  ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

 

The information set forth in Item 4 hereof is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3, as applicable. The source of funds for acquiring the securities described herein was the working capital of each of Deerfield Partners, Deerfield Private Design Fund IV and the Sponsor. The securities described in this report as being beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons are or may be held from time to time in margin accounts established with the direct holder’s brokers or banks, and a portion of the purchase price for the securities reported herein may have been obtained through margin borrowing. Securities held in margin accounts may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the margin accounts.

 

  ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION

 

Founder Shares

 

On December 30, 2019, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 4,312,500 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”), from the Issuer in exchange for a capital contribution of $25,000. In January 2020, the Sponsor transferred 100,000 Founder Shares to each of Hochberg, Christopher Wolfe, the Issuer’s Chief Financial Officer, and Richard Barasch, the Issuer’s Executive Chairman, and 30,000 Founder Shares to each of Dr. Jennifer Carter, Dr. Mohit Kaushal and Dr. Gregory Sorensen, the Issuer’s directors, for the same per-share price initially paid by the Sponsor, resulting in the Sponsor holding 3,922,500 Founder Shares. On February 19, 2020, the Issuer effected a 1:1 1/3 stock split of its shares of Class B common stock resulting in the Sponsor holding 5,360,000 Founder Shares. The Class A Common Stock held by Hochberg and reported herein is held for the benefit, and at the direction, of Deerfield Management.

 

The Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on the first business day following the consummation of the Issuer’s initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A Common Stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in connection with the Issuer’s initial business combination, the ratio at which the Founder Shares will convert into shares of Class A Common Stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding Founder Shares agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding after such conversion (after giving effect to any redemptions of Class A Common Stock by public stockholders), including all shares of Class A Common Stock issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued by the Issuer in connection with or in relation to the consummation of its initial business combination, excluding any shares of Class A Common Stock or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A Common Stock issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial business combination and any warrants issued upon conversion of working capital loans, provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.

 

 

Public Units

 

On March 13, 2020, each of Deerfield Private Design Fund IV and Deerfield Partners purchased 2,500,000 units of the Issuer for $10.00 per unit, or $50,000,000 in the aggregate, in the Issuer’s initial public offering. Each unit consists of one share of Class A Common Stock and one-fourth of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment.

 

Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement

 

On March 13, 2020, the Sponsor purchased from the Issuer an aggregate of 3,733,334 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) pursuant to the terms of a private placement warrants purchase agreement, dated as of March 10, 2020 (the “Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement”). The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the warrants included in the units sold by the Issuer in its initial public offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, (i) are not redeemable by the Issuer, (ii) may not (including the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Private Placement Warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by such holders until 30 days after the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination, (iii) may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis and (iv) will be entitled to registration rights.

 

The foregoing description of the Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.

 

Letter Agreement

 

On March 10, 2020, the Sponsor and Hochberg agreed, pursuant to a letter agreement with the Issuer (the “Letter Agreement”), to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares and shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Issuer’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Issuer’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Class A Common Stock if the Issuer has not consummated an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering or with respect to any other material provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Issuer fails to complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any other shares of Class A Common Stock they hold if the Issuer fails to complete its initial business combination within the prescribed time frame). If the Issuer submits its initial business combination to its stockholders for a vote, the Sponsor and Hochberg have agreed to vote their Founder Shares in favor of the initial business combination, and the Sponsor and Hochberg has also agreed to vote any other shares of Class A Common Stock in favor of the initial business combination.

 

 

The Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof are each subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to lock-up provisions in the Letter Agreement. Those lock-up provisions provide that such securities are not transferable or salable (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination or (B) subsequent to the initial business combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial business combination, or (y) the date on which the Issuer complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Issuer’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property, and (ii) in the case of the Private Placement Warrants and any shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof until 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination, except in each case (a) to the Issuer’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the Issuer’s officers or directors, any members of the Sponsor, or any affiliates of the Sponsor, (b) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of one of the members of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of one of the individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such person or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers made in connection with any forward purchase agreement or similar arrangement or in connection with the consummation of an initial business combination at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; (f) in the event of the Issuer’s liquidation prior to the completion of our initial business combination; (g) by virtue of the laws of Delaware or the Sponsor’s limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Sponsor; or (h) in the event of our liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of the Issuer’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to our completion of the initial business combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e) or (g) these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement agreeing to be bound by these transfer restrictions and the other restrictions contained in the Letter Agreement and by the same agreements entered into by the Sponsor with respect to such securities (including provisions relating to voting, the trust account and liquidation distributions described elsewhere in this prospectus). In addition, the Private Placement Warrants and the shares underlying those warrants may not be sold transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the Registration Statement or commencement of sales of the public offering, except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the offering and their bona fide officers or partners, provided that all securities so transferred remain subject to the lockup restriction above for the remainder of the time period.

 

In addition, the Letter Agreement provides that in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor, members of the Issuer’s management team or their affiliates may, but is not obligated to, loan to the Issuer funds as may be required. If the Issuer completes an initial business combination, the Issuer would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, the Issuer may use a portion of the working capital held outside its trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from its trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants of the post business combination entity at a price of $1.50 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Except as set forth above, the terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

 

The foregoing description of the Letter Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Letter Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.

 

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

On March 10, 2020, the Issuer, the Sponsor, Hochberg and the other holders named therein entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer granted the Sponsor, Hochberg and the other holders registration rights with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants, shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Placement Warrants, and securities that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans. The Sponsor and other holders of such securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Issuer register such securities for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In addition, these holders have “piggy-back” registration rights to include such securities in other registration statements filed by the Issuer.

 

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.

 

Plans or Proposals

 

The Reporting Persons do not have any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) – (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons have acquired the shares reported herein for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Issuer’s common stock, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons and their representatives may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, engaging in communications with members of the Issuer’s board of directors, members of the Issuer’s management and/or other stockholders of the Issuer from time to time with respect to potential business combination opportunities and operational, strategic, financial or governance matters, or otherwise work with management and the Issuer’s board of directors to identify, evaluate, structure, negotiate, execute or otherwise facilitate a business combination, purchasing additional shares and/or warrants, selling some or all of its shares of common stock and/or warrants, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the ordinary shares, including swaps and other derivative instruments, or changing its intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4. Among other things, the Reporting Persons may introduce the Issuer to potential candidates for a business combination, or propose one or more business combinations with potential candidates, which may include candidates that are affiliates of one or more Reporting Persons or in which one or more Reporting Persons otherwise has an equity or other interest. In addition, as the Issuer’s chief executive officer and member of the Issuer’s board of directors, Hochberg will be involved in reviewing transactions that may result in a business combination. The Reporting Persons may purchase shares of the Issuer’s common stock and/or warrants in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to, in connection with or following the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination. The purpose of any such purchases of shares could be to vote such shares in favor of the business combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining stockholder approval of the business combination or to satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target that requires the Issuer to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash at the closing of the Issuer’s initial business combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. The purpose of any such purchases of warrants could be to reduce the number of warrants outstanding or to vote such warrants on any matters submitted to the warrantholders for approval in connection with the Issuer’s initial business combination. Any such purchases of the Issuer’s securities may result in the completion of the initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible.
