Pursuant to the Company’s Charter, holders of public shares of the Company may redeem such shares (the “Redemption Rights”) in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal.
On March 27, 2024, (the Company, entered into a non-redemption agreement (the “Non-Redemption Agreement”) with Viveon Health LLC (the “Sponsor”) and certain institutional investors named therein (the “Investors”). Pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreement, the Investors have agreed that, in connection with the Special Meeting, the Investors will not exercise their Redemption Rights, or they will rescind or reverse previously submitted redemption requests prior to the Special Meeting. Under the terms of the Non-Redemption Agreement, if the Investors do not exercise their Redemption Rights, or validly rescind previously submitted redemption requests, and the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Amendment Proposal are approved, then promptly following the consummation of the proposed business combination, the Sponsor shall forfeit 150,000 shares of Company common stock (the “Forfeited Shares”) and the Company shall issue 150,000 shares of Company common stock, in the aggregate, to the Investors (the “New Shares”), for no additional consideration.

At the Investors’ election, in lieu of receiving the New Shares, following the satisfaction of Redemption Rights in connection with the consummation of the proposed business combination, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to pay to the Investors directly from the Company’s trust account an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) 150,000 and (ii) the final per-share redemption price then available to Company stockholder (the “Share Consideration Payment”). In order to receive the Share Consideration Payment, the Investors shall not redeem 150,000 publicly traded shares of common stock of the Company at the time of the business combination redemption deadline.
