The terms of the acquisition provide for PainCare to pay Dr. Anderson total consideration of up to $6 million, payable in equal cash and stock payments. In keeping with PainCare's primary acquisition model, 50% of the total consideration, or $3 million, was paid at closing and the remaining balance of $3 million will be paid over three years pursuant to certain predetermined earnings benchmarks being achieved by Desert Pain.
