Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 22, 2020, Viveon Health Acquisition Corp.’s (the “Company”) Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-251112) (the “Registration Statement”) related to the initial public offering of the Company (the “IPO”), was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Subsequently, on December 23, 2020, the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-251624) reflecting the increase in the size of the IPO became effective upon filing with the SEC. In connection therewith, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement:
| ● | An Underwriting Agreement, dated December 22, 2020, by and between the Company and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (“Chardan”), as representative of the underwriters; |
| ● | A Warrant Agreement, dated December 22, 2020, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company; |
| ● | A Rights Agreement, dated December 22, 2020, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company; |
| ● | Letter Agreements, dated December 22, 2020, by the Company’s officers, directors and shareholders; |
| ● | An Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated December 22, 2020, by and between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and the Company; |
| ● | A Registration Rights Agreement, dated December 22, 2020, by and between the Company and Viveon Health, LLC ; |
| ● | A Private Placement Warrants Subscription Agreement, dated December 22, 2020, by and between the Company and Viveon Health, LLC (the “Private Placement Warrants Subscription Agreement”); |
| ● | A Stock Escrow Agreement, dated December 22, 2020, by and among the Company, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and the initial shareholders of the Company; |
| ● | Indemnity Agreements, dated December 22, 2020, by and among the Company and the directors and officers of the Company; and |
| ● | An Administrative Services Agreement, dated December 22, 2020, by and between the Company and Viveon Health, LLC. |
On December 28, 2020, the Company consummated the IPO of 17,500,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Common Stock”), and one warrant (“Warrant”) entitling its holder to purchase one-half of a share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per whole share, and one right to receive one-twentieth (1/20) of a share of Common Stock. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $175,000,000. The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 2,625,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any.
As of December 28, 2020, a total of $176,750,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement (as defined below under Item 3.02) were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders. An audited balance sheet as of December 28, 2020 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement will be filed within four business days of the consummation of the IPO.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with Viveon Health, LLC (the “Sponsor”) of 18,000,000 warrants (the “Private Warrants”) to purchase 9,000,000 shares of Common Stock, each at a price of $0.50 per Private Warrant, generating total proceeds of $9,000,000.
The Private Warrants are identical to the warrants sold in the IPO, except that the Private Warrants are non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis, in each case so long as they continue to be held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. Additionally, the Sponsor agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Warrants or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the Private Placement Warrants Subscription Agreement) until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. The Sponsor was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the purchase of the Private Warrants.
The Private Warrants were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transaction did not involve a public offering.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On December 22, 2020, in connection with the IPO, the Company filed its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State. The terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation are set forth in the Registration Statement and are incorporated herein by reference.
