On December 21, 2007, LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing completion of the acquisition described in Item 8.01 below.
The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by this reference.

Item 8.01.    Other Events
On December 20, 2007, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with Diaco S.p.A. and Invesco S.p.A., each an Italian limited share company (together, "Sellers"), to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests in Biomateriali S.r.l., an Italian limited liability company ("Biomateriali"), from Sellers.
The purchase price for this acquisition consists of Euro 1,800,000 in cash, adjusted by an amount equal to any change in the tangible net worth of Biomateriali between December 31, 2006, and December 20, 2007 (the amount of any such change to be finally determined no later than May 18, 2008). For purposes of this purchase price adjustment, "tangible net worth" means the total assets of Biomateriali, less its intangible assets and liabilities. A first payment of Euro 1,300,000 was made at the closing of the acquisition, and the balance is to be paid on March 20, 2009.
As additional consideration for the acquisition, the Company agreed to pay Euro 795,000 of intercompany liabilities of Biomateriali; these liabilities are owed to Invesco S.p.A. and affiliates of Sellers. These intercompany liabilities are to be paid as follows: Euro 355,000 on March 31, 2008, Euro 200,000 on January 30, 2009, and Euro 240,000 on March 31, 2009. The Company also agreed to make up to Euro 1,500,000 in contingent payments to Sellers or third parties in connection with the termination of certain distribution arrangements; these payments would be made upon termination of such arrangements, but no later than January 15, 2012.
Other provisions of the Agreement include a five-year non-competition covenant on the part of Sellers, transitional assistance from Sellers, and indemnification by Sellers for losses arising out of or relating to breaches of, and misrepresentations under, the Agreement.
For purposes of comparison, one Euro was equal to 1.4398 U.S. Dollars at the closing of the acquisition, based on the average exchange rate on December 20, 2007.
