PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. You should read the following summary together with the more detailed information appearing in this prospectus, including the sections titled “Risk Factors,” “Selected Consolidated Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Business,” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes before deciding whether to purchase our common shares.
Business Overview
We are a medical technology company focused on improving patient safety and aesthetic outcomes, initially in the breast aesthetics and reconstruction market. Our line of silicone gel-filled breast implants, branded as Motiva Implants, is the centerpiece of our MotivaImagine medical technology platform. Post-market surveillance data, which was not generated in connection with an FDA PMA approval study and was self-collected rather than collected at mandatory follow-ups, and published third-party data indicates that Motiva Implants show low rates of adverse events (including rupture, capsular contracture, and safety related reoperations) that we believe compare favorably with those of our competitors. We believe the proprietary technologies that differentiate our Motiva Implants enable improved safety and aesthetic outcomes and have helped drive our revenue growth. Our MotivaImagine platform enables surgical techniques that we promote as Motiva branded surgeries. We have developed other complementary products and services on our MotivaImagine platform, which are aimed at further enhancing patient outcomes.
To date, most of our revenues have been generated from sales of our Motiva Implants. We began selling Motiva Implants outside the United States in October 2010; since then, we have introduced four generations of Motiva Implants, and Motiva Implants are now sold in over 60 countries, including nine of the top ten countries for breast augmentations in 2016 according to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, or ISAPS. We currently sell our products either via exclusive distributors or, in certain countries, our direct sales force. We received approval of an investigational device exemption, or IDE, from the FDA in March 2018 to initiate our Motiva Implant clinical trial in the United States. The first patient in the study was enrolled in April 2018, and we anticipate completing enrollment in early 2019. The results of the study are expected to support a pre-market approval, or PMA, submission to the FDA.
We have assembled a broad portfolio of intellectual property related to our medical device and aesthetics products. We believe this intellectual property, combined with proprietary manufacturing processes and the regulatory approvals we have successfully obtained outside of the United States , provides us with a strong market position. As of April 30, 2018, we own or have rights to three issued and seven pending patents in the United States related to various aspects of our Motiva implants (such as implant barrier layers, surface texture technology, minimally invasive implant delivery systems, and our QInside Safety Technology radio frequency identification devices). In addition, we have six pending foreign applications and six pending PCT applications. We intend to continue to expand our intellectual property portfolio and, combined with our Motiva Implants’ favorable safety profile, obtain FDA approval and drive Motiva’s adoption in the United States, which represents the largest breast augmentation market.
Our revenue for 2015, 2016 and 2017 was $9.6 million, $19.8 million and $34.7 million , respectively, an increase of $10.2 million, or 106%, in 2016 compared to 2015, and an increase of $14.9 million , or 75% , in 2017 compared to 2016 . Net losses increased from $1.6 million in 2015 to $22.2 million in 2016 , and further increased to $34.9 million in 2017 , an increase of 57% compared to 2016. As of December 31, 2017 , we had an accumulated deficit of $67.9 million .
Our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 was $6.9 million and $14.8 million , respectively, an increase of $7.9 million , or 114% . Net losses increased from $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . As of March 31, 2018 , we had an accumulated deficit of $74.4 million .

Traditional Breast Implants and Their Limitations
Despite the global demand for breast augmentation procedures, there has been relatively little innovation since the 1990s. In 1992, due to emerging safety concerns, the FDA placed a moratorium on sales of silicone breast implants in the United States that was lifted in 2006. This, combined with the ongoing FDA requirement for a PMA on all new breast implants, has discouraged breast implant innovation over the past 30 years. Current products have relatively high adverse event rates, and we believe many do not mimic natural breast tissue. The table below contains selected adverse event information from published data from the PMA clinical trials conducted by the only three companies currently approved to market silicone breast implants in the United States.

Each of these prospective studies was conducted at multiple sites in the United States and submitted by each of these companies as their core study supporting approval, as that term is defined in the FDA Guidance on Breast Implants. Sientra, Inc., Mentor Worldwide LLC (a division of Johnson & Johnson), and Allergan plc studies commenced in 2002, 2000, and 1998, respectively, and the results described above were released in 2012, 2009, and 2007, respectively. Five-year and six-year data was chosen to increase comparability to our six-year data.
Kaplan-Meier risk rates were the primary method of analysis for the above data.
(1)  Adverse events in the study were derived from the primary augmentation cohort. The overall patient population in the study was 715 patients.
(2)  The total for Sientra is based on the total patient population in the study, and the totals for Allergan and Mentor are based on a substudy cohort of patients who underwent an MRI, which is lower than the overall number of patients participating in the study.

This table represents the final data from the primary cohort of the same study referenced in the above five- and six-year PMA studies conducted by our competitors. This 10-year data for Sientra, Allergan and Mentor were released in 2018, 2018, and 2015, respectively.
(1)  The rupture rates represent the MRI cohort only for each respective study, which consists of 571 patients for Sientra, 158 patients for Allergan and 202 patients for Mentor.
Our Clinical Data
We believe that the improved appearance, feel and patient safety profile of our Motiva Implants provides a strong competitive advantage that will help us to both capture market share and achieve higher patient conversion rates by addressing the key concerns described by patients who choose not to pursue breast augmentation surgery. We believe Motiva Implants have demonstrated a safety profile that compares favorably with our primary competitors based on the following data.
Our Postmarket Surveillance Data
Our postmarket surveillance data indicate capsular contracture and reoperation for adverse events of less than 0.1%, which was collected from procedures performed outside of the United States between October 2010 and March 2018. In contrast to the above competitor data, our data is self-reported rather than collected at mandatory follow-ups and was generated solely for our postmarket surveillance instead of in connection with an FDA PMA approval study.

Third-Party Retrospective Data
An independent study by Sforza et al., published in the peer-reviewed Aesthetic Surgery Journal in 2017, conducted between April 2013 and April 2016, reported 5,813 consecutive cases of breast augmentation with Motiva Implants. This independent study was not commissioned by us, but Dr. Sforza is a member of our medical advisory board and receives compensation from us in such capacity. The study reported overall rates of complication and reoperation of 0.76% over an interval of three years. All procedures were performed in a single center (Dolan Park Hospital, Bromsgrove, England) by a group of 16 plastic surgeons. There were no serious adverse events and no cases of implant rupture for device failure, capsular contracture (Baker III/IV) in primary cases, double capsules, or late seromas. The authors presented consistent real-world data and believe that their free, three year aftercare system is a strong method for patient retention and follow-up by eliminating any financial limitations for patients to return for follow-up consultations if any issues occur. Anecdotally, the same group of surgeons utilizing the same aftercare system for the last seven years reported substantially different results utilizing other types of silicone breast implants (i.e, non-Motiva Implants). The overall revision rate for this group from 2010 to 2013 utilizing a different, macro-textured, FDA approved implant (N > 10,000) was 8.43%, which is more than 10 times higher than the rate for Motiva Implants reported in this analysis.

Our Prospective Data
We are also conducting a 10-year prospective trial in 233 patients in Costa Rica to assess the safety profile and patient satisfaction of Motiva Implants. Interim results from the current study include six-year data for 35 patients and three-year data for 79 patients, and to date there have been no reported implant ruptures, capsular contractures or adverse event-related reoperations in these patient cohorts.
We have started a U.S. trial directed at FDA approval with similar endpoints to this prospective trial with patient populations similar to those of our competitors. The first patient in the study was enrolled in April 2018, and we anticipate completing enrollment in early 2019.

Motiva Implants
Current generation Motiva Implants utilize our proprietary Ergonomix design, a round and oval-base implant that responds to gravity and movement in ways that more closely mimic natural breast tissue. We believe that our favorable safety profile and patient satisfaction rates are attributable to our differentiating technologies, which include:
SilkSurface/SmoothSilk is a smooth bio-engineered cell-friendly surface characterized by a uniformly high density of hierarchical micro/nano surface features, designed to reduce the body’s inflammatory reactions to our implants, which is intended to lower rates of complications like capsular contracture and seroma.
Silicone gel rheologies consists of highly purified biocompatible gels with specific visco-elastic properties that we believe enables Motiva Implants to respond to the patient’s motion in ways that more closely mimic the appearance, feel and movement of natural breast tissue under the brand names of ProgressiveGel PLUS and ProgressiveGel Ultima.
TrueMonobloc technology, which uses specific silicone chemistry and our proprietary manufacturing processes to allow for all components to be bonded for increased elasticity and ductility compared with silicone implants produced by our competitors.
BluSeal technology, a proprietary colored layer of low-permeability silicone within the implant shell, gives a visual indicator of the layer integrity during the manufacturing process. This technology also helps surgeons confirm whether the barrier layer has defects, or other imperfections, before implantation that might lead to post-implantation shell rupture or gel bleed.

Table of Contents

QInside Safety Technology provides a Radio-Frequency Identification Device, or RFID, microtransponder embedded within the gel of the implant that gives surgeons the ability to non-invasively check each implant’s unique identification number with an RFID reader. The microtransponder contains only a unique 15 digit code that identifies the product, and does not contain any patient information. Surgeons can also access implant-related information, such as implant type, size, and other characteristics, either through our Motiva implants website or the MotivaImagine application. Surgeons can only view patient-specific information after the patient or the surgeon creates a secure account and registers the products and applicable patient name. The MotivaImagine application and Motiva implants website also allow the patient to access the implant warranty information.
Our design, which allows all implants to be 100% filled, is intended to reduce the risk of creases in the shell that could create shell weakness and rupture.
Divina 3D Simulation System
We sell our Divina 3D simulation systems to plastic surgeons for use in pre-surgical patient consultations and planning. Divina utilizes a combination of 3D imaging hardware and proprietary Tissue Behavior Simulation, or TBS, software to give physicians and patients the ability to visualize the potential aesthetic results of a procedure and various implant sizes in real time. We believe that the addition of a Divina system to a clinic will facilitate an increase in the number of patients who chose to proceed from a consultation to a surgical procedure.
Puregraft
In September 2016, we became the exclusive distributor of the Puregraft line of products outside the United States and Canada. Puregraft is used to remove blood, lipids and other components from adipose tissue, primarily leaving the viable adipose cells for reinjection into areas of the patient’s body where additional soft tissue volume or contouring is desired. Known as an autologous adipose tissue graft, these procedures are utilized primarily in breast augmentation and reconstruction, facial enhancement, and body contouring. In an independent study by Gerth et al. reported in the peer-reviewed Aesthetic Surgery Journal in 2014 conducted between November 2010 and November 2012, 26 patients that had received autologous adipose tissue grafts for facial contouring processed via Puregraft had significantly higher long-term retention of volume when compared to 33 patients that had received grafts processed using conventional means, with statistical significance being determined by a p-value of 0.03. In another independent study conducted by Sforza et al. at Dolan Park Hospital published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal in 2016, in the breast augmentation setting, a clinical study of 26 patients, whose implant procedures were subsequently enhanced with Puregraft-enabled grafts between April 2013 and October 2014, resulted in approximately 73% of fat volume being retained by patients at one year, and 96% of patients reported satisfaction with the outcome. The initial term of our distribution agreement with Puregraft ends in September 2019, but we have the ability to renew the agreement at the end of the initial term if we wish to do so and meet certain minimum purchase requirements.
Branded Surgeries
Our suite of products and technologies enables surgical techniques that we intend to develop and promote as “branded surgeries.” Our first such branded surgery, MotivaHybrid, combines 3D pre-surgical assessment of existing breast tissue volume using either our Divina system or another 3D scanning system, together with Motiva Implants and Puregraft autologous adipose tissue grafts. The MotivaHybrid method is designed to enable surgeons to optimize silicone volume using Motiva Implants and balance the ratio of silicone to tissue with additional contouring using Puregraft for more natural balanced results and improved patient satisfaction. Our second branded surgery, Motiva MinimalScar, allows surgeons to significantly reduce the size of the surgical incision by using our proprietary MotivaImagine Ultralight LED Retractor in conjunction with the Motiva Insertion Sleeve. We are also developing Motiva Minimally Invasive Natural Technique, or Motiva MINT — a family of branded surgeries that we anticipate will allow breast augmentation through small incisions. We intend for Motiva MINT to allow breast augmentation procedures to be performed under local anesthesia rather than general anesthesia, with faster recovery times and a resulting reduction of surgical complications. The implants associated with Motiva MINT have been developed, and we currently intend to begin the CE marking process in 2018. Instruments and special devices for the Motiva MINT procedure are currently being prototyped and tested and will require regulatory approval prior to commercialization. We believe Motiva MINT will be able to attract new customers and expand the market for breast aesthetic procedures.

MotivaImagine Centers
We utilize our MotivaImagine Center initiative, which are collaborations with plastic surgery clinics whereby we provide them with access to our technologies and the ability to brand themselves as a MotivaImagine Center. In exchange for these services and use of the Motiva branding, each MotivaImagine Center commits to use Motiva Implants and other products in the MotivaImagine product platform. Before certifying a MotivaImagine Center, we ensure that the center offers:
either our Divina or AX3 3D simulator, or a third party cloud-based visualization software that we sell in partnership with Crisalix systems;
access to the full suite of MotivaImagine products that complement Motiva Implants;
surgical staff trained by Establishment Labs in the optimal use of MotivaImagine products; and
branding and design elements, according to company guidelines, that are intended to create a more luxurious and reassuring experience for patients.
Since 2016, 28 independent clinics outside the United States have elected to become MotivaImagine Centers, and we are pursuing enrollment of additional centers as a key component of our sales and marketing strategy. We also intend to utilize the network of MotivaImagine Centers as a channel for other future aesthetic surgical products on our MotivaImagine platform .
Our Competitive Strengths
Patient-centric innovative implant technologies. We have developed our Motiva Implants by enhancing and creating novel product components for our implants, and then combining these components into products that deliver improved aesthetic outcomes, increased patient satisfaction and favorable safety profiles.
Extensive suite of complementary products and services. Our MotivaImagine product portfolio includes innovative products such as Divina 3D surgical simulation systems, Puregraft autologous fat grafting systems, and other surgical tools. We believe our branded surgical procedures, such as MotivaHybrid, Motiva MinimalScar and Motiva MINT, will address key unmet needs for both the physician and the patient.
Proprietary internal manufacturing processes and capabilities. We manufacture our silicone products in state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in Costa Rica rather than relying on third-party manufacturers. In these facilities, we utilize our novel 3D imprinted molding method to create proprietary surface features that, in combination with other proprietary materials and methods, differentiate our products from those of our competitors. Our two manufacturing sites have gone through full site inspections and audits under the Medical Device Single Audit Program, or MDSAP, which were carried out by the British Standards Institute, or BSI, an agency which the FDA accepts as a substitute for routine agency inspections. We believe our modern facilities, focus on product quality and deep technological know-how have helped us establish and maintain a brand of consistency, quality and safety.
Dynamic worldwide sales platform. We sell our products both through exclusive arrangements with leading local distributors who have strong local surgeon relationships and our direct sales force in key markets such as Brazil and certain countries in Europe. Using this market specific approach, we have built an effective and efficient worldwide sales platform.
Proven management team with expansive industry experience. We have a highly experienced management team that is comprised of leaders from the medical aesthetic market.
Our Growth Strategy
Our goal is to be the global leader in aesthetic surgical implant technology, including breast implants, while improving patient safety through product innovation. The key elements of our strategy include:
Expand revenues in existing markets. We believe we can continue to grow market share in our existing markets due to the favorable safety profile and improved aesthetic outcomes of our Motiva Implants.
Launch Motiva Implants in additional markets outside the United States . We expect that continued geographic expansion will be a key driver of growth in the near term. During 2016 and 2017, we started sales through distributors in Australia, Israel, Russia, Saudi Arabia and South Korea, as well as starting direct sales in Brazil, the second largest market for breast augmentations. Expansion into new countries in the Asia-Pacific region (China, India, Taiwan and Thailand) is expected in the next several years .
Obtain FDA approval and enter the U.S. market. We are conducting our IDE clinical trial in the United States, with the goal of obtaining approval from the FDA for a premarket application, or PMA, and commercializing our Motiva Implants in the United States. The first patient in the study was enrolled in April 2018, and we anticipate completing enrollment in early 2019.

Optimize patient conversion through sales and marketing programs. Our MotivaImagine Centers enable us to engage with and educate patients on the Motiva brand and the benefits of our products, as well as increase clinical efficiency for our physician collaborators. In the future, we expect our MotivaImagine Centers to have important strategic synergies with our branded surgeries, which are promoted globally. We employ a multi-faceted marketing strategy that includes social media engagement, conferences, advertisements and education.
Seek out and pursue strategic acquisitions. We intend to seek out other innovative products, services and branded procedures that meet unmet needs in the aesthetics space and complement our existing product portfolio, and we believe this can be additive to future revenue growth. We have purchased distributor networks in strategic markets and may acquire other third party sales organizations in the future. While we have no specific acquisitions or planned licensing agreements, we may engage in these, or other strategic transactions, with the goal of augmenting our existing product portfolio and global footprint.
Continue a high level of engagement with key opinion leaders. We promote Motiva Implants, in part, via an extensive and robust calendar of physician education events led by key opinion leaders in the field of aesthetic surgery. In 2018, we plan to conduct approximately 70 events through our MotivaEdge educational platform. We also collaborate with key opinion leaders to identify and develop new clinical applications for our existing products, as well as new product and strategic opportunities.
Selected Risk Factors Associated with Our Business
Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, as more fully described in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this prospectus summary. You should read these risks before you invest in our common shares. These risks include, among others:
We expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future, and our ability to achieve and maintain profitability depends on the commercial success of our Motiva Implants, which represents over 85% of our revenues.
We have a limited operating history and may face difficulties encountered by companies early in their commercialization in competitive markets, particularly companies that develop and sell medical devices.
Motiva Implants are not currently approved for commercial sale in the United States. Obtaining such approval is costly and time consuming, and we may not obtain the regulatory approval required to sell our products in the United States.
There is no guarantee that the FDA or non-U.S. regulatory agencies will grant approval for our current or future products, and failure to obtain regulatory approvals in the United States and other international jurisdictions, or revocation of approvals in those jurisdictions, will prevent us from marketing our products.
We expect to significantly increase the size of our organization; as a result, we may encounter difficulties in managing our growth, which could disrupt our operations and/or increase our net losses.
We rely on a single-source, third-party supplier for medical-grade long-term implantable silicone, which is the primary raw material used in our Motiva Implants. If this supplier were to increase prices for this raw material over time or experience interruptions in its ability to supply us with this raw material, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Various factors outside our direct control may adversely affect manufacturing and supply of our breast implants, tissue expanders and other products.
Negative publicity, product defects and any resulting litigation concerning our products or our competitors’ products could harm our reputation and reduce demand for silicone breast impl ants, either of which could negatively impact our financial results.
Commercial success of Motiva Implants in the United States or elsewhere depends on our ability to accurately forecast customer demand and manufacture sufficient quantities of product in the implant sizes that patients and physicians request, and to manage inventory effectively and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
If we are not able to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our products and technologies, or if the scope of our patents is not sufficiently broad, we may not be able to effectively maintain our market leading technology position.
If we are unable to adequately address these and other risks we face, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be adversely affected.
Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
In addition, we are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, enacted in April 2012, and therefore we intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements, including not being required to have our internal control over financial reporting

Table of Contents

audited by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in this prospectus, our periodic reports and proxy statement and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We may take advantage of these exemptions for up to five years or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company.”
Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. W e have elected to take advantage of the extension of time to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards available under Section 102(b) of the JOBS Act.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common shares involves a high degree of risk. The following risk factors describe circumstances or events that could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition or operating results. You should consider the following risks carefully, together with all the other information in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, before you invest in our common shares. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition, or operating results, could be adversely affected. As a result, the trading price of our common shares could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently believe are not material could also impair our business, financial condition or operating results.
Risks Related to the Development and Commercialization of Our Products
We expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future, and our ability to achieve and maintain profitability depends on the commercial success of our Motiva Implants, which represents over 85% of our revenues.
We have incurred losses to date and expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. In 2017, sales of our Motiva Implants accounted for over 85% of our revenues, and we expect our revenues to continue to be driven primarily by sales of these products. In order to achieve and sustain profitability, our revenues from these products will need to grow beyond the levels we have achieved in the past. If physicians and/or patients do not perceive our products to be competitive in features and safety when compared to other products in the market, or if demand for our Motiva Implants or for breast implants in general decreases, we may fail to achieve sales levels that provide for future profitability.
Our ability to successfully market Motiva Implants and our other current and future offerings depends on numerous factors, including but not limited to:
the outcomes of current and future clinical studies of Motiva Implants, including our ongoing PMA clinical trial, to demonstrate our products’ value in improving safety outcomes and/or patient satisfaction;
acceptance of Motiva Implants as safe and effective by patients, caregivers and the medical community;
an acceptable safety profile of Motiva Implants in the global market;
whether key thought leaders in the medical community accept that such clinical studies are sufficiently meaningful to influence their or their patients’ choices of product;
maintenance of our existing regulatory approvals and expansion of the geographies in which we have regulatory approvals;
commercially viable processes at a scale sufficient to meet anticipated demand at an adequate cost of manufacturing, and that are compliant with ISO 13485 Quality Management System requirements and/or good manufacturing practice, or GMP, requirements, as set forth in the FDA’s Quality System Regulation, Brazilian and other international regulations;
our success in educating physicians and patients about the benefits, administration and use of Motiva Implants, Motiva branded surgeries and value proposition of our MotivaImagine Centers;
the successful implementation of our MotivaImagine Centers with plastic surgery clinics;
the availability, perceived advantages, relative cost, relative safety and relative efficacy of alternative and competing treatments;
the willingness of patients to pay out-of-pocket for breast augmentation procedures in the absence of coverage and reimbursement for such procedures;
the success of our internal sales and marketing organization and the sales forces of our distributors; and
continued demand for breast augmentation and reconstruction procedures using silicone implants, which may be adversely affected by events involving either our products or those of our competitors, including FDA warnings to patients regarding Breast Implant-Associated Anaplasic Large Cell Lymphoma, or BIA-ALCL.
Some of these factors are beyond our control. If we are unable to continue to commercialize Motiva Implants and our other products, or unable to obtain a partner to commercialize them, we may not be able to produce any incremental revenues related to Motiva Implants and our other products. This would result in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
We have a limited operating history and may face difficulties encountered by companies early in their commercialization in competitive and rapidly evolving markets.
Our Motiva Implants have been marketed in countries outside of the United States since October 2010, and as such, we have a limited operating history upon which to evaluate our business and forecast our future net sales and operating

Table of Contents

results. In assessing our business prospects, you should consider the various risks and difficulties frequently encountered by companies early in their commercialization in competitive markets, particularly companies that develop and sell medical devices. These risks include our ability to:
implement and execute our business strategy;
expand and improve the productivity of our direct sales force, distributors and marketing programs to grow sales of our existing and proposed products;
increase awareness of our brands and build loyalty among plastic surgeons and patients;
manage expanding operations;
respond effectively to competitive pressures and developments;
enhance our existing products and develop new products;
obtain regulatory clearance or approval to enhance our existing products and commercialize new products;
respond to changing regulations associated with medical devices across all geographies;
perform clinical trials with respect to our existing products and any new products;
attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel in various areas of our business; and
obtain and maintain coverage and adequate levels of reimbursement for our products.
Due to our limited operating history, we may not have the institutional knowledge or experience to be able to effectively address these and other risks that we may face. In addition, we may not be able to develop insights into trends that could emerge and negatively affect our business and may fail to respond effectively to those trends. As a result of these or other risks, we may not be able to execute key components of our business strategy, and our business, financial condition and operating results may suffer.
Our business depends on maintaining our brand and ongoing customer demand for our products and services, and a significant reduction in sentiment or demand could affect our results of operations.
Our success depends on the reputation of our brands, which depends on factors such as the safety and quality of our products, our communication activities, including marketing and education efforts, and our management of our customer experience. Maintaining, promoting and positioning our brands is important to expanding our customer base. This will depend largely on the success of our education and marketing efforts and our ability to provide a consistent, high-quality customer experience.
We may need to make substantial investments in the areas of education and marketing in order to maintain and enhance our brands. Ineffective marketing, negative publicity, significant discounts by our competitors, product defects and related liability litigation, failure to obtain regulatory clearance for our products, counterfeit products, unfair labor practices and failure to protect the intellectual property rights in our brands are some of the potential threats to the strength of our business. To protect our brands’ status, we may need to make substantial expenditures to mitigate the impact of such threats.
We believe that maintaining and enhancing our brands in the countries in which we currently sell our products and in new countries where we have limited brands recognition is important to expanding our customer base. If we are unable to maintain or enhance the strength of our brands in the countries in which we currently sell our products and in new countries, then our growth strategy could be adversely affected.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to continue to enhance our existing products and services and develop or commercialize new products and services that respond to customer needs and preferences, which we expect will require us to incur significant expenses.
In recent years, we have incurred significant costs in connection with the development of Motiva Implants, the MotivaImagine platform, including the Divina 3D simulation system, and other products and services. We expect our research and development expenses to increase significantly in 2018 and beyond, as we initiate our IDE clinical trial in the United States. We will also incur significant expenses to expand our sales and marketing organization to support sales of Motiva Implants, including but not limited to a direct sales force in Brazil, France, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and the United Kingdom, as well as Puregraft and MotivaImagine products outside the United States and Canada. We intend to utilize a portion of the net proceeds from this offering in order to cover these additional expenses.
We may not be able to compete effectively with our competitors, and ultimately satisfy the needs and preferences of our customers, unless we can continue to enhance existing products and develop or acquire new innovative products and services. Product development requires the investment of significant financial, technological and other resources.

Table of Contents

Product improvements and new product introductions also require significant planning, design, development and testing at the product and manufacturing process levels. We may not be able to timely or effectively develop product improvements or new products and services. Likewise, we may not be able to acquire new products on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. Furthermore, in most countries, we need to obtain regulatory approval in order to market and sell our products, which may limit our ability to act quickly in scaling commercialization in those countries, including the United States. Our competitors’ new products may beat our products to market, be more effective or safer or have new features, obtain better market acceptance or render our products and services obsolete. Any new or modified products and services that we develop may not receive regulatory clearance or approval, or achieve market acceptance or otherwise generate any meaningful sales or profits for us.
Pricing pressure from customers and our competitors may impact our ability to sell our products at prices necessary to support our current business strategies and future expansion.
The industry environment for silicone implants and complementary products in certain international markets is price-sensitive. In these markets, or in the United States if we are successful in obtaining the required regulatory approval to sell in the U.S. market, our competitors may adopt aggressive pricing strategies to intensify the competitive pricing pressure for breast implants. If we are not successful in educating customers or third-party payors of the differentiation of our Motiva Implants as compared to our competitors products, customers may choose our competitors products. Additionally, as more competitors introduce products that compete with ours, we may face additional pricing pressure that would adversely impact our future results.
A substantial proportion of our sales are through exclusive distributors, and we do not have direct control over the efforts these distributors may use to sell our products. If our relationships with these third-party distributors deteriorate, or if these third-party distributors fail to sell our products or engage in activities that harm our reputation, or fail to adhere to medical device regulations, our financial results may be negatively affected.
Historically, our sales model has been to sell primarily through distributors rather than through our own sales force, with the notable exception of Brazil, France, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and the United Kingdom where we are selling directly, but, in the future, may utilize a hybrid sales model that includes both distributors and a direct sales effort. We believe that our reliance on distributors improves the economics of our business, as we do not carry the high fixed costs of a direct sales force in many of the countries in which our Motiva Implants are sold. If we are unable to maintain or enter into such distribution arrangements on acceptable terms, or at all, we may not be able to successfully commercialize our products in certain countries. Furthermore, distributors can choose the level of effort that they apply to selling our products relative to others in their portfolio. The selection, training, and compensation of a distributors’ sales personnel are within their control rather than our own and may vary significantly in quality from distributor to distributor.
In addition, although our contract terms require our distributors to comply with all applicable laws regarding the sale of our products, including anti-competition, anti-money laundering, sanctions laws and FDA regulations, we may not be able to ensure proper compliance. If our distributors fail to effectively market and sell our products in full compliance with applicable laws, our results of operations and business may suffer.
In certain large markets, we engage in direct sales efforts. We may fail to maintain and develop our direct sales force, and our revenues and financial outcomes could suffer as a result. Furthermore, our direct sales personnel may not effectively sell our products.
We have established a direct sales force for our business in Brazil, and we have implemented a direct sales strategy in France, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and the United Kingdom. We have hired and will need to retain and motivate a significant number of sales and marketing personnel in order to support our anticipated growth in these countries. There is significant competition for quality personnel experienced in such activities, including from companies with greater financial resources than ours. If we are not successful in our efforts to continue recruiting, retaining, and motivating such personnel, we may not be able to increase our revenues, or we may increase our expenses in greater measure than our revenues, negatively impacting our operating results.
We are also working on creating a direct sales structure and strategy in certain markets. We are working to put in place the correct legal and business structure to comply with taxation and operational requirements. These structures may not ultimately be implemented or, if implemented, be successful or effective and may not be able to increase our revenues or improve our gross margins. In addition, our expenses or tax related costs may increase in greater measure than our revenues, negatively impacting our operating results.

Furthermore, our sales force may operate independently with limited day-to-day oversight from management. They may engage in sales practices that increase certain risks to our business, including the risk of scrutiny from regulatory authorities and the risk that we violate anti-corruption regulations in one or more countries. These and other independent actions may result in unexpected costs, news that might impair our reputation or revenues, litigation in various jurisdictions, and/or sanctions. Any of these could impair the trading price of our shares and adversely impact our results .
If we are unable to train plastic surgeons on the safe and appropriate use of our products and branded surgeries, we may be unable to achieve our expected growth.
An important part of our sales process includes educating plastic surgeons about the benefits and advantages of our Motiva Implants and MotivaImagine products, and training them on the safe and appropriate use of our products. As part of our effort to educate and train plastic surgeons through our MotivaEdge educational platform, we completed 50 medical training sessions worldwide during 2017, and plan to complete approximately 70 medical training sessions worldwide during 2018. If we are unable to train potential new plastic surgeon customers at these medical training sessions, we may be unable to achieve our expected growth.
It is critical to the success of our commercialization efforts to train a sufficient number of plastic surgeons and provide them with adequate instruction in the appropriate use of our products and branded surgeries. This training process may take longer than expected and may therefore affect our ability to grow our business. Following completion of training, we rely on the trained plastic surgeons to advocate for our products and branded surgeries in the marketplace. Convincing plastic surgeons to dedicate the time and focus necessary for adequate training is challenging, and we cannot provide any assurances we will be successful in these efforts. If plastic surgeons are not properly trained, they may misuse or ineffectively use our products or branded surgeries. This may also result in, among other things, unsatisfactory patient outcomes, patient injury, negative publicity or lawsuits against us, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business and reputation.
In addition, we need to ensure that plastic surgeons are sufficiently educated our regarding our implants. For example, many metal implants, such as screws or artificial joints, produce an artifact when magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, is used to image the area in which the object resides. Our QInside Safety Technology microtransponder embedded in certain Motiva Implants contains metal and causes an artifact that can affect breast cancer screening using MRI, and this artifact is not present in other imaging modalities such as breast ultrasound and film or digital mammography. It is important that we educate physicians and patients of the risks associated with MRI artifacts and how to mitigate them if they choose to utilize Motiva Implants that contain a QInside microtransponder. If we fail to educate physicians and patients about any of these factors, they may make decisions regarding Motiva Implants without full knowledge of the risks and benefits or may view our Motiva Implants negatively.
There is no guarantee that the FDA or non-U.S. regulatory agencies will grant approval for our current or future products, and failure to obtain regulatory approvals in the United States and other international jurisdictions, or revocation of approvals in those jurisdictions, will prevent us from marketing our products.
We intend to seek additional distribution and marketing partners for Motiva Implants and may market specific products only in international markets. We have obtained a CE Mark for Motiva Implants and are therefore authorized to sell in the EU; however, in order to market in regions such as the Asia Pacific region and many other jurisdictions, we must obtain separate regulatory approvals. The approval procedures vary among countries and can involve additional clinical testing, and the time required to obtain approval may differ from that required to obtain the CE Mark or FDA approval. Moreover, clinical studies or manufacturing processes conducted in one country may not be accepted by regulatory authorities in other countries. Approval by the FDA does not ensure approval by regulatory authorities in other countries, and approval by one or more international regulatory authorities does not ensure approval by regulatory authorities in other countries or by the FDA. However, a failure or delay in obtaining regulatory approval in one country may have a negative effect on the regulatory process in others. An international regulatory approval process may include all of the risks associated with obtaining FDA approval. We may not obtain international regulatory approvals on a timely basis, if at all. We may not be able to file for regulatory approvals and even if we file we may not receive necessary approvals to commercialize our products in any market.
Before obtaining regulatory approval for the sale of a planned product, we may be required to conduct extensive preclinical and clinical studies to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our planned products in human patients. Clinical studies can be expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete, and are uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or more of our clinical studies could occur at any stage of testing. In connection with the initiation of a clinical study in the United States, we filed an IDE application in 2017, which was approved in March 2018. Our first patient was enrolled in April 2018, and we anticipate completing enrollment in early 2019. Our ongoing U.S. IDE trial may take longer to enroll than anticipated, may be stopped for unforeseen safety issues or may not be

17

Table of Contents

successful in meeting its endpoints, in which case our U.S. regulatory pathway would require subsequent additional clinical trials.
Numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, preclinical and clinical studies could occur, which would delay or prevent our ability to receive regulatory approval or commercialize Motiva Implants or any of our planned products, including the following:
clinical studies may produce negative or inconclusive results, and we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical studies or abandon product development programs;
the number of patients required for clinical studies may be larger than we anticipate, enrollment in these clinical studies may be insufficient or slower than we anticipate, or patients may drop out of these clinical studies at a higher rate than we anticipate;
the cost of clinical studies may be greater than we anticipate;
third-party contractors may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us in a timely manner, or at all;
we might suspend or terminate clinical studies of our planned products for various reasons, including a finding that our planned products have unanticipated serious side effects or other unexpected characteristics, or that the study subjects are being exposed to unacceptable health risks;
regulators may not approve our proposed clinical development plans;
Regulators or independent institutional review boards, or IRBs, may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical study or conduct a clinical study at a prospective study site;
regulators or IRBs may require that we, or our investigators, suspend or terminate clinical studies for various reasons, including noncompliance with regulatory requirements;
regulators in countries where Motiva Implants are currently marketed may require that we suspend commercial distribution if there is noncompliance with regulatory requirements or safety concerns;
regulators in countries where Motiva Implants are currently marketed may suspend commercial distribution of silicone breast implants due to safety or other concerns generally applicable to the product category;
the supply or quality of our planned products or other materials necessary to conduct clinical studies of our planned products may be insufficient or inadequate; and/or
the enactment of new regulatory requirements in Europe under the new Medical Device Regulation may make approval times longer and standards more difficult to pass .
If we or any future collaboration partner are required to conduct additional clinical trials or other testing of Motiva Implants or any planned products beyond those that we contemplate, those clinical studies or other testing may not be successfully completed, if the results of these studies or tests are not positive or are only modestly positive or if they raise safety concerns, we may:
be delayed in obtaining marketing approvals for Motiva Implants or our planned products;
not obtain marketing approval at all;
obtain approval for indications that are not as broad as intended;
have a product removed from the market after obtaining marketing approval;
be subject to additional post-marketing testing requirements; and/or
be subject to restrictions on how the product is distributed or used.
Even if we obtain regulatory approvals or clearances in a jurisdiction, our products may be removed from the market due to a variety of factors, including adverse events, recalls, suspension of regulatory clearance to sell, or other factors. For example, during the summer of 2016 while we were transitioning from one notified body to another, our CE Mark for Motiva Implants was temporarily not in force. We expect that the initial U.S. approval will be subject to a lengthy and expensive follow-up period, during which we must monitor patients enrolled in clinical studies and collect data on their safety outcomes. Even if FDA approval is obtained, FDA has authority to impose postmarket approval conditions, which can include (i) restrictions on device’s sale, distribution, or use, (ii) continuing evaluation of the device’s safety and efficacy, (iii) additional warning/hazard labeling requirements, (iv) significant record management, (v) periodic reporting requirements, and (vi) any other requirements the FDA determines necessary to provide reasonable assurance of the device’s safety and effectiveness. Completion of this follow-up study, in a manner which results in data sufficient to maintain FDA approval, is subject to multiple risks, many of which are outside of our control. These include, but are not limited to, our ability to fund the ongoing study from our operations or via additional fundraising; study participants’ willingness and ability to return for follow-up study visits; and maintenance of a suitable study database over a long period of time. Even if completed and appropriately evaluated, the study follow-up may reveal safety or other issues that

18

Table of Contents

impact the approved labeling, or may result in withdrawal of Motiva Implants from the marketplace in the United States or elsewhere.
Although we launched Motiva Implants commercially in October 2010 and have sold over 446,000 units to date in various countries outside the United States, we do not have as much post-market surveillance data as our competitors and may not have clearly identified all possible or actual risks of our products. Furthermore, if our clinical trials do not produce patient data that compares favorably with breast implants that are already on the market, physicians and patients may opt not to use our products, and our business would suffer.
Our product development costs will also increase if we experience delays to our clinical trials or approvals. We do not know whether any clinical studies will begin as planned, will need to be restructured, or will be completed on schedule, or at all.
Significant clinical study delays could allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do, which would impair our ability to commercialize our planned products and harm our business and results of operations.
Motiva Implants are not currently approved for commercial sale in the United States. Obtaining such approval is costly and time consuming, and we may not obtain the regulatory approval required to sell our products in the United States.
Neither we, nor any future collaboration partner, can commercialize Motiva Implants in the United States without first obtaining regulatory approval for the product from the FDA. In the EU and other countries, we previously obtained a CE Mark, before making Motiva Implants available for commercial sale. FDA guidance on silicone breast implants mandates approval via the PMA process. Extensive preclinical and clinical testing will be required to support the PMA. At least one well-controlled clinical trial is required for approval, such as the one we began in April 2018, which will require us to commit significant financial and personnel resources. Additionally, we will be required to commit to significant and costly post-approval requirements, which will include follow-up of our clinical trial patients for up to ten years, creation of a patient registry, and/or other studies, and implementation of training programs for physicians. We may be unable to fund, enroll, or complete such trials in a timely fashion, or at all, and we may have an insufficient number of enrolled patients follow up as instructed. The results of clinical studies may not be favorable enough to support marketing approval in the United States , or may raise other questions (pertaining, for example, to product safety or effectiveness) that jeopardizes our current approvals for sale in other territories. The FDA approval process will take at least several years to complete, and FDA approval may never be obtained. We must also demonstrate that our manufacturing facilities, processes and controls are adequate to support FDA approval and that our clinical investigators complied with good clinical practices in the conduct of our Motiva Implant clinical trial.
Furthermore, FDA regulatory approval is not a guarantee, and the filing and approval process itself is expensive and may take several years. The FDA also has substantial discretion in the approval process. Despite the time and expense exerted, failure may occur at any stage, and we could encounter problems that cause us to abandon or repeat clinical studies , including our ongoing PMA clinical trial that commenced in April 2018. The FDA can delay, limit, or deny approval of a product candidate for many reasons, including, but not limited, to:
a product candidate may not be deemed to be safe and effective;
FDA officials may not find the data from clinical and preclinical studies sufficient;
the FDA may not approve our or our suppliers’ processes or facilities; or
the FDA may change its approval policies or adopt new regulations.
If Motiva Implants, or our future products, fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy in further clinical studies that may be required for U.S. approval, or do not gain regulatory approval, our business and results of operations will be harmed.
Moreover, obtaining regulatory approval for marketing of our products in one country does not ensure we will be able to obtain regulatory approval in other countries, while a failure or delay in obtaining regulatory approval in one country may have a negative effect on the regulatory process in other countries.
Even if clinical trials demonstrate acceptable safety and efficacy for Motiva Implants in some patient populations, the FDA or similar regulatory authorities outside the United States may not approve the marketing of Motiva Implants or may approve it with restrictions on the label, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
It is possible the FDA or similar regulatory authorities may not consider the results of our clinical trials to be sufficient for approval of Motiva Implants for our desired indications for use. Guidance issued by the FDA in 2006 suggests that a

19

Table of Contents

single well-controlled study is required for approval of a new silicone breast implant. The FDA may nonetheless require that we conduct additional clinical studies, possibly using a different clinical study design.
Moreover, even if the FDA or other regulatory authorities approve the marketing of Motiva Implants, the approval may include additional restrictions on the label that could make Motiva Implants less attractive to physicians and patients compared to other products that may be approved for broader indications, which could limit potential sales of Motiva Implants.
If we fail to obtain FDA or other regulatory approval of Motiva Implants, or if the approval is narrower than what we seek, it could impair our ability to realize value from Motiva Implants, and therefore may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
Commercial success of Motiva Implants in the United States or elsewhere depends on our ability to accurately forecast customer demand and manufacture sufficient quantities of product in the implant sizes that patients and physicians request, and to manage inventory effectively and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
Manufacturing of silicone breast implants requires costly capital equipment and a highly-skilled workforce. There is a significant lead time to build and certify a new manufacturing facility. Until 2017, we had one manufacturing facility in Costa Rica, and we experienced inventory shortages from time-to-time that impaired our ability to meet market demand. In March 2017, our second manufacturing facility, also located in Costa Rica, became operational, and we received certification under the multi-country MDSAP protocol and began shipping saleable product . Although we believe our new, larger manufacturing facility, in combination in our first facility, will give us adequate manufacturing capacity to meet demand for at least the next two years, we have, in the past, been unable to fill all incoming orders to meet growing demand. In addition, if we obtain FDA approval, we will likely need to obtain additional manufacturing capacity prior to any commercialization of our Motiva Implants in the United States. If demand increases faster than we expect, or if we are unable to produce the quantity of goods that we expect with our current facilities, we may not be able to grow revenue at an optimal rate. There may be other negative effects from supply shortages, including loss of our reputation in the marketplace and a negative impact on our relationships with our distributors.
On the other hand, if demand for our products declines, or if market supply surpasses demand, we may not be able to reduce manufacturing expenses or overhead costs proportionately. We have invested significantly in our manufacturing capacity in order to vertically integrate our business. If an increase in supply outpaces the increase in market demand, or if demand decreases, the resulting oversupply could adversely impact our sales and result in the underutilization of our manufacturing capacity, higher inventory carrying costs and associated working capital, changes in revenue mix, and/or price erosion, any of which would lower our margins and adversely impact our financial results.
If we fail to compete effectively against our competitors, many of whom have greater resources than we have, our revenues and results of operations may be negatively affected.
Alternatives exist for Motiva Implants and for our other products, and we will likely face competition with respect to any planned products that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future from major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies, medical device companies and biotechnology companies worldwide. There are several large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market silicone breast implants. We also face competition from manufacturers of saline-filled breast implants, and we see emerging competition from non-implant breast augmentation techniques such as hyaluronic acid injection and novel fat grafting methodologies. Any of these may present competitive barriers to Motiva Implants.
Our leading competitors are large, multi-national companies with significant resources and capabilities. Three of these companies, Sientra, Inc., Mentor Worldwide LLC (a division of Johnson & Johnson), and Allergan plc, have conducted large prospective clinical studies that started in the United States in 2002, 2000 and 1998, respectively, the data from which they use extensively to promote their products. While we plan to use a portion of the net proceeds from the current offering to conduct such a study, to date we have not conducted a study designed in such a way as to support a PMA application in the United States. This can put us at a disadvantage when promoting our products to physicians and patients, even outside the United States. In addition, the significant financial and staff resources and brand recognition that our competitors possess mean they may be able to compete with us regardless of the differentiating features of our products. If we are not successful in capturing market share, even outside the United States, or if physicians or patients do not perceive our products to be safer or more favorable, our revenues and/or our operating margins may be significantly impaired.

Table of Contents

In addition, manufacturers of competitive products may reduce prices for their competing products in an effort to gain or retain market share, and undermine the value proposition that Motiva Implants might otherwise be able to offer to customers. Potential competitors also include academic institutions, government agencies and other public and private research organizations that conduct research, seek patent protection and establish collaborative arrangements for research, development, manufacturing and commercialization. These competitors may develop new technologies that are superior to our products or replace silicone.
Smaller or early stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large and established companies. These third parties may compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified technical and management personnel, establishing clinical study sites and patient registration for clinical studies, as well as in acquiring technologies complementary to, or necessary for, our programs.
We may be subject to substantial warranty or product liability claims or other litigation in the ordinary course of business that may adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.
We face an inherent risk of product liability exposure related to the sale of Motiva Implants and any planned products in clinical studies. The marketing, sale and use of Motiva Implants and our planned products could lead to the filing of product liability claims against us if someone alleges that our products failed to perform as designed or caused significant adverse events in patients. We may also be subject to liability for a misunderstanding of, or inappropriate reliance upon, the information we provide. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against claims that Motiva Implants or our planned products caused injuries, we may incur substantial liabilities. Regardless of merit or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:
decreased demand for any planned products we may develop;
injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention;
withdrawal of patients from clinical studies or cancellation of studies;
significant costs to defend the related litigation and distraction to our management team;
substantial monetary awards to plaintiffs;
loss of revenue; and
the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.
We currently hold $25 million in product liability insurance coverage, which may not be adequate to cover all liabilities we may incur. Insurance coverage is increasingly expensive. We may not be able to maintain insurance coverage at a reasonable cost or in an amount adequate to satisfy any liability that may arise.
Negative publicity, product defects and any resulting litigation concerning our products or our competitors’ products could harm our reputation and reduce demand for silicone breast impl ants, either of which could negatively impact our financial results.
The responses of potential patients, physicians, the news media, legislative and regulatory bodies and others to information about complications or alleged complications of our products, or products liability litigation against us or our competitors, could result in negative publicity and could materially reduce market acceptance of our products. These responses or any investigations and potential resulting negative publicity may have a material adverse effect on our business and reputation and negatively impact our financial condition, results of operations or the market price of our common shares. In addition, significant negative publicity could result in an increased number of product liability claims against us.
Counterfeit products may be represented as ours, which could compete with our genuine products and may also expose us to risks associated with adverse events and product liability.
With respect to our major competitors’ branded products, we routinely see counterfeit versions in the marketplace, which are packaged and represented as having been made by major companies. This is particularly common in emerging markets, where sensitivity to price is higher and regulatory enforcement is under-resourced. While we are not aware of any counterfeit Motiva Implants in the market, such products may appear as our market share and average selling price grow. These counterfeit products are typically manufactured with significantly lower quality than the products they are claimed to be, and in some cases may be manufactured with silicones that are not medical-grade. They may expose patients to significant adverse event risks, and there is a risk that certain adverse events with counterfeit products may be attributed to our genuine products. This could reduce demand for our products, result in negative publicity, or otherwise impact our business and the price of our shares.

The loss of key members of our executive management team could adversely affect our business.
Our success in implementing our business strategy depends largely on the skills, experience and performance of key members of our executive management team and others in key management positions, including Juan José Chacón Quirós, our Chief Executive Officer, Salvador Dada, our Chief Operating Officer, and Roberto de Mezerville, our Chief Technology Officer. The collective efforts of each of these persons, and others working with them as a team, are critical as we continue to develop our tests and technologies and pursue our research and development and sales programs. As a result of the difficulty in locating qualified new management, the loss or incapacity of existing members of our executive management team could adversely affect our operations. If we were to lose one or more of these key employees, we could experience difficulties in finding qualified successors, competing effectively, developing our technologies and implementing our business strategy. We do not have “key person” life insurance on our senior executives, and the loss of any of the key members of our team would have a negative impact to our business and financial results.
In addition, we rely on collaborators, consultants and advisors, including scientific and clinical advisors, to assist us in formulating our research and development and commercialization strategy. Our collaborators, consultants and advisors are generally employed by employers other than us and may have commitments under agreements with other entities that may limit their availability to us.
The loss of a key employee, the failure of a key employee to perform in his or her current position or our inability to attract and retain skilled employees could result in our inability to continue to grow our business or to implement our business strategy.
Various factors outside our direct control may adversely affect manufacturing and supply of our breast implants, tissue expanders and other products.
We currently manufacture Motiva Implants at our facilities in the Coyol Free Zone, Alajuela, Costa Rica, under the multi-country MDSAP protocol . Our Divina scanners are manufactured from components sourced globally, with final assembly in Alajuela, Costa Rica. Our QInside Safety Technology microtransponders are manufactured by contract manufacturers with final testing and packaging at a manufacturing supplier facility in Regensburg, Germany; additional inspection of the units happens in our facilities in Coyol, Costa Rica, prior to approval for inclusion in Motiva Implants . We believe that we currently have adequate manufacturing capacity for all of our products sufficient to meet our demand forecasts for at least the next two years. If demand for our current products and our planned products increases more rapidly than we anticipate, or if we secure regulatory approval to commercialize our products in additional geographies , we will need to either expand our manufacturing capabilities or outsource to other manufacturers. We currently rely upon third-party contract manufacturing organizations to manufacture and supply components for our Divina scanners and QInside Safety Technology microtransponders. The manufacture of these products in compliance with ISO standards and the FDA’s regulations requires significant expertise and capital investment, including the development of advanced manufacturing techniques and process controls. Manufacturers of medical device products often encounter difficulties in production, including difficulties with production costs and yields, quality control, quality assurance testing, shortages of qualified personnel, as well as compliance with strictly enforced FDA requirements, other federal and state regulatory requirements, and foreign regulations.
We currently purchase components for the Divina scanners and QInside Safety Technology microtransponders under purchase orders and do not have long-term contracts with most of the suppliers of these materials. In addition, we rely on NuSil Technology, LLC, or NuSil, as the sole supplier of medical-grade silicone used in our Motiva Implants as well as other products that we manufacture under contract to other customers. See “-We rely on a single-source, third-party supplier for medical-grade silicone, which is the primary raw material used in these products. If this supplier were to increase prices for these raw materials over time or experience interruptions in their ability to supply us with this raw material, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.” If suppliers were to delay or stop producing our components, or if the prices they charge us were to increase significantly, or if they elected not to sell to us, we would need to identify other suppliers. We could experience delays in manufacturing our products while finding another acceptable supplier, which could impact our results of operations. The changes could also result in increased costs associated with qualifying the new materials and in increased operating costs. Further, any prolonged disruption in a supplier’s operations could have a significant negative impact on our ability to manufacture and deliver products in a timely manner.

The manufacturing, sterilization and distribution of our Motiva Implants and other products are technically challenging. Changes that our suppliers may make, or additional requirements from regulatory agencies, outside of our direct control can have an impact on our processes, on quality and on the successful delivery of products to our customers. Mistakes and mishandling are not uncommon and can affect supply and delivery. Some of these risks include:
failure to complete sterilization on time or in compliance with the required regulatory standards;
transportation and import and export risk, particularly given the global nature of our supply and distribution chains;
delays in analytical results or failure of analytical techniques that we depend on for quality control and release of products;
natural or other disasters, labor disputes, financial distress, lack of raw material supply, issues with facilities and equipment or other forms of disruption to business operations affecting our manufacturer or its suppliers;
latent defects that may become apparent after products have been released and that may result in a recall of such products;
contamination of our raw materials or manufactured products; and
inclusion of vendors of raw materials not in compliance with ISO-13485 requirements.
Some of the components used in our Motiva Implants are currently sole-sourced, and substitutes for these components might not be obtained easily or may require substantial design or manufacturing modifications. Any significant problem experienced by one of our sole source suppliers may result in a delay or interruption in the supply of components to us because the number of third-party manufacturers with the necessary manufacturing and regulatory expertise and facilities is limited and certification of a new supplier may be complex and time consuming. Any delay or interruption would likely lead to a delay or interruption in our manufacturing operations. The inclusion of substitute components must meet our product specifications and could require us to qualify the new supplier with the appropriate regulatory authorities. The added time and cost to arrange for alternative suppliers could have a material adverse effect on our business. New manufacturers of any planned product would be required to qualify under applicable regulatory requirements and would need to have sufficient rights under applicable intellectual property laws to the method of manufacturing the planned product. Obtaining the necessary FDA or international approvals or other qualifications under applicable regulatory requirements and ensuring non-infringement of third-party intellectual property rights could result in a significant interruption of supply and could require the new manufacturer to bear significant additional costs that may be passed on to us.
Any disruption at our existing facilities could adversely affect our business and operating results.
Our headquarters are located in Costa Rica, and all of our main manufacturing activities are conducted in two ISO-13485 and GMP compliant manufacturing facilities in Costa Rica through Establishment Labs, S.A. Despite our efforts to maintain and safeguard our manufacturing facilities, including acquiring insurance and adopting maintenance and health and safety protocols, vandalism, terrorism or a natural or other disaster, such as earthquake, volcanic activity, fire or flood, could damage or destroy our inventory of finished goods, cause substantial delays in our operations and manufacturing, result in the loss of key information and cause us to incur additional expenses. Our insurance may not cover our losses in any particular case. In addition, regardless of the level of insurance coverage, damage to our facilities may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We have made multiple acquisitions in the past, and in the future we may acquire other businesses or form joint ventures or make investments in other companies or technologies. If we are not successful in integrating these businesses, as well as identifying and controlling risks associated with the past operations of these businesses, we may incur significant costs, receive penalties or other sanctions from various regulatory agencies, and/or incur significant diversions of management time and attention.
We believe our business growth will be enhanced if we continually seek opportunities to enhance and broaden our product offerings. As part of our business strategy, we may pursue acquisitions or licenses of assets, or acquisitions of businesses. We also may pursue strategic alliances and joint ventures that leverage our core technology and industry experience to expand our product offerings or sales and distribution resources. We have acquired companies in a variety of countries, including Belgium, Brazil, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and France. We have also acquired and licensed assets.
We may do more of these types of transactions in the future and may also form strategic alliances and joint ventures. We may not be able to find suitable partners or acquisition candidates, and we may not be able to complete such transactions on favorable terms, if at all. If we make any acquisitions, we may not be able to integrate these acquisitions successfully into our existing business, and we could assume unknown or contingent liabilities. Any future acquisitions

23

Table of Contents

also could result in significant write-offs or the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities, any of which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Integration of an acquired company may also disrupt ongoing operations and require management resources that would otherwise focus on developing our existing business. We may experience losses related to investments in other companies, which could have a negative effect on our results of operations. We may not identify or complete these transactions in a timely manner, on a cost-effective basis, or at all, and we may not realize the anticipated benefits of any acquisition, license, strategic alliance or joint venture. To finance such a transaction, we may choose to issue common shares as consideration, which would dilute the ownership of our shareholders. If the price of our common shares is low or volatile, we may not be able to acquire other companies or fund a joint venture project using our shares as consideration. Alternatively, it may be necessary for us to raise additional funds for acquisitions through public or private financings. Additional funds may not be available on terms that are favorable to us, or at all.
We do not know whether we will be able to successfully integrate any acquired business, product or technology. The success of any given acquisition may depend on our ability to retain any key employees related thereto, and we may not be successful at retaining or integrating such key personnel. Integrating any business, product or technology we acquire could be expensive and time-consuming, disrupt our ongoing business, impact our liquidity, and/or distract our management. If we are unable to integrate any acquired businesses, products or technologies effectively, our business may suffer. Whether as a result of unsuccessful integration, unanticipated costs, including those associated with assumed liabilities and indemnification obligations, negative accounting impact, or other factors, we may not realize the economic benefits we anticipate from acquisitions. In addition, any amortization or charges resulting from the costs of acquisitions could increase our expenses.
If changes in the economy and/or consumer spending, consumer preference and other trends reduce consumer demand for our products, our sales and profitability would suffer.
We are subject to the risks arising from adverse changes in general economic and market conditions. Certain elective procedures, including breast augmentation, are typically not covered by insurance. Adverse changes in the economy may cause consumers to reassess their spending choices, which could have an adverse effect on consumer spending, reduce the demand for these surgeries, and therefore have an adverse effect on our revenues. Furthermore, consumer preferences and trends may shift due to a variety of factors, including changes in demographic and social trends, public health initiatives and product innovations, which may reduce consumer demand for our products.
Fluctuations in insurance costs and availability, and future insurance requirements could adversely affect our profitability or our risk management profile.
We hold a number of insurance policies, including product liability insurance, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, general liability insurance, property insurance and workers’ compensation insurance. If the costs of maintaining adequate insurance coverage increase significantly in the future, our operating results could be adversely affected. Likewise, if any of our current insurance coverage should become unavailable to us or become economically impractical, we would be required to operate our business without indemnity from commercial insurance providers. If we operate our business without insurance, we could be responsible for paying claims or judgments against us that would have otherwise been covered by insurance, which would adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.
Continued international expansion of our business will expose us to business, regulatory, political, operational, financial and economic risks associated with doing business internationally.
Our products are currently sold in over 60 countries, and we operate subsidiaries in the United States , Costa Rica, Brazil, Belgium, France, Sweden and Switzerland. Our business strategy contemplates continued international expansion, including partnering with medical device distributors, and introducing Motiva Implants and other planned products outside the United States . The sale and shipment of our products internationally, as well as the purchase of components from international sources, subjects us to potential trade, import and export, and customs regulations and laws.
Compliance with these regulations and laws is costly and exposes us to penalties for non-compliance. Any failure to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations could impact us in a variety of ways that include, but are not limited to, significant criminal, civil and administrative penalties, including imprisonment of individuals, fines and penalties, denial of export or import privileges, seizure of shipments, restrictions on certain business activities and exclusion or debarment from government contracting. Also, the failure to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations could result in the disruption of our shipping and sales activities.

In addition, several of the countries in which we sell our products or conduct our operations are, to some degree, subject to political, economic or social instability. Doing business in Costa Rica and other countries outside the United States involves a number of other risks, including:
compliance with the free zone regime regulations under which the manufacturing sites operate;
different regulatory requirements for device approvals in international markets;
multiple, conflicting and changing laws and regulations such as tariffs and tax laws, export and import restrictions, employment laws, regulatory requirements and other governmental approvals, permits and licenses;
potential failure by us or our distributors to obtain and/or maintain regulatory approvals for the sale or use of our products in various countries;
difficulties in managing global operations;
logistics and regulations associated with shipping products, including infrastructure conditions and transportation delays;
limits on our ability to penetrate international markets if our distributors do not execute successfully;
governmental price controls, differing reimbursement regimes and other market regulations;
financial risks, such as longer payment cycles, difficulty enforcing contracts and collecting accounts receivable, and exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations;
reduced protection for intellectual property rights, or lack of them in certain jurisdictions, forcing more reliance on our trade secrets, if available;
economic weakness, political and economic instability, including wars, terrorism and political unrest, outbreak of disease, boycotts, curtailment of trade and other business restrictions;
the March 2017 Article 50 notice of withdrawal that formally began the process of a British exit from the EU, including with respect to its effect on the value of the British pound relative to other currencies;
failure to comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, including its books and records provisions and its anti-bribery provisions, by maintaining accurate information and control over sales activities and distributors’ activities;
unexpected changes in tariffs, trade barriers and regulatory requirements;
compliance with tax, employment, immigration and labor laws;
taxes, including withholding of payroll taxes;
currency fluctuations, which could result in increased operating expenses and reduced revenue, and other obligations incident to doing business in another country;
workforce uncertainty in countries where labor unrest is more common than in the United States;
production shortages resulting from any events affecting raw material supply or manufacturing capabilities abroad; and
business and shipping interruptions resulting from natural or other disasters including earthquakes, volcanic activity, hurricanes, floods and fires.
Any of these risks, if encountered, could harm our future international expansion and operations and, consequently, have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our failure to adequately protect personal information in compliance with evolving legal requirements could harm our business.
In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store sensitive data, including legally protected patient health information, credit card information and personally identifiable information. W e collect this kind of information on our customers for purposes of servicing potential warranty claims and for post-marketing safety vigilance. These data protection and privacy-related laws and regulations are evolving and may result in ever-increasing regulatory and public scrutiny and escalating levels of enforcement and sanctions.
There are a number of state, federal and international laws protecting the privacy and security of health information and personal data. As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act 2009, or ARRA, Congress amended the privacy and security provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA. HIPAA imposes limitations on the use and disclosure of an individual’s protected health information by certain health care providers, health care clearinghouses, and health insurance plans, collectively referred to as covered entities, that involve the creation, use, maintenance or disclosure of protected health information . The HIPAA amendments also impose compliance obligations and corresponding penalties for non-compliance on individuals and entities that provide services to health care providers and other covered entities, collectively referred to as business associates. ARRA also made significant increases in the penalties for improper use or disclosure of an individual’s protected health information under HIPAA and extended

25

Table of Contents

enforcement authority to state attorneys general. The amendments also create notification requirements for individuals whose protected health information has been inappropriately accessed or disclosed, notification requirements to federal regulators and in some cases, notification to local and national media. Notification is not required under HIPAA if the health information that is improperly used or disclosed is deemed secured in accordance with encryption or other standards developed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS. Most states have laws requiring notification of affected individuals and state regulators in the event of a breach of personal information, which is a broader class of information than the protected health information protected by HIPAA. Many state laws impose significant data security requirements, such as encryption or mandatory contractual terms to ensure ongoing protection of personal information.
In addition, even when HIPAA does not apply, according to the FTC, failing to take appropriate steps to keep consumers’ personal information secure constitutes unfair acts or practices in or affecting commerce in violation of Section 5(a) of the FTCA, 15 U.S.C § 45(a). The FTC expects a company’s data security measures to be reasonable and appropriate in light of the sensitivity and volume of consumer information it holds, the size and complexity of its business, and the cost of available tools to improve security and reduce vulnerabilities. Medical data is considered sensitive data that merits stronger safeguards. The FTC’s guidance for appropriately securing consumers’ personal information is similar to what is required by the HIPAA Security Rule.
Many foreign countries and governmental bodies, including the EU, Canada, Australia and other relevant jurisdictions, have laws and regulations concerning the collection and use of personal or sensitive data obtained from their residents or by businesses operating within their jurisdiction. For example, the European Commission recently adopted the General Data Protection Regulation, or the GDPR, effective on May 25, 2018, that will supersede current EU data protection legislation, impose more stringent EU data protection requirements and provide for greater penalties for noncompliance. The GDPR applies to any company established in the EU as well as to those outside the EU if they collect and use personal data in connection with the offering goods or services to individuals in the EU or the monitoring of their behavior. The GDPR enhances data protection obligations for processors and controllers of personal data, including, for example, expanded disclosures about how personal information is to be used, limitations on retention of information, mandatory data breach notification requirements and onerous new obligations on services providers. Non-compliance with the GDPR can trigger steep fines of up to €20 million or 4% of total worldwide annual revenues, whichever is higher. Given the breadth and depth of changes in data protection obligations, preparing to meet the GDPR’s requirements before its application on May 25, 2018 requires time, resources and a review of the technology and systems currently in use against the GDPR’s requirements.
We are at risk of enforcement actions taken by certain EU data protection authorities until such point in time that we may be able to ensure that all transfers of personal data to us from the European Economic Area are conducted in compliance with all applicable regulatory obligations, the guidance of data protection authorities and evolving best practices. We may find it necessary to establish systems to maintain personal data originating from the EU in the European Economic Area, which may involve substantial expense and may cause us to need to divert resources from other aspects of our business, all of which may adversely affect our business.
Our failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations, or to protect such data, could result in enforcement actions against us, including fines, imprisonment of company officials and public censure, claims for damages by end-customers and other affected individuals, damage to our reputation and loss of goodwill, any of which could harm on our operations, financial performance, and business. Evolving and changing definitions of personal data and personal information, within the European Union, the United States , and elsewhere, may limit or inhibit our ability to operate or expand our business, including limiting strategic partnerships that may involve the sharing of data. Moreover, if the relevant laws and regulations change, or are interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our data practices or the operation of our products, we may need to expend resources in order to change our business operations, data practices, or the manner in which our products operate. Even the perception of privacy concerns, whether or not valid, may harm our reputation and inhibit adoption of our products.
If we are not able to satisfy data protection, security, privacy, and other government- and industry-specific requirements, our business could be harmed.
There are a number of data protection, security, privacy and other government- and industry-specific requirements, including those that require companies to notify individuals of data security incidents involving certain types of personal data. Security compromises experienced by other companies, by our customers or by us may lead to public disclosures, which could harm our reputation, erode customer confidence in the effectiveness of our security measures, negatively impact our other products and our ability to attract new customers. As we expand into new regions, we will need to comply with new requirements. If we cannot comply or if we incur a violation in one or more of these requirements, our growth could be adversely impacted, and we could incur significant liability.

Risks Related to the Operation of Our Business
We expect to significantly increase the size of our organization; as a result, we may encounter difficulties in managing our growth, which could disrupt our operations and/or increase our net losses.
As of March 31, 2018, we had 397 em ployees. Over the next several years, we expect to experience significant growth in the number of our employees and the scope of our operations, particularly in the areas of manufacturing, regulatory affairs, clinical and sales and marketing. We also intend to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures, which may require additional personnel. Such growth could place a strain on our administrative and operational infrastructure, and/or our managerial abilities, and we may not be able to make improvements to our management information and control systems in an efficient or timely manner. We may discover deficiencies in existing systems and controls.
Many of these employees will be in countries outside of our corporate headquarters, which adds additional complexity. To manage our anticipated future growth, we must continue to implement and improve our managerial, operational and financial systems, expand our facilities and continue to recruit and train additional qualified personnel. We may not be able to effectively manage these activities. The physical expansion of our operations may lead to significant costs and may divert our management and business development resources. Future growth would impose significant added responsibilities on members of management, including:
managing our clinical trials effectively, which we anticipate being conducted at numerous clinical sites;
identifying, recruiting, maintaining, motivating and integrating additional employees with the expertise and experience we will require, in multiple countries;
managing our internal development efforts effectively while complying with our contractual obligations to licensors, licensees, contractors and other third parties;
managing additional relationships with various distributors, suppliers, and other third parties;
improving our managerial, development, operational and finance reporting systems and procedures; and
expanding our facilities.
Our failure to accomplish any of these tasks could prevent us from growing successfully. Any inability to manage growth could delay the execution of our business plans or disrupt our operations. We may also be exposed or subject to additional unforeseen or undisclosed liabilities as well as increased levels of indebtedness.
Any future distribution or commercialization agreements we may enter into with respect to our current or planned products may place the development of these products outside our control, or may otherwise be on terms unfavorable to us.
We may enter into additional distribution or commercialization agreements with third parties with respect to our current or planned products, for commercialization in or outside the United States . Our likely collaborators for any distribution, marketing, licensing or other collaboration arrangements include large and mid-size medical device and diagnostic companies, regional and national medical device and diagnostic companies, and distribution or group purchasing organizations. We will have limited control over the amount and timing of resources that our collaborators dedicate to the development or commercialization of our planned products. Our ability to generate revenue from these arrangements will depend in part on our collaborators’ abilities to successfully perform the functions assigned to them in these arrangements.
Collaborations may be terminated and, if terminated, may result in a need for additional capital to pursue further development or commercialization of the applicable planned products. Collaborators may own or co-own intellectual property covering our products that results from our collaboration with them. In such cases, we would not have the exclusive right to commercialize such intellectual property.
Any termination or disruption of collaborations could result in delays in the development of planned products, increases in our costs to develop the planned products or the termination of development of a planned product.
We rely on third parties to conduct certain components of our clinical studies, and those third parties may not perform satisfactorily, including failing to meet deadlines for the completion of such studies, which could interfere with or delay our ability to get regulatory approval or commercialize our products.
We rely on third parties, such as contract research organizations, or CROs, clinical data management organizations, medical institutions and clinical investigators, to perform various functions for our clinical trials. Our reliance on these third parties for clinical development activities reduces our control over these activities but does not relieve us of our responsibilities. We remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinical studies is conducted in accordance with the

27

Table of Contents

general investigational plan and protocols for the study. Moreover, the International Council for Harmonization,or ICH, and the FDA require us to comply with standards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical studies to ensure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of patients in clinical studies are protected. Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these third parties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical studies in accordance with regulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, regulatory approvals for our planned products and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our planned products.
Our results of operations could be affected by fluctuations in currency rates.
We present our results of operations in U.S. dollars, which is our reporting currency. However, as of December 31, 2017 , the majority of our revenues are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar - primarily the British pound, the euro, and the Brazilian real. As of December 31, 2017 , the majority of our expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars or in Costa Rican colons, which are linked to the U.S. dollar. In the future, we expect to have significant revenues and expenses denominated in these non-U.S. currencies. As such, unfavorable fluctuations in currency exchange rates could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
Because our combined consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, we must translate revenues, expenses and income, as well as assets and liabilities, into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect during or at the end of each reporting period. Therefore, changes in the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to the British pound, the euro, and the Brazilian real will affect our revenues, operating income and the value of balance sheet items originally denominated in other currencies. These changes would cause our growth in consolidated earnings stated in U.S. dollars to be higher or lower than our growth in local currency when compared against other periods. We do not currently engage in currency hedging arrangements to protect us from fluctuations in the exchange rates of the euro and other currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar (and/or from inflation of such currencies), and we may be exposed to material adverse effects from such movements. We cannot predict any future trends in rates of inflation or exchange rates of other currencies against the U.S. dollar, and there can be no assurance that any contractual provisions will offset their impact, or that any future currency hedging activities will be successful.
We have significant exposure to the economic and political situations in emerging market countries, and developments in these countries could materially impact our financial results, or our business more generally.
Many of the countries in which our products are sold are emerging markets. Our global growth strategy contemplates the expansion of our existing sales activities in Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia-Pacific region as well as North America. Our exposure to emerging markets has increased in recent years, as have the number and importance of our distributor arrangements. Economic and political developments in Brazil and other emerging markets, including economic crises, currency inflation, or political instability, have had in the past, and may have in the future, a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, as these markets continue to grow, competitors may seek to enter these markets and existing market participants will likely try to aggressively protect or increase their market shares. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced margins and our inability to gain or hold market share, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
The political situation in the United States can affect the ability of our company to conduct business in certain areas or countries if new trade conditions are imposed or enforced by the U.S. government.
There could be negative consequences to our company’s revenue if the U.S. government unexpectedly changes its trade policies towards determined geographies or countries. These policy changes can include such things as trade barriers, which serve to limit or prevent international trade. The U.S. government may request additional funds or tariffs in exchange for the right to export items into the country. Tariffs or quotas may be used to protect domestic producers from foreign competition. Changes may include the modification or withdrawal of free trade agreements already in place. This also can have a large effect on the profits of our company because it either cuts revenues as a result of a tax on imports/exports or restricts the amount of revenues that can be earned.
Our operations involve hazardous materials and we and third parties with whom we contract must comply with environmental laws and regulations, which can be expensive and restrict how we do business, and could expose us to liability if our use of such hazardous materials causes injury.
Our manufacturing processes currently require the controlled use of potentially harmful chemicals, including highly flammable solvents. We cannot eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury to employees or third parties from

28

Table of Contents

the use, storage, handling or disposal of these materials. In the event of contamination or injury, we could be held liable for any resulting damages, and any liability could exceed our resources or any applicable insurance coverage we may have. Additionally, we are subject to, on an ongoing basis, federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the use, storage, handling and disposal of these materials and specified waste products. These are particularly stringent in California, where NuSil, one of our key suppliers, is located. The cost of compliance with these laws and regulations may become significant and could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In the event of an accident or if we otherwise fail to comply with applicable regulations, we could lose our permits or approvals or be held liable for damages or penalized with fines.
Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Capital Requirements
We have incurred net operating losses in the past and expect to incur net operating losses for the foreseeable future.
We have incurred net operating losses since our inception, and we continue to incur significant research and development and general and administrative expenses related to our operations. We do not expect to be profitable in 2018, and in future years we expect to incur significant research and development expenses related to, among other things, the PMA clinical study of Motiva Implants in the United States Investment in medical device product development, particularly clinical studies, is highly speculative. It entails substantial upfront capital expenditures and significant risk that any potential planned product will fail to demonstrate adequate accuracy or clinical utility. We may not be profitable for some time after the completion of this offering. As of March 31, 2018 , we had an accumulated deficit of $ $74.4 million .
We expect that our future financial results will depend primarily on our success in launching, selling and supporting Motiva Implants and other products that are part of our MotivaImagine platform. This will require us to be successful in a range of activities, including manufacturing, marketing, and selling Motiva Implants. We may not succeed in these activities and may never generate revenue that is sufficient to be profitable in the future. Even if we are profitable, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our failure to achieve sustained profitability would depress the value of our company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, diversify our planned products, market our current and planned products, or continue our operations.
We may need additional funds to support our operations, and such funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, which would force us to delay, reduce or suspend our planned development and commercialization efforts. Raising additional capital may subject us to unfavorable terms, cause dilution to our existing shareholders, restrict our operations, or require us to relinquish rights to our products and technologies.
Our operations have consumed substantial amounts of cash since our inception, and we expect to incur significant expenses in connection with our planned research, development and product commercialization efforts. We believe that our available cash, cash from operations, and the net proceeds from this offering will be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months. If our available cash resources, net proceeds from this offering and anticipated cash flow from operations are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek to sell equity or convertible debt securities, enter into a credit facility or another form of third-party funding, or seek other debt financing. Any failure to raise the funds necessary to support our operations may force us to delay, reduce or suspend our planned clinical trials, research and development programs, or other commercialization efforts.
To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership may be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a shareholder. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take certain actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends.
On August 24, 2017, we entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, or the Lenders. In January 2018, management made an assessment that we would likely default on the Madryn Credit Agreement due to our investment in our Brazilian subsidiary approaching the $5.0 million limit. We informed Madryn and the syndicate of lenders, or the Lenders, of the potential technical default event and started the process to obtain a forbearance agreement. We initially defaulted on the Madryn Credit Agreement on February 28, 2018 when our investment in our Brazilian subsidiary exceeded the $5.0 million threshold permitted under the Madryn Credit Agreement.  As a result, on March 23, 2018 and subsequently on April 30, 2018, May 18, 2018 and again on June 8, 2018, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lenders, where the Lenders agreed to forebear from exercising certain rights and remedies through July 3, 2018 arising from certain disclosure and other technical defaults under the Madryn Credit Agreement, including those mentioned above with respect our Brazilian subsidiary. In accordance with certain cure rights under the Madryn Credit Agreement and the forbearance agreement, we will use best efforts to raise no less than $20.0 million of cash proceeds from equity

29

Table of Contents

issuances.  Furthermore, the forbearance agreement increases the limit of the amount of investment in the Brazilian subsidiary an additional $5.0 million, and requires us to maintain the liquidity in accounts for which Madryn received a qualifying control agreement of no less than $2.0 million while we provide periodic reports on all investments in the Brazilian subsidiary. The forbearance agreement also prohibits the Lenders from exercising certain rights and remedies in the event of our failure to provide the report and opinion of an independent certified public accountant free from any “going concern” qualifications for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. We recorded the Madryn debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017. Effective June 15, 2018, the Madryn Credit Agreement was amended to remove the restrictive covenants that resulted in the technical defaults which allowed us to reclassify the arrangement as long-term as of March 31, 2018.
If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic collaborations or partnership, or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may be required to do so at an earlier stage than would otherwise be ideal and/or may have to limit valuable rights to our intellectual property, technologies, products, or future revenue streams, or grant licenses or other rights on terms that are not favorable to us. Furthermore, any additional fundraising efforts may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize our products.
Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have experienced significant net losses and sustained negative cash flows from operations. In the three months ended March 31, 2017 , we incurred a net loss of $5.0 million and used cash for operating activities of $6.6 million . In the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we incurred a net loss of $6.5 million and used cash for operating activities of $5.9 million . We had an accumulated deficit of $67.9 million as of December 31, 2017 and $74.4 million as of March 31, 2018 . We expect to experience further significant net losses in 2018 and the foreseeable future. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for at least the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of the financial statements. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 , our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph in their audit report raising substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we are unable to obtain adequate funding from this proposed offering or in the future, or if we are unable to grow our revenue substantially to achieve and sustain profitability, amongst other factors, we may not be able to continue as a going concern, and our shareholders may lose some or all of their investment in us.
Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry
We rely on a single-source, third-party supplier for medical-grade long-term implantable silicone, which is the primary raw material used in our Motiva Implants. If this supplier were to increase prices for this raw material over time or experience interruptions in its ability to supply us with this raw material, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We rely on NuSil, as the sole supplier of medical-grade silicone used in our Motiva Implants as well as other products that we manufacture under contract to other customers. To our knowledge, NuSil is the only supplier of such raw materials with the appropriate filings with the FDA and other regulatory bodies to enable manufacture of products with our requirements. NuSil supplies our major competitors with raw material as well, and at least two of these are larger-volume customers of NuSil than we are.
If NuSil becomes unable or unwilling to supply sufficient quantities of medical-grade silicone of the specifications required for our products, we may not be able to replace this supply source quickly, or at all. Similarly, they may become unable or unwilling to manufacture our needed raw materials in compliance with regulatory requirements, or their manufacturing facilities may not be able to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements. Any replacement supplier would have to be qualified with the relevant regulatory authorities, which is an expensive and time-consuming process during which we may experience an interruption in our manufacturing operations. We may also be unsuccessful in negotiating favorable terms with such a supplier. Any of these contingencies would likely affect the financial results of our operations and may have a negative impact on our share price. In particular, if we are not able to establish a replacement vendor for our medical-grade silicone, we would be unable to manufacture our Motiva Implants as well as other products that we manufacture under contract to other customers until such time as a replacement vendor is identified, which would likely significantly affect the financial results of our operations and have significantly negative impact on our share price.

Table of Contents

Our current supply agreement with NuSil expires in December 2021. There can be no assurance that NuSil will agree to continue to supply us with medical-grade silicone following the expiration of our contract on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. This would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations for the reasons set forth above.
In addition, our relationship with NuSil involves other risks, including but not limited to the following:
it may not be able, or willing, to manufacture silicone raw materials with our agreed-upon specifications;
it may not be able, or willing, to manufacture our needed raw materials in compliance with regulatory requirements, or our its manufacturing facilities may not be able to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements;
it may not be able to supply sufficient quantities of each raw material quickly enough for us to respond to rapid increases in demand;
it may unintentionally convey information to our competitors that is helpful in understanding our proprietary compositions and other trade secrets of our manufacturing processes;
we may be subject to price fluctuations if we fail to meet certain minimum order requirements, or if our existing contract expires or is renegotiated;
it may lose access to critical services and components, resulting in interruption in manufacture or shipment of medical-grade silicone;
its facilities may be affected by earthquakes, wild fires, mud slides or other natural disasters, which could delay or impede production of our raw materials;
we may be required to obtain regulatory approvals related to any change in our supply chain;
NuSil may wish to discontinue supply of products to us due to its existing relationships with our competitors;
NuSil may claim ownership of the intellectual property associated with our ProgressiveGel family of silicone gel rheologies; and
NuSil or its parent entity may encounter financial or other hardships unrelated to our demand for products, which could negatively impact their ability to fulfill our orders and support our regulatory approvals.
Negative publicity concerning our products or our competitors’ products could harm our reputation and reduce demand for silicone breast implants, either of which could impact our financial results and/or share price.
The silicone breast implant industry has been the focus of significant regulatory and media scrutiny. Silicone breast implants were removed from the U.S. marketplace for a period in the 1990s and 2000s related to safety concerns. Certain patient advocacy groups exist to publicize real and perceived health risks associated with silicone breast implants and plastic surgery generally. The activities of legislative bodies, regulatory agencies, physician organizations, and other groups may lead to publicity around the real and perceived risks to patients from silicone implants. Any of these could reduce patient demand for our products, or could, even in the absence of a change in demand, negatively impact our share price. In addition, activity of this type could result in an increase in the number or size of product liability claims, which would adversely affect our business, financial results, and/or the price of our shares.
Recent studies have called into question the long-term safety of breast implants and there have also been reports of anaplastic large cell lymphoma linked to our competitors’ products. These events may lead to a reduction in the demand for silicone breast implants and could adversely affect our business.
Silicone breast implants have been associated with higher rates of anaplastic large cell lymphoma, or ALCL, a rare type of cancer affecting cells of the immune system. In January 2011, the FDA indicated that there was a possible association between saline and silicone gel-filled breast implants and higher rates of ALCL, with the causal links not yet understood. In March 2015, France’s National Cancer Institute, or NCI, noted that there is a clearly established link between ALCL and breast implants, which is referred to as breast implant-associated ALCL, or BIA-ALCL. The NCI noted in that report that most of the reported cases occurred in women with textured implants. In response, the Agence Nationale de Securite du Medicament et des Produits de Sante, or ANSM, the regulatory authority in France, has required manufacturers marketing breast implants in France, including us, to submit biocompatibility data for review, and this review is ongoing. While France by itself is a very small market for us, we anticipate that the results of this regulatory inquiry will influence other regulatory agencies in a variety of countries. It is possible that the BIA-ALCL risk factor will become highly publicized as a result, and this could negatively, and significantly, impact demand for breast implants globally.
In August 2017, the FDA updated its recommendations on BIA-ALCL and subsequently requested all breast implant manufacturers to revise their physician and patient labeling with the most up-to-date information.  The August 2017

31

Table of Contents

update described BIA-ALCL as “rare” and stated “we have strengthened our understanding of this condition and concur with the World Health Organization designation of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) as a rare T-cell lymphoma that can develop following breast implants. The exact number of cases remains difficult to determine due to significant limitations in world-wide reporting and lack of global implant sales data. At this time, most data suggest that BIA-ALCL occurs more frequently following implantation of breast implants with textured surfaces rather than those with smooth surfaces.” The FDA noted it does not recommend prophylactic breast implant removal in a patient without symptoms or other abnormalities.
In March 2018, the FDA further updated its reporting on BIA-ALCL stating “w e are reporting that we are aware of 414 total cases of BIA-ALCL. Additionally, studies reported in medical literature estimate that the lifetime risk of developing BIA-ALCL for patients with textured breast implants ranges from 1 in 3,817 to 1 in 30,000.” The FDA noted that the update did not change the agency’s recommendation and that choosing to obtain a breast implant is a very personal decision that patients and providers should make with the most complete information available.
We do not produ ce the type of more rough textured implants that were involved in these reports, and, to date, no cases of BIA-ALCL have been reported in women with Motiva Implants. Future clinical studies or clinical experience may indicate that breast implants expose patients to greater risks of BIA-ALCL, which may reduce demand for silicone implants generally, expose us to product liability claims, as well as to class actions and other lawsuits. These impacts may occur in the absence of any specific linkage with our products. Moreover, if cases of BIA-ALCL or other complications are discovered in the future and/or are reported in patients with Motiva Implants, we could be subject to mandatory product recalls, suspension or withdrawal of our regulatory licensure for sale in one or more countries, and significant legal liability. Any of these may have an adverse effect on our business or operating results, or a negative impact on our share price.
Risks Related to Intellectual Property
The medical device industry is characterized by patent litigation and we could become subject to litigation that could be costly, result in the diversion of management's time and efforts, require us to pay damages or prevent us from marketing our existing or future products.
Patent litigation is prevalent in the medical device and diagnostic sectors. Our commercial success depends in part upon our ability and that of our distributors, contract manufacturers, and suppliers to manufacture, market, to sell our planned products, and to use our proprietary technologies without infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating the proprietary rights or intellectual property of third parties. We may become party to, or be threatened with, future adversarial proceedings or litigation regarding intellectual property rights with respect to our products and technology. Third parties may assert infringement claims against us based on existing or future intellectual property rights. If we are found to infringe a third-party’s intellectual property rights, we could be required to obtain a license from such third-party to continue developing and marketing our products and technology. We may also elect to enter into such a license in order to settle pending or threatened litigation. However, we may not be able to obtain any required license on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Even if we were able to obtain a license, it could be non-exclusive, thereby giving our competitors access to the same technologies licensed to us, and could require us to pay significant royalties and other fees. We could be forced, including by court order, to cease commercializing the infringing technology or product. In addition, we could be found liable for monetary damages. A finding of infringement could prevent us from commercializing our planned products in commercially important territories, or force us to cease some of our business operations, which could harm our business. Many of our employees were previously employed at, and many of our current advisors and consultants are employed by, universities or other biotechnology, medical device or pharmaceutical companies, including our competitors or potential competitors. Although we try to ensure that our employees, advisors and consultants do not use the proprietary information or know-how of others in their work for us, we may be subject to claims that we, or these employees, have used or disclosed intellectual property, including trade secrets or other proprietary information, of any such employee’s former employer. These and other claims that we have misappropriated the confidential information or trade secrets of third parties can have a similar negative impact on our business to the infringement claims discussed above.
Even if we are successful in defending against intellectual property claims, litigation or other legal proceedings relating to such claims may cause us to incur significant expenses, and could distract our technical and management personnel from their normal responsibilities. In addition, there could be public announcements of the results of hearings, motions or other interim proceedings or developments and if securities analysts or investors perceive these results to be negative, it could have a substantial adverse effect on the price of our common shares. Such litigation or proceedings could substantially increase our operating losses and reduce our resources available for development activities. We may not have sufficient financial or other resources to adequately conduct such litigation or proceedings. Some of our competitors may be able to sustain the costs of such litigation or proceedings more effectively than we can because of their

32

Table of Contents

substantially greater financial resources. Uncertainties resulting from the initiation and continuation of litigation or other intellectual property related proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our ability to compete in the marketplace.
If we fail to comply with our obligations in our intellectual property agreements, we could lose intellectual property rights that are important to our business.
We are a party, and expect to become party in the future, to certain intellectual property agreements that impose various diligence, milestone payment, royalty, insurance and other obligations on us. If we fail to comply with these obligations, any licensor may have the right to terminate such agreements, in which event we may not be able to develop and market any product that is covered by such agreements. Termination of such agreements, or reduction or elimination of our rights under such agreements, may result in our having to negotiate new or reinstated arrangements on less favorable terms, or our not having sufficient intellectual property rights to operate our business. The occurrence of such events could harm our business and financial condition.
The risks described elsewhere in this prospectus pertaining to our intellectual property rights also apply to any intellectual property rights that we may license, and any failure by us or any future licensor to obtain, maintain, defend and enforce these rights could have a material adverse effect on our business.
If we are not able to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our products and technologies, or if the scope of our patents is not sufficiently broad, we may not be able to effectively maintain our market leading technology position.
Our success depends in large part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent and other intellectual property protection in the United States and in other countries with respect to our proprietary technology and products.
The patent position of medical device and diagnostic companies generally is highly uncertain and involves complex legal and factual questions for which legal principles remain unresolved. In recent years, patent rights have been the subject of significant litigation. As a result, the issuance, scope, validity, enforceability and commercial value of the patent rights we rely on are highly uncertain. Pending and future patent applications may not result in patents being issued which protect our technology or products or which effectively prevent others from commercializing competitive technologies and products. Changes in either the patent laws or interpretation of the patent laws in the United States and other countries may diminish the value of the patents we rely on or narrow the scope of our patent protection. The laws of other countries may not protect our rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S. Publications of discoveries in the scientific literature often lag behind the actual discoveries, and patent applications in the United States and other jurisdictions are typically not published until 18 months after filing, or in some cases not at all. Therefore, we cannot be certain that we were the first to make the inventions claimed in our patents or pending patent applications, or that we or were the first to file for patent protection of such inventions.
Even if the patent applications we rely on issue as patents, they may not issue in a form that will provide us with any meaningful protection, prevent competitors from competing with us or otherwise provide us with any competitive advantage. Our competitors may be able to circumvent our patents by developing similar or alternative technologies or products in a non-infringing manner. The issuance of a patent is not conclusive as to its scope, validity or enforceability, and the patents we rely on may be challenged in the courts or patent offices in the United States and abroad. Such challenges may result in patent claims being narrowed, invalidated or held unenforceable, which could limit our ability to stop or prevent us from stopping others from using or commercializing similar or identical technology and products, or limit the duration of the patent protection of our technology and products. Given the amount of time required for the development, testing and regulatory review of new planned products, patents protecting such products might expire before or shortly after such products are commercialized. As a result, our patent portfolio may not provide us with sufficient rights to exclude others from commercializing products similar or identical to ours or otherwise provide us with a competitive advantage.
We may become involved in legal proceedings to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, which could be expensive, time consuming, or unsuccessful.
Competitors may infringe or otherwise violate the patents we rely on, or our other intellectual property rights. To counter infringement or unauthorized use, we may be required to file infringement claims, which can be expensive and time-consuming. Any claims that we assert against perceived infringers could also provoke these parties to assert counterclaims against us alleging that we infringe their intellectual property rights. In addition, in an infringement proceeding, a court may decide that a patent we are asserting is invalid or unenforceable, or may refuse to stop the other party from using the technology at issue on the grounds that the patents we are asserting do not cover the technology in question. An adverse result in any litigation proceeding could put one or more patents at risk of being invalidated or

33

Table of Contents

interpreted narrowly. Furthermore, because of the substantial amount of discovery required in connection with intellectual property litigation, there is a risk that some of our confidential information could be compromised by disclosure during this type of litigation.
Interference or derivation proceedings provoked by third parties or brought by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or USPTO, or any other patent authority may be necessary to determine the priority of inventions or other matters of inventorship with respect to patents and patent applications. We may become involved in proceedings, including oppositions, interferences, derivation proceedings inter partes reviews, patent nullification proceedings, or re-examinations, challenging our patent rights or the patent rights of others, and the outcome of any such proceedings are highly uncertain. An adverse determination in any such proceeding could reduce the scope of, or invalidate, important patent rights, allow third parties to commercialize our technology or products and compete directly with us, without payment to us, or result in our inability to manufacture or commercialize products without infringing third-party patent rights. Our business also could be harmed if a prevailing party does not offer us a license on commercially reasonable terms, if any license is offered at all. Litigation or other proceedings may fail and, even if successful, may result in substantial costs and distract our management and other employees. We may also become involved in disputes with others regarding the ownership of intellectual property rights. If we are unable to resolve these disputes, we could lose valuable intellectual property rights.
Even if resolved in our favor, litigation or other legal proceedings relating to intellectual property claims may cause us to incur significant expenses, and could distract our technical or management personnel from their normal responsibilities. In addition, there could be public announcements of the results of hearings, motions or other interim proceedings or developments and if securities analysts or investors perceive these results to be negative, it could have a substantial adverse effect on the market price of our common shares. Such litigation or proceedings could substantially increase our operating losses and reduce the resources available for development activities or any future sales, marketing or distribution activities. Uncertainties resulting from the initiation and continuation of intellectual property litigation or other proceedings could have an adverse effect on our ability to compete in the marketplace.
If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our trade secrets, the value of our technology could be materially adversely affected, harming our business and competitive position.
In addition to our patented technology and products, we rely upon confidential proprietary information, including trade secrets, unpatented know-how, technology and other proprietary information, to develop and maintain our competitive position. Any disclosure to or misappropriation by third parties of our confidential proprietary information could enable competitors to quickly duplicate or surpass our technological achievements, thus eroding our competitive position in the market. We seek to protect our confidential proprietary information, in part, by confidentiality agreements with our employees and our collaborators and consultants. We also have agreements with our employees and selected consultants that obligate them to assign their inventions to us. These agreements are designed to protect our proprietary information, however, we cannot be certain that our trade secrets and other confidential information will not be disclosed or that competitors will not otherwise gain access to our trade secrets, or that technology relevant to our business will not be independently developed by a person that is not a party to such an agreement. Furthermore, if the employees, consultants or collaborators that are parties to these agreements breach or violate the terms of these agreements, we may not have adequate remedies for any such breach or violation, and we could lose our trade secrets through such breaches or violations. Further, our trade secrets could be disclosed, misappropriated or otherwise become known or be independently discovered by our competitors. In addition, intellectual property laws in foreign countries may not protect trade secrets and confidential information to the same extent as the laws of the United States . If we are unable to prevent disclosure of the intellectual property related to our technologies to third parties, we may not be able to establish or maintain a competitive advantage in our market, which would harm our ability to protect our rights and have an adverse effect on our business.
We may not be able to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights throughout the world.
Filing, prosecuting and defending patents on all of our planned products throughout the world may be prohibitively expensive to us. Competitors may use our technologies in jurisdictions where we have not obtained patent protection to develop their own products and, further, may export otherwise infringing products to territories where we have patent protection but where enforcement is not as strong as in the United States . These products may compete with our products in jurisdictions where we do not have any issued patents and our patent claims or other intellectual property rights may not be effective or sufficient to prevent them from so competing. Many companies have encountered significant problems in protecting and defending intellectual property rights in international jurisdictions. The legal systems of certain countries, particularly certain developing countries, do not favor the enforcement of patents and other intellectual property protection, which could make it difficult for us to stop the infringement of our patents or marketing

34

Table of Contents

of competing products in violation of our proprietary rights generally. Proceedings to enforce our patent rights in foreign jurisdictions could result in substantial cost and divert our efforts and attention from other aspects of our business.
Obtaining and maintaining patent protection depends on compliance with various procedural, document submission, fee payment and other requirements imposed by governmental patent agencies, and our patent protection could be reduced or eliminated for non-compliance with these requirements.
Periodic maintenance fees, renewal fees, annuity fees and various other governmental fees on patents or applications will be due to be paid by us to the USPTO and various governmental patent agencies outside of the United States in several stages over the lifetime of the patents or applications. The USPTO and various non-U.S. governmental patent agencies require compliance with a number of procedural, documentary, fee payment and other similar provisions during the patent application process. In many cases, an inadvertent lapse can be cured by payment of a late fee or by other means in accordance with the applicable rules. However, there are situations in which noncompliance can result in abandonment or lapse of the patent or patent application, resulting in partial or complete loss of patent rights in the relevant jurisdiction. In such an event, our competitors might be able to use our technologies and this circumstance would have a material adverse effect on our business.
Risks Related to Government Regulation
The regulatory approval process is expensive, time consuming and uncertain, and may prevent us from obtaining approvals for the commercialization of Motiva Implants or our planned products.
The research, testing, manufacturing, labeling, approval, selling, import, export, marketing and distribution of medical devices are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other regulatory authorities in the United States and other countries, where regulations differ from country to country. Our products are registered to be sold in over 60 countries, but we are not permitted to market our planned products in the United States until we receive the requisite approval or clearance from the FDA. We have not submitted an application or received marketing approval for Motiva Implants or any planned products in the United States. Obtaining PMA approval for sale for a medical device from the FDA can be a lengthy, expensive and uncertain process. In addition, failure to comply with FDA and other applicable U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements may subject us to administrative or judicially imposed sanctions, including the following:
warning letters;
civil or criminal penalties and fines;
injunctions;
suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approval;
suspension of any ongoing clinical studies;
voluntary or mandatory product recalls and publicity requirements;
refusal to accept or approve applications for marketing approval of new devices or supplements to approved applications filed by us;
restrictions on operations, including costly new manufacturing requirements; or
seizure or detention of our products or import bans.
Prior to receiving approval to commercialize any of our planned products in the United States or abroad, we may be required to demonstrate with substantial evidence from preclinical and well-controlled clinical studies, and to the satisfaction of the FDA or other regulatory authorities abroad, that such planned products are safe and effective for their intended uses. Results from preclinical studies and clinical studies can be interpreted in different ways. Even if we believe the preclinical or clinical data for our planned products are promising, such data may not be sufficient to support approval by the FDA and other regulatory authorities. Administering any of our planned products to humans may produce undesirable side effects, which could interrupt, delay or cause suspension of clinical studies of our planned products and result in the FDA or other regulatory authorities denying approval of our planned products for any or all targeted indications.

35

Regulatory approval from the FDA is not guaranteed, and the approval process is expensive and may take several years. The FDA also has substantial discretion in the approval process. Despite the time and expense exerted, failure can occur at any stage, and we could encounter problems that cause us to abandon or repeat clinical studies, or perform additional preclinical studies and clinical studies. The number of preclinical studies and clinical studies that will be required for FDA approval varies depending on the planned product, the indication that the planned product is designed to address and the regulations applicable to any particular planned product. The FDA can delay, limit or deny approval of a planned product for many reasons, including, but not limited to, the following:
a planned product or one or more of its features may not be deemed safe or effective;
FDA officials may not find the data from preclinical studies and clinical studies sufficient;
the FDA might not approve our manufacturing or our third-party supplier’s processes or facilities; or
the FDA may change its approval policies or adopt new regulations.
If Motiva Implants or any planned products fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy in preclinical and clinical studies or do not gain regulatory approval, our business and results of operations will be harmed.
Even if we receive regulatory approval for a planned product, we will be subject to ongoing regulatory obligations and continued regulatory review, which may result in significant additional expense and subject us to penalties if we fail to comply with applicable regulatory requirements.
When a regulatory approval is obtained, the approved product and its manufacturer are subject to continual review by the FDA or non-U.S. regulatory authorities. Our regulatory approval for Motiva Implants, as well as any regulatory approval that we receive for Motiva Implants or for any planned products may be subject to limitations on the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed. Future approvals may contain requirements for potentially costly post-marketing follow-up studies to monitor the safety and efficacy of the approved product. In addition, we are subject to extensive and ongoing regulatory requirements by the FDA and other regulatory authorities with regard to the labeling, packaging, adverse event reporting, storage, advertising, promotion and recordkeeping for our products. In addition, we are required to comply with regulations regarding the manufacture of Motiva Implants, which include requirements related to quality control and quality assurance as well as the corresponding maintenance of records and documentation. Further, regulatory authorities must inspect these manufacturing facilities and determine they are in compliance with FDA good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the Quality System Regulation, or QSR, before the products can be approved. These facilities are subject to continual review and periodic inspections by the FDA and other regulatory authorities for compliance with QSR regulations. If we or a third party discover previously unknown problems with a product, such as adverse events of unanticipated severity or frequency, or problems with the facility where the product is manufactured, a regulatory authority may impose restrictions on that product, the manufacturer or us, including requiring withdrawal of the product from the market or suspension of manufacturing.
Health care reform measures could hinder or prevent our planned products’ commercial success.
In the United States , there have been, and we expect there will continue to be, a number of legislative and regulatory changes to the health care system in ways that could affect our future revenue and future profitability and the future revenue and future profitability of our potential customers. Federal and state lawmakers regularly propose and, at times, enact legislation, that could result in significant changes to the health care system, some of which are intended to contain or reduce the costs of medical products and services. For example, one of the most significant health care reform measures in decades, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, or PPACA, was enacted in 2010. The PPACA contains a number of provisions, including those governing enrollment in federal health care programs, reimbursement changes and fraud and abuse measures, all of which will impact existing government health care programs and will result in the development of new programs. The PPACA, among other things, could result in the imposition of injunctions and imposes a tax of 2.3% on the retail sales price of medical devices sold after December 31, 2012. This tax may apply to Motiva Implants and some or all of our products which are in development. The excise tax has been temporarily suspended through the end of 2019, but will be reinstated in 2020 without additional Congressional action.
Some provisions of the PPACA have yet to be implemented, and t here have been judicial and Congressional challenges to certain aspects of the PPACA, as well as recent efforts by the Trump administration to repeal or replace certain aspects of the PPACA. While Congress has not passed comprehensive repeal legislation, we expect there will be additional challenges and amendments to the PPACA in the future as new administrations and politicians are elected . Since January 2017, two executive orders have been signed and other directives designed to delay, circumvent, or loosen certain requirements mandated by the PPACA. Concurrently, Congress has considered legislation that would repeal and replace all or part of the PPACA. While Congress has previously been successful at passing comprehensive repeal

36

Table of Contents

legislation through both Chambers of Congress, it had then been vetoed by former President Obama; however full repeal legislation is unlikely in the current political climate. Furthermore, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act passed in December of 2017 included a provision that would repeal one of the primary pillars of the law, the PPACA’s individual mandate penalty that essentially assessed a monetary penalty or fine on certain individuals who fail to maintain qualifying health coverage for all or part of a year. Congress may consider other legislation to repeal or replace elements of the PPACA on a provision-by-provision basis. We cannot assure you that the PPACA, as currently enacted or as amended in the future, will not adversely affect our business and financial results and we cannot predict how future federal or state legislative or administrative changes relating to health care reform will affect our business. Furthermore, legislators continue efforts to repeal and replace other elements of the PPACA. While the result of these efforts is not yet known, any changes that result in price controls, reduce access to and reimbursement for care or add additional regulations may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the PPACA was enacted. For example, the Budget Control Act of 2011, among other things, created the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction to recommend proposals for spending reductions to Congress. The Joint Select Committee did not achieve a targeted deficit reduction of at least $1.2 trillion for the years 2013 through 2021, which triggered the legislation’s automatic reduction to several government programs, including aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2% per fiscal year, starting in 2013, which , due to subsequent legislative amendments to the statute, including the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, will remain in effect through 2027 unless additional Congressional action is taken. We cannot predict whether any additional legislative changes will affect our business.
There likely will continue to be legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at containing or lowering the cost of health care. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future or their full impact. The continuing efforts of the government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of health care services to contain or reduce costs of health care may adversely affect:
our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for our products;
our ability to generate revenue and achieve or maintain profitability; and
the availability of capital.
If we fail to comply with health care regulations, we could face substantial penalties and our business, operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Even though we do not and will not control referrals of health care services or bill directly to Medicare, Medicaid or other third-party payors, certain federal and state health care laws and regulations pertaining to fraud and abuse and patients’ rights are and will be applicable to our business. If we are approved by the FDA to market our products in the United States, we could be subject to health care fraud and abuse and patient privacy regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct our business. The regulations that may affect our ability to operate include, without limitation:
the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which prohibits, among other things, any person from knowingly and willfully offering, soliciting, receiving or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to induce either the referral of an individual for, or the purchase, order or recommendation of, any good or service for which payment may be made under federal health care programs, such as the Medicare and Medicaid programs;
the federal physician self-referral law, commonly known as the Stark Law, which prohibits, among other things, physicians who have a financial relationship, including an investment, ownership or compensation relationship with an entity, from referring Medicare and Medicaid patients to that entity for designated health services, unless an exception applies. Similarly, entities may not bill Medicare, Medicaid or any other party for services furnished pursuant to a prohibited referral. Unlike the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, the Stark Law is a strict liability statute, meaning that all of the requirements of a Stark Law exception must be met in order to be compliant with the law;
the federal civil and criminal false claims and civil monetary penalties laws, including the federal False Claims Act, which prohibits, among other things, individuals or entities from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, false claims, or knowingly using false statements, to obtain payment from the federal government;
HIPAA, which prohibits, executing a scheme to defraud any health care benefit program or making false statements relating to health care matters;
the federal transparency requirements under the PPACA which requires certain manufacturers of drugs, devices, biologics and medical supplies to annual report to the HHS information related to physician payments and other transfers of value made to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership and investment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members;

37

Table of Contents

HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, which governs the conduct of certain electronic health care transactions and protects the security and privacy of protected health information;
state law equivalents of each of the above federal laws, such as anti-kickback, transparency and false claims laws which may apply to items or services reimbursed by any third-party payor, including commercial insurers, as well as state post-marketing compliance laws; and
state laws governing the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other in significant ways and often are not preempted by HIPAA, thus complicating compliance efforts.
The PPACA, among other things, amended the intent requirement of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and criminal health care fraud statutes. A person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of this statute or specific intent to violate it. In addition, the PPACA provides that the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the federal False Claims Act.
Similar regulations would also apply to our business in countries where we have started direct sales operations, like Brazil and several others within the European Union, where they have different regulations at European and national levels. There is a high degree of complication in complying with the different levels of regulation and the singular differences in the different countries and markets.
If our operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws described above or any other governmental regulations that apply to us, we may be subject to penalties, including civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, fines, disgorgement, individual imprisonment, exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs, individual imprisonment, additional reporting and government oversight, if we become subject to a corporate integrity agreement or similar agreement to resolve allegations of non-compliance with these laws and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations. Any such penalties or curtailment or restructuring of our operations could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our financial results. Any action against us for violation of these laws, even if we successfully defend against it, could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and divert our management’s attention from the operation of our business. Moreover, achieving and sustaining compliance with applicable federal, state or international privacy, security and fraud laws may prove costly.
We have obtained the authorization to distribute our products in regions/countries such as Europe and Brazil through the certification of our Quality System by the corresponding regulatory entities. Failing to demonstrate that our Quality System is in place, that consistently and systematically ensures compliance with regulations from such regions/countries might imply losing the certifications and as such, the rights to freely distribute the products which would adversely impact the company’s revenue and reputation.
French regulatory authorities at the ANSM are evaluating the biocompatibility of textured breast implants.
In February 2016, the ANSM set up a temporary scientific committee to assess the biocompatibility of implantable breast prostheses. Its objective is “to give an opinion on the documented demonstration of the biocompatibility of implantable breast implants from manufacturers.”
Accordingly, all manufacturers of breast implants marketed in France, including us, received correspondence from ANSM authorities during the first half of 2015, requesting certain biocompatibility compliance data on breast implants. A period of twelve months was set for all manufacturers to complete the demonstration of conformity with the enhanced biocompatibility requirements. During September 2016, we met with the ANSM to discuss conducting a testing plan to be completed during 2017, and have submitted information and responses to follow up requests to ANSM on multiple occasions from July 2017 to November 2017. The ANSM authorities have stated that they may suspend marketing of implants that do not demonstrate conformity within the timeframe given. While France by itself is a very small market for us, we anticipate that the results of this regulatory inquiry will influence other regulatory agencies in a variety of countries. It is possible that the ALCL risk factor will become highly publicized as a result, and this could negatively, and significantly, impact demand for breast implants globally. Any suspension of sale of our implants in France would adversely affect our business and sales in France and could negatively influence our sales in other countries.

The Dutch Health Care Inspectorate, together with the RIVM, are evaluating silicone breast implants through a market surveillance study.
In 2015, the Netherlands National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, or RIVM, commissioned by the Dutch Health Care Inspectorate, initiated an assessment of the ten manufacturers that commercialize breast implants on the Dutch market, including us. The purpose was to investigate the quality of the silicone breast implants addressing a revision of the technical files, a physical-chemical characterization of the silicone materials, biocompatibility and identifying any concern related to the patient safety.
For this investigation, important parts of the technical files of each manufacturer of silicone breast implants were evaluated. In parallel, laboratory analyses were performed on the chemical composition and potentially harmful properties of the implants. Each manufacturer was evaluated based on the assessment of the technical files, and the information was published initially without identifying the results to the manufacturer.
Subsequently, each manufacturer presented an update of the findings and observations of this evaluation. In February 2018, the results of the updated assessment were published for the market surveillance study. In this reassessment, we corrected a typographical error in the name of our silicone gel. Laboratory analyses of the actual implants showed no deviations that could cause health damage. The Dutch Health Care Inspectorate has not revealed if they will continue with the assessments on a periodic basis or what other aspects they may evaluate. Any deficiencies of our implants in the Netherlands could adversely affect our business and sales in Europe and throughout the world.
Risks Related to This Offering and Ownership of Our Securities
Our share price may be volatile, and purchasers of our securities could incur substantial losses.
Our share price is likely to be volatile. The securities markets in general, and the market for biotechnology and medical device companies in particular, have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. As a result of this volatility, investors may not be able to sell their common shares at or above the initial public offering price. The market price for our shares may be influenced by many factors, including the following:
our ability to successfully commercialize, and realize revenues from sales of, Motiva Implants, MotivaImagine Centers and Motiva branded surgeries;
the success of competitive products or technologies;
results of clinical studies of Motiva Implants or planned products or those of our competitors;
regulatory or legal developments in the United States and other countries, especially changes in laws or regulations applicable to our products;
introductions and announcements of new products by us, our commercialization partners, or our competitors, and the timing of these introductions or announcements;
actions taken by regulatory agencies with respect to our products, clinical studies, manufacturing processes or sales and marketing terms;
variations in our financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us;
the success of our efforts to acquire or in-license additional products or planned products;
developments concerning our collaborations, including but not limited to those with our sources of manufacturing supply and our commercialization partners;
developments concerning our ability to bring our manufacturing processes to scale in a cost-effective manner;
announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
developments or disputes concerning patents or other proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters and our ability to obtain patent protection for our products;
our ability or inability to raise additional capital and the terms on which we raise it;
the recruitment or departure of key personnel;
changes in the structure of health care payment systems;
negative shifts in the economy effecting the number of aesthetic breast procedures;
market conditions in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors;
actual or anticipated changes in earnings estimates or changes in securities analyst recommendations regarding our common shares, other comparable companies or our industry generally;
trading volume of our common shares;

Table of Contents

sales of our common shares by us or our shareholders;
general economic, industry and market conditions; and
the other risks described in this “Risk Factors” section.
These broad market and industry factors may harm the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against companies. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.
CPH TU, LP, an entity affiliated with one of our directors, owns and will own after this offering a significant percentage of our common shares and will exercise significant influence over matters requiring shareholder approval.
Based upon the assumed number of shares to be sold in this offering and the assumed midpoint of the price range, each as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, CPH TU, LP, or CPH, an entity affiliated with one of our directors, Nicholas Lewin, will beneficially own 48.0% of our outstanding common shares following this offering (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares). Nicholas Lewin and CPH will therefore have significant influence over management and significant control over matters requiring shareholder approval, including the annual election of directors and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or other sale of our company or its assets, for the foreseeable future. This concentrated control may limit shareholders’ ability to influence corporate matters and, as a result, we may take actions that our shareholders do not view as beneficial. As a result, the market price of our common shares could be adversely affected.
Future sales of our common shares, or the perception that future sales may occur, may cause the market price of our common shares to decline, regardless of our operating performance.
Sales of substantial amounts of our common shares in the public market after this offering, or the perception that these sales may occur, could materially and adversely affect the price of our common shares and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. The common shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable, without restriction, in the public market, except for any shares sold to our affiliates.
In connection with this offering, we, our officers, directors, certain of our option holders, and holders of substantially all of our outstanding share capital have agreed, prior to the commencement of this offering, subject to specified exceptions, not to directly or indirectly sell or transfer any common shares for 180 days after the date of this prospectus without the consent of Jefferies LLC, or Jefferies, and Cowen and Company, LLC, or Cowen. However, Jefferies and Cowen may release these shares from any restrictions at any time. We cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of shares held by any shareholder or the availability of shares for future sale will have on the market price of our common shares.
Approximately              common shares may be sold in the public market by existing shareholders after the date of this prospectus and an additional              common shares may be sold in the public market by existing shareholders 181 days after the date of this prospectus, subject to volume and other limitations imposed under the federal securities laws. Sales of substantial amounts of our common shares in the public market after the completion of this offering, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common shares and could materially impair our ability to raise capital through offerings of our common shares. See the section titled “Shares Eligible for Future Sale” for a more detailed description of the restrictions on selling shares of our common shares after this offering.
We are an “emerging growth company,” and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common shares less attractive to investors.
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, which was enacted in April 2012. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of this offering, (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have

40

Table of Contents

total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, (3) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th, and (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. We cannot predict if investors will find our common shares less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common shares and our share price may suffer or be more volatile.
Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. W e have elected to take advantage of the extension of time to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards available under Section 102(b) of the JOBS Act.
We could be subject to securities class action litigation.
In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies whose securities have experienced periods of volatility in market price. Securities litigation brought against us following volatility in the price of our ordinary shares, regardless of the merit or ultimate results of such litigation, could result in substantial costs, which would hurt our financial condition and results of operations and divert management’s attention and resources from our business.
After this offering, our executive officers, directors and principal shareholders will continue to maintain the ability to control or significantly influence all matters submitted to shareholders for approval.
Upon the closing of this offering, our executive officers, directors and shareholders who owned more than 5% of our outstanding common shares before this offering will, in the aggregate, beneficially own shares representing approximately     % of our common shares, based on                            common shares outstanding as of the date of this offering, including the common shares issuable upon conversion of our convertible promissory notes upon the closing of this offering and after giving effect to the sale of shares in this offering. As a result, if these shareholders were to choose to act together, they would be able to control or significantly influence all matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, as well as our management and affairs. For example, these shareholders, if they choose to act together, will control or significantly influence the election of directors and approval of any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. This concentration of voting power could delay or prevent an acquisition of our company on terms that other shareholders may desire.
We will incur significant increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.
As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. We will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the other rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq. The expenses that will be required in order to adequately prepare for being a public company will be material, and compliance with the various reporting and other requirements applicable to public companies will require considerable time and attention of management. For example, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules of the SEC and national securities exchanges have imposed various requirements on public companies, including requiring establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. These rules and regulations will continue to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, we expect these rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits on coverage or incur substantial costs to maintain the same or similar coverage. The impact of these events could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified personnel to serve on our board of directors, our board committees, or as executive officers.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. In particular, we must perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, beginning with our second annual report on Form 10-K. In addition, we will be required to have our independent registered public accounting firm attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting beginning with our annual report on Form 10-K following the date on which we are no longer an emerging growth company. Our compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act will require that we incur substantial accounting expense and expend significant management efforts. We currently

41

Table of Contents

do not have an internal audit group, and we will need to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge. If we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, or if we or our independent registered public accounting firm identify deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price of our shares could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by Nasdaq, the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources.
Our ability to successfully implement our business plan and comply with Section 404 requires us to be able to prepare timely and accurate financial statements. We expect that we will need to continue to improve existing, and implement new operational and financial systems, procedures and controls to manage our business effectively. Any delay in the implementation of, or disruption in the transition to, new or enhanced systems, procedures or controls, may cause our operations to suffer and we may be unable to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is effective and to obtain an unqualified report on internal controls from our auditors as required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. This, in turn, could have an adverse impact on trading prices for our common shares, and could adversely affect our ability to access the capital markets.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017, and may identify additional material weaknesses in the future that may cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or result in material misstatements of our consolidated financial statements. If we fail to remedy our material weaknesses, or if we fail to establish and maintain effective control over financial reporting, our ability to accurately and timely report our financial results could be adversely affected.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Prior to the completion of this offering, we have been a private company with limited accounting and compliance personnel and other resources to address our internal control over financial reporting.
In connection with the preparation and audit of our 2016 financial statements, w e had two material weaknesses. First, we did not maintain a sufficient complement of resources with an appropriate level of accounting knowledge, U.S. GAAP experience and training commensurate with our structure and financial reporting requirements. Second, we did not have adequate separation of duties to provide for appropriate control of cash and other accounts.
We have hired additional personnel in our accounting department, and hired consultants with technical expertise to account for our complex financial instruments related to our debt agreements with CPH, and Perceptive Credit Holdings, L.P., or Perceptive, as well as other business combination and asset acquisition accounting.
Management determined that these material weakness were remediated as of December 31, 2017.
In connection with the preparation and audit of our 2017 financial statements, w e had the following material weaknesses. We did not perform adequate reviews of the accounting for each tranche of the debt outstanding under the Madryn Credit Agreement and the standard-to-actual inventory costing. Further, at our Brazilian subsidiary, we did not employ an adequate number of accounting and finance professionals with the requisite expertise in order to timely and accurately capture, record and review the high volume of transactions.
We are in the process of improving policies and procedures and designing more effective controls to remediate these material weaknesses, but our remediation efforts are not complete and are ongoing. If our remedial measures are insufficient to address the material weaknesses, or if additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control are discovered or occur in the future, it may materially adversely affect our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations in a timely and accurate manner and impact investor confidence in our Company.
The actions we have taken are subject to continued review, supported by confirmation and testing by management as well as audit committee oversight. While we have implemented a plan to remediate these material weaknesses we cannot assure you that we will be able to remediate them, which could impair our ability to accurately and timely report our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Our failure to remediate the material weaknesses identified above or the identification and remediation of additional material weaknesses in the future, could adversely affect our ability to report financial information, including our filing of quarterly or annual reports with the SEC on a timely and accurate basis. Moreover, our failure to remediate the material weakness identified above or the identification

42

of additional material weaknesses, could prohibit us from producing timely and accurate consolidated financial statements, which may adversely affect our share price and we may be unable to maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements.
Our ability to use net operating losses to offset future taxable income and certain other tax attributes may be subject to certain limitations.
Federal and California laws impose restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and research and development credit carryforwards in the event of a change in ownership of the company, which constitutes an “ownership change” as defined by Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383.  Generally, an ownership change occurs if the percentage of the value of the shares that are owned by one or more direct or indirect “five percent shareholders” increases by more than 50% over their lowest ownership percentage at any time during the applicable testing period. If we have experienced an “ownership change” at any time since our formation, we may already be subject to limitations on our ability to utilize our existing net operating losses and other tax attributes. We have not experienced an ownership change in the past that would materially impact the availability of its net operating losses and tax credits. Nevertheless, future changes in our share ownership, which may be outside of our control, may trigger an “ownership change” and, consequently, Section 382 and 383 limitations. We have not completed a Section 382 and 383 analysis to determine if an ownership change has occurred. Until such analysis is completed, we cannot be sure that the full amount of the existing net operating loss carryforwards will be available to us, even if we do generate taxable income before their expiration. In addition, under the newly enacted U.S. federal income tax law, federal net operating losses incurred in 2018 and in future years may be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such federal net operating losses is limited.
The recently passed comprehensive U.S. tax reform bill could adversely affect our business and financial condition.
On December 22, 2017, new legislation was passed that significantly revises the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  The newly enacted U.S. federal income tax law, among other things, contains significant changes to corporate taxation, including reduction of the corporate tax rate from a top marginal rate of 35% to a flat rate of 21%, limitation of the tax deduction for interest expense to 30% of adjusted earnings (except for certain small businesses), limitation of the deduction for net operating losses to 80% of current year taxable income and elimination of net operating loss carrybacks, one time taxation of offshore earnings at reduced rates regardless of whether they are repatriated, elimination of U.S. tax on foreign earnings (subject to certain important exceptions), immediate deductions for certain new investments instead of deductions for depreciation expense over time, and modifying or repealing many business deductions and credits.  Notwithstanding the reduction in the corporate income tax rate, the overall impact of the new federal tax law is uncertain and our business and financial condition could be adversely affected.  In addition, it is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to the newly enacted federal tax law.  The impact of this tax reform on holders of our common shares is also uncertain and could be adverse.  We urge our stockholders to consult with their legal and tax advisors with respect to this legislation and the potential tax consequences of investing in or holding our common shares.
Tax authorities may disagree with our positions and conclusions regarding certain tax positions, resulting in unanticipated costs, taxes or non-realization of expected benefits.
A tax authority may disagree with tax positions that we have taken, which could result in increased tax liabilities. For example, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or another tax authority could challenge the amounts paid between our affiliated companies pursuant to our intercompany arrangements and transfer pricing policies. A tax authority may take the position that material income tax liabilities, interest and penalties are payable by us, in which case, we expect that we might contrast such assessment. Contesting such an assessment may be lengthy and costly and if we were unsuccessful in disputing the assessment, the implications could increase our anticipated effective tax rate, where applicable. In addition, we may be subject to additional tax liabilities, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The application, interpretation and enforcement value-added tax, or VAT, and other taxes and related regulations applicable to medical device companies is complex and evolving.
Discontinuation of preferential tax treatments we currently enjoy or other unfavorable changes in tax law could result in additional compliance obligations and costs.
Discontinuation of preferential tax treatments we currently enjoy or other unfavorable changes in tax law could result in additional compliance obligations and costs. We are currently the beneficiary of a tax holiday in Costa Rica pursuant to which we are subject to a tax at a 6% rate. We are in the process of applying for, and expect to receive, a tax holiday in Costa Rica under which we would be subject to tax at a 0% rate. However, there can be no assurance that we will

43

Table of Contents

continue to qualify for or receive such favorable tax treatment. If we fail to maintain such favorable tax treatment we may be subject to tax in Costa Rica at a significantly higher rate.
If a United States person is treated as owning at least 10% of our common shares, such holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.
If a United States person is treated as owning (directly, indirectly, or constructively) at least 10% of the value or voting power of our ordinary shares, such person may be treated as a “United States shareholder” with respect to each “controlled foreign corporation” in our group (if any). Because our group includes one or more U.S. subsidiaries, certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries could be treated as controlled foreign corporations (regardless of whether or not we are treated as a controlled foreign corporation). A U.S. shareholder of a controlled foreign corporation may be required to report annually and include in its U.S. taxable income its pro rata share of “Subpart F income,” “global intangible low-taxed income,” and investments in U.S. property by controlled foreign corporations, regardless of whether we make any distributions. An individual that is a U.S. shareholder with respect to a controlled foreign corporation generally would not be allowed certain tax deductions or foreign tax credits that would be allowed to a U.S. shareholder that is a U.S. corporation. Failure to comply with these reporting obligations may subject a U.S. shareholder to significant monetary penalties and may prevent the statute of limitations with respect to such shareholder’s U.S. federal income tax return for the year for which reporting was due from starting. We cannot provide any assurances that we will assist investors in determining whether any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is treated as a controlled foreign corporation or whether any investor is treated as a U.S. shareholder with respect to any such controlled foreign corporation or furnish to any U.S. shareholders information that may be necessary to comply with the aforementioned reporting and tax paying obligations. A U.S. investor should consult its advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to an investment in our common shares.
If you purchase our securities in this offering, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your investment.
The initial public offering price is substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our securities. Investors purchasing shares in this offering will pay a price per share that substantially exceeds the book value of our tangible assets after subtracting our liabilities. As a result, investors purchasing shares in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $         per share, based on an assumed initial public offering price of $         per share, which is the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover of this prospectus. Further, investors purchasing shares in this offering will contribute approximately     % of the total amount invested by shareholders since our inception, but will own, as a result of such investment, only approximately     % of common shares outstanding immediately following this offering.
The exercise of any of our outstanding options would result in additional dilution. As a result of the dilution to investors purchasing shares in this offering, investors may receive significantly less than the purchase price paid in this offering, if anything, in the event of our liquidation. Further, because we may need to raise additional capital to fund our clinical development programs, we may in the future sell substantial amounts of common shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for common shares. These future issuances of equity or equity-linked securities, together with the exercise of outstanding options and any additional shares issued in connection with acquisitions, if any, may result in further dilution to investors.
No public market for our common shares currently exists and an active trading market may not develop or be sustained following this offering.
There is no established trading market for our securities, and the market for our securities may be highly volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance. Prior to this offering, you could not buy or sell our securities publicly. An active public market for our securities may not develop or be sustained after this offering. We cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in our company will lead to the development of an active trading market in our common shares or how liquid that market might become. An active and liquid trading market may be further hindered to the extent certain of our existing investors purchase shares in this offering. If a market does not develop or is not sustained, it may be difficult for you to sell your securities at the time you wish to sell them, at a price that is attractive to you, or at all.
The initial public offering price per share has been determined through negotiation between us and representatives of the underwriters, and may not be indicative of the market prices that prevail after this offering. You may not be able to sell your common shares at or above the initial public offering price.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research, about our business, our common share price and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our common shares will depend, in part, on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on our company. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of our company, the trading price for our common shares would likely be negatively impacted. In the event securities or industry analysts initiate coverage, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our common shares or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our share price would likely decline. In addition, if our operating results fail to meet the forecast of analysts, our share price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our common shares could decrease, which might cause our share price and trading volume to decline.
Our management team may invest or spend the proceeds of this offering in ways with which you may not agree or in ways which may not yield a return.
Although we currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering in the manner described in the section titled “Use of Proceeds,” our management will have broad discretion in the application of the balance of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our common shares. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business, cause the price of our common shares to decline and delay the commercialization of Motiva Implants or other planned products. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value.
Provisions in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and under British Virgin Islands law could make an acquisition of us more difficult and may prevent attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our current management.
Provisions in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association that will become effective upon the closing of this offering may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control of us that shareholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. These provisions could also limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for our common shares, thereby depressing the market price of our common shares. In addition, these provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult for shareholders to replace members of our board of directors. Because our board of directors is responsible for appointing the members of our management team, these provisions could in turn affect any attempt by our shareholders to replace current members of our management team. Among others, these provisions include the following:
our board of directors will be divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms which may delay or prevent a change of our management or a change in control;
our board of directors will have the right to elect directors to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of our board of directors or the resignation, death or removal of a director, which will prevent shareholders from being able to fill vacancies on our board of directors;
our shareholders will not be able to act by written consent, as a result, a holder, or holders, controlling a majority of our shares would not be able to take certain actions other than at annual shareholders’ meetings or special shareholders’ meetings;
our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association do not allow cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority shareholders to elect director candidates;
amendments of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association will require the approval of shareholders holding 66 2/3% of our outstanding voting shares (unless amended by the board of directors);
our shareholders will be required to provide advance notice and additional disclosures in order to nominate individuals for election to our board of directors or to propose matters that can be acted upon at a shareholders’ meeting, which may discourage or deter a potential acquiror from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquiror’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company; and
our board of directors will be able to issue, without shareholder approval, preferred shares with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to acquire us.
Moreover, because we are incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, we are governed by the provisions of BVI Business Companies Act, 2004, as amended, or the BVI Act, which provide for different shareholder rights than a Delaware

corporation. See, for example, the risk factor titled “Rights of shareholders under British Virgin Islands law differ from those under U.S. law, and, accordingly, you may have fewer protections as a shareholder.”
Our employment agreements with our executive officers may require us to pay severance benefits to any of those persons who are terminated in connection with a change in control of us, which could harm our financial condition or results.
Certain of our executive officers are parties to employment agreements that contain change in control and severance provisions providing for aggregate cash payments of up to approximately $         million for severance and other benefits and acceleration of vesting of share options in the event of a termination of employment in connection with a change in control of our company. The accelerated vesting of options could result in dilution to our existing shareholders and harm the market price of our common shares. The payment of these severance benefits could harm our financial condition and results. In addition, these potential severance payments may discourage or prevent third parties from seeking a business combination with our company.
Because we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common shares in the foreseeable future, capital appreciation, if any, will be our shareholders’ sole source of gain.
We have in the past declared dividends on our share capital. Please see Note 8 to our annual consolidated financial statements for further information. We currently intend to retain all of our future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business. In addition, the terms of existing or any future debt agreements may preclude us from paying dividends. For example, our credit agreement and guaranty with Madryn restricts our ability to pay dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common shares will be our shareholders’ sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.
Risks Related to Being a British Virgin Islands Company
Rights of shareholders under British Virgin Islands law differ from those under U.S. law, and, accordingly, you may have fewer protections as a shareholder.
Our corporate affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the BVI Act, and the common law of the British Virgin Islands. The rights of shareholders to take legal action against our directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under British Virgin Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the British Virgin Islands and by the BVI Act. The common law of the British Virgin Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the British Virgin Islands as well as from English common law, which has persuasive, but not binding, authority on a court in the British Virgin Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under British Virgin Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedents in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the British Virgin Islands has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States , and some states (such as Delaware) have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law. As a result of the foregoing, holders of our ordinary shares may have more difficulty in protecting their interests through actions against our management, directors or major shareholders than they would as shareholders of a U.S. company.
The laws of the British Virgin Islands provide limited protection for minority shareholders, so minority shareholders will have limited or no recourse if they are dissatisfied with the conduct of our affairs.
Under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, there is limited statutory law for the protection of minority shareholders other than the provisions of the BVI Act dealing with shareholder remedies, as summarized under “Description of Share Capital-Shareholders’ Rights Under British Virgin Islands Law Generally.” One protection under statutory law is that shareholders may bring an action to enforce the constituent documents of a British Virgin Islands company and are entitled to have the affairs of the company conducted in accordance with the BVI Act and the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the company. As such, if those who control the company have disregarded the requirements of the BVI Act or the provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, then the courts will likely grant relief. Generally, the areas in which the courts will intervene are the following: (i) an act complained of which is illegal; (ii) acts that constitute oppression, unfair discrimination or unfair prejudice against the minority where the wrongdoers control the company; (iii) acts that infringe on the personal rights of the shareholders, such as the right to vote; and (iv) acts where we have not complied with provisions requiring approval of a special or extraordinary majority of shareholders, which are more limited than the rights afforded to minority shareholders under the laws of many states in the United States.

Table of Contents

British Virgin Islands law differs from the laws in effect in the United States, and U.S. investors may have difficulty enforcing civil liabilities against us, our directors or members of senior management named in this prospectus.
Under our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, we may indemnify and hold our directors harmless against all claims and suits brought against them, subject to limited exceptions. Furthermore, to the extent allowed by law, the rights and obligations among or between us, any of our current or former directors, officers and employees and any current or former shareholder will be governed exclusively by the laws of the British Virgin Islands and subject to the jurisdiction of the British Virgin Islands courts, unless those rights or obligations do not relate to or arise out of their capacities as such. Although there is doubt as to whether U.S. courts would enforce these provisions in an action brought in the United States, under U.S. securities laws, these provisions could make judgments obtained outside of the British Virgin Islands more difficult to enforce against our assets in the British Virgin Islands or jurisdictions that would apply British Virgin Islands law.
British Virgin Islands companies may not be able to initiate shareholder derivative actions, thereby depriving shareholders of one avenue to protect their interests.
British Virgin Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States . The circumstances in which any such action may be brought, and the procedures and defenses that may be available in respect of any such action, may result in the rights of shareholders of a British Virgin Islands company being more limited than those of shareholders of a company organized in the United States. Accordingly, shareholders may have fewer alternatives available to them if they believe that corporate wrongdoing has occurred. The British Virgin Islands courts are also unlikely to recognize or enforce judgments of courts in the United States based on certain liability provisions of U.S. securities law, or to impose liabilities based on certain liability provisions of the U.S. securities laws that are penal in nature, in original actions brought in the British Virgin Islands. There is no statutory recognition in the British Virgin Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the British Virgin Islands will generally recognize and enforce the non-penal judgment of a non-U.S. court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits. This means that even if shareholders were to sue us successfully, they may not be able to recover anything to make up for the losses suffered.

New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this prospectus may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We estimate that the net proceeds from our issuance and sale of our common shares in this offering will be approximately $            million, or approximately $            million if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full, assuming an initial public offering price of $                 per common share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of $                  per common share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase (decrease) the net proceeds from this offering by approximately $            million, assuming that the number of shares we are offering, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We may also increase or decrease the number of shares we are offering. Each increase (decrease) of 1,000,000 shares in the number of shares we are offering would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $            million, assuming that the assumed initial public offering price remains the same, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions payable by us.
We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering as follows:
approximately $            million to $            million to fund a PMA study in order to obtain regulatory approval to market and sell our Motiva Implants in the United States;
approximately $5.0 million to fund the repayment of indebtedness due to former Class Z preferred shareholders pursuant to promissory notes we issued to such holders in exchange for such shares; and
the remainder to fund working capital and other general corporate purposes.
This expected use of the net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including the progress of our development and commercialization efforts and the status of and results from clinical studies, as well as any collaborations that we may enter into with third parties and any unforeseen cash needs. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this offering.
Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments such as money market funds, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and U.S. government securities.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have in the past declared dividends on our share capital. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. Future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then existing conditions, including our operating results, financial conditions, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, our credit agreement with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders restricts our ability to pay dividends.

The Common Shares currently have a par value of $1.00. We intend to amend our memorandum and articles of association such that prior to the effectiveness of this registration statement, the Common Shares shall have no par value.
The number of common shares to be outstanding after this offering is based on 14,771,383 shares outstanding as of March 31, 2018 and excludes:
983,739 common shares issuable upon the exercise of share options outstanding as of March 31, 2018 granted under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan with a weighted-average exercise price of $6.74 per share;
145,000 common shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants outstanding as of March 31, 2018 with an exercise price of $3.80 per share;
433,031 common shares issuable upon the vesting of restricted stock awards outstanding as of March 31, 2018, under our 2015 Equity Plan;
625,000 Class G-1 ordinary shares issued to RTW Investments’ affiliated entities and 285,559 Class G ordinary shares issued to several investors after March 31, 2018;
up to 100,000 common shares reserved for issuance in connection with acquisition-related obligations; and
                     common shares reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation plans, consisting of (i)                       common shares initially reserved for issuance under our 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, which we expect to be effective on the business day immediately prior to the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part (if approved by our shareholders) upon completion of this offering, and (ii)                       common shares initially reserved for issuance under our 2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan, which we expect to be effective on the business day immediately prior to the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part (if approved by our shareholders). Our 2018 Equity Incentive Plan and 2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan also provide for automatic annual increases in the number of shares reserved under such plans each year, as more fully described in the section titled “Executive Compensation-Employee Benefit and Share Plans.”

DILUTION
If you invest in our common shares, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of common shares in this initial public offering and the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per common share immediately after this offering.
As of March 31, 2018 , our pro forma net tangible book value was approximately $            million, or $              per common share. Our pro forma net tangible book value per common share represents the amount of our total tangible assets reduced by the amount of our total liabilities and divided by the total number of common shares outstanding as of March 31, 2018 , after giving effect to the conversion of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares into an aggregate of 14,771,383 common shares immediately prior to the completion of this offering .
After giving effect to (i) the sale by us of            common shares in this offering at an assumed initial public offering price of $            per common share, which is the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and (ii) the repayment of $5.0 million of promissory notes held by former Class Z preferred shareholders, which repayment will occur in connection with this offering , our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2018 would have been $            million, or $              per common share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of $              per common share to our existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of $              per common share to investors purchasing shares in this offering.
The following table illustrates this dilution:

The dilution information discussed above is illustrative only and will be adjusted based on the actual initial public offering price, the number of shares offered and other terms of this offering determined at pricing. Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of $              per common share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase (decrease) our pro forma net tangible book value, as adjusted to give effect to this offering, by $              per common share, the increase (decrease) attributable to this offering by $              per common share, and the dilution in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering by $              per common share, assuming the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions payable by us. Each increase (decrease) of 1,000,000 shares in the number of shares offered by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus would increase (decrease) our pro forma net tangible book value, as adjusted to give effect to this offering, by $              per common share, the increase (decrease) attributable to this offering by $              per common share, and the dilution in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering by $              per common share, assuming that the assumed initial public offering price of $              per common share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full, the pro forma net tangible book value per common share after giving effect to this offering would be $              per common share, and the dilution in net tangible book value per common share to investors in this offering would be $              per common share.
The following table summarizes, as of March 31, 2018 on the pro forma as adjusted basis described above, the differences between the number of shares purchased from us, the total consideration paid to us in cash and the average price per share that existing stockholders and investors in this offering paid for such shares. The calculation below is

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of $              per common share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase (decrease) total consideration paid by new investors by approximately $              million, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and increase (decrease) the percent of total consideration paid by new investors by        %, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same. Each increase (decrease) of 1,000,000 shares in the number of shares offered by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus would increase (decrease) total consideration paid by new investors by approximately $                 million, assuming that the assumed initial public offering price of $                per common share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and increase (decrease) the percent of total consideration paid by new investors by         %, assuming that the assumed initial public offering price of $                per common share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
Except as otherwise indicated, the above discussion and tables assume no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. After giving effect to the sale of shares in the offering by us, if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full, our existing shareholders would own              % and new investors would own              % of the total number of common shares outstanding upon the completion of this offering.
The number of common shares to be outstanding after this offering is based on 14,771,383 shares outstanding as of March 31, 2018 and excludes:
983,739 common shares issuable upon the exercise of share options outstanding as of March 31, 2018 granted under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan with a weighted-average exercise price of $6.74 per share;
145,000 common shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants outstanding as of March 31, 2018 with an exercise price of $3.80 per share;
433,031 common shares issuable upon the vesting of restricted stock awards outstanding as of March 31, 2018, under our 2015 Equity Plan;
625,000 Class G-1 ordinary shares issued to RTW Investments’ affiliated entities and 285,559 Class G ordinary shares issued to several investors after March 31, 2018;
up to 100,000 common shares reserved for issuance in connection with acquisition-related obligations; and
                     common shares reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation plans, consisting of (i)                       common shares initially reserved for issuance under our 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, which we expect to be effective on the business day immediately prior to the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part (if approved by our shareholders) upon completion of this offering, and (ii)                       common shares initially reserved for issuance under our 2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan, which we expect to be effective on the business day immediately prior to the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part (if approved by our shareholders). Our 2018 Equity Incentive Plan and 2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan also provide for automatic annual increases in the number of shares reserved under such plans each year, as more fully described in the section titled “Executive Compensation-Employee Benefit and Share Plans.”
To the extent that any outstanding options or warrants are exercised, or new options or warrants are issued, there will be further dilution to investors participating in this offering.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the section titled “Selected Consolidated Financial Data” and the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this prospectus.
Overview
We are a medical technology company focused on improving patient safety and aesthetic outcomes, initially in the breast aesthetics and reconstruction market. Our line of silicone gel-filled breast implants, branded as Motiva Implants, is the centerpiece of our MotivaImagine medical technology platform. Post-market surveillance data, which was not generated in connection with an FDA PMA approval study and was self-collected rather than collected at mandatory follow-ups, and published third-party data indicates that Motiva Implants show low rates of adverse events (including rupture, capsular contracture, and safety related reoperations) that we believe compare favorably with those of our competitors. We believe the proprietary technologies that differentiate our Motiva Implants enable improved safety and aesthetic outcomes and have helped drive our revenue growth. Our MotivaImagine platform enables surgical techniques that we promote as Motiva branded surgeries. We have developed other complementary products and services on our MotivaImagine platform, which are aimed at further enhancing patient outcomes.
We have devoted a majority of our resources since inception to developing our Motiva Implants, which we began selling in October 2010. We have incurred net losses in each year since inception, and we have financed our operations primarily through private equity financings and debt financings. Our revenue for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 was $19.8 million and $34.7 million , respectively, an increase of $14.9 million , or 75% . Net losses increased from $22.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 to $34.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 . As of December 31, 2017 , we had an accumulated deficit of $67.9 million .
Our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 was $6.9 million and $14.8 million , respectively, an increase of $7.9 million , or 114% . Net losses increased from $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . As of March 31, 2018 , we had an accumulated deficit of $74.4 million .
Our cash balance as of March 31, 2018 was $6.6 million . In multiple closings between April and June 2018, we issued an aggregate of $4.6 million of Class G ordinary shares at a purchase price of $16.00 per share to several investors. On May 17, 2018, we issued 625,000 shares of Class G-1 ordinary shares at a purchase price of $16.00 per share to entities affiliated with RTW Investments for an aggregate purchase price of $10.0 million.
We have made and continue to make significant investments in additional manufacturing capacity, marketing, customer service, and a direct sales force in certain territories like Brazil and several countries in Europe in order to drive and support further adoption of our Motiva Implants. We also intend to continue to make significant investments to conduct our PMA clinical trial in the United States, with the goal of obtaining FDA approval and commercializing our Motiva Implants in the United States, continue research and development of new and existing products and on programs to educate physicians about the benefits of our products. We also expect to incur significant additional expenditures as a public company.
As a result of these and other factors, we expect to continue to incur net losses in the intermediate term and may need to raise additional capital through equity and debt financings in order to fund our operations. Our operating results may fluctuate on a quarterly or annual basis in the future, and our growth or operating results may not be consistent with predictions made by securities analysts, if any. If we are unable to achieve our revenue growth objectives, we may not be able to achieve profitability.
We will continue to incur losses at least in the near term as we expand our organization to support planned sales growth, while also continuing to invest in research and development of our products, clinical trials to enable regulatory approval in the United States, and other commercialization efforts.

Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
We commenced sales of our Motiva Implants in October 2010 and these products have historically accounted for the majority of our revenues. Sales of our Motiva Implants accounted for over 85% of our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017, and we expect our revenues to continue to be driven primarily by sales of these products. We primarily derive revenue from sales of our Motiva Implants to two types of customers: (1) medical distributors and (2) direct sales to physicians, hospitals, and clinics.
We recognize revenue related to the sales of products at the time of shipment, except for a portion of our direct sales revenue that is generated from the sale of consigned inventory maintained at physician, hospital, and clinic locations. For consignment sales, revenue is recognized at the time we are notified by the customer that the product has been implanted. Our contracts with distributors do not typically contain right of return or price protection and have no post-delivery obligations.
We expect our revenue to increase as we enter new markets, expand awareness of our products in existing markets, and grow our distributor network and direct sales force. We also expect our revenue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to a variety of factors, including seasonal fluctuations in demand for Motiva Implants. We are also affected by foreign currency fluctuations, however, to date, the net impact of foreign currency translation has been insignificant.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin
Our implants are manufactured at our two facilities in Costa Rica, one of which opened in 2017. Cost of revenue is primarily the cost of silicone but also includes other raw materials, packaging, components, quality assurance, labor costs, as well as manufacturing and overhead expenses. Cost of revenue also includes depreciation expense for production equipment, and amortization of certain intangible assets.
We calculate gross margin as revenue less cost of revenue for a given period divided by revenues . Our gross margin may fluctuate from period to period depending, in part, on the efficiency and utilization of our manufacturing facilities, targeted pricing programs, and sales volume based on geography, customer and product type.
Operating Expenses
Sales, General and Administrative
Sales, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses primarily consist of compensation, including salary, share-based compensation and employee benefits for our sales and marketing personnel, and for administrative personnel that support our general operations such as information technology, executive management, financial accounting, customer service, and human resources personnel. SG&A expenses also includes costs attributable to marketing, sales support, travel, legal services, financial audit fees, insurance costs, and consulting services. We expect to incur additional SG&A expenses in connection with our becoming a public company, which may increase further when we are no longer able to rely on the “emerging growth company” exemption we are afforded under the JOBS Act.
We expect our SG&A expenses to continue to increase in absolute dollars for the foreseeable future as our business grows and we continue to invest in our sales, marketing, medical education, training and general administration resources to build our corporate infrastructure. However, we expect our SG&A expenses to decrease as a percentage of our revenue over the long term, although our SG&A expenses may fluctuate from period to period due to the timing of expenses related to our sales and marketing campaigns.
Research and Development
Our research and development, or R&D, activities primarily consist of engineering and research programs associated with our products under development, as well as R&D activities associated with our clinical development activities. Our R&D expenses primarily consist of compensation, including salary, share-based compensation and employee benefits for our R&D and clinical personnel. We also incur significant expenses for supplies, development prototypes, design and testing, clinical study costs and product regulatory and consulting expenses.
We expect our R&D expenses to continue to increase in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the foreseeable future as we continue to advance our products under development, as well as initiate and prepare for additional clinical studies. We received IDE approval from the FDA in March 2018 to initiate a clinical trial and enrolled the first patient during the first half of 2018. We estimate that total costs for this PMA clinical trial will be between $          million and $          million. We also have other products under development for which we may be required to conduct clinical trials in future periods in order to receive regulatory approval to market these products.

Interest Expense
Interest expense consists primarily of cash and non-cash interest related to outstanding debt and amortization of debt discounts. As of March 31, 2018 , we had $45.0 million in outstanding principal and accrued interest.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
Change in fair value of derivative instruments consists of changes in the fair value of our share warrants and put and call option liabilities, and fair value of our liability to issue shares.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net consists of bank charges, interest income, other non-operating income (expense) and income tax provision.

Revenue
Revenue increased $14.9 million , or 75% , to $34.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to $19.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 . The increase was primarily due to increased sales of Motiva Implants, with the increase driven by greater market penetration in existing geographies and commencement of sales in new geographies.
As of December 31, 2017, our sales organization included 46 employees and contractors, as compared to 8 employees as of December 31, 2016. The increase is primarily attributed to the start of the Brazil commercial operations.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin
Cost of revenue increased $7.3 million , or 75% , to $17.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to $9.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 . The increase was due to higher sales volume of Motiva Implants.
The gross margin for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 has remained consistent at 51% for both periods.

SG&A expense increased $7.6 million , or 33% , to $30.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 , compared to $23.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 . These SG&A increases were, in part, related to our operations in Brazil which saw an increase in sales commissions and personnel costs of $1.8 million, and an increase in operating expenses of $1.9 million. Outside of Brazil, SG&A expenses increased $4.0 million in sales commissions and personnel costs as a result of the hiring of additional sales and administrative employees, offset by a decrease of $2.0 million in professional services costs. SG&A also increased due to an increase in rent expense of $0.5 million, an increase in depreciation and amortization of $0.7 million primarily related to our new facility in Costa Rica, and an increase in insurance costs of $0.5 million.
Research and Development Expense
R&D expense increased $4.1 million , or 151% , to $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 , compared to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 . The increase in R&D expenses consisted primarily of $1.3 million

share-based compensation expense, $2.3 million for outside consulting and advisory expenses, and $0.3 million related to the initiation of our PMA clinical study in the United States.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $10.4 million as compared to $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 . The increase in interest expense is primarily due to the extinguishment of outstanding debt with Perceptive and conversion of debt with CPH in August 2017, and interest related to outstanding debt and amortization of debt discounts on our Madryn Credit Agreement, which we entered into in August 2017.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
Change in fair value of derivative instruments for the year ended December 31, 2017 was expense of $2.4 million as compared with $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 . The increase in change in fair value of derivative instruments is primarily due to changes in the fair value of Madryn derivatives embedded in the credit agreement we entered into in August 2017 and changes in our share warrant liability for warrants issued to CPH and to Perceptive in connection with the respective debt arrangements.

Revenue increased $7.9 million , or 114% , to $14.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The increase was primarily due to increased sales of Motiva Implants, with the increase driven by greater market penetration in existing geographies and commencement of sales in new geographies including Brazil where we started generating revenue during the third quarter of fiscal 2017.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin
Cost of revenue increased $3.4 million , or 97% , to $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The increase was due to higher sales volume of Motiva Implants.
The gross margin increased to 53% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to 49% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 due to an increase in production volume that spread our fixed manufacturing costs over a larger number of units.

SG&A expense increased $2.8 million , or 48% , to $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 , compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . These SG&A increases were, in part, related to our operations in Brazil which saw an increase of $1.4 million primarily related to sales commissions, personnel costs and operating expenses. Outside of Brazil, SG&A expenses increased by $0.5 million due to increase in consulting and audit fees and by $0.8 million due to increase in personnel costs as a result of the hiring of additional sales and administrative employees.
Research and Development Expense
R&D expense increased $0.6 million , or 43% , to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 , compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The increase in R&D expenses consisted primarily to the initiation of our PMA clinical study in the United States.

Interest expense increased $1.2 million , or 134% , to $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The increase in interest expense is primarily due to interest related to outstanding debt and amortization of debt discounts on our Madryn Credit Agreement, which we entered into in August 2017.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
Change in fair value of derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was expense of $1.3 million as compared to an expense of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The increase in change in fair value of derivative instruments in fiscal 2018 was primarily due to changes in the fair value of Madryn derivatives embedded in the credit agreement we entered into in August 2017 while the change in fair value of derivative instruments in fiscal 2017 primarily related to changes in our share warrant liability for warrants issued to CPH and to Perceptive in connection with the respective debt arrangements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2018 , we had an accumulated deficit of $74.4 million . Since our inception, we have generated losses and expect to continue to generate losses in the intermediate term. We have financed our operations through a combination of private equity financings and debt financings, and from cash generated from operations, primarily from the collection of accounts receivable resulting from sales. Our historical cash outflows have primarily been associated with cash used for operating activities such as expansion of our sales and marketing and distributor infrastructure, investing in inventory, R&D activities, asset acquisitions, capital improvements and other working capital needs. As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 , we had cash of $10.9 million and $6.6 million , respectively.
In 2017, we raised capital through a series of equity financing rounds with total gross aggregate proceeds of $27.8 million. Through debt funding we received $38.5 million through the Madryn Credit Agreement, in which we used $15.0 million to pay off the Perceptive debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , the Company received $2.0 million from the issuance of Class G ordinary shares and exercise of stock options. Subsequent to March 31, 2018 , the Company received $14.6 million from the issuance of Class G and G-1 ordinary shares.
We believe that our available cash, cash from operations, and the net proceeds from this initial public offering will be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of the

Table of Contents

financial statements. Our liquidity assumptions may prove to be incorrect, and we could utilize our available financial resources sooner than we currently expect. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
the degree and rate of market adoption of our products;
the cost and timing of our regulatory activities, especially the PMA clinical trial to obtain regulatory approval for our Motiva Implants in the United States;
the emergence of new competing technologies and products;
the costs of R&D activities we undertake to develop and expand our products;
the costs of commercialization activities, including sales, marketing and manufacturing;
the level of working capital required to support our growth; and
our need for additional personnel, information technology or other operating infrastructure to support our growth and operations as a public company.
We may need to raise additional capital to execute our business plan. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, or on terms acceptable to us, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.

Indebtedness
Notes Payable Related Party
In August 2015, we entered into agreements with all of the Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shareholders to exchange their outstanding shares and accumulated dividends for notes payable with a principal balance of $4.3 million. The notes bear interest at a simple rate of 7% per annum with a maturity date of March 31, 2020. Annual payments are due based on achievement of certain annual sales milestones beginning in March 2017, which are accelerated upon the effectiveness of an initial public offering . During fiscal years 2016 and 2017 , we recorded non-cash interest expense of $0.3 million annually, to accrue for interest due on the notes. As of March 31, 2018 the balance of principal and accrued interest for the notes payable related party was $4.9 million .
Madryn Debt
On August 24, 2017, we entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, or the Lenders. The Madryn Credit Agreement provides for up to $55.0 million credit facility, $30.0 million (Term A) of which became available upon signing. The Madryn Credit Agreement matures on June 30, 2023.
Terms B and C under the Madryn Credit Agreement become available to us for an additional $25.0 million, subject to us achieving certain revenue milestones. We met these milestones and borrowed an additional $5.0 million (Term B-1) on October 31, 2017 and $5.0 million (Term B-2) on December 15, 2017 bringing up the total outstanding principal balance to $40.0 million as of December 31, 2017. As of June 15, 2018, we were eligible to draw down an additional $5.0 million (Term B-3) under the amended Credit Agreement, and an additional $10.0 million (Term C) may become available on June 30, 2020 if the required milestones for this tranche are achieved.
Borrowings under the Madryn Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to 3-month LIBOR plus 11.0% per annum provided that no default has occurred. In an event of a default, the interest would increase by an additional 4% per

65

Table of Contents

annum. No principal payments are due until 2021. Eight quarterly payments of 12.5% of the principal amounts borrowed under each tranche are due beginning September 30, 2021 through June 30, 2023.
The Madryn Credit Agreement contains put options related to liquidity events or an event of default and a call option related to voluntary repayment option. We valued these put options and the call option, and allocated a fair value of $15.1 million for these identified embedded derivatives as a debt discount on the original commitment date in August 2017. An additional $5.0 million debt discount was recorded on respective borrowing dates when we met the required milestones and borrowed an additional $10.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. We revalue the options as of each reporting period, and record the change in the fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense. We also incurred legal expenses of $1.3 million , which were recorded as a debt discount and are being amortized over the term of the Madryn Credit Agreement.
The Madryn Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make certain investments, make restricted payments, enter into or undertake certain liquidations, mergers, consolidations or acquisitions and dispose of assets or subsidiaries. In addition, the Madryn Credit Agreement requires us to maintain minimum revenues and liquidity.
We defaulted on the Madryn Credit Agreement on February 28, 2018 when our investment in our Brazilian subsidiary exceeded the allowable $5.0 million threshold permitted under the Madryn Credit Agreement. As a result, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lenders, where the Lenders agreed to forebear from exercising certain rights and remedies through May 18, 2018 and subsequently through July 3, 2018 arising from certain disclosure and other technical defaults under the Madryn Credit Agreement, including those mentioned above with respect our Brazilian subsidiary. Accordingly, as the forbearance agreement did not cover a period exceeding twelve months after the date of the annual financial statements, we recorded the Madryn debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 (see Note 6). Effective June 15, 2018, Madryn Credit Agreement was amended to remove the restrictive covenants that resulted in the technical defaults which allowed the Company to reclassify the arrangement as long-term as of March 31, 2018.

In 2017, we entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. We initially defaulted on the Madryn Credit Agreement on in January 2018 when we failed to put a Qualifying Control Agreement in place for certain bank deposit accounts and subsequently in February 2018 when our investment in our Brazilian subsidiary exceeded the allowable $5.0 million threshold. See discussion above regarding the forebearance and amendment that were undertaken in connection therewith.

Effective June 15, 2018, Madryn Credit Agreement was amended to remove the restrictive covenants that resulted in the technical defaults which allowed the Company to reclassify the arrangement as long-term as of March 31, 2018.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 , we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
JOBS Act Accounting Election
The JOBS Act permits an “emerging growth company” such as us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements including following private company effective dates for new or revised accounting standards.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
We had cash of $10.9 million and $6.6 million as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 , respectively. We manage our cash portfolio for operating and working capital purposes. Our cash balances are held in bank checking and savings accounts, and we believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value of our cash portfolio as a result of changes in interest rates.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
To date, the majority of our revenue has been denominated in U.S. dollars. Some of our operating expenses are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the euro. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may cause us to recognize transaction gains and losses in our consolidated statements of operations. To date, foreign currency gains and losses have not been material to our consolidated financial statements, and we have not engaged in any foreign currency hedging activities. As our international operations grow, we will continue to reassess our approach to managing the risks relating to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017, the effect of an immediate 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates on foreign-denominated accounts as of December 31, 2016 and 2017 would have had an impact of approximately 7% on revenues and would have impacted our net loss by a commensurate amount.
Inflation Risk
We do not believe that inflation had a significant impact on our results of operations for any periods presented in our consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies, Significant Judgments and Use of Estimates
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Our estimates are based on our historical

67

Table of Contents

experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates. We believe that the critical accounting policies discussed below are essential to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s estimates and judgments.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue related to sales of products to distributors or directly to customers in markets where we have regulatory approval, net of trade discounts and allowances. We recognize revenue when all of the following criteria are met:
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
the sales price is fixed or determinable;
collection of the relevant receivable is probable at the time of sale; and
delivery has occurred or services have been rendered.
We recognize revenue related to the sales of products to distributors at the time of shipment of the product, which represents the point in time when the customer has taken ownership and assumed the risk of loss and the required revenue recognition criteria are satisfied. Our distributors are obligated to pay within specified terms regardless of when or if they sell the products. Our contracts with distributors do not typically contain rights of return or price protection and have no post-delivery obligations.
Appropriate reserves are established for anticipated sales returns based on historical experience, recent gross sales and any notification of pending returns. The Company recognizes revenue when title to the product and risk of loss transfer to customers, provided there are no remaining performance obligations required of the Company or any written matters requiring customer acceptance. The Company allows for the return of product from direct customers in certain regions within fifteen days after the original sale and records estimated sales returns as a reduction of sales in the same period revenue is recognized. Sales return provisions are calculated based upon historical experience with actual returns. Actual sales returns in any future period are inherently uncertain and thus may differ from the estimates. If actual sales returns differ significantly from the estimates, an adjustment to revenue in the current or subsequent period would be recorded. To date, sales returns have been de minimis. The Company will continue to monitor sales return activity and will record an allowance for sales returns against accounts receivable if deemed material.
A portion of our revenue is generated from the sale of consigned inventory maintained at physician, hospital, and clinic locations. For these products, revenue is recognized at the time we are notified by the customer that the product has been implanted, not when the consigned products are delivered to the customer’s warehouse.
We have a limited warranty to distributors for the shelf life of the product, which is five years from the time of manufacture. Estimated warranty obligations are recorded at the time of sale. We also offer a warranty to patients in the event of rupture and a replacement program for capsular contracture events provided certain registration requirements are met. Revenue for extended warranties are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement. To date, these warranty and program costs have been de minimis. We will continue to evaluate the warranty reserve policies for adequacy considering claims history.
Deferred revenue primarily consists of payments received in advance of meeting revenue recognition criteria. We have received payments from distributors to provide distribution exclusivity within a geographic area, and recognize deferred revenue on a ratable basis over the term of such contractual distribution relationship. Additionally, we have received payments from customers in direct markets prior to surgical implantation, and recognizes deferred revenue at the time we are notified by the customer that the product has been implanted. For all arrangements, any revenue that has been deferred and is expected to be recognized beyond one year is classified as long-term deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.
Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives of five to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the remaining lease term after factoring expected renewal periods. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in operations. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Substantially all of our

68

manufacturing operations and related property and equipment is located in Costa Rica.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable is stated at invoice value less estimated allowances for returns and doubtful accounts. We continually monitor customer payments and maintain an allowance for estimated losses resulting from customers’ inability to make required payments. In evaluating our ability to collect outstanding receivable balances, we consider various factors including the age of the balance, the creditworthiness of the customer, which is assessed based on ongoing credit evaluations and payment history, and the customer’s current financial condition. In cases where there are circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, an allowance is recorded against amounts due, which reduces the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably believed to be collectible. Historical returns of products have been de minimis, and accordingly no allowance for returns was recorded as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 .
Inventory and Cost of Revenue
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost to purchase or manufacture the inventory or the net realizable value of such inventory. Cost is determined using the standard cost method which approximates actual costs using the first-in, first-out basis. We regularly review inventory quantities in consideration of actual loss experiences, projected future demand, and remaining shelf life to record a provision for excess and slow-moving inventory. No inventory allowance has been recorded as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 .
We recognize the cost of inventory transferred to the customer in cost of revenue when revenue is recognized.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
We record the excess of the acquisition purchase price over the net fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as goodwill. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, we test goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. In connection with the annual impairment test for goodwill, we elected the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If we determine that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the impairment test is performed. Consistent with our assessment that it has only one reporting segment, we have determined that it has only one reporting unit and tests goodwill for impairment at the entity level using the two-step process required by ASC 350. In the first step, we compare the carrying amount of the reporting unit to the fair value of the enterprise. If the fair value of the enterprise exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not considered impaired and no further testing is required. If the carrying value of the enterprise exceeds the fair value, goodwill is potentially impaired and the second step of the impairment test must be performed. In the second step, we compare the implied fair value of the goodwill, as defined by ASC 350, to its carrying amount to determine the impairment loss, if any.
We record purchased intangible assets at their respective estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method over their remaining estimated useful lives, which range from two to fifteen years. We evaluate the remaining useful lives of intangible assets on a periodic basis to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining estimated amortization period. We test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on at least an annual basis and whenever circumstances suggest the assets may be impaired. If indicators of impairment are present, we evaluate the carrying value of the intangible assets in relation to estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. We also evaluate the remaining useful life of an indefinite-lived intangible asset to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life.
During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 , there has been no impairment of goodwill or intangible assets. As of March 31, 2018 , no triggering events have occurred which would indicate that the acquired intangible asset values may not be recoverable.
Long-Lived Assets
We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable. When such an event occurs, management determines whether there has been impairment by comparing the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to the related asset group’s carrying value. If an asset is considered impaired, the asset is written down to fair value, which is determined based either on discounted cash flows or appraised value, depending on the nature of the asset. There were no impairment charges, or changes in estimated useful lives recorded d uring the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017. As of March 31,

69

2018 , no triggering events have occurred which would indicate that the acquired intangible asset values may not be recoverable.
Debt and Embedded Derivatives
We apply the accounting standards for derivatives and hedging and for distinguishing liabilities from equity when accounting for hybrid contracts. We account for convertible debt instruments when we have determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments in accordance with ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options. We record, when necessary, discounts to notes payable for the intrinsic value of conversion and other options embedded in debt instruments as a beneficial conversion option based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying shares at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.
We use option pricing valuation models to determine the fair value of embedded derivatives and records any change in fair value as a component of other income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discounts
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of new debt are capitalized. Capitalizable debt issuance costs paid to third parties and debt discounts paid to creditors, net of amortization, are recorded as a reduction to the long-term debt balance on the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense on capitalized debt issuance costs and debt discounts related to loans are calculated using the effective interest method over the term of the loan commitment, and is recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Share Warrant Liability
We have issued freestanding warrants to purchase shares of our ordinary shares in conjunction with certain debt arrangements. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2017-11 I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments With Down Round Features and II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests With a Scope Exception , we classified the fair value of these warrants as liabilities due to the existence of certain cash settlement features that were not within our sole control and/or existence of a variable settlement provision that caused these warrants not to be indexed to our own shares. At the end of each reporting period, changes in estimated fair value during the period were recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. We used the Monte-Carlo valuation model to determine the fair value of the warrants.
As a result of the complex valuation models used to determine the fair value of the warrants, the valuation of this derivative instrument is subjective because the models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the share price and expected volatility. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and, such impacts can, in turn, result in material non-cash charges or credits in the consolidated statements of operations as other income or expense. We will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the expiration of the warrants, the reclassification of the warrants from a liability to equity, or their exercise.
After the adoption of ASU 2017-11, we are no longer required to classify the warrants issued as a liability. As a result, we recorded a reclassification of warrant liability to additional paid-in capital upon the adoption of the new guidance in the second quarter of 2017.
Income Taxes
We record income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our consolidated financial statements or income tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, expected future events, enactments or changes in the tax law or rates are considered. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
We operate in various tax jurisdictions and are subject to audit by various tax authorities.
We record uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process whereby (1) a determination is made as to whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. Significant judgment is required in the identification of uncertain tax positions and in the estimation of penalties and interest on uncertain tax positions.

There were no uncertain tax positions in fiscal 2016 and 2017 and for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Foreign Currency
The financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries whose functional currencies are the local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars for consolidation as follows: assets and liabilities at the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, stockholders’ equity at the historical rates of exchange, and income and expense amounts at the average exchange rate for the month. Translation adjustments resulting from the translation of the subsidiaries’ accounts are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive income.” Transactions denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currency are converted to the functional currency at the exchange rate on the transaction date. At period end, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured to the functional currency using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included within “Other income (expense), net.”
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) represents all changes in the shareholders’ equity (deficit) except those resulting from and distributions to shareholders. Our comprehensive income consists of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments arising from the consolidation of our foreign subsidiaries.
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred offering costs, consisting of legal, accounting and other fees and costs relating to our planned initial public offering, or IPO, are capitalized within “Other non-current assets” on the consolidated balance sheet. The deferred offering costs will be offset against the proceeds received upon the closing of the planned IPO. In the event the planned IPO is terminated, all of the deferred offering costs will be expensed within loss from operations. As of December 31, 2016 and 2017, $1.1 million and $0, respectively, of deferred offering costs were capitalized. Due to a delayed IPO process beyond 90 days, we expensed the previously deferred offering costs of $1.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2017.
Share-Based Compensation
We measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based awards in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Stock Compensation . Share-based awards granted include stock options and restricted stock awards, or RSAs. Share-based compensation expense for stock options and RSAs granted to employees is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the awards and is recognized as an expense ratably on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The fair value of options to purchase ordinary shares granted to employees is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.
We account for stock options and RSAs issued to non-employees under ASC 505-50 Equity: Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees , using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value stock options. The fair value of such non-employee awards is remeasured at each quarter-end over the vesting period.
The calculation of share-based compensation expense requires that we make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the Black-Scholes model, including the expected term, expected volatility of the underlying common shares, risk-free interest rate and dividends.
We have adopted ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting , under which we will recognize forfeitures as they occur rather than applying a prospective forfeiture rate in advance
The assumptions used in our option-pricing model represent management’s best estimates. These estimates are complex, involve a number of variables, uncertainties and assumptions and the application of management’s judgment. If factors change and different assumptions are used, our share-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. The assumptions and estimates that we use in the Black-Scholes model are as follows:
Fair Value of Common Shares . As the ordinary shares are not publicly traded, we must estimate its fair value, as discussed under Common Share Valuations below. The fair value of ordinary shares was determined on a periodic basis by our board of directors, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm.  The board of directors intended all options granted to be exercisable at a price per share not less than the estimated per share fair value of the shares underlying those options on the date of grant.
Risk-Free Interest Rate . We base the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation model on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term equivalent to that of the expected term of the options for each option group.

71

Table of Contents

Expected Term . The expected term represents the period that our share-based awards are expected to be outstanding. Because of the limitations on the sale or transfer of our shares as a privately held company, we do not believe our historical exercise pattern is indicative of the pattern it will experience as a publicly traded company. We have consequently used the Staff Accounting Bulletin 110, or SAB 110, simplified method to calculate the expected term, which is the average of the contractual term and vesting period. We plan to continue to use the SAB 110 simplified method until it has sufficient trading history as a publicly traded company.
Volatility . We determine the price volatility based on the historical volatilities of industry peers as it has no trading history for its stock. Industry peers consist of several public companies in the medical device industry with comparable characteristics, including revenue growth, operating model and working capital requirements. We intend to continue to consistently apply this process using the same or a similar peer group of public companies until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of our shares becomes available, or unless circumstances change such that the identified peer companies are no longer similar, in which case other suitable peer companies whose common share prices are publicly available would be utilized in the calculation.
Dividend Yield . The expected dividend assumption is based on our current expectations about its anticipated dividend policy. We have no expectation t hat we will declare dividends on its ordinary shares, and therefore have used an expected dividend yield of zero.
We will continue to use judgment in evaluating the assumptions related to our share-based compensation on a prospective basis. As we continue to accumulate additional data, we may have refinements to our estimates, which could materially impact our future share-based compensation expense.
Common Share Valuations
The fair value of our common shares for purposes of share-based awards has historically been determined by our board of directors. Because there has been no public market for our common shares, and in the absence of arm’s-length transactions in our common shares with independent third parties, our board of directors has determined the fair value of our common shares with the support of independent third-party valuations prepared in accordance with the guidelines outlined in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation.
In the course of preparing our financial statements, we reassessed the fair value of our common shares on each grant date in light of all available information, including subsequently issued independent third-party valuations and other pertinent factors. In order to assess the fair value of our common shares, our business enterprise value, or BEV, is determined and then allocated to each element of our capital structure (ordinary shares, warrants and options). Our BEV is estimated using the income approach and the market approach. The discounted cash flow method, or DCF, estimates the enterprise value based on the estimated present value of future net cash flows the business is expected to generate over a forecasted period and an estimate of the present value of cash flows beyond that period, which is referred to as terminal value. The estimated present value is calculated using a discount rate known as the weighted average cost of capital, which accounts for the time value of money and the appropriate degree of risks inherent in the business. Under the market approach, the enterprise value is based on the multiples of comparable companies and transactions. The BEV is allocated using probability-weighted expected return method, or PWERM, which estimates the fair value of common shares based on an analysis of future values for the enterprise assuming various future outcomes. In assessing the fair value of our ordinary shares on each grant date, we considered numerous objectives and subjective factors, including, but not limited to, the following:
independent third-party valuations as of June 30, 2017, September 30, 2017, December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018;
our current and expected operating and financial performance, including our levels of available capital resources;
future revenue, free cash flow, and other capital requirements associated with such revenue;
the discount rate used in the DCF model;
the value of our tangible and intangible assets;
rights and preferences of our ordinary shares;
capital markets conditions affecting comparable public companies, as reflected in comparable companies’ market trading multiples, initial public offering valuations, comparable sales or merger transactions, and other metrics;
the illiquidity of our ordinary shares by virtue of being a private company, and the resulting discount for lack of marketability;

the business risks we face;
the likelihood of achieving a particular liquidity event, such as a sale, a merger, or an initial public offering, given prevailing medical device industry and capital markets conditions; and
the experience of management and the members of our board of directors.
At March 31, 2018 , unrecognized compensation expense was $1.5 million related to stock options granted to employees and directors and $1.8 million related to stock options granted to consultants. The weighted-average period over which such compensation expense will be recognized is 3.0 years.
As of March 31, 2018 , we had unrecognized share-based compensation cost of approximately $4.4 million associated with unvested restricted stock awards. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.3 years.
Based on upon the assumed initial public offering price of $                 per share, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover of this prospectus, the aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of March 31, 2018 was $            million.
Following the closing of this offering, the fair value of our common shares will be determined based on the closing price of our common shares on the grant date.
Recent Accounting Standards
We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, enacted in April 2012. We intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements including following private company effective dates for new or revised accounting standards.
The following recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the “FASB, could have a material effect on our financial statements:
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives And Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting For Certain Financial Instruments With Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement Of The Indefinite Deferral For Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments Of Certain Nonpublic Entities And Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests With A Scope Exception. The standard simplifies the accounting for certain equity-linked financial instruments and embedded features with down round features by no longer requiring entities to consider a down round feature when determining whether a financial instrument is considered indexed to the entity’s own shares and thus can be classified as equity. The guidance must be applied using a full or modified retrospective approach. It is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements of fiscal years or interim periods that have not yet been issued or that have not yet been made available for issuance. We adopted the new guidance in July 2017. As a result, certain warrants that were previously classified as a liability due to an existence of down round features became qualified to be classified as equity. The adoption of this standard resulted in $1.0 million reclassification of warrant liability into additional paid in capital as of July 1, 2017.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting . This ASU provides amendments to the current guidance on determining which changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards require the application of modification accounting. The effects of a modification should be accounted for unless there are no changes between the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the modified award and the original award immediately before the original award is modified. ASU 2017-09 became effective for non-public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition . This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 provides two methods of retrospective application. The first method would require us

73


to apply ASU 2014-09 to each prior reporting period presented. The second method would require us to retrospectively apply ASU 2014-09 with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. ASU 2014-09 is effective for public business entities beginning in fiscal 2018 as a result of ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, ” which was issued by the FASB in August 2015 and extended the original effective date by one year. In 2016, the FASB issued additional updates to the new revenue standard relating to reporting revenue on a gross versus net basis, identifying performance obligations and licensing arrangements, and narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, respectively. The effective date of this additional update is the same as that of ASU 2014-09. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the available methodologies of ASU 2014-09 and the related updated revenue recognition guidance upon its financial statements in future reporting periods. We have not yet selected a transition method. We are in the process of evaluating the new standard against our existing accounting policies, including the timing of revenue recognition, and its contracts with customers to determine the effect the guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and what changes to systems and controls may be warranted.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than twelve months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of twelve months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. ASC 842 supersedes the previous leases standard, ASC 840 Leases. The standard is effective for public business entities on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the effects, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
We have considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and do not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

BUSINESS
Overview
We are a medical technology company focused on improving patient safety and aesthetic outcomes, initially in the breast aesthetics and reconstruction market. Our line of silicone gel-filled breast implants, branded as Motiva Implants, is the centerpiece of our MotivaImagine medical technology platform. Post-market surveillance data, which was not generated in connection with an FDA PMA approval study and was self-collected rather than collected at mandatory follow-ups, and published third-party data indicates that Motiva Implants show low rates of adverse events (including rupture, capsular contracture, and safety related reoperations) that we believe compare favorably with those of our competitors. We believe the proprietary technologies that differentiate our Motiva Implants enable improved safety and aesthetic outcomes and have helped drive our revenue growth. Our MotivaImagine platform enables surgical techniques that we promote as Motiva branded surgeries. We have developed other complementary products and services on our MotivaImagine platform, which are aimed at further enhancing patient outcomes.
To date, most of our revenues have been generated from sales of our Motiva Implants. We began selling Motiva Implants outside the United States in October 2010; since then, we have introduced four generations of Motiva Implants, and Motiva Implants are now sold in over 60 countries, including nine of the top ten countries for breast augmentations in 2016 according to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, or ISAPS. We currently sell our products either via exclusive distributors or, in certain countries, our direct sales force. We received approval of an investigational device exemption, or IDE, from the FDA in March 2018 to initiate our Motiva Implant clinical trial in the United States. The first patient in the study was enrolled in April 2018, and we anticipate completing enrollment in early 2019. The results of the study are expected to support a pre-market approval, or PMA, submission to the FDA.
We have assembled a broad portfolio of intellectual property related to our medical device and aesthetics products. We believe this intellectual property, combined with proprietary manufacturing processes and the regulatory approvals we have successfully obtained outside of the United States , provides us with a strong market position. As of April 30, 2018, we own or have rights to three issued and seven pending patents in the United States related to various aspects of our Motiva implants (such as implant barrier layers, surface texture technology, minimally invasive implant delivery systems, and our QInside Safety Technology radio frequency identification devices). In addition, we have six pending foreign applications and six pending PCT applications. We intend to continue to expand our intellectual property portfolio and, combined with our Motiva Implants’ favorable safety profile, obtain FDA approval and drive Motiva’s adoption in the United States, which represents the largest breast augmentation market.
Our revenue for 2015, 2016 and 2017 was $9.6 million, $19.8 million and $34.7 million , respectively, an increase of $10.2 million, or 106% in 2016 compared to 2015, and an increase of $14.9 million , or 75% in 2017 compared to 2016 . Net losses increased from $1.6 million in 2015 to $22.2 million in 2016 , and further increased to $34.9 million in 2017 , an increase of 57% compared to 2016. As of December 31, 2017 , we had an accumulated deficit of $67.9 million .
Our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 was $6.9 million and $14.8 million , respectively, an increase of $7.9 million , or 114% . Net losses increased from $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . As of March 31, 2018 , we had an accumulated deficit of $74.4 million .

Traditional Breast Implants and Their Limitations
Despite the global demand for breast augmentation procedures, there has been relatively little innovation since the 1990s. In 1992, due to emerging safety concerns, the FDA placed a moratorium on sales of silicone breast implants in the United States that was lifted in 2006. This, combined with the ongoing FDA requirement for a PMA on all new breast implants, has discouraged breast implant innovation over the past 30 years. Current products have relatively high adverse event rates, and we believe many do not mimic natural breast tissue. The table below contains selected adverse event information from published data from the PMA clinical trials conducted by the only three companies currently approved to market silicone breast implants in the United States.

Each of these prospective studies was conducted at multiple sites in the United States and submitted by each of these companies as their core study supporting approval, as that term is defined in the FDA Guidance on Breast Implants. Sientra, Inc., Mentor Worldwide LLC (a division of Johnson & Johnson), and Allergan plc studies commenced in 2002, 2000, and 1998, respectively, and the results described above were released in 2012, 2009, and 2007, respectively. Five-year and six-year data was chosen to increase comparability to our six-year data.
Kaplan-Meier risk rates were the primary method of analysis for the above data.

This 10-year data for Sientra, Allergan and Mentor were released in 2018, 2018, and 2015, respectively.
(1)  The rupture rates represent the MRI cohort only for each respective study, which consists of 571 patients for Sientra, 158 patients for Allergan and 202 patients for Mentor.
We believe that the improved appearance, feel and patient safety profile of our Motiva Implants provides a strong competitive advantage that will help us to both capture market share and achieve higher patient conversion rates by addressing the key concerns described by patients who choose not to pursue breast augmentation surgery.
Our Competitive Strengths
Patient-centric innovative implant technologies. We have developed our Motiva Implants by enhancing and creating novel product components for our implants, and then combining these components into products that deliver improved aesthetic outcomes, increased patient satisfaction and favorable safety profiles.
Extensive suite of complementary products and services. Our MotivaImagine product portfolio includes innovative products such as Divina 3D surgical simulation systems, Puregraft autologous fat grafting systems, and other surgical tools. We believe our branded surgical procedures, such as MotivaHybrid, Motiva MinimalScar and Motiva MINT, will address key unmet needs for both the physician and the patient.
Proprietary internal manufacturing processes and capabilities. We manufacture our silicone products in state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in Costa Rica rather than relying on third-party manufacturers. In these facilities, we utilize our novel 3D imprinted molding method to create proprietary surface features that, in combination with other proprietary materials and methods, differentiate our products from those of our competitors. Our two manufacturing sites have gone through full site inspections and audits under the Medical Device Single Audit Program, or MDSAP, which were carried out by the British Standards Institute, or BSI, an agency which the FDA accepts as a substitute for routine agency inspections. We believe our modern facilities, focus on product quality and deep technological know-how have helped us establish and maintain a brand of consistency, quality and safety.
Dynamic worldwide sales platform. We sell our products both through exclusive arrangements with leading local distributors who have strong local surgeon relationships and our direct sales force in key markets such as Brazil and certain countries in Europe. Using this market specific approach, we have built an effective and efficient worldwide sales platform.
Proven management team with expansive industry experience. We have a highly experienced management team that is comprised of leaders from the medical aesthetic market.

Our Growth Strategy
Our goal is to be the global leader in aesthetic surgical implant technology, including breast implants, while improving patient safety through product innovation. The key elements of our strategy include:
Expand revenues in existing markets. We believe we can continue to grow market share in our existing markets due to the favorable safety profile and improved aesthetic outcomes of our Motiva Implants.
Launch Motiva Implants in additional markets outside the United States . We expect that continued geographic expansion will be a key driver of growth in the near term. During 2016 and 2017, we started sales through distributors in Australia, Israel, Russia, Saudi Arabia and South Korea, as well as starting direct sales in Brazil, the second largest market for breast augmentations. Expansion into new countries in the Asia-Pacific region (China, India, Taiwan and Thailand) is expected in the next several years .
Obtain FDA approval and enter the U.S. market. We are conducting our IDE clinical trial in the United States, with the goal of obtaining approval from the FDA for a premarket application, or PMA, and commercializing our Motiva Implants in the United States. The first patient in the study was enrolled in April 2018, and we anticipate completing enrollment in early 2019.
Optimize patient conversion through sales and marketing programs. Our MotivaImagine Centers enable us to engage with and educate patients on the Motiva brand and the benefits of our products, as well as increase clinical efficiency for our physician collaborators. In the future, we expect our MotivaImagine Centers to have important strategic synergies with our branded surgeries, which are promoted globally. We employ a multi-faceted marketing strategy that includes social media engagement, conferences, advertisements and education.
Seek out and pursue strategic acquisitions. We intend to seek out other innovative products, services and branded procedures that meet unmet needs in the aesthetics space and complement our existing product portfolio, and we believe this can be additive to future revenue growth. We have purchased distributor networks in strategic markets and may acquire other third party sales organizations in the future. While we have no specific acquisitions or planned licensing agreements, we may engage in these, or other strategic transactions, with the goal of augmenting our existing product portfolio and global footprint.
Continue a high level of engagement with key opinion leaders. We promote Motiva Implants, in part, via an extensive and robust calendar of physician education events led by key opinion leaders in the field of aesthetic surgery. In 2018, we will conduct approximately 70 events through our MotivaEdge educational platform. We also collaborate actively with respected and influential key opinion leader surgeons to identify and develop new clinical applications for our existing products, as well as new product and strategic opportunities.

Motiva Implants
We launched Motiva Implants commercially in October 2010, and to date we have sold over 446,000 units in various countries outside the U.S. Motiva Implants incorporate a number of proprietary features that we believe contribute to Motiva Implants’ favorable safety profile as well as a natural appearance and feel. Our latest generation of Motiva Implants utilize our proprietary Ergonomix design, a round base implant that responds to gravity by shifting its maximum point of projection, offering the projection of a shaped implant without the malpositioning and rotation issues frequently associated with shaped implants. Furthermore, our ProgressiveGel family of silicone gel rheologies consists of four highly purified biocompatible gels with specific visco-elastic properties that we believe enables Motiva Implants to respond to the patient’s motion in ways that more closely mimic the appearance, feel and movement of natural breast tissue . Our catalog includes over 1,000 product variations, with round, oval and anatomical shapes, two different surfaces and volumes ranging from 105cc to 1,050cc, making it a wider range of options than those offered by our major competitors.
SilkSurface/SmoothSilk    
The International Standard Organization, through the new April 2018 standard (ISO 14607:2018), created a classification of implant surface textures according to roughness. This standard includes an objective way of defining the difference between smooth, micro and macro surfaces based on roughness average. The topology of SilkSurface/SmoothSilk is characterized under the smooth category, having a low roughness value of 3.6 microns with approximately 49,000 contact features per square centimeter, with a mean feature height of 13 microns and a defined, narrow distribution of feature sizes.

Table of Contents

Our retrospective implant data shows that Motiva Implants have a lower rate of capsular contracture and seromas when compared to available published data from competitors. We believe that these results are due in large part to the proprietary surface texturing of our Motiva Implants. Our proprietary shell surfaces are smoother and have more regular surface features than those of our primary competitors based on several studies using methods such as scanning electron microscopy, profilometry testing and statistical parameters comparisons.
A study performed in mice at the Langer Lab, by Professor Robert Langer, Institute Professor at the MIT Department of Chemical Engineering indicated that our SmoothSilk/SilkSurface attracts fewer macrophages than a traditional smooth surface. A larger percentage of macrophages in the cell mix indicates an inflammatory response, which is an early step in capsule formation. We believe the more moderate inflammatory response observed on SmoothSilk/SilkSurface is responsible for improved biocompatibility and lower complication rates.
In addition, an abstract presented in 2017 by researchers at Montana State University showed less accumulation of both bacteria and biofilm on SmoothSilk/SilkSurface in vitro when compared to smoother and textured surfaces. Biofilm formed on implant surfaces increases the risk of bacteria accumulation and capsule formation.
The graph below shows how the size of our surface features compares with those of our competitors.
BUSINESSB18.JPG
ProgressiveGel Family
The proprietary silicone chemistries that comprise our ProgressiveGel family allow for a high degree of cohesiveness and strength, but add characteristics such as softness and high ductility that enable movement dynamics more like that of natural breast tissue. We believe that the cohesive properties reduce the likelihood of silicone gel leakage in the event of a rupture in the shell. The strength of the gel is believed to contribute to a reduced frequency of gel fracture, a condition which leads to deformed implant shape and stress on the implant’s shell. While other manufacturers have claimed a “high strength” gel, ours combines a notably high elasticity (the ability to stretch without permanent deformation) with low viscosity, both of which reduce the susceptibility of the implant to rupture or breakage while improving their tactile feel and movement dynamics. Additionally, the improved adhesion of the gel to the shell structure avoids the appearance of separation spots, an aesthetic defect commonly seen in competitor products.
In addition to the safety advantages, our ProgressiveGel family provides for movement characteristics that resemble natural breast tissue. Our later generation Ergonomix products further mimic natural tissue, with a maximum point of projection that shifts downward to create a natural human breast shape when a patient is standing. This allows our Motiva Implants to provide the more natural aesthetics of “shaped” or “teardrop” implants without the risk of associated drawbacks such as breast deformation form rotation and unnaturally hard tactile feel. The images below illustrate the implants’ ability to change shape depending on the patient’s positioning.

TrueMonobloc
Our TrueMonobloc technology, which is incorporated into all generations of Motiva Implants currently sold, combines proprietary chemistry with our proprietary manufacturing techniques to create a shell, gel and other components that are tightly bound to one another. This results in an implant that is more homogeneously elastic and resistant to separation of the gel from the shell, addressing one type of implant failure that can lead to shell ruptures and silicone leaks. This also enables Motiva Implants to be stretched and squeezed to a more significant degree, which we believe currently enables breast augmentation through incision sizes smaller than one inch, compared with the published industry norm of approximately two inches. A branded surgery that we are developing, which we call Motiva Minimally Invasive Natural Technique, or Motiva MINT, would utilize a next-generation implant to take advantage of these physical properties to enable a less-invasive procedure for the patient. The implants associated with Motiva MINT have been developed, and we plan to begin the CE marking process in 2018. Instruments and special devices for the Motiva MINT procedure are currently being prototyped and tested and will require regulatory approval prior to commercialization. The following image shows that TrueMonobloc enables significant manipulation of a Motiva Implant without separation of gel from shell.
BUSINESSA08.JPG
QInside Safety Technology RFID Technology
We offer the QInside Safety Technology as an optional feature in our Motiva Implants. QInside Safety Technology provides a Radio-Frequency Identification Device, or RFID, microtransponder, specially manufactured and encapsulated for implantation in the human body, that is embedded in the gel of a Motiva Implant. The microtransponder contains only a unique 15 digit code that identifies the product, and does not contain any patient information . This microtransponder can be read with a simple pass from our non-invasive and inexpensive reading device, the QInside Safety Technology Reader, and the serial number corresponds with related information in our MotivaImagine database such as implant type, size and other characteristics. Patients can create a secure account, register the products and include applicable patient information either through the MotivaImagine application or our website, to access their implant information. Surgeons can access that implant-related information through our Motiva Implants website, but they can only view patient-specific information of patients that have been linked to them after the patient or the surgeon creates a secure account and registers the products and provide patient information. The MotivaImagine application and Motiva Implants website also allow the patient to access the implant warranty information. This traceability is intended to give patients comfort that any future recalls can be positively identified as applying, or not applying, to that patient’s particular implant. This addresses a key concern that often discourages women who are otherwise interested in implants from making the choice to move forward with surgery. Motiva Implants are currently the only breast implants on the international market with QInside Safety Technology; however, we believe there is an opportunity to sell these microtransponders to our competitors in the space.

Each implant’s unique electronic serial number is encoded into the RFID circuitry as part of a three point authentication system: the microtransponder, the reader and the database. This authentication system prevents unauthorized access to any personal information of the patient and is compliant with FDA regulations .
We also believe that additional functionality can be added to this microtransponder platform. Future potential applications currently under development include temperature sensing as a means of infection detection or pressure sensing as a means of detection of shell rupture.
BUSINESSA11.JPG
BluSeal
Our BluSeal technology embeds a visually distinct layer of blue silicone into the SilkSurface shell. This patent-pending manufacturing innovation is intended to highlight any imperfections in the barrier layer coverage with a distinct color. This provides the plastic surgeon with the ability to verify whether the barrier layer has coverage defects or other imperfections before implantation that might lead to post-implantation shell rupture or gel bleed. We believe this is another safety innovation that contributes to our substantially lower reported implant rupture rates as compared to reports for our primary competitors.
BUSINESSA12.JPG
Divina 3D Simulation System
We sell our Divina 3D surgical simulation systems to distributors and plastic surgeons for use in pre-surgical patient consultations and planning. Divina utilizes a combination of 3D imaging hardware and proprietary Tissue Behavior Simulation software to give physicians and patients the ability to visualize the potential aesthetic result of a procedure and to explore various implant sizes in real time.
Current methodologies for choosing the base size and projection of an implant are highly subjective. The same size implant will yield very different aesthetic results depending on the patient’s existing breast mass, breast shape, and torso geometry. Divina improves this process in two key ways: for the physician, the simulation engine and software allows a rapid and precise way to narrow down the patient’s choices to a handful of Motiva Implant sizes that will yield the

Table of Contents

patient’s desired look, and for the patient, the ability to see a rendered simulation of her own body increases the level of confidence that a surgery will achieve her aesthetic goals.
We believe that the addition of a Divina system to a clinic can facilitate an increase in the number of patients who proceed from a consultation to a surgical procedure. We intend to make the sale of Divina systems a key component of our sales and marketing strategy going forward.
Puregraft and Tulip - Autologous Fat Augmentation
Adipose (fat) tissue removed from one area of a patient’s body can be re-injected under the skin of the face, breasts, or in other areas where augmentation and shaping are desired. In the breast augmentation context, there is an unmet need for predictable contouring around the edges of the breast, both with and without volume augmentation via silicone implants. Puregraft LLC’s line of products provides surgeons with a tool for additional contouring around breast implants, which we call MotivaHybrid when used in combination with Motiva Implants and a 3D pre-surgical scan using our Divina system or another 3D scanning system.
In an independent study by Gerth et al. reported in the peer-reviewed Aesthetic Surgery Journal in 2014 conducted between November 2010 and November 2012, 26 patients that had received autologous adipose tissue grafts for facial contouring processed via Puregraft had significantly higher long-term retention of volume when compared to 33 patients that had received grafts processed using conventional means, with statistical significance being determined by a p-value of 0.03. In another independent study conducted by Sforza et al. at Dolan Park Hospital published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal in 2016, in the breast augmentation setting, a clinical study of 26 patients, whose implant procedures were subsequently enhanced with Puregraft-enabled grafts between April 2013 and October 2014, resulted in approximately 73% of fat volume being retained by patients at one year, and 96% of patients reported satisfaction with the outcome. We believe these results illustrate the benefits of Puregraft versus other conventional means of extracting and purifying this tissue.
In September 2016, we became the exclusive distributors, outside the United States and Canada, of the Puregraft line of products for autologous adipose tissue harvesting and redistribution. Puregraft LLC currently sells its products in the United States and Canada itself. These devices are CE Marked for sale outside the United States and Canada, and hold a 510(k) clearance for sale in the United States. The initial term of our distribution agreement with Puregraft ends in September 2019, but we have the ability to renew the agreement at the end of the initial term if we wish to do so and meet certain minimum purchase requirements.
These procedures require a cannula for tissue extraction and reinsertion, and we also sell a special cannula for this purpose made by Tulip Medical Products. This cannula is differentiated by its proprietary rounded shape and low-friction coating, which are aimed at reducing trauma to the patient or implant during the procedure.
MotivaImagine Centers
We utilize our MotivaImagine Center initiative, which are collaborations with plastic surgery clinics whereby we provide them with access to our technologies and the ability to brand themselves as a MotivaImagine Center. In exchange for these services and use of the Motiva branding, each MotivaImagine Center commits to use Motiva Implants and other products in the MotivaImagine product platform. Before certifying a MotivaImagine Center, we ensure that the center offers:
either our Divina or AX3 3D simulator, or a third party cloud-based visualization software that we sell in partnership with Crisalix systems;
access to the full suite of MotivaImagine products that complement Motiva Implants;
surgical staff trained by Establishment Labs in the optimal use of MotivaImagine products; and
branding and design elements, according to company guidelines, that are intended to create a more luxurious and reassuring experience for patients.
Since 2016, 28 independent clinics outside the United States have elected to become MotivaImagine Centers, and we are pursuing enrollment of additional centers as a key component of our sales and marketing strategy. We also intend to utilize the network of MotivaImagine Centers as a channel for other future aesthetic surgical products on our MotivaImagine platform .
Branded Surgeries
Our suite of products and technologies enables surgical techniques that we intend to develop and promote as “branded surgeries.” Our first such branded surgery, MotivaHybrid, combines 3D pre-surgical assessment of existing breast tissue volume using either our Divina system or another 3D scanning system, together with Motiva Implants and Puregraft

83

Table of Contents

autologous adipose tissue grafts. The MotivaHybrid method is designed to enable surgeons to optimize silicone volume using Motiva Implants and balance the ratio of silicone to tissue with additional contouring using Puregraft for more natural balanced results and improved patient satisfaction. Our second branded surgery, Motiva MinimalScar, allows surgeons to significantly reduce the size of the surgical incision by using our proprietary MotivaImagine Ultralight LED Retractor in conjunction with the Motiva Insertion Sleeve. We are also developing Motiva Minimally Invasive Natural Technique, or Motiva MINT — a family of branded surgeries that we anticipate will allow breast augmentation through small incisions. We intend for Motiva MINT to allow breast augmentation procedures to be performed under local anesthesia rather than general anesthesia, with faster recovery times and a resulting reduction of surgical complications. The implants associated with Motiva MINT have been developed, and we currently intend to begin the CE marking process in 2018. Instruments and special devices for the Motiva MINT procedure are currently being prototyped and tested and will require regulatory approval prior to commercialization. We believe Motiva MINT will be able to attract new customers and expand the market for breast aesthetic procedures.
Our Clinical Data
7-Year Safety Postmarket Surveillance Data
Dating from the commercial launch of Motiva Implants in October 2010 through March 2018, we have sold approximately 446,000 breast implants in various countries outside the United States and Canada. We maintain a Quality Management System database to log all complaints received from patients or physicians. Since 2010, a total of 324 complaints have been reported, investigated and processed, representing less than 0.1% of the total patients receiving Motiva Implants as of March 2018. There were no reported cases of late seroma, double capsule formation or ALCL in this data set, and there were six cases of seroma. The table below shows the rates of rupture, capsular contracture and reoperation for adverse events of our Motiva Implants from data gathered through March 2018. In contrast to the above competitor data, our data is self-reported rather than collected at mandatory follow-ups and was generated solely for our post-market surveillance instead of in connection with an FDA PMA approval study. All of these patients were located outside the United States.

Independent Clinical Experience
An independent study by Sforza et al., published in the peer-reviewed Aesthetic Surgery Journal in 2017, conducted between April 2013 and April 2016, reported 5,813 consecutive cases of breast augmentation with Motiva Implants. This independent study was not commissioned by us, but Dr. Sforza is a member of our medical advisory board and receives compensation from us in such capacity. The study reported overall rates of complication and reoperation of 0.76% over an interval of three years. All procedures were performed in a single center (Dolan Park Hospital, Bromsgrove, England) by a group of 16 plastic surgeons. There were no serious adverse events and no cases of implant rupture for device failure, capsular contracture (Baker III/IV) in primary cases, double capsules, or late seromas. The authors presented consistent real-world data and believe that their free, three year aftercare system is a strong method for patient retention and follow-up by eliminating any financial limitations for patients to return for follow-up consultations if any issues occur. Anecdotally, the same group of surgeons utilizing the same aftercare system for the last seven years reported substantially different results utilizing other types of silicone breast implants (i.e, non-Motiva Implants). The overall revision rate for this group from 2010 to 2013 utilizing a different, macro-textured, FDA approved implant (N > 10,000) was 8.43%, which is more than 10 times higher than the rate for Motiva Implants reported in this analysis.

10-Year Prospective Trial: 4- and 7-year Data
In addition to the review of safety data shown above, we are conducting a prospective study at a single clinical center in Costa Rica to assess patient safety with Motiva Implants. The study is being conducted by two board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeons at a single plastic surgery center accredited by the American Association for Accreditation of Surgery Facilities. Both of the surgeons who conducted this study are related to our chief executive officer. The participants in the study received two Motiva Implants free of charge and the plastic surgery center received an additional two Motiva Implants for each patient enrolled as compensation for the study. This study measures outcomes similar to those that will be required in our planned, larger, clinical study to support U.S. marketing authorization. The current study has enrolled 233 patients in two groups: Group A (n=35 patients, with 30 currently evaluable for seven year follow-up) and Group B (n=198, with 47 currently evaluable through four year follow-up). Group B was an expansion cohort enrolled after sufficient initial safety had been demonstrated in Group A. All patients were elective primary augmentation cases. The protocol calls for follow-up evaluations at 24 hours, four days, two weeks, one month, three, six, twelve months, two years and three years, with yearly evaluations thereafter, and the final evaluation at ten years post-implantation. The table below shows patient adverse event rates from our prospective study of Motiva Implants.

In Group A, 32 patients have reached the seven year evaluation point. Two patients out of the 32 primary augmentation cases followed up for seven years did not attend the seven year follow-up visit. There have been no cases reported of implant rupture, capsular contracture, double capsule, late seroma, seroma, ALCL or reoperation for safety reasons. Two patients opted for reoperation to change the breast implant size, and one patient opted for a revision surgery with mastopexy (breast lift). The most common adverse events were changes in nipple sensation, ptosis (lengthening of the breasts), and post-operative pain.

In Group B, 198 patients have been enrolled as of April 2018, with 47 Group B patients evaluable through the four year valuation point. Group B has not resulted in any cases of implant rupture, capsular contracture, double capsule, late seroma, seroma, ALCL or reoperation for safety reasons.
No serious illness were attributed to the implants in either Group A or Group B.
Study To Support a PMA
We have started conducting a prospective IDE clinical trial in the United States . Our IDE request was approved by the FDA on March 20, 2018 to perform a single open-label, multi-center trial, with follow-up visits available at the time of filing. We will continue to monitor patients for ten years post-implantation. The primary endpoints of the trial will be safety, effectiveness and patient satisfaction. In general, our trial design and patient enrollment are consistent with prior PMA studies conducted by Allergan, Mentor, and Sientra. Our first patient was enrolled in the clinical trial on April 6, 2018, and we anticipate completing enrollment in early 2019.
Sales and Marketing
We primarily derive revenue from sales of our Motiva implants from two types of customers: (1) medical distributors and (2) direct sales to physicians, hospitals, and clinics. We currently sell our products in over 60 countries through exclusive distributors, except in Brazil, France, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and the United Kingdom where we sell through our direct sales force. As of March 31, 2018 , our sales organization included 55 employees and contractors. All of these sales personnel are supported through a suite of tools, including marketing and training materials, mobile smartphone applications, and access to a robust schedule of physician education events. We also apply significant attention to helping our distributors maintain positive relationships with surgeons and clinics in their respective regions, and to positioning our product in the marketplace as a premium product with consequent premium pricing.
We demonstrate our confidence in Motiva Implants with the Motiva Always Confident Warranty, which offers patients a free replacement for any Motiva Implant that ruptures, for the life of the product. We also replace any implant which is replaced due to capsular contracture of Baker Grade III or IV severity at any time in the first 10 years post-implantation. We also offer an extra-cost extended warranty, which provides financial assistance of up to $2,500 to cover surgical costs resulting from rupture or capsular contracture.
We employ a multi-faceted marketing strategy that includes social media engagement, conferences, advertisements and education.

Intellectual Property
Our success depends at least in part upon our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this, we rely on a combination of intellectual property rights, including patents, trade secrets and trademarks, as well as customary contractual protections.
We have assembled a broad portfolio of intellectual property related to our medical device and aesthetics products. We believe this intellectual property, combined with proprietary manufacturing processes and the regulatory approvals we have successfully obtained outside of the United States , provides us with a strong market position. As of April 30, 2018, we own or have rights to three issued and seven pending patents in the United States related to various aspects of our Motiva implants (such as implant barrier layers, surface texture technology, minimally invasive implant delivery systems, and our QInside Safety Technology radio frequency identification devices). In addition, we have six pending foreign applications and six pending PCT applications. Our owned and licensed patents are expected to expire at various times between March 2026 and September 2034. Our owned and licensed pending applications, if granted, likely would expire between April 2027 and October 2037.
In addition to pursuing patents on our products, we have taken steps to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technology by entering into confidentiality agreements and intellectual property assignment agreements with our employees, consultants, corporate partners, and, when needed, our advisors. Such agreements may not be enforceable or may not provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets or other proprietary information in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure or other breaches of the agreements, and we may not be able to prevent such unauthorized disclosure. Monitoring unauthorized disclosure is difficult, and we do not know whether the steps we have taken to prevent such disclosure are, or will be, adequate. In addition, we intend to expand our international operations, and effective patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret protection may not be available or may be limited in foreign countries.
In general, the medical device industry is characterized by the existence of a large number of patents and frequent allegations and related litigation regarding patent and other intellectual property rights. Third parties, including our

86

Table of Contents

competitor companies, may assert patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights against us, our partners or our customers. Our standard license and other agreements may obligate us to indemnify our partners and customers against such claims. We could incur substantial costs and divert the attention of our management and technical personnel in defending against any such claims. Successful claims of infringement by a third party could prevent us from selling or distributing certain products or performing certain services, require us to expend time and resources to develop non-infringing products, or force us to pay substantial damages, including treble damages if we are found to have willfully infringed patents-royalties or other fees. We cannot assure you that we do not currently infringe, or that we will not in the future infringe, upon any third-party patents or other proprietary rights.
Research and Development
Our goal is to continue to improve the existing products on our MotivaImagine platform, as well as develop new products and new branded surgical techniques. We have a highly experienced team and deep customer and key opinion leader relationships. We also have sophisticated internal prototyping and testing equipment. These allow us to invent, develop, test, and commercialize products with in-house resources. As a result, we have introduced four distinct generations of Motiva Implant product since October 2010, with innovative features added to each successive generation.
We have and will continue to work with several institutions in our effort to advance implant technology, and generate additional scientific data to support the improved safety outcomes associated with our products, including:
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
Medical University of Innsbruck
Plastic and Reconstructive Research Center at the University of Manchester
Center for Biofilm Engineering of Montana State University
The Chair of Plastic Surgery at the School of Medicine and Psychology of Sapienza University of Rome
Microscopic Structure Research Center of the University of Costa Rica 
We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, significant research and development expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, our research and development expenses were $0.6 million, $2.7 million and $6.9 million , respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, our research and development expenses were $1.5 million and $2.1 million , respectively. Our research and development expenses consist of costs associated with our clinical and post-approval studies, regulatory activity and product development, including the development of Motiva Implants and other current and future aesthetic and reconstruction surgical devices on the MotivaImagine platform.
Implantable RFID Microtransponder Platform
The RFID technology platform that we use in the QInside feature of our Motiva Implants is independently cleared as a system via the FDA’s 510(k) pathway. We are developing more sophisticated functionality using this technology platform. We believe our RFID technology will be an attractive platform for a variety of other applications, including unique device identification for other types of implantable medical devices, functional implantable biosensors, and diagnostic monitoring. Future specific indications include detection of device life cycles (e.g. flexion/contraction cycles for artificial hip and knee joints) and monitoring of analytes such as circulating tumor cells and blood chemistry components. Some of these applications we may choose to develop and commercialize internally, while others may be more appropriately commercialized via partnerships with other medical device companies.
We control all the activities of the development and manufacturing of our QInside Safety Technology RFID transponders. This allows us for adapting to specific needs or new developments in our field.
Manufacturing and Suppliers
Facilities
We manufacture our products in ISO-13485-certified manufacturing facilities located in the Coyol Free Zone office park in Costa Rica, a park populated by a number of international medical device companies and granted tax-advantaged status by the government of Costa Rica. Our newest and largest manufacturing facility opened at the end of 2016 and we began shipping manufactured product from this facility in March 2017. This facility has more than 13,000 square feet of office space and production areas which are capable of producing over 400,000 implants a year, with state-of-the-art support systems for sustaining production, including an ice-bank system for cooling the controlled air in the clean room and support areas, water-lubricated air compressors for eliminating the presence of oil particulates, heat recovery systems for energy saving, and an energy micro-grid comprised of solar panels and energy-storage batteries. These energy efficient systems generate up to 80% of the total energy consumption of the building, which received LEED Gold

87

Table of Contents

Certification by the U.S. Green Building Council in August 2017. Our initial facility was established in 2009 and has about 3,000 square feet of production areas, capable of producing over 100,000 implants a year.
In July 2017, both facilities received the MDSAP regulatory certification. MDSAP was established by a coalition of international medical device regulatory authorities including Australia’s TGA, Brazil’s ANVISA, Health Canada, Japan’s MHLW and PMDA and the U.S. FDA. The goal of MDSAP is to allow a single regulatory audit of a medical device manufacturer’s Quality Management System to satisfy the needs of the participating regulatory jurisdictions. This program enables manufacturers to contract with an authorized third-party auditing organization, in our case the British Standards Institute, to conduct a single audit to satisfy the relevant regulatory requirements of the participating regulatory authorities including the FDA, which recognizes MDSAP audit reports as a substitute for FDA Establishment Inspection Reports.
We are also subject to periodic inspections and audits by various international regulatory and notified bodies, and we believe our past performance in these audits reflects the strength of our quality system and manufacturing controls. We consider this to be a key element of our risk management and business continuity strategies and a competitive advantage as we have full control of the product life-cycle. Our in-house manufacturing team includes over 200 employees, all of whom undergo well defined training programs throughout their period of employment. We believe our manufacturing experience, know-how, and process-related trade secrets are also a competitive advantage.
Process
We produce our shell surfaces using a novel 3D negative imprinting molding technique that allows much more precise control over feature size, a uniform distribution of features on the surface, no particles creation, and less unit-to-unit variation. Our primary competitors utilize the “salt-loss” technique or “polyurethane foam imprint” technique. The “salt-loss” technique blows crystals of salt or sugar onto the uncured silicone shell in order to produce surface texture and the “polyurethane foam imprint” technique uses a foreign material to press against the last uncured silicone layer to produce surface features. We believe our 3D negative imprinting technique is more efficient and consistent than the techniques used by our competitors because the application of our surface texture is integrated with the molding process, rather than requiring a separate, subsequent process.
Suppliers
We source manufacturing inputs from a number of outside suppliers. In particular, we obtain NuSil brand medical-grade silicone from Avantor (previously NuSil Technology LLC ), which is a sole-source supplier of such product to the entire silicone breast implant industry. In 2016, we entered into a new supply agreement with NuSil-Avantor, which provides for specified prices per unit of each relevant component through 2021, with potential extensions beyond that date.
Other critical materials are the silicone patches and other silicone components used for the assembly of our breast implants. All these components are also made with NuSil medical-grade silicone, and manufactured by specialized silicone contract manufacturing suppliers. All component suppliers undergo strict quality inspections to ensure these can meet our quality standard. Other important components are the primary packaging polycarbonate trays, the Tyvek sealing lids and packaging. All these components are also critical to maintain integrity of the product throughout its shelf-life and all these suppliers must be qualified and materials must be validated prior to being approved for manufacturing activities. Most suppliers are evaluated annually and we carry second source supplier activities to ensure business continuity and quality and costs improvement.
Competition
The market for silicone breast implants is relatively concentrated, with Allergan plc and Mentor Worldwide LLC, a division of Johnson & Johnson. In the United States , Sientra, Inc. is the only other company with an approved silicone implant product. Internationally, the market is more fragmented, with GC Aesthetics plc, Silimed, Inc., Groupe Sebbin SAS, Hans Biomed Crop., Polytech Health & Aesthetics, and Arion Laboratories.
Our major competitors in the silicone marketplace are either publicly-traded companies or divisions or subsidiaries of publicly-traded companies with significantly more market share and resources than we have. These companies have greater financial resources for sales, marketing and product development, broader established relationships with health care providers and third-party payors, and larger and more established distribution networks. In some instances, our competitors also offer products that include features that we do not currently offer in all geographies . Our competitors also have regulatory approval to market and sell their products in countries where we currently do not, notably the United States . In addition, our competitors may offer pricing programs with discounts across their non-breast aesthetic product portfolios.

88

Table of Contents

We also face potential future competition from a number of companies, medical researchers and existing medical device companies that may be pursuing new implant technologies. These include non-implant breast augmentation through injections of autologous adipose tissue, new material technologies such as synthetic fillers, and new methods of enhancing and reconstructing the breast.
We believe the primary competitive factors in our current and future markets include:
safety and outcomes data generated in clinical studies;
regulatory approvals;    
technological characteristics of products;
complementary platforms of non-implant products, such as facial fillers and fat grafting technologies;
product price;
customer service; and
support by key opinion leaders.
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
Breast implants are regulated as Class III medical devices in the United States , and are subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as implemented and enforced by the FDA. The FDA administers requirements covering the design, development, testing, safety, effectiveness, manufacturing, labeling, promotion, advertising, distribution, and postmarket surveillance of medical devices. Medical devices are classified as Class I (lowest risk), II (moderate risk), or III (highest risk). Unless an exemption applies or the product is a Class I device, each medical device that we market must first receive either premarket notification clearance (by filing a 510(k) submission) or premarket approval (by filing a PMA) from the FDA. Breast implants are currently classified as Class III devices requiring an approved PMA for commercial distribution. In addition, certain modifications made to marketed devices also may require 510(k) clearance or approval of a PMA supplement.
The process of obtaining FDA clearance or approval of a medical device can be lengthy and costly. The FDA’s 510(k) clearance process usually takes from three to twelve months, but it can take longer. The process of obtaining PMA approval is much more costly, lengthy, and uncertain, and is generally preceded by the conduct of pre-clinical testing and a well-controlled clinical study. The FDA’s guidance document “Saline, Silicone Gel, and Alternative Breast Implants” currently recommends that a core study, which can be a single, open label, multi-center study, be conducted with ten years or more of prospective patient follow-up. To date, PMAs for silicone breast implants have been submitted for approval to the FDA with a minimum of three years of premarket core study data. Additionally, the FDA will not approve the PMA until it conducts a pre-approval inspection of our manufacturing facility and determines that it is in compliance with good manufacturing practices, as set forth in the FDA’s Quality System Regulation or QSR. The PMA review and approval process generally takes from one to three years, but may take longer. The FDA’s guidance document “Saline, Silicone Gel, and Alternative Breast Implants” also states that manufacturers seeking approval of breast implants will be subject to post-approval requirements, which may include, but are not limited to, long-term follow-up of the core clinical study patients, conduct of separate post-approval studies, participation in a patient registry or other studies, and training programs for physicians and surgeons, and periodic reporting requirements.
In addition to regulations governing 510(k) and PMA submissions, we are subject to regulations governing the conduct of clinical investigations, including regulations related to informed consent, Institutional Review Board review and approval, Good Clinical Practices, or GCPs, and labeling of investigational devices. Our clinical study sites are subject to possible inspection by the FDA. We received an IDE approval from the FDA in March 2018, to initiate a clinical trial and our first patient was enrolled in April 2018.
When we initiate commercial distribution of our devices in the United States , we will be subject to FDA device listing and establishment registration, good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the QSR, labeling requirements, reporting of adverse events and device malfunctions, post-approval restrictions or conditions, post-market surveillance requirements, and reporting requirements for product recalls, or corrections or removals in the field. Our manufacturing facilities, as well as those of certain of our suppliers, will be subject to periodic and for-cause inspections by the FDA to verify compliance with the QSR and other regulatory requirements.
HIPAA and Other Privacy Laws
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, established for the first time comprehensive protection for the privacy and security of protected health information. HIPAA standards apply to three types of organizations, or “Covered Entities”: certain health plans, health care clearing houses, and health care providers which conduct certain health care transactions electronically. Covered Entities and their “Business Associates”: entities that

89

Table of Contents

perform services on behalf of a Covered Entity that involves the creation, use, maintenance or disclosure of protected health information, must have in place administrative, physical, and technical standards to guard against the misuse of protected health information. Some of the institutions and physicians from which we obtain biological specimens that we use in our research and validation work are Covered Entities and must obtain proper authorization from their patients for the subsequent use of those samples and associated clinical information. We may perform future activities that may implicate HIPAA, such as providing clinical laboratory testing services or entering into specific kinds of relationships with a Covered Entity or a Business Associate of a Covered Entity.
Additionally, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, enacted as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 amended HIPAA by increasing the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against Covered Entities, their Business Associates and possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts to enforce the federal HIPAA laws and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions.
Our activities must also comply with other applicable privacy laws. For example, there are also international privacy laws that impose restrictions on the access, use, and disclosure of health information. All of these laws may impact our business. If we fail to comply with these privacy laws, or if significant changes in the laws restrict our ability to obtain tissue samples and associated patient information, this could significantly impact our business and our future business plans.
Federal and State Billing and Fraud and Abuse Laws
Antifraud Laws/Overpayments
As participants in national and state health care programs, we may be subject to numerous national and state antifraud and abuse laws in various countries. Many of these antifraud laws are broad in scope, and neither the courts nor government agencies have extensively interpreted these laws. Prohibitions under some of these laws include:
the submission of false claims or false information to government programs;
deceptive or fraudulent conduct;
excessive or unnecessary services or services at excessive prices; and
prohibitions in defrauding private sector health insurers.
One of these statutes, the federal False Claims Act, is a key enforcement tool used by the government to combat health care fraud. The federal False Claims Act imposes liability on any person who, among other things, knowingly presents, or causes to be presented, a false or fraudulent claim for payment by a federal health care program. In addition, violations of the federal physician self-referral laws, such as the Stark laws discussed below, may also violate false claims laws.
Numerous federal and state agencies enforce the antifraud and abuse laws. In addition, private insurers may also bring private actions. In some circumstances, private whistleblowers are authorized to bring fraud suits on behalf of the government against providers and are entitled to receive a portion of any final recovery.
Federal and State “Self-Referral” and “Anti-kickback” Restrictions
Self-Referral Law
We will be subject to a federal “self-referral” law, commonly referred to as the “Stark” law, which provides that physicians who, personally or through a family member, have ownership interests in or compensation arrangements with a laboratory are prohibited from making a referral to that laboratory for laboratory tests reimbursable by Medicare, and also prohibits laboratories from submitting a claim for Medicare payments for laboratory tests referred by physicians who, personally or through a family member, have ownership interests in or compensation arrangements with the testing laboratory. The Stark law contains a number of specific exceptions which, if met, permit physicians who have ownership or compensation arrangements with a testing laboratory to make referrals to that laboratory and permit the laboratory to submit claims for Medicare payments for laboratory tests performed pursuant to such referrals. The Stark law contains similar prohibitions and exceptions with respect to referrals by physicians for other designated health services to entities in which the referring physician has a financial interest.
We will be subject to comparable state laws, some of which apply to all payors regardless of source of payment, and do not contain identical exceptions to the Stark law. For example, we will be subject to a North Carolina self-referral law that prohibits a physician investor from referring to us any patients covered by private, employer-funded or state and federal employee health plans. The North Carolina self-referral law contains few exceptions for physician investors in securities that have not been acquired through public trading, but will generally permit us to accept referrals from physician investors who buy their shares in the public market.

90

Table of Contents

We have several shareholders who are physicians in a position to make referrals to us. We have included within our compliance plan procedures to identify requests for testing services from physician investors and we do not bill Medicare, or any other federal program, or seek reimbursement from other third-party payors, for these tests. The self-referral laws may cause some physicians who would otherwise use our laboratory to use other laboratories for their testing.
Anti-Kickback Statute
The federal Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits persons from knowingly and willfully soliciting, receiving, offering or paying remuneration, directly or indirectly, to induce either the referral of an individual, or the furnishing, recommending, or arranging for a good or service, for which payment may be made under a federal health care program, such as the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The term “remuneration” is not defined in the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and has been broadly interpreted to include anything of value, including for example, gifts, discounts, the furnishing of supplies or equipment, credit arrangements, payments of cash, waivers of payment, ownership interests and providing anything at less than its fair market value. The reach of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute was also broadened by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, or PPACA, which, among other things, amended the intent requirement of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and certain criminal health care fraud statutes . Pursuant to the statutory amendment, a person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of this statute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation. In addition, PPACA provides that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the federal False Claims Act or the civil monetary penalties statute, which imposes penalties against any person who is determined to have presented or caused to be presented a claim to a federal health program that the person knows or should know is for an item or service that was not provided as claimed or is false or fraudulent.
The OIG has criticized a number of the business practices in the clinical laboratory industry as potentially implicating the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, including compensation arrangements intended to induce referrals between laboratories and entities from which they receive, or to which they make, referrals. In addition, the OIG has indicated that “dual charge” billing practices that are intended to induce the referral of patients reimbursed by federal health care programs may violate the federal Anti-Kickback Statute.
Many states have also adopted laws similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, some of which apply to the referral of patients for health care items or services reimbursed by any source, not only the Medicare and Medicaid programs, and do not contain identical safe harbors. For example, North Carolina has an anti-kickback statute that prohibits health care providers from paying any financial compensation for recommending or securing patient referrals. Penalties for violations of this statute include license suspension or revocation or other disciplinary action. Other states have similar anti-kickback prohibitions.
Both the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and the North Carolina anti-kickback law are broad in scope. The anti-kickback laws clearly prohibit payments for patient referrals. Under a broad interpretation, these laws could also prohibit a broad array of practices involving remuneration where one party is a potential source of referrals for the other.
Federal and State Transparency Laws
Beginning in August 2013, the Physician Payment Sunshine Act, enacted as part of PPACA, and its implementing regulations requires certain medical device manufacturers to track certain financial arrangements with physicians and teaching hospitals, including any “transfer of value” made or distributed to such entities, as well as any investment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Manufacturers are required to report this information to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS , on an annual basis. Various states have also implemented regulations prohibiting certain financial interactions with health care professionals or mandating public disclosure of such financial interactions. We may incur significant costs to comply with such laws and regulations now or in the future.
If we or our operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws described above or any other governmental regulations that apply to us, we may be subject to penalties, including civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, fines, exclusion from participation in U.S. federal or state health care programs, additional reporting and government oversight, and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations. To the extent that any product we make is sold in a foreign country in the future, we may be subject to similar foreign laws and regulations, which may include, for instance, applicable post-marketing requirements, including safety surveillance, anti-fraud and abuse laws, and implementation of corporate compliance programs and reporting of payments or transfers of value to health care professionals. To reduce the risks associated with these various laws and governmental regulations, we have implemented a compliance plan. Although compliance programs can mitigate the risk of investigation and prosecution for violations of these laws, the risks cannot be entirely eliminated. Any action against us for violation of these laws, even if we

91

Table of Contents

successfully defend against it, could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and divert our management’s attention from the operation of our business. Moreover, achieving and sustaining compliance with applicable federal and state privacy, security and fraud laws may prove costly.
International Medical Device Regulations
International marketing of medical devices is subject to foreign government regulations, which vary substantially from country to country. The European Commission is the legislative body responsible for directives, including Directive 93/42/EEC which, once implemented in each member state, must be complied with by manufacturers selling medical products in the EU and the European Economic Area, or EEA. The EU includes most of the major countries in Europe, while other countries, such as Norway and Switzerland, are part of the EEA and European Free Trade Area, or EFTA, respectively, and have voluntarily adopted laws and regulations that mirror those of the EU with respect to medical devices. The EU directives address regulation of the design, manufacture, labeling, clinical studies and post-market vigilance for medical devices. Devices that comply with the requirements of a relevant directive will be entitled to bear the CE conformity marking, indicating that the device conforms to the essential requirements of the applicable directives and, accordingly, can be marketed throughout the EU and EEA.
Outside of the EU, regulatory pathways for the marketing of medical devices vary greatly from country to country. In many countries, local regulatory agencies conduct an independent review of medical devices prior to granting marketing approval. For example, in China, approval by the SFDA must be obtained prior to marketing an medical device. In Brazil, the inspections and approvals of products and facilities carried out by the ANVISA and InMetro agencies are required prior to marketing a Class 3a medical device like our Motiva Implants. The process in such countries may be lengthy and require the expenditure of significant resources, including the conduct of clinical trials. In other countries, the regulatory pathway may be shorter or less costly. The timeline for the introduction of new medical devices is heavily impacted by these various regulations on a country-by-country basis, which may become longer and more costly over time.
U.S. Health Care Reform
In March 2010, the PPACA was enacted, which includes measures that have or will significantly change the way health care is financed by both governmental and private insurers. The PPACA contains a number of provisions, including those governing enrollment in federal health care programs, reimbursement changes and fraud and abuse measures, all of which will impact existing government health care programs and will result in the development of new programs. The PPACA, among other things, could result in the imposition of injunctions and imposes a tax of 2.3% on the retail sales price of medical devices sold after December 31, 2012. This tax may apply to Motiva Implants and some or all of our products which are in development. The excise tax has been temporarily suspended through the end of 2019 , but will be reinstated in 2020 without additional Congressional action.
Some provisions of the PPACA have yet to be implemented, and there have been judicial and Congressional challenges to certain aspects of the PPACA, as well as recent efforts to repeal or replace certain aspects of the PPACA. While Congress has not passed comprehensive repeal legislation, we expect there will be additional challenges and amendments to the PPACA in the future.
In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the PPACA was enacted. For example, the Budget Control Act of 2011, among other things, created the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction to recommend proposals for spending reductions to Congress. The Joint Select Committee did not achieve a targeted deficit reduction of at least $1.2 trillion for the years 2013 through 2021, which triggered the legislation’s automatic reduction to several government programs, including aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2% per fiscal year, starting in 2013, which , due to subsequent legislative amendments to the statute, including the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, will remain in effect through 2027 unless additional Congressional action is taken. In January 2013, former President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, or the ATRA, which delayed for another two months the budget cuts mandated by the sequestration provisions of the Budget Control Act of 2011. The ATRA, among other things, also reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals, and increased the statute of limitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. In March 2013, former President Obama signed an executive order implementing sequestration, and in April 2013, the 2% Medicare reductions went into effect.

Board Composition
Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors, which currently consists of seven members including six non-employee directors and one executive director, our Chief Executive Officer, Juan Jose Chacon Quiros.
Following the completion of this offering, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association will provide for a classified board of directors, with each director serving a staggered, three-year term. As a result, only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of our shareholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms. The terms of the directors will expire upon the election and qualification of successor directors at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held during 2019 for the Class I directors, 2020 for the Class II directors and 2021 for the Class III directors. Our directors will be divided among the three classes as follows:
the Class I directors will be                           and                           , and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2019;
the Class II directors will be                           and                           , and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2020; and
the Class III directors will be                           and                           , and their terms will expire at the annual meeti ng of shareholders to be held in 2021.
Upon expiration of the term of a class of directors, directors for that class will be elected for three-year terms at the annual meeting of shareholders in the year in which that term expires. Each director’s term shall continue until the election and qualification of his or her successor, or his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of authorized directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors.
The division of our board of directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms may delay or prevent a change of our management or a change of control. Under British Virgin Islands law and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, our directors may be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our voting shares.
Director Independence
In connection with this offering, we intend to apply to list our common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq. Under the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors within a specified period of time after this offering.
Our board of directors has undertaken a review of its composition, the composition of its committees, and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our board of directors has determined that Ms. Colleran, Drs. Hung and Weinstein and Messrs. Schutter and Condon have no relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of director and that each of these directors is “independent,” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq. In making this determination, our board of directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company, any other transactional relationships a non-employee director may have with our company, and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital shares held by each non-employee director and any of his and our respective affiliates.
Audit committee members must satisfy separate independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3, under the Exchange Act. To be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3 and under the rules of Nasdaq, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, board of directors, or any other board committee: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries; or (2) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.
Committee Independence Phase-In Provisions
Certain exemptions are available to us under the rules of Nasdaq and under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act that allow companies a phase-in period for complying with committee independence requirements after an initial public offering. Under these exemptions, companies are permitted to phase in compliance with these rules and regulations as follows: (1) one member must satisfy the requirement at the time of listing; (2) a majority of members must satisfy the

98

Table of Contents

requirement within 90 days of listing; and (3) all members must satisfy the requirement within one year of listing. We intend to utilize these exemptions. Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq or the Exchange Act.
There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.
Board Leadership Structure
Our board does not have a policy on whether the offices of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer should be separate and, if they are to be separate, whether the Chairman of the Board should be selected from among the independen t directors. Our board believes that it should have the flexibility to make these determinations at any given time in the way it believes best to provide appropriate leadership for us at that time. Our board has reviewed our current board leadership structure in light of the composition of the board, our size, the nature of our business, the regulatory framework under which we operates, and other relevant factors. Considering these factors, Mr. Chacon Quiros serves as our Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Lewin serves as our Chairman and has authority, among other things, to preside over board of directors meetings, and to call special meetings of the board. However, no single leadership model is right for all companies and at all times. Our board of directors recognizes that depending on the circumstances, other leadership models might be appropriate in the future. As a result, our board of directors may periodically review its leadership structure.
Role of the Board in Risk Oversight
Our board of directors is primarily responsible for the oversight of our risk management activities and has delegated to the audit committee the responsibility to assist our board in this task. The audit committee also monitors our system of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and reviews contingent financial liabilities. The audit committee, among other things, reviews and discusses with management reports regarding our enterprise risk management activities, including management’s assessment of our major risk exposures and the steps taken to monitor and manage those exposures.
While our board oversees our risk management, our management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. Our board of directors expects our management to consider risk and risk management in each business decision, to proactively develop and monitor risk management strategies and processes for day-to-day activities and to effectively implement risk management strategies adopted by the board of directors. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks we face.
Board Committees
Our board of directors has the authority to appoint committees to perform certain management and administration functions. Our board of directors has an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The composition and responsibilities of each committee are described below. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our board of directors.
Audit Committee
Our audit committee consists of Ms. Colleran and Messrs. Schutter and Lewin, with Ms. Colleran serving as the committee chair. Each member of our audit committee can read and understand fundamental financial statements in accordance with audit committee requirements. In arriving at this determination, our board of directors has examined each audit committee member’s scope of experience and the nature of their employment in the corporate finance sector. Our board of directors has determined that each of Ms. Colleran and Messrs. Schutter and Lewin is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the rules promulgated by the SEC and satisfies the financial sophistication requirements of Nasdaq. The audit committee is responsible for, among other things:
selecting and hiring our registered public accounting firm;
evaluating the performance and independence of our registered public accounting firm;
approving the audit and pre-approving any non-audit services to be performed by our registered public accounting firm;

reviewing and approving our Chief Executive Officer’s and other executive officers’ annual base salaries, incentive compensation plans, including the specific goals and amounts, equity compensation, employment agreements, severance arrangements and change in control agreements and any other benefits , compensation or arrangements;
administering our equity compensation plans; and
overseeing our overall compensation philosophy, compensation plans and benefits programs .
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Dr. Hung, Ms. Colleran and Dr. Weinstein, with Dr. Hung serving as the committee chair. The nominating and corporate governance committee will be responsible for, among other things:
evaluating and making recommendations regarding the composition, organization and governance of our board of directors and its committees;
evaluating and making recommendations regarding the creation of additional committees or the change in mandate or dissolution of committees;
reviewing and making recommendations with regard to our corporate governance guidelines and compliance with laws and regulations; and
reviewing and approving conflicts of interest of our directors and corporate officers, other than related person transactions reviewed by the audit committee.
We intend to post the charters of our audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees, and any amendments thereto that may be adopted from time to time, on our website at www.establishmentlabs.com. Information on or that can be accessed through our website is not part of this prospectus. Our board of directors may from time to time establish other committees.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None of the members of our compensation committee has ever been an officer or employee of us. None of our executive officers serve, or have served during the last fiscal year, as a member of a board of directors, compensation committee or other board committee performing equivalent functions of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our board directors or on our compensation committee.
A member of our board of directors and our compensation committee, Mr. Lewin, is affiliated with CPH TU, LP, which is a holder of more than 5% of our outstanding equity. CPH TU, LP purchased 1,646,714 shares of our ordinary shares for a total purchase price of $8,160,000 in August 2015 and, pursuant to a note and warrant purchase agreement, has been issued convertible promissory notes with an aggregate principal amount of $24.2 million as of August 24, 2017, including interest accrued on the convertible promissory notes since their issuance. Pursuant to an amendment to the note and warrant purchase agreement in September 2016, warrants that had been issued pursuant to the note and warrant purchase agreement were terminated. CPH had the option, at any time prior to the maturity date of September 1, 2017, to convert the convertible promissory notes held by CPH into our Class B common shares at a conversion price of $3.99 per share with respect to principal and $4.9143 per share with respect to accrued and unpaid interest. On August 24, 2017, CPH elected to convert the principal and the accrued interest outstanding into 5,869,417 shares of our Class B ordinary shares.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and other executive and senior financial officers. Upon the completion of this offering, the full text of our code of business conduct and ethics will be available on the investor relations section of our website at www.establishmentlabs.com. We intend to post any future amendment to our code of business conduct and ethics, and any waivers of such code for directors and executive officers, on the same website. Information on or that can be accessed through our website is not part of this prospectus.

Employee Benefit and Share Plans
2018 Equity Incentive Plan
Our board of directors adopted our 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, or our 2018 Plan, in              2018, and our shareholders approved the 2018 Plan, in              2018. The 2018 Plan will be effective on the business day immediately prior to the date of effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Our 2018 Plan will provide for the grant of incentive share options, within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, to our employees and any parent and subsidiary corporations’ employees, and for the grant of nonqualified share options, restricted shares, restricted share units, share appreciation rights, performance units and performance shares to our employees, directors and consultants and our parent and subsidiary corporations’ employees and consultants.
Authorized Shares. A total of                   common shares will be reserved for issuance pursuant to our 2018 Plan. In addition, the shares to be reserved for issuance under our 2018 Plan shall be increased by a number of shares equal to the number of Class A ordinary shares subject to awards granted under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, referred to as our 2015 Plan, that, after the date of effectiveness described above, expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full and a number of shares equal to the number of Class A ordinary shares issued pursuant to awards granted under our 2015 Plan that, after the date of effectiveness described above, are forfeited to or repurchased by us (provided that the maximum number of shares that may be added to our 2018 Plan pursuant to this sentence is                       shares). The number of shares available for issuance under our 2018 Plan will also include an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in fiscal 2019, equal to the least of:
                    shares;
                % of the outstanding common shares as of the last day of the immediately preceding year; or
such other amount as our board of directors may determine.
Shares issued pursuant to awards under our 2018 Plan that we repurchase or that are forfeited due to the failure to vest, shares subject to awards under our 2018 Plan that expire or become unexercisable without having been exercised in full or are surrendered under an exchange program, and shares used to pay the exercise price of an award or to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to an award, will become available for future grant under our 2018 Plan. In addition, to the extent that an award is paid out in cash rather than shares, such cash payment will not reduce the number of shares available for issuance under our 2018 Plan.
Plan Administration. Our board of directors or one or more committees appointed by our board of directors will administer our 2018 Plan. In the case of awards intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, such committee will consist of two or more “outside directors” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. In addition, to the extent we determine it is desirable to do so, we will structure transactions under our 2018 Plan to satisfy the requirements for exemption under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.
Subject to the provisions of our 2018 Plan, the administrator will have the power to administer the plan, including but not limited to, the power to interpret the terms of the 2018 Plan and awards granted thereunder; to create, amend and revoke

104

Table of Contents

rules relating to our 2018 Plan, including creating sub-plans; and to determine the terms of the awards, including the exercise price, the number of common shares subject to each such award, the exercisability of the awards, and the form of consideration, if any, payable upon exercise. The administrator will also have the authority to amend existing awards to reduce or increase their exercise price, to allow participants the opportunity to transfer outstanding awards to a financial institution or other person or entity selected by the administrator, and to institute an exchange program by which (i) outstanding awards may be surrendered or canceled in exchange for awards of the same type (which may have a higher or lower exercise price or different terms), awards of a different type and/or cash; (ii) participants may transfer outstanding awards to a financial institution or other person or entity selected by the administrator; and/or (iii) the exercise price of an outstanding award is increased or reduced.
Share Options. Share options may be granted under our 2018 Plan. The exercise price of share options granted under our 2018 Plan generally must be at least equal to the fair market value of our common shares on the date of grant. The term of an incentive share option may not exceed 10 years, except that with respect to any participant who owns more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of our outstanding shares, the term must not exceed five years and the exercise price must equal at least 110% of the fair market value on the grant date. The administrator will determine the methods of payment of the exercise price of an option. After the termination of service of an employee, director or consultant, he or she may exercise his or her option for the period of time stated in his or her award agreement. If his or her award agreement does not specify such a period, the option will remain exercisable for (i) twelve months following a termination due to death or disability or (ii) three months following any other termination of service. However, in no event may an option be exercised after the expiration of its term, except in certain circumstances where the exercise period is extended due to the exercise of the option being prevented by applicable laws.
Restricted Shares. Restricted shares may be granted under our 2018 Plan. Restricted share awards are grants of common shares that vest in accordance with terms and conditions established by the administrator. The administrator will determine the number of restricted shares granted to any employee, director or consultant and, subject to the provisions of our 2018 Plan, will determine the terms and conditions of such awards. The administrator may impose whatever conditions to vesting it determines to be appropriate. For example, the administrator may set restrictions based on the achievement of specific performance goals or continued service to us. The administrator, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the time at which any restrictions will lapse or be removed. Recipients of restricted share awards generally will have voting and dividend rights with respect to such shares upon grant without regard to vesting, unless the administrator provides otherwise. Restricted shares that do not vest are subject to our right of repurchase or forfeiture.
Restricted Share Units. Restricted share units may be granted under our 2018 Plan. Restricted share units are bookkeeping entries representing an amount equal to the fair market value of one of our common shares. Subject to the provisions of our 2018 Plan, the administrator will determine the terms and conditions of restricted share units, including the vesting criteria, which may include accomplishing specified performance criteria or continued service to us, and the form and timing of payment. The administrator will have the discretion to reduce or waive any vesting criteria.
Share Appreciation Rights. Share appreciation rights may be granted under our 2018 Plan. Share appreciation rights allow the recipient to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of our common shares between the exercise date and the date of grant. Subject to the provisions of our 2018 Plan, the administrator determines the terms of share appreciation rights, including when such rights become exercisable and whether to pay any increased appreciation in cash, common shares, or a combination of both. The per share exercise price of a share appreciation right will be no less than 100% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant, and share appreciation rights may not have a term exceeding ten years. After the termination of service of an employee, director or consultant, he or she may exercise his or her share appreciation right for the period of time stated in his or her award agreement. If his or her award agreement does not specify such a period, the share appreciation right will remain exercisable for (i) twelve months following a termination due to death or disability or (ii) three months following any other termination of service. However, in no event may a share appreciation right be exercised after the expiration of its term, except in certain circumstances where the exercise period is extended due to the exercise of the share appreciation right being prevented by applicable laws.
Performance Units and Performance Shares. Performance units and performance shares may be granted under our 2018 Plan. Performance units and performance shares are awards that will result in a payment to a participant only if performance goals established by the administrator are achieved or the awards otherwise vest. Performance units shall have an initial dollar value established by the administrator prior to the grant date. Performance shares shall have an initial value equal to the fair market value of our common shares on the grant date. The administrator may set performance objectives based on company-wide, divisional, business unit or individual performance goals, or any other basis the administrator determines in its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number and/or the value of performance units and performance shares to be paid out to participants. After the grant of a performance unit or performance share, the administrator has the discretion to reduce or waive any

105

Table of Contents

performance criteria or other vesting provisions for such performance unit or performance share. The administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay earned performance units or performance shares in the form of cash, shares, or a combination of both.
Outside Directors. Our 2018 Plan will provide that all non-employee directors will be eligible to receive all types of awards, except for incentive share options, under our 2018 Plan. During any fiscal year, a non-employee director may not be granted (1) cash-settled awards with a grant date fair value (determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) of more than $              , increased to $                     in connection with his or her initial service, or (2) share-settled awards with a grant date fair value (determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) of more than $                     , increased to $                       in connection with his or her initial service.
Non-Transferability. Unless the administrator provides otherwise, our 2018 Plan generally will not allow for the transfer of awards and only the recipient of an award may exercise an award during his or her lifetime.
Certain Adjustments. In the event of certain changes in our capitalization, to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits available under our 2018 Plan, the administrator will adjust the number and class of shares that may be delivered under our 2018 Plan; the number, class, and price of shares covered by each outstanding award; and the numerical share limits set forth in our 2018 Plan.
Dissolution or Liquidation . In the event of our proposed liquidation or dissolution, the administrator will notify participants as soon as practicable, and all awards will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed transaction.
Merger or Change in Control. Our 2018 Plan will provide that in the event of a merger or change in control, as defined under our 2018 Plan, each outstanding award will be treated as the administrator determines. The administrator is not required to treat all awards or participants similarly in the transaction.
If a successor corporation or its parent or subsidiary does not assume or substitute an equivalent award for any outstanding award, then such award will fully vest, all restrictions on such award will lapse, all performance goals or other vesting criteria applicable to such award will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels, and such award will become fully exercisable, if applicable, for a specified period prior to the transaction. The award will then terminate upon the expiration of the specified period of time.
If an outside director’s awards are assumed and, on or following such assumption, his or her service as a director of ours or our successor for any reason other than a voluntary resignation that is not at the request of the acquirer, his or her options, restricted share units and share appreciation rights will vest fully and become immediately exercisable, all restrictions on his or her restricted shares will lapse, and all performance goals or other vesting requirements for his or her performance shares and units will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels, and all other terms and conditions met.
Amendment, Termination. The administrator will have the authority to amend, suspend or terminate our 2018 Plan, provided such action does not impair the existing rights of any participant. Our 2018 Plan will automatically terminate in 2028, unless we terminate it sooner.
2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan
Prior to the effectiveness of this offering, our board of directors intends to adopt our 2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan, or our ESPP. If approved by our shareholders, we expect our ESPP to be effective on the business day immediately prior to the date of effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Our ESPP includes a component that is intended to qualify as an “employee share purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, referred to as the 423 Component, and a component that permits us to make offerings that do not comply with Section 423, referred to as the Non-423 Component. For purposes of this disclosure, a reference to the “ESPP” will mean the 423 Component. Unless determined otherwise by the administrator, only our non-U.S. subsidiaries designated by the administrator as eligible to participate in the ESPP will participate in a separate offering.
Authorized Shares . A total of                            common shares will be available for sale under our ESPP. The number of common shares available for sale under our ESPP also will include an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in fiscal 2019, equal to the least of:
                    shares;
                % of the outstanding common shares as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; or

106

Table of Contents

such other amount as the administrator may determine.
Plan Administration . Our board of directors or a committee designated by our board of directors will administer the ESPP and have will have authority to administer the plan, such as full and exclusive authority to interpret the terms of our ESPP, delegate ministerial authority to any of our employees, designate separate offerings under the plan, designate subsidiaries and affiliates as participating in the 423 Component or the Non-423 Component, determine eligibility, adjudicate all disputed claims filed under our ESPP, and establish such procedures that it deems necessary for the administration of our ESPP (such as adopt procedures and sub-plans that are necessary or appropriate to permit the participation in our ESPP by employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States , the terms of which sub-plans may take precedence over other provisions of our ESPP except with respect to our ESPP’s share reserve limits).
Eligibility . Generally, all of our employees will be eligible to participate if they are employed by us, or any participating subsidiary, for at least 20 hours per week and more than five months in any calendar year. However, an employee may not be granted rights to purchase common shares under our ESPP if such employee:
immediately after the grant would own capital shares possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of our capital shares; or
holds rights to purchase common shares under all of our employee share purchase plans that accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 worth of common shares for each calendar year.
Offering Periods and Purchase Periods . Our ESPP will provide for overlapping              -month offering periods that are scheduled to start on the first trading day on or after              and                of each year and end on the first trading day on or after              and              of each year, except that (i) the first offering period will commence on the first trading day on or after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part and will end on the first trading day on or after              and (ii) the second offering period will commence on the first trading day on or after              . The administrator may change the duration of future offering periods if the change is announced prior to the beginning of the first affected offering period.
Each offering period will include purchase periods, which will commence on                   and              and end on              and                 ; provided, however, that the first exercise date under the ESPP will be the first trading day on or after                  .
Contributions . Our ESPP will permit participants to purchase common shares through payroll deductions of up to              % of their eligible compensation, which includes a participant’s base straight time gross earnings, commissions (to the extent such commissions are an integral, recurring part of compensation), payments for overtime but excludes of payments for incentive compensation, equity compensation and other similar compensation. The administrator may allow all employees participating in a separate offering to contribute amounts to our ESPP via cash, check or other means set forth in a participant’s subscription agreement prior to an exercise date in an offering period. If permitted by the administrator, a participant may decrease (but not increase) the rate of his or her contributions during an offering period.
Exercise of Purchase Right . Amounts deducted and accumulated by the participant will be used to purchase common shares at the end of each purchase period. A participant may purchase a maximum of                 common shares during a purchase period. The purchase price per share will be 85% of the lower of (i) the fair market value of a common share on the first trading day of the offering period or (ii) the fair market value of a common share on the exercise date of the purchase period. If the fair market value of our common shares on the exercise date of an offering period is less than the fair market value on the first trading day of that offering period, participants will be withdrawn from the current offering period following their purchase of shares of our common shares on the purchase date and will be automatically re-enrolled in a new offering period.
Non-Transferability . A participant may not transfer rights granted under our ESPP other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as otherwise provided under our ESPP.
Withdrawal . Participants may end their participation at any time during an offering period and will be paid their accrued contributions that have not yet been used to purchase shares of our common shares. Participation ends automatically upon termination of employment with us.
Certain Adjustments . In the event of certain changes in our capitalization as set forth in our ESPP, to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits available under our ESPP, the administrator will adjust the number and class of shares that may be delivered under our ESPP and/or the number, price of shares covered by each outstanding award, and the numerical share limits set forth in our ESPP.

107

Table of Contents

Dissolution or Liquidation . In the event of our proposed liquidation or dissolution, the offering period then in progress will be shortened, and a new exercise date occurring before the date of the proposed dissolution or liquidation, unless otherwise provided by the administrator. The administrator will notify each participant that the exercise date has been changed and that the participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the new exercise date unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the offering period.
Merger or Change in Control . Our ESPP provides that in the event of a merger or change in control, as defined under our ESPP, a successor corporation may assume or substitute each outstanding purchase right. If the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the outstanding purchase right, the offering period then in progress will be shortened, and a new exercise date will be set. The administrator will notify each participant that the exercise date has been changed and that the participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the new exercise date unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the offering period.
Amendment; Termination . The administrator has the authority to amend, suspend or terminate our ESPP, except that, subject to certain exceptions described in our ESPP, no such action may adversely affect any outstanding rights to purchase common shares under our ESPP. Our ESPP will automatically terminate in 2038, unless we terminate it sooner.
2015 Equity Incentive Plan
In 2015, our board of directors adopted, and our shareholders approved, our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, referred to as our 2015 Plan.
Authorized Shares. Our 2015 Plan will be terminated in connection with this offering and, accordingly, no shares will be available for issuance under our 2015 Plan after that time. Our 2015 Plan will continue to govern outstanding awards granted thereunder. A total of 2,650,000 Class A ordinary shares were reserved for issuance under our 2015 Plan. Our 2015 Plan provided for the grant of incentive share options, nonqualified share options, equity appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, performance awards, and other share-based awards. As of         2018 , options to purchase              Class A ordinary shares remained outstanding, and              Class A ordinary shares subject to outstanding restricted share units.
Plan Administration. Our board of directors or a committee appointed by the board of directors administers our 2015 Plan. Subject to the provisions of our 2015 Plan, the administrator is authorized to establish rules and regulations as it deems necessary or appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan and to make such determinations and interpretations and to take such action it deems necessary or advisable. The administrator may also implement an exchange program by which (i) outstanding awards may be surrendered or cancelled in exchange for awards of the same type (which may have a higher or lower exercise price or different terms), awards of a different type and/or cash; (ii) participants may transfer outstanding awards to a financial institution or other person or entity selected by the administrator; and/or (iii) the exercise price of an outstanding award is increased or reduced. All determinations and interpretations made by the administrator will be binding and conclusive on all participants and their legal representatives.
Share Options. The exercise price per share of all share options equals at least 100% of the fair market value per share of our Class A ordinary shares on the date of grant. The term of an option could not exceed 10 years. An incentive share option held by a participant who owned more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of ours, or any parent or subsidiary corporations of ours, could not have a term in excess of five years and must have an exercise price of at least 110% of the fair market value per share of our Class A ordinary shares on the date of grant. After the termination of a participant’s service, the participant may exercise his or her vested option for the period stated in his or her award agreement. The 2015 Plan requires that such period be no less than 30 days following a termination other than for cause (as defined in our 2015 Plan), death or disability or six months following a termination for death or disability. However, in no event may an option be exercised later than the expiration of its term. If a participant’s service is terminated for cause or the administrator determines that a participant, before or after termination, engaged in conduct that constitutes cause, then the option will be forfeited immediately.
Equity Appreciation Rights. Equity appreciation rights allowed the recipient to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of our Class A ordinary shares between the exercise date and the date of grant. The administrator determined the number of equity appreciation rights granted to any participant and the terms and conditions of such awards. The term of an equity appreciation right could not exceed ten years. After termination of service, the participant may exercise his or her vested equity appreciation right for the period stated in his or her award agreement. The 2015 Plan requires that such period be no less than 30 days following a termination other than for cause, death or disability or six months following a termination for death or disability. However, in no event may an equity appreciation right be exercised after the expiration of its term. Subject to the provisions of our 2015 Plan, the administrator determined the other terms of

108

Table of Contents

equity appreciation rights, including when such rights become payable, whether to pay any increased appreciation in cash or with Class A ordinary shares, or a combination thereof, and the applicable strike price for purposes of measuring appreciation.
Restricted Shares. The administrator determined the number of restricted shares granted to any participant and the terms and conditions of such awards. The administrator could impose whatever terms and conditions on restricted shares that it deemed appropriate, including restrictions on the sale or other disposition and restrictions requiring the forfeiture of shares upon termination of a participant’s service with us or our subsidiaries or affiliates before satisfying the vesting period determined by the administrator. The administrator determined whether a participant was entitled to receive dividends or vote with respect to restricted shares.
Restricted Share Units. Restricted share units are bookkeeping entries entitling a participant to receive Class A ordinary shares or cash after satisfying the period of service determined by the administrator. The administrator determined the number of Class A ordinary shares covered by each award of restricted share units. Subject to the provisions of our 2015 Plan, the administrator could impose other restrictions it deemed advisable or appropriate, including restrictions requiring the forfeiture of restricted share units upon termination of a participant’s service with us or our subsidiaries or affiliates before satisfying the specified period of service.
Other Share-Based Awards . Other share-based awards consisted of other types of equity-based or equity-related awards not otherwise in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions, as the administrator determined. Such awards may have involved the transfer of actual Class A ordinary shares, or payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value of Class A ordinary shares.
Performance Awards. Performance awards are awards that result in a payment to a participant depending on the extent to which performance goals set by the administrator are met. Performance awards could be granted in the form determined by the administrator, including cash, share options, restricted shares, restricted share units, or other share-based awards. The administrator determined the performance goals, which can be based upon company-wide, affiliate, divisional, project team, and/or individual performance. The administrator determined the number, amount and timing of performance awards, and whether performance awards would be paid in Class A ordinary shares or cash. The administrator and/or board of directors generally have the authority to make any adjustments to performance goals for a performance award it deems necessary or desirable.
Non- Transferability. Generally, our 2015 Plan does not allow for the transfer of awards and only the recipient of an award may exercise such award during his or her lifetime.
Repurchase of Shares. Upon termination of a participant’s employment or service, we generally will have the right to repurchase all or any of the Class A ordinary shares the participant received through awards under the 2015 Plan. The repurchase price will be the then-current fair market value of the shares, unless the participant is terminated for cause, in which case the repurchase will be the lesser of the fair market value of the shares as of the date of the participant’s termination or the exercise or purchase price of the shares.
Certain Adjustments. In the event of certain changes in our capitalization, the number, class, and price of shares covered by each outstanding award will be appropriately adjusted.
Change of Control. Our 2015 Plan provides that in the event of a change of control, as defined in our 2015 Plan, each outstanding award will be treated as determined by our board of directors or the administrator.
Amendment; Termination. Our board of directors may amend our 2015 Plan at any time. As noted above, in connection with this offering, our 2015 Plan will be terminated and no further awards will be granted thereunder. All outstanding awards under our 2015 Plan will continue to be governed by their existing terms.
Executive Incentive Compensation Plan
In December 2016, our Board adopted an Executive Incentive Compensation Plan, which we refer to as our Bonus Plan. Our Bonus Plan will allow its administrator to provide cash incentive awards to selected employees, including our NEOs, based upon performance goals established by the administrator. Pursuant to the Bonus Plan, the administrator, in its sole discretion, will establish a target award for each participant and a bonus pool, with actual awards payable from such bonus pool, with respect to the applicable performance period.
Under the Bonus Plan, the administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine the performance goals  applicable to awards, which goals may include, without limitation, attainment of research and development milestones, bookings, business divestitures and acquisitions, cash flow, cash position, contract awards or backlog, customer renewals,

109

Table of Contents

customer retention rates from an acquired company, subsidiary, business unit or division, earnings (which may include earnings before interest and taxes, earnings before taxes, and net taxes), earnings per share, expenses, gross margin, growth in shareholder value relative to the moving average of the S&P 500 Index or another index, installs, internal rate of return, market share, net income, net profit, net sales, new product development, new product invention or innovation, number of customers, operating cash flow, operating expenses, operating income, operating margin, overhead or other expense reduction, product defect measures, product release timelines, productivity, profit, retained earnings, return on assets, return on capital, return on equity, return on investment, return on sales, revenue, revenue growth, sales results, sales growth, share price, time to market, total shareholder return, working capital, unadjusted or adjusted actual contract value, unadjusted or adjusted total contractual value, and individual objectives such as peer reviews or other subjective or objective criteria. As determined by the administrator, performance goals that include our financial results may be determined in accordance with GAAP, or such financial results may consist of non-GAAP financial measures and any actual results may be adjusted by the administrator for one-time items or unbudgeted or unexpected items and/or payments when determining whether the performance goals have been met. The goals may be on the basis of any factors the administrator determines relevant, and may be on an individual, divisional, business unit, segment, or company-wide basis. The performance goals may differ from participant to participant and from award to award.
The administrator may, in its sole discretion and at any time, increase, reduce or eliminate a participant’s actual award, or increase, reduce or eliminate the amount allocated to the bonus pool for a particular performance period. The actual award may be below, at or above a participant’s target award, in the administrator’s discretion. The administrator may determine the amount of any reduction on the basis of such factors as it deems relevant, and it is not required to establish any allocation or weighting with respect to the factors it considers.
Actual awards are paid in cash in a single lump sum as soon as practicable after the end of the performance period during which they are earned and after they are approved by the administrator, but in no event later than the later of March 15 of the following calendar year or the 15th day of the third month of the following fiscal year. Unless otherwise determined by the administrator, to earn an actual award, a participant must be employed by us (or an affiliate of ours) through the date the award is paid.
Our board of directors or the administrator, in their sole discretion, may alter, suspend, or terminate the Bonus Plan, provided such action does not, without the consent of the participant, alter or impair the rights or obligations under any award already earned by such participant.
Employee Benefit Plans
Our NEOs are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, vision, group life, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans, in each case, on the same basis as all of our other employees. We maintain a 401(k) plan for the benefit of our eligible employees, including our NEOs, as discussed in the section below titled “Employee Benefit Plans-401(k) Plan.”
401(k) Plan
We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan, or our 401(k) plan, that provides eligible employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Participants are able to defer up their eligible compensation subject to applicable annual Internal Revenue Service limits. All participants’ interests in their deferrals are 100% vested when contributed. Our 401(k) plan permits us to make matching contributions and discretionary contributions to eligible participants.
Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Matters
The BVI Act and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide for the indemnification of our directors against all losses or liabilities incurred or sustained by him or her as a director of our company in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal provided that this indemnity only applies if he or she acted honestly and in good faith with a view to our best interests and, with respect to any criminal action, he or she must have had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
In addition to the indemnification required in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, we plan to enter into indemnification agreements with each of our current directors and officers before the completion of this offering. These agreements will provide indemnification for certain expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with any action, suit, proceeding, or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, or hearing, inquiry, or investigation that may lead to the foregoing, to which they are a party, or are threatened to be made a party, by reason of the fact that they are or were a director, officer, employee, agent, or fiduciary of our company, or any of our subsidiaries, by reason of any action or inaction by them while serving as an officer, director, agent, or fiduciary, or by reason of the fact that they were serving at our request as a director, officer, employee, agent, or fiduciary of another entity. In the case of an action or

110

Table of Contents

proceeding by, or in the right of, our company or any of our subsidiaries, no indemnification will be provided for any claim where a court determines that the indemnified party is prohibited from receiving indemnification. We believe that these article provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. We also maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our shareholders. A shareholder’s investment may be harmed to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions. Insofar as we may provide indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act to our directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. There is no pending litigation or proceeding naming any of our directors or officers as to which indemnification is being sought, nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any director or officer.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Other than compensation arrangements, we describe below transactions and series of similar transactions, since January 1, 2015, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:
the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and
any of our directors, executive officers, or holders of more than 5% of our equity, or any member of the immediate family of the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Related Party Convertible Notes
Convertible Promissory Notes with CPH TU, LP
In August 2015, we issued $15.0 million in convertible promissory notes, or the CPH Notes, to CPH TU, LP, or CPH, pursuant to a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, or the Purchase Agreement. In January 2016, we amended the CPH Notes to increase the aggregate borrowing limit to $18.0 million, and, in July 2016, we further amended the CPH Notes to increase the aggregate borrowing limit to $19.8 million. The notes are collateralized by substantially all of our assets and bear interest at a simple rate of 10% per annum with a maturity date of September 1, 2017. Pursuant to the amendment to the Purchase Agreement entered into in September 2016, principal and accrued interest under the CPH Notes became convertible into our ordinary shares at the option of CPH at any time based on a price of $3.99 and $4.9143 per share, respectively. In addition, warrants to purchase ordinary shares were originally issued alongside the CPH Notes under the Purchase Agreement but were subsequently canceled. In addition, the amendment provided for the conversion of all interest due under the CPH Notes into a separate note. On August 24, 2017, CPH elected to convert the principal and the accrued interest outstanding under the CPH Notes into 5,869,417 shares of our Class B ordinary shares. CPH is a holder of more than 5% of our outstanding equity, and Nicholas Lewin is a managing partner of CPH and is the chairman of our board of directors.
Promissory Notes Held by Former Class Z Preferred Shareholders
In August 2015, we entered into agreements with all of the Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shareholders to exchange their outstanding shares and accumulated dividends for notes payable with a principal balance of $4.2 million . Per the original agreement, the notes bear interest at a simple rate of 7% per annum with the interest payments due annually starting March 30, 2017 and a note maturity date of March 31, 2020. Annual payments are due based on achievement of certain annual sales milestones beginning in March 2017. In March, 2017, we modified the agreement to defer the interest payments for an additional period, which will be thirty days after we successfully complete our planned IPO. Approximately $5.0 million of the net proceeds from this offering will be used to repay these amounts.

In exchange for these services, Dr. Chacon Quiros was granted options to purchase 22,068 shares, vesting over four years in equal annual installments, provided that he continues to provide these services at such times. In September 2016, we entered into a separate agreement whereby Dr. Chacon Quiros will maintain his clinic in Costa Rica as a MotivaImagine Excellence Center and will host and train physicians in the use of our products in relevant procedures, among other services, in exchange for cash reimbursement of up to $4,500 per day that such services are rendered.

Motiva Implants France Acquisition
In September 2016, we acquired all of the outstanding and issued shares of Motiva Implants France, a French private company in exchange for $0.1 million in cash and the assumption of all assets and liabilities. The distribution company was previously owned by Olivier Tourniare, our Vice President of Sales, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and one of our current shareholders.
Motiva Netherlands BV
During the year ended December 31, 2017, we recorded revenue of $0.3 million for product sales to Motiva Netherlands BV, a distribution company owned by Erick Vogelanzeng, our Vice President of Sales, Europe . Accounts payable due to this distribution company amounted to zero as of December 31, 2017.
Share Repurchases
In September 2016, we entered into a share repurchase agreement with Global Silicone SRL for the repurchase of 813,140 Class A ordinary shares owned by Global Silicone SRL in exchange for $3.7 million. In October 2016, we paid $2.0 million to Global Silicone to repurchase 440,040 Class A ordinary shares, and the remaining $1.7 million was paid in April 2017. In July 2017, we paid $2.8 million to repurchase an additional 406,570 Class A ordinary shares from Global Silicone SRL. Global Silicone SRL is a holder of more than 5% of our equity as of December 31, 2017. Olivier Francois Tourniaire, Sr., the father of one of our vice presidents of sales, exercises the voting and dispositive power over the shares owned by Global Silicone SRL.
Dividends
Holders of our ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds. In accordance with our amended and restatedmemorandum and articles of association, upon the declaration and payment of consideration on Class Z preferred shares, certain holders of 2,173,663 ordinary shares had a preferential right to the same amount of consideration. In August 2015 in connection with the repurchase of Class Z preferred shares in exchange for a note payable, we accrued $0.6 million for consideration due to these certain ordinary shareholders in accordance with the right in effect at the time. We recorded this as an accrued liability in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2015 the earned dividends had not been paid out to shareholders and was recorded as a accrued dividend payable on the consolidated balance sheet. In October 2016, we amended our memorandum and articles of association to remove the preferential rights of certain ordinary shareholders to receive distributions on their ordinary shares in advance of the preferred shares. As a result of the amendment to the memorandum and articles of association, we have de-recognized the accrued dividend payable on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016. Because the transaction was between related parties, we recorded the reversal as a capital transaction through additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated balance sheet. We intend to seek a waiver of these rights from such shareholders, who are comprised of related parties CPH TU, LP, Sariel LLC, Global Silicone SRL, Florence Capital Advisors SPV, I LLC, and Madryn Health Partners LP, each of which are holders of 5% or more of our equity as of December 31, 2017. Nicholas Lewin, a member of our board of directors, is a managing partner at CPH with voting and dispositive power over the common shares owned by CPH. Olivier Tourniaire, Sr., the father of one of our vice presidents of sales, exercises the voting and dispositive power over the shares owned by Global Silicone SRL. Mr. Chacon Quiros, our Chief Executive Officer, is a shareholder of Sariel LLC and has voting and dispositive power over the common shares owned by Sariel LLC.
Indemnification Agreements
We have entered, and intend to continue to enter, into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. These agreements, among other things, require us to indemnify our directors and executive officers for certain expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of our directors or executive officers or as a director or executive officer of any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request. For more information regarding these indemnification arrangements, see the section titled “Management - Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Matters.” We believe that these provisions in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if

114

Table of Contents

successful, might benefit us and our shareholders. A shareholder’s investment may decline in value to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
Employee Agreements
We have entered into employment agreements or offer letters and other arrangements containing compensation, termination and change of control provisions, among others, with certain of our executive officers as described in the section titled “Executive Compensation-Service Agreements” above.
Change in Control Arrangements
We have entered into change in control severance benefits arrangements with certain of our executive officers, as described in greater detail in the section titled “Executive Compensation-Named Executive Officer Employment Agreements.”
Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions
Effective upon the completion of this offering, we will have a formal written policy providing that our executive officers, directors, nominees for election as directors, beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of our common shares and any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, is not permitted to enter into a related-party transaction with us without the consent of our audit committee, subject to the exceptions described below.
In approving or rejecting any such proposal, our audit committee is to consider the relevant facts and circumstances available and deemed relevant to our audit committee, including, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances, and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction. Our audit committee has determined that certain transactions will not require audit committee approval, including certain employment arrangements of executive officers, director compensation, transactions with another company at which a related party’s only relationship is as a non-executive employee, director or beneficial owner of less than 10% of that company’s shares and the aggregate amount involved does not exceed $120,000 in any fiscal year, transactions where a related party’s interest arises solely from the ownership of our common shares, and all holders of our common shares received the same benefit on a pro rata basis and transactions available to all employees generally.
It is our intention to ensure that all future transactions between us and our officers, directors and principal shareholders and their affiliates, are approved by the audit committee of our board of directors and are on terms no less favorable to us than those that we could obtain from unaffiliated third parties.

Applicable percentage ownership is based on 15,726,479 common shares outstanding at June 5, 2018 .

We are incorporated as a British Virgin Islands company, and our affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the laws of the British Virgin Islands.
The following description summarizes the most important terms of our share capital, as they are expected to be in effect upon the closing of this offering. We will adopt amended and restated memorandum and articles of association in connection with this offering, and this description summarizes the provisions that are included therein. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a complete description of the matters set forth in “Description of Share Capital,” you should refer to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, which are included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Immediately prior to the completion of this offering, all of our outstanding ordinary shares will convert into common shares based on the consent of each holder of our outstanding ordinary shares, which we have obtained. Our common shares will have the rights and restrictions described below.
Key Provisions of our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and British Virgin Islands Law Affecting our Common Shares
The following are summaries of material terms and provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the BVI Business Companies Act, or the BVI Act, insofar as they relate to the material terms of our common shares. Unless otherwise stated, the following summaries are of the terms of our share capital upon closing of this offering. This summary is not intended to be complete, and you should read the forms of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, which will be filed as an exhibit to our registration statement on Form S-1.
Meetings of Shareholders
If our shareholders want us to hold a meeting of our shareholders, they may requisition the directors to hold one upon the written request of shareholders entitled to exercise at least 30% of the voting rights in respect of the matter for which the meeting is requested. Under British Virgin Islands law, we may not increase the required percentage to call a meeting above 30%.
Subject to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, a meeting of our shareholders will be called by not less than seven days’ notice in writing. Notice of every meeting of shareholders will be given to all of our shareholders. However, the inadvertent failure of the convener or conveners of a meeting of shareholders to give notice of the meeting to a shareholder, or the fact that a shareholder has not received the properly given notice, does not invalidate the meeting.
A meeting may be called by shorter notice than that mentioned above, but, subject to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, it will be deemed to have been duly called if shareholders holding at least 90% of the total voting rights on all the matters to be considered at the meeting have waived notice of the meeting and, for this purpose, the presence of a shareholder at the meeting shall constitute a waiver in relation to all the shares which that shareholder holds.
A meeting of shareholders is duly constituted if, at the commencement of the meeting, there are present in person or by proxy not less than 50% of the votes of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting. A quorum may be comprised of a single shareholder or proxy and then such person may pass a Resolution of Shareholders and a certificate signed by such person accompanied where such person is a proxy by a copy of the proxy instrument shall constitute a valid Resolution of Shareholders.
Voting Rights
Under the BVI Act, the common shares are deemed to be issued when the name of the shareholder is entered in our register of members. Our register of members will be maintained by our transfer agent,                                        , which will enter the name of our shareholders in our register of members on the closing of the offering. If (a) information that is required to be entered in the register of shareholders is omitted from the register or is inaccurately entered in the register, or (b) there is unreasonable delay in entering information in the register, a shareholder of ours, or any person who is aggrieved by the omission, inaccuracy or delay, may apply to the British Virgin Islands courts for an order that the register be rectified, and the court may either refuse the application or order the rectification of the register, and may direct us to pay all costs of the application and any damages the applicant may have sustained.

Table of Contents

Subject to any rights or restrictions attached to any shares, at any general meeting on a show of hands every shareholder of record who is present in person (or, in the case of a shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorized representative) or by proxy shall have one vote and on a poll every shareholder present in person (or, in the case of a shareholder being a corporation, by its duly appointed representative) or by proxy shall have one vote for each share which such shareholder is the holder. Voting at any meeting of the shareholders is by show of hands unless a poll is demanded. A poll may be demanded by shareholders present in person or by proxy if the shareholder disputes the outcome of the vote on a proposed resolution and the chairman shall cause a poll to be taken.
No shareholder shall be entitled to vote or be reckoned in a quorum, in respect of any share, unless such shareholder is registered as our shareholder at the applicable record date for that meeting. Shareholders of record may also pass written resolutions without a meeting.
There is nothing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands which specifically prohibits or restricts the creation of cumulative voting rights for the election of our directors, but cumulative voting for the election of directors is permitted only if expressly provided for in the memorandum or articles of association. We have not made provisions in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association for cumulative voting for such elections.
Protection of Minority Shareholders
Under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, there is little statutory law for the protection of minority shareholders other than the provisions of the BVI Act dealing with shareholder remedies. One protection under statutory law is that shareholders may bring an action to enforce the BVI Act or our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. Shareholders are entitled to have our affairs conducted in accordance with the BVI Act and the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
There are common law rights for the protection of shareholders that may be invoked, largely dependent on English common law, since the common law of the British Virgin Islands is limited. Under the general rule pursuant to English common law known as the rule in Foss v. Harbottle, a court will generally refuse to interfere with the management of a company at the insistence of a minority of its shareholders who express dissatisfaction with the conduct of our affairs by the majority or the board of directors. However, every shareholder is entitled to have our affairs conducted properly according to British Virgin Islands law and our constituent documents. As such, if those who control the company have disregarded the requirements of applicable law or the provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, then the courts may grant relief. Generally, the areas in which the courts will intervene are the following: (1) an act complained of which is illegal; (2) acts that constitute oppression, unfair discrimination or unfair prejudice against the minority; (3) acts that infringe or are about to infringe on the personal rights of the shareholders, such as the right to vote; and (4) where we have not complied with provisions requiring approval of a special or extraordinary majority of shareholders, which are more limited than the rights afforded minority shareholders under the laws of many states in the United States .
Preemption Rights
British Virgin Islands law does not make a distinction between public and private companies and some of the protections and safeguards (such as statutory preemption rights, save to the extent that they are expressly provided for in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association) that investors may expect to find in relation to a public company are not provided for under British Virgin Islands law. There are no preemption rights applicable to the issuance of new shares under either British Virgin Islands law or our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
Liquidation Rights
As permitted by British Virgin Islands law and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, we may be voluntarily liquidated under Part XII of the BVI Act by resolution of directors and resolution of shareholders if our assets are greater than our liabilities and we are able to pay our debts as they fall due.
Modification of Rights
As permitted by British Virgin Islands law, and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, if our shares are divided into more than one class of shares, we may vary the rights attached to any class only with the consent in writing of or by a resolution passed at a meeting by the holders of not less than 50% of the issued shares of that class.
Transfer of Shares
Subject to any applicable restrictions set forth in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, any of our shareholders may transfer all or any of his or her shares by a written instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or in any other form which our directors may approve.

119

Table of Contents

Our board of directors may, in its absolute discretion, resolve to refuse or delay the registration of any transfer of any share without assigning any reasons therefor. If our directors refuse or delay the registration of a transfer they shall, as soon as practicable, send to each of the transferor and the transferee notice of such refusal or delay in the agreed form.
Share Repurchase
As permitted by the BVI Act and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, shares may be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired by us.
Registration Rights
Shareholder Registration Rights
We are party to an investor rights agreement which provides that certain holders have certain registration rights with respect to their ownership of ordinary shares and ordinary shares currently subject to outstanding warrants and options, with such rights as set forth below. The registration of common shares pursuant to the exercise of registration rights described below would enable the holders to sell these shares without restriction under the Securities Act, when the applicable registration statement is declared effective. We will pay the registration expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, of the shares registered pursuant to the demand, piggyback and Form S-3 registrations described below.
Warrantholder Registration Rights
In connection with the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement we entered with CPH , we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 145,000 ordinary shares. To the extent these warrants are outstanding at the time we complete an initial public offering, such warrants provide the holders with certain registration rights with respect to their ownership of the warrants.
Generally, in an underwritten offering, the managing underwriter, if any, has the right, subject to specified conditions, to limit, or exclude entirely, the number of shares such holders may include. The demand, piggyback and Form S-3 registration rights described below terminate upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the date that is five years after the closing of this offering; (ii) with respect to each shareholder, at such time as all such shares can be sold in a three-month period without registration in compliance with Rule 144; (iii) with respect to each shareholder, the date that the shareholder no longer holds any shares that carry these registration rights; (iv) following termination of the investor rights agreement; or (v) the closing of a Deemed Liquidation Event, as such term is defined in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
Demand Registration Rights
As of June 5, 2018 , the holders of an aggregate of 14,158,113 common shares, issuable upon the conversion of outstanding ordinary shares and ordinary shares currently subject to outstanding warrants and options, will be entitled to certain demand registration rights. At any time beginning six months after the closing of our initial public offering, the holders of a majority of these shares may, on not more than one occasion, request that we file a registration statement having an aggregate offering price to the public of not less than $5,000,000 to register all or a portion of their shares.
Piggyback Registration Rights
As of June 5, 2018 , the holders of an aggregate of 14,158,113 common shares, issuable upon the conversion of outstanding ordinary shares and ordinary shares currently subject to outstanding warrants and options, were entitled to, and the necessary percentage of holders waived, their rights to include their shares of registrable securities in this offering. In the event that we propose to register any of our securities under the Securities Act, either for our own account or for the account of other security holders, the holders of these shares will be entitled to certain “piggyback” registration rights allowing them to include their shares in such registration, subject to certain marketing and other limitations. As a result, whenever we propose to file a registration statement under the Securities Act, including a registration statement on Form S-3 as discussed below, other than with respect to a demand registration or a registration statement on Forms S-4 or S-8, the holders of these shares are entitled to notice of the registration and have the right, subject to limitations that the underwriters may impose on the number of shares included in the registration, to include their shares in the registration. However, in no event shall the amount of securities of the selling shareholders included in the offering be reduced below twenty percent of the total amount of securities included in such offering, unless the offering is the initial public offering of our securities, in which case all shares may be excluded entirely.
Form S-3 Registration Rights
As of June 5, 2018 , the holders of an aggregate of 14,158,113 common shares, issuable upon the conversion of outstanding ordinary shares and ordinary shares currently subject to certain outstanding warrants and options, will be entitled to certain Form S-3 registration rights, provided that we have not already effected two such registrations within

120

Table of Contents

the twelve-month period preceding the date of such request. Such holders may make a request that we register their shares on Form S-3 if we are qualified to file a registration statement on Form S-3. Such request for registration on Form S-3 must cover securities the aggregate offering price of which is at least $3,000,000.
Dividends
Subject to the BVI Act and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, our directors may, by resolution, authorize a distribution to shareholders at such time and of such an amount as they think fit, if they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after the distribution, we will satisfy the ‘solvency test’. A company will satisfy the solvency test if (i) the value of our assets exceeds our liabilities; and (ii) we are able to pay our debts as they fall due. Where a distribution is made to a shareholder at a time when we did not, immediately after the distribution, satisfy the solvency test, it may be recovered by the company from the shareholder unless (i) the shareholder received the distribution in good faith and without knowledge of our failure to satisfy the solvency test; (ii) the shareholder has altered his position in reliance on the validity of the distribution; and (iii) it would be unfair to require repayment in full or at all.

Board of Directors
We are managed by a board of directors which currently consists of seven directors. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that upon the closing of this offering the board of directors shall consist of not less than seven directors.
There are no share ownership qualifications for directors.
Meetings of our board of directors may be convened at any time deemed necessary by any of our directors.
A meeting of our board of directors will be competent to make lawful and binding decisions if at least a majority of the directors are present or represented. At any meeting of our directors, each director, whether by his or her presence or by his or her alternate, is entitled to one vote.
Questions arising at a meeting of our board of directors are required to be decided by simple majority votes of the directors present or represented at the meeting. In the case of a tie vote, the chairman of the meeting shall have a second or deciding vote. Our board of directors may also pass unanimous written resolutions without a meeting.
The remuneration to be paid to the directors shall be such remuneration as the directors shall determine. Under our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the independent directors shall also be entitled to reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the performance of his or her duties as director.
Staggered Board of Directors
Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association will provide for a staggered board of directors consisting of three classes of directors. Directors of each Class are chosen for three year terms upon the expiration of their current terms and each year one class will be elected by our shareholders.
The terms of the Class I, Class II and Class III directors will expire in 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively. Beginning in 2019, our shareholders will elect directors for three-year terms upon the expiration of their current terms. Our shareholders will elect only one class of directors each year. We believe that classification of our board of directors will help to ensure the continuity and stability of our business strategies and policies as determined by our board of directors. There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors. As such, this classified board provision could have the effect of making the replacement of incumbent directors more time-consuming and difficult. At least two annual meetings of shareholders, instead of one, will generally be required to effect a change in a majority of our board of directors. Thus, the classified board provision could increase the likelihood that incumbent directors will retain their positions. The staggered terms of directors also may delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or an attempt to change control of us, even though a tender offer or change in control might be believed by our shareholders to be in their best interest.
Duties of Directors
British Virgin Islands law provides that each of our directors, in exercising his powers or performing his duties, shall act honestly and in good faith and in what the director believes to be in the best interests of the company. Additionally, the director shall exercise the care, diligence, and skill that a reasonable director would exercise in the same circumstances taking into account the nature of the company, the nature of the decision and the position of the director and his responsibilities. In addition, British Virgin Islands law provides that a director shall exercise his powers as a director for a

121

Table of Contents

proper purpose and shall not act, or agree to the company acting, in a manner that contravenes British Virgin Islands law or the memorandum or articles of association of the company.
Issuance of Additional Ordinary Shares
Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association authorize our board of directors to issue additional common shares from time to time as our board of directors shall determine, to the extent of available authorized but unissued shares.
Changes in Authorized Shares
We are authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares which will be subject to the same provisions with reference to the payment of calls, lien, transfer, transmission, forfeiture and otherwise as the shares in issue. We may by resolution:
combine all of our shares into shares of larger par value than our existing shares;
divide all of our shares into shares of smaller par value than our existing shares; or
create new classes of shares with preferences to be determined by the board of directors at the time of authorizati on.
Inspection of Books and Records
Under British Virgin Islands law holders of our common shares will be entitled, on giving written notice to us, to inspect and make copies or take extracts of our: (a) amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; (b) register of shareholders; (c) register of directors; and (d) minutes of meetings and resolutions of shareholders and those classes of shareholders of which he is a shareholder.
Subject to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, our directors may, if they are satisfied that it would be contrary to our interest to allow a shareholder to inspect any document, or part of a document as referenced in (b), (c) or (d) above, refuse to permit the shareholder to inspect the document or limit the inspection of the document, including limiting the making of copies or the taking of extracts from the records. Where our directors exercise their powers in these circumstances, they shall notify the shareholder as soon as reasonably practicable.
Differences in Corporate Law
We were incorporated under, and are governed by, the laws of the British Virgin Islands. The flexibility available under British Virgin Islands law has enabled us to adopt the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association that will provide shareholders with rights that do not vary in any material respect from those they enjoyed under the Delaware Corporate Law.
Conflicts of Interest
Pursuant to the BVI Act and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, a director of a company who has an interest in a transaction and who has declared such interest to the other directors, may:
vote on a matter relating to the transaction;
attend a meeting of directors at which a matter relating to the transaction arises and be included among the directors present at the meeting for the purposes of a quorum; and
sign a document on our behalf, or do any other thing in his capacity as a director, that relates to the transaction.
Anti-money Laundering Laws
In order to comply with legislation or regulations aimed at the prevention of money laundering we may require subscribers to provide evidence to verify their identity.
We reserve the right to request such information as is necessary to verify the identity of a subscriber. In the event of delay or failure on the part of the subscriber in producing any information required for verification purposes, we may refuse to accept the application, in which case any funds received will be returned without interest to the account from which they were originally debited.
If any person resident in the British Virgin Islands knows or suspects that another person is engaged in money laundering or terrorist financing and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of their business, the person will be required to report his belief or suspicion to the Financial Investigation Agency of the British Virgin Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Criminal Conduct Act 1997 (as amended). Such a report shall not be treated

122

Table of Contents

as a breach of confidence or of any restriction upon the disclosure of information imposed by any enactment or otherwise.
Anti-takeover Provisions
The BVI Act does not prevent companies from adopting a wide range of defensive measures, such as staggered boards, blank check preferred shares, removal of directors only for cause and provisions that restrict the rights of shareholders to call meetings and submit shareholder proposals. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association contain the following provisions which may be regarded as defensive measures: (i) a requirement of the affirmative vote of two-thirds or more of the shares entitled to vote on special matters such as mergers or acquisitions; (ii) the prevention of ‘‘business combinations’’ with ‘‘interested shareholders’’ for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested shareholder, unless the business combination is approved in accordance with our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association by a general meeting of our shareholders or satisfies other requirements specified in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; (iii) directors’ ability, in their absolute discretion, to decline to register any transfer of shares without assigning any reason; (iv) our board of directors’ ability to issue, from time to time, one or more classes of preferred shares and, with respect to each such class, to fix the terms thereof by resolution; (v) restrictions on the ability of shareholders to call meetings and bring proposals before meetings; (vi) elimination of the ability of shareholders to act by written consent; and (vii) the requirement of the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the shares entitled to vote to amend certain provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
Interested Directors
The BVI Act provides that a director shall, after becoming aware that he is interested in a transaction entered into or to be entered into by the company, disclose that interest to our board of directors. The failure of a director to disclose that interest does not affect the validity of a transaction entered into by us or the director, so long as the director’s interest was disclosed to the board prior to our entry into the transaction or was not required to be disclosed (for example where the transaction is between us and the director himself or is otherwise in the ordinary course of business and on usual terms and conditions). As permitted by British Virgin Islands law and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, a director interested in a particular transaction may vote on it, attend meetings at which it is considered, and sign documents on our behalf which relate to the transaction.
Voting Rights and Quorum Requirements
Under British Virgin Islands law, the voting rights of shareholders are regulated by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and, in certain circumstances, the BVI Act. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association will govern matters such as quorum for the transaction of business, rights of shares, and majority votes required to approve any action or resolution at a meeting of the shareholders or board of directors. Unless the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association otherwise provide, the requisite majority is usually a simple majority of votes cast.
Mergers and Similar Arrangements
Under the BVI Act, two or more companies may merge or consolidate in accordance with the statutory provisions. A merger means the merging of two or more constituent companies into one of the constituent companies, and a consolidation means the uniting of two or more constituent companies into a new company. In order to merger or consolidate, the directors of each constituent company must approve a written plan of merger or consolidation which must be authorized by a resolution of shareholders.
Shareholders not otherwise entitled to vote on the merger or consolidation may still acquire the right to vote if the plan or merger or consolidation contains any provision which, if proposed as an amendment to the memorandum of association or articles of association, would entitle them to vote as a class or series on the proposed amendment. In any event, all shareholders must be given a copy of the plan of merger or consolidation irrespective of whether they are entitled to vote at the meeting or consent to the written resolution to approve the plan of merger or consolidation.
Shareholder Suits
We are not aware of any reported class action or derivative action having been brought in a British Virgin Islands court.
Under the BVI Act, if a company or a director of a company engages in, or proposes to engage in, conduct that contravenes the BVI Act or the memorandum of association or articles of the company, the BVI Court may, on the application of a shareholder or a director of the company, make an order directing the company or director to comply with, or restraining the company or director from engaging in that conduct.

123

Table of Contents

In addition, under the BVI Act, the BVI Court may, on the application of a shareholder of a company, grant leave to that shareholder to bring proceedings in the name and on behalf of that company or to intervene in proceedings to which the company is a party for the purpose of continuing, defending or discontinuing the proceedings on behalf of the company. In determining whether to grant leave for such derivative actions, the Court must take into account certain matters, including whether the shareholder is acting in good faith, whether the derivative action is in the interests of the company taking account of the views of the company’s directors on commercial matters and whether an alternative remedy to the derivative claim is available.
A shareholder of a company may bring an action against the company for breach of a duty owed by the company to him as a shareholder. The BVI Act also includes provisions for actions based on oppression, and for representative actions where the interests of the claimant are substantially the same as those of other shareholders.
Corporate Governance
British Virgin Islands laws do not restrict transactions with directors, requiring only that directors exercise a duty to act honestly, in good faith and in what the directors believe to be in the best interests to the companies for which they serve.
Indemnification
British Virgin Islands law and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide for the indemnification of our directors against all losses or liabilities incurred or sustained by him or her as a director of our company in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal and this indemnity only applies if he or she acted honestly and in good faith with a view to our best interests and, with respect to any criminal action, he or she must have had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for our common shares is                                , and their address is                            .
Listing
We intend to apply for listing of our common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ESTA.”

MATERIAL BRITISH VIRGIN ISLAND AND U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
The following is a general summary of certain British Virgin Islands and U.S federal income tax consequences relevant to an investment in our common shares. The discussion is not intended to be, nor should it be construed as, legal or tax advice to any prospective purchaser. This discussion is based on laws and relevant interpretations thereof in effect as of the date of this prospectus, all of which are subject to change or different interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not address U.S. state or local tax laws, or tax laws of jurisdictions other than the British Virgin Islands and the United States. You should consult your own tax advisors with respect to the consequences of acquisition, ownership, and disposition of our common shares.
British Virgin Islands Taxation
The British Virgin Islands currently does not impose any income, corporate or capital gains tax, estate duty, inheritance tax, gift tax or withholding tax upon us or our security holders.
The company, and all distributions, interest and other amounts paid by the company to shareholders, are exempt from any income, withholding or capital gains taxes in the British Virgin Islands, with respect to the shares in the company owned by them and dividends received on such shares, nor will they be subject to any estate or inheritance taxes in the British Virgin Islands.
No estate, inheritance, succession or gift tax, rate, duty, levy or other charge is payable by shareholders with respect to any shares, debt obligations or other securities of the company.
All instruments relating to transactions in respect of the shares, debt obligations or other securities of the company and all instruments relating to other transactions relating to the business of the company are exempt from the payment of stamp duty in the British Virgin Islands, provided that they do not relate to real estate situated in the British Virgin Islands.
The British Virgin Islands is not party to any double tax treaties which are applicable to any payments made by or to our company. There are no exchange control regulations in the British Virgin Islands applicable to us or our security holders.
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
The following discussion sets forth the material U.S federal income tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of our common shares by U.S. Holders (as defined below) that will hold our common shares as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment) under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, as amended, or the “Code.” The discussion below of U.S. federal income tax consequences to "U.S. Holders" will apply to you if you are a beneficial owner of our common shares and you are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
an individual citizen or resident of the United States;
a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
a trust if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and one or more U.S. persons that have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applica ble Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
This summary applies only to U.S. Holders, and it does not describe all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to U.S. Holders subject to special rules, such as:
banks and other financial institutions;
insurance companies;
regulated investment companies;
real estate investment trusts;
government organizations;
dealers and traders in securities that use mark-to-market accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
U.S. Holders who are accrual method taxpayers subject to special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code;
U.S. Holders holding common shares as part of a hedging transaction, straddle, conversion transaction or other integrated transaction;

125

Table of Contents

U.S. Holders whose functional currency for U.S. federal income tax purposes is not the U.S. dollar;
U.S. Holders liable for the alternative minimum tax;
tax-exempt organizations or entities, including an "individual retirement account" or "Roth IRA" as defined in Section 408 or 408A of the Code, respectively;
U.S. Holders that received the common shares as compensation for the performance of services;
U.S. Holders holding common shares that own or are deemed to own 10% or more of our value or voting shares; or
former citize ns and residents of the United States subject to tax as expatriates.
The discussion below is based upon applicable provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, pertinent judicial decisions, interpretive rulings of the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, and such other authorities as we have considered relevant, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. In addition, significant changes in U.S. federal income tax laws were recently enacted. You should consult with your tax advisor with respect to such changes in U.S. tax law as well as potential conforming changes in state tax laws.
If you are a partner in a partnership or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes that holds our common shares, your tax treatment will generally depend upon your status and the activities of the partnership. Prospective investors who are partners in a partnership should consult their tax advisers as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of common shares in their particular circumstances.
In addition, this discussion does not address any non-U.S., state, local or any U.S. federal estate, gift or alternative minimum tax considerations. Each U.S. Holder should, and are urged to, consult its own tax adviser concerning the U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. income and other tax consequences of an investment in our common shares.
This discussion is not a complete analysis or listing of all of the possible tax consequences and does not address all tax considerations that may be relevant to investors in light of their particular circumstances.        
Taxation of Dividends
Subject to the discussion below under the subsection titled “Passive Foreign Investment Company”, the gross amount of distributions paid on common shares will be taxable as dividends, to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Such income (including taxes withheld) will be includible in your gross income as ordinary income on the day actually or constructively received by you. Such dividends received from the common shares will be treated as foreign source income and will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to U.S. corporations under the Code. The following discussion assumes that all dividends will be paid in U.S. dollars. As used below, the term "dividend" means a distribution that constitutes a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, certain dividends received from a qualified corporation may be subject to reduced rates of taxation applicable to “qualified dividend income (‘QDI’),” provided that certain conditions are satisfied. A U.S. Holder may receive QDI if the foreign corporation is treated as a qualified foreign corporation. A foreign corporation should be a qualified corporation if its shares, with respect to dividends received from the corporation, are readily tradable on an established U.S. securities market. Additionally, a U.S. Holder is required to (i) hold such common shares for 61 days or more during the 121-day period beginning on the date which is 60 days before the date on which such shares become ex-dividend with respect to such dividends and (ii) the U.S. Holder is not under an obligation (whether pursuant to a short sale or otherwise) to make related payments with respect to existing or substantially similar or related property. Our common shares are expected to be readily tradable on Nasdaq after this offering. However, such reduced rate will not apply if we are a for the taxable year in which we pay a dividend or were a PFIC for the preceding taxable year. See the subsection below titled “Passive Foreign Investment Company”.
To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits for the taxable year, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, the distribution will first be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted basis of the common shares (thereby increasing the amount of gain, or decreasing the amount of loss, to be recognized by you on the subsequent disposition of common shares), and the balance in excess of the adjusted basis will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange, as described below under “Taxation of Capital Gains.” Because we do not maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, it is expected that distributions generally will be reported to U.S. Holders as dividends. Distributions of additional common shares to U.S. Holders that are part of a pro rata distribution to all of our shareholders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. The amount of any distribution of property other than cash will be the fair market value of such property on the date of distribution.

Taxation of Capital Gains
For U.S federal income tax purposes, you will generally recognize taxable gain or loss on any sale or exchange of common shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized for the common share and your tax basis in the common shares. Generally, your tax basis should be the amount paid for the common shares. Subject to the discussion under “Passive Foreign Investment Company” below, such gain or loss will generally be capital gain or loss. Capital gains of individuals derived with respect to capital assets held for more than one year should be eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code. Such gain or loss generally will be U.S.-source gain or loss. You are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences if foreign tax is imposed on a disposition of our common shares, including the availability of the foreign tax credit under your particular circumstance.
Passive Foreign Investment Company
Based on the projected composition of our income and valuation of our assets, including goodwill, we do not believe we were a PFIC in 2017 and we do not expect to be a PFIC for our current taxable year or to become one in the future, although because our PFIC status is subject to a number of uncertainties, neither we nor our tax advisors can provide any assurances regarding our PFIC status . A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC in any taxable year in which, either:
at least 75% of its gross income is passive income; or
at least 50% of the average quarterly value of its total gross assets is attributable to assets that produce "passive income" or are held for the production of passive income.
For this purpose, passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, and rents (other than royalties and rents derived in the active conduct of a trade or business and not derived from a related person). If we own at least 25%, directly or indirectly, (by value) of shares of another corporation, we will be treated, for purposes of the PFIC tests, as owning our proportionate share of the other corporation’s assets and receiving our proportionate share of the other corporation’s income.
The determination of whether we are a PFIC is made annually. Accordingly it is possible that we may become a PFIC in the current or any future taxable year due to changes in our asset or income composition. If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold our common shares, you will be subject to special rules discussed below.
If we were a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold our common shares, you will be subject to special tax rules with respect to any “excess distribution” received and any gain realized from the sale or other disposition (including, under certain circumstances, a pledge) of our common shares. Distributions received in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distribution received during the shorter of the three preceding taxable years or your holding period for the common shares will be treated as excess distribution. Under these special rules:
the excess distribution or gain will be allocated ratably over your holding period for the common shares;
the amount allocated to the current taxable year, and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in your holding period in which we were a PFIC, will be treated as ordinary income; and
the amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for that taxabl e year for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge would be imposed on the tax attributable to the allocated amount.
In addition, non-corporate U.S Holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any dividends received from us if we are a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year. You will generally be required to file Internal Revenue Service Form 8621 if you hold our common shares in any year in which we are classified as a PFIC.
If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold our common shares and any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is also a PFIC, a U.S. Holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of the lower-tier PFIC for purposes of the application of these rules. You are urged to consult your tax advisors about the application of the PFIC rules to any of our subsidiaries.
In certain circumstances, certain elections may be available that would result in alternative treatments (such as mark-to-market treatment) of common shares. Additionally, you can sometimes avoid the rules described above by electing to treat a PFIC as a “qualified electing fund” under Section 1295 of the Code. However, we do not intend to provide information necessary for U.S. Holders to make qualified electing fund elections if, contrary to our expectation, we are

127

Table of Contents

classified as a PFIC. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers to determine whether any of these elections would be available and if so, what the consequences of the alternative treatments would be in their particular circumstances.
Medicare Tax
Certain U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts are subject to a 3.8% tax on all or a portion of their “net investment income,” which may include all or a portion of their dividend income and net gains from the disposition of common shares. Each U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate or trust is urged to consult its tax advisors regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax to its income and gains in respect of its investment in the common shares.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
In general, information reporting will apply to dividends in respect to our common shares and the proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of our common shares that are paid to you within the U.S (and in certain cases outside the U.S). Payments of dividends and proceeds from the sale or other taxable disposition that are made within the U.S or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries generally are subject to information reporting, and may be subject to backup withholding, unless (1) the U.S. Holder is a corporation or other exempt recipient or (2) in the case of backup withholding, the U.S. Holder provides a correct taxpayer identification number and certifies that it is not subject to backup withholding.
Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability provided that the required information is timely furnished to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.
Foreign Asset Reporting
Under the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act of 2010, certain U.S. Holders who are required to report information relating to an interest in common shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for common shares held in accounts maintained by U.S. financial institutions), by attaching a complete Internal Revenue Service Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets, with their tax return for each year in which they hold common shares. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors regarding their information reporting obligations, if any, with respect to your ownership of common shares.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for common shares and we cannot assure you that a liquid trading market for the common shares will develop or be sustained after this offering. Future sales of substantial amounts of common shares, including shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options and warrants, in the public market after this offering, or the possibility of these sales occurring, could adversely affect the prevailing market price for our common shares or impair our ability to raise equity capital.
Based on the number of shares outstanding as of March 31, 2018, upon the closing of this offering,            common shares will be outstanding, assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common shares and no exercise of outstanding options or warrants or issuance of shares reserved in connection with acquisition-related obligations. Of the outstanding shares, all of the shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable, except that any shares held by our affiliates, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, may only be sold in compliance with the limitations described below.
The remaining                  common shares will be deemed “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144. Restricted securities may be sold in the public market only if they are registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 or Rule 701 under the Securities Act, which rules are summarized below. In addition, holders of substantially all of our equity securities are subject to market stand-off agreements or have entered into lock-up agreements with the underwriters under which they have agreed, subject to specific exceptions, not to sell any of our equity for at least 180 days following the date of this prospectus, as described below. As a result of these agreements and the provisions of our amended and restated investors’ rights agreement described above under “Description of Share Capital- Key Provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and British Virgin Islands Law Affecting our Common Shares ,” subject to the provisions of Rule 144 or Rule 701, following the expiration of the lock-up period, all shares subject to such provisions and agreements will be available for sale in the public market only if registered or pursuant to an exemption from registration under Rule 144 or Rule 701 under the Securities Act.
Rule 144
In general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted common shares for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that: (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale; and (ii) we are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, for at least 90 days before the sale. Persons who have beneficially owned restricted common shares for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following:
1% of the number of common shares outstanding after this offering, which will equal approximately           shares immediately after the closing of this offering, based on the number of common shares outstanding as of March 31 , 2018; or
the average weekly trading volume of our common shares on Nasdaq during the four calendar weeks preced ing the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale;
provided, in each case, that we are subject to the periodic reporting requirements the Exchange Act for at least 90 days before the sale. Such sales both by affiliates and by non-affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale, current public information and notice provisions of Rule 144.
Rule 701
Rule 701 under the Securities Act, as currently in effect, generally allows a shareholder who purchased common shares pursuant to a written compensatory plan or contract and who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of our company during the immediately preceding 90 days to sell these shares (subject to the requirements of the lock-up agreements, as described below) in reliance upon Rule 144, but without being required to comply with the public information, holding period, volume limitation, or notice provisions of Rule 144. Rule 701 also permits affiliates of our company to sell their Rule 701 shares under Rule 144 without complying with the holding period requirements of Rule 144. However, all holders of Rule 701 shares are required to wait until 90 days after the date of this prospectus (or until such later date that is required by the lock-up agreements, as described below) before selling such shares pursuant to Rule 701.
Lock-Up Agreements
We, our officers, directors, certain of our option holders and warrant holders, and holders of substantially all of our outstanding share capital have agreed with the underwriters that for a period of 180 days following the date of this

129

prospectus, subject to certain exceptions, we will not offer, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of or hedge any common shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for common shares, subject to specified exceptions. Jefferies LLC and Cowen and Company, LLC jointly may, at their discretion and at any time or from time to time before the termination of the 180-day period, release all or any portion of the shares from the restrictions in the lock-up agreement.
Registration Statements on Form S-8
Upon the completion of this offering, we intend to file a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register all of the common shares issued or reserved for issuance under our share option plans. Shares covered by this registration statement will be eligible for sale in the public market, upon the expiration or release from the terms of the lock-up agreements and subject to vesting of such shares and Rule 144 limitations applicable to affiliates.
Registration Rights
Upon the closing of this offering, the holders of an aggregate of 14,158,113 common shares, issuable upon the conversion of outstanding ordinary shares and ordinary shares currently subject to outstanding warrants and options, and the holders of warrants issued in connection with the N ote and Warrant Purchase Agreement we entered with CPH to purchase an aggregate of 145,000 common shares, are entitled to certain rights with respect to the registration of the offer and sale of such common shares under the Securities Act.  Registration of these shares under the Securities Act would result in the shares becoming freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act immediately upon the effectiveness of the registration.  See the section entitled “Description of Capital Stock - Key Provisions of our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and British Virgin Islands Law Affecting our Common Shares - Registration Rights” for additional information.

The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the several underwriters are subject to certain conditions precedent, such as the receipt by the underwriters of officers’ certificates legal opinions and approval of certain legal matters by their counsel and may be terminated at their discretion upon the occurrence of certain stated events. The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriters will purchase all of the common shares if any of them are purchased, other than those shares covered by the option to purchase additional common shares described below. If an underwriter defaults, the underwriting agreement provides that the purchase commitments of the non-defaulting underwriters may be increased or the underwriting agreement may be terminated. We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters and certain of their controlling persons against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.
The underwriters have advised us that, following the pricing of this offering, they currently intend to make a market in our common shares as permitted by applicable laws and regulations. However, the underwriters are not obligated to do so, and the underwriters may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice in their sole discretion. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for our common shares, that you will be able to sell any of our common shares held by you at a particular time or that the prices that you receive when you sell will be favorable.
The underwriters are offering the common shares subject to their acceptance of the common shares from us and subject to prior sale. The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part. In addition, the underwriters have advised us that they do not intend to confirm sales to any account over which they exercise discretionary authority.
Commission and Expenses
The underwriters have advised us that they propose to offer the common shares to the public at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and to certain dealers, which may include the underwriters, at that price less a concession not in excess of $         per common share. After the offering, the initial public offering price, concession and reallowance to dealers may be reduced by the representative. No such reduction will change the amount of proceeds to be received by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus.

We estimate expenses payable by us in connection with this offering, other than the underwriting discounts and commissions referred to above, will be approximately $           million. We have also agreed to reimburse the underwriters for up to $                 of expenses related to the review of this offering by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
Determination of Offering Price
Prior to this offering, there has not been a public market for our common shares. Consequently, the initial public offering price for our common shares will be determined by negotiations between us and the representatives. Among the factors to be considered in these negotiations will be prevailing market conditions, our financial information, market valuations of other companies that we and the underwriters believe to be comparable to us, estimates of our business potential, the present state of our development and other factors deemed relevant.
We offer no assurances that the initial public offering price will correspond to the price at which our common shares will trade in the public market subsequent to the offering or that an active trading market for our common shares will develop and continue after the offering.
Listing
We intend to apply to list our common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to notice of issuance, under the trading symbol “ESTA.”
Stamp Taxes
If you purchase common shares offered in this prospectus, you may be required to pay stamp taxes and other charges under the laws and practices of the country of purchase, in addition to the offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus.
Option to Purchase Additional Shares
We have granted to the underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this prospectus, to purchase, from time to time, in whole or in part, up to an aggregate of                   common shares from us at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, less underwriting discounts and commissions. If the underwriters exercise this option, each underwriter will be obligated, subject to specified conditions, to purchase a number of additional shares proportionate to that underwriter’s initial purchase commitment as indicated in the table above.
No Sales of Similar Securities
We, our officers, directors, certain of our option holders and warrant holders, and holders of all of our outstanding share capital have agreed, subject to specified exceptions, not to directly or indirectly:
sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell (including any short sale), pledge, transfer, establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act,
otherwise dispose of any common shares, options or warrants to acquire common shares, or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into common shares currently or hereafter owned either of record or beneficially, or
publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus without the prior written c onsent of Jefferies LLC and Cowen and Company, LLC.

132

Table of Contents

This restriction terminates after the close of trading of our common shares on and including the 180 th day after the date of this prospectus.
Jefferies LLC and Cowen and Company, LLC jointly may, at their discretion and at any time or from time to time before the termination of the 180-day period, release all or any portion of the securities subject to lock-up agreements. There are no existing agreements between the underwriters and our shareholders who will execute a lock-up agreement, providing consent to the sale of shares prior to the expiration of the lock-up period.
Stabilization
The underwriters have advised us that, pursuant to Regulation M under the Exchange Act, they engage in short sale transactions, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions or the imposition of penalty bids in connection with this offering. These activities may have the effect of stabilizing or maintaining the market price of our common shares at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Establishing short sales positions may involve either “covered” short sales or “naked” short sales.
“Covered” short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common shares in this offering. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional common shares or purchasing common shares in the open market. In determining the source of common shares to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of common shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase common shares through the option to purchase additional common shares.
“Naked” short sales are sales in excess of the option to purchase additional common shares. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing common shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our common shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering.
A stabilizing bid is a bid for the purchase of common shares on behalf of the underwriters for the purpose of fixing or maintaining the price of our common shares. A syndicate covering transaction is the bid for or the purchase of common shares on behalf of the underwriters to reduce a short position incurred by the underwriters in connection with the offering. Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriter’s purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common shares or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common shares. As a result, the price of our common shares may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. A penalty bid is an arrangement permitting the underwriters to reclaim the selling concession otherwise accruing to a syndicate member in connection with the offering if our common shares originally sold by such syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction and therefore have not been effectively placed by such syndicate member.
Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common shares. The underwriters are not obligated to engage in these activities and, if commenced, any of the activities may be discontinued at any time.
The underwriters may also engage in passive market making transactions in our common shares on The Nasdaq Capital Market in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of common shares in this offering and extending through the completion of distribution. A passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid of that security. However, if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, that bid must then be lowered when specified purchase limits are exceeded.
Electronic Distribution
A prospectus in electronic format may be made available by e-mail or on the websites or through online services maintained by one or more of the underwriters or their affiliates. In those cases, prospective investors may view offering terms online and may be allowed to place orders online. The underwriters may agree with us to allocate a specific number of common shares for sale to online brokerage account holders. Any such allocation for online distributions will be made by the underwriters on the same basis as other allocations. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on the underwriters’ websites and any information contained in any other website maintained by any of the underwriters is not part of this prospectus, has not been approved and/or endorsed by us or the underwriters and should not be relied upon by investors.

If the underwriters or their respective affiliates have a lending relationship with us, they routinely hedge their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. The underwriters and their respective affiliates may hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities or the securities of our affiliates, including potentially our common shares offered hereby. Any such short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of our common shares offered hereby. The underwriters and certain of their respective affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES UNDER U.S. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS
Almost all of our assets are located outside of the United States. A majority of our officers are nationals or residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for a shareholder to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons, or to enforce against us or them judgments obtained in U.S. courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state of the United States. We have appointed Motiva USA LLC, as our agent upon whom process may be served in any action brought against us under the securities laws of the United States.
We have been advised by Conyers Dill & Pearman, our counsel as to British Virgin Islands Law, that the United States and the British Virgin Islands do not have a treaty providing for reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts of the United States in civil and commercial matters and that a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any general or state court in the United States based on civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the U.S. federal securities laws, would not be automatically enforceable in the British Virgin Islands. We have also been advised by Conyers Dill & Pearman that at common law, the courts of the British Virgin Islands would recognize as a valid judgment, a final and conclusive judgment in personum obtained in the courts of all countries not covered by the British Virgin Islands Reciprocal Enforcement of Judgments Act (Cap. 65) (or, where applicable, the Foreign Judgments (Reciprocal Enforcement) Act (Cap. 27)) against us based upon the documents under which a sum of money is payable (other than a sum of money payable in respect of multiple damages, taxes or other charges of a like nature or in respect of a fine or other penalty) and would give a judgment based thereon provided that (a) such courts had proper jurisdiction over the parties subject to such judgment, (b) such courts did not contravene the rules of natural justice of the British Virgin Islands, (c) such judgment was not obtained by fraud, (d) the enforcement of the judgment would not be contrary to the public policy of the British Virgin Islands, (e) no new admissible evidence relevant to the action is submitted prior to the rendering of the judgment by the courts of the British Virgin Islands and (f) there is due compliance with the correct procedures under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. Such a judgment would be enforced by treating the judgment as a cause of action and commencing an action on the foreign judgment debt in the Court of the British Virgin Islands, with a view to proceeding with the claim by way of summary judgment.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Establishment Labs Holdings Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Establishment Labs Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Explanatory Paragraph - Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1, the Company has incurred significant losses and currently does not expect to experience positive cash flows from operations in the near future and is in technical default of certain debt covenants . These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1.      Formation, Business of the Company and Going Concern
Formation and Business of the Company
Establishment Labs Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) is a global company that manufactures and markets innovative medical devices for aesthetic plastic surgery, reconstructive plastic surgery, and aesthetic dermatology. The Company was established in the British Virgin Islands on October 9, 2013, at which time Establishment Labs, S.A., the Costa Rican manufacturing company, was reincorporated as a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company also has wholly-owned subsidiaries in the United States (JAMM Technologies, Inc. and Motiva USA LLC), Belgium (European Distribution Center Motiva BVBA), Brazil ( Establishment Labs Produtos para Saude Ltda) , France (Motiva Implants France SAS), Sweden (Motiva Nordica AB) and Switzerland (JEN-Vault AG). Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are derived from the sale of silicone breast implants under the brand of Motiva Implants.
The main manufacturing activities are conducted in two manufacturing facilities in Costa Rica. Beginning in 2010, the Company began operating under the Costa Rica free zone regime (Régimen de Zona Franca) which provides for reduced income tax and other tax obligations pursuant to an agreement with the Costa Rican authorities (see Note 12).
The Company’s products are approved for sale in Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Australia and Asia. The Company is actively working on obtaining regulatory approval to commercialize its products in the United States. The Company sells its products internationally through distributors as well as making direct sales to customers.
The Company has been expanding its global operations through a series of acquisitions. In November 2015, the Company purchased certain assets from Magna Equities I, LLC and established its wholly-owned subsidiary, JAMM Technologies, Inc., in the United States. In January 2016, the Company purchased a distribution company in Brazil to support the application to sell its products in Brazil. In March 2016, the Company purchased a storage and distribution company in Belgium to support its continued growth in Europe. In September 2016, the Company purchased a distribution company in France and established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Switzerland. In November 2017, the Company acquired certain assets from Femiline AB and established its wholly-owned subsidiary in Sweden, Motiva Nordica AB (see Note 11).
Going Concern
During the year ended December 31, 2017 , the Company incurred a net loss of $ 34.9 million and used $32.0 million of cash in operations. At December 31, 2017 , the Company had an accumulated deficit of $67.9 million and currently does not expect to experience positive cash flows from operations in the near future. The Company has financed operations to date primarily through private placements of debt and equity securities.
On August 24, 2017 the Company entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The Company initially defaulted on the Madryn Credit Agreement on January 19, 2018 when it failed to put a Qualifying Control Agreement in place for certain bank deposit accounts and subsequently on February 28, 2018 when its investment in its Brazilian subsidiary exceeded the allowable $5.0 million threshold permitted under the Madryn Credit Agreement. As a result, on March 23, 2018 and subsequently on April 30, 2018, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lenders, where the Lenders agreed to forebear from exercising certain rights and remedies through May 18, 2018 arising from certain disclosure and other technical defaults under the Madryn Credit Agreement, including those mentioned above with respect to our Brazilian subsidiary. Accordingly, as the forbearance agreement does not cover a period exceeding twelve months after the date of these financial statements, the Company recorded the Madryn debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet (see Note 6). Management is working with the Lenders to amend the Madryn Credit Agreement to remove the restrictive covenants that resulted in the technical defaults which would allow the Company to reclassify the arrangement as long-term.
Management expects the Company to continue to incur additional losses in the near and intermediate future because of the Company’s activities. The negative cash flows from operations, lack of financial resources of the Company and classification of Madryn debt as current raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued. Management plans to finance operations through equity or debt financing arrangements; however, if the Company is unable to raise additional funding to meet its working capital needs, if funds are only available at terms unfavorable to the Company, or if management is not able to amend the terms of Madryn Credit Agreement, the Company may be forced to delay or reduce the scope of its capital investment programs and/or limit or cease its operations. The Company will need to raise substantial additional

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


funding in the near term to sustain operations.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and reclassification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2017 as follows :

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Segments
The chief operating decision maker for the Company is the Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by information about revenue by geographic region, for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company has one business activity and there are no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results or plans for levels or components below the consolidated unit level. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it has a single reportable and operating segment structure. The Company and its Chief Executive Officer evaluate performance based primarily on revenue in the geographic locations in which the Company operates.
Geographic Concentrations
The Company derives all of its revenues from sales to customers in Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Australia and Asia, and has not yet received approval to sell its products in the United States.
For the year ended December 31, 2016, South Korea accounted for 12% of total consolidated revenue, on a ship-to destination basis. For the year ended December 31, 2017, no individual country exceeded 10% of consolidated revenue.
The Company’s long-lived assets located in Costa Rica represented the majority of the total long-lived assets as of December 31, 2016 and 2017 .
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and

F-10

Table of Contents
ESTABLISHMENT LABS HOLDINGS INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates and management judgments reflected in the consolidated financial statements include items such as accounts receivable valuation and allowances, inventory valuation and allowances, valuation of acquired intangible assets, valuation of derivatives, estimation of assets’ useful lives and valuation of deferred income tax assets, including tax valuation allowances. Estimates are based on historical experience, where applicable, and other assumptions believed to be reasonable by management. Actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Concentration of Credit Risk, Other Risks and Uncertainties
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash, restricted cash and accounts receivable. The majority of the Company’s cash is held at financial institutions in the United States and Costa Rica. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash.
All of the Company’s revenue has been derived from sales of its products in international markets, principally Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Australia and Asia. In the international markets in which the Company participates, the Company uses a combination of distributors to sell its products as well as making direct sales to customers in certain markets. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its distributors and customers, does not require collateral, and maintains allowances for potential credit losses on customer accounts when deemed necessary.
During the year ended December 31, 2016 , one customer accounted for 12.0% of the Company’s revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2017 , no customers accounted for over 10.0% of the Company’s revenue. One customer accounted for 16.0% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2016 . No customers accounted for over 10.0% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2017 . Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are derived from the sale of silicone breast implants under the brand of Motiva Implants.
The Company relies on NuSil Technology, LLC, or NuSil, as the sole supplier of medical-grade silicone used in Motiva Implants as well as other products that are manufactured under contract to other customers. During the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 , the Company had purchases of $4.9 million or 44.0% of total purchases and $10.2 million or 40.6% of total purchases, respectively, from NuSil, and as of December 31, 2016 and 2017 , had an outstanding balance owed to this supplier of $0.7 million and $0.8 million , respectively.
The Company’s future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company’s future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, uncertainty of regulatory approval of the Company’s current and potential future products, uncertainty of market acceptance of the Company’s products, competition from substitute products and larger companies, securing and protecting proprietary technology, strategic relationships and dependence on key individuals and sole source suppliers.
Products developed by the Company require clearances from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or other international regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales. There can be no assurance that the products will receive the necessary clearances. If the Company was denied clearance, clearance was delayed or the Company was unable to maintain its existing clearances, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
Cash
The Company’s cash consist of cash maintained in checking and interest bearing accounts. The Company accounts for financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase as cash equivalents. The Company held no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2016 and 2017 .
Restricted Cash
As of December 31, 2016, the restricted cash balance represented a certificate of deposit collateralizing payment of charges related to the Company's corporate credit card and a deposit related to the Company’s operating lease for its new manufacturing facility in Costa Rica. During 2017, the deposit related to the Company’s manufacturing facility was refunded.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable is stated at invoice value less estimated allowances for returns and doubtful accounts. The Company continually monitors customer payments and maintains an allowance for estimated losses resulting from customers’ inability to make required payments. In evaluating the Company’s ability to collect outstanding receivable balances, the Company considers various factors including the age of the balance, the creditworthiness of the customer, which is

F-11

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


assessed based on ongoing credit evaluations and payment history, and the customer’s current financial condition. In cases where there are circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, an allowance is recorded against amounts due, which reduces the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably believed to be collectible. Historical returns of products have been de minimis and accordingly no allowance for returns was recorded as of December 31, 2016 and 2017.
Inventory and Cost of Revenue
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost to purchase or manufacture the inventory or the net realizable value of such inventory. Cost is determined using the standard cost method which approximates actual costs using the first-in, first-out basis. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities in consideration of actual loss experiences, projected future demand, and remaining shelf life to record a provision for excess and slow-moving inventory. No inventory allowance has been recorded as of December 31, 2016 and 2017.
The Company recognizes the cost of inventory transferred to the customer in cost of revenue when revenue is recognized.
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. Shipping and handling costs included in SG&A were $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 , respectively.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue related to sales of products to distributors or directly to customers in markets where it has regulatory approval, net of trade discounts and allowances. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met:
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
the sales price is fixed or determinable;
collection of the relevant receivable is probable at the time of sale; and
delivery has occurred or services have been rendered.
The Company recognizes revenue related to the sales of products to distributors at the time of shipment of the product, which represents the point in time when the customer has taken ownership and assumed the risk of loss and the required revenue recognition criteria are satisfied. The Company’s distributors are obligated to pay within specified terms regardless of when or if they sell the products. The Company’s contracts with distributors do not typically contain right of return or price protection and have no post-delivery obligations.
A portion of the Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of consigned inventory maintained at physician, hospital, and clinic locations. For these products, revenue is recognized at the time the Company is notified by the customer that the product has been implanted, not when the consigned products are delivered to the customer’s warehouse.
The Company has a limited warranty to distributors for the shelf life of the product, which is five years from the time of manufacture. Estimated warranty obligations are recorded at the time of sale. The Company also offers a warranty to patients in the event of rupture and a replacement program for capsular contracture events provided certain registration requirements are met. Revenue for extended warranties are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement. To date, these warranty and program costs have been de minimis. The Company will continue to evaluate the warranty reserve policies for adequacy considering claims history.
Deferred revenue primarily consists of payments received in advance of meeting revenue recognition criteria. The Company has received payments from distributors to provide distribution exclusivity within a geographic area, and recognizes deferred revenue on a ratable basis over the term of such contractual distribution relationship. Additionally, the Company has received payments from customers in direct markets prior to surgical implantation, and recognizes deferred revenue at the time the Company is notified by the customer that the product has been implanted. For all arrangements, any revenue that has been deferred and is expected to be recognized beyond one year is classified as long-term deferred revenue and included in “Other liabilities, long term” on the consolidated balance sheets.

For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


Research and Development
Costs related to research and development activities are expensed as incurred. Research and development, or R&D, costs primarily include personnel costs, materials, clinical expenses, regulatory expenses, product development, consulting services, outside research activities, all of which are directly related to research and development activities.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses include sales and marketing costs, payroll and related benefit costs, insurance expenses, shipping and handling costs, legal and professional fees and administrative overhead.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.
Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives of five to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the remaining lease term after factoring expected renewal periods. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in operations. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Substantially all of the Company’s manufacturing operations and related property and equipment is located in Costa Rica.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company records the excess of the acquisition purchase price over the net fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as goodwill. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, the Company tests goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. In connection with the annual impairment test for goodwill, the Company elected the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the impairment test is performed. Consistent with the Company's assessment that it has only one reporting segment, the Company has determined that it has only one reporting unit and tests goodwill for impairment at the entity level using the two-step process required by ASC 350. In the first step, the Company compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit to the fair value of the enterprise. If the fair value of the enterprise exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not considered impaired and no further testing is required. If the carrying value of the enterprise exceeds the fair value, goodwill is potentially impaired and the second step of the impairment test must be performed. In the second step, the Company compares the implied fair value of the goodwill, as defined by ASC 350, to its carrying amount to determine the impairment loss, if any.  
The Company capitalizes certain costs related to intangible assets, such as patents and trademarks and records purchased intangible assets at their respective estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method over their remaining estimated useful lives, which range from two to fifteen years. The Company evaluates the remaining useful lives of intangible assets on a periodic basis to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining estimated amortization period. The Company tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on at least an annual basis and whenever circumstances suggest the assets may be impaired. If indicators of impairment are present, the Company evaluates the carrying value of the intangible assets in relation to estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. The Company also evaluates the remaining useful life of an indefinite-lived intangible asset to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life.
During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 , there has been no impairment of goodwill or intangible assets based on the qualitative assessments performed by the Company.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable. When such an event occurs, management determines whether there has been impairment by comparing the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to the related asset group’s carrying value. If an asset is considered impaired, the asset is written down to fair value, which is determined based either on discounted cash flows or appraised value, depending on the nature of the asset. There were no

F-13

Table of Contents
ESTABLISHMENT LABS HOLDINGS INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


impairment charges, or changes in estimated useful lives recorded d uring the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017.
Debt and Embedded Derivatives
The Company applies the accounting standards for derivatives and hedging and for distinguishing liabilities from equity when accounting for hybrid contracts. The Company accounts for convertible debt instruments when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments in accordance with ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options. The Company records, when necessary, discounts to notes payable for the intrinsic value of conversion and other options embedded in debt instruments as a beneficial conversion option based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying shares at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note (see Note 6).
The Company uses option pricing valuation models to determine the fair value of embedded derivatives and records any change in fair value as a component of other income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations (see Note 5).
Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discounts
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of new debt are capitalized. Capitalizable debt issuance costs paid to third parties and debt discounts paid to creditors, net of amortization, are recorded as a reduction to the long-term debt balance on the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense on capitalized debt issuance costs and debt discounts related to loans are calculated using the effective interest method over the term of the loan commitment, and is recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Share Warrant Liability
The Company has issued freestanding warrants to purchase shares of its ordinary shares in conjunction with certain debt arrangements. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2017-11 I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments With Down Round Features and II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests With a Scope Exception ., the Company classified the fair value of these warrants as liabilities due to the existence of certain cash settlement features that were not within the sole control of the Company and/or existence of a variable settlement provision that caused these warrants not to be indexed to the Company’s own shares. At the end of each reporting period, changes in estimated fair value during the period were recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company used the Monte-Carlo valuation model to determine the fair value of the warrants.
As a result of the complex valuation models used to determine the fair value of the warrants, the valuation of this derivative instrument is subjective because the models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the share price and expected volatility. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and, such impacts can, in turn, result in material non-cash charges or credits in the consolidated statements of operations as other income or expense. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the expiration of the warrants, the reclassification of the warrants from a liability to equity, or their exercise.
After the adoption of ASU 2017-11, the Company is no longer required to classify the warrants issued as a liability. As a result, the Company recorded an extinguishment of warrant liability upon the adoption of the new guidance in the second quarter of 2017 (see Note 9).
Income Taxes
The Company records income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements or income tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, expected future events, enactments or changes in the tax law or rates are considered. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to audit by various tax authorities.
The Company records uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process whereby (1) a determination is made as to whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold the Company recognizes the

F-14

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. Significant judgment is required in the identification of uncertain tax positions and in the estimation of penalties and interest on uncertain tax positions.
There were no material uncertain tax positions in fiscal 2016 and 2017 .
Foreign Currency
The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries whose functional currencies are the local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars for consolidation as follows: assets and liabilities at the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, stockholders’ equity at the historical rates of exchange, and income and expense amounts at the average exchange rate for the month. Translation adjustments resulting from the translation of the subsidiaries’ accounts are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).” Transactions denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currency are converted to the functional currency at the exchange rate on the transaction date. At period end, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured to the functional currency using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included within “Other income (expense), net.”
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company’s comprehensive income consists of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments arising from the consolidation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred offering costs, consisting of legal, accounting and other fees and costs relating to the Company’s planned initial public offering, or IPO, are capitalized within “Other non-current assets” on the consolidated balance sheet. The deferred offering costs will be offset against the proceeds received upon the closing of the planned IPO. In the event the planned IPO is terminated, all of the deferred offering costs will be expensed within loss from operations. As of December 31, 2016 and 2017, $1.1 million and $0, respectively, of deferred offering costs were capitalized. Due to a delayed IPO process beyond 90 days, the Company expensed the previously deferred offering costs of $1.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2017.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based awards in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Stock Compensation . Stock-based awards granted include stock options and restricted stock awards, or RSAs. Share-based compensation expense for stock options and RSAs granted to employees is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the awards and is recognized as an expense ratably on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The fair value of options to purchase ordinary shares granted to employees is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.
The Company accounts for stock options and RSAs issued to non-employees under ASC 505-50 Equity: Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees , using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value stock options. The fair value of such non-employee awards is remeasured at each quarter-end over the vesting period.
The calculation of stock-based compensation expense requires that the Company make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the Black-Scholes model, including the expected term, expected volatility of the underlying common shares, risk-free interest rate and dividends.
The Company has adopted ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting , under which it will recognize forfeitures as they occur rather than applying a prospective forfeiture rate in advance (see Note 10).
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, any shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable, share warrants and share options and non-vested restricted stock

units outstanding under the Company’s equity plan are potentially dilutive securities. Because the Company has reported a net loss in all periods presented, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net loss per ordinary share for those periods because including the dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on the financial position, the results of operations or the cash flows of the Company.
Recent Accounting Standards
The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, enacted in April 2012. The Company intends to take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements including following private company effective dates for new or revised accounting standards.
The following recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, could have a material effect on our financial statements:
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives And Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting For Certain Financial Instruments With Down Round Features, (Part Ii) Replacement Of The Indefinite Deferral For Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments Of Certain Nonpublic Entities And Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests With A Scope Exception. The standard simplifies the accounting for certain equity-linked financial instruments and embedded features with down round features by no longer requiring entities to consider a down round feature when determining whether a financial instrument is considered indexed to the entity’s own shares and thus can be classified as equity. The guidance must be applied using a full or modified retrospective approach. It is effective for non-public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements of fiscal years or interim periods that have not yet been issued or that have not yet been made available for issuance. The Company adopted the new guidance in July 2017 on a modified retrospective basis. As a result, certain warrants that were previously classified as a liability due to an existence of down round features became qualified to be classified as equity. The adoption of this standard resulted in $1.0 million reclassification of warrant liability into additional paid in capital as of July 1, 2017.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition . This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 provides two methods of retrospective application. The first method would require the Company to apply ASU 2014-09 to each prior reporting period presented. The second method would require the Company to retrospectively apply ASU 2014-09 with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. ASU 2014-09 is effective for non-public business entities beginning in fiscal 2019 as a result of ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, ” which was issued by the FASB in August 2015 and extended the original effective date by one year. In 2016, the FASB issued additional updates to the new revenue standard relating to reporting revenue on a gross versus net basis, identifying performance obligations and licensing arrangements, and narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, respectively. The effective date of this additional update is the same as that of ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the available methodologies of ASU 2014-09 and the related updated revenue recognition guidance upon its financial statements in future reporting periods. The Company has not yet selected a transition method. The Company is in the process of evaluating the new standard against its existing accounting policies, including the timing of revenue recognition, and its contracts with customers to determine the effect the guidance will have on its financial statements and what changes to systems and controls may be warranted.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the

F-16

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


principle of whether the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than twelve months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of twelve months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. ASC 842 supersedes the previous leases standard, ASC 840 Leases. The standard is effective for non-public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting . This ASU provides amendments to the current guidance on determining which changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards require the application of modification accounting. The effects of a modification should be accounted for unless there are no changes between the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the modified award and the original award immediately before the original award is modified. ASU 2017-09 is effective for non-public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.

Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 was $0.4 million and $1.6 million , respectively. The Company entered into capital leases relating to equipment and vehicles and recorded the fair value of the lease payments on the initial contract date, and is amortizing the assets over the term of the leases. As of December 31, 2016 and 2017 , the gross asset value for capital lease assets was $1.1 million and $1.3 million , respectively. Depreciation expense for assets under capital leases was de minimus for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 .
In August 2015, the Company entered into a contract with the Zona Franca Coyol, S.A. to have them build a new manufacturing facility in Costa Rica. The construction of the new 27,900 square foot facility began in November 2015 and was finished during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The construction costs were paid for by the Company. The Company has an option to purchase the title to the building for approximately $3.5 million and on May 11, 2016 the Company provided notice of the intent to exercise the purchase right and expects the transaction to complete by the end of 2018 . Currently, the Company leases the building from Zona Franca Coyol, S.A. for approximately $28 thousand per month.
4.      Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of entities accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting are recorded at the estimated fair value of the assets acquired. Purchased intangibles include certain patents and license rights, 510(k) authorization by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, to sell a medical device and other intangible assets.
The Company’s goodwill and most intangibles at December 31, 2017 are the result of acquisitions of certain assets formerly owned by VeriTeQ Corporation in November 2015 and Femiline AB in November 2017 and business acquisitions of Establishment Labs Brasil Productos para Saude Ltda. in January 2016, European Distribution Center Motiva BVBA in March 2016 and Motiva Implants France in September 2016 (see Note 11). Finite-lived intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful lives based on expected future benefit.
In addition to the intangibles acquired, the Company capitalized certain patent and license rights as identified intangibles based on patent and license rights agreements entered into over the past several years. Additionally, the Company capitalized certain software development costs associated with its development of a manufacturing software module, which the Company began amortizing in fiscal 2017 upon implementation of the software.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2017 were as follows:

The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate to us that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We completed the required impairment review at the end of fiscal 2016 and 2017 and concluded that there were no impairments.
5.      Fair Value Measurements
The carrying value of the Company’s cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term notes payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these items. Based on the borrowing rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and consideration of default and credit risk, the carrying value of the related-party notes payable approximates its fair value. Warrants and put and call options that qualify for liability treatment are carried at fair value and re-measured at each reporting period.
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The fair value hierarchy defines a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:
Level I    Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level II    Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level I that are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level III    Uno bservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity for the related assets or liabilities.
The categorization of a financial instrument within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair value measurement of the put and call option liabilities, the warrant liability and contingent consideration related to the business acquisition completed in fiscal 2017 is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.
At December 31, 2016, the Company estimated the fair value of the warrant liability using a Black-Scholes valuation model. Key assumptions including the probabilities of settlement scenarios, enterprise value, time to liquidity, risk-free interest rates and volatility. The term was based on the remaining contractual term on the measurement date. The risk-free interest rates used in the model were based on U.S. Treasury bill rates for securities equal to the remaining term on the measurement date. The volatility was based on an index of peer companies with a term equal to the remaining term on the measurement date. The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s expectation that it will not declare dividends for the foreseeable future.
The liability to issue shares to EDC Motiva BVBA was based on the fair market value of the 18,000 ordinary shares that were required to be issued in connection with the EDC acquisition on each measurement date, which was determined to be $5.50 per share as of March 10, 2016 based on a valuation of the enterprise determined using a discounted cash flow methodology. The Company issued the 18,000 shares to the former shareholder in September 2015, and accordingly, the balance of the liability to issue shares to EDC was zero as of December 31, 2016. The EDC put option liability to sell those same 18,000 shares back to the Company in July 2017 was valued using a probability weighted Black-Scholes model, which determined the fair value of the shares to be $4.11 and $8.28 per share as of March 10, 2016 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The CPH TU, LP, or CPH, put option liability was calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model using subjective assumptions based on the remaining term until the maturity date, including a risk-free rate of 10%, as well as the probability of the put option being exercised prior to the maturity date. The Perceptive put option liability was calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model using subjective assumptions based on the remaining term until the maturity date, including a risk-free rate of 10%, as well as the probability of the put option being exercised prior to the maturity date.
The Company estimated the fair value of the Perceptive put option and the Perceptive warrant liability using a Monte-Carlo simulation model. Key assumptions using a Monte-Carlo simulation model include the probabilities of settlement scenarios, enterprise value, time to liquidity, risk-free interest rates and volatility. The estimates of fair value for these instruments are based, in part, on subjective assumptions and could differ materially in the future. Generally, increases or decreases in the fair value of the underlying share would result in a directionally similar impact in the fair value measurement of these liabilities.
In August, 2017 the Company entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders (see Note 6). The Company determined that the Madryn Credit Agreement contained put options related to early redemption mandatory prepayment terms in case of change in control or an event of default and a call option related to voluntary repayment option. The Company valued these put options and the call option and allocated a fair value of $15.1 million for these identified embedded derivatives as a debt discount on the original commitment date. An additional $5.0 million debt discount was recorded on respective borrowing dates when the Company met the required milestones and borrowed an additional $10.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company revalued the options as of each reporting period, and recorded the change in the fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense.
Valuation of the embedded derivatives is complex and requires interest rate simulation, estimating the resultant bond valuation and the resultant pay-off to the option holder. The Company estimated the fair value of the embedded redemption options using the Binomial Lattice Model which is based on generalized binomial option pricing formula. The Binomial Option Pricing Model allows for the possibility of exercise before the end of the option’s life and considers future interest rates, volatility and other data with regards to the Company’s credit rating and credit spread.

On November 17, 2017, the Company and Femiline AB and Johan Anderson, or the Seller, entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets from the Seller. The assets purchased included all existing inventory previously sold by the Company to the Seller, all customer relationships and a covenant not to compete. The aggregate purchase price for the assets purchased was 100,000 Class A Ordinary shares of the Company, contingently issuable upon achievement of specific milestones. Based on the valuation of the Company’s shares performed by a valuation specialist, the contingently issuable shares had an aggregate value of $1.0 million calculated as a product of contingently issuable shares and estimated fair value per share (see Note 11). As the ordinary shares are not publicly traded, the Company must estimate their fair value. The fair value of ordinary shares was determined on a periodic basis by the Company’s Board of Directors, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm.
In order to assess the fair value of our ordinary stock, our business enterprise value, or BEV, is determined and then allocated to each element of our capital structure (ordinary shares, warrants and options). Our BEV is estimated using the income approach and the market approach. The discounted cash flow method, or DCF, estimates the enterprise value based on the estimated present value of future net cash flows the business is expected to generate over a forecasted period and an estimate of the present value of cash flows beyond that period, which is referred to as terminal value. The estimated present value is calculated using a discount rate known as the weighted average cost of capital, which accounts for the time value of money and the appropriate degree of risks inherent in the business. Under the market approach, the enterprise value is based on the multiples of comparable companies and transactions. The BEV is allocated using probability-weighted expected return method, or PWERM, which estimates the fair value of common shares based on an analysis of future values for the enterprise assuming various future outcomes.
As of December 31, 2017, the short term and long term portions of contingent consideration liability is included in “Other liabilities, short term” and “Other liabilities, long term”, respectively.
The estimates are based, in part, on subjective assumptions and could differ materially in the future.

During the periods presented, the Company has not changed the manner in which it values liabilities that are measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs. The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers within the hierarchy during the years ended December 31, 2016 or December 31, 2017 .
The fair value of the debt conversion feature liability includes the estimated volatility and risk free rate.  The higher/lower the estimated volatility, the higher/lower the value of the debt conversion feature liability. The higher/lower the risk free interest rate, the higher/lower the value of the debt conversion feature liability.

Notes Payable Related Party
In August 2015, the Company entered into agreements with all of the Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shareholders to exchange their outstanding shares and accumulated dividends for notes payable with a principal balance of $4.2 million . Per the original agreement, the notes bear interest at a simple rate of 7% per annum with the interest payments due annually starting March 30, 2017 and a note maturity date of March 31, 2020. Annual payments are due based on achievement of certain annual sales milestones beginning in March 2017. In March, 2017, the Company modified the agreement to defer the interest payments for an additional period, which will be thirty days after the Company successfully completes its planned IPO. Upon the effectiveness of an IPO, the notes will become due and payable in full. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2017 , the Company recorded interest expense of $0.3 million and $0.3 million , respectively, to accrue for interest due on the notes. The Company recorded notes payable related party on the balance sheet as follows:

Related Party Convertible Notes Payable
In August 2015, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, or the Note Agreement or the Notes, with CPH, a primary shareholder, to borrow up to $15.0 million. The Notes issued pursuant to the agreement bore interest at a simple rate of 10% per annum.
In January and July 2016, the Company amended the Note Agreement to increase the aggregate borrowing limit to $18.0 million and $19.8 million, respectively. In September 2016, the Company entered into an amended agreement with CPH to terminate the warrants originally issued in connection with the Notes, fix the conversion rate, and extend the maturity date.
Unless the Notes were converted by their terms, the Notes would have matured on the “deemed repayment date,” which means the earlier of (i) the repayment date; (ii) the consummation of a “liquidity event”, which includes an IPO, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, and certain transactions whereby more than 50% of the Company’s equity interests are sold or transferred; or (iii) the date on which the maturity of the obligations under the Notes has been accelerated by CPH after the occurrence of an event of default, provided, however, in no event may the Notes mature prior to payment in full of the Perceptive Credit Holdings, L.P., first lien obligations, or due to an event under parts (i) or (ii) above prior to March 16, 2020.
The Notes contained usual and customary events of default upon the occurrence of certain events, such as nonpayment of amounts due under the credit agreement, violation of the restrictive covenants, violation of other contractual provisions, or a material adverse change in its business. The Notes also contained cross default provisions such that if the Company is in default under other credit agreements such that the principal amounts of those agreements can be accelerated, the Notes may also be determined to be in default. The Notes included customary administrative covenants, including a prohibition on declaring dividends, and includes certain financial maintenance and operating related covenants.
As of December 31, 2016 , the Company did not meet certain financial covenants under the Perceptive credit agreement and, as such, recorded the Perceptive debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Further, due to the cross default provisions present in the CPH debt, the Company also classified the CPH Related Party Convertible Notes as current on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016.
The first closing of $10.0 million occurred in August 2015, the second closing of $3.0 million occurred in January

For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


2016, the third closing of $5.0 million occurred in March 2016 and the fourth closing of $1.8 million occurred in July 2016. At December 31, 2016 , accrued interest for these Notes totaled $4.4 million . In September 2016, the Company and CPH entered into an amendment to the Note Agreement under which the outstanding principal and interest became convertible into ordinary shares at the option of CPH at any time based on a fixed ratio of $3.99 per share for the outstanding principal and $4.9143 per share for the outstanding interest. The Company determined the fair value of the conversion option to be $0.5 million, which was recorded as a debt discount to the Notes and within additional paid-in capital. The Company determined that the conversion option did not meet the definition of a derivative and accordingly it was not bifurcated. The debt discount was being amortized over the term of the Notes. The discount to Notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in the debt instrument was based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying ordinary shares at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the Note.
In connection with the Notes, the Company issued warrants for the purchase of ordinary shares to CPH and to Rockport Ventures, the placement agent. The estimated fair value of the warrants issued in August 2015 was determined to be $1.1 million, which was recorded as a debt discount and was being amortized using the effective interest rate method over the term of the Notes (see Note 9).
In August 2015, the first tranche of the Note financing was completed for $10.0 million, with a future close of $5.0 million to be completed within 180 days. The right to participate in a future closing is a liability-classified call option tranche liability, which was determined to be a freestanding financial instrument because they are freely transferable and separately exercisable. The Company determined the fair value of this call option was $24,000, which was recorded as a debt discount to the Notes. At the end of each reporting period, the Company has determined the fair value of the future tranche liability, and recorded any changes in fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense. At the expiration of the option period on March 31, 2016 when the final tranche was funded, the Company recorded the change in fair value, and de-recognized the tranche liability upon closing.
The Company also determined that the Note Agreement contained several put options related to liquidity events or an event of default. The Company valued these put options, and allocated the fair value of $0.1 million for these identified embedded derivatives as a debt discount on the original commitment date in August 2015. The Company revalued the put options as of each reporting period, and recorded the change in the fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense (see Note 5). The Company also incurred legal expenses of $0.1 million, which were recorded as a debt discount and were being amortized over the term of the Notes.
January 2016 Amendment
In January 2016, the Company entered into an amended Note Agreement to borrow an additional $3.0 million. In accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt: Modifications and Extinguishments , the Company has determined that the increase in the borrowing limit represented a substantial change to the debt agreement resulting in an extinguishment of the original debt agreement. Accordingly, the Company has derecognized the unamortized debt discount of $2.1 million outstanding as of December 31, 2015. Because the Notes were entered into with a related party, the Company has recorded the extinguishment as a capital transaction, and has recorded the derecognized amounts in equity in the consolidated balance sheet during the first quarter of fiscal 2016.
At the time of the $3.0 million tranche closing in January 2016, the Company issued new warrants to the debt holders. The estimated fair value of the warrants issued in January 2016 was determined to be $0.4 million, which was recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the Notes. After allocating $0.4 million to the warrants, the Company determined the fair value of the conversion option to be $1.2 million, which was recorded as a debt discount to the Notes and within additional paid-in capital. The debt discount was being amortized over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method.
At the time of the $5.0 million tranche closing in March 2016, the Company issued new warrants to the debt holders and the placement agent. The estimated fair value of the warrants issued in March 2016 was determined to be $0.8 million, which was recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the Notes. After allocating $0.8 million to the warrants, the Company determined the fair value of the conversion option to be $0.8 million, which was recorded as a debt discount to the Notes and within additional paid-in capital. The debt discount was being amortized over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method.

In connection with the note agreement, the Company paid Rockport Ventures a cash placement fee of 6% of the principal amount borrowed, up to $15.0 million in principal. In conjunction with the first closing in August 2015, the Company paid Rockport Ventures $0.6 million. These fees were recorded as a debt discount, which was being amortized over the debt repayment period.
During the year ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2017 , the Company recorded amortization of $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively, of debt discount related to the Note Agreement with CPH in the consolidated statement of operations as interest expense.
July 2016 Amendment
In July 2016, the Company entered into an amended Note Agreement to borrow an additional $1.8 million. In accordance with ASC 470-50, the Company determined that the increase in the borrowing limit represented a substantial change to the debt agreement resulting in an extinguishment of the original debt agreement. Accordingly, the Company has derecognized the unamortized debt discount of $2.9 million outstanding as of the amendment date. Because the Notes were entered into with a related party, the Company recorded the extinguishment as a capital transaction, and recorded the derecognized amounts in equity in the consolidated balance sheet during the third quarter of 2016. At the time of the amendment, the Company evaluated the Notes to determine if there was a beneficial conversion feature, and determined the fair value of the conversion option to be $0.6 million, which was recorded as a debt discount to the Notes and within additional paid-in capital. The debt discount was being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Notes.
September 2016 Amendment
In September 2016, the Company and CPH entered into an amendment to the Note Agreement to terminate the warrants originally issued in connection with the Notes and fix the conversion rate on the principal amounts outstanding to a price of $3.99 per share and the interest at $4.9143 per share, and extended the maturity date of the notes to March 2020. In accordance with ASC 470-50, the Company determined that change to the conversion ratio and the termination of the warrants represented a substantial change to the debt agreement resulting in an extinguishment of the original debt agreement. Accordingly, the Company extinguished the $1.8 million warrant liability on the date of termination, as well as the outstanding unamortized debt discount of $0.5 million. Because the transaction was a related party, the Company recorded the extinguishment as a capital transaction and recorded the amounts in equity in the consolidated balance sheet during the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
During the year ended December 31, 2016 , the Company recorded a total of $5.5 million in extinguishment of debt discounts related to various amendments of the Note Agreement, as described above. The Company recorded the Notes as a “Related party convertible notes payable, including accrued interest” on the balance sheet as follows:

On August 24, 2017, CPH elected to convert the principal and the accrued interest outstanding under the Notes into 5,869,417 shares of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares. The related beneficial conversion feature liability was amortized into non-cash interest expense while the CPH put option liability expired upon the conversion of the notes.
There is no outstanding balance under the Notes as of December 31, 2017 .

Perceptive Debt
In September 2016, the Company entered into a credit agreement and guaranty with Perceptive Credit Holdings, LP., or Perceptive. The note bore interest of 11% per annum, plus the greater of (i) 1% or (ii) the one-month LIBOR rate, and required no payment of principal for the first twelve months after the closing date. Thereafter, the Company was responsible for making monthly principal payments of $0.2 million plus accrued interest through the maturity date of September 28, 2019. If the Company prepayed the borrowings prior to the maturity date, it would have been responsible for paying a prepayment premium of 5% if the prepayment occurs within 12 months of the initial borrowing date, and 3% if the prepayment occurs after the first anniversary through the stated maturity date.
In connection with this credit agreement, the Company borrowed $15.0 million, and issued fully-vested warrants to purchase 566,500 ordinary shares, which were exercisable for a period of five years. In the event the Company completed a qualified IPO on or before July 31, 2017, the exercise price of the warrants would have been automatically adjusted to equal 50% of the per-share price of the common shares sold in the offering. If the warrant holder exercises the warrant prior to July 31, 2017, the exercise price shall be $3.99 per share. If an IPO had not been completed by July 31, 2017, the exercise price would become $0.01 per share. The initial public offering was not completed by July 31, 2017, and therefore the exercise price became $0.01 per share on August 1, 2017.
If the Company was in default on the warrant agreement, the Company would have been been obligated to redeem the warrant shares based on the average fair market value of the warrant shares for the preceding 15 days prior to the event of default. The Company classified the fair value of these warrants as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet because of a variable settlement provision that cause them to not be indexed to the Company’s own shares. At the end of each reporting period, changes in estimated fair value during the period were recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as other income or expense. The Company uses the a Monte-Carlo valuation model to determine the fair value of the warrants, which it determined to be $1.5 million on the grant date. The Company also determined that the credit agreement contained an embedded derivative put option in the case of a liquidity event, which has been recorded as a $1.1 million debt discount on the commitment date. The debt discounts were amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the credit agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded amortization of $0.3 million of debt discount in the consolidated statement of operations as interest expense.
In connection with the signing of the credit agreement, the Company paid a nonrefundable upfront fee of $0.2 million.
The agreement contained usual and customary events of default upon the occurrence of certain events, such as nonpayment of amounts due under the credit agreement, violation of the restrictive covenants, violation of other contractual provisions, or a material adverse change in its business. The agreement included customary administrative covenants, including a prohibition on declaring dividends, and included certain financial maintenance and operating related covenants. As of December 31, 2016, the Company did not meet certain financial covenants, and obtained a waiver from Perceptive through February 10, 2017 (the date of the waiver and first amendment). Subsequent to February 10, 2017, the Company continued to be in default with the Perceptive debt. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2016, the Company has recorded the Perceptive debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Under a condition of default, the interest rate on the credit agreement would have been increased from 11% per annum to 15% per annum during the period in which the Company were in default.

In February 2017, the Company amended the credit agreement and guaranty with Perceptive in order to (1) remove the requirement to repay 30% of the Net Cash Proceeds (as defined in the credit agreement and guaranty) if the Company’s IPO secured gross proceeds of $40 million or more, (2) waive any defaults in effect up to and including the date of the amendment and (3) certain other changes. The Company received a waiver of any default condition from Perceptive through February 10, 2017.
In August 2017, the obligations due under the credit agreement were fully repaid. The related Perceptive put option liability was extinguished upon the repayment date. The Company repurchased 358,783 warrants for $4.7 million of which $2.3 million is still outstanding as of December 31, 2017. The outstanding amount is due to be paid August 1, 2019 and is included in “Other liabilities, long-term”.
In August 2017, the Company also entered into an Assignment Agreement with Madryn and Perceptive in connection with the repayment of the principal outstanding under the Perceptive credit agreement. Under this agreement, Perceptive assigned to Madryn 207,716 warrants with an exercise price of $0.01 in exchange for $2.4 million. Madryn paid this amount directly to Perceptive and was issued 207,716 shares of Series B ordinary stock by the Company on August 24, 2017 with a deemed fair value of $11.55 per share upon the exercise of the warrants.
Notes Payable, Short-term
In December 2016, the Company entered into a note agreement to borrow $0.2 million from executive officer of the Company, this note remained outstanding as of December 31, 2016. The balance was repaid in 2017.

These promissory notes were repaid by the Company in January 2017 and April 2017.
In April 2017, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with Banco Davivenda Costa Rica S.A. in an aggregate principal amount of $2.0 million to be used for the purchase of raw materials and components. The Company closed this facility in the second quarter of 2017 and does not have any outstanding balance on this facility as of December 31, 2017 .
Liability to Repurchase Shares
In September 2016, the Company entered into a share repurchase agreement with Global Silicone SRL for the repurchase of 813,140 ordinary shares of the Company owned by Global Silicone SRL in exchange for $3.7 million. The Company has recorded the liability of $3.7 million as of September 30, 2016 on the consolidated balance sheet upon the return of the share certificate to the Company. In October 2016, the Company paid $2.0 million to Global Silicone to repurchase 440,040 shares. As of December 31, 2016, the Company recorded a liability of $1.7 million for the remaining obligation to repurchase the remaining 373,100 shares, which was paid in April 2017.

Madryn Debt
On August 24, 2017 the Company entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The Madryn Credit Agreement provides for a credit facility for a maximum principal amount of $55.0 million , $30.0 million (Term A) of which became available upon signing. The final maturity date under the Madryn Credit Agreement is June 30, 2023.
The availability of the additional Term B and Term C commitments under the Madryn Credit Agreement, which are for an aggregate principal amount of up to $25 million, are subject to the Company achieving certain revenue milestones. The Company met some of these milestones and borrowed an additional $5.0 million (Term B-1) on October 31, 2017 and $5.0 million (Term B-2) on December 15, 2017 bringing up the total outstanding principal balance to $40.0 million as of December 31, 2017. An additional $5.0 million (Term B-3) and $10.0 million (Term C) may become available on M arch 29, 2018 and June 30, 2020, respectively, if the required milestones for each tranche are achieved. The Company has not yet met the required milestones for the Term B-3 or Term C tranche as of the date of the issuance of these financial statements. The availability of each tranche is also conditioned on the Company having advanced the maximum loan amount under each prior tranche.
In connection with the Madryn Credit Agreement, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, granted a security interest in substantially all of the property of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, including, without limitation, intellectual property, and pledges of certain stock of the Brazilian subsidiary and the Belgian subsidiary, subject to certain excluded collateral exceptions.
Borrowings under the Madryn Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to 3-month LIBOR plus 11.0% per annum provided that no default has occurred. In an event of a default, the interest would increase by an additional 4% per annum. The Company incurred $1.4 million in interest expense in connection with Madryn Credit Agreement in fiscal 2017. No principal payments are due until 2021. Eight quarterly payments of 12.5% of the principal amounts borrowed under each tranche are due beginning September 30, 2021 and each quarter end through and including June 30, 2023.
The Company also determined that the Madryn Credit Agreement contained put options which are mandatory repayment provisions related to liquidity events or an event of default and a call option related to voluntary repayment option. The Company valued these put options and the call option, and allocated a fair value of $15.1 million for these identified embedded derivatives as a debt discount on the original commitment date in August 2017. An additional $5.0 million debt discount was recorded on respective borrowing dates when the Company met the required milestones and borrowed an additional $10.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company revalues the options as of each reporting period, and records the change in the fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense (see Note 5). The Company also incurred legal expenses of $1.3 million , which were recorded as a debt discount and are being amortized over the term of the Madryn Credit Agreement.
The Madryn Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make certain investments, make restricted payments, enter into or undertake certain liquidations, mergers, consolidations or acquisitions and dispose of assets or subsidiaries. In addition, the Madryn Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain minimum revenues and liquidity.
In January 2018, management made an assessment that the Company would likely default on the Madryn Credit Agreement due to its investment in our Brazilian subsidiary approaching the $5.0 million limit. The Company informed Madryn and the syndicate of lenders, or the Lenders, of the potential technical default event and started the process to obtain a forbearance agreement. The Company initially defaulted on the Madryn Credit Agreement on January 19, 2018 when it failed to put a Qualifying Control Agreement in place for certain bank deposit accounts and subsequently on February 28, 2018 when its investment in its Brazilian subsidiary exceeded the allowable $5.0 million threshold permitted under the Madryn Credit Agreement. As a result, on March 23, 2018 and subsequently on April 30, 2018, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lenders, where the Lenders agreed to forebear from exercising certain rights and remedies through May 18, 2018 arising from certain disclosure and other technical defaults under the Madryn Credit Agreement, including those mentioned above with respect to our Brazilian subsidiary. In accordance with certain cure rights under the Madryn Credit Agreement and the forbearance agreement terms, the Company will use its best efforts to raise no less than $20.0 million of cash proceeds from equity issuances.  Furthermore, the forbearance agreement permits the limit of the amount of investment in the Brazilian subsidiary not to exceed an additional

$5.0 million, and maintain the liquidity in accounts for which Madryn received a qualifying control agreement of no less than $2.0 million, while the Company provides periodic reports on all investments in the Brazilian subsidiary. The forbearance agreement also forbears the lenders from exercising certain rights and remedies in the event of our failure to provide the report and opinion of an independent certified public accountant free from any “going concern” qualifications for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.
Accordingly, the Company recorded the Madryn debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2017 , the Company recorded Madryn debt on the balance sheet as follows:

Concurrently, the Company also granted Madryn the right to purchase up to 357,143 shares of Series F ordinary stock for $5.0 million at the lower of $14.00 per share or 85% of the next offering. Madryn purchased the shares in multiple closings in August and October 2017 (see Note 8).
In addition, the Company granted Madryn the right to purchase up to $2.0 million of shares issued by the Company in the next succeeding eligible equity investment in the Company. Under this agreement, to the extent the Company redeems or repurchases any shares from any holder, the Company shall offer to resell one half of the repurchased shares to Madryn at the same price paid by the Company to purchase or retire the shares. To the extent Madryn elects to purchase the repurchased shares, the amount paid by Madryn shall reduce the amount of investment available in the next eligible equity investment. The Company has not repurchased shares since August 2017.

Indemnification
The Company enters into standard indemnification arrangements in the ordinary course of business. Pursuant to these arrangements, the Company indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to reimburse the indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, in connection with any trade secret, copyright, patent or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third-party with respect to the Company’s technology. The term of these indemnification agreements is generally perpetual. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these agreements is not determinable because it involves claims that may be made against the Company in the future, but have not yet been made.
The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers that may require the Company to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of the individual.
The Company has not incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. No liability associated with such indemnifications has been recorded to date.

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares
In August 2015, all 7,364 outstanding Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shares and accumulated dividends were exchanged for promissory notes issued by the Company to the former Class Z shareholders. The Company recorded the exchange as a reduction in outstanding preferred shares and an increase in “Notes payable related party, including accrued interest” on the consolidated balance sheet. The purchase of the outstanding preferred shares was accounted for as a treasury shares transaction, under which the repurchased shares were considered issued but not outstanding.
As of December 31, 2016 , no Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shares were outstanding. The Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shares were retired in May 2017.

Redemption. The redeemable convertible preferred shares are redeemable at par value plus unpaid dividends upon a vote of the Company’s Board of Directors at any time.
Voting. The redeemable convertible preferred shares do not have the right to vote on any matters.
Dividends. The holders of the Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shares are entitled to receive, whether or not declared by the Board of Directors, a cumulative cash dividend on each outstanding redeemable convertible preferred share. The dividend rate will be 10% on the share par value for each period which dividends have not been paid and 7.5% for the period in which payments have been approved. Such dividends shall be payable only when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors.
Liquidation. Upon liquidation, the Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shareholders are entitled to receive an equal

share in the distribution of surplus assets, after payment has been made to certain holders of ordinary shares equal to the par value plus simple interest of 8% per annum.
Conversion. Prior to the exchange for a note payable, the holders of the shares of Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shares were permitted to exchange their shares for ordinary shares after April 1, 2018. The conversion rate for the exchange was to be based on a conversion ratio to be determined on the conversion date based on the valuation of the shares at that time.
Ordinary Shares
As of December 31, 2016 and 2017 , 7,118,753 and 15,743,705 shares, respectively, of ordinary shares were issued and 6,305,613 and 14,522,495 shares, respectively, were outstanding.

This liability-classified put option has been determined to be a freestanding financial instrument because it is freely transferable and separately exercisable. The Company recorded an initial fair value of $0.1 million for the put option as a part of the purchase price consideration. The Company recorded any change in fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense. As of December 31, 3016, the Company had recorded a put option liability of $36,000 on its consolidated balance sheets for this obligation. The put option expired in July 2017.

Under this agreement, Perceptive assigned to Madryn 207,716 warrants with an exercise price of $0.01 in exchange for $2.4 million. Madryn paid this amount directly to Perceptive and was issued 207,716 shares of Series B ordinary stock by the Company on August 24, 2017 with a deemed fair value of $11.55 per share upon the exercise of the warrants.
In August 2017, Madryn purchased 73,560 Class A ordinary shares at $8.84 per share and 93,580 Class A ordinary shares at $12.50 per shares from other shareholders.

Dividends. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by its Board of Directors out of legally available funds. In accordance with the memorandum and articles of association, upon the declaration and payment of consideration on Class Z preferred shares, certain holders of 2,173,663 ordinary shares had a preferential right to the same amount of consideration. In August 2015 in connection with the repurchase of Class Z preferred shares in exchange for a note payable, the Company accrued $0.6 million for consideration due to these certain ordinary shareholders in accordance with the right in effect at the time. The Company recorded this as an accrued liability in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2015 the earned dividends had not been paid out to shareholders and was recorded as a accrued dividend payable on the consolidated balance sheet. In October 2016, the Company amended its memorandum and articles of association to remove the preferential rights of certain ordinary shareholders to receive distributions on their ordinary shares in advance of the preferred shares. As a result of the amendment to the articles of association, the Company has de-recognized the accrued dividend payable on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016. Because the transaction was between related parties, the Company has recorded the reversal as a capital transaction through additional paid-in-capital on the

9.      Warrants
CPH
In connection with the Notes issued to CPH in August 2015, the Company agreed to issue warrants to purchase ordinary shares to CPH and to Rockport Ventures, the placement agent for the Notes. In September 2016, the Company entered into an amended Note Agreement with CPH, under which the outstanding warrants were canceled (see Note 6).
For CPH, the number of shares for which the warrant may have been exercised was determined by dividing an amount equal to 17.5% of the principal on each borrowing date by a pre-determined ratio of the fully diluted shares outstanding on the date of conversion. The warrants were immediately exercisable and would have expired 10 years from the original issuance date. For Rockport Ventures, the number of shares for which the warrant may have been exercised was determined by dividing an amount equal to 3% of the principal on each borrowing date for up to $15.0 million borrowed by a pre-determined ratio of the fully diluted shares outstanding on the date of conversion. The Rockport Ventures warrants could also be “net-exercised” for no consideration and settled in Class B Ordinary Shares. The Rockport Ventures warrants were immediately exercisable and will expire seven years from the original issuance date.
In March 2017, the Rockport Warrants were canceled and new warrants for the purchase of 145,000 Class B ordinary shares were issued to parties related to Rockport Ventures, with a fixed exercise price of $3.80 per share.
As of December 31, 2016, the Company has classified the fair value of these warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet due to the existence of certain cash settlement features that are not within the sole control of the Company and variable settlement provision that cause them to not be indexed to the Company’s own shares.
The value of the CPH warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model which approximates a Lattice valuation model, and at issuance, the Company initially recorded the fair value of the warrants as a debt discount against the related loan balance in its consolidated balance sheet. The recorded value of the warrants is being amortized to interest expense over the estimated repayment term of the related loans. The value of the Rockport Ventures warrants was estimated using the Black Sholes valuation model which approximates a Lattice valuation model, and at issuance, the Company initially recorded the fair value of the warrants as a debt offering cost against the related loan balance in its balance sheet. The recorded value of the warrants is being amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method over the term of the related loans.
Perceptive
In September 2016, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Perceptive under which it granted 566,500 warrants to purchase ordinary shares. The Company classified the fair value of these warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet due to the existence of certain variable settlement provision that caused them to not be indexed to the Company’s own shares. The value of the Perceptive warrants was estimated using a Monte-Carlo valuation model and at issuance, the Company initially recorded the $1.5 million fair value of the warrants as a debt discount against the related loan balance in its consolidated balance sheets.

F-37

For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of the CPH and Rockport warrants which approximates a Lattice valuation model, which uses assumptions regarding the term, volatility and risk free rate. The term was based on the remaining contractual term on the measurement date. The risk free rate was based on a U.S. Treasury bill with a term equal to the remaining contractual term. The volatility was based on a peer index of comparable companies with the term set to the remaining contractual term on the measurement date. The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s expectation that it will not declare dividends for the foreseeable future.
As of December 31, 2016 , the 726,074 warrants to purchase ordinary shares were outstanding and exercisable:

In August 2017, the Company also entered into an Assignment Agreement with Madryn and Perceptive in connection with the repayment of the principal outstanding under the Perceptive credit agreement. Under this agreement, Perceptive assigned to Madryn 207,716 warrants with an exercise price of $0.01 in exchange for $2.4 million. Madryn paid this amount directly to Perceptive and was issued 207,716 shares of Series B ordinary stock by the Company on August 24, 2017 with a deemed fair value of $11.55 per share upon the exercise of the warrants.
Also in August 2017, the obligations due under the Perceptive credit agreement were fully repaid. The Company repurchased 358,783 warrants for $4.7 million of which $2.3 million is still outstanding as of December 31, 2017. The outstanding amount is due to be paid August 1, 2019 and is included in “Other liabilities, long-term”.

Instruments Of Certain Nonpublic Entities And Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests With A Scope Exception. As a result, certain warrants that were previously classified as a liability due to an existence of down round features became qualified to be classified as equity. The adoption of this standard resulted in $1.0 million reclassification of warrant liability into additional paid in capital as of July 1, 2017.
10.      Share-Based Compensation
In December 2015, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, or 2015 Plan. Under the 2015 Plan, the Company may grant share options, equity appreciation rights, and restricted shares and restricted share units. Pursuant to the 2015 Plan, the Company has granted restricted stock awards, or RSAs, and stock options to Board of Directors, employees and consultants.
The 2015 Plan, as amended, reserves 2,250,000 Class A shares for issuance. If an award granted under the 2015 Plan expires, terminates, is unexercised, or is forfeited, or if any shares are surrendered in connection with an incentive award, the shares subject to such award and the surrendered shares will become available for further awards under the 2015 Plan.
At December 31, the Company recorded the following share-based compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock awards:

For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


At December 31, 2017, unrecognized compensation expense was $0.3 million related to stock options granted to employees and directors and $1.6 million related to stock options granted to consultants. The weighted-average period over which such compensation expense will be recognized is 2.9 years.
Stock Options Granted to Employees
Share-based compensation expense for employees is based on the grant date fair value. The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of four years. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017, the Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.1 million , respectively, of stock-based compensation expense for stock options granted to employees.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value options granted to employees and consultants, which requires the use of highly subjective assumptions to determine the fair value of share-based awards. The assumptions used in the Company’s option-pricing model represent management’s best estimates. These estimates are complex, involve a number of variables, uncertainties and assumptions and the application of management’s judgment. If factors change and different assumptions are used, the Company’s share-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. The assumptions and estimates that the Company uses in the Black-Scholes model are as follows:
Fair Value of Common Shares. As the ordinary shares are not publicly traded, the Company must estimate their fair value. The fair value of ordinary shares was determined on a periodic basis by the Company’s Board of Directors, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm.   The Board of Directors intended all options granted to be exercisable at a price per share not less than the estimated per share fair value of the stock underlying those options on the date of grant.
Risk-Free Interest Rate. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation model on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term equivalent to that of the term of the options for each option group on the measurement date.
Term. For employee stock options, the expected term represents the period that the Company’s share-based awards are expected to be outstanding. Because of the limitations on the sale or transfer of the Company’s stock as a privately held company, the Company does not believe its historical exercise pattern is indicative of the pattern it will experience as a publicly traded company. The Company has consequently used the Staff Accounting Bulletin 110, or SAB 110, simplified method to calculate the expected term of employee stock options, which is the average of the contractual term and vesting period. The Company plans to continue to use the SAB 110 simplified method until it has sufficient trading history as a publicly traded company. For consultant stock options, the term used is equal to the remaining contractual term on the measurement date.
Volatility. The Company determines the price volatility based on the historical volatilities of industry peers as it has no trading history for its stock. Industry peers consist of several public companies in the medical device industry with comparable characteristics, including revenue growth, operating model and working capital requirements. The Company intends to continue to consistently apply this process using the same or a similar peer group of public companies until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of its own stock becomes available, or unless circumstances change such that the identified peer companies are no longer similar, in which case other suitable peer companies whose common stock prices are publicly available would be utilized in the calculation. The volatility is calculated based on the term on the measurement date.
Dividend Yield. The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s current expectations about its anticipated dividend policy. The Company has no expectation that it will declare dividends on its ordinary shares, and therefore has used an expected dividend yield of zero.

The fair value of RSAs is the grant date market value of the Class A ordinary stock. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense related to RSAs using a straight-line method over the vesting term of the awards. The fair value of RSAs that vested during fiscal 2016 and 2017 was $2.1 million and $1.9 million , respectively, which was calculated based on the market value of the Company’s ordinary stock on the applicable date of vesting.
As of December 31, 2017, we had unrecognized share-based compensation cost of approximately $5.0 million associated with unvested restricted stock awards. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.6 years.
11.      Business Combinations
Brazil
In January 2016, the Company acquired all of the outstanding and issued shares of RD&S Produtos Para Saude Ltda-EPP, a Brazilian private company in exchange for $0.2 million in cash. The purchase enabled the Company to begin distribution of its products in Brazil. In connection with the purchase, the Company has recorded $0.1 million as a regulatory application intangible asset, and $0.1 million as goodwill.
European Distribution Center Motiva BVBA
In March 2016, the Company acquired all of the outstanding and issued shares of EDC Motiva BVBA in exchange for 18,000 Class A ordinary shares. Prior to the exchange, EDC Motiva BVBA had provided warehouse and logistics services to the Company under distribution agreements entered into in 2012. Along with the shares, the Company also granted a put right to the former shareholder to sell the 18,000 shares issued in the acquisition back to the Company between July 1 and July 15, 2017 for $0.25 million in the case that an initial public offering has not been consummated prior to July 1, 2017. This liability-classified put option has been determined to be a freestanding financial instrument because it is freely transferable and separately exercisable. The Company recorded an initial fair value of $0.1 million for the put option as a part of the purchase price consideration. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the expiration of the option or its exercise. The Company records any change in fair value in the consolidated statements of operations as other income or expense. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had recorded a put option liability of $36,000 on its consolidated balance sheets for this obligation.
The Company also entered into an arrangement with the former shareholder to provide services for a period of one year following the acquisition, which was recorded as a part of the purchase price consideration as it was fully non-cancellable and non-refundable on the date of acquisition. The Company also issued a credit to the distributor in the

Total assets acquired and liabilities assumed was $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The purchase enabled the Company to begin direct distribution of its products in France. In connection with the purchase, the Company has recorded $0.2 million as a regulatory application intangible asset and $28,000 as goodwill.
Sweden
On November 17, 2017, the Company and Femiline AB and Johan Anderson, or the Seller, entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets from the Seller. The assets purchased included all existing inventory previously sold by the Company to the Seller, all customer relationships and a covenant not to compete. The aggregate purchase price for the assets purchased was 100,000 Class A Ordinary shares of the Company, contingently issuable upon achievement of specific milestones. Based on the valuation of the Company’s shares performed by a valuation specialist, the contingently issuable shares had an aggregate value of $1.0 million . The book value of the inventory at the time of the acquisition was approximately $0.7 million, which was revalued on the transaction date to be the estimated selling price less the cost to sell, which increased the fair value of the inventory to approximately $1.5 million.
Concurrently, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement with Novaform Ltd, or Novaform, and Pantelis Ioannou. In April 2015, Novaform had become a distributor for Establishment Labs S.A., wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and subsequently sublicensed its distribution rights to Femiline AB. Under the Separation Agreement, Novaform agreed to relinquish the distribution rights back to the Company for $1.0 million in cash and 35,714 Class A ordinary shares.

Effective December 1, 2017, the Company adopted, on a prospective basis, ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes , which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as non-current on the balance sheet. The adoption of ASU 2015-17 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
As of December 31, 2016 and 2017 , the Company assessed that it is more-likely-than-not that it will not realize its deferred tax assets based on the absence of sufficient positive objective evidence that it would generate sufficient taxable income in its Costa Rica and U.S. tax jurisdictions to realize the deferred tax assets. The Company intends to continue maintaining a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances.
As of December 31, 2017 , the Company has Costa Rica net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3.2 million available to reduce any future taxable income. If not utilized, the net operating loss carryforwards will expire beginning in 2020. Costa Rica net operating losses can be carried forward three years. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had Costa Rica, U.S. and California tax credit carryforwards of approximately $0.1M in total. These credits begin to expire in 2022. However, the California R&D credit can be carried forward indefinitely. As of December 31, 2017 , the Company had U.S. federal, California, Brazil and France net operating losses of approximately $4.4 million, $4.4 million, $5.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The U.S. federal and California net operating losses will expire December 31, 2035 . Brazil and France net operating losses can be carried forward indefinitely. Federal and California laws impose restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and R&D credit carryforwards in the event of a change in ownership of the Company, which constitutes an “ownership change” as defined by U.S. Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383. The Company has not performed a detailed analysis to determine whether an ownership change under Section 382 and 383 of the Code has previously occurred. As a result, the Company’s ability to utilize existing carryforwards could be substantially restricted.
The Company is incorporated as an international business company with limited liability under International Business Companies Act, 1984 of the British Virgin Islands. As of December 31, 2017 , the Company also conducted business in Costa Rica, Belgium, France, Brazil and the United States and is subject to tax in these jurisdictions. As a result, the Company's worldwide income will be subject to the tax rates in which its income is generated and as such its effective tax rate may fluctuate based on the geographic distribution of its earned income or losses and the applicable tax laws in which those earnings or losses were generated.
Management’s intention is to indefinitely reinvest any undistributed earnings from its subsidiaries. Accordingly, no provision for withholding taxes has been provided nor is it practical to determine the amount of this liability. Upon

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2017


distribution of those earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company will be subject to potential withholding taxes in the above-mentioned jurisdictions.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (formerly FIN 48). ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the Company's income tax return, and provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 the Company has no material uncertain tax positions. The Company does not expect any significant increases or decreases to its unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.
As of December 31, 2017 , the Company is subject to taxation in Costa Rica, Belgium, France, Brazil and the United States and the Company’s fiscal tax years 2012 through 2017 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.
2017 Tax Reform
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or Tax Reform, was signed into legislation. The Tax Reform makes significant changes to the U.S. corporate income tax law including, but not limited to, (1) reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% and (2) requiring a one-time mandatory transition tax on previously deferred foreign earnings of U.S. subsidiaries. Under ASC 740, Income Taxes, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which the new legislation is enacted. In the case of U.S. federal income taxes, the enactment date is the date the bill becomes law. With respect to this legislation, we expect no financial statement impact due to the Company's valuation allowance. The Company performed a re-measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the decrease in the corporate Federal income tax rate from 35% to 21% of $0.6 million with a corresponding decrease to its U.S. valuation allowance of $0.6 million. In addition to the reduction of U.S. federal corporate tax rate, the Company has also considered the impact of the foreign transition tax for which it has estimated that it would not need to accrue any tax provision.
In December 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No.118, or SAB 118, to provide guidance on the application of the Tax Reform when a company does not have necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed in reasonable detail to reflect the effects of the Tax Reform. SAB 118 provides guidance for companies under the three scenarios (1) measurement of certain income tax effects is complete, (2) measurement of certain income tax effect can be reasonably estimated, and (3) measurement of certain income tax effects cannot be reasonably estimated. Companies are to complete the accounting under ASC 740 in regards to the Tax Reform within a measurement period that does not extend one year from the date of enactment. In accordance with SAB 118, companies must reflect the tax effects of the Tax Reform for which the accounting under 740 is complete. If certain income tax effect can be reasonably estimated, then the companies must report provisional amounts in the reporting period in which the companies can determine the reasonable estimate during the measurement period. In the case that certain income tax effects cannot be reasonably estimated, companies do not have to report effects of the Tax Reform. However, they should continue to apply ASC 740 based on the rules before the enactment of the Tax Reform and report any income tax effects in the first reporting period in which reasonable estimates become available.
The final impact of the Tax Reform may differ from the above estimate, possibly materially, due to, among other things, changes in interpretations of the tax guidance, any legislative action to address questions that arise because of the Tax Reform, any changes in accounting standards for income taxes or related interpretations in response to the Tax Reform, or any updates or changes to estimates the company has utilized to calculate the transition impact, including impact from changes to current year earnings estimates and foreign exchange rates of foreign subsidiaries. In accordance with SAB 118, the Company is allowed a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the Tax Act to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. We currently anticipate finalizing and recording any resulting adjustments by year ending December 31, 2018 if necessary.

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares and dilutive ordinary share equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury-share method and the as-if converted method, for convertible securities, if inclusion of these is dilutive .
Because the Company has reported a net loss in all periods presented, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net loss per ordinary share for those periods because including the dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.
The following potentially dilutive securities outstanding at the end of the periods presented have been excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding at December 31:

Between January 2018 and May 10, 2018 , the Board of Directors approved grants of 397,861 shares of stock options.
In January 2018, management made an assessment that the Company would likely default on the Madryn Credit Agreement due to its investment in our Brazilian subsidiary approaching the $5.0 million limit. The Company informed Madryn and the syndicate of lenders, or the Lenders, of the potential technical default event and started the process to obtain a forbearance agreement. The Company initially defaulted on the Madryn Credit Agreement on January 19, 2018 when it failed to put a Qualifying Control Agreement in place for certain bank deposit accounts and subsequently on February 28, 2018 when its investment in its Brazilian subsidiary exceeded the allowable $5.0 million threshold permitted under the Madryn Credit Agreement. As a result, on March 23, 2018 and subsequently on April 30, 2018, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lenders, where the Lenders agreed to forebear from exercising certain rights and remedies through May 18, 2018 arising from certain disclosure and other technical defaults under the Madryn Credit Agreement, including those mentioned above with respect to our Brazilian subsidiary. In accordance with certain cure rights under the Madryn Credit Agreement and the forbearance agreement terms, the Company will use its best efforts to raise no less than $20.0 million of cash proceeds from equity issuances.  Furthermore, the forbearance agreement permits the limit of the amount of investment in the Brazilian subsidiary not to exceed an additional $5.0 million, and maintain the liquidity in accounts for which Madryn received a qualifying control agreement of no less than $2.0 million, while the Company provides periodic reports on all investments in the Brazilian subsidiary. The forbearance agreement also forbears the lenders from exercising certain rights and remedies in the event of our failure to provide the report and opinion of an independent certified public accountant free from any “going concern” qualifications for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. Accordingly, the Company recorded the Madryn debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017. Management is working with the Lenders to amend the Madryn Credit Agreement to remove the restrictive covenants that resulted in the technical defaults which would allow the Company to reclassify the arrangement as long-term.

1.      Formation, Business of the Company and Going Concern
Formation and Business of the Company
Establishment Labs Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) is a global company that manufactures and markets innovative medical devices for aesthetic plastic surgery, reconstructive plastic surgery, and aesthetic dermatology. The Company was established in the British Virgin Islands on October 9, 2013, at which time Establishment Labs, S.A., the Costa Rican manufacturing company, was reincorporated as a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company also has wholly-owned subsidiaries in the United States (JAMM Technologies, Inc. and Motiva USA LLC), Belgium (European Distribution Center Motiva BVBA), Brazil ( Establishment Labs Produtos para Saude Ltda) , France (Motiva Implants France SAS), Sweden (Motiva Nordica AB) and Switzerland (JEN-Vault AG). Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are derived from the sale of silicone breast implants under the brand of Motiva Implants.
The main manufacturing activities are conducted in two manufacturing facilities in Costa Rica. Beginning in 2010, the Company began operating under the Costa Rica free zone regime (Régimen de Zona Franca), which provides for reduced income tax and other tax obligations pursuant to an agreement with the Costa Rican authorities.
The Company’s products are approved for sale in Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Australia and Asia. The Company sells its products internationally through distributors as well as making direct sales to customers.
The Company is actively working on obtaining regulatory approval to commercialize its products in the United States. The Company received approval of an investigational device exemption, or IDE, from the FDA in March 2018 to initiate the Motiva Implant clinical trial in the United States. Enrollment is anticipated to be completed in early 2019.
The Company has been expanding its global operations through a series of acquisitions. In November 2015, the Company purchased certain assets from Magna Equities I, LLC and established its wholly-owned subsidiary, JAMM Technologies, Inc., in the United States. In January 2016, the Company purchased a distribution company in Brazil to support the application to sell its products in Brazil. In March 2016, the Company purchased a storage and distribution company in Belgium to support its continued growth in Europe. In September 2016, the Company purchased a distribution company in France and established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Switzerland. In November 2017, the Company acquired certain assets from Femiline AB and established its wholly-owned subsidiary in Sweden, Motiva Nordica AB.
Going Concern
As of March 31, 2018 , the Company had cash of $6.6 million . During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , the Company incurred a net loss of $6.5 million and used $5.9 million of cash in operations. At March 31, 2018 , the Company had an accumulated deficit of $74.4 million and currently does not expect to experience positive cash flows from operations in the near future. The Company has financed operations to date primarily through private placements of debt and equity securities. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , the Company received $2.0 million from the issuance of class G ordinary shares and exercise of stock options. Subsequent to March 31, 2018 , the Company received $14.6 million from the issuance of Class G and G-1 ordinary shares.
On August 24, 2017 the Company entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, or the Lenders. The Company initially defaulted on the Madryn Credit Agreement during the first quarter of fiscal 2018. As a result, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lenders, where the Lenders agreed to forebear from exercising certain rights and remedies through May 18, 2018 and subsequently through July 3, 2018 arising from certain disclosure and other technical defaults. Accordingly, as the forbearance agreement did not cover a period exceeding twelve months after the date of the annual financial statements, the Company recorded the Madryn debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017. Effective June 15, 2018, Madryn Credit Agreement was amended to remove the restrictive covenants that resulted in the technical defaults which allowed the Company to reclassify the arrangement as long-term as of March 31, 2018.
Management expects the Company to continue to incur additional losses in the near and intermediate future because of the Company’s activities. The negative cash flows from operations and lack of financial resources of the Company raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued. Management plans to finance operations through equity or debt financing

arrangements; however, if the Company is unable to raise additional funding to meet its working capital needs, or if funds are only available at terms unfavorable to the Company, the Company may be forced to delay or reduce the scope of its capital investment programs and/or limit or cease its operations. The Company will need to raise substantial additional funding in the near term to sustain operations.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and reclassification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the  three months ended March 31, 2018 , as compared to the significant accounting policies described in Note 2 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016 and 2017 and for the years then ended. Below are those policies with current period updates:
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 included elsewhere here in this filing.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and those of its wholly owned subsidiaries as of March 31, 2018 as follows:

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Information
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018 and for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 , and the related interim information contained within the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, are unaudited. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements. In

F-58

ESTABLISHMENT LABS HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments which are necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2018 , and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 . Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year 2018, or for any future period.
Segments
The chief operating decision maker for the Company is the Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by information about revenue by geographic region, for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company has one business activity and there are no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results or plans for levels or components below the consolidated unit level. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it has a single reportable and operating segment structure. The Company and its Chief Executive Officer evaluate performance based primarily on revenue in the geographic locations in which the Company operates.
Geographic Concentrations
The Company derives all of its revenues from sales to customers in Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Australia and Asia, and has not yet received approval to sell its products in the United States.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, no individual country exceeded 10% of consolidated revenue, on a ship-to destination basis.
The Company’s long-lived assets located in Costa Rica represented the majority of the total long-lived assets as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 .
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates and management judgments reflected in the consolidated financial statements include items such as accounts receivable valuation and allowances, inventory valuation and allowances, valuation of acquired intangible assets, valuation of derivatives, estimation of assets’ useful lives and valuation of deferred income tax assets, including tax valuation allowances. Estimates are based on historical experience, where applicable, and other assumptions believed to be reasonable by management. Actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash, restricted cash and accounts receivable. The majority of the Company’s cash is held at one financial institution in Costa Rica. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash.
All of the Company’s revenue has been derived from sales of its products in international markets, principally Europe, Middle East, Latin America, and Asia. In the international markets in which the Company participates, the Company uses a combination of distributors to sell its products as well as making direct sales to customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its distributors and customers, does not require collateral, and maintains allowances for potential credit losses on customer accounts when deemed necessary.
During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 , no customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue. No customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are derived from the sale of Motiva Implants.
The Company relies on NuSil Technology, LLC, or NuSil, as the sole supplier of medical-grade silicone used in Motiva Implants as well as other products that are manufactured under contract to other customers. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 , the Company had purchases of $2.5 million, or 59.9% of total purchases, and $2.9 million, or 61.1% of total purchases, respectively, from Nusil, and as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 , had an outstanding balance owed to this vendor of $0.7 million and $0.8 million , respectively.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

The Company’s future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company’s future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, uncertainty of regulatory approval of the Company’s current and potential future products, uncertainty of market acceptance of the Company’s products, competition from substitute products and larger companies, securing and protecting proprietary technology, strategic relationships and dependence on key individuals and sole source suppliers.
Products developed by the Company require clearances from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or other international regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales. There can be no assurance that the products will receive the necessary clearances. If the Company was denied clearance, clearance was delayed or the Company was unable to maintain its existing clearances, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
Cash
The Company’s cash consists of cash maintained in checking and interest-bearing accounts. The Company accounts for financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase as cash equivalents. The Company held no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 .
Restricted Cash
As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 , the restricted cash balance represented a certificate of deposit collateralizing payment of charges related to the Company's corporate credit card.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable is stated at invoice value less estimated allowances for returns and doubtful accounts. The Company continually monitors customer payments and maintains an allowance for estimated losses resulting from customers’ inability to make required payments. In evaluating the Company’s ability to collect outstanding receivable balances, the Company considers various factors including the age of the balance, the creditworthiness of the customer, which is assessed based on ongoing credit evaluations and payment history, and the customer’s current financial condition. In cases where there are circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, an allowance is recorded against amounts due, which reduces the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably believed to be collectible. Historical returns of products have been de minimis and accordingly no allowance for returns was recorded as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 .
Inventory and Cost of Revenue
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost to purchase or manufacture the inventory or the net realizable value of such inventory. Cost is determined using the standard cost method which approximates actual costs using the first-in, first-out basis. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities in consideration of actual loss experiences, projected future demand, and remaining shelf life to record a provision for excess and slow-moving inventory. No inventory allowance has been recorded as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 .
The Company recognizes the cost of inventory transferred to the customer in cost of revenue when revenue is recognized.
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses. Shipping and handling costs included in SG&A were $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 , respectively.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue related to sales of products to distributors or directly to customers in markets where it has regulatory approval, net of trade discounts and allowances. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met:
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
the sales price is fixed or determinable;
collection of the relevant receivable is probable at the time of sale; and
delivery has occurred or services have been rendered.

The Company recognizes revenue related to the sales of products to distributors at the time of shipment of the product, which represents the point in time when the customer has taken ownership and assumed the risk of loss and the required revenue recognition criteria are satisfied. The Company’s distributors are obligated to pay within specified terms regardless of when or if they sell the products. The Company’s contracts with distributors do not typically contain right of return or price protection and have no post-delivery obligations.
Appropriate reserves are established for anticipated sales returns based on historical experience, recent gross sales and any notification of pending returns. The Company recognizes revenue when title to the product and risk of loss transfer to customers, provided there are no remaining performance obligations required of the Company or any written matters requiring customer acceptance. The Company allows for the return of product from direct customers in certain regions within fifteen days after the original sale and records estimated sales returns as a reduction of sales in the same period revenue is recognized. Sales return provisions are calculated based upon historical experience with actual returns. Actual sales returns in any future period are inherently uncertain and thus may differ from the estimates. If actual sales returns differ significantly from the estimates, an adjustment to revenue in the current or subsequent period would be recorded. To date, sales returns have been de minimis. The Company will continue to monitor sales return activity and will record an allowance for sales returns against accounts receivable if deemed material.
A portion of the Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of consigned inventory maintained at physician, hospital, and clinic locations. For these products, revenue is recognized at the time the Company is notified by the customer that the product has been implanted, not when the consigned products are delivered to the customer’s warehouse.
The Company has a limited warranty to distributors for the shelf life of the product, which is five years from the time of manufacture. Estimated warranty obligations are recorded at the time of sale. The Company also offers a warranty to patients in the event of rupture and a replacement program for capsular contracture events provided certain registration requirements are met. Revenue for extended warranties are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement. To date, these warranty and program costs have been de minimis. The Company will continue to evaluate the warranty reserve policies for adequacy considering claims history.
Deferred revenue primarily consists of payments received in advance of meeting revenue recognition criteria. The Company has received payments from distributors to provide distribution exclusivity within a geographic area, and recognizes deferred revenue on a ratable basis over the term of such contractual distribution relationship. Additionally, the Company has received payments from customers in direct markets prior to surgical implantation, and recognizes deferred revenue at the time the Company is notified by the customer that the product has been implanted. For all arrangements, any revenue that has been deferred and is expected to be recognized beyond one year is classified as long-term deferred revenue and included in “Other liabilities, long term” on the consolidated balance sheets.
Research and Development
Costs related to research and development activities are expensed as incurred. Research and development, or R&D, costs primarily include personnel costs, materials, clinical expenses, regulatory expenses, product development, consulting services, outside research activities, all of which are directly related to research and development activities.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses include sales and marketing costs, payroll and related benefit costs, insurance expenses, shipping and handling costs, legal and professional fees and administrative overhead.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.
Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives of five to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the remaining lease term after factoring expected renewal periods. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in operations. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Substantially all of the Company’s manufacturing operations and related property and equipment is located in Costa Rica.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company records the excess of the acquisition purchase price over the net fair value of the tangible and identifiable

intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as goodwill. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, the Company tests goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. In connection with the annual impairment test for goodwill, the Company elected the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the impairment test is performed. Consistent with the Company's assessment that it has only one reporting segment, the Company has determined that it has only one reporting unit and tests goodwill for impairment at the entity level using the two-step process required by ASC 350. In the first step, the Company compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit to the fair value of the enterprise. If the fair value of the enterprise exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not considered impaired and no further testing is required. If the carrying value of the enterprise exceeds the fair value, goodwill is potentially impaired and the second step of the impairment test must be performed. In the second step, the Company compares the implied fair value of the goodwill, as defined by ASC 350, to its carrying amount to determine the impairment loss, if any.  
The Company capitalizes certain costs related to intangible assets, such as patents and trademarks and records purchased intangible assets at their respective estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method over their remaining estimated useful lives, which range from two to fifteen years. The Company evaluates the remaining useful lives of intangible assets on a periodic basis to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining estimated amortization period. The Company tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on at least an annual basis and whenever circumstances suggest the assets may be impaired. If indicators of impairment are present, the Company evaluates the carrying value of the intangible assets in relation to estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. The Company also evaluates the remaining useful life of an indefinite-lived intangible asset to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life.
During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 , there has been no impairment of goodwill or intangible assets based on the qualitative assessments performed by the Company. As of March 31, 2018 , no triggering events have occurred which would indicate that the acquired intangible asset values may not be recoverable.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable. When such an event occurs, management determines whether there has been impairment by comparing the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to the related asset group’s carrying value. If an asset is considered impaired, the asset is written down to fair value, which is determined based either on discounted cash flows or appraised value, depending on the nature of the asset. There were no impairment charges, or changes in estimated useful lives recorded d uring the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017. As of March 31, 2018 , no triggering events have occurred which would indicate that the acquired intangible asset values may not be recoverable.
Debt and Embedded Derivatives
The Company applies the accounting standards for derivatives and hedging and for distinguishing liabilities from equity when accounting for hybrid contracts. The Company accounts for convertible debt instruments when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments in accordance with ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options. The Company records, when necessary, discounts to notes payable for the intrinsic value of conversion and other options embedded in debt instruments as a beneficial conversion option based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying shares at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note (see Note 6).
The Company uses option pricing valuation models to determine the fair value of embedded derivatives and records any change in fair value as a component of other income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations (see Note 5).
Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discounts
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of new debt are capitalized. Capitalizable debt issuance costs paid to third parties and debt discounts paid to creditors, net of amortization, are recorded as a reduction to the long-term debt balance on the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense on capitalized debt issuance costs and debt discounts

F-62

related to loans are calculated using the effective interest method over the term of the loan commitment, and is recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Income Taxes
The Company records income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements or income tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, expected future events, enactments or changes in the tax law or rates are considered. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to audit by various tax authorities.
The Company records uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process whereby (1) a determination is made as to whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. Significant judgment is required in the identification of uncertain tax positions and in the estimation of penalties and interest on uncertain tax positions.
There were no material uncertain tax positions in fiscal 2016 , 2017 and for the three months ended March 31, 2018 .
Foreign Currency
The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries whose functional currencies are the local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars for consolidation as follows: assets and liabilities at the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, stockholders’ equity at the historical rates of exchange, and income and expense amounts at the average exchange rate for the month. Translation adjustments resulting from the translation of the subsidiaries’ accounts are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).” Transactions denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currency are converted to the functional currency at the exchange rate on the transaction date. At period end, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured to the functional currency using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included within “Other income (expense), net.”
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company’s comprehensive income consists of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments arising from the consolidation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based awards in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Stock Compensation . Stock-based awards granted include stock options and restricted stock awards, or RSAs. Share-based compensation expense for stock options and RSAs granted to employees is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the awards and is recognized as an expense ratably on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The fair value of options to purchase ordinary shares granted to employees is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.
The company accounts for stock options and RSAs issued to non-employees under ASC 505-50 Equity: Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees , using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value stock options. The fair value of such non-employee awards is remeasured at each quarter-end over the vesting period.
The calculation of share-based compensation expense requires that the company make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the Black-Scholes model, including the expected term, expected volatility of the underlying common shares, risk-free interest rate and dividends.
The company has adopted ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting , under which it will recognize forfeitures as they occur rather than applying a prospective forfeiture rate in advance (see Note 10).

Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, any shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable, share warrants and share options and non-vested restricted stock units outstanding under the Company’s equity plan are potentially dilutive securities. Because the Company has reported a net loss in all periods presented, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net loss per ordinary share for those periods because including the dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.
Recent Accounting Standards
The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, enacted in April 2012. The Company intends to take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements including following private company effective dates for new or revised accounting standards.
The following recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, could have a material effect on our financial statements:
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting . This ASU provides amendments to the current guidance on determining which changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards require the application of modification accounting. The effects of a modification should be accounted for unless there are no changes between the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the modified award and the original award immediately before the original award is modified. ASU 2017-09 became effective for non-public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition . This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 provides two methods of retrospective application. The first method would require the Company to apply ASU 2014-09 to each prior reporting period presented. The second method would require the Company to retrospectively apply ASU 2014-09 with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. ASU 2014-09 is effective for non-public business entities beginning in fiscal 2019 as a result of ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, ” which was issued by the FASB in August 2015 and extended the original effective date by one year. In 2016, the FASB issued additional updates to the new revenue standard relating to reporting revenue on a gross versus net basis, identifying performance obligations and licensing arrangements, and narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, respectively. The effective date of this additional update is the same as that of ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the available methodologies of ASU 2014-09 and the related updated revenue recognition guidance upon its financial statements in future reporting periods. The Company has not yet selected a transition method. The Company is in the process of evaluating the new standard against its existing accounting policies, including the timing of revenue recognition, and its contracts with customers to determine the effect the guidance will have on its financial statements and what changes to systems and controls may be warranted.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease,

F-64

(Unaudited)

respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than twelve months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of twelve months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. ASC 842 supersedes the previous leases standard, ASC 840 Leases. The standard is effective for non-public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting . This ASU provides amendments to the current guidance on determining which changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards require the application of modification accounting. The effects of a modification should be accounted for unless there are no changes between the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the modified award and the original award immediately before the original award is modified. ASU 2017-09 is effective for non-public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 was $0.2 million and $0.5 million , respectively. The Company entered into capital leases relating to equipment and vehicles and recorded the fair value of the lease payments on the initial contract date, and is amortizing the assets over the term of the leases. As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 , the gross asset value for capital lease assets was $1.3 million . Depreciation expense for assets under capital leases is de minimus.

In August 2015, the Company entered into a contract with the Zona Franca Coyol, S.A. to have them build a new manufacturing facility in Costa Rica. The construction of the new 27,900 square foot facility began in November 2015 and was finished during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The construction costs were paid for by the Company. The Company has an option to purchase the title to the building for approximately $3.5 million and on May 11, 2016 the Company provided notice of the intent to exercise the purchase right and expects the transaction to complete by the end of 2018 . Currently, the Company leases the building from Zona Franca Coyol, S.A. for approximately $28 thousand per month.
4.      Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of entities accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting are recorded at the estimated fair value of the assets acquired. Purchased intangibles include certain patents and license rights, 510(k) authorization by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, to sell a medical device and other intangible assets.
The Company’s goodwill and most intangibles at March 31, 2018 are the result of acquisitions of certain assets formerly owned by VeriTeQ Corporation in November 2015 and Femiline AB in November 2017 and business acquisitions of Establishment Labs Brasil Productos para Saude Ltda. in January 2016, European Distribution Center Motiva BVBA in March 2016 and Motiva Implants France in September 2016 (see Note 11). Finite-lived intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful lives based on expected future benefit.
In addition to the intangibles acquired, the Company capitalized certain patent and license rights as identified intangibles based on patent and license rights agreements entered into over the past several years. Additionally, the Company capitalized certain software development costs associated with its development of a manufacturing software module, which the Company began amortizing in fiscal 2017 upon implementation of the software.
There were no changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2018 :

The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate to us that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. As of March 31, 2018 , no triggering events have occurred which would indicate that the acquired intangible asset values may not be recoverable.
5.      Fair Value Measurements
The carrying value of the Company’s cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term notes payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these items. Based on the borrowing rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and consideration of default and credit risk, the carrying value of the related-party notes payable approximates its fair value. Warrants and put and call options that qualify for liability treatment are carried at fair value and re-measured at each reporting period.
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The fair value hierarchy defines a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:
Level I    Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level II    Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level I that are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level III    Uno bservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity for the related assets or liabilities.
The categorization of a financial instrument within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair value measurement of derivatives and contingent consideration related to the business acquisition completed in fiscal 2017 is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.
In August, 2017 the Company entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders (see Note 6). The Company determined that the Madryn Credit Agreement contained put options related to early redemption mandatory prepayment terms in case of change in control or an event of default and a call option related to voluntary repayment option. The Company valued these put options and the call option and allocated a fair value of $15.1 million for these identified embedded derivatives as a debt discount on the original commitment date. An additional $5.0 million debt discount was recorded on respective borrowing dates when the Company met the required milestones and borrowed an additional $10.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company revalued the options as of each reporting period, and recorded the change in the fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense.
Valuation of the embedded derivatives is complex and requires interest rate simulation, estimating the resultant bond valuation and the resultant pay-off to the option holder. The Company estimated the fair value of the embedded redemption options using the Binomial Lattice Model which is based on generalized binomial option pricing formula. The Binomial Option Pricing Model allows for the possibility of exercise before the end of the option’s life and considers future interest rates, volatility and other data with regards to the Company’s credit rating and credit spread.

On November 17, 2017, the Company and Femiline AB and Johan Anderson, or the Seller, entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets from the Seller. The assets purchased included all existing inventory previously sold by the Company to the Seller, all customer relationships and a covenant not to compete. The aggregate purchase price for the assets purchased was 100,000 Class A Ordinary shares of the Company, contingently issuable upon achievement of specific milestones. Based on the valuation of the Company’s shares performed by a valuation specialist, the contingently issuable shares had an aggregate value of $1.0 million calculated as a product of contingently issuable shares and estimated fair value per share (see Note 11). As the ordinary shares are not publicly traded, the Company must estimate their fair value. The fair value of ordinary shares was determined on a periodic basis by the Company’s Board of Directors, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm.
In order to assess the fair value of our ordinary shares, our business enterprise value, or BEV, is determined and then allocated to each element of our capital structure (ordinary shares, warrants and options). Our BEV is estimated using the income approach and the market approach. The discounted cash flow method, or DCF, estimates the enterprise value based on the estimated present value of future net cash flows the business is expected to generate over a forecasted period and an estimate of the present value of cash flows beyond that period, which is referred to as terminal value. The estimated present value is calculated using a discount rate known as the weighted average cost of capital, which accounts for the time value of money and the appropriate degree of risks inherent in the business. Under the market approach, the enterprise value is based on the multiples of comparable companies and transactions. The BEV is allocated using probability-weighted expected return method, or PWERM, which estimates the fair value of common shares based on an analysis of future values for the enterprise assuming various future outcomes.
As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, the short term and long term portions of contingent consideration liability were included in “Other liabilities, short term” and “Other liabilities, long term”, respectively.
The estimates are based, in part, on subjective assumptions and could differ materially in the future.

During the periods presented, the Company has not changed the manner in which it values liabilities that are measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs. The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers within the hierarchy during the year ended December 31, 2017 or three months ended March 31, 2018 .
The fair value of the debt conversion feature liability includes the estimated volatility and risk free rate.  The higher/lower the estimated volatility, the higher/lower the value of the debt conversion feature liability. The higher/lower the risk free interest rate, the higher/lower the value of the debt conversion feature liability.

Notes Payable Related Party
In August 2015, the Company entered into agreements with all of the Class Z redeemable convertible preferred shareholders to exchange their outstanding shares and accumulated dividends for notes payable with a principal balance of $4.2 million . Per the original agreement, the notes bear interest at a simple rate of 7% per annum with the interest payments due annually starting March 30, 2017 and a note maturity date of March 31, 2020. Annual payments are due based on achievement of certain annual sales milestones beginning in March 2017. In March, 2017, the Company modified the agreement to defer the interest payments for an additional period, which will be thirty days after the Company successfully completes its planned IPO. Upon the effectiveness of an IPO, the notes will become due and payable in full. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 , the Company recorded interest expense of $0.1 million, to accrue for interest due on the notes. The Company recorded notes payable related party on the balance sheet as follows:

Related Party Convertible Notes Payable
In August 2015, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, or the Note Agreement or the

F-71

ESTABLISHMENT LABS HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Notes, with CPH, a primary shareholder, to borrow up to $15.0 million. The Notes issued pursuant to the agreement bore interest at a simple rate of 10% per annum.
In January and July 2016, the Company amended the Note Agreement to increase the aggregate borrowing limit to $18.0 million and $19.8 million, respectively. In September 2016, the Company entered into an amended agreement with CPH to terminate the warrants originally issued in connection with the Notes, fix the conversion rate, and extend the maturity date.
The Notes contained usual and customary events of default upon the occurrence of certain events, such as nonpayment of amounts due under the credit agreement, violation of the restrictive covenants, violation of other contractual provisions, or a material adverse change in its business. The Notes also contained cross default provisions such that if the Company is in default under other credit agreements such that the principal amounts of those agreements can be accelerated, the Notes may also be determined to be in default. The Notes included customary administrative covenants, including a prohibition on declaring dividends, and includes certain financial maintenance and operating related covenants.
In connection with the Notes, the Company issued warrants for the purchase of ordinary shares to CPH and to Rockport Ventures, the placement agent. The estimated fair value of the warrants issued in August 2015 was determined to be $1.1 million, which was recorded as a debt discount and was being amortized using the effective interest rate method over the term of the Notes (see Note 9).
The Company determined that the Note Agreement contained several put options related to liquidity events or an event of default. The Company valued these put options, and allocated the fair value of $0.1 million for these identified embedded derivatives as a debt discount on the original commitment date in August 2015. The Company revalued the put options as of each reporting period, and recorded the change in the fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense (see Note 5).
August 2017 Conversion
On August 24, 2017, CPH elected to convert the principal and the accrued interest outstanding under the Notes into 5,869,417 shares of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares. The related beneficial conversion feature liability was amortized into non-cash interest expense while the CPH put option liability expired upon the conversion of the notes.
There was no outstanding balance under the Notes as of December 31, 2017 or March 31, 2018.
Madryn Debt
On August 24, 2017 the Company entered into a credit agreement, or the Madryn Credit Agreement, with Madryn Health Partners, LP, or Madryn, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The Madryn Credit Agreement provides for a credit facility for a maximum principal amount of $55.0 million , $30.0 million (Term A) of which became available upon signing. The final maturity date under the Madryn Credit Agreement is June 30, 2023.
The availability of the additional Term B and Term C commitments under the Madryn Credit Agreement, which are for an aggregate principal amount of up to $25 million, are subject to the Company achieving certain revenue milestones. The Company met some of these milestones and borrowed an additional $5.0 million (Term B-1) on October 31, 2017 and $5.0 million (Term B-2) on December 15, 2017 bringing up the total outstanding principal balance to $40.0 million as of December 31, 2017. As of June 15, 2018, we were eligible to draw down an additional $5.0 million (Term B-3) under the amended Credit Agreement, and an additional $10.0 million (Term C) may become available on June 30, 2020 if the required milestones for this tranche are achieved . The Company has not yet met the required milestones for the Term C tranche as of the date of the issuance of these interim financial statements. The availability of each tranche is also conditioned on the Company having advanced the maximum loan amount under each prior tranche.
In connection with the Madryn Credit Agreement, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, granted a security interest in substantially all of the property of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, including, without limitation, intellectual property, and pledges of certain shares of the Brazilian subsidiary and the Belgian subsidiary, subject to certain excluded collateral exceptions.
Borrowings under the Madryn Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to 3-month LIBOR plus 11.0% per annum provided that no default has occurred. In an event of a default, the interest would increase by an additional 4.0% per

F-72

annum. The weighted average interest rate under the credit agreement was approximately 12.7 % at March 31, 2018 . The Company incurred $1.4 million in interest expense in connection with Madryn Credit Agreement in fiscal 2017 and $1.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018. No principal payments are due until 2021. Eight quarterly payments of 12.5% of the principal amounts borrowed under each tranche are due beginning September 30, 2021 and each quarter end through and including June 30, 2023.
The Company also determined that the Madryn Credit Agreement contained put options which are mandatory repayment provisions related to liquidity events or an event of default and a call option related to voluntary repayment option. The Company valued these put options and the call option, and allocated a fair value of $15.1 million for these identified embedded derivatives as a debt discount on the original commitment date in August 2017. An additional $5.0 million debt discount was recorded on respective borrowing dates when the Company met the required milestones and borrowed an additional $10.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company revalues the options as of each reporting period, and records the change in the fair value in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense (see Note 5). The Company also incurred legal expenses of $1.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2017, which were recorded as a debt discount and are being amortized over the term of the Madryn Credit Agreement.
The Madryn Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make certain investments, make restricted payments, enter into or undertake certain liquidations, mergers, consolidations or acquisitions and dispose of assets or subsidiaries. In addition, the Madryn Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain minimum revenues and liquidity.
In January 2018, management made an assessment that the Company would likely default on the Madryn Credit Agreement due to its investment in our Brazilian subsidiary approaching the $5.0 million limit. The Company informed Madryn and the syndicate of lenders, or the Lenders, of the potential technical default event and started the process to obtain a forbearance agreement. The Company initially defaulted on the Madryn Credit Agreement on January 19, 2018 when it failed to put a Qualifying Control Agreement in place for certain bank deposit accounts and subsequently on February 28, 2018 when its investment in its Brazilian subsidiary exceeded the allowable $5.0 million threshold permitted under the Madryn Credit Agreement. As a result, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lenders, where the Lenders agreed to forebear from exercising certain rights and remedies through May 18, 2018 and subsequently through July 3, 2018 arising from certain disclosure and other technical defaults under the Madryn Credit Agreement, including those mentioned above with respect to our Brazilian subsidiary. In accordance with certain cure rights under the Madryn Credit Agreement and the forbearance agreement terms, the Company will use its best efforts to raise no less than $20.0 million of cash proceeds from equity issuances.  Furthermore, the forbearance agreement permits the limit of the amount of investment in the Brazilian subsidiary not to exceed an additional $5.0 million, and maintain the liquidity in accounts for which Madryn received a qualifying control agreement of no less than $2.0 million, while the Company provides periodic reports on all investments in the Brazilian subsidiary. The forbearance agreement also forbears the lenders from exercising certain rights and remedies in the event of our failure to provide the report and opinion of an independent certified public accountant free from any “going concern” qualifications for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.
Accordingly, the Company recorded the Madryn debt as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017. Effective June 15, 2018, Madryn Credit Agreement was amended to remove the restrictive covenants that resulted in the technical defaults which allowed the Company to reclassify the arrangement as long-term as of March 31, 2018.

Under this agreement, to the extent the Company redeems or repurchases any shares from any holder, the Company shall offer to resell one half of the repurchased shares to Madryn at the same price paid by the Company to purchase or retire the shares. To the extent Madryn elects to purchase the repurchased shares, the amount paid by Madryn shall reduce the amount of investment available in the next eligible equity investment. The Company has not repurchased shares since August 2017.

Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may have certain contingent liabilities that arise in the ordinary course of business activities. The Company accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. There have been no contingent liabilities requiring accrual or disclosure at December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 .
Indemnification
The Company enters into standard indemnification arrangements in the ordinary course of business. Pursuant to these arrangements, the Company indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to reimburse the indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, in connection with any trade secret, copyright, patent or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third-party with respect to the Company’s technology. The term of these indemnification agreements is generally perpetual. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these agreements is not determinable because it involves claims that may be made against the Company in the future, but have not yet been made.
The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers that may require the Company to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of the individual.
The Company has not incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. No liability associated with such indemnifications has been recorded to date.

In March 2017, the Rockport Warrants were canceled and new warrants for the purchase of 145,000 Class B ordinary shares were issued to parties related to Rockport Ventures, with a fixed exercise price of $3.80 per share.
As of December 31, 2016, the Company has classified the fair value of these warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet due to the existence of certain cash settlement features that are not within the sole control of the Company and variable settlement provision that cause them to not be indexed to the Company’s own shares.
The value of the CPH warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model which approximates a Lattice valuation model, and at issuance, the Company initially recorded the fair value of the warrants as a debt discount against the related loan balance in its consolidated balance sheet. The recorded value of the warrants is being amortized to interest expense over the estimated repayment term of the related loans. The value of the Rockport Ventures warrants was estimated using the Black Sholes valuation model which approximates a Lattice valuation model, and at issuance, the Company initially recorded the fair value of the warrants as a debt offering cost against the related loan balance in its balance sheet. The recorded value of the warrants is being amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method over the term of the related loans.
As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, the 145,000 warrants to purchase ordinary shares were outstanding and exercisable:

In July 2017, the Company early adopted ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives And Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting For Certain Financial Instruments With Down Round Features, (Part Ii) Replacement Of The Indefinite Deferral For Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments Of Certain Nonpublic Entities And Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests With A Scope Exception. As a result, certain warrants that were previously classified as a liability due to an existence of down round

features became qualified to be classified as equity. The adoption of this standard resulted in $1.0 million reclassification of warrant liability into additional paid in capital as of July 1, 2017.
10.      Share-Based Compensation
In December 2015, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, or 2015 Plan. Under the 2015 Plan, the Company may grant share options, equity appreciation rights, and restricted shares and restricted share units. Pursuant to the 2015 Plan, the Company has granted restricted stock awards, or RSAs, and stock options to Board of Directors, employees and consultants.
The 2015 Plan, as amended, reserves 2,650,000 Class A shares for issuance. If an award granted under the 2015 Plan expires, terminates, is unexercised, or is forfeited, or if any shares are surrendered in connection with an incentive award, the shares subject to such award and the surrendered shares will become available for further awards under the 2015 Plan.
During the three months ended March 31, the Company recorded the following share-based compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock awards:

At March 31, 2018 , unrecognized compensation expense was $1.5 million related to stock options granted to employees and Board of Directors and $1.8 million related to stock options granted to consultants. The weighted-average period over which such compensation expense will be recognized is 3.0 years.
Stock Options Granted to Employees
Share-based compensation expense for employees is based on the grant date fair value. The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of four years. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 , the Company recognized $39,000 and $0.1 million , respectively, of stock-based compensation expense for stock options granted to employees.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value options granted to employees and consultants, which requires the use of highly subjective assumptions to determine the fair value of share-based awards. The assumptions used in the Company’s option-pricing model represent management’s best estimates. These estimates are complex, involve a number of variables, uncertainties and assumptions and the application of management’s judgment. If factors change and different assumptions are used, the Company’s share-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. The assumptions and estimates that the Company uses in the Black-Scholes model are as follows:
Fair Value of Common Shares. As the ordinary shares are not publicly traded, the Company must estimate their fair value. The fair value of ordinary shares was determined on a periodic basis by the Company’s Board of Directors, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm.   The Board of Directors intended all options granted to be exercisable at a price per share not less than the estimated per share fair value of the shares underlying those options on the date of grant.
Risk-Free Interest Rate. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation model on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term equivalent to that of the term of the options for each option group on the measurement date.
Term. For employee stock options, the expected term represents the period that the Company’s share-based awards are expected to be outstanding. Because of the limitations on the sale or transfer of the Company’s shares as a privately held company, the Company does not believe its historical exercise pattern is indicative of the pattern it will experience as a publicly traded company. The Company has consequently used the Staff Accounting Bulletin 110, or SAB 110, simplified method to calculate the expected term of employee stock options, which is the average of the contractual term and vesting period. The Company plans to continue to use the SAB 110 simplified method until it has sufficient trading history as a publicly traded company. For consultant stock options, the term used is equal to the remaining contractual term on the measurement date.
Volatility. The Company determines the price volatility based on the historical volatilities of industry peers as it has no trading history for its shares. Industry peers consist of several public companies in the medical device industry with comparable characteristics, including revenue growth, operating model and working capital requirements. The Company intends to continue to consistently apply this process using the same or a similar peer group of public companies until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of its own shares becomes available, or unless circumstances change such that the identified peer companies are no longer similar, in which case other suitable peer companies whose common share prices are publicly available would be utilized in the calculation. The volatility is calculated based on the term on the measurement date.
Dividend Yield. The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s current expectations about its anticipated dividend policy. The Company has no expectation that it will declare dividends on its ordinary shares, and therefore has used an expected dividend yield of zero.

Stock Options Granted to Non-Employees
Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options granted to nonemployees is recognized as the stock options are earned using an accelerated attribution method. The Company believes that the estimated fair value of the stock options is more readily measurable than the fair value of the services rendered. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 , the Company recognized expense of $0.4 million and $0.5 million for stock options granted to consultants.

The fair value of RSAs is the grant date market value of the Class A ordinary shares. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense related to RSAs using a straight-line method over the vesting term of the awards. The fair value of RSAs that vested during during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 , was $0.7 million and $0.1 million , which was calculated based on the market value of the Company’s ordinary shares on the applicable date of vesting.
As of March 31, 2018 , we had unrecognized share-based compensation cost of approximately $4.4 million associated with unvested restricted stock awards. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.3 years.
11.     Business Combinations
Sweden
On November 17, 2017, the Company and Femiline AB and Johan Anderson, or the Seller, entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets from the Seller. The assets purchased included all existing inventory previously sold by the Company to the Seller, all customer relationships and a covenant not to compete. The aggregate purchase price for the assets purchased was 100,000 Class A Ordinary shares of the Company, contingently issuable upon achievement of specific milestones. Based on the valuation of the Company’s shares performed by a valuation specialist, the contingently issuable shares had an aggregate value of $1.0 million . The book value of the inventory at the time of the acquisition was approximately $0.7 million, which was revalued on the transaction date to be the estimated selling price less the cost to sell, which increased the fair value of the inventory to approximately $1.5 million.
Concurrently, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement with Novaform Ltd, or Novaform, and Pantelis Ioannou. In April 2015, Novaform had become a distributor for Establishment Labs S.A., wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and subsequently sublicensed its distribution rights to Femiline AB. Under the Separation Agreement, Novaform agreed to relinquish the distribution rights back to the Company for $1.0 million in cash and 35,714 Class A ordinary shares. Based on the valuation of the Company’s shares performed by a valuation specialist, the fair value of the shares issued was $0.3 million.
This transaction will enable the Company to restructure its existing distribution network in Sweden, Denmark and Norway and initiate direct sales to customers in the region.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
British Virgin Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the British Virgin Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. The Registrant’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association will provide for the indemnification of its directors against all losses or liabilities incurred or sustained by him or her as a director of the Registrant in defending any proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative in which the director acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interest of the company and had no reasonable cause to believe that their conduct was unlawful.
The Registrant’s policy is to enter into separate indemnification agreements with each of its directors and certain officers that provide the maximum indemnity allowed to directors and executive under British Virgin Islands law and also to provide for certain additional procedural protections. The Registrant also maintains directors and officers insurance to insure such persons against certain liabilities.
These indemnification provisions and the indemnification agreements entered into between the Registrant and its directors and officers may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the Registrant’s officers and directors for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act.
The underwriting agreement to be filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this registration statement provides for indemnification by the underwriters of the Registrant and its officers and directors for certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act and otherwise.
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
Since January 1, 2015, we have issued and sold to third parties the securities listed below without registering the securities under the Securities Act. None of these transactions involved any public offering. All our securities were sold

II-1


through private placement either (i) outside the United States or (ii) in the United States to a limited number of investors in transactions not involving any public offering. As discussed below, we believe that each issuance of these securities was exempt from, or not subject to, registration under the Securities Act, relying on Section 4(a)(2) (or Regulation D promulgated thereunder), Regulation S or Rule 701 of the Securities Act.
In August 2015, all of the 7,364 outstanding Class Z preferred shares were exchanged for promissory notes issued by us to former Class Z preferred shareholders in the aggregate amount of $4.3 million.
In August 2015, we entered into a note and warrant purchase agreement with CPH TU, LP, or CPH, and was issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $10.0 million and an associated warrant. In January 2016, we amended the note and warrant purchase agreement to increase the aggregate borrowing limit and issued a second convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $3.0 million and an associated warrant. In March 2016, we issued a third convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $5.0 million and, in August 2015, upon further amendment of the note and warrant purchase agreement, we issued a fourth convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $1.8 million, along with an associated warrant. In September 2016, we amended the note and warrant purchase agreement in order to (1) fix the conversion ratio to $3.99 per share for the principal amounts, and $4.9143 per share for the interest amounts; (2) convert all outstanding interest accrued under the notes as of such date into a fifth convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $4.3 million; and (3) cancel all warrants previously issued to CPH.
In connection with the convertible promissory notes and warrants issued to CPH pursuant to the note and warrant purchase agreement described above, we issued a warrant to purchase ordinary shares to Rockport Venture Securities, LLC, the placement agent for the notes. The number of shares for which such warrant may be exercised is determined by dividing an amount equal to 3% of the principal up to $15.0 million by a pre-determined ratio of the fully diluted shares outstanding on the date of conversion. The Rockport warrants were immediately exercisable and will expire seven years from the original issuance date.
Pursuant to asset purchase agreement entered into with Magna Equities I, LLC, or Magna, in November 2015, we issued Magna 130,354 Class A ordinary shares as partial consideration for certain assets of VeriTeQ Corporation.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

(1)    For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

7.3
Adjustment for Future Equity Financings
(a)
If the Company issues equity securities in an equity financing that is not the Company’s initial public offering of registered securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (such initial public offering, the “ IPO ”), for a consideration per share (such consideration per share being referred to as the “ Future Equity Financing Price ”) less than $14.00 per share, then the Conversion Ratio for each Class F Ordinary Share (or if the Class F Ordinary Shares have been converted to Common Shares in accordance with Section 7.1(b), each such converted Common Share) shall be equal to the quotient of (a) 14.0 divided by (b) the Future Equity Financing Price multiplied by 0.85 (the “ Class F Price Adjustment ”).  The Class F Price Adjustment obligation in this Section 7.3(a) shall terminate immediately upon the closing of the IPO if such IPO consists of the closing of a firm underwritten public offering of Common Shares with gross proceeds of at least US$35 million (a “ Qualifying IPO ”) but otherwise shall continue until conversion occurs pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.3(a) or the conversion right expires in connection with Section 7.3(b).
(b)
If the Company issues equity securities in the IPO for a consideration per share (such consideration per share being referred to as the “ IPO Price ”) less than $15.00 per share, then the Conversion Ratio for each Class F Ordinary Share (or if the Class F Ordinary Shares have been converted to Common Shares in accordance with Section 7.1(b), each such converted Common Share) shall be equal to the quotient of (a) 15.0 divided by (b) the IPO Price multiplied by 0.85 (the “ Class F IPO Price Adjustment ”).  The Class F IPO Price Adjustment obligation in this Section 7.3(b) shall terminate immediately upon the closing of any IPO below $15 per share by reason of the automatic conversion set forth herein, or upon the closing of a Qualifying IPO above $15 per share but shall continue for further public offerings if such IPO is not a Qualifying IPO and the shares have not otherwise converted hereunder.
(c)
If the Company issues equity securities in a public offering registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (a “ Public Offering ”) for a price to the public (the “ Public Offering Price ”) of less than $17.60 per share, then the Conversion Ratio for each Class G-1 Ordinary Share (or if the Class G-1 Ordinary Shares have been converted to Common Shares in accordance with Section 7.1(b), each holder of such converted Common Shares shall be issued additional Common Shares as though such increased Conversion Ratio applied at the time of such conversion) shall be increased (but shall not be decreased hereunder) to an amount equal to the quotient of (a) 17.6 divided by (b) the Public Offering Price multiplied by 0.90 (the “ Class G-1 IPO Price Adjustment ”).  The Class G-1 IPO Price Adjustment obligation in this Section 7.3(c) shall terminate immediately upon the closing of (i) any Public Offering with a Public Offering Price below $17.60 per share pursuant to which an adjustment to the Conversion Ratio occurs under this Section 7.3(c), or (ii) a firm-commitment underwritten Public Offering with gross proceeds of at least US$35 million, which may be the Company’s IPO (a “ Qualifying Offering ”), with a Public Offering Price above $17.60 per share but shall continue for further public offerings if the shares have not otherwise converted pursuant to the terms of Section 7.1(a).
(d)
If the Company issues equity securities in an equity financing that is not a Public Offering for a Future Equity Financing Price less than $16.00 per share, then the Conversion Ratio for each Class G-1 Ordinary Share (or if the Class G-1 Ordinary Shares have been converted to Common Shares in accordance with Section 7.1(b), each holder of such converted


Establishment Labs Holdings Inc.
Page 8

Common Shares shall be issued additional Common Shares as though such increased Conversion Ratio applied at the time of such conversion) shall be increased (but shall not be decreased hereunder) to an amount equal to the quotient of (a) 16.0 divided by (b) the Future Equity Financing Price multiplied by 0.90 (the “ Class G-1 Financing Price Adjustment ”).  The Class G-1 Financing Price Adjustment shall terminate immediately upon the closing of (i) any equity financing below $16 per share pursuant to which an adjustment to the Conversion Ratio occurs under this Section 7.3(d) or (ii) a Qualifying Offering, but otherwise shall continue until conversion occurs pursuant to the terms of Section 7.1(a).
8.
VARIATION OF CLASS RIGHTS
Subject to the Articles, the rights attached to any class or series of shares (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class or series), whether or not the Company is being wound-up, may be varied with the consent in writing of all the holders of the issued shares of that class or series or with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of the class or series.
9.
RIGHTS NOT VARIED BY THE ISSUE OF SHARES PARI PASSU
Rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class or series issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class or series, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.
10.
REGISTERED SHARES
The Company shall issue registered shares only, and such shares may be in full or fractional form. The Company is not authorised to issue bearer shares, convert registered shares to bearer shares, or exchange registered shares for bearer shares.
11.
AMENDMENT OF MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

The Board is permitted to pass a Resolution of Directors refusing or delaying the registration of a transfer where it reasonably determines that it is in the best interest of the Company to do so.

12.7

If the Board is satisfied that an instrument of transfer has been signed but that the instrument has been lost or destroyed, it may resolve:

to accept such evidence of the transfer of the shares as it considers appropriate; and

Any person becoming entitled by operation of law or otherwise to a share in consequence of the death, incompetence or bankruptcy of any Member may be registered as a Member upon such evidence being produced as may reasonably be required by the Board.

15.3
Any person who has become entitled to a share or shares in consequence of the death, incompetence or bankruptcy of any Member may, instead of being registered himself, request in writing that some person to be named by him be registered as the transferee of such share and such request shall likewise be treated as if it were a transfer.

(i)      promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders; and
(ii)      as soon as practicable, file and use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration (including, without limitation, filing post-effective amendments, appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws, and appropriate compliance with the Securities Act) and to permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of

4



any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within 20 days after such written notice from the Company is mailed or delivered.
(b)      Limitations on Requested Registration. The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.1:
(i)      Prior to the earlier of (A) the five year anniversary of the date of this Agreement or (B) 180 days following the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company covering an underwritten offering of any of its securities to the general public (or the subsequent date on which all market stand-off agreements applicable to the offering have terminated);
(ii)      If the Initiating Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration statement, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate offering price, net of underwriter’s discounts and expenses, of less than $5,000,000;
(iii)      In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification, or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;
(iv)      After the Company has initiated two such registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1 (counting for these purposes only (x) registrations which have been declared or ordered effective and pursuant to which securities have been sold, and (y) Withdrawn Registrations);
(v)      During the period starting with the date 60 days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date 180 days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration (or ending on the subsequent date on which all market stand-off agreements applicable to the offering have terminated); provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;
(vi)      If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that may be registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made under Section 2.3;
(vii)      If the Initiating Holders do not request that such offering be firmly underwritten by underwriters selected by the Initiating Holders (subject to the consent of the Company); and
(viii)      If the Company and the Initiating Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of the underwriter described in clause (b)(vii) above to firmly underwrite the offer.
(c)      Deferral. If (i) in the good faith judgment of the board of directors of the Company, the filing of a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities would be materially detrimental to the Company and the board of directors of the Company concludes, as a result, that it is in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing of such registration statement at such time, and (ii) the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the President or Chief Financial Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the board of directors of the Company, it would be materially detrimental to the Company for such registration statement to be filed in the near future and that it is, therefore, in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing of such registration statement, then (in addition to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1(b)(b)(v) above) the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders, and, provided further ,

5



that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than two times in any twelve-month period.
(d)      Other Shares. The registration statement filed pursuant to the request of the Initiating Holders may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.1(e), include Other Shares, and may include securities of the Company being sold for the account of the Company.
(e)      Underwriting. The right of any Holder to include all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in an underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities to the extent provided herein. If the Company shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to Section 2.1 of securities being sold for its own account, or if other persons shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to Section 2.1, the Initiating Holders shall, on behalf of all Holders, offer to include such securities in the underwriting and such offer shall be conditioned upon the participation of the Company or such other persons in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Company’s and such person’s other securities of the Company and their acceptance of the further applicable provisions of this Section 2 (including Section 2.10). The Company shall (together with all Holders and other persons proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company, which underwriters are reasonably acceptable to a majority-in-interest of the Initiating Holders.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.1, if the underwriters advise the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities and Other Shares that may be so included shall be allocated as follows: (i) first, among all Holders requesting to include Registrable Securities in such registration statement based on the pro rata percentage of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, assuming conversion; and (ii) second, to the Company, which the Company may allocate, at its discretion, for its own account, or for the account of other holders or employees of the Company.
If a person who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided above does not agree to the terms of any such underwriting, such person shall be excluded therefrom by written notice from the Company, the underwriter or the Initiating Holders. The securities so excluded shall also be withdrawn from registration. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall also be withdrawn from such registration. If shares are so withdrawn from the registration and if the number of shares to be included in such registration was previously reduced as a result of marketing factors pursuant to this Section 2.1(e), then the Company shall then offer to all Holders who have retained rights to include securities in the registration the right to include additional Registrable Securities in the registration in an aggregate amount equal to the number of shares so withdrawn, with such shares to be allocated among such Holders requesting additional inclusion, as set forth above.
2.2      Company Registration .
(a)      Company Registration. If the Company shall determine to register any of its securities either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than a registration pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.3, a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, a registration relating to the offer and sale of debt securities, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or other Rule 145

6



transaction, or a registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales, the Company will:
(i)      promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all Holders; and
(ii)      use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), except as set forth in Section 2.2(b) below, and in any underwriting involved therein, all of such Registrable Securities as are specified in a written request or requests made by any Holder or Holders received by the Company within 10 days after such written notice from the Company is mailed or delivered. Such written request may specify all or a part of a Holder’s Registrable Securities.
(b)      Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(a)(i). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company, the Other Selling Shareholders and other holders of securities of the Company with registration rights to participate therein distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2, if the underwriters advise the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the underwriters may (subject to the limitations set forth below) limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in, the registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise all holders of securities requesting registration, and the number of shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated, as follows: (i) first, to the Company for securities being sold for its own account, (ii) second, to the Holders requesting to include Registrable Securities in such registration statement based on the pro rata percentage of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, assuming conversion and (iii) third, to the Other Selling Shareholders requesting to include Other Shares in such registration statement based on the pro rata percentage of Other Shares held by such Other Selling Shareholders, assuming conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such reduction shall reduce the value of the Registrable Securities of the Holders included in such registration below 30% of the total value of securities included in such registration, unless such offering is the Company’s Initial Public Offering and such registration does not include shares of any other selling shareholders (excluding shares registered for the account of the Company), in which event any or all of the Registrable Securities of the Holders may be excluded.
If a person who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided above does not agree to the terms of any such underwriting, such person shall also be excluded therefrom by written notice from the Company or the underwriter. The Registrable Securities or other securities so excluded shall also be withdrawn from such registration. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

7



(c)      Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration.
2.3      Registration on Form S-3 .
(a)      Request for Form S‑3 Registration. After its initial public offering, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form or forms. After the Company has qualified for the use of Form S-3, in addition to the rights contained in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2 and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 2.3, if the Company shall receive from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities a written request that the Company effect any registration on Form S‑3 or any similar short form registration statement with respect to all or part of the Registrable Securities (such request shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be disposed of and the intended methods of disposition of such shares by such Holder or Holders), the Company will take all such action with respect to such Registrable Securities as required by Section 2.1(a)(i) and 2.1(a)(ii).
(b)      Limitations on Form S‑3 Registration. The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.3:
(i)      In the circumstances described in either Sections 2.1(b)(i), 2.1(b)(iii) or 2.1(b)(v);
(ii)      If the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) on Form S‑3 at an aggregate price to the public of less than $5,000,000; or
(iii)      If, in a given twelve-month period, the Company has effected one such registration in such period.
(c)      Deferral. The provisions of Section 2.1(c) shall apply to any registration pursuant to this Section 2.3.
(d)      Underwriting. If the Holders of Registrable Securities requesting registration under this Section 2.3 intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, the provisions of Section 2.1(e) shall apply to such registration. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be counted as requests for registration or registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.
2.4      Expenses of Registration . All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with registrations pursuant to Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.3 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered or because a sufficient number of Holders shall have withdrawn so that the minimum offering conditions set forth in Sections 2.1 and 2.3 are no longer satisfied (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata among each other based on the number of Registrable Securities requested to be so registered), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to a demand registration pursuant to Section 2.1; provided, however, in the event that a withdrawal by the Holders is based upon material adverse information relating to the Company that is different from the information known or available (upon request from the Company or otherwise) to the Holders requesting registration at the time of their request for registration under Section

8



2.1, such registration shall not be treated as a counted registration for purposes of Section 2.1, even though the Holders do not bear the Registration Expenses for such registration. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holders shall be borne by the holders of securities included in such registration pro rata among each other on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities so registered.
2.5      Registration Procedures . In the case of each registration effected by the Company pursuant to Section 2, the Company will keep each Holder advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the completion thereof. At its expense, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to:
(a)      Keep such registration effective for a period ending on the earlier of the date which is 60 days from the effective date of the registration statement or such time as the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto;
(b)      To the extent the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (a “ WKSI ”) at the time any request for registration is submitted to the Company in accordance with Section 2.3, (i) if so requested, file an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (an “ automatic shelf registration statement ”) to effect such registration, and (ii) remain a WKSI (and not become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)) during the period during which such automatic shelf registration statement is required to remain effective in accordance with this Agreement;
(c)      Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement for the period set forth in subsection (a) above;
(d)      Furnish such number of prospectuses, including any preliminary prospectuses, and other documents incident thereto, including any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus, as a Holder from time to time may reasonably request;
(e)      Use its reasonable best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdiction as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided , that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions;
(f)      Notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in light of the circumstances then existing, and following such notification promptly prepare and furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in light of the circumstances then existing;
(g)      Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to such registration statement and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration;

9



(h)      Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed; and
(i)      In connection with any underwritten offering pursuant to a registration statement filed pursuant to Section 2.1, enter into an underwriting agreement in form reasonably necessary to effect the offer and sale of Ordinary Shares, provided such underwriting agreement contains reasonable and customary provisions, and provided further , that each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.
2.6      Indemnification . To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers, partners, legal counsel and accountants and each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each other such Holder, and each of their officers, directors and partners, and each person controlling each other such Holder, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on: (i) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any prospectus, offering circular or other document (including any related registration statement, notification, or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or (ii) any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and such Holders, directors, officers, partners, legal counsel and accountants, persons, underwriters, or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided , however , that the obligations of such Holder hereunder shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and provided that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 2.6 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.
(a)      Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 2.6 (the “ Indemnified Party ”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2.6, to the extent such failure is not prejudicial. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

(b)      If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. No person or entity will be required under this Section 2.6(c) to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds from the offering received by such person or entity, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such person or entity. No person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.
2.7      Information by Holder. Each Holder of Registrable Securities shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification, or compliance referred to in this Section 2.

Each such Significant Holder shall have such other access to management and information as is necessary for it to comply with applicable laws and regulations and reporting obligations. The Company shall not be required to disclose details of contracts with or work performed for specific customers and other business partners where to do so would violate confidentiality obligations to those parties. Significant Holders may exercise their rights under this Section 3.1(b) only for purposes reasonably related to their interests under this Agreement and related agreements. The rights granted pursuant to this Section 3.1(b) may not be assigned or otherwise conveyed by the Significant Holders or by any subsequent transferee of any such rights without the prior written consent of the Company except as authorized in this Section 3.1(b).
3.2      Confidentiality.

SECTION 4.
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL – NEW SECURITIES
4.1      Exercise by Significant Holders. The Company hereby grants to each Significant Holder the right of first refusal to purchase its pro rata share of New Securities (as defined in this Section 4.1(a)) which the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue after the date of this Agreement. A Significant Holder’s pro rata share, for purposes of this right of first refusal, is equal to the ratio of (a) the number of Ordinary Shares owned by such Significant Holder immediately prior to the issuance of New Securities (assuming full conversion of the Shares and full conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, rights, options and warrants held by such Significant Holder) to (b) the total number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of New Securities (assuming full conversion of the Shares and full conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, rights, options and warrants). Each Significant Holder shall have a right of over-allotment such that if any Significant Holder fails to exercise its right hereunder to purchase its pro rata share of New Securities, the other Significant Holders may purchase the non-purchasing Significant Holder’s portion on a pro rata basis. This right of first refusal shall be subject to the following provisions:
(a)      New Securities ” shall mean any shares (including Ordinary Shares) of the Company whether now authorized or not, and rights, convertible securities, options or warrants to purchase such shares, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, exercisable or convertible into shares; provided that the term “ New Securities ” does not include:
(i)      the Shares;
(ii)      the Exempted Securities; and
(iii)      Common Shares issued in an Initial Public Offering.
(b)      In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall give each Significant Holder written notice of its intention, describing the type of New Securities, and their price and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. Each Significant Holder shall have 10 days after any such notice is mailed or delivered to agree to purchase such Holder’s pro rata share of such New Securities and to indicate whether such Holder desires to exercise its over-allotment option for the price and upon the terms specified in the notice by giving written notice to the Company, in substantially the form attached as Schedule 1, and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased.
(c)      In the event the Holders fail to exercise fully the right of first refusal and over-allotment rights, if any, within said 10-day period (the “ Election Period ”), the Company shall have 90 days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of New Securities covered thereby shall be closed, if at all, within 90 days from the date of said agreement) to sell that portion of the New Securities with respect to which the Significant Holders’ right of first refusal option set forth in this Section 4.1 was not exercised, at a price and upon terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Company’s notice to Significant Holders delivered pursuant to Section 4.1(b). In the event the Company has not sold within such 90-day period following the Election Period, or such 90-day period following the date of said agreement, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities, without first again offering such securities to the Significant Holders in the manner provided in this Section 4.1.

16



(d)      The right of first refusal granted under this Section 4 shall expire upon, and shall not be applicable to, the Company’s Initial Public Offering.
(e)      A Holder will not have a right of first refusal to purchase a pro rata share of New Securities in accordance with this Section 4 and will not be a Significant Holder for purposes of the right of first refusal granted under this Section 4 if, and for so long as, the Holder, any of its directors, executive officers, other officers that may serve as a director or officer of any company in which it invests, general partners or managing members or any person that would be deemed a beneficial owner of the securities of the Company held by the Holder (in accordance with Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act) is subject to any Bad Actor Disqualification, except as set forth in Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3) under the Securities Act.

All computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which such Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which such Loan or such portion is paid.
2.09      Evidence of Debt.
The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each such promissory note shall (i) in the case of the Term A Loans, be in the form of Exhibit B - 1 (a “ Term A Note ”), (ii) in the case of the Term B-1 Loans, be in the form of Exhibit B - 2 (a “ Term B-1 Note ”), (iii) in the case of the Term B-2 Loans, be in the form of Exhibit B - 3 (a “ Term B-2 Note ”), (iv) in the case of the Term B-3 Loans, be in the form of Exhibit B - 4 (a “ Term B-3 Note ”) and (v) in the case of the Term C Loans, be in the form of Exhibit B - 5 (a “ Term C Note ”). Each Lender may attach schedules to its Notes and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.
2.10      Payments Generally.
(a) General . All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or (except as expressly provided in Section 3.01 ) deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Subject to Section 9.03 , all payments of principal, interest, prepayment premiums and fees on the Loans and all other Obligations payable by any Loan Party under the Loan Documents shall be due, without any presentment thereof, directly to the Lenders, at the respective Lending Offices of the Lenders; provided , that , if at the time of any such payment a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata share of such payment shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent. The Loan Parties will make such payments in Dollars, in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date due, marked for attention as indicated, or in such other manner or to such other account in any United States bank as the Lenders may from time to time direct in writing. All payments received by the Lenders after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest.

50


(b) Obligations of Lenders Several . The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 11.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 11.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 11.04(c) .
(c) Funding Source . Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.
2.11      Sharing of Payments by Lenders.
If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on its portion of any of the Loans or prepayment premium in connection therewith resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Loans and accrued interest thereon and prepayment premium in connection therewith greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the portions of the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of, accrued interest on and prepayment premium in connection with their respective portions of the Loans and other amounts owing them; provided , that :
(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
(ii) the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its portion of the Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall apply).
Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
2.12      Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Adjustments . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
(i) Waivers and Amendment . The Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 11.01 .

51


(ii) Reallocation of Payments . Any payment of principal, interest, fees or any other amount received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.08 ), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first , to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second , as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third , if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth , to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth , so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth , to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided , that , if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.03 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(b) Defaulting Lender Cure . If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided , that , no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided , further , that , except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.
2.13      Right of First Offer.
(a) If the Borrower or any Subsidiary contemplates undertaking an issuance of any Indebtedness (other than (x) Indebtedness permitted under Section 8.03(a) , (c) , (d) , (e) , (f) , (j) , (k) or (m) or (y) Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount below the Threshold Amount), then, not less than thirty (30) Business Days prior to the proposed date of such issuance, the Borrower shall provide written notice (a “ Debt Issuance Notice ”) thereof to the Lenders, and shall deliver promptly to the Lenders such information concerning such issuance as the Lenders may reasonably request.

52


(b) For a period of twenty (20) Business Days (the “ Exclusivity Period ”) after receipt by the Lenders of a Debt Issuance Notice, the Lenders shall have the exclusive option, but not the obligation, to propose the material terms and conditions (the “ Proposed Terms ”) under which they would be willing to provide such Indebtedness by delivering written notice (a “ Proposed Term Sheet ”) thereof to the Borrower, setting forth such Proposed Terms. Failure by the Lenders to deliver a Proposed Term Sheet within the applicable Exclusivity Period shall be deemed an election by the Lenders not to provide such Indebtedness. If the Lenders deliver a Proposed Term Sheet to the Borrower that purports to provide not less than the aggregate amount of financing contemplated by the issuance contemplated in the Debt Issuance Notice, then neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary may then undertake any such issuance with any other Person unless such issuance with such other Person (x) includes financial covenants and events of default and other terms including amortization, mandatory prepayments and maturity dates that are more favorable (taken as a whole) to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries than the Indebtedness contemplated by the Proposed Term Sheet (such determination to be made by the Borrower in good faith) and (y) has an All-In-Yield that is less than the All-In-Yield of the Indebtedness contemplated by the Proposed Term Sheet; provided , that , prior to undertaking any such issuance with any other Person, the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall provide the Lenders with at least ten (10) Business Days’ notice thereof (and such information with respect thereto as the Lenders shall reasonably request) and afford the Lenders a period of five (5) Business Days thereafter to propose a Proposed Term Sheet containing economic terms at least as favorable to the Borrower or such Subsidiary as the economic terms of such Indebtedness.
2.14      Term C Facility.
At any time on or after the Funding Date but prior to June 30, 2020, upon prior written notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may establish the Term C Facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed TEN MILLION DOLLARS ($10,000,000); provided , that ,
(a) (i) the aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing under the Term C Facility shall be in a principal amount of $2,500,000 and (ii) there shall not be more than four (4) Borrowings under the Term C Facility;
(b) the Borrower shall have drawn the full amount of the Term B-1 Facility, the Term B-2 Facility and the Term B-3 Facility pursuant to Section 2.01(b) ;
(c) no existing Lender shall be under any obligation to make any Term C Loan and any such decision whether to make a Term C Loan shall be in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion;
(d) (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and be continuing at the time of the establishment of the Term C Facility, (ii) the Term C Facility shall only be used to fund Approved Strategic Investments and to pay fees and expenses in connection therewith and (iii) the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.04 shall have been satisfied prior to or contemporaneously with funding of any Term C Loans;
(e) the maturity date for the Term C Facility shall be the Maturity Date and the scheduled principal amortization payments under the Term C Facility shall be as set forth in Section 2.05(e) ;
(f) the Borrower shall have paid all fees required to be paid in connection therewith, whether pursuant to the Fee Letter or otherwise;

53


(g) the Term C Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties shall have entered into such technical amendments to this Agreement as are necessary, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion, to effect the inclusion of the Term C Facility herein;
(h) the Borrower shall have obtained commitments for the aggregate amount of the Term C Facility from existing Lenders pursuant to joinder documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and
(i) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the date of such institution and effectiveness (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to the Term C Facility and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to the Term C Facility, (x) the representations and warranties contained in Article VI and the other Investments Documents are true and correct in all respects on and as of the date of such increase, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.14 , the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 6.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a)(i) and (b) , respectively, of Section 7.01 and (y) no Default or Event of Default exists.

ARTICLE III.
TAXES
3.01      Taxes.
(a) Except as required by applicable Law, all payments of principal and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp, documentary, property or franchise taxes, VAT and other taxes, fees, duties, levies, assessments, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever (including interest and penalties thereon) imposed by any taxing authority, excluding (x) taxes imposed on or measured by net income imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under which a Recipient is organized or in which such Recipient has its principal office, applicable Lending Office or with which such Recipient otherwise has a present or former connection (other than solely as the result of entering into any of the Loan Documents or taking any action thereunder), (y) U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of a Recipient with respect to an applicable interest in a Loan or Commitment pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which (i) such Recipient acquires such interest in the Loan or Commitment (other than pursuant to an assignment request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 11.13 ) or (ii) such Recipient changes its Lending Office, except in each case to the extent that, pursuant to this Section 3.01 , amounts with respect to such taxes were payable either to such Recipient’s assignor immediately before such Recipient became a party hereto or to such Recipient immediately before it changed its Lending Office and (z) U.S. federal withholding tax imposed under FATCA (all non-excluded items being called “ Taxes ”). If any withholding or deduction of any Taxes from any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable Law, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such withholding or deduction and shall pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall

54


promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority and (iii) the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased by such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the applicable Recipient will equal the full amount such Recipient would have received had no such withholding or deduction for Taxes been required.
(b) The Borrower or the Guarantors, as applicable, shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Taxes (including Taxes imposed on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01 ) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment by such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
(c) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax, including under FATCA, with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.01(c)(ii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii) Each Lender that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code that purports to become an assignee of an interest pursuant to Section 11.06 after the Effective Date (each such Lender a “ Foreign Lender ”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, execute and deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date that such Lender becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), one or more (as the Borrower or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request) duly completed and executed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY and other certification documents from each beneficial owner (as applicable). Each Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall execute and deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date such Lender becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), one or more (as the Borrower or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request) duly completed and executed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is not subject to United States backup withholding.

55


(iii) The Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to this Section 3.01 with respect to taxes attributable to the failure of such Foreign Lender to comply with this Section 3.01(c) , and such taxes shall be excluded from the definition of Taxes.
(d) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update such form or certification or promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its inability to do so.
(e) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01 ), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (e) , in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (e) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
3.02      Increased Costs.
(a) Increased Costs Generally . If any Change in Law shall:
(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.02(d) ;
(ii) subject any Recipient to any taxes (other than (A) Taxes that are covered by Section 3.01(b) and (B) taxes that are excluded from the definition of Taxes in Section 3.01(a) ) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than taxes) affecting this Agreement;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount

56


or amounts as will compensate such Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) Capital Requirements . If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c) Certificates for Reimbursement . A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(d) Reserves on Loans . The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided , that , the Borrower shall have received at least ten (10) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice ten (10) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice.
(e) Delay in Requests . Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided , that , the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

57


3.03      Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office . If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.02 or requires the Borrower to pay any Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 , or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02 , then at the request of the Borrower such Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.02 , as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02 , as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b) Replacement of Lenders . If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.02 , or if the Borrower is required to pay any Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 3.03(a) , the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 11.13 .
3.04      Illegality.
If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to perform any of its obligations hereunder or to make, maintain or fund or charge interest with respect to any Borrowing, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Borrowing or to make Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay the Loans immediately. Upon any such prepayment, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid.
3.05      Three-Month LIBOR Unavailability Period .
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that a LIBOR Unavailability Period has commenced and is continuing, then, reasonably promptly after such determination, the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower notice thereof and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace Three-Month LIBOR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “ LIBOR Successor Rate ”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth (5 th ) Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders

58


comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment. It is understood and agreed that, for all purposes of this Agreement, once commenced, a “LIBOR Unavailability Period” shall be deemed to exist and be continuing unless and until such amendment has become effective in accordance with the terms hereof.
During the continuance of any LIBOR Unavailability Period, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans with an Interest Rate calculated based on Three-Month LIBOR shall be suspended and the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Loans with an Interest Rate calculated based on Three-Month LIBOR or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Loans with an Interest Rate calculated based on the Prime Rate.
Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.
3.06      Survival
All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments, repayment of all Obligations and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE IV.
GUARANTY
4.01      The Guaranty.
Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantees to each Secured Party as hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Guarantors hereby further agree that if any of the Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise), the Guarantors will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Loan Documents, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under Debtor Relief Laws or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law.
4.02      Obligations Unconditional.
The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 4.01 are joint and several, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents, or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or any substitution, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any law or regulation or other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 4.02 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under

59


any and all circumstances. Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower or any other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article IV until such time as the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted) have been paid in full and the Commitments have expired or terminated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

9.02      Remedies Upon Event of Default.
If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders, take any or all of the following actions:
(a)      declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated;
(b)      declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties; and
(c)      exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents;
provided , however , that , upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
If the Obligations are accelerated for any reason, the prepayment premium required by Section 2.03(d) will also be due and payable as though such Obligations were voluntarily prepaid and any discount on the Loans shall be deemed earned in full and, in each case, shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender’s lost profits as a result thereof. Any prepayment premium required by Section 2.03(d) payable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender as the result of the early termination and the Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The prepayment premium required by Section 2.03(d) shall also be payable and any discount on the Loans shall be deemed earned in full, in each case, in the event that the Obligations (and/or this Agreement) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREPAYMENT PREMIUM AND ANY DISCOUNT ON THE LOANS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Borrower expressly agrees that (i) the prepayment premium required by Section 2.03(d) and any discount on the Loans provided for herein is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel, (ii) the prepayment premium required by Section 2.03(d) and any discount on the Loans shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (iii) there has been a course of conduct between the Lenders and the Borrower giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the prepayment premium required by Section 2.03(d) and any discount on the Loans and (iv) the Borrower shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Borrower expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the prepayment premium required by Section 2.03(d) and any discount on the Loans to the Lenders as herein described is a material inducement to the Lenders to make the Loans hereunder.

109


9.03      Application of Funds.
After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 9.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in the proviso to Section 9.02 ), any amounts received by any Lender or the Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:
First , to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article III ) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;
Second , to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders) arising under the Loan Documents and amounts payable under Article III , ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;
Third , to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on and prepayment premium with respect to the Loans, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third held by them;
Fourth , to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid principal of the Loans, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; and
Last , the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
(b)      The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative

110


Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article X and Article XI (including Section 11.04(c) , as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.
10.02      Rights as a Lender.
The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
10.03      Exculpatory Provisions.
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(a)      shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(b)      shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided , that , the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(c)      shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the

111


circumstances as provided in Section 11.01 and Section 9.02 ) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.

The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent at any time by giving thirty (30) days advance notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and, thereafter, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.

10.08      Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.
In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a)      to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 11.04 ) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

10.09      Collateral and Guaranty Matters.
The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion,
(a)      to release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of all unused Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted), (ii) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any Involuntary Disposition or (iii) as approved in accordance with Section 11.01 ;

(c)      to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents.
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, pursuant to this Section 10.09 .

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 11.06 , from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 , 3.02 , 3.04 and 11.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section 11.06 .
(c)      Register . The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative

122


Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “ Register ”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d)      Participations . Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “ Participant ”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided , that , (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 11.04(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided , that , such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 11.01(a) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 , 3.02 and 3.04 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(c) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 11.06 ; provided , that , such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.03 and 11.13 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.02 , with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 11.13 with respect to any Participant. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.08 as though it were a Lender; provided , that , such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender.
(e)      Certain Pledges . Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided , that , no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

123


11.07      Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and will be instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) as may be reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Investment Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Investment Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 11.07 , to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to a Loan Party and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of the Borrower, (i) to the members of its investment committee and its limited partners (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential) or (j) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.07 or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower.
For purposes of this Section 11.07 , “ Information ” means all information received from a Loan Party or any Subsidiary relating to the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Loan Party or any Subsidiary; provided , that , in the case of information received from a Loan Party or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.07 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
11.08      Set-off.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch office or Affiliate of

124


such Lender different from the branch office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided , that , in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section 11.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided , that , the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
11.09      Interest Rate Limitation.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Investment Document, the interest (actual or deemed) paid or agreed to be paid under the Investment Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “ Maximum Rate ”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest (including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest) in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
11.10      Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Investment Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 5.01 , this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging means (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
11.11      Survival of Representations and Warranties.
All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Investment Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the

125


Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.
11.12      Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement or the other Investment Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Investment Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.12 , if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
11.13      Replacement of Lenders.
If the Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.03 , or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.06 ), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.02 ) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided , that :
(a)      such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of (x) the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (other than prepayment premium) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (y) the prepayment premium required by Section 2.03(d) from the Borrower, as if such assignment was a prepayment of one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding principal amount of such assignor’s Loans on the effective date of such assignment;
(b)      in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.02 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01 , such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(c)      such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and
(d)      in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender’s failure to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document, the applicable replacement bank, financial institution or Fund consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination; provided , that , the failure by such Non-Consenting Lender to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption shall not impair the validity of the removal of such Non-Consenting Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans pursuant to this Section 11.13 shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Non-Consenting Lender of an Assignment and Assumption.

126


A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enter and remain upon the various premises of the Grantors without cost or charge to the Administrative Agent and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Grantors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise. In addition, the


11


Administrative Agent may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order to effectively collect or liquidate such Collateral.

(d)     Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies . Failure by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Security Agreement, any other Loan Document, any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or as provided by law, or any delay by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties shall only be granted as provided herein. To the extent permitted by law, neither the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties, nor any party acting as attorney for the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than their gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties under this Security Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties may have.

(e)     Retention of Collateral . To the extent permitted by applicable law, in addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in compliance with Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC (or any successor section) or otherwise complying with the requirements of applicable law of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain all or any portion of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have accepted or retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason.

(f)     Deficiency . In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties are legally entitled, the Grantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency (subject to Section 23 hereof), together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Grantors or to whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto.

9.     Rights of the Administrative Agent .

(a)     Power of Attorney . In addition to other powers of attorney contained herein, each Grantor hereby designates and appoints the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, and each of its designees or agents, as attorney-in-fact of such Grantor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the following actions upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(i)    to demand, collect, settle, compromise and adjust, and give discharges and releases concerning the Collateral, all as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate;

(ii)    to commence and prosecute any actions at any court for the purposes of collecting any of the Collateral and enforcing any other right in respect thereof;



12


(iii)    to defend, settle or compromise any action, suit or proceeding brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharge or release as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate;

(iv)    to receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to a Grantor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to the Collateral on behalf of and in the name of such Grantor, or securing, or relating to such Collateral;

(v)    to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral;

(vi)    to direct any parties liable for any payment in connection with any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all monies due and to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct;

(vii)    to receive payment of and receipt for any and all monies, claims and other amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral;

(viii)    to maintain (including determining not to renew, pursue or further file) and enforce all IP Rights, forming any part of the Collateral;

(ix)    to sell, assign, transfer, license, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any Collateral or the goods or services that have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes;

(x)    to adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy relating thereto;

(xi)    to execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, financing statements, renewal financing statements, security and pledge agreements, affidavits, notices and other agreements, instruments and documents that the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate in order to perfect and maintain the security interests and liens granted in this Security Agreement and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated therein;

(xii)    to institute any foreclosure proceedings that the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate; and

(xiii)    to do and perform all such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate or convenient in connection with the Collateral.

This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for so long as any of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted) shall remain outstanding and until all of the Commitments relating thereto shall have been terminated. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Administrative Agent in this Security Agreement and shall not be liable for any failure


13


to do so or any delay in doing so. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of attorney is conferred on the Administrative Agent solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral.

(b)     Releases of Collateral . If any Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Liens and security interests of the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to such Collateral shall automatically terminate, and the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases and other documents and take such other action, reasonably necessary to evidence the release of the Liens created hereby or by any other Collateral Document on such Collateral.

(c)     The Administrative Agent’s Duty of Care . Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Collateral while being held by the Administrative Agent hereunder and to account for all proceeds thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Grantors shall be responsible for preservation of all rights in the Collateral, and the Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the Grantors. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Collateral. In the event of a public or private sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to any matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking any steps to clean, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.

10.     Application of Proceeds . Upon the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement, any payments in respect of the Secured Obligations and any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Administrative Agent or any of the Secured Parties in cash or its equivalent, will be applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement, and each Grantor irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of such payments and proceeds and acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such payments and proceeds in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, notwithstanding any entry to the contrary upon any of its books and records.

11.     Continuing Agreement .

(a)    This Security Agreement shall be a continuing agreement in every respect and shall remain in full force and effect so long as any of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted) remain outstanding and until all of the Commitments relating thereto have been terminated. Upon payment or other satisfaction of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted) and termination of the Commitments related thereto, this Security Agreement and the liens and security interests of the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be automatically


14


terminated and the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request and at the expense of the Grantors, execute and deliver all UCC termination statements and/or other documents and releases reasonably requested by the Grantors evidencing such termination and return to Grantors all Collateral in its possession. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all releases and indemnities provided hereunder shall survive termination of this Security Agreement.

(b)    This Security Agreement shall continue to be effective or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, all as though such payment had not been made; provided , that , in the event payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in defending and enforcing such reinstatement shall be deemed to be included as a part of the Secured Obligations.

12.     Amendments and Waivers . This Security Agreement and the provisions hereof may not be amended, waived, modified, changed, discharged or terminated except as set forth in Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement.

13.     Successors in Interest . This Security Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder, to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their successors and permitted assigns; provided , however , that , none of the Grantors may assign its rights or delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the requisite Lenders under the Credit Agreement.

14.     Notices . All notices required or permitted to be given under this Security Agreement shall be given as provided in Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement.

15.     Counterparts . This Security Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Security Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging means (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Security Agreement.

16.     Headings . Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Security Agreement.

17.     Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Venue, Service of Process, Waiver of Right to Jury Trial . The terms of Section 11.14 of the Credit Agreement and Section 11.15 of the Credit Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, waiver of venue, service of process and waiver of the right to a jury trial are each incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis , and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

18.     Severability . If any provision of this Security Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor to negotiate in good faith to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of


15


which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

19.     Entirety . This Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any proposal letters or correspondence relating to the Loan Documents, any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or the transactions contemplated herein and therein.

20.     Survival . All representations and warranties of the Grantors hereunder shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, the delivery of the Notes and the extension of credit thereunder or in connection therewith.

21.     Other Security . To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral (including, without limitation, real and other personal property and securities owned by a Grantor) or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then to the extent permitted by applicable law the Administrative Agent shall have the right to proceed against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or the Secured Obligations or any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties under this Security Agreement, under any of the other Loan Documents or under any other document relating to the Secured Obligations.

22.     Rights of Required Lenders . All rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder, if not exercised by the Administrative Agent, may be exercised by the Required Lenders.

23.     Joint and Several Obligations of Grantors .

(a)    Subject to subsection (c) of this Section 23 , each of the Grantors is accepting joint and several liability hereunder in consideration of the financial accommodation to be provided by the Secured Parties, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Grantors and in consideration of the undertakings of each of the Grantors to accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each of them.

(b)    Subject to subsection (c) of this Section 23 , each of the Grantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Grantors with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations arising under this Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Secured Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Grantors without preferences or distinction among them.

(c)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any other of the Loan Documents or in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, the obligations of each Guarantor under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents


16


relating to the Secured Obligations shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law.

24.     Joinder . At any time after the date of this Security Agreement, one or more additional Subsidiaries may become party hereto by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement. Immediately upon such execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement (and without any further action), each such additional Subsidiary will become a party to this Security Agreement as a “Grantor” and have all the rights and obligations of a Grantor hereunder and this Security Agreement and the schedules hereto shall be deemed amended by such Joinder Agreement.

25.     Intercreditor Agreement . The Liens, security interests and rights granted pursuant to this Security Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of any intercreditor agreement entered into by and between the Administrative Agent and the Permitted Senior Revolving Credit Lender, if any.

This Indemnification Agreement (this “ Agreement ”) is dated as of __________, 2018 (the “ Effective Date ”), and is between Establishment Labs Holdings Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (the “ Company ”), and ______________________ (“ Indemnitee ”).
RECITALS
A.    Indemnitee’s service to the Company substantially benefits the Company.
B.    Individuals are reluctant to serve as directors or officers of companies or in certain other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or indemnification against the risks of claims and actions against them arising out of such service.
C.    Indemnitee does not regard the protection currently provided by applicable law, the Company’s governing documents and any insurance as adequate under the present circumstances, and Indemnitee may not be willing to serve as a director or officer without additional protection.
D.    In order to induce Indemnitee to continue to provide services to the Company, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company to contractually obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf of, Indemnitee as permitted by applicable law.
E.    This Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the indemnification provided in the Company’s memorandum and articles of association and applicable law, and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and this Agreement shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor shall this Agreement be deemed to limit, diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder.

(ii)      Change in Board Composition. During any period of two consecutive years (not including any period prior to the execution of this Agreement), individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Company’s board of directors, and any new directors (other than a director designated



by a person who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in Sections 1(b)(i), 1(b)(iii) or 1(b)(iv)) whose election by the board of directors or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors;
(iii)      Corporate Transactions. The effective date of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other entity, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting shares of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting shares of the surviving entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting shares of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and with the power to elect at least a majority of the board of directors or other governing body of such surviving entity;

(e)    if prohibited by applicable law.
8. Advances of Expenses. The Company shall advance the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding prior to its final disposition, and such advancement shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than 30 days, after the receipt by the Company of a written statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time (which shall include invoices received by Indemnitee in connection with such Expenses but, in the case of invoices in connection with legal services, any references to legal work performed or to expenditure made that would cause Indemnitee to waive any privilege accorded by applicable law shall not be included with the invoice). Advances shall be unsecured and interest free and made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay such advances. Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay any advance to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. This Section 8 shall not apply to the extent advancement is prohibited by law and shall not apply to any Proceeding (or any part of

-5-


any Proceeding) for which indemnity is not permitted under this Agreement, but shall apply to any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) referenced in Section 7(b) or 7(c) prior to a determination that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.
9. Procedures for Notification and Defense of Claim.
(a)    Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing of any matter with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or advancement of Expenses as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of notice thereof. The written notification to the Company shall include, in reasonable detail, a description of the nature of the Proceeding and the facts underlying the Proceeding. The failure by Indemnitee to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to Indemnitee hereunder or otherwise than under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Company shall not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights.
(b)      If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a Proceeding pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect that may be applicable to the Proceeding, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of the Proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable policies. The Company shall thereafter take all commercially-reasonable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
(c)      In the event the Company may be obligated to make any indemnity in connection with a Proceeding, the Company shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel approved by Indemnitee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of its election to do so. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee for any fees or expenses of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same Proceeding. Notwithstanding the Company’s assumption of the defense of any such Proceeding, the Company shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of Indemnitee’s separate counsel to the extent (i) the employment of separate counsel by Indemnitee is authorized by the Company, (ii) counsel for the Company or Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there is a conflict of interest between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense such that Indemnitee needs to be separately represented, (iii) the Company is not financially or legally able to perform its indemnification obligations or (iv) the Company shall not have retained, or shall not continue to retain, counsel to defend such Proceeding. Regardless of any provision in this Agreement, Indemnitee shall have the right to employ counsel in any Proceeding at Indemnitee’s personal expense. The Company shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Company.
(d)      Indemnitee shall give the Company such information and cooperation in connection with the Proceeding as may be reasonably appropriate.
(e)    The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee for any settlement of any Proceeding (or any part thereof) without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
(f)      The Company shall not settle any Proceeding (or any part thereof) in a manner that imposes any penalty or liability on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

10. Procedures upon Application for Indemnification.
(a)      To obtain indemnification, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and as is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of the Proceeding. Any delay in providing the request will not relieve the Company from its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent such failure is prejudicial.
(b)      Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 10(a), a determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case (i) if a Change in Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Company’s board of directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee or (ii) if a Change in Control shall not have occurred, (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Company’s board of directors, (B) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Company’s board of directors, (C) if there are no such Disinterested Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Company’s board of directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee or (D) if so directed by the Company’s board of directors, by the shareholders of the Company. If it is determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within twenty days after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information that is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and that is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(c)      In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 10(b), the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 10(c). If a Change in Control shall not have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Company’s board of directors, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him or her of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Company’s board of directors, in which event the preceding sentence shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be, may, within ten days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided , however , that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 1 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within 30 days after the later of (i) submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 10(a) hereof and (ii) the final disposition of the Proceeding, the parties have not agreed upon an Independent Counsel, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection which shall have been made

-7-


by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the court or by such other person as the court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 10(b) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement, the Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).
(d)      The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of any Independent Counsel and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.
(e)      Notwithstanding a final determination by any reviewing party identified in Section 10(b) above that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification with respect to a specific Proceeding, Indemnitee shall have the right to apply to the courts of the British Virgin Islands, for the purpose of enforcing Indemnitee’s right to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Company’s memorandum and articles of association or BVI Law.
11. Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings.
(a)      In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person, persons or entity making such determination shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, and the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption.
(b)      The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
(c)      For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith to the extent Indemnitee relied in good faith on (i) the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, (ii) information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, (iii) the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or its board of directors or counsel selected by any committee of the board of directors or (iv) information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant, an appraiser, investment banker or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise or its board of directors or any committee of the board of directors. The provisions of this Section 11(c) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.
(d)      Neither the knowledge, actions nor failure to act of any other director, officer, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.

12. Remedies of Indemnitee.
(a)     Subject to Section 12(e), in the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 8 or 12(d) of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement within 90 days after the later of the receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification or the final disposition of the Proceeding, (iv) payment of indemnification pursuant to this Agreement is not made (A) within twenty days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or (B) with respect to indemnification pursuant to Sections 4, 5 and 12(d) of this Agreement, within 30 days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, or (v) the Company or any other person or entity takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation or other action or proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to Indemnitee hereunder, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction of his or her entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication in accordance with this Agreement.
(b )     Neither (i) the failure of the Company, its board of directors, any committee or subgroup of the board of directors, Independent Counsel or shareholders to have made a determination that indemnification of Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor (ii) an actual determination by the Company, its board of directors, any committee or subgroup of the board of directors, Independent Counsel or shareholders that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Indemnitee has or has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 12 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, on the merits, and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 12, the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be.
(c)      To the fullest extent not prohibited by law, the Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 12 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 12, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statements not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.
(d)     To the extent not prohibited by law, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses that are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action for indemnification or advancement of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company to the extent Indemnitee is successful in such action, and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than 30 days, after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor) advance such Expenses to Indemnitee, subject to the provisions of Section 8.

-9-


(e)      Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement to indemnification shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding.
13. Contribution. To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amounts incurred by Indemnitee, whether for Expenses, judgments, fines or amounts paid or to be paid in settlement, in connection with (a) any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement in which the Company and Indemnitee are held to be jointly liable, (i) all such amounts incurred by Indemnitee and will waive and relinquish any right of contribution it may have against Indemnitee, or (ii) if such contribution is not permissible under applicable law, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (x) the relative benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the events and transactions giving rise to such Proceeding; and (y) the relative fault of Indemnitee and the Company (and its other directors, officers, employees and agents) in connection with such events and transactions, or (b) any other claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the events and transactions giving rise to such Proceeding; and (ii) the relative fault of Indemnitee and the Company (and its other directors, officers, employees and agents) in connection with such events and transactions.
14. Non-exclusivity. The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Company’s memorandum and articles of association, any agreement, a vote of shareholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. To the extent that a change in BVI Law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Company’s memorandum and articles of association and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change, subject to the restrictions expressly set forth herein or therein. Except as expressly set forth herein, no right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Except as expressly set forth herein, the assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.
15. Primary Responsibility. The Company acknowledges that Indemnitee may have certain rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by third parties (collectively, the “ Secondary Indemnitors ”). The Company agrees that, as between the Company and the Secondary Indemnitors, the Company is primarily responsible for amounts required to be indemnified or advanced under the Company’s memorandum and articles of association or this Agreement and any obligation of the Secondary Indemnitors to provide indemnification or advancement for the same amounts is secondary to those Company obligations. To the extent not in contravention of any insurance policy or policies providing liability or other insurance for the Company or any director, trustee, general partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company or any other Enterprise, the Company waives any right of contribution or subrogation against the Secondary Indemnitors with respect to the liabilities for which the Company is primarily responsible under this Section 15. In the event of any payment by the Secondary Indemnitors of amounts otherwise required to be indemnified or advanced by the Company under the Company’s memorandum and articles of association or this Agreement, the Secondary Indemnitors shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery

-10-


of Indemnitee for indemnification or advancement of expenses under the Company’s memorandum and articles of association or this Agreement or, to the extent such subrogation is unavailable and contribution is found to be the applicable remedy, shall have a right of contribution with respect to the amounts paid; provided, however, that the foregoing sentence will be deemed void if and to the extent that it would violate any applicable insurance policy. The Secondary Indemnitors are express third-party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 15.
16. No Duplication of Payments. Subject to any subrogation rights set forth in Section 15, the Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder (or for which advancement is provided hereunder) if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received payment for such amounts under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.
17. Insurance. To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, trustees, general partners, managing members, officers, employees, agents or fiduciaries of the Company or any other Enterprise, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies to the same extent as the most favorably-insured persons under such policy or policies in a comparable position.
18. Subrogation. In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.
19. Services to the Company. Indemnitee agrees to serve as a director or officer of the Company or, at the request of the Company, as a director, trustee, general partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another Enterprise, for so long as Indemnitee is duly elected or appointed or until Indemnitee tenders his or her resignation or is removed from such position. Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from such position (subject to any other contractual obligation or any obligation imposed by operation of law). This Agreement shall not be deemed an employment contract between the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries or any Enterprise) and Indemnitee. Indemnitee specifically acknowledges that any employment with the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries or any Enterprise) is at will, and Indemnitee may be discharged at any time for any reason, with or without cause, with or without notice, except as may be otherwise expressly provided in any executed, written employment contract between Indemnitee and the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries or any Enterprise), any existing formal severance policies adopted by the Company’s board of directors or, with respect to service as a director or officer of the Company, the Company’s memorandum and articles of association or BVI Law. No such document shall be subject to any oral modification thereof.
20. Duration. This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later of (a) ten years after the date that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a director or officer of the Company a Subsidiary, or as a director, trustee, general partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of any other Enterprise, as applicable; or (b) one year after the final termination of any Proceeding, including any appeal, then pending in respect of which Indemnitee is granted rights of indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and of any proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement relating thereto.
21. Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns, including any direct or indirect successor, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all

-11-


or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators. The Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, by written agreement, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.
22. Severability. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require or shall be construed as requiring the Company to do or fail to do any act in violation of applicable law. The Company’s inability, pursuant to court order or other applicable law, to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including without limitation, each portion of any section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law; (ii) such provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (iii) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby.
23. Enforcement. The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director or officer of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as a director or officer of the Company.
24. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided , however , that this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Company’s obligations to Indemnitee as provided by its memorandum and articles of association, and by applicable law.
25. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or amendment to this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement shall adversely affect any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his or her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
26. Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, sent by facsimile or electronic mail or otherwise delivered by hand, messenger or courier service addressed:
(a)      if to Indemnitee, to Indemnitee’s address, facsimile number or electronic mail address as shown on the signature page of this Agreement or in the Company’s records, as may be updated in accordance with the provisions hereof; or

Each such notice or other communication shall for all purposes of this Agreement be treated as effective or having been given (i) if delivered by hand, messenger or courier service, when delivered (or if sent via a nationally-recognized overnight courier service, freight prepaid, specifying next-business-day delivery, one business day after deposit with the courier), or (ii) if sent via mail, at the earlier of its receipt or five days after the same has been deposited in a regularly-maintained receptacle for the deposit of the United States mail, addressed and mailed as aforesaid, or (iii) if sent via facsimile, upon confirmation of facsimile transfer or, if sent via electronic mail, upon confirmation of delivery when directed to the relevant electronic mail address, if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, or if not sent during normal business hours of the recipient, then on the recipient’s next business day.

This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the British Virgin Islands, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.

ESTABLISHMENT LABS HOLDINGS INC.
2015 Equity Incentive Plan
(Adopted as of December 10, 2015)
1. Purpose . Establishment Labs Holdings Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “ Plan ”), is intended to provide incentives which will attract and retain highly competent persons as officers, directors, key employees and independent contractors of Establishment Labs Holdings Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation (“ Company ”), and its subsidiaries and affiliates, by providing them opportunities to acquire Class A Ordinary Shares, $1.00 par value per share, of the Company (“ Class A Ordinary Shares ”) or to receive monetary payments based on the value of such shares pursuant to the Awards (as defined below) described herein.
2. Participants . Participants will consist of such officers, key employees, directors, advisors, consultants and independent contractors of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, as the Company’s Board of Directors (“ Board ”), in its sole discretion, determine to be significantly responsible for the success and future growth and profitability of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates and whom the Board may designate from time to time to receive Awards under the Plan (“ Participants ”). Designation of a Participant in any year shall not require the Board to designate such person to receive an Award in any other year or, once designated, to receive the same type or amount of Awards as granted to the Participant or any other Participant in any year. The Board shall consider such factors as it deems pertinent in selecting Participants and in determining the amount, type and terms and conditions of their respective Awards. At the Board’s discretion, the Board may delegate to the Committee (as defined below), the authority to designate and select Participants and types of Awards.
3. Administration .
(a) Except for those powers expressly reserved for the Board, the Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board or any subcommittee thereof appointed by the Board to administer the Plan or, if no committee is appointed to administer the Plan, the Board (the “ Committee ”). The Committee is authorized, subject to the provisions of the Plan, to establish such rules and regulations as it deems necessary or appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan and to make such determinations and interpretations and to take such action in connection with the Plan and any Awards granted hereunder as it deems necessary or advisable. All determinations and interpretations made by the Committee shall be binding and conclusive on all Participants and their legal representatives. No member of the Board, and no employee of the Company shall be liable for any act or failure to act hereunder, by any other Board member or employee or by any agent to whom duties in connection with the administration of this Plan have been delegated or, except in circumstances involving his bad faith, gross negligence or fraud, for any act or failure to act by the member or employee.
(b) The Committee may delegate to one or more of its members or to one or more officers of the Company, or to one or more agents or advisors, such administrative duties or powers as it may deem advisable, and the Committee, or any person to whom duties or powers have been delegated as aforesaid, may employ one or more persons to render advice with respect

-1-



to any responsibility the Committee or such person may have under the Plan.

4. Types of Awards . Awards under the Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of (i) Share Options, (ii) Equity Appreciation Rights, (iii) Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units, (iv) Performance Awards and (v) Other Share-Based Awards, each as described below (collectively, “ Awards ”). Each Award shall be made pursuant to a written agreement, certificate, resolution, or such other evidence approved by the Committee that sets forth the terms and conditions of the Awards granted.
5. Shares Reserved under the Plan .
(a)    Subject to adjustment under Section 12 hereof, there is hereby reserved for issuance under the Plan 731,873 Class A Ordinary Shares, which may be authorized but unissued or treasury shares. All shares available under the Plan are available for each type of Award under the Plan.
(b)    If there is a lapse, expiration, termination or cancellation of any Share Option granted under this Plan prior to the issuance of shares in connection with such option, or if shares are issued under the Plan in connection with an Award hereunder and thereafter such shares are reacquired by the Company, those shares may again be used for new Awards under the Plan. In addition, any shares exchanged or surrendered by a Participant as full or partial payment of the exercise price under any Share Option exercised under this Plan, any shares retained by the Company pursuant to a Participant’s tax withholding election, and any shares covered by an Award which is settled in cash, shall be added back to the shares available for Awards under the Plan. The Board shall determine the appropriate methodology for calculating the number of Shares available for issuance pursuant to the Plan.
(c)    The Committee may grant Awards under the Plan in substitution for share and share based awards held by employees, directors, consultants or advisors of another company (an “ Acquired Company ”) in connection with a merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving such Acquired Company and the Company or an Affiliate, or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of property or stock of the Acquired Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the Committee may direct that substitute Awards be granted on such terms and conditions as the Committee considers appropriate in the circumstances. For purposes of this Plan, an “ Affiliate ” means an entity in which the Company has a direct or indirect equity interest, whether now or hereafter existing; provided however, that with respect to an Incentive Share Option, an Affiliate means a “parent corporation” (as defined in Section 424(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”) or a “subsidiary corporation” (as defined in Code Section 424(f)) with respect to the Company, whether now or hereafter existing.
6. Share Options . “ Share Options ” will consist of Awards from the Company, which will enable the holder to purchase a specific number of Class A Ordinary Shares, at set

-2-



terms and at a fixed purchase price. Share Options may be incentive share options within the meaning of Code Section 422 (“ Incentive Share Options ”) or Share Options that do not constitute Incentive Share Options (“ Nonqualified Share Options ”). The Committee will have the authority to grant to any Participant one or more Incentive Share Options, Nonqualified Share Options, or both types of Share Options. Each Share Option shall be evidenced by a written option agreement in such form and shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may approve from time to time, including without limitation the following:
(a)     Exercise Price . Each Share Option granted hereunder shall have such per share exercise price as the Committee may determine at the Date of Grant; provided, however, that other than in the case of a permitted substitution of Share Options under Section 5(c) hereof, the per share exercise price for any Share Options awarded hereunder shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Class A Ordinary Shares on the date the Share Option is granted.
(b)     Payment of Exercise Price . The Committee shall determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising a Share Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Share Option, the Committee shall determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. To the extent approved by the Committee in its discretion and as set out in the applicable Award agreement, the exercise price of a Share Option may be paid (i) in United States dollars in cash or by check; (ii) through delivery of Class A Ordinary Shares then owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value equal, as of the date of exercise, to the exercise price of the Share Option; (iii) by having the Company retain from the Class A Ordinary Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise of the Share Option, a number of shares having a Fair Market Value equal, as of the date of exercise, to the exercise price of the Share Option (a “net-exercise”); (iv) payment of such other lawful consideration as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion; or (v) by any combination of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall accept only such payment on exercise of an Incentive Share Option as is permitted by Code Section 422.
(c)     Exercise Period . Share Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that Incentive Share Options shall not be exercisable more than 10 years after the date they are granted. All Share Options shall terminate at such earlier times and upon such conditions or circumstances as the Committee shall in its sole discretion set forth in the option agreement at the Date of Grant, including but not limited to limitations on exercisability following termination of the Participant’s employment or consulting relationship.
(d)     Limitations on Incentive Share Options . Incentive Share Options may be granted only to Participants who are employees of the Company or one of its subsidiaries (within the meaning of Code Section 424(f)) at the Date of Grant. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the option is granted) of the Class A Ordinary Shares with respect to which Incentive Share Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under all option plans of the Company) shall not exceed $100,000. Incentive Share Options may not be granted to any Participant who, at the time of grant, owns stock possessing (after the application of the attribution rules of Code Section 424(d)) more than 10%

-3-



of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, unless the option price is fixed at not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Class A Ordinary Shares on the Date of Grant and the exercise of such option is prohibited by its terms after the expiration of five years from the Date of Grant of such option.
(e)     Redesignation as Nonqualified Share Options . Share Options designated as Incentive Share Options that fail to meet the requirements of Code Section 422 shall be redesignated as Nonqualified Share Options automatically without further action by the Committee on the date of such failure to meet the requirements of Code Section 422.
(f)     Termination of Employment or Service Provider Relationship . Unless otherwise provided by the Committee and set forth in the Award, in the event a Participant’s employment or service, as applicable, is terminated before exercise of a vested Share Option, unless otherwise required by law, such Share Options will be held subject to Section 11; provided that the time periods for exercising Incentive Share Options shall be as prescribed by the Code. If the Committee determines, subsequent to a Participant’s termination of employment or service, as applicable, but before exercise of a Share Option, that either before or after the Participant’s termination of employment or service, as applicable, the Participant engaged in conduct that constitutes “Cause,” then the Participant’s right to exercise any Option shall be forfeited immediately.
(g)     Limitation of Rights in Shares . The recipient of a Share Option shall not be deemed for any purpose to be a shareholder of the Company with respect to any of the shares subject thereto except to the extent that the Share Option shall have been exercised and, in addition, a certificate shall have been issued and delivered to the Participant.
(h)    “ Cause ”, as used in connection with the termination of a Participant’s employment or service, is defined in any employment agreement between the Company and such Participant, or in the absence of any such employment agreement, means: [(1) an unauthorized use or disclosure by the Participant of the Company’s confidential information or trade secrets, which use or disclosure causes material harm to the Company; (2) a material breach by the Participant of any agreement between the Participant and the Company and the Participant fails to remedy such condition within ten (10) days of such breach; (3) a material failure by the Participant to comply with the Company’s written policies or rules and the Participant fails to remedy such non-compliance within ten (10)) days of such failure to comply; (4) the Participant’s violation of a federal or state law or regulation directly or indirectly applicable to the business of the Company or its affiliates, which violation was or is reasonably likely to be injurious to the Company or its affiliates; (5) the Participant’s (i) conviction of, or plea of “guilty” or “no contest” to, a felony under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or (ii) committing of any act of moral turpitude, dishonesty or fraud against, or the misappropriation of material property belonging to, the Company or its affiliates; (6) the Participant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct that was or is or is likely to be materially injurious to the Company or its affiliates; (7) a continuing failure by the Participant to perform assigned duties after receiving written notification of such failure from the Board and the Participant fails to remedy such

-4-



condition within ten (10) days after receiving such written notification; or (h) a failure by the Participant to cooperate in good faith with a governmental or internal investigation of the Company or its directors, officers or employees, if the Company has requested the Participant’s cooperation] .
7. Equity Appreciation Rights . “ Equity Appreciation Rights ” will consist of Awards from the Company, which will entitle the holder to receive a payment based on the appreciation in the Fair Market Value of the shares subject thereto up to a specified date or dates. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant Equity Appreciation Rights to the holders of any Share Options granted hereunder. In addition, Equity Appreciation Rights may be granted independently of and without relation to Share Options. Each Equity Appreciation Right shall be subject to such terms and conditions consistent with the Plan as the Committee shall impose from time to time, including the following:
(a)    Each Equity Appreciation Right will entitle the holder to receive the appreciation in the Fair Market Value of the Class A Ordinary Shares referenced therein up to the date the right is subject to a payout event. In the case of a right issued in relation to a Share Option, such appreciation shall be measured from not less than the exercise price of such Share Option and in the case of a right issued independently of any Share Option, such appreciation shall be measured from the applicable strike price specified by the Committee in the applicable Award agreement relating to any such Equity Appreciation Right.
(b)    Each Equity Appreciation Right will be payable at such time or times following the first to occur of the applicable payout event(s) as set forth by the Committee in the applicable Award agreement. Payment of such appreciation shall be made in cash or in Class A Ordinary Shares, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee.
8. Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units .
(a)    “ Restricted Shares ” will consist of Awards of Class A Ordinary Shares to Participants either with or without consideration therefor from Participants. Each Award of Restricted Shares shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee determines appropriate, including, without limitation, restrictions on the sale or other disposition of shares, restrictions requiring the forfeiture of shares to the Company upon termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company or one of its Affiliates prior to satisfying a prescribed period of service. In the case of an Award of Restricted Shares, the Committee may require the Participant to deliver a duly signed share power, endorsed in blank, relating to the shares covered by such an Award, and may also require that the share certificates evidencing such shares be held in custody until the service restrictions thereon shall have lapsed.
Each Restricted Share Award involving actual Class A Ordinary Shares shall specify whether the Participant shall have, with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares subject thereto, all of the rights of a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company, including the right to receive dividends, if applicable, and to vote the shares.

-5-



(b)    “ Restricted Share Units ” will consist of Awards that entitle the Participant to receive Class A Ordinary Shares and/or cash after a prescribed period of service. The period of service, number of reference Class A Ordinary Shares, and other conditions and limitations applicable to each Award of Restricted Share Units shall be as determined by the Committee and shall be stated in the applicable Award agreement. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may impose such other restrictions on Restricted Share Units as it may deem advisable or appropriate including, without limitation, restrictions requiring the forfeiture of Restricted Share Units to the Company upon termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company or one of its Affiliates prior to satisfying the prescribed period of service.
9. Other Share-Based Awards . “ Other Share-Based Awards ” will consist of other types of equity-based or equity-related Awards not otherwise described by the terms of the Plan in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions, as the Board or the Committee shall determine. Such Awards may involve the transfer of actual Class A Ordinary Shares, or payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value of Class A Ordinary Shares.
10. Performance Awards .
(a)    “ Performance Awards ” will consist of Awards for which the Committee has set performance goals at its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number of Class A Ordinary Shares and/or cash value of Awards that will be paid out to the Participants. Performance Awards may be granted to Participants at any time and from time to time, as shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the number, amount and timing of Performance Awards granted to each Participant. Performance Awards may take such form as may be determined by the Committee, including without limitation, cash, Share Options, Awards of Class A Ordinary Shares, Awards of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units, Other Share-Based Awards or any combination thereof. Performance Awards may be awarded as short-term or long-term incentives.
(b)    Performance Awards under the Plan may be made subject to the attainment of one or more of the specified performance goals, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Performance goals may be based upon Company-wide, Affiliate, divisional, project team, and/or individual performance. The Board or the Committee shall have the authority at any time to make adjustments to performance goals for any outstanding Performance Awards which the Board or the Committee deems necessary or desirable unless at the time of establishment of such goals the Board or the Committee shall have precluded its authority to make such adjustments.
(c)    Payment of earned Performance Awards shall be made in accordance with terms and conditions prescribed by the Committee. Performance Awards shall payable in cash or in Class A Ordinary Shares, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee.

11. Effect of Termination of Service on Awards; Forfeiture .
(a)    The Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award, or may determine in any individual case, the circumstances in which Awards shall be exercised, vested, paid or forfeited in the event a Participant ceases to be an employee, director or other service provider prior to the end of a performance period, period of restriction or the exercise, vesting or settlement of such Award. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee if, with respect to any Award, (1) Participant’s termination of employment or service, as applicable, occurs before the end of the period of restriction or the vesting date applicable to such Award (or the applicable portion of such Award) or (2) any performance goals are not achieved in whole or in part (as determined by the Committee) by the end of the period for measuring such performance goals, then all such then unvested and/or unearned Awards shall be forfeited by the Participant.
(b)    Awards under the Plan shall not be affected by the change of a Participant’s status within or among the Company and any subsidiaries or Affiliates, so long as the Participant remains an employee, officer, director or other service provider. For purposes of the Plan and any Award hereunder, if an entity that the Participant is employed by or otherwise providing services to ceases to be a subsidiary or an Affiliate, a Participant shall be deemed to terminated employment or service, as applicable, on the date of the entity’s change in status, unless the Participant continues as an employee or service provider in respect of the Company or another subsidiary or Affiliate (after giving effect to the change in status).
12. Adjustment Provisions .
(a)    If the Company shall at any time change the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issued without new consideration to the Company (such as by share dividend or share split), the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, the maximum number of Class A Ordinary Shares which may be made subject to Incentive Share Options during the term of the Plan, and the number of Class A Ordinary Shares covered by each then outstanding Award shall be equitably adjusted and the aggregate consideration payable to the Company, if any, shall not be changed.
(b)    Unless otherwise provided in Section 13, in the event of any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company with or into another entity other than a merger, consolidation or reorganization in which the Company is the continuing entity and which does not result in the outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares being converted into or exchanged for different securities, cash or other property, or any combination thereof, there may be substituted, on an equitable basis as determined by the Committee, for each Class A Ordinary Share then subject to an Award under the Plan, the number and kind of shares, other securities, cash or other property to which holders of Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company will be entitled pursuant to the transaction.

-7-



13. Change of Control of the Company; Consequences of a Change of Control .
(a)    Unless otherwise expressly provided in the applicable Award agreement, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control of the Company, the Board or the Committee may (1) provide for the acceleration of vesting or to cause the lapse of restrictions with respect to, all or any portion of an Award, (2) cancel an Award for a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined in the sole discretion of the Board) which, in the case of Share Options and Equity Appreciation Rights, shall be deemed to be equal to the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration to be paid in the Change of Control transaction to holders of the same number of Class A Ordinary Shares subject to such Share Options or Equity Appreciation Rights (or, if no consideration is paid in any such transaction, the Fair Market Value of the Class A Ordinary Shares subject to such Share Options or Equity Appreciation Rights) over the aggregate exercise price (in the case of Share Options) or strike price (in the case of Equity Appreciation Rights), (3) provide for the issuance of a substitute Award that will substantially preserve the otherwise applicable terms of any affected Award previously granted hereunder as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, (4) take any other action with respect to the Awards the Board or the Committee deems appropriate. For the avoidance of doubt, the treatment of Awards upon a Change of Control of the Company may vary among the Award types and Participants in the sole discretion of the Board. Unless otherwise determined by the Board (on the same basis or on different bases as the Board shall specify), any repurchase rights or other rights of the Company that relate to an Award shall continue to apply to consideration, including cash, that has been substituted, assumed or amended for an Award pursuant to this Section 13(a). The Company may hold in escrow all or any portion of any such consideration in order to effectuate any continuing restrictions.
(b)    For purposes of this Plan, a “ Change of Control ” of the Company shall mean: the acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, any reorganization, merger or consolidation or share transfer, but excluding any such transaction effected primarily for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company or a bona-fide financing of the Company), unless the Company’s shareholders of record immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions hold, immediately after such transaction or series of related transactions, at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity (provided that the sale by the Company of its securities for the purposes of raising additional funds shall not constitute a Change of Control hereunder); or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change of Control of the Company shall not be deemed to have occurred under Section 13 solely because (1) the Company, (2) an Affiliate or Initial Shareholders, (3) any one or more members of executive management of the Company or its subsidiaries, (4) any employee share ownership plan or any other employee benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate or (5) any combination of the Persons referred to in the preceding clauses (1) through (4) becomes the actual or beneficial owner (within the meaning of rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “ Exchange Act ”)) of 50% or more of the Voting Securities of the Company.

-8-



(c)    In the event that a payment or delivery of an Award following a Change of Control would not be a permissible distribution event, as defined in Code Section 409A(a)(2) or any regulations or other guidance issued thereunder, then the payment or delivery shall be made on the earlier of (i) the date of payment or delivery originally provided for such benefit or (ii) the date of termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company or one of its Affiliates (or six months after such termination in the case of a “specified employee” as provided in Section 18(c) hereof).
(d)    As used in this Section 13, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:
Initial Shareholders ” means the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to any transaction which may constitute a Change of Control.
Person ” means any individual, corporation, partnership, group, association or other “person,” as such term is used in section 14(d) of the Exchange Act.
Voting Securities ” means, with respect to any Person, any securities entitled to vote (including by the execution of action by written consent) generally in the election of directors of such Person (together with direct or indirect options or other rights to acquire any such securities).
14. Nontransferability . Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable written Award agreement, each Award granted under the Plan shall not be transferable otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant or, in the event of a Participant’s disability, by the Participant’s personal representative. In the event of the death of a Participant, exercise of any Award or payment with respect to any Award shall be made only by or to the executor or administrator of the estate of the deceased Participant or the person or persons to whom the deceased Participant’s rights under the benefit shall pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the discretion of the Committee, a grant of a Share Option may permit the transfer thereof by the Participant solely to members of the Participant’s immediate family or trusts or family partnerships or limited liability companies for the benefit of such persons, subject to such terms and conditions as may be established by the Committee.
15. Repurchase of Shares .
(a)    Upon any termination of a Participant’s employment or service with the Company or a subsidiary or Affiliate, unless otherwise provided in the Award, the Company will be entitled (in its sole and absolute discretion) to repurchase at the Company’s election all or any of the Class A Ordinary Shares received hereunder or acquired upon exercise of a grant held by a Participant (whether or not previously acquired by the Participant in connection with the exercise of a Share Option or Equity Appreciation Right or upon settlement of any other Award and including any Class A Ordinary Shares received as a result of the exercise of any Award after the Participant’s termination date) (the “ Repurchase Option ”). If the Company elects to exercise the Repurchase Option with respect to Shares held by any Participant pursuant to this Section 15, it

-9-



shall deliver written notice (the “ Repurchase Notice ”) to such Participant to such effect within 90-days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the Repurchase Option. For the avoidance of doubt, this Repurchase Option does not apply to Class A Ordinary Shares purchased by or granted to a Participant under an agreement that is not part of this Plan.
(b)    The repurchase price (the “ Repurchase Price ”) for a Participant’s Class A Ordinary Shares to be repurchased (the “ Surrendered Securities ”) shall be the Fair Market Value of such Surrendered Securities on the date of termination of employment or service; provided that in the case of a termination of a Participant’s employment or service by the Company for Cause, the Repurchase Price shall be the lesser of the Fair Market Value of the Surrendered Securities on the date of termination of employment or service and the original exercise price (or other amount paid with respect to an Award, if any, in the case of Awards other than Share Options and Equity Appreciation Rights) paid for such Surrendered Securities or the Fair Market Value of such Surrendered Securities on the original date of purchase, as applicable.
(c)       (1)       Within ten (10) business days after the Repurchase Price for the Surrendered Securities has been determined, the Company shall send a notice to such holder of the Surrendered Securities setting forth the consideration to be paid for such securities and the time and place for the closing of the transaction, which date shall not be more than twenty (20) days nor less than five (5) days after the delivery of such notice. At such closing, the holder of the Surrendered Securities shall deliver all certificates (if any exist) evidencing the Surrendered Securities to be repurchased to the Company, and the Company shall pay for the Surrendered Securities to be repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Option by delivery of a check or wire transfer in the aggregate amount of the Repurchase Price for such securities.
(2)       The Company shall be entitled to receive customary representations and warranties from such holder that he or she is the record and beneficial owner of the Surrendered Securities free and clear of any liens, and that he or she will transfer and deliver valid title to such securities free and clear of any liens.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan, all repurchases of Surrendered Securities by the Company shall be subject to applicable state and federal laws and regulations and, to the extent applicable, the Company’s debt and equity financing agreements. If any of the foregoing prohibits (in the discretion of the Company) the repurchase of Surrendered Securities which are otherwise permitted or required hereunder, the time periods provided in this Section 15 (other than the time period for delivery of the notice in Section 15(a)) shall be suspended, and the Company may make such repurchases as soon as it is permitted to do so under such restrictions; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the time periods provided in this Section 15 be suspended for more than three (3) months and that the Company shall in any event have formally notified Participant in writing of its election to repurchase within the time period specified in Section 15(a).
(e)    In the event the Company delivers a Repurchase Notice to a Participant but does not elect to repurchase all Shares held by such Participant, the Shares held by such

-10-



Participant which the Company has not elected to repurchase in the Repurchase Notice shall no longer be subject to the Repurchase Option.
16. Other Provisions . Awards under the Plan may also be subject to such other provisions (whether or not applicable to the Award granted to any other Participant) as the Committee determines appropriate, including without limitation, provisions to assist the Participant in financing the acquisition of Class A Ordinary Shares, provisions for the acceleration of exercisability or vesting and/or early termination of Awards in the event of a Change of Control of the Company, provisions for the payment of the value of Awards to Participants in the event of a Change of Control of the Company, provisions relating to treatment of Awards upon an offering of Company equity on a national securities exchange, provisions for the forfeiture of, or restrictions on resale or other disposition of, Class A Ordinary Shares acquired under any form of Award, provisions to comply with Federal and State securities laws, or understandings or conditions as to the Participant’s employment in addition to those specifically provided for under the Plan.
17. Time of Granting of Awards; Fair Market Value . The date of grant (“ Date of Grant ”) of an Award shall be the date specified by the Committee on which an Award under this Plan will become effective (which date shall in no event be earlier than the date on which the Committee takes action with respect thereto), provided that in the case of an Incentive Share Option, the Date of Grant shall be the later of the date on which the Committee makes the determination granting such Incentive Share Option or the date of commencement of the Participant's employment relationship with the Company or one of its Affiliates. Except as otherwise expressly provided in a written Award, for purposes of this Plan and any Awards hereunder, “ Fair Market Value ” shall mean the amount determined in good faith by the Committee as the fair market value of shares of the Company on such basis as it deems appropriate taking into account, if applicable, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.
18. Tenure . A Participant’s right, if any, to continue to serve the Company as an officer, employee, or otherwise, shall not be enlarged or otherwise affected by his or her designation as a Participant under the Plan, nor shall this Plan in any way interfere with the right of the Company, subject to the terms of any separate employment agreement to the contrary, at any time to terminate such employment or to increase or decrease the compensation of the Participant from the rate in existence at the time of the grant of an Award.
19. Withholding . All payments or distributions made pursuant to the Plan shall be net of any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to applicable federal, state and local tax withholding requirements. If the Company proposes or is required to distribute Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Plan, it may require the recipient to remit to it an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax withholding requirements prior to the delivery of any certificates for such Class A Ordinary Shares. The Committee may, in its sole discretion and subject to such rules as it may adopt, permit an Award holder to pay all or a portion of the minimum required federal, state and local withholding taxes arising in connection with (a) a Share Option or an Equity Appreciation Right or (b) the receipt or vesting of a Restricted Share Award or a Performance

-11-



Award, by electing to have the Company withhold Class A Ordinary Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount to be withheld.
20. Code Section 409A . The Plan is intended to be administered in a manner so that awards thereunder are exempt from Section 409A. For avoidance of doubt, Share Options and Equity Appreciation Rights are intended to qualify for the stock rights exemptions from Section 409A of the Code (“ Section 409A ”). Where reasonably possible and practicable, the Plan shall be administered in a manner to avoid the imposition on Participants of immediate tax recognition and additional taxes pursuant to such Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Committee shall have any liability to any person in the event Section 409A applies to any such Award in a manner that results in adverse tax consequences for the Participant or any of his or her transferees.
21. Duration, Amendment and Termination . This Plan shall terminate upon the earlier of a termination by the Board, or at such time as there shall be no remaining shares available for grant hereunder, or ten-year anniversary of effective date. Also, by mutual agreement between the Company and a Participant hereunder, under this Plan or under any other present or future plan of the Company, Awards may be granted to such Participant in substitution and exchange for, and in cancellation of, any Awards previously granted such Participant under this Plan, or any other present or future plan of the Company. The Board may amend the Plan from time to time or terminate the Plan at any time, subject to any requirement of shareholder approval required by applicable law, regulation, or stock exchange rule.
22. Governing Law . This Plan and actions taken in connection herewith shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the British Virgin Islands.
23. Shareholder Approval . The Plan was adopted by the Board on December 10, 2015.
24. Shareholder Agreements . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it shall be a condition to the receipt of any Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company hereunder that the Participant executes the Company’s shareholder agreements or similar agreements, each as amended from time to time, as required by the Company, the Board or the Committee. In the event that the Participant fails to do so, then the Participant’s right to receive any Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company shall be forfeited immediately.

8.4 Experimental Nature of the Endeavor. It is specifically stated and understood by both Parties to this agreement that neither party is under an obligation to guarantee successful development of the Licensed Products or LD Technology. EL is engaged solely to attempt, to the best of the EL´s ability, to determine the most satisfactory methods, and if possible to design prototypes and methods for the manufacture of the Licensed Products. In any experimental endeavor, the possibility exists that a satisfactory answer may not be found, and that the value of efforts to determine this outcome is in preventing future loss in pursuit of an impractical goal. It is further stated and understood by both parties that EL is under obligation only to use reasonable diligence and its best efforts in applying professional experience and knowledge to the development of the Licensed Products, production methods and tooling, but cannot guarantee such results, nor warrant that satisfactory results are possible. Similarly, AorTech does not guarantee any particular results from AorTech’s consulting obligations or from AorTech’s efforts to formulate and develop the manufacturing process for the LD Implant. Certainty can only occur after development has been completed.
9. WARRANTIES, INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION .

AorTech warrants that all Materials sold to EL will be in compliance with AorTech’s standard specifications for the Materials as employed in the validation and registration of the Licensed Products. No changes to such specifications will be made by AorTech without EL’s approval. The warranties contained herein extend only to EL, and EL shall affirmatively disclaim all liability of AorTech to any end-users of Licensed Products, which disclaimer shall be

-9-



reasonably satisfactory to AorTech. The SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY for any breach of warranty or any certificate of analysis with respect to any Material shall be REPLACEMENT of the Material. The warranty contained herein shall not be deemed to have failed of its essential purpose so long as AorTech is making good faith efforts to correct defects under the terms of the warranty, or has made the replacements provided for.
EXCEPT FOR ANY EXPRESS WARRANTIES MADE IN THIS AGREEMENT NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND INFRINGEMENT, ARE MADE BY AORTECH UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL SUCH OTHER WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT EL PROVIDED OR DETERMINED THE SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE COMPOSTION OF THE MATERIAL AND THE PERFORMANCE AND OTHER SPECIFICATIONS THEREFOR, AND THAT AorTech HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR EL’S DETERMINATION TO USE THE MATERIALS IN THE LICENSED PRODUCTS.
AorTech warrants that it has complied, is complying with, and will comply with all applicable laws, rules, orders, ordinances, decrees, and regulations (collectively, the “Laws”) relating to the manufacture and packaging of the Materials pursuant to this Agreement. EL warrants that it has complied, is complying, and will comply with all the Laws relating to labeling, distribution, and sale of Licensed Products. AorTech warrants that to its actual knowledge its ability to manufacture the Material is not now the subject of any investigation, complaint, order, injunction, or decree of any court, governmental department, commission, board, bureau, or other instrumentality. AorTech certifies that the Material will be produced in compliance with all applicable labor and employment law requirements.
9.2 Inspection; Rejection and Acceptance. A certificate of analysis will accompany each shipment of Material. If EL believes any Material fails to conform to specifications set forth in the certificate or any warranty in this Agreement, EL shall notify AorTech of said failure as soon as practicable, and in any case within thirty (30) days of delivery at EL´s facilities. If EL fails to give notice within such period, the Materials shall be conclusively presumed to conform to all requirements.

EL shall request a Return Materials Authorization (“RMA”) from AorTech before returning Materials for any reason. EL shall be responsible for packing, return shipment, inspection and labor costs in connection with the return of Materials, except when returned due to failure to conform to specifications. EL shall bear no costs for the return of rejected Materials not conforming to specifications. AorTech shall not be responsible for return of any Materials without authorization. All rejected Materials shall be returned to AorTech unless AorTech agrees in writing to another disposition, and EL must return Materials with original paperwork. The RMA numbers must be prominently displayed on the outside packing. Returned items should be packaged to prevent damage in transit in original containers. EL shall give AorTech a detailed statement of alleged deficiencies and shall otherwise comply with AorTech instructions contained in the RMA. AorTech shall have no liability for Products returned or otherwise disposed of by EL, where AorTech is unable to verify

-10-



the alleged deficiency. Such returned Materials will be returned to EL at EL's expense, and EL shall pay AorTech costs of testing and evaluation.
9.3 Licensee’s Right to Quality Audit. Upon reasonable notice, EL may conduct on‑site quality audits of AorTech’s facilities involved in the manufacture of Licensed Materials and the accuracy and repeatability of AorTech’s certificates of analysis for Materials. Such audits shall be performed within AorTech’s regular working hours, and shall not exceed one (1) audit for each calendar year excluding follow-up efforts. Access to information by EL shall be limited to information that does not contain AorTech’s proprietary trade secrets, intellectual property, and know-how that is not licensed to EL under this Agreement. Without limitation, EL shall not have access to AorTech’s proprietary trade secrets, intellectual property, and know-how regarding the Material.
9.4 Limitation of Liability. Neither Party will be liable for a delay in performance of or failure to perform an obligation under this Agreement (except an obligation to make payment promptly when due), if and to the extent such delay or failure is attributable to any cause beyond the reasonable control of such Party (the “affected party”). Such causes may include, but are not limited to, strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disturbances; acts of terrorists or other public enemies; orders of any civil or military authority; insurrection; civil disturbances, sabotage; epidemics; seismic or meteorological events and their consequences; fires or explosions; partial or entire failure of utilities; fuel shortage; unavailability of supplies; or any other cause or event not reasonably within the control of the affected Party (“Force Majeure”). NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INJURY OR DAMAGES TO BUSINESS, EARNINGS, PROFITS OR GOODWILL CAUSED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BY THE MATERIALS DELIVERED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR BY REASON OF ANY BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY OR OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR UNDER ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THIS LIMITATION SHALL NOT WAIVE ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM A PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, AND DOES NOT APPLY TO ANY LIABILITY OF A PARTY IN RESPECT TO THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS CONTAINED HEREIN. NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, MULTIPLE OR OTHER DAMAGES OR PENALTIES, EVEN IF THE PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE SAME.
9.5 Indemnification. EL shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless AorTech and its Affiliates, and each of their shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, and predecessors from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, causes of action, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and litigation costs), resulting from bodily injury (including death), or property damage arising out of or related to, or asserted to arise from (i) any Material which is the subject of this Agreement, or the use thereof, unless AorTech is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be the sole and exclusive cause of any loss, damage or injury to complaining third party, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, or (ii) any Licensed Product, or use thereof, including but not limited to claims in connection with or as a consequence of the design, manufacture, development, testing, distribution, sale or use of any Licensed Product.

Payments received from Distributor when any overdue balance exists shall be applied first against accrued interest.
6.      Regulatory Matters. Puregraft will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain any regulatory approvals of any Products in the Territory that exist as of the date of this Agreement.

7.      Confidential Information.
7.1      Definition. Each of the parties hereto recognizes that the relationship created by this Agreement may involve access by Distributor and Puregraft to information of substantial value to the other party, including, but not limited to, designs, drawings, plans, devices, trade secrets, clinical data, applications, formulae, know-how, methods, techniques, and processes (whether related to Puregraft’s PuregraftTM PURE System, or otherwise), as well as financial, business, marketing and product development information, and customer lists relating to the Products (collectively, “Confidential Information”), provided that Confidential Information shall not include information, only in so far as such information is: (a) in the public domain or which subsequently falls into the public domain, (b) specifically intended by Puregraft for disclosure to Customers of Distributor, (c) information which the non-disclosing party can prove was already known to it prior to the date of this Agreement, or (d) disclosed to the non-disclosing party in good faith by a third party having a legal right to do so.
7.2      Non-Disclosure. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Disclosing party owns all right, title and interest in and to such party’s Confidential Information. Each of the parties hereto further agrees that it shall (a) maintain the secrecy and confidentiality of all Confidential Information which comes to its attention, (b) take all necessary precautions to prevent any disclosure of Confidential Information by any person within the control of the Distributor having access to said Confidential Information, and (c) during the Term of this Agreement and for so long as Confidential Information does not enter into the public domain through an act or omission of Puregraft, neither publish, disclose nor disseminate any part of such Confidential Information in any manner, or use the same, without the prior written consent of the disclosing party. Each party recognizes and agrees that the non-disclosing party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing party to the extent (and only to the degree) that it is required to do so by applicable laws and governmental regulations. Disclosing party shall be notified at the earliest opportunity prior to any disclosure required by law or governmental authority.
7.3      Injunctive Relief. Each of the parties hereto understands and agrees that the Confidential Information has special value, the loss of which cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages or in an action at law, and therefore, in the event of any breach or violation of the provisions of this Section 7 by Puregraft or Distributor, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to equitable relief by way of injunction without the necessity of proving actual damages, which relief shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other relief or rights to which such party may be entitled.
7.4      Survival. The terms and provisions of this Section 7 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
8.      Warranty. The sole warranty given by Puregraft regarding any Product shall be that written limited warranty provided in Schedule 3.1, as it may from time to time be amended by mutual written consent of Distributor and Puregraft (the “Warranty”). Distributor agrees to provide to its Customers within the Territory a written warranty for each particular Product on terms at least as favorable to Customers as that supplied by Puregraft for such Product.

Excepting cases of gross negligence, or willful misconduct by Puregraft, in no event shall Puregraft’s total liability for any claim or action in connection with a Product exceed the purchase price of the Products out of which such claim or action arose.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SO WARRANTED, PUREGRAFT HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, STATUTORY AND IMPLIED, APPLICABLE TO THE PRODUCTS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, DESIGN, AND/OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

PUREGRAFT FURTHER DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS, STATUTORY AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES APPLICABLE TO THE PRODUCTS WHICH ARE NOT MANUFACTURED BY PUREGRAFT, OR BY A LICENSEE OR SUBLICENSEE OF PUREGRAFT. THE ONLY WARRANTIES APPLICABLE TO PRODUCTS NOT MANUFACTURED BY PUREGRAFT OR BY A LICENSEE OR SUBLICENSEE THEREOF SHALL BE THE WARRANTIES, IF ANY, OF THE MANUFACTURERS OF THOSE ITEMS.

9.2      Use of Puregraft Marks by Distributor. Puregraft hereby grants to Distributor an exclusive right and license to use the specified Puregraft Marks solely in connection with the promotion, sale and distribution of the Products within the Territory.

This right and license shall not be assignable or transferable by Distributor in any manner whatsoever, provided, however, that Distributor may provide marketing materials containing the Puregraft Marks to sub-distributors for marketing purposes in the Territory. Distributor acknowledges that (a) Puregraft owns the Puregraft Marks and all goodwill associated with or symbolized by Puregraft Marks, (b) Distributor has no ownership right in or to any Puregraft Marks, except as granted herein.

11.3      Third Party Infringers. If Distributor becomes aware that a third party is or may be making unauthorized use of (a) any patent owned by Puregraft, or for which Puregraft has the exclusive right of use, which relates to the Products (“Puregraft’s Patents”), Distributor shall promptly give Puregraft written notice thereof, which notice shall fully describe the potentially infringing action of such third party. Distributor shall consult with Puregraft with respect to any suit, injunction, or other action taken against such third party, and will consider in good faith any input provided by Puregraft.

12.4      Indemnifying party may control the defense of any claim for which indemnification is tendered, provided it promptly assumes such defense and selects counsel reasonably acceptable to the party to be indemnified, and provided reasonable assurances with respect to such defense can be provided. The indemnified party shall cooperate in the defense and shall have the right to consent to any settlement of the claims provided that such consent may not be withheld in the event that the proposed settlement fully releases the indemnified party from all Claims.

15.      Suspension of Performance.
15.1      Suspension of Performance. Performance of a party’s obligations under this Agreement may be suspended:
(a)      By either party if such other party breaches any of its obligations in this Agreement, or is in default of any term or provision hereunder, which, if curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days of delivery of the written notice of breach;

-11-



(b)      Immediately upon written notice delivered by either of the parties hereto to the other party in the event (i) an encumbrancer takes possession or a receiver is appointed over any of the property or assets of the other party, (ii) that other party makes any voluntary arrangement with its creditors or becomes subject to an administration order, (iii) that other party goes into liquidation (except for the purposes of amalgamation or reconstruction and in such manner that the company resulting therefrom effectively agrees to be bound by or assume the obligations imposed on that other party under this Agreement), (iv) anything that, under the law of any jurisdiction, is analogous to any of the acts or events specified in (i) - (iii) of this Section 15(b), or (v) that other party ceases, or threatens to cease, to carry on business.
15.2      In the event performance of its obligations under this Agreement has been suspended by either party pursuant to this paragraph 15, such party may sue such other party to recover damages equal to the minimum payments (in the case of Puregraft) or profits on minimum quantities of Product sold at the floor prices in Section 1.3 (in the case of Distributor) it would have received under this Agreement if such other party had fully performed under this Agreement.
15.3      Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, Puregraft LLC (for clarity, as distinct from Puregraft as defined above) may terminate this agreement in its entirety with 12 months advance written notice, if notice is given in the first 3 years of the Term, or with 90 days written notice, if notice is given after the first 3 years of the Term, in the event: (a) a sale or license of all, or substantially all, of the assets of Puregraft LLC or any of its Affilates to a non affiliated company in an arm’s length transaction is pursued or (b) the a shareholder in Puregraft LLC elects to pursue a sale of all, or substantially all, of the equity in Puregraft LLC.
In the event a bona fide offer from a third party to engage in a transaction of the type described in Section 15.3(a) or 15.3(b) is pursued or received, Puregraft LLC will promptly notify Distributor and will in good faith support Distributor’s reasonable due diligence in order to facilitate Distributor’s competing bid during the 60 days after such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, Distributor shall not be entitled to the 1-year notice period described in the paragraph above unless the equity in Puregraft LLC is to be sold or substantially all of the assets in Puregraft LLC are to be sold or licensed, but shall be entitled to notification of the transaction and 60 days to formulate a competing bid.
Further, in the event that Puregraft LLC terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 15.3(a) or 15.3(b) Puregraft LLC shall continue to sell Product to Distributor on a non exclusive basis for non U.S. and non Canadian markets for 12 months after such termination, and Distributor shall be entitled to distribute such Product on a non exclusive basis to existing non U.S. and non Canadian customers (but not new customers) for 12 months after such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, Puregraft may pursue and solicit offers of any type, including for the type of transaction described in this section 15.3, and Puregraft LLC and its Affiliates shall have absolutely no liability to Distributor or its Affiliates for termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 15.3 as long as Puregraft LLC complies with the requirements of this Section 15.3.

15.5      Excusable Delays. Puregraft shall not be liable for any delay in the manufacture or delivery of Products pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, or for any damages suffered by Distributor by reason of such delay, when such delay is, directly or indirectly, caused by, or in any manner arises from, fires, floods, accidents, riots, acts of God, war, governmental interference or restrictions, strikes, labor difficulties, back-orders, material shortages, regulatory or business interruptions, acts of Distributor or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of Puregraft, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.
16.      General Provisions.
