines. As of December 31, 2011, the Company evaluated the contingent liability based on operating results for the year, and adjusted the earn-out liability to $7,410,503. The adjustment of approximately $5,800 is included in Selling, General & Administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011.

In total, the 4% Convertible Promissory Notes are convertible into up to 1,250,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 per share (a) at any time upon the election of the holder of the Convertible Notes; or (b) at the election of the Company, at any such time as the closing price per share of the Company's common stock (as reported by the OTCBB or on any national securities exchange on which the Company's shares may be listed, as the case may be) closes at no less than $1.75 per share for not less than 20 consecutive trading days in any period prior to the maturity date. If converted, the Common Stock will be available to be sold following satisfaction of the applicable conditions as set forth in Rule 144. The 4% Convertible Promissory Notes mature in eighteen (18) months and earn interest at 4% per annum on the outstanding principal amount payable in cash on the maturity date or convertible into shares of common stock of the Company as provided for above. The 4% Convertible Promissory Notes are secured by a security interest in the Intellectual Property, including the Patents and know-how and trade secrets related thereto, owned by, or exclusively licensed to, Surgical Biologics, LLC.

The Company has evaluated the 4% Convertible Promissory Notes for accounting purposes under GAAP and has determined that the conversion feature meets the conventional-convertible exemption and, accordingly, bifurcation and fair-value measurement of the conversion feature is not required. We are required to re-evaluate this conclusion upon each financial statement closing date while the 4% Convertible Promissory Notes are outstanding. Notwithstanding, the 4% Convertible Promissory Notes were issued with a beneficial conversion feature having an intrinsic value of $437,500. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature was determined by comparing the contracted conversion price to the fair value of the common on the date the respective 4% Convertible Promissory Notes were issued. A beneficial conversion feature only exists when the embedded conversion feature is “in-the-money” at the commitment date.

As a result of the beneficial conversion feature, the 4% Convertible Promissory Notes were recorded net of a discount of $437,500 related to the beneficial conversion feature, the offset of which is recorded in paid-in capital, and the discount will be amortized through periodic charges to interest expense over the tem of the 4% Convertible Notes using the effective interest method.

The contingent consideration which was valued at $7,404,700 was classified as a liability. The Company has evaluated the contingent consideration for accounting purposes under GAAP and has determined that the contingent consideration is within the scope of ASC 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity whereby a financial instrument other than an outstanding share, that embodies a conditional obligation that the issuer may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares, shall be classified as a liability if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on variations in something other than the fair value of the issuer's equity shares.

The actual purchase price was based on cash paid, the fair value of our stock on the date of the Surgical Biologics acquisition, and direct costs associated with the combination. The actual purchase price was allocated as follows:
