The information set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 1 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.
 
Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction
  
 
Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

As disclosed by Issuer in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed January 18, 2022 (the "Form 8-K"), Issuer and certain of its wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated January 14, 2021, with GeneDx, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OPKO Health, Inc. ("OPKO"), GeneDx Holding 2, Inc., and OPKO (the "GeneDx Merger Agreement"). Upon effectiveness of the mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the GeneDx Merger Agreement, GeneDx will become a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Issuer.

Concurrently with the execution of the GeneDx Merger Agreement, Issuer entered into certain related agreements with certain institutional investors, including certain of the Reporting Persons.

Issuer entered into a Subscription Agreement, dated as of January 14, 2022 (the "Subscription Agreement"), with ISMMS and other investors. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement, ISMMS agreed to purchase from Issuer in a private placement 6,250,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the "PIPE Shares") at a purchase price of $4.00 per share for the aggregate purchase price of $25 million as part of a $200 million private placement of Class A Common Stock. The closing of the private placement pursuant to the Subscription Agreement is contingent upon the satisfaction or waiver (if applicable) of certain conditions, as describe in the Subscription Agreement, including without limitation that the closing of the GeneDx merger shall be scheduled to occur substantially concurrently with the closing of the private placement. The Subscription Agreement is described in Item 6 hereof.

ISMMS also entered into a Stockholder Support Agreement dated as of January 14, 2022 (the "Support Agreement") with Issuer and OPKO Health, Inc, as described in Item 6 hereof.

In connection with the PIPE Investment (as described below), ISMMS entered into a lock-up agreement dated as of January 13, 2022 (the "Lock-Up Agreement") with Sema4 pursuant to which ISMMS shall not transfer, or make a public announcement of any intention to transfer, any shares of Class A Common Stock acquired in the private placement or subsequent to January 13, 2022, until one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter. The Lock-Up Agreement is described in Item 6 hereof.

The information in Item 3 of this Amendment No. 1 is incorporated by reference into this Item 4. The Reporting Persons expect to evaluate on an ongoing basis the Issuer's financial condition and prospects and their respective interests in, and intentions with respect to, the Issuer and their respective investments in the securities of Issuer, which review may be based on various factors, including Issuer's business and financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for Issuer's securities in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Accordingly, each Reporting Person reserves the right to change its intentions, as it deems appropriate. In particular, each Reporting Person may, subject to any restrictions on the Reporting Persons pursuant to the agreements entered into in connection with the GeneDx Merger Agreement, at any time and from time to time, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, increase its holdings in Issuer or dispose of all or a portion of the securities of Issuer that such Reporting Person now owns or may hereafter acquire, including sales pursuant to the exercise of the registration rights provided for in the Subscription Agreements (as defined below).

Except as described in this Amendment No. 1, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although, subject to the agreements described herein, the Reporting Persons, at any time and from time to time, may review, reconsider and change their position and/or change their purpose and/or develop such plans and may seek to influence management or the board of Issuer with respect to the business and affairs of Issuer and may from time to time consider pursuing or proposing such matters with advisors, Issuer or other persons.

Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer
  
 
(a)
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) and (b) Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 1 are incorporated herein by reference. Calculation of the percentage of shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned assumes that there were 242,578,824 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2021, as disclosed by Issuer in the Subscription Agreement with ISMMS. None of the shares of Class A Common Stock subscribed for pursuant to the Subscription Agreement are included in the beneficial ownership of the Reporting Persons on the cover pages of this Amendment No. 1 or in this Item 5. In addition, none of the Earn-Out Shares are included in the beneficial ownership of the Reporting Persons because none of the related thresholds have been satisfied.

The information set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 1 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.

MSHS disclaims beneficial ownership over all Shares including Earn-Out Shares and any PIPE Shares now beneficially owned or to be acquired pursuant to certain earn-out rights and/or the Subscription Agreement (as defined below) with and by ISMMS, other than for the purpose of determining obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the filing of this Amendment No. 1 shall not be deemed an admission that MSHS is the beneficial owner of such securities for any other purpose.

 
(b)
See above.

 
(c)
Except as described in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 1, which is incorporated herein by reference, during the past 60 days, none of the Reporting Persons conducted transactions in the securities of the Issuer.

(d)

(e)
Not applicable.

The information set forth in Items 2, 3, 4 and 5 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 6. ISMMS is a party to the following contracts, agreements and understanding with respect to securities of the Issuer:

Pursuant to, and on the terms and subject to the conditions of, the Subscription Agreements, Sema4 agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors, in private placements to close substantially concurrently with the merger closing, an aggregate of 50 million shares of Class A Common Stock at $4.00 per share, for an aggregate gross purchase price of $200 million, before fees and expenses (the "PIPE Investment"). The Subscription Agreements provide for certain customary registration rights for the PIPE Investors. The Subscription Agreements will terminate with no further force and effect upon the earliest to occur of: (a) such date and time as the GeneDx Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms; (b) upon the mutual written agreement of the parties to such Subscription Agreement; (c) if any of the conditions to closing of the PIPE Investment set forth in Section 2 of the Subscription Agreements are not satisfied (or waived, to the extent waivable) on or prior to the earlier of the closing date of the acquisition contemplated in the GeneDx Merger Agreement or on October 14, 2022, or become incapable of being satisfied on or prior to the earlier of the closing date or by Oct ober 14, 2022, and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements are not consummated at the closing of the PIPE Investment, and (d) October 14, 2022. Each Subscriber may, by written notice to Sema4, extend the date beyond October 14, 2022.

This summary description of the Subscription Agreements and the description in Item 4 hereof do not purport to be complete, and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Subscription Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to Issuer’s Form 8-K, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

This summary description of the Support Agreements and the description in Item 4 hereof do not purport to be complete, and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Stockholder Support Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 to Issuer’s Form 8-K, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.


Lockup Agreement

In connection with the PIPE Investment, ISMMS and certain other investors entered into lockup agreements (the "Lock-Up Agreements") with Sema4 pursuant to which such investors agreed not to transfer, or make a public announcement of any intention to transfer, any shares of Class A Common Stock acquired in the private placement or subsequent to January 13, 2022, until one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter.
