(“Deerfield Mgmt”), (iii) Deerfield Partners, (iv) James E. Flynn, a natural person (“Flynn” and, together with Deerfield Management, Deerfield Mgmt and Deerfield Partners, the “Reporting Persons”), (v) DFHTA Sponsor, LLC, (vi) Steven I. Hochberg, a natural person, and (vii) Lawrence Atinsky, a natural person, with respect to shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of CareMax, Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly known as Deerfield Healthcare Technology Acquisitions Corp.) (the “Issuer” and such Schedule 13D as so previously amended, the “Schedule 13D”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

ITEM 4.

PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION

 

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

 

Merger Agreement

 

As previously disclosed by the Issuer, on May 31, 2022, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among (i) the Issuer, (ii) Sparta Merger Sub I Inc. (“Merger Sub I”), (iii) Sparta Merger Sub II Inc. (“Merger Sub II”), (iv) Sparta Merger Sub III Inc. (“Merger Sub III” and, together with Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II, “Merger Subs” and each a “Merger Sub”), (v) Sparta Merger Sub I LLC (“Merger LLC I”), (vi) Sparta Merger Sub II LLC (“Merger LLC II”), (vii) Sparta Merger Sub III LLC (“Merger LLC III” and, together with Merger LLC I and Merger LLC II, “Merger LLCs” and each a “Merger LLC”), (viii) Sparta Sub Inc. (“SACN Holdco”), (ix) SNCN Holdco Inc. (“SNCN Holdco”), (x) SICN Holdco Inc. (“SICN Holdco” and, collectively with SACN Holdco, SNCN Holdco, Steward National Care Network, Inc. (“SNCN”), Steward Integrated Care Network, Inc. (“SICN”), and Steward Accountable Care Network, Inc. (“SACN”), each a “Target” and, collectively, the “Targets”), (xi) Sparta Holding Co. LLC (the “Seller”), and (xii) Steward Health Care System LLC (“Parent” and, together with the Seller, the “Seller Parties”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire the Medicare value-based care business of the Seller Parties (the “Business”).

 

The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that the parties will concurrently merge (i) Merger Sub I with and into SACN Holdco, with SACN Holdco as the surviving corporation, (ii) Merger Sub II with and into SNCN Holdco, with SNCN Holdco as the surviving corporation and (iii) Merger Sub III with and into SICN Holdco, with SICN Holdco as the surviving corporation (subclauses (i), (ii), and (iii), collectively, the “Initial Merger”). Immediately following the Initial Merger, the parties will merge (i) SACN Holdco with and into Merger LLC I, with Merger LLC I as the surviving company, (ii) SNCN Holdco with and into Merger LLC II, with Merger LLC II as the surviving company, and (iii) SICN Holdco with and into Merger LLC III, with Merger LLC III as the surviving company (subclauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the “Final Merger” and, together with the Initial Merger, the “Merger” and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”). As a result of the Transactions, the Merger LLCs will survive as wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.

 

The aggregate consideration to be paid to the Seller under the Merger Agreement at the closing of the Transactions (the “Closing”) consists of (i) a cash payment of $25.0 million, subject to adjustment as provided in the Merger Agreement, and (ii) 23,500,000 shares (the “Initial Share Consideration”), subject to adjustment as provided in the Merger Agreement, of Class A Common Stock, which the Seller has agreed to distribute to its equityholders immediately following the Closing. Immediately following the Closing, the equityholders of Seller are expected to own, in the aggregate, approximately 21% of the Class A Common Stock. In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that, following the Closing, upon the Company’s achievement of certain milestones specified in the Merger Agreement, the Company will issue to the Seller, for immediate distribution to its equityholders, a number of shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Earnout Share Consideration” and together with the Initial Share Consideration, the “Share Consideration”) that, when added to the Initial Share Consideration, would have represented 41% of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock as of the Closing, in each case after giving effect to issuances of Class A Common Stock between the Closing and June 30, 2023 in connection with the exercise of warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock outstanding as of the Closing, the potential earnout under the CareMax/IMC Transaction and any forfeitures, surrenders or other dispositions to the Company of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of the Closing. If not previously issued, the Earnout Share Consideration will also be issuable upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of the Company.

The Merger Agreement also provides that, in addition to the Share Consideration, at the Closing the Company will issue to certain equityholders of the Seller shares of a newly designated series of preferred stock of the Company, which will provide for voting rights to such Seller equityholders, until the earlier of (i) the two year anniversary of the Closing and (ii) the issuance of the Earnout Share Consideration, in an amount equivalent to the voting rights of the Earnout Share Consideration distributable to such Seller equityholders on certain discrete matters where such Seller equityholders are permitted to vote the Company’s securities in their discretion under an investor rights agreement to be entered into in connection with the Closing.

 

The Merger Agreement also provides for cash payments based on certain accounts receivable of the Targets.

 

The consummation of the Transactions is subject to closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including approval by the Company’s stockholders for purposes of compliance with the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, and receipt of regulatory approvals.

 

The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof, a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 1, 2022.

 

Support Agreement

 

On May 31, 2022, Deerfield Partners entered into a Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with the Company pursuant to which Deerfield Partners has agreed to vote all shares of Class A Common Stock owned by it (i) in favor of the approval of the Merger Agreement and the Transactions (including the issuance of Class A Common Stock to Seller pursuant to the Merger Agreement) and any other matter reasonably necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Transaction and considered and voted upon by stockholders of the Company upon the recommendation of the board of directors of the Company and (ii) against any proposal, action or agreement that, to the knowledge of Deerfield Partners, following notice from the Company, would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article IX of the Merger Agreement not being fulfilled. Pursuant to the Support Agreement, Deerfield Partners also agreed not to sell, transfer, or encumber any such shares of Class A Common Stock (subject to customary exceptions for transfers to affiliates that agree to the same obligations) until the earliest of (i) the Closing, (ii) the date of the termination, or of certain modifications to, the Merger Agreement or related documents as set forth in the Support Agreement, or (iii) February 25, 2023.

 

The foregoing summary of the Support Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof, a copy of which has been filed or incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10 to this Schedule 13D.
