EXPLANATORY NOTE
The Amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Amendment”), which amends the Current Report on Form 8-K of The Vita Coco Company, Inc. originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 18, 2022 (the “Original Report”), is being filed solely to add Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (“XBRL”) tagging to the cover page.

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On April 14, 2022, Axelle Henry notified The Vita Coco Company, Inc. (the “Company”) of her intent to resign as a Class I Director of the Company's Board of Directors ("Board") and its Audit Committee following the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders in June 2022 (the “2022 Annual Meeting”), and that she therefore will not stand for reelection to the Board at the 2022 Annual Meeting. Ms. Henry’s decision to resign was not the result of any disagreement with the policies, procedures or practices of the Company. Ms. Henry was initially appointed to the Board as a designee of Verlinvest Beverages SA, pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement dated as of October 20, 2021, between the Company, Verlinvest, Michael Kirban and Ira Liran.
