Note 2 - THE MERGER

On May 16, 2011, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement by and among FPM, FPI, and MergerCo. Upon closing of the Merger, on May 16, 2011, MergerCo merged with and into FPI, and FPI, as the surviving corporation, became a wholly owned subsidiary of FPM.

 

FPM was organized on January 25, 2007 under the laws of the State of Nevada. FPM served as an electronics waste management solution provider, specializing in the collection, retirement, storage and remarketing of excess, damaged or obsolete electronic assets, such as computer, telecommunications and other electronic office equipment.

 

FPI, a Delaware corporation, is a molecular imaging company headquartered in Montclair, NJ. FPI was founded in 2003 to engage in the discovery, development and commercialization of proprietary products for the positron emission tomography (PET) market. The Company’s initial focus has been on the development of novel cardiovascular imaging agents that can more efficiently and effectively detect and assess acute and chronic forms of coronary artery disease (CAD). Molecular imaging pharmaceuticals are radiopharmaceuticals that enable early detection of disease through the visualization of subtle changes in biochemical and biological processes.

 

The Company did not have any outstanding options or warrants to purchase shares of capital stock immediately prior to the closing of the Merger. Upon closing of the Merger, the Company issued 2,611,375 shares of common stock and 1,807,229 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the Private Placement and warrants to purchase 1,817,593 shares of common stock to placement agents in connection with the Private Placement. Prior to the Merger, we adopted the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) and reserved 6,475,750 shares of common stock for issuance as awards to officers, directors, employees, consultants and others. Upon closing of the Merger, we issued options to purchase an aggregate of 4,423,500 shares of our common stock with strike prices ranging from $0.13 to $1.33 per share to certain of our post-Merger officers, directors, employees, consultants and others.

 

The shares of FPM's common stock issued to the former holders of FPI’s common stock in connection with the Merger, and the shares of the Company's common stock and warrants issued in the Private Placement, were not registered under the Securities Act, in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated under that section, which exempts transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. These securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. Certificates representing these shares contain a legend stating the restrictions applicable to such shares.
