Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreeement.
As previously disclosed, Electriq Power Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and Meteora Special Opportunity Fund I, LP, Meteora Capital Partners, LP and Meteora Select Trading Opportunities Master, LP entered into a Forward Purchase Agreement on July 23, 2023 (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”). On November 12, 2023, the Company and Meteora Capital LLC and its affiliates (“Meteora”) entered into a binding term sheet (the “Binding Term Sheet”) which (a) terminates the Forward Purchase Agreement and (b) includes a $500,000 lead investor PIPE commitment by Meteora in equity securities of the Company if the Company raises a minimum of $7,000,000 of total capital in the future.
It is anticipated that the Company and Meteora will enter into definitive agreements containing the terms and conditions set forth in the Binding Term Sheet and such other terms and conditions as are mutually agreed by the parties (the “Definitive Documentation”). Until such Definitive Documentation is fully executed, the Binding Term Sheet shall constitute a valid and binding agreement between the Company and Meteora. However, if the Definitive Documentation is not executed on or before November 30, 2023 (the “Termination Date”), which may be extended at the election of Meteora by written notice to the Company, the Binding Term Sheet shall terminate as of the Termination Date and be of no further force or effect.
Termination of the Forward Purchase Agreement
Pursuant to the Binding Term Sheet, the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (“Shares”) Meteora purchased in connection with the Forward Purchase Agreement, totaling 3,534,492 Shares, and the number of shares issued pursuant to the FPA Funding Amount PIPE Subscription Agreement dated July 31, 2023, totaling 251,194 Shares will continue to be held by Meteora free and clear of all obligations or restrictions, and the Forward Purchase Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect.
Additionally, pursuant to the Binding Term Sheet, the Company will issue to Meteora 3,500,000 warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase Shares that will be exercisable for 5 years following the date of issuance for $0.001 per share at Meteora’s sole discretion, at which time, the Prepayment Shortfall, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement, is deemed repaid in full. Meteora is restricted to exercising the number of Warrants equal to a fixed value of $3,500,000 (the “Exercise Maximum”). If any Warrants remain unexercised after the Exercise Maximum is reached, the balance of Warrants shall be terminated.
PIPE Commitment
Pursuant to the Binding Term Sheet, if the Company raises a minimum of $7,000,000 of total capital in the future, Meteora will make a $500,000 PIPE investment in the Company on terms pari-passu with other similar investors.
