ONEMEDNET CORPORATION

 

Up to [*] shares of Common Stock

Pre-Funded Warrants to Purchase up to [*] Shares of Common Stock

Warrants to Purchase [*] shares of Common Stock

Shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrants

 

We are offering up to [*] shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) of OneMedNet Corporation, a Delaware corporation (referred to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or other similar pronouns), together with warrants to purchase [*] shares of our Common Stock (and the shares of Common Stock that are issuable from time to time upon exercise of the warrants). We are also offering to certain purchasers whose purchase of shares of Common Stock in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding Common Stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if any such purchaser so chooses, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock, in lieu of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise result in such purchaser’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding Common Stock. Each pre-funded warrant will be exercisable for one share of our Common Stock. The purchase price of each pre-funded warrant and accompanying warrant will be equal to the price at which a share of Common Stock and accompanying warrant are sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.0001, and the exercise price of each pre-funded warrant will be $0.0001 per share. The pre-funded warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. This offering also relates to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any pre-funded warrants sold in this offering. Each share of Common Stock and pre-funded warrant is being sold together with a warrant to purchase one share of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $[*] per share (representing 100% of the price at which a share of Common Stock and accompanying warrant are sold to the public in this offering).

 

The warrants will be exercisable immediately and will expire five years from the date of issuance. For each pre-funded warrant we sell, the number of shares of Common Stock we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. Because we will issue a warrant for each share of our Common Stock and for each pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of our Common Stock sold in this offering, the number of warrants sold in this offering will not change as a result of a change in the mix of the shares of our Common Stock and pre-funded warrants sold. The shares of Common Stock and pre-funded warrants, and the accompanying warrants, can only be purchased together in this offering but will be issued separately and will be immediately separable upon issuance.

 

This prospectus also relates to the resale of shares of our Common Stock and warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock of the Company pursuant to the securities purchase agreement (the “PIPE SPA”) executed on June 28, 2023. The securities offered hereunder include 95,745 warrant shares of our Common Stock exercisable at a price per share of $10.00, subject to adjustment as provided in the agreements governing the PIPE warrants (the “PIPE Warrants) for PIPE financing in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,595,744.70 and the purchase price of $1.5 million. Pursuant to the PIPE SPA, the Company issued and sold to each of Thomas Kosasa, Dr. Jeffrey Yu, Aaron Green and Steve Kester (the “PIPE Investors” or “selling security holders”), a new series of senior secured convertible notes (the “PIPE Notes”), which PIPE Notes are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the PIPE Investors election at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $10.00 per share, and (ii) 92.5% of the lowest volume weighted average trading price for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date, subject to a minimum of $2.50, which would convert to a maximum of 638,298 PIPE Notes shares of our Common Stock. The PIPE Investors’ $1.5 million investment in the Notes closed and funded contemporaneous to the Closing of the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Business Combination”).

 

At the Closing of the Business Combination and funding of the PIPE, the PIPE Investors each executed a PIPE Note and a PIPE Warrant in the amount corresponding to each PIPE Investor’s investment amount and in accordance with the terms set forth in the PIPE SPA as well as a registration rights agreement (the “PIPE Registration Rights Agreement”).

 

We are registering the offer and sale of these securities to satisfy certain registration rights we have granted. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the securities by the PIPE Investors as the “selling securityholders.” We received the proceeds from the issuance of the PIPE Notes and would receive proceeds from the Warrants exercised in the event that such Warrants are exercised for cash. We will pay the expenses associated with registering the sales by the selling securityholders, as described in more detail in the section titled “Use of Proceeds” appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

The selling securityholders may sell the securities described in this prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices. We provide more information about how the selling securityholders may sell their securities in the section titled “Plan of Distribution” appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

The selling securityholders may sell any, all or none of the securities and we do not know when or in what amount the selling securityholders may sell their securities hereunder following the effective date of this registration statement.

 

Of the 734,043 shares of Common Stock that may be offered or sold by selling securityholders identified in this prospectus, pursuant to the PIPE Notes and PIPE Warrants, 612,312 of those shares of Common Stock are subject to certain lock-up restrictions. The 612,312 shares of Common Stock, which are subject to certain lock-up restrictions, include 79,788 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the PIPE Warrants and 532,524 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the PIPE Notes.

 

Our Common Stock and warrants are listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols, “ONMD” and “ONMDW.” As of December 12, 2023, we had approximately 23,572,232 shares of Common Stock and 12,181,019 warrants outstanding. On December 14, 2023, the last reported closing price of our of Common Stock and warrants as reported on Nasdaq was $[0.9521] per share and $[0.0106] per warrant.

 

The public offering price per share of Common Stock and accompanying warrant and any pre-funded warrant and accompanying warrant, as the case may be, will be determined by us at the time of pricing, may be at a discount to the current market price, and the recent market price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the final offering price.

 

We are an “emerging growth company” as that term is used in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 31 of this prospectus for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in our securities.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, also registers for sale warrants to purchase [*] shares of Common Stock to be issued to the representatives of the underwriter in connection with this offering. We have agreed to issue the warrants to the representatives of the underwriter as a portion of the underwriting compensation payable to the underwriters in connection with this offering. See “Underwriting” for a description of compensation payable to the underwriters.
(2) The public offering corresponds to a public offering price per share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) of $[_], and a public offering price per accompanying warrant of $0.0001.

 

We anticipate that delivery of the securities against payment will be made on or about ______, 2023.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

 

Except where the context otherwise requires or where otherwise indicated, the terms “OneMedNet,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “our company,” and “our business” refer to OneMedNet Corporation and, where appropriate, its consolidated subsidiaries.

 

We incorporate by reference important information into this prospectus. You may obtain the information incorporated by reference without charge by following the instructions under “Where You Can Find More Information.” You should carefully read this prospectus as well as additional information described under “Information Incorporated by Reference,” before deciding to invest in our securities.

 

Neither we nor the underwriters have authorized anyone to provide you with additional information or information different from that contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. The underwriters are offering to sell, and seeking offers to buy, our securities only in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted. The information contained in this prospectus, or any document incorporated by reference in this prospectus, is accurate only as of the date of those respective documents, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any sale of our securities. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since that date.

 

The information incorporated by reference or provided in this prospectus contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other data about our industry. We obtained the industry and market data in this prospectus from our own research as well as from industry and general publications, surveys and studies conducted by third parties. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations and contains projections and estimates of the future performance of the industries in which we operate that are subject to a high degree of uncertainty, including those discussed in “Risk Factors.” We caution you not to give undue weight to such projections, assumptions, and estimates. Further, industry and general publications, studies and surveys generally state that they have been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. While we believe that these publications, studies, and surveys are reliable, we have not independently verified the data contained in them. In addition, while we believe that the results and estimates from our internal research are reliable, such results and estimates have not been verified by any independent source.

 

For investors outside the United States (“U.S.”): We and the underwriters have not done anything that would permit this offering or the possession or distribution of this prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for those purposes is required, other than in the U.S. Persons outside the U.S. who come into possession of this prospectus must inform themselves about, and observe any restrictions relating to, the offering of the securities and the distribution of this prospectus outside of the U.S.

 

MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

 

Unless otherwise indicated, information contained in this prospectus concerning our industry and the regions in which we operate, including our general expectations and market position, market opportunity, market share and other management estimates, is based on information obtained from various independent publicly available sources and other industry publications, surveys and forecasts. While we believe that the market data, industry forecasts and similar information included in this prospectus are generally reliable, such information is inherently imprecise. In addition, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and growth objectives and the future performance of our industry and the markets in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those discussed under the headings “Risk Factors,” “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this prospectus.

 

Information contained in this prospectus concerning our industry, market and competitive position data in this prospectus from our own internal estimates and research as well as from publicly available information, industry and general publications and research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties.

 

1
 

 

Industry publications and forecasts generally state that the information they contain has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but such information is inherently imprecise. Forecasts and other forward-looking information obtained from these sources are subject to the same qualifications and uncertainties as the other forward-looking statements in this prospectus. These forecasts and forward-looking information are subject to uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described under “Risk Factors.” These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in any forecasts or estimates.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this prospectus are forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this prospectus are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “depends,” “estimate,” “expects,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” or the negative of those terms or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain those words. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, strategy, short- and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning the following:

 

  our projected financial position and estimated cash burn rate;
     
  our estimates regarding expenses, future revenues and capital requirements;
     
  our ability to continue as a going concern;
     
  our need to raise substantial additional capital to fund our operations;
     
  our ability to compete in the global space industry;
     
  our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our current products and services;
     
  our ability to protect our intellectual property rights and the potential for us to incur substantial costs from lawsuits to enforce or protect our intellectual property rights;
     
  the possibility that a third party may claim we have infringed, misappropriated or otherwise violated their intellectual property rights and that we may incur substantial costs and be required to devote substantial time defending against these claims;
     
  our reliance on third-party suppliers and manufacturers;
     
  the success of competing products or services that are or become available;
     
  our ability to expand our organization to accommodate potential growth and our ability to retain and attract key personnel; and
     
  the potential for us to incur substantial costs resulting from lawsuits against us and the potential for these lawsuits to cause us to limit our commercialization of our products and services.

 

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in “Risk Factors.” Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this prospectus may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

 

2
 

 

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Moreover, except as required by law, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this prospectus to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

 

You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed with the SEC as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect. As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, our actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements including those described in the “Risk Factors” section beginning on page 31 and elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

TRADEMARKS AND COPYRIGHTS

 

We own or have rights to trademarks or trade names that we use in connection with the operation of our business, including our corporate names, logos and website names. In addition, we own or have the rights to copyrights, trade secrets and other proprietary rights that protect the content of our products and the formulations for such products. This prospectus may also contain trademarks, service marks and trade names of other companies, which are the property of their respective owners. Our use or display of third parties’ trademarks, service marks, trade names or products in this prospectus is not intended to, and should not be read to, imply a relationship with or endorsement or sponsorship of us. Solely for convenience, some of the copyrights, trade names and trademarks referred to in this prospectus are listed without their ©, ® and ™ symbols, but we will assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, our rights to our copyrights, trade names and trademarks. All other trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

 

IMPLICATIONS OF BEING AN EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY AND

A SMALLER REPORTING COMPANY

 

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted, and currently intend, to rely on the following provisions of the JOBS Act that contain exceptions from disclosure and other requirements that otherwise are applicable to public companies and file periodic reports with the SEC. These provisions include, but are not limited to:

 

  being permitted to present only two years of audited financial statements and selected financial data and only two years of related “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our periodic reports and registration statements, including this prospectus, subject to certain exceptions;
     
  not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (“SOX”);
     
  reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements, and registration statements, including in this prospectus;
     
  not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements; and
     
  exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of:

 

  December 31, 2028 (the last day of the fiscal year that follows the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering);

 

  the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion;
     
  the date on which we are deemed to be a “large-accelerated filer,” as defined in the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); and
     
  the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

 

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in this prospectus and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in our future filings with the SEC. As a result, the information that we provide to holders of our Common Stock may be different than what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests. We have elected to avail ourselves of the provision of the JOBS Act that permits emerging growth companies to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. As a result, we will not be subject to new or revised accounting standards at the same time as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

 

We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the Exchange Act. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an emerging growth company. We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies until the fiscal year following the determination that our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is $250 million or more measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter, or our annual revenues are less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is $700 million or more measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter.

This summary does not contain all of the information that you should consider before making your investment decision.

It does not contain all the information that may be important to you and your investment decision. You should carefully read this entire prospectus, including the matters set forth under “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from future results contemplated in the forward-looking statements as a result of factors such as those set forth in “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

In this prospectus, unless the context indicates otherwise, “OneMedNet,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” or “us” refer to OneMedNet Corporation a Delaware corporation, and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, OneMedNet Solutions Corporation, a Delaware corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, OneMedNet Technologies (Canada) Inc., incorporated on October 16, 2015 under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia whose functional currency is the Canadian dollar.

 

We have not authorized anyone to provide you with different information and you must not rely on any unauthorized information or representation. We are not making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where an offer or sale is not permitted. This document may only be used where it is legal to sell these securities. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus is accurate only as of the date on the front of this prospectus, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus, or any sale of our Common Stock.

The Company

 

OneMedNet Corporation a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “OneMedNet”) together with its wholly-owned subsidiary OneMedNet Solutions Corporation, a Delaware corporation, founded in 2009 and incorporated in November 20, 2015, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, OneMedNet Technologies (Canada) Inc., incorporated on October 16, 2015 under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia whose functional currency is the Canadian dollar. All refences in this prospectus to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “OneMedNet” include OneMedNet Solutions Corporation.

 

Corporate History

 

We were originally incorporated in Delaware on February 8, 2021 under the name “Data Knights Acquisition Corp” as a special purpose acquisition company, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

 

On May 11, 2021, we consummated an initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on May 6, 2021. The Company’s Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Common Stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generated gross proceeds of $100,000,000. The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Units at the Initial Public Offering price to cover over-allotments, which the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full, and the closing of the issuance and sale of the additional Units occurred (the “Over-allotment Option Units”). The total aggregate issuance by the Company of 1,500,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit resulted in total gross proceeds of $15,000,000. Simultaneously with the consummation of the closing of the Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 585,275 units (the “Placement Units”) to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Placement Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $5,852,750 (the “Private Placement”).

 

4
 

 

The Placement Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering. A total of $117,300,000, comprised of the proceeds from the Offering and the proceeds of private placements that closed on May 11, 2021, net of the underwriting commissions, discounts, and offering expenses, was deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders. On June 22, 2021, the Common Stock and Public Warrant included in the Units began separate trading.

 

No payments for our expenses were made in the offering described above directly or indirectly to (i) any of our directors, officers or their associates, (ii) any person(s) owning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities or (iii) any of our affiliates, except in connection with the repayment of outstanding loans and pursuant to the administrative support agreement disclosed herein which we entered into with our sponsor.

 

On April 25, 2022, the Company, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”), entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with OneMedNet Corporation, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Target,” which has since been renamed “OneMedNet Solutions Corporation”), and together with the Company and Merger Sub, the “Parties”) and Paul Casey, as seller representative (“Casey”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated in the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Business Combination”), the Parties would consummate the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Target, with the Target continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”), which would result in all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Target being exchanged for shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Merger and Merger Agreement and the related transactions were approved unanimously by the boards of directors of each of the Company and the Target.

 

On December 31, 2022, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in mutual funds.

 

On June 28, 2023, the Company executed a Securities Purchase Agreement for PIPE financing in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,595,744.70 and a purchase price of $1.5 million. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue and sell to each of Thomas Kosasa, Dr. Jeffrey Yu, Aaron Green and Steve Kester (the “PIPE Investors”), a new series of senior secured convertible notes (the “PIPE Notes”), which Notes shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at the PIPE Investors election at the conversion price (rounded to the nearest 1/100th of one cent) which shall be computed as the lesser of:

 

(a) with respect to a conversion pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Securities Purchase Agreement (discussed below), the lesser of: (i) a price per share equal to the product of (x) 100% less the Discount and (y) the lowest per share purchase price of the Equity Securities issued in the Next Equity Financing; and (ii) $2.50 per share; and

 

(b) with respect to a conversion pursuant to Section 4.2 (discussed below), (relating to payment at maturity) or Section 4.3, $2.50 per share. The Securities Purchase agreement provided that the PIPE Investors’ $1.5 million investment in the PIPE Notes would close and fund contemporaneous to the Closing of the Business Combination.

 

Section 4.1 of the Securities Purchase Agreement provides that the principal balance and unpaid accrued interest on each Note will automatically convert into the PIPE Conversion Shares upon the closing of the Next Equity Financing (“Next Equity Financing” means the next sale or series of related sales by the Company of its Common Stock in one or more offerings relying on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D thereunder for exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, from which the Company receives gross proceeds of not less than US$5,000,000 (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes).

 

Section 4.2 of the Securities Purchase Agreement provides that in the event of a Corporate Transaction or the repayment of such Note, at the closing of a corporate transaction, the holder of each Note may elect that either: (a) the Company will pay the holder of such Note an amount equal to the sum of (x) the outstanding principal balance of such Note, and (y) a premium equal to 20% of the outstanding principal balance of such Note (which premium, is in lieu of all accrued and unpaid interest due on such Note); or (b) such Note will convert into that number of Conversion Shares equal to the quotient (rounded down to the nearest whole share) obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued interest of such Note on a date that is no more than five days prior to the closing of such corporate transaction by (y) the applicable Conversion Price.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any sale (or series of related sales) of the Company’s Equity Securities to a special purpose acquisition company will not be deemed a “Next Equity Financing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, at its option, pay any unpaid accrued interest on each Note in cash at the time of conversion. The number of PIPE Conversion Shares the Company issues upon such conversion will equal the quotient (rounded down to the nearest whole share) obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued interest under each converting Note on a date that is no more than five days prior to the closing of the Next Equity Financing by (y) the applicable Conversion Price. At least five days prior to the closing of the Next Equity Financing, the Company will notify the holder of each Note in writing of the terms of the Equity Securities that are expected to be issued in such financing. The issuance of PIPE Conversion Shares pursuant to the conversion of each Note will be on, and subject to, the same terms and conditions applicable to the Equity Securities issued in the Next Equity Financing.

 

Also on June 28, 2023, EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC (“EF Hutton”) waived $3,025,000 of the $4,025,000 cash deferred underwriting commission do to it at the Closing of the Business Combination, pursuant to a Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement. In accordance with the Satisfaction and Discharge Agreement, EF Hutton accepted, in lieu of the cash deferred underwriting commission due at closing (i) a one-time cash payment of $500,000 at the time of the Closing; (ii) a $500,000 promissory note executed by the Company on June 30, 2023 in which it is obligated to make six monthly payments to EF Hutton in the cash amount of $83,333.33 commencing after the Closing; and (iii) 277,778 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at $10.89 per share, for an aggregate value of $3,025,000.

 

On September 21, 2023, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) declared effective the Company’s registration statement and proxy statement/prospectus on Form S-4 (the “Definitive Proxy”).

 

As of the close of business on September 20, 2023 (the “Record Date”), 5,172,973 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) were issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. On October 17, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Stockholders”) in lieu of its 2023 annual meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. At the Special Meeting, the Stockholders were asked to consider and vote on the proposals identified in the Definitive Proxy; 4,690,565 shares of Common Stock were represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting, and, therefore, a quorum was present and all proposal were approved.

 

On November 7, 2023, we held the Closing of the previously announced Merger whereby Merger Sub merged with and into OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation), with OneMedNet Solutions Corporation continuing as the surviving entity, which resulted in all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of OneMedNet Solutions Corporation being exchanged for shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Merger and other transactions that closed on November 7, 2023, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, led to Data Knights changing its name to “OneMedNet Corporation” and the business of the Company became the business of OneMedNet Solutions Corporation.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the total consideration for the Business Combination and related transactions (the “Merger Consideration”) was approximately $200 million. In connection with the Special Meeting, certain public holders (the “Redeeming Stockholders”) holding 1,600,741 shares of Common Stock exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (“Continental”) in the trust account established in connection with Data Knights’ initial public offering (the “Trust Account”).

 

Effective November 7, 2023, Data Knights’ units ceased trading, and effective November 8, 2023, OneMedNet’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ONMD” and the warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ONMDW.”

 

As a result of the Merger and the Business Combination, holders of Data Knights common stock automatically received common stock of OneMedNet, and holders of Data Knights warrants automatically received warrants of OneMedNet with substantively identical terms. At the Closing of the Business Combination, all shares of Data Knights owned by the Sponsor (consisting of shares of Common Stock and shares of Class B common stock, which we refer to as the founder shares), automatically converted into an equal number of shares of OneMedNet’s Common Stock, and the Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor, automatically converted into warrants to purchase one share of OneMedNet Common Stock with substantively identical terms.

Our Business

 

OneMedNet is a global provider of clinical imaging innovation and curator of regulatory-grade Imaging Real-World Data3 or iRWDTM. OneMedNet’s innovative solutions connect healthcare providers and patients satisfying a crucial need within the Life Sciences field offering direct access to clinical images and the associated contextual patient record. OneMedNet’s innovative technology proved the commercial and regulatory viability of imaging Real-World Data, an emerging market, and provides regulatory-grade image-centric iRWDTM that exactly matches OMN’s Life Science partners Case Selection Protocols and paves the way for Real World Evidence.

 

OneMedNet was founded to solve a deficiency in how clinical images were shared between healthcare providers. This resulted in OMN’s initial product BEAMTM image exchange that enabled the successful sharing of images for more than a decade with OMN’s largest customer being the Country of Ireland.

OneMedNet continued to innovate by responding to the demand for and utilization of Real-World Data and Real-World Evidence, specifically data that focused on clinical images with its associated contextual clinical record. We were able to leverage internal technological competencies along with OneMedNet’s formidable healthcare provider installed base from its first product with BEAMTM to become the first RWD solution for Life Science companies with its launch of iRWDTM in 2019.

 

OneMedNet provides innovative solutions that unlock the significant value contained within clinical image archives. With a growing federated network of 95+ healthcare facilities, OneMedNet has the immediate ability to quickly search and extensively curate multi-layer data from a Federated group of healthcare facilities. The term “healthcare facilities” refers specifically to the hospitals, integrated delivery networks (“IDNs”) and imaging centers that provide imaging to OneMedNet, which represent the core source of our data. At present, OneMedNet works with more than 95 facilities who provide regulatory grade imaging to us. OneMedNet has access to these more than 95 facilities because these 95+ contracted facilities have more than 200 locations among them including offices and clinics, which in total generates regulatory grade imaging from more than 200 customers. Among these customers, all are data providers and some are data purchasers.

 

OneMedNet is ahead of the curve when it comes to providing fast and secure access to curated medical images. Initially, it was all about solving the diverse access needs of patient care providers. This focus systematically evolved to addressing the rapidly growing needs of image analysis and researchers, clinicians, regulators, scientists and more.

 

 

Real-world data is any data that is collected in the context of the routine delivery of care, in contrast to data collected within a clinical trial where study design controls variability in ways that are not representative of real-world care and outcomes.

 

A key component driving its mission is that OneMedNet believes we have a unique opportunity to affect a material positive impact on the lives of tens of millions of people while improving our customers’ business productivity. First and foremost, OneMedNet’s iRWDTM offering plays a significant role in enabling Life Science companies to bring safer and more effective patient care to market sooner. Using our highly curated de-identified clinical data in our iRWDTM offering in Life Science product development, validation, and regulatory approval processes, they contribute to patient care advancements in more meaningful ways. Moreover, Life Sciences improve their product development and validation processes, which benefits all parties.

 

Significant documentation exists that shows that Real-World Data can provide expanded insights across broader and more representative patient populations.1 For this reason, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has instituted Real-World Data guidelines for regulatory approvals. Utilization of highly reliable and quality Real-World Data that strictly adheres to all of the very specific data stratification requirements can supplement or supplant clinical trials.

 

OneMedNet covers the complete value chain in imaging Real-World Data; it begins with our 10+ year federated network of providers and is supported by a multi-faceted data curation process managed by an expert in-house clinical team. Additionally, we work hand-in-hand with our Life Science partners regarding the Case Selection Protocol and when required producing Case Report Forms for regulatory clearance. We are focused on delivering value by supporting Life Science Advancements with OneMedNet’s iRWDTM which holds the key to unlocking boundless patient care advances. We unleash the power of research-grade image-centric iRWDTM that is highly curated to painstakingly meet every cohort requirement and stand up to all of the rigors of prospective clinical trials.

 

Today, life science companies, including pharmaceutical companies, artificial intelligence (AI) developers, medical device businesses, and clinical research organizations share the same widespread challenge in obtaining insight-rich, high-quality patient data that explicitly matches their precise cohort specifications. A substantial portion of patient diagnosis involves clinical imaging and approximately 90% of healthcare data, by size, is associated with imaging. Historically, much of imaging value has been derived from its initial review and further gains from the image archives have been very limited.

We help providers to “Unlock the Value in Imaging Archives”.TM By utilizing OneMedNet’s iRWDTM offering, providers can greatly improve their research efforts with streamlined data access. Health care providers such as hospitals, clinics, and imaging centers can also accelerate life science patient care innovations by sharing de-identified data in a well-defined and de-identified and secure manner. In return for doing so, income is generated and applied to critical and possibly unfunded provider projects.

 

The OneMedNet Difference

 

OneMedNet has been a leader in the business of extracting, securing, and transferring medical data for 12+ years. Doing so requires specialized expertise in:

 

  Compliancy (HIPAA, GDPR, 21 Part11)
     
  Advanced privacy & security measures
     
  Clinical patient condition(s) and hospital processes
     
  Radiology interpretation
     
  AI/ML technology

 

Attaining in-house expertise in all essential elements is quite a challenge and deters many organizations from even attempting such a venture. We take pride in this ambitious achievement – while continually working to maintain state-of-the-art expertise. OneMedNet strictly adheres to the highest level of professional and ethical standards and applicable regulations throughout all interactions and activities.

 

We believe there is a reason OneMedNet is the leader in an uncrowded field of regulatory-grade imaging RWD curators. Doing so requires specialized expertise in AI/ML technology, data privacy/security, as well as expertise in clinical patient condition(s) and healthcare record keeping. Having, or achieving, expertise in all essential disciplines is a challenging achievement. OneMedNet had a significant head start with our clinical image exchange solution which served to launch the company nearly a decade ago. All data remains “native” within the federated OneMedNet iRWDTM provider network – meaning all the data remains locally onsite until specific de-identified data is licensed for a particular Life Science research opportunity.

Industry Background

 

A 2016 analysis published in the Journal of Health Economics and authored by the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development placed the cost of bringing a drug to market, including post-approval research and development, at a staggering $2.87 billion.2 Meanwhile, a 2018 study from the Tufts Center noted that the timeline for new drug development ranged from 12.8 years for the average drug to 17.2 years for ultra-orphan drugs that only affect several hundred patients.3 This places the onus on life science organizations to find ways to deliver treatments to patients faster — especially those who cannot wait 17 years for a potentially life-saving treatment. Knowing how a medicinal product is actually used by patients can help stakeholders across the healthcare ecosystem make important and potentially life-saving real-time decisions.

 

Real-World Data is observational data typically gathered when an approved medical product is on the market and used by “real” patients in real life, as opposed to clinical trials or real world images for real patients. The FDA cites several potential sources of Real-World Data, including electronic health records (“EHRs”), claims, disease and product registries, there are multiple types of data including structured and unstructured data, clinical and billing data, transactional and claims data, patient-generated data, and data gathered from additional sources that can shed light on a patient’s health status and more. As reliance on healthcare data grows exponentially, OneMedNet has observed that the reliance on information has increased coming from multiple additional sources including EHRs, claims, registries, clinical trials, patient and provider surveys, wearable devices and more. These additional sources include the internet of things (“IoT”), social media forums and blogs. Real-World Data has the potential to break down inefficiencies and fill gaps in information silos among stakeholders throughout the healthcare ecosystem of providers, payers, manufacturers, government entities and patients. This information sharing, in turn, enables all parties to derive new insights, support value-based care and deliver better health outcomes.

 

Commercializing a drug requires its developer to harness various sources of Real-World Data to identify patient populations and refine sales and marketing strategies for those populations among many other undertakings. Historically, this practice involved purchasing large amounts of data from data aggregators or data platforms, if not directly from the source itself, sometimes without much knowledge about the quality of the data. Preparing this data for analysis is both expensive and time-consuming thus many organizations would outsource the process to consultants or third-party vendors; moreover, the process of preparing this data for analysis by untrained consultants can yield a static analysis that is difficult to modify or rerun in response to follow-up questions or potential discrepancies.

Definitions of Real-World Data and Real-World Evidence

 

Real-World Data has become a powerful tool in the life sciences industry. After decades of relying on clinical data as the gold standard for decision making, industry leaders now recognize how data collected in the real world adds valuable context and insight to their efforts. From identifying unmet medical needs and defining the patient journey, to supporting regulatory submissions, proving value to payers, and shaping market strategies, Real-World Data adds value at every stage of the drug development lifecycle. Real-World Data also sets the foundation for Real World Evidence, and while the terms are often used interchangeably, they are distinct and they are changing health care. Here’s how it happens:

 

1. First, Real-World Data are data relating to patient health status and/or the delivery of health care routinely collected from a variety of sources. Real-World Data is aggregated and transformed such as through OneMedNet’s robust analytics. Real-World Data are the data relating to patient health status and/or the delivery of health care routinely collected from a variety of sources. There are many different types, sources and uses of Real-World Data, for example:

 

  Clinical Data For example, clinical data from EHRs and case report forms (“eCRF”) including biopsies and other pathology tests, diagnostic imaging, social determinants of health, cancer organoids, that provide patient demographics, family history, comorbidities, procedure and treatment history, and outcomes.
     
  Patient Generated Data — For example, patient-generated data from patient-reported outcome surveys, which data provide insights directly from the patient, and they help researchers understand what happens outside of clinic visits, procedures, and hospital stays.
     
  Cost and Utilization Data (Qualitative Studies) — For example, cost and utilization data from claims and public datasets, which data provides information regarding healthcare services utilization, population coverage, and prescribing patterns.
     
  Public Health Data For example, public health data from various government data sources. These add critical information to enable stakeholders to best serve the needs of the populations they serve.

 

The availability of medical imaging in Real-World Data such as that provided by OneMedNet is facilitated by the development of digital image analysis to increase the accuracy of diagnostics and conduct passive screening on large databases of medical images using artificial-intelligence (“AI”) algorithms such as those applied by OneMedNet. Algorithms can also help identify additional diagnostic tests of value from medical images with pathology.

 

Real-World Evidence is the clinical evidence regarding the usage and potential benefits or risks of a medical product derived from analysis of Real-World Data, as defined by the Food and Drug Administration. Real-World Evidence can be generated by different study designs or analyses, including but not limited to, randomized trials, including large simple trials, pragmatic trials, and observational studies (prospective and/or retrospective). The difference in Real World Evidence and Real World Data focuses on the end use case. Real World Data can take the form of claims, electronic health records, labs, data etc. Often this insight is used to better understand a patient’s journey or a natural history of a disorder (how does a disease progress if left untreated.)

Real World Evidence in contrast builds upon many of these data sets and prepares them for submission, as part of regulatory review such as to the Food and Drug Administration or the European Medicines Agency, for example, in support of a customer’s clinical trial application. When data and in particular imaging data is submitted to the FDA the agency requires the following:

 

  Guard against biased — evidence must align with the patient population being study — expectations focus on the similar patient demographics, comorbidities, disease severity, etc.;
     
  Traceability — confirm the chain of custody, the source of the data is known and can be validated if required; and
     
  Go forward basis — regulatory agencies seek evidence that aligns with the trials timeframe and when possible collect evidence that mirrors the clinical trials timeline.

 

One area where Real World Evidence has been relief on heavily relates to oncology approvals. Food and Drug Administration’s Oncology Center of Excellence actually presented an analysis of this at American Society of Clinical Oncology in 2021, looking at oncology applications containing Real-World Data and Real-World Evidence. That analysis looked at 94 applications that were submitted from 2011-2020, and showed that inclusion of Real-World Data to support regulatory decision-making has increased dramatically over that period. In 2020 alone, there were 28 submissions for oncology products that contained Real-World Data. Outside of the oncology context, probably the most notable recent example of an approval relying on Real World Evidence is the July 2021 approval of a new indication for Astellas’ drug Prograf (or tacrolimus) for the prevention of organ rejection in lung transplant patients. The approval there was based on a non-interventional study providing Real-World Evidence of effectiveness.4 FDA’s press release announcing the approval noted that the approval was “significant because it reflects how a well-designed, non-interventional study relying on fit-for-purpose real-world data, when compared to a suitable control, can be considered adequate and well-controlled under FDA regulations.”

An additional recent approval of note was the December 2021 approval of the supplemental BLA for Orencia to prevent graft versus host disease.5 The application included data from a randomized clinical trial, with additional evidence of effectiveness provided by a registry-based clinical study that was conducted using real-world data from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research.6 And that registry study analyzed outcomes of 54 patients treated with Orencia for the prevention of graft versus host disease, in combination with standard immunosuppressive drugs, versus 162 patients treated with the standard immunosuppressive drugs alone, and showed efficacy in that indication.

 

AI is employed in Real-World Data to enhance data anomaly detection, standardization, and quality checking at the pre-processing stage. AI is expected to offer pharma and biotech companies the ability to increase meaningful Real World Evidence output, decrease time to insights, and make the most of the available vast data sources. A Real World Evidence technology platform that delivers smart data processing, analysis, and outcomes offers an unparalleled opportunity to capitalize on these computing advancements.

 

When used as part of an overall comprehensive Real World Evidence strategy, AI innovations can enhance drug development, improve patient treatment and access, and drive valuable new business opportunities.

 

In post-marketing studies, adverse events reporting is an area where AI is used, creating greater automation and efficiency in historical data sets. Techniques like natural language processing (“NLP”) enable AI to scan tens of thousands of records and quickly find adverse event details. AI integrated analytics and automation provide access to crucial insights from historical clinical trial Real-World Data and Real World Evidence, expanding end-to-end clinical trial capabilities:

 

  Data ingestion — publicly/historical available Real-World Data
     
  Text extraction — NLP used to extract key entities from clinical trial documents
     
  Data transformation & standardization — data standardization using pre-built models
     
  AI model deployment — predicting trial design impacts on costs, feasibility, cycle times, and quality risk

 

AI is driving ground-breaking leaps in protein structure identification, and advances in regulations are providing healthcare research organizations with access to real-world data to accelerate clinical trial processes. We believe that AI-enabled technologies have unparalleled potential to offer innovative trial design and collection, organizing, and analyzing the increasing amount of data generated by clinical trials. AI has many applications in clinical trials, both short and long-term. AI technologies make possible innovations crucial for transforming clinical trials, such as seamlessly combining Phases I and II, developing novel patient-centered endpoints, and collecting and analyzing Real-World Data.

 

OneMedNet believes that AI tools also have wider benefits for hospitals and health systems. Professor Alexander Wong, University of Waterloo Canada Research Chair in AI and Medical Imaging, points out that AI benefits include the potential to ease the burden on radiology departments in terms of assessing scans and predicting upcoming demand for general hospital and intensive care beds, and demand for equipment such as respirators and ventilators, medicines, masks, and ventilator mouthpieces, as well as aiding workforce planning.7

 

Across a diverse set of imaging modalities, digital images typically include metadata and/or annotations that may include protected health information (e.g., patient name, date of birth). Although diagnostic images generally do not warrant the same level of privacy concerns as genomic data, researchers must also remove facial characteristics or other features that could identify a patient.

 

Digital image analysis can be used to support research and development by analyzing large volumes of tissue specimens or other medical images to run molecular screens that model biomarkers and treatment responses by transplanting a portion of a patient’s tumor into humanized mice or 3D tissue cultures derived from stem cells that resemble miniature organs. These models allow researchers to conduct controlled laboratory experiments that can inform treatment approaches and link predicted treatment response to actual clinical outcomes by linking this data to EHR, claims, and other sources of Real-World Data. Similarly, preclinical studies can be informed by safety assessments conducted in animal models or studies of animal molecular biomarkers or anatomic abnormalities to minimize the burden on human study participants. Findings can also inform clinical trial optimization by stratifying participants according to predicted response and determining appropriate eligibility criteria.

2. Second, Real-World Evidence is the clinical evidence about the usage and potential benefits or risks of a medical product derived from analysis of Real-World Data. Real World Evidence provides clinically-rich insights into what actually happens in everyday practice and why. The FD&C Act defines Real-World Evidence as “data regarding the usage, or the potential benefits or risks, of a drug derived from sources other than traditional clinical trials.8 In developing its Real-World Evidence program, FDA believes it is helpful to distinguish between the sources of Real-World Data and the evidence derived from that data.

 

Evaluating Real-World Evidence in the context of regulatory decision-making depends not only on the evaluation of the methodologies used to generate the evidence but also on the reliability and relevance of the underlying Real-World Data; these constructs may raise different types of considerations. Real-World Evidence refers to evidence about the risks and benefits of a product derived from analysis of the Real-World Data. For example, the FDA has used Real-World Data and Real-World Evidence, derived from its Sentinel system for monitoring the safety of regulated products, in place of post-marketing studies. It has carried this out for nine potential safety issues involving five products.

 

Real-World Evidence is the clinical evidence regarding the usage and potential benefits or risks of a medical product derived from analysis of Real-World Data. Real World Evidence can be generated by different study designs or analysis, including but not limited to, randomized trials, including large simple trials, pragmatic trials, and observational studies (prospective and/or retrospective).

 

Unlike traditional clinical trials, where necessary data elements can be curated and collection mandated, the creation of Real World Evidence requires assessing, validating and aggregating various, often disparate, sources of data available through routine clinical practice. Real-world evidence is used by different stakeholders in many different ways.

 

It gives life sciences companies insight into how their drugs are being used.
It helps providers improve the delivery of care.
It enables regulatory authorities to monitor post-market safety and adverse events.
It helps payers assess outcomes from treatments.

 

From Real-World Data to Real World Evidence

 

The creation of Real World Evidence requires a combination of high-powered analytics, a validated approach and a robust knowledge of available Real-World Data sources (e.g., what data is captured within existing quality registries, what data can be captured through electronic health records and case report forms or claims, which patient organizations capture data on relevant patient cohorts). This process includes several steps, which are summarized here:

 

  1. Defining a study protocol answering relevant clinical questions.
     
  2. Defining which data elements can be collected from which Real-World Data sources.
     
  3. Establishing data capture arrangements and protocols with existing Real-World Data sources.
     
  4. Blending disparate data sources through probabilistic record matching algorithms.
     
  5. Validating and supplementing blended data through editable eCRFs.
     
  6. Defining and calculating clinically relevant outcomes and measures.
     
  7. Appropriately assessing and controlling for variability in data quality, availability and confounding patient factors affecting measured outcomes.
     
  8. Real World Evidence can provide a holistic view of patients that in many cases cannot be studied through traditional clinical trials.

Real World Evidence has been proven to fill a gap between research (what we learn) and everyday practice (what we do) in healthcare, and it creates a difference between what is expected to happen and what really happens. Driving measurable improvements in healthcare requires us all to be rooted in the reality of what actually happens before, during, and after clinical procedures, interventions, and office visits. Real World Evidence fill those gaps and documents the truth by establishing definitively what really happens when doctors treat a wide range of patients that do not look like the homogeneous patient groups in a clinical trial. Because of this, Real World Evidence serves many uses and provides many benefits across the healthcare ecosystem.

 

As more countries battle to contain healthcare costs, and as the population ages and the number of patients with chronic diseases increases, the need to remove inefficiencies and upgrade the delivery of coordinated care that improves outcomes is more pressing. At the same time, life sciences companies are facing tumultuous times. Industry globalization, the end of the blockbuster era, and an increasingly complex regulatory environment all add to the difficulty of bringing products to market. And across the board, companies are moving toward a patient-centric and outcome-focused model. In this environment, Real World Evidence can be transformative for the industry when Real-World Data is combined with the right technology framework and the regulatory intelligence to make sense of it. As data is consumed across life sciences in different ways and by different stakeholders, it can provide valuable insights and “evidence” across the product life cycle. In addition, stakeholders across the healthcare ecosystem use this new knowledge to support decision-making and improve safety and effectiveness, and ultimately, patient outcomes.

 

Uses of Real World Evidence in Life Sciences, Among Regulators, Clinicians, Researchers and Healthcare Systems

 

According to repeated studies by Deloitte,9 the importance of Real World Evidence continues to rise as it promises to accelerate regulatory decision-making and support the approval of new indications for drugs already on the market. Life Sciences, pharmaceutical and medical device companies are significant consumers of Real World Evidence because it can provide value across the entire product lifecycle from pre-trial design to clinical studies and trials to post-market surveillance. Medical product developers are using Real World Evidence to support clinical trial designs (e.g., large simple trials, pragmatic clinical trials) and observational studies to generate innovative, new treatment approaches.

 

Real World Evidence can be used to make clinical trials more effective and efficient, for example in patient recruitment or label extension, Real World Evidence gathered from other studies or from currently marketed products in a similar category, for example, can have a positive effect on the product portfolio by exposing positive side effects as new potential indications. The most famous example is Viagra, which was initially studied as a drug to lower blood pressure, but an unexpected side effect led to the drug ultimately being approved for erectile dysfunction.

 

The benefits of Real World Evidence derived from Real-World Data are increasingly being recognized by regulatory authorities. The FDA released a framework for using Real World Evidence to support the process of drug regulation and submission. This is a major step toward recognizing that clinical trials, while still relevant, are not the only way to assess the efficacy and safety of a product. Indeed, the FDA is soon expected to conduct its first full post-market safety approval using only Real World Evidence.

 

Real World Evidence is now accepted as a reliable source of information for regulatory decision making in certain circumstances. A primary rationale for the FDA to use Real World Evidence E is to help support the approval of a new or extended use for a drug approved under the FD&C Act and to help support or satisfy post-approval study requirements always with the condition that the data quality is up to the standard required. In a recent statement, the FDA even noted how new tools for capturing data in the post-market period, including more sophisticated use of Real-World Data and Real-World Evidence are providing new approaches to address important questions about the safety and benefits of new drugs in real world settings and that these approaches have the potential to do to so more rapidly and with greater efficiency than traditional methods.10

Why Do We Need Real-World Evidence?

 

There’s a gap between research (what we learn) and everyday practice (what we do) in healthcare, and it creates a difference between what is expected to happen and what really happens. But it’s what really happens that matters. Driving measurable improvements in healthcare requires us all to be rooted in the reality of what actually happens before, during, and after clinical procedures, interventions, and office visits. Real-World Evidence is here to fill those gaps and root us in truth. It tells us what really happens when doctors treat a wide range of patients that don’t look like the homogeneous patient groups in a clinical trial. Because of this, Real-World Evidence serves many uses and provides many benefits across the healthcare ecosystem.

 

Uses of Real-World Evidence in Pharmaceutical and Device Companies

 

Pharmaceutical and medical device companies are major consumers of Real-World Evidence, as it can provide value across the entire product lifecycle. Real-World Evidence plays an important role for research across the product lifecycle for both pharmaceutical and device companies. It can inform pre-trial study design by helping researchers identify potential patients and create proper inclusion criteria for clinical trials. Much of medical innovation is driven by traditional clinical trials, where new pharmaceuticals and devices are rigorously studied and tracked before they can be sold and widely distributed.

 

Although clinical trials are incredibly important to determine the safety and efficacy of new technologies, when compared to real-world evidence they do have some limitations. For example, traditional clinical trials can have strict inclusion criteria that makes it challenging for providers to accurately extrapolate the results of a clinical trial to a broader population. Clinical trial participation is often limited by who the study administrators are able to recruit, and various demographics are often not able to participate. This again challenges the generalizability of clinical trial results across patient populations. Real-world evidence can help overcome the limitations of clinical trials by providing information about a broader cross-section of society. This can help clinicians, researchers, and industry partners better understand their products and how they work.

 

Once a product is approved and marketed, Real-World Evidence assists pharmaceutical or medical device company understand their products’ relative safety, effectiveness, value, off-label use and more. This post-market surveillance, or post-marketing surveillance, is valuable to stakeholders across the healthcare industry.

The AI-enabled patient enrichment and recruitment process can improve suitable cohorts and increase clinical trial effectiveness, data management, analysis, and interpretation of multiple Real-World Data sources, including EHRs and medical imaging data. This presents a unique opportunity for NLP to perform the sophisticated analysis necessary to combine genomic data with electronic medical records (“EMRs”) and other patient data, present in various locations, owners, and formats — from handwritten paper copies to digital medical images — to surface biomarkers that lead to endpoints that can be more efficiently measured, and thereby identify and characterize appropriate patient subpopulations. AI-enabled systems can help to improve patient cohort composition and aid with patient recruitment.

 

AI technologies can help biopharma companies identify target locations, qualified investigators, and priority candidates and collect and collate evidence to satisfy regulators that the trial process complies with good clinical practice (“GMP”) requirements. One of the most important elements of a clinical trial is a selection of high-functioning investigator sites. Site qualities such as resource availability, administrative procedures, and experienced clinicians with in-depth knowledge and understanding of the disease can shape study timelines and data quality, accuracy, completeness, and consistency.

 

AI integrated clinical trial programs can help monitor and manage patients by automating real-world data capture, sharing data across systems, and digitalizing standard clinical assessments. AI technologies and wearable technologies can help enable continuous patient monitoring and generate real-time insights into the safety and effectiveness of treatment while predicting the possible risk of dropouts, thereby enhancing patient engagement and retention. To comply with trial adherence criteria, patients must keep detailed records of their medication intake and other data points related to their bodily functions, response to medication, and daily protocols. This can be an overwhelming and tedious task, leading to 40% of patients becoming non-adherent after 150 days into a clinical trial. Wearable devices/sensors and video monitoring are used to collect patient data automatically and continuously, thereby relieving the patient of this task. In combination with wearable technology, AI techniques offer new approaches to developing real-time, power-efficient, mobile, and personalized patient monitoring systems.

 

Among regulators, clinicians, academic researchers and healthcare systems, the reliance on curated Real World Evidence has grown significantly because of the value it can provide, which is unique relative to each parties’ objectives and mandates. It also helps that the FDA has also sharpened its focus on Real-World Data and Real World Evidence. For example, late last year, the FDA published proposed guidance related to data standards for product submissions with Real-World Data and also weighed in on the use of Real-World Data and Real World Evidence to support regulatory decision-making for drugs and biological products with specific advice for data from electronic health records and medical claims.11 In addition, the FDA uses Real-World Data and Real World Evidence to monitor post-market safety and adverse events and to make regulatory decisions. The health care community is using these data to support coverage decisions and to develop guidelines and decision support tools for use in clinical practice.

AI with deep-learning capability is also helpful in organizing and translating a vast amount of structured and unstructured data to RWE.12 The human mind can possibly manage 4-5 variables, therefore, AI-enabled data mapping and integration and their normalization into a common data model according to disease pathway and workflow will likely be useful for both quality management in clinical trials and generating meaningful insight for human disease by providing a broader perspective based on real-world data.13

We were originally incorporated in Delaware on February 8, 2021 under the name “Data Knights Acquisition Corp” as a special purpose acquisition company, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. On May 11, 2021, we consummated an initial public offering.

 

On November 7, 2023, following the approval at the special meeting of the shareholders of Data Knights Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation held on October 17, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”), Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Data Knights Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Data Knights”), consummated a merger (the “Merger”) with and into OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation), a Delaware corporation (“OneMedNet”) pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of April 25, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Data Knights, Merger Sub, OneMedNet, Data Knights, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor” or “Purchaser Representative”) in its capacity as the representative of the stockholders of Data Knights, and Paul Casey in his capacity as the representative of the stockholders of OneMedNet (“Seller Representative”). Accordingly, the Merger Agreement was adopted, and the Merger and other transactions contemplated thereby (collectively, the “Business Combination”) were approved and completed.

 

At the closing, on November 7, 2023, of the Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into OneMedNet with OneMedNet surviving the Merger, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Data Knights, and Data Knights changed its name to “OneMedNet Corporation.”

 

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Data Knights was treated as the acquired company and OneMedNet Corporation was treated as the acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes.

At the closing of the Merger, holders of Data Knights common stock automatically received common stock of OneMedNet, and holders of Data Knights warrants automatically received warrants of OneMedNet with substantively identical terms. At the Closing of the Business Combination, all shares of Data Knights owned by the Sponsor (consisting of shares of Class A common stock and shares of Class B common stock), which we refer to as the founder shares, automatically converted into an equal number of shares of OneMedNet’s common stock, and Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor, automatically converted into warrants to purchase one share of OneMedNet common stock with substantively identical terms.

 

On June 28, 2023, the Company and Data Knights entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “PIPE SPA”) with certain investors (collectively referred to herein as the “Purchasers”) for PIPE financing in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,595,744.70 and the purchase price of $1.5 million. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Data Knights will issue and sell to each of the Purchasers, a new series of senior secured convertible notes (the “PIPE Notes”), which are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the Purchasers election at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $10.00 per share, and (ii) 92.5% of the lowest volume weighted average trading price for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date. The Purchasers’ $1.5 million investment in the PIPE Notes closed and funded contemporaneous to the Closing of the Business Combination. Effective immediately prior to the Closing, Data Knights issued the PIPE Notes to the Purchasers pursuant to the private offering rules under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

As of the Closing, among other holders, public stockholders own 98,178 shares of OneMedNet common stock approximately representing 0.35% of the outstanding shares of OneMedNet common stock; the Sponsor and its affiliates own approximately 15.1% of the outstanding shares of OneMedNet common stock (inclusive of shares received upon conversion of the Sponsor’s loan); OneMedNet’s former security holders own approximately 61.992% of the outstanding shares of OneMedNet common stock from the conversion of their shares; PIPE investors own 0.46% of the outstanding shares of OneMedNet common stock and former convertible note holders own approximately 16.24% of the outstanding shares of OneMedNet common stock resulting from the issuance of 5,238,800 shares of Common Stock upon conversion of their notes.

 

In addition, at the closing of the Merger, the Company issued an aggregate of 277,778 shares of the Company’s Company Stock at $10.89 per share, for an aggregate value of $3,025,000 (the “Compensation Shares”) to EF Hutton, LLC, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC (“EF Hutton”) win partial satisfaction of fees due to them in connection with the Merger.

Stock Purchase Agreement

 

On June 28, 2023, the Company and Data Knights entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “PIPE SPA”) with certain investors (collectively referred to herein as the “Purchasers”) for PIPE financing in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,595,744.70 and the purchase price of $1.5 million. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Data Knights will issue and sell to each of the Purchasers, a new series of senior secured convertible notes (the “PIPE Notes”), which are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the Purchasers election at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $10.00 per share, and (ii) 92.5% of the lowest volume weighted average trading price for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date. The Purchasers’ $1.5 million investment in the PIPE Notes closed and funded contemporaneous to the Closing of the Business Combination. Effective immediately prior to the Closing, Data Knights issued the PIPE Notes to the Purchasers pursuant to the private offering rules under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

Government Regulation

 

Many aspects of our businesses are regulated by federal and state laws, rules and regulations. Accordingly, we maintain a robust compliance program aimed at ensuring we operate our business in compliance with all existing legal requirements material to the operation of our businesses. There are, however, occasionally uncertainties involving the application of various legal requirements, the violation of which could result in, among other things, fines or other sanctions. See “Risk Factors” for additional detail.

 

Regulation of Patient Information. Our information management services relate to the processing of information regarding patient diagnosis and treatment of disease and are, therefore, subject to substantial governmental regulation. In addition, the confidentiality of patient-specific information and the circumstances under which such patient-specific records may be released for inclusion in our databases or used in other aspects of our business is heavily regulated. Federal, state and foreign governments are contemplating or have proposed or adopted additional legislation governing the possession, use and dissemination of personal data, such as personal health information and personal financial data, as well as security breach notification rules for loss or theft of such data. Additional legislation or regulation of this type might, among other things, require us to implement additional security measures and processes or bring within the legislation or regulation deidentified health or other data, each of which may require substantial expenditures or limit our ability to offer some of our services.

 

25
 

 

In particular, personal health information is recognized as a special, sensitive category of personal information, subject to additional mandatory protections. Violations of data protection regulations are subject to administrative penalties, civil money penalties and criminal prosecution, including corporate fines and personal liability.

 

Data Privacy

 

Patient health information is among the most sensitive of personal information, and it is critically important that information about an individual’s healthcare is properly protected from inappropriate access, use and disclosure. Real world evidence — information that allows us to examine actual practices and outcomes — is essential to increase access to care, improve outcomes, and lower costs.

 

OneMedNet uses a wide variety of privacy-enhancing technologies and safeguards to protect individual privacy while generating and analyzing information on a scale that helps healthcare stakeholders identify disease patterns and correlate with the precise treatment path and therapy needed for better outcomes. We employ a wide variety of methods to manage privacy requirements, including:

 

  governance, frameworks, models and training to promote good decision making and accountability;
     
  a layered approach to privacy and security management to avoid a single point of failure;
     
  ongoing evaluation of privacy and security practices to promote continuous improvement;
     
  use of technical, administrative, physical and organizational safeguards and controls;
     
  collaboration with data suppliers and trusted third parties for our syndicated market research and analytics offerings to remove identifiable information or employ effective encryption or other techniques to render information non-identified before data is delivered to us; and
     
  work with leading researchers, policy makers, thought leaders and others in a variety of fields relevant to the application of effective privacy and security practices, including statistical, epidemiological and cryptographic sciences, legal, information security and compliance, and privacy.

 

We have relied on expertise in the industry with de-identifying data. Our capabilities allow us to render data non-identified while still maintaining data utility, thus protecting privacy while still advancing innovation. Not only do we make use of de-identification techniques with respect to the data we hold, but we also share our expertise in this area with policymakers, regulators and others to help them understand de-identification methodologies and practical considerations to avoid re-identification risk. We operate in more than 100 countries around the world, many of which have data protection and privacy laws and regulations based on similar core principles (e.g., openness, accountability, security safeguards, etc.). We apply those principles globally and augment our practices to address local laws, contractual obligations and other data privacy requirements.

 

Our Compliance team, led by our Chief Compliance Officer, is comprised of privacy professionals and privacy law experts who drive our strategy and develop and manage our policies and standards. The Compliance team provides subject matter expertise related to the proper management of all data types. In addition, our Compliance team liaises with our Legal, IT, Information Security and other teams so that privacy requirements are addressed in technology, contracting, offerings and other business activities.

 

The OneMedNet Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) is our foundational privacy policy. It explains how, when applicable, we collect, hold, use and disclose personal information, including that of our personnel, consumers, healthcare professionals, patients, medical research subjects, clinical investigators, customers, suppliers, vendors, business partners and investors.

 

Cybersecurity

 

We employ an array of data security technologies, processes, and methods across our infrastructure to protect systems and sensitive information from unauthorized access. OneMedNet maintains comprehensive identity and access management practices (e.g., roles and access privileges for each user; multi-factor authentication, privileged user accounts, single sign-on, user lifecycle management) and employs a variety of security information and event management tools. We developed, maintain and utilize a global integrated information security framework to guide our practices, based on relevant industry frameworks and laws, including, but not limited to NIST, GxP, HITRUST, the ISO 27000 family, COBIT, GDPR, and HIPAA.

 

26
 

 

The framework consists of policies, standards, procedures, work Instructions and documentation. Information is classified into four categories to help individuals apply the right level of controls and safeguards to information, applications and systems. Our cybersecurity program focuses on all areas of our business, including cloud-based environments, data centers, devices used by employees and contractors, facilities, networks, applications, vendors, disaster recovery / business continuity and controls and safeguards enabled through business processes and tools. We continuously monitor for threats and unauthorized access.

 

We draw on the knowledge and insight of external cybersecurity experts and vendors, and internally employ dedicated, certified, cybersecurity staff, such as but not limited to, CISSP, CISM, CISA, CSSP or other equivalent certifications, that leverage an array of third-party tools to secure OneMedNet information infrastructure and protect systems and information from unauthorized access. Non-technical safeguards also play an important role in our cybersecurity program. We provide various training programs and tools to employees so they can avoid risky practices and help us promptly identify potential or actual issues. We also have global incident response procedures, global service tools to log incidents and issues for investigation, and an ethics line to report concerns and follow-up on matters already reported. The Compliance team, led by our Chief Compliance Officer, develops and implements our strategy, as well as monitors systems and devices for risks and threats.

OneMedNet provides high-quality, de-identified, regulatory-grade imaging and clinical data; as such OneMedNet adheres to all applicable local and Federal regulatory quality requirements, including but not limited to FDA 21 CFR Part 11. OneMedNet maintains a rigorous and ongoing internal quality management system to enable the organization to produce the highest quality regulatory compliant clinical data for our clients and consumers. This program includes:

 

  Ongoing internal audits, policy reviews, and procedure testing to ensure validation, audit trails, legacy systems, and record handling and retention adhere to the latest regulatory guidelines and best practices.
     
  Regular third-party or client initiated external audits to assess the compliance of OneMedNet to ensure operations are in accordance with, but not limited to the applicable regulations, standards, policies, and standard operation procedures.

Employees

 

Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, we had four officers: Paul Casey, Chief Executive Officer and Director; Dr. Jeffrey Yu, Chairman of the Board and Chief Medical Officer; Aaron Green, President; and Lisa Embree, Vice President — Finance and Chief Financial Officer; two executives, Brad Overby and Doug Arent; a director of marketing, Del Coufal, and 18 employees. Contemporaneous to the closing of the Business Combination, we appointed two additional executives, Betty Cosgrove as Area Vice President, and Steven Chartier, as Director Product Management, Head of Data. Presently, we have 20 employees.

 

Facilities

 

Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, the Company’s executive offices were located at Unit G6, Frome Business Park, Manor Road, Frome, United Kingdom, BA11 4FN and its telephone number was +44 203 833 4000. The Company agreed to pay ARC Group Ltd., an affiliate of the Sponsor, up to an amount of $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative support. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we had incurred $60,000 in fees under this agreement, respectively. Upon completion of our Business Combination, the Company ceased paying these monthly fees.

 

After the closing of the Business Combination, our headquarters is located at 6385 Old Shady Oak Road, Suite 250, Eden Prairie, MN 55344 and our telephone number is (800) 918-7189, where we lease and occupy our office space with an aggregate floor area of approximately 67 square feet from unrelated third parties under operating lease agreements. We consider our current office space adequate for our current operations and needs and that, should it be needed, suitable additional or alternative space will be available to accommodate our operations.

 

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenues during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an emerging growth company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) enacted in 2012. As an emerging growth company, we expect to take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies. These provisions include, but are not limited to:

 

  being permitted to present only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure in this prospectus;
     
  not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”);
     
  reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements; and
     
  exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

THE OFFERING

 

Common Stock offered by us

[*] shares based on the sale of our Common Stock at an assumed combined public offering price of $ [*] per share of Common Stock and accompanying warrant, which is the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on December __, 2023, and no sale of any pre-funded warrants.

 

In addition, an aggregate of 734,043 outstanding shares of Common Stock, which include 95,745 warrant shares pursuant to the PIPE SPA and each of the PIPE Warrants, and a maximum of up to 638,298 shares of our Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the PIPE Notes by the selling securityholders identified in this prospectus, at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $10.00 per share, and (ii) 92.5% of the lowest volume weighted average trading price for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date, subject to a minimum of $2.50, which would convert to a maximum of 638,298 PIPE Notes shares of our Common Stock.

   
Pre-funded warrants offered by us We are also offering to certain purchasers whose purchase of shares of Common Stock in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding Common Stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if such purchasers so choose, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, in lieu of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise result in any such purchaser’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding Common Stock. Each pre-funded warrant will be exercisable for one share of our Common Stock. The purchase price of each pre-funded warrant and accompanying warrant will equal the price at which the share of Common Stock and accompanying warrant are being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.0001, and the exercise price of each pre-funded warrant will be $0.0001 per share.
   
  The pre-funded warrants will be exercisable immediately and may be exercised at any time until all of the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. This offering also relates to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any pre-funded warrants sold in this offering. For each pre-funded warrant we sell, the number of shares of Common Stock we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. Because we will issue a warrant for each share of our Common Stock and for each pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of our Common Stock sold in this offering, the number of warrants sold in this offering will not change as a result of a change in the mix of the shares of our Common Stock and pre-funded warrants sold.
   
Warrants offered by us Warrants to purchase an aggregate of [*] shares of our Common Stock based on the sale of our Common Stock at an assumed combined public offering price of $ [*] per share of Common Stock and accompanying warrant, which is the last reported sale price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on December [*], 2023. Each share of our Common Stock and each pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of our Common Stock is being sold together with a warrant to purchase one share of our common stock.

 

 

  Each warrant will have an exercise price of $ [*] per share (representing 100% of the price at which a share of Common Stock and accompanying warrant are sold to the public in this offering), will be immediately exercisable and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the original issuance date. Each Warrant is exercisable for one share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock.
   
  On or after the thirty (30) day anniversary of the date of this prospectus, a holder of the Warrants may also provide notice and elect an “alternative cashless exercise” pursuant to which they would receive an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise and (y) [*].

 

29
 

 

  The shares of Common Stock and pre-funded warrants, and the accompanying warrants, as the case may be, can only be purchased together in this offering but will be issued separately and will be immediately separable upon issuance. This prospectus also relates to the offering of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants.
   
Warrants Offered by the Selling Securityholders Hereunder 95,745 PIPE Warrants exercisable for one share of Common Stock by the selling security holders at an exercise price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth in the PIPE Warrants.
   
Shares Offered by the Selling Securityholders Pursuant to the PIPE Notes

638,298 shares of Common Stock that are the PIPE Note shares issuable upon the conversion of the PIPE Notes by the selling securityholders identified in this prospectus, at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $10.00 per share, and (ii) 92.5% of the lowest volume weighted average trading price for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date, subject to a minimum of $2.50.

   
Shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to this offering(1) 23,572,232 shares
   
Common Stock outstanding immediately after this offering(1)

[*] shares (assuming no exercise of the warrants and pre-funded warrants issued in connection with this offering).

 

638,298 shares of Common Stock that are the PIPE Note shares issuable upon the conversion of the PIPE Notes.

 

95,745 shares of Common Stock that are the PIPE Warrants shares assuming an exercise price of $10.00 per share.

   
Use of proceeds We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $[ ] million at an assumed public offering price of $[*] per share and accompanying warrant, which was the closing price of our Class A common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on December [*], 2023, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for (i) sales and marketing, (ii) operational costs, (iii) product development, (iv) manufacturing expansion and (v) working capital and other general corporate purposes. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to in-license, acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products, however, we have no current commitments or obligations to do so.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of our securities offered by the selling securityholders under this prospectus (the “PIPE Securities”). We will receive up to an aggregate of approximately $957,450 from the exercise of all PIPE Warrants, assuming the exercise in full of all of the PIPE Warrants for cash. We expect to use the net proceeds from the exercise of the PIPE Warrants for general corporate purposes. See the section titled “Use of Proceeds” appearing elsewhere in this prospectus for more information.

   
Risk Factors See “Risk Factors” on page 31 and other information included in this prospectus for a discussion of factors to consider carefully before deciding to invest in shares of our Common Stock.
   
Nasdaq Capital Market symbol Shares of our Common Stock are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ONMD.” There is no established trading market for the warrants, and we do not expect a trading market to develop. We do not intend to list the warrants on any securities exchange or other trading market. Without a trading market, the liquidity of the warrants will be extremely limited.
   
Lock-Up Restrictions Of the shares of Common Stock that may be offered or sold by selling securityholders identified in this prospectus, pursuant to the PIPE Notes and PIPE Warrants, 612,312 of those shares of Common Stock are subject to certain lock-up restrictions, which include 79,788 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the PIPE Warrants and 532,524 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the PIPE Notes.

 

(1) The number of shares of Common Stock that will be outstanding after this offering is based on approximately 23,572,232 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December [12], 2023, and excludes 1,685,881 shares of Common Stock reserved for future issuance under our 2022 Equity Incentive Plan.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. This prospectus contains a discussion of the risks applicable to an investment in our securities. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our operations. The occurrence of any of these known or unknown risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities. We may not be successful in preventing the material adverse effects that any of the following risks and uncertainties may cause. You could lose all or a significant portion of your investment due to any of these risks and uncertainties.

 

You should carefully consider the following risks, as well as the other information contained in this prospectus, including our historical financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus before you decide to purchase our securities. Any one of these risks and uncertainties has the potential to cause material adverse effects on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results which could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements expressed by us and a significant decrease in the value of our Common Stock shares and warrants. Refer to “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

Risks Related to this Offering and Our Common Stock

 

Our stock price may be volatile, and purchasers of our Common Stock could incur substantial losses.

 

The stock market in general has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to operating performance of individual companies, particularly following a public offering of a company with a small public float. There is the potential for rapid and substantial price volatility of our Common Stock following this offering. These broad market factors may seriously harm the market price of our Common Stock, regardless of our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, which may make it difficult for investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our Common Stock.

 

We are currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If we are unable to maintain listing of our securities on Nasdaq or any stock exchange, our stock price could be adversely affected and the liquidity of our stock and our ability to obtain financing could be impaired and it may be more difficult for our stockholders to sell their securities.

 

Although our Common Stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market, we may not be able to continue to meet the exchange’s minimum listing requirements or those of any other national exchange. If we are unable to maintain listing on Nasdaq or if a liquid market for our Common Stock does not develop or is sustained, our Common Stock may remain thinly traded.

 

The listing rules of Nasdaq require listing issuers to comply with certain standards in order to remain listed on its exchange. If, for any reason, we should fail to maintain compliance with these listing standards and Nasdaq should delist our securities from trading on its exchange and we are unable to obtain listing on another national securities exchange, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our stockholders:

 

  the liquidity of our Common Stock;
     
  the market price of our Common Stock;
     
  our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations;
     
  the number of institutional and general investors that will consider investing in our Common Stock;
     
  the number of investors in general that will consider investing in our Common Stock;
     
  the number of market makers in our Common Stock;
     
  the availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of our Common Stock; and
     
  the number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in shares of our Common Stock.

 

31
 

 

Our principal stockholders will continue to have significant influence over the election of our board of directors and approval of any significant corporate actions, including any sale of the company.

 

Our founders, executive officers, directors, and other principal stockholders, in the aggregate, beneficially own a majority of our outstanding stock. These stockholders currently have, and likely will continue to have, significant influence with respect to the election of our board of directors and approval or disapproval of all significant corporate actions. The concentrated voting power of these stockholders could have the effect of delaying or preventing an acquisition of the company or another significant corporate transaction.

 

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.

 

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering, including for any of the currently intended purposes described in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds.” Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. Our management may not apply our cash from this offering in ways that ultimately increase the value of any investment in our securities or enhance stockholder value. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our stockholders. If we do not invest or apply our cash in ways that enhance stockholder value, we may fail to achieve expected financial results, which may result in a decline in the price of our shares of Common Stock, and, therefore, may negatively impact our ability to raise capital, invest in or expand our business, acquire additional products or licenses, commercialize our product, or continue our operations.

 

We could be subject to securities class action litigation.

 

In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against companies following a decline in the market price of their securities. In 2020, 22% of securities class action litigation filings were against defendants in the health technology and services sector, which accounted for 22% of new filings. If we face such litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could harm our business.

 

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for the shares and trading volume could decline.

 

The trading market for our Common Stock will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. If research analysts do not establish and maintain adequate research coverage or if one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our Common Stock or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for our Common Stock would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which, in turn, could cause the market price or trading volume for our common stock to decline.

 

We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future, and you must rely on price appreciation of your shares of Common Stock for return on your investment.

 

We have paid no cash dividends on any class of our stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the near term. For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our stock. Accordingly, investors must be prepared to rely on sales of their shares after price appreciation to earn an investment return, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our shares. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our board deems relevant.

 

As the public offering price is substantially higher than our net tangible book value per share, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution.

 

If you purchase Common Stock in this offering, you will pay more for your shares of Common Stock than the amount paid by our existing stockholders for their shares on a per share basis. As a result, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value per share in relation to the price that you paid for your shares. We expect the dilution as a result of the offering to be $_____ per share to new investors purchasing our shares of Common Stock in this offering. In addition, you will experience further dilution to the extent that our shares are issued upon the exercise of any warrants or exercise of stock options under any stock incentive plans. See “Dilution” for a more complete description of how the value of your investment in our shares will be diluted upon completion of this offering.

 

32
 

 

Future sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, either by us or by our existing stockholders, or the possibility that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.

 

Future sales in the public market of shares of our Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, shares held by our existing stockholders or shares issued upon exercise of our outstanding stock options or warrants, or the perception by the market that these sales could occur, could lower the market price of our Common Stock or make it difficult for us to raise additional capital.

 

There is no public market for the pre-funded warrants or warrants being offered in this offering.

 

There is no established public trading market for the pre-funded warrants or warrants being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the pre-funded warrants or warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system, including The Nasdaq Capital Market. Without an active market, the liquidity of the pre-funded warrants and warrants will be limited.

 

Holders of pre-funded warrants and warrants purchased in this offering will have no rights as common stockholders until such holders exercise such warrants and acquire our Common Stock.

 

Until holders of pre-funded warrants or warrants acquire shares of our Common Stock upon exercise of such warrants, holders of pre-funded warrants or warrants will have no rights with respect to the shares of our Common Stock underlying such warrants. Upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants or warrants, the holders will be entitled to exercise the rights of a Common Stockholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

 

We will incur increased costs as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives and corporate governance practices.

 

As a public company, and particularly after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we will incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses that we did not incur previously. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”), the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq, and other applicable securities rules and regulations impose various requirements on U.S. reporting public companies, including the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, we expect that these rules and regulations may make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, which in turn could make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified senior management personnel or members for our board of directors. In addition, these rules and regulations are often subject to varying interpretations, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. Pursuant to Section 404 of SOX (“Section 404”), we will be required to furnish a report by our senior management on our internal control over financial reporting.

 

While we remain an emerging growth company, we will not be required to include an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm. To prepare for eventual compliance with Section 404, once we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we will be engaged in a process to document and evaluate our internal control over financial reporting, which is both costly and challenging. In this regard, we will need to continue to dedicate internal resources, potentially engage outside consultants and adopt a detailed work plan to assess and document the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting, continue steps to improve control processes as appropriate, validate through testing that controls are functioning as documented and implement a continuous reporting and improvement process for internal control over financial reporting. Despite our efforts, there is a risk that we will not be able to conclude, within the prescribed timeframe or at all, that our internal control over financial reporting is effective as required by Section 404.

 

33
 

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” and the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“the JOBS Act”). For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of our prior second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

 

In addition, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies may delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We may elect not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, may be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our share price may be more volatile.

 

Anti-takeover provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair a takeover attempt.

 

Our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions which could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying or preventing an acquisition deemed undesirable by our board of directors. Our corporate governance documents include provisions:

 

  authorizing “blank check” preferred stock, which could be issued by our board of directors without stockholder approval and may contain voting, liquidation, dividend, and other rights superior to our common stock;
     
  limiting the liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers;
     
  limiting the ability of our stockholders to call and bring business before special meetings;
     
  requiring advance notice of stockholder proposals for business to be conducted at meetings of our stockholders and for nominations of candidates for election to our board of directors;
     
  controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of board of directors and stockholder meetings; and
     
  providing our board of directors with the express power to postpone previously scheduled annual meetings and to cancel previously scheduled special meetings.

 

These provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in our management. As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation law, which prevents some stockholders holding more than 15% of our outstanding common stock from engaging in certain business combinations without approval of the holders of substantially all of our outstanding common stock.

 

Any provision of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our Common Stock and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our Common Stock.

 

34
 

 

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees.

 

Our certificate of incorporation requires that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for each of the following:

 

  any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf;
     
  any action asserting a claim for breach of any fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, or other employee of ours to the Company or our stockholders, creditors or other constituents;
     
   ● any action asserting a claim against us or any director or officer of ours arising pursuant to, or a claim against us or any of our directors or officers, with respect to the interpretation or application of any provision of, the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation or bylaws; or
     
  any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine;

 

provided, that, if and only if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware dismisses any of the foregoing actions for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, any such action or actions may be brought in another state court sitting in the State of Delaware.

 

The exclusive forum provision is limited to the extent permitted by law, and it will not apply to claims arising under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or for any other federal securities laws which provide for exclusive federal jurisdiction.

 

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock are deemed to have notice of and consented to this provision.

 

Furthermore, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all such Securities Act actions. Accordingly, both state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. To prevent having to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations, our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. While the Delaware courts have determined that such choice of forum provisions are facially valid, a stockholder may nevertheless seek to bring such a claim arising under the Securities Act against us, our directors, officers, or other employees in a venue other than in the federal district courts of the United States of America. In such instance, we would expect to vigorously assert the validity and enforceability of the exclusive forum provisions of our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

 

Although we believe this provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, this provision may limit or discourage a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees. Alternatively, if a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in our certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business and financial condition.

 

We note that there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce the provision and that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Although we believe this provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers.

Our Business Risks

 

We have a history of operating losses and may never achieve profitability in the future.

 

We have experienced significant recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception. For example, for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, we had net losses of approximately $2.8 million, $2.9 million and $6.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, we had accumulated losses of approximately $31.9 million.

 

We expect to continue to incur significant losses in the development, marketing, sale and delivery of our services. If we do not grow our revenues or if we lose existing customers, we expect to continue to incur losses from operations for the foreseeable future. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development, marketing, sale and delivery of our imaging real world data (“iRWDTM”) services, we may experience larger than expected future losses and may never become profitable. Moreover, there is a substantial risk that we may not be able to successfully commercialize our iRWDTM services, which would make it unlikely that we would ever achieving profitability.

 

OneMedNet believes it has demonstrated its quality and responsiveness in clinical imaging and curation of RWD based upon success in compiling one of the largest networks of imaging centers (comprised of hospitals, imaging centers and clinics) throughout the United States covering more than 15 million patients to date. On the global front, OneMedNet works with hospitals and life science companies around the world including Ireland, United Kingdom, Ghana, Denmark and South Korea and growing. We base these claims on our understanding of our competition in the United States and globally. However, if we were to lose these relationships with our network of imaging centers or lose our customers or our competitors’ technology surpasses ours, our competitors could claim a greater market share domestically or abroad, which could reduce our growth and our profits, which could harm our business, financial position, results of operations and prospects.

 

Two significant customers represented 31%, 28% and 53% of our revenues for 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively, and is expected to continue to represent a significant portion of our forecasted revenue for 2023.

 

Change Healthcare and Siemens Medical Solutions USA, collectively represented 53% and 28% of our revenues in 2022 and 2021, respectively. Change Healthcare and Imaging, LLC, collectively represented 31% of our revenues in 2020. Change Healthcare is expected to continue to represent a significant portion of our forecasted revenue for 2023. If we fail to maintain and grow our relationships with Change Healthcare, we could lose a significant portion of our revenue for 2023, which would materially adversely affect our results of operations and our business.

 

Change Healthcare and OneMedNet have a seven-year relationship, which we expect to continue and to grow. Potential growth of this relationship could involve several paths potentially. The first, Change Healthcare continues as a valued customer and partner of OneMedNet in connection to which, Change Healthcare automatically renews its contract every year in March. The second relates to the sale that OneMedNet made in the Country of Ireland three years ago, and began implementation of in 2020, whereby OneMedNet has successfully installed its proprietary BEAM Image Exchange technology in all 46 public hospitals as well as the 24 private hospitals. Thus, the entire country of Ireland is using OneMedNet’s BEAM Image Exchange technology. It is anticipated that this relationship will continue well into the future. The subscription revenue anticipated from this relationship in Ireland is expected to generate approximately $1 million per year for the next four years at a minimum. OneMedNet believes the revenue for BEAM will continue to be flat over the next four years with the exception of volume increases from the clients increasing their image volume and adjustments for inflation.

 

Siemens Medical Solutions USA and its affiliated entities are new clients of OneMedNet since 2021 (collectively, “Siemens”). In 2022, OneMedNet’s revenue from contracts with Siemens was more than double its revenue earned from contracts with Siemens in 2021. OneMedNet is optimistic to continue to maintain this customer’s contracts and potential grow it further in 2023 but there can be no assurance of this outcome. If OneMedNet were to lose one or more of its significant customers, its revenue may significantly decline. In addition, revenue from significant customers may vary from period to period depending on the timing of renewing existing agreements or entering into new agreements for additional OneMedNet products as well as other unforeseen risks and variables discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus. The loss of one or more of OneMedNet’s significant customers could adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

36
 

 

We believe Siemen’s will continue to demand the highest quality imaging services across numerous therapies, diseases, and disorders. Siemens Healthineers has a large demand for imaging studies to create artificial Intelligence driven algorithms to increase diagnosis precision and accuracy. OneMedNet has been asked to supply Siemens numerous disease specific studies in the near future including: Chest Radiography – 4,000+ studies; Brain MRI – 400 studies; Pelvic MR Imaging – 500 studies; Training data CR – 200,000 studies, among others. We expect the number and size of the orders to grow to fuel Siemens aggressive growth strategy however there can be no assurance of such growth. Failure to continue our relationships with Change Healthcare and Siemens would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. You should not rely on our historical relationship with these companies as an indication of our future performance.

 

We may encounter difficulties in managing our attempted growth of our business, which could negatively impact our operations.

 

As we expand, market, sell and deliver our service offerings, we anticipate that we will need to increase our service development, sales and marketing and administrative headcount. Such an evolution may impact our strategic focus and our deployment and allocation of resources.

 

Our ability to manage our operations and growth effectively depends upon the continual improvement of our procedures, reporting systems and operational, financial and management controls. We may not be able to implement administrative and operational improvements in an efficient or timely manner and may discover deficiencies in existing systems and controls. If we do not meet these challenges, we may be unable to execute our business strategies and may be forced to expend more resources than anticipated addressing these issues.

 

We may acquire additional technology and complementary businesses in the future. Acquisitions involve many risks, any of which could materially harm our business, including the diversion of management’s attention from core business concerns, failure to effectively exploit acquired technologies, failure to successfully integrate the acquired business or realize expected synergies or the loss of key employees from either our business or the acquired businesses.

 

In addition, in order to continue to meet our obligations as a public listed company in both Australia and the United States and to support our anticipated long-term growth, we will need to increase our general and administrative capabilities. Our management, personnel and systems may not be adequate to support this future growth. If we are unable to successfully manage our growth and the increased complexity of our operations, our business, financial position, results of operations and prospects may be harmed.

 

Our recent growth rates may not be sustainable, or indicative of future growth.

 

Our historical revenue is extremely low in absolute dollars. While our revenues grew significantly on a percentage basis from 2020 to 2022, this rate of growth may not be sustainable or indicative of our future rate of growth. We believe that our continued revenue growth, as well as our ability to reach profitability, will depend upon, among other factors, our ability to address the challenges, risks and difficulties described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to successfully manage any such challenges or risks to our future growth. Any of these factors could cause our revenue growth to decline and may adversely affect our margins and reaching profitability. Failure to continue our revenue growth or improve margins would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. You should not rely on our historical rate of revenue growth as an indication of our future performance.

 

37
 

 

We may be unable to execute our business objectives and growth strategies successfully or sustain our growth and, as a result, this could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

 

The highly complex nature of our industry requires that we effectively execute and manage our business objectives and growth strategies, such as expanding our marketing and commercialization of our services in the U.S. and internationally, adding new customers, and increasing our service delivery capacity. However, we may not be able to execute on these strategies as effectively as anticipated. Our ability to execute on these strategies depends on a number of factors, including, without limitation:

 

our ability to obtain adequate capital resources to complete execute our growth plans;
   
our ability to hire, train and retain skilled managers and personnel, including quality and production personnel, and marketing and commercial specialists;
   
our ability to protect our existing and new services by registering and defending our intellectual property rights; and
   
our ability to successfully add new customers.

 

To the extent we are unable to execute on our growth strategies in accordance with our expectations, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and future results of operations.

 

The real-world data and real-world evidence business market continues to evolve, is highly competitive, and we may not be successful in competing in this industry or establishing and maintaining confidence in our long-term business prospects among current and future partners and customers.

 

The real-world data and real-world evidence business market in which we compete continues to evolve and is highly competitive. To date, we have focused our efforts on its expertise in clinical imaging innovation solutions that connects healthcare providers and patients and satisfies a crucial need with the life sciences. We offer direct access to clinical images and associated contextual patient record. OneMedNet proved the commercial and regulatory viability of imaging Regulatory Grade Real-World Data (“iRWDTM”), a promising emerging market, that exactly matches OneMedNet’s life science partners’ case selection protocol. OneMedNet has the immediate ability to quickly search and extensively curate multi-layer data from a federated group of healthcare facilities and to provide fast access to curated medical images that has proved the commercial and regulatory viability of imaging RWD and covers the complete value chain in imaging RWD, validated by an increasing federated network of providers. However, real-world data and real-world evidence has been increasingly adopted and our current competitors have, and future competitors may have, greater resources than we do and may also be able to devote greater resources to the development of their current and future technologies. These competitors also may have greater access to customers and may be able to establish cooperative or strategic relationships amongst themselves or with third parties that may further enhance their resources and competitive positioning.

 

Developments in improvements in real-world data and real-world evidence curation by competitors may materially adversely affect the sales, pricing and gross margins of our business. If a competing technology or process is developed that has superior operational or price performance, our business will be harmed. Similarly, if we fail to accurately predict and ensure that our real-world data and real-world evidence offering can address customers’ changing needs or emerging technological trends, or if our customers fail to achieve the benefits expected from our real-world data and real-world evidence offering, our business will be harmed.

 

We must continue to commit resources to develop our real-world data and real-world evidence technology in order to establish a competitive position, and these commitments will be made without knowing whether such investments will result in products potential customers will accept. There is no assurance we will successfully identify new customer requirements, develop and bring our real-world data and real-world evidence to market on a timely basis, or that products and technologies developed by others will not render our real-world data and real-world evidence obsolete or noncompetitive, any of which would adversely affect our business and operating results.

 

If we are unable to attract and retain key employees and qualified personnel, our ability to compete could be harmed.

 

We depend on the talents and continued efforts of our senior management and key employees. The loss of members of our management or key employees may disrupt our business and harm our results of operations. Further, our ability to manage further expansion will require us to continue to attract, motivate and retain additional qualified personnel. Competition for this type of personnel is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting, integrating and retaining the personnel required to grow and operate our business effectively. There can be no assurance that our current management team or any new members of our management team will be able to successfully execute our business and operating strategies.

 

38
 

 

Our operating and financial results forecast relies in large part upon assumptions and analyses developed by us. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, our actual operating results may be materially different from our forecasted results.

 

The projected financial and operating information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus reflect current estimates of future performance. Whether actual operating and financial results and business developments will be consistent with our expectations and assumptions as reflected in our forecasts depends on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control, including, but not limited to:

 

  success and timing of development activity;
  customer acceptance of our products;
  competition, including from established and future competitors;
  whether we can obtain sufficient capital to sustain and grow our business;
  our ability to manage our growth;
  whether we can manage relationships with key suppliers;
  our ability to retain existing key management, integrate recent hires and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel; and
  the overall strength and stability of domestic and international economies.

 

Unfavorable changes in any of these or other factors, most of which are beyond our control, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial results.

 

Our operations could be damaged or adversely affected as a result of natural disasters and other catastrophic events.

 

Our operations could be adversely affected by events outside of our control, such as natural disasters, wars, health epidemics such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and other calamities. We cannot assure you that any backup systems will be adequate to protect us from the effects of fire, floods, typhoons, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins, war, riots, terrorist attacks or similar events. Any of the foregoing events may give rise to interruptions, breakdowns, system failures, technology platform failures or internet failures, which could cause the loss or corruption of data or malfunctions of software or hardware as well as adversely affect our ability to provide services.

 

Any financial or economic crisis, or perceived threat of such a crisis, including a significant decrease in consumer confidence, may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

In recent years, the United States and global economies suffered dramatic downturns as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a deterioration in the credit markets and related financial crisis as well as a variety of other factors including, among other things, extreme volatility in security prices, severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, ratings downgrades of certain investments and declining valuations of others. The United States and certain foreign governments have taken unprecedented actions in an attempt to address and rectify these extreme market and economic conditions by providing liquidity and stability to the financial markets. If the actions taken by these governments are not successful, the return of adverse economic conditions may negatively impact the demand for iRWDTM offering and may negatively impact our ability to raise capital, if needed, on a timely basis and on acceptable terms or at all.

 

39
 

 

Our ability to utilize our net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations.

 

In general, under Section 382 of the Code, a corporation that undergoes an “ownership change” is subject to limitations on its ability to use its pre-change net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”), to offset future taxable income. The limitations apply if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” which is generally defined as a greater than 50 percentage point change (by value) in its equity ownership by certain stockholders over a three-year period. If we have experienced an ownership change at any time since our incorporation, we may already be subject to limitations on our ability to utilize our existing NOLs and other tax attributes to offset taxable income or tax liability. In addition, the Business Combination and future changes in our stock ownership, which may be outside of our control, may trigger an ownership change. Similar provisions of state tax law may also apply to limit our use of accumulated state tax attributes. As a result, even if we earn net taxable income in the future, our ability to use these or our pre-change NOL carryforwards and other tax attributes to offset such taxable income or tax liability may be subject to limitations, which could potentially result in increased future income tax liability to us.

 

There is also a risk that changes in law or regulatory changes made in response to the need for some jurisdictions to raise additional revenue to help counter the fiscal impact from unforeseen reasons, including suspensions on the use of net operating losses or tax credits, possibly with retroactive effect, may result in our existing net operating losses or tax credits expiring or otherwise being unavailable to offset future income tax liabilities.

 

We are subject to many hazards and operational risks that can disrupt our business, some of which may not be insured or fully covered by insurance.

 

Our operations are subject to many hazards and operational risks inherent to our business, including: (a) general business risks; (b) warranty liability; and (c) damage to third parties (e.g., our vendors), our infrastructure or properties caused by fires, floods and other natural disasters, power losses, telecommunications failures, terrorist attacks, riots, cyberattacks, public health crises such as the current COVID-19 pandemic (and other future pandemics or epidemics), human errors and similar events. As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, or similar pandemics, we have and may in the future experience disruptions that could severely impact our business and the business of our customers.

 

Our insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover our liabilities related to such hazards or operational risks. For example, we do not currently maintain cybersecurity insurance and our insurance providers may take the position that our coverage, under present circumstances, does not extend to business interruptions as they relate to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, we may not be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at rates we consider reasonable and commercially justifiable, and insurance may not continue to be available on terms as favorable as our current arrangements. The occurrence of a significant uninsured claim or a claim in excess of the insurance coverage limits maintained by us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our management has limited experience in operating a public company.

 

Our executive officers have limited experience in the management of a publicly traded company. Our management team may not successfully or effectively manage our transition to a public company that will be subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under federal securities laws. Their limited experience in dealing with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies could be a significant disadvantage in that it is likely that an increasing amount of their time may be devoted to these activities which will result in less time being devoted to the management and growth of our Company. We may not have adequate personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience, and training in the accounting policies, practices or internal controls over financial reporting required of public companies in the United States. The development and implementation of the standards and controls necessary for us to achieve the level of accounting standards required of a public company in the United States may require costs greater than expected. It is possible that we will be required to expand our employee base and hire additional employees to support our operations as a public company which will increase our operating costs in future periods.

 

40
 

 

We will incur significant increased expenses and administrative burdens as a public company, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We will face increased legal, accounting, administrative and other costs and expenses as a public company that legacy OneMedNet Corporation did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), including the requirements of Section 404, as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules and regulations promulgated and to be promulgated thereunder, the PCAOB and the securities exchanges, impose additional reporting and other obligations on public companies. Compliance with public company requirements will increase costs and make certain activities more time-consuming. A number of those requirements will require us to carry out activities we have not done previously. For example, we have created new Board committees and adopted new internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. In addition, expenses associated with SEC reporting requirements will be incurred. Furthermore, if any issues in complying with those requirements are identified (for example, if the auditors identify a material weakness or significant deficiency in the internal control over financial reporting), we could incur additional costs rectifying those issues, and the existence of those issues could adversely affect our reputation or investor perceptions of it. It may also be more expensive to obtain director and officer liability insurance. Risks associated with our status as a public company may make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board or as executive officers. The additional reporting and other obligations imposed by these rules and regulations will increase legal and financial compliance costs and the costs of related legal, accounting and administrative activities. These increased costs will require us to divert a significant amount of money that could otherwise be used to expand the business and achieve strategic objectives. Advocacy efforts by stockholders and third parties may also prompt additional changes in governance and reporting requirements, which could further increase costs.

 

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business, or the market in which we operate, or if they change their recommendations regarding our securities adversely, the price and trading volume of our securities could decline.

 

The trading market for our securities will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, market or competitors. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on us. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of us, our share price and trading volume would likely be negatively impacted. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our shares of Common Stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our shares of Common Stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease our coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on it, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our share price or trading volume to decline.

 

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock, this Offering, and Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws Provisions

 

Our Common Stock has been and may in the future continue to be subject to extreme volatility.

 

The trading price of our Common Stock may be subject to extreme volatility. We cannot predict the magnitude of future fluctuations in the trading price of our Common Stock. The trading price of our Common Stock may be affected by a number of factors, including events described in the risk factors set forth in this prospectus and in our periodic reports filed with the SEC from time to time, as well as our operating results, financial condition and other events or factors. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in our securities. Factors affecting the trading price of our securities may include:

 

  announcements by us or our competitors regarding technical developments and levels of performance achieved by our or their real-world data and real-world evidence offering;
  announcements by us regarding developments in our relationship with existing and future key customers;
  our ability to bring our products and technologies to market on a timely basis, or at all;
  our operating results or development efforts failing to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;
  actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to it;
  changes in the market’s expectations about our operating results or the real-world data and real-world evidence industry;

 

41
 

 

  success of competitors actual or perceived development efforts;
  changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning the Company or the real-world data and real-world evidence industry in general;
  operating and share price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to the Company;
  disputes or other developments related to proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters and our ability to obtain intellectual property protection for our technologies;
  changes in laws and regulations affecting our business;
  our ability to meet compliance requirements;
  commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving the Company;
  changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;
  the volume of shares of Common Stock available for public sale;
  the level of demand for our Common Stock, including the amount of short interest in our stock;
  any major change in our Board or management;
  sales of substantial amounts of the shares of Common Stock by our directors, executive officers or significant stockholders or the perception that such sales could occur;
  the expiration of contractual lock-up agreements with our executive officers, directors and stockholders, which we have entered into and may enter into in the future from time to time; and
  general economic and political conditions such as recessions, interest rates, fuel prices, international currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism.

 

Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our securities irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general, and the Nasdaq in particular, have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of our securities, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for retail stocks or the stocks of other companies which investors perceive to be similar to the Company could depress our share price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of our securities also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

 

Following certain periods of volatility in the market price of our securities, we may become subject of securities litigation. We have experienced, and may in the future experience additional litigation following periods of volatility. This type of litigation may result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

 

Sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public markets, or the perception that such sales could occur, could reduce the price that our Common Stock might otherwise attain.

 

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market after this offering, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock and may make it more difficult for you to sell your Common Stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate. Based on the total number of outstanding shares of our capital stock as of December [*], 2023, we will have approximately [*] shares of Common Stock outstanding upon completion of this offering. All of the shares of Common Stock sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restrictions or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares held by the majority of our PIPE Investors.

 

42
 

 

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Transactions”), certain holders of the Company’s securities entered into a Lock-Up Agreement pursuant to which they agreed to certain restrictions on the transfer of their Common Stock.

 

The PIPE Investors are entitled to require us to register shares underlying the PIPE Notes and the PIPE Warrants owned by them for public sale in the United States, and are filing this proxy statement/prospectus, to register those shares. Subject to the satisfaction of applicable exercise periods and expiration of the lock-up agreements referred to above, the shares issued upon exercise of the PIPE Notes and the PIPE Warrants will be available for immediate resale in the United States in the open market. See the section titled “Shares Eligible for Future Sale” for additional information.

 

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.

 

Our management has broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering, including to provide sufficient funding to grow our customer base and for working capital and general corporate purposes, and we may spend or invest these proceeds in a way with which our stockholders disagree. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business. Pending their use, we may invest such proceeds in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value, which may negatively impact the market price of our common stock.

 

Our business model is capital-intensive, and we may not be able to raise additional capital on attractive terms, if at all, which could be dilutive to stockholders. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed, our operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

 

We can be expected to continue to sustain substantial operating expenses without generating sufficient revenues to cover expenditures. Over time, we expect that we will need to raise additional funds, including through the issuance of equity, equity-related or debt securities or through obtaining credit from financial institutions to fund, together with our principal sources of liquidity, ongoing costs, any significant unplanned or accelerated expenses, and new strategic investments. We cannot be certain that additional capital will be available on attractive terms, if at all, when needed, which could be dilutive to stockholders, and our financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

 

We do not expect to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

We do not anticipate declaring any cash dividends to holders of our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Consequently, investors may need to rely on sales of their shares after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investment.

 

There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of the Nasdaq.

 

Our Common Stock and public Warrants are listed on the Nasdaq under the symbols “ONMD” and “ONMDW”, respectively. If the Nasdaq delists our securities from trading on its exchange for failure to meet the listing standards and we are not able to list such securities on another national securities exchange, we expect such securities could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, we and our stockholders could face significant material adverse consequences including:

 

  a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;
  reduced liquidity for our securities;
  a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and
  a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

 

Risks Related to Our Warrants

 

We may redeem unexpired Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to Warrantholders.

 

Our public Warrants are currently exercisable for one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. We have the ability to redeem outstanding Warrants at any time prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per Warrant, provided that the last reported sales price of Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date we send the notice of redemption to Warrantholders and provided certain other conditions are met. If and when the Warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption rights even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. As a result, we may redeem the Warrants, as set forth above even if the holders are otherwise unable to exercise the Warrants.

 

Redemption of the outstanding Warrants could force Warrantholders (i) to exercise their Warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for them to do so, (ii) to sell their Warrants at the then-current market price when they might otherwise wish to hold their Warrants or (iii) to accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding Warrants are called for redemption, we expect would be substantially less than the market value of their Warrants. None of the private placement Warrants will be redeemable by us so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We estimate that the net proceeds from our issuance and sale of shares of our Common Stock in this offering will be approximately $[*] million based on an assumed public offering price of $[*] per share and accompanying warrant, which was the closing price of our Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on December ___, 2023, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

 

The foregoing discussion assumes no sale of pre-funded warrants, which if sold, would reduce the number of shares of common stock that we are offering on a one-for-one basis.

 

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for (i) sales and marketing, (ii) operational costs, (iii) product development, (iv) manufacturing expansion and (v) working capital and other general corporate purposes. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to in-license, acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products, however, we have no current commitments or obligations to do so.

 

A $[*] increase or decrease in the assumed public offering price of $[*] per share would increase or decrease the net proceeds from this offering by approximately $[*] million, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions.

 

An increase (decrease) of _____ million shares in the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase (decrease) the net proceeds from this offering by approximately $_____, assuming no change in the assumed public offering price per share and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of our securities offered by the PIPE Investors (as selling securityholders) under this prospectus (the “PIPE Securities”). We will receive up to an aggregate of approximately $957,450 from the exercise of all PIPE Warrants, assuming the exercise in full of all of the PIPE Warrants for cash. We expect to use the net proceeds from the exercise of the PIPE Warrants, if any, for general corporate purposes.

 

This expected use of the net proceeds from this offering and our existing cash represents our intentions based upon our current plans, financial condition and business conditions. Predicting the cost necessary to develop product candidates can be difficult and the amounts and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including the progress of our development and commercialization efforts, any collaborations that we may enter into with third parties for our product candidates and any unforeseen cash needs. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this offering and our existing cash.

 

In the ordinary course of our business, we expect to from time to time evaluate the acquisition of, or investment in, complementary products, technologies or businesses, and we could use a portion of the net proceeds from this offering for such activities. We currently do not have any agreements, arrangements, or commitments with respect to any potential acquisition, investment or license.

 

Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments, and government securities.

 

DILUTION

 

If you invest in our securities, your ownership interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between public offering price per share of our Common Stock and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock immediately after this offering.

 

As of September 30, 2023 we had a historical net tangible book value of $(14,738,338), or $(0.87) per share of Common Stock, based on 16,858,811 shares of Common Stock outstanding at November 29, 2023.

 

To the extent that stock options or warrants are exercised, new stock options are issued under our equity incentive plan, or we issue additional common stock in the future, there will be further dilution to investors participating in this offering. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital because of market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. If we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES WE ARE OFFERING

 

Common Stock

 

The description of our Common Stock under the section “Description of Capital Stock” in this prospectus is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Warrants

 

General - The following is a brief summary of certain terms and conditions of the warrants being offered by us. The following description is subject in all respects to the provisions contained in the form of warrant, the form of which will be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

Duration and Exercise Price - The warrants offered hereby will have an exercise price of $[*] per share. The warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time on or after the initial exercise date and on or before the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance. The exercise prices and numbers of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Common Stock. Warrants will be issued in certificated form only.

 

Exercisability - The warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our Common Stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below). A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of such holder’s warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or 9.99%, at the holder’s election) of our outstanding Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon notice from the holder to us, the holder may decrease or increase the limitation of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the warrants, provided that any increase in such limitation shall not be effective until 61 days following notice to us.

 

Cashless Exercise - If, at the time a holder exercises its warrants, a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the warrants under the Securities Act, is not then effective or available for the issuance of such shares, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to a formula set forth in the warrant.

 

Alternative Cashless Exercise - On or after the thirty (30) day anniversary of the date of the underwriting agreement, a holder of common warrants may also provide notice and elect an “alternative cashless exercise” pursuant to which they would receive an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise and (y) [*].

 

Transferability - A warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

 

Fractional Shares - No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon the exercise of the warrants. Rather, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued will, at our election, either be rounded up to the nearest whole number or we will pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price.

 

Trading Market - There is no established trading market for any of the warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to apply for a listing for any of the warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the warrants will be limited.

 

Rights as a Shareholder - Except as otherwise provided in the warrants or by virtue of the holders’ ownership of shares of our Common Stock, the holders of warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our Common Stock, including any voting rights, until such warrant holders exercise their warrants.

 

45
 

 

Fundamental Transaction - In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding Common Stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding common stock, the holders of the warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in each common warrant) approved by our Board of Directors, the holders of the common warrants have the right to require us or a successor entity to redeem the common warrants for cash in the amount of the Black-Scholes Value (as defined in each common warrant) of the unexercised portion of the common warrants on the date of the consummation of the Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control which is not approved by our Board of Directors, the holders of the common warrants have the right to require us or a successor entity to redeem the common warrants for the consideration paid in the Change of Control in the amount of the Black-Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of the common warrants on the date of the consummation of the Change of Control.

 

Waivers and Amendments - No term of the warrants may be amended or waived without the written consent of the holder of such warrant.

 

Pre-Funded Warrants

 

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the pre-funded warrants that are being offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the pre-funded warrant, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of pre-funded warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the pre-funded warrants.

 

Duration and Exercise Price - Each pre-funded warrant offered hereby will have an initial exercise price per share equal to $0.0001. The pre-funded warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Common Stock and the exercise price.

 

Exercisability - Each pre-funded warrant may be exercised, in cash or by a cashless exercise at the election of the holder at any time following the date of issuance and from time to time thereafter until the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. The pre-funded warrants will be exercisable in whole or in part by delivering to the Company a completed instruction form for exercise and complying with the requirements for exercise set forth in the pre-funded warrant. Payment of the exercise price may be made in cash or pursuant to a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the pre-funded warrant.

 

Cashless Exercise - At the time a holder exercises its pre-funded warrants, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the pre-funded warrants.

 

Exercise Limitation - In general, a holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of a pre-funded warrant if the holder (together with its Attribution Parties (as defined in the pre-funded warrant)) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% or 9.99%, at the election of the holder, of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the pre-funded warrant. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% upon notice to us, provided, that any increase in this limitation will not be effective until 61 days after such notice from the holder to us and such increase or decrease will apply only to the holder providing such notice.

 

Transferability - Subject to applicable laws, a pre-funded warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the pre-funded warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

 

Fractional Shares - No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants. Rather, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued will, at our election, either be rounded up to the nearest whole number or we will pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price.

 

Trading Market - There is no trading market available for the pre-funded warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

 

Right as a Stockholder - Except as otherwise provided in the pre-funded warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our Common Stock, the holders of the pre-funded warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our Common Stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise their pre-funded warrants.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

Our Common Stock is listed on NASDAQ under the symbol “ONMD”. Future sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time and future distributions of the shares owned by the PIPE Investors could also adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Sale of Restricted Shares

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had approximately 16,858,811 Common Stock equivalents issued and outstanding, excluding shares awarded in exchange for convertible notes and pursuant to equity award arrangements with directors and employees. Of these shares, all of the shares of our Common Stock received in the distribution are, and all of the shares sold pursuant to this registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part will be freely transferable without restriction under the Securities Act, unless purchased by our “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

 

Rule 144

 

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who is not deemed to be or have been one of our affiliates for purposes of the Securities Act at any time during 90 days preceding a sale and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least six months, including the holding period of any prior owner other than an affiliate, is entitled to sell such shares without registration, subject to compliance with the public information requirements of Rule 144. If such a person has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least one year, including the holding period of a prior owner other than an affiliate, then such person is entitled to sell such shares without complying with any of the requirements of Rule 144.

 

In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, our affiliates or persons selling shares on behalf of our affiliates, who have met the six-month holding period for beneficial ownership of “restricted shares” of our Common Stock, are entitled to sell within any three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

 

  1.0% of our then-outstanding shares of Common Stock, which will equal approximately [*] shares immediately after this offering; and
     
  the average weekly trading volume of our Common Stock on NASDAQ during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice of the sale on Form 144.

 

Sales under Rule 144 by our affiliates or persons selling shares on behalf of our affiliates are also subject to certain manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us. The sale of these shares, or the perception that sales will be made, could adversely affect the price of our common stock after this offering because a greater supply of shares would be, or would be perceived to be, available for sale in the public market.

 

Registration Statement on Form S-8

 

In the near future, we intend to file with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-8 registering an aggregate of [*] shares of common stock underlying equity awards we have made and will make to our employees and certain other qualifying individuals, and the resale of those shares of common stock. The Form S-8 became effective upon filing and shares of common stock so registered will become freely tradable when issued.

 

Registration Rights

 

We have entered into the stockholder and registration rights agreement with the PIPE Investors. This prospectus is part of the registration statement filed pursuant to the stockholder and registration rights agreement. We do not have any other contractual obligations to register our common stock.

UNDERWRITING

 

We have entered into an underwriting agreement with EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC (the “Representatives”) as the representatives of the underwriters named below, with respect to the offering of shares of our Common Stock and warrants.

After the offering to the public, the offering prices and other selling terms may be changed by the underwriters without changing the proceeds we will receive from the underwriters. Any shares and accompanying warrants sold by the underwriters to securities dealers will be sold at the public offering price less a concession not in excess of $____ per share.

49
 

 

Lock-Up Agreements

 

We will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, from the date of execution of the Underwriting Agreement and continuing for a period of 3 months from such date (the “Lock-Up Period”), (a) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of our capital stock; (b) file or caused to be filed any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of our capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of our capital stock; (c) complete any offering of our debt securities, other than entering into a line of credit with a traditional bank or (d) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our capital stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (a), (b), (c) or (d) above is to be settled by delivery of shares of our capital stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.

 

Our executive officers and directors have agreed pursuant to “lock-up” agreements not to, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, directly or indirectly, offer to sell, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of shares of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the transfer or disposition by any person at any time in the future of) our common stock, enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of our common stock, make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of common stock or any other of our securities or publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, subject to customary exceptions, for a period of six months from the date of this prospectus. The Representatives may, in their sole discretion and at any time or from time to time before the termination of the lock-up period release all or any portion of the securities subject to lock-up agreements; provided, however, that, subject to limited exceptions, at least three business days before the release or waiver or any lock-up agreement, the Representatives must notify us of the impending release or waiver and we will be required to announce the impending release or waiver through a major news service at least two business days before the release or waiver.

 

Indemnification

 

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make for these liabilities.

 

Price Stabilization, Short Positions, and Penalty Bids

 

Until the distribution of the Common Stock offered by this prospectus is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of the underwriters to bid for and to purchase our Common Stock. As an exception to these rules, the underwriters may engage in transactions effected in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act that are intended to stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our Common Stock. The underwriters may engage in over-allotment sales, syndicate covering transactions, stabilizing transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M.

 

 

 

Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases made by the managing underwriter for the purpose of preventing or slowing a decline in the market price of our securities while this offering is in progress.
     
  Short sales and over-allotments occur when the managing underwriter, on behalf of the underwriting syndicate, sells more of our shares than they purchase from us in this Offering. In order to cover the resulting short position, the managing underwriter may exercise the over-allotment option described above and/or may engage in syndicate covering transactions. There is no contractual limit on the size of any syndicate covering transaction. The underwriters will deliver a prospectus in connection with any such short sales. Purchasers of shares sold short by the underwriters are entitled to the same remedies under the federal securities laws as any other purchaser of units covered by the registration statement.
     
  Syndicate covering transactions are bids for or purchases of our securities on the open market by the managing underwriter on behalf of the underwriters in order to reduce a short position incurred by the managing underwriter on behalf of the underwriters.
     
  A penalty bid is an arrangement permitting the managing underwriter to reclaim the selling concession that would otherwise accrue to an underwriter if the Common Stock originally sold by the underwriter were later repurchased by the managing underwriter and therefore were not effectively sold to the public by such underwriter.

 

Stabilization, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our Common Stock or preventing or delaying a decline in the market price of our Common Stock. As a result, the price of our Common Stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market.

 

Neither we nor the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the effect that the transactions described above may have on the prices of our Common Stock. These transactions may occur on Nasdaq or on any trading market. If any of these transactions are commenced, they may be discontinued without notice at any time. See also “Plan of Distribution” elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME AND ESTATE TAX CONSEQUENCES

TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS

 

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock as of the date hereof. Except where noted, this summary deals only with common stock that is held as a capital asset by a non-U.S. holder (as defined below).

 

A “non-U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of our common stock (other than an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, any of the following:

 

  an individual citizen or resident of the United States;
  a corporation (or any other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
  an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
  a trust if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

 

This summary is based upon provisions of the Code, and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions as of the date hereof. Those authorities may be changed, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences different from those summarized below. This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income and estate taxes and does not deal with foreign, state, local or other tax considerations that may be relevant to non-U.S. holders in light of their particular circumstances. In addition, it does not represent a detailed description of the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences applicable to you if you are subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws (including if you are a United States expatriate, foreign pension fund, “controlled foreign corporation,” “passive foreign investment company” or a partnership or other pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes). We cannot assure you that a change in law will not alter significantly the tax considerations that we describe in this summary.

 

If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding our common stock, you should consult your tax advisors.

 

If you are considering the purchase of our Common Stock, you should consult your own tax advisors concerning the particular U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences to you of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Common Stock, as well as the consequences to you arising under other U.S. federal tax laws and the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.

 

Dividends

 

In the event that we make a distribution of cash or other property (other than certain pro rata distributions of our stock) in respect of our common stock, the distribution generally will be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent it is paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Any portion of a distribution that exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits generally will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted tax basis of a non-U.S. holder’s common stock, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds a non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in our common stock, the excess will be treated as gain from the disposition of our common stock (the tax treatment of which is discussed below under “—Gain on Disposition of Common Stock”).

 

Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. However, dividends that are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a United States permanent establishment) are not subject to the withholding tax, provided certain certification and disclosure requirements are satisfied. Instead, such dividends are subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a United States person as defined under the Code. Any such effectively connected dividends received by a foreign corporation may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

 

56
 

 

A non-U.S. holder who wishes to claim the benefit of an applicable treaty rate and avoid backup withholding, as discussed below, for dividends will be required (a) to provide the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed IRS Form W-BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form) certifying under penalty of perjury that such holder is not a United States person as defined under the Code and is eligible for treaty benefits or (b) if our common stock is held through certain foreign intermediaries, to satisfy the relevant certification requirements of applicable United States Treasury regulations. Special certification and other requirements apply to certain non-U.S. holders that are pass-through entities rather than corporations or individuals.

 

A non-U.S. holder eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

 

Gain on Disposition of Common Stock

 

Subject to the discussion of backup withholding below, any gain realized by a non-U.S. holder on the sale or other disposition of our common stock generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless:

 

  the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business of the non-U.S. holder in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment of the non-U.S. holder);
  the non-U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of that disposition, and certain other conditions are met; or
  we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes and certain other conditions are met.

 

A non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet point immediately above will be subject to tax on the gain derived from the sale or other disposition in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a United States person as defined under the Code. In addition, if any non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet point immediately above is a foreign corporation, the gain realized by such non-U.S. holder may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. An individual non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet point immediately above will be subject to a 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty) tax on the gain derived from the sale or other disposition, which gain may be offset by United States source capital losses even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States.

 

Generally, a corporation is a “United States real property holding corporation” if the fair market value of its United States real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business (all as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). We believe we are not and do not anticipate becoming a “United States real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

Federal Estate Tax

 

Common Stock held by an individual non-U.S. holder at the time of death will be included in such holder’s gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes, unless an applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise.

 

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

 

Distributions paid to a non-U.S. holder and the amount of any tax withheld with respect to such distributions generally will be reported to the IRS. Copies of the information returns reporting such distributions and any withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.

 

57
 

 

A non-U.S. holder will not be subject to backup withholding on dividends received if such holder certifies under penalty of perjury that it is a non-U.S. holder (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that such holder is a United States person as defined under the Code), or such holder otherwise establishes an exemption.

 

Information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding will apply to the proceeds of a sale or other disposition of our common stock made within the United States or conducted through certain United States-related financial intermediaries, unless the beneficial owner certifies under penalty of perjury that it is a non-U.S. holder (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner is a United States person as defined under the Code), or such owner otherwise establishes an exemption.

 

Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

 

Additional Withholding Requirements

 

Under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as “FATCA”), a 30% U.S. federal withholding tax may apply to any dividends paid on our common stock to (i) a “foreign financial institution” (as specifically defined in the Code) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W-8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA, or (y) its compliance (or deemed compliance) with FATCA (which may alternatively be in the form of compliance with an intergovernmental agreement with the United States) in a manner which avoids withholding, or (ii) a “non-financial foreign entity” (as specifically defined in the Code) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W-8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA, or (y) adequate information regarding certain substantial United States beneficial owners of such entity (if any). If a dividend payment is both subject to withholding under FATCA and subject to the withholding tax discussed above under “—Dividends,” the withholding under FATCA may be credited against, and therefore reduce, such other withholding tax. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding these requirements and whether they may be relevant to your ownership and disposition of our common stock.

 

58
 

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling stockholders (i.e., the PIPE Investors) identified in this prospectus may offer, from time to time, shares of our Common Stock. We are registering such shares under the terms of the stockholder and registration rights agreement between us and the selling stockholder. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of our Common Stock by the selling stockholder. Registration of the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus does not mean, however, that those shares of common stock necessarily will be offered or sold.

 

The selling stockholders and its successors, including its transferees, may sell all or a portion of the shares of our Common Stock directly to purchasers or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders or the purchasers of the shares. These discounts, concessions or commissions as to any particular underwriter, broker-dealer or agent may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved.

 

The shares of our Common Stock may be sold in one or more transactions on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the shares may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market or in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market and in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions. Additionally, the selling stockholders may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 

  on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the shares may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, including Nasdaq;
  in the over-the-counter market;
  in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or services or in the over-the-counter market;
  through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether the options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;
  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
  block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
  purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
  an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
  a debt-for-equity exchange;
  privately negotiated transactions;
  settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part;
  broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
  a combination of any such methods of sale; and
  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

59
 

 

The selling stockholders may offer our Common Stock to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or through underwriters without an underwriting syndicate. If underwriters are used for the sale of our Common Stock, the securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account. The underwriters may resell the common stock in one or more transactions, including in negotiated transactions at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. In connection with any such underwritten sale of common stock, underwriters may receive compensation from the selling stockholder, for whom they may act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell Common Stock to or through dealers, and the dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Such compensation may be in excess of customary discounts, concessions or commissions.

 

If underwriters are used for the sale of our Common Stock, to the extent required by law, the names of the underwriters will be set forth in the prospectus or prospectus supplement used by the underwriters to sell those securities. In addition, the selling stockholders may use underwriters with whom we or the selling stockholders have a material relationship. We will describe the nature of such relationship in any applicable prospectus supplement naming the underwriter or underwriters.

 

If underwriters are used for the sale of our Common Stock, unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus or prospectus supplement relating to a particular offering of Common Stock, the obligations of any underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to customary conditions precedent, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities offered if any of the securities are purchased.

 

If underwriters are used for the sale of our Common Stock, in connection with such offering, the underwriters may advise us that they may engage in stabilizing transactions, which involves making bids for, purchasing and selling shares of common stock in the open market for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the common stock while this offering is in progress. These stabilizing transactions may include making short sales of the common stock, which involves the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares of common stock than they are required to purchase in this offering, and purchasing shares of common stock on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Common Stock in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. To the extent that the underwriters create a naked short position, they will purchase shares in the open market to cover the position.

 

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of the shares of our Common Stock pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement and to the activities of the selling stockholder. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. To the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the common stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the Common Stock.

 

In addition, any securities that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Securities Act or under Section 4(1) under the Securities Act may be sold under such rules rather than pursuant to this prospectus or a prospectus supplement.

 

The selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of our Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell short the shares and deliver Common Stock to close out short positions, or loan or pledge the shares to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these shares. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities that require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement. The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement.

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares of our common stock must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the shares may not be sold unless the shares are registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

There can be no assurance that the selling stockholders will sell any or all of the common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

At the time a particular offering of the shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the name of the selling stockholders, the aggregate amount of shares being offered by the selling stockholders and the terms of the offering, including, to the extent required, (1) the name or names of any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, (2) any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling stockholders, and (3) any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed to be paid to broker-dealers.

 

Pursuant to the PIPE Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act. Agents and underwriters will be entitled to indemnification by us and the selling stockholders against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which the agents or underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

 

Agents and underwriters and their respective affiliates may engage in transactions with, or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 — Description of the Merger

 

On April 25, 2022, Data Knights, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”), entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with OneMedNet (together with the Company and Merger Sub, the “Parties”) and Paul Casey, as seller representative (“Casey”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the Business Combination, the Parties will affect the merger of Merger Sub with and into OneMedNet, with OneMedNet continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”), as a result of which all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of OneMedNet shall be exchanged shares of the Class A Common Stock of the Company upon the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement. Per the Merger Agreement all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of OneMedNet shall be exchanged shares of the Class A Common Stock of Data Knights. OneMedNet’s shareholders collectively shall be entitled to receive from Data Knights, in the aggregate, a number of Data Knights’ securities with an aggregate value equal to $200,000,000, subject to certain adjustments.

 

Note 2 — Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of SEC Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” The historical financial information of Data Knights and OneMedNet include transaction accounting adjustments to illustrate the estimated effect of the Business Combination and certain other adjustments to provide relevant information necessary for an understanding of the Combined Entity upon consummation of the transactions described herein.

 

The Business Combination between Data Knights and OneMedNet under both the minimum and maximum redemption scenarios is expected to be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization with OneMedNet as the accounting acquirer.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using both the Minimum Redemption and Maximum Redemption scenarios with respect to the potential redemption of Public Shares into cash. The public stockholder redemptions are expected to be within the parameters described by the two scenarios. However, there can be no assurance regarding which scenario will be closest to the actual results.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the income tax effects of the transaction accounting adjustments as any change in the deferred tax balance would be offset by an increase in the valuation allowance given the Companies’ incurred losses during the historical period presented.

 

Note 3 — Transaction Accounting Adjustments to the Data Knights and OneMedNet Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2023

 

The transaction accounting adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2023 are as follows:

  (B) Reflects the payment of approximately $1.0 million of deferred underwriting fee and the remainder converted to stock at $10.89 per share.
     
  (C) Represents transaction costs totaling $1.0 million.

Total incurred  $2.2 million    1.1 million    1.1 million 
Net  $1.0 million    0.7 million    0.3 million

Note 4 — Transaction Accounting Adjustments to the Data Knights and OneMedNet Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023

(AA) Transaction costs.

 

(BB) Elimination of realized and unrealized gains in the trust.

Note 5 — Loss Per Share

 

Net loss per share calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding, and the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Business Combination assuming the shares were outstanding since January 1, 2021. As the Business Combination are being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Business Combination have been outstanding for the entire period presented. If the maximum number of shares are redeemed, this calculation is retroactively adjusted to eliminate such shares for the entire periods. Warrants have been excluded from the calculation as they are anti-dilutive.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of OneMedNet Corporation (formerly named Data Knights Acquisition Corp.) financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with its audited consolidated financial statements and the notes related thereto which are included elsewhere in this prospectus. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” “ Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

Company Overview

 

OneMedNet Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “OneMedNet”) together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, OneMedNet Solutions Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, OneMedNet Technologies (Canada) Inc., incorporated under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia whose functional currency is the Canadian dollar. All references in this prospectus to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “OneMedNet” include OneMedNet Corporation and both OneMedNet Solutions Corporation and OneMedNet Technologies (Canada) Inc., except that references to the “Company” “we,” or “us,” refer to OneMedNet Corporation f/k/a Data Knights Acquisition Corp.

 

We were originally incorporated in Delaware on February 8, 2021 under the name “Data Knights Acquisition Corp” as a special purpose acquisition company, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. On May 11, 2021, we consummated an initial public offering.

 

On November 7, 2023, following the approval at the special meeting of the shareholders of Data Knights Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation held on October 17, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”), Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Data Knights Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Data Knights”), consummated a merger (the “Merger”) with and into OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation), a Delaware corporation (“OneMedNet”) pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of April 25, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Data Knights, Merger Sub, OneMedNet, Data Knights, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor” or “Purchaser Representative”) in its capacity as the representative of the stockholders of Data Knights, and Paul Casey in his capacity as the representative of the stockholders of OneMedNet (“Seller Representative”). Accordingly, the Merger Agreement was adopted, and the Merger and other transactions contemplated thereby (collectively, the “Business Combination”) were approved and completed.

 

At the closing, on November 7, 2023, of the Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into OneMedNet with OneMedNet surviving the Merger, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Data Knights, and Data Knights changed its name to “OneMedNet Corporation.”

 

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Data Knights was treated as the acquired company and OneMedNet Corporation was treated as the acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes.

 

At the closing of the Merger, holders of Data Knights common stock automatically received common stock of OneMedNet, and holders of Data Knights warrants automatically received warrants of OneMedNet with substantively identical terms.

Business Overview

 

OneMedNet Corporation (“OneMedNet” or “OMN”) is a provider of leader in clinical imaging innovation and experienced curator of regulatory-grade Imaging Real-World DataTM or iRWDTM. Our innovation solutions connect healthcare providers and patients satisfying a crucial need within the Life Sciences field offering direct access to clinical images and associated contextual patient record. Our innovative technology proved the commercial and regulatory viability of imaging Real-World Data, a promising emerging market, and provides regulatory-grade image-centric iRWDTM that exactly matches our Life Science partners’ Case Selection Protocol.

 

OneMedNet was founded in 2006 to solve a deficiency in how clinical images were shared between healthcare providers. This resulted in our initial product BEAMTM image exchange that enabled the successful sharing of images for more than a decade. OneMedNet continued to innovate which responded to the demand for and utilization of Real-World Data, specifically data that focused on clinical images. We were able to leverage internal technological competencies along with a formidable healthcare provider installed database from our first product with BEAMTM to become the first RWD solution for Life Science companies with our launch of iRWDTM in 2019.

 

OneMedNet provides innovative solutions that unlock the significant value contained within clinical image archives. With a growing federated network of 90+ healthcare providers, OneMedNet has the immediate ability to quickly search and extensively curate multi-layer data from a Federated group of healthcare facilities. OneMedNet is ahead of the curve when it comes to providing fast and secure access to curated medical images. Initially, it was all about solving the diverse access needs of patient care providers. This focus systematically evolved to addressing the rapidly growing needs of image analysis and researchers, clinicians, regulators, scientists and more.

Beyond the economic opportunity, we believe we have a unique opportunity to affect a material positive impact on the lives of tens of millions of people, while also improving business productivity. First and foremost, OneMedNet’s iRWDTM offering plays a significant role in enabling Life Science companies to bring safer and more effective patient care to market sooner. Using our highly curated de-identified clinical data in our iRWDTM offering in healthcare providers’ product development, validation, and regulatory approval processes, they contribute to patient care advancements in more meaningful ways. Moreover, healthcare providers improve their product development and validation processes, which benefits all parties.

 

Significant documentation exists that shows that Real-World Data can provide expanded insights across broader and more representative patient populations and holds great potential for generating real-world evidence for designing and conducting confirmatory trials and answering questions that may not be addressed otherwise, according to a November 5, 2022 article by BMC Medical Research Methodology. For this reason, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) is instituting Real-World Data usage guidelines for regulatory approvals, which can supplement or supplant clinical trials that would be premised on the utilization of highly reliable and quality Real-World Data that strictly adheres to all of the very specific data stratification requirements.

 

The increasing accessibility of Real-World Data and the fast development of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques, together with rising costs and recognized limitations of traditional trials, has spurred great interest in the use of Real-World Data to enhance the efficiency of clinical research and discoveries and bridge the evidence gap between clinical research and practice. OneMedNet covers the complete value chain in imaging Real-World Data; it begins with our 10+ year federated network of providers and is supported by a multi-faceted data curation process managed by an expert in-house clinical team.

 

Additionally, we work hand-in-hand with our Life Science partners regarding the Case Selection Protocol and when required producing Case Report Forms for regulatory clearance. We are focused on delivering value in by supporting Life Science Advancements with OneMedNet’s iRWDTM that holds the key to unlocking boundless patient care advances. We unleash the power of research-grade image-centric iRWDTM that is highly curated to painstakingly meet every cohort requirement and stand up to all of the rigors of prospective clinical trials.

 

Today, life science companies, typically pharmaceutical companies, artificially intelligence (AI) developers, medical device businesses, and clinical research organizations share the same widespread challenge in obtaining insight-rich, high-quality patient data that explicitly matches their precise cohort specifications. A substantial portion of patient care diagnosis involves clinical imaging and approximately 90% of healthcare data, by size, is associated with imaging. Historically, much of imaging value has been derived from its initial review and further gains from the image archives have been very limited.

 

We help providers to “Unlock the Value in Imaging Archives”.TM By utilizing OneMedNet’s iRWDTM offering, providers can greatly improve their research efforts with streamlined data access. Health care providers can also accelerate life science patient care innovations by sharing de-identified data in a well-defined and de-identified and secure manner. In return for doing so, income is generated and applied to critical and possibly unfunded provider projects. OneMedNet believes that access to high quality data with advanced analytics and AI companions enable healthcare providers to make smarter decisions:

 

  Longitudinal patient and cohort data from imaging, laboratory and genomics can help to improve clinical decisions in single interventions, along patient pathways or across whole populations.

 

  Enterprise-wide, real-time, operational data is needed for better operational decisions targeting single asset and fleets, workflows and workforce or the overall enterprise performance.

 

  Consumer decision-making benefits from self-scheduling, health informatics or even predictive wellness coaches.

 

Our Business Model

 

Clinical images remain one of the most important tools used in delivering and improving patient care. For healthcare providers, timely access — no matter the source, directly impacts patient lives. OneMedNet first responded to this need with the BEAM™ Image Exchange solution offering a unique combination of simplicity, security, and low cost. Pharmaceutical companies, Imaging AI developers, Device organizations, Clinical Research Organizations, and Core Labs are all challenged to find the volume and specificity of imaging real world data to fulfill their respective needs.

 

OneMedNet’s innovative technology which Unlocks the Value in Imaging Data® for both providers and aforementioned industry members in our iRWD™ solution goes far beyond simply sourcing de-identified images. Frankly, other organizations can do that. OneMedNet has the clinical expertise to understand and anticipate the nuances and depth of the most stringent and specific imaging cohort request. By quickly tapping into our large federated healthcare provider network, we are able to adeptly move from request to fulfillment — with comprehensive regulatory-grade patient data. And if additional patient insights are required, OneMedNet is setup and ready to support progressive needs.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

OneMedNet Corporation (f/k/a Data Knights Acquisition Corp.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 8, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity for the period February 8, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2023, relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), and, since the closing of the initial public offering, the Company has entered into a merger agreement (as described below), and continued a search for a Business Combination candidate. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

 

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on May 6, 2021. On May 11, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is described in Note 3.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 585,275 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $5,852,750, which is described in Note 4.

 

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on May 11, 2021, an amount of $117,300,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) which may be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below.

 

Transaction costs of the Initial Public Offering amounted to $6,771,112, of which $2,300,000 was for underwriting fees paid at the time of the IPO, $4,025,000 was for deferred underwriting commissions, and $446,112 was for other offering costs.

 

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering $959,560 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account available for working capital purposes. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has $1,537 of cash and a working capital deficit of $2,943,835.

 

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing of a definitive agreement to enter a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully affect a Business Combination.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

On April 25, 2022, the Company, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”), entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with OneMedNet Corporation, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Target”, and together with the Company and Merger Sub, the “Parties”) and Paul Casey, as seller representative (“Casey”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the Business Combination, the Parties will effect the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Target, with the Target continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”), as a result of which all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Target shall be exchanged shares of the Class A Common Stock of the Company upon the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement.

 

On May 5, 2022, the Company extended the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination from May 11, 2022 to August 11, 2022 (the “First Extension”). The First Extension was the first of two three-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents.

 

On August 10, 2022, the Company extended the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination from August 11, 2022 to November 11, 2022 (the “Second Extension”). The Second Extension was the second of two three-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents.

 

On October 27, 2022, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement with the SEC in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by the stockholders of the Company at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held on November 11, 2022 (the “Special Meeting”).

 

On November 11, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. ET, the Company held a virtual special meeting of its stockholders. At the special meeting, Company stockholders entitle to vote at the special meeting cast their votes and approved the Trust Amendment Proposal, pursuant to which the Trust Agreement was amended to extend the date on which Continental must liquidate the Trust Account established in connection with the IPO if the Company has not completed its initial business combination, from November 11, 2022 to August 11, 2023 (or such earlier date after November 11, 2022, as determined by the Company Board). As a part of Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved amendments to its second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Extension Amendment”) and the investment management trust agreement (the “Trust Agreement”) between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (“Continental”), and the Company governing the trust account (the “Trust Account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering dated May 11, 2021 (the “Trust Amendment”), which together allow the Company to extend the deadline by which it must complete its initial business combination by up to nine one-month periods. In connection with each such extension, Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor, shall cause $0.045 per outstanding share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, or approximately $122,920, to be deposited in the Trust Account. On July 12, 2023, the Company elected to exercise its ninth of nine one-month extension to the Termination Date, which extended its deadline to complete its initial business combination to August 11, 2023, by depositing $0.045 per share for each Public Share outstanding after giving effect to the redemptions disclosed above, or approximately $122,920, was deposited in the Trust Account.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

In connection with the proposed Business Combination with the Target, the Company will provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Class A Common Stock upon the completion of such Business Combination in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve such Business Combination. In the event the proposed Business Combination with the Target is not consummated, in connection with an alternative proposed initial business combination, the Company will provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. In connection with the voting on the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal at the special meeting, holders of 8,768,456 shares of Class A Common Stock exercised their right to redeem those shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.42 per share, for an aggregate of approximately $91.4 million. Following the payment of the redemptions, the Trust Account had a balance of approximately $28.5 million.

 

On August 11, 2023, at 1:00 p.m. ET, the Company held a virtual special meeting of its stockholders. At the Special Meeting, the Company stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting cast their votes and approved the proposal (the “Trust Amendment Proposal”) to authorize the Company to enter into Amendment No. 2 to the Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to amend the Trust Agreement to allow the Company to extend beyond August 11, 2023 the date by which either the Company must have completed its initial business combination or Continental must liquidate the Trust Account established in connection with the IPO (the “Trust Account”). Following approval of the Trust Amendment Proposal by the Stockholders, the Company and Continental promptly entered into the Trust Agreement Amendment. At the Special Meeting, the Stockholders approved the Extension Amendment Proposal to amend Company’s Charter and authorized the Company to adopt and file the Amended Charter with the Secretary of State of Delaware, which the Company promptly filed following the Stockholders’ approval. The stockholders approved amendments to the Company’s charter and trust agreement allowing the Company to extend its termination date in a series of up to nine (9) one-month extensions until May 11, 2024 in exchange for depositing into its trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company the lesser of $75,000 or $0.045 per share for each public share outstanding (the “Extension Amount”). In connection with the voting on the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal at the Special Meeting, holders of 1,018,846 shares of Class A ordinary shares exercised the right to redeem such shares for cash.

 

On August 11, 2023, the Company deposited $75,000 into the Company’s trust account, allowing the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from August 11, 2023 to September 11, 2023 (the “Extension”). The Extension is the first of nine (9) one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has executed two one-month extensions, out of the nine, resulting in deposits of approximately $150,000 into the Trust Account.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

Based on the above, the Company will have until May 11, 2024 to consummate a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination on May 11, 2024 at the election of the Company subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of up $2,300,000 since the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($0.10 per unit), into the Trust Account, or as extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation) (the “Combination Period”), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00). There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Founder Shares (as defined below) or the shares of Class A Common Stock and the warrants that are included as components of the Private Placement Units. Such warrants will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

 

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.20 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the day of liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure its stockholders that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the Company’s officers or directors will indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

 

Business Combination with OneMedNet

 

On November 7, 2023, the Company consummated its initial business combination (the “Business Combination”) with OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation), a Delaware corporation (“OneMedNet”), pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of April 25, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), OneMedNet, Data Knights, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor” or “Purchaser Representative”) in its capacity as the representative of the stockholders of the Company, and Paul Casey in his capacity as the representative of the stockholders of OneMedNet (“Seller Representative”).

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

On July 22, 2022, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-266274) (the “Form S-4”, as amended on September 20, 2022, November 10, 2022, January 3, 2023, February 3, 2023, April 11, 2023, July 5, 2023, August 2, 2023, August 8, 2023, August 29, 2023 and September 21, 2023) with the SEC, which includes the proxy statement/prospectus/information statement distributed to holders of the Company’s ordinary shares in connection with the Company’s solicitation for proxies for the vote by the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Business Combination and other matters as described in the Form S-4. The Form S-4 was declared effective by the SEC on September 22, 2023, and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus/information statement was mailed to the Company’s shareholders of record on the record date for voting on the Business Combination. The Business Combination closed on November 13, 2023. Effective November 7, 2023, the Company’s units ceased trading, and effective November 8, 2023, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ONMD” and warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ONMDW.”

 

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP, whereby the Company is treated as the acquired company and OneMedNet is treated as the acquirer. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of OneMedNet issuing stock for the net assets of the Company, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of the Company were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Subsequent presentations of the results of operations presented for the period prior to the Business Combination will be for those of OneMedNet.

 

OneMedNet has been determined to be the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination based on the following predominate factors:

 

  OneMedNet’s existing stockholders have the greatest voting interest in the combined entity;
  OneMedNet has the ability to nominate a majority of the initial members of the OneMedNet Board;
  OneMedNet’s senior management is the senior management of the combined entity; and
  OneMedNet is the larger entity based on historical operating activity and has the larger employee base.

 

Going Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had cash held outside of the Trust Account of $1,537 and $30,870, respectively. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete our initial business combination. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31,2022, the Company had working capital deficit of $3,057,188 and $1,945,267, respectively.

 

The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of its IPO were satisfied through the proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of the Founder Shares and proceed from the promissory note from sponsor of $78,925, which was repaid upon closure of the IPO. Subsequent to the IPO, the Company’s liquidity will be satisfied through a portion of the net proceeds from IPO held outside of the Trust Account.

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had investments of $19,308,261 and $29,029,416 held in the Trust Account, respectively. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less taxes paid and deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial business combination. We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we withdraw $498,697 of interest earned on the Trust Account pay Delaware Franchise Tax and Income Tax. During the period ended December 31, 2022, we withdraw $299,601 interest earned on the Trust Account to pay Delaware Franchise Tax. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates the continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our financing and acquisition plans. Management plans to address this uncertainty during the period leading up to the business combination, however this cannot be guaranteed. The Company will have until May 11, 2024 to consummate a Business Combination. If our initial business combination is not consummated by May 11, 2024, less than one year after the date the financial statements are issued, then our existence will terminate, and we will distribute all amounts in the trust account. The Company intends to complete a business combination before the liquidation date and no adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the company be required to liquidate after such date. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate an initial business combination by May 11, 2024 and/or have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs. Based upon the above analysis, management determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with our initial Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Accounts to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Accounts would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units identical to the Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the financial statement. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into law. The IR Act provides for, among other measures, a new 1% U.S. federal excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from whom the shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased. For purposes of calculating the excise tax, however, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury Department”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out, and prevent the abuse or avoidance of, the excise tax. The IR Act applies only to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

Any redemption or other repurchase effected by us that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination or otherwise, may be subject to this excise tax. Whether and to what extent we would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination will depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, (ii) the nature and amount of any PIPE financing or other equity issuances in connection with the Business Combination (or any other equity issuances within the same taxable year of the Business Combination) and (iii) the content of any regulations and other guidance issued by the Treasury Department and/or the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by us and not by the redeeming holder, it could cause a reduction in the value of our stock. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a business Combination in the required time and redeem 100% of our public shares in accordance with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation) could be subject to the excise tax, in which case the amount that would otherwise be received by our stockholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.

 

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. The IR Act applies only to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022.

 

Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holders, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination.

 

At this time, it has been determined that the IR Act tax provisions would have an impact to the Company’s fiscal 2023 tax provision as there were redemptions by the public stockholders in August 2023; as a result, the Company recorded $113,353 excise tax liability as of September 30, 2023. The Company will continue to monitor for updates to the Company’s business along with guidance issued with respect to the IR Act to determine whether any adjustments are needed to the Company’s tax provision in future periods.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars and conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Emerging growth company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company had $1,537 and $30,870 in cash and no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Trust Account

 

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $117,300,000 ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement was held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which will be invested only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.

 

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

 

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred, presented as offering costs allocated to warrants in the consolidated statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Public Shares were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

 

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

 

The Company accounts for its shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of common stock (including shares of common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A Common Stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events.

 

On September 30, 2023, there are 585,275 shares of Class A Common Stock related to the Private Placement Units (Note 8) outstanding, which are not subject to redemption, and 1,712,698 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, which are subject to possible redemption.

 

If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The accretion or remeasurement is treated as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital).

As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Class A Common Stock reflected on the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

   For the Nine Months Ended 
   September 30, 
   2023   2022

Contingently redeemable Class A Common Stock - Ending Balance   19,209,844    120,133,869 

 

Net income (loss) per share

 

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and warrants issued as components of the Private Placement Units (the “Placement Warrants”) since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.

 

The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. The contractual formula utilized to calculate the redemption amount approximates fair value. The Class feature to redeem at fair value means that there is effectively only one class of stock. Changes in fair value are not considered a dividend for the purposes of the numerator in the earnings per share calculation. Net income per common share is computed by dividing the pro rata net income (loss) between the redeemable shares and the non-redeemable shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each of the periods. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the IPO since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive. The warrants are exercisable for 12,085,275 shares of common stock in the aggregate.

Concentration of credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. At September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, except warrant liabilities (See Note 9).

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the United States is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

 

Our effective tax rate was (12.15)% and 0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our effective tax rate was (30.10)% and 0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, due to transaction costs and the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, “Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options” (Subtopic 470-20) and “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

 

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 11,500,000 Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, $0.0001 par value, and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 9).

 

NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

 

Simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 585,275 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $5,852,750.

 

The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units, except that (a) the Private Placement Units and their component securities will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination except to permitted transferees and (b) the Placement Warrants, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, (i) may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis and (ii) will be entitled to registration rights.

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Introducing Advisor Agreement

 

On June 26, 2021, the Company entered into an introducing advisor agreement (the “Introducing Advisor Agreement”) with ARC Group Limited, the Company’s financial advisor (“ARC”), pursuant to which ARC will make strategic introductions to the Company of potential target companies and/or their subsidiaries, affiliates, or representatives (each an “Advisor Target”) who may be interested in potential business combinations with the Company. In consideration for ARC’s services under the Introducing Advisor Agreement, we agreed to (i) pay to ARC (a) a retainer of $50,000 upon execution of the Introducing Advisor Agreement and (b) a success fee of $100,000 upon the closing our initial business combination, and (ii) cause to be issued to ARC equity interests in the post-combination company representing a five-percent (5%) ownership interest in the post-combination company, if at any time prior to June 25, 2022 (the “Termination Date”), or within six (6) months after the consummation of an initial business combination or any financing with any Advisor Target or any affiliate of an Advisor Target (the “Equity Issuance”).

 

On March 22, 2022, the Company and ARC entered into the First Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, pursuant to which both parties agreed that the Company would pay to ARC an additional success fee equivalent to five percent (5%) on any PIPE that was brought by ARC in connection with the Company’s initial business combination upon the closing of the Company’s initial business combination.

 

On December 31, 2022, the Company and ARC entered into the Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, pursuant to which both parties agreed to extend the Termination Date to December 31, 2024, and to change the performance condition for the Equity Issuance from the closing of an initial business combination to the execution of a business combination agreement. On December 31, 2022, following the execution of the Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, the performance condition for the Equity Issuance was deemed to have been met, and ARC was issued 1,378,517 shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, up to 143,766 shares of which are subject to forfeiture if the public stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to any of the remaining outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

 

Founder Shares

 

On February 25, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,875,000 shares of Class B Common Stock (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. On February 25, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 15,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, 15,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and 5,000 shares to two of the Company’s independent directors. Following the determination of the Company’s third independent director, on March 23, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 5,000 shares to such independent director. The Founder Shares which the Sponsor and its permitted transferees will collectively own, on an as-converted basis, represent 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. In connection with the Introducing Advisors Agreement, on December 31, 2022, ARC was granted 1,378,517 shares of Class B common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, up to 143,766 of which are subject to forfeiture by ARC if the Company’s public shareholders exercise redemption rights with respect to any of outstanding shares of Class A common stock.

 

F-17

 

 

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)

 

The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or similar transaction that results in the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.

 

Promissory Note — Related Party

 

On February 8, 2021, the Sponsor committed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). The Note was non-interest bearing and was payable on the earlier of July 31, 2021 or the completion of the Initial Public Offering. On June 1, 2021, the $78,925 outstanding under the promissory note was repaid in full. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there is no amount outstanding under the promissory note.

 

Related Party Loans

 

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a Business Combination into units at a price of $10.00 per unit. The Units will be identical to the Private Placement Units. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there is $477,548 and $207,081 outstanding under the Working Capital Loans, respectively.

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)

 

The Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, the Company may, by resolution of the Company’s board if requested by the Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (for a total of up to 18 months to complete a Business Combination), subject to the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account as set out below. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, in order for the time available for the Company to consummate the initial Business Combination to be extended, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon five business days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account $1,150,000 since the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($0.10 per unit), on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each of the available three month extensions, providing a total possible Business Combination period of 18 months at a total payment value of $2,300,000 since the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($0.10 per unit) (the “Extension Loans”). Any such payments would be made in the form of non-interest-bearing loans. If the Company completes its initial Business Combination, the Company will, at the option of the Sponsor, repay the Extension Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company or convert a portion or all of the total loan amount into units at a price of $10.00 per unit, which units will be identical to the Private Placement Units. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company will repay such loans only from funds held outside of the Trust Account. Furthermore, the letter agreement among the Company and the Company’s officers, directors, and the Sponsor contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor will agree to waive its right to be repaid for such loans to the extent there is insufficient funds held outside of the Trust Account in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for the Company to complete the initial Business Combination. The public stockholders will not be afforded an opportunity to vote on the extension of time to consummate an initial Business Combination from 12 months to 18 months described above or redeem their shares in connection with such extensions. Pursuant to the foregoing, on May 5, 2022, the Company extended the date by which the Company had to consummate a business combination from May 11, 2022 to August 11, 2022. On August 10, 2022, the Company extended the date by which the Company had to consummate a business combination from August 11, 2022 to November 11, 2022.

 

As described in Note 1, on August 11, 2023, the Stockholders of the Company approved the Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment to allow the Company to extend the deadline by which it must complete its initial business combination by up to nine one-month periods from August 11, 2023. In connection with each such extension, Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor, caused approximately $75,000, deposited in the Trust Account in connection with the exercise of the monthly extension. In connection with each such extension, the Company will have until May 11, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination(see Note 10). On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there is $3,556,278 and $2,545,838 outstanding under the Extension Loan, respectively.

 

Administrative Services Arrangement

 

Commencing on the date of the prospectus and until completion of the Company’s Business Combination or liquidation, the Company may reimburse ARC Group Ltd., an affiliate of the Sponsor, up to an amount of $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative support. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we have incurred $30,000 in fees under this agreement, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we have incurred $90,000 in fees under this agreement, respectively.

NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Registration Rights

 

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on May 6, 2021, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units (including the securities contained therein), the units (including the securities contained therein) that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans, and any shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants and any shares of Class A Common Stock, warrants (and underlying Class A Common Stock) that may be issued upon conversion of the units issued as part of the working capital loans and Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the founder shares are entitled to registration rights. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

Underwriters Agreement

 

The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments at the Initial Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The aforementioned option was exercised on May 11, 2021.

 

The underwriter was paid a cash underwriting discount of two percent (2.00%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $2,300,000. In addition, the underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of three and a half percent (3.50%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $4,025,000. The deferred fee was placed in the Trust Account and will be paid in cash upon the closing of a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

 

Right of First Refusal

 

For a period beginning on May 7, 2021 and ending 12 months from the closing of a business combination, we have granted the underwriters a right of first refusal to act as lead-left book running manager and lead left manager for any and all future private or public equity, convertible and debt offerings during such period. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(E)(i), such right of first refusal shall not have a duration of more than three years from the effective date of our Registration Statement.

 

First Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement

 

On March 22, 2022, the Company and ARC entered into the First Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, pursuant to which both parties agreed that the Company would pay to ARC an additional success fee equivalent to five percent (5%) on any PIPE that was brought by ARC in connection with an initial business combination upon the closing of an initial business combination.

 

Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement

 

On December 31, 2022, the Company and ARC entered into the Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, pursuant to which both parties agreed to extend the Termination Date to December 31, 2024, and to change the performance condition for the Equity Issuance from the closing of an initial business combination to the execution of a business combination agreement. On December 31, 2022, following the execution of the Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, the performance condition for the Equity Issuance was deemed to have been met, and ARC was issued 1,378,517 shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, up to 143,766 shares of which are subject to forfeiture if the public stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to any of the remaining outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

 

F-20

 

 

NOTE 7. WARRANT LIABILITY

 

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

 

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A Common Stock is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

 

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days after the closing of its initial Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the registration statement or a new registration statement covering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, to cause such registration statement to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A Common Stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of the Company’s initial business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company 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 the Company’s shares of Class A Common Stock are 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, it may, at its 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 the Company so elects, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event it does not so elect, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

 

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

 

in whole and not in part;
   
at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;
   
upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
   
if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and certain issuances of Class A Common Stock and equity-linked securities) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing no earlier than the date the warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day before the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

 

F-21

 

 

NOTE 7. WARRANT LIABILITY (Continued)

 

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A Common Stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Window and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless. The Placement Warrants were identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Proposed Public Offering, except that the Placement Warrants and the Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

 

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A Common Stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A Common Stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Company’s initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of such initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

 

The Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Proposed Public Offering, except that the Placement Warrants and the Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

 

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2022, the Company accounted for the aggregate 12,085,275 warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the 11,500,000 Public Warrants and the 585,275 Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company will classify each warrant as a liability at its fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.

NOTE 8. STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

Preferred Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no preferred shares issued or outstanding.

 

Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 1,712,698 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding that were subject to possible redemption and 585,275 shares of non-redeemable Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding that were issued in connection with the private placement (Note 4).

 

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share. On February 25, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 15,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, 15,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and 5,000 shares to two of the Company’s independent directors. Following the determination of the Company’s third independent director, on March 23, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 5,000 shares to such independent director.

 

On December 31, 2022, ARC Group Limited, the Company’s Financial Advisor, was granted 1,378,517 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share, up to 143,766 of which are subject to forfeiture if the Company’s public stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to any of the Company’s remaining outstanding shares of Class A common stock.

 

Accordingly, at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 4,253,517 shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding.

 

Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, except as required by law.

 

The shares of Class B Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at the time of the Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like. In the case that additional shares of Class A Common Stock, or equity linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B Common Stock shall convert into shares of Class A Common Stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B Common Stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering plus all shares of Class A Common Stock and equity linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination (excluding any shares or equity linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination, and any private placement-equivalent units and its underlying securities issued to the Sponsor or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to the Company).

 

The Company may issue additional common stock or preferred stock to complete its Business Combination or under an employee incentive plan after completion of its Business Combination.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and derivative warrant liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques that the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

 

Description  (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
   September 30, 2023 
   Quoted Prices in   Significant Other   Significant Other 
   Active Markets   Observable Inputs   Unobservable Inputs 
Description  (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
Asset:               
Investments held in Trust Account  $19,308,261   $   $ 
                
Warrant Liabilities:               
Public Warrants  $575,000   $   $ 
Private Placement Warrants  $   $   $29,849 

 

Description  (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
   December 31, 2022 
   Quoted Prices in   Significant Other   Significant Other 
   Active Markets   Observable Inputs   Unobservable Inputs 
Description  (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
Asset:               
Investments held in Trust Account  $29,029,416   $   $ 
                
Warrant Liabilities:               
Public Warrants  $345,000   $   $ 
Private Placement Warrants  $   $   $17,558 

 

The Warrants are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Public Warrants were valued initially and at each reporting period that the warrants were not actively traded, using a Monte Carlo simulation. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Public Warrants were valued using the instrument’s publicly listed trading price, which is considered to be a Level 1 measurement due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market. Private Placement Warrants were valued using a Monte Carlo valuation model using level 3 inputs at initial valuation and as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, assets held in the Trust Account were invested solely in Morgan Stanley Bank cash, bank deposit program and money market fund and BlackRock US Treasury mutual fund of $19,308,261 and $29,029,416, respectively.

 

The Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within the consolidated statement of operations.

 

The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record a derivative liability upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Accordingly, the Company classified each warrant as a liability at its fair value and the warrants were allocated a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Units equal to its fair value determined by the Monte Carlo simulation. This liability is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The Company will reassess the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the warrants will be reclassified as of the date of the event that causes the reclassification.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

 

The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value of the Public warrants at each reporting period for its warrants that are not actively traded. Inherent in a Monte Carlo simulation are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock based on historical volatility of select peer companies that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero. On June 22, 2021, the Public Warrants surpassed the threshold waiting period to be publicly traded. Once publicly traded, the observable input qualifies the liability for treatment as a Level 1 liability. As such, as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company classified the Public Warrants as Level 1.

 

The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a Monte Carlo model are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its warrants based on implied volatility from the Company’s traded warrants and from historical volatility of select peer company’s common stock that matches the expected remaining life of the Warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.

 

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which a change in valuation technique or methodology occurs. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no transfers between levels.

 

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements inputs as their measurement dates:

 

   September 30, 2023   December 31, 2022 
   (Private Warrants)   (Private Warrants) 
Exercise price  $11.50   $11.50 
Share price  $11.26   $10.44 
Expected term (years)   5.61    5.12 
Probability of Acquisition   2.10%   2.75%
Volatility   7.9%   4.2%
Risk-free rate   4.50%   3.91%
Dividend yield (per share)  $0.00   $0.00 

 

The change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

 

   Private Warrants   Public Warrants   Total Warrant Liability 
Fair value as of December 31, 2022  $17,558   $345,000   $362,558 
Change in valuation inputs or other assumptions(1)   12,291    230,000    242,291 
Fair value as of September 30, 2023  $29,849   $575,000   $604,849 

 

   Private Warrants   Public Warrants   Total Warrant Liability 
Fair value as of December 31, 2021  $251,668   $4,600,000   $4,851,668 
Change in valuation inputs or other assumptions(1)   (117,640)   (2,645,000)   (2,762,640)
Fair value as of September 30, 2022  $134,028   $1,955,000   $2,089,028 

 

 

 

(1)Changes in valuation inputs or other assumptions are recognized in the change in fair value of warrant liability in the consolidated statement of operations.

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued, the Company has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identified any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements other than as described below.

 

On October 12, 2023, the Company elected to exercise its eighth of third one-month extension to the Termination Date, which extended its deadline to complete its initial business combination to November 11, 2023, by depositing $75,000 into the Trust Account.

 

On October 17, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Stockholders”) in lieu of the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 25, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor, OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation), a Delaware corporation, (“OneMedNet”), and Paul Casey, as seller representative (such transactions, collectively, the “Business Combination”). At the Special Meeting, the Stockholders were asked to consider and vote on the proposals identified in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 21, 2023 (the “Definitive Proxy”). Proposals 1 through 7 set forth below were approved:

 

-Proposal 1: To approve an amendment to the Second Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) effective prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, to remove from the Charter the redemption limitation contained under Section 9.2(a) preventing the Company from closing a business combination if it would have less than $5,000,0001 of net tangible assets (the “NTA Proposal”).
   
-Proposal 2: To approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Business Combination Proposal”).
   
-Proposal 3: To approve, for purposes of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(a) and (b), the issuance of more than 20% of the issued and outstanding Class A common stock and the resulting change in control in connection with the Business Combination (the “Nasdaq Proposal”).

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Continued)

 

-Proposal 4: To approve the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which shall become effective upon the closing of the Business Combination (the “Charter Amendment Proposal”), including (i) the addition of a supermajority voting requirement to amend the Surviving Corporation’s Bylaws, and (ii) the addition of a supermajority voting requirement to amend Articles V (Board of Directors), VI (Stockholders), VII (Liability and Indemnification; Corporate Opportunity), VIII (Business Combinations), IX (Exclusive Forum), and Article X (Amendments) to the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
   
-Proposal 4A: To approve the addition to Company’s Certificate of Incorporation of a super majority voting requirement to amend the Surviving Corporation’s Bylaws (the “Bylaw Amendment Requirement”), as contained in the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
   
-Proposal 4B: To approve the addition to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation of a super majority voting requirement (the “Article Amendment Requirement”) to amend Articles V (Board of Directors), VI (Stockholders), VII (Liability and Indemnification; Corporate Opportunity), VIII (Business Combinations), IX (Exclusive Forum), and Article X (Amendments) of the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
   
-Proposal 5: To elect eight directors to serve on the Company’s board of directors following the consummation of the Business Combination until the 2024 annual meeting of Stockholders, in the case of Class I directors, the 2025 annual meeting of Stockholders, in the case of Class II directors, and the 2026 annual meeting of Stockholders, in the case of Class III directors, and, in each case, until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified (the “Director Election Proposal”).
   
-Proposal 6: To approve the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan Proposal”).
-Proposal 7: To approve adjourning the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if it is determined by the Company that more time is necessary or appropriate to approve one or more Proposals at the Special Meeting (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

 

In connection with the Special Meeting, certain Stockholders (the “Redeeming Stockholders”) holding 1,614,148 shares of Class A Common Stock (after giving effect to withdrawals of redemptions) exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (“Continental”) in the trust account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”). As a result, approximately $17.9 million (approximately $11.12 per share) will be removed from the Trust Account to pay the Redeeming Stockholders, and approximately $1.1 million will remain in the Trust Account.

 

On November 7, 2023, the Company consummated the Business Combination with OneMedNet pursuant to Merger Agreement, following the approval of the Business Combination at the Special Meeting. On November 7, 2023, at the closing of the Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into OneMedNet with OneMedNet surviving the Merger, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company changed its name to “OneMedNet Corporation.”

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Section 102 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that no director of the Company shall be personally liable to it or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability, except to the extent that the DGCL prohibits the elimination or limitation of liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duty.

 

Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or a person serving at the request of the corporation for another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise in related capacities against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding to which he was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, ending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

 

II-1
 

 

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide indemnification for our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. We will indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of us) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at our request as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (all such persons being referred to as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if such Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interests, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws will provide that we will indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is a party to an action or suit by or in the right of us to procure a judgment in our favor by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at our request as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and, to the extent permitted by law, amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, and any appeal therefrom, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interests, except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to us, unless a court determines that, despite such adjudication but in view of all of the circumstances, he or she is entitled to indemnification of such expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any Indemnitee has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, he or she will be indemnified by us against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. Expenses must be advanced to an Indemnitee under certain circumstances.

 

We have entered into separate indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers. Each indemnification agreement provide, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws against any and all expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement of any claim. The indemnification agreements provide for the advancement or payment of all expenses to the indemnitee and for the reimbursement to us if it is found that such indemnitee is not entitled to such indemnification under applicable law and our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws.

 

We also have a general liability insurance policy that covers certain liabilities of directors and officers of our corporation arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

 

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

On June 28, 2023, the Company (formerly as Data Knights Acquisition Corp) and OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly as OneMedNet Corporate) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with certain investors (collectively referred to herein as the “Purchasers”) for PIPE financing in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,595,744.70 and the purchase price of $1.5 million.

 

Effective immediately prior to the Closing on September 7, 2023, as provided under the SPA, the Company issued and sold to each of the Purchasers, a new series of senior secured convertible notes (the “PIPE Notes”), which are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the Purchasers election at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $10.00 per share, and (ii) 92.5% of the lowest volume weighted average trading price for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date. We deemed the offer, sale and issuance of such securities to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, including Regulation D and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder, relative to transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering.

  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

  (iii)

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-1 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement;

 

  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

  (4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser: each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use; and

 

  (5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

  (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

  (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

  (iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

  (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Section 4.1 The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock, each with a par value of $0.0001 per share, which the Corporation is authorized to issue is 101,000,000 shares, consisting of (a) 100,000,000 shares of common stock (the “Common Stock”), (b) 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”).

 

 
 

 

Section 4.2 Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more classes or series. The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) is hereby authorized to provide from time to time by resolution or resolutions for the creation and issuance, out of the authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock, of one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock by filing a certificate (a “Certificate of Designation”) pursuant to the DGCL, setting forth such resolution and, with respect to each such series, establishing the designation of such class or series and the number of shares to be included in such class or series and fixing the voting powers (full or limited, or no voting power), preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, of the shares of each such class or series. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the resolution or resolutions providing for the establishment of any class or series of Preferred Stock may, to the extent permitted by law, provide that such class or series shall be superior to, rank equally with or be junior to the Preferred Stock of any other class or series. The powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each class or series of Preferred Stock, and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, if any, may be different from those of any and all other classes or series at any time outstanding. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the resolution or resolutions providing for the establishment of any class or series of Preferred Stock, no vote of the holders of shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock shall be a prerequisite to the issuance of any shares of any class or series of the Preferred Stock so authorized in accordance with this Third Amended and Restated Certificate. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Designation establishing a class or series of Preferred Stock, the Board of Directors may, by resolution or resolutions, increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such class or series then outstanding) the number of shares of such class or series and, if the number of shares of such class or series shall be so decreased, the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status that they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such class or series.

 

Section 4.3 The Corporation has the authority to create and issue rights, warrants, and options entitling the holders thereof to purchase shares of any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock or other securities of the Corporation, and such rights, warrants and options shall be evidenced by or in instrument(s) approved by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is empowered to set the exercise price, duration, times for exercise and other terms and conditions of such rights, warrants or options; provided, however, that the consideration to be received for any shares of capital stock subject thereto may not be less than the par value thereof.

 

Section 4.4

 

(a) Except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (or any Certificate of Designation made hereunder), the holders of Common Stock shall exclusively possess all voting power with respect to the Corporation. The holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each such share on each matter properly submitted to the stockholders on which the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to vote. The holders of shares of the Common Stock shall at all times vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation.

 

(b) Except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (or any Certificate of Designation made hereunder), at any annual or special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation, the holders of the Common Stock shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters properly submitted to a vote of the stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (or any Certificate of Designation made hereunder), the holders of the Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (or any Certificate of Designation made hereunder) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding class or series of the Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected class or series of Preferred Stock are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such class or series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (or any Certificate of Designation made hereunder) or the DGCL.

 

(c) Subject to applicable law and the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding class or series of the Preferred Stock, the holders of the shares of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions (payable in cash, property or capital stock of the Corporation) when, as and if declared thereon by the Board from time to time out of any assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor, and shall share equally on a per share basis in such dividends and distributions.

 

(d) Subject to applicable law and the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding class or series of the Preferred Stock, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Corporation, the holders of the shares of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive all the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of the Common Stock held by them.

 

 
 

 

ARTICLE V

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

 

For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation it is further provided that:

 

Section 5.1

 

(a) The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation shall be vested in the Board of Directors. The number of directors of the Corporation shall be nine (9), which number may be increased or decreased by one or more resolutions adopted from time to time by the Board of Directors, subject to Sections 5.1(c) and 5.1(d). The Board of Directors shall be classified, with respect to the term for which the directors hold office, into three classes, one class serving for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2023, the second class serving for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2024, and the third class serving for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2025. At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors elected to succeed those directors whose terms expire shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after their election. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the directors elected to each class shall hold office until their successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal. If the number of directors is hereafter changed, any newly created directorships or decrease in directorships shall be so apportioned among the classes as to make all classes as nearly equal in number as is practicable, provided that no decrease in the number of directors constituting the entire Board shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. No reduction in the number of directors shall cause the removal of any director from office prior to the expiration of his or her term.

 

(b) Except as may otherwise be provided in the terms of any Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation, the Board of Directors or any individual director may be removed from office at any time but only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of voting stock of the Corporation with the power to vote at an election of directors (the “Voting Stock”) and, in addition to and without limitation of the foregoing only for cause.

 

(c) Except as may otherwise be provided in the terms of any Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation and subject to Section 5.1(d) below, any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, retirement, removal or other causes and any newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors shall, unless the Board of Directors determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by the stockholders, and except as otherwise provided by law, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and shall not be filled by the stockholders. Any director appointed in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of the vacancy to which the director shall have been appointed and until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, disqualification, retirement, or removal.

 

(d) Effective as of the date of filing of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate, the Board of Directors of the Corporation shall consist of nine (9) members, constituted as follows:

 

(i) in the director class whose term expires at the annual meeting held in 2023, three (3) directors nominated by OneMedNet Technologies Corporation, f/k/a OneMedNet Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“OneMedNet Technologies”), one of whom shall qualify as an independent director under the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market (an “Independent Director”);

 

(ii) in the director class whose term expires at the annual meeting held in 2024, (A) two (2) directors designated by OneMedNet Technologies, one (1) of whom shall be an Independent Director, and (B) one (1) director designated by Data Knights, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the Corporation’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”), who shall be an Independent Director; and

 

(iii) in the director class whose term expires at the annual meeting held in 2025, (A) two (2) directors designated by OneMedNet Technologies, one (1) of whom shall be an Independent Director, and (B) one (1) director designated by the Sponsor.

 

 
 

 

Section 5.2

 

(a) In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, amend, alter, or repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation. In addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by applicable law or by this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Certificate of Designation in respect of one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock), the adoption, amendment or repeal of the Bylaws of the Corporation by the stockholders of the Corporation shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of the Voting Stock, voting together as a single class; provided that no Bylaws hereafter adopted by the stockholders of the Corporation shall invalidate any prior act of the Board of Directors that would have been valid if such Bylaws had not been adopted.

 

(b) The directors of the Corporation need not be elected by written ballot unless the Bylaws so provide.

 

ARTICLE VI

STOCKHOLDERS

 

Section 6.1 Subject to the special rights of the holders of one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation, and the taking of any action by written consent of the stockholders in lieu of a meeting of the stockholders is specifically denied.

 

Section 6.2 Subject to the special rights of the holders of one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock, special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may be called, for any purpose or purposes as is a proper matter for stockholder action under the DGCL, by (i) the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, (ii) the Chief Executive Officer, or (iii) the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time any such resolution is presented to the Board of Directors for adoption). Such special meetings may not be called by stockholders or any other person or persons.

 

Section 6.3 Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of other business proposed to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation.

 

ARTICLE VII

LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION; CORPORATE OPPORTUNITY

 

Section 7.1 To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as the same exists or as may hereafter be amended, a director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. If the DGCL is amended after approval by the stockholders of this Article VII to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as so amended, automatically and without further action, upon the date of such amendment.

 

Section 7.2 The Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall indemnify and advance expenses to any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action, suit or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she, or his or her testator or intestate, is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or any predecessor of the Corporation, or serves or served at any other enterprise as a director or officer at the request of the Corporation or any predecessor to the Corporation.

 

Section 7.3 The Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by law, may indemnify and advance expenses to any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action, suit or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she, or his or her testator or intestate, is or was an employee or agent of the Corporation or any predecessor of the Corporation, or serves or served at any other enterprise as an employee or agent at the request of the Corporation or any predecessor to the Corporation.

 

 
 

 

Section 7.4 Neither any amendment nor repeal of this Article VII, nor the adoption by amendment of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate of any provision inconsistent with this Article VII, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article VII in respect of any matter occurring, or any action or proceeding accruing or arising (or that, but for this Article VII, would accrue or arise) prior to such amendment or repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision.

 

ARTICLE VIII

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

 

Section 8.1 The Corporation will be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL.

 

Section 8.2 Notwithstanding Section 8.1, the Corporation shall not engage in any business combination (as defined below), at any point in time at which the Corporation’s common stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, with any interested stockholder (as defined below) for a period of three years following the time that such stockholder of the Corporation became an interested stockholder, unless:

 

(a) prior to such time, the Board approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, or

 

(b) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock (as defined below) of the Corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned by (i) persons who are directors and also officers of the Corporation or (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer, or

 

(c) at or subsequent to such time, the business combination is approved by the Board and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 662∕3% of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

 

Section 8.3 For the purposes of this Article VIII:

 

(a) “affiliate” means a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, another person.

 

(b) “associate,” when used to indicate a relationship with any person, means: (i) any corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity of which such person is a director, officer or partner or is, directly or indirectly, the owner of 20% or more of any class of voting stock; (ii) any trust or other estate in which such person has at least a 20% beneficial interest or as to which such person serves as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity; and (iii) any relative or spouse of such person, or any relative of such spouse, who has the same residence as such person.

 

(c) “business combination,” when used in reference to the Corporation and any interested stockholder, means:

 

(i) any merger or consolidation of the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation (A) with the interested stockholder, or (B) with any other corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity if the merger or consolidation is caused by the interested stockholder and as a result of such merger or consolidation Article XI is not applicable to the surviving entity;

 

(ii) any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions), except proportionately as a stockholder of the Corporation, to or with the interested stockholder, whether as part of a dissolution or otherwise, of assets of the Corporation or of any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation which assets have an aggregate market value equal to 10% or more of either the aggregate market value of all the assets of the Corporation determined on a consolidated basis or the aggregate market value of all the outstanding stock of the Corporation;

 

(iii) any transaction which results in the issuance or transfer by the Corporation or by any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation of any stock of the Corporation or of such subsidiary to the interested stockholder, except: (A) pursuant to the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into stock of the Corporation or any such subsidiary which securities were outstanding prior to the time that the interested stockholder became such; (B) pursuant to a merger under Section 251(g) of the DGCL; (C) pursuant to a dividend or distribution paid or made, or the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into stock of the Corporation or any such subsidiary which security is distributed, pro rata to all holders of a class or series of stock of the Corporation subsequent to the time the interested stockholder became such; (D) pursuant to an exchange offer by the Corporation to purchase stock made on the same terms to all holders of said stock; or (E) any issuance or transfer of stock by the Corporation; provided, however, that in no case under items (C)-(E) of this subsection (iii) shall there be an increase in the interested stockholder’s proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the Corporation or of the voting stock of the Corporation (except as a result of immaterial changes due to fractional share adjustments);

 

 
 

 

(iv) any transaction involving the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation which has the effect, directly or indirectly, of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series, or securities convertible into the stock of any class or series, of the Corporation or of any such subsidiary which is owned by the interested stockholder, except as a result of immaterial changes due to fractional share adjustments or as a result of any purchase or redemption of any shares of stock not caused, directly or indirectly, by the interested stockholder; or

 

(v) any receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit, directly or indirectly (except proportionately as a stockholder of the Corporation), of any loans, advances, guarantees or pledges (other than those expressly permitted in subsections (i)-(iv) above) provided by or through the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary.

 

(d) “control,” including the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with,” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting stock, by contract, or otherwise. A person who is the owner of 20% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity shall be presumed to have control of such entity, in the absence of proof by a preponderance of the evidence to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a presumption of control shall not apply where such person holds voting stock, in good faith and not for the purpose of circumventing this Article VIII, as an agent, bank, broker, nominee, custodian or trustee for one or more owners who do not individually or as a group have control of such entity.

 

(e) “interested stockholder” means any person (other than the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation) that (i) is the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation, or (ii) is an affiliate or associate of the Corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation at any time within the three year period immediately prior to the date on which it is sought to be determined whether such person is an interested stockholder, and the affiliates and associates of such person; provided, however, that the term “interested stockholder” shall not include (A) the Principal Stockholder or Principal Stockholder Transferees or any “group” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) that includes any Principal Stockholder or Principal Stockholder Transferee or (B) any person whose ownership of shares in excess of the 15% limitation set forth herein is the result of any action taken solely by the Corporation; provided that such person specified in this clause (B) shall be an interested stockholder if thereafter such person acquires additional shares of voting stock of the Corporation, except as a result of further corporate action not caused, directly or indirectly, by such person. For the purpose of determining whether a person is an interested stockholder, the voting stock of the Corporation deemed to be outstanding shall include stock deemed to be owned by the person through application of the definition of “owner” below but shall not include any other unissued stock of the Corporation which may be issuable pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, or upon exercise of conversion rights, warrants or options, or otherwise.

 

(f) “owner,” including the terms “own” and “owned,” when used with respect to any stock, means a person that individually or with or through any of its affiliates or associates:

 

 
 

 

(i) beneficially owns such stock, directly or indirectly; or

 

(ii) has (A) the right to acquire such stock (whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, warrants or options, or otherwise; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed the owner of stock tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by such person or any of such person’s affiliates or associates until such tendered stock is accepted for purchase or exchange; or (B) the right to vote such stock pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed the owner of any stock because of such person’s right to vote such stock if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such stock arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given in response to a proxy or consent solicitation made to ten or more persons; or

 

(iii) has any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except voting pursuant to a revocable proxy or consent as described in item (B) of subsection (ii) above), or disposing of such stock with any other person that beneficially owns, or whose affiliates or associates beneficially own, directly or indirectly, such stock.

The Corporation may, in addition to its registered office in the State of Delaware, have such other offices and places of business, both within and outside the State of Delaware, as the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) may from time to time determine or as the business and affairs of the Corporation may require.

 

ARTICLE II

STOCKHOLDERS MEETINGS

 

Section 2.1. Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held at such place, either within or without the State of Delaware, and time and on such date as shall be determined by the Board and stated in the notice of the meeting, provided that the Board may in its sole discretion determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication pursuant to Section 9.5(a). At each annual meeting, the stockholders entitled to vote on such matters shall elect those directors of the Corporation to fill any term of a directorship that expires on the date of such annual meeting and may transact any other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.

 

Section 2.2. Special Meetings. Subject to the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of the preferred stock of the Corporation (“Preferred Stock”), and to the requirements of applicable law, special meetings of stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, may be called only by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, or the Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Board, and may not be called by any other person. Special meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place, either within or without the State of Delaware, and at such time and on such date as shall be determined by the Board and stated in the Corporation’s notice of the meeting, provided that the Board may in its sole discretion determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication pursuant to Section 9.5(a).

 

Section 2.3. Notices. Written notice of each stockholders meeting stating the place, if any, date, and time of the meeting, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting and the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, shall be given in the manner permitted by Section 9.3 to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, by the Corporation not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting unless otherwise required by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). If said notice is for a stockholders meeting other than an annual meeting, it shall in addition state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, and the business transacted at such meeting shall be limited to the matters so stated in the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto). Any meeting of stockholders as to which notice has been given may be postponed, and any meeting of stockholders as to which notice has been given may be cancelled, by the Board upon public announcement (as defined in Section 2.7(c)) given before the date previously scheduled for such meeting.

 

 

 

 

Section 2.4. Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation, as the same may be amended or restated from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) or these By Laws, the presence, in person or by proxy, at a stockholders meeting of the holders of shares of outstanding capital stock of the Corporation representing a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting, except that when specified business is to be voted on by a class or series of stock voting as a class, the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of such class or series shall constitute a quorum of such class or series for the transaction of such business. If a quorum shall not be present or represented by proxy at any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, the chairman of the meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner provided in Section 2.6 until a quorum shall attend. The stockholders present at a duly convened meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation or to another corporation, if a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation is held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation, shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation or any such other corporation to vote shares held by it in a fiduciary capacity.

 

Section 2.5. Voting of Shares.

 

(a) Voting Lists. The Secretary of the Corporation (the “Secretary”) shall prepare, or shall cause the officer or agent who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation to prepare and make, at least 10 days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders of record entitled to vote at such meeting; provided, however, that if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than 10 days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address and the number and class of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Nothing contained in this Section 2.5(a) shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If a meeting of stockholders is to be held solely by means of remote communication as permitted by Section 9.5(a), the list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of meeting. The stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list required by this Section 2.5(a) or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

 

(b) Manner of Voting. At any stockholders meeting, every stockholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy. If authorized by the Board, the voting by stockholders or proxy holders at any meeting conducted by remote communication may be effected by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission (as defined in Section 9.3), provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which the Corporation can determine that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder or proxy holder. The Board, in its discretion, or the chairman of the meeting of stockholders, in such person’s discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

 

(c) Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. Proxies need not be filed with the Secretary until the meeting is called to order, but shall be filed with the Secretary before being voted. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, either of the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority. No stockholder shall have cumulative voting rights.

 

 

 

 

(i) A stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy. Execution may be accomplished by the stockholder or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such writing or causing such person’s signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

 

(ii) A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of an electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder. Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used; provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

 

(d) Required Vote. Subject to the rights of the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock, voting separately by class or series, to elect directors pursuant to the terms of one or more series of Preferred Stock, at all meetings of stockholders at which a quorum is present, the election of directors shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. All other matters presented to the stockholders at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be determined by the vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon, unless the matter is one upon which, by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these By Laws or applicable stock exchange rules, a different vote is required, in which case such provision shall govern and control the decision of such matter.

 

(e) Inspectors of Election. The Board may, and shall if required by law, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more persons as inspectors of election, who may be employees of the Corporation or otherwise serve the Corporation in other capacities, to act at such meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof and to make a written report thereof. The Board may appoint one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspectors of election or alternates are appointed by the Board, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before discharging his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspectors shall ascertain and report the number of outstanding shares and the voting power of each; determine the number of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots; count all votes and ballots and report the results; determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors; and certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting and their count of all votes and ballots. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election. Each report of an inspector shall be in writing and signed by the inspector or by a majority of them if there is more than one inspector acting at such meeting. If there is more than one inspector, the report of a majority shall be the report of the inspectors.

 

Section 2.6. Adjournments. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may be adjourned by the chairman of the meeting, from time to time, whether or not there is a quorum, to reconvene at the same or some other place. Notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the date, time, and place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the stockholders, or the holders of any class or series of stock entitled to vote separately as a class, as the case may be, may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting in accordance with Section 9.2, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

 

 

 

 

Section 2.7. Advance Notice for Business.

 

(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders. No business may be transacted at an annual meeting of stockholders, other than business that is either (i) specified in the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board, (ii) otherwise properly brought before the annual meeting by or at the direction of the Board or (iii) otherwise properly brought before the annual meeting by any stockholder of the Corporation (x) who is a stockholder of record entitled to vote at such annual meeting on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 2.7(a) and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such annual meeting and (y) who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.7(a). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.7(a) to the contrary, only persons nominated for election as a director to fill any term of a directorship that expires on the date of the annual meeting pursuant to Section 3.5 will be considered for election at such meeting.

 

(i) In addition to any other applicable requirements, for business (other than nominations) to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, such stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary and such business must otherwise be a proper matter for stockholder action. Subject to Section 2.7(a)(iii), a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary with respect to such business, to be timely, must be received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day before the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day before the meeting and not later than the later of (x) the close of business on the 90th day before the meeting or (y) the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the annual meeting is first made by the Corporation. The public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting shall not commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described in this Section 2.7(a).

 

(ii) To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary with respect to any business (other than nominations) must set forth as to each such matter such stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (A) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event such business includes a proposal to amend these By Laws, the language of the proposed amendment) and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (B) the name and record address of such stockholder and the name and address of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, (C) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and by the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, (D) a description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder, (E) any material interest of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made in such business and (F) a representation that such stockholder (or a qualified representative of such stockholder) intends to appear in person or by proxy at the annual meeting to bring such business before the meeting.

 

(iii) The foregoing notice requirements of this Section 2.7(a) shall be deemed satisfied by a stockholder as to any proposal (other than nominations) if the stockholder has notified the Corporation of such stockholder’s intention to present such proposal at an annual meeting in compliance with Rule 14a-8 (or any successor thereof) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and such stockholder has complied with the requirements of such Rule for inclusion of such proposal in a proxy statement prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for such annual meeting. No business shall be conducted at the annual meeting of stockholders except business brought before the annual meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.7(a), provided, however, that once business has been properly brought before the annual meeting in accordance with such procedures, nothing in this Section 2.7(a) shall be deemed to preclude discussion by any stockholder of any such business. If the Board or the chairman of the annual meeting determines that any stockholder proposal was not made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.7(a) or that the information provided in a stockholder’s notice does not satisfy the information requirements of this Section 2.7(a), such proposal shall not be presented for action at the annual meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7(a), if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to present the proposed business, such proposed business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such matter may have been received by the Corporation.

 

 

 

 

(iv) In addition to the provisions of this Section 2.7(a), a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth herein. Nothing in this Section 2.7(a) shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

 

(b) Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting. Nominations of persons for election to the Board may be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting only pursuant to Section 3.5.

 

(c) Public Announcement. For purposes of these By Laws, “public announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (or any successor thereto).

 

Section 2.8. Conduct of Meetings. The chairman of each annual and special meeting of stockholders shall be the Chairman of the Board or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the Chairman of the Board, any Chief Executive Officer (if he or she shall be a director) or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act of a Chief Executive Officer or if a Chief Executive Officer is not a director, the President (if he or she shall be a director) or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the President or if the President is not a director, such other person as shall be appointed by the Board. The date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be announced at the meeting by the chairman of the meeting. The Board may adopt such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with these By Laws or such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board, the chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene and to adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (a) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (b) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (c) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the chairman of the meeting shall determine; (d) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (e) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure. The secretary of each annual and special meeting of stockholders shall be the Secretary or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary so appointed to act by the chairman of the meeting. In the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the Secretary and all Assistant Secretaries, the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

 

Section 2.9. Consents in Lieu of Meeting. Unless otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, until the Corporation consummates an initial public offering (“Offering”), any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, and shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

 

 

 

 

Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent, and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required by this section and the DGCL to the Corporation, written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders entitled to vote to take action are delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

 

ARTICLE III

Section 3.1. Powers; Number. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board, which may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By Laws required to be exercised or done by the stockholders. Directors need not be stockholders or residents of the State of Delaware. Subject to the Certificate of Incorporation, the number of directors shall be fixed exclusively by resolution of the Board. Each director shall hold office until a successor is duly elected and qualified or until the director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification, or removal.

 

Section 3.2. Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Any newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the authorized number of directors and any vacancies occurring in the Board of Directors, may be filled by the affirmative votes of a majority of the remaining members of the Board of Directors, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. A director so elected shall be elected to hold office until the earlier of the expiration of the term of office of the director whom he or she has replaced, a successor is duly elected and qualified, or the earlier of such director’s death, resignation, or removal.

 

Section 3.3. Resignations. Any director may resign at any time by notice given in writing or by electronic transmission to the Corporation. Such resignation shall take effect at the date of receipt of such notice by the Corporation or at such later effective date or upon the happening of an event or events as is therein specified.

 

Section 3.4. Removals. Except as prohibited by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the stockholders holding a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors may remove any director from office with or without cause.

 

Section 3.5. Advance Notice for Nomination of Directors.

 

(a) Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors of the Corporation, except as may be otherwise provided by the terms of one or more series of Preferred Stock with respect to the rights of holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock to elect directors. Nominations of persons for election to the Board at any annual meeting of stockholders, or at any special meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors as set forth in the Corporation’s notice of such special meeting, may be made (i) by or at the direction of the Board or (ii) by any stockholder of the Corporation (x) who is a stockholder of record entitled to vote in the election of directors on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 3.5 and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting and (y) who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 3.5.

 

(b) In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a stockholder, such stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must be received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation (i) in the case of an annual meeting, not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day before the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day before the meeting and not later than the later of (x) the close of business on the 90th day before the meeting or (y) the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was first made by the Corporation; and (ii) in the case of a special meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors, not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the special meeting is first made by the Corporation. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or special meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described in this Section 3.5.

 

 

 

 

(c) Notwithstanding anything in paragraph (b) to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board at an annual meeting is greater than the number of directors whose terms expire on the date of the annual meeting and there is no public announcement by the Corporation naming all of the nominees for the additional directors to be elected or specifying the size of the increased Board before the close of business on the 90th day prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders, a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 3.5 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for the additional directorships created by such increase that are to be filled by election at such annual meeting, if it shall be received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the date on which such public announcement was first made by the Corporation.

 

(d) To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must set forth (i) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director (A) the name, age, business address and residence address of the person, (B) the principal occupation or employment of the person, (C) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned beneficially or of record by the person and (D) any other information relating to the person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; and (ii) as to the stockholder giving the notice (A) the name and record address of such stockholder as they appear on the Corporation’s books and the name and address of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made, (B) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made, (C) a description of all arrangements or understandings relating to the nomination to be made by such stockholder among such stockholder, the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made, each proposed nominee and any other person or persons (including their names), (D) a representation that such stockholder (or a qualified representative of such stockholder) intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the persons named in its notice and (E) any other information relating to such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Such notice must be accompanied by a written consent of each proposed nominee to being named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected.

 

(e) If the Board or the chairman of the meeting of stockholders determines that any nomination was not made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.5, or that the information provided in a stockholder’s notice does not satisfy the information requirements of this Section 3.5, then such nomination shall not be considered at the meeting in question. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.5, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to present the nomination, such nomination shall be disregarded, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such nomination may have been received by the Corporation.

 

(f) In addition to the provisions of this Section 3.5, a stockholder shall also comply with all of the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth herein. Nothing in this Section 3.5 shall be deemed to affect any rights of the holders of Preferred Stock to elect directors pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation.

 

Section 3.6. Compensation. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these By Laws, the Board shall have the authority to fix the compensation of directors, including for service on a committee of the Board, and may be paid either a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board or other compensation as director. The directors may be reimbursed their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of committees of the Board may be allowed like compensation and reimbursement of expenses for service on the committee.

Section 7.5. Lost, Destroyed or Wrongfully Taken Certificates.

 

(a) If an owner of a certificate representing shares claims that such certificate has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Corporation shall issue a new certificate representing such shares or such shares in uncertificated form if the owner: (i) requests such a new certificate before the Corporation has notice that the certificate representing such shares has been acquired by a protected purchaser; (ii) if requested by the Corporation, delivers to the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, wrongful taking or destruction of such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares; and (iii) satisfies other reasonable requirements imposed by the Corporation.

(v) such other conditions for such transfer as shall be provided for under applicable law have been satisfied.

 

(b) Whenever any transfer of shares shall be made for collateral security and not absolutely, the Corporation shall so record such fact in the entry of transfer if, when the certificate for such shares is presented to the Corporation for transfer or, if such shares are uncertificated, when the instruction for registration of transfer thereof is presented to the Corporation, both the transferor and transferee request the Corporation to do so.

 

Section 7.7. Registered Stockholders.

(b) A restriction imposed by the Corporation on the transfer or the registration of shares of the Corporation or on the amount of shares of the Corporation that may be owned by any person or group of persons, even if otherwise lawful, is ineffective against a person without actual knowledge of such restriction unless: (i) the shares are certificated and such restriction is noted conspicuously on the certificate; or (ii) the shares are uncertificated and such restriction was contained in a notice, offering circular or prospectus sent by the Corporation to the registered owner of such shares within a reasonable time prior to or after the issuance or transfer of such shares.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 8.1. Right to Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (hereinafter an “Indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with such proceeding; provided, however, that, except as provided in Section 8.3 with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall indemnify an Indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.

 

Section 8.2. Right to Advancement of Expenses. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred in Section 8.1, an Indemnitee shall also have the right to be paid by the Corporation to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law the expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter an “advancement of expenses”); provided, however, that, if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such Indemnitee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon the Corporation’s receipt of an undertaking (hereinafter an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such Indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VIII or otherwise.

 

 

 

 

Section 8.3. Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit. If a claim under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 is not paid in full by the Corporation within 60 days after a written claim therefor has been received by the Corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be 20 days, the Indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In (a) any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by an Indemnitee to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that, and (b) in any suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (hereinafter a “final adjudication”) that, the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including a determination by its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the Indemnitee, shall be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article VIII or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

 

Section 8.4. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Article VIII shall not be exclusive of any other right, which such Indemnitee may have or hereafter acquire under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these By Laws, an agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

 

Section 8.5. Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and/or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

 

Section 8.6. Indemnification of Other Persons. This Article VIII shall not limit the right of the Corporation to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than Indemnitees. Without limiting the foregoing, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation and to any other person who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article VIII with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of Indemnitees under this Article VIII.

 

Section 8.7. Amendments. Any repeal or amendment of this Article VIII by the Board or the stockholders of the Corporation or by changes in applicable law, or the adoption of any other provision of these By Laws inconsistent with this Article VIII, will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prospective only (except to the extent such amendment or change in applicable law permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights to Indemnitees on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto), and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing hereunder in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision; provided however, that amendments or repeals of this Article VIII shall require the affirmative vote of the stockholders holding at least 66.7% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation.

 

Section 8.8. Certain Definitions.

Section 9.1. Place of Meetings. If the place of any meeting of stockholders, the Board or committee of the Board for which notice is required under these By Laws is not designated in the notice of such meeting, such meeting shall be held at the principal business office of the Corporation; provided, however, if the Board has, in its sole discretion, determined that a meeting shall not be held at any place, but instead shall be held by means of remote communication pursuant to Section 9.5 hereof, then such meeting shall not be held at any place.

 

Section 9.2. Fixing Record Dates.

 

(a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting. If the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2(a) at the adjourned meeting.

If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

 

Section 9.3. Means of Giving Notice.

Whenever under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By Laws notice is required to be given to any director, such notice shall be given either (i) in writing and sent by mail, or by a nationally recognized delivery service, (ii) by means of facsimile telecommunication or other form of electronic transmission, or (iii) by oral notice given personally or by telephone. A notice to a director will be deemed given as follows: (i) if given by hand delivery, orally, or by telephone, when actually received by the director, (ii) if sent through the United States mail, when deposited in the United States mail, with postage and fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the director at the director’s address appearing on the records of the Corporation, (iii) if sent for next day delivery by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, when deposited with such service, with fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the director at the director’s address appearing on the records of the Corporation, (iv) if sent by facsimile telecommunication, when sent to the facsimile transmission number for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation, (v) if sent by electronic mail, when sent to the electronic mail address for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation, or (vi) if sent by any other form of electronic transmission, when sent to the address, location or number (as applicable) for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation.

 

 

 

 

(b) Notice to Stockholders. Whenever under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By Laws notice is required to be given to any stockholder, such notice may be given (i) in writing and sent either by hand delivery, through the United States mail, or by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for next day delivery, or (ii) by means of a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder, to the extent permitted by, and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 232 of the DGCL. A notice to a stockholder shall be deemed given as follows: (i) if given by hand delivery, when actually received by the stockholder, (ii) if sent through the United States mail, when deposited in the United States mail, with postage and fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at the stockholder’s address appearing on the stock ledger of the Corporation, (iii) if sent for next day delivery by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, when deposited with such service, with fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at the stockholder’s address appearing on the stock ledger of the Corporation, and (iv) if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given and otherwise meeting the requirements set forth above, (A) if by facsimile transmission, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice, (B) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice, (C) if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specified posting, upon the later of (1) such posting and (2) the giving of such separate notice, and (D) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder. A stockholder may revoke such stockholder’s consent to receiving notice by means of electronic communication by giving written notice of such revocation to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if (1) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent and (2) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or to the Corporation’s transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice; provided, however, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

 

(c) Electronic Transmission. “Electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process, including but not limited to transmission by telex, facsimile telecommunication, electronic mail, telegram and cablegram.

 

(d) Notice to Stockholders Sharing Same Address. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively by the Corporation to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By Laws shall be effective if given by a single written notice to stockholders who share an address if consented to by the stockholders at that address to whom such notice is given. A stockholder may revoke such stockholder’s consent by delivering written notice of such revocation to the Corporation. Any stockholder who fails to object in writing to the Corporation within 60 days of having been given written notice by the Corporation of its intention to send such a single written notice shall be deemed to have consented to receiving such single written notice.

 

(e) Exceptions to Notice Requirements. Whenever notice is required to be given, under the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By Laws, to any person with whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such person. Any action or meeting that shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful. Whenever notice is required to be given by the Corporation, under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By Laws, to any stockholder to whom (1) notice of two consecutive annual meetings of stockholders and all notices of stockholder meetings or of the taking of action by written consent of stockholders without a meeting to such stockholder during the period between such two consecutive annual meetings, or (2) all, and at least two payments (if sent by first-class mail) of dividends or interest on securities during a 12-month period, have been mailed addressed to such stockholder at such stockholder’s address as shown on the records of the Corporation and have been returned undeliverable, the giving of such notice to such stockholder shall not be required. Any action or meeting that shall be taken or held without notice to such stockholder shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. If any such stockholder shall deliver to the Corporation a written notice setting forth such stockholder’s then current address, the requirement that notice be given to such stockholder shall be reinstated. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate need not state that notice was not given to persons to whom notice was not required to be given pursuant to Section 230(b) of the DGCL. The exception in subsection (1) of the first sentence of this paragraph to the requirement that notice be given shall not be applicable to any notice returned as undeliverable if the notice was given by electronic transmission.

 

 

 

 

Section 9.4. Waiver of Notice. Whenever any notice is required to be given under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these By Laws, a written waiver of such notice, signed by the person or persons entitled to said notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to said notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to such required notice. All such waivers shall be kept with the books of the Corporation.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause a Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event prior to the applicable Effectiveness Date, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold, or may be sold without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144, without the requirement for the Purchaser to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144, as determined by the counsel to the Purchaser pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Transfer Agent and the affected Holders (the “Effectiveness Period”).

If a Holder of Registrable Securities returns a Selling Stockholder Questionnaire after the deadline specified in the previous sentence, the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are required to name such Holder as a selling security holder in the Registration Statement or any pre-effective or post-effective amendment thereto and to include (to the extent not theretofore included) in the Registration Statement the Registrable Securities identified in such late Selling Stockholder Questionnaire; provided that the Purchaser shall not be required to file an additional Registration Statement solely for such shares.

If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise the Purchaser as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering; provided that the total offering price is reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $50 million. In such event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such underwriting by a majority-in-interest of the holders initiating the Demand Registration.

 

2.2.4 Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering, in good faith, advises the Purchaser and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other shares of Common Stock or other securities which the Purchaser desires to sell and the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of the Purchaser who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Shares” ), then the Purchaser shall include in such registration: (i) first, the Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Demanding Holders (Pro Rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such Person has requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such Person) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Purchaser desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

 

2.2.5 Withdrawal. If, prior to filing of the applicable “red herring prospectus” or prospectus supplement used for marketing such registration, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering by giving written notice to the Purchaser and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1.

 

 

 

 

2.3 Piggy-Back Registration.

 

2.3.1 Piggy-Back Rights. If at any time on or after the date of this Agreement the Purchaser proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by the Purchaser for its own account or for shareholders of the Purchaser for their account (or by the Purchaser and by shareholders of the Purchaser including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Purchaser’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Purchaser or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Purchaser shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than twenty (20) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within ten (10) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration” ). The Purchaser shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Purchaser and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in the immediately preceding sentences, the right to a Piggy-Back Registration set forth under this Section 2.2.1 with respect to the Registrable Securities shall terminate on the seventh anniversary of the Effective Date.

 

2.3.2 Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Purchaser and the holders of Registrable Securities in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Stock which the Purchaser desires to sell, taken together with the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual arrangements with persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 2.2, and the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then the Purchaser shall include in any such registration:

 

a) If the registration is undertaken for the Purchaser’s account: (A) first, the shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Purchaser desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Stock or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, Pro Rata, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of other persons that the Purchaser is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares;

 

b) If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities, (A) first, the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of the demanding persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Stock or other securities comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Purchaser desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of other persons that the Purchaser is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

 

 

 

 

2.3.3 Withdrawal. Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Purchaser of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Purchaser (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Purchaser shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 3.3.

 

2.3.4 Unlimited Piggy-Back Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof. The Holders shall have unlimited Piggy-Back Registration Rights.

 

2.3.5 Registrations on Form S-3. The holders of Registrable Securities may at any time and from time to time, request in writing that the Purchaser register the resale of any or all of such Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration which may be available at such time (“Form S-3”); provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be obligated to effect such request through an underwritten offering. Upon receipt of such written request, the Purchaser will promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities, and, as soon as practicable thereafter, effect the registration of all or such portion of such holder’s or holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities or other securities of the Purchaser, if any, of any other holder or holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Purchaser; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.3: (i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) if the holders of the Registrable Securities, together with the holders of any other securities of the Purchaser entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $500,000. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.

 

2.4 Block Trades; Other Coordinated Offerings.

 

2.4.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2,4, at any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf Registration is on file with the Commission, if a Demanding Holder wishes to engage in (a) an underwritten registered offering (whether firm commitment or otherwise) not involving a “road show” or other substantial marketing efforts prior to pricing (commonly referred to as a “Block Trade”) or (b) an otherwise coordinated “at the market” or similar registered offering through a broker, sales agent or distribution agent, whether as agent or principal (an “Other Coordinated Offering”), in each case, with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, either (x) $10 million or (y) all remaining Registrable Securities held by the Demanding Holder, then such Demanding Holder shall notify the Purchaser of the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering at least five (5) business days prior to the day such offering is expected to commence, and the Purchaser shall as expeditiously as possible use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering; provided that the Demanding Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities wishing to engage in the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work with the Purchaser and any Underwriters, brokers, sales agents or placement agents prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering.

 

2.4.2 The Purchaser may facilitate a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering if it determines that sufficient shares shall be traded by any Holder or Holders that would be more efficiently traded as a block trade.

 

2.4.3 Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall have the right to submit a notice to the Purchaser and the Underwriter(s) if any, of their intention to withdraw from such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchaser shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a block trade prior to its withdrawal under this Section 2.4.3.

 

 

 

 

2.4.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 2.3 shall not apply to a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering initiated by a Demanding Holder pursuant to this Section 2.4.

 

2.4.5 The Purchaser shall have the right to select the Underwriters, and brokers, sale agents or placement agents (if any) for such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, in each case, which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment bank.

 

2.4.6 A Holder in the aggregate may demand no more than two (2) Block Trades or Other Coordinated Offerings pursuant to this Section 2.4 in any twelve (12) month period.

 

3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

 

3.1          Filings; Information. Whenever the Purchaser is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2, the Purchaser shall use its best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and in connection with any such request:

 

3.1.1 Filing Registration Statement. The Purchaser shall use its best efforts to, as expeditiously as possible after receipt of a request for a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on any form for which the Purchaser then qualifies or which counsel for the Purchaser shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of all Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof, and shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and use its best efforts to keep it effective for the period required by Section 3.1.3; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall have the right to defer any Demand Registration for up to ninety (90) days, and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment of any demand registration to which such Piggy-Back Registration relates, in each case if the Purchaser shall furnish to the holders a certificate signed by Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Purchaser stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Purchaser, it would be materially detrimental to the Purchaser and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be effected at such time; provided further, however, that the Purchaser shall not have the right to exercise the right set forth in this provision more than once in any 365-day period in respect of a Demand Registration hereunder.

 

3.1.2 Copies. The Purchaser shall, prior to filing a Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration, and such holders’ legal counsel, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus), and such other documents as the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration or legal counsel for any such holders may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such holders.

 

3.1.3 Amendments and Supplements. The Purchaser shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or such securities have been withdrawn.

 

 

 

 

3.1.4 Notification. After the filing of a Registration Statement, the Purchaser shall promptly, and in no event more than two (2) business days after such filing, notify the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement of such filing, and shall further notify such holders promptly and confirm such advice in writing in all events within two (2) business days of the occurrence of any of the following: (i) when such Registration Statement becomes effective; (ii) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement becomes effective; (iii) the issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order (and the Purchaser shall take all actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered); and (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and promptly make available to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment; except that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, the Purchaser shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon, and the Purchaser shall not file any Registration Statement or prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, to which such holders or their legal counsel shall object.

 

3.1.5 State Securities Laws Compliance. The Purchaser shall use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Purchaser and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction.

 

3.1.6 Agreements for Disposition. The Purchaser shall enter into customary agreements (including, if applicable, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Purchaser in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement. No holder of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement shall be required to make any representations or warranties in the underwriting agreement except, if applicable, with respect to such holder’s organization, good standing, authority, title to Registrable Securities, lack of conflict of such sale with such holder’s material agreements and organizational documents, and with respect to written information relating to such holder that such holder has furnished in writing expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement.

 

3.1.7 Cooperation. The principal executive officer of the Purchaser, the principal financial officer of the Purchaser, the principal accounting officer of the Purchaser and all other officers and members of the management of the Purchaser shall cooperate fully in any offering of Registrable Securities hereunder, which cooperation shall include, without limitation, the preparation of the Registration Statement with respect to such offering and all other offering materials and related documents, and participation in meetings with Underwriters, attorneys, accountants and potential Holders.

 

3.1.8 Records. The Purchaser shall make available for inspection by the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other professional retained by any holder of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement or any Underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Purchaser, as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Purchaser’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by any of them in connection with such Registration Statement.

 

 

 

 

3.1.9 Opinions and Comfort Letters. Upon request, the Purchaser shall furnish to each holder of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement a signed counterpart, addressed to such holder, of (i) any opinion of counsel to the Purchaser delivered to any Underwriter and (ii) any comfort letter from the Purchaser’s independent public accountants delivered to any Underwriter. In the event no legal opinion is delivered to any Underwriter, the Purchaser shall furnish to each holder of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, at any time that such holder elects to use a prospectus, an opinion of counsel to the Purchaser to the effect that the Registration Statement containing such prospectus has been declared effective and that no stop order is in effect.

 

3.1.10          Earnings Statement. The Purchaser shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and the Securities Act, and make available to its shareholders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

 

3.1.11          Listing. The Purchaser shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities included in any registration to be listed on such exchanges or otherwise designated for trading in the same manner as similar securities issued by the Purchaser are then listed or designated or, if no such similar securities are then listed or designated, in a manner satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such registration.

 

3.1.12          Road Show. If the registration involves the registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $50,000,000, the Purchaser shall use its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Purchaser to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in any underwritten offering.

 

3.2           Obligation to Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from the Purchaser of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.1.4(iv), or, in the case of a resale registration on Form S-3 pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, upon any suspension by the Purchaser, pursuant to a written insider trading compliance program adopted by the Purchaser’s Board of Directors, of the ability of all “insiders” covered by such program to transact in the Purchaser’s securities because of the existence of material non-public information, each holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall immediately discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.4(iv) or the restriction on the ability of “insiders” to transact in the Purchaser’s securities is removed, as applicable, and, if so directed by the Purchaser, each such holder will deliver to the Purchaser all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice.

 

3.3 Registration Expenses. The Purchaser shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.2, any Piggy-Back Registration pursuant to Section 2.3, and any registration on Form S-3 effected pursuant to Section 2.4, and all expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under this Agreement, whether or not the Registration Statement becomes effective, including, without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees; (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities); (iii) printing expenses; (iv) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities as required by Section 3.1.11; (v) Financial Industry Regulatory Authority fees; (vi) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Purchaser and fees and expenses for independent certified public accountants retained by the Purchaser (including the expenses or costs associated with the delivery of any opinions or comfort letters requested pursuant to Section 3.1.9); and (viii) the reasonable fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Purchaser in connection with such registration. The Purchaser shall have no obligation to pay (i) any underwriting discounts or selling commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders, or (ii) the fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing any Holders. Additionally, in an underwritten offering, all selling shareholders and the Purchaser shall bear the expenses of the Underwriter pro rata in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is selling in such offering.

 

 

 

 

3.4 Information. The holders of Registrable Securities shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested by the Purchaser, or the managing Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 2 and in connection with the Purchaser’s obligation to comply with Federal and applicable state securities laws. In addition, the holders of Registrable Securities shall comply with all prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act and applicable SEC regulations.

 

3.5 Legend Removal Obligations. In connection with the written request of any Holder, the Purchaser shall remove any restrictive legend included on the certificates (or, in the case of book-entry shares, any other instrument or record) representing such Holder’s and/or its affiliates’ or permitted transferee’s ownership of Registrable Securities, and promptly issue a certificate (or evidence of the issuance of securities in book-entry form) without such restrictive legend or any other restrictive legend to the holder of the applicable shares of Registrable Securities upon which it is stamped, if (i) such Registrable Securities are registered for resale under the Securities Act and such Registration Statement for such Registrable Securities has not been suspended under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, (ii) such Registrable Securities are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) such Registrable Securities are eligible for sale pursuant to Section 4(a)(1) of the Securities Act or Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions. Following the earlier of (A) the effective date of a Registration Statement registering such Registrable Securities or (B) Rule 144 becoming available for the resale of such Registrable Securities without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, the Purchaser upon the written request of the Holder or its permitted transferee, shall instruct the Purchaser’s transfer agent to remove the legend from such Registrable Securities (in whatever form) and shall cause the Purchaser’s counsel to issue any legend removal opinion required by the transfer agent. Any reasonable and documented fees (with respect to the transfer agent, the Purchaser’s counsel, or otherwise) associated with the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Purchaser. If a legend is no longer required pursuant to the foregoing, the Purchaser will, as soon as practicable following the delivery by any Holder or its permitted transferee to the Purchaser or the transfer agent (with notice to the Purchaser) of a legended certificate (if applicable) representing such Registrable Securities and, to the extent such sale is not pursuant to an effective registration statement, such other documentation as reasonably requested by the Purchaser, deliver or cause to be delivered to the holder of such Registrable Securities a certificate representing such Registrable Securities (or evidence of the issuance of such Registrable Securities in book-entry form) that is free from all restrictive legends; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser will not be required to deliver any opinion, authorization, certificate or direction to remove the restrictive legend pursuant to this Section 3.5 if (x) removal of the legend would result in or facilitate transfer of securities in violation of applicable law or (y) following receipt of instruction from the Purchaser, the transfer agent refuses to remove the legend.

 

4.   INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.

 

4.1 Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and each other holder of Registrable Securities, and each of their respective officers, employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, attorneys and agents, and each person, if any, who controls an Holder and each other holder of Registrable Securities (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, an “Holder Indemnified Party” ), from and against any expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or allegedly untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising out of or based upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Purchaser of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Purchaser and relating to action or inaction required of the Purchaser in connection with any such registration; and the Purchaser shall promptly reimburse the Holder Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Holder Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Purchaser will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Purchaser, in writing, by such selling Holder expressly for use therein. The Purchaser also shall indemnify any Underwriter of the Registrable Securities, their officers, affiliates, directors, partners, members and agents and each person who controls such Underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification provided above in this Section 4.1.

 

 

 

 

4.2 Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. Each selling Holder will, in the event that any registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling Holder, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, each of its directors and officers and each Underwriter (if any), and each other selling Holder and each other person, if any, who controls another selling Holder or such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Purchaser by such selling Holder expressly for use therein, and shall reimburse the Purchaser, its directors and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. Each selling Holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling Holder.

 

4.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other person (the “Indemnifying Party” ) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

 

4.4 Contribution.

 

4.4.1 If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

 

 

 

 

4.4.2 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.

 

4.4.3 The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

4.5 Survival. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party or any officer, director or controlling person of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

 

5.   RULE 144.

 

5.1 Rule 144. The Purchaser covenants that it shall file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall take such further action as the holders of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission.

 

6.   MISCELLANEOUS.

 

6.1 Other Registration Rights. The Purchaser represents and warrants that no person, other than the holders of the Registrable Securities, has any right to require the Purchaser to register any shares of the Purchaser’s capital stock for sale or to include shares of the Purchaser’s capital stock in any registration filed by the Purchaser for the sale of shares of capital stock for its own account or for the account of any other person. Further, the Purchaser represents and warrants that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar terms and conditions and in the event of a conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

 

6.2 Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Purchaser hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Purchaser in whole or in part. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder may be freely assigned or delegated by such holder of Registrable Securities in conjunction with and to the extent of any transfer of Registrable Securities by any such holder. This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties, to the permitted assigns of the Holders or holder of Registrable Securities or of any assignee of the Holders or holder of Registrable Securities. This Agreement is not intended to confer any rights or benefits on any persons that are not party hereto other than as expressly set forth in Article 4 and this Section 6.2.

 

 

 

 

6.3 Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals or other communications (collectively, “Notices” ) required or permitted to be given hereunder or which are given with respect to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally served, delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, telex or facsimile, addressed as set forth below, or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice. Notice shall be deemed given on the date of service or transmission if personally served or transmitted by telegram, telex or facsimile; provided, that if such service or transmission is not on a business day or is after normal business hours, then such notice shall be deemed given on the next business day. Notice otherwise sent as provided herein shall be deemed given on the next business day following timely delivery of such notice to a reputable air courier service with an order for next-day delivery.

Exhibit 10.3

 

FORM OF LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

 

THIS LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement, as defined below) by and between (i) Data Knights Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (including any successor entity thereto, the “Purchaser”), and (ii) _______________ (the “Subject Party”). Any capitalized term used but not defined in this Agreement will have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Merger Agreement.

 

WHEREAS, on April 25, 2022, (i) the Purchaser, (ii) Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Purchaser (“Merger Sub), (iii) Data Knights, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser Representative”), (iv) Paul Casey (the “Seller Representative”), and (v) OneMedNet Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which the parties thereto intend to effect the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”), as a result of which all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be exchanged for the Stockholder Merger Consideration, all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and in view of the valuable consideration to be received by the Subject Party thereunder, the parties desire to enter into this Agreement, pursuant to which the Purchaser Common Stock received by the Subject Party in the Merger (all such securities, together with any securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such securities or into which such securities are exchanged or converted, the Restricted Securities) shall become subject to limitations on disposition as set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, which are incorporated into this Agreement as if fully set forth below, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Lock-Up Provisions.

 

(a) The Subject Party hereby agrees not to, during the period commencing from the Closing and ending on the earliest of (x) six (6) months after the date of the Closing and (y) the date after the Closing on which the Purchaser consummates a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization, or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of the Purchaser’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of the Purchaser Common Stock for cash, securities, or other property (the “Lock-Up Period”): (i) lend, offer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, donate, assign, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Restricted Securities, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Restricted Securities, or (iii) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, whether any such transaction described in clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) above is to be settled by delivery of Restricted Securities or other securities, in cash or otherwise (any of the foregoing described in clauses (i), (ii), or (iii), a “Prohibited Transfer”).

 

(b) The foregoing shall not apply to the transfer of any or all of the Restricted Securities (I) to any Permitted Transferee or (II) pursuant to a court order or settlement agreement related to the distribution of assets in connection with the dissolution of marriage or civil union; provided, however, that in either of cases (I) or (II), it shall be a condition to such transfer that such transfer complies with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other applicable law, and that the transferee executes and delivers to the Purchaser an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the Restricted Securities subject to the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Subject Party, and there shall be no further transfer of such Restricted Securities except in accordance with this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the term “Permitted Transferee” shall mean: (1) the members of the Subject Party’s immediate family (for purposes of this Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean with respect to any natural person, any of the following: such person’s spouse or domestic partner, the siblings of such person and his or her spouse or domestic partner, and the direct descendants and ascendants (including adopted and step children and parents) of such person and his or her spouses or domestic partners and siblings), (2) any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the Subject Party or the immediate family of the Subject Party, (3) if the Subject Party is a trust, to the trustor or beneficiary of such trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such trust, (4) in the case of an entity, officers, directors, general partners, limited partners, members, or stockholders of such entity that receive such transfer as a distribution, or related investment funds or vehicles controlled or managed by such persons or their respective affiliates, (5) to any affiliate of the Subject Party, and (6) any transferee whereby there is no change in beneficial ownership. The Subject Party further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Purchaser that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to give further effect thereto.

 

 

 

 

(c) If any Prohibited Transfer is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, such purported Prohibited Transfer shall be null and void ab initio, and the Purchaser shall refuse to recognize any such purported transferee of the Restricted Securities as one of its equity holders for any purpose, and shall refuse to record any such purported transfer of the Restricted Securities in the books of the Company. In order to enforce this Section 1, the Purchaser may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Restricted Securities of the Subject Party (and Permitted Transferees and assigns thereof) until the end of the Lock-Up Period.

 

(d) During the Lock-Up Period, each certificate evidencing any Restricted Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form, in addition to any other applicable legends:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SET FORTH IN A LOCK-UP AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF [●], 2022, BY AND AMONG THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES (THE “ISSUER”) AND THE ISSUER’S SECURITY HOLDER NAMED THEREIN, AS AMENDED. A COPY OF SUCH LOCK-UP AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE ISSUER TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.”

 

(e) For the avoidance of any doubt, the Subject Party shall retain all of its rights as a stockholder of the Purchaser during the Lock-Up Period, including the right to vote any Restricted Securities.

 

(f) The foregoing notwithstanding, to the extent any Subject Party is granted a release or waiver from the restrictions contained in this Section 1 prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, then all Subject Parties shall be automatically granted a release or waiver from the restrictions contained in this Section to the same extent, on substantially the same terms as and on a pro rata basis with, the Subject Party to which such release or waiver is granted.

 

2. Miscellaneous; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

 

(a) Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. This Agreement and all rights and obligations of a party are personal and may not be transferred or delegated at any time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may freely assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any successor entity (whether by merger, consolidation, equity sale, asset sale, or otherwise) without obtaining the consent or approval of the Subject Party. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision herein be enforced by, any other person.

 

(b) Third Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any instrument or document executed by any party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall create any rights in, or be deemed to have been executed for the benefit of, any person or entity that is not a party hereto or thereto or a successor or permitted assign of such a party.

 

2

 

 

(c) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement and any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of law principles thereof. All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any state or federal court located in Wilmington, Delaware (or in any appellate courts thereof) (the “Specified Courts”). Each party hereto hereby (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Specified Court for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto and (ii) irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by any Specified Court. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each party irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any other action or proceeding relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, on behalf of itself, or its property, by personal delivery of copies of such process to such party at the applicable address set forth in Section 2(f). Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

 

(d) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

 

(e) Interpretation. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires: (i) any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine, or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns, and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (ii) “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding or succeeding such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (iii) the words “herein,” “hereto,” and “hereby” and other words of similar import in this Agreement shall be deemed in each case to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or other subdivision of this Agreement; and (iv) the term “or” means “and/or”. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. Consequently, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

 

(f) Notices. All notices, consents, waivers, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered (i) in person, (ii) by facsimile or other electronic means, with affirmative confirmation of receipt, (iii) one Business Day after being sent, if sent by reputable, nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) three (3) Business Days after being mailed, if sent by registered or certified mail, pre-paid and return receipt requested, in each case to the applicable party at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice):

If to the Subject Party, to: the address set forth below the Subject Party’s name on the signature page to this Agreement.

 

(g) Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of the Purchaser and the Subject Party. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition, or provision.

 

(h) Authorization on Behalf of the Purchaser. The parties acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any and all determinations, actions, or other authorizations under this Agreement on behalf of the Purchaser, including enforcing the Purchaser’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, or providing any waivers with respect to the provisions hereof, shall solely be made, taken, and authorized by majority of the disinterested independent directors of the Purchaser’s board of directors. In the event that the Purchaser at any time does not have any disinterested directors, so long as the Subject Party has any remaining obligations under this Agreement, the Purchaser will promptly appoint one in connection with this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that an affiliate of a Subject Party serves as a director, officer, employee, or other authorized agent of the Purchaser or any of its current or future affiliates, neither the Subject Party nor its affiliate shall have authority, express or implied, to act or make any determination on behalf of the Purchaser or any of its current or future affiliates in connection with this Agreement or any dispute or Action with respect hereto.

 

(i) Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal, and enforceable, and the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality, or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal, and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision.

 

(j) Specific Performance. Each party acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement are unique, recognizes and affirms that, in the event of a breach of this Agreement, money damages will be inadequate and there will be no adequate remedy at law, and agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the adversely affected party or parties shall be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security, this being in addition to any other right or remedy available under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

 

4

 

 

(k) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly canceled; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies or any of the obligations of the parties hereto under any other agreement between a Subject Party and the Purchaser or any certificate or instrument delivered in connection with the Purchase, and nothing in any other agreement, certificate, or instrument shall limit any of the rights or remedies or any of the obligations under this Agreement.

 

(l) Further Assurances. From time to time, at another party’s request and without further consideration (but at the requesting party’s reasonable cost and expense), each party shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(m) Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may also be executed and delivered by facsimile signature or by email in portable document format in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Exhibit 10.8

 

OneMedNet Corporation

 

April 18, 2023

Dear Aaron Green,

 

OneMedNet Corp. (the “Company”) is pleased to offer you employment on the following terms:

 

1. Position. Your title will be President and will have dual reporting to the CEO and the Chairman of the Board. This is a full-time, exempt position. While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part-time) that would create a conflict of interest with the Company. By signing this letter agreement, you confirm to the Company that you have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the Company.

 

2. Cash Compensation. The Company will pay you a starting salary at the rate of $350,000 USD per year, payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll schedule and subject to applicable deductions and withholdings. This salary will be subject to periodic review and adjustments at the Company’s discretion.

 

3. Annual Bonus. Beginning in fiscal year 2023, as pro-rated for the amount of the fiscal year that you are employed, you will also be eligible to receive an annual cash performance bonus of $175,000 USD upon the achievement of the perfo1mance goals set by the Company’s CEO and Board of Directors (the “Target Bonus”). The Target Bonus, or any portion thereof, will be paid as soon as practicable after the Company’s CEO and Board of Directors determines that the applicable performance goals have been achieved, provided that you must remain an employee of the Company through the date the Target Bonus is paid out in order to receive the Target Bonus.

 

4. Employee Benefits. As an employee of the Company, you will be eligible to receive certain employee benefits. Refer to benefit plan for further detail. You should note that the Company may modify job titles, salaries and benefits from time to time as it deems necessary.

 

5. Equity. Subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, you are eligible to receive 600,000 of the company’s outstanding shares at closing, as part of the Company’s Restricted Stock Unit Plan.

 

6. Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement. Like all Company employees, you will be required, as a condition of your employment with the Company, to sign the Company’s standard Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, requires, among other provisions, the assignment of patent rights to any invention made during your employment at the Company.

7. Employment Relationship. Employment with the Company is for no specific period of time. Your employment with the Company will be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you are superseded by this letter agreement. This is the full and complete agreement between you and the Company on this term. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company (other than you).

 

8. Termination.

 

a. In the event that your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined below)), or is terminated by you for Good Reason (as defined below), after six months of employment, and you sign and do not revoke a standard release of claims with the Company in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company’s Board of Directors (a “Release”), which Release becomes irrevocable no later than sixty (60) days (the “Release Deadline”) after the date of your termination of employment (the “Termination Date”) you will be entitled to the following severance payment (“Severance”):

 

i. If the Termination Date is after 6 months’ of employment, but before you have completed 12 months’ of employment, you will receive 3 months’ salary;

 

ii. If the Termination Date is after 12 months’ employment you will receive 6 months’ salary.

 

If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, you will forfeit any right to Severance. In no event will Severance be paid or provided hereunder until the Release actually becomes effective and irrevocable.

 

The following terms referred to in this offer letter shall have the following meanings:

 

“Cause” shall mean: (i) your material failure to perform your stated duties, and your continued failure to cure such failure to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company within ten (10) days following written notice of such failure to you from the Company’s Board of Directors; (ii) your material violation of a written Company policy (including any insider trading policy) or any written agreement or covenant with the Company; (iii) your conviction of, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony (other than motor vehicle offenses the effect of which do not materially impair your performance of your employment duties); (iv) a willful act by you that constitutes gross misconduct and which is injurious to the Company; (v) your commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement, dishonesty or any other willful misconduct that has caused or is reasonably expected to result in material injury to the Company; (vi) the unauthorized use or disclosure by you of any proprietary information or trade secrets of the Company or any other party to whom you owe an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of your relationship with the Company; or your willful failure to cooperate with an investigation by a governmental authority.

 

 

 

 

Aaron Green

“Good Reason” shall mean your voluntary termination, within thirty (30) days following the expiration of any Company cure period (discussed below) following the occurrence of one or more of the following, without your consent: (i) a material reduction of your duties, authority, or responsibilities, relative to your title, duties, authority, or responsibilities as in effect immediately prior to such reduction; provided that your title, duties, authority and responsibilities will not be deemed to be materially reduced if you have reasonably comparable duties, authorities and responsibilities as an employee with respect to the Company’s business following a Change of Control, regardless of any change in title or whether you provide services to a subsidiary, affiliate, business unit, division or otherwise; (ii) a material reduction by the Company of your annual base salary, except to the extent the base salaries of all other senior executives of the Company are similarly reduced; (iii) a material change in the location of the performance of your work, required by the Company, of more than fifty (50) miles from your principal place of residence. You may not resign for Good Reason without first providing the Company with written notice within ninety (90) days of the initial existence of the condition that you believe constitutes Good Reason specifically identifying the acts or omissions constituting the grounds for Good Reason and a reasonable cure period of not less than thirty (30) days following the date of such notice.

 

9. Tax Matters.

 

a. Withholding. All forms of compensation referred to in this letter agreement are subject to reduction to reflect applicable withholding and payroll taxes and other deductions required by law.

 

b. Tax Advice. You are encouraged to obtain your own tax advice regarding your compensation from the Company. You agree that the Company does not have a duty to design its compensation policies in a manner that minimizes your tax liabilities, and you will not make any claim against the Company or its Board of Directors related to tax liabilities arising from your compensation.

 

10. Interpretation, Amendment and Enforcement. This letter agreement and Exhibit A constitute the complete agreement between you and the Company, contain all of the terms of your employment with the Company and supersede any prior agreements, representations or understandings (whether written, oral or implied) between you and the Company. This letter agreement may not be amended or modified, except by an express written agreement signed by both you and a duly authorized officer of the Company. The terms of this letter agreement and the resolution of any disputes as to the meaning, effect, performance or validity of this letter agreement or arising out of, related to, or in any way connected with, this letter agreement, your employment with the Company or any other relationship between you and the Company (the “Disputes”) will be governed by Delaware law, excluding laws relating to conflicts or choice of law. You and the Company submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Delaware in connection with any Dispute or any claim related to any Dispute.

11. We also ask that, if you have not already done so, you disclose to the Company any and all agreements relating to your prior employment that may affect your eligibility to be employed by the Company or limit the manner in which you may be employed. It is the Company’s understanding that any such agreements will not prevent you from performing the duties of your position and you represent that such is the case. Moreover, you agree that, during the term of your employment with the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, occupation, consulting or other business activity directly related to the business in which the Company is now involved or becomes involved during the term of your employment, nor will you engage in any other activities that conflict with your obligations to the Company. Similarly, you agree not to bring any third-party confidential information to the Company, including that of your former employer, and that in performing your duties for the Company you will not in any way utilize any such information.

 

12. As a condition of your employment, you are also required to sign and comply with the Company’s standard Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement.

 

We hope that you will accept our offer to join the Company. You may indicate your agreement with these terms and accept this offer by signing and dating both the enclosed duplicate original of this letter agreement and the enclosed Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement and returning them to me. This offer, if not accepted, will expire at the close of business on April 30, 2023. As required by law, your employment with the Company is contingent upon your providing legal proof of your identity and authorization to work in the United States. Your employment is also contingent upon successful background check and your starting work with the Company on May 23, 2023.

 

If you have any questions, please let me know.

 

Very truly yours,

PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND INVENTIONS AGREEMENT

 

The following confirms and memorializes an agreement that COMPANY NAME INC, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and I have had since the commencement of my employment (which term, for purposes of this agreement, shall be deemed to include any relationship of service to the Company that I may have had prior to actually becoming an employee) with the Company in any capacity and that is and has been a material part of the consideration for my employment by Company:

 

1. I have not entered into, and I agree I will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict with this Agreement or my employment with Company. I will not violate any agreement with or rights of any third party or, except as expressly authorized by Company in writing hereafter, use or disclose my own or any third party’s confidential information or intellectual property when acting within the scope of my employment or otherwise on behalf of Company. Further, I have not retained anything containing any confidential information of a prior employer or other third party, whether or not created by me.

 

2. Company shall own all right, title and interest (including patent rights, copyrights, trade secret rights, mask work rights, sui generis database 1ights and all other intellectual property rights of any sort throughout the world) relating to any and all inventions (whether or not patentable), works of authorship, mask works, designs, know-how, ideas and information made or conceived or reduced to practice, in whole or in part, by me during the term of my employment with Company to and only to the fullest extent allowed (which is attached as Appendix A) (collectively “Inventions”) and I will promptly disclose all Inventions to Company. Without disclosing any third party confidential information, I will also disclose anything I believe is excluded so that the Company can make an independent assessment. I hereby make all assignments necessary to accomplish the foregoing. I shall further assist Company, at Company’s expense, to further evidence, record and perfect such assignments, and to perfect, obtain, maintain, enforce, and defend any rights specified to be so owned or assigned. I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Company as my agent and attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution, to act for and in my behalf to execute and file any document and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the foregoing with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me. If I wish to clarify that something created by me prior to my employment that relates to Company’s actual or proposed business is not within the scope of the foregoing assignment, I have listed it on Appendix B in a manner that does not violate any third party rights or disclose any confidential information. Without limiting Section 1 or Company’s other rights and remedies, if, when acting within the scope of my employment or otherwise on behalf of Company, I use or (except pursuant to this Section 2) disclose my own or any third party’s confidential information or intellectual property (or if any Invention cannot be fully made, used, reproduced, distributed and otherwise exploited without using or violating the foregoing), Company will have and I hereby grant Company a perpetual, i1Tevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable right and license to exploit and exercise all such confidential information and intellectual property rights.

3. To the extent allowed by law, paragraph 2 includes all rights of paternity, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights,” “artist’s rights,” “droit moral,” or the like (collectively “Moral Rights”). To the extent I retain any such Moral Rights under applicable law, I hereby ratify and consent to any action that may be taken with respect to such Moral Rights by or authorized by Company and agree not to assert any Moral Rights with respect thereto. I will confirm any such ratifications, consents and agreements from time to time as requested by the Company.

 

4. I agree that all Inventions and all other business, technical and financial information (including, without limitation, the identity of and information relating to customers or employees) I develop, learn or obtain during the term of my employment that relate to Company or the business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company or that are received by or for Company in confidence, constitute “Proprietary Information.” I will hold in confidence and not disclose or, except within the scope of my employment, use any Proprietary Information. However, I shall not be obligated under this paragraph with respect to information I can document is or becomes readily publicly available without restriction through no fault of mine. Upon termination of my employment, I will promptly return to Company all items containing or embodying Proprietary Information (including all copies), except that I may keep my personal copies of (i) my compensation records, (ii) materials distributed to shareholders generally and (iii) this Agreement. I also recognize and agree that I have no expectation of privacy with respect to Company’s telecommunications, networking or infom1ation processing systems (including, without limitation, stored computer files, embedded messages and voice messages) and that my activity and any files or messages on or using any of those systems may be monitored at any time without notice.

 

5. Until one year after the term of my employment, I will not encourage or solicit any employee or consultant of Company to leave Company for any reason (except for the bona fide firing of Company personnel within the scope of my employment).

 

6. I agree that during the term of my employment with Company (whether or not during business hours), I will not engage in any activity that is in any way competitive with the business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company, and I will not assist any other person or organization in competing or in preparing to compete with any business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company.

 

7. I agree that this Agreement is not an employment contract for any particular term and that I have the right to resign and the Company has the right to terminate my employment at will, at any time, for any or no reason, with or without cause. In addition, this Agreement does not purport to set forth all of the terms and conditions of my employment, and, as an employee of Company, I have obligations to Company which are not set forth in this Agreement. However, the terms of this Agreement govern over any inconsistent terms and can only be changed by a subsequent written agreement signed by the President of the Company.

 

8. I agree that my obligations under paragraphs 2, 3, 4 and 5 of this Agreement shall continue in effect after termination of my employment, regardless of the reason or reasons for termination, and whether such termination is voluntary or involuntary on my part, and that Company is entitled to communicate my obligations under this Agreement to any future employer or potential employer of mine. My obligations under paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 also shall be binding upon my heirs, executors, assigns, and administrators and shall insure to the benefit of Company, its subsidiaries, successors and assigns.

9. Any dispute in the meaning, effect or validity of this Agreement shall be resolved in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. I further agree that if one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be illegal or unenforceable under applicable law, such illegal or unenforceable portion(s) shall be limited or excluded from this Agreement to the minimum extent required so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its te1ms. This Agreement is fully assignable and transferable by Company, but any purported assignment or transfer by me is void. I also understand that any breach of this Agreement will cause irreparable harm to Company for which damages would not be an adequate remedy, and, therefore, Company will be entitled to injunctive relief with respect thereto in addition to any other remedies and without any requirement to post bond.

 

10. I acknowledge receipt of the following notice under 18 U.S.C § 1833(b)(l): “An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.”

Company shall own all right, title and interest (including patent rights, copyrights, trade secret rights, mask work rights, sui generis database rights and all other intellectual property rights of any sort throughout the world) relating to any and all inventions (whether or not patentable), works of authorship, mask works, designs, know-how, ideas and information made or conceived or reduced to practice, in whole or in part, by me during the term of my employment with Company to and only to the fullest extent allowed (which is attached as Appendix A) (collectively “Inventions”) and I will promptly disclose all Inventions to Company. Without disclosing any third party confidential information, I will also disclose anything I believe is excluded so that the Company can make an independent assessment. I hereby make all assignments necessary to accomplish the foregoing. I shall further assist Company, at Company’s expense, to further evidence, record and perfect such assignments, and to perfect, obtain, maintain, enforce, and defend any rights specified to be so owned or assigned. I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Company as my agent and attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution, to act for and in my behalf to execute and file any document and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the foregoing with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me. If I wish to clarify that something created by me prior to my employment that relates to Company’s actual or proposed business is not within the scope of the foregoing assignment, I have listed it on Appendix B in a manner that does not violate any third party rights or disclose any confidential information. Without limiting Section 1 or Company’s other rights and remedies, if, when acting within the scope of my employment or otherwise on behalf of Company, I use or (except pursuant to this Section 2) disclose my own or any third party’s confidential information or intellectual property (or if any Invention cannot be fully made, used, reproduced, distributed and otherwise exploited without using or violating the foregoing), Company will have and I hereby grant Company a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable right and license to exploit and exercise all such confidential information and intellectual property rights.

3. To the extent allowed by law, paragraph 2 includes all rights of paternity, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights,” “artist’s rights,” “droit moral,” or the like (collectively “Moral Rights”). To the extent I retain any such Moral Rights under applicable law, I hereby ratify and consent to any action that may be taken with respect to such Moral Rights by or authorized by Company and agree not to assert any Moral Rights with respect thereto. I will confirm any such ratifications, consents and agreements from time to time as requested by the Company.

 

4. I agree that all Inventions and all other business, technical and financial information (including, without limitation, the identity of and information relating to customers or employees) I develop, learn or obtain during the term of my employment that relate to Company or the business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company or that are received by or for Company in confidence, constitute “Proprietary Information.” I will hold in confidence and not disclose or, except within the scope of my employment, use any Proprietary Information. However, I shall not be obligated under this paragraph with respect to information I can document is or becomes readily publicly available without restriction through no fault of mine. Upon termination of my employment, I will promptly return to Company all items containing or embodying Proprietary Information (including all copies), except that I may keep my personal copies of (i) my compensation records, (ii) materials distributed to shareholders generally and (iii) this Agreement. I also recognize and agree that I have no expectation of privacy with respect to Company’s telecommunications, networking or information processing systems (including, without limitation, stored computer files, embedded messages and voice messages) and that my activity and any files or messages on or using any of those systems may be monitored at any time without notice.

 

5. Until one year after the term of my employment, I will not encourage or solicit any employee or consultant of Company to leave Company for any reason (except for the bona fide firing of Company personnel within the scope of my employment).

 

6. I agree that during the term of my employment with Company (whether or not during business hours), I will not engage in any activity that is in any way competitive with the business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company, and I will not assist any other person or organization in competing or in preparing to compete with any business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company.

 

7. I agree that this Agreement is not an employment contract for any particular term and that I have the right to resign a11d the Company has the right to terminate my employment at will, at any time, for any or no reason, with or without cause. In addition, this Agreement does not purport to set forth all of the terms and conditions of my employment, and, as an employee of Company, I have obligations to Company which are not set forth in this Agreement. However, the terms of this Agreement govern over any inconsistent terms and can only be changed by a subsequent written agreement signed by the President of the Company.

8. I agree that my obligations under paragraphs 2, 3, 4 and 5 of this Agreement shall continue in effect after termination of my employment, regardless of the reason or reasons for termination, and whether such termination is voluntary or involuntary on my part, and that Company is entitled to communicate my obligations under this Agreement to any future employer or potential employer of mine. My obligations under paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 also shall be binding upon my heirs, executors, assigns, and administrators and shall insure to the benefit of Company, its subsidiaries, successors and assigns.

 

9. Any dispute in the meaning, effect or validity of this Agreement shall be resolved in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. I further agree that if one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be illegal or unenforceable under applicable law, such illegal or unenforceable portion(s) shall be limited or excluded from this Agreement to the minimum extent required so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement is fully assignable and transferable by Company, but any purported assignment or transfer by me is void. I also understand that any breach of this Agreement will cause irreparable harm to Company for which damages would not be an adequate remedy, and, therefore, Company will be entitled to injunctive relief with respect thereto in addition to any other remedies and without any requirement to post bond.

 

10. I acknowledge receipt of the following notice under 18 U.S.C § 1833(b)(l): “An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.”

Paul Casey

1010 Wilder Avenue

Apt. 1301

Honolulu, HI 96822

 

Dear Paul,

 

OneMedNet Corp. (the “Company”) is pleased to offer you employment on the following terms:

 

1. Position. Your title will be CEO and you will report to the Board of Directors. This is a full-time, exempt position. While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part- time) that would create a conflict of interest with the Company. By signing this letter agreement, you confirm to the Company that you have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the Company.

 

2. Cash Compensation. The Company will pay you a starting salary at the rate of $144,000 per year, payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll schedule and subject to applicable deductions and withholdings. This salary will be subject to periodic review and adjustments at the Company’s discretion.

 

3. Employee Benefits. As an employee of the Company, you will be eligible to receive certain employee benefits. Refer to benefit plan for further detail. You should note that the Company may modify job titles, salaries and benefits from time to time as it deems necessary.

 

4. Equity. You will be awarded 147,000 shares of stock upon the successful fundraising of an amount equal to or greater than $5,000,000. As part of the Company’s Restricted Stock Unit Plan, further equity will be rewarded subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

5. Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement. Like all Company employees, you will be required, as a condition of your employment with the Company, to sign the Company’s standard Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, requires, among other provisions, the assignment of patent rights to any invention made during your employment at the Company.

 

6. Employment Relationship. Employment with the Company is for no specific period of time. Your employment with the Company will be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you are superseded by this letter agreement. This is the full and complete agreement between you and the Company on this term. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company (other than you).

The following terms referred to in this offer letter shall have the following meanings:

 

Cause” shall mean: (i) your material failure to perform your stated duties, and your continued failure to cure such failure to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company within ten (10) days following written notice of such failure to you from the Company’s Board of Directors; (ii) your material violation of a written Company policy (including any insider trading policy) or any written agreement or covenant with the Company; (iii) your conviction of, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony (other than motor vehicle offenses the effect of which do not materially impair your performance of your employment duties); (iv) a willful act by you that constitutes gross misconduct and which is injurious to the Company; (v) your commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement, dishonesty or any other willful misconduct that has caused or is reasonably expected to result in material injury to the Company; (vi) the unauthorized use or disclosure by you of any proprietary information or trade secrets of the Company or any other party to whom you owe an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of your relationship with the Company; or your willful failure to cooperate with an investigation by a governmental authority.

 

Good Reason” shall mean your voluntary termination, within thirty (30) days following the expiration of any Company cure period (discussed below) following the occurrence of one or more of the following, without your consent: (i) a material reduction of your duties, authority, or responsibilities, relative to your title, duties, authority, or responsibilities as in effect immediately prior to such reduction; provided that your title, duties, authority and responsibilities will not be deemed to be materially reduced if you have reasonably comparable duties, authorities and responsibilities as an employee with respect to the Company’s business following a Change of Control, regardless of any change in title or whether you provide services to a subsidiary, affiliate, business unit, division or otherwise; (ii) a material reduction by the Company of your annual base salary, except to the extent the base salaries of all other senior executives of the Company are similarly reduced; (iii) a material change in the location of the performance of your work, required by the Company, of more than fifty (50) miles from your principal place of residence. You may not resign for Good Reason without first providing the Company with written notice within ninety (90) days of the initial existence of the condition that you believe constitutes Good Reason specifically identifying the acts or omissions constituting the grounds for Good Reason and a reasonable cure period of not less than thirty (30) days following the date of such notice.

11. We also ask that, if you have not already done so, you disclose to the Company any and all agreements relating to your prior employment that may affect your eligibility to be employed by the Company or limit the manner in which you may be employed. It is the Company’s understanding that any such agreements will not prevent you from performing the duties of your position and you represent that such is the case. Moreover, you agree that, during the term of your employment with the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, occupation, consulting or other business activity directly related to the business in which the Company is now involved or becomes involved during the term of your employment, nor will you engage in any other activities that conflict with your obligations to the Company. Similarly, you agree not to bring any third-party confidential information to the Company, including that of your former employer, and that in performing your duties for the Company you will not in any way utilize any such information.

 

12. As a condition of your employment, you are also required to sign and comply with the Company’s standard Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement.

PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND INVENTIONS AGREEMENT

 

The following confirms and memorializes an agreement that COMPANY NAME INC, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and I have had since the commencement of my employment (which term, for purposes of this agreement, shall be deemed to include any relationship of service to the Company that I may have had prior to actually becoming an employee) with the Company in any capacity and that is and has been a material part of the consideration for my employment by Company:

 

1. I have not entered into, and I agree I will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict with this Agreement or my employment with Company. I will not violate any agreement with or rights of any third party or, except as expressly authorized by Company in writing hereafter, use or disclose my own or any third party’s confidential information or intellectual property when acting within the scope of my employment or otherwise on behalf of Company. Further, I have not retained anything containing any confidential information of a prior employer or other third party, whether or not created by me.

 

2. Company shall own all right, title and interest (including patent rights, copyrights, trade secret rights, mask work rights, sui generis database rights and all other intellectual property rights of any sort throughout the world) relating to any and all inventions (whether or not patentable), works of authorship, mask works, designs, know-how, ideas and information made or conceived or reduced to practice, in whole or in part, by me during the term of my employment with Company to and only to the fullest extent allowed (which is attached as Appendix A) (collectively “Inventions”) and I will promptly disclose all Inventions to Company. Without disclosing any third party confidential information, I will also disclose anything I believe is excluded so that the Company can make an independent assessment. I hereby make all assignments necessary to accomplish the foregoing. I shall further assist Company, at Company’s expense, to further evidence, record and perfect such assignments, and to perfect, obtain, maintain, enforce, and defend any rights specified to be so owned or assigned. I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Company as my agent and attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution, to act for and in my behalf to execute and file any document and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the foregoing with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me. If I wish to clarify that something created by me prior to my employment that relates to Company’s actual or proposed business is not within the scope of the foregoing assignment, I have listed it on Appendix B in a manner that does not violate any third party rights or disclose any confidential information. Without limiting Section 1 or Company’s other rights and remedies, if, when acting within the scope of my employment or otherwise on behalf of Company, I use or (except pursuant to this Section 2) disclose my own or any third party’s confidential information or intellectual property (or if any Invention cannot be fully made, used, reproduced, distributed and otherwise exploited without using or violating the foregoing), Company will have and I hereby grant Company a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable right and license to exploit and exercise all such confidential information and intellectual property rights.

 

3. To the extent allowed by law, paragraph 2 includes all rights of paternity, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights,” “artist’s rights,” “droit moral,” or the like (collectively “Moral Rights”). To the extent I retain any such Moral Rights under applicable law, I hereby ratify and consent to any action that may be taken with respect to such Moral Rights by or authorized by Company and agree not to assert any Moral Rights with respect thereto. I will confirm any such ratifications, consents and agreements from time to time as requested by the Company.

4. I agree that all Inventions and all other business, technical and financial information (including, without limitation, the identity of and information relating to customers or employees) I develop, learn or obtain during the term of my employment that relate to Company or the business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company or that are received by or for Company in confidence, constitute “Proprietary Information.” I will hold in confidence and not disclose or, except within the scope of my employment, use any Proprietary Information. However, I shall not be obligated under this paragraph with respect to information I can document is or becomes readily publicly available without restriction through no fault of mine. Upon termination of my employment, I will promptly return to Company all items containing or embodying Proprietary Information (including all copies), except that I may keep my personal copies of (i) my compensation records, (ii) materials distributed to shareholders generally and (iii) this Agreement. I also recognize and agree that I have no expectation of privacy with respect to Company’s telecommunications, networking or information processing systems (including, without limitation, stored computer files, embedded messages and voice messages) and that my activity and any files or messages on or using any of those systems may be monitored at any time without notice.

 

5. Until one year after the term of my employment, I will not encourage or solicit any employee or consultant of Company to leave Company for any reason (except for the bona fide firing of Company personnel within the scope of my employment).

 

6. I agree that during the term of my employment with Company (whether or not during business hours), I will not engage in any activity that is in any way competitive with the business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company, and I will not assist any other person or organization in competing or in preparing to compete with any business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company.

In addition, this Agreement does not purport to set forth all of the terms and conditions of my employment, and, as an employee of Company, I have obligations to Company which are not set forth in this Agreement. However, the terms of this Agreement govern over any inconsistent terms and can only be changed by a subsequent written agreement signed by the President of the Company.

My obligations under paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 also shall be binding upon my heirs, executors, assigns, and administrators and shall insure to the benefit of Company, its subsidiaries, successors and assigns.

9. Any dispute in the meaning, effect or validity of this Agreement shall be resolved in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. I further agree that if one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be illegal or unenforceable under applicable law, such illegal or unenforceable portion(s) shall be limited or excluded from this Agreement to the minimum extent required so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms.

(b) Form D and Blue Sky. The Company shall file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Buyer promptly after such filing. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to, qualify the Securities for sale to the Buyers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Buyers on or prior to the Closing Date. Without limiting any other obligation of the Company under this Agreement, the Company shall timely make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities required under all applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, all applicable federal securities laws and all applicable “Blue Sky” laws), and the Company shall comply with all applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws, statutes, rules, regulations and the like relating to the offering and sale of the Securities to the Buyers.

 

(c) Reporting Status. Until the date on which the Buyers shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities (the “Reporting Period”), the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would no longer require or otherwise permit such termination. From the time Form S-3 is available to the Company for the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall take all actions necessary to maintain its eligibility to register the Registrable Securities for resale by the Buyers on Form S-3.

 

(d) Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the proceeds from the sale of the Securities for working capital, but not, directly or indirectly, for the redemption or repurchase of any securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

 

(e) Financial Information. The Company agrees to send the following to each Investor (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) during the Reporting Period (i) unless the following are filed with the SEC through EDGAR and are available to the public through the EDGAR system, within one (1) Business Day after the filing thereof with the SEC, a copy of its Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, any interim reports or any consolidated balance sheets, income statements, stockholders’ equity statements and/or cash flow statements for any period other than annual, any Current Reports on Form 8-K and any registration statements (other than on Form S-8) or amendments filed pursuant to the 1933 Act, (ii) unless the following are either filed with the SEC through EDGAR or are otherwise widely disseminated via a recognized news release service (such as PR Newswire), on the same day as the release thereof, e-mail copies of all press releases issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (iii) unless the following are filed with the SEC through EDGAR, copies of any notices and other information made available or given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the making available or giving thereof to the stockholders.

 

(f) Listing. The Company shall promptly secure the listing or designation for quotation (as the case may be) of all of the Registrable Securities upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which the Common Stock is then listed or designated for quotation (as the case may be) (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain such listing or designation for quotation (as the case may be) of all Registrable Securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction Documents on such national securities exchange or automated quotation system. The Company shall maintain the Common Stock’s listing or authorization for quotation (as the case may be) on the Principal Market, The New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq American, the Nasdaq Global Market or the Nasdaq Global Select Market (each, an “Eligible Market”). Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action which could be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on an Eligible Market. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 4(f).

 

20

 

 

(g) Additional Registration Statements. Until the Applicable Date (as defined below) and at any time

 

(h) Dilutive Issuances. For so long as any Notes and Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall not, in any manner, enter into or affect any Dilutive Issuance (as defined in the Notes) if the effect of such Dilutive Issuance is to cause the Company to be required to issue upon conversion of any Notes or exercise of any Warrants any shares of Common Stock in excess of that number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market.

 

(i) Passive Foreign Investment Company. The Company shall conduct its business, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to conduct their respective businesses, in such a manner as will ensure that the Company will not be deemed to constitute a passive foreign investment company within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code.

 

(j) Restriction on Redemption and Cash Dividends. So long as any Notes and Warrants are outstanding, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, redeem, or declare or pay any cash dividend or distribution on, any securities of the Company without the prior express written consent of the Buyers.

 

(k) Corporate Existence. So long as any Buyer beneficially owns any Notes or Warrants, the Company shall not be party to any Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Notes) unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Notes and Warrants.

 

(l) Stock Splits. Until the Notes and Warrants are no longer outstanding, the Company shall not effect any stock combination, reverse stock split or other similar transaction (or make any public announcement or disclosure with respect to any of the foregoing) without the prior written consent of a majority of the Buyers.

 

(m) Conversion Procedures. Each of the form of Conversion Notice and Exercise Notice (as defined in the Notes and Warrants, respectively) included in the Notes and Warrants set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Buyers in order to convert the Notes and exercise the Warrants. Except as provided in Section 5(d), no additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of the Buyers to convert their Notes or exercise their Warrants. The Company shall honor conversions of the Notes and exercises of the Warrants and shall deliver the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Notes and Warrants.

 

(n) Regulation M. The Company will not take any action prohibited by Regulation M under the 1934 Act, in connection with the distribution of the Securities contemplated hereby.

None of the Company, any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the 1933 Act) or any person acting on behalf of the Company or such affiliate will solicit any offer to buy or offer or sell the Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Regulation D, including: (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar medium or broadcast over television or radio; and (ii) any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or general advertising.

 

21

 

 

(p) Integration. None of the Company, any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the 1933 Act), or any person acting on behalf of the Company or such affiliate will sell, offer for sale, or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in the 1933 Act) which will be integrated with the sale of the Securities in a manner which would require the registration of the Securities under the 1933 Act or require stockholder approval under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market and the Company will take all action that is appropriate or necessary to assure that its offerings of other securities will not be integrated for purposes of the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, with the issuance of Securities contemplated hereby.

 

(q) Notice of Disqualification Events. The Company will notify the Buyers in writing, prior to the Closing Date of (i) any Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person and (ii) any event that would, with the passage of time, become a Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person.

 

(r) Stockholder Approval. The Company shall either (x) if the Company shall have obtained the prior written consent of the requisite stockholders (the “Stockholder Consent”) to obtain the Stockholder Approval (as defined below), inform the stockholders of the Company of the receipt of the Stockholder Consent by preparing and filing with the SEC, as promptly as practicable after the date hereof.

 

(s) No Sales of Pre-Delivery Shares; Return of Pre-Delivery Shares. Each Buyer, severally, hereby covenants and agrees (i) not to sell any Pre-Delivery Shares issued to such Buyer until such time as such Pre-Delivery Shares shall become Delivery Shares (as defined in the Notes) and (ii) that if such Buyer holds any Pre-Delivery Shares after such date that no Notes are then held by such Buyer (whether following the conversion or redemption, as applicable, of all Notes then held by such Buyer, but after any applicable Delivery Share Applications (as defined in the Notes) related thereto), such remaining Pre-Delivery Shares shall be promptly returned by such Buyer to the Company for cancellation.

 

(t) Holding Period. For the purposes of Rule 144, the Company acknowledges that the holding period of the Pre-Delivery Shares may be tacked onto the holding period of the Notes and shall, consequently, be deemed to have been issued as of the Closing Date for purposes of Rule 144 and the Company agrees not to take a position contrary to this Section 4(dd).

 

(u) Closing Documents. On or prior to fourteen (14) calendar days after the Closing Date, the Company agrees to deliver, or cause to be delivered, to each Buyer and Rimon P.C., a complete closing set of the executed Transaction Documents, Securities and any other document required to be delivered to any party pursuant to Section 7 hereof or otherwise.

 

5. REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS; LEGEND.

 

(a) Register. The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Notes and Warrants in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Notes and Warrants have been issued (including the name and address of each transferee), the principal amount of the Notes and Warrants held by such Person and the number of Conversion Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of the Notes and the number of Warrant Shares exercisable pursuant to the terms of the Warrants. The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Buyer or its legal representatives.

 

22

 

 

(b) Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent and any subsequent transfer agent (as applicable, the “Transfer Agent”) in a form acceptable to each of the Buyers (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), registered in the name of each Buyer or its respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the Company upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants. The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b), and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof, will be given by the Company to its transfer agent with respect to the Securities, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company, as applicable, to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. If a Buyer effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities in accordance with Section 2(g), the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Buyer to effect such sale, transfer or assignment. In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144, the transfer agent shall issue such shares to such Buyer, assignee or transferee (as the case may be) without any restrictive legend in accordance with Section 5(d) below. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to a Buyer. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5(b), that a Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion referred to in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to the Company’s transfer agent on each Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). Any fees (with respect to the transfer agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinion or the removal of any legends on any of the Securities shall be borne by the Company.

 

(c) Legends. Each Buyer understands that the Securities have been issued (or will be issued in the case of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares) pursuant to an exemption from registration or qualification under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, and except as set forth below, the Securities shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

 

[NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE CONVERTIBLE HAVE BEEN][THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN] REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER (IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY), IN A FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD OR ELIGIBLE TO BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

 

23

 

 

(d) Removal of Legends. Certificates evidencing Securities shall not be required to contain the legend set forth in Section 5(c) above or any other legend (i) while a registration statement (including a Registration Statement) covering the resale of such Securities is effective under the 1933 Act, (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company), (iii) if such Securities are eligible to be sold, assigned or transferred under Rule 144 (provided that a Buyer provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such Securities are eligible for sale, assignment or transfer under Rule 144 which shall not include an opinion of Buyer’s counsel), (iv) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer (other than under Rule 144), provided that such Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of counsel to such Buyer, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or (v) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act (including, without limitation, controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). If a legend is not required pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall no later than two (2) Trading Days (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the date such Buyer delivers such legended certificate representing such Securities to the Company) following the delivery by a Buyer to the Company or the Transfer Agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Securities (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), together with any other deliveries from such Buyer as may be required above in this Section 5(d), as directed by such Buyer, either: (A) provided that the Company’s Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”) and such Securities are Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, credit the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Buyer shall be entitled to such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (B) if the Company’s Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to such Buyer, a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends, registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee (the date by which such credit is so required to be made to the balance account of such Buyer’s or such Buyer’s designee with DTC or such certificate is required to be delivered to such Buyer pursuant to the foregoing is referred to herein as the “Required Delivery Date”, and the date such shares of Common Stock are actually delivered without restrictive legend to such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC, as applicable, the “Share Delivery Date”). The Company shall be responsible for any Transfer Agent fees or DTC fees with respect to any issuance of Securities or the removal of any legends with respect to any Securities in accordance herewith.

(a) The obligation of the Company hereunder to issue and sell the Notes and Warrants to each Buyer at the Closing is subject to the satisfaction, at or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions, provided that these conditions are for the Company’s sole benefit and may be waived by the Company at any time in its sole discretion by providing each Buyer with prior written notice thereof:

 

(i) Such Buyer shall have executed each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and delivered the same to the Company.

24

(ii) The Company shall have duly executed and delivered to such Buyer each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the Company shall have duly executed and delivered to such Buyer a Warrant for such number of Warrant Shares as is set forth across from such Buyer’s name in column (3) of the Schedule of Buyers as being purchased by such Buyer at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement.

(vi) Each and every representation and warranty of the Company shall be true and correct as of the date when made and as of the Closing Date as though originally made at that time (except for representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date, which shall be true and correct as of such specific date) and the Company shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all respects with the covenants, agreements and conditions required to be performed, satisfied or complied with by the Company at or prior to the Closing Date.

(xii) Pursuant to an executed Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”), the Company has consummated the merger of Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, with and into OneMedNet Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“OneMedNet”), with OneMedNet continuing as the surviving corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”)

 

8. TERMINATION.

 

In the event that the Closing shall not have occurred with respect to a Buyer by October 1, 2023, then such Buyer shall have the right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement with respect to itself at any time on or after the close of business on such date without liability of such Buyer to any other party; provided, however, (i) the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8 shall not be available to such Buyer if the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to have been consummated by such date is the result of such Buyer’s breach of this Agreement and (ii) the abandonment of the sale and purchase of the Notes and Warrants shall be applicable only to such Buyer providing such written notice, provided further that no such termination shall affect any obligation of the Company under this Agreement to reimburse such Buyer for the expenses described in Section 4(g) above. Nothing contained in this Section 8 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

 

9. MISCELLANEOUS.

 

(a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of Wilmington, Delaware, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude any Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to such Buyer or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of such Buyer. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

 

26

 

 

(b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

 

(c) Headings; Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.

 

(d) Severability; Maximum Payment Amounts. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication that the following is required or applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by any of the Buyers, under the Transaction Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to any Buyer, or collection by any Buyer pursuant the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of such Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of such Buyer, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to such Buyer under the Transaction Documents. For greater certainty, to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by such Buyer under any of the Transaction Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.

 

27

 

 

(e) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by any Buyer with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Buyer has entered into with, or any instruments any Buyer has received from, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Buyer in the Company or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any rights of or benefits to any Buyer or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and any Buyer, or any instruments any Buyer received from the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party. No consideration (other than reimbursement of reasonable legal fees) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents, all holders of the Notes and Warrants. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Buyer has made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Company, any Subsidiary or otherwise.

 

(f) Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered:(i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by electronic mail (provided that such sent email is kept on file (whether electronically or otherwise) by the sending party and the sending party does not receive an automatically generated message from the recipient’s email server that such e- mail could not be delivered to such recipient); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, in each case, properly addressed to the party to receive the same. The mailing addresses and e-mail addresses for such communications shall be:

(g) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of any of the Notes and Warrants. A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights hereunder in connection with any transfer of any of its Securities without the consent of the Company, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned rights.

 

(h) No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, other than the Indemnitees referred to herein.

 

(i) Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants shall survive the Closings. Each Buyer shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

 

29

 

 

(j) Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

(k) Indemnification. In consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each holder of any Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary in any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained in any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure properly made by such Buyer, or (D) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities either as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable relief). To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 9(k) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

(l) Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of, arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of, and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for such Buyer (or its broker or other financial representative) to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.

 

(m) Remedies. Each Buyer and in the event of assignment by Buyer of its rights and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it or any Subsidiary fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its or such Subsidiary’s (as the case may be) obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law would inadequate relief to the Buyers. The Company therefore agrees that the Buyers shall be entitled to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

 

30

 

 

(n) Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Buyer exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company or any Subsidiary does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Buyer may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be), any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

 

(o) Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Buyer under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity, and the Company shall not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Buyer acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer in connection with such Buyer making its investment hereunder and that no other Buyer will be acting as agent of such Buyer in connection with monitoring such Buyer’s investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. The Company and each Buyer confirms that each Buyer has independently participated with the Company and its Subsidiaries in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement to effectuate the purchase and sale of the Securities contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any Buyer, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Buyer. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company, each Subsidiary and a Buyer, solely, and not between the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Buyers collectively and not between and among the Buyers.

ONEMEDNET CORPORATION

 

CODE OF ETHICS AND BUSINESS CONDUCT POLICY

 

(Adopted November 8, 2023)

 

I. INTRODUCTION

 

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of OneMedNet Corporation (the “Company”) has adopted this code of ethics and business conduct policy (this “Code”), as amended from time to time by the Board, and which is applicable to all of the Company’s directors, officers and employees (to the extent that employees are hired in the future) to:

 

  promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
     
  promote the full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as well as in other public communications made by or on behalf of the Company;
     
  promote compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
     
  deter wrongdoing; and
     
  require prompt internal reporting of breaches of, and accountability for adherence to, this Code.

 

In addition to following this Code in all aspects of business activities, the Company’s directors, officers and employees are expected to seek guidance in any situation where there is a question regarding compliance issues, whether with the letter or the spirit of the Company’s policies and applicable laws. Cooperation with this Code is essential to the continued success of the Company’s business and the cultivation and maintenance of its reputation as a good corporate citizen. Misconduct is never justified, even where sanctioned or ordered by an officer or other individual in a position of higher management. No individual, regardless of stature or position, can authorize actions that are illegal, or that jeopardize or violate Company standards. This Code sets forth general principles of conduct and ethics and is intended to work in conjunction with the policies and procedures that are covered in the Company’s specific policy statements.

 

Nothing in this Code prohibits the Company’s directors, officers or employees from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the SEC, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of U.S. federal law or regulation. No prior authorization from the Company is needed to make any such reports or disclosures and there is no duty to notify the Company that any such reports or disclosures have been made. The Company has a no-tolerance policy for retaliation against persons who raise good faith compliance, ethics or related issues.

 

This Code may be amended and modified by the Board. In this Code, references to the “Company” mean OneMedNet Corporation, Inc. and, in appropriate context, the Company’s subsidiaries, if any.

 

 

 

 

II. HONEST, ETHICAL AND FAIR CONDUCT

 

Each person owes a duty to the Company to act with integrity. Integrity requires, among other things, being honest, fair and candid. Deceit, dishonesty and subordination of principle are inconsistent with integrity. Service to the Company should never be subordinated to violations of laws or regulations, unscrupulous dealings or to personal gain and advantage.

 

Each person must:

 

  a. act with integrity, including being honest and candid while still maintaining the confidentiality of the Company’s information where required or when in the Company’s interests;
     
  b. observe all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
     
  c. comply with the requirements of applicable accounting and auditing standards, as well as Company policies, in order to maintain a high standard of accuracy and completeness in the Company’s financial records and other business-related information and data;
     
  d. adhere to a high standard of business ethics and not seek competitive advantage through unlawful or unethical business practices;
     
  e. deal fairly with the Company’s customers, suppliers, competitors, employees and independent contractors;
     
  f. refrain from taking advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts or any other unfair-dealing practice;
     
  g. protect the assets of the Company and ensure their proper use;
     
  h. until the earliest of (i) the Company’s liquidation, or (ii) such time that such person ceases to be an officer or director of the Company, in each case, to first present to the Company for the Company’s consideration, prior to presentation to any other entity, any business opportunity, but only if such opportunity is suitable for the Company, subject to the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws in effect at such time and subject to any other fiduciary or contractual obligations such officer or director may have; and
     
  i. avoid actual or apparent conflicts between personal, private interests and the interests of the Company, wherever possible, including receiving improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position, except as may be allowed under guidelines or resolutions approved by the Board (or the appropriate committee of the Board) or as disclosed in the Company’s public filings with the SEC. Anything that would be a conflict for a person subject to this Code will also be a conflict for a member of his or her immediate family or any other close relative.

 

Examples of conflict of interest situations include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

  any significant ownership interest in any supplier or customer;
     
  any consulting or employment relationship with any supplier or customer;
     
  the receipt of any money, non-nominal gifts or excessive entertainment from any entity with which the Company has current or prospective business dealings;
     
  selling anything to the Company or buying anything from the Company, except on the same terms and conditions as a third party would buy or sell a comparable item in an arm’s-length transaction;
     
  any other financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) involving the Company; and

 

2

 

 

  any other circumstance, event, relationship or situation in which the personal interest of a person subject to this Code interferes, or even appears to interfere, with the interests of the Company as a whole.

 

Any material transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest shall be disclosed to the Board.

 

III. CONFIDENTIALITY

 

The Company’s directors, officers and employees must maintain and protect the confidentiality of information entrusted to them by the Company, or that otherwise comes into their possession, while carrying out their duties and responsibilities, except when disclosure is authorized by the Company or legally mandated.

 

Confidential information encompasses all non-public information (including, for example, “inside information” or information that third-parties have entrusted to the Company) that may be of use to competitors or may otherwise be harmful to the Company or its key stakeholders, if disclosed. Financial information is of special sensitivity and should under all circumstances be considered confidential, except where its disclosure is approved by the Company or when the information has been publicly disseminated.

 

IV. DISCLOSURE

 

The Company strives to ensure that the contents of and the disclosures in the reports and documents that the Company files with the SEC and other public communications shall be full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable in accordance with applicable disclosure standards, including standards of materiality, where appropriate. Each person must:

 

  not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Company to others, whether within or outside the Company, including to the Company’s independent registered public accountants, governmental regulators, self-regulating organizations and other governmental officials, as appropriate; and
     
  in relation to his or her area of responsibility, properly review and critically analyze proposed disclosure for accuracy and completeness.

 

In addition to the foregoing, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each subsidiary of the Company (or persons performing similar functions), if any, and each other person that typically is involved in the financial reporting of the Company must familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure requirements applicable to the Company as well as the business and financial operations of the Company.

 

Each person must promptly bring to the attention of the Board of Directors any information he or she may have concerning (a) significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal and/or disclosure controls that could adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data or (b) any fraud that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s financial reporting, disclosures or internal controls.

 

V. COMPLIANCE

 

It is the Company’s obligation and policy to comply with all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. All directors, officers and employees of the Company are expected to understand, respect and comply with all of the laws, regulations, policies and procedures that apply to them in their positions with the Company. Employees are responsible for talking to their supervisors to determine which laws, regulations and Company policies apply to their position and what training is necessary to understand and comply with them.

 

Directors, officers and employees are directed to specific policies and procedures available to persons they supervise.

 

3

 

 

VI. REPORTING AND ACCOUNTABILITY

 

The Board is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented to it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. Any person who becomes aware of any existing or potential breach of this Code is required to notify the Board promptly. Failure to do so is, in and of itself, a breach of this Code.

 

Specifically, each person must:

 

  Notify the Board promptly of any existing or potential violation of this Code.

 

  Not retaliate against any other person for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith.

 

The Company will follow the following procedures in investigating and enforcing this Code and in reporting on this Code:

 

  The Board will take all appropriate action to investigate any breaches reported to it.

 

  Upon determination by the Board that a breach has occurred, the Board (by majority decision) will take or authorize such disciplinary or preventive action as it deems appropriate, after consultation with the Company’s internal or external legal counsel, up to and including dismissal or, in the event of criminal or other serious violations of law, notification of the SEC or other appropriate law enforcement authorities.

 

No person following the above procedure shall, as a result of following such procedure, be subject by the Company or any officer or employee thereof to discharge, demotion suspension, threat, harassment or, in any manner, discrimination against such person in terms and conditions of employment.

 

VII. WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS

 

Any waiver (defined below) or an implicit waiver (defined below) from a provision of this Code for the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions or any amendment (as defined below) to this Code is required to be disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. In lieu of filing a Current Report on Form 8-K to report any such waivers or amendments, the Company may provide such information on its website, in the event that it establishes one in the future, and if it keeps such information on the website for at least 12 months and discloses the website address as well as any intention to provide such disclosures in this manner in its most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

A “waiver” means the approval by the Board of a material departure from a provision of this Code. An “implicit waiver” means the Company’s failure to take action within a reasonable period of time regarding a material departure from a provision of this Code that has been made known to an executive officer of the Company. An “amendment” means any amendment to this Code other than minor technical, administrative or other non-substantive amendments hereto.

 

Any request for a waiver of any provision of this Code must be in writing and addressed to the Board. All persons should note that it is not the Company’s intention to grant or to permit waivers from the requirements of this Code. The Company expects full compliance with this Code.

 

VIII. INSIDER INFORMATION AND SECURITIES TRADING

 

The Company’s directors, officers or employees who have access to material, non-public information are not permitted to use that information for security trading purposes or for any purpose unrelated to the Company’s business. It is also against the law to trade or to “tip” others who might make an investment decision based on inside company information. For example, using non-public information to buy or sell the Company securities, options in the Company securities or the securities of any Company supplier, customer, competitor or potential target is prohibited. The consequences of insider trading violations can be severe. These rules also apply to the use of material, non-public information about other companies (including, for example, the Company’s customers, competitors, potential business partners and potential targets). In addition to directors, officers or employees, these rules apply to such person’s spouse, children, parents and siblings, as well as any other family members living in such person’s home.

IX. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OTHER RECORDS

 

All of the Company’s books, records, accounts and financial statements must be maintained in reasonable detail, must appropriately reflect the Company’s transactions and must both conform to applicable legal requirements and to the Company’s system of internal controls. Unrecorded or “off the books” funds or assets should not be maintained unless permitted by applicable law or regulation.

 

Records should always be retained or destroyed according to the Company’s record retention policies. In accordance with those policies, in the event of litigation or governmental investigation, please consult the Board or the Company’s internal or external legal counsel.

 

Any and all reports received by the Company of questionable accounting, violations of internal accounting controls, or any other auditing or financial matters, or the reporting of fraudulent financial information or other questionable conduct that are submitted to an officer of the Company will be handled as follows:

 

  All reports received will be logged and include, among other things: (1) the date the report was received, (2) a description of the report, (3) the reporting party (if provided), and (4) the status and disposition of an investigation of the report.

 

  The Secretary of the Company will promptly submit to the Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) all reports received. The Audit Committee shall direct and oversee an investigation of all reports as it determines to be appropriate. The Audit Committee may also delegate the oversight and investigation of reports to the appropriate members of the Company’s management. The Audit Committee may request special treatment for any report and may re-assume the direction and oversight of an investigation of any report delegated to members of our management.

 

X. IMPROPER INFLUENCE ON CONDUCT OF AUDITS

 

No director or officer, or any other person acting under the direction thereof, shall directly or indirectly take any action to coerce, manipulate, mislead or fraudulently influence any public or certified public accountant engaged in the performance of an audit or review of the financial statements of the Company or take any action that such person knows or should know that if successful could result in rendering the Company’s financial statements materially misleading. Any person who believes such improper influence is being exerted should report such action to such person’s supervisor, or if that is impractical under the circumstances, to any of the Company’s directors.

 

Types of conduct that could constitute improper influence include, but are not limited to, directly or indirectly:

 

  Offering or paying bribes or other financial incentives, including future employment or contracts for non-audit services;
     
  Providing an auditor with an inaccurate or misleading legal analysis;
     
  Threatening to cancel or canceling existing non-audit or audit engagements if the auditor objects to the Company’s accounting;
     
  Seeking to have a partner removed from the audit engagement because the partner objects to the Company’s accounting;
     
  Blackmailing; and
     
  Making physical threats.

XI. ANTI-CORRUPTION LAWS

 

The Company complies with the anti-corruption laws of the countries in which it does business, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (“FCPA”). Directors, officers, employees and agents, such as third-party sales representatives, shall not take or cause to be taken any action that would reasonably result in the Company not complying with such anti-corruption laws, including the FCPA. If you are authorized to engage agents on the Company’s behalf, you are responsible for ensuring they are reputable and for obtaining a written agreement for them to uphold the Company’s standards in this area. The Company will comply with the Policy Statement Regarding Compliance and Ethics attached hereto as Schedule A.

 

XII. VIOLATIONS

 

The Board will investigate any reported violations and will oversee an appropriate response, including corrective action and preventative measures. Any director, officer or employee who violates this Code will face appropriate, case specific disciplinary action, which may include demotion or discharge. Such action is in addition to any civil or criminal liability which might be imposed by any court or regulatory agency.

 

XIII. OTHER POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

 

Any other policy or procedure set out by the Company in writing or made generally known to employees, officers or directors of the Company prior to the date hereof or hereafter are separate requirements and remain in full force and effect.

 

XIV. INQUIRIES

 

All inquiries and questions in relation to this Code or its applicability to particular people or situations should be addressed to the Board, or such other compliance officer as shall be designated from time to time by the Company.

Policy Statement Regarding Compliance & Ethics

 

I. INTRODUCTION

 

OneMedNet Corporation, Inc. (the “Company”) is committed to the highest ethical standards, and expects the same of its directors, officers and employees (to the extent that employees are hired in the future), Third Party (as defined below) representatives, and joint venture partners. Consistent with this commitment, all Company employees are expected to understand and comply with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations applicable to their job responsibilities at the Company.

 

This Policy Statement sets forth the Company’s general requirements and expectations relating to several key areas of business conduct and ethics. At the same time, this Policy Statement is not intended to be a comprehensive rulebook and cannot address every situation that a Company director, officer and employee (to the extent that employees are hired in the future) may face. If any Company director, officer or employee (to the extent that employees are hired in the future) feels uncomfortable about a situation or has any doubts about whether a situation or course of conduct is consistent with the Company’s ethical standards, such individuals are advised to seek help from the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

 

II. COMPLIANCE WITH ALL LAWS INCLUDING BRIBERY AND OTHER CORRUPT PAYMENTS LAWS

 

The Company shall comply with all applicable laws, including applicable laws governing bribery, extortion, kickbacks, and the giving or receiving of gifts or hospitality to “Government Officials.”1 Consistent with this commitment, Company directors, officers or employees (to the extent that employees are hired in the future) are prohibited from offering, promising, giving, soliciting, accepting or authorizing another to offer, promise, give, solicit or accept anything of value, either directly or indirectly, for the purpose of corruptly influencing the decision of any person, or to otherwise obtain or retain business or a business advantage in connection with the Company. This includes all local, state and federal corruption laws, as well as international laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, to the extent the Company is conducting business outside of the United States.

 

III. FACILITATION PAYMENTS

 

It is the Company’s policy not to make or authorize anyone to make any small, unofficial payment to secure or expedite the performance of a routine or necessary action by a Government Official (a “Facilitation Payment”)2 in connection with the Company.

 

IV. GIFTS & HOSPITALITY

 

The Company requires that all gifts and hospitality promised, offered or provided on behalf of the Company be reasonable, related to a legitimate business purpose, and lawful under applicable laws and regulations, including those relating to the nature and amount of gifts and hospitality that can be provided to Government Officials.

 

 

1 Government Official” means: (i) any person who is an officer, officeholder, full or part-time employee or representative of: (1) a national, state, regional, provincial, city, county or other local government; (2) independent agencies of any government; or (3) state-owned businesses or state-controlled businesses (e.g., a representative of a sovereign wealth fund or public pension fund, an affiliate of a state-owned company owning distressed assets); (ii) political party officials and candidates for political office; and (iii) any employees of quasi-public or non-governmental international organizations (sometimes called “NGOs”).

 

2 A “Facilitation Payment” may take the form of any kind of advantage, and is not limited to cash or cash equivalents.

 

7

 

 

No Company employee or Third Party may offer, promise, give, solicit, accept or authorize another to offer, promise, give, solicit or accept any gift or hospitality for the purpose of corruptly influencing the decision of any person, or to otherwise obtain or retain business or a business advantage on behalf of the Company.

 

All gifts and hospitality are required to be approved by appropriate Company personnel before being provided to any external party, and shall be documented fairly and accurately in the Company’s books and records.

 

V. POLITICAL AND CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS

 

It is the policy of the Company that its funds or assets not be used to make a political or charitable contribution,3 unless prior approval has been given by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Company shall not reimburse any Company employee or Third Party for their own personal political or charitable contributions. When Company employees participate in private political affairs, those employees should be careful to make it clear that their views and actions are their own, and not made on behalf of the Company.

 

Company employees are prohibited from making or authorizing any person to make a political or charitable contribution on behalf of the Company for the purpose of corruptly influencing the decision of any person, or to otherwise obtain or retain business or a business advantage.

 

VI. RELATIONSHIPS WITH THIRD PARTIES

 

The Company shall conduct reasonable commercial and risk-based due diligence on all third party vendors, suppliers, agents, representatives, and intermediaries (each a “Third Party” and collectively “Third Parties”) working on behalf of the Company.

 

All agreements with Third Parties relating to the Company shall be reduced to writing, accurately reflect the actual goods or services to be provided by the Third Party, and include appropriate anti-corruption compliance representations and warranties.

 

All payments to Third Parties made by or on behalf of the Company shall be made transparently, consistent with applicable written agreements, and reflected accurately in the Company’s books and records.

 

VII. DISCRIMINATION & HARASSMENT

 

Company employees shall not discriminate, harass, or authorize any discrimination or harassment on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, marital status, citizenship, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by law.

 

The Company will not tolerate or authorize any unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or any other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature by any Company employee or Third Party in connection with the Company if and when: (i) submission to such conduct was made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual’s employment; (ii) submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for employment decisions affecting such individual; or (iii) such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual’s work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment.

 

 

3 For purposes of this provision, the term “political contribution” refers to any contribution of something of value to an incumbent elected official, a candidate for elected office, a political party, a political committee, a political organization, a ballot measure committee, an inaugural committee, or a member of the transition team of a successful candidate. The term “charitable contribution” refers to any contribution of something of value to a charitable or philanthropic cause, including, but not limited to donations of cash or cash equivalents to registered charities.

 

8

 

 

VIII. MONEY LAUNDERING

 

It is the policy of the Company to prohibit and actively prevent money laundering and any activity that could conceivably facilitate money laundering, the funding of terrorism, or other criminal activity. Consistent with this policy, the local Company partner shall develop appropriate procedures to help ensure that the Company does not facilitate or engage in any money laundering activities.

 

IX. HEALTH, SAFETY, AND ENVIRONMENT

 

The Company is committed to conducting all business activities in a responsible manner, which helps ensure the health, safety, and security of people, preservation of the environment, quality of our business offerings, security, legal, quality, and regulatory requirements in all our business activities.

 

X. RECORDKEEPING

 

The Company shall make and maintain records that fairly and accurately reflect the business transactions of the Company.

 

XI. COOPERATION WITH AUDITS AND INSPECTIONS

 

The Company, including each Company employee and Third Party, shall cooperate fully with any and all requests made by its shareholders relating to the review and/or inspection of books and records relating to the Company.

 

XII. REPORTED CONCERNS

 

The Company encourages reporting of suspected violations of this policy statement, violations of law, and perceived incidents of discrimination or harassment. The Company will not tolerate actions by Company directors, officers or employees (to the extent that employees are hired in the future) or Third Parties to discourage or authorize discouragement of any kind against any individual who reports a perceived incident of discrimination or harassment in relation to the Company.

 

Retaliation of any kind against any individual who reports any perceived incident of discrimination or harassment, or who cooperates with any investigation relating to such reports in good faith is prohibited. Engaging in any form of retaliation may subject Company personnel to discipline, up to and including termination.

 

XIII. ACCOUNTABILITY

 

Failure to comply with the guidelines and requirements set forth in this Policy Statement is a serious matter. Violating applicable laws, regulations, or the policies set forth in this document, or otherwise engaging in illegal, improper, or unethical conduct may result in appropriate remedial action.

DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

OneMedNet Corporation (f/k/a Data Knights Acquisition Corp.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 8, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity for the period February 8, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2023, relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), and, since the closing of the initial public offering, the Company has entered into a merger agreement (as described below), and continued a search for a Business Combination candidate. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

 

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on May 6, 2021. On May 11, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is described in Note 3.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 585,275 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $5,852,750, which is described in Note 4.

 

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on May 11, 2021, an amount of $117,300,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) which may be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below.

 

Transaction costs of the Initial Public Offering amounted to $6,771,112, of which $2,300,000 was for underwriting fees paid at the time of the IPO, $4,025,000 was for deferred underwriting commissions, and $446,112 was for other offering costs.

 

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering $959,560 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account available for working capital purposes. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has $1,537 of cash and a working capital deficit of $2,943,835.

 

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing of a definitive agreement to enter a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully affect a Business Combination.

On April 25, 2022, the Company, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”), entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with OneMedNet Corporation, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Target”, and together with the Company and Merger Sub, the “Parties”) and Paul Casey, as seller representative (“Casey”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the Business Combination, the Parties will effect the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Target, with the Target continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”), as a result of which all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Target shall be exchanged shares of the Class A Common Stock of the Company upon the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement.

 

On May 5, 2022, the Company extended the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination from May 11, 2022 to August 11, 2022 (the “First Extension”). The First Extension was the first of two three-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents.

 

On August 10, 2022, the Company extended the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination from August 11, 2022 to November 11, 2022 (the “Second Extension”). The Second Extension was the second of two three-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents.

 

On October 27, 2022, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement with the SEC in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by the stockholders of the Company at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held on November 11, 2022 (the “Special Meeting”).

 

On November 11, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. ET, the Company held a virtual special meeting of its stockholders. At the special meeting, Company stockholders entitle to vote at the special meeting cast their votes and approved the Trust Amendment Proposal, pursuant to which the Trust Agreement was amended to extend the date on which Continental must liquidate the Trust Account established in connection with the IPO if the Company has not completed its initial business combination, from November 11, 2022 to August 11, 2023 (or such earlier date after November 11, 2022, as determined by the Company Board). As a part of Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved amendments to its second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Extension Amendment”) and the investment management trust agreement (the “Trust Agreement”) between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (“Continental”), and the Company governing the trust account (the “Trust Account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering dated May 11, 2021 (the “Trust Amendment”), which together allow the Company to extend the deadline by which it must complete its initial business combination by up to nine one-month periods. In connection with each such extension, Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor, shall cause $0.045 per outstanding share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, or approximately $122,920, to be deposited in the Trust Account. On July 12, 2023, the Company elected to exercise its ninth of nine one-month extension to the Termination Date, which extended its deadline to complete its initial business combination to August 11, 2023, by depositing $0.045 per share for each Public Share outstanding after giving effect to the redemptions disclosed above, or approximately $122,920, was deposited in the Trust Account.

 

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

In connection with the proposed Business Combination with the Target, the Company will provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Class A Common Stock upon the completion of such Business Combination in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve such Business Combination. In the event the proposed Business Combination with the Target is not consummated, in connection with an alternative proposed initial business combination, the Company will provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. In connection with the voting on the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal at the special meeting, holders of 8,768,456 shares of Class A Common Stock exercised their right to redeem those shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.42 per share, for an aggregate of approximately $91.4 million. Following the payment of the redemptions, the Trust Account had a balance of approximately $28.5 million.

 

On August 11, 2023, at 1:00 p.m. ET, the Company held a virtual special meeting of its stockholders. At the Special Meeting, the Company stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting cast their votes and approved the proposal (the “Trust Amendment Proposal”) to authorize the Company to enter into Amendment No. 2 to the Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to amend the Trust Agreement to allow the Company to extend beyond August 11, 2023 the date by which either the Company must have completed its initial business combination or Continental must liquidate the Trust Account established in connection with the IPO (the “Trust Account”). Following approval of the Trust Amendment Proposal by the Stockholders, the Company and Continental promptly entered into the Trust Agreement Amendment. At the Special Meeting, the Stockholders approved the Extension Amendment Proposal to amend Company’s Charter and authorized the Company to adopt and file the Amended Charter with the Secretary of State of Delaware, which the Company promptly filed following the Stockholders’ approval. The stockholders approved amendments to the Company’s charter and trust agreement allowing the Company to extend its termination date in a series of up to nine (9) one-month extensions until May 11, 2024 in exchange for depositing into its trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company the lesser of $75,000 or $0.045 per share for each public share outstanding (the “Extension Amount”). In connection with the voting on the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal at the Special Meeting, holders of 1,018,846 shares of Class A ordinary shares exercised the right to redeem such shares for cash.

 

On August 11, 2023, the Company deposited $75,000 into the Company’s trust account, allowing the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from August 11, 2023 to September 11, 2023 (the “Extension”). The Extension is the first of nine (9) one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has executed two one-month extensions, out of the nine, resulting in deposits of approximately $150,000 into the Trust Account.

 

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

Based on the above, the Company will have until May 11, 2024 to consummate a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination on May 11, 2024 at the election of the Company subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of up $2,300,000 since the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($0.10 per unit), into the Trust Account, or as extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation) (the “Combination Period”), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00). There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Founder Shares (as defined below) or the shares of Class A Common Stock and the warrants that are included as components of the Private Placement Units. Such warrants will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

 

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.20 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the day of liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure its stockholders that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the Company’s officers or directors will indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

 

Business Combination with OneMedNet

 

On November 7, 2023, the Company consummated its initial business combination (the “Business Combination”) with OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation), a Delaware corporation (“OneMedNet”), pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of April 25, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), OneMedNet, Data Knights, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor” or “Purchaser Representative”) in its capacity as the representative of the stockholders of the Company, and Paul Casey in his capacity as the representative of the stockholders of OneMedNet (“Seller Representative”).

 

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

On July 22, 2022, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-266274) (the “Form S-4”, as amended on September 20, 2022, November 10, 2022, January 3, 2023, February 3, 2023, April 11, 2023, July 5, 2023, August 2, 2023, August 8, 2023, August 29, 2023 and September 21, 2023) with the SEC, which includes the proxy statement/prospectus/information statement distributed to holders of the Company’s ordinary shares in connection with the Company’s solicitation for proxies for the vote by the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Business Combination and other matters as described in the Form S-4. The Form S-4 was declared effective by the SEC on September 22, 2023, and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus/information statement was mailed to the Company’s shareholders of record on the record date for voting on the Business Combination. The Business Combination closed on November 13, 2023. Effective November 7, 2023, the Company’s units ceased trading, and effective November 8, 2023, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ONMD” and warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ONMDW.”

 

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP, whereby the Company is treated as the acquired company and OneMedNet is treated as the acquirer. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of OneMedNet issuing stock for the net assets of the Company, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of the Company were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Subsequent presentations of the results of operations presented for the period prior to the Business Combination will be for those of OneMedNet.

 

OneMedNet has been determined to be the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination based on the following predominate factors:

 

  OneMedNet’s existing stockholders have the greatest voting interest in the combined entity;
  OneMedNet has the ability to nominate a majority of the initial members of the OneMedNet Board;
  OneMedNet’s senior management is the senior management of the combined entity; and
  OneMedNet is the larger entity based on historical operating activity and has the larger employee base.

 

Going Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had cash held outside of the Trust Account of $1,537 and $30,870, respectively. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete our initial business combination. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31,2022, the Company had working capital deficit of $3,057,188 and $1,945,267, respectively.

 

The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of its IPO were satisfied through the proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of the Founder Shares and proceed from the promissory note from sponsor of $78,925, which was repaid upon closure of the IPO. Subsequent to the IPO, the Company’s liquidity will be satisfied through a portion of the net proceeds from IPO held outside of the Trust Account.

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had investments of $19,308,261 and $29,029,416 held in the Trust Account, respectively. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less taxes paid and deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial business combination. We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we withdraw $498,697 of interest earned on the Trust Account pay Delaware Franchise Tax and Income Tax. During the period ended December 31, 2022, we withdraw $299,601 interest earned on the Trust Account to pay Delaware Franchise Tax. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

 

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates the continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our financing and acquisition plans. Management plans to address this uncertainty during the period leading up to the business combination, however this cannot be guaranteed. The Company will have until May 11, 2024 to consummate a Business Combination. If our initial business combination is not consummated by May 11, 2024, less than one year after the date the financial statements are issued, then our existence will terminate, and we will distribute all amounts in the trust account. The Company intends to complete a business combination before the liquidation date and no adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the company be required to liquidate after such date. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate an initial business combination by May 11, 2024 and/or have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs. Based upon the above analysis, management determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with our initial Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Accounts to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Accounts would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units identical to the Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the financial statement. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into law. The IR Act provides for, among other measures, a new 1% U.S. federal excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from whom the shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased. For purposes of calculating the excise tax, however, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury Department”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out, and prevent the abuse or avoidance of, the excise tax. The IR Act applies only to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022.

 

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

Any redemption or other repurchase effected by us that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination or otherwise, may be subject to this excise tax. Whether and to what extent we would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination will depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, (ii) the nature and amount of any PIPE financing or other equity issuances in connection with the Business Combination (or any other equity issuances within the same taxable year of the Business Combination) and (iii) the content of any regulations and other guidance issued by the Treasury Department and/or the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by us and not by the redeeming holder, it could cause a reduction in the value of our stock. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a business Combination in the required time and redeem 100% of our public shares in accordance with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation) could be subject to the excise tax, in which case the amount that would otherwise be received by our stockholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.

 

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. The IR Act applies only to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022.

 

Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holders, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination.

 

At this time, it has been determined that the IR Act tax provisions would have an impact to the Company’s fiscal 2023 tax provision as there were redemptions by the public stockholders in August 2023; as a result, the Company recorded $113,353 excise tax liability as of September 30, 2023. The Company will continue to monitor for updates to the Company’s business along with guidance issued with respect to the IR Act to determine whether any adjustments are needed to the Company’s tax provision in future periods.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars and conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Emerging growth company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company had $1,537 and $30,870 in cash and no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

 

 

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Trust Account

 

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $117,300,000 ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement was held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which will be invested only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.

 

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

 

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred, presented as offering costs allocated to warrants in the consolidated statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Public Shares were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

 

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

 

The Company accounts for its shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of common stock (including shares of common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A Common Stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events.

 

On September 30, 2023, there are 585,275 shares of Class A Common Stock related to the Private Placement Units (Note 8) outstanding, which are not subject to redemption, and 1,712,698 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, which are subject to possible redemption.

 

If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The accretion or remeasurement is treated as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital).

 

 

 

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Class A Common Stock reflected on the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

 

   2023   2022 
   For the Nine Months Ended 
   September 30, 
   2023   2022 
Contingently redeemable Class A Common Stock – Opening Balance  $28,750,110   $117,300,000 
Less:          
Redemption of Class A Common Stock, including interest   (11,335,260)     
Plus:          
Re-measurement of carrying value to redemption value   1,794,994    2,833,869 
Contingently redeemable Class A Common Stock - Ending Balance   19,209,844    120,133,869 

 

Net income (loss) per share

 

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and warrants issued as components of the Private Placement Units (the “Placement Warrants”) since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.

 

The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. The contractual formula utilized to calculate the redemption amount approximates fair value. The Class feature to redeem at fair value means that there is effectively only one class of stock. Changes in fair value are not considered a dividend for the purposes of the numerator in the earnings per share calculation. Net income per common share is computed by dividing the pro rata net income (loss) between the redeemable shares and the non-redeemable shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each of the periods. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the IPO since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive. The warrants are exercisable for 12,085,275 shares of common stock in the aggregate.

Concentration of credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. At September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, except warrant liabilities (See Note 9).

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

 

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the United States is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

 

Our effective tax rate was (12.15)% and 0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our effective tax rate was (30.10)% and 0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, due to transaction costs and the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, “Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options” (Subtopic 470-20) and “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Introducing Advisor Agreement

 

On June 26, 2021, the Company entered into an introducing advisor agreement (the “Introducing Advisor Agreement”) with ARC Group Limited, the Company’s financial advisor (“ARC”), pursuant to which ARC will make strategic introductions to the Company of potential target companies and/or their subsidiaries, affiliates, or representatives (each an “Advisor Target”) who may be interested in potential business combinations with the Company. In consideration for ARC’s services under the Introducing Advisor Agreement, we agreed to (i) pay to ARC (a) a retainer of $50,000 upon execution of the Introducing Advisor Agreement and (b) a success fee of $100,000 upon the closing our initial business combination, and (ii) cause to be issued to ARC equity interests in the post-combination company representing a five-percent (5%) ownership interest in the post-combination company, if at any time prior to June 25, 2022 (the “Termination Date”), or within six (6) months after the consummation of an initial business combination or any financing with any Advisor Target or any affiliate of an Advisor Target (the “Equity Issuance”).

 

On March 22, 2022, the Company and ARC entered into the First Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, pursuant to which both parties agreed that the Company would pay to ARC an additional success fee equivalent to five percent (5%) on any PIPE that was brought by ARC in connection with the Company’s initial business combination upon the closing of the Company’s initial business combination.

 

On December 31, 2022, the Company and ARC entered into the Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, pursuant to which both parties agreed to extend the Termination Date to December 31, 2024, and to change the performance condition for the Equity Issuance from the closing of an initial business combination to the execution of a business combination agreement. On December 31, 2022, following the execution of the Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, the performance condition for the Equity Issuance was deemed to have been met, and ARC was issued 1,378,517 shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, up to 143,766 shares of which are subject to forfeiture if the public stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to any of the remaining outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

 

Founder Shares

 

On February 25, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,875,000 shares of Class B Common Stock (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. On February 25, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 15,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, 15,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and 5,000 shares to two of the Company’s independent directors. Following the determination of the Company’s third independent director, on March 23, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 5,000 shares to such independent director. The Founder Shares which the Sponsor and its permitted transferees will collectively own, on an as-converted basis, represent 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. In connection with the Introducing Advisors Agreement, on December 31, 2022, ARC was granted 1,378,517 shares of Class B common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, up to 143,766 of which are subject to forfeiture by ARC if the Company’s public shareholders exercise redemption rights with respect to any of outstanding shares of Class A common stock.

 

 

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)

 

The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or similar transaction that results in the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.

 

Promissory Note — Related Party

 

On February 8, 2021, the Sponsor committed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). The Note was non-interest bearing and was payable on the earlier of July 31, 2021 or the completion of the Initial Public Offering. On June 1, 2021, the $78,925 outstanding under the promissory note was repaid in full. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there is no amount outstanding under the promissory note.

 

Related Party Loans

 

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a Business Combination into units at a price of $10.00 per unit. The Units will be identical to the Private Placement Units. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there is $477,548 and $207,081 outstanding under the Working Capital Loans, respectively.

 

 

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)

 

The Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, the Company may, by resolution of the Company’s board if requested by the Sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (for a total of up to 18 months to complete a Business Combination), subject to the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account as set out below. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, in order for the time available for the Company to consummate the initial Business Combination to be extended, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon five business days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account $1,150,000 since the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($0.10 per unit), on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each of the available three month extensions, providing a total possible Business Combination period of 18 months at a total payment value of $2,300,000 since the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($0.10 per unit) (the “Extension Loans”). Any such payments would be made in the form of non-interest-bearing loans. If the Company completes its initial Business Combination, the Company will, at the option of the Sponsor, repay the Extension Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company or convert a portion or all of the total loan amount into units at a price of $10.00 per unit, which units will be identical to the Private Placement Units. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company will repay such loans only from funds held outside of the Trust Account. Furthermore, the letter agreement among the Company and the Company’s officers, directors, and the Sponsor contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor will agree to waive its right to be repaid for such loans to the extent there is insufficient funds held outside of the Trust Account in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for the Company to complete the initial Business Combination. The public stockholders will not be afforded an opportunity to vote on the extension of time to consummate an initial Business Combination from 12 months to 18 months described above or redeem their shares in connection with such extensions. Pursuant to the foregoing, on May 5, 2022, the Company extended the date by which the Company had to consummate a business combination from May 11, 2022 to August 11, 2022. On August 10, 2022, the Company extended the date by which the Company had to consummate a business combination from August 11, 2022 to November 11, 2022.

 

As described in Note 1, on August 11, 2023, the Stockholders of the Company approved the Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment to allow the Company to extend the deadline by which it must complete its initial business combination by up to nine one-month periods from August 11, 2023. In connection with each such extension, Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor, caused approximately $75,000, deposited in the Trust Account in connection with the exercise of the monthly extension. In connection with each such extension, the Company will have until May 11, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination(see Note 10). On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there is $3,556,278 and $2,545,838 outstanding under the Extension Loan, respectively.

 

Administrative Services Arrangement

 

Commencing on the date of the prospectus and until completion of the Company’s Business Combination or liquidation, the Company may reimburse ARC Group Ltd., an affiliate of the Sponsor, up to an amount of $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative support. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we have incurred $30,000 in fees under this agreement, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we have incurred $90,000 in fees under this agreement, respectively.

Registration Rights

 

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on May 6, 2021, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units (including the securities contained therein), the units (including the securities contained therein) that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans, and any shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants and any shares of Class A Common Stock, warrants (and underlying Class A Common Stock) that may be issued upon conversion of the units issued as part of the working capital loans and Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the founder shares are entitled to registration rights. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

Underwriters Agreement

 

The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments at the Initial Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The aforementioned option was exercised on May 11, 2021.

 

The underwriter was paid a cash underwriting discount of two percent (2.00%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $2,300,000. In addition, the underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of three and a half percent (3.50%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $4,025,000. The deferred fee was placed in the Trust Account and will be paid in cash upon the closing of a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

 

Right of First Refusal

 

For a period beginning on May 7, 2021 and ending 12 months from the closing of a business combination, we have granted the underwriters a right of first refusal to act as lead-left book running manager and lead left manager for any and all future private or public equity, convertible and debt offerings during such period. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(E)(i), such right of first refusal shall not have a duration of more than three years from the effective date of our Registration Statement.

 

First Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement

 

On March 22, 2022, the Company and ARC entered into the First Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, pursuant to which both parties agreed that the Company would pay to ARC an additional success fee equivalent to five percent (5%) on any PIPE that was brought by ARC in connection with an initial business combination upon the closing of an initial business combination.

 

Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement

 

On December 31, 2022, the Company and ARC entered into the Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, pursuant to which both parties agreed to extend the Termination Date to December 31, 2024, and to change the performance condition for the Equity Issuance from the closing of an initial business combination to the execution of a business combination agreement. On December 31, 2022, following the execution of the Second Amendment to the Introducing Advisor Agreement, the performance condition for the Equity Issuance was deemed to have been met, and ARC was issued 1,378,517 shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, up to 143,766 shares of which are subject to forfeiture if the public stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to any of the remaining outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

WARRANT LIABILITY

NOTE 7. WARRANT LIABILITY

 

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

 

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A Common Stock is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

 

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days after the closing of its initial Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the registration statement or a new registration statement covering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, to cause such registration statement to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A Common Stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of the Company’s initial business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company 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 the Company’s shares of Class A Common Stock are 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, it may, at its 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 the Company so elects, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event it does not so elect, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

 

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

 

in whole and not in part;
   
at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;
   
upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
   
if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and certain issuances of Class A Common Stock and equity-linked securities) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing no earlier than the date the warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day before the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

 

 

NOTE 7. WARRANT LIABILITY (Continued)

 

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A Common Stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Window and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless. The Placement Warrants were identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Proposed Public Offering, except that the Placement Warrants and the Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

 

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A Common Stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A Common Stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Company’s initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of such initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

 

The Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Proposed Public Offering, except that the Placement Warrants and the Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

 

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2022, the Company accounted for the aggregate 12,085,275 warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the 11,500,000 Public Warrants and the 585,275 Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company will classify each warrant as a liability at its fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no preferred shares issued or outstanding.

 

Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 1,712,698 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding that were subject to possible redemption and 585,275 shares of non-redeemable Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding that were issued in connection with the private placement (Note 4).

 

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share. On February 25, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 15,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, 15,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and 5,000 shares to two of the Company’s independent directors. Following the determination of the Company’s third independent director, on March 23, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 5,000 shares to such independent director.

 

On December 31, 2022, ARC Group Limited, the Company’s Financial Advisor, was granted 1,378,517 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share, up to 143,766 of which are subject to forfeiture if the Company’s public stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to any of the Company’s remaining outstanding shares of Class A common stock.

 

Accordingly, at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 4,253,517 shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding.

 

Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, except as required by law.

 

The shares of Class B Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at the time of the Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like. In the case that additional shares of Class A Common Stock, or equity linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B Common Stock shall convert into shares of Class A Common Stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B Common Stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering plus all shares of Class A Common Stock and equity linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination (excluding any shares or equity linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination, and any private placement-equivalent units and its underlying securities issued to the Sponsor or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to the Company).

 

The Company may issue additional common stock or preferred stock to complete its Business Combination or under an employee incentive plan after completion of its Business Combination.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and derivative warrant liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques that the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

 

Description  (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
   September 30, 2023 
   Quoted Prices in   Significant Other   Significant Other 
   Active Markets   Observable Inputs   Unobservable Inputs 
Description  (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
Asset:               
Investments held in Trust Account  $19,308,261   $   $ 
                
Warrant Liabilities:               
Public Warrants  $575,000   $   $ 
Private Placement Warrants  $   $   $29,849 

 

Description  (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
   December 31, 2022 
   Quoted Prices in   Significant Other   Significant Other 
   Active Markets   Observable Inputs   Unobservable Inputs 
Description  (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
Asset:               
Investments held in Trust Account  $29,029,416   $   $ 
                
Warrant Liabilities:               
Public Warrants  $345,000   $   $ 
Private Placement Warrants  $   $   $17,558 

 

The Warrants are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Public Warrants were valued initially and at each reporting period that the warrants were not actively traded, using a Monte Carlo simulation. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Public Warrants were valued using the instrument’s publicly listed trading price, which is considered to be a Level 1 measurement due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market. Private Placement Warrants were valued using a Monte Carlo valuation model using level 3 inputs at initial valuation and as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, assets held in the Trust Account were invested solely in Morgan Stanley Bank cash, bank deposit program and money market fund and BlackRock US Treasury mutual fund of $19,308,261 and $29,029,416, respectively.

 

The Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within the consolidated statement of operations.

 

The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record a derivative liability upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Accordingly, the Company classified each warrant as a liability at its fair value and the warrants were allocated a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Units equal to its fair value determined by the Monte Carlo simulation. This liability is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The Company will reassess the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the warrants will be reclassified as of the date of the event that causes the reclassification.

 

 

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

 

The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value of the Public warrants at each reporting period for its warrants that are not actively traded. Inherent in a Monte Carlo simulation are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock based on historical volatility of select peer companies that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero. On June 22, 2021, the Public Warrants surpassed the threshold waiting period to be publicly traded. Once publicly traded, the observable input qualifies the liability for treatment as a Level 1 liability. As such, as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company classified the Public Warrants as Level 1.

 

The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a Monte Carlo model are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its warrants based on implied volatility from the Company’s traded warrants and from historical volatility of select peer company’s common stock that matches the expected remaining life of the Warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.

 

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which a change in valuation technique or methodology occurs. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no transfers between levels.

 

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements inputs as their measurement dates:

 

   September 30, 2023   December 31, 2022

Volatility   7.9%   4.2%
Risk-free rate   4.50%   3.91%
Dividend yield (per share)  $0.00   $0.00 

 

The change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

 

   Private Warrants   Public Warrants   Total Warrant Liability 
Fair value as of December 31, 2022  $17,558   $345,000   $362,558

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued, the Company has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identified any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements other than as described below.

 

On October 12, 2023, the Company elected to exercise its eighth of third one-month extension to the Termination Date, which extended its deadline to complete its initial business combination to November 11, 2023, by depositing $75,000 into the Trust Account.

 

On October 17, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Stockholders”) in lieu of the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 25, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), Data Knights, LLC, the Company’s sponsor, OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation), a Delaware corporation, (“OneMedNet”), and Paul Casey, as seller representative (such transactions, collectively, the “Business Combination”). At the Special Meeting, the Stockholders were asked to consider and vote on the proposals identified in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 21, 2023 (the “Definitive Proxy”). Proposals 1 through 7 set forth below were approved:

 

-Proposal 1: To approve an amendment to the Second Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) effective prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, to remove from the Charter the redemption limitation contained under Section 9.2(a) preventing the Company from closing a business combination if it would have less than $5,000,0001 of net tangible assets (the “NTA Proposal”).
   
-Proposal 2: To approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Business Combination Proposal”).
   
-Proposal 3: To approve, for purposes of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(a) and (b), the issuance of more than 20% of the issued and outstanding Class A common stock and the resulting change in control in connection with the Business Combination (the “Nasdaq Proposal”).

 

 

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Continued)

 

-Proposal 4: To approve the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which shall become effective upon the closing of the Business Combination (the “Charter Amendment Proposal”), including (i) the addition of a supermajority voting requirement to amend the Surviving Corporation’s Bylaws, and (ii) the addition of a supermajority voting requirement to amend Articles V (Board of Directors), VI (Stockholders), VII (Liability and Indemnification; Corporate Opportunity), VIII (Business Combinations), IX (Exclusive Forum), and Article X (Amendments) to the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
   
-Proposal 4A: To approve the addition to Company’s Certificate of Incorporation of a super majority voting requirement to amend the Surviving Corporation’s Bylaws (the “Bylaw Amendment Requirement”), as contained in the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
   
-Proposal 4B: To approve the addition to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation of a super majority voting requirement (the “Article Amendment Requirement”) to amend Articles V (Board of Directors), VI (Stockholders), VII (Liability and Indemnification; Corporate Opportunity), VIII (Business Combinations), IX (Exclusive Forum), and Article X (Amendments) of the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
   
-Proposal 5: To elect eight directors to serve on the Company’s board of directors following the consummation of the Business Combination until the 2024 annual meeting of Stockholders, in the case of Class I directors, the 2025 annual meeting of Stockholders, in the case of Class II directors, and the 2026 annual meeting of Stockholders, in the case of Class III directors, and, in each case, until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified (the “Director Election Proposal”).
   
-Proposal 6: To approve the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan Proposal”).
-Proposal 7: To approve adjourning the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if it is determined by the Company that more time is necessary or appropriate to approve one or more Proposals at the Special Meeting (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

 

In connection with the Special Meeting, certain Stockholders (the “Redeeming Stockholders”) holding 1,614,148 shares of Class A Common Stock (after giving effect to withdrawals of redemptions) exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (“Continental”) in the trust account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”). As a result, approximately $17.9 million (approximately $11.12 per share) will be removed from the Trust Account to pay the Redeeming Stockholders, and approximately $1.1 million will remain in the Trust Account.

 

On November 7, 2023, the Company consummated the Business Combination with OneMedNet pursuant to Merger Agreement, following the approval of the Business Combination at the Special Meeting. On November 7, 2023, at the closing of the Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into OneMedNet with OneMedNet surviving the Merger, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company changed its name to “OneMedNet Corporation.”

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of presentation

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars and conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Emerging growth company

Emerging growth company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Use of estimates

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company had $1,537 and $30,870 in cash and no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

 

 

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Trust Account

Trust Account

 

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $117,300,000 ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement was held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which will be invested only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.

 

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

 

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred, presented as offering costs allocated to warrants in the consolidated statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Public Shares were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

 

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

 

The Company accounts for its shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of common stock (including shares of common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A Common Stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events.

 

On September 30, 2023, there are 585,275 shares of Class A Common Stock related to the Private Placement Units (Note 8) outstanding, which are not subject to redemption, and 1,712,698 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, which are subject to possible redemption.

 

If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The accretion or remeasurement is treated as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital).

 

 

 

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Class A Common Stock reflected on the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

 

   2023   2022

Contingently redeemable Class A Common Stock - Ending Balance   19,209,844    120,133,869 

 

Net income (loss) per share

Net income (loss) per share

 

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and warrants issued as components of the Private Placement Units (the “Placement Warrants”) since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.

 

The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. The contractual formula utilized to calculate the redemption amount approximates fair value. The Class feature to redeem at fair value means that there is effectively only one class of stock. Changes in fair value are not considered a dividend for the purposes of the numerator in the earnings per share calculation. Net income per common share is computed by dividing the pro rata net income (loss) between the redeemable shares and the non-redeemable shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each of the periods. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the IPO since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive. The warrants are exercisable for 12,085,275 shares of common stock in the aggregate.

 

 

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share:

Concentration of credit risk

Concentration of credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. At September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, except warrant liabilities (See Note 9).

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

 

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

 

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the United States is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

 

Our effective tax rate was (12.15)% and 0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our effective tax rate was (30.10)% and 0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, due to transaction costs and the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets.

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, “Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options” (Subtopic 470-20) and “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
