Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 5, 2015, we entered into and closed on an Asset Purchase Agreement with FSC Laboratories, Inc. (the “Seller”). Pursuant to the agreement, we purchased assets related to the Seller’s product known as Primsol ® (trimethoprim solution), including certain intellectual property and contracts, inventory, work in progress and all marketing and sales assets and materials related solely to Primsol (together, the “Primsol Business”), and assumed certain of the Seller’s liabilities, including those related to the sale and marketing of Primsol arising after the closing.

We paid $500,000 at closing for the Primsol Business and we agreed to pay an additional $141,694 payable within five days after transfer of the Primsol-related product inventory. We also agreed to pay an additional (a) $500,000 payable no later than March 31, 2016, (b) $500,000 payable no later than June 30, 2016, and (c) $250,000 payable no later than September 30, 2016 (together, the “Installment Payments”).

The agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants by each party. The agreement contains customary indemnification provisions by each party, including, subject to certain limitations, the indemnification by each party for any losses arising out of any breach of the other party’s representations or warranties or any breach or failure to perform any of its covenants under the agreement, as well as any liabilities related to the Primsol Business prior to the closing (as to us) and after the closing (as to the Seller). Our sole right to and source of indemnification under the agreement is an offset against the Installment Payments and payment of such offset amount into an escrow account.

The agreement also provides that for a period of one year after the closing the Seller will not directly or indirectly sell, market, promote, advertise or distribute anywhere in the world any urinary tract anti-infective pharmaceutical or treatment product containing trimethoprim.

The foregoing summary of the material terms of the agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the agreement. The agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.16 and is incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K. The press release announcing the acquisition of the Primsol Business is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K.

We are not required to provide financial statements for the Primsol Business or pro forma financial statements to reflect the acquisition of the Primsol Business because the transaction does not meet the threshold requirements of Rules 8-04 and 8-05 of Regulation S-X.

The failure of the Indemnified Person to give reasonably prompt notice of any Indemnification Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligations with respect thereto, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with, any Indemnification Claim that relates to any Losses indemnified against by it hereunder, subject to the remainder of this Section 7.4(b).

If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with, any Indemnification Claim that relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, the Indemnified Person may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with, such Indemnification Claim. If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Person may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of such Indemnification Claim; provided , however , that such Indemnified Person shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if (i) so requested by the Indemnifying Party to participate or, (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Person, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable. The parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Indemnification Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle or otherwise dispose of the Indemnification Claim on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.4 to the contrary, (i) the Indemnified Person shall not settle or compromise any Indemnification Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, settle or compromise any Indemnification Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment if (A) such settlement or compromise does not include a full release of claims against the other Party, (B) such settlement or compromise includes an admission of guilt or fault of the other Party, or (C) as a result thereof, the Indemnified Person would become subject to injunctive or other equitable relief or any remedy other than the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party.

Exhibit 99.1

Aytu BioScience Acquires Second Revenue-Generating Urology Product

Company to Begin Marketing Primsol ® Solution for Urinary Tract Infections

Englewood, CO – October 6, 2015 – Aytu BioScience, Inc. (OTCQB: AYTU), a specialty healthcare company focused on developing treatments for urological and related conditions, today announced that it has acquired the rights to Primsol ® (trimethoprim hydrochloride) oral solution from FSC Laboratories, Inc. Primsol is the Company’s second acquisition of a branded, revenue-generating product in the urology market, adding to its commercial-stage product portfolio, which also includes ProstaScint ® for the detection and assessment of prostate cancer.

Primsol is the only FDA-approved liquid formulation of trimethoprim, an antibiotic that is well established in current guidelines for treating uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs). This differentiated product is appropriate for UTI patients that have difficulty swallowing tablets, such as the elderly, and particularly for patients that experience adverse reactions to sulfamethoxazole (“sulfa”).

Josh Disbrow, Chief Executive Officer of Aytu BioScience, stated, “As we continue to build our commercial infrastructure over the next few months, we are excited to add a second established brand to our product portfolio. We expect to benefit from and continue to grow Primsol’s established base of prescribers, which already includes a significant proportion of urologists despite the fact that it has not been previously marketed to these specialists. This allows us to utilize the same sales channel as ProstaScint, leading to potential commercial synergies. Aytu remains focused on executing on our core strategy of acquiring commercialized products and developing late-stage clinical assets while further expanding our leadership position in urology and related conditions. We are proud to bring Primsol to our core base of urology customers.”

Aytu will pay a total of $1.75 million over the course of approximately 12 months, including an immediate $500,000 upfront payment. The Company will also purchase inventory valued at approximately $200,000 as part of the acquisition. The total acquisition cost represents only a slight premium to current gross annual sales of Primsol. All intellectual property and current manufacturing contracts will transfer to Aytu BioScience.

About Primsol

Primsol is an oral antibiotic containing trimethoprim hydrochloride that is indicated in adults for the treatment of initial episodes of uncomplicated urinary tract infections due to susceptible strains of the following organisms: Escherichia coli , Proteus mirabilis , Klebsiella pneumoniae , Enterobacter species and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species, including S. saprophyticus . Primsol is also indicated in pediatric patients for the treatment of acute otitis media due to susceptible strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae .


Important Safety Information:

Contraindications:

Primsol (trimethoprim hydrochloride) is contraindicated in individuals hypersensitive to trimethoprim and in those with documented megaloblastic anemia due to folate deficiency.

Warnings:

Experience with trimethoprim alone is limited, but it has been reported rarely to interfere with hematopoiesis, especially when administered in large doses or for prolonged periods. The presence of clinical signs such as sore throat, fever, pallor, or purpura may be early indications of serious blood disorders.

Precautions:

Trimethoprim should be given with caution to patients with possible folate deficiency. Folates may be administered concomitantly without interfering with the antibacterial action of trimethoprim. Trimethoprim should be given with caution to patients with impaired renal or hepatic function. A complete blood count should be obtained if there are any clinical signs of a blood disorder. Primsol may need to be discontinued if there is a significant reduction in count.

Adverse Reactions:

The most commonly reported adverse reactions in pediatric clinical trials were: diarrhea, vomiting, skin rash, and abdominal pain.

Drug Interactions:

Primsol may inhibit the hepatic metabolism of phenytoin. When administering these drugs concurrently be alert for possible excessive phenytoin effect.

Indications for Use:

Primsol is indicated in adults for the treatment of initial episodes of uncomplicated urinary tract infections due to susceptible strains of the following organisms: Escherichia coli , Proteus mirabilis , Klebsiella pneumoniae , Enterobacter species and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species, including S. saprophyticus . Primsol is also indicated in pediatric patients for the treatment of acute otitis media due to susceptible strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae .
