Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Redemption Agreement
On January 22, 2025, La Rosa Holdings Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and an institutional accredited investor (the “Holder”), holding the warrants (the “Warrants”) exercisable for 2,446,634 shares of common stock of the Company (assuming a cash exercise of the warrants), entered into a warrant redemption and cancellation agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”).
As previously reported in Current Reports of the Company on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 5, 2024, and July 19, 2024, the Company and the Holder entered into the securities purchase agreements dated April 1, 2024, and July 16, 2024, respectively (the “Agreements”), pursuant to which the Company issued the Warrants.
Pursuant to the Redemption Agreement, on or before February 3, 2025 the Company shall pay to the Holder $379,082.79 (the “Redemption Price”) in consideration of the redemption and cancellation of the 100% of the Warrants. Upon the Holder’s receipt of the Redemption Price, the Warrants shall be redeemed, cancelled and terminated in full. From January 22, 2025 to February 3, 2025, the Holder shall not have a right to exercise any of the Warrants partially or in full. If the Holder does not receive the Redemption Price on or prior to February 3, 2025, the Redemption Agreement shall automatically be null and void and of no further force or effect.
Additionally, the Company and the Holder confirmed in the Redemption Agreement, that prior to January 22, 2025, (1) the First Warrants (as defined in the Agreements) issued by the Company to the Holder in February 2024 and July 2024 were fully exercised by the Holder, and (2) the Second Warrant (as defined in the Agreement) issued by the Company to the Holder in February 2024 was cancelled and extinguished in its entirety due to the full repayment of the Note (as defined in such warrant).
Amendment to the Waiver
As previously reported in Current Report of the Company on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 10, 2025, the Company and the Holder entered into that certain waiver (the “Waiver”) dated January 8, 2025, waiving the Event of Default (as defined in the Notes) under those certain senior secured promissory notes dated February 20, 2024, April 1, 2024, and July 16, 2024 (collectively, the “Notes”).
On January 22, 2025, the Company and the Holder signed an amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Waiver.
Pursuant to the Amendment, Section 2 of the Waiver shall be modified to read that the Company shall pay 100% of any cash proceeds raised by the Company from the sale of securities pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on or around November 22, 2024, and declared effective by the SEC on or around December 19, 2024 (the “Proceeds”) to the Holder first towards the repayment of the Redemption Price until it is paid in full, and after that towards the repayment of the Notes, provided, however, that (i) any such payment shall be made by the Company to the Holder on a Friday of the week during which such Proceeds were raised by the Company, (ii) any Proceeds from the sale of such securities sold on or before January 8, 2025 shall be excluded, and (iii) any Proceeds received by the Holder before January 21, 2025 shall be applied towards the repayment of the Notes. The Amendment also provides that, if the Redemption Agreement becomes null and void pursuant to the terms of the Redemption Agreement, then all Proceeds previously paid by the Company to the Holder pursuant to the Redemption Agreement shall instead be applied towards the repayment of the Notes.
The preceding descriptions of the Redemption Agreement and the Amendment purport to be summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference
