As disclosed by Issuer in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed January 18, 2022 (the "Form 8-K"), Issuer and certain of its wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated January 14, 2021, with GeneDx, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OPKO Health, Inc. ("OPKO"), GeneDx Holding 2, Inc., and OPKO (the "GeneDx Merger Agreement"). Upon effectiveness of the mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the GeneDx Merger Agreement, GeneDx will become a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Issuer.
Concurrently with the execution of the GeneDx Merger Agreement, Issuer entered into certain related agreements with certain institutional investors, including certain of the Reporting Persons.
Issuer entered into a Subscription Agreement, dated as of January 14, 2022 (the "Subscription Agreement"), with ISMMS and other investors. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement, ISMMS agreed to purchase from Issuer in a private placement 6,250,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the "PIPE Shares") at a purchase price of $4.00 per share for the aggregate purchase price of $25 million as part of a $200 million private placement of Class A Common Stock. The closing of the private placement pursuant to the Subscription Agreement is contingent upon the satisfaction or waiver (if applicable) of certain conditions, as describe in the Subscription Agreement, including without limitation that the closing of the GeneDx merger shall be scheduled to occur substantially concurrently with the closing of the private placement. The Subscription Agreement is described in Item 6 hereof.
ISMMS also entered into a Stockholder Support Agreement dated as of January 14, 2022 (the "Support Agreement") with Issuer and OPKO Health, Inc, as described in Item 6 hereof.
In connection with the PIPE Investment (as described below), ISMMS entered into a lock-up agreement dated as of January 13, 2022 (the "Lock-Up Agreement") with Sema4 pursuant to which ISMMS shall not transfer, or make a public announcement of any intention to transfer, any shares of Class A Common Stock acquired in the private placement or subsequent to January 13, 2022, until one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter. The Lock-Up Agreement is described in Item 6 hereof.
The information in Item 3 of this Amendment No. 1 is incorporated by reference into this Item 4. The Reporting Persons expect to evaluate on an ongoing basis the Issuer's financial condition and prospects and their respective interests in, and intentions with respect to, the Issuer and their respective investments in the securities of Issuer, which review may be based on various factors, including Issuer's business and financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for Issuer's securities in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Accordingly, each Reporting Person reserves the right to change its intentions, as it deems appropriate. In particular, each Reporting Person may, subject to any restrictions on the Reporting Persons pursuant to the agreements entered into in connection with the GeneDx Merger Agreement, at any time and from time to time, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, increase its holdings in Issuer or dispose of all or a portion of the securities of Issuer that such Reporting Person now owns or may hereafter acquire, including sales pursuant to the exercise of the registration rights provided for in the Subscription Agreements (as defined below).
Except as described in this Amendment No. 1, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although, subject to the agreements described herein, the Reporting Persons, at any time and from time to time, may review, reconsider and change their position and/or change their purpose and/or develop such plans and may seek to influence management or the board of Issuer with respect to the business and affairs of Issuer and may from time to time consider pursuing or proposing such matters with advisors, Issuer or other persons. |
