NOTE 8 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the Company and Dante Carravagio entered into a side agreement in connection with his purchase of 400,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at $2.00 per share (the “Side Agreement”). The Side Agreement granted the holder a one year right to require the Company to repurchase his shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $15.00 per share (the “Put Option Right”) in cash. The Put Option Right becomes exercisable upon the shares being considered freely tradeable and the holder not being an insider of the Company as defined by the SEC.
