Notes Payable Notes Payable
The Company has entered into notes payable agreements with third parties. The tables below summarize these agreements as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, providing details on contractual maturity dates, contractual interest rates, unpaid principal balances, fair value adjustments, original issue discounts, including proceeds allocated to warrants, and net carrying values.
Most of the Company’s notes payable are accounted for under the fair value option in accordance with ASC 825, with changes in fair value recorded in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. For instruments measured at fair value, no effective interest rate is presented, as changes in fair value capture all economic returns associated with these debt instruments. Although the stated interest rates on the SPA Portfolio Notes are 10% or 15%, the Company’s effective cost of capital is substantially higher. Each SPA Portfolio Note permits the holder to settle in shares at a value exceeding the stated principal and accrued interest. In addition, each noteholder receives an SPA Portfolio Warrant, and certain holders receive an Incremental Warrant. These settlement features and additional instruments have significant value and materially increase the effective cost of capital above the stated rates. The financial impact of the SPA Portfolio Notes is reflected in the change in fair value and loss on extinguishment line items in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Below is a discussion of the terms, amendments, letter agreements, and financial impacts for each category of debt.
Secured SPA Notes
Overview and Terms
The Secured SPA Notes were issued under the securities purchase agreement (the “Secured SPA”) dated August 14, 2022, with FF Simplicity Ventures LLC (“FFSV”) acting as administrative agent, collateral agent, and purchaser, along with additional purchasers. These senior secured convertible notes are supported by a second lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets and are guaranteed by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.
The Secured SPA Notes bear an annual interest rate of 10%, increasing to 15% if interest is paid in shares of Class A Common Stock. Principal and interest are due at maturity, unless converted earlier pursuant to the Secured SPA Notes’ conversion privileges. Issued at a 10% original issue discount, these notes are convertible into Class A Common Stock at the lesser of a fixed conversion price or 90% of the lowest volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) for the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date. The Secured SPA Notes are subject to full ratchet anti-dilution price protection and as of June 30, 2025 the fixed price conversion price was $1.16. The Secured SPA Notes mature six years from each date of issuance. There were no outstanding Secured SPA Notes, as of June 30, 2025.
In connection with the issuance of the Secured SPA Notes, the Company also granted to each purchaser a warrant (the “Secured SPA Warrants”) to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock equal to 33% of the shares issuable upon conversion of the aggregate principal amount under the Secured SPA Notes funded. The Secured SPA Warrants are subject to the same full ratchet anti-dilution price protection as the Secured SPA Notes. The Secured SPA Warrants are indexed to the Company’s Class A Common Stock and, as such, meet the scope exception in ASC 815-40 to be classified within equity.
The Company elected the fair value option afforded by ASC 825, Financial Instruments, with respect to the Secured SPA Notes because the notes include features, such as a contingently exercisable put option, that meet the definition of an embedded derivative. The Company expenses transaction costs to Change in fair value of notes payable, warrant liabilities, and derivative call options in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The Company also elected to apply the fair value option for all other SPA Portfolio Notes.
Amendments and Modifications
The Secured SPA Notes have undergone several amendments:
Unanimous Written Consents: During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) exercised its authority via a series of written consents (the “Unanimous Written Consents”) to adjust the principal conversion price of the Secured SPA Notes as it considered desirable. The Board chose to reduce the principal conversion price from $29.33 to 105% of the listed market price of the Company’s Common Stock at the close of the trading day on which a conversion notice is delivered. The adjustments to the principal conversion price were temporary in nature and contractually concluded on June 30, 2024. The actions of the Board in the Unanimous Written Consents did not trigger any full ratchet anti-dilution price protection in the Company’s debt and equity securities.
Eleventh and Twelfth Amendments (July 11, 2024): Permitted entry into the Collateralized Loan by subordinating liens securing the Secured SPA Notes to liens under the Collateralized Loan (See Note 9, Other Financing Liabilities, Section Collateralized Loan below).
The Waiver Agreement (August 2, 2024): Revised key financial terms of the Secured SPA Notes and 2023 Unsecured SPA Notes, including elimination of the Make-Whole Amount. The Make-Whole Amount was a provision that entitled noteholders to compensation for the interest they would have received had the notes been held to maturity. Additionally, pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, the holders agreed that accrued interest shall be due at maturity or conversion. Further, the conversion price was reduced to the lesser of (1) the conversion price then in effect, $29.33, subject to full ratchet anti-dilution price protection (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions occurring thereafter) or (2) 90% of the VWAP of the Company’s Common Stock as of the trading day ended immediately prior to the time the conversion notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of the Waiver Agreement will apply to all Secured SPA Notes and 2023 Unsecured SPA
Notes currently issued or issuable in the future pursuant to the Secured SPA and 2023 Unsecured SPA (as defined below).
In accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments, the changes pursuant to the Waiver Agreement qualified as an extinguishment because the change in the fair value of the conversion feature was substantial. Accordingly, the Company recognized a Loss on settlement of notes payable in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the year ended December 31, 2024, calculated as the difference between the reacquisition price of the debt and the net carrying amount of the notes.
Anti-Dilution Adjustments
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company entered into dilutive stock sale and purchase transactions, that triggered the full ratchet anti-dilution price protections embedded in the Secured SPA Notes and Secured SPA Warrants. As a result, the fixed-price conversion price of the Secured SPA Notes and exercise price of the Secured SPA Warrants outstanding prior to such financings was reduced to a price equal to the price per share paid in the dilutive financings.

On September 5, 2024, the Company entered into the Junior Secured SPA, which triggered the full ratchet anti-dilution price protection in the Secured SPA Notes and Secured SPA Warrants. The issuance of the Junior Secured SPA Notes constituted a dilutive issuance, as the stated conversion price of $5.24 was less than the Secured SPA Notes and Secured SPA Warrant exercise price.

On December 21, 2024, the Company entered into the 2024 Unsecured SPA Notes, which triggered the full ratchet anti-dilution price protection in the Secured SPA Notes and Secured SPA Warrant. The issuance of the 2024 Unsecured SPA Notes constituted a dilutive issuance, as the stated conversion price of $1.16 was less than the Secured SPA Notes conversion price and Secured SPA Warrant exercise price.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025 there have not been any dilutive sale and purchase transactions.

Junior Secured SPA Notes
Overview and Terms
Pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 5, 2024 by and between the Company and the investors party thereto (the “Junior Secured SPA”), the Company issued certain secured convertible promissory notes (the “Junior Secured SPA Notes”). These Junior Secured SPA Notes are secured by a second-priority lien on certain assets and bear an annual interest rate of 10%. Principal and interest are payable at maturity or at each conversion date. The notes are convertible along with accrued interest into Class A Common Stock at the lesser of (a) a fixed conversion price or (b) the greater of (1) the floor price, $1.05, or (2) the average VWAP of the common stock for the five previous trading days. Junior Secured SPA Notes are subject to full ratchet anti-dilution price protection and as of June 30, 2025 the fixed price conversion price was $1.16. These notes mature in September 2029.
The Junior Secured SPA Investors were given warrants (the “Junior SPA Warrants”) equal to 100% of the shares issuable upon conversion of the aggregate principal amount under the Junior Secured SPA Note funded. The Junior SPA Warrants are exercisable immediately with a term of five years. The Company issued to the placement agent for the transaction a warrant (the “Placement Agent Warrant”) identical to that of the Junior Secured SPA Investors for 202,768 shares of Common Stock, exercisable immediately. These warrants are subject to the same full ratchet anti-dilution price protection as the Junior Secured SPA Notes. The Company’s Junior SPA Warrants meet the requirements for liability classification pursuant to ASC 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The Junior SPA Warrants could require cash settlement upon events that are considered outside of the control of the Company.
The Junior Secured SPA Investors were issued incremental warrants (the “Junior SPA Incremental Warrants”) to purchase additional Junior Secured SPA Notes up to the amounts originally funded under their original Junior Secured SPA
Note commitments. The Junior SPA Incremental Warrants, presented in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Derivative call options, are exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a one-year term. They allow the purchase of the respective notes at an exercise price equal to the principal amount of the notes issued to the investor, subject to full ratchet anti-dilution price protection, as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations, or similar transactions. See Note 14, Fair Value of Financial Instruments for further details on the Junior SPA Incremental Warrants.
Amendments and Modifications
Letter Agreements: On January 28, 2025, the Company entered into a letter agreement (the “September Letter Agreement”) with certain Junior Secured SPA Investors. These investors agreed not to convert outstanding notes below the initial $5.24 conversion price prior to the Company’s receipt of stockholder approval for the issuance of the Junior Secured SPA Notes, Junior SPA Warrants and Junior SPA Incremental Warrants. In return, the Company agreed to issue “True-Up Shares” after approval to adjust for any pre-approval conversions, based on a formula considering accrued interest and market pricing.

However, the Company must deliver the shares once a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares becomes available.
Anti-Dilution Adjustments
On December 21, 2024, the Company entered into the 2024 Unsecured SPA (as defined below), pursuant to which the Company issued certain 2024 Unsecured SPA Notes to the purchasers party thereto, which triggered the full ratchet anti-dilution price protection in the Junior Secured SPA Notes and Junior Secured SPA Warrants.

Amendments and Modifications
On May 15, 2025, the Company entered into a Waiver and Amendment Agreement (the “SPA Waiver”) with the 2025 March Unsecured SPA Investors. The SPA Waiver modified certain registration and closing conditions provisions under the SPA, as described below.
Under the SPA Waiver, the Investors agreed that the Company is required to register for resale on the initial registration statement (the “Initial Registration Statement”) only the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2025 March Unsecured SPA Notes issued at the first closing. The Company is not required to register on the Initial Registration Statement any shares issuable upon exercise of the 2025 March Unsecured SPA Warrants or 2025 March Unsecured SPA Incremental Warrants or securities issued in subsequent closings. However, the Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a subsequent registration statement to cover (i) the remaining shares underlying the 2025 March Unsecured Notes, 2025 March Unsecured SPA Warrants, and 2025 March Unsecured SPA Incremental Warrants within 45 calendar days after the later of (a) the effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement or (b) the date an Investor requests registration, and (ii) shares issuable under instruments from any subsequent closing within 45 calendar days after the later of (a) the effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement or (b) the applicable closing date.

Under the original terms of the 2025 March Unsecured SPA, if the conditions to a subsequent closing were not satisfied by the scheduled closing date, the closing could be delayed for up to twenty (20) business days. Pursuant to the SPA Waiver, the SPA was amended to provide that if, during such 20-business-day deferral period, the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock is below $1.00, the applicable subsequent closing shall instead occur within twenty (20) business days following the first trading day on which the closing price equals or exceeds $1.00.
In addition, the Company obtained the right, at its sole discretion, to reduce the portion of a 2025 March Unsecured SPA Investor’s purchase amount to be funded at any individual closing, provided that no such investor’s aggregate commitment is reduced.

As a result, as of June 30, 2025, the fixed conversion price and warrant exercise price of the 2025 March Unsecured SPA instruments were $1.22 and $1.46, respectively. This reset triggered the price-based anti-dilution provisions of the 2024 Unsecured SPA Warrants, reducing their exercise price from $1.39 to $1.22.
