Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Exit of Three Leased Residential Care Communities

The Company continues to take certain actions related to shifting its business strategy from focusing on operating residential care facilities to providing technology and innovative care solutions that address the global aging crises. In connection with the previously announced proposed merger with Viveon Health Acquisition Corp. ("Viveon"), Clearday entered into agreements to terminate the leases ("Leases") for three of our four residential care facilities, which account for all of Clearday's leased residential care facilities. Our intention to terminate the Leases at these facilities (the "Facilities") located in Westover, Texas, New Braunfels, Texas and Little Rock, Arkansas, was previously disclosed in a report filed on Form 8-K on March 23, 2023. The agreements provide for the third party negotiated exit by the Company of our legacy memory care businesses that had large operating expenses, including lease payments, and incurred significant cash flow losses during 2022 that required us to incur indebtedness. Our continued implementation of our business strategy was one of the factors that enabled Clearday to execute the merger agreement on April 5, 2023 with Viveon led by principals experienced in healthcare and med-tech innovation, for a business combination that values the Company at approximately $300 million. A press release regarding the merger agreement was previously furnished on a Report on Form 8-K filed on April 6, 2023. There can be no assurance that the proposed merger transaction will be consummated on the terms or timeframe currently contemplated, or at all. After the consummation of the lease termination, we will continue to own and operate our residential memory care facility located at Naples, Florida and our Adult Daycare center located at San Antonio, Texas.

Terminating the Leases will remove approximately $27,520,000 of liabilities related to the lease liabilities, as of December 31, 2022, and approximately $22,991,000 of operating lease right-of use assets, resulting in a one-time increase of other income of approximately $4,520,00, prior to the elimination of our net leasehold improvements and personal property in these facilities that is expected to be less than $230,000, as of December 31, 2022. Additionally, the termination of the Leases and our legacy memory care businesses at these Facilities should significantly reduce the operating cash flow losses that we have incurred at these Facilities enabling us to focus on our innovative care products and service businesses including our digital care platform that includes our proprietary Clearday at Home and other digital offerings; our proprietary BEST test that is used to develop personalized care pathways; artificial intelligence (AI) enabled companion robotic services that include proprietary applications that enhance the user experience through proprietary digital engagement programs as well as movement analytics.

These agreements to terminate the Leases and our termination of our operations at these facilities are described below.

Clearday entered into agreements with the lessor or landlord of the Facilities ("Lessor") to terminate the Leases for the Facilities on the date (the "Termination Date") that a new operator that was selected and approved by the Lessor ("New Operator") obtains all required government licenses, authorizations, and approvals to operate the memory care residential facilities in Texas and Arkansas.

The Lease Transition Agreement with the Lessor dated March 31, 2023 provides, among other matters, that the aggregate liability of the Clearday subsidiaries that are tenants under the Leases are reduced to amount (the "Repayment Amount") that is equal to the sum of: (1) past due rent payments under the Leases of $1,284,770 ("Past Due Lease Amounts"), (2) a fixed amount arising from the termination of the Leases of $1,710,777 ("Rent Differential Amount"), (3) the amount of additional advances ("Critical Expenses Advances") by Landlord to pay critical expenses plus the premium for tail insurance policy in favor of the Landlord (the obligation for such premiums are limited $275,000) (4) plus an additional amount that is equal to the greater of $25,000 or 5% of such Critical Expenses Advances. The Repayment Amount is due and payable over a period maturing on July 31, 2025, as follows:

(1) on closing date of the previously announced proposed merger with Viveon Health Acquisition Corp., a payment equal to 10% of the new money that is raised in connection with such merger (subject to a minimum payment of $300,000 and a maximum payment of $500,000); provided that if such merger does not close by July 31, 2023, then a payment of $300,000 will be paid on July 31, 2023 or such other date agreed by Landlord and Clearday;

(2) $400,000 payable quarterly commencing on December 31, 2023, and

(3) beginning with the calendar quarter ending December 31, 2023 10% of the Excess Cash Flow, generally based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of Clearday.

The current guarantors of the Leases (a subsidiary of Clearday, Inc. and two individuals) continued to guaranty the obligations, as modified by the Lease Transition Agreement, and provided a security interests on the collateral specified therein.

In connection with the Lease Termination Agreement, the tenants under the Leases and the Clearday, Inc. subsidiaries that operated the Facilities signed a promissory note for the Repayment Amount and the Past Due Lease Amounts and Clearday, Inc. agreed to be an additional guarantor of the obligations of the Leases, as modified and limited by the Lease Transition Agreement, which is less than approximately $4,000,000 under the terms of a Guaranty (the "Guaranty"). Clearday also agreed to cooperate with Landlord to facility the termination of the Leases the sale of the furniture and fixtures at the Facilities to the New Operator so that New Operator may enter into a lease or purchase of the Facilities and operate the memory care businesses in the Facilities or other businesses at the Facilities that they choose to conduct.

The Lease Termination Agreement, the Guaranty and the Promissory Note also include customary representations, warranties, conditions and covenants including indemnification and remedies upon an event of default. The foregoing descriptions of the Lease Transition Agreement, the Promissory Note and the Guaranty are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of each such document, which is filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 to this Report and are incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the proposed termination of the Leases, the subsidiaries that operate the Facilities (the "Current Operators") and subsidiaries of the New Operator ("New Facilities Operators") entered into the Operations Transfer Agreement dated as of April 1, 2023 (the "OTA"). The OTA provides that the New Facilities Operators will purchase the personal property and other assets of the Current Operators used at the Facilities to enable the New Facilities Operators to conduct their business at the Facilities under new leases or other arrangements with the Landlord. Such purchase and sale will close on the date that the New Facilities Operators receive the licenses, authorizations and approvals from the applicable Texas and Arkansas governmental agencies to conduct a licensed residential memory care business at the Facilities and they enter into new leases with the Landlord (the "Commencement Date"). The New Facilities Operators will enter into new agreements with the residents at the Facilities, effective the Commencement Date, which agreements, according to statements by the New Facilities Operators, will be at the same price as the rates charged by Current Operators. The Current Operators have provided a notice to each of the residents at the Facilities that their current agreement will terminate, effective the Commencement Date.

In connection with the OTA, the Current Operators and the New Facilities Operators entered into Interim Management and Security Agreements or an Interim Consulting and Security Agreement, as applicable, dated as of April 1, 2023 (the "Interim Agreements"). The Interim Agreements provide that the New Facilities Operators will assist with operating the Facilities as an independent contractor, pending their receipt of government authorizations and approvals necessary to operate memory care residential care businesses at the Facilities. The New Facilities Operators are not affiliated with the Company or its officers or directors.

The OTA and Interim Agreements provide for the asset purchase and sale of the memory care businesses at the Facilities, and the transfer of certain agreements and the assumption of certain specified liabilities. The Current Operators, each of which is a subsidiary of Clearday, Inc., remain obligated for liabilities that are not assumed by the New Operators. Under the Interim Agreements, the New Facilities Operators is an independent contractor that has employed, or offered employment to, all of the employees of the Current Operators at the Facilities and will fund and be responsible for any operating cash losses for the Facilities.

The OTA and the Interim Agreements also include customary representations, warranties, conditions and covenants including indemnification and remedies upon an event of default. The foregoing descriptions of the OTA and the Interim Agreements are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of each such document, which is filed as Exhibits 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7 to this Report and are incorporated herein by reference.
