Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Business Combination Agreement

 

On June 26, 2023, ExcelFin Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ExcelFin”), Betters Medical Investment Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Betters”), Baird Medical Investment Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Betters (“PubCo”), Betters Medical Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub” and, together with PubCo, each, individually, an “Acquisition Entity” and, collectively, the “Acquisition Entities”), and Tycoon Choice Global Limited, a business company limited by shares incorporated under the Laws of the British Virgin Islands and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Betters (“Tycoon”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”). ExcelFin, together with Betters, PubCo, Merger Sub and Tycoon are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.”

 

The Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Transactions”) were unanimously approved by ExcelFin’s board of directors. The Transactions were also unanimously approved by the board of directors of each of PubCo, Merger Sub, Betters and Tycoon, approved by the shareholders of Betters, approved by the sole shareholder of Tycoon and approved by the sole shareholder of Merger Sub.

 

The Business Combination

 

The Business Combination Agreement provides that, among other things, (1) Betters will contribute all of the issued and outstanding shares of Tycoon (“Tycoon Shares”) to PubCo in exchange for ordinary shares of PubCo (“PubCo Ordinary Shares”) with a pre-transaction equity value of $300 million (the “Share Contribution”), and upon the consummation of the Share Contribution, Tycoon will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo and Betters will be issued an additional 29,411,764 PubCo Ordinary Shares; and (2) following the consummation of the Share Contribution, Merger Sub will merge with and into ExcelFin, with ExcelFin continuing as the surviving entity and wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (the “Merger”), as a result of which (a) the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock and the undesignated preferred stock of ExcelFin (collectively, the “SPAC Stock”) immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) shall be exchanged for PubCo Ordinary Shares concurrently with the Merger; and (b) the holders of public warrants to purchase one share of ExcelFin Class A Common Stock (the “Public Warrants”) shall will receive warrants issued by PubCo to acquire an equal number of PubCo Ordinary Shares (the “PubCo Warrants”).

 

 

 

 

Following the consummation of the Transactions, ExcelFin will be a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo, and Tycoon will be a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo. Tycoon will hold approximately 99% of the issued and outstanding equity of its underlying operating subsidiaries.

 

The Transactions are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2023, subject to customary closing conditions, including the required approval by the stockholders of ExcelFin (the “SPAC Stockholders”).

 

Consideration

 

Each public unit of ExcelFin outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically divided and the holder thereof shall be deemed to hold one share of ExcelFin Class A Common Stock and one-half of a Public Warrant, which underlying securities shall be converted as set forth below and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement.

 

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action required on the part of any Party or the holders of securities of ExcelFin:

 

(1)SPAC Stock: Each share of SPAC Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to redemptions) shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive one PubCo Ordinary Share.

 

(2)Public Warrants: Each Public Warrant outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into a PubCo Warrant representing the right to purchase one PubCo Ordinary Share.

 

(3)Private Warrants: ExcelFin SPAC LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) will surrender to ExcelFin for cancellation all of its private placement warrants to purchase one share of ExcelFin Class A Common Stock (the “Private Placement Warrants”) for no consideration.

 

Earnout

 

Immediately following the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”), 30% of the PubCo Ordinary Shares to be held by Sponsor (the “Earnout Shares”) will be subject to the following vesting and forfeiture conditions:

 

(1)if at any time from the Closing through the fifth anniversary of the Closing (a) the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) for any 20 trading days during a 30-day trading period is at least $12.50 or (b) there is a change of control of PubCo, the Earnout Shares will fully vest; and

 

(2)if, by the fifth anniversary of the Closing, the Earnout Shares have not vested, they will automatically be cancelled.

 

Governance

 

The Parties have agreed to take actions such that, effective immediately after the Closing: (1) the board of directors of PubCo (the “PubCo Board”) shall consist of seven directors, four of whom meet the standard of independence of companies subject to the rules and regulators of Nasdaq; (2) the members of the PubCo Board shall include four individuals designated by Betters, one individual designated by ExcelFin and two individuals appointed jointly by Betters and ExcelFin; and (3) Ms. Haimei Wu, the Chief Executive Officer of Betters, will serve as the initial Chair of the PubCo Board. Additionally, the officers of Tycoon as of the effective time of the Merger will become all of the officers of PubCo.

Betters has agreed to pay to ExcelFin a break-up fee (the “Break-Up Fee”) in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) ExcelFin’s reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in connection with the Transactions and (2) $6,000,000 if the Business Combination Agreement is terminated by Betters due to the failure to consummate the Transactions by the Outside Date, unless a breach or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of SPAC under the Business Combination Agreement or the Sponsor under the Sponsor Support Agreement was the proximate cause of the failure to consummate of the Transactions by the Outside Date.

 

A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference, and the foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto. The Business Combination Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective Parties made to each other as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective Parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the Parties in connection with negotiating the Business Combination Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Business Combination Agreement are also modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules which are not filed publicly, and which are subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to shareholders and were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the Parties rather than establishing matters as facts. ExcelFin does not believe that these schedules contain information that is material to an investment decision.

Forward Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K (including certain of the exhibits hereto) includes certain statements that are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or ExcelFin’s, Betters’ or PubCo’s future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “could”, “should”, “expect”, “intend”, “might”, “will”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “budget”, “forecast”, “intend”, “plan”, “potential”, “predict”, “potential” or “continue”, or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by ExcelFin and its management, and Betters and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain.

None of PubCo, ExcelFin, or Betters undertakes any duty to update these forward-looking statements.

The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Additional information concerning certain of these and other risk factors is contained in ExcelFin’s most recent filings with the SEC and will be contained in the proxy statement/prospectus expected to be filed in connection with the proposed Transactions. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning ExcelFin, Betters, PubCo or Tycoon, the Transactions described herein or other matters attributable to ExcelFin, Betters, PubCo, Tycoon or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above.
