NOTE 13 - WARRANTS

Preferred Investor Warrants
In conjunction with the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock at closing of the Business Combination, the Company issued 541,667 Preferred Investor Warrants (of which, 104,157 are owned by a related party, Ghaffarian Enterprises, LLC) to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock with an exercise price of $15.00, subject to adjustment. The Company evaluated the terms of the Preferred Investor Warrants and determined they meet the criteria to be classified in shareholders’ equity upon issuance.

The Preferred Investor Warrants were immediately exercisable upon issuance and expire five years from the closing of the Business Combination. The Preferred Investor Warrants include customary cash and cashless exercise provisions and may be exercised on a cashless basis if, at any time after the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, there is not an effective registration statement with respect to the Class A Common Stock. The Preferred Investor Warrants have the same terms and conditions as the Public Warrants. The Preferred Investor Warrants do not entitle the holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to exercise.

As result of the Private Placement Transaction on September 5, 2023 discussed in Note 12 and in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation, the Preferred Investor Warrants exercise price was reduced from $15.00 to $11.50 per share and the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Preferred Investor Warrants was proportionally increased to 706,522.

As of June 30, 2026, there have been no exercises of the Preferred Investor Warrants.

Conversion Warrants
In connection with the January 2024 Bridge Loan Conversion, the Company agreed to issue to the Guarantor, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, (i) a new unregistered Series A Common Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,150,780 shares of, at the Guarantor’s election, Class A Common Stock (at an exercise price per share equal to $2.57 per share), Class C Common Stock (at an exercise price per share equal to $0.0001 per share), or a combination thereof, and a term of 5 years, (the “Conversion Series A Warrant”) and (ii) a new unregistered Series B Common Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,150,780 shares of, at the guarantor’s election, Class A Common Stock (at an exercise price per share equal to $2.57 per share), Class C Common Stock (at an exercise price per share equal to $0.0001 per share), or a combination thereof, and a term of 18 months (the “Conversion Series B Warrant”), collectively (the “Conversion Warrants”). On May 31, 2024, the guarantor assigned the Conversion Warrants to a third party investor in a private transaction. Pursuant to the assignment to a third party investor, the Conversion Warrants are no longer exercisable for Class C Common Stock. All other terms related to the Conversion Warrants remain the same as previously discussed. Pursuant to the guidance under ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” the Company determined that the Conversion Warrants should be recorded as liabilities as of the issuance date and March 31, 2024 and subsequently determined that they meet the criteria in ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, to be classified as a derivative liability as of May 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, initially measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings in other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

During the period from June 5, 2024 to June 7, 2024, the investor exercised 300,000 Conversion Series B Warrants, resulting in the issuance of an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock. During the period from November 21, 2024 to November 29, 2024, the investor exercised the remaining 3,850,780 Conversion Series B Warrants, resulting in the issuance of an equal number of Class A Common Stock. As of June 30, 2026, there have been no exercises of the Conversion Series A Warrants.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized a loss of $21.0 million from the change in fair value of the Conversion Series A Warrant liability in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the six months
ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized a gain of $30.0 million from the change in fair value of the Conversion Series A Warrant liability in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 16 for additional information on the fair value measurement of the Conversion Series A Warrants.
