  Director Independence
  We are not currently a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have a board comprising a majority of independent directors or separate committees comprised of independent directors. We use the definition of “independence” under the NASDAQ Rules, as applicable and as may be modified or supplemented from time to time and the interpretations thereunder, to determine if the members of our Board are independent. In making this determination, our Board considers, among other things, transactions and relationships between each director and his immediate family and the Company, including those reported in this Annual Report  “Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.” The purpose of this review is to determine whether any such relationships or transactions are material and, therefore, inconsistent with a determination that the directors are independent. On the basis of such review and its understanding of such relationships and transactions, our Board is expected to determine that four of our Board members, Mr. Richman, Dr. Goldstein, Mr. Fong and Mr. Guiheen, are independent directors.
  Nominating Rights
  Following our 2012 merger, our Board was reconstituted to include designees of certain of our stockholders. Bryant Fong is the designee of Burrill Capital Fund IV, LP, or Burrill, Steven Elms is the designee of Aisling Capital II, L.P., or Aisling, and Dr. Jerrold B. Grossman is the designee of Jerrold and Adam Grossman and their related entities, or the Grossman Group. Burrill, Aisling and the Grossman Group were lead investors in the 2012 Financing. Each of the lead investors is entitled to designate one nominee to our board of directors for as long as it owns 50% of the shares of common stock that it received in the Merger in exchange for the shares of Former ADMA's common stock that it owned immediately following the closing of the 2012 Financing.

 Meetings of the Board of Directors and its Committees

In addition, our Board’s Audit Committee held a total of four meetings, while our Compensation Committee and Governance and Nominations Committee, which were formed in June 2012, each held one meeting in 2012.  Each Director attended in person or telephonically at least 75% of the meetings held by the Board of Directors and all committees thereof on which he served.  We have not had an annual meeting of shareholders since our merger with our predecessor company on February 13, 2012.
  Board Committees
  The following section describes the standing committees of our Board of Directors. The charter of each Board Committee is available free of charge on our website, www.admabiologics.com, under “Investors - Corporate Governance” or by directing a written request to our Corporate Secretary c/o ADMA Biologics, Inc., 65 Commerce Way, Hackensack, New Jersey 07601.
  Audit Committee
  The primary functions of the Audit Committee are to: (a) review the financial reports and other financial information prepared by the Company for submission to any governmental or regulatory body or the public and monitor the integrity of such financial reports; (b) review the Company’s systems of internal controls established for finance, accounting, legal compliance and ethics; (c) review the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes generally and the audits of the financial statements of the Company; (d) monitor compliance with legal regulatory requirements; (e) monitor the independence and performance of the Company’s registered independent public accounting firm; and (f) provide effective communication between the Board, senior and financial management and the Company’s registered independent public accounting firm.
  The members of our Audit Committee are Eric Richman (Chair), Lawrence P. Guiheen and Bryant Fong. Our Board is expected to determine that each committee member meets the independence criteria for directors set forth under the NASDAQ Rules and the additional independence criteria for members of audit committees specified in the NASDAQ Rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act of 1934.
  Our Board is expected to determine that Mr. Richman, the chairman of the Audit Committee, qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined by SEC rules.
  Compensation Committee
  The members of our Board’s Compensation Committee are Dr. Goldstein (Chairman), Mr. Richman and Mr. Fong. The current members of our Compensation Committee are expected to be “independent” as required by the NASDAQ Rules and in accordance with the requirements of Section 952 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Each member of the Committee qualifies as an outside director within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
  The Company’s executive compensation program is administered by the Compensation Committee. The primary functions of the Compensation Committee are to: review and recommend to the Board of Directors, or the Board, appropriate executive compensation policies, compensation of the directors and officers, and executive and employee benefit plans and programs, and oversee such policies, compensation, plans and programs approved by the Board and, where appropriate, by the shareholders.
  Compensation of our President and Chief Executive Officer is determined, or recommended to the Board for determination, by the Compensation Committee comprised solely of independent directors. The President and Chief Executive Officer is not present during voting or deliberations. Compensation for all other officers is determined, or recommended to the Board for determination, by the Compensation Committee comprised solely of independent directors.
  Under the Compensation Committee Charter, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chairman of the Board may recommend to the Compensation Committee individual compensation awards for our officers. The Compensation Committee would then have to review the recommendation and make its own recommendation to the Board.
  4
  Governance and Nominations Committee
   The members of our Board’s Governance and Nominations Committee are Mr. Guiheen (Chairman), Mr. Fong and Mr. Richman, all of whom are expected to be “independent” as required by the NASDAQ Rules.
  The primary functions of the Governance and Nominations Committee are to: review and make recommendations on the range of skills and expertise which should be represented on the Board, and the eligibility criteria for individual Board and Committee membership; review and recommend to the Board the appropriate structure of the Board; identify individuals qualified to become Board members and recommend to the Board the nominees for election to the Board at the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders; implement a policy and procedures with regard to consideration of any director candidate recommended by stockholders; retain and terminate any search firm to be used to identify director candidates, and to approve the search firm, fees and other retention terms; and review and recommend to the Board the appropriate structure of Board Committees, Committee assignments and the Board Committee chairman.
  Among the factors the Governance and Nominations Committee considers when determining persons to be nominated include whether such individuals are actively engaged in business endeavors, have an understanding of financial statements, corporate budgeting and capital structure, are familiar with the requirements of a publicly traded company, are familiar with industries relevant to our business endeavors, are willing to devote significant time to the oversight duties of the Board of Directors of a public company, and are able to promote a diversity of views based on the person’s education, experience and professional employment. The Governance and Nominations Committee evaluates each individual in the context of the board as a whole, with the objective of recommending a group of persons that can best implement our business plan, perpetuate our business and represent stockholder interests. The Governance and Nominations Committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time.
  The Company is of the view that the continuing service of qualified incumbents promotes stability and continuity in the board room, contributing to the ability of the Board of Directors to work as a collective body, while giving the Company the benefit of the familiarity and insight into the Company’s affairs that its directors have accumulated during their tenure. Accordingly, the process of the Governance and Nominations Committee for identifying nominees reflects the Company’s practice of re-nominating incumbent directors who continue to satisfy the Governance and Nominations Committee’s criteria for membership on the Board of Directors, whom the Governance and Nominations Committee believes continue to make important contributions to the Board of Directors and who consent to continue their service on the Board of Directors. The Governance and Nominations Committee will identify and/or solicit recommendations for new candidates when there is no qualified and available incumbent.
  The Governance and Nominations Committee will consider nominees recommended by stockholders. There are no differences in the manner in which the committee evaluates nominees for director based on whether the nominee is recommended by a stockholder. Stockholders who would like to have our Governance and Nominations Committee consider their recommendations for nominees for the position of director, should submit their recommendations, in accordance with the procedures set forth below, in writing to: Corporate Secretary, ADMA Biologics, Inc., 65 Commerce Way, Hackensack, New Jersey.
  For nominations, a stockholder’s notice must include: (i) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director, (A) the name, age, business address and residential address of such person, (B) the principal occupation or employment of such person, (C) the class and number of shares of stock of ADMA that are beneficially owned by such person, (D) any other information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors or is otherwise required by the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated under the Exchange Act, and (E) the written consent of the nominee to be named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected and (ii) as to the stockholder giving the notice, (A) the name, business address, and residential address, as they appear on our stock transfer books, of the nominating stockholder, (B) a representation that the nominating stockholder is a stockholder of record and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice, (C) the class and number of shares of stock of ADMA beneficially owned by the nominating stockholder and (D) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the nominating stockholder and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination or nominations are to be made by the nominating stockholder.

  Code of Ethics
  Our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, or the Code, applies to all directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions, and contains the general guidelines for conducting the business of the Company.  The overall purpose of the Code is to ensure compliance of general guidelines for conducting the business of the Company consistent with the understanding of Company personnel of the Company’s standards of ethical business practices.

  Prior to the merger, it had been ADMA’s policy to pay Mr. Richman $2,000 per Board meeting attended.  On February 8, 2008, ADMA granted Mr. Richman options to purchase 2,800 shares at an exercise price of $2.68, which vested over four years.  On January 22, 2009, ADMA granted Mr. Richman options to purchase 4,668 shares at an exercise price of $1.35, which were fully vested on the date of grant.  Exercise price and number of shares underlying the options have been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-6.8 share reverse split in 2012.  On April 4, 2012, ADMA granted Mr. Richman options to purchase 33,676 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.56, which vest over four years with 25% vesting on April 4, 2013, the first anniversary of the date of grant, and the remaining 75% vesting pro rata over the next 36 months.
  Prior to April 4, 2012, Dr. Grossman, Mr. Grossman, Mr. Elms and Dr. Goldstein had not been paid any compensation for their services on the Board of ADMA.  On April 4, 2012, ADMA granted Dr. Grossman options to purchase 33,676 shares of common stock and each of Mr. Elms, Dr. Goldstein and Mr. Fong options to purchase 16,837 shares of common stock, each at an exercise price of $7.56 and vesting over four years with 25% vesting on April 4, 2013, the first anniversary of the date of grant, and the remaining 75% vesting pro rata over the next 36 months.  On July 17, 2012, in connection with his appointment to the Board, Lawrence Guiheen was also granted options to purchase 16,837 shares of common stock pursuant to the same terms (with initial vesting occurring on July 17, 2013, the first anniversary of the date of grant).  Our directors have been, and will continue to be, reimbursed for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by them in connection with travel to and from Board and committee meetings.  Such reimbursements did not amount to $10,000 or more for any one of them in 2012.
  General Policy Regarding Compensation of Directors
 
 ADMA expects to pay its non-executive Vice Chairman, Dr. Jerrold B. Grossman, annual director fees of $50,000, subject to an additional payment of $25,000 per year at the discretion of the Board.  The Board exercised such discretion in favor of Dr. Grossman in January 2012 with respect to 2012 services.  On June 19, 2012, the Board approved a Board compensation program pursuant to which each director of the Company will be paid a cash retainer equal to $20,000 payable on an annual basis immediately following the date of the Company’s annual meeting; the Chairman of the Board’s Audit Committee will be paid $15,000 (in addition to any amounts payable for service on the Board), payable on an annual basis immediately following the date of the Company’s annual meeting; the Chairman of the Board’s Compensation Committee and the Chairman of the Board’s Governance and Nominations Committee each will be paid $10,000 (in addition to any amounts payable for service on the Board), payable on an annual basis immediately following the date of the Company’s annual meeting; and each Board member will be granted stock purchase options on an annual basis following the date of the Company’s annual meeting, in an amount determined in good faith by the Board and granted pursuant to the Company’s 2007 Employee Stock Option Plan.  On August 7, 2012, the Board amended its compensation program to provide for the disbursement of 50% of annual Board and Committee fees on January 1 and 50% on July 1 of each year.
 
 Our sole director prior to the February 2012 merger, Mr. Arnold P. Kling, did not receive any compensation from us during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2011.  Information regarding compensation for those of our directors who are also employees is set forth in the Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table below.

  (1)     Reflects bonuses for 2012, which were paid in March 2013.  The 2011 bonus for Mr. Grossman was paid in February 2012 in connection with Mr. Grossman’s new employment agreement with respect to service provided in 2011.
  (2)     The amount reflected in the table represents the aggregate grant-date fair value of options computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 (formerly FAS 123R). We estimate the fair value of each option on the grant date using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions: To determine the risk-free interest rate, we utilized the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant with a term consistent with the expected term of our awards.  The expected term of the options granted is in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin 107 which is based the average between vesting term and contractual term.  The expected dividend yield reflects our current and expected future policy for dividends on our common stock.  The expected stock price volatility for our stock options was calculated by examining historical volatilities for similar publicly traded industry peers, since we do not have any trading history for our common stock.  We will continue to analyze the expected stock price volatility and expected term assumptions as historical data for our common stock becomes available.  We have not experienced forfeitures of stock options and as such, has not established a forfeiture rate.  Since the stock options currently outstanding are primarily held by our senior management and directors, we will continue to evaluate the effects of such future potential forfeitures, as they may arise, to evaluate our estimated forfeiture rate.  The material terms of the options held are described in the footnotes to the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal-Year End table.

  Agreements with Executive Officers
 
 President and Chief Executive Officer
 
 In February 2012, we entered into a new employment agreement with our President and Chief Executive Officer, Adam S. Grossman, which has an initial term of three years, with automatic three year renewal periods unless notice is provided 90 days in advance.  The employment agreement provides that Mr. Grossman (i) will initially be paid $350,000 annually beginning on the date on which the February 2012 merger closed, referred to as the Effective Date; (ii) is eligible for an annual cash bonus, the target of which is $100,000, based upon the attainment of certain performance objectives mutually agreed to by the Board of Directors and Mr. Grossman; and (iii) is eligible to participate in our standard benefits package.  In addition, pursuant to the employment agreement, options to purchase 269,410 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.56 were granted to Mr. Grossmann.  All options granted to Mr. Grossman were issued under our stock option plan and vest over a four year period, with 25% of the options vesting on the Effective Date, and the remaining 75% vesting in equal monthly installments over the following 48 months of continued employment (full vesting on the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date), subject to accelerated vesting (i) upon a “change of control” (as defined in the agreement) of the Company of all options if Mr. Grossman is terminated by the Company or its successor for any reason other than cause or by Mr. Grossman for “good reason” (as defined in the agreement) immediately preceding or within two years thereafter and (ii) of that portion of the options that would have vested over the one year period following the date of termination upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by Mr. Grossman for good reason or as a result of death or disability.  Mr. Grossman also received a bonus in connection with his 2011 performance, including in connection with the February 2012 private placement and merger, of $50,000 on the date on which the merger closed.  We were obligated to reimburse Mr. Grossman for up to $10,000 in legal expenses incurred in connection with the employment agreement.
  9
  The employment agreement also provides that Mr. Grossman cannot, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, provide services to any person or entity which competes with the Company, unless he obtains our prior written consent for a period of 12 months following his termination.
  The employment agreement furthermore provides that, in the event (i) that Mr. Grossman is terminated by the Company “without cause” (as such term is defined under the employment agreement), (ii) that Mr. Grossman resigns for “good reason” (as such term is defined under the employment agreement), or (iii) of any termination resulting from a “change of control” (as defined in the agreement) in which the existing employment agreement is not assumed by the successor to the Company, he would be entitled to (A) a severance payment equal to one year base salary payable in 12 monthly, equal installments after termination (lump sum if immediately preceding or within 24 months of a change of control), (B) prior year bonus (if unpaid)  and a pro rata bonus for year of termination (calculated as if 50% of the target had been met for the year of termination) and (C) one year of additional vestings on equity incentives then granted to Mr. Grossman or all remaining vestings if such termination is immediately preceding or within 2 years following a change of control.
 
 Chief Financial Officer
 
 On April 30, 2012, in connection with Mr. Lenz’s appointment as our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Lenz.  Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Lenz will serve as our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer for an initial term of three years, which term will extend automatically for additional three year periods unless appropriate notice is given by one of the parties.  Mr. Lenz will receive an annual base salary of $257,500, and will be eligible for annual bonus payments of up to 30% of his base salary, based upon the achievement of certain milestones as established annually by our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Lenz and approved by the Compensation Committee.
  Pursuant to his employment agreement, if a Change in Control (as defined under the employment agreement) occurs and the successor to the Company does not assume the employment agreement or within 12 months following such Change in Control Mr. Lenz is terminated Without Cause (as defined under the employment agreement) or Mr. Lenz resigns for Good Reason (as defined under the employment agreement), Mr. Lenz or his estate, as applicable, will receive his base salary, health insurance benefits and any accrued but unpaid benefits for a period of twelve months and all of his unvested stock options shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable from the date of Mr. Lenz’s termination. If we terminate Mr. Lenz as a result of his death, Mr. Lenz or his estate, as applicable, will receive his base salary for 60 days.  If we terminate Mr. Lenz for Cause (as defined under the employment agreement), if Mr. Lenz terminates his employment other than for Good Reason, or if Mr. Lenz’s employment terminates by expiration of the term of the employment agreement, Mr. Lenz will receive any salary and benefits earned and unpaid to the date of termination.  If we terminate Mr. Lenz for reasons other than those stated above or Mr. Lenz terminates his employment for Good Reason, Mr. Lenz will receive his salary and benefits for a period of time ending on the date that is six months from the date of termination, except that such health benefits shall cease upon the earlier to occur of the expiration of such six month period or the date upon which Mr. Lenz begins regular, full-time employment with a third party and is eligible to commence health insurance coverage.  The employment agreement also contains certain noncompete and non-solicitation provisions effective during the period Mr. Lenz receives termination benefits under the employment agreement, if any, as well as standard confidentiality provisions.
  10
  Additionally, on May 1, 2012, pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Lenz was issued an option to purchase 84,190 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $7.56 per share, which is equal to the fair market value of one share of our common stock on the date of grant.  Such option will vest in over a four year period as follows: an initial 25% of the stock options will become exercisable on May 1, 2013; and the remaining stock options will become exercisable in equal monthly installment of the total remaining number of shares covered by the stock options over the following 36 months.
  Chief Scientific and Medical Officer
  On July 17, 2012, we appointed James Mond, M.D., Ph.D. as our Chief Scientific and Medical Officer, effective July 18, 2012.
  On July 18, 2012, we entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Mond.  Pursuant to the employment agreement, Dr. Mond will serve as our Executive Vice President, Chief Scientific and Medical Officer for an initial term of three years, which term will extend automatically for additional three year periods unless appropriate notice is given by one of the parties.

  Pursuant to the employment agreement, if a Change in Control (as defined under the employment agreement) occurs and the successor to the Company does not assume the employment agreement or within 12 months following such Change in Control, Dr. Mond is terminated Without Cause (as defined under the employment agreement) or Dr. Mond resigns for Good Reason (as defined under the employment agreement), Dr. Mond or his estate, as applicable, will receive his base salary, health insurance benefits and any accrued but unpaid benefits for a period of twelve months and all of his unvested stock options shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable from the date of Dr. Mond’s termination.  If we terminate Dr. Mond as a result of his death, his estate will receive his base salary for 60 days.  If we terminate Dr. Mond for Cause (as defined under the employment agreement), if Dr. Mond terminates his employment other than for Good Reason, or if Dr. Mond’s employment terminates by expiration of the term of the employment agreement, Dr. Mond will receive any salary and benefits earned and unpaid to the date of termination.  If we terminate Dr. Mond for reasons other than those stated above or Dr. Mond terminates his employment for Good Reason, Dr. Mond will receive his salary and benefits for a period of time ending on the date that is six months from the date of termination, except that such health benefits shall cease upon the earlier to occur of the expiration of such six month period or the date upon which Dr. Mond begins regular, full-time employment with a third party and is eligible to commence health insurance coverage.  The employment agreement also contains certain non-compete and non-solicitation provisions effective during the period Dr. Mond receives termination benefits under the employment agreement, if any, as well as standard confidentiality provisions.
 
 In connection with his appointment, the Board approved the grant to Dr. Mond of options to purchase 134,705 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $7.56 per share, which is equal to the value of our common stock on the date of grant.  The options will vest over a four year period as follows: 25% of the options will become exercisable on July 18, 2013, with the remaining options becoming exercisable in equal monthly installments over the following 36 months.  The options are subject to approval by our stockholders of an amendment to the Company’s 2007 Employee Stock Option Plan, which would increase the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under such plan.
 
 Equity Incentive Plan
 
 2007 Employee Stock Option Plan
 
 In July 2007, the stockholders of our predecessor company approved the 2007 Employee Stock Option Plan (as amended), or the 2007 Plan, which provides for the granting of incentive and non-qualified stock options to our officers and employees.  Additionally, the 2007 Plan authorizes the granting of non-qualified stock options to our directors and to any independent consultants.  The Board of Directors in conjunction with management determines who receives awards, the vesting conditions of which are generally four years, and the exercise price of which may be no less than the fair market value of the common stock.  Options may have a maximum term of no more than 10 years.  Net issue exercise of options is permitted with the consent of the Board.  We assumed the 2007 Plan in the February 2012 merger.
  11
  After an increase in authorized shares under the 2007 Plan in connection with the February 2012 merger and again in November 2012, and grants of options to purchase an aggregate of 138,183 shares made on April 4, 2012 (the director grants of which are described under “Director Compensation” above), 84,190 shares made on May 1, 2012 to Brian Lenz, 16,837 shares made on July 17, 2012 to Lawrence Guiheen, and 134,705 shares made on July 18, 2012 to James Mond, we currently have options to purchase 774,798 shares of common stock issued and outstanding under the 2007 Plan and have reserved for future issuance under the 2007 Plan an additional 128,426 shares of common stock.
  As indicated above, on November 19, 2012, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2007 Plan which provided for an increase in the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be granted under the plan to 903,224.

  Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
  Other than the compensation agreements and other arrangements described under “Item 11.  Executive Compensation - Executive Compensation - Agreements with Executive Officers" in this Annual Report and the transactions set forth below, since January 1, 2011, there has not been any transaction or series of transactions to which we were or are a party in which the amount involved exceeded or exceeds $120,000 and in which any director, executive officer, holder of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. We believe the transactions set forth below were executed on terms no less favorable to us than we could have obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
  Our board is responsible for reviewing and approving all material transactions with any related party on a continuing basis. Related parties can include any of our directors or officers, holders of 5% or more of our voting securities and their immediate family members. We may not enter into a related person transaction unless our board has reviewed and approved such transaction.
  Shares Services Agreement and Other Arrangements
  Our executive offices are located in approximately 5,000 square feet of space in Hackensack, New Jersey. Currently we operate under a shared services agreement with Areth, LLC for the office, warehouse space and related services and have the ability to cancel this agreement upon 30 days’ notice. Areth, LLC is a company controlled by Dr. Jerrold B. Grossman, our Vice Chairman, and we pay monthly fees for the use of such office space and for other information technology, general warehousing and administrative services. Rent under the shared services agreement is $8,037 per month.  Rent expense for this facility amounted to $96,448 for each of the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively.  We intend to relocate our offices in the immediate future, in the same geographic area as we currently occupy and we anticipate that we will continue to maintain a services relationship with Areth LLC which owns other property we will likely occupy for the same or substantially similar rent. We do not anticipate the amount of space and cost of rent to materially change from current levels.
  14
  We owed deferred rent to Areth, LLC in the amount of $72,336 as of December 31, 2011 and an additional $8,037 as of February 13, 2012 for a total of $80,373.  These amounts were for office space rent and services previously rendered and were paid out of the proceeds from the February 2012 private placement.  Technomed Inc. provides certain services pursuant to the shared services agreement between the Company and Areth, LLC.  Technomed Inc. is owned by Adam S. Grossman and Dr. Jerrold B. Grossman as well as their family members.  In addition, the Company owed Eric Richman deferred director fees of $8,000, which were paid out of the proceeds from the February 2012 private placement.
  We maintain deposits and other accounts at Pascack Bankcorp, a bank of which Dr. Grossman serves as a director and which is approximately 5%-owned by members of the Grossman family.
  The Merger
  On February 13, 2012, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the Merger Agreement, with ADMA Biologics, Inc., a privately-held Delaware corporation, or Former ADMA, and ADMA Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary, or Acquisition Sub.  Upon the closing of the merger transaction contemplated under the Merger Agreement, or the Merger, Acquisition Sub was merged with and into Former ADMA, and Former ADMA, as the surviving corporation in the Merger, became our wholly-owned subsidiary.  Our corporate name was changed from R&R Acquisition VI, Inc. to ADMA Biologics, Inc. and the name of Former ADMA was changed to ADMA Plasma Biologics, Inc.
  Prior to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement with Former ADMA, there were no material relationships between us and Former ADMA, or any of our and their respective affiliates, directors or officers, or any associates of our and their respective directors or officers.
  In connection with the Merger and pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement:
  ·
all of the then issued and outstanding shares of Former ADMA’s common stock, including the common stock issued in the 2012 Financing (as defined below under “2012 Financing”) and including the shares of Former ADMA’s Series A preferred stock, which were converted into Former ADMA’s common stock immediately prior to and as part of the Merger, were automatically exchanged into 5,843,613 shares of our common stock at a 1:1 exchange ratio;
  ·
all warrants, options and other rights to purchase or acquire shares of Former ADMA’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger, including the Placement Agent Warrants (as defined below) and including the additional options granted to Adam S. Grossman under his new employment agreement, were converted into warrants, options or other rights, as the case may be, to purchase an aggregate of 486,893 shares of our common stock at the same exercise prices; and
  ·
3,107,648 of the 3,175,000 shares of our common stock held by our stockholders immediately prior to the Merger were canceled such that these stockholders were left owning 67,352 shares of our common stock, not including the 111,587 shares issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants held by an affiliate of one of such stockholders and certain of its employees.
  Immediately prior to the Merger and the transactions described above, (i) 3,386,454 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of Former ADMA were converted into 14,279,559 shares of Former ADMA’s common stock after giving effect to cumulative anti-dilution adjustments and accrued dividends, and 4,835,224 shares of Former ADMA’s Series A Preferred Stock issued in December 2011 upon the conversion of convertible notes were converted into 6,140,734 shares of Former ADMA’s common stock and (ii) the shares of common stock of Former ADMA were reverse split at a ratio of 1-for-6.8 (the “Reverse Split”).
  As part of the Merger, we assumed certain of Former ADMA’s obligations under an investors’ rights agreement, dated July 17, 2007, by and among Former ADMA and its shareholders (the “Investors’ Rights Agreement”), assumed Former ADMA’s obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined under “- Recent Financings - 2012 Financing” below), and assumed Former ADMA’s 2007 Employee Stock Option Plan.
  Change in Management
  In connection with the Merger, our board of directors was reconstituted by the resignation of Mr. Arnold P. Kling from his role as our sole director and the appointment of Steven A. Elms, Dov A. Goldstein, Jerrold B. Grossman, Adam S. Grossman, Eric I. Richman and Bryant E. Fong as directors (all of whom except for Mr. Fong were directors of Former ADMA immediately prior to the Merger).  Bryant Fong is the designee of Burrill, Steven Elms is the designee of Aisling and Dr. Jerrold B. Grossman is the designee of Jerrold and Adam Grossman and their related entities (the “Grossman Group”).  Burrill, Aisling and the Grossman Group were the lead investors (the “Lead Investors”) in the 2012 Financing (defined below).  Each of the Lead Investors is entitled to designate one nominee to our board of directors for as long as it owns 50% of the shares of common stock that it received in the Merger in exchange for the shares of Former ADMA’s common stock that it owned immediately following the closing of the 2012 Financing.  Our executive management team was also reconstituted following the resignation of Mr. Kling as our President and Mr. Kirk M. Warshaw as our Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, and Adam S. Grossman was appointed our President and Chief Executive Officer.  On April 30, 2012, the Board ADMA appointed Brian Lenz as the Company’s Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective May 1, 2012.  On July 17, 2012, Lawrence P. Guiheen was appointed to our Board.  On July 18, 2012, James Mond, M.D., Ph.D., joined us as our Chief Scientific and Medical Officer.  See “Item 10.  Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance - Management.”

  Recent Financings
  Convertible Notes
  In 2009, 2010 and 2011, we issued senior secured convertible promissory notes to significant stockholders, as further detailed in the table below.  The notes provided that the outstanding principal and interest under the notes would be due and payable upon the earliest to occur of:  (i) December 31, 2011 (as extended by amendment); (ii) the date on which the Company would consummate a preferred stock financing in which the gross proceeds to the Company totaled at least $10,000,000 (“Qualified Financing”); and (iii) the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the notes), the first of these three events to occur referred to as the “Maturity Date.”  Interest accrued on the outstanding principal at the rate stated in the table below and was payable on the Maturity Date.  The notes provided that in the Qualified Financing, the unpaid principal and accrued interest on the notes would automatically convert into the preferred stock issued in such Qualified Financing at a price per share equal to the lesser of (A) the price per share paid by the investors in the Qualified Financing or (B) the conversion price listed in the table below.
  In December 2011, all then-outstanding senior secured convertible promissory notes were converted into 4,835,224 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with their terms.  No such notes remain outstanding.
  Non-Convertible Notes
  In 2011, we issued senior secured promissory notes to significant stockholders, as further detailed in the table below.  The notes stated that the outstanding principal and interest under them would be due and payable upon the earliest of (such date is referred to as the “Maturity Date”) (i) December 31, 2011 (extended by amendment to March 31, 2012 with respect to $250,000 in aggregate principal amount of such notes); or (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the notes).  Interest accrued on the outstanding principal at the rate stated below and was payable on the Maturity Date.  In an Event of a Default, the interest rate stated on the notes would have been increased by three percent (3%) per annum.  The notes were collateralized by all of our assets.
  The notes also stated that they would be repaid prior to the Maturity Date upon (i) the receipt by Former ADMA of funds from the sale of plasma inventory of Former ADMA or its subsidiary; (ii) Former ADMA’s sale of any of its securities in a public offering or (ii) a Change of Control (as defined in the notes).
  Senior secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000 were repaid prior to the Merger.  Senior secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000 (plus $12,740 in accrued interest) were invested in the 2012 Financing by the holders of the notes in exchange for shares of Former ADMA’s common stock.  No such notes remain outstanding.
  Warrants
  In connection with the issuance of certain of the above notes, we issued common stock purchase warrants expiring ten years from the date of issue to existing common and preferred stockholders at an exercise price of $0.06 per share.  Such warrants vested immediately and could be exercised at any time up to the expiration date.  The warrants were exercised for shares of Former ADMA common stock prior to the Merger.
  Summary Table
  The amounts listed for the investors below were the largest amounts of principal outstanding for those investors since the issuance of the notes.  None of the notes remain outstanding.

  2012 Financing
  In connection with, and immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, Former ADMA completed a private placement (the “2012 Financing”) of 2,321,723 shares of Former ADMA’s common stock at a price per share of $7.56 to accredited investors, for gross proceeds to ADMA of $17,550,029 pursuant to a securities purchase agreement, dated as of February 13, 2012 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”).  The 2012 Financing closed on February 13, 2012.  In lieu of repayment of senior secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000 (plus $12,740 in accrued interest), the aggregate amount of unpaid principal and interest on the notes was invested by the holders of such notes in the 2012 Financing in exchange for shares of Former ADMA’s common stock.  The net cash proceeds from the 2012 Financing, after the payment of all expenses related to the 2012 Financing and the Merger, including legal, printing, travel, the Placement Agent’s cash fee and expense reimbursement and miscellaneous, were approximately $15.3 million, not including in such proceeds the senior secured promissory notes that were satisfied in exchange for shares of Former ADMA’s common stock in the 2012 Financing.
  Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, for a period ending on the earlier to occur of (a) 18 months following the closing of the 2012 Financing or (b) such date that we have sold in one or more transactions (other than exempt issuances as defined in the agreement) securities having an aggregate purchase price of at least $5 million, if we sell any common stock or common stock equivalents for a price less than $7.56 (a “Dilutive Issuance”), each investor in the 2012 Financing will be given the right to subscribe, for $0.01 per share, for such number of additional shares of common stock equal to (x) the total subscription amount paid by the investor in the 2012 Financing divided by the price per share of common stock paid (or payable per share of common stock in the case of common stock equivalents) by investors in connection with the Dilutive Issuance, less (y) the total number of shares of common stock purchased by such investor at the closing of the 2012 Financing and any such additional shares of common stock acquired under this right.  We must use commercially reasonable efforts to complete a financing transaction pursuant to which we would sell common stock or common stock equivalents resulting in gross proceeds of at least $5 million within 18 months of the closing of the 2012 Financing (the “First Follow-On Financing”).
  Burrill, Aisling, and the Grossman Group, which we collectively refer to as the “Lead Investors,” purchased 1,124,480, 582,085 and 145,522 shares of Former ADMA’s common stock, respectively, for approximately $8,500,000, $4,400,000 and $1,100,000, respectively.  $262,740 in consideration paid by Aisling and the Grossman Group was in the form of secured promissory notes in lieu of cash.  ADMA reimbursed the Lead Investors for their reasonable costs (including legal fees and expenses) of $38,184 in connection with the 2012 Financing.  The Lead Investors, and Former ADMA’s officers and directors, agreed not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of their common stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for common stock for a period of 180 days following the closing of the 2012 Financing.  In addition, with respect to any Lead Investor, until such time that such Lead Investor owns less than 50% of the shares of common stock that it received in the Merger in exchange for the shares of common stock that it owned immediately following the closing of the 2012 Financing, if we propose to offer any shares of its equity securities, or securities or debentures exchangeable for or convertible into additional shares of its equity securities for the purpose of financing its business (other than shares issued to employees, directors and consultants in the form of stock or options, shares issued upon exercise, exchange or conversion of any securities issued in the 2012 Financing or outstanding as of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, shares issued pursuant to strategic agreements, shares offered to the public pursuant to an underwritten public offering, or other customary exclusions), the Company will offer such Lead Investor the right to participate in any such offering on the same terms and conditions otherwise available to investors therein, to the extent of an amount at least equal to their beneficial ownership percentage at the time of such offer.
  In connection with the 2012 Financing and the Merger, we agreed, pursuant to a registration rights agreement, dated as of February 13, 2012 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), to register on a registration statement (the “Investor Registration Statement”) the resale of the shares of common stock issued in the Merger in exchange for the shares of common stock issued in the 2012 Financing and the shares of common stock owned by our pre-Merger stockholders, as well as the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued to the placement agent and its designees in the Merger in exchange for the Placement Agent Warrants (as defined below).  Such registration statement was declared effective on August 13, 2012.
  18
  We refer to the securities the resale of which is required to be registered on the Investor Registration Statement as the “Registrable Securities.”  If, among other events, the Investor Registration ceases to remain effective for more than 10 consecutive trading days or any 15 trading days during any 12-month period, we are required to pay in cash to the investors in the 2012 Financing an amount per month equal to one percent of the investors’ subscription amount for Registrable Securities still held by the investors, until the Investor Registration Statement is filed, declared effective or continues to be effective (as the case may be).  This payment is subject to a maximum of (i) one percent of the investors’ subscription amount for Registrable Securities still held by the investors if we are diligently using our best efforts to have the Investor Registration Statement declared effective and the delays associated with the effectiveness of the Investor Registration Statement are the result of either continuing comments from or delays in reviewing by the SEC and (ii) ten percent of the investors’ subscription amount for Registrable Securities still held by the investors in all other cases.
  We agreed to make such filings as are necessary to keep the Investor Registration Statement effective until the date on which all of the Registrable Securities have been sold or are saleable pursuant to Rule 144 (“Rule 144”) or its other subsections (or any successor thereto) under the Securities Act.  We are obligated to bear registration expenses (exclusive of transfer taxes, underwriters’ discounts and commission) of all such registrations required.
  The stockholders of Former ADMA also have registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issued in the Merger in exchange for shares of Former ADMA’s common stock and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options they hold, pursuant to the Investors’ Rights Agreement.  They have agreed to waive their piggy back registration rights with respect to the Investor Registration Statement; however, they will be entitled to require the filing of a resale registration statement pursuant to the Investors’ Rights Agreement.
  Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, we are obligated to cause securities to be delivered to non-affiliates without any restrictive legends if the resale of such securities has been registered, such securities have been sold pursuant to Rule 144 or, in certain circumstances, if such securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144.  If we fail to do so, we are obligated to pay to the investor, for each $1,000 of shares, $1 per trading day, increasing to $2 per trading day five trading days after such damages have begun to accrue, until unrestricted certificates are delivered.  In addition, if the Company fails to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c), then the Company is obligated to pay to an investor, for any delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the securities, an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate subscription amount of such investor’s securities on the date of such current public information failure and on every 30th day thereafter (prorated for shorter periods) until the failure is cured or public information is no longer required for a Rule 144 sale.
  Former ADMA entered into a Placement Agency Agreement, dated February 12, 2012, with the exclusive placement agent in the 2012 Financing.
  In connection with the 2012 Financing, the Lead Investors each entered into a lock-up agreement with the Placement Agent in reference to a Placement Agency Agreement, dated February 12, 2012 by and between the Company and the Placement Agent, and agreed that until August 11, 2012, it would not offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of common stock, or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of common stock, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.  Such restrictions do not apply, subject to certain conditions, to transactions relating to (i) bona fide gifts, (ii) shares of common stock acquired in the open market on or after the completion of the Merger, (iii) the transfer of shares of common stock to a family member or a trust for the benefit of the restricted party or a family member (including by will or intestacy) or (iv) a distribution to the partners, members or shareholders of the restricted party, provided that the recipient agrees in writing prior to such transfer to be bound by the foregoing restrictions.
  Participation in Public Offering / Directed Share Program
  We have filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with our proposed public offering of shares of common stock (File No. 333-186579).  Certain of our existing stockholders, including Aisling Capital II, LP, Burrill Capital Fund IV, LP and certain other affiliates, have indicated an interest in purchasing an aggregate of up to approximately $10 million of our common stock in this public offering. Of this amount, the underwriters have reserved $1 million for purchase by our directors, executive officers, certain of their affiliates and others associated with us through a directed share program.   We can offer no assurances that we will be able to complete the offering.  In addition, even if we do complete the offering, because indications of interest are not binding agreements or commitments to purchase, the underwriters may sell more, less or no shares in the offering to any of these persons, or any of these persons may determine to purchase more, less or no shares in the offering.
