Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The information in Item 4 below is incorporated by reference in this Item 3. As described in Item 4, the securities reported on this Schedule 13D reflect the issuance of the 2022 PIPE Shares (as defined below).

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

Subscription Agreement

On or around October 16, 2022, the Issuer entered into subscription agreements (the “2022 PIPE Subscription Agreements”), pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to issue and sell to certain subscribers (the “Subscribers”) in a private placement an aggregate of 189,924,499 Class A Shares (the “2022 PIPE Shares”), at a price of $0.42122 per share (the “2022 Private Placement”). VNV Cyprus purchased 46,531,503 Class A Shares in the 2022 Private Placement, for total consideration of $19,600,000.00. The 2022 Private Placement closed on November 3, 2022 (the “Closing Date”). VNV Cyprus used proceeds from investments to fund its investment in the 2022 Private Placement.

As a condition to closing the 2022 Private Placement, ALP Partners Limited (“ALP Partners”), furnished an undertaking, referred to as the “Approval of Conversion” to deliver to the Issuer and the Issuer’s transfer agent a letter instructing the total outstanding Class B ordinary shares be converted into 79,637,576 Class A Shares in accordance with Article 8(a) of the Issuer’s Articles, and in connection therewith, that the transfer agent re-designate such Class B ordinary shares, and in exchange, issue to ALP Partners, from the Issuer’s established conversion reserve account, the 79,637,576 Class A Shares, in book-entry form.

According to the press release included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 6-K filed on October 18, 2022, the Issuer expects to use the proceeds from the 2022 Private Placement to fund the ongoing development of its digital-first platform and services for managing population health, working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The foregoing description of the 2022 PIPE Subscription Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2022 PIPE Subscription Agreements, a copy which is attached as Exhibit 99.3 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights

On October 21, 2021, the Issuer became a public reporting company following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by that certain Merger Agreement, dated June 3, 2021, with Alkuri Global Acquisition Corp., a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company (the “SPAC”), whereby the Issuer’s shareholders’ shares were exchanged for shares in the SPAC and the shares of the Issuer began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “De-SPAC Transaction”). 

In connection with the De-SPAC Transaction, the Issuer, VNV Cyprus and certain other investors entered into a registration rights agreement dated as of June 3, 2021 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), with respect to certain shares held by the investors, including Class A Shares (the “2021 PIPE Shares”) acquired pursuant to the subscription agreements, dated as of June 3, 2021, entered into, by and among the Issuer, the SPAC and certain subscribers, whereby VNV Cyprus acquired 500,000 2021 PIPE Shares at a price of $10.00 per share. The registration rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, include certain piggyback registration rights and customary demand registration rights.

Pursuant to the 2022 PIPE Subscription Agreements, the Subscribers are entitled to registration rights for their 2022 PIPE Shares under the Registration Rights Agreement and the Issuer agreed to file a registration statement for a shelf registration covering the 2022 PIPE Shares within 20 days of the Closing Date, to use commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement be declared effective as soon as practicable thereafter and to file amendments as necessary.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement and any other registration rights under the 2022 PIPE Subscription Agreements, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement and the 2022 PIPE Subscription Agreements, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 99.2 and 99.3 to this Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons may exchange information with the Issuer or other persons or entities pursuant to confidentiality or similar agreements and may enter into expense reimbursement agreements with the Issuer and others.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on an ongoing basis.

Certain plans or proposals may from time to time be discussed or considered by the directors of the Issuer, including Per Brilioth, who is both a member of the board of directors of the Issuer and a managing director of VNV Global.
