As previously disclosed, on December 7, 2021, Oaktree Acquisition Corp.

The transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are referred to as the “Business Combination”.
On April 18, 2022, OACB and Alvotech Holdings entered into the First Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”). Pursuant to Amendment No. 1, the parties agreed (i) to lower the Minimum Cash Condition (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) from $300,000,000 to $250,000,000, (ii) to increase the principle amount of indebtedness Alvotech Holdings can incur in any debt financing transactions, in the aggregate, prior to the closing of the Business Combination without the prior written consent of OACB from $50,000,000 to $90,000,000 and (iii) that the aggregate proceeds in excess of $90,000,000 of any debt financing funded or available to be funded to Alvotech Holdings prior to the closing of the Business Combination (and, for the avoidance of doubt, after the date of the Business Combination Agreement), at or following the closing of the Business Combination are to be credited towards the Minimum Cash Condition.
A copy of Amendment No. 1 is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference, and the foregoing description of Amendment No. 1 is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.
On April 12, 2022, Alvotech Holdings signed a binding term sheet with Sculptor Capital Investments, LLC (“Sculptor”), for a debt facility of $75.0 million to $125.0 million. The proceeds will be used to pay off part of a shareholder loan they received from Alvogen and for general corporate purposes. Alvotech Holdings will pay a 2% underwriting fee to Sculptor and the interest rate is to be determined on the date of the signing of the facility agreement but will be no less than 10% and no more than 12.5%, and the maturity date of the facility is September 23, 2025. Alvotech Holdings’ entry into the facility agreement is, among other conditions precedent, subject to the consummation of the Business Combination, receipt of all necessary approvals, and the negotiation and execution of final documentation in a form that is mutually agreeable to all parties involved. There can be no guarantee that these conditions precedent will be satisfied or that the parties will be able to agree on final documentation.
On April 18, 2022, TopCo entered into a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (“SEPA”) with YA II PN, LTD. (“Yorkville”) pursuant to which, subject to the consummation of the Business Combination, TopCo has the option, but not the obligation, to issue, and Yorkville shall subscribe for, an aggregate amount of up to $150.0 million of TopCo Ordinary Shares at the time of TopCo’s choosing during the term of the agreement, subject to certain limitations. Each advance under the SEPA (an “Advance”) may be for an aggregate amount of TopCo Ordinary Shares purchased at 98.0% of the market price during a one- or three-day pricing period elected by TopCo. The “Market Price” is defined in the SEPA as the average of the VWAPs (as defined below) during the one trading day, in the case of a one day pricing period, or during each of the three consecutive trading days, in the case of a three day pricing period, commencing on the trading day following the date TopCo submits an Advance notice to Yorkville. “VWAP” means, for any trading day, the daily volume weighted average price of TopCo’s ordinary shares for such date on NASDAQ as reported by Bloomberg L.P. during regular trading hours. The SEPA will continue for a term of three years commencing from the date of execution of the definitive agreement.
The two facilities are intended to provide access of up to $250 million and are expected to be used to replace potential redemptions by OACB shareholders that may occur as part of the Business Combination.
