This prospectus supplement supplements the prospectus dated March 23, 2020 (the “Prospectus”), which forms a part of our registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-236011). This prospectus supplement is being filed to update and supplement the information in the Prospectus with the information contained in our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on August 21, 2020 (the “Current Report”). Accordingly, we have attached the Current Report to this prospectus supplement.

 

The Prospectus and this prospectus supplement relate to (i) the issuance by us of up to 9,601,909 shares of our Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), which consists of (A) 5,268,576 shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants that were issued in our initial public offering pursuant to the registration statement declared effective on February 15, 2018 (the “public warrants”) and (B) 4,333,333 shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants initially issued to Deerfield/RAB Ventures LLC (our “Sponsor”) in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with our initial public offering (the “private placement warrants” and collectively with the public warrants, the “warrants”), which private placement warrants have been distributed from the Sponsor to its members, and (ii) the offer and sale from time to time in one or more offerings by the selling securityholders identified in the Prospectus of up to 75,053,512 shares of our Class A Common Stock and up to 4,333,333 private placement warrants.

 

Our Class A Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) and trades under the symbol “AHCO”. On August 19, 2020, the closing price of our Class A Common Stock was $22.75. Our public warrants were formerly listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “AHCOW” and were suspended from trading on Nasdaq on December 6, 2019 because the public warrants did not satisfy the minimum 300 round lot holder requirement for listing, at which time the warrants became eligible to trade “over-the-counter” under the trading symbol “AHCOW”. A Form 25-NSE with respect to the public warrants was filed by Nasdaq on January 21, 2020, and the formal delisting of the public warrants became effective ten days thereafter. The private placement warrants are not listed on any exchange.

Exhibit 10.1

 

TRANSITION, SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT

 

This Transition, Separation and Release Agreement (this “Agreement”), delivered August 10, 2020 (the “Offer Date”), confirms the following understandings and agreements between AdaptHealth Corp. (the “Company”) and Gregg Holst (hereinafter referred to as “you” or “your”).

 

In consideration of the promises set forth herein, you and the Company agree as follows:

 

1.            Opportunity for Review; Acceptance.

 

(a)           You have until August 31, 2020 (the “Review Period”), to review and consider this Agreement. To accept this Agreement, and the terms and conditions contained herein, prior to the expiration of the Review Period, you must execute and date this Agreement where indicated below and return the executed copy of this Agreement to Christopher Joyce, General Counsel (the “Company Representative”). You acknowledge that, to the extent there are changes made to the terms of this Agreement, whether they are material or immaterial, the Review Period is not recommenced.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement will not become effective or enforceable for a period of seven (7) calendar days following the date of your execution of this Agreement (the “Revocation Period”), during which time you may revoke your acceptance of this Agreement by notifying the Company Representative, in writing, as specified above. To be effective, such revocation must be received by the Company Representative no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the seventh (7th) calendar day following your execution of this Agreement. Provided that this Agreement is executed during the Review Period and you do not revoke it during the Revocation Period, the eighth (8th) day following the date on which this Agreement is executed and delivered to the Company Representative shall be its effective date (the “Effective Date”). In the event that you fail to execute and deliver this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Review Period or otherwise revoke this Agreement during the Revocation Period, this Agreement will be null and void and of no effect, and neither the Company nor any other member of the Company Group (as defined below) will have any obligations hereunder.

 

2.            Employment Status; Accrued Benefits; Transition Period; Separation Benefits.

 

(a)           Employment Status. You acknowledge and agree that your employment with the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, and affiliates (collectively, with the Company, the “Company Group”), will terminate effective as of the close of business on September 1, 2020 (the “Separation Date”). You will not represent yourself as being an employee, officer, agent, or representative of the Company or any other member of the Company Group after the Separation Date. During the period between the Offer Date and the Separation Date, you will remain on the Company’s active payroll, be paid your current salary in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, and continue to participate in all employee benefit plans and other programs or arrangements sponsored by or through the Company and any other member of the Company Group in which you are eligible to participate (the “Benefit Plans”). You hereby confirm your resignations from all offices, directorships, trusteeships, committee memberships and fiduciary and other capacities held with, or on behalf of, the Company Group effective as of August 3, 2020 (the “Transition Date”) and your execution of this Agreement will be deemed the grant by you to the officers of the Company of a limited power of attorney to sign in your name and on your behalf any such documentation as may be required to be executed solely for the limited purposes of effectuating such resignations. You agree that within five (5) business days following the Effective Date, you will update your accounts or profiles on any social media platform (including, but not limited to, Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn) to reflect that you are no longer actively employed by the Company.

 

 

 

 

(b)           Accrued Benefits. The Separation Date shall be the termination date of your employment for purposes of participation in and coverage under all Benefit Plans, except as otherwise provided herein. You will be paid for (i) all of your earned but unpaid salary through the Separation Date on or prior to the Company’s next regularly scheduled payroll date on or following the Separation Date, or earlier to the extent otherwise required by applicable law, (ii) your accrued but unused vacation as of the Separation Date to the extent required by the Company’s policies, payable on or prior to the Company’s next regularly scheduled payroll date on or following the Separation Date; and (iii) any business expenses incurred prior to the Separation Date and properly submitted in accordance with the Company’s policies and procedures within ten (10) days following the Separation Date. In addition, you will be entitled to continued medical and health benefits under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), and additional information concerning such benefits will be provided to you under separate cover following the Separation Date.

 

(c)           Transition Period. During the period between the Transition Date and the Separation Date (the “Transition Period”), you agree to cooperate with the Company and/or any other member of the Company Group, provide information, answer questions and provide guidance as requested from time to time relating to any matter on which you will have worked prior to the Transition Date or of which you have knowledge. You shall perform your duties during the Transition Period on a full-time basis at such location or locations as may be reasonably determined by the Company.

 

(d)           Separation Benefits. In consideration of your release and waiver of claims set forth in Section 3 below and in the reaffirmation of this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Reaffirmation”), and subject to your execution, delivery and non-revocation of this Agreement and continued compliance with this Agreement, including but not limited to Section 11 and Section 12 hereof, the Company will provide you with the following separation benefits (collectively, the “Consideration”):

 

(1)        Separation Payment. Payment of $500,000 in substantially equal installments over a period of twelve (12) months in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, commencing on the first regularly scheduled payroll date following the Reaffirmation Effective Date (as defined in the Reaffirmation); and

 

(2)        COBRA. At the expense of the Company and subject to your timely election of COBRA continuation coverage, continuation of your enrollment under the Company’s group health insurance plan as of the Separation Date during the period beginning on the Separation Date and ending on June 30, 2023, subject to the same coverage limits, deductibles, co-insurance provisions and other terms and conditions as existed while you were employed by the Company,; provided, that the coverage pursuant to this Section 2(d)(2) shall cease earlier June 30, 2023 in the event that you become eligible to receive any health benefits as a result of subsequent employment or service with any other person or entity or otherwise (which such eligibility shall be promptly reported by you to the Company). Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the Company’s payment of the COBRA premiums during the period from the Separation Date through June 30, 2023 will be taxable to you.

(e)            Deferral of Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any amount would otherwise have been payable as a result of Section 2(d) prior to the Reaffirmation Effective Date, such amount shall not be paid until the first regular payroll date following the Reaffirmation Effective Date.

 

(f)            Full Discharge. You acknowledge and agree that the payment(s) and other benefits provided pursuant to this Section 2 are in full discharge of any and all liabilities and obligations of the Company or any other member of the Company Group to you, monetarily or with respect to employee benefits or otherwise, including but not limited to any and all obligations arising under the Employment Agreement between you and AdaptHealth, LLC, dated November 10, 2014 (the “Employment Agreement”), any other alleged written or oral employment agreement, policy, plan or procedure of the Company or any other member of the Company Group and/or any alleged understanding or arrangement between you and the Company or any other member of the Company Group (other than claims for accrued and vested benefits under an employee benefit, insurance, or pension plan of the Company or any other member of the Company Group (excluding any severance or similar plan or policy), subject to the terms and conditions of such plan(s)).
