BioScrip and Home Solutions Enter Into
Amended Asset Purchase Agreement to Expedite Closing
DENVER and HAMMONTON, N.J., September 2, 2016 -- BioScrip,
Inc. (NASDAQ:BIOS) ("BioScrip" or the "Company"), a leading national provider of infusion and home care management
solutions and HS Infusion Holdings, Inc. ("Home Solutions"), today announced that they have further amended the terms
of their Asset Purchase Agreement dated June 13, 2016. The amendment should allow the parties to close the transaction during the
first two weeks of September.
To facilitate the timely consummation of this transaction, BioScrip
and Home Solutions have amended the Asset Purchase Agreement to eliminate the condition to closing that the Company receive stockholder
approval to increase its authorized share capital that would allow the company to issue shares of common stock upon the achievement
of certain post-closing earn-out conditions. BioScrip and Home Solutions have instead agreed to hold a stockholder meeting after
the closing to seek such stockholder approval and to provide Home Solutions with certain contractual protections in the event such
approval is not obtained.
As previously announced, BioScrip and Home Solutions entered
into an Asset Purchase Agreement that will bring together two highly complementary core infusion services portfolios that will
have greater scale and financial resources as well as an enhanced national presence. Expediting the close of the transaction will
enable the companies to put the integration plans into action and begin to take the necessary steps to achieve the many benefits
that this combination provides.
Upon closing, Home Solutions shareholders will receive consideration
consisting of $67.5 million payable in cash, subject to certain adjustments, and 3.75 million shares of the Company's common stock.
Depending on the achievement of certain post-closing earn-out conditions and the outcome of a shareholder vote to increase the
Company's authorized share capital, Home Solutions may become entitled to be issued shares of common stock underlying the
Tranche A and Tranche B Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The number of RSUs in Tranche A and Tranche B is approximately 3.1 million
and 4.0 million, respectively.
