Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The terms “the Company,” “SC Health,” “we,” “our” and similar or derivative terms in this Current Report on Form 8-K refer to SC Health Corporation, except where the context otherwise requires.

The disclosure contained in Item 2.03 is incorporated by reference in this Item 1.01.

Item 1.02.
Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, on March 19, 2021, SC Health entered into a Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Merger (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Rockley Photonics Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales with company number 08683015 ( “Rockley”), Rockley Photonics Holdings Limited, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“HoldCo”), and Rockley Mergersub Limited, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo, pursuant to which SC Health will become a subsidiary of HoldCo, with the shareholders of Rockley becoming shareholders of HoldCo (the “Business Combination”).

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, on May 20, 2021, SC Health terminated the Forward Purchase Agreement, by and among SC Health and SC Health Holdings Limited (the “Sponsor”), dated as of July 11, 2019, without liability or further obligation of SC Health or the Sponsor.

Item 2.03
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On May 25, 2021, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $2,000,000 to the Sponsor. The Note does not bear interest and is repayable in full upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. If the Company does not complete an initial business combination, the Note shall not be repaid and all amounts owed under it will be forgiven. The Note is subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which automatically trigger the unpaid principal balance of the Note and all other sums payable with regard to the Note becoming immediately due and payable.
 
The Note was issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
Item 4.02(a).
Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
 
Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
On April 12, 2021, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission released a statement on accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies (the “Staff Statement”). The Staff Statement highlighted certain financial reporting considerations for special purpose acquisition corporations (“SPACs”) relating to the accounting for warrants. While the specific terms of warrants issued by SPACs can vary, there are certain features of warrants issued in SPAC transactions that are common across many entities. The Staff Statement highlighted that warrants containing these features, which relate to whether the warrants can be indexed to the price of an entity’s shares or settled with assets other than common shares, should be classified as a liability measured at fair value, with changes in fair value each period reported as non-cash changes to earnings. Such period-to-period changes could be significant. Prior to the issuance of this guidance, SPACs generally carried their outstanding private placement warrants and public warrants containing these provisions as equity on their balance sheets without quarterly adjustments.


In light of the Staff Statement, we undertook a process to re-evaluate the equity classification of (i) our outstanding warrants issued in connection with our initial public offering on July 16, 2019, including the 5,000,000 private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor and the 8,625,000 warrants issued as part of the units sold in our initial public offering, each with an exercise price of $11.50 (the “IPO Warrants”), (ii) the 450,000 private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor in connection with the underwriters’ election on August 2, 2019 to fully exercise their over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Warrants”), (iii) the 1,250,000 warrants to be issued pursuant to the terms of our forward purchase agreements entered into on July 11, 2019 with the Sponsor at an exercise price of $11.50 share (the “Forward Purchase Units”) and (iv) the 2,000,000 private placement warrants with an exercise price of $11.50 that may be issued upon conversion of $2,000,000 of working capital loans (the “Working Capital Loan Warrants” and, together with the IPO Warrants, Over-Allotment Warrants and Forward Purchase Units, the “Warrants”). Management and the Audit Committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Audit Committee”) considered the Forward Purchase Units a firm commitment at the time of the Company’s initial public offering and that the working capital loans could be issued at any time upon demand by our Sponsor or one of its affiliates. As a result, management and the Audit Committee determined that the Warrants should have been classified as a liability. Based on Accounting Standards Codification 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, warrant instruments that do not meet the criteria to be considered indexed to an entity’s own stock shall be initially classified as derivative liabilities at their estimated fair values, regardless of the likelihood that such instruments will ever be settled in cash. In periods subsequent to issuance, changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative instruments should be reported in the statement of operations.
 
As a result, the Company, together with its advisors, undertook a process to value the liability of its Warrants. Based on this valuation, Company management, together with the Audit Committee, determined, on May 25, 2021, that the Company’s (i) financial statements and other financial data as of December 31, 2018, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020 and for the periods from December 10, 2018 (date of inception) through December 31, 2018, January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020, (ii) condensed financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports for the periods ended September 30, 2019, March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 (collectively, the “Non-Reliance Periods”) contained an error that was quantitatively material and, as a result, should no longer be relied upon.
 
As a result, investors, analysts and other persons should not rely upon the Company’s previously released financial statements and other financial data for the Non-Reliance Periods. Similarly, the related press releases, Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the financial statements as of December 31, 2018, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020 and for the periods from December 10, 2018 through December 31, 2018, January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, including the condensed financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports for the periods ended September 30, 2019, March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, and the shareholder communications, investor presentations or other communications describing relevant portions of our financial statements for the periods that need to be restated should no longer be relied upon. The Company will file a revised Annual Report on Form 10-K/A that includes restated financial statements for the Non-Reliance Periods and that corrects the errors and provides additional explanation of the changes.
 
The Company’s management has concluded that in light of the classification error described above, a material weakness exists in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
 
The Audit Committee and management have discussed the matters disclosed in this Item 4.02(a) with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.


Additional Information
 
In connection with the Business Combination, HoldCo has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”), which included a preliminary prospectus and preliminary proxy statement. HoldCo will mail a definitive proxy statement/final prospectus and other relevant documents to SC Health shareholders. This communication is not a substitute for the Registration Statement, the definitive proxy statement/final prospectus or any other document that HoldCo will send to SC Health shareholders in connection with the Business Combination. Investors and security holders of SC Health are advised to read the proxy statement/prospectus in connection with HoldCo’s solicitation of proxies for its extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to be held to approve the Business Combination (and related matters) because the proxy statement/prospectus contains important information about the Business Combination and the parties to the Business Combination. The definitive proxy statement/final prospectus will be mailed to shareholders of SC Health as of a record date to be established for voting on the Business Combination. Shareholders may also obtain copies of the proxy statement/prospectus, without charge, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to: Rockley Photonics Holdings Limited., 3rd Floor 1 Ashley Road, Altrincham, Cheshire, United Kingdom, WA14 2DT.
 
Participants in the Solicitation
