As previously disclosed, on August 5, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing that it had entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) for a proposed business combination between the Company and Thramann Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”). The LOI contemplates a business combination between Auddia and Holdings with Auddia becoming a public holding company trading under a new name and ticker symbol. The transaction would result in the portfolio companies of Holdings and Auddia becoming subsidiaries of the public holding company.
The parties initially agreed to a 30-day exclusivity period (expiring September 3, 2025) to negotiate a definitive business combination agreement, which will include customary closing conditions such as board and stockholder approvals, regulatory approvals, effectiveness of a registration statement relating to the issuance of Auddia common stock in the business combination and continued listing of the combined company’s common stock on Nasdaq.
On September 3, 2025, the parties agreed to a 45-day extension of the exclusivity period (which will now expire on October 18, 2025) under the LOI.
On October 17, 2025, the parties agreed to an additional extension of the exclusivity period until 30 days after the Securities and Exchange Commission is no longer operating under its Operations Plan Under a Lapse in Appropriations and Government Shutdown (which commenced on October 1, 2025).
