The information set forth in the second paragraph of the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 1 —“Terms of the Offer” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“The Offer is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 15 — “Conditions of the Offer,” which include, among other things, satisfaction of the Minimum Condition.  We can waive certain conditions of the Offer without the consent of Sharps.  We cannot, however, amend or waive the Minimum Condition.”

The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 8 — “Certain Information Concerning Sharps” is hereby amended and supplemented to add, before the last paragraph in such section, the following:

Certain Litigation.  On August 4, 2022, Dan Rodenbach filed a lawsuit concerning the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Transactions”) against Sharps and the directors of Sharps in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.  The case is captioned Rodenbach v. Sharps Compliance Corp. et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-006647 (S.D.N.Y.).  On August 5, 2022, Jeffrey D. Justice, II and Marc Waterman filed additional similar lawsuits concerning the Transactions against Sharps and the directors of Sharps in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.  Those cases are captioned Justice v. Sharps Compliance Corp. et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-06689 (S.D.N.Y.), and Waterman v. Sharps Compliance Corp. et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-06697 (S.D.N.Y.). The three lawsuits assert that Sharps misrepresented or omitted material information pertaining to the Transactions in the Schedule 14D-9 filed on July 25, 2022, including but not limited to the alleged omission of material information regarding the engagement of, and the financial analyses conducted by, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. in connection with the Transactions, and with respect to the alleged omission of material information regarding Sharps’s financial projections.  The lawsuits collectively assert claims under Sections 14 and 20 of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.  The complaints seek injunctive relief, damages, declaratory relief, litigation costs, and other unspecified costs and relief.

As of August 8, 2022, Sharps has also received six stockholder demand letters, which generally seek that certain allegedly omitted information in the Schedule 14D-9 be disclosed.

The outcome of these lawsuits and demand letters cannot be predicted with certainty; however, Sharps believes that they are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.  Additional lawsuits or demand letters may be filed against or received by Sharps, its directors, or other parties in connection with the Transactions.  If additional similar complaints or demand letters are filed or served, absent new or different allegations that are material, Sharps will not necessarily announce such additional filings.”

The information set forth in the third paragraph of the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 9 — “Certain Information Concerning Purchaser and Parent and the Aurora Funds” is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following:

“Curtis Bay Medical Waste Services (“Curtis Bay”) is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Parent, and is in turn indirectly owned and controlled by the Aurora Funds.  Curtis Bay includes CBE Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation indirectly controlled by Parent.  CBE Acquisition Corp. has several subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, Curtis Bay Medical Waste Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.  Curtis Bay provides comprehensive medical waste solutions including collection, transfer, transportation, recycling, waste reduction, sharps management, disposal, and consulting services to hospitals, medical offices, pharmacies and other healthcare providers. The company is dedicated to delivering customized, professional responses to all medical waste disposal challenges.”

The information set forth in the fourth and fifth paragraphs of the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 9 — “Certain Information Concerning Purchaser and Parent and the Aurora Funds” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“The name, business address, current principal occupation or employment, five-year employment history and citizenship of each director and executive officer of Parent and Purchaser, and each member of the board of managers and executive officer of Aurora Capital Partners UGP LLC, the general partner of Aurora Capital Partners VI L.P., which manages each of the Aurora Funds, are set forth on Schedule I hereto.

3

During the last five years, none of Parent, Purchaser or any of the Aurora Funds or, to the best knowledge of Parent, Purchaser or each of the Aurora Funds, any of the persons listed in Schedule I to this Offer to Purchase (i) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) has been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding (except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement) that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining such person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, U.S. federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of such laws.”

The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 10 — “Source and Amount of Funds—Debt Financing” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“In connection with its entry into the Merger Agreement, Parent entered into a debt commitment letter (the “Debt Commitment Letter”) with certain financial institutions, providing for incremental commitments to Parent’s existing credit facilities, comprised of (i) a senior secured incremental term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $95.0 million (the “Incremental Term Loan Credit Facility”) and (ii) 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”).

It is anticipated that the proceeds of the Incremental Facilities will be used to partially finance the Merger Amount, refinance existing indebtedness of Sharps and its subsidiaries, to make certain distributions to the Aurora Funds in respect of the Equity Financing, pay related fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and to provide for ongoing working capital and for other general corporate purposes of the Parent and its subsidiaries (including Company and its subsidiaries after giving effect to the Offer and the Merger).

The Incremental Facilities will have the same maturity date of the existing credit facilities of the Parent, which is February 1, 2027.  The Incremental Term Loan Credit Facility will amortize quarterly, starting the first full fiscal quarter after the date of funding, in installments equal to 0.25% of the principal amount of the Incremental Term Loan Facility, with the balance of the Incremental Term Loan Credit Facility being due and payable on February 1, 2027.  The amounts outstanding under the Incremental Facilities will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the Parent’s option, the base rate or the adjusted term SOFR rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin.  The applicable margin for the first four fiscal quarters after the funding date shall be 5.00% per annum for base rate loans and 6.00% per annum for adjusted term SOFR rate loans, and, thereafter, subject to a leverage-based pricing grid as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter.  Other than in respect of the mandatory amortization payments as set forth above, there are no current plans to repay the Incremental Term Loan Credit Facility prior to its stated maturity.

The definitive documentation for the Debt Financing as contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter will contain covenants, events of default and other terms and provisions that have been agreed with the financial institutions and are set forth on the term sheet attached as an exhibit to the Debt Commitment Letter and otherwise consistent with the “Documentation Principles” contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter.

The availability of the Debt Financing is subject to, among other things:

the substantially concurrent consummation of the Merger in accordance with the Merger Agreement in all material respects;

the consummation of the Equity Financing (as may be reduced pursuant to the terms of the Equity Commitment Letter) in an amount equal to the Minimum Equity Contribution (as defined in the Debt Commitment Letter) and the substantially concurrent consummation of the Refinancing (as defined in the Debt Commitment Letter);

the execution and delivery of definitive documentation as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter;

no Material Adverse Effect (as defined as in the Merger Agreement) has occurred since the date of the Merger Agreement;

the receipt by lenders of certain audited and unaudited financial statements of Sharps and its subsidiaries;

4

the payment of all applicable fees and expenses;

the receipt by the lenders of documentation and other information required under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations (including the PATRIOT Act and 31 C.F.R. §1010.230) at least ten business days prior the date of funding; and

the accuracy of the Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations and the Specified Representations (each as defined in the Debt Commitment Letter).

The foregoing summary description of the Debt Commitment Letter does not purport to be a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Debt Commitment Letter and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Debt Commitment Letter, a copy of which is attached as an exhibit to the Schedule TO.”

The information set forth in the third paragraph of the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 13 — “The Transaction Documents—The Merger Agreement” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

The Offer.  The Merger Agreement provides 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.  Our obligation to accept for payment and pay for all Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition and the satisfaction or waiver by Parent or Purchaser of the other conditions set forth in Section 15 — “Conditions of the Offer.”  We can waive certain conditions to the Offer without the consent of Sharps.  We cannot, however, amend or waive other conditions, including the Minimum Condition.  The Merger Agreement provides that each Sharps stockholder who tenders Shares in the Offer will 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.  We have agreed that, unless otherwise contemplated in the Merger Agreement, without the consent of Sharps, we will not: […]”

The information set forth in the third paragraph of the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 13 — “The Transaction Documents—The Merger Agreement—Consents and Approvals” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“Furthermore, Parent, Purchaser and Sharps have agreed to make (and to cause their respective ultimate parent entities to make) any necessary filings under the HSR Act as soon as practicable and no later than thirteen days after execution of the Merger Agreement.  Each of Parent and Sharps agreed to furnish promptly to the FTC, the Antitrust Division, and any other requesting governmental entity any additional information requested by either of them pursuant to the HSR Act or any other antitrust or related law in connection with such filings, including all documents or information requested under 16 C.F.R. § 803.20 or other rules under the HSR Act.  On July 22, 2022, Aurora Equity Partners VI L.P. submitted the necessary filings under the HSR Act.  On August 8, 2022, the waiting period under the HSR Act expired and the HSR Condition was satisfied.”

The information set forth in the first bullet point of the first paragraph of the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 13 — “The Transaction Documents—The Merger Agreement—Conditions to the Merger” is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following:

“The HSR Condition was satisfied on August 8, 2022 when the waiting period under the HSR Act expired.”

The information set forth in the first two paragraphs of the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 13 — “The Transaction Documents—Tender and Support Agreement” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“On July 12, 2022, in connection with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, the following executive officers of Sharps:  W. Patrick Mulloy II, Chief Executive Officer and President of Sharps, and Eric T. Bauer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Sharps,and all of Sharps’ current directors, consisting of : W. Patrick Mulloy II, Sharon R. Gabrielson, Parris H. Holmes, Susan N. Vogt, and Gary R. Enzor, (collectively, the “Supporting Stockholders”) entered into a Tender and Support Agreement with Parent and Purchaser (the “Tender and Support Agreement”).
5


Pursuant to the Tender and Support Agreement, the Supporting Stockholders have agreed to tender in the Offer all Shares beneficially owned by such stockholders (which represent approximately 4.0% of the Shares issued and outstanding), and not withdraw any such Shares previously tendered. The Supporting Stockholders have 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, including, without limitation, any Acquisition Proposal, including any Superior Proposal (or any proposal relating to or intended to facilitate an Acquisition Proposal or a Superior Proposal), 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.”

The information set forth in the first paragraph of the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 15 — “Conditions of the Offer” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“Capitalized terms used in this “The Offer—Section 15—Conditions of the Offer,” but not defined herein have the respective meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other term of the Offer or the Merger Agreement, Purchaser shall not be required to accept for payment or, subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act (relating to Purchaser’s obligation to pay for or return tendered Shares promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the Offer), to pay for any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer and, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, may delay the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, Shares or may terminate or amend the Offer, if:

(a)          the Minimum Condition is not satisfied;

(b)          prior to the Expiration Date, the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement has not expired or been terminated (such waiting period expired on August 8, 2022);

[…]”

The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase under the heading the Offer under Section 15 — “Conditions of the Offer” is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following:

“The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Purchaser and Parent and may be asserted by Purchaser or Parent, in whole or in part at any applicable time or from time to time in their sole discretion.  The determination as to whether a condition has been satisfied will be in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser and Parent and, subject to applicable law, will be final and binding on all parties.

The foregoing conditions shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, the right of Purchaser and Parent to extend, terminate or modify the Offer pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.  See Section 13 — “The Transaction Documents—The Merger Agreement—Amendment and Waiver” for a description of the conditions which the parties to the Merger Agreement have the right to amend or waive.

All conditions to the Offer must be satisfied or waived as of the Expiration Date, unless extended by Purchaser.  If any condition to the Offer is not satisfied or waived by any scheduled Expiration Date, Purchaser will extend the Offer for successive periods of up to ten Business Days per extension until all of the conditions, including the HSR Condition, are satisfied or waived.  In addition, Purchaser will extend the Offer for any period or periods of time required by any applicable law, or applicable rules, regulations, interpretations or positions of the SEC or its staff.  However (i) if, on the scheduled Expiration Date or any extension thereof, all conditions to the Offer other than the Minimum Condition have been satisfied or waived, Purchaser will only be required to extend the Offer beyond such date for one additional period not to exceed an aggregate of ten Business Days to permit the Minimum Condition to be satisfied, and (ii) in no event will Purchaser be required to extend the Offer beyond the Outside Date.”

(A)          such representations and warranties made by the Acquired Business in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Antares Lender, but only to the extent that you or your affiliates have the right to terminate your or your affiliates’ obligations under the Acquisition Agreement (or the right not to consummate the Acquisition pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement) as a result of a failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct as of the Closing Date (except to the extent relating to an earlier date, in which case as of such earlier date) (the “Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations”); and

(B)          the Specified Representations (as defined below); and

(ii)          the terms of the Credit Documentation will not impair availability or funding of the Incremental Facilities on the Closing Date if the conditions expressly set forth in this Schedule I are satisfied or waived (it being understood that, to the extent a perfected security interest in any Collateral (the security interest in respect of which cannot be perfected by means of the filing of a UCC financing statement or delivery of possession of capital stock or other certificated security in respect of the Borrower or wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of the Borrower and the Guarantors) is not able to be provided on the Closing Date after Borrower’s use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, the perfection of such security interest in such Collateral will not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Incremental Facilities on the Closing Date, but a security interest in such Collateral will be required to be perfected after the Closing Date pursuant to arrangements to be mutually agreed between Borrower and the Agent); provided that nothing herein shall limit the applicability of the individual conditions to closing expressly set forth herein except to the extent expressly stated to be subject to this paragraph.

For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” mean the representations and warranties set forth (or incorporated by reference) in the Term Sheet with respect to the Borrower and the Guarantors relating to legal existence, organizational power and authority in each case, related to the entering into, borrowing under, guaranteeing under, performance of, and granting of security interests in the Collateral, pursuant to the applicable Credit Documentation; the authorization, execution and delivery, and legality, validity and enforceability, of the Credit Documentation; the creation, perfection and priority of liens (subject to permitted liens to be set forth in the Credit Documentation and to the limitations on perfection set forth above); Federal Reserve margin regulations; the Investment Company Act; the use of proceeds of the Incremental Facilities not violating the Patriot Act, OFAC, FCPA or any other anti-terrorism, sanctions, anti-money laundering and anti-corruption laws; solvency of Holdings and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis on the Closing Date in form and substance substantially consistent with the form attached hereto as Annex I; and no conflict with charter documents of the Borrower or the Guarantors as it relates to the Credit Documentation.  For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this paragraph are sometimes referred to as the “Funds Certain Provisions”.
