CANCER GENETICS, INC. (NASDAQ:CGIX) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 5, 2019, Cancer Genetics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Clinical Agreement”) by and among the Company and siParadigm, LLC (“siParadigm”), to which the Company sold to siParadigm, on July 5, 2019, certain assets associated with the Company’s clinical laboratory business (the “Clinical Business,” and such assets, the “Designated Assets”), and agreed to cease operating its Clinical Business. The Designated Assets include intellectual property, equipment and customer lists associated with the Clinical Business, and the Company will provide certain transitional services to siParadigm to the Clinical Agreement. The cash consideration paid by siParadigm at closing was approximately $868,000, which includes approximately $45,000 for certain equipment plus a $1,000,000 advance payment of the Earn-Out (as defined below), less approximately $177,000 of certain costs incurred by siParadigm on the Company’s behalf prior to closing. The Earn-Out, to be paid over the 24 months post-closing, is based on fees for all tests performed by siParadigm for the Company’s clinical customers during the 12-month period following the closing (the “Earn-Out”).

Under the Clinical Agreement, the Company agreed to certain non-competition and non-solicitation provisions, including that it will cease performing certain clinical tests and will not solicit or seek business from certain of its customers (other than for the Company’s other lines of business) for a period of three years following the closing date.

The above summary is not a complete description of the Clinical Agreement, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2019.
