At closing, Hamco paid Sassy $6.5 million for such assets, which included inventory, intellectual property and certain related assets as specified in the Purchase Agreement. The final purchase price is subject to adjustment pending the completion by the parties of a final inventory valuation as of December 15, 2017.
