Item 8.01 Other Events

As previously disclosed, on June 28, 2022, Virgin Orbit Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with YA II PN, Ltd. (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company sold and issued to Investor a convertible debenture (the “Convertible Debenture”) on June 29, 2022, in the principal amount of $50.0 million, which is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), subject to certain conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

The Convertible Debenture provides a conversion right, in which any portion of the principal amount of the Convertible Debenture, together with any accrued but unpaid interest, may be converted into the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $4.64 or (ii) 95% of the average of the two lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock during the three (3) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion (but not lower than a certain floor price, initially set at $2.52 (the “Floor Price”), that is subject to further adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Convertible Debenture).

On December 20, 2022, (the “Reset Notice Date”), the Company issued a notice (the “Floor Reset Notice”) to Investor pursuant to which the Floor Price was reset to $1.51, effective as of the Reset Notice Date. The Floor Reset Notice does not otherwise change any terms of the Convertible Debenture. As a result of the adjusted Floor Price, a maximum of 30,887,417 shares of Common Stock may be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Debenture, including shares issued on or prior to the Reset Notice Date, subject to adjustment provisions included in the Convertible Debenture.
