Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 19, 2019, Organogenesis Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant Agent”) entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Warrant Amendment”) to the Warrant Agreement, dated as of October 10, 2016 (the “Warrant Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Amendment amends the Warrant Agreement to provide the Company with the right to require the holders of the Company’s publicly traded warrants (the “public warrants”) to exchange their public warrants for shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“common stock”) at an exchange ratio of 0.0855 shares of Class A common stock for each public warrant. The Company has the right to require the exchange of not less than all of the public warrants at any time while such public warrants are exercisable and prior to their expiration, at the office of the Warrant Agent, upon notice to the registered holders of the outstanding public warrants at least fifteen days prior to the date of exchange fixed by the Company. The Company intends to exchange all remaining untendered public warrants for shares of common stock in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement, as amended by the Warrant Amendment.

The foregoing description of the Warrant Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Warrant Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.03 Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.

To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the disclosure set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.03.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As previously disclosed, in connection with the Company’s offer to each holder of the public warrants to receive 0.095 shares of Class A common stock in exchange for each public warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the “Offer”), the Company solicited consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from holders of the public warrants to approve the Warrant Amendment. The execution and delivery of the Letter of Transmittal and Consent in connection with the exchange of the public warrants in connection with the Offer constituted the public warrant holder’s consent to the Warrant Amendment.

The Offer and Consent Solicitation expired at midnight Eastern Time on August 16, 2019. A total of 29,950,150 public warrants, or approximately 97.0% of the 30,890,748 outstanding public warrants, were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Offer, including 600 public warrants that were tendered through a notice of guaranteed delivery. Because consents were received from holders of more than 65% of the public warrants, the Warrant Amendment was approved. The Company intends to exchange all remaining untendered public warrants for shares of common stock in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement, as amended.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On August 19, 2019, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Offer and the Consent Solicitation. The Company also announced that it intends to exchange all remaining untendered public warrants for shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement, as amended.

A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO WARRANT AGREEMENT

This Amendment (this “ Amendment ”) is made as of August 19, 2019 by and between Organogenesis Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation f/k/a Avista Healthcare Public Acquisition Corp. (the “ Company ”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation, as warrant agent (the “ Warrant Agent ”), and constitutes an amendment to that certain Warrant Agreement, dated as of October 10, 2016 (the “ Existing Warrant Agreement ”), between the Company and the Warrant Agent. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Existing Warrant Agreement.

WHEREAS, Section 9.8 of the Existing Warrant Agreement provides that the Company and the Warrant Agent may amend the Existing Warrant Agreement with the written consent of the Registered Holders of 65% of the outstanding Public Warrants;

WHEREAS, the Company desires to amend the Existing Warrant Agreement to provide the Company with the right to require the holders of Public Warrants to exchange all of the outstanding Public Warrants for shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, following a consent solicitation undertaken by the Company, the Registered Holders of more than 65% of the outstanding Public Warrants have consented to and approved this Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree to amend the Existing Warrant Agreement as set forth herein.

1.     Amendment of Existing Warrant Agreement . The Existing Warrant Agreement is hereby amended by adding the new Section 6A thereto:

“6A     Mandatory Exchange .

6A.1     Company Election to Exchange . Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, not less than all of the outstanding Warrants may be exchanged, at the option of the Company, at any time while they are exercisable and prior to their expiration, at the office of the Warrant Agent, upon notice to the Registered Holders of the Warrants, as described in Section  6A.2 below, for shares of Common Stock, at the exchange rate of 0.0855 shares of Common Stock for every Warrant held by the holder thereof (the “ Consideration ”) (subject to equitable adjustment by the Company in the event of any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar transaction with respect to the Common Stock). The aggregate Consideration payable to each former Registered Holder shall be rounded up to the nearest whole Share after multiplying the aggregate number of outstanding Warrants held by such former Registered Holder by the Consideration.

 

1


6A.2     Date Fixed for, and Notice of, Exchange . In the event that the Company elects to exchange all of the Warrants, the Company shall fix a date for the exchange (the “ Exchange Date ”). Notice of exchange shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, by the Company not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Exchange Date to the Registered Holders of the Warrants at their last addresses as they shall appear on the registration books. Any notice mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given whether or not the Registered Holder received such notice.

6A.3     Exercise After Notice of Exchange . The Warrants may be exercised, for cash (or on a “cashless basis” in accordance with subsection 3.3.1(b) of this Agreement) at any time after notice of redemption shall have been given by the Company pursuant to Section  6A.2 hereof and prior to the Exchange Date. On and after the Exchange Date, the record holder of the Warrants shall have no further rights except to receive, upon surrender of the Warrants, the Consideration.

2.     Miscellaneous Provisions .

2.1     Severability . This Amendment shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Amendment or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Amendment a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

2.2     Applicable Law .

Each of the parties hereby waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

2.3     Counterparts . This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission, and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

CANTON, MASSACHUSETTS (August 19, 2019) — Organogenesis Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: ORGO) (the “Company”) announced today the completion of its previously announced exchange offer (the “Offer”) and consent solicitation relating to its publicly traded warrants. On August 19, 2019, the Company accepted all 29,950,150 publicly traded warrants tendered, representing approximately 97% of the total public warrants outstanding, and expects to issue an aggregate of 2,845,280 shares of Class A common stock (“Common Stock”) in exchange. The Company also executed an amendment to the warrant agreement governing its outstanding public warrants and expects to exchange all remaining untendered public warrants on September 3, 2019 in exchange for approximately 80,422 shares of Common Stock (the “Redemption”).

In addition, pursuant to the terms of a previously announced Warrant Exchange Agreement, Avista Capital Partners IV L.P., and Avista Capital Partners IV (Offshore), L.P. are exchanging an aggregate of 4,100,000 private placement warrants for an aggregate of 389,501 shares of our Common Stock (at the same exchange ratio offered to the public warrant holders in the Offer) (the “Private Exchange”).

This press release is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, the securities described herein, and is also not a solicitation of the related consents. The Offer was made only pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, as amended, and related exhibits, including the Amended and Restated Offer to Exchange Letter and Consent Solicitation, Amended and Restated Letter of Transmittal and Consent and other related documents.
