Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned hereby exchanges the below described Public Warrants of Organogenesis Holdings Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Offer to Exchange Letter dated July 22, 2019 (the “Offer Letter”) and this Amended and Restated Letter of Transmittal and Consent (the “Letter of Transmittal” and together with the Offer Letter, the “Offer”).

The Board of Directors of the Company has extended the Offer to all holders of the Company’s issued and outstanding warrants that were issued in connection with the Company’s initial public offering pursuant to a prospectus dated October 10, 2016 (the “IPO Prospectus”), exercisable for shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), at an exercise price of $5.75 per half Share (the “Public Warrants”) to permit holders of Public Warrants to tender any and all outstanding Public Warrants in exchange for Shares at an exchange ratio of 0.095 Shares for each Public Warrant tendered (approximately one Share for every 11 Public Warrants tendered), subject to adjustment, as described in the Offer Letter.

The Company is also soliciting consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from holders of the Public Warrants to amend the warrant agreement governing the terms of the Public Warrants in order to permit the Company to require that each Public Warrant that is outstanding upon the closing of the Offer be converted into 0.0855 Shares, which is a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer, thus eliminating all of the Public Warrants (as more fully described in the Offer Letter and Consent Solicitation, including Annex A thereto, the “Warrant Amendment”). Holders of Public Warrants who desire to tender their Public Warrants pursuant to the Offer are required to consent to the Warrant Amendment. The execution and delivery of this Letter of Transmittal and Consent will constitute a Holder’s consent to the Warrant Amendment and will also authorize and direct the Depository to execute and deliver a written consent to the Warrant Amendment on such Holder’s behalf with respect to all Public Warrants tendered by such Holder. A Holder of Public Warrants may not tender Public Warrants in the Offer without delivering its consent to the Warrant Amendment with respect to all Public Warrants by such Holder.

NO FRACTIONAL SHARES WILL BE ISSUED. PUBLIC WARRANTS MAY ONLY BE EXCHANGED FOR WHOLE SHARES. IN LIEU OF ISSUING FRACTIONAL SHARES TO WHICH ANY HOLDER OF PUBLIC WARRANTS WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE BEEN ENTITLED, THE COMPANY WILL ROUND THE NUMBER OF SHARES TO WHICH SUCH HOLDER IS ENTITLED, AFTER AGGREGATING ALL FRACTIONS, UP TO THE NEXT WHOLE NUMBER OF SHARES.

PUBLIC WARRANTS NOT EXCHANGED FOR SHARES WILL REMAIN SUBJECT TO THEIR ORIGINAL TERMS (OR AMENDED TERMS IF THE WARRANT AMENDMENT IS APPROVED) AND SHALL EXPIRE ON DECEMBER 10, 2023.

THE OFFER RELATES TO THE PUBLIC WARRANTS ISSUED PURSUANT TO THE IPO PROSPECTUS, WHICH TRADE THROUGH THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (“DTC”). ANY AND ALL OUTSTANDING PUBLIC WARRANTS ARE ELIGIBLE TO BE TENDERED PURSUANT TO THE OFFER.

IT IS THE COMPANY’S CURRENT INTENTION NOT TO CONDUCT ANOTHER OFFER TO EXCHANGE PUBLIC WARRANTS FOR SHARES. HOWEVER, THE COMPANY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DO SO IN THE FUTURE, AS WELL AS TO EXERCISE ITS ABILITY TO REDEEM THE PUBLIC WARRANTS IF AND WHEN IT IS PERMITTED TO DO SO PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THE PUBLIC WARRANTS.

Subject to and effective upon acceptance of the tender of the Public Warrants exchanged hereby in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of such extension or amendment), the undersigned hereby agrees to subscribe for the Shares, upon the exchange of one Public Warrant for 0.095 Shares, as indicated on the first page of this Letter of Transmittal.

The undersigned acknowledges that the undersigned has been advised to consult with its own advisors as to the consequences of participating or not participating in the Offer.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a) the undersigned has full power and authority to tender the Public Warrants tendered hereby and subscribe for all of the Shares of the Company which may be received upon exchange of the Public Warrants tendered hereby;

(b) the undersigned has good, marketable and unencumbered title to the Public Warrants tendered hereby, free and clear of all security interests, liens, restrictions, charges, encumbrances, conditional sales agreements or other obligations relating to their exchange, sale or transfer, and the Public Warrants tendered hereby are not subject to any adverse claim;

(c) on request, the undersigned will execute and deliver any additional documents the Company deems necessary to complete the exchange of the Public Warrants tendered hereby;

(d) the undersigned understands that tenders of Public Warrants tendered hereby pursuant to the Offer and in the instructions hereto will constitute the undersigned’s acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Offer; and

(e) the undersigned agrees to all of the terms of the Offer.

All authorities conferred or agreed to be conferred in this Letter of Transmittal shall survive the death or incapacity of the undersigned, and any obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, assigns, trustees in bankruptcy, and legal representatives of the undersigned. Except as stated in the Offer, this tender is irrevocable.

Delivery of this Letter of Transmittal and all other documents to an address other than as set forth above, does not constitute a valid delivery. Please read carefully the entire Letter of Transmittal, including the accompanying instructions, before checking any box below. This Letter of Transmittal is to be used only if (a) certificates are to be forwarded herewith (or such certificates will be delivered pursuant to a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery previously sent to the depositary) or (b) delivery of Public Warrants is to be made by book-entry transfer to the depositary’s account at DTC pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Offer Letter.

If you desire to exchange Public Warrants pursuant to the Offer and you cannot deliver your Public Warrant certificate(s) (or you are unable to comply with the procedures for book-entry transfer on a timely basis) and all other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal are delivered to the depositary prior to the Expiration Date, you may tender your Public Warrants according to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in the Offer Letter under “The Offer, Section 2. Procedure for Tendering Public Warrants—A. Proper Tender of Public Warrants—Guaranteed Delivery.” See Instruction 2.

Delivery of documents to DTC does not constitute delivery to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Depositary”).

“Expiration Date” means 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time, on August 16, 2019, unless and until the Company, in its sole discretion, extends the Offer, in which case the “Expiration Date” means the latest time and date at which the Offer, as extended, expires.

THE UNDERSIGNED UNDERSTANDS THAT ACCEPTANCE OF PUBLIC WARRANTS BY THE COMPANY FOR EXCHANGE WILL CONSTITUTE A BINDING AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNDERSIGNED AND THE COMPANY UPON THE TERMS AND SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER.

Conditions; Termination; Waivers; Extensions; Amendments,” subject only to withdrawal of elections to exchange on the terms set forth in the Offer Letter under “The Offer, Section 3.

INSTRUCTIONS

FORMING PART OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER

1. GUARANTEE OF SIGNATURE.

No signature guarantee is required if either:

(a) this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder of the Public Warrants exactly as the name of the registered holder appears on the certificate tendered with this Letter of Transmittal and such owner has not completed the box entitled “Special Delivery Instructions” or “Special Issuance Instructions”; or

(b) such Public Warrants are tendered for the account of a member firm of a registered national securities exchange, a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) or a commercial bank or trust company (not a savings bank or savings and loan association) having an office, branch or agency in the United States which is a participant in an approved Signature Guarantee Medallion Program (each such entity, an “Eligible Institution”); or

(c) the holders of such Public Warrants reside outside of the U.S. and are not otherwise tendering the Public Warrants in the U.S.

In all other cases, an Eligible Institution must guarantee all signatures on this Letter of Transmittal and Consent. See Instruction 5.

2. DELIVERY OF LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND CERTIFICATES; GUARANTEED DELIVERY PROCEDURES.

This Letter of Transmittal is to be used only if:

 

   

certificates for Public Warrants are delivered with it to the Depositary; or

 

   

the certificates will be delivered pursuant to a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery previously sent to the Depositary; or

 

   

Public Warrants are exchanged pursuant to the procedure for tender by book-entry transfer set forth in the Offer Letter under “The Offer, Section 2. Procedure for Tendering Public Warrants—A. Proper Tender of Public Warrants—Book-Entry Delivery.”

Unless Public Warrants are being tendered by book-entry transfer, as described below, (a) a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal or duly executed and manually signed facsimile copy of it, in accordance with the instructions of the Letter of Transmittal (including any required signature guarantees), (b) certificates for the Public Warrants being exchanged, and (c) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal should be mailed or delivered to the Depositary at the appropriate address set forth on the front page of this document and must be received by the Depositary prior to the expiration of the Offer. If certificates are forwarded to the Depositary in multiple deliveries, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal must accompany each such delivery.

Public Warrants may be validly tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer as described in the Offer Letter. In order for Public Warrants to be validly tendered by book-entry transfer, the Depositary must receive, prior to the Expiration Date, (a) confirmation of such delivery and (b) either a properly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal (or manually signed facsimile thereof) or an Agent’s Message if the tendering Public Warrant holder has not delivered a Letter of Transmittal, and (c) all documents required by the Letter of Transmittal. The term “Agent’s Message” means a message, transmitted by DTC to, and received by, the Depositary and forming a part of a Book-Entry Confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the participant in DTC exchanging the Public Warrants that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Letter of Transmittal and that the Company may enforce such

 

10


agreement against the participant. The term “Book-Entry Confirmation” means a timely confirmation of a book-entry transfer of Public Warrants into the Depositary’s account at DTC. If you are tendering by book-entry transfer, you must expressly acknowledge that you have received and agreed to be bound by the Letter of Transmittal and that the Letter of Transmittal may be enforced against you.

If your Public Warrant certificates are not immediately available, you cannot deliver your warrants and all other required documents to the Depositary or you cannot complete the procedure for delivery by book-entry transfer prior to the expiration date, you may tender your Public Warrants pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedure set forth in the Offer Letter. Pursuant to such procedure:

(i) such tender must be made by or through an Eligible Institution (as defined in Instruction 1);

(ii) a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery substantially in the form provided by the Company (with any required signature guarantees) must be received by the Depositary prior to the Expiration Date; and

(iii) the certificates for all physically delivered Public Warrants in proper form for transfer by delivery, or a confirmation of a book-entry transfer into the Depositary’s account at DTC of all Public Warrants delivered electronically, in each case together with a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (or manually signed facsimile thereof) with any required signature guarantees (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message), and any other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Depositary within two Nasdaq Stock Market trading days after the date the Depositary receives such Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, all as provided in the Offer Letter.

The method of delivery of all documents, including Public Warrant certificates, the Letter of Transmittal and any other required documents, is at the election and risk of the tendering Public Warrant holder, and the delivery will be deemed made only when actually received by the Depositary. If delivery is by mail, registered mail with return receipt requested, properly insured, is recommended. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to ensure timely delivery.

Except as specifically permitted by the Offer Letter, no alternative or contingent exchanges will be accepted.

3. CONSENTING IN THE OFFER AND CONSENT SOLICITATION. By tendering your Public Warrants in accordance with the procedures described in the Offer Letter and Consent Solicitation and the Letter of Transmittal, you also consent to and approve the Warrant Amendment, as set forth in the Offer Letter and Consent Solicitation, acknowledge receipt of the Offer Letter and Consent Solicitation and revoke any proxy heretofore given with respect to the Warrant Amendment. You irrevocably constitute and appoint the Depositary as your agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in your name, place and stead, with full knowledge that the Depositary is also acting as the agent of the Company in connection with the Offer and Consent Solicitation, as your true and lawful representative, attorney-in-fact and agent with respect to the tendered Public Warrants, with full power of substitution, such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an interest, subject only to the right of withdrawal described in the Offer Letter and Consent Solicitation, to (1) deliver the tendered Public Warrants to the Company together with all accompanying evidences of transfer and authenticity to the Company, upon receipt by the Depositary, as its agent, of the Shares to be issued in exchange for the Public Warrants, (2) present the tendered Public Warrants for transfer, and to transfer the tendered Public Warrants on the account books maintained by DTC to, or upon the order of, the Company, (3) present the tendered Public Warrants for transfer, and to transfer the tendered Public Warrants on the books of the Company, (4) immediately prior to the Company’s acceptance for exchange of the Public Warrants tendered, consent to and approve the Warrant Amendment on your behalf, (5) make, execute, sign, acknowledge, verify, swear to and deliver on your behalf any written consent of the holders of Public Warrants to approve the Warrant Amendment, (6) receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of ownership of the tendered Public Warrants, all in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Offer and

 

11


Consent Solicitation and (7) to do and perform each and every act and thing whether necessary or desirable to be done, as fully as you might or could do if personally present at a meeting of holders of Public Warrants or otherwise. Such appointment will be automatically revoked if the Company does not accept for exchange Public Warrants that a Holder has tendered.

4. INADEQUATE SPACE. If the space provided in the box captioned “Description of Public Warrants Surrendered” is inadequate, the certificate number(s) and/or the book-entry account number(s) and the number of Public Warrants should be listed on a separate signed schedule and attached to this Letter of Transmittal.

5. PUBLIC WARRANTS EXCHANGED. Public Warrant holders who choose to participate in the Offer may exchange some or all of such holder’s Public Warrants pursuant to the terms of the Offer, subject to proration and adjustment as described in the Offer Letter.

6. SIGNATURES ON LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.

(a) If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the Public Warrants tendered hereby, the signature(s) must correspond exactly with the name(s) as written on the face of the certificate(s) without any change whatsoever.

(b) If the Public Warrants are held of record by two or more persons or holders, all such persons or holders must sign this Letter of Transmittal.

(c) If any tendered Public Warrants are registered in different names on several certificates, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate Letters of Transmittal (or photocopies of it) as there are different registrations of certificates.

(d) When this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the Public Warrants listed and transmitted hereby, no endorsement(s) of certificate(s) representing such Public Warrants or separate instruments of transfer are required. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN INSTRUCTION 1, SIGNATURE(S) ON SUCH CERTIFICATE(S) MUST BE GUARANTEED BY AN ELIGIBLE INSTITUTION. If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder(s) of the certificate(s) listed, the certificate(s) must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer, in either case signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered holder(s) appears on the certificate(s), and the signature(s) on such certificate(s) or instruments of transfer must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 1.

(e) If this Letter of Transmittal or any certificate(s) or instruments of transfer are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing and must submit proper evidence satisfactory to the Company of the authority so to act. If the certificate has been issued in the fiduciary or representative capacity, no additional documentation will be required.

6. SPECIAL DELIVERY AND SPECIAL ISSUANCE INSTRUCTIONS. If certificates for Shares issued upon exchange of the Public Warrants are to be issued in the name of a person other than the signer of the Letter of Transmittal or if such certificates are to be sent to someone other than the person signing the Letter of Transmittal or to the signer at a different address, the boxes captioned “Special Issuance Instructions” and/or “Special Delivery Instructions” on this Letter of Transmittal must be completed as applicable and signatures must be guaranteed as described in Instruction 1.

7. IRREGULARITIES. All questions as to the number of Public Warrants to be accepted, the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of any tender of Public Warrants will be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, which determinations shall be final and binding on all parties, subject to the judgment of any court that might provide otherwise. The Company reserves the absolute right to reject any or all

 

12


tenders of Public Warrants it determines not to be in proper form or to reject those Public Warrants, the acceptance of which may, in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, be unlawful, subject to the judgment of any court that might provide otherwise. The Company also reserves the absolute right to waive any of the conditions of the Offer (subject to the potential requirement to disseminate additional information and extend the Offer, as described in the Offer Letter under “The Offer, Section 11. Conditions; Termination; Waivers; Extensions; Amendments”) and any defect or irregularity in the tender of any particular Public Warrant, and the Company’s interpretation of the terms of the Offer (including these instructions) will be final and binding on all parties, subject to the judgment of any court that might provide otherwise. No tender of Public Warrants will be deemed to be properly made until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders must be cured within such time as the Company shall determine. Neither the Company nor any other person is or will be obligated to give notice of any defects or irregularities in tenders, and none of them will incur any liability for failure to give any such notice.

8. SUBSTITUTE FORM W-9 AND FORM W-8.To avoid backup withholding, a tendering Public Warrant holder is required to provide the Depositary with a correct Taxpayer Identification Number (“TIN”) on Substitute Form W-9, which is provided herewith, and to certify, under penalties of perjury, that such number is correct and that such Public Warrant holder is not subject to backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax, and that such Public Warrant holder is a U.S. person (as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). If a tendering Public Warrant holder has been notified by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) that such Public Warrant holder is subject to backup withholding, such Public Warrant holder must cross out item (2) of the Certification box of the Substitute Form W-9, unless such Public Warrant holder has since been notified by the IRS that such Public Warrant holder is no longer subject to backup withholding. Failure to provide the information on the Substitute Form W-9 may subject the tendering Public Warrant holder to U.S. federal income tax withholding if any cash payments are made in lieu of fractional shares; however, no such cash payments will be made. If the tendering Public Warrant holder has not been issued a TIN and has applied for one or intends to apply for one in the near future, such Public Warrant holder should check the box in Part 3 of the Substitute Form W-9, and sign and date the Substitute Form W-9. If the box in Part 3 is checked and the Depositary is not provided with a TIN by the time of payment, the Depositary will withhold a portion of all payments to such Public Warrant holder until a TIN is provided to the Depositary.

Certain Public Warrant holders (including, among others, all corporations and certain foreign individuals and entities) may not be subject to backup withholding. Foreign Public Warrant holders should submit an appropriate and properly completed IRS Form W-8, a copy of which may be obtained from the Depositary, in order to avoid backup withholding. Such Public Warrant holders should consult a tax advisor to determine which Form W-8 is appropriate. See the enclosed “Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9” for more instructions.

IMPORTANT: THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (OR A PHOTOCOPY THEREOF) TOGETHER WITH PUBLIC WARRANT CERTIFICATES AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE DEPOSITARY ON OR PRIOR TO 12:00 MIDNIGHT, EASTERN TIME, ON AUGUST 16, 2019.

IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION

Under U.S. federal income tax law, a Public Warrant holder who is a U.S. person (as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) surrendering Public Warrants must, unless an exemption applies, provide the Depositary (as payer) with the Public Warrant holder’s correct TIN on IRS Form W-9 or on the Substitute Form W-9 included in this Letter of Transmittal. If the Public Warrant holder is an individual, the Public Warrant holder’s TIN is such Public Warrant holder’s Social Security number. If the correct TIN is not provided, the Public Warrant holder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS.

Certain Public Warrant holders (including, among others, corporations and certain foreign individuals and entities) may not be subject to backup withholding and reporting requirements. In order for an exempt foreign Public Warrant holder to avoid backup withholding, such person should complete, sign and submit an appropriate Form W-8 signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to his or her foreign status. A Form W-8 can be obtained from the Depositary. Such Public Warrant holders should consult a tax advisor to determine which Form W-8 is appropriate. Exempt Public Warrant holders, other than foreign Public Warrant holders, should furnish their TIN, check the box in Part 4 of the Substitute Form W-9 and sign, date and return the Substitute Form W-9 to the Depositary in order to avoid erroneous backup withholding. See the enclosed “Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9” for additional instructions.

If backup withholding applies, the Depositary is required to withhold and pay over to the IRS a portion of any payment made to a Public Warrant holder. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained from the IRS.

Purpose of Substitute Form W-9

To prevent backup withholding on payments that are made to a Public Warrant holder with respect to Shares issued pursuant to the Offer, the Public Warrant holder is required to notify the Depositary of the Public Warrant holder’s correct TIN by completing the Substitute Form W-9 included in this Letter of Transmittal certifying (1) that the TIN provided on the Substitute Form W-9 is correct (or that such Public Warrant holder is awaiting a TIN), (2) that the Public Warrant holder is not subject to backup withholding because (i) the Public Warrant holder is exempt from

backup withholding, (ii) the Public Warrant holder has not been notified by the IRS that the Public Warrant holder is subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest and dividends or (iii) the IRS has notified the Public Warrant holder that the Public Warrant holder is no longer subject to backup withholding and (3) the Public Warrant holder is a U.S. person (as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes).

What Number to Give the Depositary

The tendering Public Warrant holder is required to give the Depositary the TIN, generally the Social Security number or Employer Identification Number, of the record holder of the Public Warrants tendered hereby. If the Shares are in more than one name or are not in the name of the actual owner, consult the enclosed “Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9” for additional guidance on which number to report. If the tendering Public Warrant holder has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a number or intends to apply for a number in the near future, such Public Warrant holder should check the box in Part 3 of the Substitute Form W-9, sign and date the Substitute Form W-9 and sign and date the Certificate of Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number, which appears in a separate box below the Substitute Form W-9. If the box in Part 3 of the Substitute Form W-9 is checked and the Depositary is not provided with a TIN by the time of payment, the Depositary will withhold a portion of all payments of the purchase price until a TIN is provided to the Depositary. If the Depositary is provided with an incorrect TIN in connection with such payments, the Public Warrant holder may be subject to a $50.00 penalty imposed by the IRS.
