Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 1, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), TDO Software, Inc., a California corporation (“TDO”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sonendo, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among TDO, Valsoft Corporation Inc., a Quebec corporation (“Valsoft”), and Aspire USA LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and affiliate of Valsoft (together with Valsoft, the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which TDO agreed to sell to the Purchasers specified assets relating to the Company’s Software Segment assets comprised of TDO Software, the Company’s end-to-end practice management software for the endodontic industry (the “Business”), and the Purchasers agreed to assume certain liabilities relating to such business (the “Transaction”). As consideration for the Transaction, the Purchasers agreed to pay TDO approximately $16.0 million, with $15.0 million paid upon the Effective Date and the balance due in approximately 12 months pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement. In connection with the Transaction, the Purchasers agreed to make offers of employment to certain employees of the Business on terms that are comparable to those currently in effect for such employees. The Agreement contains certain representations, warranties and covenants of each of TDO and the Purchasers. Each of TDO and the Purchasers has agreed to indemnify the other for certain losses arising out of breaches of representations and covenants and for certain losses arising out of retained liabilities or assumed liabilities relating to the Business, as applicable, subject to customary limitations.

In connection with the Transaction, on the Effective Date, the Company entered to Amendment No. 3 (the “Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Guaranty, dated as of August 23, 2021, by and among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors named therein, the lenders party thereto and Perceptive Credit Holdings III, LP, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”). The Amendment amended the Credit Agreement to include a one-time $15.0 million principal repayment and initiate monthly principal repayments beginning in March 2024 along with modifications to certain other terms including revenue covenants. The Amendment also released all liens granted under the Credit Agreement on the TDO Software assets.
