Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Business Combination Agreement

 

On June 21, 2021, Big Cypress Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, Big Cypress Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) SAB Biotherapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SAB) and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, as the stockholder representative to the SAB stockholders . The Business Combination Agreement provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into SAB, with SAB surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Upon the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), it is anticipated that the Company will change its name to “SAB Biotherapeutics , Inc.” (“New SAB”). The date on which the Closing actually occurs is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

 

The Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Business Combination.”

 

The Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were approved by the boards of directors of each of the Company and SAB.

 

Consideration and Structure

 

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) the outstanding preferred stock of SAB will convert into common stock and at the Effective Time, (i) the outstanding common (including the converted preferred stock) of SAB (collectively, the “SAB Shares”) will be automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into a number of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Company New Shares”), based on SAB’s equity value; (ii) each outstanding vested and unvested option to purchase SAB Shares will be canceled in exchange for a comparable option to purchase Company New Shares, based on SAB’s equity value; and (iii) each unvested award of restricted SAB Shares will be converted into a comparable right to receive restricted Company Shares, based on SAB’s equity value, in each of the foregoing cases, allocated in the manner described in the Business Combination Agreement. For purposes of the Business Combination Agreement, SAB’s equity value is $300.0 million.

 

In addition to the foregoing consideration, SAB stockholders shall be entitled to receive, as additional consideration, and without any action on behalf of the Company, Merger Sub, or the Company’s stockholders, additional Company New Shares (the “Earnout Shares”), to be issued as follows during the period from and after the Closing until the fifth anniversary of the Closing (the “Earnout Period”) (A) 3,000,000 Earnout Shares, if the VWAP (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) of Company Shares is greater than or equal to $15.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) within a period of thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days, (B) 3,000,000 Earnout Shares, if the VWAP of Company Shares is greater than or equal to $20.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days, (C) 3,000,000 Earnout Shares, if the VWAP of Company Shares is greater than or equal to $25.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days, and (D) 3,000,000 Earnout Shares, if the VWAP of Company Shares is greater than or equal to $30.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days. During the Earnout Period, if New SAB experiences a Change of Control (as defined as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), then any Earnout Shares not already earned and issued to the SAB stockholders shall be deemed earned and the balance of the Earnout Shares shall be issuable by New SAB to the SAB stockholders immediately prior to consummation of such Change of Control transaction.

 

The Business Combination is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, following the receipt of the required approval by the Company’s stockholders and the fulfilment of other customary closing conditions.

The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants of the parties set forth in the Business Combination Agreement will terminate at Closing, except for those covenants and agreements that, by their terms, contemplate performance after Closing. Each of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions and things necessary to consummate the Business Combination.

Termination

 

The Business Combination Agreement may be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the Closing, including, but not limited to, (i) by the mutual written consent of the Company and SAB; (ii) by the Company, subject to certain exceptions, if any of the representations or warranties made by SAB are not true and correct or if SAB fails to perform any of its respective covenants or agreements under the Business Combination Agreement (including an obligation to consummate the Closing) such that certain conditions to the obligations of the Company, could not be satisfied and the breach (or breaches) of such representations or warranties or failure (or failures) to perform such covenants or agreements is (or are) not cured or cannot be cured within the earlier of (A) thirty (30) days after written notice thereof, and (B) December 15, 2021 (the “Termination Date”); (iii) by SAB, subject to certain exceptions, if any of the representations or warranties made by the Company or Merger Sub are not true and correct or if the Company or Merger Sub fail to perform any of their covenants or agreements under the Business Combination Agreement (including an obligation to consummate the Closing) such that the conditions to the obligations of SAB could not be satisfied and the breach (or breaches) of such representations or warranties or failure (or failures) to perform such covenants or agreements is (or are) not cured or cannot be cured within the earlier of (A) thirty (30) days after written notice thereof, and (B) the Termination Date; (iv) by either the Company or SAB, if the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are not consummated on or prior to the Termination Date, unless the breach of any covenants or obligations under the Business Combination Agreement by the party seeking to terminate proximately caused the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; (v) by either the Company or SAB, if (A) any governmental entity shall have issued an order or taken any other action permanently enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and such order or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; or (B) if the Required Company Stockholder Vote is not obtained; and (vi) by the Company, if SAB does not deliver, or cause to be delivered to the Company, the SAB stockholder written consent or the SAB Stockholder Support Agreements (as defined below) when required under the Business Combination Agreement.

The Business Combination Agreement is being filed to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the parties to the Business Combination Agreement. In particular, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Business Combination Agreement, which were made only for purposes of the Business Combination Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties (including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Business Combination Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts) and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors, security holders and reports and documents filed with the SEC.

Other Agreements

 

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates the execution of various additional agreements and instruments, on or before the Closing, including, among others, the following:

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements made herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding future events, the Business Combination between the Company and SAB, the estimated or anticipated future results and benefits of the combined company following the Business Combination, including the likelihood and ability of the parties to successfully consummate the Business Combination, future opportunities for the combined company, and other statements that are not historical facts. These statements are based on the current expectations of the Company’s management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on, by any investor as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company and SAB. These statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties regarding the Company’s businesses and the Business Combination, and actual results may differ materially. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general economic, political and business conditions; the inability of the parties to consummate the Business Combination or the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Business Combination Agreement; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the parties following the announcement of the Business Combination; the receipt of an unsolicited offer from another party for an alternative business transaction that could interfere with the Business Combination; the risk that the approval of the stockholders of the Company or SAB for the potential transaction is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, including as a result of a delay in consummating the potential transaction or difficulty in integrating the businesses of the Company or SAB; the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; the amount of redemption requests made by the Company’s stockholders; the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the post-acquisition company’s securities on Nasdaq following the Business Combination; costs related to the Business Combination; and those factors discussed in the Company’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering, dated January 11, 2021, and filed with the SEC on January 12, 2021, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on April 2, 2021, in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on May 21, 2021, and other filings with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or if assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that the Company presently does not know or that the Company currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements provide the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. The Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s assessments to change. However, while the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
