Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
On May 28, 2024, Nukkleus Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Settlement Agreement and Stipulation (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Silverback Capital Corporation (“SCC”) to settle outstanding claims owed to SCC. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, SCC has agreed to purchase certain outstanding payables between the Company and designated vendors of the Company totaling $1,118,953.75 (the “Payables”) and will exchange such Payables for a settlement amount payable in shares of common stock of the Company (the “Settlement Shares”). The Settlement Shares shall be priced at 70% of the average of the three lowest trading prices during the five trading day period prior to a share request, which may not be less than $0.05 per share. In the event the Company’s market price decreases to or below $0.75 per share, then either the Company or SCC may declare a default. SCC has agreed that it will not become the beneficial owner of more than 4.99% of common stock of the Company at any point in time. Further, the Settlement Agreement provides that Settlement Shares may not be issued to SCC if such issuance would exceed 19.9% of the outstanding common stock as of May 23, 2024. The Settlement Agreement and the issuance of the Settlement Shares was approved by the Circuit Court of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit Court for Manatee County, Florida (the “Court”) on May 29, 2024 (Case No. 2024 CA 755). The Court entered an Order confirming the fairness of the terms and conditions of the Settlement Agreement and the issuance of the Settlement Shares.
The issuance of the Settlement Shares is being made in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which exempts from registration any securities issued in exchange for one or more outstanding securities, claims or property interests where the terms and conditions of such issuance and exchange are approved by a court of competent jurisdiction after a hearing upon the fairness of such terms and conditions at which all persons to whom it is proposed to issue securities in such exchange have the right to appear.
