SCHEDULE 13D

(Amendment No. 1)

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

Item 1 of the Original 13D (as defined below) is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

This is Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the original Schedule 13D, filed on June 21, 2021, (the “Original Schedule 13D”) by the Reporting Person. This statement relates to the common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of UpHealth, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”), whose principal executive offices are at 14000 S. Military Trail, Suite 203, Delray Beach, FL 33484.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

No amendment is being made here to the information included in the correlated Item 2 section of the Original Schedule 13D, except subsection (b) is amended and restated in its entirety as follows: (b) The address of Dr. Kathuria is 19W160 Ave Latour, Oak Brook, IL 60523.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Original 13D is amended and supplemented to add the following:

Of the shares reported herein, (i) 43,100,443 shares of Common Stock were acquired pursuant to the Business Combination and (ii) 58,309 shares of Common Stock were acquired upon the vesting of restricted stock units previously granted to the Reporting Person, including 40,376 shares that vested on May 1, 2022, without the payment by the Reporting person of other funds or similar consideration.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

The Reporting Person originally acquired the Common Stock for investment purposes, but has become troubled by the precipitous decline in the trading price of the Company’s common stock in recent months. Accordingly, the Reporting Person has discussed these concerns with other significant stockholders of the Company. Following those discussions, the Reporting Person took the following actions:

 

  (a)

The Reporting Person, in his capacity as a stockholder of the Company, entered into a Voting Agreement, dated May 27, 2022, (the “Voting Agreement”) with certain other stockholders of the Company. A copy of the Voting Agreement is included herein as Exhibit 99.2 within Item 7. (Reporting Person and the other stockholders who are parties to the Voting Agreement shall be collectively referenced hereinafter as the “Stockholder Group”. The aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock owned by them constitutes a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company as of the date of this filing.) Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Stockholder Group agreed to vote the shares of the Common Stock owned by them in favor of the Bylaws Amendment (as defined below) and in favor of the election to the board of directors of the Company of director nominees selected by the Stockholder Group at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders.

  (b)

The Reporting Person, in his capacity as a stockholder of the Company, directed Jeffery Bray, as the representative of the Stockholder Group, to send a letter to the board of directors of the Company. A copy of Mr. Bray’s letter to the board of directors of the Company is included herein as Exhibit 99.3 within Item 7. The letter requested that the board meet with the Stockholder Group to discuss their concerns and confirm in writing that the board of directors will permit the Stockholder Group to nominate a slate of directors for election at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders.

 

  (c)

The Reporting Person, in his capacity as Co-Chairman of the Company’s board of directors, called a Special Meeting of the Stockholders, as permitted under Section 2.2 of the Company’s bylaws, for the purpose of amending the provisions of Section 3.2, Advance Notice for Nomination of Directors, of the bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws Amendment”). A copy of the Notice of Calling of Special Meeting of the Stockholders of UpHealth, Inc. is included herein as Exhibit 99.4 within Item 7. The purpose of the proposed amendment to the bylaws of the Company is to modify the requirements for stockholders of the Company to make nominations of persons to be elected to the Company’s board of directors at annual or special meetings of the stockholders, or any postponement or adjournment of such meeting. The Reporting Person seeks to have this amendment to the bylaws effective prior to the holding of the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or any postponement or adjournment of such meeting. The Reporting Person has requested the Company’s board of directors to hold the Special Meeting of Stockholders on August 4, 2022 at 10:00 a.m. EDT by remote communications and set the record date for the meeting as June 13, 2022. During a Special Meeting of the Company’s board of directors on May 31, 2022, which was called for purposes of scheduling the Special Meeting of the Stockholders, the Company’s board of directors took the position that Mr. Kathuria, in his capacity as Co-Chairman, did not have the unilateral authority to call a Special Meeting of the Stockholders. As a result, the Company’s board of directors did not schedule the Special Meeting of the Stockholders, as requested by Mr. Kathuria

The Reporting Person or any of his affiliates may, subject to market conditions and other factors, purchase additional Common Stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, or sell or distribute in kind at any time all or a portion of the Common Stock now owned or hereafter acquired by him, except to the extent prohibited by the Voting Agreement.

The Reporting Person may, from time to time or at any time, take further action, alone or in concert with other stockholders of the Company or other third parties, based on concerns regarding the Company, may formulate a plan with respect to such matters, and may hold discussions with or make formal proposals to management or the board of directors of the Company or other third parties regarding such matters.
