Explanatory Note

As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by CareMax, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), on November 18, 2024 (the “Previous 8-K”), on November 17, 2024, the Company and certain of its controlled affiliates (such affiliates, together with the Company, the “Debtors”) commenced filing voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) seeking relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the U.S. Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered under Case No. 24-80093 (MVL). The Debtors continue to operate their business and manage their properties as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

DIP Credit Agreement

In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, on November 19, 2024, the Bankruptcy Court entered an interim order (the “Interim DIP Order”) approving the Company, as borrower (the “DIP Borrower”), and certain subsidiaries of the Company from time to time party thereto as guarantors, entering into that certain Superpriority Priming Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (the “DIP Credit Agreement”), dated November 19, 2024, with the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “DIP Lenders”) and Acquiom Agency Services LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent.

Pursuant to the DIP Credit Agreement, the DIP Lenders have agreed, upon the terms and conditions set forth therein, to make available to the DIP Borrower a $122.0 million senior secured superpriority postpetition term loan financing facility (the “DIP Facility”). Under the DIP Facility, (i) $12.0 million in New Money DIP Loans has been funded under the Interim DIP Order and (ii) $18.5 million in New Money DIP Loans will be made available on a final basis (the “Final DIP Loans”) upon Bankruptcy Court approval of the DIP Facility on a final basis (the “Final DIP Order”) and satisfaction of the other applicable conditions to any Final DIP Loans. Upon entry of the Final DIP Order, an aggregate principal amount of $91.5 million of Prepetition Loans held by the Prepetition Lenders will be deemed to have been converted on a cashless, dollar-for-dollar basis into senior secured superpriority postpetition term loans under the DIP Facility.

The foregoing description of the DIP Credit Agreement and the DIP Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the information regarding the DIP Credit Agreement and the DIP Facility set forth in the Previous 8-K (including the full text of the DIP Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Previous 8-K), which information is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

Stalking Horse APA

On November 24, 2024, the Company entered into a binding “stalking horse” asset purchase agreement (the “Stalking Horse APA”) with ClareMedica Viking, LLC (the “Buyer”) and ClareMedica Parent Holdings, LP (“Buyer Parent”), pursuant to which the Buyer has agreed to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, the “Acquired Assets” of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Seller Group”), consisting of a vast majority of the Company’s operating clinic business (the “Core Centers Assets”), and to assume certain liabilities.

The acquisition of the Acquired Assets and assumption of the Acquired Liabilities by the Buyer pursuant to the Stalking Horse APA is subject to approval of the Bankruptcy Court and one or more auctions, if necessary, to solicit higher or otherwise better bids. On November 25, 2024, the Debtors intend to file a motion (the “Bidding Procedures Motion”) seeking approval of, among other things, bidding procedures (the “Bidding Procedures”), which will establish procedures for the selection of the highest or otherwise best offer(s) for the sale or sales of the Core Centers Assets. Other interested bidders would be permitted to participate in the auction if they submit qualifying offers that are higher or otherwise better than the Stalking Horse APA. The Stalking Horse APA acts as a baseline for competitive bids for the acquisition of the Core Center Assets. The Bidding Procedures Motion additionally seeks Bankruptcy Court approval of the Stalking Horse APA and designation of the Buyer as the “stalking horse” bidder for the Acquired Assets.

Under the terms of the Stalking Horse APA, the Buyer has agreed, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval and absent any higher or otherwise better bid, to acquire the Acquired Assets and to assume the Acquired Liabilities from the Seller Group for (i) a cash payment of $35 million and (ii) units of ClareMedica Health Partners, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Buyer Parent, having an aggregate value of $65 million. The Stalking Horse APA includes customary representations and warranties and various customary covenants under the circumstances that are subject to certain limitations, including, without limitation, a break-up fee and expense reimbursement and the right to designate executory contracts and unexpired leases to assume or reject.

The Bidding Procedures and Stalking Horse APA remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court and the foregoing description is not complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Stalking Horse APA, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1, and is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On November 25, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing its entry into the Stalking Horse APA. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

This information and the information contained in Exhibit 99.1 are furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as may be expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filing, regardless of any general incorporation language in the filing.

Cautionary Note Regarding the Company’s Securities

The Company cautions that trading in its securities during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company’s securities may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders of the Company’s securities in the Chapter 11 Cases. In particular, the Company expects that its security holders will experience a complete loss on their investment. ~~As noted in Item 3.01 above, the Company’s Class A common stock and warrants will be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Select Market at the opening of business on November 29, 2024.~~
