Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 8, 2022 by Oyster Point, Oyster Point entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 7, 2022 (the "Merger Agreement"), with Viatris Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), and Iris Purchaser Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Purchaser"). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that as soon as practicable following the consummation of the Offer (as defined below) and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified conditions, Purchaser will be merged with and into Oyster Point (the "Merger") in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement by Oyster Point stockholders, with Oyster Point continuing as the surviving corporation. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser commenced a cash tender offer (the "Offer") to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Oyster Point, par value $0.001 per share (the shares thereof being referred to as the "Shares") for (i) $11.00 per share in cash (the "Cash Amount") plus (ii) the right to receive one contingent value right payment ("CVR)" per share, which represents the right to receive a Milestone Payment (as defined in the Offer), defined as $1.00 per share in cash if Milestone One (as defined below) is achieved or $2.00 per share in cash if Milestone Two (as defined below) is achieved, net of applicable withholding taxes and without interest (the Cash Amount plus one CVR, collectively, or any higher amount per Share paid pursuant to the Offer, the "Offer Price"). Milestone One will be met if Oyster Point both (i) recognizes at least $21.6 million net revenue from sales of TYRVAYA® (varenicline solution) Nasal Spray for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022; and (ii) achieves at least 131,822 total TYRVAYA Nasal Spray prescriptions in the United States for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 ("Milestone One"). Milestone Two will be met if Oyster Point both (i) recognizes at least $24.0 million net revenue from sales of TYRVAYA Nasal Spray for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022; and (ii) achieves at least 146,469 total TYRVAYA Nasal Spray prescriptions in the United States for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 ("Milestone Two"). If Milestone One is achieved and Milestone Two is not achieved, the stockholders who had shares of Oyster Point's common stock acquired by Parent in connection with the Offer shall receive a Milestone Payment of $1.00 per share in cash. If Milestones One and Two are achieved, the stockholders who had shares of Oyster Point's common stock acquired by Parent in connection with the Offer shall receive a Milestone Payment of $2.00 per share in cash. If Milestone One is not achieved, no Milestone Payment will become payable and stockholders who had shares of Oyster Point's common stock acquired by Parent in connection with the Offer shall not receive additional consideration.

The Offer and related withdrawal rights expired at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time, on December 31, 2022 (one minute following 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on December 30, 2022) (the "Offer Expiration Time"). American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the Offer, has advised Purchaser that a total of 23,175,135 Shares (together with any Shares then owned by Purchaser and its "affiliates" (as such term is defined in Section 251(h)(6)(a) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"))) had been validly tendered (and not properly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer prior to the Offer Expiration Time, representing approximately 85.3% of the outstanding Shares as of the Offer Expiration Time. Accordingly, the Minimum Condition (as defined in the Offer) has been satisfied. . . .
