Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 30, 2012, Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a License Agreement (the “PCCA License Agreement) and a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “PCCA Purchase Agreement”) in a strategic transaction (the “PCCA Transaction”) with Professional Compounding Centers of America, Inc. (“PCCA”).

Pursuant to the terms of the PCCA License Agreement, effective August 30, 2012, PCCA has granted to the Company and its affiliates certain exclusive rights under PCCA’s proprietary formulations, other technologies and data, and the Company has agreed to pay to PCCA certain royalties on net sales relating to the sale of certain future products.  PCCA may terminate the PCCA License Agreement if the Company fails to commence efforts to research and develop future products within certain time periods.

Pursuant to the terms of the PCCA Purchase Agreement, entered on August 30, 2012 and closed on August 31, 2012, the Company issued and sold to PCCA 4,163,414 shares (the “Shares”) of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $0.96075, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $4,000,000.  The PCCA Purchase Agreement does not grant to PCCA any registration rights with respect to the Shares purchased and sold thereunder.

The Shares were sold in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), afforded by Section 4(2) thereof.  In determining that the issuance of the Shares qualified for an exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, the Company relied on the following facts:  PCCA represented that it was an accredited investor (as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act) and that it was purchasing the Shares for its own account and not with a view to distribute them; the Shares were sold to only one purchaser in connection with a strategic transaction; and the Shares are restricted securities.  The Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States without an effective registration statement or pursuant to an exemption from applicable registration requirements, and this Current Report on Form 8-K is not an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares.

The foregoing description of the PCCA License Agreement and the PCCA Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of those agreements.  A copy of the PCCA License Agreement and the PCCA Purchase Agreement are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the PCCA Purchase Agreement is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02 in its entirety.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On August 30, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the establishment of a scientific and regulatory advisory board to provide guidance to the Company’s management team relating to clinical trial procedures and product development.  The members of the advisory board are not members of the Company’s Board of Directors and do not otherwise hold management roles with the Company.  The advisory board currently has three members as follows:  Dr. Gerald J. Yakatan, Dr. Lee S. Simon, and Dr. Allan Green.  Dr. Yakatan has served in both academic and industrial environments in connection with pharmaceutical product development efforts, and we believe that his experience with the drug development and FDA approval process for various notable drug products will be valuable for our business.  Dr. Simon, who has served as a division director and on advisory committees for the FDA and as a funded investigator and a member of the Steering Committee for the National Institutes of Health, brings important FDA expertise to the advisory board.  Dr. Green is a physician, attorney, research scientist and inventor on several US patents and has significant operating and management experience with a number of biomedical companies, who we believe can provide invaluable advice to our management in the fields in which we operate.

In addition, the Company has entered into consulting agreements with the members of the advisory board.  On August 28, 2012, the Company entered into an independent contractor services agreement with SDG, LLC (“SDG”), of which Dr. Simon and Dr. Green are principals, pursuant to which SDG will provide consulting services for the Company relating to its clinical development strategy for clinical trial design and management and regulatory affairs.  On August 1, 2012, the Company entered into an independent consulting agreement with Dr. Yakatan, pursuant to which Dr. Yakatan has agreed to provide services to the Company relating to its regulatory and development strategy in connection with the FDA approval process.

3.5           PCCA Product Opportunities.  If PCCA conceives a potential Product which is not generally known or obvious, that is not (or a substantially similar product is not) currently being developed or commercialized by or on behalf of Imprimis, and that PCCA in good faith believes presents a bona fide opportunity for Imprimis or a capable Third Party to develop and commercialize, PCCA shall give Imprimis express written notice thereof, which notice shall include a reasonably detailed written description of such potential Product and the clinical and market opportunities therefor, together with all data and information relating thereto (each, a “PCCA Product Opportunity Notice”).  Imprimis shall have an initial period of thirty (30) days commencing on the date it receives a PCCA Product Opportunity Notice to elect to evaluate such Product.  Prior to the expiration of such initial thirty (30) day period, if Imprimis gives PCCA written notice of its election to evaluate such Product, Imprimis shall have a period of six (6) months commencing on the date of such notice of election to exclusively evaluate such Product.  Prior to the expiration of such exclusive evaluation period (or any extension thereof), if Imprimis gives PCCA written notice of, and pays to PCCA the amount of fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) for, each extension of six (6) months (up to a maximum of two (2) extensions for each such Product), such exclusive evaluation period for such Product shall be extended for such additional period specified in such notice.  Prior to the expiration of such exclusive evaluation period (as extended), if Imprimis gives PCCA written notice of its desire to exclusively develop and commercialize such Product, then Imprimis’ rights and licenses with respect to such Product under this Agreement shall continue on an exclusive basis, and Imprimis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize such Product.  With respect to each Product, if prior to the expiration of the applicable initial thirty (30) day period Imprimis fails to gives PCCA written notice of its election to evaluate such Product, or prior to the expiration of the applicable exclusive evaluation period (as extended) Imprimis fails to give PCCA written notice of its desire to exclusively develop and commercialize such Product, then Imprimis’ rights and licenses with respect to such Product under this Agreement shall terminate, and PCCA shall retain the exclusive right (including the right to grant licenses to Affiliates and Third Parties) in the Prescription Drug Field to develop, make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell and import such Product.  If Imprimis (whether on its own or with or through any Affiliate or Sublicensee) ceases to evaluate its interest in any potential Product specifically described in a PCCA Product Opportunity Notice, or to research, develop, make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell or import such Product, Imprimis shall give PCCA written notice within fifteen (15) days thereafter, whereupon all rights and licenses granted to Imprimis with respect to such Product shall terminate.
 
3.6           Diligence.  Prior to the expiration of each period of eighteen (18) months commencing after the second anniversary of the Effective Date, Imprimis (whether on its own or with or through any Affiliate or Sublicensee) shall commence efforts to evaluate, research, develop, make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell or import at least one (1) Product during such period, and thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to research, develop, make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell or import each such Product for which such activities had been commenced (or a replacement Product for any such Product abandoned).
 
4.           FREEDOM COVENANT
 
During the Freedom Period for a Product, Imprimis shall not seek to enforce its Patent Rights or other intellectual property or exclusive rights against any Member/Customer solely to the extent such Member/Customer is engaged in the pharmaceutical compounding of such Product (or a similarly delivered derivative thereof).

5.1.1           During the applicable Royalty Term for a PCCA Product, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Imprimis shall pay to PCCA the following royalties: (i) after the aggregate Net Receipts for such PCCA Product equals the Development Recovery Amount for such PCCA Product, a royalty equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Net Receipts for such PCCA Product until Imprimis has paid to PCCA the aggregate amount of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) under this Section 5.1.1 for such PCCA Product, and (ii) after Imprimis has paid to PCCA the aggregate amount of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) under this Section 5.1.1 for such PCCA Product, a royalty equal to nine percent (9%) of Net Receipts for such PCCA Product.
 
5.1.2           During the applicable Royalty Term for an Imprimis Product, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Imprimis shall pay to PCCA the following royalties: (i) after the aggregate Net Receipts for such Imprimis Product equals the Development Recovery Amount for such Imprimis Product, a royalty equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Net Receipts for such Imprimis Product until Imprimis has paid to PCCA the aggregate amount of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) under this Section 5.1.2 for such Imprimis Product, and (ii) after Imprimis has paid to PCCA the aggregate amount of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) under this Section 5.1.2 for such Imprimis Product, a royalty equal to four and one-half percent (4½%) of Net Receipts for such Imprimis Product.
 
5.1.3           The parties have mutually agreed that the royalty structure set forth above reflects an arms’ length, fair and reasonable allocation of the financial benefit accruing to each party from the development and commercialization of the Licensed IP Rights in the Prescription Drug Field throughout the entire Royalty Term for a Product.
 
5.2           Royalty Reports.  Within forty five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter during the term of this Agreement following the first to occur of the First Commercial Sale of a Product and the receipt by Imprimis or its Affiliates of Net Sublicensing Revenues, Imprimis shall furnish to PCCA a quarterly written report showing in reasonably specific detail (a) the calculation of all royalties owing under Section 5.1; (b) the withholding taxes, if any, required by law to be deducted with respect to such sales; and (c) the exchange rates, if any, used in determining the amount of United States dollars.  With respect to amounts received or costs incurred in United States dollars, all amounts shall be expressed in United States dollars.  With respect to amounts received or costs incurred in a currency other than United States dollars, all amounts shall be expressed both in the currency in which the amounts were received or costs were incurred and the United States dollar equivalent.  The United States dollar equivalent shall be calculated using the average of the exchange rate (local currency per US$1) published in The Wall Street Journal, Western Edition, under the heading “Currency Trading” on the last business day of each month during the applicable calendar quarter.

5.3           Audits.
 
5.3.1           Upon the written request of PCCA and not more than once in each calendar year, Imprimis shall permit an independent certified public accounting firm of nationally recognized standing selected by PCCA and reasonably acceptable to Imprimis, at PCCA’s expense, to have access during normal business hours to such of the financial records of Imprimis as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the payment reports hereunder for the eight (8) calendar quarters immediately prior to the date of such request (other than records for which PCCA has already conducted an audit under this Section 5.3).

5.6           Headings.  The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.
 
5.7           Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.  The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Purchaser (other than by merger).  The Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom the Purchaser assigns or transfers any Shares, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Shares, by the provisions of the Agreement that apply to the Purchaser.
 
5.8           No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.
 
5.9           Governing Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.  The parties agree that any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California (or should such court lack jurisdiction to hear such action, suit or proceeding, in a California state court in the County of San Diego) and that the parties shall submit to the jurisdiction of such court.  The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection the party may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court.  If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Agreement, then the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
 
5.10           Survival.  The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares.
 
5.11           Execution.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.
 
5.12           Severability.  If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

5.13           Replacement of Securities.  If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction.  The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
 
5.14           Remedies.  In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Purchaser and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Agreement.  The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Agreement and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
 
5.15           Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc.  If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.
 
5.16           Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.
