Exhibit 4.4

CAREMAX, INC.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES REGISTERED PURSUANT TO

SECTION 12 OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED

 

As of December 31, 2022, CareMax, Inc. (“we,” “our,” “us” or the “Company”) had the following two classes of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”): (i) Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Class A Common Stock”) and (ii) public warrants, exercisable for one share of Class A common stock for $11.50 per share (the “Public Warrants”).

 

The following summary of the material terms of our securities is not intended to be a complete description of all of the rights and preferences of such securities. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you, and is qualified by reference to our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Charter”), the Amended and Restated Bylaws, the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, as amended, the Investor Rights Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, which are exhibits to this Annual Report. We urge you to read each of the Amended and Restated Charter, the Amended and Restated Bylaws, the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, as amended, the Investor Rights Agreement and the Warrant Agreement in their entirety for a complete description of the rights and preferences of our securities.

 

 

Authorized and Outstanding Stock

 

 

The Amended and Restated Charter authorizes the issuance of 261,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 260,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, including 250,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Class B Common Stock” and together with the Class A Common Stock, “Common Stock”), and (ii) 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

 

As of December 31, 2022, there were 111,332,584 shares of Class A Common Stock, 0 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding and one (1) share of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”), outstanding. We have also issued 5,791,667 warrants consisting of 2,875,000 Public Warrants and 2,916,667 warrants (the “Private Warrants” and together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) originally issued in a private placement to DFHTA Sponsor LLC in connection with the company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”).

 

 

Common Stock

 

 

The Amended and Restated Charter provides the following with respect to the rights, powers, preferences and privileges of the Common Stock.

 

 

Voting Power

 

 

Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Unless otherwise specified in the Amended and Restated Charter, or as required by applicable provisions of the DGCL or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares of Common Stock that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by our stockholders.

 

 

Dividends

 

 

Holders of Common Stock will be entitled to receive ratable dividends when, as and if declared by The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) out of funds legally available therefor.

 

 

Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up

 

 


In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of shares, if any, having preference over each class of Common Stock.

 

 

Preemptive or Other Rights

 

 

Our stockholders will have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There will be no sinking fund provisions applicable to the Common Stock.

 

 

Preferred Stock

 

The Amended and Restated Charter authorizes 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock and provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board will be authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. The Board will be able to, without stockholder approval, issue shares of preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of the Board to issue shares of preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of the Company or the removal of existing management.

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

In connection with the Steward Acquisition (as defined in the Annual Report), we issued one share of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company. The new Series A Preferred Stock is a single series of CareMax’s authorized preferred stock. On November 10, 2022, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock, establishing the rights, preferences, powers, restrictions and limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”). The Certificate of Designation authorized one share of Series A Preferred Stock and became effective upon filing.

 

Dividends

 

Dividends will not be payable on the Series A Preferred Stock.

 

Liquidation

 

In the event of any Change in Control (as defined in the Merger Agreement), voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding will not be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company for distribution to stockholders.

 

Voting

 

Each holder of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to vote with holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, with respect to the Special Matters (as defined below), and has no other voting rights. In any such vote, each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to the number of votes such that the voting power of the holder, together with the shares of Class A Common Stock transferred to such holder immediately following the closing, would be the voting power the holder would have had if the Steward Earnout Share Consideration was earned as of the closing and distributed proportionately to such holder, and which shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Common Stock), reclassification, combination, exchange of shares, or other like change with respect to the Common Stock occurring on or after the date of issuance. Each holder of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to notice of all stockholder meetings (or requests for written consent) in accordance with the Amended and Restated Bylaws.

 

“Special Matters” means any of the following actions taken by the Company: (i) solely if a vote of the Common Stock is required by the DGCL or the listing rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market, or such other national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is primarily listed, the issuance of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the


Company (or any security convertible into or exercisable for shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Company), other than (A) the issuance of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Company (or any security convertible into or exercisable for shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Company) to directors, officers, employees, or consultants of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates as compensation in connection with their service as such, or (B) the issuance of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Company (or any security convertible into or exercisable for shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Company), the proceeds of which will be used solely to repay indebtedness of the Company and related expenses; and (ii) a Change in Control (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in which the enterprise value of the Company is less than $2,500,000,000.00.

 

Redemption

 

At any time on or after the earlier of (a) the date that is two (2) years after the date of issuance or (b) the date that the Earnout Class A Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) first become issuable pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company shall have the right to elect to have, out of funds legally available therefor, all (but not less than all) of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed by the Company (a “Series A Redemption”) for a price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to $0.0001 for each share (the “Series A Redemption Price”). Any such Series A Redemption shall occur not more than sixty (60) days following receipt by the holders of Series A Preferred Stock of a written election notice (the “Series A Redemption Notice”) from the Company specifying (i) the date of the closing of the redemption (the applicable date, the “Series A Redemption Date”) and (ii) the manner and place designated for surrender by each holder to the Company of his, her, or its certificate or certificates representing the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed. In exchange for the surrender to the Company by the respective holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock of their certificate or certificates representing such shares in accordance with the procedures set forth below, the aggregate Series A Redemption Price for all shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by each holder shall be payable in cash in immediately available funds to the respective holders of the Series A Preferred Stock on the applicable Series A Redemption Date.

 

On or before the Series A Redemption Date, each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock will surrender the certificate or certificates representing such shares to the Company, in the manner and place designated in the Series A Redemption Notice, duly assigned or endorsed for transfer to the Company (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto), or, in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen or missing, shall deliver an affidavit of loss, in the manner and place designated in the Series A Redemption Notice. Each surrendered certificate will be canceled and retired and the Company will thereafter make payment of the applicable Series A Redemption Price by certified check or wire transfer to the holder of record of such certificate.

If on the applicable Series A Redemption Date, the Series A Redemption Price is paid (or tendered for payment) for any of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Series A Redemption Date, then on such date all rights of the holder in the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed and paid or tendered, including any rights to dividends on such shares, will cease, and such shares of Series A Preferred Stock will no longer be deemed issued and outstanding.

 

Conversion

 

The Series A Preferred Stock is not be convertible into any other class or series of capital stock of the Company.

 

Warrants

 

 

Public Warrants

 

 

Each whole Public Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time, provided in each case that we have an effective registration statement under the of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) covering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or we permit holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the Warrant Agreement) and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, a holder may exercise its Public Warrants only for a whole number of shares of Class A Common Stock. This means only a whole Public Warrant may be exercised at a given time by a holder. No fractional Public Warrants were issued and only whole Public Warrants


trade. The Public Warrants will expire five years after June 8, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

 

 

We are not obligated to deliver any Class A Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A Common Stock underlying the Public Warrants is effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration. No Public Warrant is exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue a share of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of a Public Warrant unless the share of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the Public Warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a Public Warrant, the holder of such Public Warrant will not be entitled to exercise such Public Warrant and such Public Warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any Public Warrant.

 

 

We agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen (15) business days after the closing of our initial business combination, to use our best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants. Our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333- 257574) was declared effective by the SEC on July 15, 2021, as amended and supplemented from time to time, is intended to register such shares of Class A Common Stock under the Securities Act. We will use our best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant Agreement. Warrant holders may during any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if our Class A Common Stock is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event we do not so elect, we will use our best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

 

 

Redemption of Warrants when the price per share of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00

 

 

Once the Warrants become exercisable, we may redeem the outstanding Warrants (except as described herein with respect to the Private Warrants):

 

 

• in whole and not in part;

• at a price of $0.01 per Warrant;

• upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”); and

• if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the exercise price of a Warrant) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before we send to the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders.

 

 

If and when the Warrants become redeemable by us for cash, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

The last of the redemption criterion discussed above was established to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of warrants, each Warrant holder will be entitled to exercise his, her or its Warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the Class A Common Stock may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $11.50 exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

 

 

Redemption of Warrants when the price per share of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00

We may redeem the outstanding Warrants (except as described herein with respect to the Private Warrants):


 

 

• in whole and not in part;

• at $0.10 per Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to the table below, based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of the Class A Common Stock (as defined below) except as otherwise described below; and

• if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before we send the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders.

 

 

Beginning on the date the notice of redemption is given until the Warrants are redeemed or exercised, holders may elect to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis. The numbers in the table below represent the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that a Warrant holder will receive upon such cashless exercise in connection with a redemption by us pursuant to this redemption feature, based on the “fair market value” of the shares of Class A Common Stock on the corresponding redemption date (assuming holders elect to exercise their Warrants and such Warrants are not redeemed for $0.10 per Warrant), determined for these purposes based on volume weighted average price of the Class A Common Stock during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Warrants, and the number of months that the corresponding redemption date precedes the expiration date of the Warrants, each as set forth in the table below. We will provide the Warrant holders with the final fair market value no later than one business day after the 10-trading day period described above ends.

 

The share prices set forth in the column headings of the table below will be adjusted as of any date on which the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant or the exercise price of a Warrant is adjusted as set forth under the heading “Anti-dilution Adjustments” below. If the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant is adjusted, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the share prices immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a Warrant as so adjusted. The number of shares in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant. If the exercise price of a Warrant is adjusted, (a) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the fifth paragraph under the heading “Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the higher of the fair market value and the newly issued price as set forth under the heading “Anti-dilution Adjustments” and the denominator of which is $10.00 and (b) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the second paragraph under the heading “Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price less the decrease in the exercise price of a Warrant pursuant to such exercise price adjustment.

The exact fair market value and redemption date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case, if the fair market value is between two values in the table or the redemption date is between two redemption dates in the table, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued for each Warrant exercised will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of shares set forth for the higher and lower fair market values and the earlier and later redemption dates, as applicable, based on a 365 or 366-day year, as applicable. For example, if the volume weighted average price of the shares of Class A Common Stock during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the Warrants is $11.00 per share, and at such time there are 57 months until the expiration of the Warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their warrants for 0.277 shares of Class A Common Stock for each whole Warrant. For an example where the exact fair market value and redemption date are not as set forth in the table above, if the volume weighted average price of Class A Common Stock during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the Warrants is $13.50 per share, and at such time there are 38 months until the expiration of the Warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their Warrants for 0.298 shares of Class A Common Stock for each whole Warrant. In no event will the Warrants be exercisable on a cashless basis in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 shares of Class A Common Stock per Warrant (subject to adjustment). Finally, as reflected in the table above, if the Warrants are out of the money and about to expire, they cannot be exercised on a cashless basis in connection with a redemption by us pursuant to this redemption feature, since they will not be exercisable for any shares of Class A Common Stock.

 

 

This redemption feature differs from the typical warrant redemption features used in many other blank check offerings, which typically only provide for a redemption of warrants for cash (other than the Private Warrants) when the trading price for the common stock exceeds $18.00 per share for a specified period of time. This redemption feature is structured to allow for all of the outstanding warrants to be redeemed when the Class A Common Stock is trading at or above $10.00 per public share, which may be at a time when the trading price of the Class A Common Stock is below the exercise price of the Warrants. We have established this redemption feature to provide us with the flexibility to redeem the Warrants without the Warrants having to reach the $18.00 per share threshold set forth above under “Redemption of Warrants when the price per share of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00.” Holders choosing to exercise their Warrants in connection with a redemption pursuant to this feature will, in effect, receive a number of shares for their Warrants based on an option pricing model with a fixed volatility input. This redemption right provides us with an additional mechanism by which to redeem all of the outstanding Warrants, and therefore have certainty as to the capital structure as the Warrants would no longer be outstanding and would have been exercised or redeemed. We will be required to pay the applicable redemption price to Warrant holders if we choose to exercise this redemption right, which will allow us to quickly proceed with a redemption of the Warrants if we determine it is in our best interest to do so. As such, we would redeem the Warrants in this manner when we believe it is in our best interest to update our capital structure to remove the Warrants and pay the redemption price to the Warrant holders.

 

 

As stated above, we can redeem the Warrants when the Class A Common Stock is trading at a price starting at $10.00, which is below the exercise price of $11.50, because it will provide certainty with respect to the capital structure and cash position while providing Warrant holders with the opportunity to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis for the applicable number of shares. If we choose to redeem the Warrants when the Class A Common Stock is trading at a price below the exercise price of the Warrants, this could result in the Warrant holders receiving fewer shares of Class A Common Stock than they would have received if they had chosen to wait to exercise their Warrants for shares of Class A Common Stock if and when such shares of Class A Common Stock were trading at a price higher than the exercise price of $11.50.


 

 

No fractional shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued upon exercise. If, upon exercise, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued to the Warrant holder. We have agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to register under the Securities Act the securities issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants.

 

 

Redemption Procedures

 

 

A Warrant holder may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such Warrant holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (as specified by such holder) of the Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

 

 

Anti-dilution Adjustments

 

 

If the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock is increased by a share capitalization payable in shares of Class A Common Stock, or by a split-up of common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such share capitalization, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of common stock. A rights offering made to all or substantially all holders of common stock entitling holders to purchase Class A Common Stock at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a share capitalization of a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A Common Stock) and (ii) the quotient of (x) the price per share of the Class A Common Stock paid in such rights offering and (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Class A Common Stock, in determining the price payable for Class A Common Stock, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of shares of Class A Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Class A Common Stock trades on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

 

 

In addition, if we, at any time while the Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to all or substantially all the holders of Class A Common Stock on account of such Class A Common Stock (or other securities into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described in the paragraph immediately above or (b) certain ordinary cash dividends or $0.50 per annum subject to adjustment, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Class A Common Stock in respect of such event.

 

 

If the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share split or reclassification of Class A Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding share of Class A Common Stock.

 

 

Whenever the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as described above, the exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of Class A Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

 

 

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding  —  (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such shares ), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation


(other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding Class A Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the Warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Warrants and in lieu of the Class A Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of Class A Common Stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the Warrants would have received if such holder had exercised the Warrants immediately prior to such event. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Class A Common Stock in such a transaction is payable in the form of Class A Common Stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the exercise price will be reduced as specified in the Warrant Agreement based on the Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined in the Warrant Agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the Warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the Warrants pursuant to which the holders of the Warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the Warrants.

 

The Warrants are issued in registered form under the terms of the Warrant Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The Warrant Agreement provides that the terms of the Warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder for (i) the purpose of curing any ambiguity or, or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained in the Warrant Agreement, (ii) to provide for the delivery of Alternative Issuance (as defined in the Warrant Agreement). or (iii) adding or changing any provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the warrant agreement as the parties to the warrant agreement may deem necessary or desirable and that the parties deem to not adversely affect the rights of the registered holders of the warrants. The approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then-outstanding Public Warrants is required to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of Public Warrants, and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the Private Warrants, 50% of the then outstanding Private Warrants. You should review a copy of the Warrant Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants.

 

 

The Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of Warrants being exercised. The Warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Class A Common Stock and any voting rights until they exercise their Warrants and receive Class A Common Stock. After the issuance of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrants, each Warrant holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

 

 

Private Placement Warrants

 

 

The Private Warrants (including the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Warrants) were not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the Closing Date (except, among other limited exceptions to certain persons or entities affiliated with the initial purchasers of the Private Warrants) and they will not be redeemable by us for cash so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. The initial purchasers, or their permitted transferees, have the option to exercise the Private Warrants on a cashless basis. Except as described herein, the Private Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Public Warrants. If the Private Warrants are held by holders other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by us and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

 

 

If holders of the Private Warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering his, her or its Warrants for that number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” of the Class A Common Stock (defined below) over the exercise price of the


Warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” will mean the average closing price of the Class A Common Stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is sent to the warrant agent. The agreement that the Private Warrants would be exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they were held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees was due to the fact that it was not known at the time of issuance whether such initial purchasers would be affiliated with us following the Closing. Because of their affiliation with us, such initial purchasers’ ability to sell our securities in the open market is significantly limited. We have policies in place that prohibit insiders from selling our securities except during specific periods of time. Even during such periods of time when insiders will be permitted to sell our securities, an insider cannot trade in the securities if he or she is in possession of material non-public information. Accordingly, unlike public stockholders who could exercise their warrants and sell the shares of Class A Common Stock received upon such exercise freely in the open market in order to recoup the cost of such exercise, the insiders are significantly restricted from selling such securities.

 

 

Dividends

 

 

We have not paid any cash dividends on the Class A Common Stock to date and do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenue and earnings, if any, capital requirements, liabilities and related reserves, and general financial condition. The payment of any cash dividends will be within the discretion of the Board from time to time and subject to applicable Delaware law. It is the present intention of the Board to retain all earnings, if any, for use in business operations and, accordingly, the Board does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future. Further, the Company’s ability to declare dividends is currently limited by restrictive covenants in connection with the Company’s credit facility.

 

 

Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent

 

 

The transfer agent for our Class A Common Stock and warrant agent for our Warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. We have agreed to indemnify Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in its roles as transfer agent and warrant agent, its agents and each of its stockholders, directors, officers and employees against all claims and losses that may arise out of acts performed or omitted for its activities in that capacity, except for any liability due to any gross negligence or intentional misconduct of the indemnified person or entity.

 

 

Anti-Takeover Provisions

 

 

Business Combinations

 

 

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:

 

 

• a stockholder who owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an “interested stockholder”);

• an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

• an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

• the Board approves the transaction that made the stockholder an “interested stockholder,” prior to the date of the transaction;

• after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or

• on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the initial business combination is approved by the Board and authorized at a meeting of our stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

 

 


Authorized but Unissued Shares

 

 

Our authorized but unissued Common Stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved Common Stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

 

 

Exclusive Forum for Certain Lawsuits

 

 

The Amended and Restated Charter provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring any: (i) derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company; (ii) action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any of the our directors, officers or other employees or our stockholders; (iii) action asserting a claim against us, our directors, officers or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Amended and Restated Charter or Amended and Restated Bylaws; or (iv) action asserting a claim against us, our directors, officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine, and if brought outside of Delaware, the stockholder bringing the suit will be deemed to have consented to service of process on such stockholder’s counsel, except for, as to each of (i) through (iv) above, any claim (A) as to which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following the determination), (B) that is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, (C) for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction, or (D) any action arising under the Securities Act as to which the Court of Chancery and the federal district court for the District of Delaware shall have concurrent jurisdiction.

 

 

Under the Securities Act, federal and state courts have concurrent jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act, and stockholders cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such a forum selection provision as written in connection with claims arising under the Securities Act.

 

 

This forum selection clause may also discourage claims or limit stockholders’ ability to submit claims in a judicial forum that they find favorable and may result in additional costs for a stockholder seeking to bring a claim. While we believe the risk of a court declining to enforce this forum selection clause is low, if a court were to determine the forum selection clause to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs in conjunction with our efforts to resolve the dispute in an alternative jurisdiction, which could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the forum selection clause will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America have exclusive jurisdiction. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

 

Special Meeting of Stockholders

 

 

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority vote of our board of directors, by our Chief Executive Officer or by our Executive Chair or Chair of the Board.

 

 

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

 

 

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice will need to be received by the company secretary at our principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of


stockholders. Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, proposals seeking inclusion in our annual proxy statement must comply with the notice periods contained therein. Our Amended and Restated Bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholders’ meeting. These provisions may preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders.

 

 

Action by written consent

 

 

Any action required or permitted to be taken by our common stockholders must be effected by a duly called annual or special meeting of such stockholders and may not be effected by written consent of the stockholders other than with respect to any shares of Class B Common Stock that may in the future be outstanding.

 

 

Classified Board of Directors

 

 

Our board of directors will initially be divided into three classes, Class I, Class II and Class III, with members of each class serving staggered three-year terms. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, with the result that the holders of more than 50%of the shares voted for the election of directors can elect all of the directors.

 

The Amended and Restated Charter provides that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of the board of directors. Subject to the terms of any preferred stock, any or all of the directors may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Any vacancy on our board of directors, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of our board of directors, may be filled only by vote of a majority of our directors then in office. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our board only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.
