Streeterville Capital, LLC Convertible Note
On October 23, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company would sell, and the Investor would purchase, a secured convertible promissory note in the original principal amount of $2,890,000 (the “Note”) for a net purchase price of $2,600,000 (after deducting an original issue discount of $260,000, and payment of $30,000 for the Investor’s legal, accounting, due diligence, asset monitoring, and other transaction expenses).
The SPA included customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and customary closing conditions. The SPA grants the Investor (i) the right to fund up to an additional $5,000,000 to the Company, with the Company’s consent, through the date that is six months following repayment of the Note in full (the “Reinvestment Right”), and (ii) the exclusive right, on customary market terms, to enter into an equity line of credit or other similar financing arrangement with the Company for at least $20,000,000, through the date that is one year following the Purchase Price Date (defined below). Pursuant the SPA, Alpha Modus, Corp. was required to guarantee all of the Company’s obligations under the Note and related transaction documents pursuant to a guaranty agreement (the “Guaranty”), and the Note will also be secured by security agreements (the “Security Agreements”) by and between the Investor and both the Company and Alpha Modus, Corp., granting the Investor first priority security interests in all assets of the Company, as well as all assets of Alpha Modus, Corp., including all of Alpha Modus’ intellectual property (and including Alpha Modus’ patent portfolio) pursuant to a separate intellectual property security agreement (the “IP Security Agreement”). Additionally, the Company and Alpha Modus (collectively the “Borrowers”), and William Alessi, his entity, Janbella Group, LLC, and the trusts deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Alessi (each a “Capital Party” and collectively the “Capital Parties”), were required to execute at closing a subordination and voting agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) all of the Borrowers’ indebtedness and obligations to each Capital Party were subordinated to Investor, (ii) all security interests of any Capital Party were subordinate to Investor’s security interests, (iii) the Borrowers would not make any payments to any Capital Party, (iv) none of the Capital Parties would accelerate any subordinated debt or equity, (v) and no Capital Party would convert or exchange their preferred stock of the Company into Common Stock, until such time as the Investor had been fully paid and all financing agreements between the Investor and the Borrowers were terminated.
The Note matured 18 months following the date the purchase price is delivered to the Company (the “Purchase Price Date”), accrued interest of 10% per annum, was prepayable (after providing five trading days’ notice) at a 20% premium to the then-outstanding balance of the Note, and was convertible into Class A common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company as described below. Within 30 days of the Purchase Price Date, the Company was obligated to file a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC registering a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note, and such registration statement was filed as described below.
The Note was convertible at the election of the Investor into shares of Common Stock at any time following the earlier of the effective date of the registration statement described above or one year following the Purchase Price Date, at a conversion price equal to 90% multiplied by the lowest daily volume-weighted average price during the five trading days preceding conversion, and provided that (i) the Investor may not convert the Note into shares of Common Stock to the extent that such conversion would result in the Investor’s beneficial ownership of Common Stock being in excess of 4.99% (or 9.99% if the Company’s market capitalization is less than $10 million), and provided that (ii) the Note is not convertible into a total cumulative number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares of Common Stock permitted by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 (the “Exchange Cap”). Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Company was required to, within 120 days of the Purchase Price Date, seek shareholder approval of the Note and the issuance of shares of Common Stock, issuable upon conversion of the Note and pursuant to the Reinvestment Right, in excess of the Exchange Cap (the “Shareholder Approvals”). If such shareholder approval is not obtained within 120 days, the Company was required to continue to seek shareholder approval every three months thereafter until shareholder approval is obtained. Pursuant to the Subordination Agreement, each Capital Party was required to vote all of their shares of Company stock in favor of the Shareholder Approvals. Under the SPA, the Company was required to initially reserve shares of its Common Stock for issuance to the Investor under the Note, and the Company was required to add additional shares to the reserve in increments of shares when requested by the Investor if at the time of the request the number of shares being held in reserve is less than three times the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the outstanding balance under the Note divided by the applicable conversion price at that time.
On December 12, 2024, the Company amended the SPA (the “Amended SPA”) to revise the terms of the Note. Pursuant to the Amended SPA, the Note was not convertible below a floor price of $4.00/share, but if the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock is less than the floor price for ten consecutive trading days, the Company is required to begin making monthly payments under the Note on the date that is 90 days following the original funding date.
On or about December 13, 2024, the Company issued the Note to the Investor, the Note was funded on or about December 16, 2024, and the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was subsequently less than the $4.00 floor price for more than ten consecutive trading days, which, under the terms of the Amended SPA, would have required the Company to begin making monthly payments under the Note, with those monthly payments commencing on March 16, 2025, and with those monthly payments being equal to 120% multiplied by the outstanding balance divided by the lesser of 6 or the number of months remaining until the Note’s maturity date.
On January 27, 2025, the Company and the Investor entered into an amendment to the Note providing that (i) the Company was not required to begin making monthly payments under the Note until May 16, 2025, (ii) the monthly payments will equal $485,000 plus all accrued but unpaid interest, multiplied by 120%, and (iii) the Company would pay to the Investor 50% of all proceeds received by the Company from any equity line of credit or similar arrangement within one trading day of receipt by the Company.
On April 28, 2025, the Company and the Investor entered into a second amendment to the Note (the “Second Amendment”) providing that (i) the 20% prepayment penalty under the Note was eliminated, but the outstanding balance of the Note was increased to $3,597,502 (i.e., the outstanding balance under the Note as of April 28, 2025, plus the prepayment penalty of 20% as of April 28, 2025), (ii) the Company would have the right on up to three occasions to extend the monthly payment start date for one month, with the outstanding balance automatically increasing by one percent for each extension, (iii) the monthly payments would equal $582,000 plus all accrued but unpaid interest, (iv) the floor price was reduced to $1.25, (v) the Investor’s beneficial ownership limitation was increased to 9.99%, (vi) the Company agreed to hold a stockholder meeting within 60 days to approve the issuances to the Investor under the Note and under an equity line of credit agreement with the Investor in excess of the Exchange Cap (as such term was defined in the Note), (vii) the Company agreed to sell the Investor shares of common stock (the “Pre-Delivery Shares”) for $125, which Pre-Delivery Shares shall be used by the Investor only as pre-delivery shares under the Note and a future equity line of credit agreement between the Company and the Investor, (viii) the Company agreed to file a registration statement to register the Pre-Delivery Shares and other shares of common stock issuable to the Investor upon conversion of the Note, and (ix) the Investor provided its written consent to the Company entering into the Patent Monetization Agreement and Option Agreement described below.
A registration statement registering shares for resale by the Investor was filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to the Company’s obligations under the Second Amendment to register Pre-Delivery Shares and other shares of common stock issuable to the Investor upon conversion of the Note (of which Pre-Delivery Shares and other conversion shares were registered for resale in that registration statement). That registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on May 23, 2025. On May 29, 2025, the Investor converted $767,000 of the Note into shares of Company common stock. On June 11, 2025, the Investor converted $125,000 of the Note into shares of Company common stock. On July 10, 2025, the Investor converted $162,500 of the Note into shares of Company common stock. On July 16, 2025, the Investor converted $150,000 of the Note into shares of Company common stock. On July 23, 2025, the Investor converted an aggregate of $2,545,500 of the Note into shares of Company common stock, leaving a balance due to the Investor under the Note of approximately $11,312, which the Company paid on July 23, 2025, satisfying the note in full. On or about July 25, 2025, the Company repurchased the Pre-Delivery Shares from the Investor for $125, and on or about August 6, 2025, the Pre-Delivery Shares were returned to the Company by the Investor and cancelled.

The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $598,324 in relation to this note amendment. On April 28, 2025, the Company issued shares of common stock as financing incentive in connection with the amendment. These shares were valued at $ per share for a total value of $1,437,500.
