VSee Health (NASDAQ: VSEE) seeks approval for up to 1-for-250 reverse split
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
VSee Health, Inc. is calling a virtual annual stockholders meeting on August 25, 2026 to elect two Class II directors, ratify auditor WWC, P.C. for the year ending December 31, 2026, approve a large reverse stock split authorization, and permit adjournment if votes are insufficient.
The reverse stock split proposal would allow the board, any time up to the second anniversary of the July 6, 2026 record date, to implement one or more reverse splits of the common stock between 1‑for‑2 and up to 1‑for‑250 in the aggregate, without changing the 100,000,000 authorized shares. The company states this is intended to help meet Nasdaq Capital Market listing requirements, broaden institutional interest, and potentially reduce Delaware franchise tax, while acknowledging possible reduced liquidity and that substantial dilution is expected from existing convertible securities and future financings.
As of July 6, 2026 there were 55,679,813 common shares outstanding and 121.6980 preferred shares, together entitled to 55,691,982.8 votes. Armistice Capital, LLC holds 6,180,020 common-equivalent shares (9.99% under a beneficial ownership limitation). CEO Imoigele Aisiku beneficially owns 5,380,040 shares (9.66%.). The proxy also discloses that cybersecurity controls are still being developed and that audit fees totaled $250,000 for 2025 and $1,870,422 for 2024. The board unanimously recommends voting “FOR” all proposals.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- Authorization for one or more reverse stock splits up to an aggregate 1‑for‑250 while keeping 100,000,000 shares authorized enables substantial future dilution alongside existing convertible securities.
Insights
Large reverse split authority plus existing convertibles point to future dilution risk.
VSee Health is seeking stockholder approval to let the board execute one or more reverse stock splits between 1‑for‑2 and up to 1‑for‑250 in total during a two‑year window. Authorized shares remain 100,000,000, so the transaction mainly shrinks outstanding shares while expanding the pool available for future issuance.
The company links this flexibility to maintaining Nasdaq Capital Market listing, attracting institutional investors, and potentially lowering Delaware franchise tax. It also discloses 32,610,414 shares reserved for issuance as of July 6, 2026 and explains that conversions of preferred stock and other instruments, plus future capital raises, will significantly dilute existing holders, particularly after any reverse split amplifies the impact per share.
Cybersecurity oversight is described as still in a developmental stage, with no formal framework or dedicated team in place. While no major incidents are reported, the discussion highlights operational and reputational risks. Audit fees of $250,000 in 2025 versus $1,870,422 in 2024 show materially lower recent external accounting spend, which may reflect post‑combination normalization.

Recommendation of our Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors believes that each of the Director Proposal, Auditor Proposal, the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, and the Adjournment Proposal is in the best interests of our Company and our stockholders and recommends that our stockholders vote “FOR” each of the nominees for the Director Proposal and “FOR” each of the other proposals to be presented at the Annual meeting.
Record Date; Who is Entitled to Vote
Our stockholders will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the Annual Meeting if they owned shares of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”) at the close of business on the Record Date. As of the Record Date, there were 55,679,813 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which shares are entitled to an aggregate of 55,679,813 votes at the Annual Meeting. Holders of the Preferred Stock are permitted to vote with the same voting rights as holders of Common Stock in any actions to be taken by the stockholders of the Company. Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to cast that number of votes per share as is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which it is then convertible (subject to the ownership limitations specified). As of the Record Date, there were 121.6980 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding, which shares are entitled to an aggregate of 12,169.8 votes at the Annual Meeting. Under Delaware law, stockholders will not have appraisal or similar rights in connection with any proposal set forth in this Proxy Statement. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. Our redeemable public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) will not have the right to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Attending the Annual Meeting
We will be hosting the Annual Meeting live via audio webcast. Any stockholder can attend the Annual Meeting live online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VSEE2026. If you were a stockholder as of the Record Date with a 16-digit control number, or a beneficial owner who has been provided by your broker with a 16-digit control number, or you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting, you can vote at the Annual Meeting. A summary of the information you need to attend the Annual Meeting online is provided below:
| ● | Instructions on how to attend and participate via the Internet, including how to demonstrate proof of stock ownership, are posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VSEE2026. | |
| ● | Assistance with questions regarding how to attend and participate via the Internet will be provided at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VSEE2026 on the day of the Annual Meeting. | |
| ● | Webcast will start on August 25, 2026, at 10:00 A.M. Eastern Time. | |
| ● | You will need your 16-digit control number to vote at the Annual Meeting. | |
| ● | Stockholders may submit questions while attending the Annual Meeting via the Internet. | |
| ● | Webcast replay of the Annual Meeting will be available until August 25, 2027. |
To attend and participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. If your shares are held in “street name,” you should contact your bank or broker to obtain your 16-digit control number or otherwise vote through the bank or broker. If you lose your 16-digit control number, you may join the Annual Meeting as a “Guest” but you will not be able to vote, ask questions or access the list of stockholders as of the Record Date.
Quorum
A quorum of our stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The presence, in person (which includes presence virtually at the Annual Meeting) or by proxy of holders of one-third (33.33%) of the voting power of our outstanding shares of voting stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum, the chairperson of the Annual Meeting has the power to adjourn the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, shares of outstanding voting stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting representing 18,563,995 votes would be required to achieve a quorum.
Failure to Vote and Abstentions
With respect to each of the proposals in this Proxy Statement, you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN.”
Abstentions and broker non-votes will each be counted as present for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal No. 1 — the Director Proposal, Proposal No. 2 — the Auditor Proposal, Proposal No. 3 — the Reverse Stock Split Proposal and Proposal No. 4 — Adjournment Proposal.
A broker non-vote occurs when a broker submits a proxy card with respect to shares of Common Stock held in a fiduciary capacity (typically referred to as being held in “street name”) but declines to vote on a particular matter because the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner. Even if you do not provide voting instructions, under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, banks, brokers or other nominees can still vote your shares with respect to matters that are “routine,” but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. If a broker, bank, or other agent indicates on a proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote certain shares on a non-routine proposal, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes. We believe that all proposals in this proxy statement, other than Proposal No. 2 — the Auditor Proposal, Proposal No. 3 — the Reverse Stock Split Proposal and Proposal No. 4 — the Adjournment Proposal, are non-routine proposals; therefore, your broker, bank or other agent will only be entitled to vote on Proposal No. 2 — the Auditor Proposal, Proposal No. 3 — the Reverse Stock Split Proposal and Proposal No. 4 — the Adjournment Proposal at the Annual Meeting without your instructions.
Stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.
Vote Required for Approval
The following votes are required for each Proposal at the Annual Meeting:
| ● | The Director Proposal: The nominees who receive a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present virtually or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be elected. |
| ● | The Auditor Proposal: The vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present virtually or by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting is required. |
| ● | The Reverse Stock Split Proposal: The vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present virtually or by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting is required. |
| ● | The Adjournment Proposal: The vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present virtually or by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting is required. |
With respect to the Director Proposal, the Company’s articles of incorporation and by-laws provide that, in an “uncontested election,” which is an election in which the number of nominees for director is less than or equal to the number of directors to be elected, a nominee for director shall be elected by a majority of the votes cast by the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. This means that the votes cast “for” a director nominee must exceed the votes cast “against” such nominee. To be elected in a “contested election,” which is an election in which the number of nominees for director is greater than the number of directors to be elected, a nominee for director must receive a plurality of the votes cast by the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon.

Holding Shares as a Stockholder of Record and as a Beneficial Owner
Record Owners
If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust, you are the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the Proxy Statement and the form of proxy have been sent directly to you.
Beneficial Owners
Many stockholders hold their shares through a broker, trustee, or other nominee, rather than directly in their own name. If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name.” The Proxy Statement and the form of voting instruction card have been forwarded to you by your broker, trustee, or other nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record.
Voting Your Shares
Each share of Common Stock that you own in your name entitles you to one vote. Each share of Preferred Stock you own entitles you to cast that number of votes per share as is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock is then convertible (subject to the ownership limitations specified). Your proxy card shows the number of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock that you own. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. If you are a record holder or a beneficial owner who has been provided with a 16-digit control number by your broker, there are several ways to vote your shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock.
| ● | You Can Vote by Signing and Returning the Enclosed Proxy Card. As a record owner, if you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted as recommended by the Board of Directors: “FOR” the each of the nominees for the Director Proposal, “FOR” the Auditor Proposal, , FOR” the Reverse Stock Split and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal. Votes received after a matter has been voted upon at the Annual Meeting will not be counted. Unsigned proxy cards will not be voted. |
| ● | You Can Vote Over the Internet, including by Attending the Annual Meeting and Voting in Person (Which Includes Presence Virtually at the Annual Meeting). If you have Internet access, you may authorize the voting of your shares by accessing www.proxyvote.com and following the instructions set forth in the proxy materials. You must specify how you want your shares voted or your vote will not be completed and you will receive an error message. Your shares will be voted according to your instructions. Voting by the Internet is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week until 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on August 24, 2026. We will be hosting the Annual Meeting via live webcast and you can also vote during the Annual Meeting. If you attend the Annual Meeting, you may submit your vote at the Annual Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VSEE2026 and having available the control number included on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials, in which case any votes that you previously submitted will be superseded by the vote that you cast at the Annual Meeting. Access to the webcast will begin at 9:45 A.M. Eastern Time on August 25, 2026, and you should allow ample time for check-in procedures. |
| ● | You Can Vote By Telephone. If you are a registered stockholder, you may call toll-free 1-800-690-6903 to vote by telephone. If you are a beneficial owner who has been provided with a control number on the voting instruction form that accompanied your proxy materials, you may call toll-free 1-800-454-8683 to vote by telephone. Your shares will be voted according to your instructions. Voting by telephone is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week until 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on August 24, 2026. |
Revoking Your Proxy
If you are a stockholder and you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by doing any one of the following:
| ● | you may send another proxy card with a later date; |
| ● | you may notify Jerry Leonard, our Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, in writing before the Annual Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or |
| ● | you may attend the Annual Meeting, revoke your proxy, and vote in person (which would include presence at the virtual Annual Meeting), as indicated above. |

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS
The following table sets forth information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of Common Stock as of July 6, 2026 (the “Beneficial Ownership Date”) by:
| ● | each person who is the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; |
| ● | each of the Company’s named executive officers and directors; and |
| ● | all of the Company’s executive officers and directors as a group. |
Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security. Under those rules, beneficial ownership includes securities that the individual or entity has the right to acquire, such as through the exercise of warrants or stock options or the vesting of restricted stock units, within 60 days of the Beneficial Ownership Date. Shares subject to warrants or options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the Beneficial Ownership Date or subject to restricted stock units that vest within 60 days of the Beneficial Ownership Date are considered outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding such warrants, options or restricted stock units for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.
Except as described in the footnotes below and subject to applicable community property laws and similar laws, the Company believes that each person listed above has sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares.
The beneficial ownership of our securities is based on 55,679,813 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Beneficial Ownership Date.

Director or Officer Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
Our directors and executive officers were not involved in any legal proceedings as described in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K in the past ten years.
Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines provide our board of directors with flexibility to select the appropriate leadership structure at a particular time based on what our Board determines to be in the best interests of the Company. The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that our Board has no established policy with respect to combining or separating the offices of chairman of the Board and principal executive officer. Currently, Dr. Aisiku, our Chief Executive Officer, serves as Chairman of our Board. Our Board determined that, at the present time, having our Chief Executive Officer also serving as the Chairman of our Board provides us with optimally effective leadership and is in our best interests and those of our stockholders. Our Board believes that Dr. Aisiku’s years of management experience in our industry as well as his extensive understanding of our business, operations and strategy make him well qualified to serve as Chairman of our board of directors.
Our Board has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing the management of our risks. Our Board is responsible for general oversight of risks and regular review of information regarding our risks, including credit risks, liquidity risks, cybersecurity risks and operational risks. Our compensation committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements. Our audit committee is responsible for overseeing the management of our risks relating to accounting matters and financial reporting. Our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for overseeing the management of our risks associated with the independence of our board of directors and potential conflicts of interest. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, our entire Board is regularly informed through discussions from committee members about such risks. Our Board believes its administration of its risk oversight function has not affected our Board’s leadership structure.
Board Oversight of Cybersecurity
As a smaller reporting company, we currently do not have formalized cybersecurity measures, a dedicated cybersecurity team or specific protocols in place to manage cybersecurity risks. Our approach to cybersecurity is in the developmental stage, and we have not yet conducted comprehensive risk assessments, established an incident response plan or engaged with external cybersecurity consultants for assessments or services.
Given our current stage of cybersecurity development, we have not experienced any significant cybersecurity incidents to date. However, we recognize that the absence of a formalized cybersecurity framework may leave us vulnerable to cyberattacks, data breaches and other cybersecurity incidents. Such events could potentially lead to unauthorized access to, or disclosure of, sensitive information, disrupt our business operations, result in regulatory fines or litigation costs and negatively impact our reputation among customers and partners.
We are in the process of evaluating our cybersecurity needs and developing appropriate measures to enhance our cybersecurity posture. This includes considering the engagement of external cybersecurity experts to advise on best practices, conducting vulnerability assessments and developing an incident response strategy. Our goal is to establish a cybersecurity framework that is commensurate with our size, complexity and the nature of our operations, thereby reducing our exposure to cybersecurity risks.
In addition, our Board of Directors will oversee any cybersecurity risk management framework and a dedicated committee of our Board of Directors or an officer appointed by our Board of Directors will review and approve any cybersecurity policies, strategies and risk management practices.
Despite our efforts to improve our cybersecurity measures, there can be no assurance that our initiatives will fully mitigate the risks posed by cyber threats. The landscape of cybersecurity risks is constantly evolving, and we will continue to assess and update our cybersecurity measures in response to emerging threats.
For a discussion of potential cybersecurity risks affecting us, please refer to the “Risk Factors” section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Director Independence
Nasdaq listing rules require that a majority of the board of directors of a company listed on Nasdaq be composed of “independent directors,” which is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. We have determined that each of Kevin Lowdermilk, Colin O’Sullivan, Scott Metzger, Cydonii V. Fairfax and David L. Wickersham are an independent director under the Nasdaq listing rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. In making these determinations, we considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with the Company and its subsidiaries, and all other facts and circumstances that we deemed relevant in determining independence, including the beneficial ownership of our common stock by each non-employee director, and the transactions involving them described in the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”

The Board of Directors held eleven meetings during the 2025 fiscal year and each member of our Board of Directors attended more than 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors that were held during the time that they served as members of the Board of Directors. We do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of the Board of Directors at the annual meeting of stockholders, but we strongly encourage all members of the Board of Directors to attend our annual meetings and expect such attendance except in the event of extraordinary circumstances.

The standing committees of our Board of Directors consist of an audit committee (the “Audit Committee”), a compensation committee (the “Compensation Committee”), and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”).

We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, the board of directors considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our stockholders.

Related Party Transactions
On October 4, 2023 and as amended on January 22, 2024, DHAC issued an unsecured promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $165,000 to M2B, an affiliate of Digital Health Sponsor, LLC, the sponsor of DHAC (the “Sponsor”), which is owned by Daniel Kordash, and such note was satisfied and paid off on January 31, 2024.
On November 21, 2023, DHAC and VSee Lab, entered into Securities Purchase Agreements (the “Conversion SPA”) with an institutional and accredited investor (the “Bridge Investor”) who is also an investor in the Sponsor, which Conversion SPA was amended and restated on February 13, 2024, pursuant to which certain loans incurred by VSee Lab to the Bridge Investor in the aggregate amount of $600,000 were converted into the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Common Stock”) subject to executing of certain registration rights agreement and filing a registration statement thereunder following the closing of the business combination by and among Digital Health Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“DHAC”) (n/k/a VSee Health, Inc.), DHAC Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of DHAC (“Merger Sub I”), DHAC Merger Sub II, Inc., a Texas corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of DHAC (“Merger Sub II”), VSee Lab, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“VSee Lab”), and iDoc Virtual Telehealth Solutions, Inc., a Texas corporation (“iDoc”) (the “Business Combination”).
On November 21, 2023, DHAC and iDoc, entered into a Conversion SPA with Tidewater Ventures, LLC (“Tidewater”), an affiliate of the Sponsor, which Conversion SPA was amended and restated on February 13, 2024, pursuant to which certain loans incurred by iDoc to Tidewater in the aggregate amount of $585,000 were converted into the Company’s Common Stock following the Closing.
On November 21, 2023, DHAC and iDoc, entered into a Conversion SPA with the Bridge Investor who is also an investor in our Sponsor, which Conversion SPA was amended and restated on February 13, 2024, pursuant to which certain loans incurred by iDoc to the Bridge Investor in the aggregate amount of $600,000 were converted into the Company’s Common Stock subject to executing of certain registration rights agreement and filing a registration statement thereunder following the Closing.
On December 31, 2024, the Company entered into the Ascent Purchase Agreement with Ascent, who is an affiliate of the Bridge Investor. Pursuant to the Ascent Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue Ascent the Ascent Note in the aggregate original principal amount of $2,000,000, which was secured by the assets of the Company and guaranteed by each of the Company, VSee Lab and iDoc. The Ascent Note bears interest at a rate of 10.00% per annum and will be convertible into shares of Common Stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $2.00 per share. The Ascent Note is convertible into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at any time after the original issue date.
On November 8, 2024, SCS, LLC (“SCS”) and the Company executed a securities purchase agreement whereby certain working capital funds in the aggregate amount of $405,000 previously advanced by SCS to the Company were converted into 202,500 shares of Common Stock. After the execution of the securities purchase agreement, approximately $52,000 of working capital advances from the Sponsor and certain Sponsor affiliates remains due and payable. The Company determined that the partial settlement of the working capital advances represented a troubled debt restructuring, as the Company determined it was experiencing financial difficulties and the lender granted a concession through the exchange for shares of Common Stock. Under the troubled debt restructuring accounting, the Company reduced the carrying amount of the working capital funds advances by the fair value of the shares of Common Stock issued ($261,225) and then compared the future undiscounted cash flows associated with the working capital advances to the carrying value. The Company determined an additional $143,775 reduction in the carrying value was necessary to equate it to the future undiscounted cash flows, representing a gain on restructuring. As SCS is a related party to the Company, the restructuring gain was treated as a capital transaction and recorded to additional paid in capital along with the fair value of the shares of Common Stock issued in the settlement.
In connection with the securities purchase agreement by and among DHAC, VSee Lab, iDoc and the Bridge Investor dated October 5, 2022 (the “Original Bridge SPA”), DHAC entered into a registration rights agreement dated October 5, 2022 and as amended further on January 22, 2024 with the Bridge Investor who is also an investor in our Sponsor (the “Bridge RRA”), which provides that DHAC would file a registration statement to register the shares of Common Stock underlying the (i) Bridge Warrants (as defined below), (ii) the bridge commitment shares, (iii) the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Bridge Notes and the Additional Bridge Notes (as defined below) and any anti-dilution or any remedies provisions of the Bridge Note and the Additional Bridge Notes; and (iv) any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, recapitalization or similar event no later than 30 calendar days after the Closing of Business Combination. Such obligation was fulfilled on about July 26, 2024 when the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No.333-280845) for registering such shares was declared effective by the SEC.

Pursuant to the amended and restated Conversion SPAs executed on February 13, 2024, DHAC agreed to provide registration rights to the Bridge Investor and Tidewater with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of certain notes assumed by the Company (the “Assumed Notes”) following the Closing of the Business Combination. With respect to the Bridge Investor, such obligation was fulfilled on about July 26, 2024 when the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-280845) for registering shares issued to the Bridge Investor under the respective Conversion SPAs was declared effective by the SEC.
Pursuant to the a convertible note purchase agreement (the “Quantum Purchase Agreement”), DHAC entered into with an institutional and accredited investor (the “Quantum Investor”) on November 21, 2023, pursuant to which the Quantum Investor subscribed for and purchased, and DHAC issued and sold to the Quantum Investor, at the Closing, a 7% original issue discount convertible promissory note (the “Quantum Note”), the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the Quantum Investor on July 9, 2024, pursuant to which it agreed to register the shares of Common Stock underlying the Quantum Note.
In connection with the Ascent Purchase Agreement, the Company and Ascent, who is also an affiliate of the Bridge Investor, entered into a registration rights agreement on September 30, 2024, which provides that the Company will file a registration statement to register (i) the shares of Common Stock underlying the Ascent Note; (ii) the shares of Common Stock issuable as interest or principal on the Ascent Note; (iii) the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise in full of all the Ascent Warrants; (vi) the Commitment Shares; (v) the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to any anti-dilution or any remedies provisions of the Ascent Note and the Ascent Warrants; and (vi) any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, recapitalization or similar event.
In connection with the execution of the Second Business Combination Agreement, DHAC, along with VSee and iDoc, the target companies in the Business Combination, entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Bridge Investor, who was also an investor in the Sponsor, pursuant to which DHAC, VSee and iDoc each issued and sold to such investor 10% original issue discount senior secured promissory notes due October 5, 2023 in the aggregate principal amount of $2,222,222 (the “Bridge Notes”). The Bridge Notes bear guaranteed interest at a rate of 10.00% per annum and are convertible into shares of DHAC common stock under certain conditions described below. In connection with the purchase of the Bridge Notes, DHAC issued the investor (i) 173,913 warrants, each representing the right to purchase one share of DHAC common stock at an initial exercise price of $11.50, subject to certain adjustments and as amended on November 8, 2024 (the “Bridge Warrants”) and (ii) 30,000 shares of DHAC common stock.
On June 21, 2024, we entered into a Consulting Services Agreement with SCS, who is an affiliate of the Sponsor, pursuant to which we shall pay SCS $12,500 per month for business consulting services. The Consulting Services Agreement shall continue for twelve (12) months and shall automatically continue on a six-month term basis thereafter unless terminated by either party.
On November 21, 2023, DHAC, VSee and iDoc entered into a letter agreement to the October 2022 securities purchase agreement, pursuant to which the Bridge Investor agreed to purchase additional 10% original issue discount senior secured convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $166,667 (with an aggregate subscription amount of $150,000) from DHAC with (1) a $111,111.33 note purchased at signing of the Bridge Amendment, which will mature on May 21, 2025 and (2) a $55,555.67 note purchased on January 25, 2024, which will mature on July 25, 2025 (as amended, the “Additional Bridge Notes”). The Additional Bridge Notes bear guaranteed interest at a rate of 8.00% per annum and converted into shares of DHAC common stock, par value $0.0001 at a fixed conversion price of $10 per share. In addition, on April 17, 2024, DHAC, VSee, iDoc and the Bridge Investor entered a letter agreement, which amended the business combination timelines in the Additional Bridge Notes.
On March 28, 2024, iDoc issued and sold a secured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of two hundred twenty four thousand ($224,000) (the “Note”) to Mr. David L. Wickersham, a member of our Board of Directors. The Note was fully satisfied and paid off by the issuance of 114,000 shares of the Company common stock to Mr. Wickersham on the maturity date.
On May 31, 2026, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Chen Purchase Agreement”) with Milton Chen, the Company’s former co-Chief Executive Officer, former Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer of VSee Lab. Pursuant to the Chen Purchase Agreement, Mr. Chen agreed to purchase, and the Company agreed to sell to Mr. Chen, on the May 31, 2026 (the “Chen Closing Date”), all of the equity securities of VSee Lab (the “VSee Lab Stock”), free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. Under the Chen Purchase Agreement, Mr. Chen is solely responsible for causing the Company to satisfy any and all indebtedness and other liabilities of VSee Lab that are not paid as of the closing contemplated by the Chen Purchase Agreement (the “Chen Closing”) and the Company has no obligation with respect thereto. Notwithstanding, the Company will retain, pay, perform and discharge and remain solely responsible for, any and all liabilities, obligations or commitments of VSee Lab or relating to the ownership or operation of VSee Lab related to any period, event, circumstance or condition occurring prior to the Chen Closing Date, including any liabilities relating to taxes for any and all taxes attributable to any taxable period ending on or before the Chen Closing Date and the portion through the Chen Closing Date for any taxable period that includes, but does not end, on the Chen Closing Date, other than sales and use taxes accrued at the company level, which will remain an obligation of VSee Lab, regardless of the time period of when such obligation were incurred and except to the extent expressly assumed by Mr. Chen pursuant to the Chen Purchase Agreement. In consideration for the VSee Lab Stock and the mutual release of liability set forth in the Chen Purchase Agreement, Mr. Chen agreed to transfer to the Company all of the shares of Common Stock that he currently held, or 2,870,069 shares of Common Stock. In connection with the execution of the Chen Purchase Agreement, Mr. Chen resigned as co-Chief Executive Officer and chairman of the board of directors of the Company, effective as of the Chen Closing Date.
It is the policy of iDoc that all transactions with related parties be at arm’s length and on terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances.

Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions
We have adopt a related person transaction policy that sets forth its procedures for the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of related person transactions.
For purposes of the Company’s policy only, a related person transaction is a transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which the Company and any related person are, were or will be participants in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to the Company as an employee or director are not covered by this policy. A related person is any executive officer, director or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities and any of their respective immediate family members and any entity owned or controlled by such persons.
Under the policy, if a transaction has been identified as a related person transaction, including any transaction that was not a related person transaction when originally consummated or any transaction that was not initially identified as a related person transaction prior to consummation, the Company’s management must present information regarding the related person transaction to the Company’s audit committee, or, if audit committee approval would be inappropriate, to another independent body of the Company’s Board of Directors, for review, consideration and approval or ratification. The presentation must include a description of, among other things, the material facts, the interests, direct and indirect, of the related persons, the benefits to the Company of the transaction and whether the transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to or from, as the case may be, an unrelated third party or to or from employees generally. Under the policy, the Company will collect information that the Company deems reasonably necessary from each director, executive officer and, to the extent feasible, significant stockholder to enable the Company to identify any existing or potential related-person transactions and to effectuate the terms of the policy. In addition, under the Company’s Code of Conduct that the Company expects to adopt prior to the closing of this Business Combination, the Company’s employees and directors will have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest. In considering related person transactions, the Company’s audit committee, or other independent body of the Company’s Board of Directors, will take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances including, but not limited to:
| ● | the risks, costs and benefits to the Company; |
| ● | the impact on a director’s independence in the event that the related person is a director, immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated; |
| ● | the availability of other sources for comparable services or products; and |
| ● | the terms available to or from, as the case may be, unrelated third parties or to or from employees generally. |
The policy requires that, in determining whether to approve, ratify or reject a related person transaction, the Company’s audit committee, or other independent body of the Company’s Board of Directors, must consider, in light of known circumstances, whether the transaction is in, or is not inconsistent with, the Company’s best interests and those of the Company’s stockholders, as the Company’s audit committee, or other independent body of the Company’s Board of Directors, determines in the good faith exercise of its discretion.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
Since the formation of our Audit Committee, and on a going-forward basis, the Audit Committee has and will pre-approve all auditing services and permitted non-audit services to be performed for us by our auditors, including the fees and terms thereof (subject to the de minimis exceptions for non-audit services described in the Exchange Act which are approved by the audit committee prior to the completion of the audit).

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS
VOTE “FOR” AUDITOR PROPOSAL.
14
PROPOSAL NO. 3 — THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT PROPOSAL
Our Board of Directors has approved, subject to stockholder approval, by written consent in lieu of a meeting, a proposal to amend our Certificate of Incorporation to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits of all our outstanding shares of Common Stock, at a ratio between 1-for-2 and 1-for-250, to be determined at the discretion of the Board, subject to the Board’s discretion to abandon such amendment. If this proposal is approved, the Board may decide not to effect any Reverse Stock Splits if it determines that it is not in the best interests of the Company to do so. The Board does not currently intend to seek re-approval of a Reverse Stock Split for any delay in implementing a Reverse Stock Split unless twenty-four months have passed from the date of the Record Date (the “Authorized Period”). If the Board determines to implement one or more Reverse Stock Splits, such Reverse Stock Split(s) will become effective upon filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later date specified therein.
The text of the proposed Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a Reverse Stock Split is included as Annex A to this Proxy Statement.
Approval of the proposal would permit (but not require) our Board of Directors to effect one or more reverse stock splits of our issued and outstanding Common Stock by a ratio of not less than 1-for-2 and not more than 1-for-250, with the exact ratio to be set at a number within this range as determined by our Board of Directors in its sole discretion, provided that (X) the Company shall not effect Reverse Stock Splits that, in the aggregate, exceed 1-for-250, and (Y) any Reverse Stock Split is completed no later than the second anniversary of the Record Date. We believe that enabling our Board of Directors to set the ratio within the stated range will allow the Company to have the flexibility to meet its obligations and provide us with the flexibility to implement the Reverse Stock Split in a manner designed to maximize the anticipated benefits for our stockholders. In determining a ratio, if any, our Board may consider, among other things, factors such as:
| ● | the number of shares of Common Stock the Company is obligated to issue or reserve pursuant to any convertible securities of the Company, including shares of convertible preferred stock; |
| ● | The aggregate amount of shares that may be reserved under outstanding equity incentive plans; |
| ● | the initial or continuing listing requirements of various stock exchanges; |
| ● | the historical trading price and trading volume of our Common Stock; |
| ● | the number of shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding; |
| ● | the then-prevailing trading price and trading volume of our Common Stock and the anticipated impact of the Reverse Stock Split on the trading market for our Common Stock; and |
| ● | prevailing general market and economic conditions. |
Our Board reserves the right to elect to abandon a Reverse Stock Split, including any or all proposed reverse stock split ratios, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that a Reverse Stock Split is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
Depending on the ratio for the Reverse Stock Splits determined by our Board of Directors, if any, no less than two and no more than two hundred and fifty shares of existing Common Stock, as determined by our Board of Directors, will be combined into one share of Common Stock. The Company shall not effect Reverse Stock Splits that, in the aggregate, exceeds 1-for-250. The Company does not currently intend to issue fractional shares of Common Stock in connection with any Reverse Stock Split. Therefore, the Company will issue to stockholders of record who would otherwise hold a fractional share because the number of shares of common stock they hold of record before the Reverse Stock Split is not evenly divisible by the Reverse Stock Split ratio that number of shares of Common Stock, as rounded up to the nearest whole share. No stockholders will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares. An amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a Reverse Stock Split, if any, will include only the reverse split ratio determined by our Board of Directors at that time to be in the best interests of our stockholders.
Reasons for the Reverse Stock Splits
The Company’s primary reason for approving and recommending one or more Reverse Stock Splits is to: (1) satisfy the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq Capital Market; (2) make the Common Stock more attractive to certain institutional investors which would provide for a stronger investor base; and (3) decrease our Delaware annual franchise tax, which may be calculated based upon the number of issued shares. The Company intends to utilize one or more Reverse Stock Splits in order to meet its contractual obligations and retain enough flexibility for future corporate actions.
Reducing the number of issued shares of Common Stock may, absent other factors, increase the per share market price of the Common Stock. The Company believes that the Reverse Stock Splits may make its Common Stock more attractive to a broader range of investors, as it believes that the current market price of the Common Stock may prevent certain institutional investors, professional investors and other members of the investing public from purchasing our Common Stock. Many brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. Furthermore, some of those policies and practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Moreover, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price per share of Common Stock can result in individual stockholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if the share price were higher. The Company believes that the Reverse Stock Split(s), if any, will make the Common Stock a more attractive and cost effective investment for many investors, which in turn would enhance the liquidity of the holders of Common Stock.
15
Potential Consequences of the Reverse Stock Splits
However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Stock Splits, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the market price of our Common Stock will increase following the Reverse Stock Splits or that the market price of our Common Stock will not decrease in the future. Additionally, we cannot assure you that the market price per share of our Common Stock after any Reverse Stock Split will increase in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding before any Reverse Stock Split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our Common Stock after any Reverse Stock Split may be lower than the total market capitalization before such Reverse Stock Split. Moreover, because some investors may view the Reverse Stock Split negatively, we cannot assure you that the Reverse Stock Split will not adversely impact the market price of our Common Stock.
The market price of our Common Stock will also be based on our performance and other factors, some of which are unrelated to the Reverse Stock Split or the number of shares outstanding. Furthermore, the liquidity of our Common Stock could be adversely affected by the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the Reverse Stock Split.
While we believe that the Reverse Stock Split will be sufficient to maintain our listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market, it is possible that, even if the Reverse Stock Split results in a closing price for our Common Stock that exceeds $1.00 per share, we may not be able to continue to satisfy the other criteria for continued listing of our Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market. In addition, as a Delaware corporation, we are required to pay an annual Delaware franchise tax which is calculated based upon several variables, including a company’s number of total outstanding shares as compared to the company’s number of authorized shares of capital stock. We believe that a decrease in the number of outstanding shares as a result of any Reverse Stock Split may decrease our annual Delaware franchise tax liability; however, no assurance can be given that the decrease in outstanding shares will decrease our annual Delaware franchise tax liability.
Procedure for Implementing a Reverse Stock Split
A Reverse Stock Split would become effective upon the filing or such later time as specified in the filing (the “Effective Time”) of a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State. The form of a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation effecting a Reverse Stock Split is attached hereto as Appendix A. The exact timing of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment that would effectuate the Reverse Stock Split would be determined by our Board based on its evaluation as to when such action will be the most advantageous to the Company and our stockholders. In addition, our Board would reserve the right, without further action by the stockholders, to elect not to proceed with a Reverse Stock Split if, at any time prior to filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a Reverse Stock Split, our Board, in its sole discretion, determines that it is no longer in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders to proceed with a Reverse Stock Split. Our Board will only have authority to file with the Delaware Secretary of State a Certificate of Amendment effecting a Reverse Stock Split within one year from the Record Date.
Effect of the Reverse Stock Split on Holders of Outstanding Common Stock
Depending on the ratio for the Reverse Stock Splits determined by our Board, a minimum of two and a maximum of two hundred and fifty shares in aggregate of existing Common Stock will be combined into one new share of Common Stock. The table below, which illustrates the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance following different Reverse Stock Splits, the approximate number of shares of Common Stock that would remain outstanding following each such Reverse Stock Split, and the number of unreserved shares of Common Stock available for future issuance following each such Reverse Stock Split. The examples in the table below for Reverse Stock Splits range from 1-for-2 to 1-for-250, which is the aggregate ratio allowed under this proposal. Any other ratios selected within such range would result in a number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding following the transaction between 222,719 and 27,839,906 shares. The information in the following table is based on 55,679,813 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of July 6, 2026 and 32,610,414 shares reserved for future issuance as of July 6, 2026 assuming conversion of all convertible securities of the Company.
| Proposed Ratio | Number of authorized shares of Common Stock | Approximate Number of Shares of Common Stock Issued and Outstanding Post-Reverse Stock Split | Approximate Number of Unreserved Shares of Common Stock Available for Future Issuance Assuming Conversion of all Outstanding Convertible Securities Post-Stock Increase Amendment | |||||||||
| 1-for-2 | 100,000,000 | 27,839,906 | 55,854,887 | |||||||||
| 1-for-50 | 100,000,000 | 1,113,596 | 98,234,168 | |||||||||
| 1-for-100 | 100,000,000 | 556,798 | 99,117,098 | |||||||||
| 1-for-250 | 100,000,000 | 222,719 | 99,646,839 | |||||||||
The actual number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding after giving effect to a Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, will depend on the Reverse Stock Split ratio and the number of Reverse Stock Splits, if any, that are ultimately determined by our Board of Directors.
16
Any Reverse Stock Splits will affect all holders of our Common Stock uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except as described below in “Fractional Shares.” Record holders of Common Stock otherwise entitled to a fractional share as a result of a Reverse Stock Split will receive a full share rather than a fractional share.
In the event the Company effectuates one or more Reverse Stock Splits, the Company will be able to issue substantially more Common Stock. Future issuances of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock will have a significant dilutive effect on the earnings per share, book value per share, voting power and percentage interest of holdings of current stockholders. If a Reverse Stock Split is effected, our stockholders will experience significant dilution as a result of shares of Common Stock being issued pursuant to our outstanding convertible securities, including our outstanding convertible preferred stock. Further, due to our need to raise additional capital in order to fund continuing operations, our stockholders will also experience significant dilution as a result of shares of Common Stock being issued in connection with future financings that the Company may complete.
The Reverse Stock Splits may result in some stockholders owning “odd lots” of less than 100 shares of Common Stock. Odd lot shares may be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in “round lots” of even multiples of 100 shares.
After the Effective Time, our Common Stock will have a new Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures (CUSIP) number, which is a number used to identify our equity securities, and stock certificates with the older CUSIP number will need to be exchanged for stock certificates with the new CUSIP number by following the procedures described below. After the Reverse Stock Splits, we will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act. Bid and ask prices for our Common Stock will continue to be quoted on the Nasdaq under the symbol “VSEE.”
After the effective time of the Reverse Stock Splits, the post-split market price of our Common Stock may be less than the pre-split price multiplied by the Reverse Stock Split ratio. In addition, a reduction in number of shares issued may impair the liquidity for our Common Stock, which may reduce the value of our Common Stock.
No Going Private Transaction
Notwithstanding the decrease in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock following the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split(s), the Board does not intend for this transaction to be the first step in a “going private transaction” within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act and the implementation of the proposed Reverse Stock Split(s) will not cause the Company to go private.
Authorized Shares of Common Stock
The Reverse Stock Splits will not change the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. Because the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock will decrease, the number of shares of Common Stock remaining available for issuance will increase. Currently, under our Certificate of Incorporation, our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock. Please see “Reasons for the Reverse Stock Splits; Potential Consequences of the Reverse Stock Splits” for more information.
By increasing the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, the Reverse Stock Splits could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect, although this is not the intent of the Board of Directors. For example, it may be possible for the Board of Directors to delay or impede a takeover or transfer of control of the Company by causing such additional authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to be issued to holders who might side with the Board of Directors in opposing a takeover bid that it determines is not in the best interests of the Company or its stockholders. The Reverse Stock Split therefore may have the effect of discouraging unsolicited takeover attempts. By potentially discouraging initiation of any such unsolicited takeover attempts the Reverse Stock Splits may limit the opportunity for the Company’s stockholders to dispose of their shares at the higher price generally available in takeover attempts or that may be available under a merger proposal. The Reverse Stock Split may have the effect of permitting the Company’s current management, including the current Board of Directors, to retain its position, and place it in a better position to resist changes that the Company’s stockholders may wish to make if they are dissatisfied with the conduct of the Company’s business. However, the Board of Directors is not aware of any attempt to take control of the Company and the Board of Directors has not approved the Reverse Stock Splits with the intent that they be utilized as a type of anti-takeover device.
Beneficial Holders of Common Stock (i.e. Stockholders who hold in street name)
Upon the implementation of a Reverse Stock Split, we intend to treat shares held by stockholders through a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee in the same manner as registered stockholders whose shares of Common Stock are registered in their names. Banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees will be instructed to effect a Reverse Stock Split for their beneficial holders holding our Common Stock in street name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees may have different procedures than registered stockholders for processing the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who hold shares of our Common Stock with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee and who have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact their banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees.
17
Registered “Book-Entry” Holders of Common Stock (i.e. Stockholders that are registered on the transfer agent’s books and records but do not hold stock certificates)
Certain of our registered holders of Common Stock may hold some or all of their shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent. These stockholders do not have stock certificates evidencing their ownership of the Common Stock. They are, however, provided with a statement reflecting the number of shares registered in their accounts.
Stockholders who hold shares of Common Stock electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent will not need to take action (the exchange will be automatic) to receive whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock, subject to adjustment for treatment of fractional shares.
Holders of Certificated Shares of Common Stock
Stockholders holding shares of our Common Stock in certificated form will be sent a transmittal letter by our transfer agent after the effective time of the Stock Split. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how a stockholder should surrender his, her or its certificate(s) representing shares of our Common Stock (the “Old Certificates”) to the transfer agent in exchange for certificates representing the appropriate number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock (the “New Certificates”). No New Certificates will be issued to a stockholder until such stockholder has surrendered all Old Certificates, together with a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to the transfer agent. No stockholder will be required to pay a transfer or other fee to exchange his, her or its Old Certificates. Stockholders will then receive a New Certificate(s) representing the number of whole shares of Common Stock that they are entitled as a result of a Reverse Stock Split, subject to the treatment of fractional shares described below. Until surrendered, we will deem outstanding Old Certificates held by stockholders to be cancelled and only to represent the number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock to which these stockholders are entitled, subject to the treatment of fractional shares. Any Old Certificates submitted for exchange, whether because of a sale, transfer or other disposition of stock, will automatically be exchanged for New Certificates. If an Old Certificate has a restrictive legend on the back of the Old Certificate(s), the New Certificate will be issued with the same restrictive legends that are on the back of the Old Certificate(s).
The Company expects that our transfer agent will act as exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates. No service charges will be payable by holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the exchange of certificates. All of such expenses will be borne by the Company.
STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.
Fractional Shares
The Company does not currently intend to issue fractional shares of Common Stock in connection with any Reverse Stock Split. Therefore, the Company does not expect to issue certificates representing fractional shares of Common Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares, the Company will issue to stockholders of record who would otherwise hold a fractional share because the number of shares of common stock they hold of record before the Reverse Stock Split is not evenly divisible by the Reverse Stock Split ratio that number of shares of common stock, as rounded up to the nearest whole share. No stockholders will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.
The Company does not expect the Reverse Stock Split and the rounding up of fractional shares to whole shares to result in a significant reduction in the number of record holders. The Company presently does not intend to seek any change in its status as a reporting company for federal securities law purposes, either before or after the Reverse Stock Split.
Effect of the Reverse Stock Split(s) on Employee Plans, Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Units, Warrants, Convertible or Exchangeable Securities, and Preferred Stock.
Based upon the applicable Reverse Stock Split ratio determined by the Board of Directors, proportionate adjustments are generally required to be made to the per share exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities, including any preferred stock, entitling the holders to purchase, exchange for, or convert into, shares of Common Stock. This would result in approximately the same aggregate price being required to be paid under such options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities upon exercise, and approximately the same value of shares of Common Stock being delivered upon such exercise, exchange or conversion, immediately following such Reverse Stock Split as was the case immediately preceding such Reverse Stock Split. The number of shares deliverable upon settlement or vesting of restricted stock awards will be similarly adjusted, subject to our treatment of fractional shares. The number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to these securities will be proportionately based upon the Reverse Stock Split ratio determined by the Board, subject to our treatment of fractional shares. In the event of a Reverse Stock Split, the maximum number of shares that can be issued under the Company’s compensation plans in effect (including the ISO share grant limit), the number of shares issued under such plans and subject to each award, the exercise prices of outstanding awards, the maximum number of shares that are reserved under the plans, and the number of shares available for issuance under the plans, will each be equitably and proportionately adjusted.

Accounting Matters
The proposed amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation will not affect the par value of our Common Stock per share, which will remain $0.0001 par value per share.
Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split
The following summary describes certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s) to holders of our Common Stock.
Unless otherwise specifically indicated herein, this summary addresses the tax consequences only to a beneficial owner of our Common Stock that is (i) a citizen or individual resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust if (1) its administration is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions, or (2) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person (a “U.S. holder”). This summary does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to any particular investor, including tax considerations that arise from rules of general application to all taxpayers or to certain classes of taxpayers or that are generally assumed to be known by investors. In addition, it does not purport to address all aspects of federal income taxation that may be relevant to stockholders in light of their particular circumstances or to any stockholder that may be subject to special tax rules, including without limitation: (i) persons that may be subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, such as banks, insurance companies, thrift institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt organizations, U.S. expatriates, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, traders in securities that elect to mark to market and dealers in securities or currencies, (ii) persons that hold our Common Stock as part of a position in a “straddle” or as part of a “hedging,” “conversion” or other integrated investment transaction for federal income tax purposes, or (iii) persons that do not hold our Common Stock as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment).
If a partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships that hold our Common Stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s).
This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), U.S. Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial authority, all as in effect as of the date of this Proxy Statement. Subsequent developments in U.S. federal income tax law, including changes in law or differing interpretations, which may be applied retroactively, could have a material effect on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s). There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will not take a contrary position to the tax consequences described herein or that such position will be sustained by a court. No opinion of counsel or ruling from the Internal Revenue Service has been obtained with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s).
PLEASE CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND FOREIGN INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT(S) IN YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER TAXING JURISDICTION.
U.S. Holders
Based on the assumption that the Reverse Stock Split(s) will constitute a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, and subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in this discussion, the following is a general discussion of the U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the Reverse Stock Split(s).
We believe that the Reverse Stock Split(s) should be treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, a U.S. holder generally should not recognize gain or loss on the Reverse Stock Split(s). The aggregate tax basis of the post-split shares of Common Stock received should be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the pre-split shares of Common Stock exchanged therefore (excluding any portion of the holder’s basis allocated to fractional shares), and the holding period of the post-split shares of Common Stock received will include the holding period of the pre-split shares of Common Stock exchanged. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors as to the application of the foregoing rules where shares of our Common Stock were acquired at different times or at different prices.
Cash payments received by a U.S. holder of our Common Stock pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split(s) may be subject to information reporting, and may be subject to backup withholding if the U.S. holder fails to provide a valid taxpayer identification number and comply with certain certification procedures or otherwise establish an exemption from backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of the person subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of the tax withheld. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information is timely furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.
No Appraisal Rights
Under Delaware law and our charter documents, holders of our Common Stock will not be entitled to dissenter’s rights or appraisal rights with respect to any Reverse Stock Splits.
Vote Required
Assuming a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, either in person or by proxy, is required for approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal. For purposes of the reverse stock split proposal, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote.
19
PROPOSAL NO. 4 — THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL
In the event there are not sufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the adoption of the above proposals, the Board of Directors may adjourn the Annual Meeting to a later date, or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation of proxies. In no event will we solicit proxies to adjourn the Annual Meeting beyond the date by which we may properly do so under our Certificate of Incorporation and Delaware law.
The chairman of the Board of Directors has the authority to adjourn any meeting of our stockholders, including the Annual Meeting.
Vote Required and Board of Directors’ Recommendation
Assuming a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote, is required for approval of the Adjournment Proposal. For purposes of the approval of the Adjournment Proposal, abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the result of the vote.
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL.
REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, on behalf of the Board of Directors, serves as an independent and objective party to monitor and provide general oversight of the integrity of our financial statements, the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, the performance of the independent registered public accounting firm, the compliance by us with legal and regulatory requirements and our standards of business conduct. The Audit Committee performs these oversight responsibilities in accordance with its Audit Committee Charter.
Our management is responsible for preparing our financial statements and our financial reporting process. Our independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to administer and oversee these processes.
However, the members of the Audit Committee are not practicing certified public accountants or professional auditors and rely, without independent verification, on information provided to them and on the representations made by management, and on the report issued by the independent registered public accounting firm.
The Audit Committee met with the independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the audit plan, the results of their examinations, and the overall quality of our financial reporting.
In this context, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 with management and with the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications with Audit Committees, which includes, among other items, matters related to the conduct of the audit of our annual financial statements.
The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the issue of its independence from us and management. In addition, the Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of any non-audit services by the independent registered public accounting firm in the year ended December 31, 2025 is compatible with maintaining the registered public accounting firm’s independence and has concluded that it is.
Based on its review of the audited financial statements and the various discussions noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
| Respectfully, | |
| Kevin Lowdermilk | |
| Colin O’Sullivan | |
| Cydonii V. Fairfax |
The foregoing Audit Committee Report does not constitute soliciting material and shall not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent we specifically incorporate this Audit Committee Report by reference therein.

We suggest that stockholders submit any stockholder proposal by certified mail, return receipt requested.
Our Bylaws require advance notice of any proposal by a stockholder intended to be presented at an annual meeting that is not included in our notice of annual meeting and proxy statement because it was not timely submitted under the following paragraph, or made by or at the direction of any member of the Board of Directors, including any proposal for the nomination for election as a director. To be considered for such presentation at our 2027 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2027 Annual Meeting”), any such stockholder proposal must be received by the Secretary, VSee Health, Inc., at 980 N. Federal Hwy, Suite 304, Boca Raton, Florida 77098, not less than ninety (90) days nor more than one hundred twenty (120) days before the first anniversary of the date on which the corporation held its annual meeting in the immediately preceding year, and must otherwise comply with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 14a-8 of Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, provided that if the 2027 Annual Meeting is scheduled to be held on a date more than thirty (30) days before or more than seventy (70) days after the anniversary date of this Annual Meeting of stockholders, a stockholder’s proposal shall be timely if delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Secretary of our Company not earlier than the 120th day prior to the date of the 2027 Annual Meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (A) the ninetieth (90) day prior to the 2027 Annual Meeting and (B) the tenth (10) day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of the 2027 Annual Meeting is first made by us, and in any case discretionary authority may be used if such proposal is untimely submitted. Assuming the date of the 2027 Annual Meeting is held on a date that is not more than thirty (30) days before or more than seventy (70) days after the anniversary date of this Annual Meeting, stockholders proposals must be received by the Secretary no earlier than April 27, 2027 and no later than May 27, 2027.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities (“Reporting Persons”), to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. The Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file with the SEC. Based solely on our review of the reports filed by Reporting Persons, and written representations from certain Reporting Persons that no other reports were required for those persons, we believe that, during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Reporting Persons met all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements, except: (i) two late Form 4 filing by Lawrence M. Sands; and (ii) two late Form 4 filing by Digital Health Sponsor LLC.

Requests for copies of such Annual Report on Form 10-K should be directed to VSee Health, Inc., 980 N Federal Hwy, Suite 304, Boca Raton, Florida 33432, Attn: Chief Financial Officer and Secretary.
Our Board of Directors does not know of any other matters that are to be presented for action at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting or any adjournments thereof, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will have the discretionary authority to vote all proxies received with respect to such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

ANNEX A
CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT
TO
THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF
VSEE HEALTH, INC.
VSee Health, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), does hereby certify:
FIRST. The Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation is hereby amended by changing Article IV, so that, as amended, the following shall be added as the third paragraph of Article IV:
“Reverse Stock Split. Effective at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on [ ], 20__ (the “Reverse Split Effective Time”), every [ ] shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation as treasury shares as of the Reverse Split Effective Time shall automatically, and without action on the part of the stockholders, be combined, reclassified and changed into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock, without effecting a change to the par value per share of Common Stock, subject to the treatment of fractional interests as described below (the “Reverse Split”). No fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the exchange. In lieu thereof, any person who holds a fraction of one (1) share of Common Stock after the exchange shall have their fraction of one (1) share rounded up to the nearest whole fraction of one (1) share of Common Stock. As of the Reverse Split Effective Time and thereafter, a certificate representing shares of Common Stock prior to the Reverse Split is deemed to represent the number of post-Reverse Split shares into which the pre-Reverse Split shares were reclassified and combined. The Reverse Split shall also apply to any outstanding securities or rights convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Common Stock of the Corporation and all references to such Common Stock in agreements, arrangements, documents and plans relating thereto, or any option or right to purchase or acquire shares of Common Stock, shall be deemed to be references to the Common Stock, or options or rights to purchase or acquire shares of Common Stock, after giving effect to the Reverse Split.”
SECOND. That a resolution was duly adopted by unanimous written consent of the directors of the Corporation, pursuant to Section 242 of the DGCL, setting forth the above mentioned amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and declaring said amendment to be advisable.
THIRD. Pursuant to the resolution of the board of directors of the Corporation, a meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation was duly called and held upon notice in accordance with Section 222 of the DGCL at which meeting the necessary number of shares as required by statute were voted in favor of the foregoing amendment.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Certificate of Amendment of the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation has been signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation this [ ] day of [ ], 20__.
