The Company has disclosed that the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the 2020 Annual Meeting is June 3, 2020 (the “Record Date”).

THIS SOLICITATION IS BEING MADE BY VIA ACQUISITION CORP. AND NOT ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY (THE “BOARD”) OR MANAGEMENT.

The Company's public disclosure indicates that the size of the Board is set at five (5) directors.

We are soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2020 Annual Meeting for the election of our four director nominees –Terence T. Herzog, Eric M. Weiss, Esq., Evan P. Kostorizos and Lance B.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED AT THE 2020 ANNUAL MEETING

PROPOSAL ONE: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company's public disclosure indicates that the size of the Board is set at five (5) directors. We understand that there are currently only three (3) directors serving on the Board and two (2) vacancies. We are soliciting proxies from the holders of shares of Common Stock to elect our four (4) Nominees to the Board to serve for a one-year term that expires at the 2021 Annual Meeting. Proposal No. 1 provides for the election of Terence T. Herzog, Eric M. Weiss, Esq., Evan P. Kostorizos and Lance B. Friedman to serve as directors. We do not oppose one of the Company’s nominees, Mr. James Renna. However, we do not endorse any other director nominees of the Company. Information concerning the background and experience of our Nominees is set forth below.

If all four (4) of our Nominees are elected, such Nominees will represent a majority of the members of the Board. In the event that our Nominees comprise less than a majority of the Board following the Annual Meeting, there can be no assurance that any actions or changes proposed by our Nominees will be adopted or supported by the full Board. The director candidates who receive the most votes will be elected to fill the available seats on the Board. That means the five (5) nominees for director receiving the greatest number of votes cast at the 2020 Annual Meeting will be elected.

INFORMATION REGARDING OUR NOMINEES

We are soliciting proxies for the election of Terence T. Herzog, Eric M. Weiss, Esq., Evan P. Kostorizos and Lance B. Friedman as directors of the Company. Set forth below are the name, age, business address, present principal occupation, employment history and directorships of each of the Nominees for at least the past five years.¹

Name and Business Address		Age, Present Principal Occupation, Five Year Employment History and Directorships

Terence T. Herzog 300 East 46^th Street New York, NY 10017		Mr. Herzog, 77, is the President of Herzog Capital Management Inc., a corporate advisory business. Mr. Herzog has been in the financial industry for over 50 years. Mr. Herzog became a Registered Representative in 1965 and went on to become a partner in a New York Stock Exchange brokerage firm managing sales teams as well as generating new business for the investment banking department. Later, Mr. Herzog went on to start his own money management firm managing more than $12 billion in futures, equities and government securities markets. Mr. Herzog has completed a number of firsts in the financial industry including becoming the first market maker in options on the American Stock Exchange as well as creating the first non-mortgage backed securitized debt (Carpacks). Mr. Herzog also has extensive experience in the startup world. Mr. Herzog has been an officer and/or director of over 30 companies across a number of industries. We believe that Mr. Herzog’s significant financial expertise and experience makes him well qualified to serve on the Board.

Eric M. Weiss, Esq. 180 Summit Avenue Montvale, NJ 07645		Mr. Weiss, 65, has served, in an independent contractor capacity, as an operating officer and adviser to the Board of Directors of Montvale Surgical Center, in Montvale New Jersey since August 2018 (the surgical center was subject to a sale for which a special fiscal agent was appointed in connection with a shareholder law suit). Mr. Weiss also served as President and CFO of TBT Group, Inc. since June 2007. Prior to that, he served as CFO of Ashley Reed Trading Co. from 2005 to 2006. He served as President and CFO of Big Fat Worldwide from 2004 to 2005. From 1992 to 2000, he served as Executive Vice President & General Counsel of Active Media Services, Inc., a leading company in the media trading business. Mr. Weiss worked as an associate at the law firm of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher and Flom from 1987-1990 and Davis Polk and Wardell from 1984-1987. From 1978-1981, Mr. Weiss worked as a CPA at Coopers & Lybrand. Mr. Weiss earned a Juris Doctor from Duke Law School, a Master of Business Administration from the University of Chicago and a Bachelor of Science from New York University. We believe that Mr. Weiss’s extensive executive, financial and accounting experience would make him a valuable addition to the Board.

¹ The foregoing information has been furnished to VIA by the respective Nominees, each of whom is at least 18 years of age and has consented to serve as a director of the Company if elected. None of the entities referenced above is a parent or subsidiary of the Company.

Evan P. Kostorizos 2 Blossom Terrace Larchmont, NY 10538		Mr. Kostorizos, 45, is a startup advisor. He served as Compliance Officer of Raise.com from February 2013 to November 2014. Mr. Kostorizos served as Director of Information of CouponTrade from February 2012 to February 2013. He served as Founder and Chairman of Blueshift Innovations Inc. from May 2003 to August 2010. As its founder, he was dedicated to the development of an automated trading system that utilizes forecasts generated from information available in online marketplaces. He served as Director of Community Outreach for Christy Mihos for Governor from February 2006 to July 2006. From October 2003 to March 2004, he served as a paid staffer in Wesley Clark for President. We believe that Mr. Kostorizos’ entrepreneurial background and operational experience would make him a valuable addition to the Board.

Lance B. Friedman 1650 Margaret Street, Jacksonville, FL 32204		Mr. Friedman, 58, began his career in the legal field with a focus in corporate, securities and merger and acquisition transactions, before transitioning to merchant/Investment Banking and business operations in 1987. After having successfully raised investment capital to acquire Mrs. Adler’s Food Corp through Brooklyn Bottling and Canning Corp., acting as CEO and President, he then sold Brooklyn Bottling Canning to a private equity group in 1991. Mr. Friedman then grew a family business in which he provided and led an exit of that company to a NY-based private investment group. In the mid-90s, he was hired by healthcare and real estate magnate Abraham Gosman and Bernard Marden to become a part of senior management in various investment led companies. Subsequently, Mr. Friedman was invited to join EGL Holdings as Managing Director/Partner, a well-known cross border venture capital and boutique investment banking in 2003, in which he led several investments and merchant banking transactions and advisory engagements including the acquisition of RONCO partners with Sanders Morris Harris, served as COO and EVP of Finance of Fletcher-Flora Health Care Systems, Inc., in 2004 where he was integral in the sale of the company to Merge Healthcare on the NASDAQ stock exchange in 2010, and CEO of Instaprin Pharmaceuticals to assist with an exit due to an SEC matter related to a Wells notice issued to the company. Since that time Mr. Friedman has advised or was retained as an outsourced senior manager, work out specialist and/or business development advisor at several large independent broker dealers. Further, he founded and is the principal of Blackstone Capital Advisors, Inc., which is an international boutique financial advisory and merchant banking firm. Mr. Friedman earned a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from American University, cum laude, and a Doctor of Law from Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, Yeshiva University. We believe that Mr. Friedman’s exceptional operational and financial experience would make him a valuable addition to the Board.

AGREEMENTS WITH NOMINEES

We are entering into letter agreements (the "Nominee Agreements") with each of the Nominees with respect to their service as Nominees, to stand for election as directors of the Company at the 2020 Annual Meeting. The Nominee Agreements will each provide, among other things, as follows:

The Nominee acknowledges that he has agreed to become a member of the slate of Nominees to stand for election as directors of the Company in connection with the solicitation of proxies in respect of a proxy contest with management of the Company in respect of the election of directors of the Company at the 2020 Annual Meeting. We will agree to pay the costs of the proxy solicitation.

Each of the Nominees has agreed to serve if elected, and we have no reason to believe that any of the Nominees will be unavailable to serve. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them “FOR” our Nominees. The five candidates receiving the highest number of affirmative votes of the shares represented and voting on this particular matter at the 2020 Annual Meeting will be elected directors of First Choice. Therefore, if we are successful in this proxy solicitation, the Board will be composed of our four Nominees and one other director after the 2020 Annual Meeting.

Other than as disclosed in this Proxy Statement, there is no arrangement or understanding between any of the Nominees and any other person(s) pursuant to which any such Nominee was or is to be selected as a director or nominee of the Company.

We do not expect that any of the Nominees will be unable to stand for election, but, in the event that any Nominee is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, the shares of Common Stock represented by proxies furnished to us will be voted for substitute nominee(s), to the extent this is not prohibited under the Company’s Bylaws and applicable law.

WE STRONGLY URGE YOU TO VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF OUR NOMINEES BY MARKING, SIGNING, DATING AND RETURNING THE ENCLOSED WHITE PROXY CARD IN THE POSTAGE PAID ENVELOPE PROVIDED TO YOU WITH THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

Please do not return any proxy card you may receive from the Company or otherwise authorize a proxy (other than on the WHITE proxy card delivered by us to you) to vote your shares of Common Stock for the Company’s nominees. If you have already submitted a proxy card that may have been sent to you by the Company or otherwise authorized a proxy to vote your shares of Common Stock for the Company’s nominees, it is not too late to change your vote. To revoke your prior proxy and change your vote, simply sign and return the enclosed WHITE proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. Only your latest dated proxy will be counted.

OTHER PROPOSALS

The Company has not yet filed any proxy statement with respect to the 2020 Annual Meeting. Except as set forth in this Proxy Statement, we are not aware of any other matters to be considered at the 2020 Annual Meeting. However, if we learn of any other proposals made a reasonable time before the 2020 Annual Meeting, we will either supplement this Proxy Statement or we will not exercise discretionary authority with respect thereto. If other proposals are made without reasonable time remaining before the 2020 Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies on the WHITE proxy card solicited by us will vote such proxies in their discretion with respect to such matters.

BACKGROUND OF THE SOLICITATION

[●]

REASONS FOR THE SOLICITATION

We are the beneficial owners of 90,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, representing approximately 0.28% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock (based on information disclosed in First Choice’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 regarding the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as of November 6, 2018). Together, VIA and the Nominees beneficially own an aggregate of 144,978 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 0.44% of the shares outstanding. We believe that the Company has great potential, and we hope that our Nominees can work with the Company to unlock that promise.

We believe that under the oversight of the current Board, stockholder value has eroded and stockholder interests have suffered. Among other things:

1) The Company has failed to file a Form 10-K or Form 10-Q since November 2018.

2) The Company has failed to provide stockholders with timely and transparent reporting.

3) The Company has failed to put in place a full-time CEO, either by arranging for the current interim CEO, who also serves as CFO, to step into that position full-time, or, if necessary, pursuing an alternative.

4) The Company has failed to hold an annual meeting of stockholders since December 2016.

5) The trading price of the Company’s stock has declined by approximately [●]% since [●].

Our Nominees Would Bring Independent Directors

and Stockholder Perspectives to the Board

In our view, the Board would benefit from new, stockholder-nominated voices. If elected, our Nominees would seek to improve the Board’s oversight of First Choice’s strategy and corporate governance and help to drive value for stockholders. If elected, we expect that our Nominees will seek to pursue the following steps:

Preservation of cash

Our Nominees will take immediate steps to seek to cut corporate costs, reduce overhead, and find less expensive office space, if required.

Rationalize capital expenditures

We expect that with the addition of our Nominees, the Board will undertake an in-depth review of the Company’s business lines.

Investor Communications

Our Nominees understand the importance of transparent and responsible corporate governance. Within a reasonable period, our Nominees will seek to address the current status of the financial reporting of the Company and improve communications with stockholders.

Explore strategic alternatives

We expect that our Nominees will recommend that the Board retain an investment bank to explore all alternatives for maximizing stockholder value, including a possible sale or merger of the Company. If any such possible strategic alternative were to be pursued, we do not expect that any participant in this solicitation, or any affiliate of any participant, would participate, either as a party to such potential transaction, in any compensated advisory capacity or otherwise.

The Company has operated for more than a year and a half with only an interim CEO. We believe that the current interim CEO and senior management team can make an important contribution to the Company. We anticipate that if elected our Nominees will explore arrangements for the interim CEO to continue in a full-time CEO capacity, and will consider recommending that he be added to the Board. If necessary, our Nominees may also recommend that the Company implement a search process for a new CEO.

Ask these two questions

Do you want to leave the Board in the hands of the same directors who have overseen First Choice in the past?

Can you really trust them to fix the Company’s problems?

Vote to make your voice heard today!

The time for change is here, but we need your support. Together we can make a difference. Please vote the WHITE proxy card as soon as possible.

We firmly believe there is a substantial opportunity to create value at First Choice. Our independent, knowledgeable, and highly experienced Nominees will seek to address the challenges facing the Company and enhance value for all stockholders.

If you have any questions or would like to request additional copies of this Proxy Statement or need assistance in voting your shares, please contact us.

The Company’s By-Laws provide that for business to be properly brought or nominations of persons for election to the Board to be properly made at the time of the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, notice must be received by the Corporate Secretary in compliance with the Company’s By-Laws. The By-Laws provide that a stockholder entitled to vote for the election of directors may nominate persons for election as directors only at an annual meeting and if written notice of such stockholder’s intent to make such nomination or nominations has been given to the Corporate Secretary no less than sixty (60) days nor more than ninety (90) days prior to such meeting, provided, however, that if less than seventy (70) days notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given to stockholders, such nomination shall have been provided to the Corporate Secretary not later than the close of business on the 10^th day following the date on which the notice of meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (such as brokers and banks) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. Some banks and brokers with account holders who are stockholders of the Company may be householding our proxy materials.

A single copy of this Proxy Statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from one or more of the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your bank or broker that it will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement (and annual report, if applicable), please notify your bank or broker and direct your request to the Company at (800) 914-0090 or in writing to the Corporate Secretary at First Choice Healthcare Solutions, Inc., 709 S. Harbor City Blvd., Suite 250, Melbourne, FL 32901. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of this Proxy Statement at their address and would like to request householding of their communications should contact their bank or broker.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE COMPANY

The information concerning the Company contained in this Proxy Statement has been taken from, or is based upon, documents and records on file with the SEC and other publicly available information. Although we have no knowledge that any information contained in this Proxy Statement concerning the Company is inaccurate or incomplete, we have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of such publicly available information.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS RELATING TO THIS PROXY SOLICITATION

The following are some of the questions you may have as a stockholder, as well as the answers to those questions. The following is not a substitute for the information contained elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, and the information contained below is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed descriptions and explanations contained elsewhere in this Proxy Statement. We urge you to read this Proxy Statement carefully and in its entirety.

Who is making this solicitation?

The solicitation for election of the Nominees described in this Proxy Statement at the 2020 Annual Meeting is being made by VIA Acquisition Corp. More information regarding VIA and the other participants in this solicitation is set forth in the section of this Proxy Statement titled “Certain Information Regarding the Participants.”

What are we asking you to vote for?

We are asking you to vote on the WHITE proxy card at the 2020 Annual Meeting as follows:

FOR ALL of Terence T. Herzog, Eric M. Weiss, Esq., Evan P. Kostorizos and Lance B. Friedman.

Why are we soliciting your vote?

Stockholders have not had the opportunity to vote on the Company’s directors since the last annual meeting held on December 14, 2016.

During that period, among other things:

1) The Company has failed to file a Form 10-K or Form 10-Q since November 2018.

2) The Company has failed to provide stockholders with timely and transparent reporting.

4) The Company has failed to hold an annual meeting of stockholders since December 2016.

5) The trading price of the Company’s stock has declined by approximately [●]% since [●].

Who are the Nominees?

We are proposing that Terence T. Herzog, Eric M. Weiss, Esq., Evan P. Kostorizos and Lance B. Friedman be elected as directors of the Company at the 2020 Annual Meeting.

The Company's public disclosure indicates that the size of the Board is set at five (5) directors. We understand that there are currently only three (3) directors serving on the Board and two (2) vacancies. This Proxy Statement is soliciting proxies to elect Terence T. Herzog, Eric M. Weiss, Esq., Evan P. Kostorizos and Lance B. Friedman. As a result, should you so authorize us on the WHITE proxy card, we would cast votes for our four Nominees. The enclosed WHITE proxy card may only be voted for our four Nominees and may not be voted for any of the Company’s director nominees. We do not oppose one of the Company’s nominees, Mr. James Renna. However, we do not endorse any other director nominees of the Company.

You can only vote for the Company’s director nominees by executing and returning a proxy card provided by the Company. Stockholders should refer to the Company’s SEC filings and public notice for the names, backgrounds, qualifications and other information concerning the Company’s nominees.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

First Choice has disclosed that the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the 2020 Annual Meeting is June 3, 2020. Stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the 2020 Annual Meeting.

Stockholders who sell their shares before the Record Date (or acquire them after the Record Date) may not vote such shares. Stockholders of record on the Record Date will retain their voting rights in connection with the 2020 Annual Meeting even if they sell their shares after the Record Date.

What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?

In order to carry on the business of the 2020 Annual Meeting, a quorum must be present. A quorum requires the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a third of the votes entitled to be cast at the 2020 Annual Meeting.

What are Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes?

Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business. Abstentions occur when stockholders are present at the Annual Meeting but choose to withhold their vote for any of the matters upon which the stockholders are voting. “Broker non-votes” occur when other holders of record (such as banks and brokers) that hold shares on behalf of beneficial owners do not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owners before the Annual Meeting and do not have discretionary authority to vote those shares if they do not receive timely instructions from the beneficial owners.

You may vote “FOR” or “WITHHOLD AUTHORITY” for each director nominee. If you vote “WITHHOLD AUTHORITY,” your vote will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum but will have no legal effect on the election of directors under Delaware law.

What are the Methods of Voting?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by mailing a completed WHITE proxy card, via the Internet or in person at the 2020 Annual Meeting. Instructions for voting via the Internet are set forth on the enclosed WHITE proxy card. The Internet voting procedures, including the use of control numbers, are designed to authenticate your identity, to allow you to vote your shares and to confirm that your instructions have been properly recorded.

If you are a street name holder (meaning that your shares are held in a brokerage account by a bank, broker or other nominee), you may direct your broker or nominee how to vote your shares; however, you may not vote in person at the 2020 Annual Meeting unless you have obtained a signed proxy from the record holder giving you the right to vote on your beneficially owned shares. In addition, if you are a street name holder, you may vote via the Internet if your bank or broker makes those methods available, in which case the bank or broker enclosed the instructions with the Proxy Statement.

How many votes are required?

The five nominees for director receiving the greatest number of votes cast will be elected. Abstentions are not counted for purposes of election of directors. If the number of nominees for director exceeds the number of directors to be elected, then a director nominee must receive a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares represented in person or by proxy at the 2020 Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

Properly executed proxies will be voted as directed.

Revocation of Proxies

If you are a registered stockholder (meaning your shares are registered directly in your name with the transfer agent) you may revoke your proxy at any time prior to the vote tabulation at the 2020 Annual Meeting by:

(1) sending in an executed WHITE proxy card with a later date;

(2) timely submitting a proxy with new voting instructions via the internet;

(3) sending a written notice of revocation by mail to the Corporate Secretary of the Company or VIA prior to the 2020 Annual Meeting; or

(4) attending and voting in person by completing a ballot at the 2020 Annual Meeting.

Any stockholder of record as of the record date of the 2020 Annual Meeting attending the 2020 Annual Meeting in person may vote in person whether or not a proxy has been previously given, but the presence (without further action) of a stockholder at the 2020 Annual Meeting will NOT constitute revocation of a previously given proxy.

Although a revocation is effective if delivered to the Corporate Secretary of the Company, we request that either the original or a copy of any revocation be mailed to VIA Acquisition Corp., c/o Anthony Salino at 1 Brush Hill Road, New Fairfield, CT 06812, so that we will be aware of all revocations and can more accurately determine if and when the requisite proxies for the election of our Nominees as directors have been received. Remember, your latest-dated proxy is the only one that counts.

If you are a street name stockholder and you vote by proxy, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker or nominee in accordance with that entity’s procedures.

Whom should I call if I have any questions about the solicitation?

If you have any questions, or need assistance in voting your shares of Common Stock, please call Anthony Salino of VIA at (347) 897-9956.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT, NO MATTER HOW FEW SHARES OF COMMON STOCK YOU OWN. WE URGE YOU TO SIGN, DATE, AND RETURN THE ENCLOSED WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY TO VOTE “FOR ALL” OF THE NOMINEES.

VOTE FOR CHANGE AT FIRST CHOICE -- PLEASE SIGN, DATE AND MAIL THE ENCLOSED WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY
