On May 20, 2022, Waldencast Acquisition Corp.

Pursuant to the Working Capital Loan, the Sponsor has agreed to loan to Waldencast up to $600,000 to be used for working capital purposes. The loans will not bear any interest, and will be repayable by Waldencast to the Sponsor upon the earlier of (i) the date by which Waldencast has to complete a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”) pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (as may be amended from time to time) and (ii) the effective date of a Business Combination (such earlier date of (i) and (ii), the “Maturity Date”).

 

The foregoing description of the Working Capital Loan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Working Capital Loan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The information disclosed under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03 to the extent required herein. The Maturity Date of the Working Capital Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined therein). Any outstanding principal under the Working Capital Loan may be prepaid at any time by Waldencast, at its election and without penalty.

This communication contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect to the proposed transactions among Obagi, Milk and Waldencast, including statements regarding the intended benefits of the transactions, the anticipated timing of the transactions and the growth strategies of Waldencast, Obagi and Milk. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “estimates,” “projects,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “seeks,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “future,” “propose,” “target,” “goal,” “objective,” “outlook” and variations of these words or similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

Important factors, among others, that may affect actual results or outcomes include, but are not limited to: (i) the risk that the transactions may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Waldencast’s securities, (ii) the risk that Waldencast shareholder approval of the proposed transactions is not obtained, (iii) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transactions, which may be affected by, among other things, the amount of funds available in Waldencast’s trust account following any redemptions by Waldencast’s shareholders, (iv) the failure to receive certain governmental and regulatory approvals, (v) the inability to complete the PIPE Investment or the Forward Purchase Agreements investments (as such terms are defined in the registration statement on Form F-4 discussed above), (vi) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Obagi Merger Agreement or the Milk Equity Purchase Agreement (as such terms are defined in the registration statement on Form F-4 discussed above), (vii) changes in general economic conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, (viii) the outcome of litigation related to or arising out of the proposed transactions, or any adverse developments therein or delays or costs resulting therefrom, (ix) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transactions on Obagi’s or Milk’s business relationships, operating results, and businesses generally, (x) the ability to continue to meet Nasdaq’s listing standards following the consummation of the proposed transactions, (xi) costs related to the proposed transactions, (xii) that the price of Waldencast’s securities may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including Waldencast’s, Obagi’s or Milk’s inability to implement their business plans or meet or exceed their financial projections and changes in the combined capital structure, (xiii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the proposed transactions, and identify and realize additional opportunities and (xiv) the ability of Obagi and Milk to implement their strategic initiatives and continue to innovate their existing products and anticipate and respond to market trends and changes in consumer preferences. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of Waldencast’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-253370), the registration statement on Form F-4 discussed above, the proxy statement/prospectus and other documents filed or that may be filed by Waldencast from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and Obagi, Milk and Waldencast assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Neither Waldencast, Obagi, or Milk gives any assurance that Waldencast, Obagi or Milk, or the combined company, will achieve their expectations.
