This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D filed by (i) Deerfield Mgmt, L.P. (“Deerfield Mgmt”), (ii) Deerfield Partners, L.P. (“Deerfield Partners”), (iii) Deerfield Management Company, L.P. (“Deerfield Management”) and (iv) James E. Flynn, a natural person (“Flynn” and, collectively with Deerfield Mgmt, Deerfield Partners and Deerfield Management, the “Reporting Persons”), with respect to the Class A common stock (the “Class A Common Stock”) of HighCape Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) (as so previously filed, the “Schedule 13D”).

 

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following:

 

Deerfield Partners’ purchase of the 400,000 Deerfield PIPE Shares (as defined below) will be financed with available cash assets.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following:

 

As disclosed by the Company on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 18, 2021 (the “Current Report”), on February 18, 2021, the Company entered into a business combination agreement, by and among the Company, Tenet Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and Quantum-SI Incorporated (“Quantum-SI”) (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”). If the Business Combination Agreement is approved by the Company’s stockholders and the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are consummated, Merger Sub will merge with and into Quantum-SI, with Quantum-SI surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are referred to herein as the “BC Transactions.”

 

Subscription Agreement

 

Concurrently with the Company’s execution of the Business Combination Agreement, Deerfield Partners entered into a subscription agreement with the Company, dated as of February 18, 2021 (the “Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which Deerfield Partners has agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company has agreed to issue and sell to Deerfield Partners, immediately prior to the closing of the BC Transactions, an aggregate of 400,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (the “Deerfield PIPE Shares”) at a price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $4,000,000.

 

As disclosed by the Company on the Current Report, simultaneously with its entry into the Subscription Agreement, and in connection with the Company’s entry into the Business Combination Agreement, other investors entered into separate subscription agreements with the Company, to purchase an additional 42,100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Other Subscription Agreements”) for an aggregate purchase price of $421,000,000 ($425,000,000 when combined with the purchase price payable by Deerfield Partners (the Company’s private placement of shares of Class A Common Stock to Deerfield Partners and the other investors pursuant to the Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements being referred to herein as the “PIPE Transaction”)). The purpose of the PIPE Transaction is to provide capital to the Company (together with funds in the Company’s trust account not subject to redemptions) in connection with the BC Transactions.

 

The closing of the PIPE Transaction is to occur immediately prior to the closing of the BC Transactions and is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Sponsor Letter Agreement

 

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor, Deerfield Partners, the other Company stockholders signatory thereto, the Company and Quantum-SI entered into a letter agreement, dated as of February 18, 2021 (the “Sponsor Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which Deerfield Partners, the Sponsor and other signatories thereto has agreed to, among other things, (i) vote in favor of the transaction proposals, as set forth in the Business Combination Agreement (including the proposal to approve the Business Combination Agreement and the related transactions contemplated therein) at the special meeting of the Company in connection with the BC Transactions, (ii) be bound by and subject to certain other covenants and agreements of the Business Combination Agreement, as if they were directly party thereto, with respect to Confidentiality and Exclusive Dealing, (iii) not redeem or otherwise exercise any right to redeem any Company equity securities in connection with the BC Transactions, and (iv) be bound by certain transfer restrictions with respect to the Company’s equity securities prior to the closing of the BC Transactions, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions and exclusions set forth in the Sponsor Letter Agreement.

 

The foregoing summaries of the Subscription Agreement and Sponsor Letter Agreement are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the Form of Subscription Agreement and Sponsor Letter Agreement, copies of which are filed or incorporated by reference as Exhibits 6 and 7 to this Schedule 13D, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Plans or Proposals

 

In addition to the Reporting Persons’ disclosures with respect to Plans or Proposals as previously disclosed in the Schedule 13D, as amended hereby, and notwithstanding the Company’s entry into the Business Combination Agreement or the subsequent consummation thereof, the Reporting Persons continue to believe that the Reporting Persons’ expertise, record of generating proprietary investment opportunities, experience evaluating, structuring, financing and executing transactions involving special purpose acquisition companies and/or capital markets transactions may continue to be useful in assisting management and the board on a cooperative basis as the Company embarks on its strategic plans. In that regard, the Reporting Persons may continue to communicate with members of the Company’s board of directors, members of the Company’s management and/or shareholders of the Company from time to time with respect to potential investment and acquisition opportunities and the financing thereof (which may include discussions regarding debt and/or equity financing that could be provided, in whole or in part, by Deerfield Partners and/or affiliated funds), operational matters and such other matters as the Reporting Persons may deem appropriate from time to time. Such matters are likely to include plans or proposals specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the Form of Schedule 13D, but the Reporting Persons have made no determination to pursue, and may not pursue, any such plan or proposal.

 

Depending on various factors and subject to the obligations described herein, the Reporting Persons may take such other actions with respect to their investments in the Company as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, purchasing additional shares of Class A Common Stock and/or warrants or other securities or financial instruments related to the Company or, subject to the terms of the Sponsor Letter Agreement, selling some or all of their beneficial or economic holdings, engaging in hedging or similar transactions with respect to the securities relating to the Company and/or otherwise changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 

Item 6.
