Item 6.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or another enterprise if serving at the request of the corporation. Depending on the character of the proceeding, a corporation may indemnify against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person indemnified acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.


In the case of an action by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification may be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that, despite the adjudication of liability, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper. Section 145 further provides that to the extent a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above, or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith.

Delaware law authorizes a corporation to limit or eliminate the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages for breach of a director’s fiduciary duty of care. Delaware law further enables corporations to limit available relief to equitable remedies such as injunction or rescission. Absent the limitations authorized by Delaware law, directors are accountable for monetary damages for conduct constituting gross negligence in the exercise of their duty of care. The Registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of its directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Accordingly, the Registrant’s directors will not be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for breach of the duty of loyalty, for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, for the unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or for any transaction in which a director has derived an improper personal benefit.

The Registrant’s Bylaws require it to indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in our right) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. Indemnification is not, however, permitted under the Bylaws unless the person acted in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful. The Bylaws further provide that the Registrant shall not indemnify any person for any liabilities or expenses incurred by such person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Registrant in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Registrant (or such other corporation or organization) unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper. The indemnification provided by the Bylaws is not exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be otherwise entitled.

The Registrant’s has entered into indemnification agreements with certain of its directors and officers. The indemnification agreements provide that the Registrant will indemnify these directors and officers against all liabilities and expenses actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (including an action by or in the right of the Registrant) to which any of them is, was or at any time becomes a party, or is threatened to be made a party, by reason of their status as a director or officer, or by reason of their serving or having served at the request or on behalf of the Registrant as a director, officer, trustee or in any other comparable position of any other enterprise to the fullest extent allowed by law.

The Registrant has also obtained director’s and officer’s liability insurance.

Item 9.

Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.


(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.


SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the city of Bethlehem, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, on this 27th day of March 2023.

Re:

Securities Being Registered under Registration Statement on Form S-8

We have acted as counsel to you in connection with your filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on or about the date hereof relating to an aggregate of 1,648,033 shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock, $0.000001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of OraSure Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), that may be issued pursuant to the Company’s Inducement Restricted Share Award Agreement and Inducement Restricted Unit Award Agreement with certain employees, which were granted as inducements material to the individuals party thereto entering into employment with the Company (the “Inducement Grant Agreements”).

We have reviewed such documents and made such examination of law as we have deemed appropriate to give the opinions set forth below. We have relied, without independent verification, on certificates of public officials and, as to matters of fact material to the opinion set forth below, on certificates of officers of the Company.

The opinion set forth below is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law.

For purposes of the opinion set forth below, we have assumed that no event occurs that causes the number of authorized shares of Common Stock available for issuance by the Company to be less than the number of then unissued Shares.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, upon issuance and delivery against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Inducement Grant Agreements, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

This opinion letter and the opinion it contains shall be interpreted in accordance with the Core Opinion Principles as published in 74 Business Lawyer 815 (Summer 2019).

We hereby consent to the inclusion of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving our consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

Very truly yours,

/S/ GOODWIN PROCTER LLP

Exhibit 99.1

RESTRICTED SHARE INDUCEMENT AWARD AGREEMENT

This Restricted Share Inducement Award Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into as of [DATE] between OraSure Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“OraSure” or the “Company”), and [Recipient] (“Participant”).

OraSure hereby awards to the Participant the number of restricted shares of OraSure common stock set forth in Section 1.2 of this Agreement, subject to the restrictions and on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Award”).

OraSure and Participant agree as follows:

1. Grant of Restricted Shares.

 

  1.1

Incorporation of Plan Terms. This Award constitutes a non-plan “inducement award” as contemplated by NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c)(4) and is therefore not made pursuant to the OraSure Technologies, Inc. Stock Award Plan (the “Plan”). Nonetheless, the terms and provisions of the Plan are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference, as if this Award had been granted pursuant to the Plan. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the same meaning as defined in the Plan. A copy of the Plan has been provided to the Participant along with this Agreement.

 

  1.2

Shares Subject to Award. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, OraSure hereby issues to Participant [xxx,xxx] shares of Common Stock (the “Restricted Shares”). The Restricted Shares shall Vest in accordance with Appendix A, subject to Participant’s continued employment by OraSure or its Subsidiaries (except as otherwise provided herein). This Award is in full satisfaction of OraSure’s obligations under Section [Section #] of that certain Employment Agreement between OraSure and Participant dated [Date of employment agreement] (the “Employment Agreement”).

2. Terms of Restricted Shares. The Restricted Shares shall be subject to all applicable provisions of the Plan and to the following terms and conditions:

 

  2.1

Transfer Restrictions. None of the Restricted Shares, nor any rights with respect thereto, may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered, or otherwise disposed of, voluntarily or involuntarily, until such Shares become Vested in accordance with this Agreement. The foregoing restrictions are in addition to any other restrictions on transfer of the Restricted Shares arising under federal or state securities laws or other agreements with OraSure. Any purported sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, or other disposition of Restricted Shares in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void.

 


  2.2

Vesting of Restricted Shares. Subject to Participant’s continued employment by OraSure or its Subsidiaries (except as otherwise provided herein), the Restricted Shares shall become Vested, and the restrictions set forth in Section 2.1 with respect thereto shall expire, in accordance with the vesting schedule in Appendix A. The terms of this Agreement, including but not limited to, the number of Restricted Shares which shall become Vested in accordance with this Agreement, shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 13.2 of the Plan.

 

  2.3

Termination of Employment. If Participant’s employment by OraSure and its Subsidiaries is terminated for any reason, all of the Restricted Shares that are not then Vested shall be forfeited to OraSure on the date of such termination with no payment to Participant.

3. Rights as Stockholder. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Participant shall be entitled to all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted Shares issued hereunder, including the right to vote such Restricted Shares and to receive cash dividends or distributions (if any) payable with respect to such Restricted Shares; provided that any cash dividends or distributions paid with respect to the Restricted Shares will be accrued by OraSure and paid to Participant only upon the vesting of the Restricted Shares to which they relate. Similarly, any stock dividends issued with respect to the Restricted Shares before the Restricted Shares have become Vested shall be treated as additional Restricted Shares subject to this Agreement and shall become Vested as the Restricted Shares with respect to which such stock dividends were issued become Vested.

4. Share Certificates. OraSure may issue stock certificate(s) or evidence the Participant’s interest by using a restricted book entry account with the Company’s transfer agent. Physical possession or custody of any stock certificate(s), to the extent issued, shall be retained by OraSure until such time as the Restricted Shares are Vested or forfeited as provided in this Agreement. To the extent stock certificate(s) are issued, Participant shall execute and deliver to OraSure a separate stock power in blank with respect to each certificate for the Restricted Shares. The certificate(s), if any, representing Restricted Shares that have not yet become Vested shall bear a legend in substantially the following form, or to the extent a restricted book entry account is used, a notation to the same effect shall be used:

THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED AS RESTRICTED SHARES AND ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON THEIR SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, OR OTHER DISPOSITION SET FORTH IN A RESTRICTED SHARE INDUCEMENT AWARD AGREEMENT DATED AS OF JUNE 4, 2022. A COPY OF THE RESTRICTED SHARE INDUCEMENT AWARD AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO ORASURE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Certificates for the Restricted Shares, to the extent issued (or otherwise recorded in book entry format), may also bear any other restrictive legends or notations (in physical or electronic form) required by law or any other agreement.

 

-2-


5. Federal Tax Election. Participant agrees to promptly notify OraSure if Participant makes an election under Internal Revenue Code Section 83(b) with respect to the Restricted Shares. Participant acknowledges that such an election must be made within 30 days after the issuance of the Restricted Shares.

6. Withholding Taxes. OraSure will have the right to deduct from any compensation payable to Participant any federal, state, or local taxes required to be withheld with respect to the issuance or Vesting of the Restricted Shares. Participant will make arrangements acceptable to OraSure for the full satisfaction of any such tax withholding obligations not later than the time that such obligations arise. To the extent authorized by the Committee, the withholding tax obligations arising in connection with this Award may be satisfied by the withholding by OraSure of a portion of the Shares subject hereto that have Vested. Such Restricted Shares will be valued based on their Fair Market Value on the date of withholding. Any stock withholding with respect to Participant will be subject to such limitations as the Committee may impose to comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act.

7. Other Documents. Participant agrees to furnish OraSure any documents or representations OraSure may require related to the Restricted Shares or this Agreement to assure compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

8. Administration. This Agreement and the rights of Participant hereunder are subject to such rules and regulations as the Committee may adopt for administration of the Plan. It is expressly understood that the Committee is authorized to administer, construe, and make all determinations necessary or appropriate to the administration of this Agreement, all of which will be binding upon Participant.

9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including terms of Appendix A and Plan incorporated herein, contains the parties’ entire agreement regarding the Award evidenced hereby and merges and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous discussions, agreements and understandings of every nature relating thereto.

10. No Right to Continued Service. This Agreement shall not confer upon Participant any right to be retained in service by OraSure or its Subsidiaries for any specified period, nor limit the right of OraSure to terminate Participant’s service at any time, for any reason.

11. Conflicts. To the extent the terms of this Agreement are inconsistent or in conflict with the terms of the Employment Agreement or the Plan, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

12. Notices. Any notices under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be effective when actually delivered personally or, if mailed, when deposited as certified mail, directed to OraSure at its principal offices, to Participant at the address maintained in OraSure’s records, or to such other address as either party may specify by notice to the other party.

13. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to any contrary conflicts of laws rules.

14. Successorship. Subject to the restrictions on transferability of the Restricted Shares set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, this Agreement shall be binding upon and benefit the parties, their successors and assigns.

  2.1

Transfer Restrictions. Except as expressly provided in Sections 2.2 through 2.4, none of the Restricted Units, or any rights under this Agreement, may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of, voluntarily or involuntarily, by Participant. The foregoing restrictions are in addition to any other restrictions on transfer of the Restricted Units arising under federal or state securities laws or other agreements with OraSure. Any purported sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, or other disposition of Restricted Units in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void and may and will be enjoined.

 

  2.2

Vesting of Restricted Units. Subject to Participant’s continued employment by OraSure or its Subsidiaries and except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.3 and 2.4, the actual number of Restricted Units that shall become Vested on the Vesting Date and settled in accordance with Section 2.5 shall be determined by multiplying (x) the Restricted Units by (y) the Applicable Percentage (based on the actual level of achievement of the Revenue Amount, in accordance with the table and the following paragraph below) by (z) the TSR Modifier.


Revenue Amount

   Applicable Percentage

Threshold: $[    ]

   [    ]%

If the Revenue Amount achieved falls between the levels set forth in the preceding table the Applicable Percentage shall be determined using linear interpolation, provided, however, that if the Revenue Amount is between $[    ] and $[    ], the Applicable Percentage shall be deemed to be [    ]%. No portion of the applicable Restricted Units shall become Vested if the Revenue Amount is less than the Threshold amount shown above, and in such event the affected Restricted Units shall be forfeited to OraSure with no payment or issuance of shares to Participant. To the extent the Revenue Amount exceeds the Maximum amount shown above, the Applicable Percentage shall remain at [    ]%, subject to the TSR Modifier.

3. No Rights as Stockholder; Dividend Equivalents. Participant shall not be entitled to any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of OraSure common stock underlying the Restricted Units issued hereunder unless and until such shares of OraSure common stock are issued to Participant in settlement of the Restricted Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participant shall be entitled to dividend equivalents in an amount equal to any stock dividends paid and additional shares issued as a result of stock splits occurring during the vesting period with respect to the shares of OraSure common stock underlying any Restricted Units issued hereunder that subsequently become Vested Restricted Units, which dividend equivalent or stock split amount shall be paid or issued to participant in cash or additional shares of common stock, at the discretion of the Committee, at the time such shares of common stock are issued to Participant in settlement of such Vested Restricted Units.

Alternatively, Participant may, by written notice to the Committee that complies with any applicable timing restrictions imposed pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, elect to satisfy all or a part of the withholding tax obligations incident to the Vesting of the Restricted Shares and the issuance of shares of OraSure common stock in settlement of such Vested Restricted Units by having OraSure withhold a portion of the shares of OraSure common stock that would otherwise be issuable to Participant. Such shares will be valued based on their Fair Market Value on the date the tax withholding is required to be made. Any stock withholding with respect to Participant will be subject to such limitations as the Committee may impose to comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act.

“R” represents the Company’s TSR measured over the Performance Period.
