17. Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through May 15, 2024. The following events occurred after the three months ended March 31, 2024:

 

On April 29, 2024, 13,300 stock options issued during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were forfeited with the termination of the employee with the Company.
   
 16,667 RSU units were granted onto a Contractor on May 1, 2024 in consideration for services rendered in Q1 2024.
   
 On May 6, 2024, 1,477,892 pre-funded warrants issued during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were exercised for 1,477,892 shares of common stock for $148.
   
On May 8, 2024, the Company announced its receipt of a major grant from New York State Excelsior Jobs Program worth up to $2.8 million. The grant, following a strategic low-cost power award from New York Power Authority (NYPA) in April 2024, signifies additional state-level investment in the Company’s expanding operations. With growth exceeding NY State’s forecasts, the Company expects to create up to or over 280 new jobs from 2025 to 2030 and if achieved will receive cash benefits for the creation of these jobs, amounting to $2.8 million received over the next 10 years.
   
 On May 14, 2024, the Company and Worksport New York Operations Corporation (“Worksport New York”) entered into an Omnibus Amendment of Loan Documents (the “Loan Amendment”) with Northeast Bank (the “Lender”) in connection with that certain secured loan agreement, dated May 4, 2022 (the “Loan Agreement”), by and among the Company, as the guarantor (the “Guarantor”), Worksport New York, as the borrower (the “Borrower”), and the Lender in connection with the Company’s purchase of its 152,847 square foot facility and 18 acres of land in West Seneca, New York on May 6, 2022 for a total purchase price of $8,150,000. Pursuant to the Loan Amendment, effective as of May 10, 2024, the Lender extended the initial maturity date of the Loan from May 10, 2024 to August 10, 2024 (the “Extended Maturity Date”). The Company also agreed to pay the Lender an extension fee of $106,000 (the “Extension Fee”) which was deemed fully earned as of the date of the Loan Amendment. However, the Lender agreed to postpone payment of the Extension Fee until the occurrence of (i) the Loan not being repaid in full by or on the Extended Maturity Date; or (ii) Loan being accelerated following an Event of Default or Termination Date (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement). If the Loan is repaid in full on or prior to the Extended Maturity Date, the Lender has agreed to waive the Extension Fee. In addition to the Extension Fee, the Company agreed to pay the Lender an exit fee of $106,000 (the “Exit Fee”) in the event the Loan is not repaid in full on or prior to the Extended Maturity Date or if the Loan has been accelerated following an Event of Default or in connection with a Termination Event (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement). If the Loan is repaid in full on or prior to the Extended Maturity Date (and not as a result of an acceleration following a Termination Event), the Company will not be required to pay the Exit Fee.
