Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

On August 22, 2022, Purchaser purchased 16,951,290 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) in a tender offer (the “Offer”) at a price of $8.75 per share (the “Offer Price”) for an aggregate purchase price of $148,323,787.50. The Offer was made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 12, 2022, by and among Purchaser, Parent and Sharps (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, after the completion of the Offer, on August 23, 2022, Purchaser merged with and into Sharps (the “Merger”) in accordance with Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), with Sharps continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. In the Merger, (i) each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than Shares held in the treasury of Sharps or owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent or Purchaser immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, and Shares owned by any stockholders who properly demanded appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL) were canceled and automatically converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the Offer Price; and (ii) each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Purchaser issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was converted into and became one validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Sharps. Since there were 1,000 shares of Purchaser issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, following the Merger, there were 1,000 shares of Sharps issued and outstanding, all of which were directly owned by Parent. This is the sole Schedule 13D filing by the Reporting Persons in connection with the Offer and the Merger.

The source of funds for the Offer was provided in part by financing pursuant to (i) an equity commitment letter, dated July 12, 2022 (the “Equity Commitment Letter”), from the Aurora Funds to Parent and (ii) an equity contribution made by certain co-investors in the Aurora Funds to Parent (collectively, the “Equity Financing”). Parent in turn provided such funds to the Purchaser to enable Purchaser to purchase the shares of Common Stock tendered in the Offer.

In addition, pursuant to a debt commitment letter, dated July 12, 2022, at the effective time of the Merger, Parent entered into a senior secured incremental term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $95.0 million (the “Incremental Term Loan Credit Facility”) and an increase to Parent’s existing senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million (the “Incremental Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Incremental Term Loan Credit Facility, the “Incremental Facilities”).

The aggregate consideration paid by Purchaser in the Offer and Merger was approximately $177 million. Such consideration was funded with a combination of (i) proceeds from the Equity Financing and (ii) proceeds from the Incremental Facilities.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Purchaser purchased all of the outstanding Common Stock as a strategic investment. Except as described in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons and, to the best of their knowledge, none of the persons listed in Schedule 1 to this Schedule 13D, have a present plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

The information provided and incorporated by reference in Item 6 is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 4.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) and (b)

Items 7 through 11 and 13 of the cover page of this Schedule 13D and the footnotes thereto are incorporated herein by reference.

(c) Except as described herein, neither the Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any other person referred to in Schedule 1 attached hereto has acquired or disposed of any shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days.

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

On July 12, 2022, the Issuer entered into the Merger Agreement with Parent and Purchaser, pursuant to which, among other things, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser agreed, and Parent agreed to cause Purchaser, to make the Offer to purchase all of the outstanding Shares at a purchase price per Share of $8.75, net to the seller in cash, without interest, and subject to any required withholding of taxes.

The descriptions below of the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter and the Tender and Support Agreement (as defined below) are intended as a summary only and each is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreements, each of which are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference herein. The information provided and incorporated by reference in Items 3, 4 and 5 is hereby incorporated by reference herein. Other than as described in this Schedule 13D, to the best of the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer.

The Merger Agreement.

The Offer was made pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement provided that Purchaser must commence the Offer as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any event within thirteen calendar days of the date of the Merger Agreement. Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment and pay for all Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer was subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions. The Merger Agreement provided that each Sharps stockholder who tendered Shares in the Offer would receive $8.75 for each Share validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.

The Merger Agreement provided that, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Merger Effective Time”), Purchaser would be merged with and into Sharps pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. Following the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Purchaser ceased, and Sharps continued as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. The Merger was governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL and was effected on August 23, 2022.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Share (other than any Excluded Shares and any Dissenting Shares (each as defined below)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time was converted automatically into and thereafter represented the right to receive the Offer Price in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), subject to any applicable withholding taxes. Each Share held in the treasury of Sharps or owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent or Purchaser immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (collectively, “Excluded Shares”) was automatically cancelled and ceased to exist, and no consideration was delivered in exchange therefor.

Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time that were held by any stockholder who was entitled to demand and properly demanded appraisal rights of such Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL (“Dissenting Shares”) were not converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. Rather, by virtue of the Merger, such Shares were automatically cancelled and no longer outstanding and ceased to exist, and the holders of such Shares were entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL. If any such stockholder failed to perfect or withdraw or lost any such right to appraisal, each such Dissenting Share of such stockholder was thereupon converted into and became exchangeable only for the right to receive, as of the later of the Merger Effective Time and the time that such right to appraisal was irrevocably lost, withdrawn, or expired, the Merger Consideration in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

Holders who tendered their Shares in the Offer were not entitled to exercise appraisal rights with respect to such Shares, but rather received the Offer Price.

A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

The Equity Commitment Letter.

Pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter, the Aurora Funds committed in the aggregate, subject to the conditions of the Equity Commitment Letter, equity financing, of up to $186.1 million, for the purpose of enabling (i) Parent to cause the Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for all Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, (ii) Parent to pay the consideration due under the Merger Agreement in connection with the Merger to holders of Sharps’ equity, and (iii) Parent and Purchaser to pay any fees, costs, and expenses required to be paid by Parent or Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

A copy of the Equity Commitment Letter is attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

The Debt Commitment Letter

In connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement, Parent also entered into the Debt Commitment Letter, which provided for $110.0 million in the aggregate of debt financing.

A copy of the Debt Commitment Letter is attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Tender and Support Agreement

On July 12, 2022, in connection with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, Sharps’ directors and certain executive officers (collectively, the “Supporting Stockholders”) entered into a Tender and Support Agreement with Parent and Purchaser (the “Tender and Support Agreement”). Pursuant to the Tender and Support Agreement, the Supporting Stockholders agreed to tender in the Offer all shares beneficially owned by such stockholders and not withdraw any such shares previously tendered. The Supporting Stockholders also agreed to vote all shares beneficially owned by them, among other things, (i) in favor of the Merger, the adoption of the Merger Agreement, and any other matters relating to and/or necessary for consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated in the Merger Agreement; (ii) against any action, proposal, agreement, or transaction made in opposition to or competition with the merger or the Merger Agreement, and (iii) against any action, agreement or transaction that would or would be reasonably expected to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, frustrate, prevent or adversely affect the timely consummation of the Offer, the Merger or any of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

A copy of the Tender and Support Agreement is attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Organizational Documents

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Merger Effective Time, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Sharps, as amended, and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of Sharps, as amended, were amended and restated in their entirety.

Delisting and Deregistration

On August 23, 2022, in connection with the consummation of the Merger, Sharps notified the NASDAQ Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) of the consummation of the Merger and requested that Nasdaq suspend trading of the Shares effective as of before the opening of trading on August 23, 2022, and file with the SEC a Form 25 Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration to delist and deregister the Shares under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Nasdaq filed the Form 25 with the SEC on August 23, 2022. Sharps intends to file with the SEC a certification on Form 15 requesting that the Shares be deregistered and that Sharps’ reporting obligations under Section 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act be suspended.

Changes in Officers and Directors

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, W. Patrick Mulloy II, Sharon R. Gabrielson, Parris H. Holmes, Susan N. Vogt, and Gary R. Enzor resigned from the Board of Directors of Sharps, effective as of the Merger Effective Time.

Following consummation of the Merger, the following persons, who were members of the Board of Directors of Purchaser, became the new members to the Board of Directors of Sharps: Angela Klappa, Andrew Wilson, Matthew Laycock, Matthew Asperheim, Charles Veniez, and Robert Weil.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, Eric T. Bauer resigned as an officer of Sharps and terminated employment with Sharps, effective as of August 23, 2022.

Patrick Mulloy II, Chief Executive Officer and President, Diana P. Diaz, Senior Vice President, Secretary, and Chief Accounting Officer, Gregory C. Davis, Vice President of Operations, and Dennis P.
