 CVR Medical Corp. (CVM.V) (TSXV:CVM) (FRANKFURT: B3BN) (OTCQB: CRRVF) (“CVR Medical” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that following receipt of final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange, the Company is completing the restructuring transaction (the “Restructuring”) with CVR Global, Inc. (“CVR Global”), first announced on May 29, 2018.

Pursuant to the Restructuring, CVR Medical is acquiring CVR Global’s 50% interest in the companies’ joint venture focused on the commercialization of the Carotid Stenotic Scan (CSS) and the joint venture is being terminated in favor of the creation of a new Delaware corporation wholly-owned by CVR Medical, CVRM, which will license from CVR Global and CVR Medical all necessary patents and technology in respect of the CSS Device. Going forward the CSS Device will be developed and manufactured under the terms of a CSS Commercialization Agreement entered into between CVRM, and CVR Global pursuant to which CVR Global has been retained as the exclusive developer and manufacturer of the CSS with funding to be provided by CVRM.

The move from the joint venture currently in place to this next structural phase, is a signal of confidence that CVR Medical is in position to successfully guide the finalization of developmental phases and seamlessly transition into marketing and sales of the CSS Device once market clearance/approval is received.

As consideration under the Restructuring, CVR Global is being issued an aggregate of 30,000,000 common shares of CVR Medical, 27,000,000 of which are being placed in escrow to be released upon achievement of the following key milestones:

Milestone# of Shares

FDA Clearance/Approval of the CSS Device10,000,000 Consideration Shares
Achievement of US$50MM in revenue from sales of the CSS Device15,000,000 Consideration Shares

 

3,000,000 shares, which are not subject to escrow, have been issued as of November 21, 2018 and are subject to a customary statutory four month hold period under Canadian securities laws. In addition, CVR Global is also being granted a 7% royalty on all CSS device sales, with a 3% royalty on all associated disposable sales.
