EXPLANATORY NOTE

We are filing this Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 3, 2017 (the “Original Form 10-Q”) for the purpose of correcting disclosures provided in Item 4. Controls and Procedures, which inadvertently omitted the conclusions of our principal executive and financial officers regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures.

The Amendment includes only Item 4. Controls and Procedures, the Exhibit Index in Item 6, and Exhibits 31 and 32 of the Original Form 10-Q. Those sections of the Original Form 10-Q that are unaffected by the Amendment are not included herein. The Amendment continues to speak as of the date of the Original Form 10-Q. Furthermore, the Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the date of the Original Form 10-Q.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation and supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified under SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We design our disclosure controls and procedures to ensure, at reasonable assurance levels, that such information is timely recorded, processed, summarized and reported, and then accumulated and communicated appropriately.

Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2017 our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at reasonable assurance levels.

Changes in Internal Control

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our management, with the participation and supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is in the process of assessing the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting for the acquired RestoreFlow allograft business.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

Notwithstanding the foregoing, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any system will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
