NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Viveon Health Acquisition Corp. (the “Company” or “Viveon”) is a newly organized blank check company incorporated as a Delaware company on August 7, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”).
The Company has neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues as of March 31, 2023. The Company’s only activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), described below, and, after the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company does not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held after the Initial Public Offering. The Company incurs expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses. The Company’s sponsor is Viveon Health, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”).
The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 22, 2020. On December 28, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 17,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $175,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 18,000,000 warrants (the “Private Warrants”), at a price of $0.50 per Private Warrant, which is discussed in Note 4.
On December 30, 2020, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option by purchasing 2,625,000 Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), generating aggregate of gross proceeds of $26,250,000.
Upon closing of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, $203,262,500 (approximately $10.10 per Unit) from net offering proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. government securities, with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its tax obligations, the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (1) the completion of the initial Business Combination within 15 months, unless extended to a total of 24 months, pursuant to the terms of an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), and (2) the Company’s redemption of 100% of the outstanding Public Shares if the Company has not completed a Business Combination in the required time period.
While the Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the cash held outside of the Trust Account, substantially all of the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Warrants, which are placed in the Trust Account, are intended to be applied generally toward completing a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts disbursed to management for working capital purposes, if permitted, and excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting commissions) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires an interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
In connection with any proposed initial Business Combination, the Company will either (1) seek stockholder approval of such initial Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which public stockholders may seek to convert their Public Shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the proposed Business Combination, into their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable) or (2) provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to sell their Public Shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a stockholder vote) for an amount equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable), in each case subject to the limitations described herein. The Public Shares subject to redemption were recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”).
If the Company determines to engage in a tender offer, such tender offer will be structured so that each public stockholder may tender any or all of his, her or its Public Shares rather than some pro rata portion of his, her or its shares. If enough stockholders tender their shares so that the Company is unable to satisfy any applicable closing condition set forth in the definitive agreement related to its initial Business Combination, or the Company is unable to maintain net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001, the Company will not consummate such initial Business Combination. The decision as to whether it will seek stockholder approval of a proposed Business Combination or will allow stockholders to sell their shares to the Company in a tender offer will be made by the Company based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction or whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require us to seek stockholder approval.
If the Company provides stockholders with the opportunity to sell their shares to it by means of a tender offer, it will file tender offer documents with the SEC which will contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial Business Combination as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval of its initial Business Combination, the Company will consummate the Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock present in person or by proxy at a meeting of the Company are voted in favor of the Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing redemption rights, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of its initial Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions in connection with its initial Business Combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, (the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation will provide that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its Public Shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 20% of the shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the Company’s prior consent. The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors (the “initial stockholders”) have agreed not to propose any amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (a) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide for the redemption of its Public Shares in connection with an initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering or (b) with respect to any other material provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

On June 22, 2023, the Company held a stockholder meeting (the “June 2023 Stockholders Meeting”) in which stockholders voted to (A) amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, to allow the Company to (i) initially extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination up to six times, each such extension for an additional one month period, until December 31, 2023, by depositing into the Trust Account, the amount of $85,000 for each one-month extension until December 31, 2023, and (ii) further extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination (without seeking additional approval from the stockholders) for up to an additional three months, from January 1, 2024 to March 31, 2024, with no additional deposits to be made into the Trust Account during such period, each such extension for an additional one month period, (the “Third Extended Date”), unless the closing of the proposed initial business combination with Clearday, Inc., or any potential alternative initial business combination shall have occurred prior to the Third Extended Date; and (B) to amend the Company’s Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of December 22, 2020, by and between the Company and the Trustee to reflect the foregoing extensions and deposits.

As a result, approximately $2,498,947 (approximately $10.99 per share) were removed from the Company’s Trust Account to pay such holders, without taking into account additional allocation of payments to cover any tax obligation of the Company, such as franchise taxes, but not including any excise tax, since that date. Following redemptions, the Company has 1,617,415 shares of public common stock outstanding, and approximately $17,777,324 remained in the Trust Account.
On June 27, 2023, July 27, 2023, August 28, 2023, September 29, 2023, October 27, 2023, and December 1, 2023, the Company deposited $85,000 in the Trust Account, to extend the date by which the Company can complete an initial business combination by one month to July 31, 2023, August 31, 2023, September 30, 2023, October 31, 2023, November 30, 2023, and December 31, 2023, respectively.
On March 27, 2024, the Company held a Special Meeting of Shareholders (“the March 2024 Stockholders Meeting”) in which voted to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, to allow the Company to allow the Company to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination up to six times, each such extension for an additional one month period, until September 30, 2024 (the “Fourth Extended Date”), upon one calendar day advance notice to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, prior to the applicable monthly deadline, unless the closing of the proposed Business Combination with Clearday, Inc., or any potential alternative initial business combination shall have occurred prior to the Fourth Extended Date. It also voted to amend the Company’s Investment Management Trust Agreement, allowing the Company to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination up to six times, each such extension for an additional one month period, until September 30, 2024, by depositing into the Trust Account the amount of $35,000 (the “Extension Payment”) for each one-month extension until September 30, 2024. On March 28, 2024 a deposit of $35,000 was made into the Trust Account to extend to April 30, 2024.
The Company is currently in default of the Extension Payments for May and June of 2024. The Company anticipates that it will make the outstanding payments in June, 2024.
On March 27, 2024 stockholders elected to redeem 968,350 Public Shares, resulting in a redemption of $11,267,175 from the Trust Account. Subsequent to the redemptions, 649,065 Public Shares remained.
The Company’s initial stockholders agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) held by them if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the initial stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

Merger Consideration
The total consideration to be paid at closing (the “Merger Consideration”) by the Company to Clearday security holders (and holders who have the right to acquire Clearday capital stock) was an amount equal to $250 Million (plus the aggregate exercise price for all Clearday options and warrants) per the Merger Agreement. The First Amendment increased the Merger Consideration to an amount equal to $500 Million (plus the aggregate exercise price for all Clearday options and warrants).

Earnout Payments
In addition, the holders of Clearday preferred stock will have the contingent right to earn up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, in the aggregate (the “Earnout Shares”), if at any time during the period beginning on the date of the Closing (the “Closing Date”) and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earnout Eligibility Period”), the Adjusted Net Income (as defined below) for any Earnout Period is a positive number for the first time during the Earnout Eligibility Period (the “Earnout Milestone”). Under the Merger Agreement, Adjusted Net Income means for any Earnout Period, the consolidated net income or loss for such period calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP applied on a basis consistent with past practice, of (a) for periods prior to the Closing, the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Company Group”), and (b) for periods from and after the Closing, of us and our subsidiaries (including the Company Group), in each case before adjusting for the following to the extent deducted/added in calculating consolidated net income or loss: (1) interest expense/income; (2) income tax expense/tax credits; (3) depreciation and amortization; (4) transaction expenses; (5) extraordinary items; (6) any income or loss attributable to us that accrues in accordance with U.S. GAAP on or prior to the Closing Date; and (7) all gains or losses in connection with sales or dispositions of assets and investments not in the ordinary course of business.
If, following the Closing Date and prior to end of the Earnout Eligibility Period, there is a change of control, then, immediately prior to such change of control, all the Earnout Shares not yet earned shall be earned by the Clearday earnout holders and shall be released from escrow and delivered to the Clearday earnout holders, and the Clearday earnout holders shall be eligible to participate in such change of control transaction with respect to such Earnout Shares.
The Earnout Shares will be placed in escrow and will not be released from escrow until they are earned as a result of the occurrence of the Earnout Milestone or a change of control, if applicable. The Earnout Shares that are not earned on or before the expiration of the Earnout Eligibility Period shall be automatically forfeited and cancelled.

The Merger Agreement and other agreements described below have been included to provide investors with information regarding their respective terms. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, Clearday or the other parties thereto. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement were made as of a specified date, are modified or qualified by information in one or more disclosure letters prepared in connection with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from what might be viewed as material to investors, or may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties. Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement are not necessarily characterizations of the actual state of facts about the Company, Clearday or the other parties thereto at the time they were made or otherwise and should only be read in conjunction with the other information that the Company or Clearday makes publicly available in reports, statements and other documents filed with the SEC. The Company and Clearday investors and securityholders are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement.
Certain Related Agreements
Parent Support Agreements.
Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company, Clearday and the Sponsor and the officers and directors of the Company entered into a support agreement (the “Parent Support Agreement”) pursuant to which the Sponsor and the officers and directors of the Company have agreed to vote all shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by them, including any additional shares of the Company they acquire ownership of or the power to vote: (i) in favor of the Merger and related transactions, (ii) against any action reasonably be expected to impede, delay, or materially and adversely affect the Merger and related transactions, and (iii) in favor of an extension of the period of time the Company is afforded to consummate an initial business combination.

Lock-Up Agreements.
In connection with the closing, certain Clearday stockholders will each agree, subject to certain customary exceptions, not to (i) offer, sell contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any lockup shares, (ii) enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, (iii) enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the lock-up shares or otherwise, (iv) engage in any short sales or other arrangement with respect to the lock-up shares or (v) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) until the date that is six months after the Closing Date (the “Lock-Up Period”). The term “Lockup Shares” mean the Merger Consideration Shares and the Earnout Shares, if any, whether or not earned prior to the end of the Lock-up Period, together with any other shares of the Company’s common stock, and including any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or representing the rights to receive the Company’s common stock, if any, acquired during the Lock-up Period. If the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period following the Closing Date, 50% of the Lock-up Shares will be released from the lock-up. The existing escrow provisions of the Company’s common stock held by certain stockholders will remain in effect.
Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement.
At the Closing Date, the Company will enter into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”) with certain existing stockholders of the Company and Clearday with respect to their shares of the Company’s common stock acquired before or pursuant to the Merger, and including the shares issuable on conversion of the warrants issued to the Sponsor in connection with the Company’s Initial Public Offering and any shares issuable on conversion of loans or other convertible securities. The agreement amends and restates the registration rights agreement the Company entered into on December 22, 2020 in connection with its Initial Public Offering. Subject to the Lock-Up Agreements described above, the holders of a majority of the shares held by the Company’s existing stockholders, and the holders of a majority of the shares held by the Clearday stockholders will each be entitled to make one demand that Clearday register such securities for resale under the Securities Act, or two demands each if the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 or a similar short-form registration statement. In addition, the holders will have certain “piggy-back” registration rights that require the Company to include such securities in registration statements that the Company otherwise files. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Going Concern
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $77,861 of cash and cash equivalents held outside the Trust Account available for working capital needs. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB’s ASC Subtopic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern, management has determined that if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs or complete a Business Combination by September 30, 2024 in accordance with the latest extension, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The liquidity condition and date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the date that these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to complete a Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date or obtain approval for an extension.

Risks & Uncertainties
The credit and financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruptions due to the current conflict between Ukraine and Russia. The conflict is expected to have further global economic consequences, including but not limited to the possibility of severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in inflation rates and uncertainty about economic and political stability. In addition, the United States and other countries have imposed sanctions on Russia which increases the risk that Russia, as a retaliatory action, may launch cyberattacks against the United States, its government, infrastructure and businesses. The conflict between Israel and Hamas in early October 2023 and Israel’s subsequent declaration of war against Hamas may have severe adverse effects on regional and global economic markets. The war between Hamas and Israel and the varying involvement of the United States and other countries, as well as political and civil unrest related to the foregoing, makes it difficult to predict the conflict’s impact on global economic and market conditions and, as a result, the situation presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 and Excise Tax
On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which, among other things, imposes a 1% excise tax on the fair market value of stock repurchased by publicly traded U.S. corporations and certain U.S. subsidiaries of publicly traded non-U.S. corporations beginning in 2023, with certain exceptions (the “Excise Tax”). Because we are a Delaware corporation and our securities trade on the New York Stock Exchange, we will likely be considered a “covered corporation” within the meaning of the Inflation Reduction Act. While not free from doubt, absent any further guidance from Congress or the U.S. Department of the Treasury, there is significant risk that the Excise Tax will apply to any redemptions of our common stock after December 31, 2022, including redemptions in connection with an initial Business Combination and any amendment to our certificate of incorporation to extend the time to consummate an initial Business Combination, unless an exemption is available. In addition, the Excise Tax may make a transaction with us less appealing to potential business combination targets, and thus, potentially hinder our ability to enter into and consummate an initial Business Combination. Further, the application of the Excise Tax in the event of a liquidation after December 31, 2022 is uncertain, and could impact the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our stockholders in connection with our liquidation.

Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company”, as defined in Section 2(a) of the “Securities Act”, as modified by the Jumpstart Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. The Company has elected to implement the aforementioned exemptions.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company intends to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ from those estimates. The initial valuation of the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 3), Rights (as defined in Note 3) common stock subject to redemption and the periodic valuation of the Private Warrants and Subscription Warrants (as defined in Note 6) required management to exercise significant judgement in its estimates.
Reclassification
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation, including proceeds from note agreements payable - related party of $1,025,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. These proceeds were reclassified out of proceeds from note agreements payable on the statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The reclassification had no effect on the previously reported total cash flows
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The cash equivalents in the amount of $70,845 and $6,346, were held in money market funds as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Investments Held in Trust Account
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in a money market account.. The assets in the amount of $20,336,813 and $53,815,395 were held in the Trust Account as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in Interest and dividends earned on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information.

Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and recorded as a warrant liability. In accordance with guidance contained in ASC 815, the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 3) qualify for equity treatment. The Private Warrants and Subscription Warrants (as defined in Note 6) do not qualify as equity and are recorded as liabilities at fair value, which is discussed in Note 9. Changes in the estimated fair value of the Private Warrants and Subscription Warrants are recognized as non-cash gains or losses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Debt with Conversion and Other Options
The Company accounts for a series of unsecured senior promissory note agreements under ASC Topic 470-20-25-1, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASC 470-20-25-1”) and ASC Topic 815-15-30-2, Derivatives and Hedging - Embedded Derivatives (“ASC 815-15-30-2”). In accordance with ASC 470-20-25-1, the guidance on the allocation of proceeds for a debt instrument issued along with a derivative is to follow the guidance under ASC 815. In accordance with ASC 815-15-30-2, the proceeds from the sale of a debt instrument with stock purchase warrants (detachable call options) were allocated to the two elements using the with-and-without method at time of issuance.
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
All of the 1,844,774 Public Shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and subsequent full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option that have not been redeemed by stockholders, contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such redeemable common stock in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Therefore, all Public Shares been classified outside of permanent equity.
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by credits and charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit. The Company recorded increases in the redemption value of common stock subject to redemption of $103,177 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The Company recorded increases in the redemption value of common stock subject to redemption of $720,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of ASC Topic 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs (“ASC 340”) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A - Expenses of Offering. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $11,830,356 as a result of the Initial Public Offering (consisting of a $4,025,000 cash underwriting fee, $7,043,750 of deferred underwriting fees, and $761,606 of other offering costs). The Company recorded $10,660,961 of offering costs as a reduction of temporary equity in connection with the redeemable common stock included in the Units. The Company recorded $1,144,422 of offering costs as a reduction of permanent equity in connection with the Public Warrants and Rights classified as equity instruments. The Company immediately expensed $24,973 of offering costs in connection with the Private Warrants that were classified as liabilities.
Share-Based Payment Arrangements
The Company accounts for stock awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which requires that all equity awards be accounted for at their fair value. Fair value is measured on the grant date and is equal to the underlying value of the stock.
Costs equal to these fair values are recognized ratably over the requisite service period based on the number of awards that are expected to vest, or in the period of grant for awards that vest immediately and have no future service condition. For awards that vest over time, cumulative adjustments in later periods are recorded to the extent actual forfeitures differ from the Company’s initial estimates; previously recognized compensation cost is reversed if the service or performance conditions are not satisfied and the award is forfeited.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 of $765,613. The Company’s management determined that the United States is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
See Note 11 for additional information on income taxes for the periods presented.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per common share does not consider the effect of the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 3), Private Warrants, Subscription Warrants (as defined in Note 6), and Rights (as defined in Note 3) since the exercise of the warrants and Rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants and Rights are exercisable to purchase 22,068,750 shares of common stock in the aggregate.
The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company applies ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The carrying amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for financial instruments included within current assets and current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
Level 1 — Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.
See Note 10 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC 815. The Company’s derivative instruments are recorded at fair value and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. The Company has determined the Private Warrants and Subscription Warrants (as defined in Note 6) are derivative instruments. As the Private Warrants and Subscription Warrants meet the definition of a derivative, the warrants are measured at fair value at issuance and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820 with changes in fair value recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in the period of change. In accordance with ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company has concluded that a portion of the transaction costs which directly related to the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, should be allocated to the Private Warrants based on their relative fair value against total proceeds, and recognized as transaction costs in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Recent Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires companies to disclose, on an annual basis, specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, companies are required to disclose additional information about income taxes paid. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The standard is required to be adopted on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
On December 28, 2020, the Company sold 17,500,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”) and one right (the “Rights”). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half (1/2) of a share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per whole share. Each Right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-twentieth (1/20) of a share of common stock upon consummation of an initial Business Combination.
On December 30, 2020, the Company sold 2,625,000 Over-Allotment Units pursuant to the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option (see Note 7), generating aggregate of gross proceeds of $26,250,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 18,000,000 Private Warrants at a price of $0.50 per warrant ($9,000,000 in the aggregate), each exercisable to purchase one-half of one share common stock at a price of $11.50 per whole share, in a private placement that closed simultaneously with the closing of that offering. A portion of the purchase price of the Private Warrants was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account.
NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
In August 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.007 per share, to cover certain offering costs in consideration for 3,593,750 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Founder Shares”). On December 3, 2020, the Company declared a share dividend of 0.36 for each outstanding share, resulting in 4,887,500 shares outstanding, and on December 22, 2020 the Company declared a share dividend of 0.03 resulting in 5,031,250 shares which includes an aggregate of up to 656,250 shares that are subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, and up to an aggregate of 1,006,250 shares of common stock (or 875,000 shares of common stock to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment was not exercised, pro rata) that are subject to forfeiture to the extent that Rights are exercised upon consummation of an initial Business Combination. In connection with the underwriters’ fully exercise of their over-allotment option on December 30, 2020 (see Note 7), the 656,250 shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
The Founder Shares were placed into an escrow account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as escrow agent. 50% of these shares will not be transferred, assigned, sold or released from escrow until the earlier of (i) 6 months after the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s shares of common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the initial Business Combination and the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares will not be transferred, assigned, sold or released from escrow until 6 months after the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination, or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to its initial Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of its stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Company issued a series of unsecured senior promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of up to $4,000,000 (the “Notes”) to the subscribers. Of the $4,000,000 in Notes, $1,955,000 was subscribed for by several related parties affiliated with our sponsor, Viveon Health LLC, and the balance in the amount of $2,045,000 was subscribed for by parties that are not related to our sponsor.
Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements, the subscribers also received warrants to purchase one share of our common stock for every $2.00 of the funded principal amount of the Notes up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock, in the aggregate, at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Subscription Warrants”).

The Notes do not bear interest and mature upon the earlier of (i) the closing of our initial business combination, and (ii) December 31, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”). The Notes provide for a credit line up to the maximum amount of $4,000,000. We will not have the right to re-borrow any portion of any loans made under the Notes once repaid. As of March 31, 2023, a commitment fee in the amount of $400,000, equal to 10% of the maximum principal amount of the Note, had been paid to the subscribers, on a pro rata basis. In the event that we do not consummate a business combination by the Maturity Date, the Notes will be repaid only from amounts remaining outside of our Trust Account, if any. Subsequent to March 31, 2023, in connection with the Merger Agreement a majority of the holders of the Notes and Subscription Warrants have agreed to exchange such Notes and Subscription Warrants pursuant to the terms of an exchange agreement with Viveon dated as of May 1, 2023 (the Exchange Agreement”) for a separate series of Clearday senior convertible promissory notes (the “Clearday Senior Convertible Notes”). This exchange is contingent on the closing of the Business Combination. The Clearday Senior Convertible Notes bear 8% interest per annum and mature upon the earlier of (i) June 30, 2024, or (ii) the date of any Change in Control. Upon the consummation of the business combination and the exchange of the Subscription Agreements for the Clearday Senior Convertible Notes, the lenders will forfeit their Subscription Warrants as part of the exchange. One lender has chosen not to convert to Clearday Senior Convertible Notes. The balance owed to this lender under the Notes is considered due upon demand by the lender. As of the date of this filing of this Quarterly Report the lender has not requested payment of the Note.
On March 21, 2022, an initial amount of $2,700,000 was drawn down from the Notes. $720,000 of the loan proceeds was deposited into our Trust Account in connection with extending the business combination completion window from March 28, 2022 until June 28, 2022. After June 28, 2022, we elected to continue to extend such date until December 28, 2022 by making a monthly deposit of $240,000 into the Trust Account each month for each monthly period until December 28, 2022.
See Note 9 for additional terms of the Subscription Warrants. Pursuant to a warrant cancellation and forfeiture agreement dated as of August 16, 2023, one of the Company’s directors agreed to forfeit for cancellation 89,029 of the warrant shares underlying the warrant issued to an affiliate that he controls in connection with the Notes described above.
In accordance with ASC 470-20-25-1 and ASC 815-15-30-2, the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were allocated to the Notes and Subscription Warrants using the with-and-without method. Under this method, the Company first allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes to the Subscription Warrants based on their initial fair value measurement of $5,370,185 for the Subscription Warrants issued on March 21, 2022, $337,991 for the Subscription Warrants issued on March 23, 2022, $341,967 for the Subscription Warrants issued on April 4, 2022, $417,037 for the Subscription Warrants issued on April 27, 2022, $162,003 for the Subscription Warrants issued on May 9, 2022, $65,326 for the Subscription Warrants issued on October 27, 2022, and $121,093 for the Subscription Warrants issued on November 25, 2022. The measurement of the Subscription Warrants fair value was determined utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model considering all relevant assumptions current at the dates of issuance. See Note 10 for additional details on the assumptions used. The initial fair value of the Subscription Warrants exceeded the proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes. As such, the proceeds allocated to the Notes were $354,233. The Company recognized no gain or loss on issuance of the Subscription Warrants for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
On March 27, 2024, the Company held a Special Meeting of Shareholders (“the March 2024 Stockholders Meeting”) in which voted to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, to allow the Company to allow the Company to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination up to six times, each such extension for an additional one month period, until September 30, 2024 (the “Fourth Extended Date”), upon one calendar day advance notice to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, prior to the applicable monthly deadline, unless the closing of the proposed Business Combination with Clearday, Inc., or any potential alternative initial business combination shall have occurred prior to the Fourth Extended Date. It also voted to amend the Company’s Investment Management Trust Agreement, allowing the Company to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination up to six times, each such extension for an additional one month period, until September 30, 2024, by depositing into the Trust Account the amount of $35,000 (the “Extension Payment”) for each one-month extension until September 30, 2024. On March 28, 2024 a deposit of $35,000 was made into the Trust Account to extend to April 30, 2024.
The Company is currently in default of the Extension Payments for May and June of 2024. The Company anticipates that it will make the outstanding payments in June, 2024.

NOTE 8. STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
Preferred stock — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 and with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was no preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Common stock — The Company is authorized to issue 60,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 5,031,250 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, excluding 1,844,774 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption.
Rights — Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a Business Combination, each holder of a Right will automatically receive one-twentieth (1/20) of a share of common stock upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. In the event the Company will not be the surviving company upon completion of the initial Business Combination, each holder of a Right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order to receive the one-twentieth (1/20) of a share underlying each right upon consummation of the Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of Rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. As a result, holders must hold Rights in multiples of 20 in order to receive shares for all Rights upon closing of a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company redeems the Public Shares for the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Rights will not receive any of such funds for their Rights and the Rights will expire worthless.

Each Public Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half (1/2) of a share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per whole share, subject to adjustment. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its rights only for a whole number of shares. This means that only an even number of shares may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder.

| | |
| ● | at a price of $0.01 per warrant; |

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption as described above, its management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the Public Warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the Public Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the Public Warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Company’s common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Public Warrants. Whether the Company will exercise its option to require all holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a “cashless basis” will depend on a variety of factors including the price of our common shares at the time the Public Warrants are called for redemption, its cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.
If (x) the Company issues additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.50 per share of common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by its board of directors, and in the case of any such issuance to its Sponsor, initial stockholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any founders’ shares held by them prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of our initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of our initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the market value is below $9.50 per share, the exercise price of the Public Warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of (i) the market value or (ii) the price at which the Company issues the additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities and the $16.50 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 165% of the market value. The Public Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price, by certified or official bank check payable to the Company, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of shares of common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their Public Warrants and receive shares of common stock. After the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the Public Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.
Private Warrants
The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants except that the Private Warrants will be non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis at the option of the holder, in each case so long as they continue to be held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees.
Subscription Warrants
The Subscription Warrant term commences on the Exercise Date (as hereinafter defined) for a period of 49 months. The Subscription Warrants are exercisable commencing on the date of the initial Business Combination (the “Exercise Date”) and have a cashless exercise feature that is available at any time on or after the Exercise Date at the option of the holder. Commencing on the date 13 months following the Exercise Date, the subscribers have the right, but not the obligation, to put the Subscription Warrants to the Company at a purchase price of $5.00 per share. The Company has agreed to file, within thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of an initial Business Combination, a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register for resale the shares of common stock underlying the Subscription Warrants.

The warrant liabilities were measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company established the initial fair value of the Private Warrants on December 28, 2020, the date of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, and revalued on March 31, 2023 and on December 31, 2022, using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The Warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date, on March 31, 2023 and on December 31, 2022 due to the use of unobservable inputs.

1 | The contractual term of the Private Warrants is 5 years from the closing of a Business Combination. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the expected term remaining of the Private Warrants was calculated based on assumptions for both a successful and unsuccessful Business Combination resulting in a weighted expected term remaining of 1.44 and 2.11. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, this was calculated using an expected term remaining with an unsuccessful Business Combination of 1.00 year (weighted at 86% and 75.5% probability, respectively) and a successful business combination term remaining of 5.65 and 5.52 years (weighted at 14% and 24.5% probability, respectively). Prior to December 31, 2022 the expected term was calculated using only assumptions for a successful Business Combination. The change in the calculation was made as using an expected term that was calculated based only on the assumption that the Business Combination would be successful as an input under the Monte Carlo simulation model resulted in an unsolvable expected volatility under the Monte Carlo simulation model. |
The Company established the initial fair value of the Subscription Warrants on March 21, 2022, March 23, 2022, April 4, 2022, April 27, 2022, May 9,2022, October 27, 2022, and November 25, 2022 the dates of issuance, and revalued on March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

The Company recognized gains in connection with changes in the fair value of the Private and Subscription Warrants of $542,074 and $2,793,557 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 within gain on change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, respectively.
NOTE 11. INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was (61%) and 0%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 differs from the statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the recognition of gains or losses from the changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities and non-deductible transaction costs in connection with the Merger Agreement, partially offset by the change in valuation allowance. The Company has used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company believes that, at this time, the use of the discrete method for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 is more appropriate than the estimated annual effective tax rate method as the estimated annual effective tax rate method is not reliable due to a high degree of uncertainty in estimating annual pretax earnings.
NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than as described in Note 1, Note 2, Note 5, Note 6, Note 7 and below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

On December 22, 2023, the Company received a letter from the NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American” or the “Exchange”) stating that the staff of NYSE Regulation (the “Staff”) had determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s Common Stock, Units and Rights (collectively, the “Securities”) pursuant to Sections 119(b) and 119(f) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”) because the Company failed to consummate a business combination within 36 months of the effectiveness of its initial public offering registration statement, or such shorter period that the Company specified in its registration statement. The Company had the right to a review of the delisting determination by a Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) of the NYSE American’s Committee for Review (the “Committee”), of the Board of Directors of the Exchange, provided a written request for such had been received no later than December 29, 2023. The Company requested an in-person hearing to deliver an oral presentation to the Panel, which was held on February 13, 2024. The Panel’s hearing considered written and oral presentations made by the Company and the Staff.
On February 21, 2024, the Company received a letter from the NYSE American, that based upon the material and information presented to the Panel, discussion that occurred at the hearing and analysis of the NYSE American rules and the Company Guide, the Panel unanimously determined to affirm the Staff’s decision to initiate delisting proceedings because the Company did not consummate a merger within the maximum 36 months of the effectiveness of its initial public offering registration statement. The Company may request, as provided by Section 1205 of the Company Guide, that the full Committee reconsider the decision of the Panel. The request for the review and the required fee must be made in writing and received within 15 calendar days from the date of the letter.
On March 7, 2024, the Company requested that the full Committee reconsider the Panel’s decision to delist. At this time the Securities remain listed on the NYSE American, although trading has been suspended pending the outcome of the review by the full Committee, and the Securities are trading the over-the-counter market until the final determination has been made. If the full Committee does not overturn the decision by the Panel to delist, the Securities will be de-listed from the NYSE American and trade in the over-the-counter market. The scheduled final appeal date is July 18, 2024. The final determination is expected by the full Committee within one to two weeks thereafter.

Overview
We are a blank check company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on August 7, 2020 for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more target businesses. Although we are not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating an initial business combination, we intend to focus on businesses that have their primary operations located in North America in the healthcare industry. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of our Initial Public Offering in effecting our initial business combination.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our initial business combination will be successful.
As disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K on January 12, 2022, Viveon Health Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Viveon”), entered into a Merger Agreement (the “Old Merger Agreement”) by and among Viveon, VHAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Viveon (“Old Merger Sub”), and Suneva Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Suneva”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between Viveon and Suneva was proposed to be effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Suneva, with Suneva surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Viveon (the “Old Merger”). At the time of the signing of the Merger Agreement, the board of directors of Viveon had (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement, the Old Merger and the other transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) resolved to recommend approval of the Old Merger Agreement and related transactions by the stockholders of Viveon.
On February 2, 2023, legal counsel for Viveon sent a letter informing Suneva’s legal counsel that Viveon decided, effective immediately, to unilaterally terminate the Old Merger Agreement pursuant to Sections 10.2(a) and 10.2 thereof, based upon material breaches of the Old Merger Agreement by Suneva. The termination letter was sent without prejudice and reserved all of Viveon, Old Merger Sub and Viveon Health, LLC (Viveon’s sponsor) rights, claims and remedies, specifically including those within the Old Merger Agreement, against Suneva and others associated with Suneva who participated in the merger discussions and arrangements, and waived none.
On March 18, 2022, the Company held an Annual Meeting of Stockholders for the purpose of approving various proposals, including an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to extend the date to consummate the Business Combination.
On March 18, 2022, stockholders elected to redeem 15,092,126 shares of our common stock, resulting in redemption payments out of the trust account totaling approximately $152,451,819. Subsequent to the redemptions, 5,032,874 shares of common stock remained in the trust account.
On March 21, 2022, an initial amount of $2,700,000 was drawn down from the Notes. $720,000 of the loan proceeds was deposited into our trust account in connection with extending the business combination completion window from the Original Termination Date until June 28, 2022. After June 28, 2022, we elected to continue to extend such date until December 28, 2022 (the “December Extension Date”), by making a monthly deposit of $240,000 into the trust account each month for each monthly period, until the December Extension Date. We deposited $240,000 into the trust account on each of June 23, 2022, July 26, 2022, August 30, 2022, September 28, 2022, October 28, 2022, and November 25, 2022 to extend the business combination completion window to July 28, 2022, August 28, 2022, September 28, 2022, October 28, 2022, November 28, 2022, and December 28, 2022, respectively.

Thereafter, we deposited $100,000 for each such monthly period. As disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 28, 2022, the Amendment was approved by our stockholders at our Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on December 28, 2022.

On June 27, 2023, we filed a third amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment allows us, to (i) initially extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination up to six times, each such extension for an additional one month period, until December 31, 2023, by depositing into the trust account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”) the amount of $85,000 for each one-month extension until December 31, 2023, and (ii) further extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination (without seeking additional approval from the stockholders) for up to an additional three months, from January 1, 2024 to March 31, 2024, with no additional deposits to be made into the Trust Account during such period, each such extension for an additional one month period, (the “Third Extended Date”), unless the closing of the proposed initial business combination with Clearday, Inc., or any potential alternative initial business combination shall have occurred prior to the Third Extended Date.
On March 21, 2022, March 23, 2022, April 4, 2022, April 27, 2022, May 9, 2022, October 27, 2022, and November 25, 2022, we entered into subscription agreements with several lenders for a loan of up to $4,000,000, in the aggregate (the “Subscription Agreements”).
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, we issued a series of unsecured senior promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of up to $4,000,000 (the “Notes”) to the subscribers. Of the $4,000,000 in Notes, $1,955,000 was subscribed for by several related parties affiliated with our sponsor, Viveon Health LLC, and the balance in the amount of $2,045,000 was subscribed for by parties that are not related to our sponsor.
On March 27, 2024, we held a Special Meeting of Shareholders in which we voted to amend the our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, to allowing us to extend the date by which we must consummate a business combination up to six times, each such extension for an additional one month period, until September 30, 2024, upon one calendar day advance notice to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, prior to the applicable monthly deadline, unless the closing of the proposed Business Combination with Clearday, Inc., or any potential alternative initial business combination shall have occurred prior to the Fourth Extended Date.

On March 28, 2024 a deposit of $35,000 was made into the Trust Account to extend to April 30, 2024.

On March 27, 2024 stockholders elected to redeem 968,350 Public Shares, resulting in a redemption of $11,267,175 from the Trust Account. Subsequent to the redemptions, 649,065 Public Shares remained.
Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements, the subscribers also received warrants to purchase one share of our common stock for every $2.00 of the funded principal amount of the Notes up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock, in the aggregate, at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Subscription Warrants”). The Subscription Warrant term commences on the Exercise Date (as hereinafter defined) for a period of 49 months. The Subscription Warrants are exercisable commencing on the date of the initial business combination (the “Exercise Date”) and have a cashless exercise feature that is available at any time on or after the Exercise Date. Commencing on the date 13 months following the Exercise Date, the subscribers have the right, but not the obligation, to put the Subscription Warrants to us at a purchase price of $5.00 per share. We have agreed to file, within thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of an initial business combination, a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register for resale the shares of common stock underlying the Subscription Warrants.
The Notes do not bear interest and mature upon the earlier of (i) the closing of our initial business combination, and (ii) December 31, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”). The Notes provide for a credit line up to the maximum amount of $4,000,000. We will not have the right to re-borrow any portion of any loans made under the Notes once repaid. As of December 31, 2022, a commitment fee in the amount of $400,000, equal to 10% of the maximum principal amount of the Note, had been paid to the subscribers, on a pro rata basis. In the event that we do not consummate a business combination by the Maturity Date, the Notes will be repaid only from amounts remaining outside of our Trust Account, if any. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, in connection with the Merger Agreement (as defined below) a majority of the holders of the Notes and Subscription Warrants have agreed to exchange such Notes and Subscription Warrants pursuant to the terms of an exchange agreement with Viveon dated as of May 1, 2023 (the Exchange Agreement”) for a separate series of Clearday senior convertible promissory notes (the “Clearday Senior Convertible Notes”). The exchange is contingent on the closing of the Business Combinations. The Clearday Senior Convertible Notes bear 8% interest per annum and mature upon the earlier of (i) June 30, 2024, or (ii) the date of any Change in Control. Upon the consummation of the business combination and the exchange of the Subscription Agreements for the Clearday Senior Convertible Notes, the lenders will forfeit their Subscription Warrants as part of the exchange. One lender has chosen not to convert to Clearday Senior Convertible Notes. The balance owed to this lender under the Notes is considered due upon demand by the lender. As of the date of this filing of this Quarterly Report the lender has not requested payment of the Note. Pursuant to a warrant cancellation and forfeiture agreement dated as of August 16, 2023, one of the Company’s directors agreed to forfeit for cancellation 89,029 of the warrant shares underlying the warrant issued to an affiliate that he controls in connection with the Notes described above.
In accordance with ASC Topic 470-20-25-1, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASC 470-20-25-1”) and ASC Topic 815-15-30-2, Derivatives and Hedging - Embedded Derivatives (“ASC 815-15-30-2”), the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were allocated to the Notes and Subscription Warrants using the with-and-without method. Under this method, the Company first allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes to the Subscription Warrants based on their initial fair value measurement. The measurement of the Subscription Warrants fair value was determined utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model considering all relevant assumptions current at the dates of issuance. See Note 10 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more details on the assumptions used. The initial fair value of certain Subscription Warrants exceeded the proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes. In these instances, the proceeds allocated to the Notes were nil, and the Company recognized a loss on the issuance of those Subscription Warrants. In other instances, the fair value of Subscription Warrants did not exceed the proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes. As such a portion of the proceeds equal to the fair value of the Subscription Warrants on the date of issuance was allocated to the Subscription Warrants. The remaining proceeds were allocated to the Notes issued.
Discounts to the principal amounts are included in the carrying value of the Notes and amortized to “Interest expense” over the remaining term of the underlying debt to the Original Maturity Date. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the discount was fully amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt to the Original Maturity Date. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the amortization of the discount resulted in interest expense of $0 and $99,543, respectively.

This loan was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of March 31, 2021 or the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

As noted above the total amount funded under the promissory notes - related party is $607,000 and $75,000 as of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company considered the imputed interest from the promissory notes - related party as capital contributions increasing Additional Paid-in Capital on the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity on the date the loans were funded. The debt discount is amortized over the length of the loan considered to be the earlier of a business combination or December 31, 2023, using their synthetic credit rating, which is an estimate of the effective interest rate at which the Company could borrow within the open market.

(i) by either the Company or Clearday, if (A) the Merger and related transactions are not consummated on or before the latest of (i) June 30, 2023, (ii) if the Extension Proposal is approved, September 30, 2023 and (iii) if one or more extensions to a date following September 30, 2023 are obtained at the election of the Company, with the Company’s stockholder vote, in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the last date for the Company to consummate a business combination pursuant to such extensions; and (B) the material breach or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation under the Merger Agreement by the party seeking to terminate the Merger Agreement was not the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the closing to occur on or before the outside Closing Date, without liability to the other party;
(ii) by either the Company or Clearday, if any authority has issued any final decree, order, judgment, award, injunction, rule or consent or enacted any law, having the effect of permanently enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, provided that, the party seeking to terminate cannot have breached its obligations under the Merger Agreement and such breach was a substantial cause of, or substantially resulted in, such action by the authority; and
(iii) by mutual written consent of the Company and Clearday duly authorized by each of their respective boards of directors
The Merger Agreement and other agreements described below have been included to provide investors with information regarding their respective terms. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, Clearday or the other parties thereto. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement were made as of a specified date, are modified or qualified by information in one or more disclosure letters prepared in connection with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from what might be viewed as material to investors, or may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties. Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement are not necessarily characterizations of the actual state of facts about the Company, Clearday or the other parties thereto at the time they were made or otherwise and should only be read in conjunction with the other information that the Company or Clearday makes publicly available in reports, statements and other documents filed with the SEC. The Company and Clearday investors and securityholders are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement.
Certain Related Agreements
Parent Support Agreements.
Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company, Clearday and the Sponsor and the officers and directors of the Company entered into a support agreement (the “Parent Support Agreement”) pursuant to which the Sponsor and the officers and directors of the Company have agreed to vote all shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by them, including any additional shares of the Company they acquire ownership of or the power to vote: (i) in favor of the Merger and related transactions, (ii) against any action reasonably be expected to impede, delay, or materially and adversely affect the Merger and related transactions, and (iii) in favor of an extension of the period of time the Company is afforded to consummate an initial business combination.
Company Support Agreements.
Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company, Clearday and certain stockholders of Clearday entered into a support agreement (the “Company Support Agreement”), pursuant to which such Clearday stockholders have agreed to vote all common and preferred stock of Clearday beneficially owned by them, including any additional shares of Clearday they acquire ownership of or the power to vote, in favor of the Merger and related transactions and against any action reasonably be expected to impede, delay, or materially and adversely affect the Merger and related transactions.
Lock-Up Agreements.
In connection with the closing, certain Clearday stockholders will each agree, subject to certain customary exceptions, not to (i) offer, sell contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any lockup shares, (ii) enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, (iii) enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the lock-up shares or otherwise, (iv) engage in any short sales or other arrangement with respect to the lock-up shares or (v) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) until the date that is six months after the Closing Date (the “Lock-Up Period”). The term “Lockup Shares” mean the Merger Consideration Shares and the Earnout Shares, if any, whether or not earned prior to the end of the Lock-up Period, together with any other shares of the Company’s common stock, and including any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or representing the rights to receive the Company’s common stock, if any, acquired during the Lock-up Period. If the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period following the Closing Date, 50% of the Lock-up Shares will be released from the lock-up. The existing escrow provisions of the Company’s common stock held by certain stockholders will remain in effect.
Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement.
At the Closing, the Company will enter into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”) with certain existing stockholders of the Company and Clearday with respect to their shares of the Company’s common stock acquired before or pursuant to the Merger, and including the shares issuable on conversion of the warrants issued to the Sponsor in connection with the Company’s initial public offering and any shares issuable on conversion of loans or other convertible securities. The agreement amends and restates the registration rights agreement the Company entered into on December 22, 2020 in connection with its initial public offering. Subject to the Lock-Up Agreements described above, the holders of a majority of the shares held by the Company’s existing stockholders, and the holders of a majority of the shares held by the Clearday stockholders will each be entitled to make one demand that Clearday register such securities for resale under the Securities Act, or two demands each if the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 or a similar short-form registration statement. In addition, the holders will have certain “piggy-back” registration rights that require the Company to include such securities in registration statements that the Company otherwise files. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities three months ended March 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were organizational activities, identifying target companies for a business combination, conducting due diligence on such target companies and negotiating the Old Merger Agreement with Suneva, which was terminated on February 2, 2023, and negotiating the Merger Agreement with Clearday. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our business combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held after our initial public offering. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we had a net income of, which $262,930 consisted of a gain on the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $542,074, interest and dividend income on investments held in Trust Account of $225,932, income tax benefit of $99,500, and interest income on the operating bank account of $35, partially offset by professional fees of $301,389, operating costs of $268,674, and franchise tax expense of $25,753, offset by approximately $8,795 of amortization.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had a net loss of $1,608,194 which consisted of a loss on the issuance of subscription warrants of $2,838,176, professional fees of $826,290, formation and operating costs of $283,686, expensed issuance costs of $319,000, franchise tax expense of $47,981 and amortization of the debt discount of $99,543, partially offset by a change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $2,793,557, interest income on investments held in Trust Account of $12,914 and interest income on the operating bank account of $11.
Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $173,986, which was due to the change in fair value of the warrant liabilities of $542,074 and interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $225,932, partially offset in part by our net income of $262,930, amortization of the debt discount of $8,795 and changes in working capital of $290,697.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $433,624, which was due to the change in fair value of the warrant liabilities of $2,793,557, our net loss of $1,608,194, and interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $12,914, partially offset in part by loss on the issuance of the subscription warrants of $2,838,176, changes in working capital of $724,322, expensed issuance costs of $319,000 and amortization of the debt discount of $99,543.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash provided by investing activities was $33,704,514, which resulted from cash withdrawn from Trust Account to pay redeeming stockholders of $34,004,514, partially offset in part by cash deposited for the extension contribution of $300,000.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by investing activities was $151,731,819 which resulted from cash withdrawn from Trust Account of $152,451,819 to pay redeeming stockholders, offset in part by cash deposited for the extension contribution of $720,000.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $33,472,514, which was due to the redemption of common stock of $34,004,514, partially offset by proceeds from note agreements payable to related party of $532,000.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $149,613,819, which was due to the redemption of common stock of $152,451,819 and the payment of issuance costs of $32,000, offset in part by proceeds from note agreements payable of $1,845,000, proceeds from note agreements payable - related party of $1,025,000.
As of March 31, 2023, we had cash and marketable securities in the trust account of $20,336,813. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the trust account (less taxes payable and deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial business combination with Clearday. We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we did not withdraw any of the interest income from the Trust Account to pay for franchise and income taxes. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Initial Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
As of March 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $77,861 outside of the Trust Account and a working capital deficit of $7,758,270.
In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB’s ASC Subtopic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern, management has determined that if we are unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs or complete a business combination by September 30, 2024 in accordance with the latest extension, then we will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating, unless we seek stockholder approval to amend our current charter to extend the date by which we complete a business combination. The liquidity condition and date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern one year from the date that these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern. We intend to complete a business combination before the mandatory liquidation date or obtain approval from our stockholders to amend our current charter for an extension.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities other than an agreement to pay an affiliate of our sponsor a monthly fee of $20,000 for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support and the series of unsecured senior promissory note agreements we entered into with several lenders affiliated with our Sponsor. We began incurring these monthly fees on December 22, 2020 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination and our liquidation.
Chardan, the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering, is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $7,043,750. The deferred fee will become payable to Chardan from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of December 22, 2020, between the Company and Chardan (the “Underwriting Agreement”). A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is incorporated by reference in Exhibit 1.1 of this Quarterly Report, and all references herein to the Underwriting Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement.
In addition, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we granted Chardan for a period of 12 months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, a right of first refusal to act as book-running managing underwriter or placement agent, with at least 30% of the economics, for any and all future public and private equity, convertible and debt offerings (the “ROFR”). On April 20, 2021, pursuant to the terms of an Addendum to the Underwriting Agreement, Chardan waived and released the ROFR. Subsequently, on July 12, 2021, we entered into a Letter Agreement with Chardan (the “Letter Agreement”) that reinstates the ROFR in the event Chardan introduces us to a target that results in a Business Combination and entitles Chardan to a fee equal to 0.5% of the aggregate value of the target measured prior to the Business Combination, paid in cash or shares at the close of the Business Combination. A copy of the Letter Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.23 of this Quarterly Report, and all references herein to the Letter Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement.
On May 18, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a transactional and strategic advisory firm (the “Strategic Advisor”) for advisory services as needed by the Company in connection with a Business Combination.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $500,000 of such fees remain unpaid and are included in accrued costs and expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. On November 1, 2021, the Company and the Strategic Advisor entered into an amendment to the agreement. Pursuant to this amendment, the Company will pay the Strategic Advisor a fee of $2,625,000, inclusive of the $500,000 accrued as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The remaining $2,125,000 is contingent upon the consummation of the Business Combination.
On October, 8, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a financial advisor (the “Exclusive Financial Advisor”) for financial advisory services such as financial and transaction feasibility analysis, assistance in negotiations, assistance in capital planning, and other customary services in connection with a Business Combination, pursuant to which the Company will pay the Exclusive Financial Advisor a fee of $1,500,000 contingent upon the consummation of the Business Combination. This agreement was terminated on January 31, 2023 as a result of the termination of the merger agreement between the Company and Suneva.
On October 25, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a Consultant for investor relations and public relations services in connection with a Business Combination with Suneva. The Consulting Agreement specifically identified Suneva as the target of the Business Combination. Pursuant to the agreement, the Consultant would be paid a fee of $15,000 per month from the date of the agreement until the Business Combination with Suneva, with an additional $15,000 accruing each month until the Business Combination date. Additionally, pursuant to the agreement the Consultant would be paid a success fee of $300,000 contingent upon the consummation of the Business Combination with Suneva, a performance based fee of up to $200,000 upon the consummation of the Business Combination with Suneva if the Consultant achieved certain objectives, a retainer of $34,000 due upon the consummation of the Business Combination with Suneva which would be held to the term of the agreement, a fee of $17,000 per month for investor relations services for the combined entity commencing upon the consummation of the Business Combination with Suneva with the first payment due within 5 days of the Business Combination with Suneva and subsequent monthly payments due upon the first of the corresponding month of services, and a fee of $17,000 per month for public relations services for the combined entity commencing upon the consummation of the Business Combination with Suneva with the first payment due within 5 days of the Business Combination with Suneva and subsequent monthly payments due upon the first of the corresponding month of services. The Consultant stopped providing services in February 2023.
On November 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a financial advisor (the “Second Financial Advisor”) for financial advisory services such as guidance on valuation and transaction structure and terms, assistance in negotiations, coordination of due diligence, documentation, and transaction closing, and introduction of the Company to institutional investors in connection with a Business Combination, pursuant to which the Company will pay the Second Financial Advisor a fee of $400,000 contingent upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

This agreement was terminated on June 9, 2023, as a result of the termination of the merger agreement between the Company and Suneva. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement the Broker-Dealer will remain entitled to the fee of $250,000 if a Business Combination is consummated within 24 months after the termination date. The Company is pursuing a waiver from the Broker-Dealer to waive the $250,000 fee upon a Business Combination. As such, the fee remains contingent upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

Contingencies
On October 5, 2023, a legal complaint was filed in Connecticut Superior Court against the Company and Suneva by the Consultant. The Complaint alleges that the Company and Suneva owe the Consultant unpaid fees under an October 25, 2021 consulting agreement and asserts claims for breach of contract, breach of implied contract, unjust enrichment, and quantum meruit. As of the date of this filing, this action is not pending and has not been officially docketed with the Connecticut Superior Court. The Company is continuing to assess the merits of the complaint but believes that the claims by the Consultant against the Company are without merit and the Company intends to defend the action if it is properly initiated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ from those estimates. The initial valuation of the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 3), Rights (as defined in Note 3) common stock subject to redemption and the periodic valuation of the Private Warrants and Subscription Warrants (as defined in Note 6) required management to exercise significant judgement in its estimates.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
All of the 1,844,774 public shares sold as part of the units in our initial public offering and subsequent full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option that have not been redeemed by stockholders, contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such redeemable common stock in connection with our liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with our initial business combination and in connection with certain amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Therefore, all redeemable common stock have been classified outside of permanent equity.
We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges and credits to against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.
Net Income (loss) per Common Share
Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per common share does not consider the effect of the warrants and rights issued in connection with the (i) initial public offering, (ii) exercise of over-allotment, (iii) Private Placement, and (iv) extension financing since the exercise of the warrants and rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants and rights are exercisable to purchase 22,068,750 shares of common stock in the aggregate.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company’s derivative instruments are recorded at fair value and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument’ could be required within 12 months of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet date. The Company has determined that the Public Warrants qualify for equity treatment and are not derivative instruments. The Public Warrants were measured at fair value and recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. The Company has determined that the private warrants and Subscription Warrants are derivative instruments. As the private warrants and Subscription Warrants meet the definition of a derivative, the private warrants and Subscription Warrants are measured at fair value at issuance and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations in the period of change. In accordance with ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company has concluded that a portion of the transaction costs which directly related to the initial public offering and the private placement, should be allocated to the Private Warrants based on their relative fair value, against total proceeds, and recognized as transaction costs in the statement of operations.
Debt with Conversion and Other Options
The Company accounts for a series of unsecured senior promissory note agreements under ASC 470-20-25-1 and ASC 815-15-30-2. In accordance with ASC 470-20-25-1, the guidance on the allocation of proceeds for a debt instrument issued along with a derivative is to follow the guidance under ASC 815. In accordance with ASC 815-15-30-2, the proceeds from the sale of a debt instrument with stock purchase warrants (detachable call options) were allocated to the two elements using the with-and-without method at time of issuance.
Recent Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires companies to disclose, on an annual basis, specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, companies are required to disclose additional information about income taxes paid. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The standard is required to be adopted on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The Company identified a material weakness in its internal controls related to accounting for complex financial instruments.
In addition, management identified deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting relating to the process of recording accounts payable, accrued expenses, tax liabilities and concluded that the failure to properly account for such accrued expenses constituted a material weakness as defined in the SEC regulations. Management additionally determined that a new material weakness existed as of March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022 related to properly evaluating and disclosing contractual arrangements and differentiating them as contractual liabilities or accounting contingencies. As such, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer determined that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of March 31, 2023.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. In light of the restatement of our financial statements as described above, we plan to enhance our processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements to better evaluate and understand the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial statements. Our plans at this time include providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. In addition, we plan to enhance our processes to identify and record potential accruals and identify any necessary disclosures of agreements with service providers. Our plans at this time include increased communication with third-party service providers and additional procedures to identify and review subsequent invoices, disbursements, and agreements. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We may be subject to legal proceedings, investigations and claims incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are not currently a party to any material litigation or other legal proceedings brought against us. We are also not aware of any legal proceeding, investigation or claim, or other legal exposure that has a more than remote possibility of having a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
On October 5, 2023, a legal complaint was filed in Connecticut Superior Court against the Company and Suneva Medical, Inc. (“Suneva”) by ICR, LLC (“the Consultant”). The Complaint alleges that the Company and Suneva owe the Consultant unpaid fees under an October 25, 2021 consulting agreement and asserts claims for breach of contract, breach of implied contract, unjust enrichment, and quantum meruit. As of the date of this filing, this action is not pending and has not been officially docketed with the Connecticut Superior Court. The Company is continuing to assess the merits of the complaint but believes that the claims by the Consultant against the Company are without merit and the Company intends to defend the action if it is properly initiated.
