In connection with the Closing, Oncocyte transferred to Razor all of the assets and liabilities related to DetermaRxTM, a test used to predict a patient’s risk of cancer recurrence following surgery and response to chemotherapy in early-stage lung cancer. While no monetary consideration was received for the sale of 70% of the equity interests of Razor, the transaction allows the Company to eliminate all development and commercialization costs with respect to DetermaRx. Following the Closing, Oncocyte continues to own 1,366,364 shares of common stock of Razor, which constitutes approximately 30% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Razor on a fully-diluted basis. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report reflects the Closing.
