NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

The SAFE notes are classified as a liability based on evaluating characteristics of the instrument and is presented at fair value as a non-current liability in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The SAFE notes provide the Company an option to call for additional preferred stock up to $25,000,000 based on the contingent event of SAFE notes conversion and notice issued by the Board, and achievement of certain milestones, for up to 42 months following such conversion. This feature was determined to be an embedded feature and is valued as part of the liability value associated with the instrument as a whole. The terms for SAFE notes were amended on November 18, 2023 for both the original and new issuance to introduce a discount rate of 20% to the lowest price per share of preferred stock sold or the listing price of the Company’s common stock upon consummation of a SPAC transaction or IPO. Additionally, the SAFE notes provide the investor certain rights upon an equity financing, change in control or dissolution.

 

On March 21, 2024, the Company entered into a Financing Commitment and Equity Line of Credit Agreement with American Investor Group Direct LLC (“AIGD”). The agreement replaced the above contingent commitment feature of the SAFE notes, granting the Company an option to drawdown up to an additional $15,000,000 on terms similar to the SAFE notes prior to the first effective time. On April 24, 2024, the Company amended and restated the August 2023 SAFE note and the November 2023 SAFE note. On May 1, 2024, the Company amended and restated the February 2024 SAFE note. These amendments clarify the conversion mechanism in connection with the Business Combination.

 

The estimated fair value of the SAFE notes considered the timing of issuance and whether there were changes in the various scenarios since issuance. As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the SAFE notes is $6,367,200 and $5,212,200, respectively, and is classified as a non-current liability. The SAFE notes had no interest rate or maturity date, description of dividend and participation rights. The liquidation preference of the SAFE notes is junior to other outstanding indebtedness and creditor claims, on par with payments for other SAFEs and/or preferred equity, and senior to payments for other equity of the Company that is not SAFEs and/or pari preferred equity.
