Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported, on November 29, 2023, we entered into an agreement (the “CSED”) with Vellar Opportunities Fund Master, Ltd. (“Seller”) for a Cash-Settled Equity Derivative Transaction. (For reference the form of CSED is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 30, 2023.)
Pursuant to the terms of the CSED, the Seller received shares of common stock of our subsidiary African Agriculture, Inc. (“AFRAG”) from a former holder of AFRAG common stock. Upon the occurrence of the Business Combination pursuant to which AFRAG became a wholly owned subsidiary, shares of common stock of AFRAG that were held by the Seller converted into 11,500,000 shares of our common stock in the aggregate. Subject to certain conditions contained in the CSED, the Seller was to provide up to $11,500,000 (the “Additional Funds”) in funds in the aggregate to us in five tranches: (i) the first tranche of $5,750,000 which was funded in accordance with the terms of the CSED, (ii) the second tranche of $1,437,500 which was to be funded 30 days after the first tranche, (iii) the third tranche of $1,437,500 which was to be funded 30 days after the second tranche, (iv) the fourth tranche of $1,437,500 which was to be funded 30 days after the third tranche, and (v) the fifth tranche of $1,437,500 which was to be funded 30 days after the fourth tranche.
On January 9, 2024 the Seller notified us that they were terminating the CSED in accordance with its terms and accordingly would not be advancing any Additional Funds. In accordance with the terms of the CSED, it is not expected that we will have any additional obligations to the Sellers nor do we expect to receive any additional payments or other compensation in the future from the Sellers, although it is possible that based on the performance of our stock price over the Valuation Period as defined in the CSED Seller may in fact be required to make a payment to us under the CSED.
