Commercial Lease

On April 21, 2015, AxoGen Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of AxoGen, Inc.  (“AxoGen” or the “Company”), entered into a Commercial Lease with Ja-Cole, L.P. (the “New Lease”) for property located in Burleson, Texas. The New Lease supersedes and replaces a current lease with Ja-Cole. Under the terms of the New Lease, AxoGen leased an additional 2,100 square feet of warehouse space that will be combined with its current 5,400 square feet of warehouse/office space in Burleson, Texas.   The New Lease is for a three year term expiring April 21, 2018, renewable thereafter by agreement of the parties, at an annual cost of $60,000 per year.  The expanded Burleson facility will house raw material storage and product distribution and allow expansion space as required for AxoGen operations.

 

Processing Agreement

Under an Amended and Restated Nerve Tissue Processing Agreement (the “LifeNet Agreement”) with LifeNet Health, AxoGen processes and packages Avance® Nerve Graft using its employees and equipment located at LifeNet Health, Virginia Beach, Virginia.  As a result of business requirements of LifeNet Health and their need for additional space,  on April 16, 2015 they notified AxoGen that it will need to transition out of the Virginia Beach facility on or before February 27, 2016 and therefore is terminating the LifeNet Agreement effective February 27, 2016.   AxoGen  has entered into an agreement with Community Blood Center (d/b/a Community Tissue Services) (“CTS”) as a result this termination.
